Question: who is the CEO of Barnes and Noble?

“We didn’t have any money, and my mother was a voracious reader,” he said. “I remember telling a friend, when I grow up, I want to be able to afford hardcover books.” Mr. Boire, who took the helm as chief executive of Barnes & Noble in September, still seems to have a soft spot for physical books. Walking through the first floor of a Barnes & Noble store in Union Square in Manhattan recently, Mr. Boire couldn’t help himself from reflexively straightening the jagged piles of books on the display tables so that the spines lined up neatly. Now Mr. Boire, 54, the former chief executive of Sears Canada and a retail veteran who has worked at Brookstone, Best Buy and Toys “R” Us, is under pressure to reverse the fortunes of the beleaguered bookstore chain, which has been stung in recent years by the rise of Amazon, steep losses from its Nook e-reader division and a string of store closings. To that end, Mr. Boire is leading a push to rebrand Barnes & Noble as more than just a bookstore by expanding its offerings of toys, games, gadgets and other gifts and reshaping the nation’s largest bookstore chain into a “lifestyle brand.” “Everything we do around learning, personal growth and development fits our brand,” Mr. Boire said. “There’s a lot of opportunity.”

Question: How many members of Turnbull's own party voted for him?

But Mr. Turnbull will have to lead not only the lawmakers in his own party — 44 of whom did not vote for him on Monday night, against 54 who did — but also a country where policy in recent years often seems to have been made on the run, and often in response to flagging opinion polls. Australia’s current political turmoil dates from the Labor Party government of Kevin Rudd, who became prime minister in 2007.

Question: In what area of agriculture is Iran outdated?

In Tehran, officials barely managed to keep the water running this summer as reservoirs shrank to dangerously low levels. Subsidies for water and electricity encourage overconsumption in urban areas. Isa Kalantari, a former minister of agriculture, warns that more than half of Iran’s provinces could become uninhabitable within 15 years, displacing millions of people. As in drought-stricken California, agriculture accounts for about 90 percent of water consumption in Iran. And here, matters are not helped by the prevalence of crude, centuries-old irrigation methods and other wasteful practices.

Question: Why do the rides stop at Chomp Chomp?

In my line of work, grimness of the mouth sets in after I’ve eaten too many things that are trying so hard to impress that they lose touch with anything that comes close to pleasure. And each time I see a roomful of people handing hundreds or thousands of dollars over to a chef who stopped caring a long time ago, my mood turns distinctly Novemberish. Whaling jobs being harder to come by than in Melville’s day, my sea voyages usually take the form of a short ride to a cheap restaurant where warm flavors from another part of the world will burn off my interior drizzle. Recently, these rides have ended at Chomp Chomp in Greenwich Village for radish cakes, noodle soups with transporting powers, coconut rice, triangles of golden beef-filled roti wet with curry sauce, and other treats from the food courts of Singapore.

Question: What was the number of disciplinary infractions of Mr. Harrell?

Mr. Harrell had served several stints in prison for drug crimes starting in 2002. He had five disciplinary infractions while incarcerated, including one days before his death for possessing contraband, according to prison records. None involved violence. Inmates and family members say that any erratic behavior more likely stemmed from his mental illness. In the weeks before his death, they said, he had been depressed. In 2010 he learned he had bipolar disorder and was hospitalized, according to medical records. His wife, Diane Harrell, said that when he was not taking his medication, he would go through the house turning over family photographs for fear they were staring at him. He also believed the television was talking to him, she said.

Question: What are film makers not above?

Question: Steve Jobs ordered an orange juice that was needed to be what?

A couple of months ago, right after my first son was born, I thought about the lessons I wanted to pass along to him that I had learned a little late in life. Among the morals I scribbled down in my mind one that stood out began with a story involving Steve Jobs and ended with the serving of my mother’s last meal. The Jobs portion of the story occurred on a late-October morning in 2010, when he was sitting with a mutual friend in the restaurant of the Four Seasons hotel in San Francisco. The waitress, a shy woman who looked to be in her mid-30s, according to the friend, approached them and asked what they wanted for breakfast. Mr. Jobs said he wanted freshly squeezed orange juice. After a few minutes, the waitress returned with a large glass of juice. Mr. Jobs took a tiny sip and told her tersely that the drink was not freshly squeezed. He sent the beverage back, demanding another.

Question: Who was accused ?

