Taking in A Sentence

    1

    A clerk at World Wide thought he was taking some time off before settling in out there.

    2

    Aaron told me he was taking him to the doctor because he had a broken nose.

    3

    According to the Sentinel you guys have a good shot at taking it all.

    4

    Across the street, she imagined the man with the rockets taking careful aim at her.

    5

    After counting to ten and taking two deep breaths, she lifted her head and met his troubled gaze.

    6

    All her emotional and physical efforts were directed toward helping him recover and taking care of things at home.

    7

    All the right angles she abhorred weren't taking the edge off of him this night.

    8

    And Lydia's taking a sick day—woman stuff, I guess.

    9

    And this is for taking Kris from me!

    10

    And this is how I know you're not taking care of yourself as much as you should be.

    11

    And we both know if Shipton is a beater, chances are good she'll just keep on taking it, until he kills her or gets what he wants.

    12

    And we'll start by taking out one of their leaders.

    13

    Another shorter valley began near the present Jaffa gate and, taking an easterly direction, joined the Tyropoeon; while a third ravine passed across what is now the northern part of the Haram enclosure and fell into the valley of the Kidron.

    14

    Anyway, I don't want anyone taking over the decision making for me.

    15

    Are we still good?  You taking me with you?

    16

    Are you taking me back?

    17

    As May gave way to June, the lengthening daylight hours gave her more time to be with Jonathan and Destiny and still complete taking care of the animals before darkness.

    18

    As she glanced up, Morino and Alex started down the stairs, the tall lanky foreman taking two at a time.

    19

    At Brisbane the rainfall is about 50 in., taking an average of forty years.

    20

    At least we're taking some action, and we're doing it together—that makes me feel more secure.

    21

    At the cabin, she washed a dress in the sink and hung it on the line to dry, taking pride in the fact that she was making do with what was available.

    22

    Baby Claire helped too, by taking her turn by demanding attention while I spent the time worrying about how I could protect the nest of fragile souls under my care.

    23

    Be gone, Jonny, unless you feel like taking on an Original.

    24

    Before Dean could remember what Shanghai offered for public transportation, Fred set about taking care of the needs and concerns of the returning guests.

    25

    Being subservient is taking a backward step for women.

    26

    Being wrong won't stop her from taking Destiny if she's determined, though.

    27

    Betsy opened her purse and complied before reaching back and taking Molly's hand.

    28

    Betsy was taking a long time.

    29

    Betty-Boop or whatever your name is, if you tarry much longer I may be forced to introduce myself, though taking you, at least at this time, would cause a mild alteration to my carefully formulated plans.

    30

    Both in Gaelic and in old French it is cat, although sometimes taking the form of chater in the latter; the Gaelic designation of the European wild cat being cat fiadhaich.

    31

    Brady growled, taking the box.

    32

    Brady ignored Dan, eyes taking in the progress of their preparations to leave.

    33

    Brady met her gaze again, taking in the array of emotions crossing her features.

    34

    Brady rested his laser gun on his shoulder, taking in the undisturbed minefield and pieces of bodies remaining after several of the intruders tried to cross the bio-elim field before it was disabled.

    35

    Brady threw himself down, rolled, and ran, taking cover behind a boulder as the laser missile exploded the ground in front of him.

    36

    Brandon was all but clinging to his cousin, whose gray eyes were taking in the group uneasily.

    37

    But he if thought her dead, and he was taking revenge on Qatwal, then some part of him must've cared!

    38

    But Leopold, alarmed at the turn affairs were taking, fled from Florence, and Montanelli, Guerrazzi and Mazzini were elected "triumvirs" of Tuscany.

    39

    But she's such a mouse, she stays with him, taking it on the chin, so to speak.

    40

    But she's taking hers much more seriously.

    41

    But their importunity made a hermitage in Paris impossible; a graceless friend even surprised the philosopher in bed at eleven in the morning meditating and taking notes.

    42

    But Wellhausen 1 is probably right in taking the word as a contraction for Hagariah ("Yahweh hath girded"), just as Zaccai (Zacchaeus) is known to be a contraction of Zechariah.

    43

    But while these events were taking place, a new source of embarrassment had arisen at Calcutta.

    44

    By taking a block of marble and carving a statue, or taking a handful of seed and growing a cornfield, you have combined your labor and know-how with something of little value and have created something of more value.

    45

    By the time Dean huffed his way downstairs from the last trip, everyone was assembled in the parlor, and introductions were taking place.

    46

    C'mon. I'm taking you someplace warm.

    47

    Carmen plunged into things courageously without taking the time to think things through.

    48

    Children come a-berrying, railroad men taking a Sunday morning walk in clean shirts, fishermen and hunters, poets and philosophers; in short, all honest pilgrims, who came out to the woods for freedom's sake, and really left the village behind, I was ready to greet with--"Welcome, Englishmen! welcome, Englishmen!" for I had had communication with that race.

    49

    Claire glanced away then back at him, taking in the resolve on his face.

    50

    Cold fear filtered through her, taking her breath away at the image he painted.

    51

    Coming out was a totally new step and one I shouldn't be taking alone.

    52

    Connie is taking me by to pick it up.

    53

    Cynthia came to the rescue, taking the young girl's arm, and led her to the kitchen.

    54

    Cynthia leaned back against the seat and closed her eyes while Brandon Westlake acted as if he were taking a Sunday afternoon ride in the park.

