Although somewhat nervous and shy, fluffy Nina shows promise that she will blossom into a loving companion with a patient, experienced owner. She has earned the nickname "Lady" because of her regal poise and nature. She will sit patiently in another room and wait for her canned food to be brought to her, rather than come asking for it. She also loves Temptations treats. She is very low maintenance, but likes to be talked to when passing by her in a hallway or in a room. She will sometimes respond with more of a kitten-like "chirp" which makes her all the more adorable.
In a home environment, Nina mainly likes to keep to herself and her feline companions. Nina loves to play with kittens and one of her favourite past times is to hunt the laser pointer. Nina has lived in a foster home that has other cats of all ages, and dogs. While she is tolerant of the canine residents, she would do best in a home without them. It is not known if she will like small children, so it would be better if she went to a home with adults only.
While she would be fine on her own, Nina would benefit more if she had a feline friend in her home to continue helping her adapt and socialize. She will be a great addition to any family - she needs time, love and treats! Please open your heart and home to this fluffy little lady.
Our mission is to rescue and find homes for abandoned, sick or injured cats from situations of abuse, neglect or imminent euthanasia.
Our vision is for Toronto to be a city in which no adoptable cat is killed and rescue organizations such as Toronto Cat Rescue are no longer needed.
Our registered charity number: 889-198-727-RR-0001
An adoption counsellor will return your call and give you more details about the cat you are interested in and ask some questions about your home to make sure the cat will be a "purr-fect" fit. We are happy to answer any questions you may have as well.
You will be supplied with the foster home address to have a meet and greet with your kitty. If both parties are happy, you can sign the TCR Contract of Adoption, pay the adoption fee and take your cat home with you in a safe carrying case.
Adoption fee is $175 per cat. This ensures that the cats that come into our care receive the attention they need, are spayed or neutered, and receive a rabies vaccination at the appropriate age. It includes 6 weeks of free pet insurance. For City of Toronto residents, the adoption fee includes a mandatory City of Toronto cat license that is valid for one year. As you can imagine, these fees only begin to cover our costs; donations and ongoing fundraising efforts carry us the rest of the way!
1. ALL senior cats (8 years or older) have an adoption fee of the adopters choice, vs. our standard adoption fee of $175.
2. Our adoption fee for an adult bonded pair (8 months or older) is $100 per cat vs. $175 per cat.
Thank You!
Your message has been sent to Toronto Cat Rescue.
You'll receive a copy, too, at to help you keep track of which pets you've inquired about, and which shelters and rescues you've emailed.
NOTE: Some shelters have physical locations you can visit; some of these shelters may only have pets for a limited time, so please do not wait for a reply—just go visit the shelter! Other organizations are rescue groups run by busy volunteers who may take a while to reply. You can find information about the shelter or rescue group caring for this pet, and their adoption procedures, on the pet's details page on Adopt-a-Pet.com.

Delivery of Cargo to Carrier Creates Quasi-Contract
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit ruled that a quasi-contract is created when the shipper delivers cargo to the carrier for ocean transportation. In the instant case, the shipper contracted with (and paid) a freight forwarder for shipment of its cargoes from the United States to Syria. The bills of lading were not signed by the shipper. The shipper delivered the cargoes directly to the carrier's vessels at the pier in Texas. The cargoes were transported and delivered in good order. The shipper paid the freight forwarder, which went out of business and failed to pay the carrier. The carrier then sued the shipper. The court held that, under federal common law, a quasi-contract (or contract implied in law) will be held to exist where a party has performed as expected and payment is necessary so as to enable justice to be accomplished, even where no formal contract existed between the parties.

Fellow Passengers: This week's Primary Passage* (Matthew 21:18-32) transports me to the streets of Verona, where two bawdy servants of the house of Capulet, Gregory and Samson, are bantering about ways they can conquer and humiliate the house of Montegue. They see two Montague servants approaching, and plot a way to provoke a fight, without breaking the law. They decide on the tried and true Spanish fig curse, aka giving a fig, aka biting the thumb, the obscenity of which is a bit vague to American readers but has something to do with parts of the nether region. Shakespeare undoubtedly knew what the obscenity referred to, and so did his characters, as the gesture did provoke a fight that grew into a street brawl between Montagues and Capulets, better known as the families of Romeo and Juliet, and thus begins scene one of the famous tragedy.
