England wasn't always the smoothest with women; usually he said something unnecessary or boring and the girl simply walked off. He was always trying his luck by being himself, but he just couldn't seem to get the women to notice him, even the girl he really wanted to get noticed by, _____. She was like an angel in his eyes, always polite and respectful towards him, unlike most people. And she always had a gorgeous smile on her soft lips, a smile that could warm any heart; his heart had already experienced the sensation.
A deep sigh passed his lips as he pressed his palms to his forehead in thought and anger, elbows resting against his office desk. "Why can't I have that attractiveness like frog face?" he groaned, slumping in his chair as he moped. "He always gets the ladies, no matter where he goes or w
Heat Waves *EnglandxReader*"Arthur," you mumbled through your pillow. "I hate this vacation. I hate it so much."Heat Waves *EnglandxReader*3 years ago in Romance More Like This
You were in your room, in your cool, air conditioned house. You were on your bed, wearing a pair of (f/c) shorts and your favorite tank top. You were currently curled up on your bed, hugging your pillow against your face. Your best friend, Arthur Kirkland, gentleman, Briton, bad cook, was in your room with you, sitting on the desk chair next to your desk and trying to comfort you.
Because not only had this been a boring vacation so far, with you being in your house almost twenty-four-seven, and all your friends (even Arthur for a bit) going to various places (half of them went out of the country, for the love of cornflakes!), but you had made a mistake. A fatal mistake. You had watched a romantic movie marathon.
You had a difficult time doing almost anything with guys, but you were a romantic at heart. You wanted to be swept off your feet one day by a handsome man.
And for quite some time now, this ha

Wind whipped (Name)'s sun-kissed face, tousling her tangled (h/c) locks. Her flag, torn and faded, rippled in the gentle wind, and the boat rocked from side to side as the old wood creaked in protest.
She closed her eyes, leaning against the deck railing and breathing in the ocean breeze. It was a calm day, and (Name) could hear seagulls flying in the sky above her.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind pulled her out of her moment of peace, and she grabbed onto her hat in fear it would fly away. One of her crew members approached her quickly, pointing to the horizon.
"C-cap'n, a ship be approaching!" (Name)'s eyes narrowed, and pulling out her spyglass, she saw that there was indeed another ship traveling straight toward them. After close inspection, she gasped; it was him! The notorious pirate, Arthur Kirkland!
Her expression turned into one of excitement. 'Challenge accepted,' she thought, smugly. (Name) placed a hand on her cutlass, pulled down her hat, then turned to alert the crew.
[ Neko!England ] Backfired [ Reader ]You had been attempting to enjoy a quiet night, curled up on the couch with a book you'd just recently bought and a nice cup of tea. Just as you took a seat on the couch in the living room and opened your book, a light rain began to patter on the window, making everything seem calm. Then, you felt your cellphone vibrate in your pocket. Pulling it out, you groaned once you read the number. It was Alfred F. Jones, better known as America. You really didn't want to deal with his idiocy…and why on earth would he be texting you close to bloody midnight?! Oh, there you went again. You sighed and shook your head.

The apocalypse must be coming. That was the only explanation you could think of for this...this travesty. On the one hand it was rather nice for you and made you feel loved and needed, but on the other hand it was an occurrence that was abnormal anywhere besides your dreams.
At the world meeting for all to see, England, the infamously tsundere ball of mood swings, was holding your hand on the table. It doesn't really seem like much, but it is England we're talking about. The show of affection was in plain sight! But that wasn't all - he was
sitting againstsnuggling into your right side. No space was left between you two, and the chairs would have to merge for you to be any closer.
The weirdest thing, though, was that all he could do was softly smile. He wasn't ashamed nor was he embarrassed by it. Normally he would become red enough to trick Spain's Romano radar.

He returned the bright yellow ball with ease, and you scrambled to reach the far corner of the court where it landed. Using a backhand, you managed to hit it back- but unfortunately, your aim was quite off and the ball landed several feet out of the alley.England x Reader: Tennis3 years ago in Romance More Like This
You set down your racket to mop sweat off of your forehead. When your school tennis coach had said a little bit of one-on-one training time might be in order, you had no idea she meant a private lesson with this cute, older, undeniably BRITISH boy you barely knew!
Of course, the fact that you barely knew him certainly didn't stop you from crushing on him. After all, who wouldn't? He was smart, charming, polite, and all-around adorable; even his bushier-than-average eyebrows. His dazzling green eyes and cutely mussed blond hair, combined with his dreamy accent, made you want to melt!
So of course you didn't want to make a hot, sweaty fool out of yo

