Love the title for this one

As usual... Overreacting journalism

Only time will tell

about this - But the author does have a point.

Wonderful piece on economics of Net Neutrality

http://www.livemint.com/Industry/hz8BtbDLFnLkV69HU2EWUP/The-ambiguous-economics-of-Net-neutrality.html

Again, it is not clear how net neutrality works as of now. Under this situation maintaining it is better.

Well

What can you do?

Things go against your plans and nothing you do can change that. The hardest part is to see the people close to you suffer immensely for something we could not have controlled. But, this is life - creating self doubt and creating obstacles. The best we can do is be happy and give your best. If it does not work out the way you want it.. May be it wasn't meant to be. So, let us see how the future unfolds.

Hopefully we will have the strength!

A sensible piece

recognizing unilateral action of US alone was not what brought Iran to the negotiating table here

See for example this sentence
As noted, countries like India and South Korea, who don’t feel threatened by an Iran nuclear weapon, will be only too happy to find a pretext to break out of the sanctions—perhaps tentatively at first but in a rush as others do. It will be hard to argue the rationale for sanctions, which, from the perspective of nearly every nation, will have achieved their purpose—bringing Iran to the table to negotiate serious limitations on its nuclear program.
I particularly agree with this conclusion
Enacting new, tough sanctions in an effort to force Iran toward a “better” deal would mystify and alarm the rest of the world, isolating and weakening us. Such sanctions would crumble under their own weight —amounting to, as Shakespeare said, “sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
