<title>The Real Ozzie</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1371_The-Real-Ozzie.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Yes, Ozzie, he’s the man. Finally an Ozzie that America can fear. Forget about Ozzy Osbourne. The man looked like a special education reject with that damn reality show of his. And the last album, Down to Earth should have been called Flung to Mars, because it sucked big time. You would think putting musicians like Zakk Wylde, Robert Trujillo, and Mike Brodin would make magic, but instead it was kind of like the time Geraldo Rivera opened Al Capone’s secret vault, an empty room. 

But with Ozzie, you can count on one thing for sure. He will always say what is on his mind no matter what. He doesn’t give a shit about who gets offended, and I believe that is a great quality in a person. I respect Ozzie. I liked him when he was a player, and love him as a manager. Finally, the White Sox have someone who they can be proud of in the dugout.

<title>The winds of Mother Nature feed our passion to make ever lasting memories</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1180_The-winds-of-Mother-Nature-feed-our-passion-to-make-ever-lasting-memories.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[It was about 12:30pm Easter Monday up at Willow Beach, Lake Simcoe, Ontario, Canada. Not much wind, but building to about 15-20km/hr north easterly. It's foggy, so the visibility on the distant shoreline is gone. Nothing to be seen in the distance as the grey ice and patchy surface disappears into the fog. A few runs with my kite and skis offshore to check out the conditions left behind from a season of wind blown refrozen ice. The occasional piece of soft melting ice jutting from the surface was left between the occasional patch of slush/snow. Farther in the distance less and less snow patches yielding to a sold grey ice, now with an ever so thin patch of surface water from the recent warm temperatures. ]]></description>

<title>Bungee jumping: Taking the plunge</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1168_Bungee-jumping-Taking-the-plunge.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[December, 20, anno domini 2004 was the day I finally put into practice a plan I had had for several years already: to do a bungee jump. Being in New Zealand, the paradise for tough adrenaline junkies, I felt that the setting was just right. There was only one problem: I am naturally a terrible chicken. Therefore, I made sure there was no way for me to bottle out again. I told several friends about my plan, and one of those friends even came along with me to perform a jump himself.]]></description>

<title>Growing Up as a Surfer in Arizona</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1049_Growing-Up-as-a-Surfer-in-Arizona.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[An inland wave pool was a good thing for me in Arizona as a teenager. It gets really hot here in the summer and what better way to cool off than to surf some waves. It was kind of funny looking back on this. There were many of us who were so serious about surfing here. There were some fights, but what I do remember most is how we would all converge here during the "surf sessions" that Big Surf would have during the day (and night).]]></description>

<title>Why Ontario is quickly becoming a world class winter kiting destination</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1048_Why-Ontario-is-quickly-becoming-a-world-class-winter-kiting-destination.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[For about 3-4 months every winter, the fresh water lakes around Ontario consistently freeze. This usually happens in parallel with the ski resorts being open. If it's cold enough to make snow then it's cold enough for the lakes to freeze. The wind riding season usually starts mid to late December, sometimes even as early as late November and runs until the beginning of April.]]></description>

<title>The art of Kitesnowboarding</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1020_The-art-of-Kitesnowboarding.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[If you enjoy kitesurfing, making high jumps in moderate to strong wind, you definitely want to try kitesnowboarding.  Kitesnowboarding is identical to kitesurfing especially if you use bidirectional board in kitesurfing.  The difference is that you are likely to enjoy kitesnowboarding all by yourself on a snowy field or a frozen lake, there is nobody there to tell you not to jump high or to go fast and you don't have to wait 1/2 hour for the ski lift nor having to pay for it.]]></description>

<title>How extreme is power kiting?</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1019_How-extreme-is-power-kiting.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[For many people, their first experience to power kiting is usually from a piece of media; photo, video, or brochure. Sometime this can be a real turn off as it may portray an extreme adrenaline sport minded athlete doing incredible jumps, tricks and possibly speed. True those people exist in the sport of power kiting and they've likely been riding for quite some time, but it all has to start somewhere. Of course what would the ads be like if it didn't look like something really exciting?]]></description>

<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1018_The-growth-of-a-winter-wind-rider-and-some-common-myths-dispelled.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[Growing up in Ontario and attending high school, once or twice a year we got to go skiing. It was never quite enough to really get the skill down. It always felt year after year as though you were starting over again. But what excitement it was. As a child, skiing down those Ontario hills, they seemed so big. I think it just wet my appetite for more.]]></description>

<title>A Primer on Winter Wind Riding</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_1016_A-Primer-on-Winter-Wind-Riding.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[For many people that live where lakes freeze and snow covers the ground, outdoor winter activities are limited to the weekend ice skate or pilgrimage to the local ski/snowboard or cross-country resort. For a growing number of winter wind riders the thought of frozen lakes and snow covered terrain is welcomed with anticipation and excitement. It’s time again to sharpen your skis, wax your snowboard and check the lines on your kite. Did you say kite?]]></description>

That would be correct; there is nothing to be afraid of, if you place your life into perspective.  After all everyone needs a wakeup call and a lesson in humility, once in a while.]]></description>

<title>Polar Triangle (Part Two of Three)</title>
<link>http://www.thecheers.org/article_215_Polar-Triangle-Part-Two-of-Three.html</link>
<description><![CDATA[I went to the tourist office of Arjeplog.  Far up in the north is Arjeplog, rjepluovve. The name Arjeplog comes from the old Sami language  "arjep" (a lot /mycket) and  "luogt" (rocks/stenigt).  In the great forests. By the mountain ranges. Among thousands of lakes. Peter made it his mission to show me his favorite municipality and made sure that there was not a second of boredom.  I had an interview today -  the local paper, The Times...Arjeplog Times.  It is strange not to do the interviewing but to be on other side, all though I should be used to it.
