Question: How many casinos are allowed outside the New York City area?

At the meeting, Mr. Law noted that the board “never said” that two casinos in the Southern Tier-Finger Lakes region could not work. But he and the other members of the board emphasized that the new proposals had to be an improvement on the earlier projects. State legislation allows for up to four casino licenses outside of the New York City area. But in recommending only three projects for a license last month, the board warned about the possibility of cannibalizing an already crowded gambling market in the Northeast. The board could still decide not to award a license.

Question: Was there any agreement on the border control?

“There is no agreement on border control at all, and this is the weakest part,” she told reporters in Brussels during a European Union summit meeting. “It’s a very partial solution,” she added. “We already had a very bad experience of not implementing Minsk 1. We’ll see what Minsk 2 will mean.”

Question: Who did the ball deflect off of?

During that score, the referee never saw that the ball deflected from Giroud’s head onto his forearm, which possibly could have ruled out the goal. The assistant referee beside the post did play a role in the second score. After a shot by Mesut Ozil, Neuer tried to scoop the ball away from his goal, but the official correctly spotted that it had, in fact, crossed the goal line. So justice was served. Arsenal, using its rapid speed via Walcott, Alexis Sánchez and the adventurous young right back Héctor Bellerín, has found and honed a new winning tactic. It is called counterattacking, and it has been alien to Wenger’s philosophy over much of his two decades in London. You possibly could thank Wenger’s assistant, the former Arsenal defender Steve Bould, for the change.

Question: What did not have the sweetness of cooked carrots?

The appetizers were more perplexing. As a lot, they looked more interesting than they were. Seared scallops got almost no assistance from a bright orange raw-carrot sauce. It didn’t have the sweetness of cooked carrots, which might have underlined the shellfish’s own sweetness. Maybe the chefs just like the color. This seemed to be the case with a salad of pink watermelon with green needles of okra. The flavors stayed stubbornly separate, the okra contributing only its interior sliminess. Inexplicably, the chefs also spurted a gray dribble of soaked basil seeds on the plate. It was a real goo party.

Question: Who was whistled for unnecessary roughness?

That drew a second unnecessary-roughness penalty on Beckham. Two plays later, Giants running back Shane Vereen ran up the middle for 19 yards. Norman and Beckham clashed briefly at the start of the play until Norman drifted over to the area of the field where Vereen was being tackled. Beckham, who had run upfield, suddenly turned and sprinted back toward the scrum. That is when he lowered his head for the helmet-to-helmet collision, which also was whistled for unnecessary roughness. Two plays after that scuffle, Norman was penalized for unnecessary roughness.

Question: What did researchers use to cushion the ping pong ball hat on the trunk crown lizards?

Then the researchers created caps with pieces of Ping-Pong ball, and attached them with surgical glue and cork as a cushion, to the heads of the anoles to interfere with polarized light that might reach an organ in the brain called the parietal eye. Some research has shown that lizards can detect polarized light with that organ, not with their regular eyes. The team didn’t just block all light to the parietal eye, because it controls the daily rhythms of the lizard. Block it completely, Dr. Leal said, and “after a day they just stop moving.” They are normally quiet at night. If it is always night for them, they stay quiet. And how did the lizards do with the Ping-Pong ball hats? They came back. Same percentage. Same time period.

Question: What fictional character did Bill Vickery refer to Mr. Hutchinson as?

Some critics of the bill welcomed Mr. Hutchinson’s plan. Walmart, which had denounced the law, commended the governor in a brief statement, while Chad Griffin, the president of the Human Rights Campaign, who was at the Capitol on Wednesday, expressed “cautious optimism.” Proponents of the bill were less positive. In the immediate aftermath of Mr. Hutchinson’s statement, Jerry Cox, the president of the Arkansas-based Family Council, a conservative lobbing group, was more succinct: “No bill or no amendment, that’s our position right now.” Already in his young term, Mr. Hutchinson, who was previously a United States representative and a federal official, has navigated such partisan topics as Medicaid expansion and Common Core and arrived at solutions that, at least in the short term, left most people satisfied. “He’s the MacGyver of American politics,” said Bill Vickery, a lobbyist in Little Rock, referring to the television character famous for his ability to defuse bombs. The governor was flanked at the news conference by Jonathan Dismang, the president pro tem of the Senate, and Jeremy Gillam, the House speaker, both Republicans who have reputations for moderate pragmatism. Both expressed support for the governor but acknowledged the work it would take for the members of their chambers, which have Republican majorities, to go along.

Question: Who interviewed Mrs. Clinton?

