Eat more fudge: prizes inside.

LAFAYETTE, Ind. - An Indiana woman whose diamond ring vanished while she was making fudge for a bake sale was despondent after scouring her home and finding no sign of it.

But Linda Vancel recently got a sweet surprise - a relative of the woman who bought the fudge found the ring when he bit into a piece of the candy.

Vancel said the white gold ring had sentimental value because it had belonged to her late mother, who wore it for 50 years before passing it on to her.

Linda Rhoades bought the fudge during a bake sale in West Lafayette. She took some of it to her sister-in-law's father, in hopes of cheering him up after recent health problems. When Charles Matson snacked on a piece of the fudge, he bit into something hard - the ring.

As soon as she got back from vacation, Rhoades got in contact with Vancel and returned the ring.

An appreciative Vancel said: "It renews your faith in people. Sometimes there's so much negative in the world, to hear a story like this is reassuring."

GPS - Global Positioning System or Getting People Squished? you decide:

BEDFORD HILLS, New York - A Global Positioning System can tell a driver a lot of things - but not when a train is coming.

A computer consultant driving a rental car drove onto train tracks Wednesday using the instructions his GPS unit gave him.

A train was barrelling toward him, but he escaped in time and no one was injured.

The driver had turned right, as the system advised, and the car somehow got stuck on the tracks at the crossing.

Metro-North railroad spokesman Dan Brucker says the man jumped out, tried to warn the engineer by waving and managed to get out of the way just before the train slammed into the car at about 100 kilometres per hour.

The car was pushed more than 30 metres during the fiery crash and some 500 train passengers were stranded for more than two hours during the Wednesday evening rush hour.

school - 1, industrial glue - pwned.

MEXICO CITY - A 10-year-old Mexican boy dreaded returning to school after Christmas break so much he glued his hand to his bed.

Sandra Palacios spent nearly two hours Monday morning trying to free her son Diego's hand with water, oil and nail polish remover before calling authorities, police chief Jorge Camacho said outside the northern city Monterrey.

"I didn't want to go to school because vacation was so much fun," Reforma newspaper quoted the boy saying.

Palacios said Diego sneaked into the kitchen in the early morning to get the industrial glue, which he then slathered on his right hand. She didn't hear him get up but later awoke and found him watching TV with his hand stuck to the bed, she told Mexican newspaper El Universal.

"I don't know why he did it," she told Reforma.

"He's a good boy but mischievous like all kids."

Diego's hand was fine and paramedics managed to unstick him in time for class.
