    13

    14

    Usually the red squirrel (Sciurus Hudsonius) waked me in the dawn, coursing over the roof and up and down the sides of the house, as if sent out of the woods for this purpose.

    19

    We have sent to ask.

    20

    No, she had seen the postman drive up every day since she sent out the letter.

    21

    Cade never came to visit - a fact that sent her into a down spiraling depression.

    22

    Based on this unprecedented success, samples of Borlaug's seeds were sent abroad.

    23

    Her words sent a streak of cold through him.

    24

    When the caliph heard of this he sent for Al Farra and asked him, "Who is the most honored of men?"

    25

    His warm breath on her neck sent her heart in a flurry of wild beats.

    26

    Hearing the concern in Pete's voice sent a chill down her spine.

    27

    I was candid, omitting only the fact Julie had sent an entry to the newspaper contest.

    28

    How do you know she wished she hadn't sent it?

    29

    As if Matthew thought the encouragement was intended for him, he latched onto her breast, creating a suction that sent tiny bubbles down the feeding tube.

    A general was sent to survey the position.

    33

    His lack of response sent a painful flush into her neck.

    34

    If he had come out here to get the girl, why had he sent the dress and the flower?

    35

    It consists in punching, by means of " a puncher," a series of holes in a strip of paper in such a way that, when the strip is sent through another instrument, called the " transmitter," the holes cause the circuit to be closed at the proper times and for the proper proportionate intervals for the message to be correctly printed by the receiving instrument or recorder.

    Boss, Iggy at the lab sent me her report.

    38

    I can't believe you sent me here to babysit.

    39

    His backhand sent her world reeling.

    40

    Hence for sending both a dot and a dash, reverse currents of short duration are sent through the line, but the interval between the reversal is three times as great for the dash as for the dot.

    41

    The signals must therefore be sent at regular intervals, and to ensure this being done correctly a telephone or time-tapper is provided at each keyboard to warn the operator of the correct moment to depress his keys.

    42

    Owing to the variable illumination of the selenium thus produced, the resistance of the latter, and therefore the intensity of the current sent through the line to the receiving station by the battery, will be altered accordingly.

    43

    Mr. Gilman sent my written work to the examiners with a certificate that I, candidate No. 233, had written the papers.

    45

    She agreed it was Julie's place to tell Howie about the letter she sent and how it impacted the rest of us.

    46

    The power pushed her off balance, and she caught herself before it sent her sprawling into the blood pooled around her.

    Why had he sent her, and where the hell was he?

    49

    60

    Toby held his breath as Ully disappeared through the door to where Jared sat.  When the mad scientist wasn't sent sailing back through the door, Toby sat down to put on his shoes.

    61

    Rhyn thought of Kiki, suspecting his brother went to Kris.  He wondered who Kris sent after him to make sure he didn't follow through on his threat to confront Death.  "We only have today," he said.

    62

    The convent members who managed the Sanctuary had replaced the wall Rhyn knocked down with a row of brown tents that matched their dresses.  Rhyn eased between two of them, aware of Kiki's fading pulse.  He set his brother down on the ground and looked around wildly, hoping they hadn't sent Katie's Ancient Healer, Lankha, home to the underworld.

    63

    It was found impossible to make the Morse ink writer so sensitive that it could record signals sent over land lines of several hundred miles in length, if the speed of transmission was very much faster than that which could be effected by hand, and this led to the adoption of automatic methods of transmission.

    64

    Thus for a dot, first a negative and then a positive current is sent to the line, the effect of the current continuing during the time required for the paper to travel the space between two holes.

    65

    Kieou-he-yu (great dignitary of the state of Wei) sent a man to Khoung-tseu to know his news.

    66

    68

    Ermolov, Miloradovich, Platov, and others in proximity to the French near Vyazma could not resist their desire to cut off and break up two French corps, and by way of reporting their intention to Kutuzov they sent him a blank sheet of paper in an envelope.

    69

    So he confessed and it was all written down and the papers sent off in due form.

    70

    Once in summer he had sent for the village elder from Bogucharovo, a man who had succeeded to the post when Dron died and who was accused of dishonesty and various irregularities.

    71

    He didn't like that she was able to pull those memories free of the prison he'd sent them to.

    72

    He gathered his power and sent it toward her, wrapping it around her tightly.

    73

    Jule had never said what he'd done to piss someone off and get exiled to earth, but it must have been bad if the Watcher's kind clipped his powers and sent him packing.

    74

    I can assure you if she's found going through my portals again, she'll be sent straight to me.

    75

    But you sent him into the middle of Hell for thousands of years.

    76

    Did you … can I ask if you sent Wynn home?

    77

    He hadn't been sent to Hell yet, indicating no one had found his soul, but the thought lingered in the back of his mind.

    78

    And find his soul, before it was crushed and he was sent to Hell.

