	George Ord's Memoir of Thomas Say
		His father, Benjamin Say, a respectable physician and apothecary, was a son of the Thomas Say, of whom a marvellous account is extant, relating to a supposed trance, during a state of suspended animation.
		Say, aware of the importance of occupation, and not perceiving in his son an indication of a predilection for any of the learned professions, took him into his shop, the business of which was conducted for their mutual benefit.
		Say's having written so little of the habits and economy of the subjects of his papers, may be derived from the difficulty of expression, which all those experience who are not familiar with the rules of language, and the practice of good writers.

	Thomas won't rekindle White Sox criticism - Boston.com
		Thomas did say that his left foot is coming along fine and he hopes to be ready by April 1, when the Athletics host San Francisco in an exhibition game in Oakland.
		Thomas had already made it clear he wasn't happy about the way his 16-year run ended, claiming the White Sox portrayed him as an injured player even though he's fine, before he sounded off in an interview with The Daily Southtown of suburban Tinley Park, Ill., last month.
		Thomas began the year on the disabled list while recovering from surgery on his left ankle and finished the season there after breaking a bone in the ankle.

	THOMAS SAY
		Thomas Say was born in Philadelphia and, as a self-taught naturalist, at the age of 25 became a charter member of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia.
		Thomas Say accompanied William Maclure and other scientists and educators from Philadelphia on the famous "Boatload of Knowledge." The party arrived in New Harmony, Indiana, in January, 1826.
		Say was a taxonomist, as were most of the early entomologists, and he described considerably more than 1,000 new species of beetles and over 400 insects of other orders, including species in every important insect order.

	Thomas Say, Canis latrans
		Say's description of Canis latrans, along with the rest of his taxonomies, was published in 1823 as an annotation to the report compiled by Edwin James, who also served as a botanist and geologist for the expedition.
		Another specimen was destitute of the cinnamon colour, excepting on the snout, where it was but slightly apparent; the general colour was, therefore, gray with an intermisture of fl, in remote spots and lines, varying in position and figure with the direction of the hair.
		Major Thomas Biddle, brother of Nicholas Biddle, was to serve as journalist for the expedition.

	CSIndy: Doubting Thomas (June 8, 2006)
		The night before Thomas was fired, the board held its regular Wednesday meeting, where the superintendent vocalized her opposition to an initiative that her biggest detractors have been promoting for the past two years.
		But Christen says Thomas' comments were "indicative of her just not being on the same page as the board"— one reason he gave for voting her out.
		Thomas' detractors, she says, wanted her to mobilize on the site-based management program long before Wednesday's vote, and long before the program had the support of the board.

		Thomas was invited to be the keynote speaker for the bar group's annual convention by Louisiana Supreme Court Justice Bernette J. Johnson, chairman of the group's judicial council, who traditionally has chosen the speaker.
		Last year, however, after the Maryland NAACP protested a speech Thomas was to give at a youth festival in Delaware, the justice canceled his appearance to avoid a demonstration that he feared could spoil the event.

	St. Thomas on Sola Scriptura
		Thomas is commenting on John's peroration, "This is the disciple who bears witness concerning these things, and who has written these things, and we know that his witness is true.
		That is what he means when he says 'we know his witness is true.' Galatians 1:9, "If anyone preach a gospel to you other than that which you have received, let him be anathema!" The reason is that only canonical Scripture is a measure of faith.
		It is clear that Thomas is contrasting canonical and apocryphal works and saying that only the former have credence for Christians.

	Balkinization
		In saying that Thomas and Scalia aren't being consistent, I do not mean to suggest that O'Connor is. As Thomas correctly points out, her refusal to defer to prison administrators in Johnson is in tension with her deference to university administrators in Grutter.
		Is it not enough to say that the opinion is unconvincing or weak in parts rather than to lay on top of it the accusation of simply asserting their own policy preferences as constitutional principles.
		As Thomas points out, because the Court has turned away from it's well-settled Turner precedent here, the burden should be on the majority to explain how this is different from the First Amendment and due process and other constitutional issues that arise in prisons.

		But Thomas receiving it all dispensed it, going about the cities and the villages round about, distributing and giving alms to the poor and afflicted, and relieving them, saying: The king knoweth how to obtain recompense fit for kings, but at this time it is needful that the poor should have refreshment.
		And he ceased not to teach and to refresh the afflicted, saying: This hath the Lord dispensed unto you, and he giveth unto every man his food: for he is the nourisher of orphans and steward of the widows, and unto all that are afflicted he is relief and rest.
		And she began to say: [This description of hell-torments is largely derived from the Apocalypse of Peter] A man took me who was hateful to look upon altogether fl, and his raiment exceedingly foul, and took me away to a place wherein were many pits (chasms), and a great stench and hateful odour issued thence.
