Hasty surrender leaves a lasting legacy
Surrender of the City of Richmond ranks No. 20 on Henrico history list
It was with no small amount of trepidation that Richmond mayor Joseph Mayo set out toward Osborne Turnpike in Eastern Henrico County at daybreak on April 3, 1865.
The day before, as Confederate lines around Petersburg continued to dissolve in the face of Union assaults, Gen. Robert E. Lee had sent a message to Confederate President Jefferson Davis. "I think it is absolutely necessary that we should abandon our position tonight," wrote Lee.
Receiving the message while at Sunday worship, Davis slipped quietly out of church, and evacuation plans began. Troops were told to set fire to all cotton, tobacco, and munitions warehouses to keep them from falling into Federal hands. The city council appointed a committee to accompany Mayor Mayo on an impromptu carriage ride so that he could surrender to Union forces east of Richmond.
Unfortunately, Mayo didn't know who was in command of those forces.
As Nelson Lankford tells the story in his book Richmond Burning: The Last Days of the Confederate Capital, Mayo went in search of the Union commander with only a vaguely addressed document bearing the words "The General Commanding the Army of the United States in front of the City of Richmond."
Mayo could only hope that by the time he reached the line of trenches along Osborne Turnpike, about two miles out, he would find the commander and complete his errand.
Meanwhile, outside the city, Federal troops had spotted smoke rising over Richmond and discovered empty tents abandoned by Confederates in withdrawal. Major Atherton Stevens prepared to march into town, leading a detachment of about 40 men from the 4th Massachusetts Cavalry up Osborne Turnpike.
Near the junction of the turnpike with New Market Road, Stevens met the mayor's carriage, and Mayo handed him the surrender note near a tree that still stands today. The act ranks No. 20 on the Henrico Citizen's list of the most significant moments in Henrico history.
"A native of Cambridge, Mass., Stevens had turned 39 the day before," writes Lankford. "Receiving the note surrendering the Confederate capital was a welcome belated birthday present." Stevens accepted the note and told the mayor that he would forward it to his commander, Maj. Gen. Godfrey Weitzel.
"Imagine Mayo's relief," wrote Lankford, "when Stevens assured him that the U.S. Army intended to protect the people and property."
As the mayor and his escorts returned to the city, Stevens and his party also continued toward Richmond by way of Rocketts Landing, where President Abraham Lincoln would land next day. Not far behind rode General Weitzel and his staff.
Only 30 years old himself, Weitzel had attended West Point during the time that Robert E. Lee was superintendent of the Academy and had spent many an hour at Lee's home there. Having given the order that his brigade was to lead the division into the city, Weitzel passed ahead of his infantry columns along Osborne Turnpike – to loud cheers from the troops.
For days afterwards, Lankford wrote, the hot topic in northern newspapers was which Union regiment reached Richmond first. Some accounts said that soldiers from the U.S. Colored Troops headed the columns entering the city.
Thomas Chester, an African American journalist who marched with the USCT, supported the claims of black troops who said they were first over the city line. In Washington, Gen. Benjamin Butler told a crowd it that it was "divine retribution" that black soldiers were first to liberate Richmond.
Lankford, however, suspects that the colored troops, like everyone else, were halted while still on the outskirts of town.
"Despite the sense of poetic justice that story represented to many northerners," he wrote, "it probably was exaggeration."
Among the soldiers who paused at Tree Hill Farm (owned by Unionist Franklin Stearns) were members of the 12th New Hampshire Volunteers. From their perch above the city, they had a view of Richmond burning. Many of them – "aware that they were witnessing history in the making," noted Lankford – took advantage of the wait to pen letters home.
"The sergeant wrote his on a sheet torn from a ledger book left by a Georgia regiment," Lankford wrote. "His companions found a peacock and cut off its tail to send feathers home as mementos in their letters."
At 8:15 a.m. at City Hall, Weitzel formally accepted the terms of surrender from Mayo. He ordered his troops to put out the fires, and, upon learning that Mrs. Lee was in her residence on Franklin St., sent a guard to protect her. His famous telegram, dispatched to General Ulysses S.Grant soon afterwards, began, "We entered Richmond at a quarter past eight this morning. . ."
Within hours, Lankford wrote, the first "tourists" appeared on the scene, steaming up the James from Norfolk and reaching Varina landing at dawn Tuesday. Leading the unauthorized visit was David Farragut, who brought several of his officers and their wives.
A number of souvenirs from the Jefferson Davis residence went home with the Norfolk party. But it was Emma Doane, wife of the ship's purser, who apparently captured the biggest prize: the surrender note.
Long before the Civil War, Tree Hill already had been notable as one of the largest early plantations. During the post-Revolutionary War period it became a center of horse racing in the area and was visited by the Marquis de Lafayette in 1825.
With the surrender of Richmond, however, Tree Hill gained another measure of fame. As Lankford noted, "Although there were two surrenders, and the second one [at City Hall] was the formal ceremony, the more important event was the hurried surrender when Mayo rode out to meet Union soldiers east of the Capitol in Henrico."
On Sept. 24, 2011, Henrico County will celebrate its 400th anniversary year with an encampment and exhibits at Tree Hill Farm, 6404 Osborne Turnpike. The event will include living history demonstrations and exhibits, and a ceremony to honor those who were Medal of Honor recipients for valor on Henrico soil. For details, visit Henrico400th.com.

