shuckcorn* Last week, we reported that video-game law was the hot practice area. This week, it’s supposedly health-care law. Not nearly so interesting. If I’m going to see guts, I want it in Grand Theft Auto, not a real operating room.

More after the jump.

* With John Roos’s appointment to the US embassy in Japan, who will take over Larry Sonsini’s firm? According to the Recorder, “two primary candidates have emerged: corporate rainmaker Steven Bochner and the head of litigation, Douglas Clark.”

* Super VC Fred Wilson’s advice on term sheet etiquette has sparked some interesting discussion.

* Hiring Partner is back with more common-sense advice: partners aren’t summers’ (or any associates’) pals or peers. Don’t forget that. Especially not in this market.

* Dole isn’t happy about a forthcoming film about the banana-pesticide case. Can’t really blame them – the director’s story ends more than a year before fraud and witness tampering in the case were discovered.
