Question: Who is Gizmodo's new editor?

Some of the areas of coverage that those sites focused on will now be addressed by the remaining seven sites. Jezebel, he said, will now “become the primary voice for celebrity and pop culture coverage in the network.” Gizmodo, which recently hired a new editor, Katie Drummond, from Bloomberg, will take over the coverage of science fiction, fantasy and futurism that was previously handled by the site io9. Seven people will lose their jobs in the revamping, although six jobs will be created. Plans to license Gawker’s content management system, Kinja, will be shelved. Gawker.com, the first site founded by Mr. Denton, had been seen as the quintessential Manhattan media and gossip publication of the Internet age — a destination for ambitious, young writers eager to cover the industry and the powerful figures who populate it. It has been no stranger to turmoil itself, with frequent changes among its top newsroom leadership, scandals over subjects it has covered or materials it has published. Disagreements in its staff have often broken into public view. But the announcement on Tuesday represents a more fundamental change of direction for the site and the company.

Question: How did Alberto Youseff's marriage end?

“It’s hard to predict,” he said. “Statistically, when you have cases against the rich and powerful, things tend to end with pizza. We have no illusions. No aspirations to be superheroes. We are only a group of guys determined to do our best.” One person who will be celebrating before too long is Alberto Youssef. Stress and jail have turned his hair gray, slimmed him down by 40 pounds and landed him last year in the hospital with a heart attack. His wife divorced him and he is said to be destitute. His days as a nexus of cash and gifts are over. But Judge Moro determined that his assistance had been so helpful that he was given the minimum sentence allowed in his plea agreement. With the time he has already served, he will be free by the beginning of 2017.

Question: The Passat uses what chemical to neutralize nitrogen oxide?

Beginning with the 2013 model year, cars like the Passat were equipped with a system that uses the chemical urea to neutralize nitrogen oxide emissions and is considered effective when properly configured. Those vehicles may be easier to repair. Volkswagen did not sell any engines smaller than 2 liters in the United States, though a small number of cars with 1.6-liter motors may have been imported from Mexico or other countries. Representatives of Volkswagen and its Audi division have been in talks with the Environmental Protection Agency about how to make cars in the United States compliant.

Question: How big is the building?

Q. Your next makeover is at 1156 Avenue of the Americas.  A. That’s a building that we’ve owned since 1999. I was looking at the building and I said, well, if this building was for sale now and one of the major brokers had it on the market it would come with a high-gloss book and it would show all of the possibilities a buyer could do with the building. So I thought there’s no reason we shouldn’t do it. We own it. We could do what a broker would say could be done. It’s about an 84,000-square-foot building, so it’s rather on the small side, and on that we’re spending $4 million. Q. What’s your occupancy rate portfoliowide?  A. We’re over 96 percent. We have a high renewal rate as well — in excess of 70 percent.

Question: How many people does Indian Railways employ?

Indian Railways is primarily a form of employment that also runs trains. It employs more than 1.3 million people, and in the last fiscal year earned about 1.6 trillion rupees, or $25.2 billion, or less than 14 percent of the revenue of Apple. The railway spends almost as much as it earns. Often it turns in a small profit, but that is a result of legally sanctioned accounting wizardry. For instance, the way it calculates depreciation on its assets is not how companies conduct the same exercise. Also, it does not spend as much as it should on upgrading its trains, research or on safety.

Question: Penn & Teller tell the audience to turn on what during their new Broadway show?

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

Question: What percentage of women gamers identify as gamers?

Like men, about half of all women play video games. But men are far more likely to call themselves “gamers.” That’s according to a new Pew Research Center survey that found 48 percent of women play video games, just shy of the 50 percent of men who play. The gamer identity was far less attractive to women, however, with 6 percent of them adopting the label compared with 15 percent of men. Video game experts said it was no surprise that women are shunning an association with gaming culture as the community of hard-core players has become increasingly identified with sexist attitudes among its fringe members.

Question: What day does the new administration take office?

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: Where are cannabinoids chemicals imported from?

Law enforcement agencies, from the Drug Enforcement Administration to local police departments, have struggled to control the flow of synthetic cannabinoids, substances that look like marijuana that are sprayed with a hallucinogenic chemical and then smoked. Those chemicals, typically imported from China by American distributors, come in hundreds of varieties; new formulations appear monthly, with molecules subtly tweaked to try to skirt the D.E.A.’s list of illegal drugs as well as drug-detecting urine tests. Although the entire class of drugs is illegal because of the psychological effects, each new variety can present distinct health risks caused by its underlying chemistry or contaminants in renegade manufacturing facilities. Experts warn that the popular term “synthetic marijuana” is a misnomer, as the substances merely resemble marijuana but can be 100 times as potent. The use of synthetic cannabinoids as well as calls to poison control centers had decreased from 2011 through 2014, as awareness of their danger and illegality has spread, national data indicates.

