The present invention comprises a method, and corresponding system, apparatus and memory for trading energy commitments to reduce or increase energy demand (a demand response commitment), to increase or reduce energy production (a supply response commitment) upon demand or to deliver or to not deliver energy (an energy delivery commitment). Such commitments are made available by energy consumers, energy generators and energy delivery companies, respectively, to an entity that provides consideration for these energy commitments and trades them as fungible commodities to energy market participants. In one embodiment, the present invention comprises a method for trading energy commitments to reduce or increase energy consumption, to increase or reduce energy generation, or to deliver energy, comprising receiving a plurality of multi-year energy commitments; providing consideration for each of the multi-year energy commitments; and trading at least one of the plurality of energy commitments upon demand.

A functional peptide is encoded by SEQ ID NO:1. This peptide is capable of inducing dorsal and neural tissue development in vertebrates. The peptide is a member of the TGF-. beta. superfamily, and can be prepared in therapeutic applications to treat congenital conditions or degenerative disorders of the nervous system and in compositions useful for inducing growth of bone.

A novel and soluble polypeptide that is highly conserved among vertebrates has been discovered, which is designated "noggin. " The properties of noggin include dorsal growth inducing activity. Noggin and activin act synergistically to produce dorsal mesoderm. Noggin's cDNA has been cloned. Several expression systems have been successfully used to express biologically active noggin. Amino acid sequences representing completely conserved portions as between frog noggin and mouse noggin are: QMWLWSQTFCPVLY (SEQ ID NO:3); RFWPRYVKVGSC (SEQ ID NO:4); SKRSCSVPEGMVCK (SEQ ID NO:5); LRWRCQRR (SEQ ID NO:6); and, ISECKCSC (SEQ ID NO:7).

This invention generally relates to compositions and method of producing diluted hypohalous acid and hypohalous acid vapor. These compositions can be used to treat allergen containing surfaces, hard surfaces, food contact surfaces, hospital surfaces, food surfaces, kitchen surfaces, bathroom surfaces, human surfaces, animal surfaces, children's items, outdoor surfaces, soft surfaces, and medical instruments. These compositions can be converted to solid particulate or granular compositions. These compositions can be put into a variety of containers which preserve the stability. These compositions can be used to treat allergens and molds and as part of a mold detection system. These compositions can be dispersed into the air to enable microbiological control.

This invention relates to packaging for dilute hypochlorite and hypochlorous acid compositions to produce stable compositions. Container materials can be mulilayer with additives such as opacifiers, colorants, and UV inhibitors in the intermediate or outer layers. Additionally, labels with opacifiers, colorants, and UV inhibitors can improve stability. These compositions can be used to treat allergen containing surfaces, hard surfaces, food contact surfaces, hospital surfaces, food surfaces, kitchen surfaces, bathroom surfaces, human surfaces, animal surfaces, military equipment, transportation equipment, children's items, plant surfaces, seeds, outdoor surfaces, soft surfaces, air, wounds, and medical instruments.