No meetings, no childish fights with your Allies, no earth shattering migranes. Just silence, the morning newspaper, and a bowl of lucky charms.
Smiling, you took a sip of coffee. Oh yes, Sundays truely were the best day of the week. Nothing but golden silence echoed through the kitchen, and that was just how you liked it. That silence was soon broken, however, when your front door was violently thrown open and England stumbled into the kitchen.
You set down the newspaper and examined the Brit; judging by his flushed face and the way he kept swaying back and forth, you came to the conclusion that he was drunk on his ass. Why anyone would want to drink this early in the morning, you didn't really know; I mean, beer didn't exactly pair well with cereal.
Not that you really cared, of course.
"England, go home, you're drunk." You stated cooly, turning back to your cereal.
He ignored you and stumbled over to your chair, resting a

"Well, we just thought it would be cool if you ran a kissing booth," you looked at Arthur with puppy dog eyes.
"What?! A Kissing booth?! Have you guys gone completely bonkers?" he replied, a big blush spreading across his face.
At that, you and Alfie looked at each other and then burst out laughing.
"What? You gits, why are you bloody laughing for, I'm not going to kiss anyone--" he started off, indignantly.
"Haahhh- hayou are an idiot, Arthur!" Alfie laughed, almost out of breath.

"Nghh..." Arthur groaned. He barely shifted his position and hugged you.
"Wake up Arthur..." you said a little louder and shook him a little harder.
"...It's too early." he groaned into your stomach.
"...It's 10 am, it isn't that early..." You purred. "And you said we'd go shopping..."

Then, why did Arthur get so upset when he saw how close Alfred was to you?England x Reader - Spellbound [APH]3 years ago in Romance More Like This
"Yo [Name]! What's up?" Alfred asked in his usual loud voice, taking a bite from his hamburger that he held in his other hand.
"The sky," you lamely joked as a smile graced your lips. You thought that the reply was super lame, but Alfred laughed nevertheless.
"You busy today?" Alfred asked you curiously. "We could hang out!"
Arthur crossed his arms over his chest and frowned. You promised Arthur that you would spend some time with him that day, and you intended to keep it. Of course, the English man knew that you would keep your promiseyou always did, but even so, he still couldn't help but get upset with Alfred.

"Good morning Miss (Name), I'm sorry to bother you but I was wondering if you could do me a favor," replied the Brit.
"Oh, but of course! Whatever can I help you with, my good sir?" You joked, using your shoulder to hold up the small electronic as you moved about in your kitchen putting groceries away.
"Could you watch Alfred for me while I'm gone?" Your face lit up at the thought- Alfred was like a son to you, and you loved him like family. Besides, a chance to see Arthur before he left for whatever business he had? How could you miss up on that, considering your (hopefully not obvious) feelings for the green-eyed man.
"Did you even need to ask me? I'll be over there in 20 minutes. Seeya then Kirkland!" And with that, you put away your phone, pulled on your shoes and (f/c) jacket, and set out for England's house.

"It was my pleasure," Arthur responded warmly. "After all," he added, looking at you with a smile in his emerald eyes,"it was only what any proper gentleman would do."
You smiled back at him shyly, but your heart was fluttering inside your chest. Others would call Arthur Kirkland "cold", "cynical", and "snide", but even from the relatively short time you had known him, you knew that under the surface, he could be as sweet and gentle as any other man. You harbored hopes inside of you, small but bright, that he would some day return your affection for him. But sometimes, you wondered if he ever would look at you romantically after your strong friendship.
As it almost always was, rain was pouring down from the skies above England. As you opened the car door to make a hasty escape to the shelter of your porch, Arthur reached out to touch your shoulder. "Allow me, my lady." Opening his

Another heavy sigh, then Arthur pulled you down next to him on the couch.
"You do know that sometimes it's really, really hard to understand what you're talking about, do you, love?". He had already relaxed his brows, but he was certainly still puzzled on what you said earlier.
It was true; you had a bad habit of saying the first thing that came to your mind when you were around Arthur. Even though the idea had been bugging you for several days

It sounded a bit funny.
But what did it mean?
These were the thoughts that filled your mind as you continued on your stroll around the park near your house. Earlier, Francis had come up to you and told you to ask Arthur to snog you...
When you had asked what the word 'snog' meant, he merely did that funny 'Ohonhonhon~' laugh of his, his perverted smirk growing a bit wider. He then said, 'Arthur will show you soon, ma cherie!' before walking away, leaving you confused.
You had considered looking it up, but being the lazy person you were you decided not to. Snog couldn't be a bad thing, could it?
...Well, maybe it could, considering how Francis had told you to ask Arthur to snog you. And, well... Francis is a big fat pervert. Snog could very well mean sex if it came from Francis. And you didn't plan to lose your virginity just yet.
Well actually, losing your virginity to Arthur wouldn't

It was a different experience for Arthur, being in the thick of the crowd. When Alfred or Francis even managed to get him into a place like this he usually stuck to the outskirts of the dance floor, he preferred his space out there.

