Question: Who has struggled to control the flow of synthetic cannabinoids?

Law enforcement agencies, from the Drug Enforcement Administration to local police departments, have struggled to control the flow of synthetic cannabinoids, substances that look like marijuana that are sprayed with a hallucinogenic chemical and then smoked. Those chemicals, typically imported from China by American distributors, come in hundreds of varieties; new formulations appear monthly, with molecules subtly tweaked to try to skirt the D.E.A.’s list of illegal drugs as well as drug-detecting urine tests. Although the entire class of drugs is illegal because of the psychological effects, each new variety can present distinct health risks caused by its underlying chemistry or contaminants in renegade manufacturing facilities. Experts warn that the popular term “synthetic marijuana” is a misnomer, as the substances merely resemble marijuana but can be 100 times as potent. The use of synthetic cannabinoids as well as calls to poison control centers had decreased from 2011 through 2014, as awareness of their danger and illegality has spread, national data indicates.

Question: What will be the topic at the United Nations gathering where Mrs. Clinton will be the keynote speaker?

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: Why will there be less water in the future?

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: How does she make you feel?

My best friend and I are going through a rough patch, but I’m pretty sure she’s not even aware of it. We moved to New York after college 10 years ago and still live together. Work is going well for us; we both date. But she has been getting more and more critical of friends, potential boyfriends and co-workers every day. I hate to use the word “toxic,” but that’s what it feels like. She never stops judging. Should I extricate myself or what?

Question: How should women "battle"?

After all, as Ms. Sandberg pointed out in her book, without mentioning Ms. Slaughter, “the very concept … flies in the face of the basic laws of economics and common sense.” Toward the end of “Lean In,” Ms. Sandberg reviewed the social psychology literature around the tendency of women themselves in certain environments to perpetuate gender bias and recommended some ways to avoid falling into this trap. The institutional tendency to use minor disagreements among women as an excuse to do nothing, she argues, requires women to choose their battles carefully. “We should resolve our differences quickly, and when we disagree, stay focused on our shared goals. This is not a plea for less debate, but for more constructive debate,” Ms. Sandberg wrote. Based on Ms. Slaughter’s book, it would seem that persuading other powerful women to respond positively to Ms. Sandberg’s appeal is another piece of unfinished business.

Question: What day will the new president begin fighting Boko Haram?

What I can pledge, with absolute certainty, is that from the first day of my administration, Boko Haram will know the strength of our collective will and commitment to rid this nation of terror, and bring back peace and normalcy to all the affected areas. Until now, Nigeria has been wanting in its response to their threat: With our neighbors fighting hard to push the terrorists south and out of their countries, our military was not sufficiently supported or equipped to push north. As a consequence, the outgoing government’s lack of determination was an accidental enabler of the group, allowing them to operate with impunity in Nigerian territory.

Question: Ms. Clyne's musical creation process is rooted in what?

Ms. Clyne is at work on a chamber opera about the poet Emily Dickinson, parts of which will be performed at Miller by the Ensemble Signal under the direction of Brad Lubman. This time, Ms. Clyne used facsimiles of letters by Dickinson to jump-start the creative process, projecting her handwriting onto a wall and retracing the magnified letters with an indelible marker. The end product — fastidiously constructed compositions that typically carry a potent emotional charge — bears no traces of these playful beginnings, although Ms. Wolfe remembers Ms. Clyne turning in scores that were beautifully lettered and bound by hand. But there is a distinct sense of shape and momentum to her music that grows out of a creative process rooted in image and movement.

Question: Who played in water waist deep?

Stewart stayed in water waist deep as Jirkovsky emerged from the sea at Cissy Cove, greeted by three sailors, all armed. Channel swimmers must begin “toes dry,” and Jirkovsky took several steps beyond the tide line to make sure the swim would qualify. Then he placed his goggles over his eyes, jogged back toward the sea and began to swim. The sailors honked horns and flashed blue and red lights in salute. The captain of the Bottom Scratcher sounded her horn, too, and the Deep Enders and their support team cheered. If all went according to plan, within 36 hours, they would make open-water swimming history.

Question: Who did Dr King write his letters to?

But everything they say is drawn from works produced two decades apart: “The Diary of a Young Girl: The Definitive Edition,” the unexpurgated version of Frank’s Holocaust journal, and “Letter From a Birmingham Jail,” a rebuke to Southern white clergymen that Dr. King wrote while imprisoned for civil disobedience in Alabama in 1963. “I tried to match passages,” Ms. Vaughn said. She added that when reading Frank’s diary, which is in epistolary form, she would think, “What does she say that might spark a response from him?”

