Question: What is it that is dranken by people who are "In the Know?"

“Everybody in the know drinks halves,” said Leigh Linley, author of “Great Yorkshire Beer,” when I met him in the nearby city of Leeds the next day, referring to the half-pint serving glass, instead of the more traditional imperial pint. “With the amount of choice we have in Yorkshire, it is perfectly acceptable to drink halves and treat each night out as a giant beer festival.” Indeed, I’d heard for years about the pleasures of Yorkshire beer, starting with storied ale breweries like Samuel Smith’s, founded in 1758, and Timothy Taylor, founded a century later. In addition to traditional English ales, the county is also home to up-and-coming craft breweries that produce more modern styles, as well as some of Britain’s ’s most beloved pubs and bars. Armed with Mr. Linley’s book, I decided to take a six-day trip across much of West, South and North Yorkshire this spring, and soak up a sense of this northern English county and its renowned beer culture.

Question: At what rate did the economy expand in the April-to-June quarter?

That put the seasonally adjusted annual rate at an estimated $1.08 trillion, the highest level since May 2008. The report also revised the June increase in construction spending to 0.7 percent, from 0.1 percent previously. Groundbreakings for houses, apartment complexes and commercial centers have helped improve overall economic growth. The government said last week that the economy expanded at an annual rate of 3.7 percent in the April-to-June quarter, after edging up just 0.6 percent in the first quarter. “We expect housing activity will continue to strengthen, underpinning greater residential investment in the coming quarters,” said Gregory Daco, head of United States macroeconomics at the forecasting firm Oxford Economics. After the construction spending report, analysts at Barclays projected that the economy was on track to grow 2.6 percent in the third quarter and that the second-quarter growth rate would be revised up to 3.8 percent.

Question: What size did Volkswagen not sell in the US?

Beginning with the 2013 model year, cars like the Passat were equipped with a system that uses the chemical urea to neutralize nitrogen oxide emissions and is considered effective when properly configured. Those vehicles may be easier to repair. Volkswagen did not sell any engines smaller than 2 liters in the United States, though a small number of cars with 1.6-liter motors may have been imported from Mexico or other countries. Representatives of Volkswagen and its Audi division have been in talks with the Environmental Protection Agency about how to make cars in the United States compliant.

Question: Who is the file clerk that is now invisible?

Her decision to quit the tights-and-cape existence and take up a normal job naturally causes a fight for leadership among the remaining superheroes: El Fuego (Andrew Call), a short-order cook from Bay Ridge who now has the ability to shoot fire; Blue Nixie (Grace McLean), a former marine biologist from Brighton Beach, who can control the tides; Kid Comet (Gerard Canonico), a messenger from Dumbo transformed into the fastest man living (“I finish my commute just as I begin it,” he sings); Captain Clear, a file clerk who’s now completely invisible (we just hear his voice); and Avenging Angelo (Nick Cordero), an unemployed gamer from Bensonhurst whose rather modest (if hilarious) gift is being able to locate empty parking spots.

Question: How long was Michael D'Andrea head of the C.I.A.?

Perhaps no single C.I.A. officer has been more central to the effort than Michael D’Andrea, a gaunt, chain-smoking convert to Islam who was chief of operations during the birth of the agency’s detention and interrogation program and then, as head of the C.I.A. Counterterrorism Center, became an architect of the targeted killing program. Until last month, when Mr. D’Andrea was quietly shifted to another job, he presided over the growth of C.I.A. drone operations and hundreds of strikes in Pakistan and Yemen during nine years in the position.

Question: What professional organization is the team associated with?

PITTSBURGH —  Mike Sullivan’s voice is unmistakable. Loud. Authoritative. Animated. And, the Pittsburgh Penguins hope, an alarm clock. One of the N.H.L.’s marquee teams is in the midst of an identity crisis more than a third of the way into a season that it began with typically high expectations, which at the moment appear impossibly out of reach. The Penguins are not scoring. They occasionally are not defending and — perhaps most troubling — the magic they once summoned so easily seems to have disappeared.

Question: Is James a big supporter of Ohio State University or does he not care much about it?

