Good deed from a pharmacist in the Turkish city of Edirne
The manager of a pharmacy in Edirne, Aytach Yashin, found 10,000 EUR in the site and went looking for their owner, 24rodopi.com reported.
He looked at the security camera footage and came across Bulgarian businessman Faik Donat, who lost money while buying drugs. The recording showed Faik taking a credit card out of his bag to pay the bill, but did not notice how the money fell out of the bag, Turkish media write.
Yashin managed to contact the Bulgarian, who was already traveling to Bulgaria and did not even suspect that he had lost a large sum of money. “Everyone says the Turks are reliable people. I made sure of that myself today. “I am very happy,” said Faik Donat.
The Scandinavian countries are known as expensive destinations for which tourists have to prepare a higher budget for all their experiences – from accommodation and transport to food and museums.
Denmark is no exception, but at least when it comes to transport, this summer fans in the North have the opportunity to save and redirect this part of their budget to other pleasant things.
The popular Rejsepas ticket for locals and tourists for an 8-day unlimited train ride returns this summer. It costs 399 kroner (about 53 euros) and allows each adult to travel unlimited on the trains of the Danish national railway company for 8 consecutive days.
The ticket is also valid for Arriva buses and trains, for the Copenhagen metro and S-trains, as well as for the Letbane system in Aarhus and a number of local trains.
The ticket price is almost equal to the price of a standard train ticket from Copenhagen to Aarhus.
The ticket also has a version for children under 16, and its price is 199 crowns (about 27 euros). But if an adult travels with the 8-day ticket, he is entitled to take up to two children under the age of 12 for free. Does this sound like a plan for an epic family trip to Andersen’s country?
With the ticket you can spend a few days in Copenhagen, which you can combine with a tour of cities and landmarks in the diamond region of Aarhus (European Capital of Culture in 2017) and Odense (the birthplace of the children’s writer, where his new museum is located). .
The ticket is intended for summer travel and must be used between June 25 and August 7. Rejsepas goes on sale on June 1, and the number of tickets is limited to 75,000, so it’s a good idea to buy yours early.

The prosecutor’s office has launched an investigation to establish the circumstances of the accident.
Any cat owner would be heartbroken if for some reason the cat ignores him. People can really get sad if we play with our pet, take care of him, pet him and try to make his life fun, but he somehow doesn’t pay attention to us.
Cats are much more independent animals when compared to dogs and can actually spend a lot of time alone and that is good for them. While most pet animals are actually social, some of them can really just be…terrible.
How do we know if our cat is angry about something or wants to be left alone?
Your cat wants to spend time alone
Just as we humans sometimes need to not talk to other people for a number of reasons, affectionate friends can also have these moments.
Cats can be quite independent animals and have their own emotions and moods. Some people, like people, are influenced by the weather and when autumn comes, they may not be in the mood to play or cuddle you, but prefer solitude. If your cat does not have a health problem – eats normally, is not aggressive, uses his toilet, but does not pay much attention to you – maybe he just wants to be alone. As sad as we are, we have no choice but to respect that.
We can always try to lure her with a fishing rod or a toy, but we should not bother her too much so as not to incur her wrath.
Your cat is stressed
Many cats will choose to ignore something they perceive as a threat or stress. If the purring friend has a negative experience in the past with people who have quarreled with him or even hurt him – maybe he will be skeptical of you at times, even if you have never treated him badly.
Sometimes cats are offended by some of our actions – for example, if you accidentally stepped on it and it hurt – your cat will certainly hiss, and may not be so friendly for a while.
If something has changed in your home – you have moved, you have adopted another kitten, a new person has come to live with you, you have given birth to a baby, etc., then your cat may experience this change in its own way. Purring animals are adaptable, but the transition is certainly not easy for everyone and they need time. Some representatives may become a little more rude to you in “protest” and choose to ignore you and ignore you.
Make sure you have a place for your cat that is only hers and give her time.
Your cat is not feeling well
It is not uncommon for purring animals to become more lonely when in pain. Too many cats will not make it clear that something is wrong and will seem to be hiding their symptoms. If your cat has suddenly started to behave and no longer responds to your voice (and used to), does not greet you at the door and may seem a more lethargic idea – it may be good to visit the vet.
Your cat is angry or offended
These friends can often be quite vindictive. Many of them “offend” their owners when they go on vacation for a few days and “abandon” them. In such a situation, you go home, waiting to see your pet, but he ignores you because he wants to show the pain you caused him.
These animals can be very sensitive and understand much more than we think. They are not evil and will certainly forgive you, but maybe you should try to deserve it – maybe with more games, food and of course treats.
Older people may have problems
Ignoring behavior may be more typical of adult cats, which little by little they no longer feel in their prime. Some gradually begin to become deaf or lose their energy and prefer to spend their time asleep instead of playing as you are used to.
This is a normal stage in the lives of these friends, so as they get older they may become calmer and less excited about your presence. However, if you suspect that your purring friend is in pain or something is wrong with his health – be sure to visit the vet.
If your cat has been ignoring you almost since the day she lived with you – maybe she just has that character and, apart from learning how to communicate with her and respect her privacy – you have no choice. On the other hand, if the purring companion has suddenly lost interest in you – it may be good to check his health.
Hundreds of English people with a fake ticket or no pass at all
The chaos and the huge organizational blunder that marked the final of the Champions League continue to be a leading topic in the days after the most important match in European football for the season.
The topic even displaced the match itself, in which Real (Madrid) beat Liverpool and on the 14th step on the football throne of the Old Continent.
Unprecedented in recent decades, the match has been delayed by more than 30 minutes.