    55

    Cynthia rose to join her, taking her arm.

    56

    Damian gritted his teeth, unable to unleash the blow that could destroy them all in a blink without taking out Sofia as well.

    57

    Damian had come to tell him he was taking a special trip elsewhere.

    58

    Damian was the first to show his support by Traveling, taking the messenger with him.

    59

    Darian asked, taking in the vamps outside the doorway of the Black God's fortress.

    60

    Darian basically had to trade a life debt to the Others to keep them from taking me.

    61

    Darian demanded, taking her other arm.

    62

    Darian hesitated before making his decision and taking the stairs two at a time.

    63

    Darkyn moved in and out of her slowly, taking her closer to her climax.

    64

    Dean could hear Randy taking a deep breath.

    65

    Dean had no way of checking Byrne's mileage and if by chance he had detoured east on Interstate 84, probably 30 miles further, instead of taking the more direct south-easterly route between Scranton and Parkside.

    66

    Dean introduced Fred O'Connor, who was taking it all in, and the three chatted in a quieter area at the far end of the hall, away from the worst of the mayhem.

    67

    Deidre bit her tongue to keep from taking the bait.

    68

    Despite the piercing gaze she'd never quite gotten used to, she stepped past Jetr and looked up at her mate, taking him in breathlessly once again.

    69

    Did he resent the way she was taking over his dream?

    70

    Did he think she was incapable of taking care of herself, or had she simply tolerated his interference so long that it had become a habit?

    71

    Dusty and Talon rose, Talon taking the chance to launch himself at Dusty.

    72

    Dusty groused, taking in the lopsided posters of cars and beer bottle décor.

    73

    Dusty slammed the door behind him and entered the living room, his sharp gaze taking in every dark corner before he sat.

    74

    Early the next morning after taking Jonathan to school, she went back to the house and took care of the animals.

    75

    Earth movements are still taking place both along Bass Strait and the Great Valley of South Australia, and apparently along the whole length of tht southern coast of Australia.

    76

    Effie, you're far too intelligent to not know Claire is constantly taking advantage of you.

    77

    Elise did so grudgingly, taking in the PMF insurgents crowded around.

    78

    Even Fred O'Connor was taking the day off from his historical research to watch the festivities.

    79

    Even the Reynolds loved him, and they had every reason to dislike him for taking her away from their son.

    80

    Even with him taking the edge off, reality still wasn't real.

    81

    Everyone thinks it's finished, except Fred who is still taking notes.

    82

    Finally, taking a deep breath, she walked close to the bathroom and leaned against the wall.

    83

    For taking a chance on me.

    84

    For the first time since taking over the underworld, he had a small semblance of direction.

    85

    Frank led me down a long corridor to a large conference room filled with perhaps thirty intent individuals, standing and sitting, some taking notes, others with few buried faces in computer screens.

    86

    Fred began sorting through his papers, taking his time, building the suspense.

    87

    Fred joined Dean in the dining room, taking up the duty of chatting with the guests, a task Dean was not yet ready to perform after a less-than-complete night's sleep.

    88

    Fred O'Connor looked peeved that Dean delayed the interro­gation by taking time to discuss biking.

    89

    Fred, who had been taking it all in, gave a snort of laughter.

    90

    Fuming anyway, she pushed the curtains away from the balcony door and stepped into the night, winter's chill taking some of the heat out of her.

    91

    Fury stirred at the thought of Jessi taking it to them.

    92

    Gabriel had been, and she was furious at herself for not taking him more seriously and for choosing to accept Darkyn's deal instead of taking a chance with Gabriel.

    93

    Gabriel stopped and looked at him, taking in the dagger at his belt.

    94

    Getting me assigned to Darkyn and taking Gabriel, who won't want anything to do with you when he cares about me?

    95

    Golitsuin it was who suggested taking refuge in that strong fortress and won over the boyars of the opposite party.

    96

    Gradually it faded into the distance, taking her heart with it.

    97

    Granted, Shipton was taking a slight chance, but a mighty slim one.

    98

    Had he eaten supper, or had he been too occupied with taking care of her?

    99

    Had they been taking him for granted?

    100

    Hands trembling, she pulled off the necklace, taking her time to untangle the cord from her curls.

    101

    Hannah and I plan on taking our honeymoon there.

    102

    He also knew Tim wouldn't consider this part of taking care of her.

    103

    He and his climbing friends are taking Donnie to dinner later.

    104

    He and I are taking a little vacation trip to Maryland before he assumes his new life and disappears.

    105

    He and Ryland were taking pictures.

    106

    He ascended two floors to the hallway where Kris's supplies had been stocked.  He recalled how hard it could be taking care of a helpless creature like Katie or Toby.  He strode to the chamber that had served as a department store full of clothing to Kris's Immortals.  Not surprised to find the chamber ransacked, he sifted through the remaining clothing on the floor.  He guessed Toby's size and stuffed a bag with a few items before going to the food supplies.

    107

    He asked if he might record the interview in addition to taking notes.

    108

    He assisted at the taking of Wareham, and shortly afterwards compounded for his estates by a fine of X500 from which, however, he was afterwards relieved by Cromwell.

    109

    He considered taking Vinnie to jail for safekeep­ing, but the petrified man wouldn't hear of it.

