Question: What does the park run along?

The other day I walked part of the 606, Chicago’s down-home twist on the chic High Line in New York: a 2.7-mile elevated park along a derelict freight track, wending east-west across a mix of industrial and residential areas. What I saw wasn’t sleek or even especially beautiful, with plantings that need time to grow, a little too much concrete and tall steel fencing. But it connects ground-level neighborhood parks and belongs to a larger, humanizing campaign by Chicago’s mayor, Rahm Emanuel, to green up gritty areas of the city. Young mothers push strollers; elderly couples walk arm in arm; joggers and speeding bicyclists hog the pathways. Rough, ready, community-friendly, the 606 speaks to Chicago’s heart.

Question: When was Shelly Silver up for re-election?

Another longtime member of the Assembly said a vindicated Mr. Silver — who remained active in the Assembly after his arrest and indictment — would be a force in the chamber because of his knowledge of the intricacies of state government. “No one knew more about the ins and outs than Shelly — no one’s even close,” the member said. “I have no doubt if he comes back, he will be very outspoken.” Others predicted a less visible role, and a potential retirement in 2016 when Mr. Silver is up for re-election.

Question: According to the article, the employment classification of who is being questioned?

A federal judge granted class-action status on Tuesday to a lawsuit that questions the employment classification of Uber drivers, paving the way for a legal challenge that could strike at the heart of the ride-hailing company’s business model. The ruling will allow a jury to decide whether some Uber drivers should be considered employees or 1099 contract workers, named after a tax designation, which does not require the company to pay payroll taxes or apply minimum wage and overtime laws to the drivers. In some states, the 1099 classification also exempts Uber from paying for things like health insurance or general vehicle upkeep. “The court concludes that a number of Uber’s class certification arguments are problematic,” Judge Edward M. Chen of the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California in San Francisco wrote in the 68-page ruling. He added that there was “simply no basis” to Uber’s claim “that some innumerable legion of drivers prefer to remain independent contractors rather than become employees.”

Question: Who are the two heroines of the film 'Frozen'?

Ms. Andino, a medical assistant, guessed that the video games might come sooner than she had planned. “Maybe later we’ll try playing Monopoly,” she said. “It eats up a lot of time.” In Midtown Manhattan, Jeremy Brisiel began the morning with no illusions. “We braved the weather yesterday,” he said, describing an outing to Kidville, a children’s gym and play station, with his daughter, Tallulah, 3. “Today, ‘Frozen’ will probably handle it,” he said, citing the sisters who are the film’s heroines. “Anna and Elsa all day.” But Tallulah and her mother, Melle Powers, an actress and teacher, had a better idea: taking an imaginary trip back to the Caribbean resort where they vacationed last week, making pretend sand castles on their small living room floor.

Question: Who is the star point guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder?

“Is Russell Westbrook a cat or a dog?” Westbrook is, in fact, the star point guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder, so this was a somewhat jarring question to pose to his fellow players during the National Basketball Association’s All-Star weekend in 2013. Nonetheless, they played along. James Harden thought Westbrook was more of a dog. Dwyane Wade hedged. “He’s a cat-dog,” he said. Finally, Westbrook weighed in. “Wolf,” he said. The cat-or-dog question came from a host of “The Basketball Jones,” an N.B.A. podcast started in 2006 by three Canadian basketball fanatics who will bring their blend of deep basketball analysis and irreverent, goofy attitude to the N.B.A.’s All-Star festivities this weekend in New York.

Question: Which research has Dr. Ohayon returned to?

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 does Vanity Fair pride itself on?

96 YEARS AGO Prehistory — before the Kardashians and Caitlyn with a C, before even the naked and pregnant Demi Moore — Vanity Fair knew how to strike with an image. It boasted as much in advertisements published in The New York Times in 1919, during the magazine’s first heyday. “Vanity Fair prides itself on knowing every lovely, brilliant, or bizarre woman in the world and printing her photograph in its pages,” the ad copy read. This was “the magazine of leisure interests for men who know enough to have them,” or so its tagline declared in a series of wittily wordy ads that ran in The Times. The image that struck hardest in those early years was not a photograph of a “lovely, brilliant, or bizarre woman,” however. It was a cartoon that depicted Emperor Hirohito of Japan, and it was the subject of an international incident.

Question: Who released a report highlighting how fast funds have grown?

