Question: The Las Vegas hotel room used in a mass shooting that killed 58 people will continue to remain unoccupied.
  Stephen Paddock  opened fire earlier this month from the corner suite on Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino's 32nd floor before taking  his  own life  and the hotel says it will not rent  the room  again.
"This was a terrible tragedy perpetrated by an evil man. We have no intention of renting  that room  " MGM Resorts International  which owns the property  said in a statement to the Las Vegas Sun.
It was not immediately clear whether  the room  will be used for some other purpose or be marked in any way with a remembrance of those who died on the concert grounds below  the room .

Question: âThe Honors are the greatest weekend of the year  and it is also the bane of our existence  â Deborah Rutter  said with a laugh. For the president of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts  the annual Kennedy Center Honors  airing on CBS on Dec. 26 and honoring dancer Carmen de Lavallade  rapper LL Cool J  television producer and writer Norman Lear and singers Gloria Estefan and Lionel Richie  is a welcome national spotlight on the memorial to the late president. But thatâs all anyone seems to know about the the white jewel box on the Potomac.
âWe really like to think about the other 364 days of the year  and all of the programming that happens on those days â  Rutter  told me in the latest episode of âCape Up.â âWhat I love about being here at the nationâs cultural center is that we have really a mandate to welcome all of the performing arts. It is not just a performing arts center for one assumed art form or another.â
I bet you didnât know that hip hop was one of those art forms at the Kennedy Center and that Q-Tip is its artistic director. âThis is a first â  Rutter  said. âAnd as far as I know  there is no other artistic director for hip-hop â¦ anywhere in probably the world. And weâre very proud to have Q-Tip here leading  guiding and inspiring us.â
While she didnât need much convincing   Rutter  allowed that there could be others who might â for fear of what it could mean for the other arts. âJust because we are bringing in more programming that includes hip-hop artists  it does not mean that weâre doing less dance or less international programming or less of the National Symphony Orchestra â she said. âIt just means that weâre doing more  that we have thrown open the doors of the Kennedy Center  and we are ensuring that all are welcome here.â

There are nine performance spaces at the Kennedy Center that are in use all year. In addition to the orchestra and  the Washington National Opera  Rutter  noted the 46-year-old institution has âa magnificent  world-recognized ballet season. We have contemporary dance  we have jazz  we have a huge jazz series  chamber music  recitals  comedy  international programming.â
Listen to the podcast to hear  Rutter  talk further about the work of the Kennedy Center and how it fits into the cultural life of Washington.  She  goes into what it is like to be the local performing arts center for members of Congress  foreign diplomats and âquite a number of justices from the Supreme Court.â But  Rutter  insists none of those constituencies tries to exert influence over programming.
âHere at the center we have no limits on what we could present â  Rutter  told me. âThe problems I always describe is how to say no  when to say no  and how to not be really  truly overwhelmed by the extraordinary limitless richness of what happens here.â

Answer: Deborah Rutter


Question: Beyond their considerable personal skills as politicians and candidates , Cruz and Rubio have benefited from the anti-establishment revolution that has swept through the Republican Party . 
Republican presidential candidate , Sen. Ted Cruz , R-Texas , greets supporters during a caucus night rally , Monday , Feb. 1 , 2016 , in Des Moines , Iowa . 
Cruz sealed a victory in the Republican Iowa caucuses , winning on the strength of his relentless campaigning and support from his party &#39; s diehard conservatives . 
Republican presidential candidate , Sen. Ted Cruz , R-Texas , greets supporters during a caucus night rally , Monday , Feb. 1 , 2016 , in Des Moines , Iowa . 
Cruz sealed a victory in the Republican Iowa caucuses , winning on the strength of his relentless campaigning and support from his party 's diehard conservatives . 
If and when that happens , regardless of the political and ideological differences of their positions , they will be following in the footsteps of Ted Cruz . 
Ted Cruz has made Latino history . 
The irony of Cruz 's Latino milestone is , of course , that he does not think of himself as Latino . 
By coming in a close third , and by dint of being the last establishment friendly Republican standing , Senator Marco Rubio of Texas , has also placed himself in the position of being able to win primaries further down the line , and join Cruz as a Hispanic trailblazer . 
Unlike Cruz , Rubio does identify himself as Hispanic , and as a proud heir to the great American immigrant dream . 
Cruz , and Rubio too , have come further than any Latino politician has before them . 
Previous to Senator Cruz , the Hispanic politician who had gone the furthest in Iowa had been Bill Richardson , former Democratic Governor of New Mexico . 
The fact that Cruz , Hispanic trailblazer , is a Republican is yet another of the surprising aspects of the current electoral season .

Answer:
Ted Cruz
