Question: What were the teenagers judged on?

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: What hangs ov er the staircase?

The restaurant is just as dramatic on the inside. A Swarovski crystal chandelier with 96 bulbs hangs above the circular staircase, separating the lounge and bar from the white-hued dining room, where there are floor-to-ceiling windows. The dining experience, however, wasn’t quite as grandiose. The service was pleasant but sloppy, and the pricey menu, while dotted with winners, also had a fair share of disappointments. This could be because Orama lost its original executive chef, John Piliouras, in September. Two chefs, Dongmin Lyu and Nazario Anselmo, both of whom had been working in the kitchen, took over for him. Orama, which opened last New Year’s Eve, is owned by Simeon Maximiadis, a former emergency room psychologist who went into managing steakhouses, and Stacey Christakos, his partner in both business and life. They spent millions renovating what had been a Japanese restaurant.

Question: What are police departments equipping their officers with?

Police departments around the country have been moving with unusual speed to equip officers with body cameras to film their often edgy encounters with the public. But the adoption of these cameras has created a new conflict over who has the right to view the recordings. In Seattle, where a dozen officers started wearing body cameras in a pilot program in December, the department has set up its own YouTube channel, broadcasting a stream of blurred images to protect the privacy of people filmed. Much of this footage is uncontroversial; one scene shows a woman jogging past a group of people and an officer watching her, then having a muted conversation with people whose faces have been obscured.

Question: How many justices accepted Mr. Yates argument?

In two opinions, five justices accepted Mr. Yates’s argument that fish were not the sort of tangible objects with which the law was concerned. Their analysis was based on a close reading of the words and structure of the law. The case arose from a 2007 search of the Miss Katie, Mr. Yates’s fishing vessel. A Florida field officer, John Jones, boarded it at sea and noticed fish that seemed less than 20 inches long, which was under the minimum legal size of red grouper at the time. Mr. Jones, an officer with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and a federal deputy, measured the fish and placed the 72 he deemed too small in a crate. He issued a citation and instructed Mr. Yates to take the crate to port for seizure. But Mr. Yates had the fish thrown overboard and replaced with larger ones. A second inspection in port aroused suspicions, and a crew member eventually told law enforcement officials what had happened.

Question: how old is Mr. Boire?

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

Question: What Mr. Maduro say American diplomats who remained in Venezuela must do?

In an apparent response to the Obama administration’s recent decision to ban certain Venezuelan officials suspected of human rights violations from traveling to the United States, Mr. Maduro unveiled a no-fly list of his own, declaring former President George W. Bush; former Vice President Dick Cheney; and George Tenet, a former director of the C.I.A., personae non gratae. For good measure, Mr. Maduro warned that the American diplomats who remained in Venezuela must clear any meetings, presumably with anyone, with his government. The moves are meant to combat “imperialist aggression,” he told a throng of supporters on Saturday during a rambling, effusive speech.

Question: In what part of Lebanon is Hana Abdullah currently present?

Shooting images for the print magazine component of “The Displaced,” Addario accompanied Hana Abdullah, a 12-year-old Syrian girl now living in a refugee settlement in Lebanon’s Bekaa Valley, for 21 hours a day, documenting her daily life. At one point, she found herself in a plum orchard where Hana worked with other child refugees. “They had started working at 5 in the morning,” Addario told Blanchett. “And around 11 in the morning, they started falling out of the trees — literally the children were collapsing out of the trees. It was something I had never seen before.” Addario and Blanchett discussed the crisis with the Iraqi-American journalist Zainab Salbi and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees spokeswoman Melissa Fleming. “For children like … Hana, the situation has just got a hell of a lot worse and more complicated following the Beirut and Paris attacks,” Blanchett said. And yet “these people are not going to evaporate,” she said. “The problem is not going to go away overnight.” Watch the full video here:

Question: Who might support further punishment for Kyrgios?

