NASHUA, N.H. – Bill Clinton made his first campaign appearances of 2016 on behalf of his wife, Hillary, and immediately provided fodder for wags across the Atlantic, who focused on some young women standing behind him rolling their eyes, frowning and grimacing as he delivered his remarks at a community college.

BOSTON – The agency that runs Boston's public transit services is eyeing fare hikes that could punch a hundred-dollar hole in the pockets of regular subway riders over the course of a year, a move one transit advocate likened to "punishing the victim" following recent service failures.
