James Van Der Beek's Famous 'Dawson' Cry Wasn't in the Script
The star of ABC's new sitcom "Don't Trust the B---- in Apartment 23" reveals that he did not mean to shed tears during the "Dawson's Creek" scene that is now a viral sensation.
For a guy who played such a melodramatic character, James Van Der Beek doesn't take himself too seriously these days. That's a good thing, because the internet sure does like to have fun at his expense. Especially when it comes to a certain moment of weepiness that came during an episode of the teen soap opera that made him famous, Dawson's Creek.
But as he told The Huffington Post's Jaimie Etkin, the tears were never supposed to happen in the first place.
"It wasn't scripted, I don't think," he said. "I mean, it was appropriate for the scene. You know, it was just high drama; you've been living with this character for a while and a scene like that just kind of drops in your lap and you just lose it. They yell cut and say, 'Oh my god. That was amazing!' So I remember being completely surprised by it because it was completely sincere. [Laughs.] The fact that it's being used to mock me now, I think it's so funny."
PHOTOS: Mid-Season TV Show Premiere Preview
Van Der Beek has made a second career out of poking fun at himself. He's starred in numerous Funny or Die videos -- including one that makes fun of the virality of the famed crying face -- as well as starring in a Ke$ha video in which he plays himself. That's all been good practice for his latest role, playing a satirical version of himself in ABC's new comedy, Dont Trust the B---- in Apartment 23.
"I realized if you tell a joke at a party, if it's a self-deprecating joke as opposed to if it's a self-aggrandizing one, it's a lot funnier," he told reporters at the TCAs this past January.

No. 1-selling software for running Windows applications on a Mac becomes an even easier choice for millions of consumers and IT professionals worldwide with this most powerful version of the software to date
LONDON, UK - August 20, 2014 - Parallels® today launched Parallels Desktop® 10 for Mac (www.parallels.com/uk/upgradepd10) and Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac Enterprise Edition, the industry-leading software for running Windows applications on Macs. New built-in intelligence and support for Apple's latest operating systems - including OS X Yosemite[1] - greatly improves ease-of-use for both business users and consumers, allowing them to forget about the operating system and focus on the task at hand. Starting Aug. 20th, current users can upgrade to Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac at www.parallels.com/uk/upgradepd10. For new customers, Parallels Desktop 10 will be available for purchase at retail and online stores worldwide and via the Parallels website starting Aug. 26th.
"Millions of Parallels Desktop for Mac customers have come to expect ingenuity, ease of use and speed from Parallels and they will not be disappointed with Parallels Desktop 10," said Parallels President Jack Zubarev. "With Parallels Desktop 10 customers can enjoy new levels of productivity without having to worry about whether the app they need is available on a specific operating system — Parallels creates a world of compatibility at home, work and on the road."
Parallels Desktop 10 will bring many of the announced features of Mac OS X Yosemite[1] to Windows and Windows applications, supporting iCloud Drive, iMessages and SMS text sharing from Windows, and control of virtual machines from Spotlight preview and Finder QuickLook. New ease-of-use improvements include Wizards that guide users through optimising their experience, improved performance and battery life, and improved usability between operating systems so that people can complete tasks more quickly.
Parallels Desktop 10 gets out of the way so customers can think less about the tools being used and more about what's important. It also offers the choice and freedom to use whatever operating system fits your needs - including OS X Yosemite, OS X Mavericks, Mac OS X Mountain Lion, Windows 8, Windows 7, Chrome OS, Android and a number of Linux operating systems - all on one computer.
"Today we are seeing a shift in consumer behaviour. Users' expectations are that they should be able to simply run any application they need regardless of operating system," said Laura DiDio, ITIC Consulting. "Parallels Desktop 10 for Mac is helping customers realise this goal by offering best-in-class virtualisation software and cross-platform access tools for consumer, SMB and enterprise users."
Parallels Desktop for Mac Enterprise Edition
Parallels is also updating Parallels Desktop® for Mac Enterprise Edition — the best way to provide Windows applications on Macs in a corporate environment. Now IT managers can support Windows applications for Mac users with a configurable, policy-compliant solution that easily fits into existing IT business processes. New features allow administrators to select and enforce a USB device policy, install OS X guests using a NetBoot image from a server on the corporate network, encrypt OS X virtual machines with the help of the FileVault encryption feature built into OS X, and check the status of licenses and reclaim seats directly. Built upon the world's best-selling Mac desktop virtualisation solution, it adds centralised administration and management capabilities as well as enhanced security to keep IT in control of virtual machines.

