Question: What is a common approach to help law school graduates gain experience?

Though not eligible for the program, Jared Brenner, 25, a recent Brooklyn Law School graduate with a job offer from a large firm to do transactional work for start-up companies, believed it would encourage students to take risks after leaving school. Brooklyn Law School graduates could pursue their passion, he said, knowing that the school would provide some financial relief if that pursuit proved fruitless. Mr. Leipold, of the law placement association, said Brooklyn Law School’s program struck him as unusual, though he noted that other law schools were trying different ways to help students navigate a challenging job market. “It’s a time of experimentation and risk-taking for law schools,” he said. A more common approach, he said, was for schools to finance fellowships for students, often at nonprofits, to help them gain experience until they can find full-time jobs. Such programs can, however, be expensive for the schools, he added. For Brian Hoffman, 25, who, like Ms. Friedman, has started a two-year program at Brooklyn Law School, the tuition-reimbursement program provides some reassurance. “It’s something that I hope I don’t have to bank on,” he said, “but it’s nice to have.”

Question: What was the rate that consumer prices fell in December?

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: What government does Emmanuel Nahshon represent?

The Israeli government, which has become increasingly concerned by the Boycott, Divest and Sanction movement, reacted swiftly, describing the church’s positions on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as distorted and historically biased against Israel. “The U.C.C. resolutions on the Middle East conflict have reflected the most radical politics for more than a decade, and in no way reflect a moral stance or reality-based position,” said Emmanuel Nahshon, spokesman for the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. “People of faith ought to be acting to help Israel and the Palestinians to renew efforts to achieve peace, rather than endlessly demonizing one party in the conflict — in our view, the aggrieved party.” StandWithUs, a pro-Israeli advocacy group based in Los Angeles, condemned what it called “anti-Israel extremists within the U.C.C.” for promoting both resolutions debated on Tuesday. “In doing so, they severely damaged the U.C.C.’s relationship with the vast majority of the Jewish community, promoted hatred and discrimination against Israelis, and undermined efforts to achieve a just peace between Israelis and Palestinians,” the group said in a statement on its website.

Question: Who was Mr Aponte warned not to say anything to?

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: What team is the NHL point leader?

Washington Capitals at Montreal Canadiens, Thursday, 7:30 p.m. Entering Tuesday’s games, Montreal led the N.H.L. with 39 points, but faced a second long stretch without goaltender Carey Price, who will miss at least six weeks with a lower-body injury (more on that later). With a five-game winning streak, Washington (17-5-1) has caught up to the Rangers in the Metropolitan Division. Goalie Braden Holtby has won his last seven starts and leads the N.H.L. with a 1.95 goals-against average. Buffalo Sabres at Edmonton Oilers, Sunday, 8 p.m.

Question: Periodically, the movie starts to sound like what other genre?

“Songs From the Second Floor” (released here in 2002) remains Mr. Andersson’s comic masterpiece. It’s a pure and bizarre piece of millennial art, set amid perpetual traffic jams at some apocalyptic turning point. It loosely tracks a businessman who has burned down his own shop, but it also looks in on his insane son and others. The end of days looms — Mr. Andersson makes jokes about get-rich-quick crucifix salesmen — and over-the-top doomsday sights appear, like self-flagellating crowds, the dead rising and even a sacrificial rite. The “hyperreality,” as Mr. Andersson called it, makes for a forceful visual effect that is unforgettable. The same can be said of “You, the Living,” where the overarching conceit involves dreams being recounted for the camera and then dramatized. The filmmaker’s signature style is in effect, but occasional songs are added as in a musical. “Pigeon” takes another step away from reality with bewildering jumps between periods in Swedish history: One episode has the country’s 18th-century king riding into a modern bar to find a toilet.

Question: How many Americans have been killed by spice?

