SPYING: "Call Edward Snowden what you will: traitor, hero or simply a naive young man. Maybe all three," the Editors write. "At the South by Southwest Interactive conference today, he was both subject and object, clarifying some of the defining public-policy challenges of the digital age even as he illustrated the difficulty of resolving them."

UKRAINE CONFLICT:

The Editors: "The world's condemnation of Vladimir Putin's power grab in Ukraine is missing one important voice: China's. That's no surprise. Since assuming office, Chinese President Xi Jinping has put great emphasis on building up his relationship with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Both men fancy themselves strong, charismatic leaders bent on restoring their nations to greatness. But if China wants to be the world leader it claims to be, it cannot afford to sit on the sidelines this time."

Leonid Bershidsky: "Crimea's non-Russian minorities aren't the only ones whose rights may be trampled as Russian President Vladimir Putin moves to annex the Ukrainian peninsula. His critics in Russia, too, face a frightening future."

GENDER: "All right-thinking people seem convinced that Barbie instills in her pre-school fans a false and remarkably detailed standard of beauty. Hence the widespread praise for Lammily, the latest anti-Barbie concept doll. ... 'Average is beautiful,' proclaims her maker." But as Virginia Postrel writes, average is neither desirable nor realistic.

HERBALIFE: The New York Times published "a well-researched opus on Bill Ackman's hilariously inept crusade against Herbalife Ltd., the nutritional-products distributor," writes Jonathan Weil. "I saw nothing in the Times article suggesting Ackman or his firm did anything illegal. ... But as an investment thesis, shorting Herbalife has been a horrible idea."

OBAMACARE:

Megan McArdle: "Unite Here, a union that represents service industry workers, has released a pretty blistering report condemning Obamacare. The report itself is not particularly interesting; its economic analysis is a mishmash of dubious claims and complaints about giving money to insurers but not to unions. On the other hand, the existence of this report is very interesting indeed. ... The spectacle tells you a lot about the politics of the Affordable Care Act and the modern Democratic Party."

Jonathan Bernstein: "Is the Affordable Care Act starting to reduce the number of uninsured Americans? Democrats and ACA supporters are buzzing about a new Gallup poll showing that the percentage of uninsured has dropped to 15.9 percent, the lowest level since 2008. I'd be cautious, however."

SUPREME COURT: "One of the great pleasures and benefits afforded by the Supreme Court is the illusion of historical continuity," writes Noah Feldman. The U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Brandt Revocable Trust v. U.S. "is an object lesson in this important form of historical make-believe."

FUKUSHIMA: "Does Shinzo Abe love soldiers who died during World War II more than Japanese living today?" William Pesek: "If Prime Minister Abe spent even a fraction of his time helping tsunami-devastated towns and Fukushima's nuclear refugees instead of fighting with Japan's neighbors over history, Tohoku citizens would he much better off."

WALL STREET: "Aspiring mergers and acquisitions bankers can learn a lot from reading Delaware Chancery Court opinions, which provide useful and legally binding advice on how not to do M&A," writes Matt Levine. "Friday's decision holding Royal Bank of Canada liable for mucking up the 2011 sale process of ambulance company Rural Metro Corp. is a particularly rich vein."
