The Onts

Dan Greenburg
Nobody wants to adopt the Shluffmuffin twins. Wally's feet stink something awful, and Cheyenne is allergic to e verything . Then why are the Mandible sisters so eager to take them home? And what sort of old maids would choose to live in a place called Dripping Fang Forest, where zombies wander the woods singing "Itsy Bitsy Spider" and ten-foot-long glowing slugs want to suck the feet right off your ankles? Would it seem ungrateful of Wally to point out the Mandible sisters' extra arms? Or to question their all-chocolate, all-the-time menu? Or, um, to venture into the cellar, where the twins have been told to NEVER, EVER, EVER go? Yeah, perhaps that last bit was a mistake. Now there's nothing left for the Shluffmuffins to do but run--run for their lives!

Regarding intersections

Goldblatt, David
The renowned South African photographer David Goldblatt explores the aftermath of Apartheid in and beyond Johannesburg. Since 1999, Goldblatt has focused primarily on large-format colour works, landscapes and cityscapes that capture not only the country's fragile social structure but also its austere vistas and vibrant hues. His urban images document the ostentatious developments in and around Johannesburg as well as scenes of the everyday life of people who make their living within the city. His rural images capture the seductive vastness of the landscape, the damage done to the land by the mining industry and the dignity of the people living off the land. His photographs reveal the contrasts that represent South Africa: white and black, rural and urban, desperate and hopeful.

It is the book of Bible which bases its case on pure reason. The only other Biblical book which is a severely critical of the orthodox theology of the time is the 'Book of Job'. There are many sections of the Bible which attempt to interpret life retionally. But no other Biblical book examines reality with the candor and the clarity that mark the words of Koheles, the old retired professor who lived and wrote in Jerusalem about the beginning of the second pre-Christian century.-
