Throughout my life, people have often remarked that I resemble certain individuals, ranging from famous actresses to everyday passersby. However, as I went through puberty and my features started to mature, people around me began to see a familiar face as they looked at me. It's someone very close to my heart—my late grandmother, Lola Carda. During family gatherings that I scarcely attended, I'm either told how much I've grown or how much I resemble my grandmother. My oval-shaped face, high cheekbones, tall nose, and even mannerisms reminded them so much of her.

Two disturbing incidents roiled the cyber seas last week, one foreign and one domestic. They both strengthen the case -- which was already convincing, and which I have been making for almost a decade now -- for the creation of a US Cyber Force.The first incident was yet another cyberattack on a NATO member, Albania, by Iran. It was part of an ongoing Iranian campaign to attack Albania, a small Muslim nation of only about 3 million in the Balkans. The attacks have included zeroing out personal bank accounts, unmasking government and police informants, and degrading command-and-control networks.
