CULTURE: Cops Quickly Recover Stolen $50M Van Gogh

Police in Egypt recovered a stolen Vincent van Gogh painting valued at $50 million only hours after thieves took it. Police confiscated the artwork—it goes by the name Poppy Flowers or Vase With Flowers—at an airport in Cairo from an Italian man and woman. No word yet on how the thieves got it from the Mahmoud Khalil Museum in Cairo. It was stolen from the same museum once before in 1978, but that time it didn't turn up for another 2 years, notes AP.
