Question: Who shot down a Russian Warplane?

“It’s hard to imagine a better training drill,” he said of the bombing in Syria. Since Turkey shot down a Russian warplane that it said had violated its airspace, Mr. Putin has engaged in a war of words with the Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, and ordered a number of retaliatory measures. On Thursday, he made clear that Russia has made Syria a no-fly zone for Turkish airplanes. “Turkey used to violate Syrian airspace all the time,” Mr. Putin said. “Let them try and fly there now,” he said, noting that Russia’s most advanced air defense system, the S-400, can hit any target in Syria.

Question: The listed example of exports to Russia are cookies, crackers, and what?

Russia is one of Turkey’s largest markets for exports, after Germany. Eskisehir (pronounced Es-ki-SHARE) itself has a large sugar refinery, using sugar beets from nearby fields as its raw material; the city exports about $30 million worth of cookies, cakes, crackers and other foods to Russia, according to the local chamber of commerce. Turkey had been stepping up food exports to Russia in recent months as political frictions between Russia and the West led to a reduction in Russian food imports from the European Union.

Question: What movie seems at odds with itself?

From its opening moments, “People Places Things” seems at odds with itself. It is realistic about New York place names yet disconnected from reality. Will, who is handsome in an appealingly scruffy way, is a faithful husband with a warm, self-deprecating sense of humor and an acute roving intelligence. Only a fool would trade him for Gary, a glum, pudgy blob. Although this cowering, monosyllabic marshmallow makes several more appearances in the film, Mr. Strouse’s screenplay doesn’t give him a single likable trait.

Question: Who was apparently the President of the US at the time of this letter?

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech was a fascinating demonstration of political savvy — Israeli political savvy. Here he was in the center of the democratic universe with the guts to tell the United States that it was making a bad deal. To his political base at home, this must have looked heroic. At the same time he made the Republican side of the aisle react like a bunch of sixth graders cheering for Justin Bieber, since the net effect of the speech was to diminish the efforts by the administration to suppress Iran’s hunger for nuclear capacity and make President Obama look weak.

Question: What percentage of freshwater consumed is associated with discarded food?

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

Question: How long after her Amnestic M.C.I. diagnosis did Sandy progress to Alzheimer's disease?

On a quiet Friday morning in November 2010, Sandy sat down with a mug of honey-ginger tea to read two books that Daryl had brought her. By this point, a year and a half after her amnestic M.C.I. diagnosis, she had progressed to what Duffy said was Alzheimer’s disease. She had retired from Cornell, but she was doing well. She could still travel alone to familiar destinations, including Austin, Tex., where Emily was living. Jeremy had temporarily moved back home to be with her. She could read novels, even difficult ones like Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road.” She played tennis, gardened and went for walks around Ithaca with a handful of friends, most of them former colleagues from Cornell. She saw a few psychotherapy patients. One would later say that even though Sandy was having some trouble remembering words, “it didn’t really matter. In a therapy relationship you’re talking more about emotions — and in that regard, she didn’t miss a beat.”

Question: Which player debuted in the day's second game?

The rain led to a 21-minute delay from the scheduled start time of 1:10 p.m. Even after the Mets recorded the first three outs of the day, bringing about an early seventh-inning stretch, patrons were still trickling in, a mix of fans taking advantage of the opportunity to watch 11-plus innings of baseball and others anticipating the debut of Steven Matz in the second game. Saturday’s attendees were allowed to exchange their tickets for Sunday but were placed in different locations. The confusion even affected those not at the park: WPIX broadcast the end of Saturday’s game before SNY took over for the second game. Collins said his players’ routines would not change much, but the unorthodox circumstances befuddled him to a degree. He was not certain of the technicalities of the rule, but he said he planned to carry Matz as a 26th player because the team was playing an extra game on Sunday and therefore did not have to make a corresponding move to make room for him.

Question: What type of birds does Sally keep?

