In a web interview with YouTuber Evan Carmichael, Thiel revealed his tips for success.
Is Peter Thiel funding Dr Shiva Ayyadurai's $35mn lawsuit against Gawker?
An entrepreneur, tech investor and philanthropist, that's how the world knows 'PayPal' founder Peter Thiel, the German-American business tycoon who celebrates his 50th birthday today.
Thiel, with an annual worth of billions, has become a poster boy of success. Despite being educated from the prestigious Stanford University, he continues to question the relevance of a fancy college degree, and often recommends realising ideas outside the university.
Thiel says that every individual is free to choose, do, or prioritise things according to their own liking. Every individual has tremendous amount of freedom to make these basic decisions and these are exactly what shape your life and future.
Thiel says that uniqueness is the USP for any startup. He says that it is important for a company to do one thing exceptionally well. That is what adds to its uniqueness. It should be able to do that one thing better than anyone in the world.
An important question is, 'What do you know that nobody else understands?' It is important to know which form of business exists which no one else understands and is aware of.
By Viandra DsouzaUS-based global coffee giant Starbucks recently sued Sardarbuksh, an Indian coffee chain for allegedly copying its name and logo. Check out other such cases.
In May 2018, popular US brand of Ritz crackers was at the centre of an infringement case in China. Intercontinental Great Brands LLC, makers of Ritz, sued two Chinese companies Dongguan Changshunli Food Limited Company and Jiezhou Food Limited Company over the name of Rize crackers. Ritz argued that the Rize name, as well as the packaging design, was very similar to its registered trademarks and confused consumers. The case in still on, with Ritz asking for $5 million in damages.
In 2015, Ludhiana-based street vendor Ravinder Pal Singh Babbar, who operated a burger joint called Mr Singh Burger King had to change its name after the Miami-based fast food giant filed a trademark case against him.
It is very important to ensure that people in the company are aligned with each other. Both formal and informal alignment are important. The former defines the importance of a good structure in the company and the latter is how people decide to work with each other in the workplace.
Alignment and structure at the workplace make sense when people offer complimentary skills. For example, a startup where one has a tech mind and the other has a business mind can do well.
Each one of us have had to burn the midnight oil ever so often. A Bombay High Court judge recently sat for over 10 hours to prevent backlog, finishing at 3.30 am. Big business names share tales of when they lost track of time.
Thiel's 4th rule says that one should aim for a monopoly, create something different from what exists already. One must aim to build a company which is one of a kind. It should be of a concept different enough to not gain competitors.
To Thiel, saying that one wants to be an entrepreneur is like saying that I want to be rich and famous. Starting a new company should be backed by a strong purpose like solving a problem which has not been solved yet. Starting a company just for the sake of it is a very odd thing to do, he says.
Be more focused on the substance of trying to learn new things instead of the output it might fetch you.
Ferocious competition can make you better your skills, but it comes with a price. It makes you more focused on beating your opponents. This makes you lose sight of what is truly valuable.
2015 With a total compensation valued at $10.3 million, the bulk of the figure consisted of incentive-plan payments.
According to Thiel, all trends are overrated. Trends usually refer to categories where multiple companies are pretty much the same. If one can describes what his or her company is doing on the basis of these trends, it is a sign of the fact that the business was a bad idea.
According to Thiel, failure is not what people learn much from. It is a sort of a myth to challenge. If something goes badly wrong, it would be wise to keep going on, do something else and avoid dwelling on the past.
It is important to find the secret path to success, the one little door which no one has explored yet. That door might be the one which every person is trying to get through but is failing to do so. Pick that path.

It is perhaps the most famous picture of Nessie to this day, the one with a "head" and "neck" sticking up out of the water.

And "idus" (the ides) was originally the day of the full moon, eventually fixed at the 15th day of a month. Well, actually the ides were the 15th day of March, May, July and October.

Truman was the only US President who did not have a college degree.