Although the use of spice has decreased in recent years, according to some surveys, the drug continues to be sold by street dealers, as well as openly on the Internet and at smoke shops and other retailers, as potpourri or incense with brand names like Scooby Snax and Black Diamond. Spice’s health effects have been underscored in recent months by a surge in emergency room visits and calls to poison centers, for symptoms that can include extreme anxiety, violent behavior and delusions. Intermittent reports from several states suggest that at least 1,000 Americans have died since 2009 after smoking spice. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention does not track national data for spice or other synthetic drugs, including those popularly known as bath salts or flakka.

Question: What was the required position of the fireplace?

The couple told their architect that they wanted a home that would blend in with its setting yet also incorporate key elements of modern design, such as underfloor heating throughout. “It also needed to have six bedrooms and a central Poggenpohl kitchen,” Mr. Hague said. “I wanted to be able to walk straight into the house at the first-floor level and not to be greeted by the sight of a staircase.

Question: Who wrote "Three Voices"?

Nate Wooley’s new work “For Kenneth Gaburo” is a setting of a sentence by Mr. Gaburo (1926-93), a searching composer, conductor, pianist and language theorist. But its presentation of the words is extreme, to say the least. Abstractions of text in music aren’t new. Listening to the premiere of “For Kenneth Gaburo” on Monday evening at the Wild Project in the East Village, I thought of Morton Feldman’s glacial “Three Voices” (1982), in which long passages repeat and deconstruct, to the point of wordlessness, the opening of Frank O’Hara’s poem “wind”: “Who’d have thought/that snow falls.”

Question: what group was Mr. Menedez no longer a part of?

“Many of the motions raise important and novel legal questions that often require review by trial and appellate courts,” Mr. Lowell said. “The government, we, and even the court in this case acknowledged that additional review would occur here no matter how the motions were decided.” A Justice Department spokesman declined to comment on Monday’s decision.

Question: Several impressionist pieces are located in which museum?

SETTING: This house is on a narrow, wooded road in New Hope, a borough in Bucks County about 40 miles from Philadelphia and 70 miles from New York City.

Question: What complication in babies can be caused by herpes?

Rabbi David Niederman, an influential Orthodox leader in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, sat outside a meeting of the New York City Board of Health on Wednesday, staring at a brochure and frowning. The pamphlet, created by the de Blasio administration, is a glossy but blunt warning about the dangers of metzitzah b’peh, an Orthodox circumcision ritual linked to herpes infections in infants. “Some babies can get sick with herpes, which can lead to death,” the form reads in bold type. “There is no way to avoid the risk.” “Serious misstatements,” Rabbi Niederman said, looking pained, as he read the brochure for the first time. But the rabbi declined to elaborate, telling a reporter that, for now, he wanted only to praise the city for trying to work with Orthodox leaders on the matter.

Question: Who is the director of Arizona's department of Water resources?

If the connection between groundwater and surface water is considered, that time frame for running out of water altogether will almost certainly be even shorter. Arizona’s top water official told ProPublica that it was both politically difficult and costly to properly account for the interconnection. But deep in a 685-page document that is part of Arizona’s water plan, the state lists 42 groundwater basins that it says are connected to surface water, indicating a potential conflict over rights to those supplies. It’s unclear how much water flows from one into the other, but the documents show that many of the water sources are heavily relied on as sources of both groundwater and surface supplies at the same time. Thomas Buschatzke, the director of Arizona’s Department of Water Resources, acknowledged that pumping from wells could dry up streams, but said the current law kept the two resources separate, and “it would be a huge upset to the economy to do away with that.”

PICK: COLTS Panthers (3-0) at Buccaneers (1-2) 1 p.m. Line: Panthers by 3 The Panthers are undefeated despite playing most of the time without Luke Kuechly or Kelvin Benjamin. The team has rarely been associated with such perseverance, but Cam Newton has the Panthers just four wins short of the team’s division-leading total from last season.

Question: The 2014 French documentary on at 8:30 P.M. examines what war?