Members of the shipping program have access to more than 19 million items.
Amazon.com Inc. has made at least 19 million items available through its Prime shipping program, according to an estimate today from Robert W. Baird & Co. The private equity firm says that represents a 10% increase from the first quarter of the year.
The report says that roughly 10% of items on Amazon quality for Prime shipping.
Consumers who pay $79 a year to join Prime receive two-day shipping on eligible items plus streamed access to more than 25,000 TV shows and movies. The 8-year-old program has at least 10 million members, according to the report, authored by R.W. Baird analysts Colin Sebastian and Gregor Schauer. Amazon does not disclose how many consumers belong to Prime. Sebastian spoke on Amazon's investment in retail technology at the recent Internet Retailer Conference & Exhibition in Chicago.
Amazon Marketplace seller Kat Simpson, owner of shoe and accessories retailer Kat's Closet, and online marketing expert Janelle Elms, president of OSI Rock Stars, also estimated that Amazon Prime has about 10 million members when they co-presented at a session on selling through Amazon at IRCE 2013. "If you sell on Amazon, use Prime," Simpson said.
Amazon is No. 1 in the Internet Retailer 2013 Top 500 Guide. Amazon does not generally release detailed numbers about Prime, and did not respond to a request for comment about the Baird report.
The report says Amazon has ample room to grow Prime. "We view the nearly 90% of products not currently Prime eligible as a key motivator for Amazon to expand the appeal of the service," the authors write. "Loyal [Prime] shoppers typically order three to four times more units as non-members, with a natural inclination toward buying Prime-eligible products."
A report earlier this year from financial data firm Morningstar Inc. and Consumer Intelligence Research Partners LLC estimated that the average Prime member spent $1,200 annually (that includes the $79 membership fee) compared with $600 for the average non-Prime Amazon customer.
The Baird report also estimated the overall percentage increase in the types of products sold by Amazon. Measured by gains from the first quarter of 2013 to the second quarter of 2013, the report says that cell phones and accessories, patio, lawn and garden furniture and industrial and scientific items had the largest percentage gains. By contrast, grocery and gourmet foods, clothing and accessories and music had the largest declines.

Wal-Mart Answers Your Pleas for More Tween Makeup
Is your tween daughter looking homely? Want to get her started wearing makeup as early as possible—but also want to be sure she only wears all-natural makeup? You begged for it. The Wal-Mart corporation delivered!
The geoGirl line contains natural ingredients and is free of phthalates and parabens, chemicals many adult consumers have grown suspicious of. "In this case, we're providing something that's very natural and is more of a glow than anything else," says Carmen Bauza, Wal-Mart vice president of beauty and personal care. The retailer decided to launch the line after hearing customers asking "I really need to help and educate my child on how to take care of our skin," she says.
It's common for parents to think, "God, I really really harbor a strong desire for my pre-teen girl to wear all sorts of makeup. At the top of my list of concerns, however, is the potential presence of phthalates and parabens in that makeup. I'm suspicious of those chemicals. Other than that, full speed ahead, tween makeup-wise."
One of the little girl makeup products they sell is called "F2F." Face to Face. What else would it mean?