Question: How does the company mentioned in the passage charge it's customers?

That proliferation of start-ups has led to a new complaint from computer security chiefs: overlapping information — sometimes as much as 40 percent — in the reports they receive, none of which is cheap. ISight charges customers based on size, and while it does not disclose pricing, some customers say they pay $500,000 or more annually for the company’s services, as much as five times what low-end services charge. ISight makes 90 percent of its revenue from subscriptions to its six intelligence streams, each focused on a particular threat, including cyberespionage and cybercrime.

Question: What was thought to lead to a more promising outcome than the coup?

But in singling out Tunisia, whose 2011 street rebellion overthrew an entrenched dictatorship and launched the “Arab Spring,” the Norwegian Nobel committee also underscored the dismal failure of the uprisings that followed in other Arab states. That, presumably, was the committee’s intent, to demonstrate that a national dialogue led by civic groups can lead a country to an outcome far more promising than the coup that put an end to Egypt’s democratic aspirations or the civil strife that sank Libya, Syria and Yemen into anarchic violence.

Question: Who was pressured into signing a report stating that he wasnt beaten?

Mr. Aponte, along with several other inmates, said they were initially denied medical care. Days later, when he was finally taken to the prison clinic, officers warned him not to tell the medical staff how he got his injuries, he wrote in a letter. “The sergeant tells me that I’ve been in prison for a long time and I should know better, that if I didn’t tell the nurse that was going to examine me that nothing has happened that they were going to kill me for real this time,” he wrote. Paul Davila, another resident of the honor block, wrote in his complaint that after he was beaten during an interrogation, he was pressured to “sign a report stating, ‘I was not assaulted.’ ”

Question: How much does it cost to visit the musuem?

Aficionados of lowbrow aesthetics are also heading to Glòries, thanks to the arresting Encants Barcelona, the new home for the area’s historic flea market — a ramped space, open on the sides, with slender columns supporting an angular reflective metal canopy. Since the market moved here in 2013, it’s been drawing 120,000 antiques- and junk-seekers a week to early morning auctions and the stalls that open directly after the last lot has sold. Ironically, the building housing the Barcelona Design Museum — a squat, zinc-clad structure with front and rear cantilevers — hasn’t exactly been celebrated for its exterior form. Some have taken to calling it “the Stapler.” The museum, which unites collections of Catalan decorative arts, graphics, ceramics, textiles and fashion that previously had been scattered throughout the city, was originally to be the building’s sole occupant. But in an effort to make use of its vast interior spaces — and lure people to what is still considered an off-the-beaten-path area — municipal leaders also moved the city’s major design organizations here and named the whole enterprise Design Hub Barcelona, or DHUB, hoping it truly would become a hotbed of design activity. Today, while design professionals show up for events in the building, museum-goers make their way through exhibits that sprawl on four floors, displaying everything from corsets to cruets. The museum, which charges a 5-euro ($5.35) general admission fee, has already drawn about 204,000 visitors. While its holdings may never achieve the popularity of the offerings at the flea market next door, the institution is already helping attract traffic — foot traffic — to the Glòries area. “In the future Glòries will be a place not for cars, but for people,” said Isabel Roig, executive director of Barcelona Design Center, a trade group and one of DHUB’s new tenants.

But in an effort to make use of its vast interior spaces — and lure people to what is still considered an off-the-beaten-path area — municipal leaders also moved the city’s major design organizations here and named the whole enterprise Design Hub Barcelona, or DHUB, hoping it truly would become a hotbed of design activity. Today, while design professionals show up for events in the building, museum-goers make their way through exhibits that sprawl on four floors, displaying everything from corsets to cruets. <hl> The museum, which charges a 5-euro ($5.35) general admission fee, has already drawn about 204,000 visitors. <hl> While its holdings may never achieve the popularity of the offerings at the flea market next door, the institution is already helping attract traffic — foot traffic — to the Glòries area. “In the future Glòries will be a place not for cars, but for people,” said Isabel Roig, executive director of Barcelona Design Center, a trade group and one of DHUB’s new tenants.