8:05 P.M. (Starz Cinema) THE DREAMERS (2004) Louis Garrel (top), Eva Green (center) and Michael Pitt (above) portray the points of a photogenic triangle in this drama from Bernardo Bertolucci (“Last Tango in Paris”) about an American who befriends French twins in Paris during the 1968 student riots. This adaptation of Gilbert Adair’s novel “The Holy Innocents” is “disarmingly sweet and completely enchanting,” A. O. Scott wrote in The New York Times. “The sex in this movie is, as measured by the display of body parts and the amount of time the actors spend out of their clothes, more explicit than even the most notorious scenes in ‘Last Tango,’ ” he said. “But it is hard to imagine a voyeur more benevolent than Mr. Bertolucci, whose eager scrutiny of the eros of the young is, like Jeremy Irons’s in ‘Stealing Beauty,’ less a matter of prurience than of an honest, nostalgic appreciation of natural human vitality.” 8:30 P.M. (TV5Monde) ELLES ÉTAIENT EN GUERRE (1914-18) Nathalie Baye narrates this 2014 French documentary, which examines World War I from the perspective of Marie Curie, Edith Wharton, Mata Hari, Rosa Luxemburg and Louise Bodin.

Question: How far away from the Canadian border was Mr. Sweat when he was caught by the police?

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 was Mr. Watkins from?

The judge’s ruling came after lengthy hearings, starting in February, during which Mr. Hincapie testified that a detective had beaten a confession out of him and a previously unknown witness, Mariluz Santana, came forward to swear she had not seen Mr. Hincapie on the subway platform when the murder happened. Mr. Watkins, a tourist from Utah visiting New York for the United States Open, was stabbed in the chest on Sept. 3, 1990, in a struggle with at least six young men who had tried to rob his family inside the Seventh Avenue subway station at 53rd Street. Some of the men later said they needed money to go dancing at the Roseland Ballroom. Mr. Hincapie, now 43, was arrested the next day and confessed to taking part. He was one of seven young men convicted of felony murder at two separate trials. Under state law, everyone who takes part in a mugging can be held responsible for murder if a victim dies.

Question: Independent studies found what strikes had more of what than officials admitted?

A front-page news analysis by Scott Shane, for example, included this memorable paragraph, not in a quote but in the author’s own voice: “Every independent investigation of the strikes has found far more civilian casualties than administration officials admit. Gradually, it has become clear that when operators in Nevada fire missiles into remote tribal territories on the other side of the world, they often do not know who they are killing, but are making an imperfect best guess.” (Mr. Shane’s knowledge comes in part from his book, due for September publication, on the 2011 drone strike that killed Anwar al-Awlaki, the American-born imam.)

Question: How much is the Decide Now app?

Sometimes, of course, you want an app to make the decision for you without any of your input. That’s where Decide Now, $1 on iOS, is great. Think of it like a wheel of fortune. You spin the on-screen wheel that’s labeled with different options and go with the one that’s selected by the marker when the wheel finally stops spinning. The app has many wheel options preloaded — like your options for a night on the town — or you can enter them. Decision Maker by Jonathan Chow is a similar, free Android app, although it’s not as attractive. But remember: The app doesn’t have to live with the consequences of your decision.  Quick Call

Question: How long did Tiant live in Boston?

