WALL STREET: "Here's some good news for anyone who ever gets ripped off by a securities broker. Wall Street's self-policing body has decided to make its mandatory-arbitration system a little less rigged," Jonathan Weil writes. "The bad news? It still will be plenty rigged."

GUN VIOLENCE: "The shooting rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December 2012 horrified the nation, ignited emotional calls for action, and led Congress to pass -- well, nothing," the Editors write. "School shootings may have fallen off Page One, but they're still a national problem."

BULLYING: "After months of speculation about what went down between NFL players Richie Incognito and Jonathan Martin, we have a definitive answer: pure, unabashed, unadulterated bullying," writes Kavitha A. Davidson.

GREENLIGHT CAPITAL: "There's a long history of people suing media-esque entities (blogs! Seeking Alphas!) to demand that they give up their source-esque people (sources! anonymous commenters!), but I haven't really paid much attention to any of it," writes Matt Levine. "My impression is that sometimes people go to jail rather than give up identities, though I guess I don't expect that of Seeking Alpha."

POLITICAL PARTIES: Jonathan Bernstein: "You can't begin to understand just how central the parties are to U.S. politics right now unless you understand that formal party organizations such as the Democratic National Committee or the Senate's Republican Conference are only some of the components of a networked party. ... Virtually no one shows up in Congress (or, for that matter, at the White House) with all that much independence from their party."

'DOWNTON ABBEY': One thing about PBS's hit show drives Megan McArdle "completely batty, so much so that I've considered swearing it off: the relationship between the servants and their employers."

JOS. A. BANK: "There's no real reason for stylish clothes to correlate with stylish PowerPoint slides, but you'd have to say that Jos. A. Bank's presentation laying out its acquisition of Eddie Bauer does not betray a sophisticated eye for fashion," writes Matt Levine. "But there is much to love in this deal."

SUPER-RICH: Barry Ritholtz: "The news media seem to have discovered something that economic wonks and number crunchers have understood for quite a while: How much richer the super-rich are than everyone else, including the merely rich."

KOBE BRYANT: It's hard to imagine the Los Angeles Lakers without him, Kavitha A. Davidson writes. "This year has given a grim glimpse at the future: At 18-35, the team will probably miss the postseason for the first time in a decade, the names on the court are nearly unrecognizable, and the television audience, the bread-and-butter of the franchise's revenue stream, wants nothing to do with it on the national level."

ECONOMIC FORECASTING: "Maybe it's a coincidence, but employment growth, car sales, home sales, capital goods orders, industrial production and retail sales have all been weaker than economists' forecasts," writes Matthew C. Klein. "If the weather is to blame, it could skew our ability to tell how the economy is doing for the next few years."

UNDER ARMOUR: "Heading into the Sochi Games, Shani

Davis was the favorite to win gold in the men's 1,000-meter speedskate," writes Kavitha A. Davidson. "His disappointing, eighth-place finish in Wednesday's finals has been explained away by his age, possible injury and even faulty blades. But a new potential culprit has emerged: his uniform."
