Before we got out of the car, I stripped off all my jewelry — my seven thin gold engagement rings; the sapphire ring, a family heirloom; the 1950s man's watch that was always around my wrist; all the earrings from the extra holes in my right ear that so vexed my grandfather.

President Obama faced the same questions from the right over his birthplace, President George W.

You'll need a subscription, but Smith is always worth it for her thoughts on the intersection of art and culture — here, she's grappling with the vexed question of identity and appropriation, and siding (as she has before) with creative license and the primacy of the sentence over any kind of political calculation.

Liliane Bettencourt, the French heiress to the L'Oréal cosmetics fortune and a family legacy of fascist associations, whose final years were vexed by allegations that she had fallen under the sway of a younger man and given him $1.4 billion, died on Wednesday at her home in the Paris suburb Neuilly-sur-Seine.

Trump already hates sanctuary cities, so he's really going to hate sanctuary states Trump already hates sanctuary cities, so he's really going to hate sanctuary states If the Trump administration was vexed about sanctuary cities' resistance to participating in federal immigration enforcement efforts, it's really not going to like the latest development: sanctuary states.

Their sleuthing promises to solve a conundrum that has vexed biologists for 160 years, and in the process reveal how we might be able to manipulate evolution to make the world's cities—projected to be home to two-thirds of humanity by 212—resilient enough to endure the catastrophes that are coming their way.

Yehoshua Kenaz, "Infiltration," an astonishing novel by a great Israeli master who ought to be better known, this one set in an army basic training camp populated by recruits all disabled in one way or another; amidst the diamond-sharp dialogue, the horny sweat and sarcasm, a subtle allegory about the perennially vexed issue of strength and Jewishness.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson insisted the UK would not pay the 39 billion pounds ($47.88 billion) divorce bill in full in the event of a no-deal Brexit on October 31, as EU officials said it was "squarely and firmly" up to Britain to find a solution to the vexed issue of the Irish border.

"The summit could certainly be one of the most high-wire moments because it will require President Trump to make split-second decisions and judgments with the leader of a country that has vexed the United States for the last 70 years," says Frank Aum, a North Korea expert at the US Institute of Peace think tank.

Once inside, I proceed to be continually vexed by things like how crowded it is, how many times I have to quietly murmur "excuse me" before the sea of shopping carts is parted and I am granted access to the elusive cheese shelf, and whether or not that lady behind me just rammed her cart into the backs of my legs on purpose.

The previous permanent attorney general, Jeff Sessions, recused himself from the government's Russia probes in March 2017 following reports about his contacts with Russia's then-ambassador to the U.S. Oversight duties fell to Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein — a circumstance that vexed Trump, who viciously and publicly criticized Sessions' over his recusal until the beleaguered Sessions left the administration in November.

When you're asked to write on the subject (by this magazine, whose former president and publisher, Hamilton Fish, resigned in 2017 after members of staff expressed concerns about his behavior), nearly two years have passed since the activist Tarana Burke's hashtag took on its second life, and the relationship between individual shamings and entrenched institutional habits is more vexed than ever.

He continued to fade as the summer wore on, ultimately facing the same problem that vexed most in the historically large Democratic presidential field: Faced with too many options to consider, many voters had already narrowed their choices to a handful of candidates they believed could win -- and there was little those who missed that cut could do to change their trajectory.

For liberal observers, including journalists, activists and Bernie Sanders, whose campaign sent a batch of pizzas to express its support, the protest represented a rare opportunity to set aside the vexed and divisive realities of America's dying coal industry—its pollution, its outsize political influence, its unanimous support for Donald Trump (for whom 85% of Bloody Harlanders voted)—and reignite the class war.

There's something abstracted in writing all that, both because I didn't know Fernandez in any way beyond feeling a half-vexed awe at the way he shredded the baseball team I care about and because, in watching the Marlins play three games against the New York Mets this week, the raw and un-abstracted reality of his loss was so unmistakable and crushingly visible.

While it appears obvious on its face that the members of the conference committee would all come from an appropriations panel -- the measure the group will be negotiating, or attempting to conference, is a product of those two committees -- it also creates an interesting dynamic on an issue that for years has flummoxed, vexed and outright defeated every legislative effort to find a compromise: immigration.

