Question: Who was Ed Siever to Cobb?

Cobb once beat up a teammate, the pitcher Ed Siever, continuing to punch him after he was probably already unconscious and then kicking him in the face. He went into the stands and severely assaulted a heckler who was missing seven fingers, having lost them in a workplace accident, even as surrounding spectators yelled, “He has no hands!” And consider: These incidents are recounted in Charles Leerhsen’s new biography, “Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty,” a book largely intended to rehabilitate its subject’s reputation. In writing this combination early-baseball history and legal brief, Leerhsen, a onetime editor at Sports Illustrated, has chosen a formidable reclamation project. Cobb’s image is not a fixer-upper; it’s a Superfund site.

Question: What country has a right to exist?

Asked on Friday about Mr. Netanyahu’s new demand, a State Department spokeswoman, Marie Harf, told reporters in Washington that the negotiations with Iran on the agreement were “only about the nuclear issue.” In the Palestinian arena, Mr. Netanyahu has demanded not only the recognition of Israel’s right to exist – something the leadership has already done — but recognition that Israel is the nation-state of the Jewish people. Without that recognition, the prime minister argues, any peace deal would not necessarily portend the end of the long-running conflict. Mr. Netanyahu’s statement on the Iran deal was his lengthiest and most detailed of the past week.

Question: Who hosted the hockey complex?

BUFFALO —  They were pushed, prodded, measured, weighed and otherwise subjected to a kind of scrutiny familiar to anyone who has inspected produce before buying. But in this case, the commodities were teenagers, the top draft-eligible hockey prospects in the world, who last week were examined and tested — physically and mentally — at the 2015 N.H.L. scouting combine here at HarborCenter, part of a two-rink hockey complex completed in 2014 by the host Sabres. For the first time in its history, the combine moved from the Toronto area, where it had been held the last several years in a crowded ballroom in Mississauga, Ontario. There were other changes, too. Physical testing took place over two days, Friday and Saturday, instead of one. And new tests were added, all designed to mimic skills better suited for hockey.

Question: How long did it take to sell the first 12,000 copies?

Proust For The People: Almost 100 years after his death, Marcel Proust has finally cracked the best-seller list. Sort of. The French artist Stéphane Heuet’s illustrated interpretation of “Swann’s Way,” the first volume of Proust’s sprawling semiautobiographical novel “In Search of Lost Time,” is at No. 5 in its seventh week on the graphic novel hardcover list. Heuet has been adapting the book since 1988, when the first installment was published in France — to violent dismay. Le Figaro called the project “blasphemous” and “catastrophic,” with the critic Hervé de Saint-Hilaire taking special exception to the depiction of the young Marcel (“a formless little boy with idiotic eyes’’). Heuet defended himself, telling The New York Times: “Proust has been kept in a ghetto of snobs as a sort of precious gold and diamond object. For me, any effort to democratize Proust is valid.” And, as it happens, lucrative. Despite the negative reviews, the first printing of 12,000 copies sold out in three weeks. Of course, comics play a surprisingly large and vital role in French publishing. According to Publishers Weekly, graphic novel sales in France have been put at about $458 million, and they make up about 12.5 percent of all books published, compared with about 3 percent in America. And critics should have no cause for concern; Heuet and Arthur Goldhammer, the book’s translator, envision it as a tantalizing introduction to “In Search of Lost Time” — not a substitute for the real thing. “Stéphane Heuet and I have tried to preserve the ‘flavor’ of Proust . . . his ‘fragrance’ — as un menu de dégustation, or tasting menu, tries to give a full sampling of the dishes in the repertoire of a great chef,” Goldhammer writes in the preface. “Those who find the taste to their liking will want to return often to savor fuller portions.”

Question: What was the number of casualties?

Laxman Lal Karna, a Madhesi political leader, said talks would not progress unless a curfew in parts of the southern plains was lifted and soldiers, who have been patrolling some of towns, returned to their barracks. In the past month, at least 36 people have been killed in protests over the draft constitution, including 11 police officers and a 2-year-old child. Schools, workplaces and shops have been shut for nearly a month in many of the southern districts.

Question: Which political party does Rep. Ryan represent?

WASHINGTON — Last week, as members of Congress did the things they do during recess — drink merlot at fund-raisers, zip to fact-finding missions abroad, meet with local chambers of commerce — Representative Paul D.

