For my top Career Cluster I got Law, Public Safety, and Security. Law, Public Safety, and Security is described as Law, public safety, corrections, and security workers are found in a variety of settings. For example, I might guard the public and enforce the law as a police officer or security guard. Or, you might provide fire protection as a firefighter.
Or, be a lawyer and work in the courtroom. To be in this career cluster you have to be able to work with people and be willing to help them. You have to be smart and know the law very well. to get the best jobs in the category you have to take 7 or more years of college. I do think that this career cluster fits me the best. I have wanted to be a lawyer for a while now and this is the career cluster for it.

Google Drive Wrap Up
I liked Google Drive overall. It's ability to save automatically was really the part I liked the most.I always end up losing parts of my documents because my computer freezes or I accidentally close out on Microsoft Word so that feature helped out a lot. I did not like that there was little choice in what you could do on the document or the power point. It does not have as many features or tools as the Microsoft versions. I did like being able to work with my partner on a single document. it lets you get the project done twice as fast and it makes it easier to collaborate. I think that Google could improve Google Docs by adding other types of documents like the many Microsoft has. Overall, the project turned out great. I had fun researching and making the presentation and the survey.

CNN Tech Article
There is now a possibility that your phone screen could be made of manufactured sapphire. Sapphire, being the second hardest material on the planet, would be 3 times as strong as the usual phone screens but will be 10x as expensive. Most phone screens are Gorilla Glass, made by the company Corning, which is usually $3 for a screen. The new sapphire screens will cost around 30 dollars each, but are expected to drop to around $20. Apple's Iphone 5 already has manufactured sapphire for the screen over the camera.

Online A Reflection
Technology is important because it connects people, makes people's lives easier, and lets people see things they would not be able to see without it. Technology has changed quite a bit over the past 5 years. Smartphones have become something that almost everyone has and most people cannot live without them. Computers have gotten faster and capable of more things. Video games and the way we get music has changed and Facebook has become a social media giant. I believe that technology will keep getting faster and more innovative over the next 5 years. As shown by motion detective devices like the Kinect for Xbox or the PlayStation Move, video games and smartphones will become controlled more by motion, than touch.
At school I use a lot of technology. I use computers in more than one class and use my Ipod and my phone to look things up when I cannot access a computer. I use my laptop at home to type essays and other school assignments. But at home I use a lot more technology. I use my laptop, Ipod, and my Xbox to play games. I use the TV to watch the news and other shows.
I will use some of the tools from Online A at home and in school. they will help me do things on the internet faster and better. I think that the RSS feed or iGoogle are the best for lifelong learning because you can connect to so many different News sites, Blogs or Sports pages with the RSS feed and with iGoogle. you would be connected to enough outlets to let you know almost everything important happening in the world. I will probably never use the Avatar, or Delicious again. I had fun creating the Podcast. it was cool to hear myself talking from the computer. My least favorite was the avatar/Voki, my character kept getting deleted and so did my audio, it got a bit annoying after awhile.