The doorbell at the Mann home in Lexington, Va., is a small, black, wrought-iron breast. Visitors announce themselves by pressing a red nipple within the raised areola. Like the red-metal dragons that line the driveway or the 20-by-24-inch blowups of the children in the foyer or the photograph on the living room wall of Sally Mann’s father, dead in his bathrobe, the doorbell seems designed to give a start to the uninitiated and to put some comic distance between the occupants and their neighbors. The same attitude of defiance is there in the cover portrait of “Immediate Family.” Bare-chested with arms crossed or akimbo, the three little Manns level their gaze at the world. Children and house both project the sensibilities of Sally Mann herself. A 41-year-old dark-haired beauty whose turned-up nose accentuates a natural hauteur, she is a cool mom. With her brood safely strapped in, she drives a black BMW 735i, very fast, and favors a subdued, asexual preppy look — turtle-necks and T-shirts, cut-off shorts, dirty Reeboks. Lexington is a genteel town, site of Stonewall Jackson’s house, Washington and Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute. Born and raised here, married to the same man for 22 years, Mann is secure enough in her surroundings to take liberties with the mores of a place only 50 miles from the headquarters of the Rev. Jerry Falwell and his Moral Majority. “I think the South depends on its eccentrics,” she says one summer afternoon on the back porch as Jessie and Virginia weave in and out of the house. (Emmett is away at camp.) “It loves them, and it rewards them in lots of ways. This community allows itself to be scandalized by me and by my work, but they love it. What else would they do if it wasn’t for me? I take being iconoclastic sort of seriously. It’s my role here.” Ex-”dirt hippies” who still grow much of their own food and until a decade and a half ago barely made enough money to pay taxes, Sally and Larry Mann are a tight couple. Both “Immediate Family” and “At Twelve,” her portraits of local girls on the cusp of puberty, are dedicated to him. While she has pursued her photography career with singleminded purpose, he has been a blacksmith and a two-term City Councilman; recently, he got a law degree. His office in town is 10 minutes away, and he walks home nearly every day for lunch. Their house has an airy mood of understated comfort, its three levels overlooking a wisteria arbor and a well-tended vegetable garden in a yard that slopes down to a creek. Rope swings and hammocks hang from ash-leaved maples. The decor includes photographs by Diane Arbus and Emmet Gowin, both important figures for Mann; walls of books; marble torsos of nude women; finches in cages and flying free; the skeletons of lizards and cats. An expansion completed this year provides each child his or her own room; Sally and Larry reside in a connecting wing, which also houses her new darkroom and offices. To meet the demand for her work, she can now afford to hire an assistant. The slow, wet air of southern Virginia in July and August, when even the trees perspire, serves as a backdrop for Mann’s idylls of leisure. “Even though I take pictures of my children, they’re still about here,” she says. “It exerts a hold on me that I can’t define.”

Question: How long was the recitation of the verdicts?

As Judge Carlos Samour Jr. read the 165 counts against Mr. Holmes, the defendant stood silently between his lawyers, staring straight ahead, with his hands tucked into the pockets of a pair of khaki-colored pants. He did not glance at his parents sitting two rows behind. When the hourlong recitation of the verdicts was done, he sat down and lightly swiveled in his chair. Coming within days of the Aurora shooting’s third anniversary, the guilty verdict ends one phase of a grueling legal saga, but another one is set to begin. As the district attorney in suburban Arapahoe County argues for the death penalty, the jury will begin weighing the toll and nature of Mr. Holmes’s actions to decide whether to send him to prison for life or to Colorado’s death row. The sentencing phase is expected to take weeks. It could feature more wrenching statements from survivors and families of the victims, as well as testimony from defense witnesses discussing the role that mental illness played in propelling Mr. Holmes toward the movie theater that night.

Question: How long had it been since the record was broken before Clayton?

LOS ANGELES —  Clayton Kershaw went to the mound on Sunday needing to strike out six batters to reach 300 for the season, something no major league pitcher had done in 13 years. With the first round of the postseason against the Mets looming, he wasn’t going to stick around very long. Maybe a couple of innings or so, just enough to stay sharp, even if he didn’t remain long enough to get to 300. And yet he did get there, striking out seven San Diego Padres in just three and two-thirds innings, and getting two standing ovations from Dodgers fans along the way. In the end, he finished the 2015 regular season with a 16-7 record, a 2.13 E.R.A., a WHIP of 0.88 and a strikeout total of 301, a nice exclamation point for a pitcher who has already won three Cy Young Awards and a Most Valuable Player trophy.

And yet he did get there, striking out seven San Diego Padres in just three and two-thirds innings, and getting two standing ovations from Dodgers fans along the way. In the end, he finished the 2015 regular season with a 16-7 record, a 2.13 E.R.A., a WHIP of 0.88 and a strikeout total of 301, a nice exclamation point for a pitcher who has already won three Cy Young Awards and a Most Valuable Player trophy.

LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw went to the mound on Sunday needing to strike out six batters to reach 300 for the season, something no major league pitcher had done in <hl> 13 years <hl> .