Matthew is here writing his own tragedy of sorts, a tragedy that will eventually turn into the comedy of resurrection. And in the vein of Romeo and Juliet, he is scripting a family feud. It is not how we have come to view it, though, as a feud between the house of Judaism and the house of Christianity. Despite the claims of centuries of supersessionist theology, this was an internal feud within the Jewish family, with Jesus as a full-blooded member of the house of Abraham battling his brothers and sisters and cousins in the faith. But it was a bitter battle nonetheless, as factions were competing on how best to restore dignity and honor to the family that had suffered bitter defeat and Roman occupation. Most of the factions shared one thing in common: an allegiance to the temple system as the center of economic, political, and spiritual power. Jesus came along preaching something different, and just prior to this week's passage he had gone into the heart of that temple and turned the tables on its system. And now we see him following that revolutionary direct action with a symbolic action no less direct: cursing the fig tree. The fig tree held special symbolic space throughout the Hebrew scriptures, especially for the prophets, who saw the tree as a symbol of fruitful blessing when the covenant community was faithful, and the curse of judgment when the community went astray. Here a hungry Jesus goes to a tree when it is in leaf, expecting some of the early fruits that come before the full bloom season of figs, but those early fruits that foreshadow the coming full blown fruits are not there. The tree is barren. And so he gives it a fig, as the bard would say, and it withers. For Jesus, the entire structure of temple worship was barren and fruitless, only producing leaves of violence, greed, oppression, and discrimination, but not fruits of love, mercy, compassion, and grace. It's withering away meant that the Jewish people would be free to recover a true sense of their original covenant faith, outside of the temple's power. And free of that system, the people who really needed God's grace, the despised publicans and prostitutes, would be strolling into the kingdom and working in the vineyard ahead of the priestly class.
It's interesting that the European curse, giving a fig, is based somehow on a symbolic flaunting of the reproductive organs, the means to generating new life. Spiritually speaking, we can talk about the means to reproduce the fruit of the spirit of Jesus, the love, the peace, the grace, the joy, the mercy. And it's interesting that in American slang, the curse has morphed into I don't give a fig which means you don't care about something; it's not worth messing with. Maybe it's time we recovered that Shakespearean use of the phrase, and in the spirit of Jesus, really give a fig about things that do matter. Maybe with the authority of Jesus, we can find ourselves "authorized" to bite the thumb and give a fig to those branches of our faith family tree that have showy leaves, but have nothing to satisfy the hungers of the hurting, the marginalized, the foreigner in our midst, the poor, the alienated. When we see trees of our faith communities become covered with kudzu-like leaves of violence, greed, and oppression, barren of the fruit of compassion, mercy, and grace, maybe we can don our best Elizabethan duds and play the parts of Gregory and Samson, and banter about some ways to creatively provoke the family, without breaking the law of love of course. At the end of the day, it really is a family feud, and at the end of the day, Jesus' words will come to pass – the systems of oppression will wither and all of us in the priestly class will have to get in line somewhere behind the prostitutes, who will be the first to enter the kingdom.
How about you? Where does this Primary Passage take you on your journey of faith? Fee free to comment.

The Slack Lines crew (@CHFFSlackLines) puts the fun in painful, financially crippling gambling losses. Read more about this panel of maladjusted social misfits here in our Week 1 introduction. No writers were hazed in making of this blog.
Current Slack Lines Standings:Luke O'Neil (@lukeoneil47): 18-18Nick Altschuller (@altschuller): 16-20Jerry Thornton (@jerrythornton1): 15-21Beau Sturm and J (@beausturm): 14-21-1Matt Roberts (@KidRob21): 12-23-1
I've only been "hazed" a few times in my life.
I went to boarding school, and, as is typical for teenage boys, we were disgusting people. My sophomore year, someone clogged a toilet, and rather than find a plunger, the suspect—I know who it was, but I AIN'T NO RAT—did what any idiot teenage boy would do, which was to cross his fingers, flush the toilet 47 times, and run away when that porcelain levee couldn't hold those brown flood waters any longer.