- Virtual machine only takes as much disk space on the Mac hard drive as it needs. Real-time optimisation automatically compacts virtual disk eliminating the need for periodic manual compacts.
- Free Disk Space Wizard allows users to review and clean up space used by Parallels Desktop and Virtual Machines
Easy to get started:
- Now with one click users can select from a number of choices to optimise their virtual machine based on what their primary usage is: productivity, games, design or development
- The new Parallels Control Centre is a one-stop-shop for managing Parallels Desktop; it allows users to manage all their virtual machines and configuration settings from a single place
- Windows installation has been streamlined, with new ways to configure virtual machines
- Regional settings from the Mac are now set by default in Windows virtual machines
Seamless integration for best user experience:

- When users install a new Windows application, its icon will automatically be added to the OS X Launchpad
- The unread email indicator on Outlook lets users see at a glance the number of unread emails in Outlook, just like with Apple Mail
- Users can drag and drop files to the virtual machine icon in the Dock to open in Windows
- Users also have the ability to easily restore any setting to its default value by clicking the Restore Defaults button in the Virtual Machine Configuration window

"Parallels Desktop 10 is - quite simply - remarkable. I've been a user of Parallels Desktop since version six," said Steven Z.
"I installed OS X Yosemite Developer Preview as a virtual machine (VM) within Parallels Desktop 10. It works like a dream. I like the idea and ability to configure before launching a VM. I love the Parallels Desktop Control Centre - it looks elegant. I especially like the option to use compact or expanded views. Installation and integration is seamless.

The Open Compute Project is a collective effort by Facebook and a number of players in the datacenter industry to bring lessons learned from the social media giant's giant IT deployment to the rest of the world. Datacenters account for 3% of global electricity consumption – about the same as all of Switzerland or the Czech Republic -- according to people I met at the recent Open Compute Summit in San Jose. With increasing mobility at the edge of the cloud and vast new dataflows being predicted with the growth of the Internet of Things (and The Coming Age of Many Zettabytes) in the near...

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...

From cloud computing and Big Data analytics to Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) and the Internet of Things (IoT), today we have to deal with what the industry likes to call 'paradigm shifts' at every level of IT. This is disruption; of course, we understand that – change is almost always disruptive.

Herve Leger Runway New York Fashion Week Fall 2011
Description:For Fall 2011, Lubov and Max Azria did what they do best when it comes to Herve Leger: bandage dresses, of course. Yet unlike the miniskirts of collection past, this season saw a noticeable drop in hemlines - only to the knee, not to worry you girls-about-town - and the occasional fluid skater skirt. The palette stayed in neutral territory with models turned out in white, black, and gold, while slouchy knee-high boots offered a slight tribal vibe. To see all the looks watch our coverage now!

Zayn Malik quits One Direction: band will record fifth album without him
Tabloid stories and pressures have left him wanting a life outside of the limelightRead more on One Direction Listen to One Direction on Spotify
One Direction fans now know the terrible pain we all felt when Geri Halliwell left the Spice Girls. Zayn Malik has officially quit the band following accusations that he cheated on Perrie Edwards in Thailand.
Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Niall Horan and Liam Payne released a statement earlier: "We're really sad to see Zayn go, but we totally respect his decision and send him all our love for the future.
"The past five years have been beyond amazing, we've gone through so much together, so we will always be friends. The four of us will now continue."
They added: "We're looking forward to recording the new album and seeing all the fans on the next stage of the world tour."
Simon Cowell added: "I would like to thank Zayn for everything he has done for One Direction.
"Since I first met Zayn in 2010, I have grown very, very fond – and immensely proud – of him. I have seen him grow in confidence and I am truly sorry to see him leave.
"As for One Direction, fans can rest assured that Niall, Liam, Harry and Louis are hugely excited about the future of the band."
The boys will continue touring and writing material for their upcoming fifth studio album – out later this year.

