I guess you're showing something like the progress bar in the journal
frame, too?

Some random suggestions (too off the wall, probably):
- fill the appropriate percent of the journal's pie slice background
- separate gas [petrol] gauge in the Home view, if it's important
and actionable enough
- fill up the inside of the Home pie (where the XO's icon is)
