THANK YOU for supporting The Cheers Magazine with your readership and responses as we developed the site from nothing to something. Now it’s time to give the site a facelift for both visual appeal and content.
We have started on the visual. The look and feel should now be simpler, less cluttered. And, it should work on all browsers, and improve your reading enjoyment.
Next is the content. In the back office (behind the staff lunchroom and past the vending machine), we are hard at work preparing for the launch of our new content format - the Theme Park. The Theme Park will be the place where our editors, journalists and contributors develop stories and interesting content that matches and reflects the pulse of the world. Examples of politics, humor, art, life, movies and social comment will be presented within the theme for the month – and we feel that you will appreciate how many facets of life are interwoven, regardless of subject. It’s funny how something you’ve read recently comes up in conversation – and it would be great to say that you read it on The Cheers Magazine website!
As always, we encourage your feedback. We exist because you read and enjoy what you see.
It’s an exciting period in the early history of this young magazine and we want to share that excitement along with your involvement.
Saving the Tigers from extinction It was a hurriedly organized citizen’s meeting at Guwahati Press Club, where serious concerns were expressed at the increasing trend of poaching and killing of wildlife in various parts of Assam.
The EIP factor - what you should learn from it When we grow older, or get older for the sake of the argument, we tend to start seeing the world only from one side. We tend to believe, no, not believe but know, how things are done. If you are smart, you understand that it shouldn't be that way, you understand this is wrong.
Whether we want to admit it or not, even now, in year 2012, there are still big gender biases in some fields of life. While it's generally understandable that men should do more heavy lifting than women and knitting fits a bit better for the women (even though I am aware even here there are many people who want to disagree), art is one of those things where our gender really should not play any significant role at all. And within the past decade things have started to change even on this front and even on the more conservative arenas such as Bukowskis - the top Nordic auction house.
