Janet Peter will be helping out in the shop for the next few weeks, and she brought some beautiful new cards with her!

Stop by our Tor Cove shop to pick one up from the artist herself, see our presses in action, and browse our great selection of books 10am - 5pm (except Tuesdays).
Six colourful monoprint cards by Janet Peter. There are two seaside landscapes with seabirds; a colourful vase of flowers; thin trees growing on a rocky hill; and three scenes with crows in the trees with phrases like "one for sorrow" "two for joy". Adam, a young white man in a Metallica shirt, with curly brown hair and beard, operating a vintage printing press. You can see rows of cards he's already printed, laid out to dry behind him.

This is a super sad day. Dolly Parton has gone to the angels. She made the world a better place. The angels will be singing tonight.

It's always lovely to get a little something in the mail.

Surprise a friend with a note in a beautiful letterpress card! We've got a great selection by local artists in our Tors Cove shop. You can also find them on our website www.runningthegoat.com
Six cards. One has a colourful bouquet of flowers; one has the words "love is a four-legged word" printed on it in pink and black with small images of cats, dogs, deer, and an elephant printed in red; one has three black cats sitting up tall with their backs to you, against a blue background; one has a fancy yellow sun; and one has a black and white image of a Newfoundland dog and a beaver shaking hands

Now what the Flyers can't do is park the bus the rest of the way. They have to keep up a strong forecheck like the 4th line did on the second goal and not just try to defense their way to a win.

Cam York can relax about a lawsuit. Sounds like the most damage the flying stick from his celebration did was a bruised hand from blocking it. And everyone in that section went home happy.

Folks,

I plan to create an Introduction to Cancer Public Course for free access (using videos, streamlined public meetings/forums, etc.)

Topics will span the entire story (from basic biology to advocacy), my 20+ yrs of learnings

What do you think?

Veterans like Sean Couturier and Travis Sanheim showed the way. Then, the kids settled in and stepped up to match. And as a team -- veterans and kids -- the Flyers stifled one of the best offenses in hockey to take a 1-0 series lead:

Vets step up, kids look more than ready as stifling defensive effort carries Flyers to Game 1 win - PHLY Sports
The vets led the way. The kids adjusted, adapted, provided the necessary support. And as a result, the Flyers are up 1-0 over the Penguins in their best-of-seven series.
