Materials & Dress Attire Getting Conference-Ready: Materials & Dress Attire Committee Materials It’s a common question, “What should I bring to a committee session?” While there may be some variation among delegates, here are the essentials: 1. At least two writing utensils (pen or pencil). 2. Yellow or white notepad for jotting down notes. Do OT bring a stack of loose-leaf papers in a folder. Having a notepad will make you look more organized; it’s also more difficult to lose in the conference bustle. 3. Folder, binder, or organizer to hold all your research. 4. Bag or a case to hold all these materials. If you can, try to bring a black briefcase, not a backpack. 5. Bottle of water. Sessions are usually long and continuous periods of speaking will tire out your throat. Remember, water , not soda! ***ote about laptops: FHSMUN permits the use of laptops among delegates while committee is in session only under the following circumstances: 1. During unmoderated caucuses. 2. Whenever expressly authorized by the Dais Staff. Attire: Dress to Impress Western business attire is the accepted standard for Model United Nations conferences. For girls , this means formal dress shirts and skirts or dress slacks or suits with nice dress shoes. For boys , this means formal dress shirts, dress slacks, dark dress shoes, and a tie . Suits are acceptable as well. As a rule of thumb, the more formal the dress, the better. Do not worry about looking over- dressed. Absolutely no t-shirts, shorts, jeans, flip-flops, sandals, or sneakers are allowed. .

  • The 8 Types of Shoes a Black Man Needs
    The 8 Types of Shoes a Black Man Needs Shoes. Kicks. What are you wearing? What do you rock? Here’s a secret: It’s a cliché that ladies judge men off the shoes they wear. But it’s still true. Most people’s eyes start at the top of your outfit and work their way down to the shoes you're wearing. Without the right shoes, your outfit isn't complete, no matter how much time or money you’ve invested in it. Everybody knows this. But what some people fail to understand is that going too far in the other direction is counterproductive & expensive. We all love shoes, but it can get really costly to adopt the latest fads, and this are no different. But don’t worry: I’ve narrowed it down to 8 essential types of shoes that black men need for any type of wardrobe. Once you’re done reading, you’ll be able to go out and get the ones you need without breaking the bank on expensive options. The Color Rule: A quick note about color to kick us off: The two colors of shoes that black men need in their wardrobe are the most common ones – brown and black. Those colors go with literally every outfit. Those shoe colors will never look out of place. One other color you want: White shoes as well - because they offer a visual effect that most other shoes simply don’t. (Keep the whites clean as you can!) So, if you’re adding new shoes to your closet and you want to keep it simple, getting shoes in brown or black will let you pull off simple color coordination without much hassle.

  • Drawing a Shoe
    Drawing a Shoe Drawing due to your art teacher on or before Friday, April 24th. What Will You Need? • What you will need: 1 shoe, a white piece of paper, a pencil, and a computer (or a phone) to view the video and examples. • Find a shoe in your house! This could be your shoe or a family member’s shoe. (The video provided will mention that you need a shoe with laces, but I don’t mind if you choose a shoe without laces, as long as it has a fair amount of other details.) • When choosing your shoe, you want to make sure the shoe has details to draw, so I’ve added some examples here. • Good examples: Sneakers, hiking boots, winter boots, dress shoes. • Bad examples: Flip flops or very basic ballet flats (not enough detail). Your drawing will be a contour line drawing. We start most drawings and paintings with simple contour lines that define the object that we are drawing, and the details contained within that object. The video on the next page is an example of an artist working in contour line- he defines the edge of his shoe and continues to the details as he works through his drawing. Drawing a Shoe: A Video! • Click here to watch drawing video • This is a great tutorial on how to draw a shoe from life. It includes great tips that will help you to set up your shoe and get started. Inspecting Your Shoe! • Look at the shoe from all angles, inspect the shoe with your eyes.

READING Oversleeping So Jake spread his arms, leaped skyward from the sidewalk, and began to fly, rocketing up over the neighborhood. Suddenly he heard the distant voice of his father calling, as if from another universe, and Jake pried open sleep-heavy eyes . “Get up, pal,” said Jake’s father, “or you’ll miss the school bus.” “Just let me sleep a little longer,” Jake mumbled. Then he groaned and turned over, pulling the covers up over his head like a tent, as if to somehow recapture his dream. Jake loved to sleep. It wasn’t that he was lazy or lacked energy. Jake was a normal fourteen-year-old kid in every way. But he loved to curl up under a soft white cloud of sheets, rest his head on a marshmallow pillow, and luxuriate in the twilight world of slumber where life is exciting and dreams always come true. So Jake was sitting at a table at Chez Maurice’s in Hollywood, having lunch with his buddy, Tom Cruise. Tom was offering Jake a role in his next movie when .