    110

    He continued the practice, which he had commenced in 1848, of taking with him a small party of undergraduates in vacation time, and working with them in one of his favourite haunts, at Askrigg in Wensleydale, or Tummel Bridge, or later at WestMalvern.

    111

    He didn't, instead taking only what he needed to survive.

    112

    He drew her close, taking care not to touch her left shoulder.

    113

    He drove them through back roads and alleys to ensure no one followed before taking the highway and exiting into a direction that appeared to be nothing but desert.

    114

    He emerged into a busier hall and waited for her, taking her arm and leading her through the vamps.

    115

    He entered the university of Göttingen, but soon left, and, taking service in the Austrian army, took part in the Russian campaign of 1812, and fought in the following year at Dresden, Kulm and Leipzig.

    116

    He fell in behind them, taking advantage of the quieter air in their wake and kept pace with them.

    117

    He flew to the forest and shape shifted into a jaguar as he dropped to the ground, taking off through the forest.

    118

    He glanced at her, taking in the face he'd fallen for so long ago.

    119

    He gripped her upper arms, his concerned gaze taking in her face.

    120

    He hadn't said a word most of the day, taking in Dusty's world with fascination.

    121

    He held out a hand, and she hugged him instead of taking it.

    122

    He lectured in the schools on natural philosophy, and on Greek in his own rooms. In 1540 Smith went abroad, and, after studying in France and Italy and taking a degree of law at Padua, returned to Cambridge in 1542.

    123

    He lifted the ax, taking aim at a new block of wood.

    124

    He looked at her again, taking in her warm features and shapely body.

    125

    He looked down at her again, his gaze taking in her face.

    126

    He looked scared to death, Cynthia said, taking her husband's arm.

    127

    He made his way to the stairs and jogged up, taking them two at a time.

    128

    He never even men­tioned taking the money!

    129

    He paused momentarily, taking in her beauty.

    130

    He rose and, taking the arm of the attendant, steered the young man out to the slab where Wassermann was unaware of the turmoil he'd created.

    131

    He set down his glass, and taking Cynthia's hand, retreated from the parlor to the kitchen, without even bothering to make an excuse.

    132

    He shook his head, his gaze taking on a wizened look.

    133

    He slowed as he neared the tavern, taking in the amount of armed men gathered outside at such an early time.

    134

    He stepped forward, taking the scissors from her in one hand and one of her wrists in the other.

    135

    He stood in front of the glass French doors of the balcony, taking up the whole space with his massive frame and heavy trench coat.

    136

    He studied her, dark depths taking her in with quiet intensity she was not yet accustomed to.

    137

    He sure is taking his time investigating.

    138

    He surprised me in a later conversation by mentioning he was taking steps to remedy the problem.

    139

    He was kidnapping her, taking her far away to a place Evelyn would never find her.

    140

    He was left feeling dirty, like he was leading her on with enough encouragement to keep her from taking matters into her own hands but not so much that her tumor grew.

    141

    He was taking in everything around him with eyes that were never still.

    142

    He was taking on a lot of responsibility – maybe more than he could handle.

    143

    He was, after all, taking time off work during the busiest time of the year for an accountant to be with her.

    144

    He wasn't taking chances she'd survive.

    145

    He would leave the next day, after taking care of some business.

    146

    He'd be taking a big risk and going to a lot of trouble just because I took a couple of swings at him.

    147

    He'd regretted taking her to his bed initially but now wished he'd taken up her offer to become his companion, even if only for the few nights they had together.

    148

    He's just taking it to the next level.

    149

    Her adrenaline soared at the thought of taking the vehicle out on Highway 1, the road that hugged the coast.

    150

    Her eyes had been shadowed since he met her, her own struggle with her new world taking a visible toll on her.

    151

    Her position at the table shifted as the program grew more complex; she dropped her feet to the ground and leaned forward, taking in the rapidly changing situation.

    152

    His gaze charted her face, taking in every detail.

    153

    His gaze went to her wrist, and he closed the distance between them, taking it.

    154

    His thigh was against hers, his large frame taking up most of the bench.

    155

    His violence gave Pellegrini the opportunity of taking active steps to preserve the peace.

    156

    Hours later they were still awake, talking intermittently, taking comfort in one another.

    157

    How about taking care of her?

    158

    How are the kids taking it?

    159

    How come you're still taking notes?

    160

    How did you tell your best friend that aliens were real and oh, by the way, I married one and am taking you with me to his planet, for your own good?

    161

    How is Howie taking it?

    162

    How many of the anti-sleepers have you been taking?

    163

    Howie refuses to leave without taking all those machines with him.

    164

    I acted presumptuously in not taking the others, especially my, into my confidence.

    165

    I am perfectly capable of taking care of myself, but if you think I want to spend the rest of my life like this, you don't know me at all.

    166

    I appreciate you taking care of me.

    167

    I can't imagine you taking advantage of a person down on their luck.

    168

    I chastise myself for taking an undue risk, when other means are available.

    169

    I didn't know she was taking it seriously.

    170

    I got used to you taking care of me.

    171

    I guess I've always been a dreamer and one night when I was just taking a piss I tripped over a couple suitcases with all my dreams in 'em. Sometimes there are temptations you just can't pass up.

    172

    I guess taking care of animals.

    173

    I guess that shows they at least believed what they were doing was right—not just whacking you on the spur of the moment because they were mad as hell, taking their anger out on your backside.