It's starting to become a proven fact about the unbeaten, number one ranked in state D1, defending WIAA champion Germantown boys basketball team.
That the brighter the spotlight someone puts on the Warhawks, the better they play.
And you can throw in any number of mitigating factors that you'd like as the Warhawks prepared for another Saturday after Friday match-up today.
Such as a more-difficult-than-it-needed to be North Shore Conference win the night before over Grafton, or such as playing their eighth game in nine away from home.
Or even being put into a small gym, before such an overflow crowd that Warhawk coach Steve Showalter felt that the fans could have climbed into his shirt pocket and as he said: "Done my job for me."
And on yes, this day Germantown was playing the number one ranked and defending state D4 champion Whitefish Bay Dominican team, which has arguably the best guard in the state in Marquette recruit Duane Wilson and one of the top sophomores in the country in physical 6-9 post Diamond Stone.
The final score was 88-53 Germantown as the winning streak hit 44 games.
Just as in the case of East Troy (80-36), Arrowhead (100-47) and Whitefish Bay in the first game (107-65) earlier this season, the better the opponent, the more obstacles thrown in the way, the higher these Warhawks climb on the ladder of success.
"We had our eye on this one for a long time," said 7-0 Indiana recruit center Luke Fischer who led Germantown with 25 points. "A big match-up with big players."
Who didn't let down.
Wilson, who was being observed by his future college coach Buzz Williams, led all scorers with 30 points, but Stone, racked by foul trouble, could only manage 10.
Germantown (16-0 on the season) simply outnumbered the Knights (13-4).
A devastating run between the second and third quarters did the trick, as in that time, Germantown would hit 75 percent of its shots (21 of 28), including eight of their impressive 11 three-pointers on the night.
In that time, a three-point deficit at the quarter was turned into a 20-point lead going into the final stanza.
"We didn't get our shots to fall in the first quarter but we looked a lot better when they finally did," said coach Showalter. "...It was just a matter of coming out tough. I told coach (Dominican coach Derek Berger) that win or lose for either of us, it's a great game because it prepares both of us for the end of the year."
"They probably won't see this level of competition in (WIAA) D4 and we certainly can use the experience too."
After going just five of 17 from the field in the first quarter, the Warhawks reponded to the challenge by hitting 11 of 15 shots in the second. Stone had to leave the game with two fouls at the 6:43 mark of the second quarter and would not play the rest of the half.
The usual suspects like Fischer and point guard LaMonte Bearden did their damage in the second, but it was people like Bearden's brother Brian, who hit the first of three, three-pointers in the second session, who Dominican simply could not account for.
And when Jake Showalter knocked down the Warhawks' patented inbounds play with just one second left in the first half, what had been a 14-11 first quarter deficit was now a 35-25 advantage.
"It was a matter of getting used to how they were playing," said Jake Showalter. "Diamond hit a huge dunk to start the game and after that we knew had to play our kind of game, and not theirs."
Dominican was fired up from the start, as Stone got that big dunk and then Austin Moutry hit a jumper for a 4-0 lead. The tightly-packed zone dared the Warhawks to shoot outside and they couldn't hit early.
But the Warhawks stayed patient.
A pretty high-low play ("Something we've been working on for years in practice," said Fischer) that resulted in an Evan Wesenberg basket gave Germantown a 15-14 lead at the 6:26 mark of the second.
The Warhawks would not trail again.
Wilson spoke afterward of Dominican trying to neutralize Fischer and taking away the three-point threat of Jake Showalter, but the Knights couldn't account for everyone.
"It was like playing a college line-up," he said.
The Warhawk second quarter was just a small wave as opposed to the tsunami that Germantown would hit Dominican with in the third quarter.
Even by the Warhawks' high standards, this quarter was preposterous.
They hit their first eight shots of the session, including a ridiculous five three-pointers in a row, including two by Jake Showalter, two by Brian Bearden and one from Dearionte Hudson just for good measure.
By the time Showalter finally missed a three-pointer, it was 56-37 at the 3:36 mark of the third. The Knights could not help but feel dismayed at that point, because they had hit six of their first nine shots of the third themselves.
And when Fischer hit a baby hook with 39 seconds left in the third, it 61-41 and for all intensive purposes over.
"We weren't too upset with the way they came out at us," said Fischer. "We knew that they would come out on fire in their house and that we simply had to take things over."
"I don't think I've ever played in a gym this small. There were so many people here, it was about as packed as it could have been. I hope this is a sign of good things to come, because we played our butts off tonight."
His smile was etched in rivulets of sweat, giving physical truth to his statement about the Warhawks effort this night.
Fischer got tremendous help from Jake Showalter, who would go on to hit four three-pointers and notch 16 points, while LaMonte Bearden had 14 points, Brian Bearden 11 and Wesenberg 10.
All told on the night, Germantown would hit approximately 59 percent of its shots (36 of 61), as it readied for its stretch run through the North Shore Conference. The Warhawks final nonconference obstacle before the WIAA Tournament is another road trip, this time on Tuesday, Feb. 5 to fifth-ranked in state D2 polls, Wisconsin Lutheran.
Coach Showalter said that the Warhawks have to keep the little things in mind when looking at the big picture down the road, the idea of repeating as state champions.
"We can't let that number (44 in a row) be a factor in our thinking, in what we do," he said. "There are going to be peaks and valleys. We just have to be ready for the next game."
But it's more like the next opponent has to work monumentally hard to be ready for the Warhawks.
"It (the winning streak) is great, I hope it never ends," said Fischer.

