Dems trade jabs in virtual debate
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, competing for votes ahead of tomorrow's critical primaries, fought over the gas tax yesterday, with Obama calling Clinton's plan for a gas tax holiday a "Washington gimmick," and the New York senator dismissing as "elitist" the widespread criticism of her proposal.

Soaring prices upend lives on Nantucket
As the cost of oil skyrockets, prices everywhere are on the rise. But on Nantucket, where the mainland is an hour's ferry ride away and everything from flour to diapers has to be shipped over, it is even worse. (By Tania deLuzuriaga, Boston Globe)
In teen's memory, a mental health push
Sixteen-year-old Yolanda M. Torres of Plymouth was supposed to be a poster child for the proposal currently in the Legislature to improve mental health care for children. But not like this. In late January, in a violent impulse she left no note to explain, Yolanda committed suicide. Now a coalition of advocates for mentally ill children plans to nickname the bill "Yolanda's Law."
(By Carey Goldberg, Boston Globe)
An appetite for tradition
In the old North End, Saturday was tripe day. The cow stomach bubbled in pots in kitchens all over the neighborhood. These days, tripe is harder to come by, available in just a few restaurants in the neighborhood and no longer popular with home cooks.
