Примерно двенадцать лет требуется современным филологам, чтобы полностью изучить грамматику санскрита, по праву считающимся самым древним и самым сложным языком мира.
Для приверженцев современной теории исторического развития человеческого общества будет сложно свыкнуться с мыслью, что более шести тысяч лет назад «дикарские», как повелось думать, племена, населявшие районы нынешней Индии и Ирана, говорили на языке, в котором насчитывается 8 падежей; три числа: единственное, двойственное и множественное (двойственное число наиболее актуально для обозначения частей человеческого тела, например «глаза» в русском языке во множественном числе, в санскрите же – в двойственном, если только не подразумевается третий глаз, медитативный); три рода: мужской, женский и средний.
Склонения в санскрите распадаются по типам на склонения существительных, оканчивающихся на гласный, на согласный, односложные и многосложные, на тематические и атематические и т.д. Глаголы делятся на 10 классов по типу образования спрягаемой основы. Имеется два залога, действительный и средний. В санскрите десять времен и наклонений, производные глагольные основы. Так же, как и для существительных, у глаголов есть три числа для трех лиц.
Все книги Ведического канона составлены на этом языке. Первым санскритским филологом, чье имя сохранила для нас история, был Панини, который сумел так систематизировать правила языка в коротких афоризмах, что до сих пор его метод является самым простым и успешным для укрощения этого филологического монстра. Изначально все знание Вед передавалось из уст в уста, вот почему первые письменные памятники ведической культуры датируются «лишь» 3000 годом до н.э..
Прославленный составитель и редактор Вед, Шрила Вьясадева, записал все Веды, Пураны, Махабхарату, после чего, по наказу своего духовного учителя Нарады Муни, подарил миру «Шримад-Бхагаватам», ставший комментарием на его же «Веданта-сутру», философское произведение, где раскрывается природа Абсолютной Истины. Письменность санскрита носит название «деванагари», что значит «почерк полубогов». Именно этим шрифтом, как гласит предание, пользуются на высших планетах нашей вселенной.
Санскрит по праву считается праязыком, от которого произошли языки различных народов мира, в том числе и русский. Сходству наиболее близких к санскриту хинди и бенгали с русским удивлялся еще Афанасий Никитин, который, находя много общих слов, без труда общался с индусами.

The stacked, terraced dilapidated flats of Mongkok are beautiful. I'm vaguely reminded of Gustav Mahler, who I am told composed his music in slabs, although compared to old houses in China these Mongkok apartment buildings have an excess of glass (but too little lighting that's visible from the street) that's part of what makes them so wonderful. I prefer the older 3-4 story buildings with fluorescent lighting. The visual stacked effect of the building allows for this camera design to be made up of many cameras in a similar stacked disorganized fashion.
Camera features:
- exterior modeled on a building on Shanghai Street.
- rooftop haiku-styled camera sight (versus a vf) made with bamboo, netting, and cellphone towers.
- a central haiku-styled gap viewfinder
- levels for SLR, rangefinder and pinhole units which offset the lightweight plastic housing materials used. Windows open for the lens. Paper fragments and tape is used for filters and hoods.
- strap and carrying handle made of telephone cable wire and bamboo-simulated scaffolding.
- hvac units contain focusing mechanisms for the cameras as well as internal viewfinders to selected floors where one can peer inside to see various single-room occupancy units.
- clotheslines, garments, plants are provided with rubber cement to decorate the exterior as you please.
- both incandescent and fluorescent units for lighting the ground floor bakeries and upper tenement housing floors.

Introduction
Most people in the religious world believe thatthe Bible is the canon of Christianity, that one must hold on to the Bible and base one's belief in the Lord entirely on the Bible, and that one cannot be called a believer if one departs from the Bible. So is a belief in the Lord and a belief in the Bible one and the same? What exactly is the relationship between the Bible and the Lord? The Lord Jesus once reprimanded the Pharisees with these words, "Search the scriptures; for in them you think you have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. And you will not come to me, that you might have life" (John 5:39-40). The Bible is merely a testimony of God, but it does not contain eternal life. Only God is the truth, the way and the life. In that case, how do we look at the Bible in a way that accords with the Lord's will?

Cut-paper postcard created for the swapbot swap: "C+P Stripes."
A change of pace for me: just random imagery. I pulled out five scraps that happened to be on my work table: art deco design, robots, photo of red amaryllis, strawberries, and newspaper mélange, and cut them into strips. Then I used a random number generator to determine what order they'd be pasted down in. I do like randomness!
Not too many things say Americana more than baseball...

This photograph is part of a set that has been created to celebrate the opening of South Tyneside Council’s new leisure centre, Haven Point, on 28 October. It focuses in particular on life along the foreshore at South Shields during the 1950s but also includes a few images from further down the coast.
South Shields has long been a popular seaside resort and also has a proud industrial heritage. Times have changed, though, and many of the old industries such as shipbuilding and coal mining have disappeared. Rather than stand still and accept this change in fortunes, South Tyneside Council is pressing ahead with an ambitious vision to transform the Foreshore, Town Centre and Riverside areas into vibrant destinations. Haven Point is a key part of this change.
Tyne & Wear Archives and South Tyneside Local Studies Library have a vital role to play in this. As South Shields is regenerated and forever changed the Archives and Local Studies serve as its memory. We keep alive a window into the town’s past, preserving the history of people, places and industries that no longer exist. South Shields must look forward but its sense of direction will be lost if it forgets where it came from.
These images, together with a fantastic selection from South Tyneside Local Studies Library, can be seen in a digital exhibition at Haven Point. You can also see images from the Local Studies Library online at www.southtynesideimages.org.uk/.
