Top 10 Maps from Muslim Civilisation, when North was South and South was North, towards Mecca
1001 Inventions reveals 10 marvellous maps from Muslim Civilisation that include one of the earliest known maps of South Amercia and maps where the world appears upside down! A time when North was South and South was North, towards Mecca...

We tend to take many things for granted. Today, we are equipped with numerous means of communication and transport over land, sea and air. We have such freedom to swiftly travel around the globe, so much so that we tend to travel far and wide without ever considering the immense contributions others have made for our convenience. Great scholars from Muslim Civilisation, indeed, turned the world upside down with their maps; not just metaphorically but world maps once were literally upside down (with south dipicted at the top).
As more people began to travel the world 1,000 years ago for trade, exploration and religious reasons, the demand for good maps increased. Some of the world's most precious maps were drawn then by scholars, geographers and seafarers who assembeld the geographical knowledge known to them - they carried out detailed mathematical analysis, measured and charted the Earth's features, used sophisticated astrolabes to help assess height and distance - to construct intricate maps of the world. Here we introduce ten key examples.
Let the countdown begin!
Ali Macar Map
The "Ali Macar Reis Atlas" is housed in the Topkapi Palace Museum Library (Hazine 644) in Istanbul. As a work of art, this atlas certainly ranks among the most successful. It consists of six portolan charts and one mappamundi, all on double pages, i.e., there are fourteen pages. They are drawn on parchment leaves and bound in leather, forming an appealing small volume.
The artist-cartographer who drew these charts must have been professionally connected to those who drew other similar maps in Christian Europe; and the artistic perfection of this atlas strongly argues against it being the isolated work of a captain who would only have been imitating such models; the author must have been a craftsman with great experience of this type of work.

Al Istakhri Map
A world map by Abul Qasim Ubaidullah ibn Abdullah ibn Khurdad-bih al Istakhri (934 CE) aka Estakhri. The map is oriented with South at the top as was common of maps at the time. Picture displayed on "Old Manuscripts and Maps from Khorasan". It was beilieved that Estakhri created the earliest known account of windmills. His Arabic language works included masalik al-mamalik "Traditions of Countries" and Suwar al-Aqaaleem "Shapes of the Climes".

Tarih-i Hind-i Garbi Map
The book entitled Tārih-i Hind-i Garbī (History of the West Indies), probably written by Muhammad b. Amir al-Suûdī al-Niksarī (d. 1591) in the 16th century, contains information about the geographical discoveries and the New World (America). This work, based on Spanish and Italian geographical sources, was presented to Sultan Murād III in 1573.
The book tells the amazing stories of the explorations and conquests of Columbus, Cortes, Pizarro, and others, and it also endeavours to incorporate the new geographic information into the body of Islamic knowledge. It presents a major effort by an Ottoman Muslim scholar, almost unique in the 16th century; firstly, to transmit through translation information from one culture (European Christendom) to another (Ottoman Islam), and secondly, to correct and expand Islamic geography and cartography.

Ibn Hawqal Map
World map by Ibn Hawqal, commentated by Shiva Balaghi
A map (also oriented with South at the top) by the widely travelled Abu al-Qasim Muhammad b. Hawqal, originally from al-Jazira region in Turkey, north of Mardin. He is also referred to as al-Nusaybini, after Nusaybin town located in the region.
Very little is known about Ibn Hawqal but he is believed to have been a Baghdad-based trader who loved traveling. Researchers attribute the dearth of information on Ibn Hawqal to the fact that he spent a substantial part of his life in traveling and never stayed put in a certain region. It is his book, Surat al-Ard, from which we can derive some information about him while to the effect that he was fond of reading especially books by Khurdadhebah, Qudadamah and al-Jihani, which might have been the reason behind his keenness to travel and see the places he read about.

Kâtip Çelebi Map
Tuhfat Al-Kibâr fî Asfâr Al-Bihâr (The Gift to the Great Ones on Naval Campaigns) was written by Kâtib Çelebi in 1657 and emphasises the importance of the Turkish activities in the seas and the Ottoman contribution to the navigational history.
Kâtib Çelebi emphasised the importance of the science of geography at the introduction of Tuhfat al-kibâr and explained that the rulers of the state should know the frontiers and borders of the Ottoman State and the states in this region even if they do not know the whole of the Earth.
Çelebi valued history like we do in a modern sense today and asserted that most people did not know the real value of this branch of knowledge and thus viewed history as if it were a tale. He expressed his complaint about this saying "who reads and listens to a letter of love and faithfulness?".

Mahmud of Kashgar Map
Mahmud of Kashgar completed his famous book Divânu Lügati't-Türk in 1074. Famous for being a linguist, he wrote the book in order to teach Arab speakers Turkish and to prove that the Turkish language was as important as Arabic.
Mahmud stated that the regions of all the Turkish tribes from Europe to China were included in full detail within a circular map, which, as he pointed out, was drawn in order to indicate the regions the Turks inhabited.
The western, northern and southern parts of Asia were left undrawn but despite the fact that the map was full of errors, the data about the eastern regions were correct. Mahmud showed the Great Wall of China on his map and mentioned that this wall and high mountains acted as natural obstacles preventing him from learning the Chinese language. He also stated that Japan shared the same fate, being an island in the eastern part of Asia.

Book of Curiosities Map
The Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford has purchased the medieval Arabic manuscript Kitab Gharaib al-Funun Wa-Mulah Al-Uyun popularised under the title the Book of Curiosities, an exceptionally rich text on cosmography. The treatise is one of the most important recent finds in the history of Islamic cartography in particular, and for the history of pre-modern cartography in general.
The manuscript, a highly illustrated treatise on astronomy and geography compiled by an unknown author between 1020 and 1050, contains an important and hitherto unknown series of colourful maps, giving unique insight into Islamic concepts of the world. The copy owned by the Bodleian library is the only nearly complete copy and the one to have been extensively studied and released in an electronic edition.

