FROM THE EDITORS» 

U.S.:
By some measures, President Barack Obama's State of the Union address "was an ambitious speech, calling for an increase in the minimum wage; universal preschool; legislation to slow down climate change; immigration reform; voting reform; negotiations for a free-trade agreement with Europe; and winning seasons for all hometown teams. (OK, we made that last one up. But surely the president supports it.) At the same time, however, Obama had a way of pulling back, of making his ambitions seem less grand."

EU: "Successive rounds of budgeting have so far failed to get the EU's fiscal priorities right. . . . Our advice to members of the EU Parliament is this: Worry less about reversing the overall cut and instead shift resources to where they can stimulate trade, growth and high-value job creation."

"As the U.S. population ages, and with the effects of the financial crisis promising to linger for some time, economic growth will be lower than we would like. This is why the federal government needs to do more to help Americans earn college degrees."

"Nothing distinguished the papacy of Pope Benedict XVI so much as the way in which he is leaving. We should be grateful that he realizes his body is failing him -- most people in power do not -- and is abdicating. But let's not forget that it was Benedict who stood mostly mute as the sexual abuse of children by priests continued."

"Almost 70 percent of Americans have been overweight or obese in recent years, and more than 78 million people in the country have been counted as obese. The problem has many sources, but one of them is obvious: increased portion sizes."

"For decades, the Bay area has thrown federal, state and local money at new commuter-transit projects, while the share of Silicon Valley residents who use mass transportation has barely budged."

"As Bill Ackman, Dan Loeb and Carl Icahn do battle over Herbalife Ltd., it is impossible to predict which hedge-fund manager has bet correctly and will 'win.' I do know exactly who the losers will be: hedge-fund investors as a group."