Brewing a 10-gallon batch of Rough & Reddy Ale today. Not sure if we'll have this one kegged up by the Meet-Brew-Share. If we do, it'll be a little "green" still. Anyhow this is where we'll be on the 19th, hope you guys can join us
Looks like fun! I wish I was brewing today. I have an empty 6.5g carboy!
I am planning on brewing a pale tomorrow, it will be green, but may be ready. My cider will be ready for sure. I am in.
This sounds fun, I have plans that day. It would be fun to share some beers.
Thanks everyone who showed an interest in this. Unfortunately there was only one person who actually said he could make it so I cancelled it. Maybe with it being MLK weekend most folks had other plans. Thanks to Biohazard for saying he'd show up. Maybe we can still meet up sometime and share some brews.
I hope someone else will try this again sometime. I'd really like to participate if someone else tries to put something together.
Any updates?
"Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"
I'm not sure what you're looking for in the way of an update. As I posted above this was cancelled at the last minute from lack of participation.

Zero Tolerance
Zero-tolerance and one-size-fits all policies like the ones were talking about are just Zero-Thought Policies, where management directs and the lower level enforces, without regard to common sense. This flies in the face of any sense of liberty and individualism, so naturally we'd see a bunch of folks bristling about it on Daily Paul.
Its interesting that central decision-making yields the same results as central corporate planning or central economic planning; specifically senseless and inferior results.
Maybe rather than call them stupid, the better approach would be to ask them, "Are you really going to let someone else think for you?" It might wake up their inner rebel.

Coreopsis Moonbeam vs Zagreb
I know I might open a can a worms here because I've heard quite opposite opinions about like or dislike of the colors of those two, but I DON'T CARE about color, I need your opinion on ease to grow and maintanance of one vs another.
They'll go in a front of the very long border (as edging plants) as a filler inbetween clumps of nepeta Walker Low and will receive sun from 7am till 1pm with not excessive, but ample water supply. Soil is somewhat loose, ammended, but not very rich clay. Mulched all year around.
Which one of them will be lowest maintanance and less picky plant?
Oh, one more question, while on a coreopsis subject, is C.grandiflora present interest to deers?
Thank you.
That's quite OK, it's been a little quiet here.
First, the color of Zagreb is a bit harsh to my eye, but I have the plants in my garden.
Zagreb beats Moonbeam hands down in my mild summer, wet winter beds. I'm growing both, Zagreb is rough and rugged in every sense - spread, fullness, repeat bloom, lower water requirements in my dry Aug/Sept. If it matters, Moonbeam is taller - but not as long lived for me ;)
This is my first year growing both in similar conditions to what you describe...although they get sun for most of the day.
I'd have to agree, the Zagreb are way more robust. I like the moonbeam too, but haven't made up my mind about them yet. They are splaying out at the base, whereas the zagreb are bushy, full, and look very happy. The Zagreb are definitely lower maintenance and don't seem to care if they never get water, whereas the moonbeam seem to dry out more easily.
Hope that helps!

each and every update I am running in the same problem, getting the WIFI to stop working with my companies Cisco LEAP.
Today I updated to Stock XLS8 JB 4.1.2 and WIFI is returning an authentication error.
I recreated the LEAP profile using the Leap Wifi Free app.
Last time I needed to patch the wpa_supplicant binary to get it working.
I also found some threads and also android bugs pointing to it (but this states it should work in 4.1.2 but not on 4.2: android issue #40023).
Do you have the same problems? Do you have a solution?

Which was posted electronically on June 18. Among the minimum specifications for both organs was a requirement for "internal speakers. Each organ was priced at $19. Tellier's Quotation stated: The 814 Leslie is designed as a surround sound. Extra speakers are not needed for this application. The divided expression pedal is not necessary. (These are all adjustable while playing in real time.). The only other vendor to submit a quotation was Wolf Gang Music. Wolf Gang's price for the Biloxi organ was $25. Its price for the Gulfport organ was $19.

I have terrible problems with deer(they eat my holly and my liriope!)
I don't mind height. I had a design that included lilacs but unsure. Was thinking viburnums.
This area is a SW exposure, with full day sun after 11am.