Moments later, when a college student asked Mrs. Clinton to make a Snapchat video saying, “You’re fired, Donald Trump,” she demurred. “I’m not going to say that,” she said, as if to do so would cross a line. Instead, she agreed to make a lighthearted, quick video for the young man that did not mention Mr. Trump. On Thursday night, when asked about Mr. Trump in an appearance on NBC’s “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Mrs. Clinton said, “You know, I have to say, Seth. I no longer think he’s funny," adding that Mr. Trump’s latest comments had “gone way over the line.” Mrs. Clinton is not the only Democrat struggling to settle on a strategy for responding to Mr. Trump’s campaign, the unpredictable Republican race and what Mr. Trump’s appeal says about the mood of the electorate.

Question: Who is Iran's leader?

Speaking at a news conference to recognize the second anniversary of his election, Mr. Rouhani dismissed reports that Iranians would have to wait more than a few months for the lifting of sanctions, which have crippled Iran’s economy. Asked whether the wait for relief could be as long as a year, he said, “A one-year difference is totally untrue.” “It might be one month,” he added. “We are still discussing.” In the coming weeks, Iran and the world powers — the United States, Russia, France, Britain, China and Germany — will intensify talks that can lead either to a breakthrough deal on Iran’s nuclear program or a more remote possibility, the end of negotiations. In recent months, Iranian leaders have insisted that if they need more time to reach a deal, the talks should continue beyond the June 30 deadline.

Question: Why have many young feminist gone into hiding?

The detentions took place early last month on the eve of International Women’s Day as the women planned a public awareness campaign about sexual harassment on public transportation. Now, as security agents from Beijing fan out across the country hunting down the volunteers who took part in the women’s theatrical protests, many young feminists have gone into hiding. “We’re so afraid and confused,” said one of them, Xiao Meili, 26, who recently completed a 1,200-mile trek across China to draw attention to sexual violence. “We don’t understand what we did wrong to warrant such a ferocious backlash.” Despite government efforts to keep reporting of the crackdown out of the domestic news media, the jailing of the five women has not gone unnoticed here. Word has spread across college campuses, and more than 1,100 people took the risky step last week of adding their names to a petition demanding the women’s release.

Question: What presumption is greater when people think of black people?

Still, black Americans suffer disproportionate police violence. “And there is no doubt that police violence has racial dimensions, because communities of color are so much more heavily patrolled than white communities,” and because many officers — and many people generally — believe there is a greater presumption of danger with African-Americans, Mr. Cohen said.

Question: Who was the Ukrainian officer?

Capt. Andrii Syurkalo, a Ukrainian officer, said it was commendable that the trainers were willing to use the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal as an element in a class on the Geneva Conventions. American officers described the course work as equivalent to the latter months of basic training in the United States. The courses will train 705 Ukrainian soldiers at a cost of $19 million over six months. The Ukrainian National Guard is rotating from the front what units it can spare for the training. American instructors intend to recommend top performers to serve as trainers within other Ukrainian units, and in this way spread the instruction more broadly.

Question: What is the current unemployment level?

I count myself among those analysts who have described the potential benefits of wage targeting at the Fed — waiting until wages are growing considerably faster than they are today before tapping the brakes. Ms. Yellen’s stance offers a reason to explain those benefits. So here goes: The current unemployment rate is an unreliable indicator of the job market’s strength. The unemployment rate has long informed Fed policy by signaling the extent of slack in the labor market, but in recent years, it has been biased down in this regard. For example, the job market is not as tight as its current level of 5.5 percent unemployment suggests.

Question: How many eligible voters actually voted in the last election?

“Given the general malaise that faces this country’s political process right now, this is a way to get young people actually excited,” said Scott Warren, executive director of Generation Citizen. Mr. Warren cited the midterm elections last year to make his point. Nationally, only 36 percent of eligible voters participated, a 72-year low for all federal elections, according to a report by the group. Only 19.9 percent of voters ages 18 to 29 cast ballots, the lowest youth turnout rate ever recorded, the report said. Jillian Wu, a 17-year-old high school senior in San Francisco, said that granting 16- and 17-year-olds the right to vote while they were still living with their parents would encourage a habit that continued once they left the nest. Ms. Wu, who sits on Vote16USA’s 12-member youth advisory board, is working on a campaign to lower San Francisco’s voting age for local elections. She balks at claims by opponents that teenagers would just follow their parents’ political views.

Question: where  the american companies operated?

Marco Simons, a lawyer with EarthRights International, an advocacy group in Washington, said that companies were increasingly fighting back against the human rights lawyers suing them. “This is the new playbook from defendants,” said Mr. Simons, who is involved in a lawsuit against Chiquita. Citing continuing litigation, Mr. Collingsworth as well as executives of Drummond declined to be interviewed for this article.

