About Me
- Sheryl. ♥Redonkadoodles♥
- I'm a wife, a mother, and a full time illustrator. I have a son who is 8, and a daughter 5. Drawing & Digital painting is my life, but wish drawing digis was my full time job b/c I get so much satisfaction from it! For now it is a hobby that is mainly for my babies, and my escape from the strict guideline of the lisenced properties I work on in everyday life! I LOVE my day job too. I create small MMO games for major featured films, anything ranging from Dreamworks Madagascar, Ice Age, Tin Tin, or Puss In Boots to projects as small as My Little Pony, Barbie, and Hello Kitty to name a small few. I enjoy painting traditionally and digitally, and there are days where I wish I had four arms so I can do everything! Family comes first for me - life is just too short, so I try to find a happy balance between crafts and my full time career.

Have a Fairy Merry Christmas!
I used Promarkers of course.
Wings: Blue Pearl, Cool Aqua (these blend beautifully)
Dress: China Blue, Blue Bell, Blue Pearl, Cool Aqua (for petal skirt)
Hair: aubergine, slate, and lilac / petrol blue, marine, Turquoise, duck egg
Skin: coral, sunkissed pink, blush, baby pink (cheeks)/ antique pink, baby pink (lips)
Glitter: I used a Glitter Liner made by Viva #908 Holo Iridescent. This colour is beautiful on almost any colour! Total must have (in my opinion) and dries quick unlike glitter glue.
Purple and white cardstock given to me (thanks Aunt Kim!)
Blue "Magical Christmas" Digital Scrapbook Paper (made by me - not in the shop yet, sorry my dears)!
Swirls were cut and given to me from my Aunt Kim - they were perfect for this project ( I seriously need this Die cut for future -I love it so much)!!!
Snowflake embellishment - cut from my Martha Stewart Punch. Covered it with my Glitter Liner and added purple jewel.
So here is a sneak peek of What Kim did with my Fairy Digital Stamp. She's soooo cute, so please hop over to see what she has done! Justwordz.ca!
Sassy has also done a beautiful job colouring my fairy and I just love it to bits! Check out her version here. ...AND if you are lucky enough you might even get to see what Tracey from Candi Craft Cards, did with hers too later today! I haven't seen it, but I know it will be beautiful as all of her cards are! It truly is amazing how one image can look so different! I can't say enough how much I love seeing my images come to life! So if you've got a Redonkulous Designs card or craft to share-please post on my Facebook Fan Page!

Fairy Digital Stamp
Shy Fairy. I'm still a young girl at heart and I absolutely LOVE fairies! Several weeks ago I turned my daughter's nursery into a fairies and butterfly theme - hey, I have to live my childhood through her somehow, heehehe! Then when visiting with Kim from justwordz.ca we chit chatted about fairies, which of course lit a fire of a stamp I've been meaning to do for a long time! I like this fairy digi so much I may have to do another...and then another! =) This will not be the last fairy you see from me! Don't forget to add lots of glittery fairy dust to your handmade cards! I'm thinking about colouring this cutie up, scanning it in, and printing her onto a T-Shirt transfer for my little girl! I wonder if I can find some fabric glitter somewhere...if they make such a thing?
This past weekend we went to visit Nana and Papa Brown, where they were so kind to host a fabulous baby shower for our little Miss Serina. It was so nice to see everyone, indulge on so many goodies (especially the ones made by Tina and Jamie), and drink an ocean of Tim Horton's coffee (not exaggerating here. Papa accidentally purchased a party sized container of coffee - LOL!). We are so grateful for the gifts Serina received and having such a thoughtful family. If you are reading this NB family, thanking you again for thinking of us! ♥

Cute Christmas Digital Stamp - Elf in A Box
As you all know we recently had our baby girl Serina, and she has been a joyful addition to our family. It will be interesting to see how the family dynamics will work in the coming month with our other new little friend.... Who is this little friend I speak of? No, not a puppy!!! Have you ever heard of an "Elf on the shelf"? That's right, I'm getting excited about a little elf! But it's not just any little elf! It is a cute little guy who visits after reading a story book. We have to name him when he arrives, but Kolby is not to touch him or he will lose his magic! He is only allowed to talk to him; this under strict orders from the Big Man himself (Santa), and the elf is only allowed to listen. Every day, our elf friend will visit our home, showing up in a random place, to make sure Kolby is being a good boy. Then he disappears to report to Santa! What a cute, fun, and clever idea huh? I'm soooo excited, I feel like a child myself! Christmas is super exciting again! My husband, wants us to wait until Dec 1st to bring out our elf friend and I am not sure I can wait! Not only that, if I know my son, he will take this very seriously and talk to the elf, and be on his best behaviour till the 25th of December! He usually is a very good boy anyway, but for those odd days, when he becomes Mr. Cranky Pants, I will now be able to point to my little elf buddy and have an even more peaceful December! Woohoo!
Now the big question. Since this is going to be tradition, we want to influence Kolby to come up with a cute, elf-like name. He is only 3, so he will need help with this, otherwise we'll be calling him "Excavator Banana Face"...Yes, he has a big vocabulary when it comes to trucks etc., but lacks the creativity for naming things that make sense. HA HA! Soooo....
Any ideas for an elf name for our Elf on The Shelf tradition?

A Father and Son - Digital Stamp & Dark Skin Tones using Promarkers
Daddy's Boy" is my newest addition to the shop. The inspiration comes from my husband, and how awesome he is with my son. This is how I see the two of them, especially as of late when Daddy comes home from work. YUP, that's right! I am now on my own taking care of the 2 rascals while Hubby is bringing home the bacon! It's been wonderful though despite my extreme exhaustion. Jim was, and still is, a big help during this very busy time with our newest addition. I am sure I am not the only one who knows a really awesome Dad who deserves this digi stamp...and yes, I will do a "Daddy's Girl" version too in the future!!! Thanks everyone for your sweet comments on my last post of our baby girl! It really warmed our hearts and enjoyed reading them all! :)
Hope everyone has a great hump day! =)
Check out my other newest digital stamp "Workout Girl". For a long time now, I've been meaning to do a digi stamp of a girl for darker skin tones. So here she is and I just LOVE her!!! I am really happy with how she turned out and how beautiful I finally got her skin tone. Now, I'm not an expert marker colourer or anything, as this is still very new to me. I confess, it took me about 5 tries to get these warm brown colours to perfection - perhaps it is a lack of colours in my marker collection. But, like a little scientist, I experimented and finally found the perfect colours I liked, and figured out a way to colour her without making it too blotchy looking. Kim will be doing a version too, so I am curious to see how hers turned out, and what colours she used - if she posted it this week. Pop on over and check out her blog! The Promarker colours I used for her dark skin tone was Cocoa, Raw Sienna, Coral, Amethyst, and Antique Pink for her cheeks. Sounds scary doesn't it? I used Amethyst for the really dark areas under her chin, her back, inner ear etc. I found all of these colours had to be applied a certain way and worked and then re-worked to get a nice even tone. Oh yes, I also used Maroon for her eyeshadow. This was such a fun challenge for me and I really want to do another. The image is actually 2 different versions I coloured for practise (one cropped, and one full version). I want to complete this cutie with my fitness papers using the black design patterns, that is my reason for her clothing colours. Next time I'd really like to do a purple and green combo, which I think would look so pretty with her skin tone.
