Question: What type of education is likely to positively influence economic mobility and success?

California, rather than making another push to bring college to the masses, is taking small steps in reverse. With state funding declining, the University of California has been enrolling fewer in-state students (even as the population keeps growing) and a greater number of affluent students from other countries and states. Outside California, the educational gap between rich and poor is much wider – and not narrowing very rapidly. All the while, a college education remains the most reliable ticket to the middle class and beyond. The unemployment rate for college graduates is only 2.7 percent, and the pay gap between college graduates and everyone else is near a record high. College obviously can’t solve all of the economy’s problems, but there is a reason that nearly all families that can comfortably send their children to college do so. For families that aren’t as comfortable, some colleges are doing much more to help than others.

Question: How much does Jeremiah Meyerhoff earn?

The union will most likely not start final negotiations with either G.M. or Ford until a vote is taken on the Fiat Chrysler deal. Mr. Williams said he expected the deal to set a pattern for talks at G.M. and Ford, but left open the possibility that those companies, which are more profitable, might be asked for better economic terms. “The pattern is unique to each company,” Mr. Williams said. Earlier on Tuesday, workers at Fiat Chrysler’s sport utility vehicle plant in Detroit said they were hopeful that a deal that preserved jobs could be reached. “I’m just hoping I can keep coming back every day so I can provide and build for my family,” said Jeremiah Meyerhoff, an entry-level worker at the plant who was hired three years ago and earns about $19 an hour. Another entry-level worker, Fred Alnajjar, said he hoped the new contract included raises for all union members.

Question: Who is the author for The Folded Clock?

By Alice Gregory Doing something for 40-plus hours a week will determine a great deal of what goes on in your mind. There’s a sentiment pervasive among the people I know that one should not talk about work while socializing. Religion is not off limits, politics is not off limits, but work most definitely is. One of the greatest compliments you can pay a host of a party is to say, in an email the following day: “That was so much fun. I didn’t talk about work once.” In her recently published diary, “The Folded Clock,” the novelist Heidi Julavits writes: “I prefer to have dinner parties where nobody talks about their careers. Isn’t that the mark of a failed dinner party?” I adore Julavits’s books — this one in particular — but I completely disagree.

Question: Who is now in charge of the C.B.O?

We don’t yet know how Mr. Hall’s leadership will differ from Mr. Elmendorf’s but we do know that he will face a big challenge. House Republicans have recently changed the rules: The Congressional Budget Office and Joint Committee on Taxation are now required to use “dynamic scoring” when evaluating major changes in tax and spending policy. This is the can of worms that awaits Mr. Hall as he takes on his new job. Until now, conventional budget analysis has used a process called static scoring, which assumes that the path of gross domestic product remains the same when the government changes taxes or spending. This procedure has the virtues of simplicity and transparency.

Question: Who believed that the group died with Jerry Garcia?

“When I agreed to do Dead 50, my stipulation was, ‘That’s it,’ ” he said this week by phone from his home in Marin. Touring with the rest of the group “was a nonstarter from the beginning,” he added. “It was just understood. They were all ready before we even started rehearsals, talking about going out themselves. I’m just not into touring, and those guys are.” (Citing rehearsal obligations, the members of Dead & Company declined to comment.) Still, the anniversary shows demonstrated that the Dead’s music was still vibrant — and could find a seemingly endless audience, despite the protestations of some hard-line fans who believe the group died with its de facto frontman, Jerry Garcia.

Question: How much did the sculpture sell for, in euros?

She was joined by a sizable crew of socialites, designers, models and do-gooding stars like Dakota Johnson and Michelle Rodriguez, many of whom opened their own wallets once the bidding began. (In a Milan season largely absent major front-row star power, it was the most celebrity-fueled gathering so far.) Isabeli Fontana, the Brazilian supermodel who was called onstage to hawk a six-liter bottle of Moët & Chandon (as well as a trip to Épernay, in France’s Champagne country), was herself the winner of a 14-day vacation in the Maldives. Ms. Klum, auctioning an 11-foot-tall polyurethane snail sculpture by a collective called the Cracking Art Group, decided it must be hers. “Vito, I want the snail!” she called to Vito Schnabel, her art-dealer and -curator boyfriend. Twenty thousand euros (about $22,383) later, it was hers. Altogether, the evening raised $1.6 million.