Question: It seems like the plane was supposed to be departing from what airport?

British Airways said a small number of passengers and crew had been taken to the hospital as a precaution.

Question: What is Germany's signature bank?

FRANKFURT — Anshu Jain, the co-chief executive of Deutsche Bank, chuckled when he was asked on Monday whether the United States had become inhospitable to foreign banks. “There is a big advantage to being American in America,” he said. In fact, zealous regulators and aggressive law enforcement authorities have prompted most other European banks to curtail their operations in the United States. On Monday, Deutsche Bank responded to the tense atmosphere with a sweeping plan to shrink its investment bank and reduce its dependence on borrowed money. The changes probably make Deutsche Bank less of a threat to the global financial system. But they are sure to raise questions about whether Germany’s signature bank can continue to compete in the same league as Goldman Sachs or JPMorgan Chase.

Question: What was the course about?

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 the name of the head-up display created by DD technology?

“Tech and innovation in the auto industry are moving so much faster than the regulators can keep up with it,” she said. The Department of Transportation has sponsored research at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute into whether the safety benefit of having head-up displays in cars outweighs the risk of distraction; that study is expected to conclude in 2016. Another take on the fledgling technology comes from a Vancouver, British Columbia, start-up called DD Technologies — started by two entrepreneurs who said they were inspired to build a head-up display after watching an “Iron Man” movie. The company’s display, Iris, which should soon be available in limited quantities, allows drivers to read the contents of a text. But the entrepreneurs say they’re not encouraging the behavior — well, not exactly.

Question: Erika Kirby is a professor of what subject?

Of course, most lawmakers in Washington spend long periods away from family. But by declaring the preservation of his family life a key concern in taking on a job that is a seven-day-a-week venture — the sort of job he sought once before, in 2012, when he was the Republican vice-presidential nominee — Mr. Ryan, 45, may be ushering in a new era for a position traditionally held by older congressmen who spent years rising through party ranks. “In U.S. society, we often talk about ‘working moms’ but not about ‘working dads,’ and the work-life policies that organizations do provide are often considered as being mainly for women,” said Erika Kirby a professor of communication studies and an authority on work-life issues at Creighton University in Omaha. “So I think Representative Ryan’s call for protecting his family time within a demanding job is extremely significant.”

Question: What kind of student is Alex?

Until his health began to fail, we traveled to see the Cubs in San Francisco and San Diego, and Arizona, where in 2007 we took my son, Alex, to the first round of the National League playoffs so he could be duly indoctrinated: two games against the Diamondbacks, two losses by the Cubs. In truth, as time passes, the results have mattered less than the time we had together. The Cubs have been, more than anything else, a shared experience. I will remember that this October, when they reach the World Series. I plan to take Alex with me. But first I will have to speak with his high school basketball coach. I do not imagine he will be happy about my son missing practice right before the start of the season, so I am prepared to explain that the Cubs do not play in a World Series every day. If necessary, there is a deal I am prepared to make.

Question: What was Malta's G.D.P in 2004?

The tax system, in particular, has been a boon. Some foreign companies can be structured to pay 5 percent in corporate taxes. Malta also has double taxation treaties with 65 countries, allowing individuals and businesses to avoid being taxed in two places. Significant tax advantages and a pro-business regulator have created a booming financial services industry. It now represents 12 to 15 percent of the country’s G.D.P., up from 6.3 percent in 2004. Online gambling companies have flocked to the island, as have hedge funds. With a strong corporate base, Malta sailed through the economic crisis relatively unscathed. The economy grew 3.5 percent in 2014. Unemployment is 5.8 percent, the fourth-lowest in Europe. Malta was looking to expand that economic growth through the citizenship program. Under the initial plan in 2013, the newly installed Labor Party government proposed selling passports for €650,000, with few other requirements for citizenship. Almost immediately, it drew protests. The country, critics argued, was not an economic basket case like other European nations trying similar programs. They also worried that the program would damage its reputation as an attractive place to do business. “We do not want to form part of a law which prostitutes Malta’s identity and its citizenship,” Mario de Marco, a vocal member of the opposition, said during the debate. The opposition took the program to the European Parliament in an effort to block it. While the Parliament condemned the program, it could do little else, because citizenship is controlled by national governments. To placate the Parliament and the opposition, the government raised the bar for citizenship. Strict due diligence standards were set to weed out money launderers and criminals. It also raised the cost and adopted a residency requirement. In addition to the €650,000 fee to the government, applicants must now invest €150,000 in government bonds, buy property for at least €350,000 or rent a place for at least €16,000 a year — all of which must be held for at least five years. “This is not ‘tick the box,’” said Mr. Cardona, the chief of the program. Mr. Hyzler, the lawyer, and others note that the newcomers are establishing real links to Malta. They are setting up bank accounts and buying health insurance, both of which are required. They are also joining country clubs and donating to local charities, which is encouraged. “Clients genuinely want to do more than just make the investment,” said Mark Stannard, managing director of the Maltese office of Henley & Partners, a residence and citizenship planning firm. He said a Saudi national with a Lebanese passport who had applied for Maltese citizenship had recently returned with a delegation of 12 to consider setting up businesses in aviation, life sciences and real estate.