Of the $70 billion in net inflows that BlackRock took in this quarter, $35 billion came from its iShares E.T.F. unit — with $18 billion of that flowing into fast-growing funds like high yield debt and corporate bonds. BlackRock now has close to $1.1 trillion in E.T.F.s under management, by far the most in the industry. And that is the rub, in the view of a growing number of academics and watchdogs. On Wednesday, the International Monetary Fund’s financial stability division released a report highlighting how fast funds have grown in areas of the market where it has become harder to buy and sell securities.

Question: The district attorney from which county is arguing for the death penalty?

As Judge Carlos Samour Jr. read the 165 counts against Mr. Holmes, the defendant stood silently between his lawyers, staring straight ahead, with his hands tucked into the pockets of a pair of khaki-colored pants. He did not glance at his parents sitting two rows behind. When the hourlong recitation of the verdicts was done, he sat down and lightly swiveled in his chair. Coming within days of the Aurora shooting’s third anniversary, the guilty verdict ends one phase of a grueling legal saga, but another one is set to begin. As the district attorney in suburban Arapahoe County argues for the death penalty, the jury will begin weighing the toll and nature of Mr. Holmes’s actions to decide whether to send him to prison for life or to Colorado’s death row. The sentencing phase is expected to take weeks. It could feature more wrenching statements from survivors and families of the victims, as well as testimony from defense witnesses discussing the role that mental illness played in propelling Mr. Holmes toward the movie theater that night.

Question: Who is the Director for the movie, "Digging for Fire"?

“Digging for Fire,” Joe Swanberg’s new feature is, like many of his previous movies, a case study in heterosexual ethics. Its scope is narrow and, the title notwithstanding, it plumbs no great depths. But like Mr. Swanberg’s “Drinking Buddies” and “Happy Christmas,” the film has an appealing honesty and an enjoyably low-key comic style. The opening titles promise a big ensemble, and a good deal of suspense comes from wondering just when some of those intriguing names will show up. It would almost be a spoiler to tell you when and in what capacity they do, but it’s fun to anticipate the arrival of Melanie Lynskey, Sam Elliott, Brie Larson, Chris Messina (who gets naked) and Anna Kendrick (who almost does). Orlando Bloom appears at almost the precise moment you’ve forgotten he was supposed to, wearing a man-bun and an air of rugged weariness.

But like Mr. Swanberg’s “Drinking Buddies” and “Happy Christmas,” the film has an appealing honesty and an enjoyably low-key comic style. The opening titles promise a big ensemble, and a good deal of suspense comes from wondering just when some of those intriguing names will show up. It would almost be a spoiler to tell you when and in what capacity they do, but it’s fun to anticipate the arrival of Melanie Lynskey, Sam Elliott, Brie Larson, Chris Messina (who gets naked) and Anna Kendrick (who almost does). Orlando Bloom appears at almost the precise moment you’ve forgotten he was supposed to, wearing a man-bun and an air of rugged weariness.

Question: When did Colon allow 3 hits?

After a shaky first inning, where Colon gave up three hits but left undamaged thanks to a double play that he helped start, the pitching coach Dan Warthen implored the 42-year-old Colon to rely on his changeup and breaking pitches. Colon said after the game through an interpreter that it felt as if he threw more changeups in Wednesday’s game than in any other over his 18-year career, but the strategy was successful.

Question: What city and state did the recent interview take place?

Amit Singhal, Google’s search chief, oversees the 200 or so factors that determine where websites rank in the company’s search engine, which means he decides if your website lives or dies. His current challenge: figuring out how to spread that same fear and influence to mobile phones. In a recent interview at Google’s headquarters in Mountain View, Calif., Mr. Singhal laid out a widely held thesis for why smartphones are fundamentally changing how people are consuming information: Phones have small screens that are annoying to type on, and people have grown so addicted to their phones that they carry them everywhere and go to bed with them by their side. Also, in a shift with big implications for his company’s sway over the Internet, smartphone users spend the bulk of their time in mobile apps instead of the open web on which Google built its business.

Question: What year did Silver become speaker?