Last week Twitter did us a serious favor by suggesting we become friends with Tyler Tervooren, the man behind Advanced Riskology, and boy are we grateful!
Tyler is a down-to-earth but fiercely motivated writer and explorer who takes like by the horns, identifies self limiting realities, then goes out and re-creates them. He tackles subjects as vast as the great outdoors and as grounded as business and entrepreneurship.
I started Advanced Riskology for one extremely important reason – I want to help everyone I can to take smarter and more beneficial risks in their lives.
The Advanced Riskology blog is updated regularly with travel and adventure posts that feature excellent imagery in both the literal and figurative forms.
My theory is that if we stagnate, struggle, and eventually fail by playing it too safe, then we also learn, grow, and ultimately succeed by embracing risk in our lives.

Psalmopoeus ecclesiasticus ist eine baumbewohnende Vogelspinnenrt aus Ecuador. Sie wurde 1903 durch Reginald Innes Pocock beschrieben. Der Holotyp stammt aus der Gegend um den Rio Sapayo Grande in der Provinz Esmeraldas. Der Artname nimmt möglicherweise Bezug auf das Buch Jesus Sirach oder er ist eine Anspielung auf den Gattungsnamen Psalmopoeus. Dieser bedeutet im Deutschen "Psalmendichter". Die Spinne heißt wörtlich übersetzt "kirchlicher Psalmendichter". Über die Lebensweise der Art ist wenig bekannt. Es gibt außer der Erstbeschreibung nur noch eine weitere wissenschaftliche Erwähnung 2006.

Merkmale
Das Männchen wird etwa 3,5 Zentimeter lang (von den Beißklauen bis zu den Spinnwarzen). Der Carapax des Männchens ist ein wenig länger als breit. Die Länge entspricht etwa derjenigen der Tibia des zweiten Laufbeinpaares oder etwa der Hälfte der Länge der Taster. Die Stridulationsorgane auf den Maxillen (Gnathocoxen) bestehen aus ungefähr zwölf dickeren, dunklen Dornen, die nur wenig von den oralen Fransen entfernt liegen. Als Gegenstück sind auf der inneren Saumseite der Beißklauen einige wenige kräftige, borstenartige Dornen. Auf dem Carapax befindet sich eine dichte, oliv-gelbe Behaarung mit einem seidenartigen Glanz. Eine ähnliche Behaarung findet sich auf der Oberseite der basal liegenden Glieder der Laufbeine und Taster wie auch auf den Spitzen der Beißklauen. Die vorherrschende Färbung der Extremitäten ist Mausbraun. Die Laufbeine haben dicke Fransen. Die Oberseite des Opisthosomas hat eine graue Färbung mit längeren, abstehenden, dunkelbraunen Borsten. Die Unterseite ist samtschwarz bis rußig gefärbt. Die Scopulae sind olivgrau.

Das Weibchen wird größer als das Männchen und erreicht eine Körperlänge von ungefähr vier Zentimeter. Es ist im Vergleich zum Männchen kräftiger und robuster gebaut. Die Glieder der Laufbeine sind kürzer als beim Männchen.

Individuen beider Geschlechter lassen sich von der verwandten Art Psalmopoeus cambridgei durch die Stridulationsborsten auf den Tastern unterscheiden. Die Dornen von P. ecclesiasticus sitzen nahe am Saum, sind kurz und nur ungefähr zwölf in der Anzahl. P. cambridgei besitzt einige Dornen mehr und sie sind länger und in gebogenen Linien deutlich vom Saum entfernt angeordnet. Das Männchen von P. ecclesiasticus hat längere Beine und die Bulben sind weniger kugelförmig und der Embolus ist einiges länger als derjenige der Männchen der verwandten Art. Das Männchen von P. cambridgei hat dagegen einen längeren Carapax.

