Aviation regulators say there's been a rapid decline in staffing shortages at air traffic control facilities over the past week. That's given the Department of Transportation and the Federal Aviation Administration the confidence that more air traffic controllers are coming to work. Regulators lowered air traffic reductions at dozens of major airports from 6% of flights to 3% through the weekend, but they did not lift them entirely. The FAA said the restrictions were necessary to keep the airspace safe as the agency grappled with widespread staffing shortages of air traffic controllers during the government shutdown. But with the government reopened, air traffic controllers have finally received some of the back pay they earned, and most are now back on the job. Joel Rose, NPR News, Washington.

The 62 artifacts include a 100-year-old Inuit kayak wampum, belts, war clubs, masks and beaded moccasins. Pope Leo turned them over to the Canad Conference of Catholic Bishops. During an audience at the Vatican, A statement by the church said the pieces were a sign of dialogue, respect and fraternity. They were part of a controversial collection that sparked a debate over cultural items taken from indigenous peoples during colonial periods and the church's role in helping the Canadian government's forced assimilation policy, which some historians have called cultural genocide. The items will first go to the Canadian Museum of History, where they will be identified and and then a decision will be made about where they should ultimately go.