Question: What network is still deciding on whether to renew Scream Queens?

Best Thing That Could Come of This ShowFox has yet to decide whether “Scream Queens” will be renewed — the social media following has been great, but the ratings have been soft. Throw your own opinion in the comment section, but I’ve seen enough; what was occasionally cute and witty once would be hard-pressed to be either a second time. I do, however, want to see a spinoff show, “The Radwells Plus Eight.” In the second hour Tuesday we saw the overprivileged Chad and the daffy Denise, who had become lovers, decide to break up. These two were the best thing about this show; give them eight kids and put them in a sitcom.

Question: Is Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo a Democrat or Republican?

Mr. Faulkner, who served on a task force on police relations under Mayor Giuliani, faulted Mr. de Blasio for failing to reassure police officers that he “has their back,” and for alienating the business community. Mr. Faulkner pledged that he would get along better with Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who is a Democrat, than Mr. de Blasio has. The two Democratic leaders have clashed, with increasingly open hostility. “This governor has been pretty independent of his party,” Mr. Faulkner said. “I have no doubt that I will have a much better relationship, a working relationship, with this governor.” And if Mr. Faulkner were to advance to a debate with Mr. de Blasio, he would at least be able to challenge the mayor eye-to-eye: At 6-foot-4, Mr. Faulkner is, at most, only one or two inches shorter than Mr. de Blasio.

Question: What did critics allege about the way the prosecutor presented evidence?

“I could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure all lives matter,” the prosecutor said. In the aftermath of the grand jury decision, critics said that Mr. McCulloch and his assistants had presented evidence in ways that favored the police officer, Darren Wilson, and cast doubt on the victim, Michael Brown. On Friday, Mr. McCulloch devoted much of his talk to rebutting such criticism, which included that he gave incorrect instructions to the grand jury and that his assistants were not tough enough in their questioning of witnesses who supported Officer Wilson’s version of events.

Question: Mr. Carson was invited to what last spring?

More recently, however, Mr. Carson made clear that he would always defend his Adventist beliefs against skeptics. “I’m proud of the fact that I believe what God has said, and I’ve said many times that I’ll defend it before anyone,” Mr. Carson told the Adventist Report in 2013. “If they want to criticize the fact that I believe in a literal six-day creation, let’s have at it, because I will poke all kinds of holes in what they believe.” For theological reasons, Adventism has faced tensions with the Roman Catholic and Baptist Churches over the years. Last spring, Mr. Carson was invited to speak at a Southern Baptist Pastors’ Conference in Ohio, but he faced opposition because of his beliefs and eventually backed out. “Dr. Carson is a Seventh-day Adventist,” a group of pastors from the Baptist organization B21 wrote in protest of his visit. “Their official theology denies the doctrine of hell in favor of annihilation,” they wrote, “and believes that those who worship on Sunday will bear the ‘mark of the beast.’ ” The church has also had a strongly anti-Catholic strain, and when Mr. Carson decided to attend Pope Francis’ visit to Congress last month, Adventist message boards lit up with questions about his presence with the pontiff. Some questioned his referring to the pope as the “Holy Leader” and wondered, “How do such words come from the mouth of a Seventh-day Adventist?”

Question: Who did the Bengals play against last week?

The Chiefs’ secondary has had a hard time defending the pass, which makes a trip to Cincinnati to go against the Bengals’ thriving offense a case of unfortunate timing. Last week, Bengals wide receiver A. J. Green humiliated Baltimore with 227 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Sean Smith will be back from a suspension and will do his best against Green, but with Phillip Gaines out with a knee injury, Cincinnati’s offense may be off to the races. PICK: BENGALS Cowboys (2-1) at Saints (0-3) 8:30 p.m. Line: Even The Saints’ offense performed reasonably well with Drew Brees sidelined last week, but frustration continued as the team remained winless and finished the week three games behind two teams in its division. Brees has expressed optimism that he will be back this week, but how his shoulder woes could affect his ability to stretch the field is unknown.