Tomorrow, We. The Revolution releases and it takes place during the French Revolution, a point of major political and social upheaval at the tail-end of the 18th Century. In the game, you'll play the role of a judge on the Revolutionary Tribunal during the Reign of Terror. As part of our coverage on the game, we'll be giving our readers a crash course on this key moment in modern history.
Learn about what We. The Revolution is and how it plays in our preview here. If you want to read more on its gameplay and art style, check out our interviews here and here where we spoke to the developers.
When it comes to exactly what caused the Revolution, a wide variety of causes are still debated. However, some of the biggest reasons were financial and economic ones. King Louis XVI spent a good amount of the country's money on aiding America in the American Revolution. This aggravated a financial crisis primarily started by costly involvements in the Seven Years War. On a more local front, the people of France were dealing with increased bread prices and two decades of droughts, bad harvests, and cattle diseases.
In the fall of 1786, controller general of finances Charles Alexandre de Calonne proposed a financial reform package. Among the changes was a consistent land tax that included the nobility and clergy. In an attempt to stall an aristocratic revolt, Louis XVI reappointed finance minister Jacques Necker and announced that the Estates-General would meet May 5, 1789. This meeting of the three estates (clergy, nobility, and lower/middle class respectively) marked the first meeting of the estates since 1614.
A lot had changed since 1614, including France's demographics. The ~600 men of the Third Estate represented about 95% of the country's population, yet the other two Estates could outvote them. Because the clergy was primarily made of nobles, the two Estates could easily band together on issues. Pamphlets were handed out that argued the importance of the Third Estate and demanding that voting be based by head, not status. By the time the Estates-General met in Versailles, the voting issue completely eclipsed the meeting's original purpose.
On June 17, with talks at the Estates-General stalling, the Third Estate declared itself the National Constituent Assembly, an assembly of "the People." They invited the other Estates to join them but made it apparent that they would proceed without them if necessary. Three days later, when royal officials locked the Assembly deputies out of their meeting hall, the Assembly instead met at the king's indoor tennis court. There, they swore the Tennis Court Oath, where they would not separate until they got France a new constitution. Over the next week, a good amount of clergy and some nobles would join into the Assembly. Louis XVI grudgingly acknowledged the National Assembly on June 27. Meanwhile, the military gathered around Paris and Versailles with plans to forcefully disassemble the Assembly if necessary.
As the Assembly continued their debates, the citizens of Paris grew worried about an "aristocratic coup" facilitated by the encroaching military, which was primarily made up of foreign mercenaries. When Necker, who was disliked by the French court for manipulating public opinion, was fired on July 11 for publishing an inaccurate and publicized account of the government's debts, the citizens went into open rebellion. On July 14, 1789, the rioters raided the Bastille fortress, which was perceived as a symbol of royal power, and Governor Marquis Bernard-René de Launay, despite a mutual ceasefire, was beaten, stabbed, and decapitated, with his head impaled on a pike and paraded around the city. Similarly, the prévôt des marchands (roughly a term for the city's mayor) was butchered by the rioters. The Bastille's storming is considered the start of the French Revolution and is now considered a public holiday.
In order to pay off France's public debt, the Assembly engaged in the mass redistribution of nationalized land formerly owned by the Roman Catholic Church. The Assembly also passed the Civil Constitution of the Clergy on June 12, 1790, which effectively made the remaining clergy employees of the state. However, it was rejected by Pope Pius VI and much of the French clergy, producing a schism between the church and the state that would aggravate later events.
On August 26, the Assembly published the Declaration of The Rights of Man and of the Citizen. Highly inspired by Thomas Jefferson's doctrine of "natural right," The Rights of Man acted as a statement of the Assembly's principles. At this point, the Assembly was seeking to create a permanent constitution. Over the course of the next month, King Louis XVI was able to gain legislative veto power during constitutional negotiations, but the King and the royal family were forced to move from Versailles to Paris by the Women's March on Versailles on October 6. An official constitution was adopted sometime in September, establishing a constitutional monarchy and reflected the views of the more moderate members of the Assembly, which went through elections and became the Legislative Assembly on October 1, 1791. However, more radical members like lawyer and politician Maximilien Robespierre began drumming up support for a more republican form of government.