Piri Reis Map
Piri Reis is a well known Ottoman-Turkish admiral, geographer and cartographer from the 16th century. His famous world map compiled in 1513 and discovered in 1929 at Topkapi Palace in Istanbul is the oldest known Turkish map showing the New World, and one of the oldest maps of America still in existence.
The half of the map which survives shows the western coasts of Europe and North Africa and the coast of Brazil with reasonable accuracy in addition to various Atlantic islands including the Azores and Canary Islands.

Al-Idrisi Map - The World Upside Down
This is one of the most famous maps from Muslim Civilisation. It was drawn by Muhammad al-Idrisi who was born in Ceuta (Morocco) in 1099-1100 CE, and died in 1166 CE. The map is oriented with South at the top as was common at the time.
Al-Idrisi studied at Cordoba, and although he died in his birth place, he spent his working life at the Norman court of Palermo. At the age of 16, he travelled through Asia Minor, Morocco, Spain and the South of France and even visited England. His description of most of Western Europe is lively and, on the whole, quite accurate. The same is true of his treatment of the Balkans, whilst for the rest of Europe and for most of the Islamic world (with the exception of North Africa, with which he had a firsthand acquaintance) his account is based on the writings of others.
Al-Idrisi was a noteworthy and original geographer. He used in a creative way the system of cylindrical projection of the Earth's surface, which was to be claimed some centuries later, in 1569, by the Flemish Gerard Mercator. Al-Idrisi's other merit, according to Udovitch, is the extensive information he provides about contemporary Western Europe. Hitti also notes that Al-Idrisi's map places the sources of the Nile-supposedly discovered in the latter part of the 19th century in the equatorial highlands of Africa...

Further Information
Geography in Muslim Civilisation
It was during the Abbasid Caliphate when Islamic civilisation was said to have reached its peak. The Caliphs commissioned reports on roads to help their postmasters deliver messages to addresses within their empire. These accounts which initially resulted in the Book of Routes, laid the foundation for more intensive information gathering about far-away places and foreign lands with their physical landscape, production capabilities and commercial activities. With the development of more accurate astronomy and mathematics, map plotting became a respected branch of science.
Geography became an important field of study especially with the work of Al-Khwarizmi, one of the earliest scientific descriptive geographers and a highly talented mathematician. His famous book, The Form of the Earth, inspired a generation of writers in Baghdad and Muslim Spain (Al-Andalus). It became a major source of inspiration to unearth, analyse and record geographical data among many well-known scholars after him.
More Maps
There are other maps that were not included in the countdown. Some examples include:
1. Ibn al-Wardi's maps.
Ibn al-Wardi World Map 14th Cent.
Image is from "The world geography by al-Wardi (died 850/1456), accompanied with a coloured world map and a picture of Ka'aba. It sums the geographical knowledge of the Arabic world of the time, referring to climate, terrain, fauna and flora, population, way of living, existing states and their governments in individual regions of the world. The author also speaks about Slavs and their lifestyle and mentions al-Mahdiyya as the residence of the Fatimid dynasty. Therefore, the book is older than the city of Kairo (founded in 698 C. E.). Al-Wardi makes reference in his work to the book by al-Mas'udi." (Source)
2. Gangnido/Kangnido map:
Gangnido/Kangnido map early 15th Cent.
This world map was created in Korea and produced by Yi Hoe and Kwon Kun. The Kangnido map predates Zheng He voyages and suggests that he had quite detailed geographical information on much of the Old World.

3. Al-Masudi's map:
Abu al-Ḥasan ʿAlī ibn al-Ḥusayn ibn ʿAlī al-Masʿūdī was an Arab historian and geographer. The image below is sadly of a replica of his map.
Al-Masudi's atlas of the world 10th Cent.
4. Matrakci's beautiful maps:
Istanbul by Matrakci Nasuh 15-16th Cent
He would have been in the top ten if it was a world map. Matrakci Nasuh was a famous Ottoman polymath, writer and knight who produced important books in several fields. He made contributions in the fields of mathematics, geography, history and calligraphy. He also invented a military lawn game called "Matrak", a kind of animation of battle.

You come across as a rather spontaneous or even impulsive person. (No offence meant - I would put myself into that category as well, but perhaps not to such and extent.)
When I take a photograph, itÔÇÖs usually because I can see the desired end result, and I want to capture that ÔÇ£visionÔÇØ either for the ÔÇ£pure and simpleÔÇØ gratification of having created something tangible from my inspiration, or to show/give it to others.
Often I will take 3-4 shots (or 200 shots) of the same subject in hopes that one will reflect what I want. While there are occasions where I will choose a second or third shot, I usually find the first one to be the most inspired; the rest can often seem like cheap imitations.
Barring any ÔÇ£finishingÔÇØ like cropping, color compensation, or pushing the exposure, do you find your first picture to be your best, or do you like to go back and work on it to get what you want?
Riding in SE OH to take pictures of potential "bonus locations" for LD rally to send to a friend. Near Dexter City, OH is a memorial to Johnny Appleseed. I took various shots to identify and verify the memorial. One shot I took was the wording at the base of the memorial, in case the rally master wanted to have an answer the question type bonus.
After I took the photo I started to walk away, and "schazamm..." The photo is in no way artistic. It is just a message to immortalize someone and tell about their life...that (to me) fit perfectly into the theme.
What a great weekend to be out riding...a little nippy (low 30's) when I stopped for this photo...but toured a lot of fun "tourist" type places, rode some great roads, and just enjoyed life.
With my great typing and computer skills...I sent the photo before I was ready.
The title was to be A Good Deed with Seed.