The entire dorm was punished, and as this wasn't the first time we underclassmen had acted like entitled jerks, the upperclassmen decided to toughen us up and haze us into respectability.
There was a 2 am wakeup call with flashlights in our eyes and pillowcases over our heads. We were rustled into the bathroom and made to do pushups (Eeew! I know what's been on this floor!). We were thrown into cold showers and told to straighten up and fly right. It was all... kind of awesome.
I know that may sound weird, but: A) It wasn't my poop; B) Someone turned the knob too far, and my cold shower was more of a tepid rinse; and C) It felt like being in a movie. (Quick, give me a terrible nickname I'll never shake!)
Plus, the experience felt more like a right of passage than a case of bullying. It served a purpose. We were idiots, and in a fairly benign way, we were taught a lesson. What's more, it's not like we didn't see it coming, and in the morning we were all friends again.
I think following those guidelines is the key to hazing, and Richie Incognito broke them. Adhere to rules of common sense, and things don't go off the rails. In prep school, EVERYONE KEEPS THEIR DICK IN THEIR SHORTS. In the NFL, hey, maybe lay off the n-word.
To use another example, in college, hazing's most fertile ground, some sports teams got in trouble for the old "throw the freshmen in the basement with a case of booze, and don't let them out until it's finished" ritual. (Hard to work a door handle with a 0.3 BAC.) As a result, the captains of my track team were encouraged to take a drastically different route for our annual kangaroo court.
What they did was stuff dozens of snack bags with prunes, and throughout the evening they'd throw them in our faces and demand that we eat them. At the end of the night, I had a mild buzz and a full stomach, but a general sense of being let down. (No forced cross-dressing? You mean I shaved my legs FOR NOTHING?)
My feelings changed at around 4 am that morning. Hell hath no fury like two pounds of insoluble fiber. But even in that state, I could see the whole experience as funny, and more importantly, I knew exactly where the plunger was. I had learned my lesson years ago, and I would not let history repeat itself.
Beau on Detroit @ Chicago (+2.5)Jay Cutler has been adamant that he's going to be ready for this Sunday's battle for the top of NFC North, despite suffering what's been called a "serious groin injury" in Week 7.
But Mr. Cutler doesn't do well with pain. Remember this image from the 2010 playoffs, when he went down with his infamous knee "injury" and mentally shut down on the sidelines?
Plan B for the Bears is heading back out there with Josh McCown. After drafting McCown in the third round, Arizona Cardinal's quarterback guru and future Hall of Fame coach Dennis Green—for those of you who can't dial into the sarcasm, he is neither of those things—said, "I think he's going to be a great one, when I buy into a quarterback, I really do."
Ten years have passed since then, and in that decade McCown has manned such football powers as the 3-13 2006 Detroit Lions and the 2010 Hartford Colonials of the UFL.
After glancing at the Chicago quarterback situation, do I really even need to talk about Detroit's fierce defensive line, their third-ranked offense, or Calvin Johnson going against Chicago's 26th ranked defense? Well, I guess I just did.Beau's Pick: Lions
Beau's Locks:Cowboys (+7)I'm still sticking with Romo for the entire month of November, even though they blew the spread last week with what seems like the only kind of win they can get: a last-minute, come-from-behind nail-biter.
LSU (+12) The Tigers are 0-2 versus good teams this season. Alabama is a good team—the number one team, to be specific. But this is a rivalry game that still has meaning in the SEC. LSU has NFL-quality talent on both sides of the ball and two touchdowns is too much in this kind of game, even if they're playing in Tuscaloosa. As a sidenote: If you saw the 60 minutes piece on Coach Saban, you'll be rooting for LSU on the money line.
Texas (-7) The Longhorns will destroy WVU in Morgantown, but bet on Mountaineer fans to be loud, hammered, rude and burning couches anyway! Woo Hoo!! Go Mountaineers!
Matt on Denver @ San Diego (+7) Certain things come to mind when one hears the name Peyton Manning: forehead the size of a drive-in movie theater, resembles a horse, races tractors through a mud bog in the offseason (probably).
