UKRAINE CRISIS  

The Editors: With their decision yesterday to escalate sanctions against Russia over Ukraine, Europe's leaders "have finally injected a little spine into their diplomatic posture. The need to respond to Russian President Vladimir Putin's provocations in Ukraine has been clear for some time, and it's hard to understand why it has taken Europe so long. At the same time, resolving that crisis -- and meeting the broader challenge posed by a revanchist Russia -- will require not only the continued unity of the European Union and U.S., but also a willingness to engage Russia."

Leonid Bershidsky: "Europe's new financial sanctions against Russia will be among the first meaningful ones the West has introduced since the Ukraine crisis started. But punishing rich Russians is not exactly new territory for the EU -- it has been doing so since last year in Cyprus."

WALL STREET  

@tobinharshaw (Tobin Harshaw): One relationship remains sacred: "SEC's money can't break hooker-client bond" By @matt_levine (Matt Levine)

Levine: I figured it might be mildly amusing "to track the development of merger buzzwords over time, so I assigned a platoon of interns to amass and analyze the data. Here's the rough frequency of various buzzwords in merger press releases over the last 10 years."

INVESTING  

Noah Smith: "Why are you and I so bad at managing our investments? ... According to a recent paper by a team of German economists from Goethe University in Frankfurt, there is one mistake above all others that hamstrings individual investors -- the failure to diversify."

JOBS  

Virginia Postrel: "For many part-time workers in the post-crash economy, life has become like endless jury duty. Scheduling software now lets employers constantly optimize who's working, better balancing labor costs and likely demand. The process demands enormous flexibility from part-time workers, sometimes requiring them to be on call all the time without knowing when they'll work or how much they'll earn."

MONEY  

Megan McArdle: "A few weeks back, when I wrote about the joys of the 15-year mortgage, I got the same reaction from a lot of people: 'Why would you repay a loan when at these low rates, it's practically free money?' ... I don't think it's quite as arithmetically unreasonable as my interlocutors suggest."

POLITICS  

Jonathan Bernstein: "The good news? Senator Ted Cruz of Texas has dropped his mostly-meaningless holds on State Department nominations. The bad news? Senate Republicans continue to impose an across-the-board virtual hold on every executive branch nomination."

ENERGY  

Leonid Bershidsky: "Conventional wisdom states that renewable energy cannot cover 100 percent of the world's needs: It's too expensive and too scarce, and switching would be inefficient while hydrocarbon resources are still plentiful. A group of 28 U.S. scientists and engineers has attempted to make the opposite case."

SPORTS  

Kavitha A. Davidson: "Between talk radio hosts disparaging female sideline reporters, another respected reporter being sidelined herself, and the NFL sending the strong message that it simply doesn't care about its female fans, there's been little for us to celebrate -- until now. On Tuesday, the National Basketball Players Association elected Michele Roberts as its new executive director -- the first female head of a major American sports union."

CARS  

Edward Niedermeyer: "America has had a rocky recovery from the 2007-08 financial crisis, but one group of Americans has done quite well: car dealers. ... As the economists Amir Sufi and Atif Mian point out in their new book 'House of Debt,' one of the big factors supporting overall retail spending in the U.S. since 2008 has been the expansion of auto credit."

COMPANIES  

Kirsten Salyer: "You can't book a treehouse on Airbnb's new business service. ... That's a good thing. Going business casual could just be the thing to make the almost-six-year-old startup finally grow up."
