Question: What was Thomas' action to put emphasis on his statement, "I'm very innocent",

After the verdict, Dolan and Thomas made a show of suggesting that the jury was gullible and that they would appeal. “I’m very innocent,” Thomas said immediately afterward, tapping his chest for emphasis. “I will appeal.” He did not. During the trial, Dolan took puffed-chest pride in testifying that he had decided to fire Browne all on his own, without talking to his corporate counsel. “All decisions at the Garden I make on my own,” he said. Yes, well, that worked out, didn’t it? The jury found that Dolan’s decision constituted a retaliatory firing and violated federal law. Dolan’s people vowed that the boss positively, absolutely would appeal. He did not. But he did assure New Yorkers that “the normal operations of M.S.G. and the New York Knicks will continue unabated.”

Question: What time was the Sunday game supposed to start?

Coughlin called Beckham “emotional” and said curbing his on-field excesses was an ongoing process. Disciplining Beckham could not have been easy for the N.F.L., which moved the Giants’ next game, in Minnesota, to Sunday night from its original 1 p.m. scheduled start, in part to feature Beckham in prime time. In that game, the Giants may be trying to keep their playoff hopes alive. Just last week, Beckham received the most votes of any wide receiver from fans in the league’s Pro Bowl balloting. A Sunday night appearance would also have put Beckham in a highlighted spot for fantasy football contestants nationwide.

Answer: 1 p.m

Question: Who else was a host at the event?

LOS ANGELES — I first met Eva Chow — encountered would actually be a better term — in 2013 in the courtyard of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It was the museum’s third Art & Film Gala, and Mrs. Chow, a host with Leonardo DiCaprio, was working the room like a piranha in a goldfish bowl. Air kisses with François-Henri Pinault. Chitchat with Jane Fonda. An excited wave to Ed Ruscha.

Question: Where was The Legend of Pale Male filmed?

A red-tailed hawk named Pale Male became a celebrity after starring in a film, “The Legend of Pale Male,” that opened at the Angelika Film Center in Greenwich Village in 2010. And one raccoon in Central Park is so well known that he goes by a single name – Rocky – a rarefied status typically afforded to superstars like Madonna or Cher. Unlike hawks and raccoons, however, alligators are not native to New York. Ms. Silver suggested that CockadoodleQ may have at one point been a pet, and in her statement she reminded New Yorkers that it is illegal to keep alligators and other exotic animals as house pets in the city.

Question: Where did the great grandmother flee from?

A friend of mine inherited a Bavarian coffee set from her maternal great-grandmother, a woman who fled Europe in the late 1930s, carrying little more than the purpose-built, velvet-lined case that still holds it. That family is scattered across the globe and the way of life the coffee set embodied has vanished, but the dainty china pot and matching cups remain flawless. Porcelain is like that. We all know that the sweep of a careless elbow can shatter it into unmendable bits. But take some basic precautions and in a hundred years it will look as good as new — its colors undimmed, its whites snowy — after you and your children are dead and gone. It is fragile, and it is strong.

Question: With what can Engles attract some new conferences?

“I think we become a strong candidate now for all of these leagues,” Engles said. “We can attract some conferences now with a new facility.” Kaplan said the institute was hoping for a September 2017 completion date. Commissioners for the Northeast Conference, the America East Conference and the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference each congratulated N.J.I.T. on the announcement of the new arena. But beyond that, they deferred comment. One hope for N.J.I.T. could come from the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, a league of historically black colleges and universities.

Question: Who was included in the study that showed an effect on death from cardiovascular causes?

Let’s not cherry-pick, though. A systematic review of randomized controlled trials of salt intake was published last year. Eight trials involving more than 7,200 participants looked at whether advising patients to cut down on salt, or reducing sodium intake, affected outcomes. None of the trials, including ones involving people with both normal and high blood pressure, showed a reduction in all-cause mortality. Only one trial even showed an effect on death from cardiovascular causes, like heart attack or stroke. It was conducted on residents of an assisted-living facility who had high blood pressure — hardly representative of the population as a whole, which is what dietary guidelines are supposed to cover.

Question: What did people at the shelter eat?

