The ticket was enough

Two men bought tickets to the Museum of Applied Arts in Vienna. They were not masked. They walked into a Van Cleef and Arpels show, broke a glass case with a hammer, and took a platinum necklace of more than 200 carats. Queen Nazli of Egypt wore it in 1939, at her daughter's wedding. The men left on foot. Police still hunt them.

Sliman Mansour died in Jerusalem, at 79, after a long illness. For decades he painted faces and land in Palestine. The paintings stay. The hand is gone.

A 12TB Steam dump spilled more than a decade of PC games that did not ship. Cut rooms from Portal 2. Hints of Half-Life 2: Episode 3. The unused maps are public now.

IBM and the University of Chicago ran a quantum job on 70 encoded qubits. The machine finished in about 15 minutes. Ordinary computers, the paper says, could not keep up in practice. Near Barstow, NASA cut a ribbon on Deep Space Station 23, a new Goldstone dish.

In Somerville, adults 40 and older took a switching test after a month with a HEPA purifier at home. They were about 12 percent faster than after a sham filter. The paper reports a number. It does not tell a household what to buy.

The FDA cleared Mimrylo, from Takeda and Protagonist, for a rare blood cancer. Juul won clearance for an updated vape with optional age checks. After AstraZeneca's Wainua trial failed, Alnylam stood by its own heart drugs.

Someone ripped old CDs and found Professor Murder Rides the Subway, a short dance punk EP that still hits. IEEE posted Microduck, a small robot, in the Friday reel.

A ticket gets you in. A leak names what never opened. A painting keeps a face after the painter is gone.