Question: What did the author hot glue to the outside of the hoods on the sweat shirts?

One of my first big shows in Nashville, like probably six years ago, I went to a thrift store and bought all the black hooded sweatshirts I could find. Then I hot-glued silver bead strands to the outside of the hoods so when you put the hood up, the long beads dangled over your face like a mask. I did this to a huge pair of sunglasses as well that I wore. I’ve always been into visuals and visual art, but this was probably my most “out there” on stage wardrobe I ever wore. My band wouldn’t wear the ones I made for them and I don’t blame them for that.

Question: What is the name of the heroin smuggled by Denzel Washington's character Frank Lucas?

12:30 P.M. (AMC) AMERICAN GANGSTER (2007) Ridley Scott directs this Oscar-nominated crime drama set in the 1970s. Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington) is a gangster in Harlem who finds that he can get the best heroin cheap from Southeast Asia, smuggled to the United States in the coffins of American soldiers sent from Vietnam. He calls the heroin Blue Magic and takes over the market. Richie Roberts (Russell Crowe) is an obnoxiously honest New Jersey detective. When his partner (John Ortiz) dies from an overdose of Blue Magic, Richie is asked to lead a drug trafficking task force. A corrupt New York detective named Trupo (Josh Brolin) bridges the gap between the two lead characters. “You can almost feel Mr. Scott trying to coax the material away from its generic trappings toward something rarefied, something like Francis Ford Coppola’s 1972 definitive American story, ‘The Godfather,’ ” Manohla Dargis wrote in The New York Times. “He comes closest to that goal with the suggestion that the lethal pursuit of the American dream is not restricted to one or two families — the Corleones, say, or the Sopranos — but located in a network of warring tribes that help to obscure the larger war of all against all.” 7 P.M. (FX) THE AVENGERS (2012) In this film written and directed by Joss Whedon, Loki (Tom Hiddleston) makes a deal with aliens: If he gives them the Tesseract, a mythically powerful energy source, they will give him an army with which to rule Earth. Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) leads S.H.I.E.L.D., the agency that oversees the Avengers, the superhero team made up of Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.), Captain America (Chris Evans), the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo), Thor (Chris Hemsworth), Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) and Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). When Loki does as villains do and begins wreaking havoc on New York City, the Avengers must put aside their differences and save the world. “This movie revels in the individuality of its mighty, mythical characters, pinpointing insecurities that are amplified by superhuman power and catching sparks that fly when big, rough-edged egos (and alter egos) collide,” A. O. Scott wrote in The Times. “The best scenes are not the overblown, skull-assaulting action sequences — which add remarkably little that will be fresh or surprising to devotees of the “Transformers” franchise — but the moments in between, when the assembled heroes have the opportunity to brag, banter, flirt and bicker.”

Question: What political party does James E. Clyburn belong to?

The man who the police say killed nine Charleston churchgoers had not completed his background check, but he was allowed to buy a gun anyway under a so-called default proceed. Federal law permits a firearms dealer who has initiated a background check to proceed with a sale if the dealer has not been notified of violations within three business days. Representative James E. Clyburn, Democrat of South Carolina, filed legislation that would close the loophole, but Republican leaders have not acted on it.

Question: When did Mr. Ingrasselino retired?

Through the decades, Mr. Ingrasselino would respond as a police officer and chief to a number of tragedies at the crossing, where Midland Avenue intersects with New Jersey Transit tracks at a sharp angle through his Bergen County town. “It’s not even an accident waiting to happen,” said Mr. Ingrasselino, who retired in 2012. “It’s an accident that’s been happening, over and over. It’s ridiculous.” The grade crossing is, as it turns out, among the most dangerous in the country, according to a little-known metric devised by the Federal Railroad Administration called the “accident prediction value.” The measure takes into account certain physical characteristics of crossings and recent accidents.

Question: Where did the Slovenian police walk the refugees into?

“We wanted to get a visa from the embassy and travel properly, by plane. But it’s not possible,” said Latifa Shaab, a 21-year-old student from the Syrian city of Homs, who had traveled through Turkey, boarded a dinghy that landed in Greece, and made her way through Macedonia, Serbia and Croatia, hoping to reach Sweden. “From all we heard on the news, this was our last chance to reach Europe, so we left in a hurry,” she said, as she got off the first bus that pulled into Sentlij border crossing between Slovenia and Austria about midday Saturday. After a half-hour’s rest, and a meal of apples, bread, butter, jam, and chocolate milk for the children, the Slovenian police lined up a group of about 150 people and walked them into Austria, about 700 yards away.