But the VERY FIRST thing that pops into MY head when Peyton is brought up: Papa John Schattner, a true legend. The guy is the national version of New England's Ernie Boch, Jr., but instead of rocking the blues and flipping cars down the auto mile, he's slinging bold-flavored 'za from coast to coast, with an inimitable, devil-may-care attitude and the panache of a Prohibition-era bootlegger. Whether it's sinking half-court shots or feeding the masses, Johnny Schatts is always on point. I really can't blame old Peyton for casting his lot with such a righteous rocker from way back when.
Big-market segue: Well, this football matchup has all the zing of a Papa Johns garlic sauce packet. *winks* A mini resurgence has the dynasty-that-never-was Chargers back to mid-table mediocrity at 4-4. This is something of a coup, as almost all the pundits had San Diego left for dead in the preseason, predicting them to be the league's worst team.
But far from being propped up by the Jaguars and Buccaneers of the world, the Chargers are good in their right. The quarterback whisperer Mike McCoy and a receiver group of rookies, castoffs and geriatrics has inspired the return to relevance of Philip Rivers, who looked ready for the NFL rest home in the sky.
The return of Von Miller and his hipster glasses could potentially have a major impact on the outcome of this game, as both teams have suspect pass defenses. If he can get pressure on Rivers, it will slow down the track meet this game is likely to become. The sitting total is 58 points, 4.5 points higher than the next closest game.
The lads are gonna sling the rock all over the yard, and I like Manning to one up and run away from Rivers. Matt's Pick: BroncosMatt's Locks:Dolphins (-3) Nobody, and I do mean nobody, circles the wagons around racist bullies like the Dolphins. Last week was Tampa's Super Bowl, and the Schiano Men lost in horrifying fashion. They won't rebound.
Texans (+2.5)Never mind the cover, a win over Arizona is definitely *smiles into camera* in the cards. Thank you, and God bless.
Bengals (-1.5): The Bengals D will feast on the eagle Joe Flacco and the anemic Ravens offense. Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce are averaging 2.7 yards per carry in an offense that's supposed to be based around the run and play action passing. No bueno.
Luke on Carolina @ San Francisco (-6)It's getting to that point of the season where we start to learn who everyone is, and so far, all of our predictions have come true. Not our game predictions, of course. I meant our predictions about all of us being horrible people to take betting advice from.
Except for me, because if you had, for some inconceivable reason, actually been taking my advice this whole time, you would be exactly even. Minus about 10 percent multiplied by 18 of whatever your normal wager is. NOT BAD. That's cover charge money. That's a write off. In fact, the way I typically bet, I consider that type of loss to be a reasonable entry fee for the club in the first place.
If my typical picks weren't enough to turn you off, that preamble right there should do the trick.
Going by my normal Patriots-centric thinking, I'd like to see Carolina humiliated and revealed as a sub-par team, one unlike the actually halfway-decent one they've looked like lately. That way, they're dispirited when coming to face New England the following week.
Let's be honest, Carolina's last four wins: against Atlanta, Tampa Bay, St Louis and Minnesota, haven't exactly come against what you might call "actual" "NFL" "professional" "teams." San Francisco is on a five-game win streak themselves, though none of the teams they've beaten (Jacksonville, Tennessee, Arizona, Houston and St Louis) are exactly the cream of the crop.
So who takes it? I say S.F., but if that line moves any higher we're getting into questionable territory.Luke's Pick: 49ers
Luke's Locks:Buccaneers (+3)Tampa Bay, as dysfunctional as they are, are not going to let themselves go winless. We saw it last week with a near-stunner against Seattle. And Miami has had themselves what you might call a bit of a PR nightmare that can't have made for a great week of practice.Broncos @ Chargers (Over 58)All the points. Give me all the points, so I may feast upon them and gorge myself until I burst.
Cowboys (+7)The Saints are vulnerable, and Dallas can score. A lot.
Jerry on Dallas @ New Orleans (-7)I think I was born to be an agent. Not so much for the easy money, luxurious lifestyle, conspicuous wealth or even the chance to get famous off the God-given talents of others, as much as that appeals to me. No, I'd like to be an agent because there's nothing in the world that gives me as much satisfaction as manipulating the public.
