Its almost scary how much has been done in relatively so little time in the “Information Age” and its only just the beginning.  
 

The possibilities are unimaginable.  I thought it was a bit extreme when I read an Author C. Clarke sci-fi novel called, Light of Other Days in which people can send messages directly from brain to brain (some sort of brain to brain Internet) via a device that sends messages on a subatomic level.  Now it doesn’t sound so strange anymore (well, ok, its still strange but it seem possible now).
 

Here are some mind blowing articles about quantum entanglement:
 

Quantum Teleportation of data (actually it’s the instantaneous transfer of quantum states, but teleportation sounds cooler)
      The thing is that it has already being done:

Quantum Entanglement as an explanation for so called psychic phenomenon:
      Highly controversial as parapsychology is the “leprosy” of
      science.  Just a hypothesis but interesting:

Security Certifications: DoD 8570

For Government workers doing any kind of computer security/information assurance, the new regulation, DOD 8570 is a very important document.

DOD 8570, Information Assurance Training, Certification and Workforce Management, requires that all government workers (active duty, govt civilian and contractors) doing security work have a security certification. The DoD is really trying to crack down on security.

Among the top security certification that you can get are the CISSP and the CISA

Getting the top certs and then further specializing could give you the edge. For example, CISSP with an CISA (auditor) would cover a lot of ground as would a CISA and an IDS/C&A/Architecture specialists. It would really kick ass to cover ALL ground. This would not be difficult. Not sure if each specialization would require further certifications.

Includes: GSEC, CISSP, CISA*note: GSEC is $800 and difficult
