Question: What two sites are generally considered addicting?

“I really loved the idea of a healthy weekend: high-end, but low-fat cuisine, fitness classes, treatments,” Ms. Kushner said. The event coordinator planned nostalgic playground games (ring toss, jumping rope) in a lighthearted but competitive style. “My friends were so surprised by how much fun they had,” she said. The notion that Big Brother is watching from the web, along with the eyes of corporate America, is a reality that is also bearing down on millennials and others who are holding down jobs and are expected to perform in them. As enticing and addictive as Facebook and Instagram have become, there’s also a pushback from those wanting to remain faceless and nameless. For these folks, being caught in compromising photographs in a posting on someone’s page that they didn’t O.K. is no longer acceptable.

Question: What disease did Natalie have?

After three days in the hospital, Natalie got better. A new chest X-ray showed that there was much less fluid in her chest. Her fever resolved. They changed one of the antibiotics and the nausea she had had all but disappeared. They told her she could go home. They prescribed antibiotics for her to take at home, and removed her IV catheter. Natalie went back to school, and the next day was interviewed by a TV reporter because she was one of the few who survived her kind of pneumonia in Nebraska. She talked about her disappointment over missing swim meets.

Question: How much in virtual currency, Bitcoin, was collected over a month?

One set of attackers, believed to be based in Russia and Ukraine, collected about $16.5 million in Bitcoins in a little over a month, primarily from victims in the United States, according to the security firm Sophos. Criminals like the virtual currency because it can be held in a digital wallet that does not have to be registered with any government or financial authority — and because it can be easily exchanged for real money. At the moment, a single Bitcoin can be sold online or on the street for around $290. “The criminal underground very much likes Bitcoin,” said Curt Wilson, a senior threat intelligence analyst at Arbor Networks. “It’s enabled a greater sense of obfuscation.”

Question: Who is urging law firms to be more open about reporting incidents?

In the last several months, Mandiant, the security firm that is a division of the security consultant FireEye, has been advising a half-dozen unidentified law firms that were victims of a breach or other attack, said a person briefed on the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity. Federal law enforcement authorities are urging law firms to be more open about reporting incidents. Agents with the Federal Bureau of Investigation have met with law firm leaders in the last few years to discuss online security. Top federal prosecutors at the Justice Department have begun to do the same.

Question: What is the moral of the Shanleys story?

Having gotten to know these people and watched their undoing as if it were a slow-motion car accident, we long for a happy ending. There can be second acts in seemingly broken marriages. (Read Jenny Offill’s “Dept. of Speculation” for a recent literary example.) But in a daring interim chapter called “That Year and Those That Followed,” Ms. Pierpont widens her lens, temporarily abandoning her pointillistic moment-by-moment descriptions for a panoramic shot that sweeps years into paragraphs, projecting far out into the Shanleys’ future. It has the leaden sting of inevitability and cannot help dampening what is still to come. The die is cast, she seems to be saying. There is no going back.

Question: How much did Eaton Vance's shares rise in a day?

To Mr. Faust’s point, after the fund’s approval was disclosed, shares of Eaton Vance soared 20 percent in a day as investors bet that the innovation would transform the company. Still, the asset-management industry can be slow to change, and there is no guarantee that it will rush to adopt an untried model being trumpeted by a competitor. Moreover, analysts say, exchanges like Nasdaq as well as broker dealers will have to make significant investments to accommodate the new funds. “There are a lot of operational hurdles for them to clear,” said Dave Nadig, a specialist at ETF.com, an industry research firm based in San Francisco. “That is a lot of work to do for just one product from one company.” True enough, Mr. Faust concedes.

Question: What was the purpose of these reforms?

In the wake of Thursday’s attack, Mrs. Clinton made sure to acknowledge that “gun ownership is part of the fabric of many American communities,” before urging broad policies to address gun violence. “We must come together for common sense gun violence prevention reforms that keep weapons out of the hands of criminals and the violently unstable, while respecting responsible gun owners,” she said in a statement that was unlikely to offer encouragement to proponents of stricter gun laws.

Question: What state does Bernie Sanders hail from?