p.s. A shot of the entire site with, of course, Apple trees in the back.
live in color, play in black and white
out about 600 BW and 400 color negs from my Australia riding in 2001 i have 1 image that made it into two museum collections and about 20 maybe 30 images that are portfolio quality... so there is something about finding the higher quality out of the quantity but you still have to train your eye (minds eye) to see the image and think about how you wish it to be seen when it is done. Most artist amature or pro dont do this. for example, when i am in my ceramics studio... i make a piece for what glaze and where in my wood kiln it will go most likely... i think about the finished item before it leave the wheel or work bench... most ceramist i know first make the piece then think about what glaze or firing effect they want... (this is how acedamia instutions teach art)... i find that once i am in photo taking mode i take a lot of picts... have gone for months with out taking the camera out for even a touristy shot of something... then i take a walk up my creek and spend 2 hrs on one ice fall.. its all in the training of you inner aesthetic eye... and knowing most of the time you will spend more energy the higher level of refinement of an image to get it right where you want it even if you do absolutely not correctoins... like the Bison hoof prints in the geyser minerals image above... i spent 20 minutes just figuring out what part i wanted to capture... at least my wife is the same and went off shooting some morning gesyer mist trying to foto a geyser that did not want to be photoed

Rival factions contesting Iran's parliamentary elections next week are breaking longstanding taboos and using once-sacred icons to challenge opponents in a vote that is likely to set the tone for the presidential contest in 2009.
All sides say they revere Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution and are devoted to the ideals of its leader, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. But who truly carries that revolutionary torch is the focus of vicious debate in which rivals accuse one another of being "enemies" of the regime bent on deliberately destroying it.
Iran's conservative camp, known as "principlists" and including allies of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is deeply divided but likely to keep its majority in the 290-seat parliament, or majlis, in the March 14 vote. The number of reformist candidates – relative liberals who want to ease social restrictions and end isolation from the West – has been limited, as hard-liners aim to prevent their political comeback.
The discourse shows the profound confidence of Iran's most radical right-wing factions, analysts say. But their unbridled effort to keep hold of every lever of power in Iran is also causing them to break many long-held rules.
"In 29 years, they didn't have the courage to talk this way," says Grand Ayatollah Saanei, a high-ranking cleric, speaking in the religious center of Qom. "But now [hard-liners] have full control and they have no competitors inside or outside Iran."
Regime confidence has also been inadvertently boosted by Washington, which published in December a US National Intelligence Estimate that determined that Iran had halted work on a nuclear weapons program in 2003. Suddenly the belief that "war was just around the corner" disappeared, says Iraj Jamshidi, political editor of the reformist Etemaad newspaper in Tehran.
"The conservatives feel a very strong sense of power in themselves, especially after the NIE report …they feel the chance of war against them is gone," says Mr. Jamshidi. "The reality is that the Islamic Republic feels itself at the peak of its power since the revolution, and the foreign threat does not exist anymore."
Indeed, Mr. Ahmadinejad has kept up his anti-West rhetoric, this week dismissing as "worthless" a third round of UN Security Council sanctions for Iran's refusal to halt uranium enrichment. He recently claimed that Iran's nuclear defiance has "brought all big powers to their knees"; and decried opponents in Iran for helping "materialize the plans of the enemies."
"Everybody has understood that Iran is the No. 1 power in the world," the president said last week. "Today the name of Iran means a firm punch in the teeth of the powerful…. Today the message of your revolution is being heard [around the world] and even in the United States itself."
Such confidence is translating into tough political infighting at home, where hard-liners have violated rules laid down by Ayatollah Khomeini himself against the military playing any role in politics, and against criticizing Khomeini's family.
"To follow the path of the Islamic revolution, support for the principlists is necessary, inevitable, and a divine duty of all revolutionary groups," the Revolutionary Guards commander, Gen. Mohammad Ali Jafari, said last month.
Those words brought stinging rebuke from across the political spectrum, even from fellow hard-liners such as the editor of the hard-line newspaper Kayhan, who called it a "faulty declaration" that is "against the clear guidelines."
Among reformist critics was the respected grandson of the late leader. "If a soldier wants to enter into politics, he needs to forget the military and the presence of a gun in politics means the end of all dialogue," said Sayed Hassan Khomeini, a mid-ranking cleric in charge of his grandfather's mausoleum, in a rare public comment.
"Those who claim to be loyal to [Khomeini] should be very sensitive to this order, which was directly given by him," Mr. Khomeini said. Noting that the revolution's leader put great store in the vote of the people, he criticized the initial disqualification of some 2,200 reformist candidates (850 of whom have been reinstated) including another Khomeini grandson. "No one can prevent the people from deciding their future," he said.
But the hard-line counterattack was swift and unprecedented. A website close to the president's office went after the Khomeini family itself – a target long off-limits. Under the headline, "The Secret of the Red Cheeks of Sayed Hassam Khomeini," the Nosazi website wrote that Khomeini had received a $75,000 BMW and lived in luxury in north Tehran, where he would "never leave" his steam sauna but "have the luck to see the problems of the poor and needy with [his] red cheeks."
The backlash to that was just as fierce. Fellow conservatives warned that allies of Ahmadinejad had gone too far. Kayhan's influential editor, Hossein Shariatmadari, told the president in print: "Beware of infiltrators and enemies [reformists], but mostly [beware] ignorant friends that are more dangerous ... pretending to support you and your government."
Some argue the real problem is rule by one faction, the conservatives, that leaves little room for dissent. "Different views should go to the parliament, [so] we have a clash of ideas and the best one comes out," says Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri, Iran's leading dissident cleric and once Khomeini's heir apparent, in an interview in Qom. But hard-liners "want the government and parliament to be all the same, the people to be one with them, and they put others aside…. They weaken the revolution and they weaken Islam."
Iranians often blame the clergy for not fulfilling the promises of the revolution. A common 1979 slogan demanded independence, freedom, and an Islamic republic, with explicit expectations of prosperity and a popular vote.
"The owners of the country are not four or five people. The [authoritarian, pro-West] Shah [toppled in 1979] made the same mistake, now they are making this mistake again," said Mr. Montazeri. "Because people saw the opposite of the promises…all this eventually turned to dust."
As the election nears, the former two-time president Hashemi Rafsanjani warned congregants at Friday prayers in Tehran that some "unnatural" factions "directed from outside of the country" were trying "to create division between [Khomeini] and the people."
Anger over the insults to Khomeini's grandson was blamed for the sudden death of Ayatollah Mohammad Reza Tavassoli, the former head of Khomeini's office, who fell dead while making an impassioned speech about it in front of the Expediency Council. The Kargozaran newspaper praised him with the headline: "Defending the Imam until the very last moment." It quoed Mr. Rafsanjani's brother as saying that the ayatollah had died attacking those with "fossilized minds."
"In a democracy, everyone should have a voice, and what is happening to reformists now is not democratic," says Mohammadtaghi Fazel Maybudi, a religious scholar at Mofid University in Qom. "Some of these [hard-liners] are moving against the flow of the world, which is toward democracy."
"At the beginning of the revolution, we went a little too fast, with too many executions, and could have had relations with the US in another way," says Mr. Maybudi. "Now the conservatives are continuing those extremist moves again. I think they will have a negative effect on the nation."
For some clerics, the bitter politicking itself is a betrayal of the revolution.
"The political scene today is becoming polluted with unethical things," says Mohsen Gharavian, a mid-ranking cleric and religious scholar in Qom who studied under a hard-line ayatollah revered by Ahmadinejad. "When a cleric wants to become an MP, he should be ready to have his reputation played with."

