The poem builds in my mind and sits there, as if in a register, until the poem, or a piece of a longer poem, is finished enough to write down.

Until today, I've always regarded my most profound professional responsibility in my professional life the blessing I had to hold in my hands the human heart, recognizing all its glory and all its potential, and then technically seating it into the chest of a dying woman to give her life and a future she would not otherwise have. . . . A few moments ago, my colleagues gave me a responsibility equal to that -- some would even say a heavier one. I accepted that responsibility with a profound sense of humility. They gave me their confidence, their support, their trust -- and elected me to serve as their leader in the United States Senate.

Until they say we can't make it, we'll keep chipping away, and try to win and hold up our end.

We're going to put importance on the depth chart through the jerseys. We talked to the guys who have the white jerseys on offense and the crimson jerseys on defense about how you have to fight every day to hold on to those jerseys. We want it on their minds. We want to create an atmosphere that we have more competition that we've ever had.

We're going to play hard and we're going to defend you. We were happy to hold Nick to 14 points, which not many teams are going to be able to do because he's a big-time player.

We're going to need them. There are going to be days in the year we are going to have to call on them to do the job and hold the fort so we can try to win a game. They did that today.

What this case demonstrates is what the military has said it would do all along, and that is to hold those accountable who violated policy, procedures, uniform code of military justice, and did things that were inappropriate and wrong.

When we don't get turnovers, we can't win. We had just enough late to hold on to the lead by playing tight defense and swarming the ball. We really dug out some ugly rebounds tonight.

When we got behind we knew they were going to try to hold the ball so we wanted to put some pressure on them. We tried our trap, we tried some man to man and I think we defended pretty well out of it but they made some big shots down the stretch and we didn't. Tonight they were the better team.

When we first got into foster care we said there was no way we were going to adopt. We told all of the case member right away we are just here to help out, but we adopted the first one, then the second one and so it got to the point that every time we were going to hold a family meeting, our older kids knew what we were going to say.

We got to where we made some better decisions as far as passes were concerned. We didn't hold the ball as much and telegraph passes. I though we had better reversal. We got out on the break a little bit better where we were able to get some better looks at the basket and not get into so many half-court sets. We do want these kids to get out and use some of their athleticism and play in the open court a little bit and I thought we did a much better job of that in the second half.

What's really cool about our family is that we don't hold grudges, and I think that is what's been the key to the success. We get into our little disagreements, and whether we're right or wrong, we'll go and apologize. That's just the way we are.

We're going to hold the average to as close to $1 million as we can.

With Nikki pitching, or Taylor pitching, there aren't many balls hit to our fielders, and when there is one, our defense came up real big and made the plays. Even if there was a hit, we're not getting rattled. The six seniors kind of hold us together.

We feel bad for Andray but the positive thing is that he is healthy and that his career isn't over before it took off. It's sad that something like this happened to him during his rookie season, but he will be all right. We will continue to pray for him, hope for a speedy recovery and hold down the fort until he gets back.

We feel bad for Andray, ... But the positive thing is that he is healthy and that his career isn't over before it took off. It's sad that something like this happened to him during his rookie season, but he will be all right. We will continue to pray for him, hope for a speedy recovery and hold down the fort until he gets back.

We feed off McCarty. We know he's going to hold them to very few runs, and if we score several, we have a very good chance of winning the game.

We face the biggest risk here of any circuit we race on. The danger isn't so much hitting the tyre barriers as hitting another car that has already spun.

We're really a close group. You see your buddy down there, and the stretcher board comes out and it's not a very comfortable feeling. I know the boys are real close to each other. And whenever you see somebody have to be carried off like that, it's very discomforting. You read about these kinds of injuries and you just hold your breath. And I'm sure he's OK, and we want him back.

With the outlook beyond 2006 as uncertain as ever, we remain comfortable with our hold recommendation.

With the ongoing political tensions in Iran and with Nigerian militants threatening more attacks on oil companies, short covering should push prices higher next week.

