What is the Costume Reference Library?
To describe the costume reference library, we first have to give an overview of the costuming organization of the club.
- Costumes in the 501st are grouped into categories (TK for stormtroopers, CC for clone commanders, etc...).
- These costume categories are then grouped into detachments, each representing a collection of members passionate about that particular set of costumes.
Each reference guide contains pictures of the costume, a detailed description of the parts, and requirements for 501st membership. Below you will find a list of detachments and the costumes they manage. To find out more about building the costume, click on the detachment's visual guides link. Please be aware that this project is constantly growing and evolving. Check back often to see the latest entries!

1,344 apartments for rent near Minneapolis, MN
Apartments in Minneapolis, MN
Guide to Minneapolis
Minneapolis Apartments For Rent
Stroll through Minneapolis and you'll discover a wide tumble of water over a steep limestone cliff to a hidden pool beneath. The force of the waterfall causes a misty spray to rise above the tree line, and it's almost like stepping back in time to a wild and uninhabited land. From there, you might stumble upon a lush, green park with a giant spoon balancing a red cherry. This fanciful sculpture looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland – after drinking the shrinking potion. Surrounding the park is a busy city skyline with towers of glass and steel rising into the blue sky, a picture-perfect cityscape with a busy downtown hugging both sides of the mighty Mississippi River. And don't be surprised if you also discover one of the largest malls in the nation, complete with indoor roller coasters and an ice skating rink – a shopper's dream come true.
Minneapolis is as offbeat as it is beautiful. From the awe-inspiring Minnehaha Falls to the Walker Art Center sculpture garden (home of the cherry and the spoon), Minneapolis offers a unique and often fanciful setting. And since it continues to attract many new residents due to its strong economy and the 50,000 or so students attending the University of Minnesota every year, Minneapolis apartments are in high demand. If you're ready to start searching for an apartment of your own, get the facts about life in Minneapolis before making the move.
Things to Do in Minneapolis:
The City of Lakes provides a gorgeous landscape. Start at Minnehaha Park, one of the state's oldest parks and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This park has 193 acres to explore and is divided into two parts. The section above the falls is a more typical park, while the lower section is left in its wild, natural beauty. The park contains an off-leash dog park, a visitors' center, bike rentals, a wading pool, a bandstand, a playground, and a restaurant.
Minnehaha Park is part of Minneapolis' Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway, a group of Minneapolis parks linked by roads for cars and pathways for pedestrians and bicyclists. In addition to Minnehaha, the Downtown Riverfront, the Mississippi River Gorge, Theodore Wirth Park, Northeast, Victory Memorial, and the Chain of Lakes. The Chain of Lakes was once described as "a necklace of diamond in settings of emerald." The lakes include Lake Calhoun, Cedar Lake, Lake Harriet, Browning Lake, the Lake of the Isles, and Lyndale Park. The parks include lakeside paths and historic markers, while other parks have unique features, such as Lake Harriet's gardens, band shell, and nearby bird sanctuary.
Minneapolis also has a number of historic parks. Be sure to visit historic Fort Snelling, a former military outpost that was built in 1820. Indian Mounds Park features six prehistoric burial mounds that overlook the Mississippi River. The Hopewell people constructed the mounds 1,500-2,000 years ago. The park, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, includes a playground, picnic areas, paved trails, tennis courts, and a ball field.
If museums interest you, be sure to visit the Walker Art Center. This contemporary art museum is considered one of the top five museums in the country for modern art. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, a free non-profit museum, has a collection of art from around the world, from ancient to modern. The Mill City Museum is located in the ruins of the Washburn "A" Mill and includes Mill Ruins Park. The mill dates back to the 1870s and is a US National Historic Landmark. The museum also includes work by local artists. The University of Minnesota is home to the Weisman Art Museum, which features special exhibits, programs, and a huge art collection. The museum is a campus landmark – the modern, steel building was designed by famous architect Frank Gehry.
The Guthrie Theater is a fantastic place to visit and catch a performance. The award-winning regional theater includes two main-stage facilities, a black-box studio with flexible seating, a 178-foot bridge to the Mississippi, and outdoor murals. The theater also includes a coffee bar, a café, a lounge, and a learning center.
