Fortune (US) - Article from 2002 titled: Creative Financing: Deep Pockets or Darth Vader?  While there's no one-size-fits-all test you can use to determine whether you've found a deep pocket or Darth Vader who's out to suck you and your company dry, here are five warning signs that your investor could cause you trouble.

Guardian Unlimited (UK) - [1] Tony Blair had been expecting to get the same treatment during his visit to the States this week. George had promised him the congressional gold medal for chipping in on Iraq. Now, thanks to those pesky dossiers, the whole ceremony's been put off for the moment, leaving Tony to a humdrum few days of flesh-pressing and being told what to do by George.  To understand the political significance of this move, one must turn to Star Wars. The film ends with all our heroes, including the reluctant Han Solo (whose mercenary behaviour could not easily be compared to that of the Bush administration), receiving medals for bringing regime change to Darth Vader. Yet critics were everywhere.   Sure Darth Vader was a bad man, but claims that his Death Star would be capable of smelting a galaxy in 45 minutes seemed unsubstantiated. Off the record, Admiral Ackbar was briefing the EBC (Endor Broadcasting Corporation) that his intelligence had been sexed up by Lando Calrissian in order to sway public opinion. A million Wookiee march brought Tatooine to a standstill. Celebrities like that blue thing with the elephant nose from the Mos Eisley cantina took to wearing sloganeering T-shirts to gala openings. In the face of such pressure the rebels wilted, pulling the medal ceremony until "a later date".  Obviously rebel morale soon crumbled, the empire struck back, and the Jedi returned only to find a complete mess (and a brewing row over foundation space-stations). Pointers for the PM clear there are.

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.

Ohio Newspaper (US) - 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.

St. Petersburg Times (US 2000) - Headline: McCain puts his lightsaber 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."
Sun, The (UK) - London.  'Brit Empire Strikes Back'  'Obi-One ...

'  '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 Empire... O.B on Kenobi...hehee, pretty good!)

TheDream.com - 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"