John James Audubon, the world's most famous ornithologist, is known to have said that a day in which he killed fewer than 100 birds was a day wasted. So why is he so renowned?
Because the beautiful watercolor bird paintings he left us (mainly done from dead, wired birds) so vividly depict the natural opulence of the United States in the early half of the 19th century--before photography had turned to color and zoom--that maybe we can forgive him his profligacy.
There are roughly 200 original sets of Audubon's 435 paintings, assembled in book form as Birds of America. This morning, an edition was sold at a Christie's auction for $7.9 million. Another edition of the book sold last year for $11.5 million at a Sotheby's auction, making it the most expensive printed book ever sold.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- The Ohio Parole Board is ready to announce its decision on whether a condemned killer who shot two people including a police officer should be spared.
Death row inmate Harry Mitts is scheduled to die next month after being convicted of shooting the pair, including a Garfield Heights police sergeant, in suburban Cleveland in 1994.
Mitts told the parole board in an interview this month he'll accept whatever decision it makes. The board planned a ruling Tuesday morning.
Much of Mitts' parole board hearing last week focused on whether the killings were racially motivated. One of his victims, John Bryant, was black, and Mitts made racist statements about blacks just before shooting Bryant, according to court records.
Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Tim McGinty dismissed Mitts' claims that he was not a racist.
"He is a racist cop killer who is deserving of his punishment," McGinty said in a motion presented to the board asking it to deny clemency.
Mitts is remorseful and accepts responsibility for what he did, his attorney, Jeff Kelleher, told the board. He denied that Mitts was racist.
"Mr. Bryant died not because he was black," Kelleher said Monday in an interview. "He died because he had the misfortune of meeting a man who became unhinged in the summer of '94."
Mitts was also convicted and sentenced to die for killing Sgt. Dennis Gliver, who was white.
Kelleher said he disagrees with the defense put on by Mitts' original lawyer, who blamed Mitts' drinking for the shootings.
"He acknowledges he was drinking and was intoxicated, but he knew what he was doing, and he acted intentionally, and that's part of his full acceptance of responsibility," Kelleher said.
The state's supply of its execution drug, pentobarbital, expires at month's end and Mitts will be the last person put to death with that drug in Ohio if his execution is carried out.
The Department of Rehabilitation and Correction has said it will likely announce its new execution method by Oct. 4.

Pete Thamel's article in the Oct. 1, 2012 issue of Sports Illustrated (an issue that has curiously disappeared from SI's online archives) was heavily cited in Deadspin.com's story on the Manti Te'o hoax as an example of the national media not verifying the authenticity of Teo's girlfriend.
Thamel went on "The Dan Patrick Show" this morning to try and explain how he got duped (you can hear the entire interview at danpatrick.com).
Leading up to the Te'o interview, Thamel spent several days on Notre Dame's campus talking to other people. It was those conversations according to Thamel that painted a convincing picture about the girlfriend. "Not only was Manti duped here," said Thamel. "But the entire campus was duped to the point where Father Paul Doyle said to me 'I think I met the girl last year.'"
Thamel recounted several other conversations he had with teammates and head coach Brian Kelly. However, according to Thamel, all of those conversations revolved around the day that Te'o learned his girlfriend had passed away.
Thamel said he did look for an obituary and a death notice and let his editor know that there were some "small red flags." He also explained that a search of public documents came up blank but that it was not unusual for somebody of that age to lack a "footprint."
And yet, despite feeling at the time that his research was missing "some of the details about Lennay [Kekua]," the conversation with people at Notre Dame left him with little doubt of her existence. "By the time I got to Manti Te'o," said Thamel. "There wasn't a whole lot of like 'Does she exist?' thinking in my head."
On the one hand, it is easy to understand why there would not be an inclination to investigate something as basic as a girlfriend. However, Thamel made the story of her death an important element in his story. And in hindsight, those small red flags were bigger than they appeared.