The Minneapolis Convention Center is one of the largest convention centers in the upper Midwest. It hosts sports events, performing arts, concerts, festivals, and special events. The convention center is located downtown, not far from Nicollet Mall, a pedestrian shopping and dining district that covers 11 blocks. Nicollet Mall is the location of the summer farmer's market, parades, and special events.
Sports fans will enjoy cheering on the NFL's Minnesota Vikings, who play at the Mall of America Field at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. The Vikings are part of the NFC North Division. For those who prefer basketball, the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves play downtown at the Target Center – and so do the WNBA Minnesota Lynx. Baseball fans can cheer for the legendary Minnesota Twins at Target Field, which was once called the best stadium in North America by ESPN. Of course, once you rent an apartment in Minneapolis, it is a requirement that you become a hockey fan (just kidding … but Hockey and Minnesota just go together). You'll be able to cheer for the NHL's Minnesota Wild in nearby St. Paul at the Xcel Energy Center.
College sports are huge in Minnesota! The University of Minnesota is the country's fourth-largest university. The Minnesota Golden Gophers football team is part of the Big 10 and play at TCF Bank Stadium. Minnesota frequently hosts national events such as Frozen Four and March Madness. In addition to TCF Bank Stadium, you can cheer on the basketball team at Williams Arena and the hockey team at Mariucci Arena. Go, Gophers!
If shopping is more your sport, get ready to shop until you drop! The Mall of America is huge. Head to the neighboring Bloomington, just 15 minutes from downtown Minneapolis and you'll be at one of the world's favorite tourist destinations. The mall has 520 stores, 50 restaurants, the country's largest indoor theme park, Nickelodeon Universe, the Sea Life Minnesota Aquarium (featuring 10,000 sea creatures), a flight simulation center, and Moose Mountain Adventure Golf, an 18-hole miniature golf course.
Minneapolis has 17 farmers markets and fantastic downtown shopping. Stroll the Nicollet Mall, a 12-block pedestrian-friendly strip filled with stores and restaurants. Also, be sure to go shopping at the North Loop, a funky historic neighborhood filled with a variety of trendy shops and restaurants.
What to Consider When Moving to Minneapolis:
Minneapolis isn't just a pretty face – although the emerald green landscape dotted with sparkling blue lakes is spectacular! Minneapolis is one of the most popular cities among young professionals for good reason – the University of Minnesota, for starters, but also the robust economy with several Fortune 500 companies located downtown. Minneapolis was also named one of the best cities for singles by Forbes Magazine. If you are one of those singles, be sure to check out apartments in the Warehouse District – home to great restaurants, trendy bars and nightclubs, and hip nightlife.
When looking at Minneapolis apartments for rent, be aware that this city has a variety of communities and neighborhoods. Each is different, so concentrate on those neighborhoods that fit you best. Calhoun Isles contains the Uptown business district, Lake Calhoun, and the Lake of the Isles. While this community is considered affluent, Uptown is favored by college students and young adults for its nightlife.
North Minneapolis (NoMi) is a diverse area that consists of several smaller neighborhoods, including Near North, Jordan, Hawthorne, Harrison, and Sumner-Glenwood. Central Minneapolis is where the action is – move here if you prefer a high-rise apartment in the heart of downtown. In addition to Downtown, Central also contains the Warehouse District (known for its hip nightlife), Elliot Park, Loring Heights, and Loring Park.
Northeast Minneapolis is filled with artists, art galleries, and studios. The neighborhood also hosts "Art-a-Whirl," an art crawl held in May. University is a community that includes the University of Minnesota, Nicollet Island, the West Bank, and the historic Prospect Park. University also contains Dinkytown, a student-oriented area that contains historic fraternity houses.
Why Minneapolis Apartments Are Hot:
Beautiful lakes, crisp mornings, a stunning waterfall, and emerald green parks create a stunning location. But that's only part of what attracts people to Minneapolis. Named one of the top "cool cities," Minneapolis offers terrific outdoor recreation including biking, cross-country skiing, picnicking, swimming, fishing, boating, and ice skating.
Minneapolis is home to 30 theaters, about 60 museums, two orchestras, an opera company, 20 dance troupes, and 10 sports teams. It also offers a pedestrian-friendly downtown with eight miles of glass-enclosed skyways, terrific shops and restaurants, and a beautiful view of the river. And while it is considered a hip and cool city for young adults, Minneapolis is also very family-friendly. With attractions such as Nickelodeon Universe, the Minnesota Zoo, Bunker Beach Water Park, Como Park Zoo, Como Town, Ice Castles, and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum to enjoy, not to mention the city's 180 parks, family fun is everywhere! Claim this cool city as your own – rent an apartment in Minneapolis now!