    174

    I have been taking care of the children and this house for years – not to mention the time I've spent taking care of you!.

    175

    I have no intention of being subservient - and how is that taking a backward step, anyway?

    176

    I have the least rewarding job of any of us so my desires are directed to family and this mind boggling venture Howie is taking us on.

    177

    I have to convince you; taking it on faith alone isn't enough.

    178

    I just hope God doesn't punish me by...taking my mother.

    179

    I knew this conversation deserved more thought on my part but it felt good taking some action, even if it might prove misguided.

    180

    I quit smoking and I'm taking it out on everyone.

    181

    I really appreciate you taking time for them.

    182

    I should start charging you for taking the edge off as often as I do.

    183

    I think I could cut it away.  I've tried taking off my shoe and maneuvering my foot every which way.

    184

    I thought you were saying it was good that I was taking him to the hospital.

    185

    I was taking a bath earlier and I heard sounds in the hallway.

    186

    I was taking a route no one else could track.

    187

    I will shred Dusty for not taking better care of you!

    188

    I would think if they see the connection they might be leery of taking our calls.

    189

    I'd have asked anyone else for more rea­son, but nobody could remember Jeff taking a day off—ever.

    190

    I'm just taking a break.

    191

    I'm not sure running against Lydia will be any easier than taking on Fitzgerald.

    192

    I'm not taking any chances.

    193

    I'm not taking chances that mosquitoes or whatever remain.

    194

    I'm not taking chances this happens again.

    195

    I'm not taking you seriously.

    196

    I'm not taking you there, kiri.

    197

    I'm supposed to be taking care of you...

    198

    I'm taking a break.

    199

    I'm taking a couple with me.

    200

    I'm taking another chance telling you, you know.

    201

    I'm taking calls and dealing with issues almost 24/7.

    202

    I'm taking her out of the underworld.

    203

    I'm taking him to the doctor.

    204

    I'm taking steps to remedy those issues.

    205

    I'm taking the children shopping this morning.

    206

    I'm taking the dealer who hurt her.

    207

    I've been taking a breather from that life.

    208

    I've been taking care of you since you were born.

    209

    If he pushes back, the Original Other won't have the luxury of options for taking the gem.

    210

    If I hadn't taken time to apply my sleeping solution to the rag, I'd have been in the process of taking them just as that police car with its flashing lights came rolling up!

    211

    If it isn't the skunks and opossum killing the chickens, it's the weeds taking over the garden.

    212

    If nothing else, she wanted to correct him about the Peak, to tell him she'd thought she'd been saving everyone on the mountain by taking the very keypads that might kill them in the hands of a traitor.

    213

    If you were in a beauty contest with Shipton, it wouldn't be you taking home the medals.

    214

    In 1643 Cromwell performed one of his earlier exploits in taking Lowestoft, capturing large supplies and making prisoners of several influential royalists.

    215

    In 294 B.C. he was defeated at Mantineia by Demetrius Poliorcetes, who invaded Laconia, gained a second victory close to Sparta, and was on the point of taking the city itself when he was called t So Plut.

    216

    In any case, she was supposed to be taking care of the guests, not the other way around.

    217

    In fact, it was Felipa who made the announcement – that she was taking an early flight back home.

    218

    In order to render an 'account of Tyndall's "residual blue" it is necessary to pursue the approximation further, taking for simplicity the case of spherical shape.

    219

    In the hall beyond, most of the murmured conversation was taking place as feet tromped around the house.

    220

    In the midst of Charles's debauched and licentious court, she lived neglected and retired, often deprived of her due allowance, having no ambitions and taking no part in English politics, but keeping up rather her interest in her native country.

    221

    Instead of taking a portal to his cabin in the Everdark forest, he hiked through the woods.

    222

    It doesn't seem as if we're taking this business of getting you elected very seriously.

    223

    It had the effect they desired of convincing the Others he had crushed the gem and was unleashing hell on earth in his quest for revenge for them taking Jessi.

    224

    It involves them taking your soul and sending it to Hell.

    225

    It is very interesting to watch a plant grow, it is like taking part in creation.

    226

    It was an unforgettable day and Dean never once thought of the missing Mr. Byrne until mid-afternoon while they were taking a short break and Cynthia mentioned his name.

    227

    It was getting late and the air was taking on a chill.

    228

    It was going to be hard, maybe even harder than finding his soul in the underworld, but the opportunity was theirs for the taking.

    229

    It was nice to have someone concerned about her without taking over.

    230

    It was still early when the group left Café Richard, but to Dean's surprise Fred suggested Dean drop him off before taking Cynthia Byrne back to Sherwood Forest.

    231

    It was taking his muscles a long time to stretch.

    232

    It wasn't unusual for him to unwind after a trip by taking a ride and Carmen accepted it with the usual grace.

    233

    It, too, was empty, as if the Other had fled and was taking Yully with him.

    234

    It's also a bond that folks in my position have to be careful about taking on, because it leaves me vulnerable.

    235

    It's always different when someone else is doing the taking, isn't it, Heidi?

    236

    It's out of doors, but even in the winter it's like taking an outdoor bath.

    237

    It's taking three so-called experts way too long to figure it out.

    238

    Jackson began taking notes.

    239

    Jackson sat in the chair by the window, taking in the landscape.

    240

    Jackson stood in front of the open refrigerator, taking out bags one at a time, tasting, then either putting them back or on the table.