Question: What genre of music does the photo book focus on?

The new photo book “Rap Tees: A Collection of Hip-Hop T-Shirts 1980-1999” by DJ Ross One documents 500 shirts, from hip-hop’s dawn — the first item is a Sugar Hill Gang shirt from 1980, a year after that group released “Rapper’s Delight,” widely considered the first commercial hip-hop single — to its turn-of-the-millennium ubiquity. All the shirts are advertisements, but they go about their job in vastly different ways: Some emphasize logos, others favor slogans or let photos do the talking; a rare few let artists have their way.

Question: What time did the boat stop?

SAN PEDRO, Calif. —  The boat stopped 300 yards off San Nicolas Island at 5:30 a.m. Monday, and Zach Jirkovsky was among those who stirred from his bunk. An environmental engineer, he had been to the island two years before for work, and ever since, he had been thinking about a return trip and about swimming the 70-mile channel back to the Southern California mainland. It was far too great a distance to bridge alone, so he asked his friends from a swim group called the Deep Enders in Ventura, Calif., to take on the challenge as a relay. Most of the Deep Enders were collegiate swimmers once upon a time, and all had serious channel crossings on their résumés.

Question: What does Leive also like asking?

I also like asking, “What would you be doing if you weren’t in this business at all?” I’m always curious about who people are outside of work, and I think you want to hire people who have something going on in their lives besides work. I have definitely seen that people who have full lives are not just happier but also tend to be better at their jobs. They don’t take everything so personally. People who can come up with a great idea and execute it, soup to nuts, are really valuable. We are never at a shortage for great ideas. But then there are people who have the project management piece of it, and that’s not something that I think people were hired for in magazines 25 years ago. Now it’s indispensable. The people on my team who can come up with an idea, put together a plan and presentation for getting it done, pick up the phone and find partners, are gold.

Question: What is the third force at work that the economists referenced to?

The third force at work is what economists call price discrimination. Businesses of all sorts have an incentive to charge different prices to different consumers based on their willingness and ability to pay. Movie theaters, for example, charge children less than adults for a ticket. Colleges have increasingly followed this practice by raising published prices and offering more financial aid based on a family’s resources. I often joke that Harvard should complete the process by setting tuition at $1 billion a year. But that sticker price applies only to the children of Bill Gates. Everyone else gets a special price, just for you.

Question: What right does academic censorship violate?

LONDON —  Students at Cardiff University have begun an online petition trying to bar Germaine Greer, the Australian feminist author, from speaking there next month because of her views on transgender women. Ms. Greer’s views are well known, but the campaign to bar her from giving a lecture has raised the issue of academic censorship, and the university swiftly rejected the petition in the name of free speech. Ms. Greer, 76, who is best known for her best seller, “The Female Eunuch,” has prompted outrage and protests in the past because of her comments. In a column in 2009 she wrote that transgender women seem like ghastly parodies and that a transgender woman was essentially “a man’s delusion that he is female.” According to Varsity, Cambridge University’s student newspaper, she suggested in January that transgender women do not know what it is like to have a vagina.

In a column in 2009 she wrote that transgender women seem like ghastly parodies and that a transgender woman was essentially “a man’s delusion that he is female.” According to Varsity, Cambridge University’s student newspaper, she suggested in January that transgender women do not know what it is like to have a vagina.

Question: What disease does NeuroLinx explore nerve damage on?

Dr. Coggan had earlier grown disappointed with the “establishment” science in which, he says, academic research and corporate profit priorities are increasingly indistinguishable. He bootstrapped the research laboratory with his own money and now supports it with funding from a variety of private individual contributions and scientific research grants. NeuroLinx now supports a range of research projects, including an exploration of the way dolphins sleep, an effort to create a computer simulation of the ubiquitous lab worm C. elegans (known as the Open Worm project), and an exploration of nerve damage in diseases like multiple sclerosis. Dr. Ohayon had done early research in the field of autonomous agents based on neural networks, computing models inspired by biological nervous systems, but stopped for almost a decade because of worries about military applications of the technology.