As good as it must feel to sign a guy to a nine-figure deal knowing you're going to get 10 percent of it, in their quiet moments of reflection at the end of a long day of handing pens to guys, it has to be incredibly gratifying to know you managed to give the American people some inconsequential story to obsess about.
I mean, take Dez Bryant. He's semi-accomplished wideout on a middle-of-the-pack NFL team with a recent history of garden variety accomplishments. But he made himself THE story in the league for more than a week and a half. And how? By carrying his club to victory? Nope. Setting records? Not hardly. That was the guy on the other team. By throwing a hissy fit on the sidelines and getting up in the grill of half his teammates because said opponent was setting records instead of him? Ding ding ding.
And when, the good Lord willing, I'm advising clients, I'll have them do the exact same thing. Because in my little Jerry Maguire fantasy, my mission statement will be "Make people famous." And that's it. Fame creates wealth. There's no such thing as bad publicity. Up a guy's Q Rating, and you and he will be eating Kobe steaks off the butts of expensive call girls and washing it down with that $100,000 bottle of Champagne the Red Sox had in the best hotels in the world. Two weeks ago, Dez Bryant had a good game (3 for 72, 2 TDs) opposite Calvin Johnson's game for the ages. But because he went all H.A.M. on his teammates, the TV cameras couldn't have followed him more if he was Bruce Jenner carrying the royal baby into an Amanda Bynes court hearing. Ryan Seacrest doesn't get that much face time in a month. You can't buy that kind of publicity. But then again, you don't have to.
You don't have to win championships, have unique skills or really be much more than pretty good at what you do. You just have to act like a jerk.
I don't even think this will be much of a game to be honest with you. But you can be damned sure I'll be watching. And taking notes. My future career depends on it.Jerry's Pick: Saints
Jerry's Locks:Packers (-1.5) I like the Pack, despite the fact that for the foreseeable future we'll only be seeing Aaron Rodgers on Discount Double Check ads. Which for the record have now achieved that rare status of being commercials with so many variations you forget what the original joke was. Like the Geico cavemen. Or the one with the sad dogs and that Sarah McLachlan song, which stopped being funny a long time ago.
Bills (+3) The difference for the Bills last week against a very good K.C. team was an improbable 100-yard Pick-6. The difference for Pittsburgh last week was... everything. A team record 55 points and 610 yards surrendered, which actually looked worse than the numbers indicate. And though it pains me to say it, the worst player on the field was Troy Polamalu. He's always been one of my all-time favorites to watch. Now? I don't know if he's injured or old or if Tom Brady is in his head or what. And he also looks exceptionally heavy to me. It was all I could do to tell the difference between New England passing downs and promos for Mike & Molly. Buccaneers (+3) The worst bullying victim in the NFL this week will be America, for being subjected to this dirty diaper of a Monday nighter. It'll be worse than the scene in Step Brothers when that mean Chris Gardocki made Dale and Brennan lick the white dog poop. And while it would take a lot to get me to take Tampa over anybody, Joe Philbin losing 40 percent of his O-line to something that could've been settled with a couple of office detentions is hard to come back from.
Nick on Miami @ Tampa Bay (+3)By now, we're all caught up on the Dolphins hazing scandal. Jonathan Martin was treated poorly. Richie Incognito was suspended from the team. Some Miami coaches may have known about and supported the hazing (though they probably didn't know the extent to which it went). No one is coming away untarnished.
EXCEPT Ryan Tannehill. His name has barely come up in all this mess.
How are you ducking all this dirt, pretty boy? You should be leading this team. You should know if one of your lineman is snapping towels at nerds and stuffing them into lockers. (Note: replace "snapping towels" with "hurling racial slurs," "nerds" with "rookies," and "stuffing them into lockers" with "forcing them to pay 15 large for extravagant Vegas vacations.")
At a press conference this week, Tannehill said "If you asked Jonathan Martin who his best friend is on this team two weeks ago, he'd say Richie Incognito," and "All I know about Richie is that he's a great teammate to me." That tells me Tannehill is woefully out of touch.
Look, Ryan, I know you play for the Dolphins, but long gone are the days when you could act like you're above your teammates and just buy their love with luxurious Isotoner gloves. As Marino proved, you're never going to win that way.