    241

    Jackson walked around taking in the art, and searching for three oils he intended to buy.

    242

    Jared limped after him and appeared beside him on the cliff edge, taking in the morning view of grey skies and green forest with a look of distaste.

    243

    Jenn gazed towards the wall, mentally determining her chances at taking on six guardsmen and getting them all over the wall before more came or worse—before Others showed up.

    244

    Jenn leaned against the sink counter, one hand taking the worn, ancient medallion around her neck.

    245

    Jenn ran small wand over her body, eyes expertly taking in her skin.

    246

    Jenn yanked him against her, taking in his burned profile.

    247

    Jessi drew out the inevitable by taking her time to select her food.

    248

    Jessi glanced up, taking them in.

    249

    Jessi looked at him again, taking in the thick form and gaze so direct and piercing, it was almost hostile.

    250

    Jessi's hands visibly shook, and he reached out to her, taking the hair band she was trying to use on her hair.

    251

    Jonny approached her until he stood toe-to-toe with her, gaze taking in her body.

    252

    Jonny wasn't trained in reading minds; his entrance into hers was like taking a machete to a piñata.

    253

    Josh is taking care of the goats?

    254

    Just said he wanted it done soon because he wasn't taking any risks, even if she hadn't started transforming yet.

    255

    Just when they were getting a little tipsy and their inhibitions were taking a walk, but before they were slurring their words.

    256

    Katie accused her of allowing Alex to make decisions because she had no confidence in herself – and that Alex was taking advantage of her because he had a controlling personality.

    257

    Katie frowned.  In the course of a day, Gabe had gone from emotional to unaffected when discussing Death.  He was distracted, and she felt like she was talking to someone completely different.  Blaming herself for taking his mind off of their survival, she fell silent and followed him.   Briars and branches caught her pant legs, and she found herself slowing to push more and more of the jungle's flora out of the way.  Gabe, too, began to struggle with the bramble, and she noticed the jungle no longer laid their path before him.  Instead of clearing away to allow them passage, it stayed where it was, obstructing them.

    258

    Katie hesitated to speak her mind, her gaze taking in Sasha.s beat-up body.

    259

    Katie stood on her tiptoes and looked up, taking one last look at the blue sky before she held her breath and ducked beneath the water.

    260

    Katie was expecting a child now - Katie, who had trouble taking care of herself.

    261

    Kiera's eyes strayed from Evelyn's, and she twisted all the way around, taking in everything, before she started to cry.

    262

    Lacy wore a skirt too short and tight for office wear, but when you're the boss … "I noticed you've been taking a lot of sick time lately," Lacy said as Sofia entered the room.

    263

    Lana stared at his wide chest, taking him in with a look of desire.

    264

    Landing at Nice on the 24th of June 1848, he placed his sword at the disposal of Charles Albert, and, after various difficulties with the Piedmontese war office, formed a volunteer army 3000 strong, but shortly after taking the field was obliged, by the defeat of Custozza, to flee to Switzerland.

    265

    Landon, start taking accountability of dealers and compasses throughout the day.

    266

    Later, as they descended the stairs to the hall, Dean commented, "It's nice to think Annie and her friends are up there in heaven smiling down on us, probably thinking that we're nuts for always taking on everyone's problems."

    267

    Laurencio was taking her picture.

    268

    Leaning forward, elbows on his knees, he rubbed his face with his hands finally taking his eyes off her face.

    269

    Let me guess.  That happens tonight, if I don't get to wherever it is Gabe was taking me.

    270

    Like taking a job at the home of a stranger?

    271

    Logan's taking off work early today, so we can have a long weekend at the beach.

    272

    Mansr tripped, taking all three of them down.

    273

    Martha made the call, saying she thought she saw a girl taking a short cut across the pond.

    274

    Maybe Gabriel taking her to Death would make the lives of those around her easier.

    275

    Maybe he didn't stop Edith Shipton from taking her own life and maybe he couldn't have done so if he'd tried, but the bottom line scrawled in bold print said he stood idly by while it happened.

    276

    Maybe he should be taking the Midol.

    277

    Maybe it was simply that she had achieved her dream of a horse ranch and was moving on to the next – taking over his dream.

    278

    More than likely she was taking them out for a morning treat.

    279

    Mr. Thomas Morley was admitted with a gunshot wound to his leg, sustained, according to him, when he was mugged in an alley while taking a short cut to his car.

    280

    Mrs. Lincoln sauntered into the room, blinking her eyes at the late hour, and Fred reached down and picked her up with one arm, taking a beer from Dean with the other.

    281

    Much as I'd like to, I won't ask her if her mother's maiden name was Plotke, nor will I tell her daddy's bones may be taking a motor home trip up the west coast—or that his pinkie is in your jewel case.

    282

    Much of the climbing activity was taking place in an area called The Schoolroom, with various routes classified and given names— Verminator, Duncan's Delight and Bloody Sunday.

    283

    No one will fault you for taking that one step further and cleaning house, Dr. Wynn said with a faint smile.

    284

    Not after she'd been working at it awhile, Cynthia answered, not taking her eyes from the page as she continued to work.

    285

    Not hesitating to hand over the compass, she appeared torn at taking the final step of betrayal.

    286

    Not unless you've been taking hormones.

    287

    Number three was a father taking a son from the boy's mother who held custody rights.