Hope everyone has a great hump day! =)

Finally! 3D printed sneakers you can actually buy and wear! But they're made in limited quantities by Under Armor and will cost three Benjamins a pair.
After a lot of talking the talk, but not actually walking the walk, the first commercially available 3D printed training shoe has finally hit the market… But not from who you may have expected.
Under Armour has made a surprise move over bigger rivals Nike, Adidas and New Balance to actually release a shoe that's available to consumers (and not billion-dollar athletes). But there's a catch.
The Architect shoe was created to celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Under Armour, and they're only making 96 pairs because each shoe has to be produced by a small but state of the art Innovation Lab in Baltimore.
Therefore, due to the amount of work involved in creating these performance shoes, each pair will set you back $300.
How Does the Under Armour Performance Shoe Work?
The Architect shoe has an impressive 3D printed lattice midsole combined with a "ClutchFit auxetic" upper. By printing the midsole, the shoe provides light and springy cushioning, along with the upper which provides stability and moves with the athlete.
The midsole was 3D printed from a combination of polymers and elastomers, and the reason 3D printing was used for this shoe (instead of traditional manufacturing processes) comes down to the cost.
With 3D printing, prototypes could be rapidly produced — meaning the product could be tested a lot more frequently giving the team a better understanding of what works best.
It seems that these 96 pairs aren't the only 3D printed shoes we can expect from Under Armour. The company plan to unveil additional shoes as they learn more about 3D printing processes.
Look out for some more interesting, but probably rather pricey, new designs over the next few months while the company receives personalized feedback to perfect their 3D printed shoe designs.
Plus, check out Gizmodo's test of the Under Armour sneaker to see how the Architect stacks up against a traditional trainer in the video below.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 28/9/2012 (1789 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
MADRID, Spain -- The Bank of Spain said Friday an independent audit of the country's troubled banks shows they would need an extra 59.3 billion euros (US$76.3 billion) to cover for further economic shocks.
The stress tests' findings, released by consultants Oliver Wyman, will help the country decide how much money it will tap from a 100-billion-euro European loan facility offered in June to prop up its financial sector.
Spain's banks have been struggling under the weight of toxic assets stemming from the collapse of the country's property market in 2008. Saddled with these bad loans and failed building projects, the country's banks have been reluctant to loan more money to businesses and households, stunting the economy.
The European loan facility is to be used to cover these bad loans and shortfalls, thereby freeing the banks to do business again.
The Bank of Spain's figure does not include the impact of ongoing banking mergers or taxation. Including those two elements, the shortfall drops to 53.7 billion euros.
Bank of Spain deputy governor Fernando Restoy said some 400 auditors went through the books of 14 lenders -- about 90 per cent of the Spanish banking system -- analyzing their capital cushions under adverse scenarios.
"We wanted (the tests) to be the toughest ever," Restoy told reporters at a news conference.
Jean-Claude Juncker, head of the eurozone group of countries, said he was "comforted" by the results, adding the 100 billion euros earmarked to help Spanish lenders "should be more than adequate" for their capital needs.
The agreed aid "should ensure that the recapitalization process of banks can proceed efficiently and in accordance with previously agreed timelines," Juncker said in a statement.
While European stock and bond markets were closed, the euro edged up to $1.2875 from $1.2860 before the release of the stress-test results.
The European Commission said the tests were "a major step in implementing the financial-assistance program and toward strengthening the viability of and confidence in the Spanish banking sector."
It said in a statement that recapitalization of a first group of banks is scheduled to occur by November following approval by Spanish and European authorities.
Restoy said the lenders needing to shore up their capital will have to tell the government whether they need public aid or intend to raise their own funds.

The Price of Glory(1989)
A novel by Lynn Bartlett
Reporter Cassandra Blake would do anything for a story, even place her own life in peril. Then she met her new boss, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seth Winter. Suddenly she didn't know which to fear more-terrorist threats or the powerful emotions Seth aroused in her. It had been ten years since Seth had paid the price of his dreams of glory-a tragic explosion that had shattered his life. Now he was back in Paris-and dangerously close to falling for a woman headed down the same treacherous road to fame. But he knew that if they denied their love they'd pay the highest price of all.

LEAPIN Digital Keys will be joining one other international team from Jerusalem, and 8 US based companies in the 10 week program starting on September 4th. 27 startups have gone through the 10x program and have collectively raised over $9.4 million in follow on funding, including one exit.
"This time last year, we had just graduated from the ANZ Innovyz START accelerator program in Adelaide," says Steve Dunn, CEO and Co-Founder. "Although ANZ Innovyz Start had a strong mentor network, we want to be in a place where we have a lot of opportunities to partner with and or licence with some larger companies which we might not have had access to back in Australia".
LEAPIN Digital Keys is a smartphone-enabled access control system and a replacement for keycard systems, and the traditional lock and key. Using the LEAPIN Digital Keys app, time-sensitive Digital Keys can be created in seconds and sent to anyone via sms or email. 'Our product is perfect for sharing economy companies like Airbnb or even car sharing companies' said Mr Dunn. "The 'sharing economy', worth over 32 billion in the USA, just doesn't exist in Australia, so it makes sense for our company to be on the ground in the USA where everybody understands what we are all about".
The 10x program takes 10 startups for 10 weeks and seeds them with $20,000 in seed funding, office space, and a strong mentor network of over 100. The class will "graduate" at the end of 10 weeks with an investor day held in Columbus.
10x has been specifically designed for entrepreneurs of disruptive technologies like Digital Keys and is based on the latest practices of lean startups and groundbreaking research from Ohio State University.
With access to over 100 mentors including Angel Investors, industry decision makers, Venture Capitalists, and thought leaders, LEAPIN hopes to use the program to carry out further development and trials, and to raise capital.
