VALLIS NONFICTION EXCITED AND FULL OF THE CONFIDENCE OF YOUTH, TOTALLY BLIND RUTH arrived in London, England, to study Physiotherapy. She spoke the same language, was domestically independent, and had good mobility skills: how hard could this be? As it turns out, far more difficult than she could have ever imagined, but Ruth was determined to succeed. People who are blind face many challenges, but perhaps the biggest obstacle is the low expectations of others. You can let those who don’t understand you define who you are, or you can ignore them and follow your dreams—as Ruth did. “Love is Blind” is the memoir of Ruth Vallis. Blind before the age of 3, Ruth was the youngest pioneer of integration in the public school system in Canada, blazing a trail for many to follow. At every stage of her extraordinary life, Ruth defied the low expectations of others, and took on such challenges as biking from Ottawa to Toronto, completing a Master’s of Science degree online before technology accessibility was legislated, and more. Through it all there was her tender, tough- loving mother, Peach, offering encouragement, support and humour to overcome enormous challenges. Discover the power of women working together for good. See how obstacles can become stepping stones. Laugh, cry and be inspired!■ www.ruthvallis.com Featured on Reader’s Digest UK, Talk of Alabama on ABC, WREG News Channel 3, and Kelly and Company. “[Ruth Vallis] astutely describes the hurdles posed by blindness and the inspiring manner in which she overcame them...

IT WAS MAY 2017. AT the time, John and Donna Corrigan were looking forward to the publication of John’s debut non-fiction title about the Red Knight. John had spent twenty- four years doing meticulous research on the Royal Canadian Air Force’s legendary solo-aerobatic jet performer. But, suddenly, that lump plunged the couple into a race for a diagnosis and prayers for an effective treatment. “Love Always” chronicles the many efforts and lessons learned on a journey that consumed the Corrigans for eighteen months. During that period, Donna endured two rounds of chemotherapy, a radical mastectomy, and twenty-five radiation treatments, followed by more radiation before she finally succumbed to Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC), a rare and aggressive form of the disease. Written with the hope of helping others on their breast cancer journey, “Love Always” lays out the challenges and hopes for couples and families facing a potentially terminal breast cancer diagnosis. It isn’t pretty, but it shows there is a community of loving support, from family, friends, health care professionals and even strangers, making it possible to move through the bleakest of times with love, hope, and the knowledge that we are never alone■ www.facebook.com/BooksByJohnCharlesCorrigan www.johncharlescorrigan.com “A plainspoken and extensively detailed account of cancer treatment and the pain of loss...

(average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Enhanced! The Baltic Capitals & St. Petersburg itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: What I love about the little town of Harmi, Estonia, is that it has a lot of heart. Its residents came together to save their local school, and now it’s a thriving hub for community events. Harmi is a new partner of our Grand Circle Foundation, and you’ll live a Day in the Life here, visiting the school and a family farm, and sharing a farm-to-table lunch with our hosts. I love the outdoors and I love art, so my walk in the woods with O.A.T. Trip Experience Leader Inese turned into something extraordinary when she led me along the path called the “Witches Hill” in Lithuania. It’s populated by 80 wooden sculptures of witches, faeries, and spirits that derive from old pagan beliefs. You’ll go there, too (and I bet you’ll be as surprised as I was to learn how prevalent those pagan practices still are.) I was also surprised—and saddened—to learn how terribly the Baltic people were persecuted during the Soviet era.

  • Welcome Tofriesens!
    welcome to friesens! While at Friesens, we want your color approval experience to be a pleasant one. While we view every project that enters our plant as important, having you in- house for a Press Check on your project provides a unique, interactive opportu- nity for our employee-owners to better meet and hopefully exceed your highest print expectations. If you are doing a Press Check for the first time, the task may appear to be a daunting one. However, rest assured we’ve done it many, many times and we will use that experience to make it seem like you’ve been doing Press Checks forever. If you're a Press Check 'veteran', we look forward to your input and collaboration. EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION PRESSCHECKSThe key to a smooth Press Check is communication. We will meet with you before your Press Check begins to discuss your particular objectives. We will ask you if you want help from our Press Operators and if you know what is–and what is not –possible on press. Please feel free to ask any questions about terms, procedures and events that you don’t understand. Page sequence, color registration and marks are common concerns. If there are some critical elements of a book that need special attention, be sure to let our operator know. All information you give to us is valuable…so please don’t hold back. If there is more than one person coming to do the Press Check, it is helpful for our operators to have a clear understanding of who will make the final decision, as we all see color a little differently.