Sounds like it would be worth your while to put up at deer fence.
A wall like that, especially in z10, says interesting climbers to me, not standard common shrubs like Viburnums and Lilacs. You could grow some amazing things against that wall and have them peeking over the railings at the top and wafting exotic scents into your house.
One of the good things about Viburnums is that they don't demand much care. The birds love them. There are different varieties, some taller than others. It might look good to have a few, getting smaller as you move to the shorter parts of the wall.
Drawback? Suckers! You can deal with them in the spring, or them them happen.
Put five out there (I like odd numbers), along with some climbing something.
Go to your local garden center, show them a picture and ask for advice. They will have plants appropriate to your area and they should replace anything that doesn't make it through the first year. That's easier than dealing with catalog people.
What about making an espalier of some kind--figs, pomegranates, pyracantha?. I have read that deer do not eat fig leaves (assume they would eat the fruit until too tall). Was going to suggest climbing hydrangea, then remembered deer LOVE them to death. (Also have big deer numbers, but really is possible to plant things they will not eat--especially in milder zones where they can eat other evergreens). Also, do you really want to cover up the wall completely? And do you prefer it to be evergreen? Personally, I think it's a nice wall and would not plant to cover it up entirely--still, you do have lots of options.
what zone are you????
VA is kinda big and diverse
hiding that gorgeous wall... seems wrong ... i would go with thin uprights.. to echo the battlements.. and leave the vast majority as eye candy ... no higher that half way on lower shrubs ...
i was thinking along the lines of Thuja occ de groots sprire.. for the upright ...
or are you ruling out conifers????? ... and just asking about flowering shrubs .... conifer suggestions might come in that forum ...
ps: what about those thin maples... and thin beeches??? ... in yellow and purple no less.... dawyck or something or another.. but those are trees....
I think any good landscaper would be asking you a barrage of follow-up questions.
Where are you located? What zone actually? You might have a really good microclimate to work with.
What is your intent for planting the front of the wall -- to hide it? or just to soften it? ...to ease the transition from lawn to building.
Do you like a more formal / traditional look (read lots of pruning)?
Or more casual?
How high do you want it to be?
Do you want it to be solid green? Or with floral interest? Evergreen or deciduous?
Vines could ruin brick and also require lots of maintenance.
Are you willing to do maintenance like pruning on a regular basis (like several times / year? Or do you have a hired gardener? or prefer something low-maintenance?
Are you willing to water it? What about underplanting?
Is this back yard or front yard?
How much space is there between the wall and what looks like a garage door?
I'd maybe consider using an upright conical plant in front of each 'column' and some lower hedging material bridging everything together. Or conversely, something tall in each brick 'panel'. I'd definitely consider broad-leafed evergreens or maybe include conifers. You want something that looks good 365 days/yr.
Once we can determine your intent and parameters, then we can move into plant selection.

Dave in nova,
Thank you for the reply! I too am in northern va,(is that zone 6?), near Fairfax station. This is the back side of the house with un "extra" garage. I have since planted crepe myrtles above the wall and carpet roses (yuck, mistake number one) with shasta daisy's(mistake number 2).
My plan was to include lilacs near the "Piers" and carpet roses in between (since reconsidered to avoid mistake number 3) I was looking at a frost proof gardenia but iffy in this area, and scared to take a chance!
The mulch bed is about 4 feet but really since nothing planted there I can make it want I want. There is only a foot between door and garage but no planting area there(picture does not show that well) I would plant about where the first tallest pier in the wall is located. The wall is 15 feet ish tall.
The deer are so bad here. I like to look at my landscape, as this area is viewable by the sun room window. I was not sure about boxwood's, I enjoy flowers and this is a great sunny spot! Just don't love azaleas!
What about lena scotch broom? I do like the idea of the taller item in the center of the wall between piers. I also was thinking of making this a visual site by attaching criss cross wire (think tic tac toe tilted) and growing a clematis. I would appreciate all of your ideas.
Are you in business locally? I had a landscape architect come out and it was comical how many plants he wanted to add to my landscape! It would have looked like poo several seasons later. Then I went with a merrifield plan but it isn't right either though We have only done the front of the home.
I wiill care for my landscape, I love doing it. To answer you question.. don't really like a plant that drops its leaves in winter...I have too many that do and then the deer eat the newly sprouted plants in spring before I can get to them!