About 10xelerator Program
Managed by Founders Factory, 10x is a collaborative effort among Ohio's New Entrepreneurs (ONE) Fund, TechColumbus, The Ohio State University, Columbus 2020 and other like-minded community organizations committed to leveraging their experience, expertise and influence to grow profitable businesses. The 10x program is located opposite the Ohio State University. Ohio State is the third largest University Campus in the United States.

Author: the UPbeat soul
Goodbye, College.
This is the place that made me lose sleep, but it is also the place that became home.
I feel like I have said "these past four years went by so quickly" close to a million times within the past few weeks, but honestly there are no other words to describe how insanely fast my college chapter has flown by. The people I met, the ones who stayed, the ones I did not get to keep, and even the ones that came back in the end to finish what they started.
My college has had such a huge impact on my life. This is the place that made me lose sleep, but it is also the place that became home. Some are good memories, and some are ones I probably wish never happened. Regardless of what has happened to me here, I will always love this place.
My college is where I met amazing people from all walks of life; all the stories I heard and the things they taught me. This is where roommates became best friends, and friends became family. This is the place where I have fallen in love at one point — either with my future goals or simply with my daily life here. This is the place where I slowly figured out what I want to do in life and to be accepting of change. After all, we are forever discovering ourselves. This is the place that showed me what I am capable of. This is the place that showed all of us a world outside of our hometowns — no matter how big or small they might be. This is the place that has become my home.
While I will miss the late night studying (more like cramming) and running to an early morning class, the hardest part might not be leaving this place or the academics, but leaving the people. My friends were there when I missed my family. My friends were there when I was going through a helluva stressful week. My friends were also there on the good days, celebrating small accomplishments, like doing well on a presentation, or the big accomplishments.
There are three primary organizations and the people I met through that who have made a positive mark on my life here on campus. I was really nervous about the thought of joining new organizations on campus and making my mark. All three of these organizations and the people have pushed me to achieve feats that I, four years ago, never thought I could possibly do. I'm eternally grateful to have met these people who convey new ideas and an open-mind. I'm grateful to have met these people who are patient and kind. I'm lucky to have grown with such genuine people. It's hard to find those who truly mean what they say, but I was lucky to find them.
We're all so different in personalities, majors, goals, and aspirations, but at the same time we are all so similar. We all have rough days. We all sing at the top of our lungs to throwback songs — even if my friends and I don't harmonize one bit. We all miss our families — love you dad and ma. And, we all have disagreements — but there are no judgments abound. We're all different but in the best way possible.
These last few months have been extremely busy. It feels like life is running on an hourglass. The anxiety has been real — trying to get in all the good memories, creating as many as you can before it is all over, and trying to do the things you have been wanting to do since freshmen year. I wish this did not have to end. I wish we all did not have to go our own separate ways. I wish I could just take all of my favorite people and places to my next chapter, but life moves on.
Once I get into my car Sunday afternoon and start to drive away, the final chapter of the life I made for four years will be closing. I will leave this place but I know I will always have the memories and photos to look back on, smiling to myself as I think of these days. But for now, before we leave, I wish I could slow down time, just to savor and cherish every last second before the last grain of sand falls and this chapter closes completely.

New Year, Better Me
New year means reflections like never before.
The New Year means reflections like never before.
While I understand making resolutions doesn't have to only happen on New Year's, there is that extra motivational push to do so when others around you are reflecting during the same time. By having so much free time this winter break to reflect, the new year is my chance to sit down and prepare a list of important actionable lifestyle changes I want to make.
In the past, I have always made a list of things I want to change in my life every new year. When I think about them now, I realize how materialistic those goals have been. I particularly remember 2012's one where I wanted to do anything I can to get into a prestigious Ivy League and 2014's one where I wanted that 4.0 next semester. Yes – these resolutions motivated me to do well, but I realize now how narrow-minded these resolutions were. Ivy Leagues. 4.0s. I was missing the point of life. I was not understanding the importance of happiness, positivity, and peace. It was always a rush to succeed and never about enjoying the process.
Not sure what has been so different about me when thinking about this year's resolutions (maybe I'm just feeling 22 haha), but when I began jotting my goals, I realized it could very easily be summarized as leading a happy life. There was no specific achievement I wanted. Rather, it was to enjoy every day of my life. Maybe this is the after-effect of close family friends' untimely deaths. Or maybe this is the senior college student nostalgia kicking in already. Or maybe this is just me being more aware of society around me. Regardless, I am beginning to see the world and my role here in a different light.
My resolutions may seem vague to many reading this, but to me, this is exactly how I want them to be. We have all been taught to make SMART goals with the S standing for specific. As you'll see, my resolutions are not specific whatsoever. Rather, they're just how I want to lead life this year and for years to follow. I believe these resolutions are the door to happiness and eventually, my perseverance to make my mark in society.
Read More.
The last physical book I read was probably over four years ago. I still read the news, but that's not really the same. I always blamed lack of time for this, but this year I really want to start reading more. With the endless amount of perspectives and lives we can read about, books can give us an opportunity to have experiences that we haven't had the opportunity to and still allow us to learn the life skills they entail. Through reading more, I hope to discover more about myself.
Live More [Fully].
Yup, you read that right. Live more. I want to live my life more fully. I will pursue to live every day on a fresh new start. I do not want to be and will not be held back by what happened yesterday, the day before, the week before, the year before, and so on. This also means to be true to who I really am. Unintentionally, we all try to be someone we are not to impress someone or want everyone to like us. While I made this change last year, I really want to continue this as it has made me a more confident and independent person. I'd rather be an original version of myself than an exact duplicate of someone else. And, the third change I want to bring about is to stop complaining. I never understood how I much I complain until a friend recently pointed out. Call it venting, b****ing, or whatever, but I tend to do this during stressful times, and I need to turn it down a notch. While it is important to share your feelings with close friends, over-complaining or criticizing brings them down too even if they don't express it. So 2017, get ready for the more positive me!
Breathe More [Fresh Air].
This past year, I have been indoors way too much. Classes, meetings, meals, and assignments are all inside. I want to explore more Atlanta spots and take my reading, studying, and chilling there. I spend way too much time in my apartment and have always wanted to go outside to work on things, but I was never proactive. With my Fridays off this semester, I will have a great opportunity to explore the city I have spent practically my entire life in. Not only that, fresh air busts stress and increases happiness. Research shows that spending time in fresh air increases energy in 90 percent of people. This seems like a good resolution to me. 🙂
Give More [to Society].