“The speaker is not stepping down,” Mr. Whyland said. He added that Mr. Silver’s delegation of his responsibilities “will give him the flexibility he needs so that he can defend himself against these charges, and he is confident that he will be found innocent.” Mr. Silver, 70, who is from the Lower East Side of Manhattan, is accused of abusing his office to obtain $4 million in payoffs. Federal prosecutors said he disguised his windfall by portraying it as legitimate income he earned working part time, ostensibly as a personal injury lawyer. The charges against Mr. Silver threatened to throw the Capitol into turmoil because of the central role that he plays there. The speaker of the Assembly is one of Albany’s “three men in a room,” along with the governor and the State Senate majority leader, who make many of the most important decisions in state government. The new leadership arrangement will be a startling change because of Mr. Silver’s longevity: As governors and other legislators have come and gone, Mr. Silver has remained firmly in place as speaker since 1994.

Question: Who did Russian's invaded last year in unmarked unmarked unifrom?

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: Where are the Chibok girls?

This lack of reaction was symptomatic of why the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan was swept aside last month — the first time an incumbent president has been successfully voted out of office in the history of our nation. For too long they ruled, not governed, and in doing so had become so focused on their own self-interest and embroiled in corruption that the duty to react to the anguish suffered by their citizens had become alien to them. My administration, which will take office on May 29, will act differently — indeed it is the very reason we have been elected. This must begin with honesty as to whether the Chibok girls can be rescued. Currently their whereabouts remain unknown. We do not know the state of their health or welfare, or whether they are even still together or alive. As much as I wish to, I cannot promise that we can find them: to do so would be to offer unfounded hope, only to compound the grief if, later, we find we cannot match such expectation. But I say to every parent, family member and friend of the children that my government will do everything in its power to bring them home.

Question: What was the previous cost of Apple TV?

Mr. Cook also presented a new, enhanced Apple TV, which represents the company’s most ambitious effort yet to become the focal point of home entertainment systems. Apple TV already streams videos and music. Now it is set to offer video games, shopping and travel tools through an expanded array of apps. “Our vision for TV is simple,” Mr. Cook said. “We believe the future of television is apps.” The new version of Apple TV also includes a remote control that could be used as a video game controller. The product now comes with a higher price tag that starts at $150, up from $70, indicating that the company is betting that consumers will think all of the new features are worth the higher price. Jeff Williams, Apple’s senior vice president of operations, also talked about improvements to the Apple Watch, including a number of new apps like Facebook Messenger and AirStrip, a health care app that lets doctors coordinate patient care and monitor health data.

Question: What is Ms Sabbagh a member of?

But the arresting stories of the two unarmed women, and most of all the vivid images of Ms. Sabbagh’s death, have dramatized the police violence more effectively than any statistics, rights advocates say. “She is a member of a very tame opposition party, by no means a revolutionary, and yet she is subjected to this brutal force,” said Amr Abdel Rahman, a researcher with the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights. “The streets are becoming much less safe for Egyptian activists from any walk of the political spectrum than it was even last year,” he said.

Question: What was leased?

“It was a book this thick, but we were free,” joked Mr. Harschel, waving an imaginary building code volume. Mr. Olthuis noted that the house had been built following code for land houses, which, in keeping with a mandate to build greener houses in the Netherlands, stipulated triple-glazed windows, heavy insulation and even a heat exchanger to retain heat from effluent — something that most houseboats, which tend to be light houses on a heavy foundation, avoid. Mr. Harschel estimates that the couple spent 350,000 euros, or $380,000, to build the house (the lease for the lot is €600 a month), and guesses that the value of the property has probably more than doubled in the years since it was built.

Question: Which of Shakespeare's tragedies were included in the 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: What is Rosario Candela responsible for?

These conversions include 12 East 88th Street, a red-brick 13-story building near Fifth Avenue designed by Rosario Candela, the architect responsible for much of the Upper East Side’s elegant look. Under an approved offering plan, Simon Baron Development will be allowed to create up to 53 units for sale in the building, ranging from one- to five-bedrooms, after combining some of the existing 65 apartments. Seventeen of the units currently have tenants paying regulated rents. Just outside the Carnegie Hill Historic District, the property, completed in 1931 and on the same block as the Guggenheim Museum, can be altered without city approval. But other than upgrading windows, the developer said there were no plans to change the exterior.

Question: What did The Wirecutter comb through?

