Question: What organization does not track spice use?

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: How much money did the fund raise in 2015?

As of mid-May, the fund had raised just $18 million in the 2015 fiscal year, compared with an average of $29 million a year over the last decade. The Education Department said on Tuesday that by June 30, the end of the fiscal year, the fund had raised $21.75 million, but it said it could not provide a list of new grants that were secured in May and June. Under Ms. Chen, the organization’s staff shrank to 10, from 21. Most recently, the chief financial officer left only a few months after she was hired. According to one of the people familiar with confidential discussions about the circumstances of Ms. Chen’s departure, members of the board had been unsettled by a recent audit committee meeting in which Ms. Chen was unable to answer questions about the fund’s finances. Ms. Chen, whose resignation was first reported by Politico New York, did not respond to an email. The Education Department’s press office offered a statement on her behalf, saying she “greatly appreciated the opportunity to work with the chancellor and the city’s extraordinary philanthropic community.” The department said that Sarah Geisenheimer, a former associate director at the Rockefeller Foundation and a senior adviser to Ms. Fariña, had been made acting executive director of the fund, effective immediately, and that it would conduct a formal search for a permanent executive director.

Question: Is the anonymity of the volunteers certain ?

These volunteers should be able to do their work without having to worry that the United States government is monitoring what they read and write. Unfortunately, their anonymity is far from certain because, using upstream surveillance, the N.S.A. intercepts and searches virtually all of the international text-based traffic that flows across the Internet “backbone” inside the United States. This is the network of fiber-optic cables and junctions that connect Wikipedia with its global community of readers and editors.

Question: What was the high mark of return on capital that Deutsche Bank intended to achieve prior to the financial crisis?

For Deutsche Bank, the change will entail a reduction of hundreds of billions of euros in the bank’s use of borrowed funds. It also means that the bank will earn a lower return on the money it invests than in the past. The bank will aim for a 10 percent return on capital, down from a previous target of 12 percent and a far cry from the 25 percent return that Deutsche Bank sought to achieve before the financial crisis. In addition, the bank said it aimed to cut costs by 3.5 billion euros, or about $3.8 billion, a year. The cuts would seem to suggest that Deutsche Bank will have little choice but to join other European banks like UBS or Barclays in scaling back its American operations.

Question: What company was a victim of a price-fixing scheme?

Pointing to the same evidence, Motorola Mobility, one of the corporate victims of the price-fixing scheme, filed a follow-on civil antitrust suit, seeking damages from AU Optronics and other members of the cartel. But last November, a federal appeals court in Chicago tossed out Motorola’s civil suit, saying the company’s overseas subsidiaries could not reap the benefits of America’s antitrust laws. The Supreme Court will say this month if it will take up the issue. But already, the case has brought to light the challenges of applying decades-old antitrust laws to today’s global corporations and their often complex and far-flung supply chains.

Question: What do new search start-ups focus on?

Venture capitalists are funding new search start-ups that treat information and the web as legacy products and that focus on actions and apps instead. And while Google, with $65 billion in the bank, can buy any start-up it likes, one company it cannot buy — Apple — is also joining the mobile search fray. On Thursday, Apple released an early, or “beta,” version of the next version of its iOS mobile software, giving iPhone and iPad users the ability to tap Apple’s own search engine for searches of music, apps and local services — allowing them to potentially bypass Google.

Question: Which charter schools network have been closely looked at for their severe behavior codes?

Charter schools are publicly financed, but privately run, and they are required, like regular public schools, to provide individual learning plans for children with special needs. The suit comes at a time when charter schools, especially those in the Success Academy network, have come under scrutiny for their enforcement of strict behavior codes, suspending even the youngest students. But advocates and families say that in both charters and traditional public schools, it can often be a struggle to ensure children with disabilities receive the services to which they are entitled.

Question: A Man shouted to put Hillary where?