Aficionados of lowbrow aesthetics are also heading to Glòries, thanks to the arresting Encants Barcelona, the new home for the area’s historic flea market — a ramped space, open on the sides, with slender columns supporting an angular reflective metal canopy. Since the market moved here in 2013, it’s been drawing 120,000 antiques- and junk-seekers a week to early morning auctions and the stalls that open directly after the last lot has sold.

Question: Who was let go by ESPN?

ESPN will make its annual upfront presentation to advertisers Tuesday morning in a Broadway theater, four days after scripting the latest act in its relationship with Bill Simmons, if not its final one. Last Friday, John Skipper, ESPN’s president, effectively fired Simmons, one of the company’s best known employees and the founding editor of its Grantland website, by announcing that he would not renew his contract. The message was clear: Regardless of your influence or the number of people who listen to your podcasts, no one is bigger than the brand.

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: What is Cook's title?

Timothy D. Cook, Apple’s chief executive, called the new iPad Pro “the most capable” tablet the company has ever created. With a larger screen and optional keyboard, it becomes a device that is meant to be useful for both the creation and consumption of content. “It makes sense for Apple to reveal a new keyboard along with new, larger-screen iPads with faster processors,” said Toni Sacconaghi, an analyst at Sanford C. Bernstein. “The message being that Apple is trying to push the iPad to be more of a PC replacement, a converged device of a tablet notebook that has broader computing powers.” But starting at $800 (not including the optional $170 keyboard and the $100 stylus), it is much more expensive than earlier iPads.

Question: Who plays the role of Hugh?

Jay’s troubles begin after she sleeps with her new boyfriend, Hugh (Jake Weary), who, after their lovemaking in his car, ties her to a chair under a bridge, and explains her predicament. From him, she has caught a supernatural version of a venereal disease. Having sex with someone else is the only cure, if cure is the right word. The explanations for almost everything that happens are intentionally enigmatic and sometimes completely mystifying. In the most elaborate set piece, Jay dives into an indoor swimming pool, which her friends encircle with electrical appliances. But why? For protection?

Question: Where is the celebration taking place?

“The first digits are actually 3.1415,” said Cindy Lawrence, the museum’s executive director and co-founder. (Pi’s decimal places extend indefinitely.) “So Saturday’s date is the first five digits of pi.” Thus on Saturday, the museum has planned a grand celebration, starting at 9 a.m. in Madison Square Park, where even small children can help form circles. “We’ll get people to line up and count out the distance around the circles, and others to do the distance across them,” Ms. Lawrence said. This pacing will illustrate that the circumference is about three times greater. Staff members will also pass out a graphic and lead a brief countdown to 9:26:53 a.m. because, yes, those are the next digits in pi.

Question: What section of brewing are lagers commonly associated with?

We all agreed signs pointed toward a lager renaissance. “It’s just a cool time for lagers,” Chase said. Why now? Aside from an initial distaste for diving into the style that epitomized industrial brewing, many early craft brewers had other reasons for avoiding lagers, one of the two major forms of beer, along with ales. Minimalist lagers, in general, are more difficult to produce than fruity, complex ales. They are subtle, demanding more precision and more specialized equipment. Ales, by contrast, tend to be more forgiving of errors. It’s a little like the syndicated-television landscape painter Bob Ross, who would earnestly advise turning an accidental blob of paint on canvas into “another happy tree.” That works for ales, but with minimalist lagers, that ugly blob stands out as a flaw.

Question: How do these tourists describe their employment status?

For many New Yorkers this week, as the blizzard panic lifted from the city, the pressing culinary question on Tuesday was, “Now what do I do with all this Dinty Moore?” One answer was just to walk away, perhaps to find a table someplace where the snow outside maintained its fleeting Currier & Ives majesties. Why not? With Tavern on the Green shuttered because of the weather, scenic duty fell to the slight remove of the restaurants of the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle, where the trees of Central Park displayed dustings of white thingamajigs suspended perilously above their inevitable future as unloved street slush. Quiet descended on the city, cocktails and Pat LaFrieda beef products descended on the polished black tables of the Stone Rose Lounge, and stranded tourists consoled themselves for having to spend an extra night in the world’s greatest city. Poor babies. IN THE SEATS At a tall table facing the fourth-floor windows, Noelle Galperin and Ernie Garcia, from Miami, shed no tears for the flight that was supposed to take them home earlier in the day. Ms. Galperin, 46, is a management consultant; Mr. Garcia, 38, runs a financial services company. Both are self-employed. Neither had pressing needs back home. “That’s the beauty of cellphones,” Ms. Galperin said. “We worked a little bit in the morning, took a conference call, and tomorrow we’ll do a little of that. As self-employed entrepreneurs we’re always working, but it’s not bad. We like it.” As for the weather, which scared away much of the usual bustle, Mr. Garcia said he was happy for a little winter. “It was nice to cool down,” he said. “We came from 80-degree weather, so this is a treat.”