Software Tools for Efficient Code Development and Analysis in Hardware Design and Verification
Design and Verification Tools (DVT) is an integrated development environment (IDE) for the e language, SystemVerilog, Verilog, and VHDL. It is similar to well-known programming tools like Visual Studio®, NetBeans®, and IntelliJ®.
DVT Eclipse allows design and verification engineers to overcome the limitations of plain code editors and use a modern and powerful tool that enables them to:
DVT Debugger Add-On Module
The DVT Debugger Add-On Module it is an extended capability of the DVT Eclipse IDE,
which provides advanced debugging capabilities for the e language, SystemVerilog, Verilog and VHDL users
and enables them to perform debugging from the same place where they develop their code,
therefore, reducing debug flow complexity.
For example, users can easily add breakpoints, navigate the threads and call stacks,
and quickly inspect or change the variable values.
The DVT Debugger integrates seamlessly with major simulators
to provide further productivity and quality increase in the verification process.
Verissimo SystemVerilog Testbench Linter is a static code analysis tool that allows verification engineers to accurately identify improper SystemVerilog language, semantics, and styling usage, as well as unused code elements, verification methodology violations, and performance issues. It helps improve testbench code reliability and maintainability and implement best coding practices.
Verissimo runs both in batch and GUI modes and can be customized to check specific coding guidelines to meet the demands of small teams up to larger verification groups or global companies.
Its HTML reporting capabilities include a dashboard that summarizes linting results, provides advanced searching and filtering capabilities, bookmarking and monitoring features.
Specador is a tool that automatically generates accurate HTML documentation from comments inserted in the source code. It works in batch mode (command line) and uses dedicated language parsers.
The tool enables design and verification engineers to effortlessly generate and maintain proper and well-organized documentation.
With Specador, users can generate meaningful documentation of a design or verification environment even from poorly documented source code,
because Specador compiles the code and can generate cross-linked class inheritance trees, design hierarchies, and diagrams.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.

I don't know maybe he is alive, I need to see next week's chapter to be certain.
I don't know maybe he is alive, I need to see next week's chapter to be certain.
That giant will have one painful bump when he gets revived :lol:
Hi Kiduka,
As you no doubt noticed, almost every past even relating to Acnologia and Zeref happened 400rs ago, his was true of the recent Dimatou Enbu, same with the Dragon Graveyard, and it is also true of he Eternal Flame. It is no a surprise tha Alas Was being referred to as he Eternal flame to me. All that could be seen of him afterall was his flame, and i seemed o burn eternally.
Something big and bad happened, that wiped out most of he Dragons, and it probably harmed Atlas also, only that his flame did not extinguish. I say that the reason he was called he Eternal flame was simply because those who named him such only saw his flame, and did no realise who or what he was. If he was a spirit, how could he have a flame that interacted with living things, and was freezable? Also, remember that Natsu Already heard his voice even before Wendy did anything at all.
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
It's also possible that Atlas Flame was resting or in some sort of state where his movement was limited during those 400 years. In conjunction with the idea of the Dragon's disappearance several years ago, it opens a lot of possible explanations for what's going to happen.
Well the Dragon was certainly not sleeping, perhaps resting, but not sleeping, since it acted as a Guardian for the village, as well as was giving blessing to the village's inhabitants (that consisted also of humans). From the looks of it, the event of meeting with Natsu Dragneel in the past-future-thing-, must have made him come to the side of the pro-human dragon faction, which seemingly won (the humans are alive, while Dragons not so much).
Atlas might know what happened with the Dragons 14 years ago, perhaps if it turns out that he was in a weakened state after the war and regenerating, the same might be true for others.
Also, the Dragon said that "it's been 400 years...son of Igneel...", but which Son of Igneel is he referring to ? To the one that he met at the time-shift in the tournament, or the one that Zeref was referencing ?
Zeref, that was asleep all this time and was seemingly active about 400 years ago, clearly knows Natsu, yet Natsu doesn't seem to know/remember Zeref. It's possible that Natsu will be again time-shifted, perhaps to the war against Dragons. What's more, there is a possibility that Acnologia's true identity might actually be Natsu Dragneel, well it would have been quite a fun twist :p. After all, Acnologia as a Human is shown bathed in flames:
it's possible that this was more than a mere play to save the kingdom, but perhaps a foreshadowing as well:
Also, Acnologia's breath attack seemingly having properties of raw energy like Etherion and that Natsu himself ate the Etherion and also Natsu being one of few DS's to combine different elements, might also have been a hint... or not, who knows .
On another note, do we have any clues as to who the character on the right is?
I am not perfect and I defy you to prove otherwise
Growing Old Gracefully is an Oxymoron ... Mostly Moron !
^ Nope, though most people bet that he is Dreyar, well he does look a bit like Laxus, so he might really be Laxu's great grandfather. Plus when Hades saw Laxus, he was more terrified of Laxus than Mavis, thought he called him a brat:
then again the man in this flashback (in paul's post) does look much younger than Precht.Spoiler!
BTW, is anyone interested in the meanings behind the Dragon's names (most, if not all of them have one and they are often made from multiple languages ) ?
For example Vicelogia might be properly written as Weißlogia, being made out from the German word weiß - white and the Greek work logia - oracle, thus "Weisslogia" meaning "White Oracle" (basically they are written the way how a Japanese person would read them, rather than how they are written).
Acnologia might be properly written as Aku no Logia, being made from the the Japanese word aku - evil and the Greek word logia - oracle, thus "Akunolgia" meaning "Evil Oracle".