In five months, I will have received my undergraduate degree from one of the most prestigious institutions in the nation. Why was it that I worked so hard to get this degree? It is honestly more the process and the four years of learning that has shaped me to be who I am now. Taking those fun courses that were outside the biomedical engineering curriculum was very honestly my secret to new ideas and passion. No matter how tough we think our lives are, there is always someone who has to face challenges that are even tougher than ours. Taking classes like sociology and leveraging social networks gave me a fresh take on how I can make a sustainable difference as opposed to volunteering at one holiday event. As a Girl Scout for 13 years and active member of various service organizations, I have kept my promise of giving back to society. However, this year I want to give more. I want to start an initiative myself going off my Gold Award project that I was and am still passionate about in 2013 — autism awareness. With the connections I have made these past four years, with the new advances I have learned about in my courses, and with the passion to lead and serve my community, I am really excited in launching this idea sometime the first half of this year.
Love More.
If you can learn to love yourself and all the flaws, you can love other people so much better. And that makes you so happy. ~ Kristin Chenoweth
Enough said. Bringing more happiness and positivity to not only myself but to those around me is exactly what I will be doing starting now.
Smile More.
One smile can make all the difference in the world. One smile has the power to release stress, calm you down, make you attractive, make someone else happy, and can cause happiness. I want to continue smiling through ups and downs and see more positivity in any situation. After all, I do think smiling more is the way to mastering the art of positive thinking.

The 7 Best-Dressed Men on Television in 2014
This year, Apple gave their employees backpacks for the holidays. Yes, backpacks. Not even a cool Patagonia one or something, just a lousy, black Apple backpack. Pretty sure that's the same thing you get when you tour the Apple campus, except then it's at least got an iTunes gift card in it. Apparently these are now going for $99.99 on eBay, which seems a bit steep. Great work, guys.
There's been a lot of, well, buzz, about Buzzfeed giving every single one of their employees an Apple Watch this year (you hear that Apple? Buzzfeed is beating you at your own game), to the tune of at least $245,000. Only there's one catch; they're not out until at least after the new year, if not much longer. Christmas in March anyone?

B-5 Bars
The B-5 Bar was developed about 1980, or so.
Larry was building parts for the Log Processor/Harvester Machine, and the customers were in need of something that lasted longer. Because of Larry's experience in making Debarker Spikes or Tips, a manufacturer came and asked what he had for this problem.
At first, we didn't have very good luck, as they were too hard and fractured real easy, so we modified the alloy. Success! Larry was building Spikes for the Post & Pole Peelers and he showed the "B-5" Bar to a customer in Wyoming. The customer wanted to try the Bar in place of the Spikes. It lasted about 10 times the life of the original product.
Because of this extended life of the bars, some of the operators have shown an increase in volume and less damage to the wood fiber post.

Locke tops Phillies 6-2; Pirates finish 1st sweep
PITTSBURGH (AP) Jeff Locke spent a lot of time with A.J. Burnett last year, and then faced his mentor in a pitching matchup in Pittsburgh.
Locke got the best of Burnett on Sunday in Pittsburgh's 6-2 victory that finished off a three-game sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies.
"It didn't even feel like we were playing a Major League Baseball game," Locke said. "We spoke really briefly before we got in the bullpen, just told each other to have fun today, go get `em. Pound down."
Locke gave up just three hits and a walk in eight innings, and the Pirates completed their first sweep of the season. Pittsburgh had failed to finish a sweep in eight previous tries this season.
Philadelphia was swept for the eighth time.
"I didn't know we didn't have a sweep all season," Locke said. "It feels good, especially a team like those guys over there. Especially when (Marlon) Byrd and A.J. come back again."
The Pirates (47-41) moved a season-high six games over .500, while the Phillies (37-51) fell a season-high 14 games below .500.
Locke (2-1) gave up two runs – one earned – and struck out four. He has made six straight quality starts since being recalled from Triple-A Indianapolis on June 8.
The left-hander worked mostly off of his fastball and changeup in an outing his manager Clint Hurdle called "fantastic."
Byrd gave the Phillies a 1-0 lead in the first inning with a single to left. Jimmy Rollins scored an unearned run from second after he reached base on a throwing error by third baseman Pedro Alvarez.
Alvarez leads the major leagues with 18 errors this season.
Pittsburgh responded in its half of the inning with two runs to erase Philadelphia's early lead.
Andrew McCutchen beat out a ground ball to shortstop with two outs after Burnett struck out the Pirates' first two hitters. Neil Walker followed with a single.
Against his former batterymate, Pirates catcher Russell Martin hit a two-run double to right-center for a 2-1 advantage that wouldn't have been possible without McCutchen's hustle.
"That's my game," McCutchen said. "I go up, hit a ball on the ground, and I have an opportunity to do something with it. That's what I use my legs for and that's what I'm going to always be like."
The Pirates added another run in the third when Josh Harrison led off with a triple that split the gap in right-center. Harrison tagged from third on a shallow fly ball from Walker to center fielder Ben Revere and scored as Revere's throw came in offline.
Burnett (5-8) gave up three runs and five hits, walked two and struck out seven in seven innings in his return to Pittsburgh. The Pirates played a "Thank You A.J." video on the scoreboard when Burnett took the mound in the first inning
"The video caught me by surprise," Burnett said. "I don't know what to say about it. It was very moving. It was very unexpected."
Byrd hit his 18th home run in the seventh inning to draw Philadelphia within 3-2.
Locke threw Byrd a changeup low and inside, which Byrd sent over the fence in left field.
"He got me," Locke said. "I got ahead of him, threw a changeup, and boom, he hit it. I knew it was a home run."
For Hurdle, it was only a matter of time until Byrd would damage the Pirates.
"Byrd's a good hitter," Hurdle said. "We played with the tiger's tail earlier in the series because he had a lot of at-bats with runners in scoring position that we were able to navigate through and around."
Byrd finished 2 for 4 with two RBI.
"He's been very steady for us," Phillies manager Ryne Sandberg said. "An everyday grinder who forces the chips in. He's been one of our consistent bats."
Harrison scored again in the eighth on a RBI triple by McCutchen, who was awarded third base because of fan interference following a crew chief review initiated by home plate umpire Dale Scott.
Philadelphia reliever Justin De Fratus elevated an 81 mph slider over the plate that McCutchen hammered to the opposite field.
"I thought it had a chance," McCutchen said. "But like I've said plenty of times, you just never know what the ballpark is. Some days it'll go, some days it won't."
