[RTB isn't an ordinary producer in the same way that The Darkness aren't an ordinary band. He and the band were introduced in Los Angeles, instantly bonded over a mutual love of rock and were able to start assembling the album together.] Roy Thomas Baker is a genius, that's all there is to say about it. ... It's been a privilege to watch that man work, his ear is perfect, his instinct fabulous.

Justin Hawkins

INDECISION, n. The chief element of success; 'for whereas,' saith Sir Thomas Brewbold, 'there is but one way to do nothing and diverse ways to do something, whereof, to a surety, only one is the right way, it followeth that he who from indecision standeth still hath not so many chances of going astray as he who pusheth forwards' -- a most clear and satisfactory exposition on the matter. 'Your.

John Brady

I was warned that Mr. Thomas and the Garden would launch a campaign to smear me, and I am not surprised, nor will I be, at any false and vicious accusations that they may spread about me and my family.

Bob Krizancic

This is my home turf. I'm from Worthington, my daughter plays junior varsity at Thomas and (Thomas coach Joe Abraham) and I are longtime friends. They were nice enough to extend an invitation to us.

We will likely see many state politicians giving speeches in honor of Dr. King, but many refuse to say anything positive in regards to Lee or Jackson. Some would degrade the memory of Robert E. Lee and Thomas J. 'Stonewall' Jackson because of modern race politics designed to divide people to give certain political factions an edge over their opposition.

Brandon Dorsey

I've been riding for a very long time, since I was five. I came here when I was eight or nine. When I came here there were some older girls here, and I saw them practicing with these jackets on. I always wanted one. When I was nine, Mrs. Thomas asked me if I wanted to be alternate for the team.

Thomas got her settled and jumping super. That's as firm a ground as she will run on, and it depends on the man above whether she will run again as I want her for breeding.

I didn't sign a pledge to Wendi Thomas. I took an oath of office, and I have a commitment to the constituents who I serve. That's who I make my pledge to every four years when I've been elected.

Jack Sammons

My money's on Thomas Kyd.

James Shapiro

We came out playing hard, we just committed too many turnovers. He (Thomas) makes a big difference. He runs the team. He hit some big clutch shots at the end.

I'm a big Steve Nash fan, have been since he's been in the league. I wanted to play with Amaré (Stoudemire) and Jimmy (Jackson, a Miami teammate). It was the fit and the opportunity to be alongside Kurt Thomas and Amaré. They made a great run, especially during the regular season. It definitely helped to have a great chance of getting out of the West and making a championship run.

Brian Grant

I think people are seeing Tyrus Thomas and thinking all of my players are like that, and I don't think they are.

Brie has personified St. Thomas soccer ever since she stepped on the field four years ago. She is a remarkable athlete and a joy to coach. I often say that even if Brie had not scored one goal, she would have been one of my favorite players.

Gary Finley

I think (Bittner) is a born leader and would do anything for the team. Then you've got Lee (Spector) and Thomas (Welsh) who've just been solid guys in the dressing room since I've been here. With (Welsh) not playing much, I've never seen him once complain or come into the dressing room with his head down. That takes a lot ... and I give him so much credit for that.

Rod Pelley

Bill Thomas turned his backs on America's working people to go home and raise money.

Anita Dunn

Thomas was the kind of guy who made everybody laugh.

Dwaine Carpenter

Roberts' weak assurances that he brings 'no ideology' and 'no agenda' to the court are similar to assurances made previously by other Supreme Court justices.

Vicki Saporta

Citizens of this city voted to build on a neutral site. ... That didn't mean putting it back on the Thomas Jefferson site.

Nick England did an admirable job. The kid that he wrestled had pinned by him before at the Thomas Worthington tournament (Feb. 4) and Nick lost by decision in the sectional.

Nick Burgess

Thomas is the team to beat in the league. They are playing solid baseball, putting runs on the board and getting solid pitching.

St. Thomas made a great adjustment in the spacing of their offense at the start of the second half. But I was really proud of our kids, because they recognized what was happening, and they made exactly the defensive adjustments they needed to make.

Dave Thorson

Thomas made birdie there and I thought, 'Here we go. It's down the stretch now'. But I've been in that position before and decided to just try and make my par at the last and let Thomas try and come at me. Fortunately it worked out.