“These kids, they’ve got to get under control,” Harrison said. “They’re going to get hurt.” Harrison added that he believed Kokkinakis and Kyrgios were hiding behind tennis’s genteel code of conduct. “If he wants to get into it, I will bury him,” Harrison said. “Wawrinka should’ve decked Kyrgios, and I should deck that kid.” Kokkinakis, however, distanced himself from Kyrgios, and said it was unfair to conflate the two. “I let him know — I made it pretty clear that he can’t be doing that,” Kokkinakis said of Kyrgios’s insult. “If he’s got a problem, he’s got to say it in private. The way he went about it definitely wasn’t the right thing.” The elder statesmen of the tour have been similarly indignant. “Obviously it’s the talk of the locker room, and everybody has their opinion,” Roger Federer said. “But I think that we all agree that he definitely crossed the line by a long shot. We’re not used to that kind of talk in tennis.” Federer suggested he might support further punishment for Kyrgios. “A fine is one thing; we’ll see if there’s going to be more coming,” Federer said. “I haven’t heard anything, but clearly it was very disappointing and not great for the sport, one that I think many players have tried to build up and make it a good image. We want kids to be wanting to get into this sport, I guess, because it’s a nice sport, it’s clean, it’s fair, and all these things. I don’t think there should be any room for that kind of talk.”

Question: What are some examples the author gives, of different people who are Muslim?

They tell the world that though the mass murderer was quoting from the Quran, he got the Quran wrong. Some of the gutsy ones don’t forget to add: What about your own secular mass murderers? They are suggesting that Muslim mass murderers should be treated like non-Muslim mass murderers, like those shooters on American college campuses or the invaders of Iraq. Should we thank them for striving for parity among mass killers? Did someone say peace? They say that Islam teaches us to respect all religions. They again point to the Holy Book: Look, here’s Jesus; he is our prophet, too. But they don’t explain the point of having a religion if its god and its prophet are no bigger or better or faster than yours. We are encouraged to look at Sufi Islam as a model of moderation. Yet Sufi Muslims, brandishing Rumi and whirling like couplets in a bad poem, don’t even pretend to offer any solution. When asked about Islam they say, let’s listen to some music. At least they are more honest than our spokesmen. And thank you, our spokesmen, for reminding the world that Muslims are not a race. Some of us speak Chinese, others Swahili. Some of us are gay, painters, lawyers, prostitutes, pimps or drummers, and of course mass murderers. Muslims disagree over most things, about this life and the afterlife as well. I have a household of six and can never get us to agree on anything, even though one is an infant and two are dogs.

Question: Where was Mr. Watkins visiting from?

The judge’s ruling came after lengthy hearings, starting in February, during which Mr. Hincapie testified that a detective had beaten a confession out of him and a previously unknown witness, Mariluz Santana, came forward to swear she had not seen Mr. Hincapie on the subway platform when the murder happened. Mr. Watkins, a tourist from Utah visiting New York for the United States Open, was stabbed in the chest on Sept. 3, 1990, in a struggle with at least six young men who had tried to rob his family inside the Seventh Avenue subway station at 53rd Street. Some of the men later said they needed money to go dancing at the Roseland Ballroom. Mr. Hincapie, now 43, was arrested the next day and confessed to taking part. He was one of seven young men convicted of felony murder at two separate trials. Under state law, everyone who takes part in a mugging can be held responsible for murder if a victim dies.

Question: Why do I think you should take this course?

She taught a course on Shakespeare’s tragedies: “Lear,” “Macbeth,” “Othello.” It was by far my favorite class at the University of North Carolina, which I attended in the mid-1980s, though I couldn’t and can’t think of any bluntly practical application for it, not unless you’re bound for a career on the stage or in academia. I headed in neither direction. So I guess I was just wasting my time, at least according to a seemingly growing chorus of politicians and others whose metrics for higher education are skill acquisition and job placement.

Question: For who should be organized "safe spaces"?

That category could easily have included me. In 2006 I was shot at by a drunken 20-something man on the North Side of Chicago while riding in a car with three female friends. The reason? I was in the back seat next to the man’s ex-girlfriend. Enraged, he burst from his house, pistol popping. Luckily, his aim was bad, and my friend was a good defensive driver: The shooter only managed to crack the rear window. I learned later that he had loose ties to a Hispanic set. Since then, I have sometimes wondered how close I came, as a brown man, then in my mid-20s, to having my death trivialized by a two-word phrase in a police blotter. The chimera of devious street tribes might give people a scapegoat for Chicago’s gun violence, but it doesn’t reflect the complex reality on the ground. And sending in tactical units to “destroy the gangs,” as the former Chicago police superintendent Garry McCarthy recently vowed, distracts from the structural problems that lead to gun violence in inner-city neighborhoods. When our solution to crime is to target gangs, we risk targeting whole swaths of people in economically disadvantaged neighborhoods, almost all of them black and Hispanic. A real solution would involve more opportunities for employment and education, stricter policies on gun control and safe spaces for those who have been traumatized, in order to minimize the chance of violence being perpetuated — the same things people have spent half a century calling for in these neighborhoods.