On Monday, the fire leapt across Highway 20, embers blowing from treetop to treetop, dismaying the firefighters, who had hoped to contain the blaze to one side of the road. The ability of a fire to keep catching — called its probability of ignition — is assessed by fire experts. The Rocky Fire has a probability of ignition of 100 percent, almost unheard-of when the tinder is forest and scrub, as it is here. “That’s something I’ve never seen,” Captain Oatman said. In the gymnasium of nearby Middletown High School, a few evacuees were sleeping on green cots in an impromptu Red Cross shelter, one of two in the area. In the school’s theater, about a dozen people ate a meal of chicken and linguine, occasionally rising to scan a large printout of the day’s fire map on the wall, anxiously checking how close the angry red blotch was to their homes.

Question: Who is home to the world's largest number of smartphone users?

Ford said it was in talks with Tencent, maker of the popular WeChat messaging app, to develop messaging functions for the manufacturer’s cars in China. David Huang, a senior engineer who heads Ford’s Asia Pacific connected-services unit, said, “People want to stay connected, stay informed and stay entertained all the time, even when they’re driving.” Drivers would sync their phone to their car’s software system and control WeChat functions, chosen by Tencent and certified by Ford as safe, through voice commands or limited use of buttons. Yale Zhang, managing director of the Shanghai-based consultancy Automotive Foresight, said connectivity was a deciding factor for Chinese customers buying a car. “Those kind of things are the fundamental things people will consider,” he added. Many Chinese use WeChat’s free voice messaging feature instead of phone calls, holding up their smartphones like walkie-talkies as they speak, tap and listen to replies. Rivals including Daimler and Nissan are also looking at ways to give drivers safe, hands-free access to mobile apps in China, home to the world’s largest number of smartphone users. WeChat is China’s most prevalent chatting app, with about half a billion active monthly users.

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 type of story has the same simplicity as this one?

With the simplicity of a fable and the drama of a psychological thriller, Ball tells a story about starting over from nothing, reconstructing life from its most basic elements. These acts of narrative deconstruction highlight his strength as a deeply questioning writer at home in fact as much as abstraction. In the village’s cemetery, Ball deconstructs death. Noting that gravestones are “irrational” because they prolong suffering while failing to bring back the dead, the claimant wonders: “But, if life is just that, just being reasonable, then there is nothing in it — nothing worthwhile. So, the yearning that we have to keep dead things living — or to make unreasonable things reasonable. That is why a person should live.”

Question: What type of stone was used for the exterior of the home?

INDOORS: The house was built in 1928 and renovated within the last 10 years, at which point a wing was added. The exterior is limestone, likely quarried in the region, and the style is a subset of Tudor revival called Cotswold, known for steeply pitched gables and prominent front chimneys. The new wing was designed by Stock & Stone Architecture of Columbus, which the listing agent says is known for its work on older houses. Through the front door, there’s a foyer that leads to a living room with a high pitched ceiling and a fireplace flanked by large windows. The exposed ceiling beams are original, as is much of the chestnut woodwork, complemented by stone floors laid during renovations. On one side of the foyer are a breakfast room and a kitchen, with appliances updated over the last 10 years. On the other side of the foyer is a wing with three bedrooms and two bathrooms; another bedroom and bathroom are upstairs.

Question: Where does he eat alot of vegetarian food?

Which makes it a weekend dish, probably? Not necessarily. You could set the currants in vinegar in the morning and let them sit all day. Make the dressing in early evening as the squash roasts and cools. Then lay out the half moons across a platter that’s warmer than your room. And drape the sauce — thick and almost clumpy — across them, and onto the negative space between them as well. It seems like a lot of sauce. It isn’t, though, when there’s good bread to mop it up as your companions stab at the squash, at the little nuts, at the small dice of cheese. ‘‘I eat a lot of vegetarian food at home,’’ Baumgart said. ‘‘But I don’t necessarily like a vegetarian entree. I don’t like that as a concept at all. I’d pair this salad with a plate of braised greens, some good bread, and I’d be all set.’’ You will be, too.

Question: On which date did the shooting happen?

