Heads or Tales

Column by Mark Jabo. Heads or Tales is a weekly column that brings an amusing, if slightly cynical, perspective to world events. The column takes particular delight in skewering the pompous and championing the clever. Sure, the column has a problem with authority ...but at least it has a sense of humor about it.

Ignorance Inc.

Life in Britain

Column by Andrea Lutz. Being German, I recently spent 1.5 years in the UK, from September 2005 until January 2007. I lived in Nottingham, East Midlands, for a year, studying an MA programme in linguistics and also working in a wonderful part-time job. Following that, I had the pleasure of spending another four months at the west coast of Scotland, working and cohabiting with a rather typical Scottish male. Both environments gave me an excellent opportunity to study British life and culture. This experience has been a real eye-opener for me, teaching me many things not only about the UK, but also about my own home country and my identity as a German. I would like to share all of this with readers of The Cheers.

Necessary Roughness

Column by Trace Hacquard. "Necessary Roughness" is a look at life through the mind of a young, disgruntled pseudo-intellectual who finds himself knee-deep in insanity in most situations. "Roughness" looks at the worlds of entertainment, sports, and politics and finds where the lines that separate become blurred.

Off the Cuff

Column by John Deeds. When the politics of the world tend to overwhelm you into a tailspin of anger and bewilderment, and you feel a tie-raid coming on, you can always count on some inkling of a truth coming, just 'off the cuff.'

Shooter's War

Column by Caleb Schaber. Caleb "Shooter" Schaber calls his style of writing as a war correspondent "Ghetto Journalism", meaning he does not have a web of money behind him like other journalists. Not funded by corporate media, Schaber works mostly off donations by a community of friends and fans, uses donated equipment and more than half the time is not paid for his writing, but keeps up the work because few others cover the war from this angle. A cross between Ernie Pyle and Hunter S. Thompson, Schaber started his career as a Gonzo journalist over ten years ago in Seattle. He lived and worked in Afghanistan for eight months in 2005. This is Schaber's forth trip to Iraq in the last three years. He will be traveling around Iraq, meeting soldiers and the Iraqi people, for the next two months.

Sweet Grace

Column by Israel Jayakaran.

Technology Corner

Column by Humberto Rodriguez. To paraphrase Mark Twain, technology is advancing at such a fast pace that it is here and gone half way around the world before I have had a chance to get my pants on. So in self defense, I write this column to try and make sense of and to learn the highlights of those new things that so profoundly affect all our lives. I hope you will benefit from reading it as much as I do from writing it.

The Writing Life—The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Column by Margaret Gelbwasser. When I left my full-time teaching job to pursue freelance writing I knew only two things. One, I was unhappy teaching in a public school and two, I had always wanted to write. I was under no illusion that freelance writing would be easy but also did not know how to go about it or what this new world would entail. So, I made a plan. I took classes. I wrote, and wrote, and wrote and learned the politics of this field (yes, EVERY job has politics). Now, 2.5 years later, I am doing what I wanted. It has its pros and cons, but what doesn’t? My goal of this column is to help you on your writing journey and give you the support and answers I did not always have.

Travelwise

Column by Henk Luf.

Up and About

Column by Serban . We love to move around, we love to work, we love to meet new people, we even love to step in dog doo-doo on our way to work, even only because we are one step closer to the morning coffee, because all these show that WE ARE ALIVE. And we love to be alive. Moving around in the urban jungle always brings on new experiences and funny stories, sharp and inspirational conclusions and individual projections. This column will tell you about some of my experiences in the living jungle and some of the ways the animal in me moves about.