Ashlyn Knaur of Huntsville, Ala., recently unfollowed some friends after Mrs. Clinton’s announcement. She also removed the actress Anne Hathaway from her Instagram feed after Ms. Hathaway shared a posting supportive of Mrs. Clinton. Julie Ruby of Normal, Ill., is on the brink of unfollowing her daughter’s mother-in-law for negative comments regarding Mrs. Clinton. And John Thrasher of Cumberland, Md., lost touch with his father over his politics postings on Facebook. “The regular contact between us has been cut because of politics and social media,” Mr. Thrasher said. Mike Massaroli, from Staten Island, says that his postings are often ignored and that he is occasionally unfollowed even by his fraternity brothers, who playfully cast him off as “the dude who is voting for Bernie Sanders” for his frequent praise of the Vermont senator. In theory, Facebook’s algorithm provides for an overall better experience on the site, ranking the number of posts likely to be ignored by the user lower in the news feed. But in the realm of politics, that sometimes has the unintended consequence of engineering the political discourse on Facebook toward the user’s political leanings. “The fundamental principle underpinning news feed is the more you interact with specific types of content and content from specific places, the more likely you are to continue to see” that kind of content, said Andy Stone, a spokesman for Facebook.

Question: Who was the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security?

For years, the N.F.L. played cat and mouse with the city of Los Angeles. Every so often a team in, say, Minnesota, would threaten to move to L.A. in an effort to crowbar concessions out of its government leaders back home. Once the team got public financing, it stayed put. To move the ball, AEG, the sports and entertainment group, and Majestic Realty Group, a big real estate developer, promised to build stadiums in Los Angeles County if a team would commit to moving. For years, none did. But the roulette wheel has spun a lot faster this year. In January, the owner of the St. Louis Rams, Stan Kroenke, said he planned to build an 80,000-seat stadium in Inglewood, 10 miles south of downtown Los Angeles. Last week, the Inglewood City Council voted unanimously to give the project the green light. The Rams switched to a year-to-year lease at the Edward Jones Dome in St. Louis, giving them the flexibility to move. Alarmed by the possibility that the Rams could move back to Los Angeles, the San Diego Chargers and the Oakland Raiders last month said they would build their own stadium in Carson, about 15 miles farther south. The move was viewed as a way for the teams to maintain leverage in stadium negotiations with their home cities and potentially forestall the Rams. In the blink of an eye, the N.F.L. went from shadow boxing to boxing in Los Angeles. Faced with the possibility of three teams rushing to the city at once, the N.F.L. established an owners committee to oversee the process. But the process appears to be a work in a progress. AEG, which secured environmental approvals and sold naming rights for its proposed stadium next to Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, and which perhaps fears being shut out of the N.F.L. stadium sweepstakes, re-entered the fray. The company commissioned a report by Tom Ridge, a former secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, who outlined several safety and operational risks of locating a stadium in Inglewood just a few miles from the runways at Los Angeles International Airport.

The move was viewed as a way for the teams to maintain leverage in stadium negotiations with their home cities and potentially forestall the Rams. In the blink of an eye, the N.F.L. went from shadow boxing to boxing in Los Angeles. Faced with the possibility of three teams rushing to the city at once, the N.F.L. established an owners committee to oversee the process. But the process appears to be a work in a progress. AEG, which secured environmental approvals and sold naming rights for its proposed stadium next to Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, and which perhaps fears being shut out of the N.F.L. stadium sweepstakes, re-entered the fray. The company commissioned a report by <hl> Tom Ridge <hl>, a former secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, who outlined several safety and operational risks of locating a stadium in Inglewood just a few miles from the runways at Los Angeles International Airport.

Question: What american comedian actor do they like?

I’m realizing that people have their time and they have their guy. In the same way that you have a band: People just love U2, and they go, “This is my band, and they understand me and they get me. And I don’t like Charli XCX.” It is such an intimate and personal connection that you’re making. But at some point, we’ll be sitting somewhere, sharing a drink, going, “Ugh, when Fallon used to come out, he wouldn’t do any of this! He wouldn’t do any of this 3-D virtual camera stuff. He’d just come out and do lip-sync battles, and they were the great days.”

Question: What race track was considered to be in a park?