Small crowd watches Bengals lose to 49ers 13-8
It'll go down as the Bengals home opener that most fans didn't want to see. Those that did show up found it hard to watch.
Kendall Hunter ran 7 yards for the game's only touchdown with 3:59 to go Sunday, rallying the 49ers to a 13-8 victory in front of Cincinnati's smallest crowd for a home opener in 30 years.
There were only 43,363 fans at 65,500-seat Paul Brown Stadium, the Bengals' smallest crowd for a home opener since they played at Riverfront Stadium in 1981.
''They were pretty loud, even though there weren't as many people here,'' defensive tackle Domata Peko said. ''That's who you play for, your fans and your family. The only way we're going to get more people here is to win games.''
Chalk this one up to the young offense.
Cincinnati (1-2) was limited to a pair of field goals by Mike Nugent. Rookie quarterback Andy Dalton had his first dismal performance, throwing two interceptions in the fourth quarter - the first of his career.
He went 6 of 7 for 61 yards on an opening drive to a field goal. The rest of the way, Dalton was 12 of 26 for 96 yards with two interceptions and a sack.
''We started fast, which is what you come out to do,'' Dalton said. ''We were flat after that. We couldn't do the things we wanted to do.''
After Hunter's run put the 49ers ahead for the first time, Dalton threw an interception that set up David Akers' 53-yard field goal for a 13-6 lead. That small crowd headed for the exits when Reggie Smith intercepted him again with 1:45 left. The 49ers took a safety while running out the clock.
Dalton had passer ratings above 100 in his first two starts, but repeatedly forced throws against the 49ers' defense. He went 17 of 32 for 157 yards and a rating of 40.8.
For the first time, he looked like a rookie.
''In the fourth quarter, he did some things we (knew) he might do at some point, but he will come out of it and be fine,'' coach Marvin Lewis said.
Hunter's run completed the only noteworthy drive by the 49ers (2-1), who didn't even cross midfield until midway through the third quarter.
It was a satisfying start to the 49ers' weeklong stay in the Buckeye State. They'll practice at Youngstown State the next few days, then head to Philadelphia for their next game.
Alex Smith's only good moments pulled it out for the 49ers. He led a 10-play, 72-yard drive, hitting tight end Vernon Davis with a 20-yard pass on a misdirection play to set up the winning touchdown.
''I think we shut them down for the most part, their running game and their passing game,'' Peko said. ''They tricked us a little with that tight end delay. We have plenty of room for improvement.''
Until the closing minutes, it appeared the 49ers had forgotten to pack their West Coast offense. Ugliness abounded.
The late drive saved them. Smith was under constant pressure and finished 20 of 30 overall for 201 yards and five sacks. The 49ers underdcut their own drives with penalties, and Kevin Huber's punts pinned them at their own 10, 11, 12, 14 and 17, leaving too much ground for one of the NFL's least-productive offenses to cover.
Also, the 49ers were missing receiver Braylon Edwards, who hurt his right knee during an overtime loss to Dallas last Sunday.
The Bengals were at full-strength after deciding to let receiver Jerome Simpson play. He missed two days of practice because he's the focus of an investigation into a drug shipment to his home. He got into the game on the opening series and finished with only one catch for 6 yards.
Lewis decided a few hours before the game to let Simpson play.
Notes: Bengals RB Cedric Benson carried 17 times for 64 yards, extending the 49ers' streak of stopping the run. They came in with the league's top run defense, allowing 54.5 yards per game. They haven't allowed a 100-yard rusher in the last 25 games. ... Akers made field goals of 23 and 53 yards, giving him 301 in his career. ... San Francisco has an 11-3 edge in the series, including two Super Bowl wins. ... The smallest crowd in Paul Brown Stadium's 12-year history was 42,092 for a 29-15 loss to Jacksonville on Dec. 15, 2002. The Bengals went 2-14 that season. ... The Bengals are 2 of 21 on third downs in the last two games.

Red Christmas Tree

Can's seem to find them any place around here and actually folks look at me like I am crazy when I ask. Perhaps they don't make lights with red wire? ? Any ideas are greatly welcome.