McCutchen then scored on a single by Starling Marte, and Jordy Mercer drove in another run with a sacrifice fly.
NOTES: Pittsburgh RHP Charlie Morton (5-9, 3.30 ERA) will oppose St. Louis RHP Adam Wainwright (1-4, 1.89 ERA) on Monday when the teams begin a three-game series at Busch Stadium. … Philadelphia LHP Cole Hamels (2-5, 2.98 ERA) will face Milwaukee RHP Marco Estrada (7-5, 4.94 ERA) as the Phillies continue their road trip on Monday.

discovered them before that time or not; but it was the grip man's duty to have his eyes not merely on what was before his car, but what was within his sight. Suppose there had been a pair of runaway horses attached to a wagon coming down Gilbert avenue; no one could undertake to say that the gripman was not at fault if he failed to discover that runaway team until it got within twenty feet of the car. Everybody could recognize that it was the duty of the gripman to govern his actions accordingly. If there was not anything unusual in the appearance of the team coming down the hill, then he was not bound to stop the car until he got within a danger distance. If there was; it was necessary for him to take all precautions which the situation indicated.' "
From what we have already said, we must overrule these assignments. The modification was proper, under the facts of this case; and the request, as modified, is a clear and sound exposition of the law as applicable to this case. This disposes of all the points urged for a new trial. The result is that the judgment must be affirmed.
UNITED STATES v. BARBER. (Circuit Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. "fay 26, 1800.)
No. 443·
·JuDmfENTS AGAINST THE UKITIW OF MARCil 3. 1887. Section 10 of the act of congress of March 3, 1887, relating to the bringing of suits against the United States, and conferring jurisdiction thereof upon the circuit and district courts. does not repeal or modify the provisions of Rev. St. §§ 1090, 1091, relative to interest on judgments of the court of claims, nor authorize the recovery of interest on such judgments from the time of their rendition until an appropriation is made for their payment.
In Error to the District Court of the United States for the Northern Division of the Northern District of Alabama. Geo. A. King and Jere Murphy, Jr., for defendant in error. Emmett O'Neal and F. B. Earhart, for the United States. Before PAHDEE and McCORMICK, Circuit Judges, and SPEEH, District Judge. SPEER, District Judge. Robert Barber instituted a suit against the United States in the district court for the Northern district of Alabama, under the provisions of the act of congress of March 3, 1887, entitled "An act to provide for the bringing of suits against the government of the United States." The amount of his demand was $18.45. It appears from the petition filed that on the 24th day of May, 1887, he obtained in the court of claims a judgment against the United States for the sum of $540. On the 11th of June, 1887, he presented to the secretary of the treasury of the United States a properly certified transcript of the judgment, and requested payment. There being no appropriation applicable for that purpose, payment was delayed until the 30th of March, 1888, when an act of congress provided for "certain of the most urgent deficiencies in the appropriations forthe service of the government for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1886." Among other appropri-
ations, the following was made: "For payment of the judgment of the court of claims, as follows: * * * Robert Barber, $540," Thereafter the principal sum due on the judgment was paid by a treasury draft, which the plaintiff states he accepted in full payment of the principal only. The amount of $18.45 having accrued as interest from the date of the judgment to the date of the appropriation, the plaintiff now sues to recover that sum. He relies upon a clause of section 10 of the act of congress of March 3, 1887, which reads as follows: "From the date of such final judgment or decree interest shall be computed thereon at the rate of four per centum per annum until the time when an appropriation shall be made for the payment of the judgment or decree." The plaintiff insists that this language applies as well to the judgments rendered by the court of claims as to the judgments obtained in the circuit and the district courts, in the exercise of the jurisdiction conferred upon those courts by the act of congress in which it is found. The United States appeared by Emmett O'Neal, United States attorney for the Northern district of Alabama, and filed a motion to dismiss the petition upon the following grounds: First. The act of congress in question authorized interest only on the judgments of the circuit and district courts, and that interest on judgments of the court of claims, except in cases where an appeal is taken by the United States, is not authorized. Second. Having accepted the principal on the judgment rendered by the court of claims, the plaintiff cannot now recover interest in a separate action. The same grounds of defense were presented by a demurrer. After hearing argument, the district court made the following order:
"This case, coming on for hearing, was submitted upon brief for decision by the court, and, on consideration thereof, the court finds for the plaintiff 0'1 the issues joined. It is therefore considered by the court that the plaintiff, Robert Barber, have and recover from the United States, the defendant herein, the sum of $18.45."
To this judgment the United States excepted, and assigned the same as error. Notwithstanding the small amount involved in this case, it is evident from the record, and from the carefully prepared briefs and arguments of counsel, that its determination is of much consequence. This determination must depend upon the construction given to the act of congress of March 3, 1887, which, under the conditions therein mentioned, opens the circuit and district courts of the United States to suits of a certain class against the government. The liability of the government to pay interest exists only where it is authorized by express legislation. In the Case of U. So v. Bayard, 127 U.S. 251-261, 8 Sup. Ct. 1156, Mr. Justice Blatchford, for the court, declares:
"The case, therefore, falls within the well-settled principle that the United States are not liable to pay interest on claims against them, in the absence of express statutory prOVisions to that effect. It has been established, as a general rule, in the practice of the government, that interest is not allowed on
claims against it, whether such claims originate in contract or in tort, or whether they arise in the ordinary business of administration, or under private acts of relief, passed by congress on special application. '1'he only recognized exceptions are where the government stipuiates to pay interest, and where interest is given expressly by act of congress, either by the Dame of interest, or by that of damages."
