Retreat!

Our team is on retreat today, so in lieu of a Monday Round-Up we have a few news items to share from the weekend and, of course, the necessary bit of random trivium. Enjoy your Monday and we'll be back with the Round-Up next week.

• After the Senate hits the "dislike" button on a recent cybersecurity bill, President Obama considers an executive order.
• The conflict in Syria is intensifying - on the ground and in cyberspace.
• Are you, like Bobak Ferdowsi and Adam Steltzner of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, enamored of the star-studded universe? If your answer is a resounding "affirmative!" check out this awesome 3D Map of the Universe, which was created using a massive wide-angle optical telescope.
