Boston cannot compete in the global economy when its trains are on fire, like what happened on the MBTA’s Orange Line last week. Our transportation system is in crisis, and no one wants the chaos and cost overruns of another Big Dig to fix it.

The battle to oust ISIS from the Iraqi city of Mosul is shaping-up to be long and bloody and brutal, but in the end somebody will declare victory.
And when that happens, experts say, it will likely be a mirage.
There will be no way of knowing for sure whether ISIS has been completely vanquished because it's a guerrilla group that's not going to wave the white flag, they say.