James does know about a young Ohio team whose players stuck together through adversity and played with grit and guts. Not his Cavaliers, mind you, but the Ohio State Buckeyes. Between Monday’s practice and Tuesday’s game, James traveled to and from Texas in a private jet to attend the College Football Playoff championship game. “I’m a big supporter of the university,” James said. “What that school does for the state of Ohio you would only understand if you’re from the state of Ohio.” But you do not have to be from that state to understand that the Cavaliers, at least for the moment, are something of a mess.

Question: Who was sometimes imagined as Heidi's older cousin by Ms Moss?

In this way and in others, Ms. Moss is not so different from Heidi, who calls herself, “a highly informed spectator.” Or from Peggy, who Ms. Moss said that she sometimes imagined as Heidi’s older cousin. “I do think they would have liked each other for sure,” she said. Both triumph in their careers and struggle in their relationships. Scoop Rosenbaum, Heidi’s on-again, off-again boyfriend (played here by Jason Biggs), tells her, pompously and accurately, that she belongs to “a generation of disappointed women. Interesting, exemplary, even sexy, but basically unhappy.”

Question: How many people used the rubber band as an eraser when they were explicitly told it was a rubber band?

After spending the past four decades studying mindfulness without meditation, the Harvard psychologist Ellen Langer has identified plenty of other techniques for raising our conscious awareness of the present. For example, it turns out that you can become more mindful by thinking in conditionals instead of absolutes. In one experiment, when people made a mistake with a pencil, they had one of several different objects, like a rubber band, sitting on the table. When they were told, “This is a rubber band,” only 3 percent realized it could also be used as an eraser. When they had been told “This could be a rubber band,” 40 percent figured out that it could erase their mistake.

Question: Where did Torey Moore live?

(The Supreme Court just handed the Inclusive Communities Project an important victory in a lawsuit seeking to make more housing available. Landlords of properties built with low-income housing tax credits are required to accept vouchers. Inclusive Communities argues that Texas is allocating a disproportionate share of those credits to developers in minority neighborhoods. The Supreme Court ruling in June allows that lawsuit to move forward.) Four years ago, when Torey Moore first obtained one of the about 29,000 housing vouchers available to Dallas area residents, she stayed in the same South Dallas neighborhood. She had two young children, and she relied on her family to look after the children while she worked. Last year, however, she decided it was time to move. Her children were struggling at school, and when they were not at school, she worried about their safety.

Question: When were Alberto Burri's prescient paintings created?

Guggenheim Museum: ‘Alberto Burri: The Trauma of Painting’ (through Jan. 6) This Italian artist’s prescient paintings from the 1950s and early ‘60s — in patched, burned and otherwise abused burlap, plastic or wood — form a lavish, beautiful and admirable, if sometimes monotonous retrospective at the Guggenheim. Unfortunately, he may also inaugurate a bane of current art: the use of found materials so inherently affecting — burlap is one — that they require little of the artist. 1071 Fifth Avenue, at 89th Street, 212-423-3500, guggenheim.org. (Smith) Guggenheim Museum: ‘Photo-Poetics: An Anthology’ (through March 23) Formally complex and expressively reserved, even hermetic. the work by ten photographers in this stimulating show has roots in Conceptualism and takes language, history and speculative thinking as its raw materials. Photographs are structured with the equivalent of poetry’s metrical cadences and internal rhymes, and treated less as generators of translatable ideas than of suggestive metaphors. 1071 Fifth Avenue, at 89th Street, 212-423-3500, guggenheim.org. (Cotter) ★ Jewish Museum: ‘The Power of Pictures: Early Soviet Photography, Early Soviet Film’ (through Feb. 7) Revolutions sell utopias; that’s their job. Art, if it behaves itself and sticks to the right script, can be an important part of the promotional package. That’s the basic tale told by this exhibition of photographs and vintage films of the 1920s and ’30s, but with a question added: What happens to art when the script is drastically revised? Russia was an experiment in progress in the heady years following the 1917 revolution, and avant-garde art, free-spirited by definition, was officially embraced. When Joseph Stalin came to power art became government-dictated propaganda and its makers, often under threat, towed the line. Remarkably, the show presents a dozen films — some familiar, some not — full-length, on a rotating schedule of four a day, in a small viewing theater built into one of the Jewish Museum’s galleries. 1109 Fifth Avenue, at 92nd Street, 212-423-3200, thejewishmuseum.org. (Cotter) ★ Jewish Museum: ‘Unorthodox’ (through March 27) With about 200 putatively unorthodox works crowded into tightly walled-in spaces, this lively show has the feel of an Outsider Art fair — in a good way. The paintings, drawings, collages, assemblages, ceramics, weavings and videos are variously funny, funky, quirky, eccentric, idiosyncratic and visionary. Are they truly unorthodox by the standards of a contemporary art world wherein no one wants to be thought orthodox? No, but that’s O.K. It’s an entertaining and intermittently exhilarating exhibition nonetheless. 1109 Fifth Avenue, at 92nd Street, 212-423-3200, thejewishmuseum.org. (Johnson)