We knew we were going to have some problems with pass protection. We knew that coming in. But, obviously, we didn't get it solved during the ballgame and Trent got hit too many times. We had a hard time getting the ball downfield because he couldn't hold onto the ball long enough.

We let them go because they expressed an interest in working with law enforcement. We haven't seen hide nor hair of him since. He didn't hold up his end of the bargain.

We knew they would come at us aggressively in their full-court press if they got behind. We expected it from the beginning. We said, if we can hold fort at that time, we'd be all right. We didn't do a very good job of it, but what I was proud of my kids of doing, after I called a time out and challenged them a little bit ... they became more aggressive and less hesitant.

We knew they were going to make a run. We needed to build up a big enough lead and then hold on, and we weren't able to do that.

We knew they were going to make a run at us. You hold a team that's ranked eighth in the state to 37 points in the game, that's a hell of a job defensively.

We know we're not just a 2-14 team. We just have to remember how to win. And remember how to hold on to the lead and continue to improve once you have the lead. There's nothing wrong with beating a team 55-0.

We know we couldn't hold the great start we began with. But we must start playing how we did in those first few games.

Vernal pools can be found in a number of places. From high-elevation saddles between mountaintops down to flood plains in the Champlain Valley. Basically any place that will hold water for three or four months at a time is a potential breeding site.

With this hand you can clutch objects such as a ball, you can move the thumb out to one side and grip objects with the index finger in the way you do when opening a lock with a key, and you can wrap your fingers around an object in what we call the power grip - like the one you use when you hold a hammer or a microphone.

Wow ... that would be something. I?d think we?d need to hold a big party at Fairfield High. It would be huge.

We're still in that pattern. Everyone is on hold and waiting for the next (quarterly results) pre-announcement season in September.

We're seeing a nice handful of earnings today. That is going to be the driver. The other driver, or the thing that's not going to hold us back this quarter, and I would argue has held us back the last three quarters, is the consensus is the Fed is done for the year, ... We don't have a credit tightening cycle to go through and we're seeing terrific earnings. So I would argue that the focus returns now to earnings growth, revenue growth, the strength of corporate America and not necessarily the macro-economic themes like monetary policy which have been on the forefront for the last couple of quarters.

We're seeing a minor technical rebound after Wall Street rebounded from two days of losses. The key will be whether the index can hold above 17,400, if it can't it will indicate we'll see another single-day reversal.

We've got more bus space than people and I'm not going to send them off empty. We are going to hold empty buses until the bitter end.

We have to have a different mind-set - that was established today in our meetings, ... I think our players took hold of it and did a good job of practicing. It was a pretty fast practice, guys moving around where they were supposed to go.

We have to get these interest rate increases behind us and the Fed did hold off this last time, but I think there's still a possibility of another rate increase later in the year. And that's weighing on investor's minds. Earnings have slowed down a little bit. The interest rate increases to date have had an effect and we're seeing some earnings disappointments at some companies and that has investors concerned. But on the other hand, we have the mergers and acquisitions that tend to buoy up the prices in whatever sectors affected from one day to the next and that will keep investors interested in stocks certainly.

We have to find ourselves. We have to find what we are doing wrong. I think overall it's just penalties -- penalties here and there. We controlled the ball today like we were supposed to but, we don't have anything to show for it. If you don't have anything to show for it there is no use to hold onto the ball for 15-20 minutes with no points. That's what we have to work on, we have to finish. If we don't finish there are going to be long days ahead.

We have assigned the spaces and provided groups of tailgaters with the opportunity to park together. This guarantees groups of tailgaters the chance to park together without needing to hold parking spots. With additional signage added to the lots, finding your parking location is made easier, thus improving traffic flow inside the lot.

We have no objection at all that the three US officials visit us to give their assessments and hold an exchange on these matters,

We have no complaints with bottom-line earnings growth in what we've seen so far. The economy is going to hold together, earnings growth is going to hold together, the Fed's going to stop raising rates and that will give the market an opportunity to move forward.

What the Serb people really want to do is to be able to hold up their heads again and be a part of the new Europe. And this (Milosevic's arrest) is a step that needs to be taken to accomplish that.
