Title: Method of repairing or restoring damaged or imperfect hair
Inventor: KODAMA YOSHIHIRO
IPC: A61K8/02
Filed: 2001-11-26
Abstract: Damaged hair shafts or defective hair shafts are treated by: (a) supplying moisture to the hair shafts to open the flaps in the cuticle layer; (b) coating the hair shafts with amino acids or peptides effective in supplying nutrients to the hair; and (c) inserting the hair shafts between heat plates and heating to thereby compress the hair shafts and accelerate the penetration of the amino acids or peptides into the cuticle layer, followed by closing the opening among flaps. The amino acids or peptides, which have penetrated into the hair, supply nutrients to the cortex. The hair shafts may be subjected to hair styling.

Abstract: On the outside of the toilet seat tank wall, water forms. This water comes from the condensation of the air moisture. This moisture is higher when a person is taking a shower. It is also significant during food cooking. After flushing the toilet, new cold water coming from the underground fills the tank and cools its wall. The air moisture condenses on the outside of the tank wall and drops on the floor requiring a frequent mopping and sometimes damages the ground. Another quantity of moisture condenses on the outside of the bowl wall.   In this invention the dropping of water on the floor is completely or mostly reduced by changing the design of the tank and the seat.

Title: Short contact time catalytic sulfur recovery system for removing h2s from a waste gas stream
Inventor: KELLER ALFRED E
IPC: C01B17/04
Filed: 2001-12-18
Abstract: An apparatus and process for recovering elemental sulfur from a H2S-containing waste gas stream are disclosed, along with a method of making a preferred catalyst for catalyzing the process. The apparatus preferably comprises a short contact time catalytic partial oxidation reactor (10), a cooling zone (30), and a sulfur condenser (50). According to a preferred embodiment of the process, a mixture of H2S and O2 contacts the catalyst very briefly (i.e, less than about 200 milliseconds). Some preferred catalyst devices comprise a reduced metal, such as Pt, Rh, or Pt-Rh, and a lanthanide metal oxide, or a pre-carbided form of the metal. The preferred apparatus and process are capable of operating at superatmospheric pressure and improve the efficiency of converting H2S to sulfur, which will reduce the cost and complexity of construction and operation of a sulfur recovery plant used for waste gas cleanup.

Title: Secure method and system for biometric verification
Inventor: JOHNSON HAROLD J
IPC: G06F21/32
Filed: 2002-06-28
Abstract: There is a need in the computer software and data industries to protect content from unauthorized access to private information. Alphanumeric passwords have been shown to offer very weak protection. Biometrics (personal traits such as fingerprints and hand-written signatures) offer superior protection, but still have a number of weaknesses. The most significant weakness is that there is no existing way to protect the stored biometric data itself; and once a person's fingerprint data has been obtained by an attacker, the use of that fingerprint can no longer be considered secure. The invention solves the problem by securing the access software application that manages the biometric data using tamper-resistant encoding techniques. These tamper-resistant encoding techniques include: data-flow, control-flow, mass-data and white-box encoding.