In his lengthy enumeration of conditions for taking on the role of House speaker, Mr. Ryan made it clear to his Republican colleagues Tuesday night that one was sacrosanct: “I cannot and will not give up my family time.”

Question: what was the ventral banks target inflation for November?

FRANKFURT — A strong indication on Friday that the European Central Bank is on the verge of aggressive action to stimulate the economy, just as the Federal Reserve is dialing back its stimulus, helped push the euro to its lowest level against the dollar since 2010. Mario Draghi, the president of the European Central Bank, said in an interview published in the German newspaper Handelsblatt that the risk that the central bank would not be able to meet its main task of keeping inflation from being too low or too high was greater than it had been six months ago. At 0.3 percent in November, inflation in the eurozone was far below the central bank’s official target of close to 2 percent. Investors interpreted Mr. Draghi’s comments to mean that the central bank is moving closer to broad-based purchases of government bonds, the same kind of “quantitative easing” that the Fed used to push down market interest rates in the United States — and is phasing out as growth picks up.

Question: Who filed the antitrust case?

The antitrust case against Google filed by European Union regulators on Wednesday will inevitably draw comparisons to the long-running prosecution of Microsoft, in which regulators on both sides of the Atlantic pursued the software giant for anticompetitive behavior. But Margrethe Vestager, the European Union’s competition commissioner, may not find the comparison entirely flattering. With more than a decade of hindsight, the theories supporting the case against Microsoft have all but fallen apart, and the pursuit of the company that makes Windows may suggest a reason for skepticism about this fight against Google: The tech marketplace is fluid and unpredictable. The giants that look most unbeatable today could falter in ways that may once have seemed unthinkable — and without a lot of help from the government.

Question: When did Dr. Shatz die?

Nobody knows how many people read the December 1964 issue of the journal Archives of Internal Medicine, but apparently only one, Dr. Irwin Schatz, was so appalled by one of its articles, about a syphilis experiment using uneducated black men in Tuskegee, Ala., that he wrote the study’s author to protest. “I couldn’t believe what I had read,” Dr. Schatz, who died on April 1, wrote in an email in 2013 to Civil Beat, an online newsletter in Hawaii, where he had moved to teach. “But the message was unmistakable.”

Question: What is the primary reason for the existence of new drugs?

Profits made during their period of market exclusivity are, in large part, why new drugs exist, though an argument could be made that the rewards far outstrip development costs. Nevertheless, few companies will sink hundreds of millions of dollars into even a potentially lifesaving idea without the promise of a return on investment, nor should we reasonably expect them to. That’s why we provide patents for good ideas (and, yes, some not-so-good ideas, too). Except sometimes we don’t. By law, patents can be denied for ideas that may be good, but are not novel or are obvious. This sounds completely sensible, until you think through the consequences. It means that even potentially great drugs might not come to market because they were disclosed in the past — so they’re now not novel — or because they are a natural extension of existing knowledge — so they’re now obvious.

Question: Did the perpetrator survive the attack?

Four more attacks were reported on Thursday. A Palestinian gunman drove up to an Israeli military checkpoint in the West Bank and opened fire on the soldiers there, according to the military.

Hours later, in Jerusalem, an Israeli police officer was stabbed by a Palestinian resident of the West Bank, the authorities said. A Palestinian doctor from a nearby clinic gave first aid. Police officers at the scene fatally shot the assailant. At night, a gunman fired at an Israeli vehicle near a West Bank settlement, causing no injuries. And two Palestinians stabbed a soldier in Hebron and were subsequently killed.

Question: What are some examples Mr. Sacca gives as to why he thinks the computer science students are 'unidimensional'?

“What I worry about is how unidimensional computer science students have become as a result of the rigor of the curriculum,” Mr. Sacca said. “They don’t get to study abroad. They don’t have summer jobs. They don’t wait on tables — what you get is a 23-year-old engineer at Google yelling at a chef because they ran out of pheasant that day. They don’t understand how people get by in the developing worlds. They don’t know anyone trying to make payday loan payments. I really worry about how homogeneous our culture is getting in Silicon Valley because of the lack of experience.” Some Silicon Valley chiefs are trying to steer the culture from the top. Netflix’s chief executive and one of its founders, Reed Hastings, says he takes six weeks of vacation a year and hopes the company’s leave policies will inspire loyalty and trust with his workers. The company, which has long had unlimited vacation for employees, recently introduced unlimited parental leave.

Question: Who was Mr. Sweat's partner in the escape?