If your offensive line would have been more cohesive, maybe you wouldn't have been sacked a league-leading 35 times. Maybe you wouldn't be down two starters on an already porous line going into a game that you need to win to keep your playoff hopes alive. Maybe you should be a vocal leader and not so...incognito.
*Thanks you for your bouquets and wild applause. Accepts Sportswriter of the Year and King o' Puns Award from Rick Reilly. The camera cuts to Matt Roberts trying to put on a brave face but feeling robbed.*Nick's Pick: Buccaneers
Nick's Locks:Whities @ Vikings (Under 50.5)Neither of these teams can consistently put up points. And the only reliable aspect to the Washington offense is Alfred Morris will gain 10 times more yards than any other back on the roster, but when it does come time to score Mike Shananan would rather have the equipment manager hurl himself into the end zone.
Titans (-12)The Jaguars had an extra week to prepare for this game, and somehow, with the suspension of Justin Blackmon, they've found a way to get worse. It's like you took an exotic vacation and came back with malaria.
Raiders (+7)The NFC East is a pet cemetery, as all of the teams in the division just refuse to die. I think the Zombie Giants make this game…well, the word probably isn't "interesting," but the score should be close, and I don't think the back-from-the-dead Peyton Hillis is going to do much against Oakland's sixth-ranked run defense.
Until next week. Follow @CHFFSlackLines for more inane commentary.

Ok - to go for Shopper stop and Big Bazar otherwise food court is not good and other shops are not that good. Instead - local market had good choice.
Its opposite of NH24 . NICE place but food court is no good .like no punjabi court or like this..........
This is the one of the biggest Malls in India and holds a very good ambiance. Almost everything thing is available in this Mall and never feels crowded even when crowded. Very nice Mall.

I am really dissatisfied with the charges of parking in this mall....they charge like 100 ₹ for parking....and want extra tip like 20/30 ₹ for valet parking....that's very costly comparatively to other malls in ncr area....Stores don't have that much collections like other malls....they have limited stores....food court is not that good....ac and heater doesn't work that well....Restrooms are horrible 😔.....so pathetic place to visit.😕I will not recommend this place to anybody.

Probably the only mall in the NCR with an entry on the right and exit on the left. It could be a mere coincidence that moving on the wrong side of the road is OK in the neighborhood. The parking is exorbitant 100/- for valet that has people who manhandle your car and grin when pointed out. The security check at the gate is full of sleaze, and dirt at the same time. The guards do not use a scanner and run their dirty hands all through your clothing smearing them as if it were some sort of a stamping protocol of this mall. The theaters are priced better and are value for money. Like any other popular mall in the NCR, it has almost all the major brands widely used by the Indian bourgeoisie.
Rohan Garg
It's a nice place to go with your family and friends got a Multiplex nice fooding options you got Burger King KFC Dunkin doughnuts everybody is there
Amritashan Shankar Lal
A great place to hangout at. Come in groups or even alone. It has nearly everything that you might need to kill time - eateries, clothing, movie. Good quality stuff though prices are on the higher side.
Anasuya Mukhopadhyay
This is the nearest mall to our place and we have been regularly coming here since last 6yrs. Be it for shopping, hanging out or movies, Shipra is the answer. It has got a food court with Chinese, Pizza, Kabab etc outlets. My favorite is the Subway of course! It also has a separate McD. The comfort and proximity of this mall makes it feel like home. :)

Time Off
Weekends are partially unscheduled to allow time for hanging out, catching up on sleep or homework, chatting with friends and family on the internet or by phone. Weekend town trips allow students to go into town for a burger, to see music or movies, go to the library, supermarket or a coffee shop. Our campus is about seven miles from the two closest towns of Grass Valley and Nevada City. Sierra Friends Center vans make the trip to town regularly and students can request rides to special events that are of interest to them. We also have a growing fleet of bicycles in our bike library, which students can check out for use around campus, for recreation or for transportation to town.
