Chili pepper delivery spices up remote seed vault
WASHINGTON — Wenk's Yellow Hots, Pico de Gallos and the unpredictably hot San Juan "Tsiles" chili peppers have arrived at a "doomsday" vault in the Arctic.
Sen. Ben Cardin says he and other congressmen delivered seeds from the pepper varieties on Sunday to a seed bank on the Svalbard archipelago.
Operators say the Svalbard Global Seed Vault has the world's most diverse repository of crop seeds and is a safeguard against war or natural disasters that could wipe out food crops.
In addition to peppers, seeds for plants including peanuts and melons were sent to the vault.
Maine woman gets stolen ring back after 28 years
AUBURN, Maine — A Maine woman's high school class ring is back in her possession 28 years after it was stolen.
Michelle Bilodeau hadn't seen her Edward Little High School class of 1983 ring since it was stolen during her junior year.
But on July 9, it was returned to her by a stranger who tracked her down on Facebook.
Angie Foster says she found the ring years ago at a roller skating rink. She had held onto it and called the high school to figure out who had the initials MMB that were engraved on the band.
Even after she learned Bilodeau's name, it took years for Foster to find her. It wasn't until Foster looked for her on Facebook that the search paid off.

Tortoise shows up in NH 4 years after disappearing
BRENTWOOD, N.H. — A New Hampshire couple says a 25-pound pet tortoise has reappeared four years after escaping from its pen.
Mike and Christine Wellington say their African spur thigh tortoise, Lucy, made off from their business in Brentwood. But on Friday, the Wellingtons received a call from a neighbor half a mile up the road that Lucy had reappeared.
The Wellingtons say they're certain the tortoise is theirs because of the unusual protruding bumps on its back.