"Enjoyable Listen! Thought Provoking"
The Book is broken into 3 sections, the first two sections are exceptional. The Author establishes the case for breaking from the pack by showing you how commoditized industries are getting and how key players are differentiating themselves in various ways. This Audio book is a nice compliment to "The World is flat", since several of the issues covered in detail in the world is flat are touched upon in this book.
My only complaint is section 3 which was good, but short. I wished it had a lot more examples. The other 2 sections spend a lot of time referring to section 3 with solutions to the challenges posed earlier. In Fairness he does cover solutions throughout the book with real business examples, but I just thought there would be more in section 3.
"Poor Production Quaity"
I really liked the narrator, and will buy other stuff narrated by them. The Story is very good (except I didn't care for the ending -- it was too short). My big gripe is production quality. There are varying audio levels all throughout the book. Like they just didn't try to match audio (annoying but not the end of the world), but the biggest thing for me is that when the narrator stopped and started again, he would re-read the last sentence - so the audio engineer could splice the pieces together. Unfortunately, they did no splicing, so there is this annoying repeat of the last sentence when the narrator starts a new segment. This Coupled wt the audio issues, are a key reason I gave it 2 stars. This is one of the poorest books audio wise that I have bought. I listen to this on an mp3 player (quality level 4) with headphones, so the quality issues are very apparent.

Offensive Struggles Weighing On Phillies
I thought Jimmy Rollins had a telling comment following last night's 7-1 loss to the Rockies.
"Everybody knows what's going on," he said. "We're struggling to score runs. We're not getting a lot of hits. It's kind of weighing on everybody."
The Phillies have lost five of six games. They have not scored more than three runs in a game since last Friday. They have not had more than six hits in a game since last Friday. Charlie Manuel is beyond frustrated. He has four spots in his lineup that rank in the bottom half of baseball in production: catcher (26th in baseball with a .578 OPS), second base (25th with a .574 OPS), left field (17th with a .674 OPS) and right field (25th with a .693 OPS). Those are the 5, 6, 7 and 8 spots in the lineup. Combine them with Phillies pitchers and it has been nearly impossible to get rallies going once Ryan Howard hits.
But now figure in Shane Victorino's trip to the DL, Placido Polanco cooling off (he's hitting .230 in May), Rollins cooling off (he's hitting .184 in his last nine games) and Howard's 0-for-20 slump and it's even worse. Nobody is hitting, and there is no immediate solution. They simply have to hope the top of the order gets back on track, Chase Utley returns next week, Domonic Brown continues to hit to force a promotion and the 5, 6, 7, 8 hitters improve just enough to allow the Phillies some chances at extended rallies.
"We are still in first place, and that's the mentality you have to have," Rollins said. "That after all this, this bad stretch of injuries, we still have a chance to hold on and push some games up."
The Phillies have the best record in the National League, but to stay there they have to start hitting. No pressure.

Four Is the Magic Number
The Phillies have scored three or fewer runs in 21 of their 40 games this season, but what does that mean exactly?
Consider this:
- National League teams that score four or more runs in a game are 260-99 (.724).
- The Phillies are 17-2 (.895) when they score four or more runs, which is the best record in the league.
- National League teams that score three or fewer runs are 66-225 (.227).
- The Phillies, Pirates, Padres and Dodgers are the only four teams in the league to score three or fewer runs in the majority of their games. The Pirates (18-23), Padres (18-23) and Dodgers (19-23) have losing records.
The Phillies should thank their lucky stars for their pitching. They are 8-13 (.381) when they score three or fewer runs. An 8-13 record actually is pretty impressive, considering the league has a .227 winning percentage in those games. Only two teams have better records when the offense doesn't show up. The Giants are 9-13 (.409) and the Cardinals are 6-9 (.400).
The Phillies have the best record in the National League, but this is not a way to live. This is putting a lot of strain on the pitching staff, and it could spell disaster (i.e. a repeat of the 2010 NLCS) in the postseason. The Phillies need the offense to step up. They are counting on Chase Utley to help. He certainly should help, if he is healthy and can stay healthy, but that remains to be seen. If the Phillies do not get more production from their corner outfielders I think Domonic Brown has to come up sooner rather than later, if he continues to hit Triple-A pitching. In the meantime, it wouldn't hurt Charlie Manuel to play John Mayberry Jr. a little more, even against right-handed pitchers. I'm not saying Mayberry is a savior. He hasn't proven he can hit right-handed pitching consistently, but with Ben Francisco struggling (his RBI last night was his first since April 29) it wouldn't hurt to throw him in there once a week, would it?
Four runs.
Four runs and the Phillies are pratically unbeatable. They've got to find a way to make it happen.

