Saber
Slayer Strikes Again!
~Rahi Taam~
Yet another victim has fallen
to the Saber Slayer. This makes 3 in the
series so far. When will this terror ever stop! The Slayer
uses a light saber. This is considered a very odd choice of weapon
since most people don't know what a light saber looks like much less how
to use it effectively as a murder weapon. We can only conclude that
the killer is someone with experience in the Jedi Arts. However, how can
this be? Haven't the Jedi pledged their lives to take care of us and
protect us? They are keepers of the Peace not made for murdering
innocents in their sleep.
In an
exclusive interview with the Jedi High Council Member, Jedi Master Mace
Windu himself stated that all avenues would be completely investigated to
make sure the perpetrator was not a Jedi. He assured me that it was
quite unlikely that this was a Jedi perpetrator. He also reiterated
that both Jedi and citizens alike will be investigated carefully for their
involvement in this case. In addition, Master Windu says the Jedi
Council has created a expert team to investigate the murders. Jedi
Master Qui Gon Jinn, and his Padawan (learner) Obi-Wan Kenobi will head up
the team. Joining the Jedi Investigation, to keep things entirely
impartial and accurate the Council has brought in the renowned death
investigator Ynana Kidul of the Azure tribe. The Team was
investigating the current murder scenes at the time of printing so we were
unable to reach them. More as this story
continues.
Upcoming Elections Account for Increased Security
~Rahi Taam~
With some very high level elections
approaching on Coruscant, the government assures us that all is being done
to protect us from the major fiasco that faced voters last time. The
last two elections had to be thrown out due to bribing and strong arm
tactics by the competing factions. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine has
personally guaranteed the freedom to vote for all those who wish to vote.
In addition to personal guards being increased at the polls, there will be
options available for those who wish to vote via holocomputer with a
special code that can easily be obtained from your registering to vote
with your local voter registration office. Contact your local voter
registration office for more details.

Should
Jedi Be Allowed to Marry?
The Unveiling of the Mysterious Monks Part I
~Rahi Taam~
We are starting a series
where we ask hard hitting, direct questions of our mysterious protectors.
The Jedi were kind enough to let us come to the Jedi Temple and answer our
questions, for that I am very grateful to Master Mace Windu. He was
wonderful enough to give me his time and effort. Some of the
questions may surprise you, but this is the way
they live and maintain their way of life. "Why
is it forbidden to marry? Isn't to love and be loved in return
the greatest gift any creature could ask for?" I asked. "Yes.
It is the greatest thing the Force can give us. However, with
love also comes responsibility. Our Knights are Keepers of the
Peace, sometimes going on dangerous missions, making enemies, or facing
many people's worst nightmares. It is not fair, nor loving to put
loved ones in positions they should not be in. We strive to protect
the innocent above all; that means our loved ones and any theoretical
children we would have as well. We cannot take that risk.
Secondly, a Knight must be focused 100% on what he or she is doing.
They cannot be focused on their injured or Force forbid a kidnapped family
member or child. In order to do their job they need complete
objectivity." Master Windu told me. "What
if a Jedi did fall in love? What about intimate relations? Would you
punish this Jedi?" I asked. "We
treat all Jedi equally. It would have to be decided on by the
council. Since intimate relations lead to entanglements often love
and marriage it is generally discouraged." He smiled somewhat sadly,
but he was adamant on the point. Next issue: Why do you carry
a weapon if you are peace monks? Watch upcoming issues of the
Courier for complete coverage of our in-depth coverage.

EYES
ON THE STARZ!!
~Kahtya Millions~
Our favorite boy is at
it again! The notorious yet always charming Bail Organa was out with
the ever beautiful Senator from Naboo, Padmé Amidala. The two have
been practically inseparable since the Senatorial Ball 2 months ago.
Is Romance in the air for these to
Political Power Houses? A joining of the Alderaani and the Naboo
would make for an interesting move in the senate. They certainly
would have lovely children. WHAT
DOES THE FORCE HAVE IN MIND FOR YOU?

a gift to have it. Temper your steel, and you will remain sharp. Water

all the colors of the rainbow. Finally the sees of turbulence are
over. You start to show calm seas and have the tranquility of a
small pond. Rejoice in the splendor of just flowing clear and clean
after the winter freezing and the disturbances you had recently. Wood

what you have. You are budding with ideas and passions. It is
time for you to flourish, relish in yourself and in your creativity.
Fire - If your birth Year was a 6 or 7 you burn with Passion for
everything. Take that passion and turn it into the biggest flames
you
can muster. You will be the leader this time round for all the
creative things you have been holding off on. Whether this is public
or a private passion, the Force is saying go for it! Earth

It is thankfully now time for renewal and growth. So long have you
spent waiting, it is time to be fertile and grow with ideas, and
creativity. Not to mention this time of year makes you want to do a
bit of Spring Cleaning. Re-do your home, clean out the cobwebs of
your mind, everything must be new and fresh and clean. Start over
