Question: In what year was Mr. Harrell first incarcerated?

Mr. Harrell had served several stints in prison for drug crimes starting in 2002. He had five disciplinary infractions while incarcerated, including one days before his death for possessing contraband, according to prison records. None involved violence. Inmates and family members say that any erratic behavior more likely stemmed from his mental illness. In the weeks before his death, they said, he had been depressed. In 2010 he learned he had bipolar disorder and was hospitalized, according to medical records. His wife, Diane Harrell, said that when he was not taking his medication, he would go through the house turning over family photographs for fear they were staring at him. He also believed the television was talking to him, she said.

Question: Did Kyle Davis score for Dayton?

It was an ugly game — the teams combined for three baskets in the first 11 minutes of play — that eventually gave way to something of an encore for the Dayton fans who had watched their team rally to beat the Broncos on Wednesday. As time ticked off the clock, their cheers boomed off the rafters of the arena. At the beginning of the second half, when the game was tightly contested, the sophomore guard Kyle Davis picked off an inbounds pass, raced downcourt and laid the ball in the basket. The play fueled a rally that gave Dayton its second win in three days. The Flyers will play third-seeded Oklahoma on Sunday evening in the round of 32.

Question: Who is Facebook's founder?

Mr. Thrasher, who had the Facebook falling out with his father, created a separate list of conservative friends from his hometown to keep tabs on what “Republican friends were saying about the latest craze.” And Facebook counts its vast user base as evidence that it is much more than a political echo chamber. “Even if the majority of people that you’re friends with have opinions that are similar to you,” Facebook’s founder, Mark Zuckerberg, said last year, “your network of friends and friends of friends who you’ll hear from in your news feed is going to bring you more diverse opinions than you would have from any other type of media that you would have consumed.” But as the passions about the presidential race ratchet up and more people click the “unfollow” button, the discussion on the site tends to mimic the chatter of often-derided partisan news organizations on television, where like-minded audiences follow like-minded viewpoints.

Question: What is the name of the Phoenix Suns' arena?

Of course, in his first game back since a strained left knee and a sore lower back sidelined him for two weeks, James did do a decent impersonation of his kingly self. He played 37 minutes and finished with 33 points on 11 for 18 shooting while collecting seven rebounds and five assists. James’s first points at US Airways Center even came on a reverse dunk. That was heartening news because before he was sidelined, he seemed to have lost a step and, with it, a gear of aggression. In all, James, who was averaging less than a dunk a game before his injuries, had three against the Suns, a formidable team with a 23-18 record. Afterward, David Blatt, the embattled Cavaliers coach, described James’s performance as “terrific” and added, “I just thought he laid it out there.”

Question: Players will sit, regardless of what, if they aren't team players?

“We never know what a coaching change is going to do,” Rutherford said. Sullivan hit all the right notes during his first couple of days on the job. “We create an environment here that we inspire people to play,” he said.And if they don’t, Sullivan insists they will sit regardless of pedigree. “Those that play well will be rewarded with more play,” Sullivan said.

Question: What was Wilkins first to ever design and install at the resort?

During the post-World War II marriage boom, when gas shortages persuaded honeymooners from New York and Philadelphia to stay closer to home, hoteliers began luring newlyweds to the Poconos instead of to Niagara Falls. But it wasn’t until 1968 that those northeastern Pennsylvania mountains would be unblushingly branded the libidinous Land of Love. That was when Morris Wilkins, a former electrician and submariner, in the unlikely guise of Cupid, sparked a romantic reformation in his own Poconos hotel, the nondescript lakeside Cove Haven resort. Mr. Wilkins, by all accounts, designed and installed the Poconos’ first heart-shaped bathtub.

Question: During the 60's and 70's where was Louise taking up space?

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: What years does the Exhibition For a New World to Come span?

★ ‘For a New World to Come: Experiments in Japanese Art and Photography, 1968-1979’ (through Jan. 10) This exceptionally informative exhibition presents photographs, photography books, paintings, sculptures and videos produced by 29 Japanese artists during a decade of ideological disillusionment following the utopian excitement of the 1960s. Most of the works are black and white and driven by abstract concepts, with many focused on the nature of photography itself. It’s a dry show, but it’s fascinating for its revelation of memes and trends that continue to resonate in photographic art around the world.