The Government of the Independent State of Samoa has officially announced its decision to join IUCN by endorsing the Union's Statutes, becoming a State Member of the world's largest and oldest environmental network. The Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment has been designated by the Government of Samoa as its liaison with the IUCN Secretariat.
IUCN welcomes Samoa, an archipelago covering more than 2,000 square kilometres in the central South Pacific Ocean and home to the world's second largest Polynesian group. With a population of 179,000 people, Fa'a-Samoa (or the 'Samoan way') remains intact among Samoan people, influencing the socio-political and cultural way of life. Samoa is made up of nine volcanic islands often referred to as the cradle of Polynesia. From the rainforest covered rugged volcanic mountain peaks of the two main islands, Savai'i and Upolu, to the vast fertile valleys leading to coastlines ringed with white sandy beaches, Samoa's natural bounty speaks for itself.
The diversity of Samoa's natural resources, its history, culture, and commitment to a sustainable, healthy environment, make us proud to welcome this island nation as a new State Member of our Union.
"Samoa for many years was our sole agency member in the region and the Government is a major leader on environment issues in the region and has one of the stronger environment ministry teams in the Pacific," says Taholo Kami, Regional Director of IUCN Oceania. "We look forward to working with the Government of Samoa".
Samoa is a signatory to key environmental conventions, such as the Convention on Biological Diversity, the World Heritage Convention, Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, UN Convention on Law of the Sea, and the UN Fish Stocks Agreement, signifying its commitment to the sustainable management of its natural resources.
Samoa is the fifth Pacific Island to become a State Member of IUCN from Oceania, joining Fiji, Nauru, Solomon Islands and Tonga.

LG finaly the king..
I got this phone after my Sanyo 8300 had an unfortunate accident, and boy is this phone different. In a good way that is. I FINALLY GET SERVICE IN MY HOUSE...
I live in a very very rural area and with nokia, samsung and sanyo I had terrible reception in my home, now with the 350 I can walk around the inside of my home and keep a call.
-Bluetooth 1.2
-30mb built-in memory - 26mb open for user
-Can set vid clips and animated gifs as wallpaper.
-extremely loud ear piece and speaker
-mobitv is actually smooth
-full 3d gaming
-hidden caller-id
-raised keypad
-1.3 mega-pixel camera
-smooth video recording
-smooth menus
-OTA phone updates and prl updates
-picture messages actually come to the phone
-Only 1 con, but not important... No Mp3 player.
No real cons, a perfect addition to teh Sprint lineup.
I can hear you now
I got this phone on 04-25-06 from the local sprint store. on it's first day on the open market. I've tried every thing out on the phone. and with very excessive use, the phone worked flawlessly in every way, I put it through all the hard test and it never failed with no lost signals, this phone has done every-thing it says it can and a lot more. It's very user friendly and very easy to use. the key pad is very nice and easily seen even in total darkness, the display is one of the best I've seen,the phone is very easy to set-up and use even with-out reading the user guide the phone easily walks you through it all. this phone easily out preforms the razer the blade and 920 and most others in and above it's class,and for the money you just can't beat it any-where on the market, this phone will be one of those die-hard phones hats hard to top for along time to come. PROS. all of the above and then some. CONS. can't find any yet and don't think their is any to be found. they call this phone a mid-level but I can say it's all but high end, it's the closest you can get to it, L.G. is back on top again.I would recommend this phone to any one that don't care about f.m. radio or mp3 and all the other ussless garbage.
AD reviews continues below...
You can't beat the bang for the buck!
The phone seems well made and durable. I think the Main screen and OLED are great. Very clear and good size. I like the outer indicator light on the phone too. The menu's and software are a huge step up from what I was use to. It is quick and responsive, and it's easy to find and edit contacts and other stuff. The phone itself sounds very clear and I've had great reception in the NE New Jersey area.
The bluetooth seems pretty good. I'm able to use it with my handsfree link in my Acura TSX with no problem. It "pops" a bit as the phone links to the car, but then the sound is very clear. I haven't tried the BT as a modem, but it pairs easy to my iMac and by IBM laptop at work. I don't think BT file transfers are allowed except for vCards. I did transfer all of my contacts from outlook yo my phone via BT from my IBM without a hitch.
I like gadgets, so I'm really impressed by the m4a ringer capability of this phone. I have used the FOCUS tool to upload 30 second homemade ringers and they all sound great. I've also hand no problem with homemade 128x160 pixel screen savers, but haven't been able to transfer raw midi files. QCP works too, but you need special software to make ringers of that type.
The camera seems pretty good, but you do have to hold it steady. The camcorder isn't that great, but I don't use it that much. I'm not sure how to transfer pictures to a computer b/c I don't think you can do it by BT. The only thing I'm bummed about is I'd like to get a data cable and use bitpim if possible. I'm not sure that bitpim works with the LX350, but from a little research, this phone seems to be a similar platform to the 325. I may try and get a cable for the 325 and see if that works. In conclusion, I'd recommed this phone to anyone. As LG says, this is a mid-range phone with high-end features. You can't beat the bang for the buck, even if it's not as sexy as some of the thinner phones on the market. A+ for the LG350!
This phone is one of the better ones out on sprint right now. I sell sprint and have sprint. Right now this phone is going for 70 for bluetooth and a 1.3 camera and has some cool game all for 70 dollars Please this is a cool phone! buy it!
This phone is perfect for anyone who wants an AWESOME, great looking phone that performs amazing and does'nt need all that extra EV-DO, Mobile TV, MP3 playing crap, or a phone that is paper thin. Phones are supposed to be used mainly for TALKING, and this phone does just that. My last phone was a Samsung A740 and this phone beats the piss of out it. Its signal reception and sound quality are top knotch! The ringers that come with it are great and are nice and loud. For those of you who cant tell, the speaker is on the front of the phone (the silver symbol on the front of the clamshell at the bottom is the speaker). The speaker phone is great. There are NO bugs in this phone, the software reacts fast and smooth. Lets you set VIDEOS as screensavers, which is really neat. The camera is as good as it gets for a 1.3 MP camera phone... somthing thats not a necessity for me since i have a DIGITAL CAMERA.
short summary
Great Signal Strength
Nice and Loud
Awesome looking clamshell, just as sexy as any RAZR or BLADE
Bug-Free Software
Awesome Media capabilites
Only CON i can tell is the Vocie Activated Dialing does not recognize names easily. You have to speak quite loud and computer voice-like for it to recognize. AGAIN something thats not a necessity for me since i rarely use it.
thats all, for the price its AMAZING!
Great Phon
LG finally got it right. This phone doesn't have the horrible interface that Verizon gives it and it isn't your basic phone either.
Great reception
Great Key Layout
1.3 Megapixel Camera
Sleek Design
Can't use Memory cards
Picture Mail can be slow
These are the only things keeping me from giving this a 5 rating
This phone is OK. The 1.3 mp camera is good for the price of the phone, but the lack of media player and the inability to text while roaming is a gianormous downfall... (gianormous is my favorite non-word). Bottom line, if your broke, do it. If you can spend the cash, get yourself a phone with a media player so you stick it to those RAZR punks! I recommend the Sanyo-8400. It's the bomb.
Great Phone but speaker??
Hey Guys, I was curious....
Every single flip phone i've had since 2000 that has had a speaker phone on it, you could close the flip and hold the phone while on speaker and the call would not hang up, you would just keep talking and could flip it open and close as much as you want without hanging up.
Why can i NOT do this on the LGLX350????? it has actually been the only con ive had and to me its kinda of a big one, the phone was on a perfect streak until this??? Is there a firmware update avail? is there gonna be one?? Do I just have to live with this? Is this more common than I think??
What gives??
Good phone, But...
I have had this phone for 6 weeks. It does it's job. It makes calls, it searches the web.
But use it for an extended time and you better have gloves on or use the bluetooth. This phone like all LGs I have used get hot with extended use. Alerts for messages goes off only once. This is a pain when you have missed mulitple messages. Cheap, plastic construction. Photos are still well below average. Voice activated dialing sucks. You must speak loudly and it still has problems recognizing the name you are saying .
Accessing web is fast. Good call quality. Holds calls pretty well even in iffy areas.
Summary, Sanyo still rules.
This phone rocks
This phone rocks the only downside is no powervision/mp3/sprint TV
other than that it rocks
i have the a920 this is my wifes phone and sometimes its makes me jealous