Q. What other differences do you see between then and now in Formula One? A. Before, I loved it that it happened on public roads. In Belgium, after the race, after the deaths, we drove around and to look for where it had happened, driving down to Malmedy and thinking about the war. I don’t know how you can make people understand the difference between a public road and a manufactured piste, manufactured corners, and escape roads in every direction and nothing to hit. Q. But Monza was always a track in a park. That hasn’t changed much. A. Yes, that never impressed me, I never liked it. I loved Belgium, I loved Germany, the setting, the fact that they were public roads. Reims was a road race, and you could imagine the Germans coming over in tanks but it was race cars going in the other direction. It wasn’t much of a circuit, it was only a triangle, very, very fast and there was a wrinkle here and there. It was part of the Champagne country and they gave Champagne for the fastest lap and things like that. It really was a French Grand Prix as opposed to another Grand Prix. Today nothing changes except the crowd.

Answer: Monza

But Monza was always a track in a park.

Question: How long was training for the Ukrainian soldiers?

Capt. Andrii Syurkalo, a Ukrainian officer, said it was commendable that the trainers were willing to use the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal as an element in a class on the Geneva Conventions. American officers described the course work as equivalent to the latter months of basic training in the United States. The courses will train 705 Ukrainian soldiers at a cost of $19 million over six months. The Ukrainian National Guard is rotating from the front what units it can spare for the training. American instructors intend to recommend top performers to serve as trainers within other Ukrainian units, and in this way spread the instruction more broadly.

Question: Where did the meeting take place?

Secretary of State John Kerry met with European ministers over the weekend to discuss harsher economic sanctions against Russia because of the conflict in Ukraine. While that meeting took place in London, Vitaly Mutko, Russia’s minister of sports, tourism and youth, gave one of his periodic reassurances that everything is on target for 2018. It is closer than we may think. “The eyes of the footballing world will be on St. Petersburg on Saturday 25 July,” read a FIFA reminder last week that the World Cup preliminary draw is just months away.

Question: Why wouldn't you delete them?

If you want to sling between computers files that you did not purchase in iTunes — like audio tracks ripped from your own CDs — using your Dropbox folder as a transfer station can work. However, to avoid seeing exclamation marks or other errors because of original files gone missing from the first iTunes library, drag copies of the tracks out of the iTunes window to the desktop Dropbox folder, or copy over duplicates from your iTunes Media folder to Dropbox. Once you get to your second computer and open your synced Dropbox folder there, import the tracks into that system’s iTunes’s library. You can delete them out of your Dropbox folder at that point, but if you leave them there, you can play and view many types of unrestricted files on a smartphone or tablet by opening and streaming them through the Dropbox mobile app.

Question: Why do we need to undertake a giant replumbing project across the West?

For most of the 1900s, the bureau’s system — which grew into the largest wholesale water utility in the country — worked. But the West of the 21st century is not the West of Roosevelt. There are now millions more people who want water, but there is far less of it. The science of climate change shows that in the future, there will be less still. “We have to think differently,” said Michael Connor, the deputy secretary of the Interior Department, which includes the Bureau of Reclamation. “It’s not enough just to conserve water. We need to rethink these projects. We have a lot of infrastructure, but a lot of it doesn’t work very well anymore. We need to undertake what amounts to a giant replumbing project across the West.” Mr. Connor said that in the future, the nation’s water agency would have to put climate change at the center of its mission.

Question: Who is Donatella Versace?

“We think we are all eternal,” she added sadly. “When I heard that he passed away, I really regret that I lost contact with him, not going to New York frequently. I have a very, very good memory of him.” Those who had encountered him more recently found him unchanged. “About two years ago, I saw him at the Ritz,” Donatella Versace, Mr. Versace’s younger sister and since his death the steward of his label, said in a note. “He waved at me and invited me to join him for tea. It was like time had not gone by for him, still the same bright, fun vibrant John Fairchild I always knew. I am so glad I had this moment with him, and now I will treasure it forever.”

Question: What was Sheldon Drobny helping Mr. Rodman with?

Even more important, according to Mr. Rodham, was what he said was going to be Mr. Clinton’s help on his Haiti rebuilding project. That project came about when Sheldon Drobny, an old friend, contacted Mr. Rodham about making a connection for a Chicago-area contractor, who wanted to become involved in building houses in Haiti. “We were trying to help. Period,” Mr. Drobny, a co-founder of Air America Radio, the former liberal talk network, said in a phone interview. He called the effort “humanitarian.”

