Neighbors Say North Dakota Pipeline Protests Disrupt Lives and Livelihoods

Ranchers and residents in the conservative, overwhelmingly white countryside view the demonstrations with a mix of frustration and fear, reflecting the deep cultural divides and racial attitudes.

The disruption is intentional.

Rodarte Brings Back Youthful, D.I.Y. Headbands and Barettes

Models donned handmade hair accessories crafted with silk, chiffon, crystals and sequins — leftover from making the label’s spring 2017 collection.

The appearance of improvisation is not an accident.

When Teenagers Bristle at ‘How Was School?’

Kids may receive the question as adults would a cheerful: “Describe all the tedious things you did today!”

Bristling does little good.

Sooner is better.   As soon as you can is best.

Allow Me to Introduce What’s His Name

A forgetful moment as two old friends take a walk amid the morning bustle on Madison Avenue.

YES.  Memory is not dependable.

Why Fidgeting Is Good Medicine

A new study finds that toe-tapping, foot-wagging and other body movements help keep your blood flowing.

The fidgeting helps maintain peripheral circulation.

Early termination is best.

The Upshot

How to View a Richer Year for the Poor and Middle Class

It was one of the best years of income growth in nearly half century for the poor and the middle class, but 2015 still couldn’t undo years of decline.

"But no matter how good 2015 seems to be, it cannot undo the years of decline since the recession. If you measure income growth from a longer horizon, 10 years, the picture changes drastically. In addition to greater variance in growth (because we’re taking a longer view), you see that the balance of growth tips toward the rich — and that 2015 does nothing to change that trend."

Watch the denominator.

At Altuzarra, a Party-Ready Touch of Glitter

The makeup artist Tom Pecheux created a “sweaty, sexy, naughty” look — and at least one model didn’t want to take it off after the show.

A perfect paint job.

Development gets a foot in the door.

This week’s properties include a Tudor in Athens, Tenn., a condo in an old Chicago church and a contemporary in Galisteo, N.M.

The air conditioning will run most of the year.

Fail Better, America, on this 9/11 Anniversary

Don’t believe in American disunity. Lift your gazes beyond Yeats’ “weasels fighting in a hole.”

The trauma of the attack transformed into a need to strike blindly.

We have not yet learned to strike at the culture that sent the hijackers.

Could Ancient Remedies Hold the Answer to the Looming Antibiotics Crisis?

One researcher thinks the drugs of the future might come from the past: botanical treatments long overlooked by Western medicine.

People know things.  Never fail to learn from others.

Anything that can always win will dominate.

Once considered an adult disease, it has become more common in children, largely because of increased obesity.

Fructose.

Rebecca Daube, Peter D’Agostino

The bride and groom grew up in New Canaan, Conn., but their paths didn’t cross until 2013 when they met at a bar in New York.

Sooner is better.  As soon as you can is best.

Welcome to Carlisle, the British City With a Climate Change Bull’s-Eye

The city was flooded in 2005, and again four years later. And again in December. In the northwest corner of England, global warming is not a distant threat.

Cheap space is cheap for a reason.
Polders would work.  It would be cheaper than raising the city.

Stabbing Attack in Australia Is Linked to the Islamic State

The police said a 22-year-old man with “strong, extremist beliefs inspired by ISIS” had attacked another man at a park outside Sydney.

ISIS knows what it is doing.
Let secular government do its work.

‘Mischling,’ a Holocaust Tale of Twin Sisters in Mengele’s Grip

The 12-year-old heroines in Affinity Konar’s affecting novel seem to have been partly inspired by Eva and Miriam Mozes, twins at Auschwitz.

Let these mistakes not be repeated.

Collective guilt is one of the mistakes.