Anita and Wolf Gottschalk have been inseparable throughout their 62 years of marriage. But for the past eight months, the elderly couple has been forced to say a heartbreaking goodbye over and over again.
A backlog in the Canadian health care system has made it impossible to move Wolf, 83, out of his transitional nursing home and into the care facility where Anita, 81, is living, their granddaughter Ashley Bartyik says.
Every other day, Bartyik drives Anita the 30 minutes from her Surrey, British Columbia, care complex to Wolf's so she can see her ailing husband. The visits always end in tears for the couple, Bartyik said.
In a Facebook post published Tuesday, Bartyik says her grandfather was diagnosed with dementia and appeals to users to share their story in hopes that it will attract the attention of policymakers, who can help not just her grandparents, but other elderly Canadians who are waiting for subsidized beds, she tells NBC News.

NEW ORDER: "We're in It for the Long Haul"
Were in It for the Long Haul
I ran into an old Movement comrade whom I had not seen in a while.
Hows the NEW ORDER doing? he asked me.
Progress is slow, but were in it for the long haul, I replied.
Indeed, one thing that sets the NEW ORDER apart from most other racialist formations is its realistic sense of perspective regarding the length of time that will elapse before we can put our ideas into effect on a large scale.
While some overly optimistic racialists imagine that the decline of our Race and nation can be reversed in short order, the NEW ORDER is under no such delusion. There is no quick fix and no magic bullet, and there will be no sudden turnaround. When we consider the racial struggle to come, we should think in terms decades and generations, not in terms of news cycles, election cycles or years. And we should plan accordingly.
* * *
In the late 1970s, Matt Koehl was the commander of the National Socialist White Peoples Party. He had taken over party leadership after the assassination of George Lincoln Rockwell a decade earlier. He had achieved considerable success in building up the NSWPP as a mass-oriented political formation. But at some point I do not know exactly when he had a revelation. He came to realize that American Whites (then over 80 percent of the population) were inevitably going to slide to minority status. The demographic trends were such that at some point in the mid-21st the White people of America would be outnumbered in their own country. There was nothing that he or anyone else could do about it.
This farsighted realization was a key factor in his decision to dissolve the NSWPP. He knew that any racialist political party or political strategy that was predicated on Whites being a majority in the US was doomed to failure. Instead, he reorganized the party as vanguard formation the NEW ORDER which would plan for the day when American Whites would be truly besieged.
For this was another insight that Koehl had: that falling to minority status would not be the end of the racial struggle for our people, but only its beginning.
* * *
It saddened me, in a way, to see the naïve enthusiasm with which many well-meaning Movement comrades embraced the candidacy