Students have one 10-day break each semester which usually coincides with Thanksgiving weekend in the fall and with Easter in the spring. During the breaks, the school is closed and students are required to leave campus. Fellow students (and sometimes local Quaker or alumni families) have often hosted Woolman students who are unable to return home during vacations. (Photo credit: Charlotte Prud'Homme, spring 2013)

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.4 /5 from 90 reviews
Extra friendly and helpful staff. Marvelous city. Great location.
This B&B was terrific - it was a former convent and has been transformed into a lovely B&B. Best of all was the woman who checked us in. She spoke fluent English and was extremely helpful pointing out the sites to see on a map, the best restaurants that locals frequent, and helping us with parking. Best of all was her enthusiasm for Syracusa - which is such a welcoming sentiment. Breakfast was terrific - lots of choices of fresh local food. The location was excellent - easy walking around Ortigia Island to see all the sites. I would return her without hesitation.
A great hotel with terrible sewage system problem. The bathroom smells like open sewage all the time, so you have to keep the balcony door opened at all time to ventilate before you get sick. The outside traffic can be quite noisy when the door is opened.
Very nice hotel location was good short walk to the Domo and restruants. We would stay there again. Our room had a super of the sea
Wonderful stay, complete with sea view room!

Federal Directorate of Education (FDE) removed two area education officers
ISLAMABAD: The Federal Directorate of Education (FDE) uprooted two zone training officers (AEOs) on the charge of delegating day by day wage representatives without taking after the due methodology.
A source in the FDE said Abbas Ali Makha and Bashir Arain, the region instruction officers (AEOs) Bhara Kahu and Nilor, were evacuated on Wednesday.
The source said the two officers were blamed for illicitly designating countless and non-showing staff on a day by day wage premise. The source said a request was likewise in progress against the officers for their asserted inclusion in the illicit arrangements.
Then again, the representatives who were selected by the two officers have been squeezing the FDE to pay them their compensations.
They have been guaranteeing that they were delegated on legitimacy. In the first stage, they were given an opportunity to function as volunteer educators and after that enlisted on a day by day wage premise.
"The FDE officers ought to visit schools and check the record of instructors paying little heed to the reality whether they were every day wagers or volunteers to focus the certainty. Each one of the individuals who are instructing in schools ought to be paid and the rest ought to be demonstrated the entryway," said a senior officer of the FDE on the state of namelessness.
He said Mustafa Qureshi had been made the new AEO Nilor and Fazle Mola has been given the charge of Bhara Kahu.

What is Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema?
On August 4th 2017 The Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema, a festival designed to support independent Filmmakers, will be launching its inaugural film festival at the historic Kew Gardens Cinemas in Queens NYC.
What is Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema?
The Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema is a non-profit organization established to support the development, and help expand the audiences, of independent cinema from around the globe. The Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema was founded by three local independent filmmakers with a passion to get movies made, and to have those artistic voices heard. Understanding the struggle in today's film environment in showcasing independent cinema, their aim is to establish a presence and awareness of cinematic creativity throughout Kew Gardens Queens and the neighboring communities.
For its inaugural year The Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema aims to become influential in bringing the community together over a 10 day period consisting of film screenings and other activities related to the movie business. With encouraging Q&A's and industry panels we expect to broaden the appeal of Independent film and promote audience participation.
As a competitive festival, our program will consist of over 100 remarkable short and feature length films from all genres including often overlooked categories such as Documentary, Horror, Comedy, Sci-fi, Fantasy, Animation and Experimental. Each film will then be judged, in their respected categories, by our specially selected panel of industry professionals. Winners in each category will receive a statuette at our Grand Awards Gala on the final night of the festival.
Our Festival will be taking place exclusively in Kew Gardens Queens in NYC, USA. Our venue, THE KEW GARDENS CINEMAS is Queens' only art house theater dedicated solely to playing independent and foreign films. Named one of the top 7 theaters in Queens, the theater was built in the 1930's and it is one of the oldest movie theaters still operating in NYC.
A little known area of NYC, Kew Gardens and its surrounding neighborhoods - Forest Hills, Rego Park, Woodhaven and Glendale - are a major stomping ground for most television shows being shot today in New York. Not only is Kew Gardens known as the neighborhood that raised comedians Rodney Dangerfield and Ray Romano, but just a few minutes away is the recently built Broadway Stages. This area of Queens has now been featured in several blockbuster Hollywood films like The Babysitter, Goodfellas and Spiderman as well as major Network TV shows including- Daredevil, The Good Wife, Blue Bloods, The Get Down, Luke Cage and SNL.
