"As we move toward the third generation of family being considered for employment within the company, we are drawing on all the resources we can to make sure this is done in the most effective way possible. In my mind, CAFE is like a portal to understanding - a gateway to all of this invaluable literature and background information. With so many of the issues that you come across in a family business there isn't one clean-cut answer – you have to draw on a number of resources when looking for solutions. One of the most important things CAFE did for me personally was provide me with the opportunity to network with other business owners and in the process realize that there were so many sources of information available."

"It was great for our family to have confirmation from the Association that we were on the right path with our succession plan and had a firm foundation for further growth.Membership in CAFE has really helped us as a family business, especially considering that I am the only child actively working in the business. Advice from CAFE has meant that we have incorporated useful elements and made some improvements to our existing succession plan – all of which has seen the whole family being more involved."

"I have been a member of a CAFE Personal Advisory Group and found it really interesting. I was surprised to hear so many other family businesses face the same problems and successes that we do. Being involved in CAFE put our antennas up with regard to the succession issue. Hearing other people's stories about the process of transitioning company ownership has been really beneficial in helping us make sure we're on track with our planning."
Regina Auto Body
Regina Chapter
"We have attended a number of CAFE courses on succession and while we don't have our plan firmly in place yet, CAFE has helped us realize that we actually do need a plan! The fact that succession planning has been discussed by our family at all would not have happened without CAFE. Our family will definitely call on CAFE resources when the time comes for us to finalize our strategy."
Gallagher's Garage
Ottawa Chapter
"CAFE has helped myself and my siblings to complete our succession plan. Our business was originally founder-based when we joined and is now well into the second generation. The programming and introduction to experts helped us avoid many pitfalls during the transition. CAFE has been an important partner in assisting our family succession planning which is now involves the third generation."

"The value we have obtained from being a member of CAFE has been immeasurable. We have benefited from improved family communication and understanding. Joining a PAG has allowed me to learn from others in similar positions."

"Over the past 10 years, CAFE has consistently provided my family with the information, knowledge and resources that helped us avoid difficult situations, overcome challenges as they arose, and empowered us to have the confidence to make tough decisions going forward. The time we have committed to attending CAFE events as a family has paid for itself time and time again. We are passionate supporters of the organization."

"The importance of family business in the local, national and international economies cannot be understated. I am proud to have been part of the team that brought CAFE to Victoria and I remain a strong supporter of their efforts."

"I'm passionate about CAFE. It supported me in taking over the family business from my dad and aided me in doing it in a way where both the business and my relationship with my father flourished. How? By connecting me with peers who had similar experiences and putting me in touch with professional advice and resources specific to family businesses. I couldn't have done it without CAFE."

30 Days of Grad: Lauren Roberge
Most high school valedictorians speak vaguely about a limitless future at this time of year, but Amesbury Academy's Class of 2015 valedictorian Lauren Roberge is a bit more pointed.
"My family is very excited and proud of how far I have come, especially because we didn't think I was going to live to 18, let alone graduate at the top of my class," Roberge said. "And I am very proud."
An Amesbury native, Roberge came to the public charter school in her sophomore year after experiencing difficulty at Amesbury High School, according to principal Eryn Maguire. "She dealt with some pretty intense bullying," Maguire said. "When we accepted her, we were told by the high school that she had struggled, and that we were going to be dealing with some of those struggles."
Roberge had felt trapped, and now fully agrees with her principal and former biology teacher that the smaller class sizes at the Academy really fit the bill.
The Academy let Roberge feel comfortable enough, she said, not only to come out as gay, but to excel academically.
"I didn't have as many opportunities to be myself," Roberge said. "The Academy let me be who I am and accepted me for me, which is what I really needed. When I went to the Academy, I had been in a place where I didn't think I was going to make it — not just through school, but life itself. The school definitely saved my life."

