  • MS Dress Code 2021-2022
    Webb School of Knoxville Code of Dress & Appearance Middle School, 2021-2022 The Webb Middle School uniform allows students to dress neatly and comfortably for the activities in which they engage during a normal school day. All students are expected to be in school uniform every day. We hope the student uniform will help diminish the sartorial competition and peer pressure that is frequent among younger adolescents. Webb’s Middle School is a place where students should be confident that they are accepted for their character and personality, not for what they wear. Special Update for 2021-2022: The formerly instituted formal dress uniform requirement for Middle School is suspended for this school year. Please see below for this year’s Code of Dress & Appearance. All uniform shirts must be purchased from the following providers: Educational Outfitters <http://knoxville.educationaloutfitters.com/find-my-school/webb-school-of-knoxville/> Tommy Hilfiger <http://www.globalschoolwear.com> Lands’ End <https://www.landsend.com/shop/school/S-ytp-xe8?cm_re=lec-_-global-_-glbnv-school-_- 20160525-_-txt> Shirts, pants, skorts, skirts, and shorts also must be purchased from Educational Outfitters, Tommy Hilfiger, or Lands' End. Approved items are located on the Hilfiger site under the Middle School menu; Educational Outfitters has a list of all approved Middle School uniform items. When purchasing uniform items, please consider that your child will probably grow during the school year. This is especially important for eighth graders, who sometimes have to purchase new clothing to meet the dress code with only a few months remaining in the Middle School.

English Language Studies, Sanata Dharma University Abstract Meanings are related to language functions. To comprehend how the meanings of a word are various, conducting componential analysis is necessary to do. A word can share similar features to their synonymous words. To reach the previous goal, componential analysis enables us to find out how words are used in their contexts and what features those words are made up. “Shoes” is a word which has many synonyms as this kind of outfit has developed in terms of its shape, which is obviously seen. From the observation done in this research, there are 26 kinds of shoes with 36 distinctive features. The types of shoes found are boots, brogues, cleats, clogs, espadrilles, flip-flops, galoshes, heels, kamiks, loafers, Mary Janes, moccasins, mules, oxfords, pumps, rollerblades, sandals, skates, slides, sling-backs, slippers, sneakers, swim fins, valenki, waders and wedge. The distinctive features of the word “shoes” are based on the heels, heels shape, gender, the types of the toes, the occasions to wear the footwear, the place to wear the footwear, the material, the accessories of the footwear, the model of the back of the shoes and the cut of the shoes. Keywords: shoes, meanings, features Introduction analyzed and described through its semantics components which help to define differential There are many different ways to deal lexical relations, grammatical and syntactic with the problem of meaning.

  • Katie Heller Shoes Makes Impact on Families…
    Katie Heller Shoes makes impact on families… REPORT REFERENCE: TGT 35051 Distribution was done by means of traveling to various Town, villages, and communities to distribute the Katie Heller Shoes to the needy kids. Along these distributions we were able to ask some parents of the kids whom benefited from the distribution; as to, why is it that Katie Heller Shoes so important for them? What benefit will they gain from wearing it? And what impact will it make on their lives? We carryout Katie Heller Shoes distribution at Jawejeh Town, located along the Bomi County Highway, mainly in the Po River’s area. This Town consists of more children, teenage mothers and more youth in general. Most people in this town survive my means of farming. The economic situation in this town is deplorable; they have no good road, and no better living area. Children in this town struggle to afford their daily needs (like that of, good clothes, shoes, proper education and food). On our regular donation at Jawejeh Town, we saw many kids with no shoes on their feet, while others had very old slippers. Some of them had torn up clothes also. The GCVMI-ICF Donation team, distributed some clothes, food and Katie Heller Shoes. During the Katie’s Shoes distribution, we give some children shoes, sanders, sneakers, etc… we saw that they were very happy, they never stop smiling. Their parents were also happy for such donation, they appreciated Katie’s shoes a lot. From right to left: SAM is wearing a red basketball shirt, BOIMA is wearing a big gray t-shirt with blue sneakers, CHRIS is wearing red t-shirt with his hands pointed up, PETER is wearing a red torn up t-shirt, while BOIKAI in wearing a blue t-shirt with sneakers in his hands pointing upwards and JEREMIAH is wearing a blue t-shirt with “number 2” writing on it.

