New York Times : Dick Stevenson Is Our Next Washington Bureau Chief
The Times reporter succinctly summed up the urgent challenge: "Is it possible to embrace complexity in a political and media culture that demands simple themes and promotes conflict?" As we enter the next chapter of complexity and conflict in Washington, we are pleased to announce that Dick will be our next bureau chief. Dick comes to the bureau chief's job after a nearly 40-year career at The Times, the last three as the Washington editor, working as a partner of outgoing bureau chief Elisabeth Bumiller. "Dick will be a superb bureau chief," Elisabeth said. Dick made the transition to editing, becoming the deputy Washington bureau chief in 2006, and served as political editor during the 2008 and 2012 elections.

Black Plastic Cooking Utensils Can Expose You to Toxic Chemicals?
However, scanners often have problems with black plastics because they don't reflect light. "People assume that black plastic can be recycled, but often it can't." But the demand for black plastics is incredibly large, so a company might want to use recycled plastics to keep up. Thus, any recycled black plastic contaminated with BFRs would simply carry those chemicals with it. At present, the best solution for parents worried about mouthing is keeping such objects, including black plastic toys, out of the reach of children.

NBA urges players to remain vigilant about home security measures amid rash of break-ins
The NBA sent a memo to team officials after Milwaukee Bucks star Bobby Portis and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley were victims of home invasions. However, while Conley was attending the NFL game, several miles away, his home in Medina, Minnesota, was targeted by thieves, police said. Elsewhere, the homes of NFL stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were broken into within days of each other last month, according to law enforcement reports. The NFL issued a similar warning memo to its teams this week. The NBA memo, relaying information from the FBI, said the theft rings "are primarily focused on cash and items that can be resold on the black market, such as jewelry, watches, and luxury bags."
