...Jedi until Lucas changed it weeks before the film's 1983 premiere because he felt Jedis do not seek revenge. Fans frantically clicked their digital cameras at a display case that showed the evolution of Darth Vader's costume - for this crowd, the nasty Sith lord's chest plate changing from green buttons to blue ones in between Episodes IV and V is as significant as Picasso changing from his blue period to his rose period. Those in touch with their dark sides rushed exhibits of tortured druids on a rack, Luke Skywalker's severed head and the Princess Leia...

...after Hurricane Katrina, and is likely to remain that way. And with a handful of local emergency rooms forced to pick up the slack, Charity's closure is putting a great deal of stress on an already overtaxed health care system. Hospital staff more accustomed to treating cuts and chest pains are dealing with severely mentally ill patients and hard-core substance abuse cases. A limited number of ER beds, needed for heart patients and diabetic emergencies, are filled with psychiatric patients who have nowhere else to go. And police and ambulance drivers are being tied up by long waits...
