Welcome!
Sprint is committed to developing technologies that give you the ability to get what you want when you want it, faster than ever before. This booklet introduces you to the basics of getting started with Sprint and your LG Marquee™. Visit sprint.com/support for the complete User Guide, along with videos, tutorials, and community forums for your phone.

...Figure 1: Shukongojin, 12th/14th century Japan. It is composed of wood with traces of polychromy. The sculpture is from Kate S. Buckingham Endowment, 1958. The information is from the Art Institute of Chicago. The image is taken from a sketch over a photograph from an LG camera phone. Lester Leong ASST/AH 219 February 9, 2013 Visual Analysis: Shukongojin The Art Institute’s Shukongojin is a Japanese free standing wooden sculpture that is 91 cm tall with traces of red pigment, and was created approximately during the 12th-14th century. Shukongojin is also known as the Thunderbolt Deity that has the power to pierce ignorance with wisdom and defeat evil. The deity is a protector of Buddhist law and is usually placed at gateways of Buddhist temples. The Art Institute created a perfect setting for the sculpture. It was placed on top of a pedestal under a soft yellow light, which gave it a divine appearance. Complimented with the solemn silence at the time and other Buddhist deities on pedestals nearby, the experience was similar to that of a sacred temple. Shukongojin is composed of shapes and direction of the lines that give the sculpture a menacing appearance. The sculpture has three distinct shapes: the head, right arm, and base. The head’s primary noticeable feature is the hair. The hair has a general angular shape that appears like a cone composed of smaller cones. Also the hair has a wavy style which gives it a flame like image. The heads’ secondary feature...

Super Bowl

...at the end of the game to make sure the ball wasn’t stolen. The next day the coach came to the players saying that one dedicated fan offered the team a billion dollars for the ball. The team then knew that they had to find the ball. One teammate suggested to hire a detective but then another came up with the idea to hire a mathematician instead. When the mathematician arrived the first thing he asked was, “In which direction was the ball thrown?” The player that threw the ball then answered, “The ball was thrown west.” So then they went to the west part of the stadium and the mathematician told everyone to split up into two groups, one goes left and one goes right. He brought everyone to the west side of the stadium because he knew that the ball translated to that area. He also knew that the ball could have bounced left or right. The team searching the right side of where the ball would have been translated to found a note saying, “I found your ball but, I won’t let you have it so easy. Go to the centerpoint of the stadium then search for another set of directions.” The mathematician then drew a map of the stadium then found the centerpoint. When they all arrived to the centerpoint they found another note saying to go to the vertex of the inscribed angle that can be created from the two main pillars in the front of the stadium. Since the mathematician knew that a inscribed angle’s vertex could be found by finding where the two chords intersect he lead the way to the final destination...

Ancient Chinese Contributions

...• Row Planting • The Compass • Gunpowder • Paper • Seismograph • The Wheelbarrow • Kites • Silk • Seed Drill • Hang Gliders Thank You Ancient Chinese Now allow me explain these marvels. Row planting was first planted in 6th century BC. This way of planting allows the crops to grow faster and stronger and they also realized that as the wind travels there is less damage in crops planted in rows due to the wind passing through gently. It is also more efficient in watering, weeding and harvesting the crops. The compass was created in 4th century BC and was made of lodestone. The compass was first used by fortune-tellers before it was applied to the cardinal direction. Then the Chinese’s started using the compass to point to the south because they considered south not north their cardinal direction. Gunpowder has been credited to certain Chinese alchemists around 9th century but the legend has it as gunpowder being accidently discovered by alchemists looking for a concoction that could create immortality in humans.

...paintings in the traditional sense. Thangkas are usually much smaller and are rolled on canvas so that they can be easily transported and hung anywhere for teaching. All of the thangkas I saw were enormous, comparing to a regularly sized painting. They cover three-fourths the height of the wall and are four or five times wider than a normal human. These paintings also deviate from the rules of thangka art in the use of colours, shape, proportion, characteristics and qualities. The traditional thangka paintings are strictly regulated, while the thangkas shown in Bowers Museum are more free-flowing, giving the artist more room for creativity. Although all nine thangkas share the same size and characteristics, Virupaksa (Dharma King of the West Direction) with 16 attendants painting caught my eyes immediately when I walked into the room, maybe because the main figure in this thangka- Virupaksa has a red face. He is depicted with a wide face, large round eyes, a brown moustache and beard. In this painting, Virupaksa is holding a writhing snake entwined around his upper arm. His left hand is raised holding a pearl shape with a yellow flame extending upward. Adorned with an ornate gold...

...Lesson Plans Creating a lesson plan for a group of Kindergarten students can be very difficult. The activities you choose need to be fun, educational, and engaging as most 5 year olds tend to lose focus easily. Most children love music and dancing, so for this lesson plan I have chosen a dance titled Father Abraham. As you may have noticed I will be developing this lesson for a class of kindergarten student’s. At this stage of development children should be able to make conscious decisions regarding music, art, dance and theater, and respond to them with some form of emotion. They should also be able to notice different sounds, pictures, and movements, as well as notice their similarities. They may even be able to create their own music and dance moves. Lastly they should have fairly good body control, and can work independently (NAEYC, 2004). This class has a total of 10 students and here is a look at the lesson plan: Grade Level: Kindergarten Class Size: 10 Students Student Learning Objective: As result of this lesson, students will . . . • Distinguish left and right • Follow commands on which arm, leg or head to move • March in place • Stay within their personal space State Standard: The North Carolina State Standards we will cover in this activity are, apply competent motor skills and movement patterns needed to perform a variety of physical activities, understand concepts, principles, strategies, and tactics that apply to the learning and performance...

Pinball Catches The Ring Analysis

...This article is about a woman who is attending a Toronto Argonauts game that catches Michael “Pinball” Clemons’ Grey Cup ring which he throws into the crowd. He is known for doing this to let fans try it on and take pictures with. The woman catches the ring and assumes that it is a gift which she is entitled to keep. Fans give her trouble, even offering to take the ring by force. She leaves the arena with the ring. She claims that as soon as she learned that the ring was reported stolen, she returned the ring claiming to not have known it wasn’t hers to keep. I think that this article can tell us a lot about the modern world. The first thing is that people seem to be more focused on material things now than they used to be. Everyone...

Smartphones Impact

...the world communicate but they are also changing many aspects of most people’s daily lives. Since there creation smartphones have come a long way in what they can do. Smartphones now allow user to talk, text, tweet, search, email, check the weather, get directions, take pictures, find restaurants, pay bills, shop, listen to music, and do so much more from the palm of out hands. While this makes life easier are smartphones causing problems? With security problems and social issues arising with the increased use of smartphones, smartphones may be not such a smart idea after all. Background Smartphones have been around since 1993. IBM created the first smart phone called SIMON. This phone was created to combine “voice and data services into one package, as the device acted as a mobile phone, a PDA and even a fax machine” (Reed, 2012). This smartphone was rare possession considering it could be purchased for the price of $899. While the Pilot created by Palm is not a smartphone, it is credited for popularizing handheld PDA (Personal Digital Assistant) devices (Reed, 2012). In the late 90’s the Nokia 9110 Communicator was the start of keyboards on phones with its original fold out keyboard (Reed, 2012). In 2002 the first phone capable of receiving emails and web browsing was created, the Blackberry by RIM (Reed, 2010). With a few more attempts form other companies the smartphone was never a huge success until 2007 when Apple released it’s first iPhone. Its success was in its...
