Flickr Reveiw
I think the web site flickr is a great way for photographers to share their work with the public. It is also a fun way to connect with your friends and family. It is easy to upload photos and add photos to galleries. I think that the public domain has a positive effect on this site tho. For example people can see a photo they like, then visit that photographers site and purchase some for their own personal uses.

I.D Theft Power Point Response
I can not believe that I.D theft is the fastest growing crime in America! The other day we had Deputy Krupp come in and speak to my computers class. He showed us the different ways our I.D gets stolen and how to prevent it. He also taught us about online safety and not to give out are "ASL" (age, sex, location). People could use this information to find where you live and stalk you. I will continue to go online as always, just now I know somethings to look out for. I know not to click on links saying, "You have won a new iPad"! I now know to purchase items from the main site, this can reduce the chance of I.D theft and not to click on spam emails and entering any personal information. I found Deputy Krupp's power point to be useful, but most of the stuff he taught us seemed to be common sense.

MIT's Folding Car
The Massachusetts Institution of Technology has been working on a fold-able car! It is now being released in Europe now to test to see if the market fill succeed in this car. The electric car discussion is about to be pushed over the edge do to the invention of this car. The "Hiroko" will only take up about one third of the space compared to its gas powered counter part. The major downside with the car is that it only has a 75 mile range, not good at all for distance travel. http://mattforte.hubpages.com/hub/Future-Technology-2013

Christmas Break
This Christmas Break I did some fun things. My family and I went to Levis Commons for the first time and did some shopping for friends and family. On Christmas Day I opened my presents, this is what i received. I got A turtle Beach X11 Gaming headset, Beats by Dre Solo HD headphones, Jack Links Beef Jerky, and Mountain Dew Gamer Fuel Double XP for Halo 4. Later on Christmas I had a little get together with my grandparents and we exchanged some more presents. Then my dad and I used our saved up money to buy parts for our gaming computer that we are going to build! I used some of the money I received to buy video games via "Steam"(A pc gaming site).On New Years Eve we did not do much. We watched the ball drop, and then went to bed. Then the last day of Winter break had arrived.I did not want Break to end because I was having fun with my family and I did not want it to stop. That was what I did on my break.
