Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
to demonstrate that picking out costumes is more than picking out clothes AND to demonstrate all the different things a costume can say about the person
Don't know of anything online or helpful on short notice, sorry, but what this brought to mind was two of Robert A. Heinlein's YA books, Double Star and Citizen of the Galaxy.
I remember bits from both about how small changes in appearance, attitude, and costume can effect big changes in perceived role and status.
The iPod "Mega Helmet" was made by duct-taping a loud Radio Shack megaphone to an old motorcycle helmet, allowing its wearer to broadcast their taste in music to everyone in earshot. It also includes a microphone in the chin strap.

Hm. this might be helpful. Maybe if I have time, I can do a dress form with a black suit and change ties, shirts, etc to demostrate different people.
Also, I think what I am going to go with is having them choose a character from one of the two plays we did this semester. I really didn't want to, because I didn't want them to be influanced by the design already done, but I think it is going to be the easiest to do.
I think the thing about e-coli is that it likes to live on the surface of meat. So if you're cooking a steak rare, it's fine, because the putside and all the nasties are getting sizzled. With a burger though, stuff that used to be on the outside gets all mixed into the middle, so if you dont cook it right through then the bacteria can still be thriving in the middle
That is my understanding as well.

Me too! although I missed it last night because housemate wanted to watch an Angel. We've beeng going through all the Buffy/Angel in order for months now and haven't had a chance to watch an ep in weeks and weeks.
I like that he's still adding stuff to the list as well as crossing stuff off.
Nilly, I'm able to force the food better now, since I'm only nauseous in waves.
Time to compose (yet another!) can't drive this morning e-mail to the manager. God, I'm a delicate flower.

You could also choose something big and classic - like Midsummer's Night's Dream, because it's possible to do the show with everyone in the same base costume, and then to indicate class and role by draping, accessorising, etc. Romeo and Juliet works too, if it is boy-skewed.
They've also been rerunning blocks of Earl on Saturdays a couple of times. So you can have an Earlathon!
I've always liked Jason Lee and find that he's pretty cool even with the facial hair. But my Sekrit Boyfriend is Randy -- the Niles to Lee's Frasier. And next week? Beau Bridges guest-stars as their father, which I anticipate will be Comedy Gold (Pooh Case Intentional).
