Progress is running far behind Iraqi expectations in virtually every area. In their view, most Iraqis are not seeing 'amazing progress.' All too many of them live in constant danger, with less electricity in many areas than under Saddam Hussein.
advice gave hard inspired knew running start
She inspired me to start running and getting back into shape. She knew that it was hard for me to get to the gym, so she gave me advice and help.
running sight long
Television hangs on the questionable theory that whatever happens anywhere should be sensed everywhere. If everyone is going to be able to see everything, in the long run all sights may lose whatever rarity value they once possessed, and it may well turn out that people, being able to see and hear practically everything, will be specially interested in almost nothing.
running children sadness
A man's liberal and conservative phases seem to follow each other in a succession of waves from the time he is born. Children are radicals. Youths are conservatives, with a dash of criminal negligence. Men in their prime are liberals (as long as their digestion keeps pace with their intellect).

We should all do what, in the long run, gives us joy, even if it is only picking grapes or sorting the laundry.
funny running dog
It sometimes takes days, even weeks, before a dog's nerves tire. In the case of terriers it can run into months.
running people politics
The so-called science of poll-taking is not a science at all but mere necromancy. People are unpredictable by nature, and although you can take a nation's pulse, you can't be sure that the nation hasn't just run up a flight of stairs.
blowing couple football joking running season tempo throwing whistle
What you see is what you're going to get all the time. Running on the field, throwing the football, joking around, going to the movies. I don't know if he's ever really serious, other than blowing the whistle a couple of times during the season when the tempo isn't right at practice.

When we recruit running backs, we recruit big backs,
children running shot streets
You would think that after so many children have been shot running around the streets with real guns, that they wouldn't make things like this anymore,

Our kids are not intimidated by running against Div. I kids as we do a lot of that indoors and out here, so they just line up and run their race and as you can see we have some pretty good runners here.
asking consider election federal likely mayor november people prior running seriously
If there was a federal election I was going to consider running for mayor because a lot of people were asking me. I said if there was an election prior to November I would likely do that. I would seriously consider it at that point,