After pointing out that this principle has been regarded as controlling by the attorney general, the treasury, and the legislative department, where congress has refused to pass any general law for the allowance and payment of interest on claims against the government, the learned justice continues as follows:
'''l'he principle above stated is recognized by this court. In Tillson v. U. S., 100 U. S. 43-47, this court, speaking of the rule that interest is recoverable between citizens if a payment of the money is unreasonably delayed, says that with the government the rule is different, and that the practice has long prevailed in the departments of not allowing interest on claims presented except it is in some way specially provided for. See, also, Gordon v. U. S., 7 Wall. 188; Harvey v. U. S., 11;:\ L. S. 243-24H. & Sup. Ct. 4(;',)." Subsequent to the decision of U. S. v. Bayard, 127 U. S. 251, 8 Sup. Ct. 1156, the supreme court passed on the case of Morley v. Railroad Co., 14(; U. S. 162-179, 13 Sup. Ct. 54. There :Mr. Justice Shiras, for the court, pointed out the distinction between interest when provided for in a contract, and when resulting from the operation of law. '1'he legislature of New York had reduced the rate of interest; and, the court of appeals of that state having held that a judgment obtained before the passage of the act of the legislature was subject to the operation of the act, error was assigned to the supreme court of the United States, upon the ground that the legislation in question impaired the obligation of the contract. '1'hat court held, however, that the judgment creditor nan no contract with his debtor which forbade the state from legislating, within its discretion, to reduce the rate of interest upon judgments previously obtained in its courts, and interest until payment, not expressly provided for by contract, is as statutory damages for the delay. 'Should,' said .Justice Shiras, 'the statutory damages for nonpayment of a judgment be determined by a state either in whole or in part, the owner of the judgment will be entitled to and bave a vested right in, the damages which shall have accrued up to tbe date of the legislative cbange; but after tbat time his rights as t,) interest as damages are, as when he first obtained his jndgment, just what the legislature chooses to declare. He has no contract whatever on the subject with the defendant in the judgment, and his right is to receive, and dpf'endant's obligation is to pay, as damages, just what the state chooses to prescribe.' "
Indeed, it is true that the right to recover interest did not exist at common law (11 Am. & Eng. Ene. Law, p. 379); and in this country it has been held to be entirely a creature of the statute. only allowed where so authorized. It has been held by the supreme court of Mississippi that, even where there is a general statute on the subject of interest, it does not apply to claims against a county authorized by a special statute, which makes no provision for interest. Board of Sup'rs v. Klein. 51 Miss. 807; Board of Sup'rs Clay Co. v. Board of Sup'rs Chickasaw Co., 64 Miss. 534, 1 South. 753. See, also, Railroad Co. v. Cobb, 72 Ill. 152; Chicago v. Allcock, 86 Ill. 385; and Commissioners v. Dunlevy, 91 Ill. 54. It will be se therefore, n, that at common law, in the jurisprudence of the states, and of the United States, it has been settled that the right to interest must exist, if at all, by contract, or by express statutory enactment. In this case, since there was no contractual liability, the inquiry follows logically, has congress, in the act relied upon, or elsewhere, au-
thorized the collection of interest on the judgments rendered by the court of claims '? Section 1090, Rev. St., relating to the judgment of that court, provides:
"In cases where the judgment appealed from is in favor of the claimant, and the same is affirmed by the supreme court, interest thereon at the rate of five per centum per annum shall be allowed thereon from the date of its presentation to the secretary of the treasury a.s aforesaid, but no interest sha.ll be allowed subsequent to the affirmance, unless presented for payment to the secretary of the treasury as aforesaid."
Section 1091 provides that "no interest shall be allowed on any claim up to the time of the rendition of the judgment thereon by the court of claims, unless upon a contract expressly stipulating for the payment of interest." . These statutes, it will be observed., were expressive of the policy of the government not to pay interest on judgments of that court, save under the exceptional cases mentioned. There was no appeal here, and, as we have seen, no contract expressly stipulating for the payme-nt of interest. The defendant in error insists, however, that his right to interest is found in the act of March 3, 1887. He points out that its first section revises the jurisdiction of the court of claims, and its second section confers jurisdiction, within certain limits, as to the amount sued for, upon the district and circuit courts. Some of the remaining provisions of the act relate specially to the court of claims, some to the district and circuit courts, while others are general in their operation. Section 10 provides, as before stated, that "from the date of said final judgment or decree, interest shall be computed thereon at the rate of four per centum per annum until thetimewhen an appropriation is made for the payment of the judgment or decree." He draws the inference that there is nothing which limits the language thus quoted to the payment of interest on judgments of the district and circuit courts. Seeking; to apply the familiar rule of 1. Bl. Comm. 87: "There are three points to be considered in the construction of all remedial statutes,-the old law, the mischief, and the remedy," he argues that the old law the national legislatnre sought to reform occasioned the difficulty in the collection of interest, the mischief was that difficulty, and the consequent Q('lay, and the remedy is now afforded by the provision of section 10 of the act of 1887, making the government liable for interest on the final judgment or decree at the rate of 4 per centum per annum, until the proper appropriation is made, with the coercive effect to compel prompt a.ppropriation by congress. If these premises of the learned counsel were accepted by the court as accurate, we would have less trouble in the application to this case of the well-known rule of construction afforded by the luminous and scholarly Blackstone. The title of the act of March 3,1887, and the phraseology of the act itself, do not seem to import that the national legislature had in mind that special mischief of the old law which has been impressed on counsel for the defendant in error. It is entitled "An act to provide for the bringing of suits against the government of the United States." The
mischief which congress was seeking to redress existed principally, we think, in the fact that the court of claims was remote from the multitude of the people haYing causes of action against the goyernment, and was, therefore, difficult of access; that these conditions were virtually prohibitory of suits, unless the amounts involved were large enough to justify a hea,,"'Y outlay on the part of suitors. The remedy consisted in the opportunity the act permitted to bring suit to the amount of $10,000 in the circuit courts, and to the amount of $1,000 in the district courts, which are courts convenient to the people of the several states. Since this was the primary object of the legislation, the court will not make haste to seize npon a clause which may not impinge upon statutes expressing the sdtled policy of the government not to pay interest on claims against it, save in exceptional cases, and, by construction, impose a policy altogether different. This is especially true in view of the fact that, if congress had entertained the intention to repeal s2ctions 1090 and 10Ul of the Revised Statutes, it would have done so in express langllage, as it did in this act repeal section 1079. Moreoyer, an obvious constIllction of section 10 of the act of March 3, 1887, in connection with other cognate and essential sections of the same act, will plainly indicate that the contention of the defendant in error is untenable. Section 6 provides a method for suits in the circuit and district courts, and that copies of the petition shall be served upon the district attorney of the United States in the district wherein the suit is brought. It prescribes what shall be the duty of the district attorney with reference to said suit, and what the courts of the several districts may do in case the district attorney fails to make the proper defense. These provisions, manifestly, have no relation to the court of claims, for the district attorney and the courts of the several districts, it is needless to say, have nothing to do with that court. Section 7 provides that the court shall canse a written opinion to be filed in the case, setting out the specific find· ings by the court, and its conClusions upon the questions of law involved in the case, and shall render judgment thereon. If the suit be in equity or admiralty, the court shall proceed in the same way, according to the rules of said court. This language manifestly relates to the circuit and district courts, both which have jurisdiction in equity, and one in admiralty. Now section 10 provides:
"That, when the findings of fact and law applicable thereto have been filed in any ease as provided in section 6 of this act [the word 'six' having been inserted by error where 'seven' should have been used], and the judgment or decree is adverse to the government, it shall be the duty of the district attorney to transmit to the attorney general of the United States certified copies of all the papers filed in the cause. with a transcript of the testimony taken, the written findings of the court, and his written opinion as to the same."