(Smith) Guggenheim Museum: ‘Photo-Poetics: An Anthology’ (through March 23) Formally complex and expressively reserved, even hermetic. the work by ten photographers in this stimulating show has roots in Conceptualism and takes language, history and speculative thinking as its raw materials. Photographs are structured with the equivalent of poetry’s metrical cadences and internal rhymes, and treated less as generators of translatable ideas than of suggestive metaphors. 1071 Fifth Avenue, at 89th Street, 212-423-3500, guggenheim.org. (Cotter) ★ Jewish Museum: ‘The Power of Pictures: Early Soviet Photography, Early Soviet Film’ (through Feb. 7) Revolutions sell utopias; that’s their job. Art, if it behaves itself and sticks to the right script, can be an important part of the promotional package. That’s the basic tale told by this exhibition of photographs and vintage films of the 1920s and ’30s, but with a question added: What happens to art when the script is drastically revised? Russia was an experiment in progress in the heady years following the 1917 revolution, and avant-garde art, free-spirited by definition, was officially embraced. When Joseph Stalin came to power art became government-dictated propaganda and its makers, often under threat, towed the line. Remarkably, the show presents a dozen films — some familiar, some not — full-length, on a rotating schedule of four a day, in a small viewing theater built into one of the Jewish Museum’s galleries. 1109 Fifth Avenue, at 92nd Street, 212-423-3200, thejewishmuseum.org. (Cotter) ★ Jewish Museum: ‘Unorthodox’ (through March 27) With about 200 putatively unorthodox works crowded into tightly walled-in spaces, this lively show has the feel of an Outsider Art fair — in a good way. The paintings, drawings, collages, assemblages, ceramics, weavings and videos are variously funny, funky, quirky, eccentric, idiosyncratic and visionary. Are they truly unorthodox by the standards of a contemporary art world wherein no one wants to be thought orthodox? No, but that’s O.K. It’s an entertaining and intermittently exhilarating exhibition nonetheless. 1109 Fifth Avenue, at 92nd Street, 212-423-3200, thejewishmuseum.org. (Johnson)


Question: How much do experts say camera change police for the better?

Dashboard cameras are far more prevalent — more so among state police and highway patrol forces than among local police forces — but experts say they know of no national tally of those, either. Yet despite the growing use of police video cameras, evidence is mixed about what effect they are having on police behavior. Experts say that cameras probably change for the better how the police and the public treat each other, but they do not know how much. And the fact that one viral video after another surfaces, showing officers treating civilians harshly, demonstrates the limits of that change.

Answer: they do not know how much

Question: What do some soldiers forget on their first day of excercise

In the first two weeks of training, the Americans found the Ukrainians’ soldierly skills lacking, and the group generally in need of instruction. “I came into it expecting them not to know much of the basics,” said Sgt. Michael Faranda, who is teaching maneuvers. He was correct. Things “every soldier should know,” he said, they did not. Some even forgot their helmets on the first day of exercises. Still, Sergeant Faranda said, the Ukrainians’ willingness to go into combat was all the more notable for their lack of preparation for it.

Question: Which actor plays the uptight guy in "Digging for Fire"?

To say that their marriage is in trouble would be an exaggeration, but there are tiny cracks in it through which trouble might enter. They spend most of the movie apart. Lee drops Jude off at his grandparents’ house so she can spend a night out with friends. Tim stays behind and involves himself in a bizarre project. He has unearthed a rusty gun and a possibly human bone from a patch of dirt on the far side of the swimming pool, and over the next 24 hours his curiosity blossoms into obsession. He becomes an amateur detective and forensic archaeologist, and also, without quite realizing it, a man digging himself ever deeper into an existential hole. But in the meantime, he has some fun. A few pals show up to drink beer, swim and wield shovels. One (Mike Birbiglia) is the uptight guy. Another (Sam Rockwell) is the party guy, who brings cocaine, unattached women and an even wilder buddy (Mr. Messina).