Question: Article to the article, the flourish of Obama's presidency must match in order for him to make the United States match his vision?

So, to the end game, in Idaho, Kansas and beyond. “It’s amazing what you can bounce back from when you have to,” Obama said on Tuesday. He was quoting from a Minneapolis woman, invited to the speech, but it sounded like a motto for his last two years in office. The president is playing for a legacy. He won’t get much of it this year, or even next. But eventually, if Obama’s finish matches the flourish of the last two months, the United States will resemble the country he envisioned on Tuesday night. Long odds make for better endings.

Question: What day of the week was the reviewed performance on?

Veronika Part, a Lilac Fairy of long experience, now radiates the mature generosity that this part is all about; on Thursday evening, her performance was the most wonderful thing in the whole ballet. Marcelo Gomes, who as Prince Désiré delivers the taxing intricacies of his solo variation at the peak of an exemplary account of the role, also performs as the evil fairy, Carabosse, with splendidly venomous force. Cory Stearns, whose nobility has become nuanced by humor, reflectiveness and poignancy, takes the character of Désiré through a true journey.

Question: At what age did Mr. Huang join the army?

The villages’ Chinese heritage has been played up in recent years as locals seek to cater to a small but growing number of tourists, mostly Thai, who come seeking cool weather, Chinese food and locally grown oolong tea. Huang Jiada, who joined the Kuomintang during the Cold War after his family had fled to Myanmar, has been leading the effort to preserve Ban Rak Thai’s unique history. On a recent crisp afternoon, Mr. Huang, 53, hopped on his motorbike and sped up a bumpy dirt path to the top of a hill. At the peak was a sparse, one-room museum that he built with funds from the Thai government to commemorate the Kuomintang Army. Inside, recent photos of elderly veterans wearing oversize military fatigues were displayed alongside hand-drawn maps of battle routes and older photos that showed young, gun-wielding soldiers marching under the army’s red, white and blue flag. Mr. Huang pointed to a portrait of a heavyset man wearing rumpled clothes and an orange beanie. “This is the man who conscripted me into the army in Myanmar when I was 11,” Mr. Huang said, speaking in southern-inflected Mandarin. “He couldn’t read or write, but he could certainly fight and kill.”

Question: Why was Brandon Tate-Brown initially stopped by police?

In Philadelphia, where officers have fired at suspects at a rate of nearly once each week during the past eight years and where the city has paid out millions of dollars to victims of police brutality, residents have strongly called for officers to be equipped with body cameras. Activists like Ms. Williams say they fear that much of the video will never be seen publicly. They point to the department’s refusal to publicly release surveillance camera footage of the death of Brandon Tate-Brown, 26, who was shot by the police in December after being stopped for driving with his headlights off.

Question: Who would receive generous tax breaks?

The plan envisions enlisting private “master developers” who would front the money to buy the necessary land, move existing owners and prepare these two sites. As an incentive, the developers would receive highly generous tax breaks for new construction after the Games. Those tax breaks would be negotiated with the city, but the report suggested that the developer might pay just 15 percent of real estate taxes for the first decade. “This could be the largest economic development opportunity in our lifetime, in my lifetime, in Boston,” Steve Pagliuca, co-owner of the Boston Celtics and chairman of Boston 2024, said in presenting the plan.

Question: Parasites infest raw and undercooked what?

A. It can if the food gets cold enough and stays that way long enough, according to guidelines for the food industry from the Food and Drug Administration.

Question: What is the Mets average home attendance per game?

(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: Who was the perfect mate for John Delahunt?