CUSACK, PETER: Baikal Ice
In 2004 Peter took a field trip out to lake Baikal to record the ice breaking up (it's a dramatic annual event) and to make an aural document of the environs (port, jettys, generators, the trans-siberian express, settlements &c.). These are beautifully recorded sound-in-time snapshots, with excellent visual co-documentation. Such works belong nowhere and begin to constitute a new genre; this is one of the pioneering works in that genre.

Skitch is a fantastic tool for annotating images. It enables the user to precisely point to features of interest and add text. There are many ways this could be used. One instance is like the image above where I have added key questions to an image. This provides more focus than merely presenting a blank image and prompts discussion. Following on from this, I have given learners the blank background image and asked them to annotate theirs by answering the questions. Alternatively, a teacher could present a blank image and ask students to identify the key features and annotate it live, based on students feedback. Although this could have traditionally been done by projecting an image and annotating it using a whiteboard marker, the great thing about Skitch is that all of that great feedback is not lost: it's stored in a clear way which can then be distributed to students as a point of reference.

"These days, very little comes out of Hollywood without special effects added in post-production. Our favorite superhero movies, science fiction thrillers and fast-paced action movies just wouldn't be the same without them. However, these video effects are no longer the preserve of video professionals. Technology has advanced quickly, and you can now replicate these very same effects to make photos and videos come to life on your iPad. Here's how."

Google has just introduced "Collections", for Google+, a new service which allows any Google+ user to group his posts by topic and to create public, shareable collections of his favorite links, articles, videos and images.
To use Google Collections, simply go to your G+ profile page and then select "Collections" on the drop down menu appearing on the top left part of the page.
"Each collection can be shared publicly, privately, or with a custom set of people. Once you create your first collection, your profile will display a new tab where other people can find and follow your collections."
You can either create new posts containing whatever type of content inside a collection, or assign an existing, published post to a collection you have just created.
You can create as many collections as you like.
Google+ Collections is available on the web and on Android (iOS coming later).
My comment: Google+ Collections adds opportunity for creating additional value to G+ users by letting interests drive community engagement. This is a feature that sooner or later any social network will offer.
Free to use.

The research focused on four central themes in order to evaluate the overall effectiveness of these devices in assisting with learning, and was carried out by researchers from the Technology Enhanced Learning Research group at the Faculty of Education at the University.
1. Impact of tablet devices on teaching and learning generally The study found that benefits included greater motivation, engagement, parental involvement and understanding of complex ideas.
2. Leader and management issues (stemming from a deployment of devices) The study found that teachers are 'equally engaged' by the use of such a device, which has a low learning curve enabling them to use it immediately as a teaching tool and a learning tool for themselves.
3. Professional development of teachers and how teachers cope with using new technology The research found that 'use of the device is contributing to significant changes in the way teachers approach their professional role as educators and is changing the way they see themselves and their pedagogy'.
4. Parental engagement The study showed that parents become more engaged with the school and their child's learning when the iPad travels home with the student.