Question: What percent of Americans with children under 6 have working parents?

So where do we go from here? Slaughter focuses on high-quality child care, and that’s a great place to start. For 60 percent of American households with children age 6 and under, every adult in the household is working. Meanwhile, experts tell us that most child care is mediocre to poor, including care by relatives — who are often too busy trying to get work done themselves. Blair faults Slaughter for “woolliness” about solutions and an avoidance of the “political system.” And indeed, today’s Congress is a huge part of the stall. But we can’t be vague about the political challenge. Perhaps surprisingly, the parts of the country that most desperately need great child care are the red states. The Republican states are poorer and have a higher rate of single motherhood and divorce, so mothers face more need to work, often in low-end jobs that don’t allow payment for quality care. The need is there. And so is some surprising support. Endorsing the Strong Start for America’s Children Act is an organization called Fight Crime: Invest in Kids, a national bipartisan nonprofit made up of nearly 5,000 police chiefs, sheriffs, prosecutors and others who see investment in child care as crime prevention.

Question: when did Mr. Menendez last run?

Judge Walls rejected each of those arguments. He said there was no indication that the grand jury had been handled improperly, and concluded that political contributions can be considered “things of value to influence official acts.” “The Constitution does not protect an attempt to influence a public official’s acts through improper means, such as the bribery scheme that has been alleged in this case,” he wrote in his decision. Mr. Menendez, a Democrat, was indicted in April on charges that he accepted personal gifts, including private plane trips and luxury accommodations in the Dominican Republic, from Dr. Melgen, and lobbied in return for Dr. Melgen’s interests in Washington. A wealthy Florida eye surgeon, Dr. Melgen was a major contributor to Mr. Menendez’s political campaigns, and to a “super PAC” supporting his last re-election bid in 2012.

Question: How much has law school enrollment dropped off in the past four years?

During the recession, the legal sector — which is not confined to lawyers — shed about 60,000 jobs, and only about 20,000 have been added back, said James G. Leipold, executive director of the National Association for Law Placement, citing data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Among the lawyers affected by the cuts, those with two to three years of experience were hit particularly hard, said David P. Miranda, president of the New York State Bar Association. As a result, he said, recent law school graduates have found themselves competing for work not only with classmates, but also with seasoned lawyers. The difficulty in finding jobs appears to have discouraged some people from pursuing legal careers, he added. Indeed, law school enrollment across the country dropped 30 percent over the past four years, Mr. Leipold said.

Question: Who is widely suspected to seek the post as Boehner's replacement as speaker?

WASHINGTON —  When John A. Boehner announced his retirement on Friday, speculation about who would succeed him as speaker immediately centered on the No. 2 House Republican: Kevin McCarthy, a 50-year-old Californian who has had a rapid rise through the party ranks. Mr. McCarthy declined to discuss his plans on Friday, at one point telling reporters, “I’ll make an announcement, when there’s an announcement.” But he is widely expected to seek the post as Republicans prepare for what are likely to be hotly contested battles for other leadership positions.

Question: When has Woods started to fail?

After his 27th hole, Woods was 19 strokes off the leader’s pace. Talk about disheartening. Asked what he had been thinking when he made the turn in 44, tying his worst nine-hole score as a pro, Woods said: “Just keep fighting. Just keep grinding each and every shot. That’s all I can do. It was not a very good day from the very start until the end, but I fought all day.” In official tour events, Woods has not bettered par in his last six competitive rounds, dating to August. He missed nearly six months to recover from back surgery and in recent weeks was slowed by influenza. Golfers are like stage actors. They cannot be sure how well they will deliver their lines until the curtain comes up and they are performing in front of an audience. “Hitting golf balls is one thing, and playing golf at home is another,” Woods said. “Playing tournament golf is entirely another. I have to continue with the process.”

Question: What race does the jail mostly house?

Tuesday’s move is the latest in a long push by the A.C.L.U. to force changes at the jail. The group filed its first class action on behalf of inmates in 1993, saying the poor conditions constituted cruel and unusual punishment. In the years since, the jail has staved off court orders by agreeing to improve conditions. The most recent settlement was in 2009. But the A.C.L.U. said the state had failed to make meaningful improvements at the jail, which overwhelmingly houses poor, black residents caught up in drug-related crimes.