As political intrigue and radicalism took part in the Legislative Assembly, France wound up declaring war on Austria on April 20, 1792. Radicals hoped to spread the principles of the revolution, while Louis XVI hoped to either boost his popularity or stop the revolution through the help of foreign armies. Austria faced little resistance at first in the war. On July 25, 1792, Charles William Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick (who led the allied armies of Austria and Prussia) issued the Brunswick Manifesto, threatening to harm the French citizens if the royal family was harmed. It was meant to intimidate the people of France, but the Manifesto made people suspect the royal family was colluding with the enemy. King Louis XVI would later be arrested on August 10 when radical revolutionaries rose up in Paris and imprisoned him. He was later sentenced to death and executed on January 14, 1793, with his wife, Marie Antoinette, facing a similar fate nine months later.
On September 2, Parisians learned that Prussia captured the fortress-town of Verdun and heard rumors that imprisoned counter-revolutionaries were allying with the enemy. The citizens of Paris proceeded to massacre around a thousand prisoners over the next few days, about 200 of which were priests who wouldn't support the Civil Constitution of the Clergy. The Legislative Assembly did little to stop the bloodshed and the revolutionary Paris Commune (effectively the city's government) encouraged other cities to follow their example. These massacres would be called the September Massacres. Chaos persisted until new elections were held, and the National Convention became the new de facto government of France on September 20, 1792. A day later, they proclaimed the abolition of the monarchy and the establishment of a republic known as the First French Republic.
Following King Louis XVI's execution, other powers, such as Britain and the Dutch Republic, joined in the war against France. These new allies pushed deeper into France and strengthened the Revolution's extremists. The moderate Girondins were driven from the Convention and the more radical Montagnards took over. They enacted extreme measures, like government control of prices and taxation on the rich, which provoked violent reactions. Eventually, the government took over the violence when it established the Revolutionary Tribunal on March 10, 1793. This marked the beginning of the Reign of Terror, and is primarily where players in We. The Revolution will be taking place, as players pass sentences and engage in political intrigue.
The Revolutionary Tribunal and the Reign of Terror was meant to take harsh measures against those who were suspected of being enemies of the Revolution, such as nobles, priests, and hoarders. Many of the killings were overseen by the Committee of Public Safety (established in April 1793 by the National Convention,) where Robespierre was a member. Exact numbers are uncertain, but about 16,000 people were officially executed, but many more likely were killed without a trial or died in prison.
As the Reign continued and Catholicism was facing a purge, Robespierre established a deist national religion known as the Cult of the Supreme Being. Envisioned as a state religion that celebrated reason, the Festival of the Supreme Being held June 8, 1794 failed to attract much interest. Robespierre's major presence at the Festival widened a gap growing between him and other members of the Revolutionary Government. The French Army's reoccupation of Belgium from Austria in June 26, 1794 also caused trouble for Robespierre when debate opened up two days later on the necessity of wartime measures, which Robespierre supported. After an argument during the debate, Robespierre stopped frequenting meetings of the Committee of Public Safety.
On July 26, 1794, Robespierre returned to the Committee to defend himself from rumors and attacks on his person and to accuse other deputies of conspiracy. His claims didn't go well and he was imprisoned at the city hall (Hôtel de Ville) two days later. Robespierre left the hall with a broken jaw. Some sources say it was from a botched suicide attempt via a pistol, while other say it was caused by an officer occupying the hall. Robespierre was executed later that day at the same guillotine used on so many before, marking an end to the Reign of Terror.
Shortly after Robespierre's execution, the Convention pulled back some of the extreme measures and debated the creation of a new constitution. On August 22, 1795, the National Convention, made up mostly of Girondins, approved a new constitution that created France's first bicameral legislature. They made significant military progress but were dogged by claims of corruption. Eventually, the government was overthrown in a coup d'état on November 9, 1799 led by a charismatic general named Napoleon Bonaparte. His new role as France's "first consul" marked the end of the French Revolution and the beginning of the Napoleonic Era.
The big question, though, is will YOU be able to see the end of the French Revolution? Find out for yourself when We. The Revolution launches on Steam March 21.