    79

    Could Lori have sent the man?

    80

    But they'll think I sent him to kill Alex.

    81

    The man was there because Lori had sent him.

    82

    He was sitting in the waiting room where they had sent him until she arrived.

    83

    His new schedule often sent him to bed early and kept him there until the last moment.

    84

    Just like every other soul collector Gabriel sent out the past week, Harmony had gone on a mission and returned empty-handed.

    85

    The demons he sent to Death's underworld failed.

    86

    The demons he sent to the mortal world failed.

    87

    There was a traitor among the fifty-odd death-dealers he had above ground, and he'd assigned twelve-hour shifts to keep an eye on the apartment where he sent Deidre.

    88

    The robed man sent what looked like a lightning bolt down the hall.

    89

    He sent you here?

    90

    Rhyn probably saved humanity by doing so but was sent to Hell and nearly lost his mind.

    91

    There was a moment of silence before the door buckled beneath a blow that sent her sprawling.

    92

    A blast of energy whipped by her, knocking her back, and the jaguar was sent flying.

    93

    She recalled what sent her outside the castle, and her anger at Kris ratcheted up another notch.

    94

    Jade had disappeared after Kris sent him away in hopes that Katie would become his mate.

    95

    He.d last seen his other trusted lieutenant, Iliana, two days ago, when he.d sent her to represent him in North America while he was away.

    96

    Mansr's calm voice sent a tremor through him.

    97

    Romas hadn't even accompanied her to the row house but sent her on a small shuttle to the local park and left her there.

    98

    It's the outfit my mom sent for Christmas.

    99

    All I can think of is perhaps she sent her clothes out to a laundry and didn't want them mixed up.

    100

    He wanted a room, but you told him the inn was full and sent him away.

    101

    He could no longer look at the two crumpled bills on the bed, the stark reminder of her fury when he'd sent her away.

    102

    He pulled the chair out to offer her, and in doing so sent it airborne, into the opposite wall, where it splintered into pieces and cracked the plaster.

    103

    Were you not sent by Victor?

    104

    Normally, he would have had a bottle of scotch and some ice sent to the room, but today there was no time.

    105

    She always sent extravagant gifts to her daughter.

    106

    He pulled a chair out and sent it flying across the room through a wall.

    107

    Within seconds, she had decapitated him and sent the disembodied head soaring across the room.

    108

    Then a few months later she had sent the first letter, saying that she had a roommate and was working on a farm.

    109

    Katie sent me in to get some cat food.

    110

    And it had been Katie who sent him that picture - to lure him up here?

    111

    When she sent me the picture, I had to come see for myself.

    112

    The thought sent a chill up her spine.

    113

    He looked down and sent images to Tim.

    114

    You sent me home, she reminded him.

    115

    Dan activated one of the buttons on his command headpiece that sent his rally orders out to the soldiers in the building.

    116

    She sent him a page through his personal net and sat down again.

    117

    She glanced up at the screen, feeling uneasy about reading messages the dead man had sent.

    118

    Prepare, read the earliest one, sent the night he called to warn her.

    119

    A backhand sent her reeling.

    120

    It was the same hospital she'd sent the Guardian to.

    121

    Sent her to half a dozen agencies on rotation.

    122

    They loaded one of the transports with the supplies and sent it towards the hard site with a security force.

    123

    He sent you to protect me.

    124

    Everything you did for me I sent to the PMF, Mr. Tim said.

    125

    Arnie found out about Greene and sent out a few messages to the Peace Command Center to warn people.

    126

    I sent in twenty helos and only one made it back.

    127

    Someone sent them south instead of north.

    128

    We've thrown a few in the prison we created and sent a few more home with these guys.

    129

    Frustrated, he sent Dan a rally call and returned to the crater.

    130

    You mean the assassin you sent to kill my mate?

    131

    No, but I don't think he's the same Rhyn we sent to Hell.  I think he deserves a chance to make things right.

    132

    Not remembering and getting sent to Hell are two different things!

    133

    Lara sent her an evil look and she shut up.

    134

    We were then sent to the guidance office so they could work up a schedule for me.

    135

    Nick Volpe had his bell rung and they sent me in for one play, 'Yellow 42.'

    136

    If the boys sent Alfred Nota looking for him, they want this guy very badly.

    137

    There's someone who had it sent to Scranton!

    138

    Dean wished he'd brought the picture of Jeffrey Byrne that World Wide had recently sent but it remained in the case file at the office.

    139

    She wouldn't normally have rented on that basis but he sent her three months payment, in cash, and she left a key in an agreed location.

    140

    Dean asked if he sent Burgess a picture of the man, if he could try and identify it.

    141

    When Dean struck out at the alarm clock, he sent it flying across the room.

    142

    I haven't heard from the Burgess fellow yet on the picture of Byrne's you sent him.