Question: what does the Deste Prize recognize?

In a separate attraction, NEON is partnering with London’s Whitechapel Gallery to bring together 25 Greek and foreign artists to explore myth, drama, metamorphoses and bioethics through outdoor art projects at the École Française d’Athènes until July 26.

Many of these attractions will fill a vacuum left by the absence of the National Museum of Contemporary Art, which has spent more than a decade in a period of restoration and flux but is not scheduled to reopen until the end of the year.

Question: Which became the biography of cantor ?

Was Freud entirely wrong then about slips and mishearings? Of course not. He advanced fundamental considerations about wishes, fears, motives and conflicts not present in consciousness, or thrust out of consciousness, which could color slips of the tongue, mishearings or misreadings. But he was, perhaps, too insistent that misperceptions are wholly a result of unconscious motivation. Collecting mishearings over the past few years without any explicit selection or bias, I am forced to think that Freud underestimated the power of neural mechanisms, combined with the open and unpredictable nature of language, to sabotage meaning, to generate mishearings that are irrelevant both in terms of context and of subconscious motivation. And yet there is often a sort of style or wit — a “dash ”— in these instantaneous inventions; they reflect, to some extent, one’s own interests and experiences, and I rather enjoy them. Only in the realm of mishearing — at least, my mishearings — can a biography of cancer become a biography of Cantor (one of my favorite mathematicians), tarot cards turn into pteropods, a grocery bag into a poetry bag, all-or-noneness into oral numbness, a porch into a Porsche, and a mere mention of Christmas Eve a command to “Kiss my feet!”

And yet there is often a sort of style or wit — a “dash ”— in these instantaneous inventions; they reflect, to some extent, one’s own interests and experiences, and I rather enjoy them. <hl> Only in the realm of mishearing — at least, my mishearings — can a biography of cancer become a biography of Cantor (one of my favorite mathematicians), tarot cards turn into pteropods, a grocery bag into a poetry bag, all-or-noneness into oral numbness, a porch into a Porsche, and a mere mention of Christmas Eve a command to “Kiss my feet!” <hl>

Was Freud entirely wrong then about slips and mishearings? Of course not. He advanced fundamental considerations about wishes, fears, motives and conflicts not present in consciousness, or thrust out of consciousness, which could color slips of the tongue, mishearings or misreadings.

Question: What complication in babies can be caused by herpes?

Rabbi David Niederman, an influential Orthodox leader in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, sat outside a meeting of the New York City Board of Health on Wednesday, staring at a brochure and frowning. The pamphlet, created by the de Blasio administration, is a glossy but blunt warning about the dangers of metzitzah b’peh, an Orthodox circumcision ritual linked to herpes infections in infants. “Some babies can get sick with herpes, which can lead to death,” the form reads in bold type. “There is no way to avoid the risk.” “Serious misstatements,” Rabbi Niederman said, looking pained, as he read the brochure for the first time. But the rabbi declined to elaborate, telling a reporter that, for now, he wanted only to praise the city for trying to work with Orthodox leaders on the matter.

Question: France had a large number of migrants belonging to which religion come into the country?

“The left is, then, the last rampart of Republican France against the xenophobic extreme right,” he said, calling on all the left-leaning parties to join together to defeat the National Front. Ms. Le Pen and her party have thrived on an anti-immigration message that has verged on anti-Muslim, as well as a call for re-establishing European borders. These notions had already found traction as France faced an influx of Muslim immigrants from war-afflicted areas of the world. But she gained even more momentum after the attacks in Paris on Nov. 13, in which 130 people were killed. However, several analysts said it was important not to overplay the recent attacks in explaining her success. Rather, they see a long-term trend in which the National Front has gained ground in election after election. It has done so even more rapidly since Ms. Le Pen took leadership of the party from her father, Jean-Marie Le Pen, in 2011.

Question: How did the school board increase public spending on private schools?

While slashing resources in its public schools, the school board vastly increased public spending on private schools. The cost of transporting children, including gender-segregated busing, rose to $27.3 million in 2013-14 from $22 million in 2009-10, a 24 percent increase. Public spending on private school placement for special education students grew by 33 percent between 2010-11 and 2013-14, and the district placed students in private schools when appropriate spaces were available in public ones.