“Put Hillary in jail!” a man shouted. Mr. Cruz smiled. “She may already be there,” he said. “But if so, I’ll be sure to bake her a cake and send it to her.” Several voters interviewed across three states on the trip so far said they admired Mr. Trump, and had previously considered supporting him, but had found themselves drifting toward Mr. Cruz. “He’s a Southern guy,” Frank Dolhan, 50, said of Mr. Cruz in Kennesaw. “Trump’s a Northern guy.” Mike Homan, 35, of Dallas, Ga., attended the event with a Trump supporter, Howard Adkins, whom he hoped to flip. Mr. Adkins wondered if Mr. Cruz might be able to preserve the spirit of some of Mr. Trump’s more explosive proposals, like restricting Muslim entry into the country, which he said had veered “unconstitutional, a little.” “It’s a hard thing to do,” Mr. Adkins said, “to stay within our Constitution and keep people out.” An event on Sunday in Trussville, Ala., included residents who had attended Mr. Trump’s rally in nearby Birmingham last month. “They have very similar messages,” said Steve McMunn, 63, who remains torn between the two.

Question: As part of the Petrobras investigation, police targeted the owner of which establishment?

“You needed a lot of improbable factors aligned for this case to begin,” Mr. Dallagnol said, sitting at a conference table one afternoon. “It was like the gods giving us a window of opportunity.” In 2012, the federal police were conducting a money-laundering investigation, which included surveillance of the owner of the Tower Gas Station. (This undistinguished institution once housed a carwash, since closed, which gave the investigation its name.) An officer on a wiretapped conversation realized that he was listening to Alberto Youssef. “Youssef had been a pilot for many years, and the cop was once an air traffic controller,” said Mr. Reinaldet, Mr. Youssef’s lawyer. “And the cop, he said to himself, ‘I know this guy.’ Pretty soon, they were tapping Youssef’s cellphone.”

Question: Who is a two-time Hart Trophy winner?

Pittsburgh’s 4-1 loss to Washington on Monday night in Sullivan’s debut dropped the Penguins to 15-11-3. They were tied for ninth in the Eastern Conference going into Tuesday night’s games and were 27th in goals per game despite ranking fifth in shots. Their power play, with a unit littered with All-Stars, is 28th, ahead of only Calgary and Arizona. Enter Sullivan, who spent a decade grinding out a career as a defensive-minded forward before getting into coaching. He now finds himself trying to get Pittsburgh’s highly capable, occasionally high-strung players working in unison. Nowhere are Pittsburgh’s struggles more evident than in Sidney Crosby’s prolonged funk. Crosby, a two-time Hart Trophy winner, is on pace for career lows in goals and points, and his team appears destined for a four-month battle just to reach the postseason let alone make a serious run at Stanley Cup to bookend the one he and fellow superstar Evgeni Malkin won in 2009 back when a dynasty seemed almost inevitable.

Question: How long did Mike Davis coach for in his previous team?

That is Texas Southern, seeded 15th in the West Region and matched against No. 2 Arizona on Thursday. And while it is unlikely that the Tigers (B.P.I.: 210) will become the first SWAC team since 1993 to win a round-of-64 game in the N.C.A.A. tournament, they have the attention of big-name programs. Coach Mike Davis coached at Indiana for six seasons, leading the Hoosiers to the 2002 championship game. This season, Davis’s third with the Tigers, Texas Southern beat Michigan State and Kansas State on the road, part of an intentionally brutal nonconference schedule intended to make up for the anchor effect of playing in the SWAC. “My vision for the program is to one day get it to the level of an at-large bid,” Davis said Wednesday.

Question: What upgrades are also included in newer router?

Not only can a newer router improve the speed and range for users, the routers typically have upgraded internal components and strong external antennas. Many also support the latest Wi-Fi standard — 802.11ac — which has top speeds that are nearly three times faster than the previous standard, 802.11n, for the fastest wireless devices you can buy today. Many smartphones, tablets and laptops released since 2013 support 802.11ac. But even older devices that support only the previous standard, 802.11n, can enjoy faster speeds at long range with a newer 802.11ac router.