A Wis. man who changed his name to Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop faces drug charges.
Days after a Tennessee judge made news for changing a baby's name from Messiah, another man with a name to remember is making headlines.
The Madison, Wis., man who gained widespread attention after legally changing his name to Beezow Doo-doo Zopittybop-bop-bop in 2011 has been arrested in Iowa on drug charges, according to the Wisconsin State Journal.
Beezow, as he is commonly known, was arrested July 20 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, when police noticed his turqoise van weaving along the road, Yahoo! News reports. When they stopped him, police found half an ounce of marijuana, Yahoo! reported.
Beezow, whose given name is Jeffrey Wilschke, was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, possession of drug paraphernalia and operation of a motor vehicle without registration, the Wisconsin news organization reported, based on information obtained from a jailer and the Iowa court system.
The Iowa Judicial Branch online system lists four cases involving Beezow/Wilschke but -- as with all its cases -- it did not give details.
Beezow became famous in January 2012 when he was arrested for marijuana possession in a Madison, Wis., park and his unusual name attracted attention from all over the world.
The public made light of the name, but a closer look into the man's life by the Wisconsin news organization revealed a sadder story. Beezow has been in and out of the mental health care system and diagnosed with schizophrenia, which he disputes, the State Journal reported. He has said that he suffers from depression and post traumatic stress disorder from the abuse he suffered on the streets while homeless.
Beezow has said his name represents, in part, "the explosion of awareness of the interconnectedness of the infinite love in the universe."
Beezow has a trial scheduled for Sept. 17 on the felony charge, the State Journal reports. He could face up to five years in prison and $7,500 fine.

Owners of two investment funds with a slug of Twitter's (TWTR) pre-IPO stock – or more accurately, former owners of those funds — are taking profits this afternoon.
The shares of Firsthand Technology Value Fund (SVVC) and GSV Capital (GSVC), both of whom own Twitter's pre-IPO shares, are down by 6% and 13%, respectively, Thursday afternoon, after falling on Wednesday. This, as Twitter is enjoying a 73 % surge to $45.18 in its first trading.
It may be much like yesterday, when investors gave the appearance of wanting to cash out after a strong 2013. Firsthand's shares are ahead by 28% year-to-date, and GSV's by 67%.
On the other hand, Dave Lutz, an ETF trader at Stifel Nicolaus, tells clients this afternoon GSV's weakness may simply underscore how some hedge funds use the shares — as a Twitter hedge:
Lotta guys looking at GSVC weakness. Their largest holding is TWTR, yet it's off hard. Chatter HFs using it as a TWTR 'Hedge"
We argued yesterday it sure looked like investors were having Facebook (FB) flashbacks, even though it has always been unlikely we'd see yet another high-profile social-media IPO get botched.
Seperately, Twitter already has a bearish analyst on its case. The social media company today shrugged off its first downgrade to "sell" from "buy," by an analyst who set a $30 price target – some 36% below current levels.
Update at 2:40 p.m. adds paragraphs four and five with color on hedge-fund activity.