As each name of the 12 people killed and 70 wounded was read, and read again — prosecutors filed two charges per victim — the families looked to the corner of the public gallery and gave one another a quiet nod or an arm squeeze. After an emotional 10-week trial, one of the longest and most complex in this state’s history, it took a jury of nine women and three men about 12 hours of deliberation over two days to convict Mr. Holmes on all counts. He now faces a lengthy sentencing process in which prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. The jury’s verdict roundly rejected arguments from his defense lawyers that he had had a psychotic break and was legally insane when he carried out the massacre inside the Century 16 theater in suburban Aurora, Colo., on July 20, 2012. His lawyers argued he was not in control of his thoughts or actions, but prosecutors said Mr. Holmes, despite being mentally ill, had plotted the shootings with calculation and knew what he wanted to accomplish when he started firing into the crowd.

Question: What job did Cyndi Whitehead hold at Sprout Pharmaceutical?

Cindy Whitehead, who oversaw a long, but ultimately successful, effort to bring to market the first prescription drug to enhance women’s sexual drive, is leaving her post as chief executive of Sprout Pharmaceuticals. In August, the Food and Drug Administration approved Sprout’s Addyi, often referred to as the “little pink pill,” after rejecting it in 2010 and in 2013 on concerns about side effects and limited effectiveness. Shortly after the approval, Sprout, which was privately held, agreed to be acquired by Valeant Pharmaceuticals for $1 billion.

Question: What type of arrests is it customary for the Police Department to make?

Mr. Disisto has sued the Police Department and the city in federal court in Manhattan, charging he was the victim of a false arrest and malicious prosecution. “The officers attacked him and this is borne out entirely by the video evidence from the bar,” said David B. Rankin, a lawyer representing Mr. Disisto. “But for this video, Mr. Disisto likely would have been prosecuted.” The lawsuit also accuses the Police Department of having a “custom and practice” of making retaliatory arrests against people who photograph or videotape police activity. In legal papers, the city has denied that the Police Department has a policy or practice of retaliation for videotaping, said Nick Paolucci, a spokesman for the city’s Law Department.

Question: Which government is monitoring what the volunteers read and write ?

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: In which color the mishearing words were written ?

As my deafness increases, I am more and more prone to mishearing what people say, though this is quite unpredictable; it may happen 20 times, or not at all, in the course of a day. I carefully record these in a little red notebook labeled “PARACUSES” — aberrations in hearing, especially mishearings. I enter what I hear (in red) on one page, what was actually said (in green) on the opposite page, and (in purple) people’s reactions to my mishearings, and the often far-fetched hypotheses I may entertain in an attempt to make sense of what is often essentially nonsensical. After the publication of Freud’s “Psychopathology of Everyday Life” in 1901, such mishearings, along with a range of misreadings, misspeakings, misdoings and slips of the tongue were seen as “Freudian,” an expression of deeply repressed feelings and conflicts.

Question: What kind of sneakers are mentioned?

Next door is Gucci, the first American store to open under the guidance of the new creative director, Alessandro Michele. His vision — which emphasizes the brand’s traditional marks, logos and patterns, with a little extra naturalist flair — is an optimal fit for this location, as close to a fast-food environment as one can get while purchasing a reversible nylon bomber for $1,400, or a polo shirt with a snake embroidered into the collar for $810. The store is large and spare, not contemplative so much as blunt, and emphasizes items (like three-stripe sneakers and logo-print handbags) that are identifiable to even the most confused shopper. The store is currently carrying the cruise collection, but still it captures the conflict between Mr. Michele’s responsibilities to the brand as a source of innovation and as a source of gift-shop totems, two approaches to luxury that don’t always complement each other.

Question: How long has choreographer Marius Petipa been watching this particular ballet?

The 19th-century ballets tend to be labeled the classics, and “The Sleeping Beauty” (1890) has long been considered the most classical. It’s fair to say that Ballet Theater’s production of “Beauty,” directed by Alexei Ratmansky, is the most historically informed and sensitive production of any classic in our time. Perhaps its most startling suggestion is that we should reconsider the classicism of its master-choreographer, Marius Petipa. I’ve been watching this ballet for 40 years — but here the lines, phrasing, steps, extensions, footwork, turn-out, story-telling and mood are all different from what I’ve known. It’ll take a lot of getting used to. But it’s so musical that it’s immediately persuasive.

Question: Ahmad Chalabi was once backed by what nation?