Question: What was the name of the American trainer

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: What group has claimed responsibility for the recent attacks in the capital?

MOGADISHU, Somalia —  Somali troops ended a 16-hour siege at a hotel in Somalia’s capital on Saturday, during which gunmen killed 15 people, officials said. The Shabab, a militant Islamist group that routinely strikes government and business sites here in the capital, claimed responsibility for the attack, which also left at least 13 people wounded, Somali officials said. An elite American-trained counterterrorism unit rescued 50 hostages being held by the gunmen at the Maka al-Mukarama Hotel, said Mohamed Abdi Hayir, the minister of information, tourism and culture. The five attackers killed 15 people, Mr. Hayir said: Somalia’s ambassador to Switzerland, a consultant for the Somali Central Bank, six civilians, three hotel guards and four government soldiers. All the gunmen were killed, Mr. Hayir added. The attack began on Friday afternoon around 4 p.m., witnesses said, when a car bomber detonated explosives at a rear gate of the hotel, which is popular with government officials and foreigners. Gunmen quickly overpowered security guards and took control of the hotel before an elite police antiterrorism unit stormed the hotel compound.

Question: Where did Maria and Randy arrive to?

A legal fight over the struggle for ownership of an artwork is hardly the stuff of high drama. And the screenplay can’t find a way to make that conflict, or the ethical and moral issues involved, compelling beyond the obvious guessing game of who will win. Maria’s ambivalence about continuing to pursue what sometimes seems to be a hopeless quest is the dramatic core of the film. Once she and Randy arrive in Vienna, the paperwork concerning the painting’s history is withheld from them. Only with the help of a local journalist (Daniel Brühl) can they penetrate the wall of secrecy and evasion and learn that the painting, commissioned by Adele’s husband, and later acquired by the Belvedere’s duplicitous curator, belonged not to Adele, but to her husband, who willed it to his heirs.

Question: Where did Dr. Shatz choose to move?

Nobody knows how many people read the December 1964 issue of the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, but apparently only one, Dr. Irwin Schatz, was so appalled by one of its articles, about a syphilis experiment using uneducated black men in Tuskegee, Ala., that he wrote the study’s author to protest. “I couldn’t believe what I had read,” Dr. Schatz, who died on April 1, wrote in an email in 2013 to Civil Beat, an online newsletter in Hawaii, where he had moved to teach. “But the message was unmistakable.”

Question: What sport has players who are finally being paid as professional athletes?

Women’s hockey is a growing sport, evolving through quicker and stronger players who are finally being rewarded for their talents as paid professional athletes. But concussions have kept some of the best players away from the ice for extended periods as the sport struggles to combat an issue that football and men’s hockey have failed at times to properly address. The N.H.L. is facing litigation, with former players accusing the league of glorifying violence and ignoring the dangers of repeated head injuries. “The amount of players still getting concussions on the national level and college level, it’s too many,” said Pucci, whose sister’s hockey career was also ended by a concussion.

Question: When did Zaro's first come to this neighborhood?

Though Zaro’s is also a chain and not a mom-and-pop operation, it has survived in a changing part of the Bronx — a place where stromboli and red velvet cupcakes coexist with challah and hamantaschen, even as the neighborhood has transformed from heavily Jewish to one predominately of black and Hispanic residents. “The Bronx has been our home since 1927 — a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away,” Mr. Zaro said. “The Bronx has been good to us, and we love the Bronx,” he added. “I was always proud to tell people that we still had a branch in Parkchester.”

Question: What Medicare proposals were amended or dropped by the government?

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. Bob Gregory, a professor of economics at Australian National University, said Mr. Turnbull’s task would be largely one of communication. “What Mr. Turnbull has to do is straightforward,” Mr. Gregory said. “He’s got to explain things. You’ve no idea how powerful that is.”

Question: What girls are missing?

This lack of reaction was symptomatic of why the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan was swept aside last month — the first time an incumbent president has been successfully voted out of office in the history of our nation. For too long they ruled, not governed, and in doing so had become so focused on their own self-interest and embroiled in corruption that the duty to react to the anguish suffered by their citizens had become alien to them. My administration, which will take office on May 29, will act differently — indeed it is the very reason we have been elected. This must begin with honesty as to whether the Chibok girls can be rescued. Currently their whereabouts remain unknown. We do not know the state of their health or welfare, or whether they are even still together or alive. As much as I wish to, I cannot promise that we can find them: to do so would be to offer unfounded hope, only to compound the grief if, later, we find we cannot match such expectation. But I say to every parent, family member and friend of the children that my government will do everything in its power to bring them home.