    288

    Of course, it would be more profitable for the ranch if I culled those animals by taking them to the slaughter house.

    289

    Okay. You probably won't consider taking me with you when you leave here?

    290

    Once only do we find him taking an interest in the affairs of his neighbours, - to ask pardon from the government for a homicide.'

    291

    One of them entered the bedroom, cold eyes taking in the surroundings.

    292

    One of them was taking her to his underworld.

    293

    Only now, he couldn't help thinking she was the only woman he'd ever met he would even consider taking such an oath to.

    294

    Or maybe, he wanted to get rid of his own regret at the idea of taking such a sweet soul, someone who might've been a kindred spirit in a different time and place.

    295

    Organized tours provided sag wagons—vehi­cles to haul luggage from one overnight stop to another—but Dean preferred carrying his own gear rather than taking time to sift through a thousand sets of belongings nightly.

    296

    Otherwise, you start taking each other for granted.

    297

    Pausing at her normal bus stop, Deidre debated walking instead of taking the bus.

    298

    Praying he didn't take it out on Ashley, Jessi cursed the teen silently for taking her phone.

    299

    Quinn tricked me by not admitting where he was taking me.

    300

    Rather than taking souls and risking a run-in with him or his dealers, the demons snatched the dead or killed whomever they wanted and brought them here, where they'd have more time for soul extraction.

    301

    Reaching high and taking a firm grip on the rope, she lifted herself, clamping the rope between her knees and letting her feet rest on the piece of broomstick.

    302

    Recently, he.d begun thinking he.d need more if he were taking on demons, Immortals, and anything else the Dark One would throw at him.

    303

    Rhyn glanced at him, taking in the arm in a sling.  Kris was healing from an attacker Rhyn had saved him from, the day Katie killed herself.

    304

    Romas whirled at the name, and she ran into him before taking a quick step back.

    305

    Sasha chuckled, his gaze taking in the sarcophagus.

    306

    She and Bill were taking them to a birthday party at church.

    307

    She at once quitted Nohant, taking with her Solange, and in 1831 an amicable separation was agreed upon, by which her whole estate was surrendered to the husband with the stipulation that she should receive an allowance of £120 a year.

    308

    She didn't appear to have any reservations about Sam, but he wasn't taking any chances.

    309

    She didn't blame him for taking out his father's family.

    310

    She felt his pain once more at taking away everything Rhyn had and pitied the assassin, despite her predicament.

    311

    She finished spreading her woodchips and watched him, taking refuge against the drizzle in the protection of one column.

    312

    She followed his gaze, taking in the bare glossy walls and impressive fireplace with one forlorn glance.

    313

    She gazed up at him, soft eyes taking him in.

    314

    She glanced down, taking a moment to compose herself, and then placed her hand over Jackson's.

    315

    She had been taking care of everything to do with their homes for the last few years, so that was familiar territory.

    316

    She hesitated before taking his hand.

    317

    She led him first down the hallway where the gym was, pointing out the locker rooms and weapons room before taking him to the second floor to Jonny's wing and past her doorless room.

    318

    She made an effort to compose herself, taking deep breaths.

    319

    She moved forward, taking refuge from him in his own arms, a reality that amused him.

    320

    She needed to put more effort into taking advantage of life while she could.

    321

    She needed to shower and change clothes before taking her guests out on the first tour.

    322

    She nudged her horse, taking in the scene with growing anger and fear.

    323

    She opened the door to her tiny room, taking in the two twin beds with sagging metal frames.

    324

    She pivoted and entered the room, taking baby steps and leaving him to close the door behind her.

    325

    She recalled taking messages from Dusty to Sofi and how, at first, Darian hadn't even been able to register the sound of another human's voice.

    326

    She reviewed the last several days, taking in the swelling number of enemies in the skies and on the ground.

    327

    She said you were interested in taking a walk around the estate.

    328

    She sat, taking in the Goth décor that made the study as welcoming as a graveyard.

    329

    She staggered at the sensation, taking in the crumbled world around her.

    330

    She stopped in front of one at last, taking in the cuneiform writing.

    331

    She thought of Elise's security detail and then of the Vice President, the President's staff, the renowned scholars and businessmen taking refuge there.

    332

    She traced the scars along one side of his face, taking in his features with concern.

    333

    She trailed him up the stairs, taking in every inch of his perfectly round butt to his slender hips and thick back.

    334

    She walked slowly, taking in everything from the patches of blue sky visible through the trees to the spring flowers sprinkling the forest floor.

    335

    She was taking liberties he had been gentleman enough to resist.

    336

    She wasn't accustomed to anyone taking the time to think of her.

    337

    She withdrew, taking the feeling of peace with her.

    338

    She worked hard at taking care of her husband and children, yet how often had someone told her she was a good wife and mother - or even a nice person?

    339

    She would be taking care of the animals and house.

    340

    She's worked for three years without taking any time off.

    341

    Shipton laughed, never taking his eyes from Cynthia.

    342

    Skin clammy with nervous sweat, Deidre concentrated on taking deep breaths.

    343

    So what if he failed at taking out a target?

    344

    So you aren't mad at me for taking off the necklace and lying to you and not trusting you to help me.

    345

    So you think she wants to get back at you by taking me away?

    346

    So, we're not breaking up, just taking time apart.