Ms. Chalabi, a daughter of Ahmad Chalabi, the onetime United States-backed Iraqi opposition leader, said her foundation asked to represent Iraq again after organizing the last pavilion, in 2013.

The foundation chose Philippe Van Cauteren, artistic director of the S.M.A.K. contemporary art museum in Ghent, Belgium, to put together the exhibition, and funded it with 600,000 euros (about $675,000) from private Iraqi companies and individuals.

Question: Who asked the board to consider a new round of bidding for a casino?

The Gaming Facility Location Board reviewed 16 proposals for casino resorts in three regions north and west of New York City and recommended licenses for three projects on Dec. 17, but rebuffed two from the Southern Tier that it said were not viable. Governor Cuomo initially supported the decision, saying that a casino was not likely to spur economic development in the relatively sparsely populated area near Binghamton. But after hearing criticism from elected officials and local residents, Mr. Cuomo asked the board to consider a new round of bidding for a casino license specifically for the Southern Tier. At a board meeting Tuesday, Kevin Law, the chairman, said that he saw “no harm” in soliciting new proposals solely for the Southern Tier, as the governor suggested.

Question: What did Keith Rabois invest in?

“On a phone, the biggest intellectual difference is you don’t go to your search box as your first resort,” said Keith Rabois, a partner at the venture capital firm Khosla Ventures, who has invested in a search start-up called Relcy. “On a watch, it’s inconceivable that you would go to a search box perhaps at all.” John Lilly, a venture capitalist at Greylock Partners, said the real prize in mobile search was “whoever figures out what questions people really want to ask their phones while they are walking around, and how they will ask those questions.” That is “very unlikely to look like it did five years ago, when you typed it into a box,” he said.

Question: What is high-quality food in nature?

Question: Who directed "Macbeth"?

‘Love the Coopers’ (PG-13, 1:47) You can’t manufacture a Christmas classic by cobbling together scenes and themes from previous Christmas classics, but this dud tries.

(Genzlinger) ‘Macbeth’ (R, 1:52) The best reason to see this slick version of the sanguineous tragedy is Michael Fassbender’s exceptionally fine title performances, though the writing isn’t bad, either.

Question: The author's believes his family could fill a team of which sport?

In our neighborhood, we were the small family, at least among the Irish and Italians. A few doors down, there were 12 kids in one house, 14 in another. We could almost field a full baseball team. But the Flynns, they could put an entire football lineup on a snowy field at Thanksgiving, with reserves. My mother agonized over what to do. She was devout, though starting to read progressive Catholic magazines like Commonweal, which published the essays of Hannah Arendt and the poetry of W.H. Auden. We loved Robert F. Kennedy’s family: 11 kids, and Ethel looks great. Bobby himself was the seventh of nine. Of course, they had money, so it looked glamorous.

A few doors down, there were 12 kids in one house, 14 in another. <hl> We could almost field a full baseball team. <hl> But the Flynns, they could put an entire football lineup on a snowy field at Thanksgiving, with reserves. My mother agonized over what to do. She was devout, though starting to read progressive Catholic magazines like Commonweal, which published the essays of Hannah Arendt and the poetry of W.H. Auden. We loved Robert F. Kennedy’s family: 11 kids, and Ethel looks great. Bobby himself was the seventh of nine. Of course, they had money, so it looked glamorous.

Question: What is Jeb Bush's wife's first name?

Ron Kaufman, who served in the first President Bush’s administration and is a longtime friend of the family, said Jeb Bush in particular was more of a serious-minded policy aficionado than a political fighter. “He’d much rather talk policy, and he’s just not a guy who’s ever been one who likes to be on the attack,” Mr. Kaufman said. In addition to his ill-fated assault on Mr. Rubio, Mr. Bush failed to fully deliver a debate salvo against Donald J. Trump that his campaign had similarly ordered up. Standing onstage in Simi Valley, Calif., Mr. Bush called on Mr. Trump to apologize for inserting Mr. Bush’s wife, Columba, who was born in Mexico, in the immigration debate. Mr. Trump called her “a lovely woman,” but refused to apologize. Nonetheless, the Bushes — a clan as competitive as it is genteel — have also proved willing to go negative when necessary, if not directly then at least by letting those in their orbit play rough. Mr. Bush’s father relied on Lee Atwater, who in a memoir nicknamed himself the “bad boy” of American politics, and his brother often delegated his unsavory tasks to Karl Rove.