Question: How did the officers approach Mr. Hammond?

To Zachary Hammond’s supporters, the shooting death of the 19-year-old man was yet another example of questionable police behavior that has shaken communities around the country. In their view, the police in Seneca, S.C., falsely claimed Mr. Hammond was shot last month as he tried to drive his car over the officer who fired on him, when his wounds show he was actually shot from the side and back. They also say the deadly confrontation, in which officers approached with their guns drawn and screaming profanities, evolved from an absurd sting effort to trap his date into selling a tiny amount of marijuana, a drug now decriminalized in much of the country.

Question: In which parking lot has been driven Christopher?

Christopher also went to the hospital with Daniel and Joseph Irwin and David Morey, but did not go inside. He later was driven to a Home Depot parking lot near the hospital, he said, where he tried to rest but instead vomited. Finally, he was returned to the church, where Daniel Irwin made up a “mattress and a blanket and pillow for me” and “brought me some food and water.” That evening, he spoke to the police on the phone and left the church. Tom O’Brien, the lawyer for Ms. Ferguson, had little comment on the charges but said he expected evidence for the defense to come out at trial. Scott D. McNamara, the Oneida County district attorney, said he would not comment on the facts of the case but suggested that Tiffanie Irwin could face charges when the case went before a grand jury, which is likely to happen before the end of November. “We are looking at everybody who was involved in this incident,” Mr. McNamara said, adding that he could pursue charges like depraved indifference to murder or gang assault. Mr. McNamara said he was impressed by Christopher’s bravery in facing his half sister, who is one of his alleged assailants. “We asked a lot of a very young man,” he said, adding, “I can’t imagine the stress he was under.”

Question: What is ms. pierpont able to convey within her paragraphs?

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: Who testified that Mr. Hincapie was with them at the moment the robbery happened?

But Mr. Hincapie now maintains he gave a false confession after a detective beat him. He testified in February he was walking down an escalator to the platform when the murder occurred. He was looking for a friend and had tarried at the turnstiles to flirt with some girls, he said. His story was buttressed by the testimony of Luis Montero, who testified he recalled Mr. Hincapie’s being with him at the turnstiles just before the commotion erupted on the platform below. The police arrested Mr. Montero on suspicion of taking part in the mugging as well, but later dropped charges against him. He never confessed. Another man convicted in the attack, Anthony Anderson, took the stand and testified he did not remember Mr. Hincapie’s being on the platform when another teenager, Yul Gary Morales, stabbed Mr. Watkins in the chest. Ms. Santana, a 45-year-old hospital worker, also corroborated Mr. Hincapie’s claim. Having read about the hearing, she voluntarily came forward this year and swore on the stand she had seen the murder but had not seen Mr. Hincapie among the men attacking the Watkins family.

Question: Where was the briefing for boosters and news media held?

But when the teacher looked at it, much of the assignment had not been completed.

Question: What id Garcia write?

“I am perfectly happy with what I have here, and every item has a meaning for me,” said Dr. García, who wrote an essay about editing his life in preparation for his move. Even the location on a busy cross street is an advantage. His twice-weekly trip to Columbia involves the crosstown bus and the subway. On the return trip, the bus delivers him to his doorstep. He runs either in Central Park — it’s more distant than he had hoped — or along the East River. Though he is not keen on the subway construction a few doors down, he knows it is temporary.

Question: What are the countries called now that used to be Yugoslavia?

Tensions have risen over the migrant crisis among the Balkan countries that once made up Yugoslavia. Slovenia has accused Croatia of dumping thousands of desperate people at random locations on the border and leaving them to find their own way across, while Croatia has complained that the European Union has failed to come up with a common strategy to cope with the crisis. European Union leaders met in Malta on Wednesday for their sixth meeting of the year on the issue. Slovenia’s decision to build the fence drew sharp criticism from humanitarian organizations and human rights activists. Last week, an open letter accused the government of failing the migrants by leaving them out in the open, hungry and cold, while the authorities registered them and processed them. Countries elsewhere in Europe have also been raising barriers against the continued flow of asylum seekers. Sweden imposed temporary border controls on Wednesday and called on the European Union to share the burden of dealing with the crisis more widely, Reuters reported.