Russia has been accused of trying to create a so-called frozen conflict that it could heat up in order to destabilize Ukraine any time it draws too close to the West. Critics of the new agreement said it would help Moscow achieve that over the long run, even while Ukraine took financial responsibility for the rebel regions. “The practical, realistic expectation is a frozen conflict with no effective control by Kiev over those areas, but no formal responsibility of Russia,” said Fyodor Lukyanov, the editor of the journal Russia in Global Affairs.

Question: What is Dellavedova's first name?

And on Sunday night, neither seemed to be able to make a basket. The Cavaliers shot 1 for 8 in overtime, and they won the game. Iman Shumpert hit their one bucket, a 3-pointer that put them on the board 1 minute 13 seconds in, but he also had a layup blocked. LeBron James was 0 for 3. Matthew Dellavedova and J.R. Smith both missed. James Jones missed a wide-open 3 that would have put his team ahead with 11 seconds left. The Warriors made just two shots, both by Draymond Green from inside two feet. Stephen Curry was 0 for 4, had two turnovers and put up an air ball with a chance to retake the lead with seven seconds left. Over all in the game, Curry was 5 for 23 from the floor and 2 for 15 from 3-point range, bringing up memories of John Starks’s 2-for-18 and 0-for-11 performance for the Knicks in Game 7 of the 1994 finals.

Question: When do we want to avoid providing patent protection for profit-increasing activities?

Prior disclosure can come in the form of an obscure research article; an old, expired patent; or inclusion of a chemical structure in a giant online database, for example. (When it comes to obviousness, there’s a tension. We don’t want to provide patent protection for profit-increasing activities that do not benefit patients, like “me too” drugs — drugs that are only trivially different from existing ones. But some things that are obvious also might be beneficial, and for those we’d want to encourage development.) The crux of the problem is this: For pharmaceuticals, patent protection is used as a means for innovators to recoup the costly investments that drug development requires. But the patent system was not devised to solve this specific problem. It’s a broader system intended to encourage innovation, which it does, while at the same time permitting individuals and firms to exploit obvious and old ideas freely, which is generally a valuable protection.

Question: How many parking lots does the home have?

As for pricing the house, Ms. Goldberg said the loftlike open spaces, abundant light, pair of parking spots and capacious elevator all contribute to its appeal. “There’s nothing else like it,” she said. “Between its size and airiness, the extravagance of the renovation and the beauty of the garden seen through the two window walls, it is truly a serenely special home and art studio. It would be wonderful if another artist bought it. Of course, the garden lot could also be sold separately, but that would be tragic.”

Question: Who wants to interview Iranian nuclear scientist?

TEHRAN —  Iran’s supreme leader on Wednesday ruled out allowing international inspectors to interview Iranian nuclear scientists as part of any potential deal on its nuclear program, and reiterated that the country would not allow the inspection of military sites. In a graduation speech at the Imam Hussein Military University in Tehran, the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, widely believed to have the final say on whether Iran accepts a deal if one is reached next month, denounced what he said were escalating demands by the United States and five other world powers as they accelerate the pace of the negotiations with Iran.

Question: When was Hamada Ben-Amor arrested?

The exhibition looks at this evolution, and then the vital role that music played in the Arab Spring. On Nov. 7, 2010, Hamada Ben-Amor, a young rapper in Tunisia known as “El Général,” released a song criticizing the government of President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali. The biting rhymes of the song, “Rais Lebled” (President, Your Country), led to the rapper's arrest on Jan. 6. But despite the government’s attempt to make his music disappear, El Général’s song quickly became the anthem of the Arab Spring. Toward the end of “Hip-Hop, From the Bronx to the Arab Street,” visitors get a chance to view an exclusive sampling of art works made by international graffiti artists. The unique work of the Lebanese artist Yazan Halwani, who combines Arabic calligraphy and graffiti, finds echoes in the slogans of the Tunisian graffiti artist Meen-one. It’s another reminder of hip-hop as a cultural form and its role as a platform for artists to spread political and social messages.

The unique work of the Lebanese artist Yazan Halwani, who combines Arabic calligraphy and graffiti, finds echoes in the slogans of the Tunisian graffiti artist Meen-one. It’s another reminder of hip-hop as a cultural form and its role as a platform for artists to spread political and social messages.

The biting rhymes of the song, “Rais Lebled” (President, Your Country), led to the rapper's arrest on <hl> Jan. 6 <hl> .


Question: What was to receive a makeover?