Question: Who is the artist for Wonder Woman and Spider-man?

Phil Jimenez, an artist known for his work on Wonder Woman and the Amazing Spider-Man comics, says that many readers no longer want to see the effeminate stereotype of the gay man in comics. Instead, they want gay superheroes to embody normative behavior — to live as typical males. “As long as the dude is dude enough, then he’s acceptable,” he said. Mr. Jimenez, who was recently featured on an  installment of the PBS Digital Studios series “First Person” that looked at queerness in comics, applauded efforts by mainstream publishers to reach gay and lesbian readers, saying it was a smart business move.

Question: How much has the average attendence for the Mets risen since last year?

(Major League Baseball, which calculates attendance differently, has the Yankees’ average home attendance at 40,086.) The Mets are averaging 31,257 a game this season, a 17.6 percent rise from last season. That is still about 10,000 short of the capacity at Citi Field, but this season’s increase of 4,689 fans a game represents a drastic shift from a dispiriting trend: Attendance had fallen almost 32 percent from a peak of 38,941 during the inaugural season of the ballpark six years ago. Yet perhaps a more precise reflection of the passion of a fan base is viewership on a team’s cable television channel. After all, most fans prefer to watch games without having to buy tickets, which can be expensive. The Yankees’ YES Network started in 2002, soon after the peak years of the dynasty. The Mets’ SNY began in 2006 and then capitalized on a three-year period when the Mets were a good team, albeit one that endured heart-wrenching late-season collapses in 2007 and 2008.

Question: Where were the remarks spoken at?

“Bluetec technology allows us to demonstrate Audi’s commitment to always being at the very forefront of diesel technology,” he said in remarks at the Detroit auto show at the beginning of 2007. But internal friction within the company was already building. Mr. Bernhard unexpectedly did not attend that auto show, and soon resigned. Behind the scenes, Mr. Hatz was part of a faction at the company that supported using a less expensive system that did not require urea, according to two Volkswagen managers who were in a position to witness the clashes. The managers requested anonymity because they did not want to jeopardize their relationships with Volkswagen. Mr. Hatz’s viewpoint won out and the technology-sharing arrangement was soon scrapped.

Question: Who did Rousey suggest she could beat?

In the past, boxers like Holm have not fared well in mixed martial arts, compared with wrestlers and judokas, like Rousey. This had prompted numerous commentators, and Rousey herself, to suggest that she could beat even a top male boxer like Floyd Mayweather in the cage or a street fight. But it turned out a top boxer who fought intelligently, like Holm, was more than a match for her. Many analysts faulted Rousey for what they saw as fighting with overconfidence, engaging Holm with punches rather than focusing on going for a takedown.

Question: Who is the Italian foreign minister?

Question: Why does Mr. Fox claim to be returning to the private sector?

Instead, the statement said that Mr. Fox would “make his anticipated transition back to the private sector by the end of the month.” Mr. Christie said that Joseph Bertoni, the department’s deputy commissioner, would take over as acting commissioner.

Question: Which political party did Sam Young identify as?

One was Representative Sam Young, Democrat of Glover, a town in northeastern Vermont near the Canadian border. His district, where many voters are unhappy about wind turbines favored by Mr. Shumlin, voted overwhelmingly for Mr. Milne, but on Thursday, Mr. Young voted for Mr. Shumlin. “I think the person who gets the most votes should win,” Mr. Young said. This is not academic for him; he won office in 2010 after a recount — by one vote. “If Milne had won the election statewide, I would have voted for him,” Mr. Young said. “I truly believe we should preserve the democratic process: one person, one vote.”

Question: Why do people start looking into moving into Clinton Hill?