Bryant, who has lately been vexed by a sore right shoulder, has openly acknowledged making an effort to suit up for games in other cities around the league, where fans get one or two chances per season to see him, at the expense of games in Los Angeles, where his team plays 4003 times per season (including what are technically road games against the Clippers).

It also is a prime example of what has vexed the Trump administration as China has reverted over the past 303 months to the kind of intrusions into American companies and government agencies that President Barack Obama thought he had ended in 2015 in an agreement with Mr. Xi.

But I had already read many of those, and they had left me convinced that she has been quietly conducting, from that vexed and ever-expanding blot on the American fabric where white and black bleed into each other, one of the smartest, funniest and most profound interrogations of the racial madness that governs and stifles our national life that I had ever encountered.

"[She] would sit on her bed and she had this big metal wastebasket and she would have her secretary get a piece of clothing from someone who had vexed her, crossed her in her view, and she would take this piece of clothing and she would mumble incoherently and she would then set it on fire and hold it over this metal wastebasket," Hyman explains in one video.

The journalist Lisa Taddeo has produced something of the sort in "Three Women," a vexed, nearly decade-long investigation into the sex lives and desires of three American women: Maggie, a North Dakota teenager in a clandestine relationship with her English teacher; Lina, a married homemaker in Indiana having an affair with her high school boyfriend; and lovely, aloof Sloane, from Newport, R.I., whose husband likes watching her with other men.

As seems always the case with geopolitics, it is among players who want a piece of the action: the EU appears less vexed about BRI as a brute force power play and more that its companies compete on an equal footing for projects along the route: In a scoop last month, the German financial newspaper Handelsblatt was leaked a report in which 27 of the 28 EU ambassadors to China (all except Hungary's) criticized BRI.

Biographies of artists are always vexed by the counternarrative set in motion by the art itself — the story of Nabokov is the story of where he went and what he ate and so forth; but it is also the story of "Lolita" or "Pale Fire," which loom over and apart from the facts of Nabokov's day-to-day existence in a way that the work of, say, a famous politician does not.

Karoblis's visit, which featured a speech on Wednesday at the Atlantic Council think tank and will include meetings with members of Congress and with Army Secretary Mark Esper, comes a month before the next NATO summit — and just after President Donald Trump vexed some of America's closest allies at the G-7 summit last week when he said Russia should be invited back into the group, which was known as the G-8 before Russia was kicked out for annexing Crimea from Ukraine in 2014.

Other legislative proposals are intended to tackle the vexed question of "transitional justice": creating an office for missing persons to chronicle the thousands of people abducted or killed in the war (see article); replacing the Prevention of Terrorism Act, which has allowed suspects to be held without trial for up to 18 months; providing for compensation for property seized or destroyed in the war; setting up a truth-and-reconciliation commission; and, separately and most controversially, creating a hybrid court involving foreign judges and lawyers, where those accused of perpetrating the worst atrocities may be tried.

Other elements concerning the Lib Dem peers at this stage include threats to privileged communications, such as between lawyers and their clients; so-called "request filters," which imply a behind the scenes attempt by the government to build a searchable database of citizen data (including pulling in data from ICRs); the "vexed question" (as Strasburger put it) of bulk powers — currently under independent review by QC David Anderson, which was another concession pushed for by the Labour party; inconsistencies in authorization mechanisms for intercept warrants; and the need to ensure judicial commissioners, who are set to approve and review warrants, are rigorously independent of the government that appoints them.

LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Theresa May's office has dismissed as "speculation" a newspaper report that suggests an all-UK customs deal will be written into the legally binding agreement governing Britain's withdrawal from the EU The Sunday Times said the plan would resolve the vexed issue of the Irish border, which is the main stumbling block in the Brexit talks, by avoiding the need to treat Northern Ireland differently from the rest of the UK. With just five months to go until it exits the EU, Britain's divorce talks are at an impasse, fuelling huge uncertainty among businesses and causing the value of sterling GBP= to see-saw on any news about a possible breakthrough in the talks.