Some analysts said that Ms. Konstantopoulou, a stickler for rules, could prevent him from using the fast-track procedures that would be necessary to get the job done in time to satisfy European leaders. Portions of the plan must be passed by Wednesday, and more a week from Wednesday. Among the elements that must be dealt with this week are increases in the value added tax, including the end of a special tax status for the Greek islands; a makeover of the pension system; and the imposition of automatic spending cuts if the government misses budget targets. Ms. Konstantopoulou issued a statement saying she had no intention of resigning, even as Mr. Tsipras’s allies talked of impeaching her.

Question: Out of the three partners, who wanted to purse hostile takeovers?

Yet Mr. Kohlberg and his protégés grew apart, separated by philosophies over corporate strategy and lifestyle. Where Mr. Kravis and Mr. Roberts were willing to pursue large-scale, hostile takeovers, Mr. Kohlberg instead chose to focus on smaller deals, always on friendly terms. By the time Mr. Kohlberg retired from the sector altogether in 1994, the leveraged-buyout business — since renamed “private equity” — was on its path to becoming immense, eventually making billionaires of Mr. Kravis and Mr. Roberts, as well as rivals like Stephen A. Schwarzman of the Blackstone Group and David Rubenstein of the Carlyle Group. Mr. Kohlberg maintained a less ostentatious life, shunning the high-roller social soirees for tennis, reading and later yoga.

Question: Who is Steven Pitt?

“Look for the defense to emphasize the fact that James Holmes truly suffers from a serious mental illness, that he is in dire need of ongoing treatment and that while incarcerated he does not pose any real threat or danger to society,” said Steven Pitt, a forensic psychiatrist in Arizona who has followed the case closely. “Look for the prosecution to try and minimize the extent of Holmes’s mental illness and instead depict him as someone who is depraved and rotten to the core.” The district attorney, George Brauchler, has said that for Mr. Holmes, “justice is death.” Prosecutors argued that Mr. Holmes plotted the shootings for several weeks, deliberately and meticulously, because he had lost his first and only girlfriend, had dropped out of his graduate program and had generally lost his purpose in life.

Question: What did the interview remove?

The interview drowned out Mr. Cameron’s vow on Wednesday to introduce a law guaranteeing no rise in income tax rates, value-added tax or national insurance before 2020 if his party wins the election. The Labour Party dismissed Mr. Cameron’s pledge as a “last-minute gimmick,” and said that the Conservatives had a “secret plan” to cut tax credits for families and raise the value-added tax. Labour even put together a website, torysecretplan.com, which features a fake email to Mr. Cameron from George Osborne, the chancellor of the Exchequer, laying out cuts not to be announced until after the election. Opinion polls suggest a hung Parliament, with no party winning an absolute majority, and the two main parties, the Conservatives and Labour, splitting about two-thirds of the vote.

Question: Who wrote "Steve Jobs" ?

★ ‘Steve Jobs’ (R, 2:02) This three-panel portrait of the Apple co-founder, written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by Danny Boyle, portrays Jobs (Michael Fassbender) as a complicated, ambitious man caught in a tangle of messy personal and business relationships. Isolating Jobs at three crucial moments in his career, the film plays like a fast, busy backstage comedy and ends up being a richly intelligent exploration of our ambivalence about technology, genius and consumer capitalism. (Scott) ‘Suffragette’ (PG-13, 1:47) Carey Mulligan plays Maud Watts, a laundry worker in London in 1912 who becomes a militant supporter of women’s voting rights. In telling her story, Sarah Gavron (the director) and Abi Morgan (who wrote the screenplay) hit a few soft and sentimental notes, but they also explore the vital and still relevant connection between feminism and class consciousness in modern democratic politics. (Scott) ‘Tamasha’ (No rating, 2:35, in Hindi) Imtiaz Ali’s Bollywood melodrama begins as an agreeable romance between a vacationing young man (Ranbir Kapoor) and woman (a charismatic but largely squandered Deepika Padukone); morphs into a professional identity crisis for the man; and concludes as a lavish self-serving ode by the director to his own calling. (Webster)

Question: Who was trying to minimize the disruption?

“Going forward, we will have more security personnel inside,” he said, noting that the protester’s walk to the stage had been obscured by the standing ovation for Ms. Netrebko. “We will be extra careful to have personnel in all the strategic places where they need to be.” Mr. Torgovitsky said that he had tried to minimize the disruption he caused by waiting for the end of “Iolanta,” which he said he enjoyed. And he compared his actions with those of Mr. Putin, who he said had ignored international treaties in Ukraine and the Crimea. “I did just .001 percent of that,” he said. “I did ignore the feelings of Netrebko and Gergiev for sure, but basically hoping to bring this issue visibility and discussion.”