The Archer C7 isn’t for everyone. So The Wirecutter also combed through test results and picked some routers for different living situations, such as small apartments or homes where people primarily use Apple devices. Generally, we recommend you upgrade to a new router every three to four years. That accounts for how often people typically upgrade devices like smartphones (every two years) and computers (every three to four years). Yet whether your smartphones, computers and tablets are one, two or five years old, now is a good time to buy a new router if you haven’t in the last three years. Newer devices are probably using the 802.11ac standard, so you will get the fastest speeds at long distances with an 802.11ac router. If you hoard old devices, you will also get faster speeds and greater range. These benefits will be especially clear if you stay on a 5 GHz Wi-Fi network for as long as you can.

Question: Who read the book, The Second Sex?

RBG: Between 20 and 25 percent of the law students in Sweden were women. And there were women on the bench. I went to one proceeding in Stockholm where the presiding judge was eight months pregnant. There was also a journalist who wrote a column in the Swedish daily paper: “Why should women have two jobs, and men only one?” Inflation was high, and two incomes were often needed. But it was the woman who was expected to buy the kids new shoes and have dinner on the table at 7. I remember listening to those conversations. It was that same summer I read “The Second Sex.” GS: For me, an important point came when I was living in India, because of the Gandhian movement and the role of women in it.

Question: What are the theatrical production values to promote?

Peace, love and respect are excellent values for a theatrical production to promote, especially one directed at children. But it takes more than good intentions to make a good show, and Illstyle and Peace Productions’ “IMpossible IZZpossible,” which played over the weekend at BAM Fisher as part of the BAM Kids series, is an incoherent jumble. After the performance on Saturday afternoon, Brandon Albright, the Philadelphia-based company’s affable founder, director and choreographer, explained that the production was about the difficult process of achieving your dreams. Yet the show, a disconnected suite of mediocre hip-hop routines riddled with baffling elements, seemed less about that process than still involved in it, and at an early, inchoate stage. The chief distinction of the choreography lies in its effort to mix hip-hop styles with steps from tap, ballet and West African dance. Considering the cultural connections between hip-hop and African dance, it’s not surprising that they would blend well, but hybrids are often ungainly, and it’s a relief to see one as smooth as this. Alas, the awkwardness averted there crops up just about everywhere else.

Question: When was porcelain invented?

Invented in China, about 1,000 years ago, porcelain is a ceramic made from a varying mixture of materials, the most indispensable of which is a whitish clay, kaolin. The city of Jingdezhen produced the most beautiful of these objects: bowls, jars, vases and other items created in vast quantities for the imperial court. Porcelain was so abundant in China that when Marco Polo made the first mention of the material in Western literature, it was to marvel that the pieces he encountered in China were “so plentiful and cheap that for a Venetian groat you might buy three bowls of such beauty that nothing lovelier could be imagined.” Not so in Europe, where, for 400 years after they laid eyes on it, no one knew how to make the stuff. Aristocrats and monarchs regarded imported “china” as treasure. It was nicknamed “white gold.” Augustus II, elector of Saxony, an omnivorous collector of both mistresses and china, wrote, “The same is true for oranges as for porcelain, that once one has the sickness of one or the other, one can never get enough of the things and wishes to have more and more.” In the early 18th century, under his orders, an odd couple of proto-scientists — an urbane mathematician and a young, eccentric alchemist — finally figured out how to make porcelain in Dresden. A few years later, William Cookworthy, a mild-mannered Quaker apothecary living in Devon, noticed that the clay in a nearby Cornish hill resembled the kaolin described in newly published letters from China. He became the first person to make true porcelain in England. This is the rough origin story Edmund de Waal sets out to tell in “The White Road: Journey Into an Obsession.” He would appear to be the ideal candidate for the job: A celebrated ceramist who makes austere white porcelain vessels, he is also the author of a surprise best seller: “The Hare With Amber Eyes,” published in 2010. That book followed the fate of a collection of netsuke (small Japanese carvings) acquired by his fabulously wealthy Jewish family during the belle epoque, lost when they fled Austria following the Anschluss and then recovered again when a former servant revealed that she had stealthily secreted the little objects in her mattress. What makes “The Hare With Amber Eyes” so entrancing is not the netsuke, however charming they may be, but the family, beginning with the suave cousin of his great-grandfather, one of the models for Proust’s Charles Swann and an early enthusiast and collector of Japanese art and a patron of the Impressionists. De Waal has a wicked gift for dissecting the tricky relations between artists and the rich people whose whims make it possible for them to both work and eat. He applies it to delicious effect in the strongest section of “The White Road,” which describes the travails of Ehrenfried Walther von Tschirnhaus — student of Spinoza, friend of Newton and Leibniz — as he rattled around Europe seeking an aristocrat to fund his research: “If you are interested in optics or mineralogy or funding a dictionary of philosophy, you are lucky to get two minutes of the attention of a margrave who lives for killing stags or boar in inventive ways.”