“I told him Boston is a good place to play,” Tiant said. “I lived there for 43 years. I live in Maine now, but I lived in Boston for years, and for me, it is my second country. People were great to me, and they are still great to me. They show me respect, admiration and love. They don’t have that anywhere else I’ve been, just in Boston.” Tiant was a larger-than-life figure in Boston: a portly, cigar-smoking character whose starts were big events. He was also known as an exceptional clutch performer. In the memorable 1975 World Series, Tiant won two games against the Cincinnati Reds, including a shutout in Game 1. He also won the final regularly scheduled game of the 1978 season with a two-hit shutout against the Blue Jays that forced the famous one-game playoff with the Yankees. But Tiant’s status as Boston sports royalty was solidified as far back as 1972, when he went 15-6 with a 1.91 E.R.A., the best in baseball that season. Tiant was unable to return to Cuba for 46 years. After leaving Cuba, he did not see his father for 14 years until Luis Tiant Sr. was allowed to come to Boston to watch the 1975 World Series. “It’s sad,” Tiant said. “It was 46 years before I go back to my country, and a lot of my friends and people I played with and went to school with, they died. It’s not a comfortable situation. I didn’t see my father for 14 years. I thought I would never see him again.” Moncada grew teary-eyed when he spoke of his own family. He said that until he left Cuba nine months ago, he had not gone more than a week without seeing his family. But the future might not be as difficult for him as the past was for Tiant. The governments of Cuba and the United States have initiated a process that could lead to a normalization of relations. If that is achieved, it may not be as difficult for the current group of Cuban players to travel home and then return to the United States to play.

Question: Who would try to explain to Sandy who Robyn was?

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

Question: What kind of reckoning has Tunisia had with it's own past?

As part of its remarkable journey toward democracy, Tunisia has embarked on a painful reckoning with its past. Since last year, its Truth and Dignity Commission, created by constitutional mandate in 2013, has been collecting harrowing accounts of torture suffered by thousands of Tunisians over nearly six decades, primarily under the regimes of the dictators Habib Bourguiba and Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali.

Question: What type of natural disaster does this LA City Council pertain to?

Thousands of older wood and concrete apartment buildings vulnerable to collapse in a major earthquake would get costly upgrades under rules passed Friday by the Los Angeles City Council. The mandate would affect as many as 13,500 so-called soft-first-story buildings, typically wood-frame structures. As many as 1,500 brittle concrete buildings would also require upgrades. City leaders will have to agree on how the estimated $5,000-per-unit retrofitting would be split between tenants and landlords. The law currently allows owners to increase rents up to $75 per month for a required earthquake retrofit, but both sides say such an increase is too steep. Apartment groups are looking for certain financial support, such as breaks on property and state income taxes.

Question: What causes the noise distracts Sally?

She remains undecided about whether her own series of pictures will continue when Jessie reaches puberty. “I swore two years ago that because she was beginning to look more like an adult woman, I was going to stop. But it would have been difficult, because she’s always naked out here.” She knows, too, that all three will soon close her out in developing their young-adult selves, and “that could be scary.” Daniel Shybunko has told her to expect a different opinion about the pictures as they “assert their own autonomy.” That one of them could pen a “Mommie Dearest” has also crossed her mind. A screaming fight breaks out down by the river over Virginia’s watch, and Mann, hoping the girls will sort it out themselves, tries to continue her train of thought. Her longstanding affection for the books of Nabokov has faced revision in light of her situation. “I just reread ‘Lolita,’ “ she says above the din. “I love him, of course. But I found it pretty difficult to read the second time because of what he did to that girl.”

Question: In what type of building is the museum located?

In the misguided popular lore, the display says, the woman was driving when the coffee spilled (she was not), she was not badly injured (she was, with third-degree burns that put her in the hospital for eight days and caused permanent scarring), she was out to fleece McDonald’s (the company rejected her initial request for just $20,000 to cover medical expenses) and she received millions (she received less than $500,000). The museum is in a former bank in this struggling town, dotted with abandoned factories but on the path of weekend visitors to more prosperous areas. Mr. Nader knows that a museum in Washington would have more influence but said he had a hard enough time raising close to $3 million for this location. When he first described his vision for the museum, in 1998, he had hoped to raise $5 million within a year or two.

Question: Who is the Senator of Kentucky?

