	New director at CMU Robotics Institute blends people skills and a passion for problem-solving
		Thorpe helped conceive the Navlab program in the 1980s and has guided the development of each of the autonomous vehicles -- "my children," he calls them as he points to their framed photographs in his Newell-Simon Hall office.
		The institute Thorpe inherits is widely regarded as the world's leading mobile robot laboratory, spawning ground of the first robot to explore an active volcano, championship robotic soccer teams, cars capable of autonomous highway driving, robotic nurses aides and robots for cleaning up the crippled Three Mile Island reactor.
		His mother, Eileen Thorpe of Chicago, always knew her eldest son was bright -- "What mother doesn't think that?" -- and good at math, but even she was struck by his ability to relate to people as she watched him work the crowd a couple of weeks ago at a CMU reception.

	Why can I NEVER find Roderick Thorpe's novel that Die Hard was based on? - The CHUD.COM Message Boards
		The terrorists don't speak English, and we don't encounter the "main terrorist" until Leland does, so the Gruber character is not extraordinarily well developed.
		Leland's also more emotional and a deeper character in the book.
		Other excellent Thorp cop novels are Rainbow Drive, Devlin, and River - forget SOTL or Red Dragon, in my humble opinion the latter is the best serial killer novel yet written.

	MILESAGO - Groups & Solo Artists - Billy Thorpe & The Aztecs
		While hardly an earth-shattering debut (a pedestrian beat-influenced song with tinny recording, dominated by Thorpe's reedy whine), the record garnered moderate notice on Sydney radio, and actually became a proper hit when it was re-released in the wake of The Aztecs' subsequent breakthrough.
		According to Thorpe, the band (at this time comprising he, Murphy, Warren Morgan, Lobby Loyde and bassist Paul Wheeler), was flying on LSD while hapless engineer Ernie Rose just let the tapes roll.
		Thorpe himself sees this as a pivotal moment in the development of Australian music, thanks to the promoters' decision to feature an all-Australian lineup, rather than relying on imported stars..

	Twisted (2004) - A Review by David Nusair
		It's that rare film that doesn't work on any level, from the acting to the cinematography to the story, and makes one wonder exactly what screenwriter Sarah Thorpe was thinking when she wrote it.
		It's absolutely the wrong note with which to start the story, and asking us to accept Ashley Judd as a cop with violent tendencies is absurd (it's the sort of thing an audience needs to be eased into, not slapped across the face with in the first scene).
		Simplistic, stereotypical characters populate this story (there's a smarmy detective who doesn't trust Jessica that's apparently been included just so he can respect her later) and their behavior always feels dictated by the labored machinations of the script.

		Ashley Judd and Leland Orser were destined to make a film together.
		Director Philip Kaufman (much better with period pieces such as "Quills") and writer Sarah Thorpe manage to cast suspicion on every single member of the cast except for one -- so you'd probably be an idiot if you didn't guess that one.
		Well, actually it can't be Cutler, either, because police officer Shepherd manages to punch his lights out in that first scene and drags him off to jail, where he serves as her Hannibal Lector-type mentor for the rest of the movie.

	CSULB Online 49er: v10n109: Uninsured may have hope
		The cost analysis of the plan was led by Kenneth E. Thorpe, chairman of the Department of Health Policy and Management at Emory University’s Rollins School of Public Health.
		Although a $7.8 billion tab sounds daunting, Thorpe suggested that the cost could easily be divided between the state government, which would pay $4.5 billion; businesses, which would pay about $3.2 billion; and individuals, who would pay $63 million.
		Bodaken, a seemingly unlikely advocate of universal health care, said that a one percent sales tax or a 0.7 percent hike in the state income tax could help pay for health coverage for California’s 6.6 million uninsured residents.