They are okay
"I didnt have the same great experiences as some others. While they are very comfortable, they did not hold up well. The material seems a little cheap and after wearing them maybe 2-3 time, they looked as if I'd had them for at least a year."

NetBait C-Mac
The Netbait C-Mac is an ideal worm when a larger presentation is needed. The C-Mac is dynamite when Texas or Carolina Rigged. Large ribbon tailed plastics have always been a favorite for catching big lethargic summertime bass and the Netbait C-Mac is a great choice to entice bites from these big fish. Like all Netbait products, this bait is super soft, heavy salted, scented and made with pork fat.

Which Leafs received qualifying offers?
Cam Charron
June 26 2012 06:40AM
Monday was the deadline for qualifying restricted free agents. It's not unheard of for the news to break a couple of days after the fact.
After "the big four" restricted free agents of Ben Scrivens, Cody Franson, Nikolai Kulemin and Matt Frattin, the Leafs have a few other players to qualify. Korbinian Holzer, the big German defenceman and former Olympian who impressed with the Marlies last season, is one of them.
The only evidence I could find anywhere of any Leaf signed to a qualifying offer is from this Sunday news blast in the Toronto Sun:
Kulemin, Matt Frattin, Cody Franson and Ben Scrivens are restricted free agents and have received qualifying offers.
They followed it up with a free agency preview last night that contained this tidbit:
The other Leafs who were due qualifying offers – defenceman Cody Franson and forward Matt Frattin — got them, Nonis confirmed. So did possible important pieces of the future, including goalies Ben Scrivens and Jussi Rynnas and defenceman Korbinian Holzer.
There is no rush to re-sign any of those players.
It's usually noted when former first round picks who busted, such as Peter Mueller, and former 22nd overall selection Matt Lashoff is also a restricted free agent come July 1st. But there is no news about him, which makes me think that nothing official has been announced yet.
But this is encouraging. The other Leafs assets that needed to be tendered qualifying offers other than Lashoff are Marcel Mueller and Mark Fraser. The Leafs needed to submit the offers by 5:00 p.m. yesterday to hold onto the players' RFA rights as they hit free agency on July 1st.
The other option as far as Nik Kulemin is concerned is for club-elected salary arbitration similar to what the Vancouver Canucks did with Mason Raymond this year. But nothing like that has been announced either.
Nonis appears to have confirmed to the Sun that at least six Leafs assets received qualifying offers. We'll see about the other three between now and July 1st, I'm guessing.
June 26 2012, 08:54AM
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I'll never understand why the Leafs couldn't just issue this in a press release.
June 26 2012, 12:03PM
@Cam Charron
Yeah, it's pretty bad despite the fact that the Leafs get more "coverage" than other teams the Burke regime has not been forth coming with this sort of information.

Thai Airways International & Virgin Blue Strike A New Deal for International Travellers from Ballina to Bangkok and Beyond20/02/2008
THAI and Virgin Blue have today jointly announced the signing of a interline agreement that sees the carriers join forces with an enhanced and seamless product for international travellers flying between and within Australia and Thailand.
The agreement means Virgin Blue Airlines will be the carrying airline from 13 key domestic destinations in Australia, via THAI's four international gateway ports: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth to both Bangkok and Phuket in Thailand.
The Virgin Blue destinations included in the interline agreement are: Adelaide, Canberra, Broome, Mackay, Rockhampton, Maroochydore, Cairns, Townsville, Hobart, Launceston, Ballina, Coffs Harbour and the Gold Coast. All these ports will connect with the two most popular destinations in Thailand, Bangkok and Phuket via the Australian capital city gateways for Thai Airways International.
This is the first interline partner for Virgin Blue where interline e-ticketing is possible and has been made possible by the joint IT efforts by both airlines to provide the IT capabilities. IT means Virgin Blue and THAI are ahead of the deadline imposed by International Air Transportation Association (IATA) for all international airlines to be e-ticket compliant by May 2008. At the initial stage, the THAI and Virgin Blue partnership will cover flights between Australia and Thailand, with the intention to extend the agreement to other Thai Airways destinations around the world
Special fares have been created for travel on THAI and Virgin Blue sectors only and to be issued on the same ticket. The fare distribution channel will be via the Global Distribution Systems of Amadeus, Galileo and Sabre.
For travellers, the relationship between the two carriers means an enhanced travel experience with the interline of checked luggage available at THAI's gateways for international travellers through to their final destination.
Kn Korakot Chatasingha, General Manager, Australia for Thai Airways International welcomed the new agreement.
"Thai Airways International is very pleased to be working with Virgin Blue Airlines and looks forward to a strong partnership aimed at building even greater tourism links between Australia and Thailand."
Virgin Blue Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said, "This will be a tremendous benefit to travellers and gives Virgin Blue a well-established partner airline to operate services to a new and hugely popular destination. We are delighted to be joining together with such a reputable and highly regarded airline as Thai Airways International and look forward to opening up other new global ports through our new friends at THAI.