UPDATED: Thursday, June 10, 2010 - 5:56pm
The East Texas Rescue Mission has been open for nearly two years, housing several homeless people. Now these people might have to go back to the streets.
The center provides several services, such as GED programs and ministries throughout the week.
Tony Chung, the president of the Resue Mission, expanded the mission without a permit and housed over a hundred people instead of the less than forty allotted.
Also, there were no background checks given to the men before they were allowed to stay at the mission. Some are concerned with what bringing in homeless men might do for the safety of the children in the area.
Mr. Chung asked the city council for a special permit to continue using and expanding the mission for six months. The council denied him that permit.
Dozens of volunteers, homeless people, and Mr. Chung are all devestated.
Mr. Chung says this is his heart and passion, and now his heart is broken.
The city will give the mission a grace period to close down, but we're not sure how long that will be.
Mr. Chung says he is going to put the building up for lease or sale.

I'm trying to pass a complex object via Windows Communication Foundation, but I get Read errors. I'm able to binaryFormat the object to a file and reload and deserialize it. All the components/ referenced component Classes are marked with the Serializable attribute. As a work round I have serialized the object to a memory stream, passed the memory stream over WCF and then deSerialized the memory stream at the other end. Although I could live with this solution it doesn't seem very neat. I can't seem to work out what the criteria are for being able to read from the proxy. Relatively simple objects, even ones that include a reference to another class can be be passed and read without any attribute at all. Any advice welcomed.

Xplicit - I Want You ft. Pleasure P
Artist: Xplicit
Featuring: Pleasure P
Producer: Midus
Album: TBA
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 30 votes )
The title "young prodigy" has been thrown around numerous times, but Miami-native Xplicit might be the most deserving of the designation. Before the age of 17 he released six mixtapes and after a performance at the Calle Ocho block party in March of '07, he received a standing ovation from tens of thousands of fans in attendance. Now 19, X is ready to hit up the radio waves with the slow jam, I Want You. The song features former Pretty Ricky front man, Pleasure P, but the collaboration is a gift and a curse. While X gets his moneys worth from the hook, it likely will draw listeners away from the solid verses on either side. So is Xplicit a "young prodigy"? Sure, but he wants to be so much more.

Kind of thought this was just a passing fad. Most "deals" on Groupon and its competitors are just opportunities to upsell you once they have you in the door of whatever business offering you got suckered into paying for. Be careful in choosing something you really want or need, phone around to get the best deal and then go for it. Don't buy something just because it's 50% off and you didn't actually want it in the first place.
Sentiment: Hold
You heard it first here, folks......
Would have expected this from any slimey Chinese company but not here in Canada. Shame!!!!
Nice pop but they are few and far between. Still underwater but as soon as I hit B/E I'm outta here. Know a few of the employees and they all say it sucks to work at Ballard. They downsize but then hit the leftover workers with extra duties to take up the slack. No vision of growth with that attitude. Much better fuel cell options out there......
Sentiment: Sell
NEVER, EVER, TRUST A CHINESE COMPANY..!!!!!!!!!!! Play with money you don't care if you lose. If you find yourself in the black....GET OUT!!!!!! Never look back. This company is a case in point...
Sentiment: Strong Sell
The writing is on the wall. Time to go to ground until after all this craziness settles down.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Just a little concerned...this being relatively new technology and all. Seems like a legitimate, non-invasive technology to deal with minor fat accumulation in healthy people. Not just an esthetic treatment but with health benefits as well. But I wonder if a lot of people who are in the "kinda, pretty fat" category might not be candidates for this treatment however. I am rather talking through my hat here. Not trying to cause trouble or attempting to incite panic. I actually like non-invasive medical procedures.....if they work. Not related but I had a couple of minor laproscopic surgeries and was so impressed with the skill, outcome and minimal scarring and extremely brief stay in the clinic doing the procedures. Also wondering about competitors. I see a couple listed in the Yahoo stock info. You could buy them all and see who really takes off. Even though this tech has been approved I just feel a little dubious about the frozen, crystallized fat cells being absorbed into the body (ie: blood stream) and not causing residual problems. Thanks for the info. Will do more homework.
Classic case of snooze you lose. Friend told me about it a year ago. Would have been great to get in on the ground floor or even a couple of stories up. Can this go higher...?
Sentiment: Hold
What a spectacular blunder!! Why are these CEOs paid so much when they can't even see that a business move is going to be a major failure. We don't want you in Canada!!! We already have enough stores in every neighbourhood selling cheap #$%$ from China. We don't like you because you are an American company and we already have Wallmart. Major fail..!!!
Sentiment: Strong Sell
What most people fail to appreciate is that this was just one of many over-hyped stocks during the tech boom that skysocketed far beyond its normal, income determined stock value.. We bought and bought JDSU along with all the other internet and tech darlings (eg, AOL, NOK, SUN, HP, APPL and hundreds more) and if we were smart, we got out when it was obvious things were getting ugly. The stock is now worth whatever people think it's worth. If you are still hoping it will get back to pre-crash levels then you are deluding yourself. Plenty more opportunities out there. Sell it for a loss, use that to offset your gains and then get on with it......
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I guess you feel that diving from $20 to less than $2 in just 2 years is "not going anywhere".......
Sentiment: Strong Sell
This article may have some useful info for you/us/me.. http://preview.tinyurl.com/qd5gmwk Basically, it's not so much about selling cameras but in getting the associated follow up business of evidence storage and support. Can't see Google not wanting to get their greedy little mitts into this as soon as it looks profitable. But they're already in hot water for collecting data that the NSA had free access to...... It's going to get interesting...