    347

    Sofi's skill relied mostly on reading the future of a specific soul by touching them, and he'd not let her within miles of a vamp since taking over her guardianship.

    348

    Sofia dropped her backpack onto the kitchen counter, taking in the damage.

    349

    Some nights, dreams took her on a stealthy walk down the path, taking advantage of every bush for cover.

    350

    Some years after his accession David succeeded after some difficulty in taking Jerusalem.

    351

    Somebody was making a statement and someone else wasn't taking it too well.

    352

    Somehow I get the idea he'd be taking on more than he could handle.

    353

    Someone accustomed to taking what he wanted didn't just help someone like her.

    354

    Sprinkled in the assortment of oldies were a few exceptions—two couples both named Dawkins, and Pumpkin Green, a young man taking a break from his cross country hike to California in support of the homeless, or so he claimed.

    355

    Still sailing northward, taking notes as he proceeded for a rough chart of the coast, and landing at Bustard and Keppel Bays and the Bay of Inlets, Cook passed over 1300 m.

    356

    Straight to Death.  If what Gabe said was true, he was taking her to the only way out of the underworld.  And yet, she feared what that would mean.  Was she supposed to reason with Death?

    357

    Sure, and everyone would have scandalized me for taking it away from his family and my own daughter.

    358

    Taking a deep breath, he walked toward Carmen.

    359

    Taking a deep breath, she hesitantly inserted her hand into the birth canal and carefully slid it along the tiny leg until she felt the muzzle.

    360

    Taking a deep breath, she lowered the groceries to the steps and retained her grip on the broom.

    361

    Taking a deep breath, she plunged in.

    362

    Taking a few running steps toward the living room, she turned and flipped it at him.

    363

    Taking a few steps back she gripped the ax half way down on the handle and slammed it down against the block of wood with a dull whack.

    364

    Taking a sip of the wine colored liquid, he sat the glass in a coaster on the smooth mahogany desk and dropped the letter beside it.

    365

    Taking a small tablet and a pencil from her purse, she put them in front of him.

    366

    Taking all things into consideration, the aboriginal population of the continent may be set down at something like 180,000.

    367

    Taking for a Townsend's value 1.2 +10-6, Mache finds n =1800.

    368

    Taking heart, the exiled barons gathered together some troops, and war began in the neighbourhood of Rome.

    369

    Taking her face in his hands, his thumbs stroked the soft skin on her cheeks.

    370

    Taking her in his arms, he held her close for a moment and then planted a kiss on her forehead.

    371

    Taking her shoes from him, she met his puzzled gaze and shrugged.

    372

    Taking i volt equal 1/300 of an electrostatic unit, we find M =0.000265.

    373

    Taking in the scene, Victor pushed Cassandra toward Jackson bellowing, "Take him!"

    374

    Taking mincing steps so that the water wouldn't slosh out of the buckets, she worked her way toward the barn door.

    375

    Taking on an infant would mean a massive lifestyle change.

    376

    Taking one arm gently, he turned her back to him and pushed her hair away to read the tattoo.

    377

    Taking one last look before I have to leave.

    378

    Taking opossums to have been the ancestors of the group, the author considers that the present writer may be right in his view that marsupials entered Australia from Asia by way of New Guinea.

    379

    Taking pity on the sad flowers, she bought a bunch before continuing on her journey home.

    380

    Taking the district generally, the difference between the mean Wales.

    381

    Taking the Lachlan as one type of Australian river, we find it takes its rise amongst the precipitous and almost unexplored valleys of the Great Dividing Range.

    382

    Taking the risk, she began to type.

    383

    Taking them from north to south, the principal rivers are the Richmond, Clarence, Macleay, Hastings, Manning, Hunter, Hawkesbury and Shoalhaven.

    384

    Taking two prizes is a challenge but the ultimate reward will be worth the aggravation!

    385

    Taking you to see your father.

    386

    Taran glanced at him, taking in familiar cocoa features.

    387

    Tears forming, Jessi sank into her couch, eyes on the photo of her and the two teens she was supposed to be taking care of.

    388

    Tell him I appreci­ate his taking time to call me.

    389

    Thank you for taking care of me all this time.

    390

    Thank you for taking care of me.

    391

    Thank you so much for taking me in and not throwing me out after what I told you.

    392

    Thank you, Reverend Martin, for taking me away, even for just an afternoon.

    393

    That doesn't sound very smart on your part, taking on a guy with a tool like that in his hand.

    394

    That got me pissed off and Quinn accused me of always taking Howie's side.

    395

    That, and the little matter of a cookie in the oven of love, which seemed to be taking a back seat in her ire.

    396

    That's just taking it out of one pocket and putting it into the other.

    397

    The authorities were most sympathetic and cautioned me against taking short cuts when parking in the city at night.

    398

    The bed was huge, taking center stage in the room.

    399

    The brunette obeyed, taking her place at his left.

    400

    The car had quickly made a U-turn and followed Fred, not taking care to disguise its actions.

    401

    The ceremony of hoisting a flag and taking possession of the country in the name of the government of the Netherlands was actually performed, but the description of the wildness of the country, and of the fabulous giants by which Tasman's sailors believed it to be inhabited, deterred the Dutch from occupying the island, and by the international principle of " non-user " it passed from their hands.

    402

    The drug wore off, leaving her in a dark fog, hot and sweating with a different kind of headache, the kind she got after taking a lot of Dr. Mallard's drugs.