The reason was that thousands of Liverpool fans had not yet taken their seats in the stands, but were pushing and forming huge crowds in front of the very few remaining open entrances to the Stade de France in Paris.
The situation also led to tensions, there was the use of tear gas by the police, and eventually thousands of fans later joined the tribune. Some have never been able to do so.
Naturally, after such a huge blunder, the accusations began immediately.
Initially, UEFA and the organizers blamed the English fans for leaving the stadium too late, underestimating the traffic in Paris and the slower entry into the stadium itself.
Of course, the respondent said that the organization was under criticism, and for several thousand supporters only one open entrance was provided.
French Sports Minister Amélie Ouedda-Castera commented on the situation, and the chaos was caused by thousands of “red” fans who tried to invade the Stade de France without tickets or with fake ones.
“The whole problem arose because of the massive attempts of Liverpool fans to enter the stadium either without a ticket or with a fake one.
They merged with the crowd, pushed past people with regular passes, and were difficult to identify. Besides, it was these violators who caused the tension.
“I sincerely regret that the tear gas of the police injured women and children, which will leave a stain on Paris,” he said.
UEFA continues to insist that the cause of the commotion is the late arrival of fans in the area of the stadium.

The archeological expedition has been working in Saqqara since 2018
An Egyptian archeological mission in the Saqqara necropolis has discovered 250 richly painted wooden sarcophagi and 150 bronze statuettes of ancient Egyptian deities.
This is the largest number ever discovered in the funeral complex near Cairo, the Ministry of Tourism and Cultural Monuments said. The artifacts date back about 2,500 years.
The statuettes depict the deities Bastet, Anubis, Osiris, Isis and Hathor, as well as tools used for rituals dedicated to Isis. Among the finds is a statue of the priest, architect and high official from the time of the Third Imhotep dynasty. Archaeologists have also found cosmetics such as charcoal eye lines, as well as combs, bracelets, earrings and necklaces.
The leader of the team, the Secretary General of the Supreme Council for Antiquities Mustafa Waziri explained that in one of the sarcophagi a papyrus written in hieroglyphs was found, which may contain stanzas from the Book of the Dead. The papyrus was sent to a laboratory at the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square in Cairo, where it will be examined.
The sarcophagi will be transported to the Great Egyptian Museum in Giza, the opening of which is one of the most anticipated events in Egypt.
The archeological expedition has been working in Saqqara since 2018 and the announced discoveries are not the first. Among the ancient artifacts found so far are sarcophagi and mummies of humans and animals.
Russian president discusses with Erdogan the possibility of unhindered transportation of goods across the Black and Azov Seas – “in coordination with Turkish partners”
Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a telephone conversation with his Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan that Russia is ready to allow the unimpeded export of grain from Ukrainian ports in coordination with Turkey, Reuters reported on 30 of May.
During the conversation, Putin said that Russia could export significant amounts of food and fertilizers if sanctions against the country are lifted, according to transcripts of the conversation.
“During the conversation, the emphasis was on ensuring safe navigation in the Azov and Black Seas after the mines are removed,” the Kremlin said. “Vladimir Putin stressed Russia’s readiness to facilitate the unimpeded maritime transport of goods in coordination with Turkish partners. This also applies to the export of grain from Ukrainian ports.”
Russia and Ukraine together account for about 29 percent of the world’s wheat exports, mainly through the Black Sea, and 80 percent of sunflower oil. Ukraine is also a major producer of corn.
The two, Putin and Erdogan, discussed the results of a recent visit to Turkey by a Russian delegation led by Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak, as well as the state of bilateral co-operation, mainly in trade and economic affairs, the Kremlin said in a statement. TASS.
The Turkish presidency’s communications directorate, quoted by Turkish media and world agencies, quoted Erdogan as saying that Turkey was ready to host a meeting between representatives of Russia, Ukraine and the United Nations in Istanbul. The Turkish leader also said that steps should be taken as soon as possible to achieve peace in Ukraine, as well as to eliminate the negative effects of the war.
The Turkish head of state also stressed that Turkey is ready to participate in a monitoring mechanism in Ukraine if Moscow and Kyiv agree.
The representative of the Unetice culture had fair skin, brown hair, a prominent chin and a miniature figure adorned with bronze and gold jewelry and a beautiful amber necklace.
In the course of their new study, scientists were able to find out what a woman who lived near the Czech city of Pardubice looked like in the Bronze Age, writes Expats.cz.
New forms of DNA analysis, plus extraordinarily well-preserved personal items, have made it possible to compile a very accurate appearance.
The woman, who, according to experts, died at about the age of 35, came from the highest social strata. She had fair skin, brown hair, wide-set brown eyes, a prominent chin, and a petite figure adorned with bronze and gold jewelry and a beautiful amber necklace.
Her grave is the richest for a woman of the Unetice culture, a group of people who lived in Central Europe from about 2300 to 1600 BC.
The woman was buried with five bronze bracelets, three bronze pins, two gold earrings, and a three-row amber necklace with over 400 beads. Moreover, as scientists note, this necklace has no analogues among the finds of this period.
Accurate anthropological reconstruction was made possible by the almost complete preservation of the skull, as well as DNA extracted from the bones. The analysis not only confirmed the sex, but also provided information about the color of the skin, hair and eyes.
“It soon became apparent that the local burial was a real goldmine, not only in terms of the richness of the funerary decorations of the local dead, but especially in terms of the wealth of completely unique information about this period,” the researchers explained.
The graves of this era in Bohemia have a large amount of amber, which makes them unique compared to other monuments in neighboring regions. Amber proves that in the Bronze Age there were inter-regional contacts between the locals.