Question: Who was the 17 year old student killed by police officers?

CAIRO — At least 18 people were killed in political violence on Sunday, the fourth anniversary of the Arab Spring uprising, a reminder of the ruthless crackdown the military-backed government has used to silence any echoes of that revolt. Security officials said three of those killed were militants trying to plant bombs that accidentally exploded in two Nile Delta towns, and three others were police conscripts. At least 12 others were civilians killed by security forces. As many as 10 civilians were killed in clashes in the Matariya district, a frequent flash point on the northern edge of Cairo, and dozens of civilians were reportedly injured in clashes at scattered protests around the country. After nearly 18 months of recurring police shootings at street protests since the military takeover in 2013, it was the deaths of two others killed over the weekend that most captured Egypt’s attention. Sondos Reda Abu Bakr, a 17-year-old high school student, was killed Friday by police officers firing birdshot at a demonstration in Alexandria in support of ousted President Mohamed Morsi of the Muslim Brotherhood. And Shaimaa al-Sabbagh, 31, a left-leaning poet and activist, was killed in Cairo. She was a member of a socialist political party that had supported President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and the military takeover he led in 2013.

Question: Who published Ms. Slaughter's book?

Ms. Slaughter has turned The Atlantic article into a book: “Unfinished Business: Women Men Work Family” (Random House). If Ms. Sandberg was primarily focused on actions, Ms. Slaughter is still preoccupied with attitudes. Although there are plenty of policy recommendations, mostly seen before elsewhere, the emphasis is on changing minds, not laws. An entire chapter, for instance, is devoted to the way we talk, which includes a discussion of whether the terms “juggling” and “balance” are offensive and concludes with Ms. Slaughter’s preference for the awkward phrase “work/life fit.” Ms. Slaughter describes the book’s ambition as making us “come together as women and men” to “change how we think, how we talk, how we plan and work and vote.” “Unfinished Business” retains the form and tone of the shorter original but adds extensive excerpts from the “thousands of readers” who Ms. Slaughter says either wrote her directly or otherwise commented on the article. In addition, Ms. Slaughter went on a “listening tour,” giving hundreds of speeches she describes as a form of “call and response research.”

Question: Who will Mr. Cameron be under increased pressure from, to "revist the question of independence from Scotland?"

Those start with his pledge to hold a referendum by the end of 2017 on Britain’s continued membership in the European Union. He will also be under increased pressure from the other big winner of the election, the Scottish National Party, to revisit the question of independence for Scotland. “A small majority can quickly turn into a bed of nails,” said Fraser Nelson, editor of The Spectator magazine. Backbenchers in Mr. Cameron’s own party, many of them farther to the right than he is on questions of immigration and Britain’s membership in the European Union, “will be his real opposition,” Mr. Nelson said.

Question: What was Sam Youngs justification for voting against his district who wanted Milne?

One was Representative Sam Young, Democrat of Glover, a town in northeastern Vermont near the Canadian border. His district, where many voters are unhappy about wind turbines favored by Mr. Shumlin, voted overwhelmingly for Mr. Milne, but on Thursday, Mr. Young voted for Mr. Shumlin. “I think the person who gets the most votes should win,” Mr. Young said. This is not academic for him; he won office in 2010 after a recount — by one vote. “If Milne had won the election statewide, I would have voted for him,” Mr. Young said. “I truly believe we should preserve the democratic process: one person, one vote.”

Question: How long will Stephan be out?

“I know he does some acting on the side,” Julien said in a postgame news conference Friday, “but it doesn’t need to be on the ice.” Lundqvist called Julien’s remarks “disrespectful,” adding that his head and neck were still sore from the collision. “Diving has never been an option for me,” Lundqvist said. With Stepan out indefinitely, Vigneault recast his forward-line combinations Saturday, with the rookie Oscar Lindberg centering J. T. Miller and Jesper Fast, and Kevin Hayes centering Emerson Etem and Chris Kreider, who has one goal in his last 10 games.
