A customized interactive computing environment may allow for a customized interactive user experience. The interactive computing environment may be defined by session parameters to customize a session of the interactive computing environment. The session parameters may include customized interactive user objectives that may be defined by a user. Each objective may be defined with a number of points awarded to a user for completing the objective. Real-time interactive user data may be received from user devices for completion of the custom objectives. Custom profile information may be defined by a user to customize user interfaces provided to users that log into a session of the interactive computing environment. Data analysis about the session and/or the defined objectives may be generated and displayed to users to indicate progress or other data about the session.

A stabilized, natural biogenerated cheddar flavor component, which may be used to prepare food products having flavor characteristics of traditional style cheeses, and a process for manufacturing the biogenerated cheddar flavor component is provided. The cheese flavor component is stabilized against the growth of spoilage or pathogenic microorganisms therein. The stabilized cheese flavor component is achieved by addition of a bacteriocin source as part of the fermentation process that accelerates at least part of the fermentation time needed for flavor development. Inclusion of secondary microbial barriers are also provided for. Therefore, production times can be significantly reduced for the flavor component of the present invention without loss of flavor and while improving microbial stability. The flavor component can be used in process cheese, process cheese-type products, or other cheeses. The flavor component can also be used as a natural flavoring system in other food products. Methods of making and using the flavor component in food products, such as cheese products, are also provided.

Methods for rapid production and usage of biogenerated flavors

The invention provides for the manufacture of cheese products enhanced with a natural, biogenerated flavoring system. The natural flavoring system described herein may be used with various types of cheese and dairy products. In one embodiment, the system may be used in the production of flavor enhanced fresh cheese or cream cheese. In another embodiment, the system may be used in the production of low-fat cheese products, such as low-fat cream cheese.

Fresh cheese products containing biogenerated flavor components and methods for producing

Methods and apparatus for maintaining a quality of a Raman medium in a Raman conversion cell. In various examples, a flow velocity of the Raman medium is tailored based on a spatial nonuniformity of heat deposition resulting from the Raman conversion in the cell. In particular, in one example, the flow velocity of the Raman medium may be tailored to be higher where the heat deposition/temperature rise is larger and smaller elsewhere in the cell. This type of flow velocity profile reduces the overall required volumetric flow of the Raman medium in the cell without significantly affecting a quality of the Raman medium.

A stabilized cheese flavoring system which can be used to prepare very different cheeses having desired flavor profiles in which the flavoring system is stabilized against the growth of spoilage or pathogenic microorganisms therein, while flavor development can be accelerated in one more of its flavor components thereof. The stabilized flavoring systems are obtained by addition of a bacteriocin source as part of fermentation process that accelerates the fermentation time needed for flavor development in one or more of its flavor components, and in at least a sulfur-cheddary component thereof in one embodiment. Therefore, production times can be significantly reduced for one or more of the flavor components of the flavoring system of the present invention without loss of flavor and while improving its microbial stability.

The present disclosure is directed to electrical switches that utilize conductors that are woven onto loading fibers and a mating conductor that has a contact mating surface. Each conductor has at least one contact point. The loading fibers are capable of delivering a contact force at each contact point of the conductors. Electrical connections are established between the contact points of conductors and the contact mating surface of the mating conductor when the conductor-loading fiber weave is engaged with the mating conductor and the electrical connections are terminated when the conductor-loading fiber weave is disengaged from the mating conductor.

Multiple-contact woven electrical switches

A multiple-contact woven connector comprising at least one conductor woven onto a plurality of loading fibers. Each conductor has at least one contact point. The loading fibers are capable of delivering a contact force at the contact points of the conductors. The connector may further include mating conductors having a contact mating surfaces. Electrical connections can be established between the contact points of the conductors and the contact mating surfaces of the mating conductors. The contact mating surfaces may be curved. In exemplary embodiments, the contact mating surfaces are convex. The multiple-contact woven connectors of the present disclosure can be utilized as power connectors or, alternatively, as data connectors.

Woven multiple-contact connectors

A contact connector is provided that has at least one loading fiber and a plurality of conductors. Each conductor may have at least one contact point. Each conductor may contact a single loading fiber, and each loading fiber may be capable of delivering a contact force at each contact point. In one example, the connector may be a power connector having a power circuit and a return circuit. In another example, the connector may be a data connector having at least one signal path.