Cheat Sheet
Aromatherapy For Dummies Cheat Sheet
Aromatherapy is built around the healing properties of essential oils to help treat minor — and even more severe — ailments, enhancing relaxation, and boosting your mental acuity. Buying the right type of oil is important to realize the full benefits of aromatherapy.
Benefits of Essential Aromatherapy Oils
Essential oils enhance both the health and beauty of skin, hair, and nails. Aromatherapy puts these oils to use for their healing benefits for your body and mind. As an added bonus, they smell wonderful when applied to the body!
The following list shows the most important properties found most often in essential oils:
|Kill bacterial, viral, and fungal infections
|Repel bugs
|seal wounds
|Attract a mate
|Reduce inflammation
|Heat the skin in a liniment
|Regulate hormones
|Aid blood circulation and digestion
|Tone and moisturize skin
|Decrease sinus and lung congestion
|Stimulate the immune system
Advantages of Using Medical Aromatherapy
Turn to aromatherapy as a natural alternative instead of using an over-the-counter drug to ease a cold, headache, indigestion, or bee sting — the simple complaints that you already take care of yourself without consulting your doctor. After all, that's what aromatherapy is — a healing therapy. The aroma part of the word refers is to the aromatic plants that are used in this therapy. The following list shows some of the advantages of aromatherapy:
|Work quickly once they're there
|Compact to carry
|Can use with drugs
|Work with, not against you
|Leave your body quickly without residues
|Go directly to the affliction
|Have few side effects
Having the Scents to Relax with Aromatherapy
Aromatherapy is a relaxing therapy. Relaxing fragrances help you deal better with stress and tend to produce slower frequency brain waves. You may not need it, but scents, including those in the following list, additionally have antidepressant properties when you smell them.
|Ylang ylang
Aromatherapy Scents to Help You Think Better
The same essential aromatherapy oils that pep you up and reduce your drowsiness also decrease the likelihood of becoming irritable or of getting headaches. The following list shows the mind-stimulating scents.
How to Buy Essential Aromatherapy Oils
To gain the myriad benefits of aromatherapy, you have to buy the essential oils. Your shopping days will be much easier if you follow these simple tips when choosing which essential oils to buy:
Buy oils from companies who have an established reputation.
Ask: Are they pure? Where do they originate? What are the botanical names?
Be on the look out for synthetic essential oils such as carnation, lilac, strawberry, rain, or cucumber. If so, all the oils in that line may be synthetics.
Check for purity. Put a drop of essential oil on a piece of paper. It should quickly evaporate, leaving no oily mark (an oily mark indicates it's cut with vegetable oil).
Check for quality. Sniff out fuller and rounder scents. A little should go a long way.
Purchase only a small amount of essential oil from a company you haven't tried before to test their quality.

I am disappointed that a committee investigating the prospect of an exam school or an International Baccalaureate program within the Worcester public schools will not recommend the exam school.
An exam school is one in which enrollment is based on the result of a standardized test score, while an IB program requires students to pass exams in six subject areas after the 11th and 12th grade.
There are some understandable concerns in opening an exam school, and Tom Del Prete, director of the Adam Institute for Urban Teaching and School Practice at Clark University, cogently addressed many of them in an �As I See It,� column published in this newspaper on Jan. 30.
If you haven�t read his column, which also discussed alternatives to an exam school, it would be worth your while to do so.
But while I respect Mr. Del Prete�s point of view, as well as the work he has been doing in urban education at Clark University for years now, I am inclined to believe that an exam school in Worcester would be a positive, rather than a negative step.
I am particularly not sold on the suggestion that creating a separate school for some of the brightest students would negatively impact the academic learning environment of the general population.
Some have suggested, for example, that robbing a class of its brightest students will deprive the remaining students of strong academic role models and that classroom teacher the joy of working with top-notch students.
And still others have warned that an exam school, because its enrollment is based on standardized test scores, will not reflect the demographic diversity of the city.
School Committee member Brian A. O�Connell said he has never been comfortable with such reasoning, because while �we have heard comments about what the change would do to other schools, students and teachers, nobody ever seems to say how it would benefit our brightest students,� he said.
�Our students have done well over the years,� he said.
�Many have gone on to excel in college and in life, but there are students who with an additional boost could reach great academic heights, and we really need to test the measure of what they can achieve.�
I agree.
There is a difference, I believe, between ensuring quality educational opportunities for all students and trying to socialize academic aptitude, which is the risk we run when we dismiss the concept of an exam school on the grounds that it might endanger less gifted students.
What if the current academic environment is masking a subculture of underachievement?
What would be the result, for example, if the Worcester public schools were to run a list of its top student performers in Grades 6 through 12, using grade performances, Advanced Placement and SAT results?
Would minority students be prominent among these top performers?
If they were, then there shouldn�t be any concerns about the students� ability to get into an exam school.
On the other hand, would minority students be woefully absent from the top performance list?
Again, if they were, the problem would not be the exam school, but how they are currently being prepared to compete with the best and the brightest.
At the very least, an exam school would give motivated parents and students a goal at which to shoot, particularly if an entry criterion requires applicants to have been enrolled in the Worcester public schools for at least six years.
It is true that the school would be open to a limited number of students, but the educational benefit to everyone who worked to get in would be enormous.