Like many who followed the prison break, Mr. Sweat and Mr. Matt could not help but compare their efforts to the escape in “The Shawshank Redemption.” Indeed, Mr. Sweat told investigators that he and Mr. Matt had joked that while it had taken Andy Dufresne, the character in the movie played by Tim Robbins, 20 years to escape, it would take them only 10 years.

Question: What is the name of one of four same-sex marriage suits to be heard by the Supreme Court?

“It is perverse,” the Chadbourne & Parke brief said, “for the government to grant leave to enable a same-sex couple to travel to a state where they can legally marry, for the government to recognize that marriage as valid for however many more years the service member continues to serve, and then suddenly ignore that marriage as soon as the service member retires and obtains veteran’s status.” A federal appeals court in Washington is considering a challenge to that interpretation, but the Supreme Court’s decision in the four same-sex marriage cases to be argued next week, among them Obergefell v. Hodges, No. 14-556, may make the challenge moot.

Question: When is the deal expected to close?

The deal is subject to the approval of Kythera shareholders and regulators, and it is expected to close in the third quarter. Kythera, which is based in Westlake Village, Calif., was founded in 2005 and is focused on the aesthetic medicine market, including its treatment for submental fullness, also known as double chin. The company has not generated revenue from product sales so far, but it has done so through licensing agreements. It reported a net loss of $135.6 million in 2014. Allergan, which is based in Dublin and has its United States headquarters in Parsippany, N.J., is a pharmaceutical company that provides treatments in dermatology, aesthetics, eye care and for cardiovascular disease. The company posted revenue of $13.1 billion in 2014. JPMorgan Chase and the law firm Covington & Burling LLP advised Allergan, and Goldman Sachs and the law firm Latham & Watkins advised Kythera.

Question: Who fears that a funeral will turn rowdy or violent?

Reuters reported that a relative said the family was refusing to receive the body because Israeli authorities had limited the number of people allowed at the burial. The measure is often imposed by Israel at the funerals of Palestinian militants in Jerusalem and when security officials fear that a funeral will turn rowdy or violent.

Question: How much was Mr. Rodman expecting from the housing deal in Haiti if it went through?

The Clinton Foundation said in its statement that aside from supporting a housing exposition in Haiti, it had not been directly involved with any housing projects. The foundation also said Mr. Rodham’s project had not been among the more than 300 submitted for consideration at the expo. Mr. Rodham projected that he could make $1 million on the Haiti deal if it came to pass — enough money, he said in his court testimony, to take his family to Disney World and cover his debts, including his legal bills and his long overdue federal taxes. Mr. Rodham eventually settled his bill with his former lawyer, Gwendolyn Jo M. Carlberg. Ms. Carlberg said in a phone interview that, despite her lawsuit, she did not have a negative view of Mr. Rodham. “I found a lot of good in Tony,” she said.

Question: Who was angry?

“I am angry,” Mr. Michel said, according to Belgian news reports. “We did not give a mandate to either France or Germany to negotiate.” But Mr. Stubb of Finland, which also uses the euro, said he was happy to let Ms. Merkel and Mr. Hollande face down Mr. Tsipras late into the night, noting that “there is always a lot of mayhem around these meetings.”

Question: What position does David Alaba play?

That is not even half the question of what Bayern needs to know. The team against Barcelona was gutted by injuries, most importantly to its flying wingers, Arjen Robben and Franck Ribéry. But it was also without the key defenders David Alaba and Holger Badstuber, and aches and fatigue also affected some who did play, like Xabi Alonso, Philipp Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger. The Germans among those players deny themselves the excuse that the Champions League semifinals they lost last year and this year sandwiched an event that was just as important to them, and arguably more so: the 2014 World Cup. Age is becoming a factor to the German club, too. Six from the Bavarian team — which peaked two years ago when it won the treble of the Champions League, the Bundesliga and the German Cup in the same season — are now over 30. That need not be a terminal age for a player today, thanks to improved medical and dietary care and rosters that are large enough to rotate star players. However, Ribéry and Robben may never again reach the peak they did in 2013 under Jupp Heynckes’s final season as coach. Ribéry is 32 now and Robben is 31. Alonso is 33, Lahm 31, and dear old Schweinsteiger, though only just 30, looks what he is — a ferocious competitor who has pushed himself through countless knocks and strains while playing for both club and country.

Question: What is Pierre-Paul's first name?

