A sports simulator network with reward potential. In one embodiment, the system includes a first sports simulator and a second sports simulator. The simulators are configured to allow a plurality of participants to play a sports scenario upon payment. Each participant of the sports simulators achieves a score for the sports scenario. The first sports simulator is configured to communicate with the second sports simulator to determine a winner with a best score for the sports scenario between the first sports simulator and the second sports simulator. When this happens, at least a portion of the cumulative amount of the payments is aggregated to pay a reward to the winner.

Embodiments of a radiation detector and subassemblies thereof are provided having a scintillator with a face and a reflector constructed and arranged to redirect a majority of light leaving the face of the scintillator at an angle within a range of 45 to 135 degrees compared to the direction in which the light was traveling when it left the face. In other embodiments a method is provided including receiving radiation into a scintillator having a face, producing light with the scintillator in response to the radiation, allowing at least a portion of the light to leave the face, and reflecting a majority of the light leaving the face at an angle within a range of 45 to 135 degrees compared to the direction in which the light was traveling when it left the face with a reflector. Other embodiments are directed to a reflector including a plurality of prisms having a first face and a second face with a barrier on the first face.

Systems and methods for implementing communication in a multiprocessor are disclosed. In one exemplary implementation a first processor receives a request to provide a communication resource for an application executing on the first processor to communicate with a remote application. In response to the communication request, the first processor opens a communication resource on a second processor, and implements communication operations between the application executing on the first processor and the remote application using the communication resource on the second processor.

An imitation cheese composition having a fracturability of about 4.9 N to about 9.8 N at 21° C., the composition containing moisture, preferably in an amount that is at least 55% by weight, a hydrocolloid, a cheese-derived component, preferably in an amount less than about 15% by weight of the composition, cheese flavoring that is natural or artificial and an acidulent, preferably in an amount that causes a pH of the composition to be not greater than 4.6. The composition is sufficiently firm such that it can be at least one of sliced, cut, shredded or grated. Preferably, protein in an amount not greater than 6% by weight of the composition is present, and/or the acidulent is in a total titrateable amount of less than 1.5% by weight of the composition, resulting in an imitation cheese having a flavor, texture and consistency that was only previously attainable in a pasturized process cheese product.

Implementations of a method for associating a charitable donation with a discounted transaction include, providing a certificate asociated with a discount for at least one vendor to a customer, receiving notification of a discounted transaction using the certificate, and determining a charitable donation associated with the discounted transaction. In other implementations, a method for associating a charitable donation with a discounted transaction includes generating certificates associated with a vendor. The certificates have a face value usable in exchanges with the vendor. The method further includes selling the certificates to at least one customer at a price less than the face value. The method also includes determining a charitable donation associated with the sale of each certificate based at least in part on either the face value of the certificate sold or the price of the certificate sold. Implementations of a system for associating a charitable donation with a discounted transaction include an intermediary providing certificates to customers.