Scoring Is Down, But Manuel Doesn't Want to Hear It
The Phillies need Chase Utley and Carlos Ruiz back in their lineup soon.
Ruiz is expected to be back this weekend in Atlanta. Utley could be back next week.
Entering tonight's game against the Marlins, Phillies second basemen ranked last in the National League with a .557 on-base-plus-slugging percentage. Phillies catchers ranked last with a .574 OPS. (Ruiz was hitless in 21 at-bats before he landed on the DL, but he hit .302 with a .400 on-base percentage last season.)
To put that in perspective, Houston Astros pitchers entered the night with a .593 OPS.
"We need our lineup to get better," Charlie Manuel said.
The Phillies rank fifth or better in OPS at first base (fifth at .864), third base (second at .826), shortstop (fourth at .749) and center field (third at .837). Pitchers rank eighth (.358), rightfielders rank ninth (.744) and leftfielders rank 13th (.694).
The Phillies have had very little happening offensively once Ryan Howard hits, although Raul Ibanez is picking up. He is hitting .467 (14-for-30) with four doubles, two home runs and five RBIs in his last eight games.
"We don't have the offense we used to have," Manuel said. "We don't have the depth in our offense right now. We get Utley back that's definitely going to help us some. But we do not have the offense we had. I've told you about the guys with the high on-base percentages. We used to lead the league in base runners, but we also used to lead the league in runs scored."
Manuel has heard in meetings and elsewhere that scoring is down everywhere.
Yeah, so?
"That don't mean we have to have that damn problem," Manuel said. "I say that in meetings all the time. That's like saying if somebody jumps off a bridge you're going to jump off with them. The hell with that. Really. That's kind of how I look at that. I want us to be the best team in baseball. I want to put the best players on the field. I want the best hitting, the best pitching, the best defense."

Cold Bats Are Everywhere
It sure felt like the Phillies struggled offensively in April.
At least they weren't alone. Elias Sports Bureau said overall batting average (.251) and average runs per game (8.6) were the lowest in Major League Baseball through the end of April in 19 seasons. Offense hasn't been this bad since 1992, when teams hit a combined .249 and averaged 8.2 runs per game.
The Phillies finished April hitting .261 and averaging 4.62 runs per game. It's the lowest they've hit in April since 2008, when they hit .258. (Yes, that's not that long ago.) It's their fewest runs per game through April since 2006, when they averaged 4.50 runs per game. The Phillies' .718 OPS through April is their lowest since 2005, when it was .698.
You would think those numbers put them at the bottom of the National League, but they don't. The Phillies rank seventh in batting average, fifth in runs per game and sixth in OPS. The Phillies need to be much better than they have been, but it's worse elsewhere. Of course, that's no consolation for Charlie Manuel. He wants more consistency from his offense. I'm not sure he wants to stomach another 14-game streak of scoring four or fewer runs, which he suffered through last month.
It would help if Chase Utley returns before the end of the month, but we'll see.
Elias also notes Roy Halladay has won each of his last seven starts against the Mets. Only four active pitchers have won their last seven (or more) starts against one team: Halladay also has an eight-game streak against Washington; Derek Lowe has won 10-straight starts against Pittsburgh; Livan Hernandez has won eight-straight games against Washington; and Bronson Arroyo has won seven-straight games against Houston.
"You don't want to send a negative message when you're winning, but at the same time I think our guys know what they're capable of hitting. I have an old saying that if you're not hitting .300, you need help." – Charlie Manuel
The Phillies need a lot of help.
They were shut out for the second time this season in last night's 4-0 loss to the Diamondbacks. Arizona took an early lead and I thought to myself, "I just don't see them coming back to win this game."
It was the third inning. Against Arizona. With Cliff Lee on the mound.
The Phillies have not scored five runs in a game since April 9, when they scored 10 against the Braves at Turner Field. That is 14 consecutive games scoring four or fewer runs.
No team in baseball has scored fewer runs since April 9. The Phillies are averaging 2.79 runs per game, which ranks 28th in baseball. Only the Padres (2.69 runs per game) and White Sox (2.67 runs per game) have averaged fewer, which is hardly comforting. The Padres might have the worst lineup I've seen since I started covering baseball. Nobody in the Padres lineup scares you. The Phillies' lineup has five former All-Stars, even without Chase Utley.
Only the White Sox (.197/.263) have a worse batting average than the Phillies (.200/.269) since April 9.
Nobody has a worse slugging percentage (.292) or OPS (.561).
But here's the thing: there are no quick fixes, no obvious solutions. The Phillies could play John Mayberry Jr. more in left field while Raul Ibanez struggles. Manuel said in Spring Training he could play Ross Gload more. Gload has started once. Manuel has defensive concerns about Gload, but maybe it's time to sacrifice defense for offense. Pete Orr has had some good at-bats at second base. Manuel could try playing him more, but Mayberry, Gload and Orr are not a magic pill for the offense.
What about changing the lineup? Fans have said Manuel needs to move Jimmy Rollins from the third spot because he has just two RBIs. OK, who hits third? Placido Polanco? OK, now what? Not a lot of options, is there? I'm not saying a lineup change is a bad idea. In fact, I'd give it a shot. But there are no moves smacking you in the face. If Ibanez weren't in a 0-for-21 slump I would say he should hit third. He hit very well there last season, but he's not hitting well now. Can't do that. Does Rollins hit leadoff if he's not hitting third? Second? Fifth? Seems like shuffling deck chairs.
What about a trade? The Phillies are over budget and close to the luxury tax threshold. They would have to shed salary to take on salary, and what team trades a stud bat in April? Nobody. If anything would happen it would happen much closer to the trade deadline. And even then I'm not sure a trade would happen.
The best solution seems to be the most obvious one, and the one that might take the longest time: Utley returns before the end of May and the rest of the offense figures out things on their own. In the meantime, they better hope the pitching continues to dominate.
Manuel is fired up about suggestions he overused Jose Contreras.

