Question: What does OK Go zip around on in their video?

OK Go  (Saturday) These chipper pop-rockers have an innovative eye for music video concepts. In their new clip for the slippery nü-disco track “I Won’t Let You Down,” off their fourth record, “Hungry Ghosts,” they zip around on motorized scooter chairs, weaving among choreographed dancers, as the action is filmed above by a drone. The footage recently was shown as part of the New York City Drone Film Festival, an appropriate setting for such lofty and left-of-center minds. At 8 p.m., Terminal 5, 610 West 56th Street, Clinton, 800-745-3000, terminal5nyc.com. (Anderson)

Question: Against who was the antitrust case filed?

The antitrust case against Google filed by European Union regulators on Wednesday will inevitably draw comparisons to the long-running prosecution of Microsoft, in which regulators on both sides of the Atlantic pursued the software giant for anticompetitive behavior. But Margrethe Vestager, the European Union’s competition commissioner, may not find the comparison entirely flattering. With more than a decade of hindsight, the theories supporting the case against Microsoft have all but fallen apart, and the pursuit of the company that makes Windows may suggest a reason for skepticism about this fight against Google: The tech marketplace is fluid and unpredictable. The giants that look most unbeatable today could falter in ways that may once have seemed unthinkable — and without a lot of help from the government.

Question: What could the cuts laid out in the Conservative manifesto cause in the country?

As laid out in the Conservative manifesto, the cuts would be deep outside certain protected areas like the National Health Service, and might be about 30 billion pounds, or about $49 billion. Mr. Osborne is driven by a Thatcherite belief in the value of a smaller state to free up individual and corporate enterprise and encourage those able to work to do so, and such cuts could create political tensions, and even unrest, in the country. Mr. Osborne is respected, but his economic theology is not shared by every Tory, which could also lead to defections and close votes. Mr. Cameron has never been very popular with some of his backbenchers. They are sure to be shocked and overjoyed at the victory he brought them, as they feared Labour would manage, with the Scots, to create a majority to throw the Tories out of power. Even the most optimistic Conservatives were talking about winning 300 seats, which pollsters thought was hallucinatory.

Question: The cost of what is being questioned?

The potential cost was enough to raise questions from Assemblywoman Deborah J. Glick, the chairwoman of the Higher Education Committee, whose district includes Greenwich Village. “I don’t think it’s atypical at any university that there are changes to the president’s residence,” Ms. Glick, a Democrat, said. “The question is, how much did it cost and was that unseemly? Certainly to the average person, and perhaps to the people who are paying their kids’ tuition, which is already pretty eye-popping, that would seem like a high figure.”

Question: What is the name of the character who does not say anything at the house?

One of the strengths of the pacing is that for the first half of the book, the allies and villains are not completely distinguishable. The wasp queen calms Steve in a genuine way. Somebody else, whom the family calls Mr. Nobody, keeps calling the house and not saying anything. Despite my hunches, I found myself deliciously unsure whom to side with for a number of pages. In large part, this is due to the allure of Oppel’s imagery, which is striking and scary at once: A dissected wasp with nothing inside it. A knife grinder who drives slowly around the streets but has no customers. A toy phone answered with glee by Steve’s little sister. Occasional illustrations by the wonderful Jon Klassen, dark and secretive, only add to the mood.

Question: When did Geoffrey Holder die?

Geoffrey Holder was, for starters, a dancer. He was also a choreographer, an actor, a painter — the list goes on. With a towering height (6-foot-6) and personality to match, he made his presence known all over New York for over 50 years. He died last fall, but Mr. Holder’s legacy is alive and well as Lincoln Center Out of Doors pays tribute with free events on Saturday to commemorate what would have been his 85th birthday. A screening of the 2009 documentary “Carmen & Geoffrey,” about Mr. Holder’s prolific career and his relationship with his wife, the dancer Carmen de Lavallade, will be preceded by a discussion with the filmmakers (and husband and wife) Nick Doob and Linda Atkinson.

Question: What's the name of one of Emily Post Institute's spokeswoman?