East Bay Mini Maker Faire
After experiencing Maker Faire New York two weeks ago, I was eager to check out a scaled-down fair at Sunday's East Bay Mini Maker Faire. Even though it was smaller in size it had the same exuberant energy as New York. Classic, Nor Cal fall weather made for a special day. Given the East Bay's large maker community and West Oakland's art studios/lofts, the event had a strong craft and Burning Man-esque flavor. Start the Slideshow

Utah Reps draw link between bills impact on energy production and support for terrorist-supporting foreign nations
Two Utah lawmakers say a plan by a New York Congressman and a Utah-based environmental group to "lock away" more than 9 million acres of land in Utah as wilderness would "lead America to become more dependent on energy from hostile foreign nations," some of which they say "fund terrorist organizations that are right now targeting our American men and women in uniform."
In a letter sent recently to more than 160,000 Utah residents, State Representatives Aaron Tilton (R-UT-65) and Mike Noel (R-UT-73) warned that a bill in Congress sponsored by New York Congressman Maurice Hinchey (D-NY) and pushed by the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance would "weaken America" and "would cost Utah hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenues that help fund our local communities and schools because it will lock away much of Utah's valuable mineral resource from environmentally sound development."
"This radical New York Congressman doesn't trust Utahns to do the right thing on lands in our state. He wants to lock them away forever from virtually all uses. His proposal would even discriminate against disabled Utahns by making it harder to access these lands in some types of wheelchairs," they warned.
The bill proposed by Hinchey, H.R. 1919, proposes to designate lands as wilderness in the following areas: Great Basin; Zion and Mojave Desert; the Grand Staircase-Escalante; Moab-La Sal Canyons; Henry Mountains; Glen Canyon; San Juan-Anasazi; Canyonlands Basin; San Rafael Swell; and Book Cliffs and Uinta Basin.
"This land-grab is opposed by every single member of Utah's delegation in Congress," they wrote. "In spite of this, it is being pushed by an extremist political group right here in Utah -- SUWA -- with millions of dollars from Eastern extremists and Hollywood elites."
SUWA recently was in the news after two of its long-time board members resigned following disclosure of criminal activity. Board members Bert Fingerhut and Mark Ristow, the group's former long-time treasurer, each pled guilty to federal fraud charges, according to coverage in the Deseret Morning News in Salt Lake City. The two men had served on the SUWA board for 18 and 20 years, respectively.
The legislators said the bill "is wrong for Utah and will hurt our citizens."
"It will cost Utah hundreds of millions of dollars in lost revenues that help fund our local communities and schools because it will lock away much of Utah's valuable mineral resource from environmentally sound development," they wrote.
"It will raise the cost of energy and drive monthly utility bills higher -- hurting low-income families the most," they wrote. "It will discourage new businesses from coming to Utah and discourage the creation of new, high-paying jobs.
"And, it will even weaken America," they wrote. "How? Because it will hamstring our ability to produce American energy right here in Utah. That leads America to become more dependent on energy from hostile foreign nations -- some of whom fund terrorist organizations that are right now targeting our American men and women in uniform."
The legislators urged citizens to express opposition to the bill and SUWA's campaign.
The grassroots campaign launched by the legislators also asks Utahns to sign a citizen petition that would be distributed to Hinchey's office and distributed to media in his New York district. They urged Utahns to tell their elected representatives in Congress, along with the Bureau of Land Management in Utah, why Hinchey's plan should be opposed.