Michigan basketball coach John Beilein agreed to a three-year extension last week that will keep him in Ann Arbor through the 2018-19 season. (John T. Greilick/Detroit News)
Ann Arbor � John Beilein has thought about retirement, sure.
But if you ask the 60-year-old basketball lifer now whether he�ll finish his nomadic coaching career at Michigan, he can honestly give you the same answer he gives blue-chip recruits. And the same answer, not coincidentally, he gets from many of those same high school players when he asks about their interest in the Wolverines.
Of course.
�This was big,� said Beilein, who last week agreed to a three-year extension at Michigan that�ll run through the 2018-19 season
This was no big surprise, mind you. Not after Beilein led Michigan to its first Final Four appearance in 20 years last spring and fourth NCAA Tournament berth in five years after a 10-year drought.
But, Beilein turned 60 in February, he never has been at a Division I program longer than five years and, yes, stability still is part of the recruiting pitch, even in the here-today, gone-tomorrow world of college basketball.
�Just looking at the long range, they want to see who�s gonna be coaching,� said Beilein, fresh off a two-week trip overseas with USA Basketball at the World University Games, where he learned to give thanks in Russian (�Spasibo�), served as an assistant for the first time in his career and shared a dorm room with � talk about strange bedfellows � South Carolina coach Frank Martin. �So it�s important � it is important.�
Not nearly as important as the exposure Michigan enjoyed last season, rising to No. 1 in the national polls for the first time since the last time Chris Webber was allowed to be associated with the program, and then advancing to the NCAA championship game in Atlanta.
Positive exposure
Beilein�s not allowed to talk to recruits on the road at the moment � rules are rules � but on the phone, it�s an easy conversation starter: Did you see us in the title game?
�The (response) is, �Of course,� � Beilein said. �Are you interested in Michigan? Of course.�
It�s a far cry from the recruiting chore when Beilein first arrived in 2007, amid considerable skepticism about both the program�s standing and his own ability to raise that profile. One of his favorite anecdotes � he can laugh about it now � has to do with his very first recruit, Ben Cronin, who asked Beilein, �Was Michigan ever good in basketball?�
�Because he�d started watching (ESPN�s) �SportsCenter� in 1999 or something,� Beilein said, �and that�s when we went into a little hiatus from postseason play.�
A little hiatus is a polite way to describe the decade that preceded his tenure. But the fact that Michigan�s coach no longer has to talk about it � and the fans don�t, either � at least partly explains why athletic director Dave Brandon made it clear Beilein can stay as long as he likes.
�I wouldn�t say there was any big negotiations,� the coach said, adding that his athletic director�s only real question to him after the season was, essentially, � �How long would you like to do this?� �
Six years?
�At least,� said Beilein, whose $2.45 million annual compensation package puts him on a par with Wisconsin�s Bo Ryan behind the Big Ten�s top three � Tom Izzo (Michigan State), Tom Crean (Indiana) and Thad Matta (Ohio State).
�Obviously, I love what I�m doing right now,� Beilein continues, �and who knows where this all goes.�
Humble origins
Tuesday, I asked him if he remembered how much his first coaching job paid. I was pretty sure he knew the answer, and I was right. In fact, Beilein sounded like he still has the pay stubs at home.
�I was paid $7,900 at Newfane High School, teaching five different prep (courses) and coaching football, basketball and baseball,� he said, smiling.
His first college job at Erie Community College in upstate New York paid him $12,000 in 1978, �and then I got a big bump to $22,000 at Nazareth (College).� He finally struck it rich a decade later with his first Division I job at Canisius, where he earned $50,000 and no longer had to drive his team to road games in a passenger van.
�And you know what?� Beilein said. �I was blessed for every opportunity all the way along the line.�
This last one, though? Well, he�s happy to say it�ll be the end of the line.
Eventually, of course.