Splash Damage, the developer behind Brink and Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, will be stepping into the publishing game starting in June 2012 with the release of its iOS-exclusive title, Rad Soldiers. The turn-based strategy game features offline play against the AI and asynchronous online multiplayer, which the official website describes as "guns with friends."
Rad Soldiers will be coming to iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch sometime in June as a free-to-play title supported by an in-game store. It sounds like there's a heavy emphasis on collecting and customizing your own unique squad of mercenaries, which you'll do by collecting (or buying) coins that you can then use in the in-game store.
The newly launched WarChest website notes that Splash Damage is still working on PC and console games as well. An "unannounced" titles is listed on the site, though there's no actual detail beyond that. Which sort of makes sense, seeing as it's unannounced and all.

State Water Resources Research Institute Program
Project ID: 2008PR45B
Title:Open Pit Quarry Restoration to Bio-Viable Lands
Project Type: Research
Start Date: 3/01/2008
End Date: 2/28/2011
Congressional District: N/A
Focus Categories: Water Quality, Groundwater, Hydrogeochemistry
Keywords: Resource Development, Plant Growth, Water Quality
Principal Investigator: Hwang, Sangchul (University of Puerto Rico at Mayaguez)
Federal Funds: $ 20,000
Non-Federal Matching Funds: $ 41,543
Abstract: Open pit quarries potentially represent physical risks to safety of people and stock due to dangerous vertical pit walls or deep water. And also, they can be a possible source of environmental pollution from water accumulation unless properly drained. Other pits become arenas for off-road vehicle use, illegal dumping, trespass, and unauthorized activities like target shooting. Open pits have been restored or reclaimed to different types of environmental matrices depending on their end uses and the location and nature of the pits.
The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility of coal ash aggregates (CAA)-based restoration of the open pits in Santa Isabel. The site is planned to be used as an agricultural land after restoration. The main goal of this study is to investigate the feasibility of CAA-based refill for the open pits in Santa Isabel. The site is planned to be used as an agricultural land after restoration. Therefore, this study aims to assess the potential risks in relation to contamination of soil and groundwater associated with the use of industrial byproducts CAAs. Another objective is to evaluate bio-viability on the land after restoration. To meet this end, laboratory feasibility tests have extensively been done during the past first project year. Water quality and bio-viability after restoration with CAAs were assessed and the results obtained are to be utilized for the further investigations. Now, further laboratory feasibility tests assessing water quality parameters and bio-viability, and computational modeling are proposed to be continued for additional 2 years ending by Feb. 28, 2011. Therefore, this is a CONTINUING PROJECT PROPOSAL for the second and third years.

Iggy Azalea Debuts Pink Ombre Hair In Jeremy Scott
Iggy Azalea on Oct. 20 and on Jan. 19.
Photo: Getty Images/@IggyAzalea's Twitter
Single process hair color is officially donezo! Celebs everywhere are transforming their monochrome locks into saturated ombre 'dos—the most recent addition being Aussie rapper Iggy Azalea. Known for her stick-straight, SUPER long, blonde high ponytail, the singer switched up her look thanks to a recent Complex magazine photo shoot. She tweeted a picture in which she sports some stellar free-flowing waves dyed a bright purple-to-pink ombre hue. We are SO in love with Iggy's new 'do, and we finally get to see her without that slicked-back hair! (Not like she doesn't wear a killer pony, though.) We like how instead of the traditional dip-dye look that most people rock (see: Dakota Fanning), she reversed it and went super bold at the roots and slowly faded into a more natural hue. And, um, beauteous hair aside, we NEED to talk about her amazing bod. Once you stop giving her serious elevator eyes (creep!), we've got a pop quiz for you: Name where you've seen this look before. Aaand go!
Her yellow and green cactus print crop top and skirt are straight from the Jeremy Scott spring/summer 2012 runway! The Beverly Hillbillies meets Daisy Duke collection was entirely inspired by Western wear, but Iggy updated the look by actually cutting the singlet runway dress into two pieces! I mean, with abs like that, who WOULDN'T? We're sososo anxious to see what she'll be wearing for the rest of the spread, and if we're already loving Iggy's look in this dimly lit cell phone photo, we can only imagine what kind of greatness is about to come our way. *SQUEE*