Since the district attorney is the counsel for the government in the circuit and district courts, and not in the court of claims, where the government is represented directly by the attorney general and his assistants, this language must necessarily be construed to refer to the circuit and the district courts. Then the language relied upon by defendant in error follows:
"From the date of such final judgment or decree, Interest shall be thereon, at the rate of four per centum per annum, until the time when the appropriation is made for the payment of the judgment or decree."
We think it is clear that the term "such final judgment or decree," as used in the proviso just quoted, relates to the judgment or decree of the district or circuit courts concerning which the district attorney is intrusted with specific duties in other portions of the sections, and the district and circuit courts with other duties, and not the judgment or decree of the court of claims, with which he has no concern whatever, and which has no general jurisdiction in equity or admiralty. Weare strengthened in this construction of the proviso in section 10 of the act of March 3, 1887, from the fact that, since the passage of the act, congress, at every session, has made special appropriations, according to the provisions of section 1090 of the Revised Statutes, for judgments of the court of claims; and, in the deficiency appropriation of 1890, it enacted as follows:
"And on jUdgments in favor of claimants which have been appealed by th& United States and affirmed by the supreme court of the United States, interest at the rate of four per cent. per annum shall be allowed and paid from the date of the filing of the transcript of judgment in the treasury department up to and including the date of the mandate of affirmance by the supreme court; provided that in no case shall interest be allowed after the term ot the supreme court at which said judgment was affirmed." 26 Stat. 537.
This legislation affords a sufficient reply to the argument of the learned counsel for the defendant in error that section 1090 of the Revised Statutes was repealed by the act of March 3, 1887. It ill evident, by this provision, that congress intended to make the rate of interest on judgments of the court of claims the same as that provided on judgments of the circuit and district courts, but carefully reiterated the policy that it should be payable only on judgments appealed to and affirmed by the supreme court, and as carefully denied interest, even on such judgments, which might accrue after the term at which the judgment was affirmed. It appears plainly from the terms of the act itself, and by this subsequent legislation, that interest is only allowable on the judgments which may be obtained in the circuit and district courts. Congress might very well consent to allow interest on these comparatively small claims. and yet refuse to disturb the policy of the government-which does not allow interest on the claims, sometimes amounting to millions, which may be recovered in the court of claims. This is the construction given by the executive department; and in Brown v. U. S., 113 U. S. 570, 5 Sup. Ct. 648, citing Edwards v. Darby, 12 Wheat. 206, in the construction of a doubtful and ambiguous law, the contemporaneous construction of those who are called upon to act under the law, and were appointed to carry this provision into effect, is entitled to great respect. See, also, Atkins v. Disintegrating Co., 18 Wall. 272r-301; Smythe v. Fiske, 23 Wall. 374; U. S. v. Moore, 95 U. S. 760-763. In the latter case the court observed that the construction given to the statute by those charged with the duty of executing it ought not to be overruled without cogent reasons. 'The officers are generally able men, and masters of the subject. Not in-
UliITED STATES V. BOARD OF LIQUIDATION OF NEW ORLEANS.
frequently they are the draftsmen of the law, and are called upon to enforce it. Moreover, in the case ofU. S. v. Jones, 131 U. S. 18, 9 Sup. Ct. 669, a case depending upon the act of March 3, 1887, but not involving this precise question, Justice Bradley remarked, regarding Rev. St. §§ 1089 and 1090: "These sections are still the law on the subject to which they relate, being necessary to the completion of the system, and not being supplied by any other enactment. Indeed, they are expressly retained." Since these sections provide the conditions on which interest may be paid on judgments in the court of claims, the learned justice, in the language used on the same pages, cannot, we think, be properly understood to be of opinion that the provisions in section 10 of the act of March 3, 1887, apply to interest on judgments obtained in that court. The views being decisive, we do not advert to other questions discussed in the valuable brief of the district attorney. We are satisfied that the judgment of the district court was erroneous, and it is ordered reversed.
UNITED STATES ex reI. SIEGEL v. BOARD OF LIQUIDATION OF NEW ORLEANS. (Circuit Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit. Ko. 488.
May 26, 1800.)
Article 254 of the constitution of Louisiana of 1879 made it the duty of the general assembly to enact legislation to liquidate the indebtedness of the city of New Orleans, and apply its assets to the satisfaction thereof. Thereupon the general assembly, by Act 133 of 1880, amended by Act 67 of 1884, created the board of liquidation of New Orleans, with authority to refund the floating debt of the city by the issue and sale of bonds; but both acts expressly excluded from the refunding, so provided for, the 1l0ating debt of the year 1S79. One S., holding claims against the city, which were a part of the floating debt of that year, applied for a mandamus to compel the board of liquidation to fund or pay his claims, averring that the exclusion of his claims from the benefit of the refunding scheme WitS in violation of said article 2.",4 of the constitution. Held, that even if such exclusion was unconstitutional, the general assembly having made no provision for the board of liquidation to refund or pay S.'s claims, but having expressly forbidden it to do so, the court could not, by mandamus, compel the board to issue bonds to S., under the refunding scheme.
In Error to the Circuit Court of the United States for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Chas. Lonque and J. R. Beckwith, for plaintiff in error. Branch K. Miller, for defendant in error. Before PARDEE and Circuit Judges, and SPEER, District Judge, SPEER, District Judge. Henry Siegel, a citizen and subject of the empire of Germany, presented to the circuit court for the Eastern district of Louisiana this petition for a writ of mandamus.

Lawrence Park is an affluent neighborhood within Toronto, being ranked the wealthiest neighborhood in all of Canada in the year of 2011. The reason it is such a sought after area is due to its close proximity to the Downtown core of Toronto, as well as proximity to upscale amenities; These amenities consist of elite social clubs, such as The Rosedale Golf Club and The Granite Club, high end shopping, fine dining restaurants and excellent schools for children.
Lawrence Park was one of the first planned garden suburbs in Toronto; its tranquil settings of open parks, lush green space and tree lined streets winding around low hills, create a peaceful topography and beautiful living space.