Question: when was an obscure law adopted ?

The biggest setback for this kind of litigation came two years ago when the Supreme Court sharply limited the use of an obscure law adopted in 1789, the Alien Tort Statute, to bring international claims in American courts. Meanwhile, a number of controversies involving Mr. Collingsworth and other lawyers have cast a shadow over the field and made it possible for companies to mount counterattacks. “The bar has been set higher,” for human rights litigation, said Susan H. Farbstein, a law professor at Harvard.

Question: Which actress plays the budding community organizer?

Equally fine on the other side of the story, which is dominated by women, are Ilfenesh Hadera as a Dominican immigrant, Dominique Fishback as a young black mother, and Natalie Paul as a budding community organizer. They all contribute to making “Show Me a Hero” more than worthwhile, and certainly as grounded and authentically textured as any television drama you’re likely to come across. It may not have the visceral pull that mystery and violence gave “The Wire,” or the emotional highs that music gave “Treme,” but you could do worse than a good lecture on civility, tolerance and the virtues of good government.

Question: Who was unable to negotiate the passage of legislation relating to Australia's Medicare system?

Proposed university overhauls, widely disliked by voters, stalled in Parliament, and a paid parental leave plan and a co-payment for visits to the doctor covered by Australia’s Medicare system were either amended or dropped by the government, which could not negotiate the passage of the legislation.

Question: Who is the Rangers Goalie coach

During the final few drills, Benoit Allaire, the Rangers’ goalie coach, watched carefully as Lundqvist was pelted with more shots. Allaire has been Lundqvist’s coach for his entire N.H.L. career. If anyone could notice anything wrong with Lundqvist, his positioning or his technique, it would be Allaire. Near the end of practice, Lundqvist crouched and began stretching again as Allaire chatted with him. Then Lundqvist left the ice, 62 minutes after he had arrived. As he undressed at his locker, a horde of news media members huddled around him. Lundqvist is the Rangers’ star, and Wednesday’s game rests more on him than on anyone else. He was asked if he was ever nervous before games like this.

Question: What did the company pick up?

Wayfair thinks so. “We are highly focused on delivering an exceptional shopping experience to all of our customers,” wrote a company spokeswoman, Jane Carpenter. “Unfortunately, in this particular case, there was a mix-up in our delivery process and we did not meet our high standards in terms of experience and service.” The company quickly arranged to pick up that patio furniture and sent Mr. Fisher a $250 coupon for future use. “We hope he will give us another chance,” Ms. Carpenter wrote, “to show him the top-notch shopping experience that more accurately represents Wayfair.” Something you would consider, Mr. Fisher? “I can’t imagine buying anything more complicated than rugs from Wayfair at this point,” he wrote — unaware, apparently, that to Wayfair, rugs are pretty complicated.

Question: In the wild-card showdown, what day of the week did Yankees play?

When the Yankees play in their wild-card showdown on Tuesday, many will no doubt recall the team’s most famous one-game do-or-die affair, Game 163 in Boston in 1978, when Bucky Dent hit a three-run homer over the Green Monster to win the division title. But two years before Dent was born, the Yankees were involved in a similar make-or-break game. It came on the final day of the season and capped a pennant race with enough drama to rival that of 1978.

Question: Newspapers with what large readership have gotten into trouble for how they handle photos of women?

An Irish satirical news source, Waterford Whispers, responded by posting its own “feminist newspaper photoshop,” featuring the same Paris street scene with three female leaders depicted, but no men.

That will include managing the Liberals’ governing coalition with the smaller, more conservative National Party, which is unlikely to embrace attempts by Mr. Turnbull to move to the center. Mr. Gregory said he expected few policy changes from Mr. Turnbull in the short term. Indeed, in his first session of Parliament as prime minister on Tuesday, Mr. Turnbull made it clear that on at least two issues over which he has criticized Mr. Abbott in the past — climate change and same-sex marriage — his predecessor’s policies would continue.

