Question: What year is Joan Miró’s clairvoyant masterpiece from?

“The Birth of the World,” Joan Miró’s clairvoyant masterpiece from 1927, presaged much of postwar American painting — the early date can elicit a double take when you see it at the Museum of Modern Art. Its expansive surface of thin gray pours and washes, and the delicate lines and shapes in black, red and white that dance across them, open a pathway to so much: the automatic drawing of Surrealism, the frank painterliness and scale of Abstract Expressionism and the lightness and elegance of Color Field painting. So when Miró (1893-1983) took tips from the Abstract Expressionists on his first trip to New York in 1947 and again in 1959, he was learning from artists who had already learned from him. This fascinating show proposes that encountering New York painting enabled Miró to lose some of his refinement and play up a roughness and scale only intermittently visible before. Rather than delicate and nib thin, his lines thickened, brightened and became more dominant, no longer subservient to shapes. “Bird in the Night” is spareness itself: not much more than an open black ovoid and a looping red wishbone that effortlessly summon nest, egg and occupant. Elsewhere Miró improvised layer upon layer, adding a parade of harlequin creatures over a big brown splash of runny paint in “Figures, Birds,” and in “Woman and Bird in the Night,” girdling a series of colorful dots and scribbles in black. Nearly every canvas here is a different excursion into paint, materiality and poetic suggestion. The ensemble enlarges and contemporizes Miró, especially in a commercial gallery’s relatively intimate viewing conditions.

Question: how many more tests did Harris do than Harris thought they would?

“I played 27 more tests than I ever thought I would,” Harris said Saturday. “I relished every single moment of them.” His departure robs Australia of its one bowler who has proved effective in English conditions, as he was its leading wicket-taker in England in 2013. Harris, 35, was a subtle craftsmen among a clutch of flamethrowers, relying on control and variation. rather than sheer speed. His loss increases Australia’s likely reliance on its two fearsome left-armers, Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Johnson, and it is also a reminder of one potential vulnerability of the defending champion — its age. Brad Haddin, the wicketkeeper, and Chris Rogers, an opening batsman, are both 37. Middle-order batsman Adam Voges is a 35-year-old test rookie. Johnson is 33, while captain Michael Clarke is 34 and has a history of back trouble. Much will depend on Clarke’s heir apparent as captain, Steve Smith. The 26-year-old was once regarded as a “bits and pieces” player who was not quite good enough in any of his roles, but he has developed into a batting specialist who now tops the world rankings.

Question: who is England's test captain?

“To be successful against Australia, it’s certainly not going to be by taking a backward step or allowing them just to dictate terms,” he said last week. “You’ve got to go out and fight fire with fire, be positive and aggressive, and the individuals have to play their own natural game.” That has not always been the English way, but there were signs of a new freedom in its just-concluded matches against New Zealand. Billed as little more than a curtain-raiser for the Ashes, the two tests and five one-day internationals against the Kiwis left most fans wanting more. England’s under-fire test captain, Alastair Cook, returned to form as a batsman. Often criticized for his ultra-orthodox leadership, he also showed signs of greater tactical imagination. “I think Alastair is at a phase of his career where he is not afraid to try new things to try and get success,” said his predecessor as captain, Andrew Strauss, who now is England’s director of cricket.

Question: What city did Robert Griffin III play for at some point?

While the Giants are methodical, embracing change with the speed of a glacier, Snyder has presided over change after change in futile pursuit of buying, leasing or renting a championship.

More critically, on Snyder’s watch, Washington has seemingly ruined quarterback Robert Griffin III.

Question: How many head coaches have there been under Snyder?

Answer: eight

While the Giants are methodical, embracing change with the speed of a glacier, Snyder has presided over change after change in futile pursuit of buying, leasing or renting a championship. <hl> So far, that effort has seen him burn through eight head coaches and more than a dozen starting quarterbacks. <hl> The only thing Snyder has not changed — and the one thing he should — is his team’s offensive nickname. “Redskins” has become a weight that hangs around the franchise’s neck like a yoke. More critically, on Snyder’s watch, Washington has seemingly ruined quarterback Robert Griffin III.

Question: Who did the republicans try to prove wrong with the senate up for grabs in 2016?

WASHINGTON —  Barney Frank once told me that asking Republicans to govern was like asking him, the first openly gay member of Congress, to judge the Miss America contest: He would do it, but he wouldn’t enjoy it much or be very good at it. With control of the Senate up for grabs in 2016, Senate Republicans have spent the year trying to prove Mr. Frank wrong. And Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the majority leader, believes they have been pretty good at it — particularly when measured against the vicious stalemate of the previous four years. “I think the Senate is functioning again and producing results,” Mr. McConnell said in an interview as he assessed 2015 and looked ahead to a challenging election cycle that could quickly end his control of the Senate agenda if the public disagrees with his take.