Question: How many weddings does the Plaza hotel in New York host per year?

“People don’t want to miss that part of the evening, and thus they’re learning to pace themselves,” said Maureen Farley, director of hospitality at the Plaza hotel in New York, which hosts approximately 60 weddings a year. Eighty percent of those events have after-parties, she said. “These parties are marathons, not sprints,” Ms. Farley said. “And if they consume too much at the wedding, they won’t make it to the next leg, which is where the D.J. and dancing take place.” The after-parties often start at 1:30 a.m. and can run til 4 a.m. What is being served is also helping to control the impulse to overindulge. A growing foodie culture in the millennial generation is putting emphasis on the quality of the meal, craft cocktails and other specialties, said Ms. Walton of the Bridal Bar.

Question: What country is Oaxaca a region in?

One ideal place to be this summer is the slender terrace overlooking Manhattan at Charritos, a restaurant in Weehawken specializing in the colorful dishes of Oaxaca, a region in southern Mexico. For those unfamiliar with Oaxacan cuisine, it is known for chocolate-infused moles, which Charritos does serve, and grasshoppers, which it does not. From this tiny terrace perched on the Palisades, you can peer as far north as the George Washington Bridge and as far south as the Verrazano. If you order a mojito, which the bartender perfects with muddled mint and a generous squeeze of fresh lime, the view can seem even more enchanting.

Question: What is it tempting to describe the Market for Ms. Basford's book as?

There are, it seems, a lot of them. Though it is tempting to describe the market for her books as niche, Ms. Basford, a 31-year-old illustrator in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, has quickly outgrown that label. Like Play-Doh, jungle gyms and nursery rhymes, coloring books have always seemed best suited for the preschool set. So Ms. Basford and her publisher were surprised to learn that there was a robust — and lucrative — market for coloring books aimed at grown-ups. When they first tested the waters with “Secret Garden” a year ago, they released a cautiously optimistic first printing of 16,000 books. “I thought my mom was going to have to buy a lot of copies,” Ms. Basford said. “When the sales started to take off, it was a real shock.”

Question: Which inmates were most likely to be the victims of retribution?

For days after the June prison break, corrections officers carried out what seemed like a campaign of retribution against dozens of Clinton inmates, particularly those on the honor block, an investigation by The New York Times found. In letters reviewed by The Times, as well as prison interviews, inmates described a strikingly similar catalog of abuses, including being beaten while handcuffed, choked and slammed against cell bars and walls. They were also subjected to harsh policies ordered by the State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision: Dozens of inmates, many of whom had won the right to live on the honor block after years of good behavior, were transferred out of Clinton to other prisons. Many were placed in solitary confinement, and stripped of privileges they had accrued over the years — even though no prisoners have yet been linked to Mr. Matt’s and Mr. Sweat’s actions.

Question: What position does Thomas become a hall of famer for playing?

Dolan announced that Thomas, a Hall of Fame point guard, would serve as president of the W.N.B.A.’s Liberty, the city’s women’s basketball team. “We believe Isiah belongs in basketball,” Madison Square Garden officials said in a statement, “and are grateful that he has committed his considerable talent to help the Liberty succeed.” This statement is fine as far as it goes, particularly if you’ve suffered catastrophic memory loss. Thomas and Dolan last roamed together in the corporate suites at the Garden in 2008. A year before that, a jury found that Thomas had sexually harassed a team executive in the crudest of terms. The executive, now known professionally as Anucha Browne, testified that Thomas had used misogynistic slurs. When she complained to top officials at the Garden, Dolan personally insisted on firing her. Who among us does not believe in repentance and second chances? I called to ask the Garden about Thomas and the boss. Have the two men repented? Do they have second thoughts? Or have they rethought their first thoughts? This email statement arrived in my inbox:

Question: Who flee?

Instead, the film’s emotional climax comes as Mr. Homsi himself reaches Istanbul, released from captivity and torture by the Islamic State. He and Mr. Saleh, ask themselves if their revolution is to blame for the Islamists’ rise, and their country’s destruction. Mr. Homsi tries to reassure Mr. Saleh that he was right to flee, saying an older man would break if arrested by jihadists or the secret police, especially a man so “pure inside.” Mr. Saleh covers his eyes; a muscle in his jaw twitches. “That’s what you think,” he says.