Question: How much profit does Indian Railways turn?

Indian Railways is primarily a form of employment that also runs trains. It employs more than 1.3 million people, and in the last fiscal year earned about 1.6 trillion rupees, or $25.2 billion, or less than 14 percent of the revenue of Apple. The railway spends almost as much as it earns. Often it turns in a small profit, but that is a result of legally sanctioned accounting wizardry. For instance, the way it calculates depreciation on its assets is not how companies conduct the same exercise. Also, it does not spend as much as it should on upgrading its trains, research or on safety.

Question: Where were the crews cutting trees and getting up some of the underbrush?

On the ground, where crews are slashing down lines of trees and pulling up underbrush in an effort to scrape down to bare earth, where fire cannot catch, the changed fire behavior means that swaths have to be cut wider and that firefighters have less time during which it is safe to work. “The younger guys, we have to keep pulling them back,” Captain Oatman said, noting that the eagerness of novices to put out the fire must be tamped by new safety precautions in the face of speeding flames. In the fire zone near Clearlake Oaks, teams of firefighters strode through ashy scrubland where the blaze had passed, putting out simmering pockets with hose water in clouds of smoke. The painstaking process of finding and eradicating hot spots will take place over the entire expanse of the fire’s path.

Question: How much did consumer prices in fall in November?

The weaker euro is a mixed blessing for the struggling eurozone economy. European exporters will gain a competitive advantage against foreign rivals because their products will become cheaper for customers who pay in dollars or other currencies that tend to track with the dollar. A weaker euro could also push up inflation — a desirable outcome at the moment — because foreign goods would become more expensive in euro terms. With the collapse of the crude oil market adding to the downward pressure, economists expect an official report next Wednesday to show that consumer prices fell at an annual rate of about 0.1 percent in December, down from the rate of 0.3 percent in November. However, a weaker euro also has negative effects in the eurozone. Because oil is usually priced in dollars, a weak euro cancels out some of the economic benefit from the recent drop in oil prices. Cheaper energy is good for companies because it reduces production costs for factories. Consumers benefit because they pay less for fuel and can spend the money on other things.

Question: Who is the former director of the National Prison Project of the A.C.L.U,?

Many inmates do not get the required medical care, the motion says. “It must be remembered that the great majority of those confined in B.C.D.C. are awaiting trial, and so, under our Constitution, may not be punished,” the motion said, referring to the Baltimore City Detention Center. “Moreover, even for those confined in the jail who have been convicted, the Constitution does not permit them to be punished by denial of medical or mental health care, or by subjecting them to conditions of confinement that are unreasonably dangerous or inconsistent with human dignity.” The problem has been long in the making as Baltimore did not invest in upkeep of the jail, the oldest sections of which date from the 1850s, said Elizabeth Alexander, the former director of the National Prison Project of the A.C.L.U. and one of the lawyers who filed the motion. “There have been decades of neglect; this didn’t just happen in a day,” she said. “Lack of staff, lack of resources and ultimately a lack of priority for people who don’t have much influence in society all led to this.”

Question: Who was not allowed to play for awhile because of the controversy?

No, it was the Super Bowl’s turn. This was true despite the fact that many a non-American struggles to understand the rules and appeal of the country’s favorite diversion. This was also true despite the stiff headwinds facing the National Football League: the dead-serious concerns about head trauma and domestic violence, and the less-weighty obsession with whether Tom Brady and the New England Patriots were responsible for deflating footballs earlier in the playoffs in search of an unfair advantage. Deflategate (the French daily Le Monde called it “Le Deflategate”) dominated the build-up to the Super Bowl, and then dominated the off-season, too, with Brady initially suspended for four games before that ruling was overturned by a federal judge.

Question: For whom is the poetry program designed for?

