Abstract: Novel tools and techniques for generating and/or transmitting dynamic electronic mail messages, which can include content that is generated at the time the email message is opened. In some cases, an email message will include a reference to a resource on a server, and a standard email client can request that resource with the reference, either automatically or upon prompting by the user. Based on the nature of the request, a number of properties or characteristics of the request (and/or of the circumstances under which the email message is opened or loaded for display) can be derived or identified. Further, demographic information about the recipient can be identified. Based on these characteristics and/or demographic information, customized content can be generated and transmitted for display, e.g., in body of the electronic message.

Abstract: A normally sealed multi-cell, lead-acid battery of the starved electrolyte type has each cell filled with a metered quantity of electrolyte by drawing down a vacuum on one or more of the cells; releasing the vacuum; and simultaneously drawing, through a filling port in the lid of each cell under vacuum, the metered quantity of electrolyte. Each cell houses a cell pack comprising at least one porous positive plate; at least one porous negative plate; and a porous, relatively fragile microfiber glass mat separator interleaved between the plates. A deflector platform, integral with the lid and having a deflecting surface, is positioned between the filling port and the cell pack of each cell of the battery. During filling, the electrolyte impinges upon the deflecting surface and is deflected laterally so that the electrolyte does not directly impinge upon and damage the cell pack.