“We actually saw tape that showed him working. He’s done a lot of conditioning-type work. So I don’t think there’s anything to worry about there. We’ll monitor that.” But in the end, an impasse remained. No date for Pierre-Paul to rejoin the team. No contract. No timetable of any kind. The season begins Sunday night. “Nothing’s changed,” Coughlin said. “We’ve taken this path and we’re on it, and we’ll stay on it. Hopefully at some point in time, Jason will be ready to play, and we’ll get the green light. If that doesn’t happen, we’ll stay where we are.” The rest is up to Pierre-Paul, the Giants’ doctors and the team’s trainers.

Question: With PEPS, the car can not be locked if what happens?

That’s because customers are purchasing cars with so-called PEPS, or Passive Entry, Passive Start capabilities. Rather than needing to pull out a key from one’s pocket or purse, the key sends a signal to the car that it’s nearby, and the car creates a digital “handshake” with the authorized key. Touching the door’s handle unlocks it, and the car is started by pushing a button. The car cannot be locked if the key is left in the car. “This type of key is a huge convenience for drivers,” said Jeff J. Owens, chief technology officer for Delphi, another supplier of automotive systems. “A watch or phone used instead must offer more than today’s key.” In some ways, they offer less, by increasing the complexity of operating a vehicle. In Tesla’s case, one needs to open the app and then enter a PIN to start the car or unlock the doors. Using the Internet to transfer vehicle starting or unlocking information, while useful in an emergency, “is not a viable way forward,” said David Green, market development director at Volvo.

Question: What is changing the world quickly?

In the recent interview, Mr. Singhal illustrated the evolution of Google’s search business by taking out his phone and asking questions about things like music and trivia.  At one point he asked the phone about Rihanna to show off the company’s voice technology and demonstrate how mobile search results come with tappable actions such as the ability to play Rihanna music. A moment later, in what appeared to be a well-practiced demonstration, he asked the phone, “Which person was struck by lightning seven times and survived?” A robotic voice answered, “Roy Sullivan.” “Kids love questions like this,” he said. Mr. Singhal said that while mobile phones are changing the world quickly, people still want and need many of the same things, whether they are in apps or on the web. A good deal of time is still spent shopping for jeans or looking for a new place to eat lunch.

Question: Who is married to the choreographer?

Question: Christopher R. Heanue called the child what?

The city’s population of children in foster care hit its peak in the early 1990s, amid a crack epidemic, topping 49,000 in December 1991. Since then, the numbers have steadily declined, in part because of a shift in strategy that seeks to keep families unified as long as possible while addressing underlying problems in the household. On Sunday, officials from the children’s services agency addressed the Holy Child Jesus congregation at a Spanish-language morning Mass and at an English-language midday Mass. The appearance of the baby last month was celebrated in the parish as a message of hope. Some have taken to calling the boy Emmanuel. The Rev. Christopher R. Heanue, a parochial vicar at the church, has nicknamed him John the Baptist. During one of the Sunday services, the church’s pastor, Bishop Octavio Cisneros, referred to the baby as “our little one.” “I would like to express our gratitude to you in person for taking care of the baby that was found here Thanksgiving week, the start of this very special time of the year,” Ms. McKnight told congregants at the midday Mass. The baby, she reported, was “thriving” in his foster home. “But,” she said, “this little one has come to represent something greater.” She then introduced the agency’s “call to action” on adoption. After the services, Bishop Cisneros said he was hopeful about the campaign.

Question: The F.D.A does not recommend these techniques if the fish is thicker than what?

In general, killing parasites requires freezing and storing fish at a surrounding temperature of minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for seven days; or freezing at a surrounding temperature of minus 31 degrees or colder until the fish is solid and storing at the same temperature for 15 hours; or freezing at a surrounding temperature of minus 31 degrees until the fish is solid and storing at minus 4 degrees or below for 24 hours. Not all home refrigerator freezers get cold enough. To be sure that your freezer will work for controlling parasites, do not rely on the thermostat, but use a good freezer thermometer. The F.D.A. also warns that these techniques may not be suitable for particularly large fish, like those thicker than six inches.

Question: How are violent crimes treated today, compared to 30 years ago?