Question: How much did a Republican bill in June decide to reduce Amtrak funding by?

Amtrak was created in 1971 to bring together struggling rail lines, and officials have pushed for it to become financially self-sufficient so that it no longer needs federal subsidies. That never happened. The Northeast Corridor routes, including the high-speed Acela line, make money, but not enough to cover its upkeep and make up for losses on less popular, long-haul routes in rural parts of the country that politicians from those areas have fought to keep. While President Obama is calling for $2.45 billion for Amtrak next year — about $1 billion more than the current year’s subsidy — Republicans in the House passed a bill in June to reduce spending on Amtrak by about $250 million. On Friday, Representative Mario Diaz-Balart, a Republican from Miami and chairman of a House subcommittee on transportation, said Amtrak’s operations were vital, especially along the Northeast Corridor. He said the House measure fully funded Amtrak’s safety and operational needs, although it would trim capital grants and other funding. Mr. Diaz-Balart argued that Amtrak had a “slew of internal financial issues that no level of congressional funding can fix.”

Question: On what avenue does the Tracy Mansion reside?

A principal draw of Park Slope has always been the rolling meadows and sinuous paths of Prospect Park, a masterpiece designed by Calvert Vaux and Frederick Law Olmsted. The neighborhood, home to about 60,000, stretches west from the park to the rumbling river of traffic known as Fourth Avenue, and south from Flatbush Avenue. There is no unanimity on the southern boundary. Many longtime residents define it as 15th Street; others say the vicinity of the Prospect Expressway. Spurred in part by the opening of the Brooklyn Bridge in 1883, a Gold Coast of ornate townhouses and mansions arose around Plaza Street and Prospect Park West. Some of these were later replaced by fine prewar apartment houses, but others survive. On Prospect Park West, a Romanesque Revival limestone mansion houses the Poly Prep Lower School; next door, a neo-Jacobean mansion built for a Bon Ami cleansing powder magnate is now home to the Brooklyn Society for Ethical Culture. At 105 Eighth Avenue, the neoclassical Tracy Mansion, which served for years as a Montessori school, is on the market for $13 million.

Question: Brian Cunningham is a spokes man for which Ohio department?

Many current All-Stars will be retired before the completion of a multidecade project to upgrade the Interstate 75 roadway, ramps and an outdated bridge that carries 160,000 to 170,000 vehicles daily over the Ohio River. Brian Cunningham, a spokesman for the Ohio Department of Transportation, said no new work would be started in the next few days, to try to ease congestion. The police will also close some streets near the stadium and other event sites. They urge motorists to have a plan. And patience.

Question: What two countries lead the effort to transform the way in which the selection of the secretary general is chosen?

Croatia and Namibia are leading an effort to give the organization’s 193 member states a greater say in the selection of the secretary general as part of a yearly resolution that is being drafted. New guidelines, which are still being negotiated and will be finalized by mid-September, would allow members to formally nominate applicants and vet the finalists. Until now, the five permanent members of the Security Council — Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States — have bargained behind closed doors to pick from a short list of candidates that is not formally publicized. Those who have prevailed have been palatable to those five governments, a common-denominator criterion that has the potential to doom the chances of more impressive and qualified public servants. Currently, there is not an effort underway to make the process truly democratic by allowing member states to elect the secretary general though a vote. Yet, by opening it to greater public scrutiny, the Security Council would be likely to take into account input and concerns from around the globe.

Question: Which one is the profession of Tom O'Brien?

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

Question: Who is the editor for the Globe?

The future is in flux. What is certain is that citizens value investigative work. “People don’t know of corruption unless it’s disclosed to them,” said Martin Baron, the Globe’s editor during the church investigation, now editor of The Washington Post. When they see the media bringing wrongdoing to light, he said, they often express appreciation: “If it weren’t for you, nobody would do this work.” That enduring appetite for investigative journalism may hold the key. And so, for the good of the democracy (and their own survival) news organizations, whether start-up or legacy, must make it a high priority to keep digging — with the public’s interest at heart.