The Funk 2011
The Phillies have won 7 of their last 11 games, despite not scoring more than four runs in any of those games.
Thank goodness for the rotation.
The offense has scored just 32 runs (2.9 runs per game) since they scored 10 runs in Atlanta on April 9. They have hit just .203 with a .278 on-base percentage and a .296 slugging percentage in that span. They have eight doubles, one triple, eight home runs and 29 RBIs. They have walked 37 times and struck out 66 times.
It could be worse. The Phillies went 12 consecutive games last season without scoring more than three runs in a game. Remember that one? It is impossible to forget. In a horrific stretch May 22 – June 4, the Phillies got shut out five times and scored just 17 runs (1.4 runs per game). They hit just .197 with a .277 on-base percentage and a .274 slugging percentage. They walked 38 times and struck out 88 times.
They went 3-9.
Here are some more numbers from this 11-game stretch and the 12-game stretch last season.

It's Lee or Losing Streak
The Phillies put their "Four Aces" theory to the test this afternoon — the theory being they won't have many losing streaks — when Cliff Lee pitches against the Brewers. The Phillies must beat the Brewers today to avoid a sweep and a three-game losing streak.
Of course, it would make life easier on Lee with a little run support.
A few notes:
- The Phillies have scored 23 runs from April 10-19, which ranks last in the National League. They have hit .204 with a .269 on-base percentage and a .270 slugging percentage. Each of those marks ranks last in the league.
- They also have just 10 extra-base hits, which are the fewest in the league.
- Elias Sports Bureau says: The 9-0 loss tied the largest margin of defeat in a Roy Halladay start in 11 seasons. The Blue Jays lost to the Rangers, 11-2, on July 16, 2004. The only larger margin of defeat came April 15, 2000, when the Mariners beat the Blue Jays, 17-6.

Cooler Weather, Cooler Bats
Charlie Manuel likes the summer because the summer is hot and hot weather is hitting weather.
The Phillies have played in mostly cool temperatures in the past week. Maybe that explains why they have hit just .226/.285/.313 in their past six games, averaging 3.3 runs per game. They hit .344/.392/.497 in their first eight games, averaging 7.0 runs per game. You knew the Phillies' offense wouldn't keep up the pace it set the first week of the season, but Manuel certainly hopes the last six games aren't more indicative of the way it will play this season.
But just like the offense has leveled off, so has the pitching staff. Phillies starters were 4-2 with a 5.53 ERA in their first eight games, but are 3-1 with a 2.25 ERA in their last six. The relievers were 2-0 with a 1.57 ERA in their first eight games, but are 1-1 with a 4.00 ERA in their last six.
Chase Utley continued his running drills before the game. Not that I'm counting, but when he ran last week in DC, he ran twice around the outside of the infield. He took three trips around the infield today. I guess that's progress?

