Review of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone "It just needs mare of

that creep through human veins bewitching the mind, ensnaring the senses') to
become the New Millennium's equivalent of Star Wars"
New York Post.com - August
8, 2004 - "For Brooklyn-born fencing stars Keeth and Erinn Smart, the
journey from New York to the 2004 Olympics began a long time ago in a galaxy
far, far away. Keeth, now 26 and a favorite to win a medal in Athens,
saw "fencing" for the first time in "Return of the Jedi" -
and liked recreating the movie's lightsaber battles with his friends, his dad,
Thomas Smart, told the Post. Erinn, now 24 , says she was "into
other things, like Barbie," but adds, "Keeth loved Star Wars.
I liked it, but I really just tagged along." These days,
fending is anything but kids' stuff for Keeth and Erinn. (also in Sports)

Justice Resnick depicted as Darth Vader Columbus, OH. Oct. 11 - Ohio Supreme
Court employees sneaked up to the third floor of the Rhodes Tower in Columbus
yesterday to get a peek at Justice Alice Robie Resnick standing in her
judicial robe brandishing a Star Wars light saber. Resnick was posing with the
toy for a photo crew from George magazine, which she said is preparing a story
on her re-election bid. Resnick, a Democrat, is being challenged by Republican
appellate Judge Terrence O'Donnell. Ohio G-O-P Chairman Robert Bennett has
launched what he calls the DARTH campaign - which stands for Defeat Alice
Resnick's Tax Hike. The slogan assumes that a 4-to-3 decision on school
funding that Resnick supported will lead to a big tax increase. Bennett's
attack led to an editorial cartoon in the "Cleveland Plain Dealer"
depicting her as Star Wars villain Darth Vader, and that prompted George to
suggest the photo shoot.

away/ His battle against Darth Vader over, the former candidate arrives in
Philadelphia ready to help the party and support Gov. Bush. Highlights:
Back in February, Sen. John McCain portrayed himself as Luke Skywalker,
fighting the Evil Empire of the Republican establishment. When McCain
spoke of Darth Vader, many people believed he was referring to Texas Gov.
George W. Bush. But that was a long time ago, in a state far, far away.
On Saturday, Luke Skywalker was singing the praises of the Empire.
McCain said the Star Wars references were all in fun. "No,
I'm not campaigning for Darth Vader."

London. 'Brit Empire Strikes Back' 'Obi-One ... Queen brandishes

Star Wars film - as she brandishes a "lightsaber". ' 'The
baton - designed for the 2002 Golden Jubilee Commonwealth Games - was
presented to Her Majesty yesterday at Buckingham Palace. ' 'Onlookers
chucked at the baton's similarity to the futuristic weapon from films
including The Empire Strikes Back. ' This one's a joke: 'Maybe the Queen
could use it to bestow an OBE-Wan Kenobi.' (OBE = Order of the British

1998 Article May the Force Be With You
- "Is there proof of Global conscious?" "Since 1998,
Electronic equipment has been recording 'disturbances in the Force' as the
Star Wars movie character, Obi-Wan Kenobi might say. Obi-Wan was the
Jedi Knight who tutored our hero Luke Skywalker, in the 'ways of the
Force.' Throughout this epic science fiction movie Luke learned how the
Force could be used for constructive or destructive purposes. Now,
modern science experiments indicate that large numbers of people who have a
common focus do, in fact, radiate an energy force that influences physical
reality" Other headlines in the article: "Wisdom of the
Jedi Knight" and "A Disturbance in the Force"
ESPN.com -
"What better script
could you imagine?" Arizona pitcher Brian Anderson said. "Roger
Clemens and all he's accomplished and the year he had. Schilling and all he
accomplished and the year he had and the fact that Clemens played such a key
role in Schill's development as a pitcher. "It would be like
Obi-Wan Kenobi going head to head with Luke Skywalker."

Sagittarius - The Sun is in Sagittarius, the Moon is going from
Leo into Virgo. You're a Jedi knight, deflecting every enemy blow, bounding
out of reach, popping up when least expected. You're too quick for anyone to

Dutkowsky discouraged by a maturing industry? On the contrary, he was gushing
with enthusiasm at the prospects for the technology industry and its road
ahead. Why wouldn't he be? IT budgets are loosening and bleak financial
forecasts are seeing some sunshine as companies are seeing profits return.
Dutkowsky may as well have been Luke Skywalker as he strode from the podium in
Denver-because the Force was with him."