Question: What were worker and environmental protections in NAFTA replaced with?

One mistake the Nafta negotiators made more than two decades ago was taking worker rights and environmental protections out of the agreement itself and putting them into a side letter. They were never effectively enforced. Those negotiating the Trans-Pacific Partnership expect to rectify that error this go-round. They are also aiming to pry open the Japanese auto and agricultural markets to American producers, and include protections for a free and open Internet. It has, in other words, a lot more potential to do good than harm.

Question: What did he write in the Foreign Policy magazine?

“The Russians have fought what is largely a proxy war in eastern Ukraine — and on the cheap, too,” Mark Galeotti, a military analyst, wrote in Foreign Policy magazine. “Even the government in Kiev, which is prone to alarmism, estimates that Russia has deployed, at most, some 9,000 troops.” But the conflict has also reached a point where Russia would have to commit significant new resources for any further advance, which helped clear the way for a settlement to consolidate its gains, Mr. Lukyanov said. The separatists “cannot advance very much without direct Russian involvement, and Russia does not want to get directly involved,” he said.

Question: When did the Corinthian Colleges collapse?

Question: During what decade did the Russian debacle in Afghanistan take place?

If the Islamic State seemed a distant threat at one point, the Kremlin now appears genuinely concerned about repercussions. About 2,400 Russians have joined the extremist movement, a senior security official announced recently, and an additional 3,000 men from Central Asian states are believed to be fighting in Syria. It is considered unlikely that Mr. Putin will propose sending Russian troops to join the fighting. The memories of the Russian debacle in Afghanistan in the 1980s remain too fresh. Even Russian casualties fighting next door in Ukraine — a war the public accepted as necessary for its own protection — were hidden by the state.

Question: In addition to Mr. Smisek, how many other United executives resigned last month?

The United investigation grew out of the federal inquiry into the 2013 closing of lanes at the George Washington Bridge, and Mr. Fox is the latest high-ranking figure to leave his post amid those investigations. Last month, the chief executive of United, Jeff Smisek, resigned, as did two other top United executives who also attended the September 2011 dinner. People close to the investigation, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because it is continuing, told The New York Times that prosecutors had been asking witnesses before a grand jury questions about Mr. Fox.

Question: At what age did Louise die?

The sculptor Louise Nevelson took up a fair amount of space in New York in the 1960s and early ’70s. She was one of the most prominent artists of her generation, known for her imperious personality and a penchant for false eyelashes, heavy jewelry and chinchilla capes. More important were her forward-looking wood reliefs, painted entirely black or white, which linked the found-object aesthetic of assemblage to the clean lines and orderly sequences of Minimalism (and also presaged the all-black assemblage sculptures of Rashid Johnson). But by the time she died at age 88 in 1988, the art world had moved on.

Question: Who is Ms. Schoenhals thinking about acting on Cosmo Sex Tip?

Next Thing Ms. Schoenhals is plotting to wave her viral wand on bigger screens. A film adaptation of “White Girl Problems” is in the pipeline from Lionsgate. She would like to turn Cosmo Sex Tips into a half-hour TV show in which “various comedians and actors act out the sexy tips,” she said. And she is also writing a TV pilot centered on a young woman in Los Angeles who works at a vintage store that doubles as a drug front. “What could be funnier than a bunch of white girls juggling selling drugs and vintage clothing?” she said.

Question: Who is Wood's caddie?

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — Watching Tiger Woods launch wildly errant drives was hard. Watching his ground-ball chip shots was harder. But the hardest part of watching Woods’s career-worst round Friday at the Phoenix Open was seeing the greatest golfer of his generation turn into the lovable last-place straggler. Fans at T.P.C. Scottsdale, renowned for their crassness, were overcome with compassion as Woods, who was No. 1 in the world at this time last year, struggled to an 11-over-par 82 and a 36-hole total of 13-over 155. It was only the second time in 303 PGA Tour starts as a professional that Woods had failed to break 80 (the other time was in the third round of the 2002 British Open, played in hellacious conditions). For Woods, who has been breaking 80 since age 8, the score was full of foreboding. He might as well have had the Grim Reaper on his bag instead of his trusty caddie, Joe LaCava.

Question: How does the writer feel about the price of tickets currently?