Oak Creek massacre hits home
On a normal Monday morning commute, I drive by the Sikh Temple in Oak Creek along Howell Avenue on my way to work to Milwaukee's Historic Third Ward.
But today was not a normal Monday morning.
Today is the day after a lone gunman walked into the Sikh Temple and shot and killed six people before a brave Oak Creek police officer returned fire and killed the assailant.
I grew up in Oak Creek. I'm a proud graduate of Oak Creek High School. I still live in Oak Creek. I have watched the city grow from a population of about 18,000 to 35,000 today.
In the past year, no city in southeastern Wisconsin has had a more vibrant "buzz" than Oak Creek. The massive former Delphi factory site is a genuine opportunity to create a landmark redevelopment, to create a new downtown from scratch. The city's lakefront is a jewel waiting to happen. The Drexel Avenue freeway interchange will open up the South 27 th Street corridor,
which includes the sprawling Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co. Inc. campus, to the world.
Caterpillar Inc. moved its global mining division's headquarters to Oak Creek.
But all of that promise, all of that progress, was put on hold Sunday.
I cannot express how surreal Sunday was for the residents of Oak Creek. As we watched the story unfold on CNN, multiple police and news helicopters hovered over our houses. Sirens blared, ambulances rushed and traffic was diverted.
We watched television news as Oak Creek Mayor Steve Scaffidi, Police Chief John Edwards and Fire Chief Tom Rosandich – lifelong friends of mine – tried to make sense of this horrible tragedy in a press conference.
Oak Creek is forever changed.
Our hearts go out to the victims and their families. They had assembled in peace, and they perished in hatred.
In the past, I've watched such tragedies from afar on television, as they took place in towns I have never seen to people I've never known.
Sunday's massacre was different. It was in my back yard.
When the movie theater shooting happened in Aurora, Colo., last month, I wrote the following to my friends of Facebook: "We've all seen this play before, haven't we? Concerned citizens will ask why it should be legal to buy weapons that can fire 50 to 60 rounds per minute. Gun rights supporters will say we can't have any restrictions on weapons because it's a slippery slope, and 'If we outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns.' And in the end, nothing will get done, because the National Rifle Association (NRA) always buys off enough politicians to make sure nothing gets done. And this tragedy will fade from our memories until the next one happens. And then we'll do this play all over again."
Little did I know...
The Second Amendment was written at a time when one man could fire one musket ball at a time. My Second Amendment rights would not be deprived today by sensible restrictions on how many shots can be fired by automatic or semi-automatic weapons – anymore than they would be deprived if I am not allowed to walk around with a nuclear weapon.
Sunday's tragedy indeed may have been unavoidable. But we need not make it easier for the carnage to escalate. And we should not settle for a society in which weapons are more easily attained than mental health care.

Crash after champion select
I am getting crashes after selecting my champion.
I get into a lobby, everyone picks, then when the client closes and the game itself opens up to load, it just stays black and goes unresponsive. This has been happening for about a day now and nothing has changed.
So far I haven't been able to play 2 games and I am sure I'm going to get reported and banned just because of this. Which is ridiculous.
Fixed after letting the patcher repair for a while. I hope anyways.