Question: When was the Symphony No. 10 conducted?

I could devote a whole report to the wrenching, blazing and vehement account of Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 10 in E minor that Mr. Gilbert conducted after intermission. The composer completed this hourlong symphony months after the death of Stalin. How explicitly it was intended as bitter commentary on Stalinist repression is a topic of debate. Whatever one’s take, Mr. Gilbert led a commanding performance, especially the spacious gravity he summoned during the expansive opening movement and the intensity bordering on sheer terror of the short Allegro.

Question: Whose legs does "Flour Paste" make Jessie's look like?

In her pictures of her own family — like “Damaged Child,” with its implication of battering, and “Flour Paste,” in which Jessie’s legs resemble a burn victim’s — Mann punches the buttons of her viewers. Upon discovering that she has stage-managed a scene, some people feel cheated, as if their emotions have been trifled with. “I hope you can get past that,” she argues. “You learn something about yourself and your own fears. Everyone surely has all those fears that I have for my children.” Mann has been criticized for treating violence with an esthete’s dispassion, for bringing out the subtle texture of blood and bruises without offering a clear political statement along the way. The imagery of death fascinates her. A picture of Virginia with a black eye moved her for a long time because “you couldn’t tell if she was living or dead. It looked like one of those Victorian post-mortem photographs.” In 1987, Emmett was struck by a car and thrown 50 feet. Though he escaped critical injury, Mann saw the real thing as a warning not to pretend again. Still, “Immediate Family” includes a picture from 1989 that may be the most gruesome so far: a nude Virginia seeming to have hanged herself by a rope from a tree.

Question: Who is the candidate running for office?

“To take in foreigners — it just isn’t possible,” said Jacky Roussell, a retired worker at the closed Goodyear tire factory, wearing a two-day stubble. “We’re already living in poverty here. There are French people living in the street. Besides, you don’t even know if there are jihadists among them,” Mr. Roussell said. “We can’t take in everyone, can we?” Ms. Le Pen, after a month of inflammatory words on migrants in media appearances and speeches to supporters, only alluded to the issue as she launched her regional elections campaign, aboard a boat here in front of a gaggle of French journalists.

Question: With what is the food system deeply interconnected with?

Indeed food waste is a major environmental issue. Its implications are broad and complex, as our food system is deeply interconnected with our water and energy systems. When we throw out uneaten food, we throw out the resources that went into it, including water and energy. Crunch the numbers, and about 25 percent of all freshwater consumed every year in the United States is associated with discarded food. And about 2 percent of the American energy budget is thrown away every year as food waste, equivalent to the energy contained in 360 million barrels of oil. Tackling the food waste dilemma requires an all-hands-on-deck approach. The problem must be addressed at many points in the food chain, from farms to retailers, restaurants to municipalities, as well as at home. Local, state and federal governments can and should play an important role in reducing food waste.

Question: Which car company was involved with the scandal?

Of the proposed regulation, he said, “I see it as nearly impossible for us.” In September of this year, Volkswagen, then the world’s largest automaker, admitted to installing software designed to cheat on emissions tests, setting off one of the largest corporate scandals in the industry’s history. The role of Mr. Hatz, one of the first employees suspended by the company when the crisis broke, is considered a pivotal one in myriad investigations into Volkswagen’s decision-making by prosecutors in the United States, Germany and elsewhere. Mr. Hatz, 56, was one of a coterie of executives from VW’s Audi brand brought over to run the parent company in 2007 by Martin Winterkorn, who was Audi’s chief until he took over as VW’s chief executive that year. One of Mr. Winterkorn’s first moves was to name Mr. Hatz, the head of engines and transmission development at Audi, to do the same job for the entire company. Mr. Hatz’s elevation came during a bitter internal clash about what kind of emissions technology Volkswagen should use to ensure that the company’s diesels would comply with tougher American emissions standards — a clash that ultimately led the company to cheat on emissions tests. While Mr. Hatz was an advocate for diesels, he has also spoken out in the past about the struggle to meet regulations in the American market, according to a review of his statements and public records. Mr. Hatz declined to comment through a spokesman at Porsche, where he has served on the management board as chief of research and development.