    403

    The events of the last few days coupled with the dread of the unknown future were taking their toll.

    404

    The fifth demon had finished him off by crushing his skull and taking his soul.

    405

    The Fred O'Connor Cyber Cafe was unplugged from electronic connection to the world at large, as the old gentleman was taking his sweet time moving his belongings downstairs.

    406

    The group left the Jeep and spent more than an hour on foot with Cynthia taking infinite care with each of her photos.

    407

    The guests, apparently taking advantage of the improving weather, had not returned.

    408

    The knights strengthened Valletta and its harbour by bastions, curtain-walls, lines and forts, towards the sea, towards the land and on every available point, taking advantage in every particular of the natural rock and of the marvellous advantages of situation, rendering it then almost impregnable.

    409

    The largest group was assembled below the bridge where some activity was taking place.

    410

    The meeting only lasted an hour, and when she returned, Destiny was taking a nap.

    411

    The molar teeth are six in number on each side, increasing in size from before backwards, and, as in the elephants, with a horizontal succession, the anterior teeth being lost before the full development of the posterior ones, which gradually move forward, taking the place of those that are destroyed by wear.

    412

    The money would assist in taking care of her schooling.

    413

    The newly hatched insect closely resembles the parent, and the wing-rudiments appear externally on the second and third thoracic segments; but before the final moult the nymph remains quiescent, taking no food.

    414

    The plan he'd begun to form was finally taking shape.

    415

    The Quincys are out, taking pictures around town and then off to the library.

    416

    The sound of running water from the bathroom proclaimed that Katie was taking a shower.

    417

    The thought of taking down Memon's men thrilled him more than it should.

    418

    The walk was familiar, though he didn't recall ever taking it before.

    419

    Then, never taking her gaze off the snake, she backed down the steps.

    420

    Then, with her head bowed, taking small spoonfuls, she asked, If I did something really bad—if I broke a really important rule, what would you do?

    421

    There is much in the newspapers about closing the saloons and dance halls and even taking away the slot machines.

    422

    There was anger in her voice, her eyes cast downward "We have to talk," Dean said, taking the only other seat.

    423

    There were some decisions that should be made jointly, and being in control meant taking full responsibility.

    424

    There's others taking care of her.

    425

    These substances were regarded as being in some sense alive, and taking some active part in the development of being.

    426

    They gazed at each other for a long moment, each taking the other in.

    427

    They meant to light the fuse on his emotions and power by taking what he cared for most.

    428

    They moved on, taking circuitous routes back to the underground entrance in case they were being watched.

    429

    They paused on the front porch, taking off their boots and shaking their clothes in the afternoon sun.

    430

    They result from the cobaltammines by the direct taking up of oxygen and water.

    431

    They're having a spring festival at the preschool and I'm taking the boys.

    432

    They're starting on the ice climbers but they're only taking about five minutes with each of 'em. I think Penny is in there now.

    433

    They're taking pretty good care of us senior volun­teers.

    434

    Thinking of taking a dive in the lake and not surfacing again, except that it meant she'd lose her soul.

    435

    This is what you're taking west.

    436

    This will sound crazy, he said, taking a deep breath.

    437

    Those days were filled with the fun of taking care of the twins.

    438

    Three weeks ago, he.d bargained his soul in exchange for her taking Rhyn off her list of those to be made dead-dead.

    439

    Thursday morning when Carmen was taking care of the horses, she noticed that Casper's nipples were dripping.

    440

    To Dean, the tunnel was even more claustrophobic as he hunched forward, taking baby steps like a second grade schoolyard game.

    441

    Toni watched, her hungry gaze taking in every part of Xander.

    442

    Troubled, Xander didn't bother taking his snack to the table but wolfed it down over the sink, too troubled to care about the mess he made.

    443

    Ully reappeared with a carafe of whiskey and set it down, taking Andre's head nod as a cue to leave.

    444

    Um, it's … you know what, you can drink your tea and I'll make breakfast, Cora said, taking the eggs.

    445

    Under the influence of Archbishop Chicheley, who had himself founded two colleges in imitation of Wykeham, and Thomas Bekynton, king's secretary and privy seal, and other Wyke - hamists, Henry VI., on the 11th of October 1440, founded, in imitation of Winchester College, "a college in the parish church of Eton by Windsor not far from our birthplace," called the King's College of the Blessed Mary of Eton by Windsor, as "a sort of first-fruits of his taking the government on himself."

    446

    Until now, money had aided him in taking care of her.

    447

    Was he being unfair, taking the easy way out?

    448

    Was it bloated, or did he look like he was taking a nap?

    449

    We haven't discussed giving it up; only taking a short leave to have our baby.

    450

    We know where he's taking her.

    451

    We nicknamed him the Phoenix, which is notorious for not only rising from ashes but also for taking down everyone and everything around them in flames.

    452

    We stood back to back, holding hands and baby-stepped three hundred and sixty degrees, taking in the breath taking scene in all directions.

    453

    We stopped for an ice cream to compose our guest though I disliked taking the time from calling Daniel Brennan to run the license plate number we'd recorded.

    454

    We'll be taking him to ICU in a few minutes and it will be awhile before we know anything.

    455

    We'll start by taking out what's here and the warehouse where he's storing weapons.

    456

    We're not taking them away.

    457

    We're taking it a day at a time.