“We had a couple of nonnegotiable things — outdoor space and nothing smaller than 1,200 square feet,” Ms. Wenk said. After nine months of searching they pounced last year when they learned, through Joanna Mayfield Marks, an agent at Halstead Property, of a 1,500-square-foot condo with two terraces. The four-building complex had three units on the market late last month, ranging from a studio for $559,000 to a three-bedroom for $1.85 million, according to Andrew Booth, an associate broker at the Corcoran Group. The area has “definitely become a more popular neighborhood,” said Lea Fulton, an agent at the Ideal Properties Group. “People are coming in saying, ‘Hey, I’m interested in Clinton Hill,’ and before it was ‘I can’t afford Fort Greene anymore, so I guess I’ll look into Clinton Hill.’ ”

Question: Who bought EMC?

In addition, from all the cloud companies 80 percent of every new major purchase is for a more powerful chip. The newer and more powerful chips tend to have even higher profit margins, and also spur Intel to develop new things faster. Last week Amazon announced it would soon have Intel’s most powerful chip available in its cloud. The changes come while Intel’s traditional customers undergo their own radical changes. On Monday Dell, a big maker of servers and PCs, announced it was buying the data storage giant EMC. On Nov. 2, the server and storage businesses of Hewlett-Packard will split off from its PC business, in what top executives hope is a move for a faster-moving business.

Question: What will be a complicated task for Francis?

Replacing the cardinal will be one of Francis’ most complicated and important tasks. He will travel throughout the island, meeting different bishops and church figures. It should allow him to make a personal evaluation of the next potential leader of the Cuban church, though analysts do not expect a decision soon. “There are not a lot of bishops in Cuba,” said Gianni La Bella, an expert in Latin American Catholicism and a member of the Community of Sant’Egidio, a liberal Catholic group active in international affairs. “It is not easy to choose the right man for the place.”

Question: After the new antibiotics, how many days of consecutive progress was there?

Coughlin, who has visited Fells, said Fells had had three consecutive days of progress after responding well to the new combination of antibiotics. “I think these three straight days are really a wonderful sign, but there’s more tests to be done,” Coughlin said. “And again, the response to the antibiotic is critical.” Defensive tackle Jonathan Hankins said the players were heartened to speak directly to Fells and to see him on a big screen in the team’s auditorium. “It was good to talk to him and see how he’s doing,” Hankins said.

Question: what would have happen to Mr. Saleh if he would have stayed?

Instead, the film’s emotional climax comes as Mr. Homsi himself reaches Istanbul, released from captivity and torture by the Islamic State. He and Mr. Saleh, ask themselves if their revolution is to blame for the Islamists’ rise, and their country’s destruction. Mr. Homsi tries to reassure Mr. Saleh that he was right to flee, saying an older man would break if arrested by jihadists or the secret police, especially a man so “pure inside.” Mr. Saleh covers his eyes; a muscle in his jaw twitches. “That’s what you think,” he says.

Question: What did paleontologist, Catherine A. Forster, and colleagues recover?

Paleontologists have discovered a distant relative of Triceratops in western China that lived 160 million years ago. Named Hualianceratops wucaiwanensis, the plant-eater stood on its hind legs and was about the size of a spaniel. Hualianceratops and another dinosaur from the region, named Yinlong downsi, are the two oldest known ceratopsians, so-called horned dinosaurs, although neither the Hualianceratops nor Yinlong had horns. There were dozens of species of ceratopsians, but Triceratops, which lived in North America about 65 million years ago, is the best known. “These small dinosaurs were related to Triceratops, but very distantly,” said Catherine A. Forster, a paleontologist at George Washington University and one of the team who discovered Hualianceratops. She and her colleagues recovered a partial skull and hind leg, and described their findings in the journal PLOS One.

Question: what publication job did Georgie work for?

“So my grades were not great,” she said. One day she was summoned to the dean’s office. “Georgie,” she remembered the dean saying, “you have not made a hit socially or academically. How would you like to transfer to Princeton?” (The Ivy League school started accepting women in 1969.) “I said, ‘How would I get in?’ She told me not to worry, that it had been arranged, to just go. Being stubborn, I refused.” In the next three years, she worked hard, was elected president of the student government as well as the Glamour magazine representative for the school. She accepted that honor, she said, “wearing my usual uniform, the bluejeans, army jacket and boots.”

