But he did not redeem his credibility when he precariously bombed Qaddafi out of Libya — given that he perverted a U.N. resolution rather than confirmed a prior ultimatum, and he seemed to whine about his wrong action rather than be willing to right it by sending forces to stanch the terrorist wound he had inflicted.

Then again I was between the ages of 16 and 21, a time that seems stressful until real life careens into your bank account and your mind, indelibly leaving its cracks or at least precariously papering over them with overdraft notices, adverts for new housemates and notebooks scrawled with handwritten intentions that life won't always be this way.

All these were in evidence again at this year's festival, where some of the strongest, most memorable titles included "Leave No Trace," a deeply affecting story from Debra Granik ("Winter's Bone") about a veteran and his teenage daughter — movingly played by Ben Foster and Thomasin Harcourt McKenzie — living precariously off the grid in the Pacific Northwest.

Progressive politicians around the country, who have brought so much energy to successfully fight for a higher minimum wage — and in New York, for example, against an Amazon headquarters in Queens that would have driven housing prices up in a precariously gentrifying part of the city — have applied considerably less vigor toward the project of combating homelessness.

Hays has helped unaccompanied minors from Central America who had been raped on their journey here, de-facto orphans whose mothers were dead and fathers were in prison, girls who were living precariously on their own to escape abuse at home, and, once, a young woman whose parents ran a meth ring and were planning to pimp her out.

The biggest prize of last night's Oscars did not go, as had been anticipated, to either the cutting racial satire of Get Out or the precariously messy drama about rage and revenge that was Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri — two films that, in typically dramatic awards narrative fashion, had been positioned as rivals in a battle for the soul of the industry.

Pretty much every book in the house is piled up in a stack like this one — row upon row of stacked-up books rising six to eight feet from the dark wood floors, these gangly towers of dog-eared tomes, some of them teetering so precariously that when you see one of the López children run past, you might involuntarily flinch.

Placed at the beginning of the show, it's an assemblage made from the personal effects — bedding, clothing, books and a television set precariously piled on sawhorses — of Juan Manuel Montes, a 2100-year-old Mexican man who had lived in the United States since he was 211 and who was deported in February, well in advance of President Trump's move to end DACA.

For us Generation Y-ers, precariously balanced between Generation X and millennials, it will leave your synapses blazing in remembrance of iconic pop culture ephemera: Shag stickers; Rat Fink hot rod kits; the HOUSE33 clothing line that directly referenced California skate culture of the early '90s; the imagery of artist Chris Cooper, whose iconic "smoking devil" design bears more than a passing resemblance to Cruz himself.

Meanwhile the year-old EU-US Privacy Shield agreement, which was put in place last year as a replacement mechanism for governing personal data flows between those two regions (after the ECJ invalidated its predecessor arrangement), is already looking precariously placed, and critics maintain the agreement has merely papered over a fundamental disconnect between EU privacy rights and US government national security data collection programs.

Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads Crys Yin, If You Were Home, You'd Be Here By Now, installation view (photo by the author for Hyperallergic) Walking through the doors of a button-making shop on Mott Street, precariously part of both Chinatown and Little Italy, will lead you to Crys Yin's latest solo exhibition, If You Were Home, You'd Be Here By Now, at Amy Li Projects.

In the final scene of an uncanny act of Brooklynsploitation (during which there are more cheers for the Golden State Warriors than the Brooklyn Nets in a basketball game demo; and images of a nattily dressed man sketching the Manhattan Bridge, perched precariously on some construction scaffolding; and eager, young creatives using the Apple Pencil on fire escapes), a performance from Lana Del Rey closed out the show.

These kinds of cyber-rave sounds are most at home on SoundCloud, and you'd probably never hear it in an established Singaporean club—which is why hearing it out of precariously stacked speakers in a dingy hole-in-the-wall venue was so exciting: a new rave scene was fermenting out of the simple desire to thrash around to music you could usually only hear on the internet.

The figures parallel each other in their positions, but their engagement with the flood (rendered with brown acrylic paint) is markedly different: The man stands in contrapposto, half-submerged in the water, resting his haul on his shoulders, and containing it precariously with his hands, while the woman stands on a wood palette with her belongings tightly configured and resting on a steamer trunk set directly on her head.

No LikePoor app selection, needs more degrees of freedomRight now, virtual reality on the cheap requires either a piece of cardboard in which you precariously set your smartphone for some barebones "immersive" virtual reality, or headsets like the Samsung Gear VR line or Google Daydream (headsets with models costing anywhere from $65 to $100), which add a much-needed layer of controls—and more comfortable headgear—to the mix, but not much else.

Meanwhile, the Trump administration and its legion of right-wing judges, lobbyists, and supporters have ignited a full-on backlash to stop LGBTQ progress, including repealing policies that were precariously established to begin with as Congress continued to fail to act (like plans to allow doctors to discriminate against transgender people, repealing transgender service in the military, and no longer defending LGBTQ people in federal discrimination lawsuits, to just name a few).

The three plays — all directed by Lindsay Anderson, with whom Mr. Storey developed what he called "an almost mystical relationship" — were "In Celebration," about the turbulent reunion of a miner's family scarred by the death of a son; "The Contractor," in which wrangling workmen were seen first raising and then lowering a tent for a wedding reception; and "Home," in which John Gielgud and Ralph Richardson portrayed elderly men precariously surviving in a mental institution.

Among the highlights are Luciano Fabro's precariously suspended marble slab, "Efeso II" (1986); Michelangelo Pistoletto's "Sfera di giornali," (1966), a giant ball of newspapers soaked and squashed together that was a part of a series of 30 works the artist made between 1965 and '66 known as "The Minus Objects;" and Giulio Paolini's dramatic rayon rag installation "Amor e Psciche" (1981), which Olnick and Spanu claim as the piece that got them hooked on collecting Arte Povera.

Yet the real coup de grace over the iPad, and indeed over any other 2-in-1 or tablet at this price range, is the hinge on the back of the Surface Go. It's the same hinge found in the Surface Pro and, as silly as it sounds, it's a very good reason to buy the Surface Go. With my iPad, I have to precariously fold the cover if I want to give it tilt while reading on my bed.

In "Vesta the Johnny" (2015) a vaudeville male impersonator, based on real life male-impersonator Vesta Tilley, stands pensively in thought, beside a gigantic egg; in "Teetering on the Ledge of a Transient Thought" (2016) a dish of eggs is precariously balanced on a man's head and a shell and bat adorn his face; and in "A Perfect Gentleman" (2016) three egg-like mushrooms sprout from a patch on a man's head and a butterfly and pink rose adorn his face.

Beside him, his modest cortège: the steward, tall and lengthily wrapped in a livery of black velvet, a powdered wig on his head and lace pursed at his collar and wrists, his spectacles at high perch; the scout, not yet sixteen, pale and freckled in his olive sash and khaki shorts; and the dancing bear, in a comically small fez and a Jacobean ruff, precariously balanced on a confetti-speckled ball, an Atlas in reverse, his fabulously razored claws never deigning to touch the ground.