Question: Along with the police, who escorted the Yankees to exit the terminal?

On Sept. 25 the lead was gone, after the Red Sox beat the Yankees, 4-1, at Fenway Park behind Ted Williams’s 43rd home run and a four-hitter by Mel Parnell. Still hopeful Yankees fans thronged Grand Central Terminal to greet the team as it arrived that night from Boston on Track 17. “So aggressive were the fans in their efforts to reach the ball players,” The New York Times wrote, “that the police and station guards had to escort several of the team to side exits to avoid accidental injury to the already crippled squad.” The optimistic fans had their hopes dashed the next night at Yankee Stadium. The Sox took over first place with a 7-6 win, Johnny Pesky scoring on a squeeze by Bobby Doerr.

Question: What does AMC want to match the quality of?

AMC, however, is more reluctant to switch game plans. “With all the changes of the world today — whether it’s technology, volume of programming, fewer and fewer shows breaking through — what we remain focused on are many of the things that got us to the dance in the first place,” Mr. Collier said. That strategy, he said, is matching the quality of premium cable on basic cable, and becoming a home for the industry’s best writers and showrunners. AMC had a small setback in the last few years when it was forced to adjust a development process that was described by some in the industry as onerous. The system, dismissively referred to as the “bake-off,” required producers to sketch out in extensive detail what their prospective show would look like after the pilot — forecasting what would happen several seasons down the line. Even then, AMC was not guaranteed to put the show on the air.

Question: Which SNL veteran wrote jokes on sticky notes to be passed along to Mr. Feig?

In Budapest last June, Kent Sublette, a veteran of “Saturday Night Live,” and Katie Dippold, the screenwriter for “The Heat” and now co-writer of the new “Ghostbusters,” watched the action and scribbled jokes on sticky notes, which were handed to Mr. Feig, who also shouted extra one-liners to his cast. In the editing room, these “alts,” as they’re known, are assembled into multiple cuts, which Mr. Feig test-screens religiously. In Hollywood, test screening is done grudgingly, considered a pernicious studio tool and the enemy of the auteur. “It doesn’t work very well if a movie is supposed to make you feel difficult emotions,” Mr. Apatow said. “If you’re making a David Lynch movie, it doesn’t work at all.” But for comedy, he continued, it’s often the best way to refine jokes. Their semi-scientific process involves recording viewers’ laughter across different versions. Mr. Feig, a former stand-up comic, compared it with road-testing an act. “Spy” has had about 10 test screenings, he said, although unlike “Bridesmaids,” it scored well with audiences out of the gate. In a South by Southwest preview, one critic called it “a home run.”

Question: How large will the next gallery building be?

PACE GALLERY DREAMS BIG The Pace Gallery, which turns 55 this year, making it one of the country’s oldest contemporary art galleries, has never been in the real-estate business. As Marc Glimcher, Pace’s president, has said, “We are serial renters.” But it doesn’t seem to be keeping the gallery from shaping its fortunes in Chelsea, where it has three locations. Over the next two years, along with the landlord of its flagship location at 534 West 25th Street, the gallery will oversee the construction of an eight-story building, at 540 West 25th Street, that will give it 30,000 more square feet for shows, for staff now working at offices on East 57th Street and for visible storage of art in transit through the gallery, an idea that has been growing in the museum world but that will be a novelty in a commercial gallery. The space will let Pace put its 10,000-volume art-scholars’ library front and center and also house the operations of Pace Editions and Pace/MacGill. “We don’t know exactly what it’s going to be, but it’s not going to be the same ritual of show after show and fighting other galleries for the hot artists,” Mr. Glimcher said. “We have a chance here to redefine what it is to be a gallery and to be Pace.”

Question: What does mainly pay  the 2012 version of presidential super PACs?

Ever since the Supreme Court permitted political committees to raise unlimited sums for independent spending, the super PAC has occupied a growing place in the political ecosystem. The 2012 version of presidential super PACs mainly paid for ads. Restore Our Future, the PAC supporting Mr. Romney, spent 97.6 percent of its $142 million in independent expenditures — messages advocating Mr. Romney’s election or the defeat of his opponents — on broadcast ads and mail. Priorities USA Action, which backed Mr. Obama, spent almost exclusively on TV, radio and online advertising, according to Federal Election Commission records. Together with the national parties, both sides managed to raise and spend nearly $2 billion. Some donors balked at giving large amounts of money for negative television ads, so a Democratic super PAC was created to help conduct opposition research.
