Abstract: A device for enabling content selection is configured to display a program guide that presents a plurality of icon groupings. Each icon grouping corresponds to one of a plurality of sub-categories within a category of media content. An icon in an icon grouping representing a media content item within a sub-category of the plurality of sub-categories. The device is further configured to receive a first input indicative of a selection of the icon grouping and based on the received first input, update the programming guide to present the icon grouping for selection. The updating of the program guide includes changing a manner in which the icons of the icon grouping are organized within the icon grouping. The device is further configured to perform an operation associated with the icon from the icon grouping based on a second input indicative of a selection of the icon.

Abstract: A method of detecting a polar compound in a sample, such as a fuel sample. The method including: contacting the sample with a solvatochromic compound, wherein the solvatochromic compound undergoes a shift in spectral absorbance when in contact with polar compounds in the sample; and detecting a change in spectral absorbance of the solvatochromic compound, thereby detecting polar compounds in the sample.

Abstract: A device for enabling content selection is configured to display icons representing items of content. The icons may be displayed using a helical structure. A device may enable a user to select icons with a helical structure. A device may enable a user to navigate icons presented in the foreground of a helical structure. A user navigating icons in the foreground of a helical structure may cause new icons to be presented in the background of the helical structure.
