Abstract: An on-board vehicle diagnostic device in communication with a vehicle is provided. The device includes a housing formed from a suitable material. The housing includes a plurality of connector pins. The pins are formed to interconnect with an OBD port, such as any OBD-II port found in a vehicle. The pins are additionally formed such that they engage the OBD-II port and remain connected to the port. The OBD-II port is located in the vehicle, and is in communication with an on-board vehicle processor. Also provided within the housing are a wireless transmitter and a wireless receiver. The wireless receiver may be configured to receive, from the on-board vehicle processor, vehicle diagnostic pin-readouts. The pin-readouts may include location information, such as GPS coordinates. The wireless receiver may be further configured to receive geofence coordinate information, which may correspond to a geographical area.

Abstract: An apparatus for effecting and controlling the movement of a window covering member between different positions in response to a disturbance of the window covering. Also, an apparatus for assisting the manipulation of a window covering by way of potential energy stored in a spring. Also a torque sending device having a design that is insensitive to component tolerances.

Abstract: A composite jewelry stone is provided. The composite jewelry stone includes a first half stone having a mating edge and an opposing apex and a second half stone having a mating edge and an opposing apex. A baguette having a first mating edge and a second, opposing mating edge is provided. The baguette is mounted between the first and second half stones such that the first half stone mating edge is in alignment with the first mating edge of the baguette and the second half stone mating edge is in alignment with the second mating edge of the baguette.

Abstract: A composite stone which includes a first half-stone having a mating edge with a first length and a second half-stone having a mating edge with a second length which is approximately equal to the first length is provided. At least a first baguette and a second baguette are mounted between the first and second half-stones. Each of the at least first and second baguettes has a first mating edge and a second opposing mating edge which have a third length that is approximately equal to the first length. The first mating edge of the first baguette is generally aligned with the mating edge of the first half-stone. The second mating edge of the second baguette is generally aligned with mating edge of the second half-stone. The second mating edge of the first baguette faces the first mating edge of the second baguette.