Question: Which two rights has Mr. Faulkner opposed to?

But Mr. Faulkner also acknowledged that his mayoral bid was very much a work in progress. The pastor said he had yet to speak with either of the city’s last two Republican mayors, Michael R. Bloomberg and Rudolph W. Giuliani, about his campaign. Queried about his ideas for affordable housing, Mr. Faulkner said he would have more specific policy proposals within a year. Although Republicans intend to back a strong candidate against Mr. de Blasio, the party does not have a deep bench. Speculation so far has focused on Raymond W. Kelly, who was the police commissioner under Mayor Bloomberg, and Eva S. Moskowitz, the charter school executive who was previously elected to office as a Democrat, but has clashed bitterly with Mr. de Blasio over education policy. Mr. Faulkner is a social conservative who has opposed abortion rights and same-sex marriage. (Asked about his views on same-sex marriage on Monday, Mr. Faulkner said that the mayor of New York City had no role in the issue.) Still, clad in a pinstriped suit with a blue ribbon pinned to his chest — to show support for the police, he said — Mr. Faulkner said he had the force of personality and the right philosophy of government to lead New York.

Question: The City Ballet recruited mainly what?

More than equality is at stake when Ms. Copeland — the first African-American principal female dancer in the company’s 75-year history — dances. When a company is diverse, the audience becomes more diverse, too, and for those faced with aging, dwindling audiences, that is priceless. Money is another incentive to change: The Rockefeller Brothers Fund, the Ford Foundation and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation have financed recent diversity initiatives. The two major New York companies have realized that change starts with the schools. If it takes 10 years to make a dancer — and you can’t waste a minute — diversifying ballet must begin with children. Both Ballet Theater’s Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis School and the School of American Ballet, the training ground for City Ballet, have initiated programs to spot and recruit young minority dancers.

Question: What recently caused damage to the property?

“It may be a maternal refusal to face facts,” says Mann plaintively when challeged about her fine distinctions. “I only wish that people looked at the pictures the way I do.” As Mann and I sit on the steps of the cabin at the 400-acre farm she owns with her brothers, Jessie and Virginia are splashing in the Maury River below, having stripped as soon we arrived. Most of the photographs in the family series were taken here, deep in the woods, miles from electricity. A flood has recently wrecked the place. With the wind billowing the curtains from the paneless windows behind us, Mann watches her children and talks about her fears for them and for the pictures. “Their lives have been so fulfilling,” she says sadly. “Adults have treated them with respect. They have no idea what’s out there in the world. I know what to be afraid of. They don’t. “When I went to that Federal prosecutor, she said: ‘Do you know what you really have to watch for? Someone who sees these pictures and moves to Lexington and ingratiates himself into your family life. They’ll come after Jessie and Virginia because they seem so pliable, so broken in.’

Question: Which difficult novel did Sandy read?

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: Where was this happening?

Outside, shaking women wept into tissues. Stern men, rocking back and forth, blinked out tears. The grief was felt throughout the Orthodox neighborhoods of Brooklyn, and in Israel, where Ms. Sassoon had met her husband. Even as people failed to make sense of the seven deaths — the largest toll from a fire in New York City since 2007 — the mourners turned their thoughts to the mother who leapt out of her bedroom window and a sister who also somehow survived. “Mommy, Mommy, help me!” one neighbor heard Siporah cry as she stumbled outside.

Question: what war do the houses construction predate?

Question: Who did the Republican's nominate?

Smith made history, but she didn’t make any real dent in the election. Most people didn’t seem to take her very seriously, and it didn’t help that her signature campaign tactic was passing out muffin recipes. The Republicans, in the end, nominated Barry Goldwater. The Democrats’ first big moment came in 1972 when Shirley Chisholm ran for the presidential nomination. Chisholm, an African-American, would have been a double historic first. But her party was in no way ready to make symbolic gestures. They needed a winner! So they nominated George McGovern. HAVE you noticed a pattern here?

Question: What disease has been transmitted even after seemingly proper cleaning and care?

The devices are uniquely difficult to disinfect, and there is no expert consensus on the best way to do so now that standard methods have been called into question. Even when health care providers “appear to be doing everything right, there has been transmission of CRE,” said Dr. Arjun Srinivasan, the associate director for health care associated infection prevention programs at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Makers of the special scopes defended their disinfection recommendations. John Haberstock, a spokesman for Pentax Medical, said its cleaning protocols achieved a “high level disinfection of duodenoscopes.” Diane Rainey, a spokeswoman for Fujifilm, said the company’s instructions to providers “are appropriate to maintain patient safety.”