Week One A Good One
– The Phillies are second in the National League in scoring with 43 runs. The Reds lead with 45. Third place? The Mets with 31.
– The Phillies lead the league in batting (.353) and on-base percentage (.407).
– They are second in slugging percentage (.498).
- Ryan Howard, Placido Polanco, Scott Rolen and Neil Walker are tied for the league lead with eight RBIs.
– Howard (.480) is second, Polanco (.440) is fourth, Wilson Valdez (.429) is sixth and Jimmy Rollins (.375) is 12th in batting.
Is this a sign of things to come or just a hot week? We'll find out, but I think Phillies fans would agree this is better than the alternative (the Cardinals have scored just 15 runs in their first six games).
Roy Halladay looks like he's in midseason form … Should be a good test for the Phillies this weekend in Atlanta … More from Atlanta later …

Hit the Ball Hard, Good Things Will Happen
Ben Francisco hit a rocket to left field in the first inning last night at Citizens Bank Park.
Francisco spiked his bat into the ground and tossed his helmet to the side.
"Seriously?" he had to be thinking. "Really?"
He had hit three bullets to left field in three consecutive at-bats, and all three had been caught. Strong winds killed two balls that would have been home runs in his final two at-bats in Tuesday's 7-1 loss to the Mets. But Francisco finally caught a break last night, when he crushed another ball to left field for a solo home run — the final run — in the Phillies' 10-7 victory. Francisco is hitting .333 (7 for 21) with one double, two home runs and five RBIs in his first five games.
Ryan Howard continues to swing a hot bat. He went 4 for 4 with two doubles, one home run, two RBIs and one walk. He is hitting .524 (11 for 21) with three doubles, two homers and eight RBIs. Much of the rest of the lineup is hitting well, too: Raul Ibanez (.300), Placido Polanco (.450), Jimmy Rollins (.368) and Wilson Valdez (.294). The only guys really struggling are Carlos Ruiz (.154) and Shane Victorino (.222), although Victorino had a couple big hits last night.
It's just five games, but it's encouraging for Charlie Manuel nonetheless. If the Phillies can win today's series finale against the Mets, they will be 5-1 entering a weekend series against Atlanta. That will be a great early test for them.

While emotions ran the gamut from dissatisfaction to bittersweet nostalgia to all-out rage, there was emphatically no middle ground. Tuesday morning, if you didn't have a strong opinion on the HIMYM finale, you were out in the cold.

To paraphrase Ted and Robin: "Major Warning!" This story contains spoilers about tonight's final episode of How I Met Your Mother.
Back in 2005 as How I Met Your Mother debuted, I wrote that it was the Lost of sitcoms – a group of people searching for love and identity while marooned on an island. (Have you ever tried to escape Manhattan during rush hour?) There was plenty of time travel, too. And like Lost, the CBS sitcom bowed out controversially, but as many fans predicted.

"And that, kids, is how I met your mother."
With that line, How I Met Your Mother came to an end on Monday with an hour-long episode that finally wrapped up the story Ted (Josh Radnor) has been telling for nine seasons. While fans have known all along that Ted would meet The Mother (Cristin Milioti) at a train station platform in fictional Farhampton, Long Island, the show's final episode revealed several new twists in the story of the gang: Marshall (Jason Segel), Lily (Alyson Hannigan), Barney (Neil Patrick Harris) and Robin (Cobie Smulders).
Below, we recap the finale's best moments in quotes. Warning: There are a few spoilers!
All of Ted's Girlfriends on How I Met Your Mother, Ranked
Originally posted 03/31/2014 10:00AM
Ted Mosby has dated a lot of women on How I Met Your Mother. We wouldn't call him a "slut" exactly, nor would we describe his dates as "random skanks," but the architect has certainly had more than his fair share of Mrs. Right Nows along his journey to find Mrs. Right. Some of them were guest stars, some of them were series regulars, and some of them didn't even have names (sorry, Blah Blah – we mean, Carol). But rich or poor, blonde or brunette, one thing united them: They all fell under Mosby's strange spell.
And now is the time, in the grand tradition of nuts and pies, to rank them.

With a handful of episodes left before the cast of How I Met Your Mother go their separate ways, Neil Patrick Harris acknowledges that it's a bittersweet time.
"We're saying the word 'last' a lot more than we ever did," he told PEOPLE on Wednesday during a Television Critics Association set visit. "We knew that it was going to come to an end, but we never really talked about the end, so this season has been filled with a lot of us saying, 'Oh.' "
As Harris and his castmates Cobie Smulders, Josh Radnor, Jason Segel and Alyson Hannigan fielded questions from reporters, both of the actresses said, "You guys really want us to cry."

Would love to share some paddle cactus with you. It is blooming big beautiful blossoms. I can send photo and look up propagation instructions for you.??? I have plenty to experiment. I plucked a few cactus hairs out of my mares nose the other day! Guess she got too close, it shouldn't be in the pasture. I only keep it as one day I want to make cactus jelly!
Middle GA I am so eager to try the angel trumpet vine? Or shrub? Can I make it do what I want? I guess it has to be on wheels to store inside for the winter?
