Report On Nike's New Accomplishment

Nike's New Shoes

On the 21st of October, the day McFly and Doctor Brown arrived in the future. McFly and Doctor Brown, from the movie ‘Back To The Future’, time travel to October 21st 2015. Now it is the same date. People have been excited and some have even celebrated. Do you remember McFly’s shoes? Those sneakers that light up and look really cool! Well this year, Nike designer, Tinker Hatfield, has designed the exact same sneakers. However, these shoes are the REAL thing not just props you use in films.

These sneakers can tie its own laces, automatically!  Not only that, the Nike logo and heels light up! You do not even need to push a button, they light up automatically too! However, the shoes do have a battery that can last for a long period of time.

Once you buy the shoes, you have a manual that will help you tighten or loosen the grip.

This is not the first time Tinker Hatfield tried to invent these cool shoes. In 2011, he created the same shoes. Except there was one problem: They could not self-lace! The 2011 version looked just like the real ones and they would have been out of stores, if it wasn’t for the self-lace problem. Finally, in 2015, Nike has developed new technology that is better than the technology they had before. This new technology can now tie the laces automatically.

Another great feature of these new shoes,  it  comes with a manual that can help the person tighten or loosen the grip! Amazing technology!!

The actor who played McFly, Michael J. Fox has  the opportunity to wear the prototypes. Nike company announces that additional pairs will be available in 2016. However, the limited edition can only be bought in a via auction.

All the money they make will be donated to the Michael J. Fox Foundation Parkinson's Research. This may be good or bad news but there is even worst news: These sneakers will be expensive to most people so they may not get a chance to own one of these AWESOME new Nike shoes. Maybe Nike will find a way to make the cost affordable to people so we can also wear this fantastic flying shoes.

These shoes are one of the most amazing I have ever heard of! Too bad I can not own one, however, these shoes are worth having. They glow, they tie laces automatically and they are comfy! Nike has outdone themselves this year! Better go and get some yourself, these seem like shoes that everyone should have!

Stingrays Report!

Introduction:

Stingrays are quit large. All stingrays have a venomous barb at the end of their tails. Their pectoral fins are the fins that people can see. Though, the pelvic fin can not be seen sometimes.

Does it live in the deep part of the ocean?

Is it a threat to people or other animals?

Are they endangered?

Where does it live?

These baby stingrays live in oceans that have tropical climates. Baby stingrays enjoy swimming in shallow and warm waters. It does not live in the deep ocean. Not only do they live in tropical waters, they are also found in subtropical places.

To protect itself, baby stingrays camouflages like a chameleon.

Are baby stingrays endangered?

Baby stingrays are not endangered. There are many stingrays in the world. Although, there are some species of stingrays that are being threatened.

There are about 60 species of stingrays. Such as: Eagle Rays, Manta Rays and Electric Rays. That is only 3 types of species though. There are loads more.

Are they a threat to humans and other animals?

Stingrays aren’t really a threat to humans and other animals. They can be sometimes. The only time Stingrays become dangerous, is when they feel like they are being threatened. Some divers experience what it is like to be stung by a Stingray’s poisonous barb when they corner or trap a Stingray.

When do baby Stingrays grow up to a grown Stingray?

When baby Stingrays are born, they are fully developed already. Some people describe baby Stingrays as miniature adult Stingrays. I think that baby stingrays are already grown but it takes a few years to become bigger.

What do Stingrays eat?

Shrimp is what Stingrays mostly eat. Stingrays also eat clams, sea worms and small fish.

To find fish, Stingrays like to go up to the upper column of the ocean. They also enjoy eating animals that have a shell. Such as: Clams, crabs and Mussels.

Conclusion:

Stingrays are very interesting creatures. They may look gentle and harmless but if you ever try to go near it, they will be quite defensive and sting you. I believe that stingrays are a bit like people. The reason why is because they have some similarities to us. One, is the way they are born with little tiny feet. Another one is how they act. Stingrays look innocent but once you make it mad, it

will try to defend. That is the same as some people. Sometimes, a person is mad and the person who made them mad gets hurt. People and Stingrays are not that different.

Reflection On Mary's Song Of Praise

Mother Mary praised God with all her heart. She loved and thanked God for all the great things He did in her life.

In her song of praise, Mary compared the Humble and the Proud. She quoted ‘He has scattered the proud’, ‘He has put down the mighty’, ‘He has sent the rich away empty’, ‘He has exalted the lowly’, ‘He has filled the hungry with good things’. Mary may be saying very little things but Jesus Christ was speaking through his Mother.

She taught us that God can help those who need his help more. He will bless the poor with riches and will leave the rich with nothing. Which shows that God is the most kind and fair God and He loves his people very much.