“The problem with Instagram and Facebook is that they’re being used by career-minded people outside the original targeted audience — the college crowd — Ms. Sternheimer said. “Everyone is using it now, so smartphones are essentially monitoring our behavior,” she said. “People may be behaving better for fear of being captured doing something inappropriate without their consent.” Ms. Sternheimer added that people are more careful about what they let others see, especially because they know that other employment opportunities can be hindered if they portray themselves negatively in either a work or social setting. If the web is monitoring, it’s also educating us in good performance. “We get a lot of ideas from media,” said Anna Post, a co-author of “Emily Post’s Etiquette” and a spokeswoman for the Emily Post Institute in Burlington, Vt. “The generation before the Internet watched movies and learned how to behave from them,” she said, pointing to the John Hughes cult film “Sixteen Candles” as one example. “People acted a little drunk and goofy.”

Question: What month did Moussa Mohammad receive his refugee status in Germany ?

Europe is once again wary of Germany. This time, it is not an aggressive Germany that wants to expand its borders but an aggressively generous one that is opening its borders, recent controls notwithstanding. Two questions are frequently raised: Is Europe’s richest and most populous country still trying to ease its conscience 70 years after the war? And does its new “Willkommenskultur” have a mercantilist edge given a shrinking and aging population? One German broadsheet, The Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, recently suggested that when Germany thinks about refugees, it really thinks about itself. Such talk does not bother Moussa Mohammad, a cardiologist and father of four from Dara’a, Syria, who received refugee status in Germany in February. “If Germany needs us, good,” he said. “Because we need Germany.”

Question: What do some parents fear?

JACKSON, Miss. —  The Mississippi state epidemiologist, Dr. Thomas E. Dobbs III, stood in a crowded room at the State Capitol this week and waited for a legislative verdict on the law that fostered what he regards as a public health triumph in a place that has few of them: the country’s highest immunization rate among kindergarten students. But in recent weeks, the nearly unbending nature of Mississippi’s law requiring students to be vaccinated has been in jeopardy, with two dozen lawmakers publicly supporting an exemption for “conscientious beliefs.” The debate, coming as other states grappled with a measles outbreak, turned Mississippi into one more battleground between medical experts who champion vaccinations and parents who fear the government’s role in medical decision-making.

Question: What place has only produced very few basketball players to play in the USA?

It was during his time in Spain that Porzingis developed the mechanics of his game and caught the attention of N.B.A. executives and scouts, many of whom flocked to watch him on the European circuit and came away impressed by his shooting and mobility. Although Latvia has produced only a few basketball players who have played in the United States, the sport has had a following there since 1935, when the national team won the first-ever Eurobasket European championship. When Porzingis was drafted by the Knicks, he instantly became the country’s best-known athlete and a hero.

Question: What did they prescribe her after she left the hospital?

After three days in the hospital, Natalie got better. A new chest X-ray showed that there was much less fluid in her chest. Her fever resolved.

Natalie went back to school, and the next day was interviewed by a TV reporter because she was one of the few who survived her kind of pneumonia in Nebraska. She talked about her disappointment over missing swim meets.

Question: Who is behaving unethically according to Kenji Yoshino?

Not only is this young man entitled to conceal the truth from his father, but he doesn’t owe him a repayment later when he can afford it. Threatening not to do your duty if your son turns out to be gay — which is, after all, something over which he has absolutely no control — is awful in many ways. The fact that he would fail to discharge his obligation to pay his fair share if the son told the truth is a reason not to tell him the truth. Kenji Yoshino: Yes, I agree with both of you. The father is behaving unethically, given that his support is accompanied by the demand that the letter writer change something that is not susceptible to change. So the question is how to conduct yourself ethically when a person with power over you is not doing so.

Question: where did Mr. Constantine work after the radiator factory?

Mr. Constantine once told a State University interviewer that after working in a radiator factory in Buffalo, he joined the Erie County sheriff’s office because “law enforcement was a chance for people of my generation, usually people of ethnic groups — Irish, Italian, Polish — who grew up in city neighborhoods and who had not gone to college, to get into an occupation with a challenging environment that had a great deal of flexibility and autonomy.” “We were looking for excitement and adventure,” he said.

Question: Who is Trebor Banstetter?

WASHINGTON —  Last week, with little notice, a federal judge here tossed out Delta Air Lines’ longstanding claim that the government’s export credit agency — which, among other things, provides loan guarantees to overseas airlines for the purchase of Boeing jets — was helping international competitors at the airline’s expense. Delta offered only a shrug. Judicial opinions aside, the continued existence of the Export-Import Bank turns more on bare-knuckle politics than on legal niceties. “We pursued all our options in court, but we’ve known all along this is going to be won or lost in Congress,” said Trebor Banstetter, a Delta spokesman in Atlanta.

