Abstract: A method for selection of an option on a device is provided where the device is enabled for option selection through motion gestures by a user. The method comprises providing at least one option for a first input request and announcing the first input request and at least one option of the first input request. A first motion gesture is detected, and the device determines whether the first motion gesture corresponds to a positive selection or a negative selection, wherein a control module of the device determines whether the first motion gesture meets a threshold for a positive gesture selection or a negative gesture selection. The device advances to a second option and announces the second option upon the determination of a negative selection as the first motion gesture. The selected option for the first input request is stored in a memory of the device after a positive selection.

Abstract: A hierarchical based advertising system including a primary server, at least one secondary server and at least one terminal is provided. The primary server has advertisement data. The secondary server is coupled with the primary server while the terminal is coupled with the secondary server. The primary server, the secondary server and the terminal are arranged in a hierarchical structure. The primary server transmits the advertisement data to the secondary server to update advertisements displayed on the terminal. A broadcasting method of the hierarchical based advertising system is also provided.

Abstract: A process for purifying 1,3-propanediol from the fermentation broth of a cultured E. coli that has been bioengineered to synthesize 1,3-propanediol from sugar is provided. The basic process entails filtration, ion exchange and distillation of the fermentation broth product stream, preferably including chemical reduction of the product during the distillation procedure. Also provided are highly purified compositions of 1,3-propanediol.