Studies of imprisonment rates have shown that violent crimes are prosecuted much more severely today than they were 30 years ago. Nationwide, prosecutors are now far more likely to charge violent criminals as felons, rather than bring a misdemeanor charge. This could account for the reason the jails remain full even as crime declines. More: ■ In 2011, Richard A. Oppel Jr. of The New York Times wrote about the effect of a shift in sentencing guidelines: “After decades of new laws to toughen sentencing for criminals, prosecutors have gained greater leverage to extract guilty pleas from defendants and reduce the number of cases that go to trial, often by using the threat of more serious charges with mandatory sentences or other harsher penalties.”

Question: What material cost more than others when used to build a mantel?

Ms. Enger recommended using a “clean and simple” design that would appeal to both modern and traditional tastes. “Most people today don’t want anything too fussy,” she said. It’s also important to be aware of how the original surround was built. Many surrounds are made from brick veneer that is just stuck onto the wall, Ms. Enger said, and they can be removed relatively easily and replaced. But if the brick is an integral part of the wall, a cover-up job may be required. If you’re aiming for all-out luxury, you might consider installing a custom stone surround. Ms. Enger built a clean-lined limestone mantel for a spec house in Hoboken that she and her husband sold last May, she said, and it became one of the home’s most talked-about selling features. “It was something that everyone – realtors, potential buyers and friends – loved,” she said. Just be aware, she added, that “it’s definitely more pricey than wood or paint.”

Question: Which country will be more complex to modify the diesel cars in?

WOLFSBURG, Germany —  Volkswagen said on Wednesday that it would be able to bring its diesel cars into line with European clean-air standards by updating engine software and installing a small, tube-shaped part roughly the same diameter as the cardboard tube in a roll of paper towels. The technical patch that Volkswagen presented at company headquarters here is valid only for Europe, where it will be installed beginning next year. Modifying Volkswagen diesel cars sold in the United States will be more complicated because of stricter rules on emissions of nitrogen oxides, pollutants harmful to the environment and human health.

Question: What team Giancarlo Stanton from?

Outfielder Giancarlo Stanton of the Miami Marlins would be an obvious starter for the N.L., having won the league’s player of the month award for June with a .344 average and 12 home runs. But Stanton had surgery to repair a broken bone in his hand last Sunday and will miss several weeks. Likewise, Detroit’s Miguel Cabrera, who is hitting .350, is the clear choice at first base for the A.L., but he is expected to miss six weeks after sustaining a severe calf injury on Friday night.  Here is a list of the way the teams should look, with deserving (and healthy) starters listed first. Every team is represented, as the rules dictate, and each roster has the mandatory 34 players. The N.L. manager, Bruce Bochy, must pick a designated hitter from his reserves, so we did it for him. A few thoughts on the teams follow.

Question: Who ended the military agreement with the United States?

That is why the answer to defeating Boko Haram begins and ends with Nigeria. That is not to say that allies cannot help us. My administration would welcome the resumption of a military training agreement with the United States, which was halted during the previous administration. We must, of course, have better coordination with the military campaigns our African allies, like Chad and Niger, are waging in the struggle against Boko Haram. But, in the end, the answer to this threat must come from within Nigeria.

Question: Who coaches Texas Southern?

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

Question: How big of a penalty have law enforcement authorities saddled Deutsche Bank with in the last week?

Regulators around the world, but especially in the United States, are demanding that all banks reduce risk. Deutsche Bank was particularly vulnerable because of its large exposure to businesses that can be lucrative in good times but toxic in bad, like derivatives contracts. The bank said on Monday that it would stop offering some kinds of derivatives and retreat from other risk businesses like commodities trading. Meanwhile, aggressive law enforcement authorities last week extracted a $2.5 billion penalty from Deutsche Bank for misconduct related to an interest rate rigging scandal. The penalty, as well as criticism from regulators who said the bank failed to recognize signs of misconduct, damaged the reputation of the bank as well as Mr. Jain, who was head of Deutsche Bank’s investment bank operations in London, where most of the mischief took place.

Question: What word is proposed to better identify what a gamer is?

Some in the gaming community have proposed a shift in the meaning of gamer to be akin to cinephile, a person with a deep knowledge and appreciation of the whole medium. Others have argued that the definition should be broad and, in particular, reflect the wide array of people who play. “Marginalized groups have always engaged in gaming,” Kishonna Gray, director of the Critical Gaming Lab at Eastern Kentucky University, said in an email. “They just haven’t been acknowledged by gaming culture yet and they really aren’t catered to.” The Pew survey, which was conducted this summer among a sample of about 2,000 adults, found that young men play games far more than other groups, with 77 percent of 18- to 29-year-old men saying they play, and 57 percent of young women.