I love the calm snarkiness of this essay, and it went right over the heads of some making comments here. If there is ever a moment where I am made to feel like a consumer, it is when I have already bought a ticket and am waiting to board. Everyone has been assigned literally several different levels of gold and silver status. It is hilarious and sad. I don’t take it seriously since the costs of tickets is absurd anyway. Roger of Queens: As an infrequent flier with a status somewhere between lead and copper, I am quite pleased with the fact that there are people willing to pay $1,000 for a round trip from N.Y.C. to San Diego, in return for an extra few inches of legroom and a free cocktail. Thanks to their subsidy, I can make the same trip in the back of the plane for $400, which barely even covers my share of the fuel cost.

Question: Who is the director of Salon 94?

The perception that video or sound art is difficult to grasp is something that Mr. Gryn hopes will change with Daata. “We are not a gallery — we are not art advisers,” he said. “What we are is a commissioning platform that works with artists who work in those mediums and who promote their art form and nurture awareness. My idea is that you make a self-sustaining business that commissions the next round of artists’ works.” By the beginning of September, all the inaugural artists had sold several editions of their works, and there were over 500 downloads of a free Jon Rafman video. By Mr. Gryn’s standards, “that is fantastic,” he wrote in an email, because it means the work is being seen and bought. Jessica Witkin, the director of the New York gallery Salon 94, which specializes in new media, drew a parallel with how collectors eventually warmed to photographic art, accepting the idea that more than one edition could be available.

Question: What are the costumes a nod to?

The contemporary relevance of “Poliuto” is potentially strong, whether to the centenary of the Armenian genocide or to events in the Middle East. Ms. Clément updates the action, mostly to the interwar period. The costumes nod to dictatorships, maybe Nazi or Italian, less likely the Communism of Armenia. Muddled projections by the videographers fettFilm point obliquely and fleetingly to the 1990s siege of Sarajevo, and to an international criminal court. Towering stone pillars change position in Julia Hansen’s sets, suggesting the protean power of tyranny and the danger of lives lived in the shadows, but they transform awkwardly.

Question: Who did Matt Harvey strike out three times?

WASHINGTON — Three months ago, Matt Harvey strutted around the Nationals’ mound here during one of the most important starts of his young career, his first since having Tommy John surgery. He fired fastballs at will, snapped his slider like a whip, struck out Bryce Harper three times and announced to the baseball world that he was back. During his start here Monday, the lasting image of Harvey was him turning, his hands out, watching as a Clint Robinson double ricocheted high off the center-field wall in the third inning. Harvey’s command looked off, and this time the Nationals did not look intimidated. Harvey often walked off the mound in conversation with catcher Anthony Recker, searching for answers. The Mets had aligned their starters after the All-Star break with this series in mind. They wanted to line up Harvey, Jacob deGrom and Noah Syndergaard, their three best starters, to make a run at the Nationals, the National League East leaders. Harvey lost the first game, 7-2, in humbling and conflicting fashion. He allowed five early runs and issued four walks, yet he lasted seven innings and even drove in two runs. Harvey was not at his best, but his offense and his defense repeatedly failed him.

Question: What did Sandy order from Mexico?

In October, Sandy wrote to an address in Mexico listed on the website of “The Peaceful Pill Handbook.” Weeks passed, and she fretted that her order had been confiscated at the border. But at last it arrived: a cardboard box, no bigger than a softball, wrapped in brown paper. Sandy eagerly took scissors to the packaging and retrieved two 100-milliliter bottles of pentobarbital — she had bought an extra one just in case, even though she believed that one bottle would be enough for a person her size. The drug needed to be kept in a cool place, so she took the bottles down to the basement. For the time being, she could leave the pentobarbital on a shelf, comforted by the knowledge that it was there. Now that the matter of “How?” was taken care of, the Bems turned back to the elusive question of “When?” They still generally agreed that Sandy would probably be alive until the end of 2014. But even with the treatments in Manhattan, her cognitive deficits were becoming more pronounced. When Bev came from Oregon to visit, Sandy couldn’t understand how Bev and she could possibly have had the same parents. She didn’t recognize Robyn’s name in conversation, and when Emily tried to explain that Robyn was “Dad’s sister,” Sandy asked who, exactly, was Dad?
