Leonid Bershidsky: "The Crimean parliament's latest moves to become part of Russia raise a question: Has Russian President Vladimir Putin considered how much it will cost to absorb the peninsula and its roughly 2 million inhabitants? As improvised as the de facto invasion may seem, he probably has. The costs are likely to be high but not unbearable."

The Editors: "Just when the crisis in Crimea appeared to be easing, it has suddenly grown more dangerous. In a decision that surprised even the peninsula's pro-Russians, the local parliament has changed both the date and question for a referendum: On March 16, Crimea may vote to join Russia."

RELIGION: "Thanks to the First Amendment, the least regulated market in America is the market for religion," writes Virginia Postrel. "It's also one of the most competitive. To attract and retain members, religious groups are constantly adapting and innovating, in sometimes surprising ways."

INVESTING: "Along with deleveraging and tapering by the Federal Reserve, protectionist threats and greater regulation will probably hamper economic growth in export-dependent developing countries and the developed nations that are their main customers," A. Gary Shilling writes in the second of a four-part series.

HECKLERS: "It might have escaped your notice that a heckler interrupted oral arguments at the Supreme Court the other day," writes Stephen L. Carter. "He wasn't the first protester to sneak inside, and he won't be the last."

ACCOUNTING: Matt Levine: "The state of my law license is opaque to me, so I don't want to give you legal advice, but here is some legal advice: If you and your little buddies are doing accounting stuff that is bad, or bad-looking, or even just debatable but done with the purest of intentions, don't say any of the following things over e-mail."

SUPREME COURT: "Last fall, when the Nobel Prize in economics went to two scholars with opposing views on the efficiency of markets, my physicist friends raised their eyebrows: What kind of science is that?" Noah Feldman writes. "Now the U.S. Supreme Court has entered the economics-bashing game."

PRESIDENTIAL RACE: "Republicans are contending with a large field of candidates whose ideological and policy profiles are more or less identical, and who have conventional qualifications for the presidency," Jonathan Bernstein writes. "Yet none has any particularly strong claim to the nomination or even to the leadership of particular groups of Republicans."

BITCOIN: "Observing the mystery over the collapse of the Tokyo-based Bitcoin exchange Mt. Gox and the disappearance of 750,000 Bitcoins, I keep thinking about 'The Usual Suspects,'" writes William Pesek. "The so-called virtual currency was supposedly invented by someone or some group of people named Satoshi Nakamoto. Newsweek claims to have tracked him down. ... Fact is, we still don't know for sure who Satoshi Nakamoto is or if this person or people are even Japanese."

NCAA: "Earlier this week, the lawyers for a former West Virginia University running back, Shawne Alston, proposed a class-action lawsuit against the NCAA and the five power conferences," writes Jonathan Mahler. "Alston had to take out a $5,500 loan during his 'free ride.' He deserves to get that money back. But he and the rest of his proposed class deserve a lot more."
