Abstract: A system and method for reconciling conflicting identifiers from a first entity and a second entity is disclosed. The first entity and the second entity may be associated with a contract for goods to be delivered to an address of an organization. The system and method may include receiving, from the first entity via a first user interface or the second entity via a second user interface, respective files including respective identifiers. The system and method may include updating, in a database, an entry associated with the organization based on the received identifiers such that an organization address identifier assigned by the first entity is associated with an account identifier assigned by the second entity.

Abstract: Batteries according to embodiments of the present technology may include a battery cell having a longitudinal body section and a lateral body section extending from and normal to the longitudinal body section. An intersection of the longitudinal body section and the lateral body section may define an interior corner. The battery may also include a pouch extending about the battery cell. The pouch may define a seal where a first section of the pouch is sealed to a second section of the pouch externally to the battery cell about a plurality of sides of the battery cell including at the interior corner. The seal may be folded against the pouch and coupled with the pouch along multiple sides of the battery cell.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of an adsorbent to reduce or suppress the pathogenicity or virulence of Clostridium bacteria in vitro, ex vivo or in vivo. The invention may be used in any mammal or environment, and is particularly effective to suppress the pathogenicity or virulence of Clostridium difficile.

Abstract: A hitch assembly is disclosed for use with endless track land vehicles that allows an implement mounted by a three-point hitch arrangement up to about 15 degrees arcing movement off the longitudinal axis oriented in the direction of travel of the land vehicle. A pivotal mounting means is connected to two horizontal arms which are joined at the rear by another member. The mounting means and connecting arms form a four-sided polygonal structure which can be raised or lowered by a hydraulic ram since the arms are pivotally connected at the corners. Finally, a telescoping linkage assembly, after the hitch assembly has been raised through 75 percent of its travel, urges the implement mounting means on the rear vertical connecting arm into a common, pre-selected travel position.
