- In a minutes-long strike Sunday inside the world's most-visited museum, thieves rode a basket lift up the Louvre 's facade, forced a window, smashed display cases and fled with priceless Napoleonic jewels, officials said.
The daylight heist about 30 minutes after opening, with visitors already inside, was among the highest-profile museum thefts in living memory and comes as staff complained that crowding and thin staffing are straining security.
The theft unfolded just 250 meters (270 yards) from the Mona Lisa, in what Culture Minister Rachida Dati described as a professional "four-minute operation."

All four were brought to Harborview Medical Center, but the teen who was ejected died from his injuries at the hospital, SPD said.

- The chaotic parking situation at and near the Lynnwood City Center Link Station reached a breaking point during the Seattle Mariners’ postseason run.
On Wednesday night, Mary’s Towing said they towed 46 cars at the request of the company that owns the property of a strip mall right across 200th St. SW from the Lynnwood Sound Transit parking garage.
While the entire parking lot is private property, several people who work in some management capacity say there has been some leniency towards people parking in private, but legitimate parking spots.
Wednesday night, however, dozens of cars were parked on the foundation of an old strip mall to take the light rail to the Mariners game.

- Description
- Southern resident orcas have struggled to survive off Washington’s coast, and yet, researchers are still facing gaps when it comes to understanding and protecting them.
A new University of Washington study hopes to change that.
The project aims to track the sounds of marine mammals, such as the southern resident orcas, with underwater fiber optic cables.
It’s an effort to better understand and track these endangered mammals, and quantify the impact that human activity is having on them.
“This technology has been around for a couple of years, but it has been used for detecting low frequency signals, like earthquake signals,” said Dr. Shima Abadi, the lead researcher from UW Bothell School of STEM and UW School of Oceanography. “We are trying to push the limit to see if we can use this technology for detecting higher frequency ranges.”

- We’re on day 16 of the government shutdown and analysts say it’s already impacting the housing market, with the economic uncertainty spooking buyers.
“There are millions of government employees who are furloughed who are probably not feeling confident about making any large economic decisions,” said Dave Meyer, head of real estate investing at BiggerPockets, a real estate education company.
But people who don’t work for the federal government are feeling uncertain about the economy, too.
Redfin says pending sales dropped 15.2 percent in the Seattle market over the last month. That’s one of the biggest drops nationwide – only San Antonio saw a bigger drop at 15.8 percent.

Standing alone at the Capitol on the 13th day of the shutdown, the speaker said he was unaware of the details of the thousands of federal workers being fired by the Trump administration. It's a highly unusual mass layoff widely seen as way to seize on the shutdown to reduce the scope of government. Vice President JD Vance has warned of "painful" cuts ahead, even as employee unions sue.
“We’re barreling toward one of the longest shutdowns in American history,” Johnson of Louisiana said