Centered on Mount Pleasant Road this community boasts beautiful medium to large houses on properties with deep lot sizes. You can find commercial businesses within a five minute walking distance, along with very good shopping amenities walking distance, such as close grocery stores conveniently located right on Yonge and Lawrence.
The area of Lawrence Park is bordered by Yonge Street to the west and Bayview Avenue to the east, and from Blythwood Ravine on the south to Lawrence Avenue on the north.
Lawrence Park was one of the first planned garden suburbs in Toronto, as previously mentioned. It began in the early part of the 20th century; however it did not fully develop until after the Second World War. The assembly of Lawrence Park began in the year 1907 by the Dovercourt Land Building and Saving Company, which acquired the area from John Lawrence, after whom it is named from, creating an exclusive suburb for the "well to do" of society.
The president of the Dovercourt Land Company was Wilfred Servington Dinnick. In the early years it was both Howard and Lorrie Dunnington-Grubb (founders of the Sheridan Nurseries) who had undertaken most of the landscaping and architecture for the parks, green space and boulevards of the whole suburb.
After much of the main creation of the area was developing, the very first advertisement for Lawrence Park boasted it as an "Aristocratic Neighborhood". However, Lawrence Park's development was sporadic as the building of houses was put on hold and interrupted by two world wars, a recession and a great depression. It wasn't until the year 1950 and on that the district of Lawrence Park was completed.
Lawrence Park's houses boast a variety of architectural designs, such as the classic English Cottage, Tudor Revival, Georgian and Colonial style designs. Most of these houses were built between the year 1910 and the late 1940's. However, in recent years, parts of Lawrence Park have been redeveloped and newly constructed with larger housing sizes, which do not match the original housing size or style in the neighborhood; but still stunning depending on different tastes.
Whether it is a newly constructed or renovated classic, all have top of the line glass windows, high ceilings, elegant wood moldings, rich real hardwood flooring and deep lot sizes with front lawn landscaping are common in Lawrence Park. Renovations to existing houses have been sensitive in order to maintain and to preserve their old world charm and original feel of Lawrence Park.
In the year 2011, the average resale house price in the neighborhood was $2,421,036, higher than any area in the neighborhoods of Toronto, excluding the Bridle Path.
An example of recent listings in Lawrence Park categorized as a "low price" for the area, would be a house on a 50 ft lot size with spacious living and dining rooms for easy entertaining, a renovated kitchen opening to a sitting room with Muskoka-style sunken family room opening to the south deck. Within the backyard area can be found a beautiful garden landscaped with a concrete pool. Houses as described above were offered for sale at $1,595,000 "low price" for the area. However, an example of listings of recent newly built houses categorized as a "high price" for the area, would be houses that exist of 8,600 square feet on 3 levels with a permit for both a pool and waterfalls, an existing nanny suite, 3 family rooms, a media room, 5 fireplaces, heated floors, a spa and exercise room, a wine cellar, a library and 7 walk-out entrances to the exterior listed at $4, 495,000.
A new real estate development known as Tridel Toronto located in Lawrence Park, has been established winning Project of the Year for 2008 from the Ontario Home Builder's Association with their luxurious condos, The Huntington Toronto Condominiums; Inspired by natural surroundings, with beautiful green space and gardens throughout and views overlooking Sherwood Park Ravine. These condominiums and living space are known as an "exceptional community", with elegant units boasting a classic architectural style and design, a French Beaux Arts style façade, and common areas reminiscent of areas found in English hotels.
The Huntington Toronto condominiums are crafted with the finest finishes in solid wood, granite, marble or quartz countertops, tiled walls and the choice of flooring which are polished or honed sealed granite, marble or limestone in the bathrooms with Hans Grohe bathroom fixtures, quarter sawn oak plank hardwood in the living room, hallways, libraries and bedrooms. In addition, residents can feel safe and secured with the 24 hour concierge and personally encoded security alarms.
Adjacent and continuing west towards Bathurst Street is another affluent neighborhood pocket known as Lytton Park. Lytton Park fills a partly hidden valley around Strathallan Boulevard. These two neighborhoods are often confused with each other. Lawrence Park's western boundary is Yonge Street, while Lytton Park continues westward towards Bathurst Street.
There are many upscale shops and renowned restaurants in the Yonge and Lawrence, Bayview and Mount Pleasant area. This district includes fashion shops and children's shops, sporting goods stores, gift shops, and boutique shops are very accessible and will carry everything from antique, art galleries to high end shops like Melmira Bra & Swimsuits and Felichia which is a boutique shop creating custom dresses. Spas such as the Ivashi Bedrock Spa and Civello Hair Salon, eco-friendly stores like Dandelion Mud Pie on Fairlawn and Ten Thousand Villages.
Along Avenue Road there Pusateri's Fine Foods which is a popular destination. Also found on Yonge and Lawrence is the option of fine dining restaurants such as Cravings (Pan-Asian food) and Blue Zen (Japanese fusion), North 44 and Centro (Italian) and Classico Louie's. Also, in the area there is the 3080 Yonge Street Shopping Plaza on the corner of Lawrence and Yonge with restaurants along the street, such as the popular Golden Griddle Pancake House. Just south of the 401 there are a variety of upscale restaurants where many families come during dinner time to share quality food with each other. The same can be found along Yonge Street, with establishments such as Alex on Yonge with over 400 cheeses, The Friendly Butcher.
There is also a well-equipped Recreation Centre called the Granite Club, a sports and recreation centre on Bayview Avenue north of Lawrence Avenue. The Granite Club has an abundance of both social and athletic activities for every personality and athletic ability, ranging from bowling to computer classes, from ballet and dance classes to art classes.
There is also family recreation within Lawrence Park with stunning walkways and trails within Blythwood Ravine, boasting a wide variety of trees that surround magnificent picnic areas and footpaths and 3 tennis courts. The award winning Alexander Muir Memorial Garden is just next door, hidden from view of the street.
In addition, transportation around the area is accessible as Lawrence Subway Station, located at the intersection of Yonge and Lawrence, has entrances on Ranleigh Avenue and Bedford Park Road and thankfully frequent bus service running both east and west. Both motorists and Lawrence Park residents seem to mostly fall into this category, as they both have access to Bayview and Yonge Street connecting to Highway 401 within a 5 to 10 minute drive from Lawrence Park.
The area is home to a variety of excellent schools such as:
Havergal CollegeToronto French School Lawrence Park Collegiate Institute Blythwood Jr. Sunny View Jr. Bedford Park Public School The Crescent School Crestwood School Blessed Sacrament Loretto Abbey Catholic Secondary School Glendon College of York University The School Of Liberal Arts.