Question: What gave Mr. Bridges a  historical and structural framework?

They also played in his band here: In White Denim, they’re not especially restrained, but here, they played with a light touch. Maybe that’s out of deference to the style, or maybe it’s because Mr. Bridges isn’t yet a fully realized stage performer: He looked reluctant at times, and often the band was clobbering him as he was attempting subtlety. In between songs, he mumbled words quickly and unintelligibly. Playing the part is not enough. That mode gives him a framework, historical and structural. It takes the pressure off. It also advertises him without his having to so much as open his mouth.

Question: Who is planned to make an appearance on "The Starters"?

But this year, the hosts of “The Jones” will be broadcasting for the league itself. A little more than a year ago, “The Jones” podcast was rebranded as “The Starters,” a television program shown weeknights on NBATV. It is available to stream live and download as a podcast but it exists primarily as a television broadcast. In its second season, “The Starters” is growing quickly in popularity. According to the network, viewership has increased by 24 percent this season, with podcast downloads up 22 percent. NBATV says it will continue to raise the show’s profile. Plans for this weekend include an hourlong live show at 6 p.m. Friday, with player interviews and an appearance by the basketball great George Gervin. “They prove you can be entertaining and smart on TV without being overbearing and loud about it,” said Zach Lowe, an N.B.A. writer for the Grantland website and a podcaster. In the wake of the hit true-crime show “Serial,” podcasts are widely acknowledged to be growing. A recent report from Edison Research indicates a “dramatic increase in podcast consumption.” Jeff Ullrich, the co-founder of the podcasting network Earwolf, says the shift has been palpable.

Question: Who is the director and screenwriter of the new movie "Spy?"

BUDAPEST —  Melissa McCarthy was standing in an ersatz C.I.A. office here, on a soundstage a few miles outside the city. With a curly wig and a fake case of pink eye, she was shooting a scene opposite Jude Law for their new movie, “Spy,” as the director and screenwriter, Paul Feig, looked on. Mr. Feig, lanky and preternaturally dapper in his customary bespoke three-piece suit, pocket square and flower lapel pin, traversed the set with an ornate walking stick. Mr. Law, playing a James Bond-esque agent, was similarly kitted out in sleek designer garb. The costume for Ms. McCarthy, as an analyst in the field for her first undercover operation, included a lot of beige; a brown crocheted vest, a ruffled denim skirt, athletic sandals. The wig, she said, is “not human hair,” maybe “recycled water bottles.” As a few producers watched and Mr. Feig adjusted the blocking, the actors filmed a scene in which Mr. Law’s character jokes about running away together and Ms. McCarthy, as his besotted colleague, takes him seriously.

BUDAPEST — Melissa McCarthy was standing in an ersatz C.I.A. office here, on a soundstage a few miles outside the city. With a curly wig and a fake case of pink eye, she was shooting a scene opposite Jude Law for their new movie, “Spy,” as the director and screenwriter, Paul Feig, looked on.

Question: How much was the dinner?

“But, but ...” “When I started out,” he explained, “I was invited by the founder of our company for drinks and steak. And I tried to pay for our dinner, which ended up about $200 — and this was in the ’70s, when $200 meant something. He yanked my wallet from me and said, ‘John, I invited you to dinner; that means you’re my guest. And if you’re my guest, that means I’m supposed to take care of you. And if I’m going to take care of you, that means I’ve got your bill.’ ” He continued. “And my boss said, ‘What kind of boss would I be — what kind of man would I be — if I made my worker or guest, who I know makes far less money than me, pay for the meal? That’s just a pathetic move that shows I have no empathy. That’s not a good philosophy to live by. So I pay. The good person always offers to pay; and the wealthier of the two always does.’ ” “Can we at least go Dutch?” I responded to the executive.

Question: what did a friend tell Amelie when she moved to Manhattan?

