Nike Unveils Marty McFly's Iconic Power-Lace Shoes On 'Back To The Future' Day

Nike Unveils Marty McFly's Iconic Power-Lace Shoes On 'Back To The Future' Day

The fans of Back to the Future has waited till October 21,  2015 to see

what would happen.  They have been wanting another back to the future movie! What happen to McFly’s children yet to be born?

Nike has released a shoe that is in the movie back to the future. It is quite different from the shoes in the movie because all the technology is inside the shoe.  The shoe glows like Marty McFly’s in the movie but it is better and it glows better. The shoe does its laces itself when it senses the feet.

This shoe is not the first of all. There was one in 2011 and it was also the same look and it was made by Nike. However it did not tie its laces by itself but the maker changed the features now in 2015.

The first pair of the Nike shoes went to the actor of Marty McFly. His real name was Michael J. Fox. The nike company is planning to release additional pairs in 2016, next year. If you will get the shoe it will be very expensive. The price will be around  $10,000 or probably more.

Chromebooks

Chromebooks

Do you think having the chromebook helped you in learning?

A chromebook helps me and gives me a lot of information whenever I research on  it. I find out lots of things by searching things up in the internet.

What new learning did you experience in working with the chromebook?

I learn to use new applications like video notes and sketch pad. I also learn to use animations in power points, in google docs and in google drawing.

I learn how to use book trailer websites too.

Syria's Exodus

 

Syria's ExoduS

What is happening to Syria? Why is ISIS attacking Syria? Why are Syrians fleeing away from their country?  Syria is in a civil war with ISIS fighting as well. ISIS is a terrorist group of Syrian people that are Muslim. The ISIS are also beheading people that don’t listen to their demands.

The people in Syria have to escape Syria because of ISIS. ISIS is making the Syrian’s leave the country so they can take over Syria.    This is called a civil war. Civil war is when you fight their own people. ISIS is doing that to Syria. Children are suffering because of this civil war. The children have to survive their long Exodus. The children suffer most are; the babies and the toddlers. This can be a crisis because the ISIS can dress up like a Syrian refugee and start killing people when they are in the other countries. That's why some countries won’t  accept Syrian refugees.  

The Syrians are fleeing away to get away from the civil war. They are fleeing away from Syria in ferries, trains or even just walking! The Syrians are crossing the borders by walking into the countries like; Germany, Austria, Greece, France,  Belgium, Hungary and most of the countries in Europe. The refugees of Syria also take ferries to go to the borders of the other countries. They catch trains and most of them go to Germany. Most of them are going to Germany because the Germans feel guilty of killing heaps of Jews, so they are taking in lots of Syrian refugees.

This is a big issue to these other countries where Syrians preferred to go. They provide them home's, security, food, education and jobs. Will they be able to provide them ?  So if you don’t want them to travel please defeat ISIS.