“It seemed that going over poetry with her and singing songs with her was a tremendous way to interact with her,” he recalled. “When we did that, she acted decades younger than she was otherwise.” Convinced that poetry could be therapeutic, he asked the Sarah Neuman Center, the Westchester County campus of a sprawling nonprofit, Jewish Home Lifecare, based near his home in New Rochelle, to let him give readings, and the administration agreed. This year, he felt confident enough about his experience to write about it in The Journal of Poetry Therapy, in an article titled “A Poetry Program for the Very Elderly — Narrative Perspective on One Therapeutic Model.” In it, he argues that without intending to do so, he has developed a curriculum for others to follow.

Question: What women's aspiration does Mrs. Clinton embody with her candidacy?

The donations from countries with poor records on women’s rights, however, presented a difficult appearance problem for a candidate running in part as the embodiment of women’s aspirations to equality. “It’s a perfect example of the conflict of interest here,” said Richard W. Painter, a White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush. “The United States has at least two issues that are very important with Saudi Arabia,” he said. “One is continuing to fight terrorism, and the second is the rights of women.” Mrs. Clinton’s ramp-up to a candidacy built around women’s issues continues in New York on Monday, when she and the philanthropist Melinda Gates unveil the “No Ceilings” report. The next day, Mrs. Clinton will be the keynote speaker at a United Nations gathering on women’s empowerment.

Question: What are the three parts of the combine?

Yet the basic purpose of the combine did not change. It was an opportunity for teams to better predict the professional potential of a group, made up mostly of 18-year-olds, based on their body types, quickness, agility, stamina and attitude. “No player has to prove anything, because this is not a competition,” said Dan Marr, the N.H.L.’s director for central scouting, while describing the three components of the combine — medical screening, personal interviews and physical testing. Yet the environment and the personalities of the participants invite comparison, from the news media, the fans and the scouts. “They try to tell us it’s not a competition, but we’re all naturally pretty competitive, so we want to do our best,” said Noah Hanifin, a defenseman for Boston College and the player ranked third in the draft class by N.H.L. Central Scouting. “They will push us to our limits, and whatever happens, happens.”

Question: What would the games do for Boston?

Their main pitch: The overhauled plan, updated from a widely panned version first offered in January, would generate millions of dollars in new tax revenue, create tens of thousands of new jobs and produce thousands of new housing units, parks and other neighborhood amenities that would provide a lasting legacy. And with taxpayer help, to the tune of more than $700 million, the Games would spur the much-needed upgrade of the transportation infrastructure, improving local roads as well as the beleaguered subway system. Officials argued that these were costs that taxpayers would have to bear regardless of whether Boston won the Olympics. The plan went into great detail on how the Games would transform two Boston neighborhoods: Widett Circle, the home of a temporary Olympic Stadium, and Columbia Point, home to the athletes’ village.

Question: Where was the article by Xinhua published?

With a dearth of information from the government, the market mayhem — and the crackdown that has followed — has created a ripe environment for rumor. On Monday, the website of another official media outlet, China National Radio, published an article from Xinhua stating that an associate of Mr. Xu had been shot and killed by the police while trying to escape. The report was quickly retracted with no explanation and was not available on Xinhua’s website. Later in the day, Xinhua reported on one of its social media accounts that its name and that of one of its reporters were used falsely to spread a “rumor” that the police had killed Mr. Xu’s associate. Xinhua reported the incident to the police. A picture purportedly of Mr. Xu’s arrest, with him in handcuffs and wearing what looked like a white lab coat, was posted on the website of Sina.com, one of the most popular Internet portals in China.

Question: What can hip-hop dance address?

The routines are all out of shape, truncated where they should be developed further, extended way past where they should end. The performers’ impressive specialty steps — the flips, the windmills, the head spins and backspins — are sprinkled indiscriminately, losing the force they might have had. Even the dancers’ smiles are clumsy. At first I thought their bizarrely clownish grins were some comment on falsity or cultural assimilation; then I decided they were actually a misguided effort to play to the children. The show is a string of unrealized ideas. Spiritual striving is expressed not through dance but through slow-motion walking toward a video backdrop of heavenly clouds. A snatch of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” teases with a hint of nostalgic pleasure; what follows instead are performers in fright masks doing power moves in front of images of war and of the twin towers burning. Hip-hop dance can successfully address such heavy subject matter, but not like this.