After Amelie Wisniak moved to Manhattan from Paris four years ago, a friend told her, “Never leave the island” — Manhattan was the epicenter. At first Ms. Wisniak, an entrepreneur and a founder of SportChaser, a search engine that connects sports fans to bars, heeded that advice — “I never went to Brooklyn,” she said. But she and her boyfriend, Pascal Greilich, a software developer, could not afford to buy the kind of apartment they wanted in Manhattan and grew tired of spending $2,250 a month on rent for a one-bedroom in Hell’s Kitchen. So the couple expanded their horizons, specifically to Clinton Hill, in north-central Brooklyn. They paid $995,000 for a two-bedroom two-bath condominium built in 2007.

Question: What two animals are most vet shows heavy on?

Perhaps it seems inefficient to put so much effort into helping individual animals, but the counterweight to that perception is that many of their problems are caused by humans. The rhinoceros, for instance, lost its horn to poachers. Part of the beauty of the presentation is that it lets you work out the ethical issues for yourself rather than beating you over the head with them. That restraint sets “Operation Wild” apart from its cousins on basic cable, where outlets like Animal Planet and the National Geographic Channel have been turning veterinarians into TV stars for years: “Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet,” “The Incredible Dr. Pol,” “Emergency Vets.” A new entry comes along next Saturday on Animal Planet: “Dr. Jeff, Rocky Mountain Vet.” The differences between that show and “Operation Wild” are pronounced. “Dr. Jeff” is about a Colorado veterinarian named Jeff Young, who has a sprawling practice that includes a mobile clinic. It’s typical of these shows: heavy on cats and dogs, but with a smattering of more exotic domesticated animals. In the premiere, for instance, a camel is gelded.

Question: How many copies of this song were sold?

“When a Man Loves a Woman” was his first recording for Atlantic Records, after a patient at the hospital introduced him to the record producer Quin Ivy. It reached No. 1 on the pop charts in 1966 and sold more than a million copies, becoming the label’s first gold record. (The Recording Industry Association of America began certifying records as gold in 1958.) Raw and lovelorn, the song was a response to a woman who had left him for another man, Mr. Sledge said. He called its composition a “miracle.”

Question: What beer does Ninkasi Brewing make?

The bandwidth of lagers is rather narrow, but they have their refreshing role to play. None did it better than our No. 1 brew, Session Premium Lager from Full Sail Brewing, clean, crisp, lively and fresh. Session, surprisingly, is not made entirely of malted barley. It uses a touch of malted wheat as well. Apparently, lager producers have found ways to be creative without exploding the genre. Other beers well worth seeking out include the pleasantly bitter District Common from Atlas Brew Works; the golden, malty, hoppy Venn Dortmund-Style Lager from Ninkasi Brewing; the lively, lightly bitter Dortmunder Gold Lager from Great Lakes Brewing; and the fresh, grassy Lawnmower Lager from Caldera Brewing. The Lawnmower, by the way, was the lowest in alcohol in the tasting at just 3.9 percent.

Question: Who did Nashville outshoot by 14-3

Pekka Rinne made 19 saves for the Predators, who fell to 11-6-3 with their third straight shutout loss. Nashville has not scored in a franchise-record 213 minutes 47 seconds, since Miikka Salmomaki’s goal at 6:13 of the second period in a 3-2 win over Anaheim last Tuesday. Nashville outshot the Rangers by 14-3 in a scoreless first period. The Predators spent 7:21 on the power play, as Dan Girardi (interference), Keith Yandle (holding) and Stepan (double-minor for high-sticking) committed penalties. Still, the Predators were stymied by an aggressive Lundqvist, who challenged Nashville’s shooters throughout. Lundqvist’s play kept the Rangers in the game, and Nash’s sixth goal of the season at 4:32 of the second period gave them the lead. The goal was Nash’s fourth in the Rangers’ past two games. BRUINS 4, MAPLE LEAFS 3 David Krejci scored the only goal in a shootout and Patrice Bergeron extended his point streak to eight games as Boston won in Toronto to sweep a home-and-home series.

Question: Where did the person grasp the idea of resilience?

It was with my classmates. Someone had been stealing from the cubbies in our classroom, and so I organized a couple of my classmates and we started the Star Detective Group. And I got my teacher to sign off on this group to make it legit, and we then investigated. When I got to junior high, I organized a walkout from the school to protest the first Iraq war. But I also got it endorsed by the teachers, because I was never too much of a rebel. I also learned resilience from my mother. The confidence that you have to have as a survival skill — I saw that in her and learned that from her. You have to feel that your voice matters and that you can drive change and impact change, because if you feel like you can’t, then you won’t.