Hennie Otto

[Another senior who should make an impact will be Thomas Graham, who will start at safety. Graham, a star on the Gridley basketball team, has not played football since his freshman year. He is] very quick and a hard hitter, ... He is a basketball guy...a heck of an athlete.

Tim Cox

Both (Williams and Thomas) are highly competitive, highly successful people. It's temporary noise.

The vote shows that a strong, unapologetic, judicial conservative in the mold of Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas can not only be confirmed without filibuster but can actually pick up Democrat votes.

Wendy Long

They just really outplayed us; they played a great game from start to finish. Thomas was just a dominant player. We started to make a run in the third quarter, and then they hit two 3-pointers. We chipped away, but those two shots took away any energy we had.

Patrick Moody

Bryan Thomas can change the game on either side of the ball with one play and on special teams. I think he's a heck of a football player.

Scott Schmitz

It was that little out every time they had No. 3 (Thomas) lined up outside. I told Warner to be ready.

Paul Mychalczuk

That never gets old as a coach. I know when (Thomas) goes to the mound he's going to throw strikes. There's never a question about that. And if you can do that, more times than not you're going to come out on the right side of things.

Mat O'brien

I knew I wasn't going to beat Thomas.

Lorie Harmon

St. Thomas More and Hot Springs are the favorites because of the quality of their athletes and coaching. However, I believe any team could be capable of winning.

Randy Nicholas

It sounds like the president has an interesting range of candidates before him. Which one of them he'll settle on no one knows, but we do know he has promised nominees who represent his judicial philosophy like Justices [Antonin] Scalia and [Clarence] Thomas. No president in recent memory has done such a great job of choosing jurists who are faithful to the Constitution.

Wendy Long

We expect Brittney Thomas to hit the 3-point shot; she is a good shooter. She provided us with a spark off the bench and defensive intensity.

Regina Miller

They did the whole Derrick Thomas tribute and had the airplanes flying over the stadium.

The two that jump out to me are Jason Morton's offensive rebounding work and Thomas Sander's offensive rebounding work.

Bob Mckillop

Now I am building up for the Thomas Cup.

Peter Gade

We decided to take control of the game. We weren't going to let the officials dictate the game, we weren't going to let (St. Thomas More) push us around. We just were going to go out and play.

Rob Hafer

It was important to get a lead on them at the start of the game because St. Thomas More is a very patient team on offense. They use a lot of the clock and we didn't want to fall behind them.

Donavan Deboer

Thomas Ryan was a reverse Robin Hood, stealing from the poor children in his district to line his own pockets.

Richard Devine

The president has made an excellent choice today which reflects his commitment to appoint judges in the mold of Scalia and Thomas.

Kay Daly

I have had the opportunity to observe that Jimmy also goes above and beyond what would be expected of a small town mayor. The time and effort that he had Britt Thomas, city manager, and others put into getting Southern Classic Food, the feed mill and Wal-Mart DC to locate in Brundidge was tremendous.

Jim Medley

I pulled my tee shot a bit left but it didn't deserve to be two feet off the ground in the middle of a bush. It's been a funny year with Thomas (Bjorn) taking an 11 in the last round at the K Club but I think it's safe to say that's one thing that will never happen again.

Barry Lane

It's fine if they read passages from the Constitution, the history of the country, biographies of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson--who the English, back in the era of the American revolution, accused of terrorism. But then these children who are willing to practice these same precepts and theories can be reprimanded for actually living the Constitution.

Nativo Lopez

Thomas is right there with them. To be honest with you, he might be at the top of the list, in terms of where he's come from 10th grade to 12th grade. What he's done in those two years is really a tribute to him working hard.

Mark Jula

We had the toughest draw of anyone in the tournament, but that's the way we want it. By playing top teams like St. Thomas Aquinas and Jenks, we're only going to get better.

Kristy Bush

Evidence shows that if she was in the house, then she would have to be aware of what was happening. Thomas and Bryant presented themselves as being married on several occasions. She had several personal items and clothing in the house.

Mark Price

Sen. (Craig) Thomas has had at least 17 years to promote that technology.

Dale Groutage

You can almost hear those trees talk. You can feel it, the history. When John Hancock, John Adams, Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson were signing the Declaration of Independence, this forest was already growing.

John Noel

I was thinking that I was gonna have, like, Jason Kidd or Chris Thomas star in the movie to play me.

Billy Campbell

We had a great effort by everyone. Thomas and Martinez each won two events and we had some good marks by our other place finishers.

Jake Winslow
