I T don’t mean that sarcastically. I genuinely hope you learned something of no apparent application to your practice at all. I know I did, and it was worth it. This year I spent a few hours learning wine law from some CEB programs. I don’t practice wine law. I don’t plan to practice wine law. I don’t even really want to practice wine law. But despite (or perhaps because of) that, I enjoyed those CEB programs more than any others. As attorneys, so much of our learning is driven by practical necessity. Being a litigator, I learned how to draft pleadings, motions, and discovery not out of idle curiosity but because I had to. I research legal issues as they arise and show their relevance to a matter. This type of learning has its own rewards. As we develop our practice skills, there is a pride and often enjoyment in mastering the tools of our trade. We are lucky that law is a profession that allows us to continue learning, even over decades, and most of us would not be attorneys unless we had both a skill and a thirst for learning new things. But the second of those qualities—the thirst—applies not only to overtly practical learning but also to a kind whose purpose is less clear. We should nourish that thirst, and quench it at every opportunity. For most of us, it is an innate quality that helped us persevere through years of schooling, the bar exam, and the difficult— often frightening—early years of practice, when so much felt beyond our knowledge, our skills, and our control. View it this way and it is not hard to see a practical purpose for ostensibly “useless” learning. The love of learning is like a muscle. It must be exercised, but unless you mix up your exercise routine, you risk getting bored and having your commitment flag. I was a bit bored that day I watched my first wine law program. Afterwards, I felt more reinvigorated than if I had whiled away an hour on the Internet. (For me, the Internet is a conundrum in that it enables me to consume so much information and to retain so little. At dinner, my wife may ask if I read anything interesting that day, and though I spent an hour or more online, I feel hard pressed to say anything. Perhaps because the Internet is always there—at our desks, on our phones—and tends to broadcast in bite-sized bits, browsing is more a distraction, too passive and diffuse to constitute actual learning. It is far different to affirmatively commit to something that promises to teach us something, however “useless.” Finally, here is another practical purpose for useless learning. Clients, judges, juries, coworkers, opposing counsel—they are all just people. While some are lawyers like ourselves, everyone is different. The more we know about the world and the human experience, the better we can relate to these different constituencies, and the better we are at what we do. So, let’s go out there and learn something useless today.

  • Media, Entertainment and Technology Group - 2017 Year-End Update
    January 19, 2018 MEDIA, ENTERTAINMENT AND TECHNOLOGY GROUP - 2017 YEAR-END UPDATE To Our Clients and Friends: 2017 was a banner year in the media, entertainment, and technology industries, chock full of deals, regulatory changes, and important copyright, trademark, and First Amendment rulings. From Disney to DMCA; television royalties to mechanical royalties; fair use to the FCC; pink slime to piracy; and monkey selfies to Dr. Seuss. It was also the year of the Weinstein scandal, and the ensuing #MeToo and Time's Up movements, which have already upended the Hollywood order. In our Media, Entertainment & Technology practice group's 2017 Year-End Update, we have identified those deals, trends, and rulings that are likely to shape an equally active 2018. And building off our prior semi-annual updates, we continue to follow the arc of developments in the global streaming video industry, the pace of Chinese investment in Hollywood, and eSports, all of which continue to merit a close watch. __________________________ TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

  • 17 Economy, Frontiers, and the Silk Road in Western Historiographies of Graeco- Roman Antiquity
    Sitta von Reden and Michael Speidel 17 Economy, Frontiers, and the Silk Road in Western Historiographies of Graeco- Roman Antiquity I The Mediterranean and Trans-imperial Exchange Although the last few years have seen a surge of publications on Indo-Roman trade and Silk Road exchange,1 the trans-imperial trade connections of the Hellenistic and Roman Empires have never been central to the field of Graeco-Roman history. The Greeks and Romans were Mediterranean societies. Their involvement in Asia beyond Asia Minor was the result of colonization, annexation, and conquest, but not central to their cultural formation, empire building, and economy.2 The Mediter- ranean perspective of studies on Greek and Roman culture, that explains itself by the origin of Graeco-Roman history in Greek and Latin philology, gained further momentum by a new interest in Mediterranean connectivity that developed in the wake of the English translation of Fernand Braudel’s La Méditerranée et le monde méditerranéen à l’époque de Philippe II (1949) in 1972. Since then, Graeco-Roman culture and economy could be even more convincingly, and more comprehensively, located in the Mediterranean Basin.3 The subject of ancient history was no longer defined just by the languages, but instead by geographical, cultural, and economic cohesion of the ancient Mediterranean. In 2000, Horden and Purcell published a volume full of knowledge and insight about ecologies, microclimates, nutrition, set- tlement patterns, and systems of travel and exchange that gave life to the Mediter-