⬥ “I’d be delighted,” replies John Delahunt, a student at Trinity College, when the young socialite Helen Stokes asks him to accompany her to a hanging. That colorful street entertainment is one of many striking set pieces in THE CONVICTIONS OF JOHN DELAHUNT (Pegasus, $24.95), a remarkable first novel that Andrew Hughes has set in 1840s Dublin and based on crimes of that period. The lovely Helen seems the perfect mate for Delahunt, who was executed, for killing a little boy, in full view of a mob of 10,000 souls in 1842. Hughes challenges historical accounts of Delahunt’s infamous career with an incisive portrait of an impoverished scholar lured into becoming a paid police informant. Urged by his corrupt handlers to bring them murderers (the big money is always in murder), he starts framing innocent people and then, in desperation, begins committing crimes himself. At once a close character study and a sweeping panorama of the era of “dissectionists” who buy bodies for medical research and the “resurrectionists” who dig them up, this fascinating book is a stirring work of fiction and a perceptive chapter in Ireland’s social history. ⬥

Question: on what date does the 421-a housing program end?

“We’re going to support it, including the mansion tax,” said Steven Spinola, president of the real estate board. “We’re not happy about everything, but we think it will lead to building more affordable housing.” Mr. de Blasio has also been outspoken on another contentious affordable-housing issue — the need to strengthen rent regulations to preserve the city’s existing affordable-housing stock. His proposals still face a battle in Albany, which has been thrown into turmoil in recent months by the arrest on corruption-related charges of Sheldon Silver, a Democratic assemblyman and former speaker, and Dean G. Skelos, the Republican majority leader in the Senate. Both the 44-year-old 421-a housing program and the rent stabilization law, which governs rents for one million apartments in New York City, are set to expire on June 15.

Question: Who did Rousey lose to?

It was Ronda Rousey’s Buster Douglas moment. Those who watched it were stunned. Those who read about it the next morning did a double take. And more than a few people were wondering where it leaves her career. In 1990, Mike Tyson was also unbeaten and had the same aura of invincibility as Rousey. Like her, he put opponents away rapidly and with ease. But on Feb. 10 in Tokyo, he faced the little-known Douglas as a 40-1 favorite and was knocked out in one of sports’ biggest upsets. Rousey’s fight also took place on the other side of the world, on Sunday in Melbourne, Australia, and the result was also shocking. Holly Holm, ranked just eighth in their weight class and underwhelming in her two previous Ultimate Fighting Championship bouts, knocked Rousey out in the second round.

Question: In what year did the multiple organizations come together to form a mediation group?

For a while, Tunisia had seemed headed for the same fate. An Islamist government elected after the ouster of President Zine el-Abidine Ben Ali tried to push through a repressive constitution; there were street clashes and assassinations. In the summer of 2013, four organizations — the Tunisian General Labor Union, the Tunisian Confederation of Industry, Trade and Handicrafts, the Tunisian Human Rights League and the Tunisian Order of Lawyers — came together as the National Dialogue Quartet and mediated the formation of an interim government that would lead the country to new elections.

Question: What do some soldiers forget on their first day of excercise

In the first two weeks of training, the Americans found the Ukrainians’ soldierly skills lacking, and the group generally in need of instruction. “I came into it expecting them not to know much of the basics,” said Sgt. Michael Faranda, who is teaching maneuvers. He was correct. Things “every soldier should know,” he said, they did not. Some even forgot their helmets on the first day of exercises. Still, Sergeant Faranda said, the Ukrainians’ willingness to go into combat was all the more notable for their lack of preparation for it.

Question: What is the author's name?

As he tells it in his book “Roads of Excess, Palaces of Wisdom,” something happened one evening: “Although my body was asleep, resting almost anesthetized on its back, not unlike a corpse, consciousness was lucid and clear, fully awake.

He takes it to be capable of more, to be real in a more complicated way.

Question: Is senator Benjamin L. Cardin a democrat or republican?

WASHINGTON —  Senator Benjamin L. Cardin, the senior Democrat on the Foreign Relations Committee and a prominent Jewish voice in Congress, said on Friday that he would oppose the Iran nuclear deal, increasing the chance that President Obama will have to use a veto to prevent it from being scuttled. While the president has been working to gain enough support to block a vote on a resolution to disapprove the deal and thus avoid a diplomatic embarrassment, Mr. Cardin’s announcement puts opponents close to securing enough votes to overcome any filibuster. Senator Mitch McConnell, the majority leader, said on Friday that it would be “outrageous” for Democrats to prevent a vote.