After missing two of the previous three seasons because of a torn right Achilles tendon in 2009 and a shoulder injury in 2011, Ma'ake Kemoeatu played in 15 games in the regular season, making 13 starts.
The 10-year veteran, who started in the Ravens' 24-9 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Sunday's AFC wild-card game, finished the regular season with 29 tackles, two batted passes and one sack (his first since 2005) in the team's regular-season finale against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Kemoeatu, who turned 34 on Thursday, offered his thoughts on his season, the return of inside linebacker Ray Lewis from a torn right triceps and his former coach and current Denver Broncos coach John Fox.
How do you feel your season has gone? Is this how you envisioned it would unfold — with you and Terrence Cody rotating at nose tackle?
Last year, I was just hoping to get on a team. I really wanted to get on the Ravens, and thank God it's worked out. I got to be with the Ravens, and hopefully, I'll be here longer. I'm happy where I'm at. Me and T.C. do our little rotation, and we're both getting rest and we're both getting work. We're both doing things to help the team win. If we can get past Denver this week, maybe we can do more next week. I'm happy where I'm at. Ever since I came here as a rookie, I've always been a Raven and I always will be. So it's good.
When inside linebacker Ray Lewis returned for Sunday's win against the Indianapolis Colts in the AFC wild-card round, was there more of an emphasis on you to keep blockers off Lewis, who was playing in his first game since tearing his right triceps?
Well, my role is to always protect my linebackers. I had to be extra careful and make sure that nobody gets on Ray. I'm just trying to do my job. I'm going to enjoy these games playing with Ray Lewis so that I can tell my kids that I played with the great and legendary Ray Lewis.
You played for John Fox when you were both with the Carolina Panthers. Have you seen elements of that defense in the Denver Broncos' version?
John Fox is a defensive guy, and he's a great guy to play for. He's a players' coach. He's going to motivate his guys. He's obviously done some great things with that defense and helped them improve from last year to this year. It's going to be great. I always look forward to playing against Fox because we've been good friends since he brought me to Carolina. I have great respect for him and what he does.
Game-day forecast
WJZ (Channel13) meteorologist Tim Williams has a chilly forecast for Denver, where the Ravens play today:
"Looks like the Ravens will be challenged to fly in the thin air of Sports Authority Field at Mile High. ... Temperatures will be dropping from a high of 23degrees. Along with a lack of oxygen and pressure, expect flurries and temps falling into the mid-teens."

NEW YORK — The make-or-break moment came with two outs in the seventh inning. Score tied. Bases loaded. Alex Rodriguez in a week-and-a-half slump. It was one at-bat to decide a game and assure the New York Yankees that, yes, there is at least some playoff hope remaining.
Rodriguez sent a game-winning home run to right-center field, the decisive blow in a 5-1 win against the San Francisco Giants on Friday night at Yankee Stadium. It was Rodriguez's 24th career grand slam, breaking a tie with Lou Gehrig for the most all-time and snapping Rodriguez out of a 1-for-25 skid.
Oh, and it kept the Yankees afloat with only eight games to play.
BOX SCORE: Yankees 5, Giants 1
STANDINGS: Yanks still in tight wild-card race
"I don't know if we can afford to lose any more games," manager Joe Girardi said. "That's the bottom line at this point. I kind of look at every game from here on out as extremely, extremely important. We needed it."
Just hours after pitcher Andy Pettitte announced his intention to retire at the end of the season, the Yankees got vintage performances out of Rodriguez and CC Sabathia.
Rodriguez delivered the big hit, and Sabathia allowed one run through seven-plus innings, arguably his best start of the second half.
"One hundred percent, everybody in here feels that (urgency)," Sabathia said. "It's time to go. We need to try to win out."
Part of that urgency is Rodriguez playing through a tight hamstring and a sore calf, injuries that might leave him benched for a few days were the Yankees not in such a desperate situation, fighting with five other teams for two wild-card spots.
NO MO: Mariano Rivera's legendary career nears close
Girardi said he noticed Rodriguez running better than he had been in several days, and that gave some sense of hope heading into that seventh-inning at-bat, when the Giants pulled starter Tim Lincecum and brought in reliever George Kontos, a former Yankees prospect traded two years ago for Chris Stewart.
Rodriguez unloaded on a 2-1 fastball for his second hit and first home run in a week and a half.
"I think my legs are getting better," he said. "I've been missing the balls, a lot of high towering fly balls, and I thought my legs were a little better today. ... That's baseball. One swing can turn a lot of things around."
That's the hope anyway, because a make-or-break moment in one game isn't worth much for the Yankees at this point unless it leads to something bigger in the next week and a half.
"Why couldn't we (win out)?" Sabathia said. "Anything can happen. We've got the guys in here. You saw what happened tonight, and hopefully we can just keep playing well."

Reward Offered in McLennan County Elk Dumping Case
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Game Wardens were asked by the McLennan County Sheriff's Office July 12, 2006, to assist in the investigation of the illegal dumping of nine elk carcasses in a field just off County Road 2311 near Tours in the northeast portion of the county.
A witness has provided a partial description of a vehicle and trailer seen at the location on Tuesday.
The eight cow elk and one young bull elk had no bullet wounds or other discernable injuries. Blood and tissue samples were collected at the scene by a veterinarian representing the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the Texas Animal Health Commission (TAHC). Test results have not been received.
Beyond the illegal dumping of the carcasses, of major concern is the illegal transport of the animals and the potential for introduction of disease, including Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) into Texas.
CWD has not thus far been detected in Texas.
The TAHC imposes strict entry requirements for livestock and exotic hoofed stock entering the state. Since January 2006 TAHC regulations require radio frequency identification (RFID) and movement documentation on elk moved within the borders of Texas.
Additionally, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) regulations prohibit the transportation of white-tailed and mule deer into Texas.
Anyone with information about this case, or on the illegal movement of any elk or deer within Texas, is requested to report it via the Operation Game Thief REWARD HOTLINE - 800 792-GAME.
Callers may remain anonymous and are eligible for a reward of up to $1,000 upon conviction of the violator.