Question: Which inmates were most likely to be the victims of retribution?

For days after the June prison break, corrections officers carried out what seemed like a campaign of retribution against dozens of Clinton inmates, particularly those on the honor block, an investigation by The New York Times found. In letters reviewed by The Times, as well as prison interviews, inmates described a strikingly similar catalog of abuses, including being beaten while handcuffed, choked and slammed against cell bars and walls. They were also subjected to harsh policies ordered by the State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision: Dozens of inmates, many of whom had won the right to live on the honor block after years of good behavior, were transferred out of Clinton to other prisons. Many were placed in solitary confinement, and stripped of privileges they had accrued over the years — even though no prisoners have yet been linked to Mr. Matt’s and Mr. Sweat’s actions.

Question: Where is the Bogra district?

The mosque’s muezzin, Moazzem Hossain, was shot in the head and died later in a hospital. Three other men, including the mosque’s 35-year-old imam, were wounded in the attack and were hospitalized, said Ahsan Habib, the officer in charge at Shibganj police station in Bogra district, about 120 miles north of the Bangladeshi capital. “I have never heard, and never received any information, that there was rivalry or conflict between the Shiite community and anyone else,” Mr. Habib said. “This attack just astonished me.” A Shiite leader in the region, Mozaffor Hossen, 35, secretary general of the Bangladesh Imamia Welfare Foundation, said the gunmen brought a lock with them and used it to lock the compound’s gate, then entered the mosque and opened fire.

Question: Who is liked by their colleagues in spite of their legal troubles?

Despite Mr. Silver’s legal troubles, several Democrats said the former speaker continued to be well liked by his colleagues, noting that some old-guard members had privately complained that the prosecution and news media coverage of the trial seemed overzealous. But even with such complaints, few expect Mr. Silver to challenge Speaker Heastie, in part because of Mr. Heastie’s success in navigating the transition of power. “There is certainly a large reservoir of affection and respect for Shelly,” one Democratic lawmaker said. “And there has been a similar growth of affection and respect and support for Carl.”

Question: What is avoided by voice search if the answer is right?

Mr. Singhal and his group are trying to get ahead of all this with a combination of offense and defense. He and his team have moved to reinforce the golden goose that is Google’s web-based search engine by updating its ranking algorithms so that websites it deems mobile-unfriendly fall in search rankings. And they have spent five years building products like the Knowledge Graph, which responds to queries with answers. That adds power to tools like voice search and produces instant results that smartphone users appreciate because if the answer is right, they can just glance at their phone and move on, without having to click anything.

Question: Who is the representative for the American soldiers in Afghanistan?

The N.D.S. arrested a number of men in the crowd, including the butcher believed to have stabbed the soldier, said Mr. Khan and other witnesses. That seemed to provoke further anger, with the crowd demanding that Afghan security forces on the scene release their countrymen who had stood up against the foreign soldiers. A spokesman for the American-led coalition, Col. Brian Tribus, said the episode was under investigation. He added that two service members in the convoy had minor injuries. The suicide bombing wounded at least 22 people and killed one, said a spokesman for the Interior Ministry, Sediq Sediqqi. But witnesses said the death toll was probably higher.

Question: What did the school claim the case was?

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Two educators at a prestigious international school in Indonesia were freed from prison on Friday after an appeals court overturned their convictions and 10-year prison sentences on charges of sexually assaulting kindergartners, in a case that the school said was fabricated and that led to international concern about the competence of the country’s judicial system. “We are relieved and grateful that justice can finally prevail,” one of the pair, Ferdinand Tjiong, told reporters as he and the other, Neil Bantleman, were mobbed by a throng of journalists and supporters after walking through the gates of Cipinang Penitentiary in Jakarta, the Indonesian capital. “This should be a lesson to all of us that we should keep fighting for justice and the innocent,” Mr. Tjiong said.