About Us Those who know leather, also know the vital importance of decisions taken while choosing hides bearing the end product in mind. Making shoes is another story, altogether. The similarity between tanning of a hide and the making of a shoe is the deep personal involvement necessary to produce quality goods. Shoe making today, has evolved into a complex science from the art that it was until the middle of the last century. The traditional image of a Chinese workman bent over his last no more sits comfortably in the consumer's mind. Shoe-making has definitely become more complex and undoubtedly hi-tech. Natural skills and latest technologies for making comfortable and durable footwear are now seen as complementing and supplementing each other .One without the other is inadequate. A tour of the factory would reveal, to the discerning eye, all the ingredients to make high performance and aesthetically appealing footwear are installed and in-use. If full leather sole is needed the requisite technology is available. And if Genuine Hand-made Goodyear-welt and Hand- stitched down were sought the wherewithal to make them is also indigenous to the factory. A footwear expert will see a well-planned unit, housing advanced, versatile and painstakingly-maintained machinery, run by dedicated, skilled personnel, who obviously take pride in producing footwear that, as per their expertise, and their company's policy, should set industry standards.

    Footwear Guide I have been issued one (1) pair of Tan Combat Boots and one (1) pair Black Leather Low Quarters by the Tailor Shop. If I decide not to join the Corps of Cadets, I understand that I will be billed by the Virginia Tech Accounts Receivable Department for the boots and shoes. The amount will be $69.30 for the boots and $80.70 for the shoes. Important Notes: 1) Once boots and shoes have been worn, it is not feasible to swap sizes. Therefore, it is important that the sizes you have selected fit correctly. Replacements will be at the cost listed above. 2) Proper fit and break-in are required to prevent blisters during New Cadet Week and the start of classes. 3) If you return to school without the boots and shoes, they must be shipped next-day-air to you. The Tailor Shop does not have the inventory to lend boots and shoes. 4) Should you request to exchange size via mail, shipping charges will be added to your Accounts Receivable Account. This is just a sample. You will sign this form when you are issued your footwear.

  • Choosing Chemical Protective Footwear
    CHOOSING CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE FOOTWEAR Harmful chemicals pose a wide range of health hazards (such as irritation, sensitization, and WHY DO YOU carcinogenicity) and physical hazards (such as flammability, corrosion, and explosiveness). NEED SPECIALIST Employers with hazardous chemicals in their workplaces must ensure that they are labeled correctly, with safety data sheets easily accessible and that employees are trained how to handle CHEMICAL them appropriately. Training for employees must also include information on the hazards of the chemicals in their work area FOOTWEAR? and the measures to be used to protect themselves. The ideal way to protect yourself from any chemical is to keep well away from it; any other mode of protection is ultimately a compromise. For this reason, if elimination or substitution of the chemical are not possible, engineering and work practice controls are the preferred means to reduce employee exposure to toxic chemicals, where feasible. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is the least desirable measure but is highly effective when used correctly. Chemical protective footwear forms an important part of an overall PPE solution. Depending on the nature of the chemical and the exposure some or all of the following may be required to provide effective protection. • Chemical protective clothing This could be a single piece suit, or separate jacket & trousers and may incorporate a hood or even completely encapsulate the wearer if their breathing air is supplied by an air-line or breathing apparatus. • Respiratory protection This can range from a simple facemask respirator, to powered respirators or supplied air from breathing apparatus or air-line. If air is being filtered it is vital to check the efficacy of the filter against the chemicals to which the wearer is exposed and that there is sufficient oxygen in the atmosphere.