  • The Red Sneakers Effect: Inferring Status and Competence from Signals of Nonconformity
    The Red Sneakers Effect: Inferring Status and Competence from Signals of Nonconformity SILVIA BELLEZZA FRANCESCA GINO ANAT KEINAN This research examines how people react to nonconforming behaviors, such as entering a luxury boutique wearing gym clothes rather than an elegant outfit or wearing red sneakers in a professional setting. Nonconforming behaviors, as costly and visible signals, can act as a particular form of conspicuous consumption and lead to positive inferences of status and competence in the eyes of others. A series of studies demonstrates that people confer higher status and competence to non- conforming rather than conforming individuals. These positive inferences derived from signals of nonconformity are mediated by perceived autonomy and moderated by individual differences in need for uniqueness in the observers. An investigation of boundary conditions demonstrates that the positive inferences disappear when the observer is unfamiliar with the environment, when the nonconforming behavior is depicted as unintentional, and in the absence of expected norms and shared standards of formal conduct. Your sweats, PJs and flip-flops are losing you n both professional and nonprofessional settings, indi- money! .

Where should employers draw the line in the workplace? What grooming guidelines, if any, should organizations develop? When it comes to dress codes, what legal rights do employers and employees have? Are there any guidelines on religious dress? These questions and more are what employers and employees are asking everyday. With times quickly changing and as younger generations get older, norms and expectations slowly transform. Business attire five days a week has become more rare in the average workplace or agency. Young executives and managers are more liberal in there approaches to issues of this sort, making the term “dress for success” less stressful and more cost effective for the average person. Grooming Standards Personal "style" reflects a diverse workplace and often individuals with tattoos are creative individuals. However depending on his or her job, an employee's appearance may alienate customers.

August 19, 2010 Inside the Knockoff-Tennis-Shoe Factory By NICHOLAS SCHMIDLE A shopkeeper in Italy placed an order with a Chinese sneaker factory in Putian for 3,000 pairs of white Nike Tiempo indoor soccer shoes. It was early February, and the shopkeeper wanted the Tiempos pronto. Neither he nor Lin, the factory manager, were authorized to make Nikes. They would have no blueprints or instructions to follow. But Lin didn’t mind. He was used to working from scratch. A week later, Lin, who asked that I only use his first name, received a pair of authentic Tiempos, took them apart, studied their stitching and molding, drew up his own design and oversaw the production of 3,000 Nike clones. A month later, he shipped the shoes to Italy. “He’ll order more when there’s none left,” Lin told me recently, with confidence. Lin has spent most of his adult life making sneakers, though he only entered the counterfeit business about five years ago. “What we make depends on the order,” Lin said. “But if someone wants Nikes, we’ll make them Nikes.” Putian, a “nest” for counterfeit-sneaker manufacturing, as one China-based intellectual- property lawyer put it, is in the southeastern Chinese province of Fujian, just across the strait from Taiwan.

    5th Online Learning #1 ELA Subject: English Language Arts State: Ohio Student Name: Teacher Name: School Name: Read the article. Then, answer the questions. Sneakers! by Patrick Joseph Look down at your feet. What are you wearing on them? Odds are the answer is sneakers. Sneakers are everywhere. But how much do you know about this popular footwear? How were sneakers invented? What are they made of? And why are they called “sneakers” anyway? Rooted in Rubber The story of sneakers started about 500 years ago. That’s when European explorers in Central and South America noticed Native Americans playing with an unusual ball. The ball was made from a milky, white liquid that oozed out of the cahuchu (ka OO choo) tree. The liquid, known today as latex (LAY tex), hardened as it dried. Native Americans had practical uses for latex too. They spread the sticky liquid on their feet. Once it dried, it formed a very thin “shoe” that protected their feet from water. They also made waterproof bottles with latex. When explorers brought latex samples back to Europe in the early 1700s, scientists started searching for their own ways to use it. In 1770, an English chemist named Joseph Priestley discovered that the gummy stuff could rub out pencil marks. People dubbed it “rubber,” and the name stuck. The Right Stuff By the early 1800s, manufacturers in the United States and Europe had found many uses for rubber. They used the stretchy, waterproof stuff for raincoats, hoses, elastic bands, and more. But rubber wasn’t very good for making most things.