Question: What three Republican senators have vowed to oppose any legislation relating to climate change?

Trump calls climate change “a total hoax.” He arrived at this position, judging by several tweets, after experiencing a couple of especially cold winter days in New York. This is a man who has bought into every nutty conspiracy theory, and stoked much of the same, about President Obama’s birth — all without a shred of evidence. But he won’t take the world’s leading scientists at their peer-reviewed word. If this is the kind of judgment you want in the Oval Office, get thee to Trump Tower. And here’s Carson: “I’ll tell you what I think about climate change,” he said earlier this year. “The temperature is either going up or down at any point in time, so it really is not a big deal.” Ah, well. He also believes the pyramids of Egypt were built to store grain rather than as tombs for kings and queens. Hey, it’s all there in the Bible, Carson says, for you fact-obsessed archaeologists. How do you explain the boastful ignorance of other leading Republican candidates? It’s a political variant of Upton Sinclair’s line about how “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.” In trying to win the support of the Koch brothers, Senators Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Rand Paul have signed a pledge to do the bidding of the billionaire oil industrialists, promising to “oppose any legislation relating to climate change” that would involve higher taxes or fees. Cruz has gone the extra step of denying the very existence of climate change, an assertion that puts him at odds with three-fourths of the American public. Just pause for a second to soak in the magnitude of this sellout by these candidates to a pair of men who’ve vowed to spend $889 million influencing the 2016 election.

This is a man who has bought into every nutty conspiracy theory, and stoked much of the same, about President Obama’s birth — all without a shred of evidence. But he won’t take the world’s leading scientists at their peer-reviewed word. If this is the kind of judgment you want in the Oval Office, get thee to Trump Tower. And here’s Carson: “I’ll tell you what I think about climate change,” he said earlier this year. “The temperature is either going up or down at any point in time, so it really is not a big deal.” Ah, well. He also believes the pyramids of Egypt were built to store grain rather than as tombs for kings and queens. Hey, it’s all there in the Bible, Carson says, for you fact-obsessed archaeologists. How do you explain the boastful ignorance of other leading Republican candidates? It’s a political variant of Upton Sinclair’s line about how “It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it.” <hl> In trying to win the support of the Koch brothers, Senators Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and Rand Paul have signed a pledge to do the bidding of the billionaire oil industrialists, promising to “oppose any legislation relating to climate change” that would involve higher taxes or fees. <hl> Cruz has gone the extra step of denying the very existence of climate change, an assertion that puts him at odds with three-fourths of the American public. Just pause for a second to soak in the magnitude of this sellout by these candidates to a pair of men who’ve vowed to spend $889 million influencing the 2016 election.

Question: Who did not call the uniformed police?

Mr. Arlia argues that someone else made that hole and that the detective, who maintains he had no idea who was actually in the Range Rover, assumed it had been broken by a projectile from inside the car. “He actually thought it was an attack from within and he reacted,” Mr. Arlia argued. “He never had any purposeful intent to cause harm.” Mr. Steinglass pointed out in his opening that Detective Braszczok never intervened when he saw Mr. Lien assaulted, nor did he call the uniformed police. According to a witness at a pretrial hearing, the detective waited two days before telling the Police Department that he had been involved in the attack, a decision his lawyer attributed to his fear that he would be fired. Three hours after the assault, Mr. Steinglass pointed out, Detective Braszczok sent two texts to colleagues in the Police Department, one saying the biker tour was “mayhem” and another stating “it was fun.”

Question: Who were referred to as little green men?

The training aims to remold the Ukrainian units by increasing the responsibilities of noncommissioned officers, fixing a Soviet legacy of an officer-heavy infantry. Without sergeants paying attention, basic mistakes were being made, the trainers said. Capt. Nicholas Salimbene, an American trainer, noticed with alarm that the Ukrainians were carrying their rifles with the safeties off. “It’s about the professionalism of the force,” he said. “We want them to look like soldiers.” “You see reports about the little green men,” he said, referring to the Russian soldiers who invaded the Crimean Peninsula last year in unmarked uniforms, “and they all walk around professionally, and carry their weapons professionally.” The Ukrainians should, too, Captain Salimbene said. The United States is also providing advanced courses for military professionals known as forward observers — the ones who call in targets — to improve the accuracy of artillery fire, making it more lethal for the enemy and less so for civilians. Oleksandr I. Leshchenko, the deputy director for training in the National Guard, was somewhat skeptical about the value of the training, saying that “99 percent” of the men in the course had already been in combat.

