David Lidstone lives in the woods of New Hampshire along the Merrimack River, with solar panels on his cabin and remaining self-reliant and off the grid by growing his own food, cutting his own firewood, and taking care of his cat and chickens. After nearly three decades, the current landowner now seeks to tear down Lidstone’s cabin, but Lidstone is not without supporters in the legal battle. Jodie Gedeon, a kayaker who befriended Lidstone about 20 years ago, is helping by organizing a petition drive and collecting money for property taxes with other supporters of Lidstone....

These systems are nice because they can’t clog up with leaves or debris like classic gutters do. They’re also unique to the shape of your home, so you can make them fit any way you’d like. However, they can make puddles around your house if you aren’t careful. The materials for a drip edge are usually pretty cheap, but the cost of labor can vary greatly. Drip edges can be a little tough to install if your house is already fully built....

Soft wax is the kind you’ll usually get for at-home kits, which is another reason waxing will be less painful if you go to a pro. Most pros recommend you get waxed every 4-6 weeks. Hair does grow at different rates, but once you’ve had a couple of appointments you’ll have a good feel for how often you need to schedule them. If your skin is dry on the day of your appointment, massage in a moisturizer in the morning before your appointment in the afternoon....

And it is, first and foremost, a visual delight, a Victorian picture book come to life, from its brief prologue in India through its darkly enchanted recreation of Misselthwaite Manor on the Yorkshire moors. Kate Maberly, a solemn child with wide cheeks and huge, pensive brown eyes, plays 10-year-old Mary Lennox, orphaned when her parents die in an earthquake in India. A spoiled and angry child who has never learned to cry, she’s shipped off to the care of her English uncle, Lord Craven (John Lynch), a recluse in the 10th year of mourning for his late wife, the twin sister of Mary’s dead mother....

As someone who lived through the wartime period of Swiss-American relations, I can attest that the times were much more complicated than people now realize. I’m one of the few surviving members of the Swiss team that negotiated the “Washington Agreement,” the 1946 treaty between the Swiss and the Allies that dealt with war reparations and Nazi loot. I know that what you read in the papers these days is not the full story....

The Biden administration’s aim to rejoin the 2015 nuclear agreement, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), would be disastrous and self-defeating, not just for the United States but also for our partners in the Middle East. Sanctions relief would give Iran tens of billions of dollars to spend on drones, missiles and militias that pose region-wide threats, including against American and allied troops—just as happened when the deal was first implemented....

Welcome to Con Air, another pumped-up, amphetamine-paced action movie from the producer of ““The Rock,’’ Jerry Bruckheimer. In the production notes, Bruckheimer comments on screenwriter Scott Rosenberg’s project. ““It was certainly great writing, but I instantly surmised that the script needed more heart. It had to be more character driven, which is a common theme throughout all my films, no matter what the action content might be.'' Maybe I missed something (the thunderous noise level makes it hard to catch all the character-driven subtleties of the script), but it did seem to be the ““action content’’ that was grabbing the crowd....

Toy A in the battle for holiday-season supremacy is a wooden replica of a standard garden slug. You can pick it up, you can put it on a table. “This is not a hot-hot item,” says Jessica Waxman, a well-groomed woman who stands before the slugs with order pad poised. “It’s a steady item. There is a bookstore on Nantucket that purchases quite a few of these.” Toy B is the Attack of the Killer Tomatoes action figures from Mattel....

Police quickly arrested Antoine Jones, 16, on adult charges of assault with intent to murder. Jones’s lawyer says he’s innocent, but if convicted he could be sentenced to life in prison. Police were investigating a possible gang connection, but it seemed more likely that the shooting capped a day of escalating tension between unorganized kids from rival neighborhoods. If Jones ends up in prison, he would be following in the footsteps of his father, who has been serving time for his role in a notorious cocaine ring since Antoine was 5 years old....

Brazil became a target last summer because investors feared Argentine contagion and the left-wing candidacy of Luiz Inacio (Lula) da Silva, who was elected president on Oct. 27. As of this writing, the jury is still out on how the markets will respond to Lula’s stewardship. Other less-developed countries that have been faithfully following International Monetary Fund prescriptions are also in trouble because of depressed commodity prices, lack of access to developed markets and weak domestic demand....
