| 20080198524 | ABSORPTION GAS ARRESTOR SYSTEM - The subject application relates to a gas arrestor system(s) and/or methodology that facilitate sensing and shutting down a gas-burning appliance via a circuit that can perform both functions. In particular, the system and method can detect specific gases and at specific concentration levels by way of a sensory-power circuit. The circuit performs vapor detection and provides power to various ignition-related portions of the appliance. When gas or gas vapors are detected in the ambient air of the circuit and satisfy a threshold for that particular type of vapor, the circuit is shorted which results in a power loss to at least the ignition-related portions of the appliance. As a result, undesirable ignition of such vapors is mitigated. | 08-21-2008 |

| 20100169187 | Revenue raising auction processes for public goods - A computer system for a pricing and auction process allows private enterprise firms to establish an individual price for each consumer paying in to support delivery of the same units of a public good. The process solicits bids from individuals who value a public good, while reducing each individual's incentives to free ride, thereby increasing their incentives to bid or offer a payment that approaches their full value for each, successive unit of the good. Examples include farmers selling the services of land for wildlife habitat, farmers altering production processes to reduce pesticides and nutrients and increase local water quality, particularly during transition from technologically intensive farming to organic farming, or businesses established to help neighborhoods and communities become carbon neutral in a global economy. The process benefits profit or non-profit organizations supporting conservation such as wetland and salt marsh restoration or restoration of endangered species habitat. | 07-01-2010 |

| 20110053999 | 4-METHYLPYRAZOLE FORMULATIONS FOR INHIBITING ETHANOL INTOLERANCE - Provided herein are methods, compositions and formulations to prevent or ameliorate ethanol intolerance, reduce or ameliorate symptoms associated with acetaldehyde accumulation accompanying ethanol consumption, or reduce the risk of diseases or disorders caused by acetaldehyde accumulation, comprising administering 4-MP, or physiologically acceptable salts thereof, to subjects with reduced or absent aldehyde dehydrogenase subtype 2 (ALDH2) activity. | 03-03-2011 |

| 20090313090 | RESOLVING DEMAND AND SUPPLY IMBALANCES - A storage medium for resolving demand and supply imbalances is provided. The storage medium includes machine-readable computer program code and instructions for causing a computer to implement a method. The method includes identifying an excess component inventory liability or constraint in supply capability for an end product by matching current buying patterns for the end product against inventory liability and supply capability based on a previous demand forecast. Where excess component inventory liability exists, the method includes: refocusing the excess component inventory liability by determining alternative end products that use components identified in the excess component inventory liability; and executing sales activities for enticing sales of the alternative end products. Where constrained supply capability exists, the method includes determining alternative end products that are functionally equivalent to those in the constrained supply capability, and executing sales activities for enticing sales of functionally equivalent alternative end products. | 12-17-2009 |
| 20100010875 | RESOLVING DEMAND AND SUPPLY IMBALANCES - A system for resolving demand and supply imbalances includes a supply liability reduction process (SLRP) executable upon identifying an excess component inventory liability. The SLRP includes: a procurement and development assessment sub-process that represents a greatest magnitude of liability; a liability council assessment sub-process that represents a magnitude of liability less than that of the procurement and development assessment sub-process; a sales activities sub-process that represents a magnitude of liability less than that of the liability council assessment sub-process; and a liability write-off sub-process that represents a magnitude of liability less than that of the sales activities sub-process. The SLRP performs one or more sub-processes in an order of the magnitude of liability. The sub-process reduces the excess component inventory liability by: determining alternative end products that use components identified in the excess component inventory liability; and executing for enticing sales of alternative end products. | 01-14-2010 |
