Abstract: A treatment composition for, among other things, treating human skin. These compositions are stable, particulate containing, printer compositions that have one or more particulate suspending agents. The suspending agents can be present in a concentration of from about 0.1% to about 5%, by weight. The particles in the particulate composition have a combined Particle Size Distribution D50 in the range of about 200 ?m to about 500 ?m, and preferably the compositions have a zeta potential of negative 20 or less, or greater than positive 20. The particulate suspending agent is preferably a polyacrylate composition, even more preferably sodium polyacrylate. The particles can be present in a concentration of from about 1% to about 30.0%, by weight, and preferably the particles in the particulate composition have a combined Particle Size Distribution D90 of less than about 1 ?m.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention extend a network protocol that is limited to a local area network (LAN) and enable it to function across the Internet. A LAN protocol is limited to providing services or resources to users within the same LAN. Embodiments of the invention make it possible for those services and resources to be available to users beyond the LAN. Embodiments of the invention also concern establishing connectivity without discovery for local area network protocols.

Abstract: A system in which computer content is encoded at low latency and distributed to one or more client devices and in which user gestures on the client device are translated into a digital representation of the computer's native input format, thereby allowing the client device to control the computer. A method of capturing screen data on a desktop system, packaging the captured content, streaming the content to one or more client device, decoding the content on the client-side, displaying the decoded content on the client device, accepting user input, transmitting the user input to the desktop system, translating the input into a native format, and controlling the desktop system using the translated user input.

Abstract: A platform and service are provided that allow a user to have and use a personal, e.g. virtual, private cloud to which the user grants access to a defined group of users across multiple, different types of devices.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for synchronizing different environments in response to a change in one of the environments. The term environment encompasses operating systems, virtual machines, and states. The synchronization functions when one environment controls a master file or the environments access a shared folder. The synchronization is one-way or two-ways. The synchronization applies to digital photos, personal information management data, shared maps and directions, documents, configuration data, network settings, browser data sync, account information for accessing the client, and local and web applications.

Abstract: An embedded operating system (OS) displays a user interface (UI) without waiting for the host OS to fully load. In one embodiment, the UI comprises icons for applications, advertisements, and browsers already configured with a URL. In one embodiment, the pre-configured browsers are set by the manufacturer. In another embodiment, the user can specify pre-configured browsers. In one embodiment, the icon owner pays for displaying an icon. The icon can be a static or a dynamic icon. Dynamic icons are downloaded from a file server.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a topical skin care composition having improved aesthetics containing a pentapeptide, a tacky solvent, and a dermatologically acceptable delivery system containing the tacky solvent in combination with a silicone elastomer and a carrier for the elastomer. The present invention also relates to methods of using such compositions to regulate the condition of mammalian skin while retaining good aesthetics.

Abstract: Method of exfoliating mammalian skin comprising the step of using a foam applicator to apply a personal care composition to delicate mammalian skin, wherein the foam applicator comprises a material selected from the group consisting of polyester, polyurethane, polyether, polyethylene, polystyrene, cross-linked polyethylene, and mixtures thereof, and has a porosity of from about 10 to about 110 pores per square inch; and wherein the personal care composition comprises a dermatologically-acceptable carrier in the form of an emulsion.

Abstract: Stable skin care compositions comprising dehydroacetic acid and a dermatologically acceptable carrier. The dermatologically acceptable carrier comprises at least one oil, said oil having a solubility in water of about 5% or less and a solubility parameter of from about 7 to about 15, and the dehydroacetic acid is distributed primarily into said oil. The compositions have a pH of about 4.5 and below.