Question: Who have abused the A.L.P. for their own purposes?

The current expansion is happening without the mentorship of American forces, and under difficult circumstances. Thousands of men who had once been disarmed by government campaigns costing hundreds of millions of dollars are now being rearmed. The design is also being rolled out at a time when factional strongmen and elements of the former government in Kabul have mounted pressure on Mr. Ghani’s government, accusing him of exclusionary politics. In the wake of the Kunduz disaster, the strongmen, many of whom have pasts as northern warlords, have been pressing the government to use militias loyal to them in the fight against the Taliban. Some officials fear the militia expansion amounts to a political payoff to these strongmen, who have often used A.L.P. units for their personal business.

Question: Which two phone types does Wanderu support?

If you’re lucky, you’re reading this somewhere other than Manhattan. For all that it’s been celebrated in song, summer in the city is often a miserable affair. (The lyrics of that Lovin’ Spoonful hit are worth a second listen.) Best to get away, and any app that can help you do that as quickly as Wanderu is worth the space it takes up on your home screen. Not unlike travel websites like Kayak, Wanderu is a service for finding buses and trains to get you from here to there. It was launched two years ago in the Northeast, then gradually expanded its range before releasing iPhone and Android apps earlier this year. The service is now available in most of the United States.

Question: What are you likely to see when you watch T.V. commercials?

Once known for grim letters to fellow wealthy Americans warning of socialist apocalypse, Charles G. Koch now promotes research on the link between freedom and everyday happiness. Turn on “The Big Bang Theory” or “Morning Joe,” and you are likely to see soft-focus television spots introducing some of the many employees of Koch Industries. Instead of trading insults with Harry Reid, the Democratic Senate leader, Mr. Koch and his brother, David H. Koch, are trading compliments with President Obama, who this month praised the Kochs’ support for criminal justice reform at a meeting of the N.A.A.C.P.

Question: By 2020, how many years will it have been since the financial crisis began?

Deutsche Bank will sell its Postbank network of branches in Germany by listing the unit on the stock market next year. But it will continue to operate a network of branches with the Deutsche Bank brand in Germany and some other countries, albeit in streamlined form. “If anything you would have to say this is a muddling through,” said Mr. Smith, who has  written about Deutsche Bank’s strategy. Deutsche Bank remains enormously complex and difficult to manage, he said. “It’s a big bull of a bank,” Mr. Smith said. Mr. Smith pointed out that the name of the reorganization plan, Strategy 2020, means that even if Deutsche Bank meets all its goals, it will still have been 12 years since the beginning of the financial crisis “before they get to some kind of equilibrium.” Investors clearly shared Mr. Smith’s pessimism. Deutsche Bank shares sank 4.6 percent on Monday in Frankfurt trading.

Question: How much is a seat on Virgin Galactic?

Because of an editing error, an article on Dec. 20 about Xavier Gabriel, a Spaniard whose lottery business has become a national emblem of luck and a formidable merchandising brand, misstated, in some editions, the timing of the crash of the Virgin Galactic space plane, on which Mr. Gabriel has booked a $200,000 seat.

Question: What did the canine do?

I took my sweet little dog for a walk. He got agitated by a cat sitting on a porch, pulled free of me and raced toward the house, knocking over (and breaking) a large ceramic urn. I acknowledge that I am partly responsible for the damage. But don’t the homeowners have some responsibility, too, letting their cat sit out in the open? ANONYMOUS You break it; you bought it. “And your little dog, too,” growled the Wicked Witch of the West. The cat is free to sit on its porch with regal impunity.

Question: Who was hiding behind tennis's genteel code of conduct?

“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: Who made the recipe for chewy chocolate snowcaps

It may be a good weekend for some French toast amandine. Or for some light, fluffy pancakes. (If you’re hosting a sleepover and want to qualify for a parental-awesomeness badge, you may turn hard toward Bobby Flay’s recipe for double-chocolate pancakes with salted caramel sauce.) It’s definitely a good weekend for baking cookies. We’re partial to Julia Moskin’s recipe for bacon fat gingersnaps on a Saturday afternoon, and to Kim Severson’s recipe for chewy chocolate snowcaps as well. And while we’ve got the scale out, we’ll make up a batch of Julia’s perfect corn muffin mix, so we can knock down some muffins for breakfast in the middle of next week. (The next day, we’ll take the leftovers and slice them in half, then toast them in butter until they’re brown and crisp. Which makes the better breakfast? You decide!)