URBAN AGENDA: Passing `Clean Slate' Records Clearance Legislation Should Be Albany's First Order of Business
by David R. Jones, Esq., President and CEO of the Community Service Society of New York December 23, 2021 January 6, 2022

It's the winter holiday season, our second with Covid. Ordinarily some of us would be toasting co-workers at holiday parties and joining them on the dance floor for the Electric Slide. Not this year. Others of us would be trying to figure out how to put food on the table and give our families any sense of holiday cheer when there was no money to pay for it. It's hard to be festive when you can't find work.
Covid has put more of us in this second group, particularly those with conviction histories. Some businesses have been forced to close, putting workers out on the job market. Others are trying to rebuild and meet new consumer demand. But even in these times, where you see "help wanted" signs everywhere, employers won't hire individuals who've had contact with the criminal punishment system, including our family members, friends, relatives, and neighbors.
An astounding one in seven New Yorkers has a conviction history, the majority Black and Latinx, reflecting decades of discriminatory policing and prosecution and resulting mass incarceration. A combination of unfounded concerns and, in some cases, raw racial prejudice disguised as business judgment keeps many employers from offering jobs to people with conviction histories. While businesses are crying out for workers, we haven't seen any change in this pattern. Doors are still closed, making individuals suffer a form of perpetual punishment long after they completed whatever sentence courts demanded, and keeping them, their families, and entire communities mired in poverty.
Clean Slate legislation now pending in the Senate and Assembly (S1553/A6399) can change this. Championed by Senator Zellnor Myrie and Assemblymember Catalina Cruz and supported by advocates, businesses including JPMorgan Chase, faith leaders, organized labor, and workforce development groups, Clean Slate will automatically seal conviction records for most jobs and housing purposes after set periods of time. (Conviction records will still be visible to law enforcement, courts, prosecutors, and any agency charged with reviewing applications to work with vulnerable individuals or approving gun license applications.)
Automatically clearing past conviction records is a matter of simple fairness. In these times – or at any time – we can't keep holding people back from fully participating in our economy and community as a whole and call ourselves a progressive state.
The quest to change this reality is personal to me. By supporting Clean Slate, I bring forward the mission my father, Justice Thomas R. Jones, bestowed on me. In the 1960s he challenged Robert F. Kennedy and other leaders to do something concrete about revitalizing Brooklyn's Bed-Stuy community rather than just study it. He was the first chairperson of the Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation. But more important, my father was a warrior for social justice. Before entering public life as a State Assemblymember and then joining the bench, he was a tireless civil rights lawyer, fighting for the rights of those in our community and of people of color across the city, the state and indeed across the nation, to live decent, peaceable lives unburdened by discrimination. He fought for their rights to fully and deeply participate in everything the community had to offer.
From his work in the community and on the bench, and just walking the streets of our Brooklyn neighborhood, my father knew that Black and Latinx New Yorkers were treated differently by the criminal punishment system than their white counterparts, and that we were policed differently and unfairly. He knew that conviction records shut people out of opportunity on so many different levels, and that once a person had a conviction history, the flame of hope for making a decent life for themselves and their families – getting a good job, finding a nice, safe place to live and a foothold in the community – were dimmed. He knew that at a certain point – if there was no hope, no help, and no prospects for a successful future – that flame could simply die.
He fought to keep that flame burning. And so, in turn, do I. Two weeks ago, legislative sponsors, directly affected New Yorkers and I spoke at a Clean Slate rally at Bed-Stuy's Restoration Plaza, near larger-than-life portraits of my father, Robert F. Kennedy, Shirley Chisholm and others. It was an important homecoming. This crucial legislation, which will allow individuals with conviction histories a fair chance to be full participants in the life of this city and state, is something my father would have championed. I've been speaking out on records clearance since 2016, when my organization, the Community Service Society, launched the predecessor of the Clean Slate New York campaign.
Clean Slate's mission: allowing people to move past their records into jobs, stable housing, and full membership in their communities. Let 2022 be the year we pass this vital legislation.