Question: What year did the baseball players strike?

By pointing to freedom abroad, M.L.S. demonstrates that restraining salaries in a sports landscape where free agency is rampant will naturally lead those without it to push hard for it. Yet The Daily Mail has calculated that the average player salary in M.L.S. ranks 22nd among the world’s soccer leagues, a fraction of the average in top competitions like England’s Premier League and Germany’s Bundesliga. No wonder M.L.S. players want more. The question is: How far will they go to get it? The 1994 baseball players’ strike came at the expense of the World Series. The N.H.L. has locked out its players three times, once for a full season.

Question: What country economy had bottomed out?

“There is no doubt that he is a very bright and talented man,” the Russian leader said. “It is not our business to assess his merits; that is up to the U.S. voters. But he is an absolute leader of the presidential race.” In Russian, the word for “bright” has several meanings, including outstanding, brilliant and even gaudy. Beneath the pyrotechnics, Mr. Putin seemed most concerned with driving home the point to his domestic audience that Russia’s battered economy had bottomed out, an indication that Russia’s recession had his full attention. Peppered with dozens of questions, Mr. Putin lingered, as he did at last year’s session, on those that allowed him to reassure Russians that their living standards were not imperiled.

Question: What country is the base for an energy revolution?

Pope Francis is a wonderful example of how to be a truly good person.

An article on Wednesday about research suggesting that chimpanzees have the cognitive ability to cook misstated, at one point, the surname of the Harvard anthropologist who hypothesized that cooking has driven changes in human evolution. As the article correctly noted elsewhere, he is Richard Wrangham, not Wrangell. BUSINESS DAY An article on Tuesday about a decision by the airbag manufacturer Takata to continue using a chemical compound deemed dangerous by experts misstated the point at which the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began receiving complaints about rupturing Takata airbags. It was in 2001, not “almost 15 years ago.” The error was repeated in articles on Sept. 15, 2014, and on May 20, which referred to the complaints as having started in 2000, rather than 2001. • An article on May 23 about the environmental threat posed by plastic microbeads used as exfoliating agents in personal care products misstated the source of PHA, a naturally occurring plastic that one company is developing as a biodegradable substitute. It is produced by bacteria, not by mushrooms. SPORTS

Question: How much of his income does Simmons stand to lose if he says anything before he officially leaves ESPN?

But do not expect Simmons to say anything, at least about his departure, until he and ESPN are legally done with each other. Talent contracts like Simmons’s typically contain nondisparagement clauses, so if Simmons strikes out angrily before negotiating his exit — if, say, he verbally slapped Skipper or ESPN — he would forfeit about a third of his estimated $5 million salary, based on just over four months left on his contract.

Question: Where was Sita Shrestha's body found?

The daily rhythm of search and disappointment continued until last Friday. That afternoon Mr. Shrestha received a call from the police confirming what he and his family had feared. Search and rescue teams had found a woman’s body in the rubble, bruised and bloated, lying next to a handbag. Inside was a cellphone, and the police were able to download the call history and identify a phone number that it had called the most. The number was her brother’s. Summoned to Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, he and his brother-in-law were led crying into a room and shown the body. It was hers. Sita Shrestha was gone, but no longer missing.

Question: Who proposed legislation to close the firearm loophole?

Answer: James E. Clyburn

The man who the police say killed nine Charleston churchgoers had not completed his background check, but he was allowed to buy a gun anyway under a so-called default proceed. Federal law permits a firearms dealer who has initiated a background check to proceed with a sale if the dealer has not been notified of violations within three business days. <hl> Representative James E. Clyburn , Democrat of South Carolina, filed legislation that would close the loophole, but Republican leaders have not acted on it. <hl>

Question: How long did the funeral last?

The funeral, which lasted just under an hour, was the brisk culmination of a day and a half of heartbreak. Residents of Midwood cloistered in their homes and synagogues during the Sabbath, from nightfall on Friday to nightfall on Saturday, recalling a band of conscientious children they had seen rushing to synagogue and building snowmen in the yard. On Sunday the mourners emerged, following the voice of a father who was away at a religious retreat when the fire broke out. Given the Sabbath prohibition on electronic communication, he did not learn what had happened until several hours later, when Police Department detectives found him at a synagogue in Manhattan.

Question: What alternative did the 11,000 virgins forgo in choosing to become martyrs?