Man May be Sent to Prison for Exploiting Firmware Bug in Poker Machine
Jason Mick

Casino tends player was "hacking" by pressing a clever combination of buttons
In 2009, Las Vegas local John Kane scored the dream of many gamblers, winning five large jackpots on slot machines in an hour worth around $8,200 USD a piece at the
Silverton Casino Lodge
. Now he's in danger of going to federal prison -- all for pressing buttons on a slot machine in a fashion he figured out would exploit a flaw in the machine's logic.
The case against Mr. Kane and co-defendant Andre Nestor (who helped Mr. Kane figure out the exploit) is being heard in
U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada
Federal Judge Miranda Du
. Prosecutors, backed by Silverton Casino and the slot machine manufacturer International Game Technology (
), are looking to not only deny the man his jackpot, but also charge him and his friend for violating the ambiguously worded Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986 (
Sentences for various for-profit "hacking" violations carry sentences of up to five years under the act, as
Goatse Sec. hacker Andrew "weev" Auernheimer
painfully found out.
Andrew Leavitt, a veteran LV lawyer representing Mr. Kane, calls the accusation ridiculous, saying his client was playing by the rules of the machine and was not responsible for the manufacturer's programming errors. He tells
in an interview, "I'm not exaggerating or embellishing. … In one year he played 12 million dollars worth of video poker. It's an addiction. He accidentally hit a button too soon, and presto. It was a fluke. There was no research… Just playing."
He admits that his client, along with Mr. Nestor (who played primarily in Penn. casinos) then exploited the bug at the Fremont, the Golden Nugget, the Orleans, the Texas Station, Harrah's, the Rio, the Wynn, and the Silverton, but contends he did not "hack" and did nothing wrong.
The pair used their trick on the Game King multi-game machine. [Image Source: IGT]
Even Las Vegas' Gaming Control Board chief inspector Jim Barbaree calls the exploit an "extreme rarity", saying most "cheaters" use mechanical tricks or other physical attacks like shocking the machine to try to earn illicit playouts. By contrast Mr. Kane was playing the game, but had found an error of the game within its rules.
Mr. Nestor commented on the charges previously, "I'm being arrested federally for winning on a slot machine. It's just like if someone taught you how to count cards, which we all know is not illegal. You know. Someone told me that there are machines that had programming that gave a player an advantage over the house. And that's all there is to it.… Who would not win as much money as they could on a machine that says, 'Jackpot'? That's the whole idea!"
Andre Nestor faces years in prison for winning a slot machine. [Image Source: Wired]
The key to the case is an ambiguous phrase "exceeds authorized access". That catch all phrase is used by companies to try to send whoever they dislike to prison by accusing the target of using their machine/software in a way they didn't approve of. In some cases such "violations" have resulted in prison time, in others the suspects have been found innocent.
The CFAA is under reform, after RSS-coauthor and internet activist Aaron Schwartz
committed suicide
, with
questionable CFAA charges
thought to be partially to blame.
Rep. Zoe Lofgren
(D-Calif.) and
Sen. Ron Wyden
(D-Oreg.) have sponsored a bill called "
Aaron's Law
", however it has yet to pass and be signed into law.

(KOB) An Albuquerque, New Mexico mother with a life-threatening disease says she was kept out of her daughter's school because of the way she smells.
The smell can be overpowering at times.
She admits it, but should she be kept at a distance for something beyond her control?
Kerri Mascareno says she needs time to live, to watch her three girls grow up and marry.
"They're the fuel that keeps me going," said Mascareno.
But there may not be much time left.
"It was pretty devastating," she remembers. "I thought about my children right away."