Question: In what month did The New York Times conduct an investigation?

The cap was criticized by many lawmakers last year when regulators imposed a penalty of $35 million on G.M. after it failed to report for more than a decade a deadly ignition defect. At the time, the defect was linked to 13 deaths. It is now linked to at least 124. The penalty was reported by Reuters and The Wall Street Journal. It could come just days after the highway safety agency’s announcement that it will overhaul a rating system for cars that has for years awarded high marks to almost all vehicles. The action is another move against the auto industry for the agency, which came under withering criticism last year from lawmakers in congressional hearings for not being aggressive enough on the industry it is charged with overseeing. Last September, an investigation by The New York Times found that, during the last decade, the agency had often been slow to identify and act on safety defects, and reluctant to use its full legal powers against automakers.

Question: What school did Baker Mayfield transfer from?

Much has changed on offense for the Sooners. Coach Bob Stoops replaced the offensive coordinators Josh Heupel (now at Utah State) and Jay Norvell (now at Texas) with Lincoln Riley, who installed a spread “air raid” offense. Baker Mayfield, a walk-on transfer from Texas Tech, won the job of starting quarterback over Trevor Knight, who led the Sooners over Alabama in the Sugar Bowl two seasons ago. Mayfield could be poised for a big game. Last week, Tennessee allowed 433 yards passing. Fans in Knoxville are dying for a big victory, and Neyland Stadium is sure to be rocking. Oklahoma is the favorite on the road, but this one promises to be close. 20 Boise State at B.Y.U.

Answer: Texas Tech

Question: What type of app is AirStrip?

Mr. Cook also presented a new, enhanced Apple TV, which represents the company’s most ambitious effort yet to become the focal point of home entertainment systems. Apple TV already streams videos and music. Now it is set to offer video games, shopping and travel tools through an expanded array of apps. “Our vision for TV is simple,” Mr. Cook said. “We believe the future of television is apps.” The new version of Apple TV also includes a remote control that could be used as a video game controller. The product now comes with a higher price tag that starts at $150, up from $70, indicating that the company is betting that consumers will think all of the new features are worth the higher price. Jeff Williams, Apple’s senior vice president of operations, also talked about improvements to the Apple Watch, including a number of new apps like Facebook Messenger and AirStrip, a health care app that lets doctors coordinate patient care and monitor health data.

Question: Was the crowd in Columbus friendly to Dayton?

COLUMBUS, Ohio —  To earn a spot in the main portion of the N.C.A.A. tournament, Dayton slipped by Boise State this week in a play-in contest that was a virtual home game for the Flyers. When the team traveled an hour east to Columbus, it was as if the Flyers had moved from their living room to their kitchen. In front of a friendly crowd Friday night, Dayton, the East Region’s No. 11 seed, used a second-half to surge to defeat sixth-seeded Providence, 66-53, at Nationwide Arena. It was the tournament’s only game of the day in which the lower-seeded team won.

Question: Who were referred to as little green men?

The training aims to remold the Ukrainian units by increasing the responsibilities of noncommissioned officers, fixing a Soviet legacy of an officer-heavy infantry. Without sergeants paying attention, basic mistakes were being made, the trainers said. Capt. Nicholas Salimbene, an American trainer, noticed with alarm that the Ukrainians were carrying their rifles with the safeties off. “It’s about the professionalism of the force,” he said. “We want them to look like soldiers.” “You see reports about the little green men,” he said, referring to the Russian soldiers who invaded the Crimean Peninsula last year in unmarked uniforms, “and they all walk around professionally, and carry their weapons professionally.” The Ukrainians should, too, Captain Salimbene said. The United States is also providing advanced courses for military professionals known as forward observers — the ones who call in targets — to improve the accuracy of artillery fire, making it more lethal for the enemy and less so for civilians. Oleksandr I. Leshchenko, the deputy director for training in the National Guard, was somewhat skeptical about the value of the training, saying that “99 percent” of the men in the course had already been in combat.