Answer: self-employed

Question: For what crimes did Mr. Harrell served several sentences in prison?

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: What does preventive health care cost rather than it saves?

This argument for the cost savings from universal health coverage makes some intuitive sense, but it’s wrong. There’s strong evidence from a variety of sources that people who have health insurance spend more on medical care than people who don’t. It also turns out that almost all preventive health care costs more than it saves. Those facts don’t mean that giving people health insurance is a waste of money, since those dollars spent may improve their health and financial security. But there are only a few situations in which giving someone more health care will actually end up saving money.

Question: Why did the finance professional move to Switzerland?

One American finance professional, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he moved to St. Kitts and Nevis seven years ago for tax purposes, eventually deciding to give up his United States passport. He then moved his family to Switzerland for the schools, European culture and competitive tax benefits. His family is now applying for Maltese passports, attracted by the speed of the program. He would have had to wait 12 years in Switzerland to gain citizenship. “My kids will have the ability to live and work anywhere in the E.U.,” he said. “It’s an incredibly powerful passport.” He does not, however, plan to live in Malta. “We will spend some vacation time there.”

Question: What position does Thomas become a hall of famer for playing?

Dolan announced that Thomas, a Hall of Fame point guard, would serve as president of the W.N.B.A.’s Liberty, the city’s women’s basketball team. “We believe Isiah belongs in basketball,” Madison Square Garden officials said in a statement, “and are grateful that he has committed his considerable talent to help the Liberty succeed.” This statement is fine as far as it goes, particularly if you’ve suffered catastrophic memory loss. Thomas and Dolan last roamed together in the corporate suites at the Garden in 2008. A year before that, a jury found that Thomas had sexually harassed a team executive in the crudest of terms. The executive, now known professionally as Anucha Browne, testified that Thomas had used misogynistic slurs. When she complained to top officials at the Garden, Dolan personally insisted on firing her. Who among us does not believe in repentance and second chances? I called to ask the Garden about Thomas and the boss. Have the two men repented? Do they have second thoughts? Or have they rethought their first thoughts? This email statement arrived in my inbox:

Answer: point guard

<hl> Dolan announced that Thomas, a Hall of Fame point guard , would serve as president of the W.N.B.A.’s Liberty, the city’s women’s basketball team. <hl> “We believe Isiah belongs in basketball,” Madison Square Garden officials said in a statement, “and are grateful that he has committed his considerable talent to help the Liberty succeed.” This statement is fine as far as it goes, particularly if you’ve suffered catastrophic memory loss. Thomas and Dolan last roamed together in the corporate suites at the Garden in 2008. A year before that, a jury found that Thomas had sexually harassed a team executive in the crudest of terms.

Question: Did Mr. Sweat surrender when he was ordered to stop running?

Two days later, a state police sergeant happened upon Mr. Sweat on a rural road a mile and a half from the Canadian border. He chased him into an open field, and when the prisoner refused his order to stop running, the sergeant, a firearms instructor, dropped to one knee and fired, striking him twice from a distance of more than 50 yards with a .45-caliber pistol, two people briefed on the shooting said. Mr. Sweat provided the account to investigators from the State Police, the Department of Corrections and Community Supervision, and the State Inspector General’s Office during several sessions in recent weeks, according to the people briefed on his statements. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk about the investigation. The escape, the manhunt and the resulting spectacle proved to be an embarrassment for the Corrections Department and the administration of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo.

Question: Where did Talbot get his last game?

Cam Talbot got his second straight start in net for the Rangers, with Henrik Lundqvist out for at least three weeks with a vascular injury after a puck hit his throat on Jan. 31. Talbot had a shutout win last season in his last game at Nashville, 90 miles from where he played college hockey in Huntsville, Ala. The Rangers had performed well against Western Conference teams this season, especially on the road; they were 7-1-0 in away games against the West entering Saturday. They had also won four straight in Nashville.

Question: What company has unlimited vacation for their employees?