What is Strong Families AZ?
Strong Families AZ is a network of free home visiting programs that helps families raise healthy children ready to succeed in school and in life. Our programs focus on pregnant women and families with children birth to age 5.
So, What is Home Visiting?
Home visiting provides families the opportunity to take part in parent education programs within the comforts of their own home. Program involvement for families is completely free and participation is voluntary.
Parent education programs delivered by home visitors provide benefits to all types of families. Parenting can be overwhelming, especially for young families who may be facing a variety of economic, health, social and educational concerns; and that's where home visiting programs can have a positive impact.
Home visitors have helped families just like yours become stronger. Families who participate in home visiting experience increased opportunities for support and are connected to local resources and programs. Young families who participate in a home visiting program report that they feel more confident, capable and hopeful for their future and the future of their children.
When families feel supported they are more likely to achieve their full potential and that's where the Strong Families AZ network of partners play an important role.See all of our Home Visitation programs

Restored St. Patrick's rectory is on 2012 Tour of Homes
Perhaps no other residence on the Christmas Tour of Homes has created as much interest and anticipation as house at 321 St. Croix St.
Built in 1875, the home has only had two owners. It was built by St. Patrick Catholic Church, Hudson's largest congregation, and served as the priests' rectory for more than 130 years before it was put up for sale. Jim and Kim Burns moved to Hudson and bought a house they liked but always wanted to find something historic they could restore.

CPX Exhibitor Spotlight SERIES! Highway 1
Today we kick off our first ever Exhibitor Spotlight Series with Highway 1 and its incredible portfolio companies.
"Highway1 is a hardware startup accelerator based in San Francisco. Anyone can build a prototype, but manufacturing at scale is a bigger problem. Highway1 has the knowledge, experience and partners to get hardware startups on their way."

CPX Exhibitor Spotlight: Atlas Wearables
Atlas Wearables presents the Atlas Wristband and its thoughts on #PDFT:
"Atlas believes the future of wearable fitness technology moves beyond measuring heart rate and counting steps. Focusing on how to deliver the most end-user value in a form factor that would encourage an easy user experience, we started the industrial design from the ground up. The widescreen display maximizes content while following the natural wrist form of an athlete, broadcasting the most relevant and pressing metrics each user expects. And of course, Atlas introduces automatic motion detection, moving wearables into a future of advanced analytics, creating a true athletic advantage."
CPX Team Spotlight: Nisha, VP Event Operations & Logistics
CPX Exhibitor Spotlight: Moff Inc.
"For Moff Inc. and Moff Band, "PRODUCT DESIGN FOR TOMORROW" is the most important user interface for "Internet of Things (IoT)". At the category of the connected human, which means monitoring human activity with sensors, IoT products should be more natural, usable and fashionable for users to wear or put it in the room. Design should not be only for the early-adapters. Technologies inside the IoT products will be similar, such as sensors, algorithm and database. The differentiation in terms of DESIGN will be more important for users."
Come see Moff Inc. on April 8 at CPX! 23 days to go! #PDFT #StanfordCPX
CPX Exhibitor Spotlight: Arx Pax showcases the Hendo Hover Whitebox™
Arx Pax on Product Design for Tomorrow #PDFT
"Being that our physics based technology was founded by an architect, not a 'scientist', we firmly believe that some of the "biggest breakthroughs often depend on the naïve daring of outsiders." These days, with almost limitless access to information via the internet, as well as easy access to rapid prototyping with the ubiquity of 3D printers, cheap microcontrollers & sensors, and finally the ease of crowdsourcing ideas and the availability of open-source software, this is going to be more true today and in the future than ever before."*
*Note: The quotation included in Arx Pax's #PDFT above is sourced from Jonah Lehrer's article "How To Be Creative", published by The Wall Street Journal on March 12, 2012: http://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052970203370604577265632205015846 (accessed March 13, 2015)

CPX Team Spotlight: Jason Mayden
Today we are thrilled introduce Jason Mayden, CPX Advisor. Jason is a talented product designer and a Stanford d.school fellow. We asked Jason our usual question and got an extraodinary response:
"It means, one must be faster than the future in order to assess, distill and leverage the unmet needs of a generation that has yet to be born. This can only happen when a Designer pushes herself to be equal parts historian, artisan, data scientist and ethnographer. In the future data will be her medium of choice and the world will be her canvas."
Find out more about Jason's background here and during CPX! We are proud to announce Jason as this year's opening speaker. #StanfordCPX