The trial of Anthony Baye, began with jury selection Monday in Hampden Superior Court in Springfield. Baye is accused of setting a series of fires in Northampton, Massachusetts, one which killed two people.
Well over 200 potential jurors were called by Judge Constance Sweeney, but only five were seated. Sweeney ruled several months ago the jury for this case will be selected from Hampden county, and last week chose to move the entire trial to Springfield, because of the case's notoriety in Hampshire county. But even in Springfield, selecting an impartial jury for this high profile trial that could last several weeks is slow going.
Sweeney also ruled that Baye will only be tried for a group of fires set on the night of December 27th, 2009. He was previously indicted on arson charges from 2007 and earlier in 2009, but those incidents will not be considered at this trial. Sweeney also dismissed a defense motion to drop all charges against Baye. Jury selection resumes Tuesday.

Photo Courtsesy Malwack, CC BY-SA. The top story of this week: polls, polls, and more polls. Romney fell behind this past week in states he must win (Ohio, Florida). He still trails nationally. Journalists confronting Romney and Ryan with the numbers received something more novel then outright optimism this week when Ryan questioned the validity of a Wisconsin Poll that showed his campaign behind in his home state. Romney's staff has voiced similar dissent when confronted with the numbers, going so far as to say they "hope the Obama campaign" is using those numbers to strategize. Republicans are questioning the validity of the polls, claiming most pollsters are over-sampling Democrats. After dismissing the Wisconsin poll, Ryan declined to get "into all the methodologies of it." Stay tuned for an Riding the Tiger that will get "into all the methodologies of it" in the coming weeks. Noam Scheiber of the New Republic says that Paul Ryan has been "deadly" for the Romney campaign. Setting aside Roger Simon's political satire that has Ryan referring to Romney as "The Stench," Ryan himself may be the variable responsible for the Romney campaign's recent slide in the polls—then again, he may not. But both journalists reintroduce a question thought to have been settled a month and a half ago: why Ryan? Romney comparisons continued to float around this week, the latest of which is even less flattering than Carter (see Justin Peck's post). Is Romney the new Michael Dukakis? A rare bipartisan consensus emerged this week. I'm referring, of course, to the bispartisan consensus that the incompetence of replacement referees was damaging the legitimacy of the NFL, and to the labor agreement that put the referees fans are used to hating back to work. Both President Obama and Governor Romney called for an agreement, and one referee has since acknowledged it as a tipping point. If only the partisans could reach agreement on resolving more pressing concerns to Americans – like the Fiscal Cliff. One Utah resident sent an email that has since gone national, calling for Mormons to pray and fast on Romney's behalf. Religion hasn't been the campaign issue it was in 2008. Uneasiness about then-candidate Obama's former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, and that famous sound bite of Wright proclaiming "God damn America!" forced Obama to prove his faith credentials. Early in the GOP primary, pundit's speculated Romney's faith would become an issue to Evangelicals. A new Pew Research Center poll finds, however, that faith is not the issue of concern for most voters. Instead, the electorate is "significantly more interested in Mitt Romney's tax returns and gubernatorial record than in his beliefs." Romney attempted to shift the focus to foreign policy this week, a policy area in which Republicans have enjoyed the advantage over the last four decades. Romney criticized Obama's defense spending cuts and his response to the violence in Syria. The other day the president said that, you know, he has a vision for what's going to happen in the Middle East, but that there are going to be bumps in the road along the way…I don't consider 20- or 30,000 people dying in Syria just a bump in the road, or a Muslim brotherhood president in Egypt a bump in the road. I don't consider the killing of our diplomats in Libya a bump in the road, and I sure as heck don't consider Iran becoming nuclear a bump in the road. But it's not clear whether the attacks will work. A Gallup Poll out this week shows that Americans trust the federal government to handle international problems and the poll suggests that President Obama may benefit from his "commander in chief" role in his bid for a second term. Furthermore the Real Clear Politics Average of President Obama's foreign policy job approval hovers at 49 percent. While both Obama and Romney continue their "tough on China" talk, Obama may have the upper hand. Today, he vetoed the purchase of windfarms by a Chinese company—reminding us that incumbent presidents have an arsenal of action at their disposal to back up campaign rhetoric. Despite (or in spite of) the polls, Romney declared he will win Pennsylvania. The most recent Real Clear Politics Average has Romney trailing in the state by eight points. Together again. The Obama campaign announced that former president Bill Clinton will campaign with Obama in the next few weeks, appearing at fundraisers and rallies in California. The Big Dog will also campaign for Obama in New Hampshire. A sign of the times? Wall Street may be "planning" for another Obama Administration.