Question: How much did the FBI originally offer in reward for information about Mr. Levinson?

The United States announced Monday that it had increased to $5 million its reward for information that could lead to the safe return of Robert A. Levinson, a former F.B.I. agent who disappeared in Iran in 2007. The move comes as the Obama administration appears to be closing in on an agreement with Iran under which Tehran would accept limits on its nuclear program in return for the lifting of economic sanctions. The fate of Americans who have been detained by Iran — or in Mr. Levinson’s case who have disappeared there — is not formally part of the talks. Monday was the eighth anniversary of Mr. Levinson’s disappearance, which occurred during a visit he made to Kish Island, Iran. His family received photographs and a video in late 2010 and early 2011. The F.B.I. offered a $1 million reward in 2012 for information about Mr. Levinson and increased it by $4 million on Monday. Iran has denied that it knows his whereabouts.

Question: What percentage of meetings are held in a closed-door executive session?

The report also exposed disturbing practices by board members. The board conducts 60 to 70 percent of its meetings in closed-door executive session. It does not tolerate, and is overtly hostile to, the complaints of public school parents, students and community members. Public protests against the board are now commonplace. The report proposed the appointment of a state fiscal monitor, who would oversee all of the board’s financial and educational decisions and have the authority to override the board, when necessary, to protect the interests of the public-school community and improve education outcomes for public-school students. The report also recommended additional state funding to restore essential staff and services, but only if a monitor was in place to make certain the money was used effectively and efficiently to benefit all of the students. A bill in Albany — introduced in the Assembly by Ellen C. Jaffee and Kenneth P. Zebrowski and in the Senate by David Carlucci, who all represent parts of the school district — would implement a fiscal monitor for at least five years. It is a crucial step toward reversing the district’s disastrous decline and repairing the deep rifts in the community. The New York State School Boards Association has found that the measure “respects the democratic electoral process by leaving the elected board of education in place.” The bill would not go as far as the Legislature went in 2002, when the school district in Roosevelt, on Long Island, was put under state control because of poor management. It is similar to what occurred in Lakewood, N.J., a district with circumstances similar to East Ramapo’s. In recent weeks, in response to a lobbying campaign by the school board, momentum for the bill appears to have slowed. Advocates for the local school board and some leaders in the Orthodox community have accused supporters of state oversight of having anti-Semitic motives.

Question: What famous tea brand, under the Unilever umbrella, now features certified sustainable tea leaves?

Unilever’s sustainability measures can have ripple effects. The Rainforest Alliance, which has been certifying farmers in the developing world for decades, now certifies the chocolate for Magnum ice cream bars, the vanilla in Breyers ice cream, and the leaves in Lipton tea bags. After Unilever began using certified tea, other big tea producers including Twinings and Tata followed suit. “It’s more effective than anything else going on out there,” said Ana Paula Taveres, interim president of the Rainforest Alliance. “In a capitalist world, Unilever is using the global market to drive sustainability.”

Question: What is Alfred Kaszniak's profession?

In an experiment led by the Stanford psychologist Alia Crum, when people had only 10 minutes to prepare a charismatic speech, simply reframing the stress response as healthy was enough to relax them and reduce their physiological responses, if they tended to be highly reactive. In a nationally representative eight-year study, adults who reported a lot of stress in their lives were more likely to die, but only if they thought stress was harmful. Over a hundred thousand Americans may have died prematurely, “not from stress, but from the belief that stress is bad for you, ” as the health psychologist Kelly McGonigal notes. O.K., so meditation is just one of many ways to fight stress. But there’s another major benefit of meditating: It makes you mindful. After meditating, people are more likely to focus their attention in the present. But as the neuroscientist Richard Davidson and the psychologist Alfred Kaszniak recently lamented, “There are still very few methodologically rigorous studies that demonstrate the efficacy of mindfulness-based interventions in either the treatment of specific diseases or in the promotion of well-being.”

Question: Which had a larger decrease in value, United States crude or Brent crude?

