20160042467 | PROFIT GAUGE FOR COMMERCIAL VEHICLES - Profit for commercial vehicles often consists of two major factors, the amount the vehicle is reimbursed for transporting cargo minus the cost of actually transporting the cargo. The reimbursement usually consists of two main components, (1) the reimbursement rate based on distance driven and (2) the fuel surcharge rate, also based on distance driven. The actual cost is made up of both fixed and distance based costs. The over-riding cost is for fuel. The invention uses settings made by the vehicle operator to a computing device which is connected to sensors in the vehicle. The computing device uses the inputs from the operator and measurements from the vehicle to display a continuously updated value of profit (or loss) to the vehicle operator as a real currency amount per unit time. The practical result is that the operator is able to make adjustments such as speed and gearing and use the displayed feedback to optimize the profit or minimize the loss for the current driving conditions. | 02-11-2016 |

20120128646 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR THE TREATMENT OF AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE - The present invention is related to the development and treatment of autoimmune disease. Autoimmune diseases can result from tissue damage caused by the activation of autoreactive T cells by autoantigens. For example, peptide fragments of naturally occurring proteins (i.e., for example, chromogranin A) may activate autoreactive T cells that result in the destruction of pancreatic β islet cells, possibly by the release of inflammatory cytokines (i.e., for example, interferon-γ). One naturally occurring biologically active chromogranin A peptide fragment, WE14, may comprise a diabetogenic autoantigen. Truncation and extension analysis of WE14 indicates that the stimulating binding register of WE14 occupies only half of the mouse IA | 05-24-2012 |
