I've got a couple of U of T degree certificates that I would like
to have framed, with mats, etc.  Can anyone recommend a good place
in the downtown area to get this done?  Is there a place (maybe on
campus) that does the "standard" U of T framing, whatever that is?

Thanks in advance ...

For all intents and purposes, a tortishell is considered the same as a calico.
They have much the same type of personality (I find that they are wonderful
cats at home with their owners, but bring them to the clinic, and watch out!),
and they are 99% female, with the few males being sterile.

It's for these reasons that most people consider them tri-coloured cats,
although some may not have any white/beige on their fur. White is a very
common secondary colour, but with the exception of "true" tabby markings (ie,
the original brown/beige/black striped cats), and calico/tortishell, that's
usually all it is, a secondary colour. Most cats are only bi-coloured, or 
mono-coloured (is that the right word??).

Well, the funny thing is that after seeing over 5000 cats in my life (I worked
in a vet clinic for several years), I've never seen a two colour cat that had
orange and something other than white as it's secondary colour. Ie, I've never
seen an orange and black cat only, or an orange and grey, as mentioned here. I
do notice that many people misdescribe the colours of their cats. I recently
adopted a black tabby (tabby, with black being the predominant colour), but 
before I saw her, I was told that she was calico (a tri-coloured cat, mixing
white, orange and black or grey). And the person who told me she was calico
was another vet tech!

how can you play pool and not smoke?

i thought it was in the rules.

seriously though, if you find a place with a table in the front and a table in
the back, one of them is usually a little less smoky.

try the Rat's Ass Saloon, 222 Richmond.  the front table is near the door,
so there is a reasonable amount of air flow.

they have a pool tourney every monday night ($100 1st prize, no entry fee)

Any recommendations of dealers in town?

I was recently invited to a presentation by a Toronto based vacation
club called TaraNova.  It is NOT a Timeshare, where you are limited to the
same week and place every year.  However, like a timeshare, the idea is
that owning is better than renting.  This club owns a number of resorts
and members can choose a week per year at any resort and at any time.  The
club also belongs to a international organization which allows you to trade
your week for a week at another club's resort.  This gives access to over
2000 vacation resorts worldwide, however there is an additional fee for
booking through this service.

Are there any members of this or similar organizaions out there?
What experiences and/or other information does anyone have?

Any responses would be appreciated.  I can summarize if anyone is interested.

My landlady has a cat she is looking to place in a good home. She has had him
for over a year now, but is busy and not in the best of health, and feels that
she is not giving him the attention and care that he needs. This is not an
emergency situation, but she would like to place him in a good home fairly
soon. He is a:

domestic short hair
male
neutered
5+ years old (approx)
fully vaccinated with certificate
indoor
black
fat
well mannered and housetrained, with no bad habits
named "Mister" at the current time

I can speak for all of the above, as I fostered him for several months, after
I found him as a stray with a severe eye infection. He lost one eye due to
this infection (caused by a air-rifle pellet in his eye), but he is not gross
or disfigured, just lopsided... :)

If you are willing to give this fellow a good *permanent* home, please call me
at 322-3606 evenings, or reply by email to this account.

 Yes, however, the 'general' refers to 'cdf-related general', - that's