“The Fed has been one of the main supports of the stock market and the economy,” said Kate Warne, an investment strategist at Edward Jones. “It’s not a surprise that as it starts to move away from its extraordinary support that investors feel a bit nervous about what happens next.” Declines on Wednesday were led by energy stocks, which fell as the price of oil slumped for a third straight day. Oil dropped on concerns that global supplies are still outpacing demand. United States crude fell $1.79 to close at $44.15 a barrel in New York. Brent crude, a benchmark for international oils used by many refineries in the United States, fell $1.94 to close at $47.58 in London. United States stocks had a strong opening after big gains in Asia.

Question: Who is President Bashar al-Assad sending to help?

The scene unfolded almost a month after President Bashar al-Assad, in a rare public speech, had vowed to send reinforcements to rescue the holdouts, declaring, “The army will arrive soon to these heroes.” Afterward, insurgents, including members of the Nusra Front, which is affiliated with Al Qaeda, captured the gutted hospital, completing their takeover of the town of Jisr al-Shoughour, a crucial location on the road from the mostly insurgent-held province of Idlib toward the government’s strongholds on the coast. The loss of the hospital came two days after Islamic State militants drove government forces out of the desert town of Palmyra in central Syria in a lightning attack that has shocked the country. In addition, on Friday, the Islamic State group, also known as ISIS or ISIL, seized a military outpost near Palmyra, after its takeover on Thursday of a border crossing between Syria and Iraq farther east.

Question: In what year was the Marriage Law enacted?

For some women who choose to join the salesteam, the company has provided a way out of poverty — about half the population lives on less than $2 a day — and prescribed social roles. Although women are increasingly joining the work force, the Indonesian government and religious groups have for decades pushed traditional values in which the primary roles of women are as wives and mothers. The country’s 1974 Marriage Law states that the husband is the head of the family and the wife is the caretaker. As it has done in other emerging markets, Tupperware encouraged women to move past any insecurities about taking on a new role. The company has a campaign called “Chain of Confidence,” in which it posts video interviews of saleswomen talking about how their lives have changed for the better. The company also has an inspirational campaign for Indonesia, “Tupperware She Can,” that also posts aspirational videos. “Everyone talks about how the dynamism of Asia is the emerging middle class, and the emerging middle class is driven by women who previously didn’t have the opportunity,” said Rick Goings, global chairman and chief executive of Tupperware Brands Corporation. “I’m not saying men didn’t work hard, but there’s a new opportunity for women in Asia.” Upi Hariwati is one of the Indonesian women who has seized the opportunity. Four years ago, the 39-year-old wife and mother of a young son began looking for solutions after growing tired of her family’s living paycheck to paycheck from her husband’s job.

Answer: 1974

For some women who choose to join the salesteam, the company has provided a way out of poverty — about half the population lives on less than $2 a day — and prescribed social roles. Although women are increasingly joining the work force, the Indonesian government and religious groups have for decades pushed traditional values in which the primary roles of women are as wives and mothers. <hl> The country’s 1974 Marriage Law states that the husband is the head of the family and the wife is the caretaker. <hl> As it has done in other emerging markets, Tupperware encouraged women to move past any insecurities about taking on a new role.

Question: What airport terminal is brought up?

And yet the tragedy here is too vast, too diffuse, to be coated with a hard shell of spending. Look out Brookfield’s front window and see, clumped together across the street, One World Trade Center, which one recent afternoon was half-cloaked in spooky fog, eerily telegraphing impermanence; Santiago Calatrava’s bird, which would look majestic were it not beset at each side by new development; and the National September 11 Memorial and Museum. It is a chaos of remembrance, competitive and dense. And magnetic to visitors, or marks waiting to be pickpocketed the late-capitalist way: a mall. Even if you view Brookfield Place ahistorically, it is a shrugworthy set of stores, not much more inspiring than what you would find in Terminal 4 at Kennedy Airport. The product mix leans heavily on shoes, handbags and other accessories: luxury purchase as trauma-porn memento. Mostly it exists as an argument that capitalism is the safest space. As long as we protect it, almost any pain can be shouted down. (Any doubts about the mall as a site of political meaning need look no further than recent Black Lives Matter protests that have targeted shopping centers.)

Question: How does Towns' father feel about his performance?