“What I worry about is how unidimensional computer science students have become as a result of the rigor of the curriculum,” Mr. Sacca said. “They don’t get to study abroad. They don’t have summer jobs. They don’t wait on tables — what you get is a 23-year-old engineer at Google yelling at a chef because they ran out of pheasant that day. They don’t understand how people get by in the developing worlds. They don’t know anyone trying to make payday loan payments. I really worry about how homogeneous our culture is getting in Silicon Valley because of the lack of experience.” Some Silicon Valley chiefs are trying to steer the culture from the top. Netflix’s chief executive and one of its founders, Reed Hastings, says he takes six weeks of vacation a year and hopes the company’s leave policies will inspire loyalty and trust with his workers. The company, which has long had unlimited vacation for employees, recently introduced unlimited parental leave.

Question: In what year did Mattingly retire?

Mattingly’s election to baseball’s Hall of Fame in this, his last year of eligibility, is probably not forthcoming (this year’s class of inductees will be announced Tuesday), a melancholy fact. But then, his playing days as a Yankee had something of a melancholy cast. He arrived for a cup of coffee in 1982, a year after the Yankees went to the World Series, and retired in 1995, a year before they returned. And in the last half of his career he was a diminished player, his skills attenuated by the persistent back problems that forced him to quit prematurely at 34, his spirit likely withered by the mortifying shenanigans of the Yankees’ principal owner, George Steinbrenner, and his minions (who once ordered Mattingly fined and benched for not getting a haircut), not to mention the ignominy of a last-place finish in 1990.

Question: Who is the rookie of the year contender?

This year’s Bulls team is also a new vintage, offering Rose more supporting offensive firepower. Pau Gasol, a seasoned veteran and an N.B.A. champion with the Los Angeles Lakers who was signed during the off-season, was an All-Star starter this season. Nikola Mirotic is a sharpshooter and a rookie of the year contender. Jimmy Butler, who led the Bulls with 25 points Saturday, has emerged as a star. “I’m grateful to be playing with my teammates,” Rose said. “They allow me to play the way I normally play. It’s an honor. I’m really fortunate because I think, anywhere else, it wouldn’t be the same.”

Question: What was the name of the team that won a national championship around 2014?

Even before last season, the notion that Krzyzewski eschewed one-and-dones for upperclassmen was obviously untrue. But whatever was left of it was interred by the 2014-15 Blue Devils, who won a national title on the backs of four freshmen, three of whom — Jahlil Okafor, Justise Winslow and Tyus Jones — promptly declared for the N.B.A. draft and were selected in its first round. In the title game, they and Grayson Allen, then a freshman, scored 60 of Duke’s 68 points, including all 37 in the second half. “The ability to adapt is key in everything,” Krzyzewski said immediately after that victory. “I think I’ve adapted well.”

Question: In what inning did Clint Robinson hit a double?

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 animal shot in Laos was included in the first episode?

Was that venerable PBS venturing into the lowbrow world of veterinary television this week? Yes, it was, and Dr. Jeff should take a lesson. A three-part series called “Operation Wild,” which began on Wednesday on PBS, brings us stirring stories of veterinary teams around the globe engaged in unusual high-tech efforts to save sick or injured wild animals. The methods employed are often adapted from human medical care. The opening episode included the stories of an elephant in Laos that had been shot in the leg, a gorilla at a wildlife sanctuary in Cameroon with a damaged wrist, and an annual kite-flying festival in India that leaves hundreds of birds injured by the kite strings. Next week’s installment offers efforts to give a rhinoceros a skin graft and to restore the sight of an orangutan.

Question: What keeps DNA from fraying?

Once the scientists figured out how to keep the animals happy, Dr. Brunet’s team got down to the scientific work. They sequenced the entire genome of the turquoise killifish, identifying a number of genes known to influence aging in other species, including mice and humans. Dr. Harel then built molecular tools the team could use to tinker with the fish’s genes. Using a new technique called Crispr, he created molecular scissors that could snip out any piece of killifish DNA and replace it with a different one. To test his tools, Dr. Harel and his colleagues tinkered with a gene called TERT, which protects DNA from wear and tear. It encodes a protein that helps build caps at the ends of DNA molecules called telomeres. Telomeres, like the plastic tips at the ends of shoelaces, keep DNA from fraying. As cells divide, their telomeres get shorter, and this change probably plays a role in aging. But how is still a mystery.