Question: When did Mike Huckabee first run for president?

HOPE, Ark. —  Mike Huckabee, who excited evangelical voters in his first presidential race in 2008 and retains much of their good will, announced on Tuesday that he would again seek the Republican nomination despite a crowded field of rivals for his natural base in the party. A former Southern Baptist pastor and Arkansas governor, Mr. Huckabee is returning in hopes of once more dominating among social conservatives, but he is acutely aware he needs broader support to avoid the snares of last time, when he ran dry of money and failed to appeal much beyond the South. After describing a childhood of school prayer, fishing for catfish and running for student council in Hope, Mr. Huckabee said, “So it seems perfectly fitting that it would be here that I announce I am a candidate for president of the United States.”

Question: What other person did Cruz speak harshly about?

Cruz then grabbed the ball, skewering Clinton more sharply and showing that he could out-eloquent Rubio and out-nasty anyone. Has a young politician ever managed to be so impressive and so repulsive all at once? That’s the fascination of Cruz, and the most fun Tuesday night was his stumble on the very ground that tripped up Rick Perry four years ago. During a debate back then, Perry said he wanted to eliminate three federal departments or agencies and could name only two. Cruz said he wanted to eliminate five and named the Commerce Department twice.

Question: Where has the robot returned to the research?

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: What was the ad "Bill de Blasio, Mayor" promoting?

Steward Johnson, 25, a consultant who lives in Midtown Manhattan, was more concerned with the name appearing alongside the image: “Bill de Blasio, Mayor.” The ad promoted the city’s “Made in NY” effort supporting local film production. “It probably isn’t smart for the mayor to have his name plastered on an advertisement such as this,” Mr. Johnson said with a laugh. In another car, there were ads in English and Spanish for free “Kyng” size condoms from the city’s health department, part of a continuing public service campaign to promote safe sex. Mr. Rachmany of Dumbo Moving argues that those ads are more explicit than his because they refer directly to sex.

Question: How many ER visits in Mississippi were caused by synthetic cannabinoids in April?

Still, about one in 20 high school students used the drugs in 2014; about one in 30 adults age 19 to 28 used them in 2013, the most recent data available for that age group.

Question: What is the name of the mayor that appointed her to the Dept of Emergency Management?

In the Sheriff’s Department, she became the youngest captain in 1983, and, in 1997, was promoted to chief deputy. This was her first run for political office. Ms. Hennessy said that she did not see herself as an activist like Mr. Mirkarimi, but as more of an executive and administrator. “I’m open to ideas,” she said. “I don’t have to be the one to come up with them.” In 2008, she was appointed by Mayor Gavin Newsom, now the lieutenant governor of California, to be the director of the San Francisco Department of Emergency Management, overseeing emergency response teams for the Police and Fire Departments. And in 2012, she was appointed interim sheriff when Mr. Mirkarimi was suspended after a domestic dispute with his wife. This summer Mr. Mirkarimi announced that the department would allow transgender prisoners to be housed in jail according to the gender with which they identify. This caused consternation among deputies who said that they had not had enough involvement in determining how the policy would work.

Question: The new Penn & Teller show is in previews where?

“The idea is to allow people to be swept up into a shared mood in a live performance” without disruption, said Graham Dugoni, Yondr’s founder. Some theaters wonder whether embracing the enemy is the shrewder way to go. Several performing arts organizations, including some in the classical music world, have designated “tweet seats” where use of social media during selected performances is encouraged. At the beginning of their new Broadway show, now in previews, the magicians Penn & Teller invite the audience to turn on their cellphones as part of a magic trick.
