The similarity between modesty and honesty about one's achievements is that in both cases, people will think you're an arrogant prick.
It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, "Always do what you are afraid to do."

most controversial law suit.....


arvard students Cameron WinklevossTyler Winklevoss, and Divya Narendra accused Zuckerberg of intentionally making them believe he would help them build a social network called HarvardConnection.com (later called ConnectU).[35] They filed a lawsuit in 2004 but it was dismissed on a technicality on March 28, 2007. It was refiled soon thereafter in federal court inBoston, and a hearing was scheduled for July 25, 2007, to address Zuckerberg's motion to dismiss.[36] At the hearing the judge told ConnectU that parts of the complaint were deficient and gave them leave to file an amended complaint. Facebook countersued in regards to Social Butterfly, a project put out by The Winklevoss Chang Group, an alleged partnership between ConnectU and i2hub. It named among the defendants ConnectU, Cameron Winklevoss, Tyler Winklevoss, Divya Narendra, and Wayne Chang, founder of i2hub.[37] The parties reached a confidential settlement agreement in February 2008.[38] On June 25, 2008, the case settled and Facebook agreed to transfer over 1.2 million common shares and pay $20 million in cash.[39] In May 2010, it was reported that the ConnectU founders were accusing Zuckerberg of securities fraud for misrepresenting the value of the shares.[40] The founders were under the impression they were worth $45 million.[40] However, that understanding was based on a valuation of preferred shares, whereas the founders had only received common shares.[40] The effect was that the shares given to the founders as part of the settlement were worth 75% less than Facebook had led them to believe, and the overall cash-and-stock deal worth 50% less.[40] Since the time of the settlement, the stock has been trading for $76 per share on secondary markets, which would put the value of the settlement at $120 million.[41]According to one report, the Winklevoss brothers plan to sue Facebook again based on allegations that Facebook misled them as to the valuation of the settlement.[41]
In November 2007, confidential court documents were posted on the website of 02138, a magazine that catered to Harvard alumni. They included Zuckerberg's social security number, his parents' home address, and his girlfriend's address. Facebook filed to have the documents removed, but the judge ruled in favor of 02138.[42]

law school

well my 4yrs in law and also watched “All About Law School” which is a fun (though sometimes cheesy) compilation of law student interviews on their experiences with everything from preparedness, snarkism, and the socratic method. At times, the advice and opinions conflict, so the DVD editors noted thLaw School Confidential” gives a good summary of the law school experience as a whole and offers helpful advice about note taking, briefing, and outlining. “Getting to Maybe” is awesome for exam prep and strategies. e “majority” and “minority” opinions on the issue.