Question: Who has become one of the project's most vocal champions?

The Flussbad speaks to a tradition here; there are other urban Flussbads in this part of the world, so the idea has local resonance. Gottfried Ludewig is a young member of the Berlin City Parliament from the center-right Christian Democratic Union, Angela Merkel’s party. He has become one of the project’s most vocal champions, enlisting political allies across the aisle, corralling money for a feasibility study and promoting a grass-roots, community-based campaign. Neither he nor Tim Edler would divulge the project’s projected cost, which must be many, many millions of dollars. But both said the major hurdle would not be money. The real struggle is over civic identity.

Question: Who is the author of this article?

While a $1.5 billion cash infusion from Quebec’s public pension management fund last week stabilized the financial situation at Bombardier, the Canadian plane and train maker will still have much to explain at an investor day in New York on Tuesday. The new cash came on top of $1 billion from the Quebec government and both were made necessary by the company’s struggling plan to move up from business and regional jets to compete directly with Boeing and Airbus in the airliner market. Among other things, investors will be looking for signs that Bombardier can find a substantial number of buyers for its overdue and overcost C Series jets. —Ian Austen

Question: Who brings a popular message of social justice?

He added, “I think that our church in Cuba is still looking too much into itself.” But Francis has unique advantages in Cuba, given that he is a native Spanish speaker bearing a popular message of social justice and the pitfalls of capitalism. Cuban officials have already signaled their approval. During his last trip to the Vatican, Raúl Castro joked that Francis might even convince him to return to church. Few expect that a Cuban government still so firmly in power is going to roll over, no matter how popular the pope may be. And those government critics, especially in Miami, who want Francis to publicly rebuke Mr. Castro are likely to be disappointed. The toughest negotiations will likely happen in private. “Cuba is his hardest task,” Mr. Hare said. “He will know that he has to engineer a new path in Cuba and he has the best opportunity yet with his rhetoric, background of social activism and lack of stuffiness to open the key to the Cuban door.”

Question: who ended up getting their way?

Analysts and commentators from across the political spectrum welcomed the agreement. Iranian officials called the agreement a “statement” and a “solution,” in keeping with Mr. Khamenei’s pronouncement that any deal would have to lift all sanctions in one step. The American negotiators had preferred a step-by-step approach, but the Iranians seem to have gotten their way, for the most part.

Question: On which day of the week did Boehner announce his retirement?

When Mr. Thomas retired in 2006, Mr. McCarthy, who was serving in the California State Assembly, ran for his seat. Mr. McCarthy rose quickly through the Republican ranks in part because of his fund-raising skills. Along with Representatives Eric Cantor of Virginia and Paul D. Ryan of Wisconsin, Mr. McCarthy was part of a group of so-called Young Guns in 2010 who were crucial to Republicans’ regaining the majority. During that cycle, Mr. McCarthy was head of recruiting for the National Republican Congressional Committee, which provides another base of support for him among the rank and file. The No. 2 Republican in the House is often such a shoo-in for the speaker’s job that the fight for that lower post generates the fiercest competition among lawmakers climbing the ranks. Mr. Boehner said on Friday that he had planned to resign last year, but reversed his decision after the unexpected election loss of Mr. Cantor, the No. 2 Republican at the time, left Mr. Boehner without an obvious successor.

Question: Minnesota held off a furious attempt and held their lead to how many points late in the game?

Ricky Rubio tied a career high with 17 assists for the Timberwolves, who held off a late charge from the Jazz that cut a 15-point deficit to 6 even as Utah was playing without Derrick Favors. Trey Burke scored all 23 of his points in the second half for Utah. The Jazz have been gutted by injuries to much of their foundation, including Rudy Gobert, Dante Exum and Alec Burks. Relying on replacements for them and for Favors has left the team playing sloppy basketball of late. SPURS 112, SUNS 79 LaMarcus Aldridge had 21 points and 12 rebounds, and San Antonio easily won its 19th straight home game to start the season. The Spurs also extended their franchise-record home winning streak to 28 straight games dating to last season.