Watching the nation come to a screeching halt over Pope Francis’ visit, I had a flashback to my childhood in Cincinnati. One day I saw a picture of then-Pope Pius XII on the front page of the evening paper and I was shocked — Shocked! I had no idea that anybody in Ohio outside my immediate neighborhood knew who he was. In our Catholic school, the nuns stressed our isolation, and they kept prepping us to be ready to die for our faith at any moment. Like St. Ursula, who was on a pilgrimage with 11,000 virgins, all of whom instantly chose martyrdom rather than surrender their purity to infidel Huns. (At the time, I just knew virgins were women who hadn’t married, and I had a vision of throngs of young ladies being pursued by barbarians waving engagement rings.)

Question: What does Bob Gregory believe Mr. Turnbull has to do?

Proposed university overhauls, widely disliked by voters, stalled in Parliament, and a paid parental leave plan and a co-payment for visits to the doctor covered by Australia’s Medicare system were either amended or dropped by the government, which could not negotiate the passage of the legislation. Bob Gregory, a professor of economics at Australian National University, said Mr. Turnbull’s task would be largely one of communication. “What Mr. Turnbull has to do is straightforward,” Mr. Gregory said. “He’s got to explain things. You’ve no idea how powerful that is.”

Question: Who ranked third in the draft?

Yet the basic purpose of the combine did not change. It was an opportunity for teams to better predict the professional potential of a group, made up mostly of 18-year-olds, based on their body types, quickness, agility, stamina and attitude. “No player has to prove anything, because this is not a competition,” said Dan Marr, the N.H.L.’s director for central scouting, while describing the three components of the combine — medical screening, personal interviews and physical testing. Yet the environment and the personalities of the participants invite comparison, from the news media, the fans and the scouts. “They try to tell us it’s not a competition, but we’re all naturally pretty competitive, so we want to do our best,” said Noah Hanifin, a defenseman for Boston College and the player ranked third in the draft class by N.H.L. Central Scouting. “They will push us to our limits, and whatever happens, happens.”

Question: Why are PC sales going down?

PC sales are in a long decline, as customers increasingly use online services connected to mobile devices. While Microsoft and others try to revive the market with new designs and tabletlike models, in the most recent quarter worldwide PC shipments fell 10.8 percent from the year before, according to IDC. Making PC chips is still a big business, but not the way it once was. The data center group also has much higher profit margins: Operating profit from PC chips was $2.1 billion, down 20 percent from a year ago, while data center chips had an operating profit of $2.1 billion, up 9 percent. That matters, because Intel is already stressing products in networking and advanced cloud systems, to feed the profitability of cloud systems as PCs continue to wane. That means cloud computing leaders like Amazon and Google could benefit even more, and expand their online operations. Having missed much of the market for chips in mobile devices, Intel is also investing in sensors for devices connected to cloud systems.

Question: Which Campus did Holmes attend at school?

To that end, prosecutors brought in professors and classmates who described Mr. Holmes’s struggles as a first-year graduate student in the neuroscience program at the Anschutz Medical Campus of the University of Colorado. Mr. Holmes quit the program in June 2012, after he failed important oral exams, and declined the chance to retake them. Prosecutors showcased pages from a spiral notebook in which Mr. Holmes inscribed murderous fantasies and nonsensical theories about life and death, and where he plotted what kind of attack to carry out, and how and where to do it.

Question: What is the side effect of poor water management?

Willingly overlooking that fact amounts to a fundamental failure of water management that has left states more vulnerable to drought and less prepared to adapt to the effects of climate change. Moreover, it has left them blind to an honest accounting of their total supply. How can anyone plan for the future if there isn’t agreement about something as basic as how much water there actually is? In much of California and Arizona — two of the states with arguably the most severe water crises and water management challenges in the nation — state and local authorities continue to count the sources of water as if they were entirely separate, two distinct bank accounts. “States have their own take on this. Or they choose to not address it at all,” said Stanley A. Leake, a hydrologist with the United States Geological Survey who is a leading expert on properly accounting for the connection between ground and surface waters in the West. “In some cases they pretend that there is no connection.”

Question: On what day of the week was the blood drive taking place?

So it was that Mr. Heastie, the recently elected speaker of the New York State Assembly, was at a blood drive here in suburban Syracuse on Tuesday, gamely donating a pint in front of a group of somewhat perplexed phlebotomists and schedule-obsessed aides. And while donating blood — like politics itself — can make some people squeamish or faint, Mr. Heastie managed to give without passing out. “I’d rather by stabbed with a needle,” he said, “than pricked with a pin.” The stop at the Red Cross blood drive — held in the two-story lobby of Driver’s Village, a dealership north of Syracuse — was near the end of nearly a dozen stops that Mr. Heastie made at the start of a three-day visit upstate this week.