Towns’s confidence was on full display. After he connected on a 17-foot jump shot toward the end of regulation, he bowed for the crowd. His night was punctuated by four interviews: one on the court with the in-house announcer, another with the local television broadcast team, a third with NBA TV (during which he did a solid impression of Shaquille O’Neal, one of the hosts) and finally a small news conference for reporters in front of his locker. Karl Towns, his father, waited outside. He said he was extremely proud of his son, except for his two missed free throws. “He owes me 10 push-ups, and he knows it,” Karl Towns said. As the Timberwolves continue to search for an offensive rhythm, Ricky Rubio, now one of the team’s more experienced players, said he was getting a better feel for where and when Karl-Anthony Towns wanted the ball. Rubio declined to offer specifics.

Question: What era did gas shortages occur?

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

Question: Where did Kelly receive his walking papers?

N.F.L. Week 7 scores and highlights Four games into the 2015 season, the Eagles were 1-3 and fans were calling for Coach Chip Kelly’s head. Speculation ran wild about which college program Kelly might helm next year after receiving his walking papers in Philadelphia. But with two straight wins, including a 27-7 throttling of their division rival Giants, the Eagles sit atop the N.F.C. East. Their offense, which struggled mightily in its first four games, averaged 472 yards in its last two (it averaged only 294 in its first four). In short, the Eagles are looking like the Eagles many expected coming into this season. And they are doing it despite the poor play of quarterback Sam Bradford, who tossed three interceptions against the Giants and is second in the league in interceptions over all with nine. Bradford does not seem to have any grasp on what his problems are.

Question: How many components does Dr. Lam and Dr. Ohayon require?

Now he has returned to the research: In the Green Neuroscience Laboratory, a sandboxlike table is home to small robot used to model neural network behavior. The research group recently published work exploring the basis of neural activity needed to support movement in an environment. But Dr. Ohayon is treading gingerly, looking for ways to ensure that his findings are not misused. “We have to treat neuroscience and robotics like we treat biological and chemical weapons,” he said. Dr. Lam and Dr. Ohayon have decided that all of their research projects must have two components.

Question: In Euros, how much has operation profit for Deutsche Bank fallen?

But Mr. Jain argued that Deutsche Bank needed to be a force on Wall Street to serve blue-chip German companies that almost always have large operations in the United States. “It is critical for us to have a strong and credible presence in the U.S. in order to claim that we are a true global competitor,” Mr. Jain said. True, he could point to a rebound in Deutsche Bank’s investment banking unit during the last quarter. The bank said that revenue generated from trading stocks, bonds and currencies was the highest in years. Revenue from investment banking rose 15 percent, to €4.7 billion. Operating profit for the unit fell by more than half, to €643 million, after subtracting a portion of the penalty paid in the rate-fixing scandal. Mr. Jain said the bank will “avoid trying to be all things to all people.” But critics would say the bank, trapped in its image of itself as Germany’s beachhead in the financial world, is still trying to do too much.

Question: How much did the Girl Scouts raise in a month?

“Help us raise back the $100,000 a donor asked us to return because we welcome transgender girls,” read the headline on the page, which included a video about the Girl Scouts’ commitment to inclusivity. In a little over five hours, Ms. Ferland says, the site had already received over $100,000 in donations. By the end of that first day, the number was up to $243,958 from 4,760 donors. By the time the fund-raising effort was concluded a month later, the organization had raised $365,573. It was a victory for the Girl Scouts and a lesson for the philanthropic community. “The lesson for the fund-raising community is that if you’re interested in accessing the L.G.B.T. market, your values have to be those of inclusiveness,” says Mickey MacIntyre of realChange Partners, a consultant for nonprofits, focusing on L.G.B.T. issues.

Question: Which horse won the Florida Derby?

5. Materiality  Trainer: Todd Pletcher Jockey: John Velazquez Record: 3-3-0-0 Points: 100 Odds: 12-1 J.D.: Materiality, the Florida Derby champion, is trying to do an awful lot in little time. I’m betting against his winning the Run for the Roses on such a small foundation. M.H.: A son of Afleet Alex, he looked impressive in staying perfect at the Florida Derby. But long odds remain: Since 1882, no horse has won the Derby without racing at 2.  6. Upstart  Trainer: Rick Violette Jockey: Jose Ortiz Record: 7-3-3-1 Points: 76 Odds: 18-1 J.D.: Melissa likes this horse better than I do. He spiked a fever over the weekend and missed a workout, which is not an ideal way to head into the Derby.