We expect to draw not only artists and filmmakers from around NYC but from all over the world. We are giving the residents of Kew Gardens and its neighboring communities Forest Hills, Rego Park and Woodhaven the opportunity to experience Hollywood in their own backyard.
Why should I participate in the Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema?
We are celebrating the art of film making and the contribution of cinematic artists by hosting an international film festival supporting the development of up and coming filmmakers.
Why should I participate in the Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema?
Our mission is to expand audience reach and bring awareness to films that might otherwise never have the opportunity to be showcased. We encourage filmmakers from around the globe to submit their work for a chance to have it screened in an actual movie theater, The Kew Gardens Cinemas. Built in the 1930's, it is Queens New Yorks oldest and only operating Art House Movie Theater.
What makes our Festival stand out from the other opportunities available to filmmakers is that we are focusing on the TRULY independent film, not the film that is funded by the indie film division of a major studio. Nor are we focusing on what celebrity or 'name' actor may be in your film. We want to see the work of filmmakers and their teams who have poured their blood, sweat and tears into making their vision come to life. We are exhibiting the best in all genres, including themes often overlooked by other major film festivals, like Horror, Sci-Fi, LGBT, Comedy, Animation and Experimental. We promise to have distributors and producers in attendance alongside our selected panel of industry professionals who will make up our Jury.
Upon acceptance each filmmaker will receive Filmmaker Badges for their cast and crew that will allow access to all the screenings and panels being held throughout the festival, along with exclusive access to our Filmmaker Cafe & Lounge. Filmmaker badge holders will also be entitled to a 5% discount on all merchandise being sold at the festival. All selected filmmakers and respective cast & crew will be given the opportunity to purchase Gala Award tickets at a 30% discount.
Opening night will consist of a meet the filmmakers mixer, where filmmakers will have the opportunity to network and promote their film with other festival attendees. Certain selected films to be featured in our Festival Spotlight programming will have a red carpet premiere as well as an after party hosted by the festival. Our Opening and Closing night films will consist of specially invited premieres following a red carpet event
Winners for every category will be awarded with a personally engraved unique statuette at our Grand Gala Award Ceremony being held at the world-famous Terrace on the Park rooftop penthouse.
There will be over 20 prizes awarded to participating filmmakers that will include:
Our Top Honor Award - The Indie Film Visionary Award
Audience awards for both short and feature length films
Best Director of a Feature
Best Director of a Short
Best Cinematography
Best Screenplay
Best Actor/Actress in a feature
Best Actor/Actress in a short

about the team
The first and only film festival of its kind held in Kew Gardens, NYC, The Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema was founded by three local independent filmmakers with a passion to get movies made. Wanting to expand the reach of artists' work and recognizing the challenge of the visibility of independent film, their aim is to establish a presence in and spread awareness of cinematic creativity throughout Kew Gardens, Queens and the neighboring communities.
Jayson Simba
Executive Director
As the founder of the Kew Gardens Festival of Cinema and a native of Glendale Queens, Jayson studied acting at The Acting Studio NYC and began making his own movies in 2000. With over 40 credits on IMDB.com and having written, directed and produced 11 films, his passion makes him the perfect candidate to launch a major film festival.
John Fallon
Technical Director
After over seventeen years of editing films, commercials and television shows, John founded the Indie Film NYC Podcast to help other filmmakers navigate a career as artists in an increasingly digital world. John sees the Kew Garden Festival of Cinema as a logical extension of the work he's doing with IFNYC because this festival will give filmmakers a place to showcase their films, network with their peers, and learn from other filmmakers.
Caroline Lim
Operations Manager
Another Queens native, Caroline Lim was raised in Oakland Gardens, NY and studied biochemistry and mathematics at Binghamton University. Caroline is no stranger to number-crunching, having spent 13 years as an actuary, where she analyzed risk for financial investments and insurance policies. Besides running a baking company that serves Queens locals, she is an event organizer who promotes positive community and economic growth throughout New York City neighborhoods.