WASHINGTON —  Emerging from an all-night session that was more exhausting than dramatic, Senate Republicans on Friday squeaked through a budget blueprint that would repeal the Affordable Care Act, fundamentally remake federal health care for the poor and elderly, and push the federal deficit toward zero over the next decade. The 52-to-46 vote came at 3:28 a.m. after the Senate considered hundreds of amendments and voted on dozens — many of them politically freighted, some of them contradictory, but none of them binding. No Democrats voted for the budget. Among Republicans, only Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, who is likely to seek the White House, and Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, who has announced his intention to do so, voted no. Senator Michael B. Enzi of Wyoming, the chairman of the Budget Committee, hailed a plan that he said would “protect the nation’s most vulnerable citizens, strengthen national defense and bring robust economic growth.”

Question: What did Marc-Andre Dalbavie study with Boulez?

MARC-ANDRÉ DALBAVIE, composer: I just studied conducting with Boulez, but it had an enormous influence on my writing. In the beginning it wasn’t clear, but progressively in the 1990s, I started to understand what he was teaching me. Around ’95 and ’96, I was writing my concerto for violin and I was living in Rome, so I had less contact with Pierre. The less contact I had, the more I realized his influence. If you know his piece “Mémoriale,” it revolves around this E-flat and you don’t know if it’s a tonality or a gravity center. This idea also became for me very strong. It was a sort of post-atonal moment.

Question: Who is Megan Konar?

Over the long term, Dr. Hanak believes, the state should not only encourage farmers to store water in the ground, but also consider creating a market to allow them to buy and sell their allotments. Megan Konar, an engineer at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, is among the experts eager to see California lead the world toward more sustainable methods. Recent research she did with a graduate student, Landon Marston, found that 18.5 percent of the American grain supply, an essential link in the food chain, is coming from parts of the country where the aquifers are being depleted. Other research suggests that overpumping of water is even more severe in parts of India and Africa, a long-term risk to the global food supply. As climate change forces farmers to grow crops in hotter conditions, water demand is only going to rise.

Question: What torture technique did one of the guards threaten to use on Patrick Alexander?

Night had fallen at the Clinton Correctional Facility in far northern New York when the prison guards came for Patrick Alexander. They handcuffed him and took him into a broom closet for questioning. Then, Mr. Alexander said in an interview last week, the beatings began. As the three guards, who wore no name badges, punched him and slammed his head against the wall, he said they shouted questions: “Where are they going? What did you hear? How much are they paying you to keep your mouth shut?” One of the guards put a plastic bag over his head, Mr. Alexander said, and threatened to waterboard him.

Question: How many oil paintings are there?

Inside the elevator bank model, a short video of Hofmann at work is worth watching. On audio, Mr. Silver presents his thinking on the mosaics. First, His studies for the mosaics led him away from easel painting and spurred larger, more ambitious works. This is visible in nine paintings (oil on paper on board) executed in preparation for a 50-foot-tall mural for a campanile in Chimbote, a port city in Peru, as part of a renewal project by the architect Josep Lluís Sert and the urban planner Paul Lester Wiener. Measuring as much as 8 by 4 feet, the studies depict tilting, implicitly Constructivist crosses in red, yellow and blue, so cheerful they seem almost blasphemous, and more open figurative-like improvisations that bring to mind David Smith’s welded sculptures.

Question: Why would bodycams be beneficial to police officers?

“We hit the pause button,” Chief Strachan said. “Our view is we don’t want to be part of violating people’s privacy for commercial or voyeuristic reasons. Everyone’s worst day is now going to be put on YouTube for eternity.” Since the death  of Michael Brown, an unarmed teenager who was fatally shot during an encounter with a police officer in Ferguson, Mo., in August, departments around the country have begun requiring officers to record their interactions with the public to hold them accountable for their behavior, as well as to protect them against false charges.

Question: Who worked on Love Never Dies?

Glenn Slater, the “School of Rock” lyricist, said he thought Mr. Lloyd Webber “had a little more self-doubt” as he decided between writing in the mode of 1960s classic rock or 1970s heavy metal.