Question: What is the inexhaustible appetite for versions of Wolf Hall a party a result of?

“Here comes this series, based on two Booker Prize novels with magnificent actors and a substantial investment of time and money,” Mr. Kosminsky said. “The BBC is saying, this is the kind of thing only the BBC can do.” After the series was broadcast in Britain, there was exhaustive media coverage discussing everything from Tudor economics to fashion, and engendering a predictable amount of historical debate. “There’s an important distinction to make,” said Mr. Lewis, best known for playing Nicholas Brody in the series “Homeland.” Sitting on the lawn in full big-shouldered costume, looking every inch the handsome, charismatic and still-trim monarch he plays in the series, he added: “We are not telling Tudor history; we are creating ‘Wolf Hall’ from novels, which are already a rereading of Tudor history.” The apparently inexhaustible appetite for versions of Ms. Mantel’s story is partly the result of Britain’s perpetual fascination with the Tudor dynasty but is mostly testament to her vividly original reading of the period: Henry’s desperation for a male heir, the break with the Roman Catholic Church, the beginnings of Protestantism, the dissolution of the monasteries and the eventual execution of Anne, the point at which the second book ends. (Ms. Mantel is writing a third installment, “The Mirror and the Light,” which will chronicle the last four years of Cromwell’s life.) All these events are mediated through the perspective and personality of Cromwell, usually depicted by historians as an unscrupulous and cruel power-monger, but here given a far more enigmatic profile as Ms. Mantel’s narrative follows his rise from blacksmith’s son to heights of power second only to the king. As Cromwell frees his master from his marriage to Catherine of Aragon so that he may marry Anne Boleyn, then orchestrates her downfall, he emerges as clever, witty and urbane, multilingual, inexhaustibly energetic and a master of the dog-eat-dog political chess game that is Henry’s court.

Question: what country is deprived by Harris' departure?

“I played 27 more tests than I ever thought I would,” Harris said Saturday. “I relished every single moment of them.” His departure robs Australia of its one bowler who has proved effective in English conditions, as he was its leading wicket-taker in England in 2013. Harris, 35, was a subtle craftsmen among a clutch of flamethrowers, relying on control and variation. rather than sheer speed. His loss increases Australia’s likely reliance on its two fearsome left-armers, Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Johnson, and it is also a reminder of one potential vulnerability of the defending champion — its age. Brad Haddin, the wicketkeeper, and Chris Rogers, an opening batsman, are both 37. Middle-order batsman Adam Voges is a 35-year-old test rookie. Johnson is 33, while captain Michael Clarke is 34 and has a history of back trouble. Much will depend on Clarke’s heir apparent as captain, Steve Smith. The 26-year-old was once regarded as a “bits and pieces” player who was not quite good enough in any of his roles, but he has developed into a batting specialist who now tops the world rankings.

Question: did the probate judge think the hearing was high priority?

Probate Judge Clifford L. Klein of the Los Angeles County Superior Court set a new hearing date, tentatively for late January, to consider the motion from Mr. Redstone’s lawyers to dismiss the suit. The judge said that he found no urgency in the matter because of the quality of health care that Mr. Redstone now receives. Meanwhile, no other action is being taken. Mr. Redstone is the executive chairman of Viacom and CBS and controls about 80 percent of the voting stock in the two media companies. While the legal dispute concerns his personal life, the questions about his health have raised broader issues about his role leading a media empire that has a combined market value of $45 billion. Mr. Redstone’s total compensation for the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30, 2014, was $13.2 million at Viacom and $10.8 million at CBS.

Question: How many nations are in the eurozone?

The euro on Friday reached its lowest level against the dollar since June 7, 2010, when it hit $1.1923. The currency of the 19-nation eurozone has fallen nearly 14 percent since it climbed to $1.3910 on May 7. The last time the euro was so low, Greece’s debt problems were causing havoc in the eurozone and there was fear the common currency would not survive. Greece is again in turmoil, with coming elections likely to usher in a left-wing government, but is no longer the main cause of the euro’s decline. The concern now is that the eurozone is already stuck in the same kind of stagnation that has afflicted Japan for two decades. “History shows that falling prices can be as damaging to the prosperity and stability of our countries as high inflation,” Mr. Draghi told Handelsblatt.