    143

    Later, after everyone had gone, Dean sent out for pizza and both men knocked off a large pie with the works and enough scotch to get silly.

    144

    Dean reluctantly explained Fred O'Connor's idea about the newspaper subscription and the fact that a paper had been sent to Scranton to a somewhat mysterious occupant.

    145

    I got that picture you sent me.

    146

    The lying bastard said you sent him.

    147

    He sent the son-of-a-bitch flying against the wall with a startled yelp.

    148

    The words sent a chill down his back like an ice cold shower.

    149

    Dean sent two dress shirts with neckties and a card of congratula­tions but did not attend the ceremony.

    150

    The subscription was being sent to the name Cleary on Bascomb Place in Scranton but it stopped arriving there after he 'died.'

    151

    His laughter sent a flood of warmth up her neck and into her face.

    152

    She started to groan with pleasure, but it came out more an eager whimper that sent a rush of heat to her face.

    153

    The way his lips lingered and the feel of his warm breath on her neck sent a thrill of excitement through her body.

    154

    Carmen sent him off with only a hug and a kiss.

    155

    It was a cool day for the end of June, and when he opened the car door, it sent a chill up her back.

    156

    I admit, I'm surprised you haven't sent me away.

    157

    It wouldn't be his world, not if he found the seemingly innocuous token his masters sent him to find.

    158

    His touch sent fire through her, and she shivered at the sensation.

    159

    His husky voice sent shivers through her body.

    160

    I sent them to Larry, Jenn replied.

    161

    His breath tickled her neck and sent shivers through her body.

    162

    Not only was an Other there, but so was Damian, the messenger he'd sent, Jonny, Jenn, and Xander.

    163

    A look at Jonny sent the Black God back quickly as well.

    164

    Jonny said he sent you after me.

    165

    Ikir sent me on assignment to spy on him.

    166

    She threw herself down to avoid the second, sent another knife in its direction to distract it, and leapt up, dancing and twisting through the lightning streams.

    167

    His eyes burned brighter, and he gave her a dark smile that sent chills through her.

    168

    His words sent a tremor of fear through her.

    169

    The scent of pure woman sent a thrill through him, and he leaned forward.

    170

    Those she sent north to our ally, Dierdirien.

    171

    He sent you here to kill me and assume my position.

    172

    Rissa had not come to him, had not sent for him.

    173

    My queen sent an urgent message to Dierdirien a few days ago.

    174

    Dierdirien sent his best warriors ahead.

    175

    Despite his foreboding, he left the chamber and sent word for Vara to meet him at the main gate.

    176

    The gates are closed, and I sent warriors after the advisors.

    177

    Cold water slowed his feet and sent shivers through him.

    178

    Dierdirien sent a messenger!

    179

    That would have sent me to the ground.

    180

    Alex had turned his attention to Carmen when she spoke, but her words sent it scurrying back to Sam.

    181

    She sent Alex her condolences.

    182

    Had her father sent him to watch over her?

    183

    Had Denton sent the man?

    184

    If Dad had sent the man, his next four weeks weren't going to be as relaxing as hers.

    185

    It was far more likely that Dad had sent him.

    186

    Maybe she should ask him if he sent the man.

    187

    If so, it had to be someone her father had sent.

    188

    No, Dad had sent him.

    189

    If Dad was going to have her followed, it was unlikely that he would have sent someone she knew.

    190

    Was he up to no good, or had Dad sent him - or maybe Denton?

    191

    Either Dad or Denton had sent him to spy on her.

    192

    If either of them had sent the man, he could be trusted, that was sure.

    193

    What if Dad hadn't sent him?

    194

    Like an angry golfer, she sent a huge divot into the air.

    195

    Of course he had been sent by Dad.

    196

    I figured I'd better call my family before they sent out a search team.

    197

    If Clara hadn't sent him, then Dad had.

    198

    Would she die here in the arms of a virtual stranger - the man her father had sent to protect her?

    199

    As a matter of fact, right now she was glad Dad had sent him.

    200

    She could have made it without the help of Denton, Dad, or the man he had sent.

    201

    Under different circumstances she would be openly encouraging his attention - the circumstances being, if Dad hadn't sent him.

    202

    If there had been a shred of doubt in her mind about who had sent him, it would have been erased with that term for a mountain lion.

    203

    He took her hands and pulled her close, gazing down at her with an expression that sent her heart pounding.

    204

    If Dad hadn't sent him, then who was he?

    205

    Until you came along, I thought he was someone Dad sent to keep an eye on me.

    206

    If she hadn't been so certain that her father had sent him, things might have been different.

    207

    If she had simply confronted him and told him she knew Dad sent him, everything would have been brought into the open then.

    208

    His mother spoke of a rich woman often, one who sent her on errands when his mother was not wanted at the whorehouse where she made what living was afforded a poor woman beyond the marriage age.

    209
