A woman who was pronounced dead by doctors came alive during her funeral procession - two days later.
She reportedly stirred and stood up while family members were burning firecrackers in accordance with local custom in the small Inidan village of Vepachettu in Allipuram, about 50km from Hyderabad, Tamil Nesan reported.
On Wednesday, Pinnitla Varalakshmi had been admitted to the King George's Hospital after she collapsed at her house while attending to her daily chores.
Doctors pronounced her dead on arrival and issued a death certificate.
While her "body" was being carried in a funeral procession on Friday, mourners saw her waking up, sending shivers down their spine. A relative, Nageswara Rao, said ambulance staff noticed her pulse and took her to a private hospital.
She was later pronounced dead again.

The Good Brother
Once upon a time, there were two brothers.
One brother was very mischievous, always getting into trouble
The other brother however, was very good.
He was always kind to animals, helped elderly neighbours, and led an exemplary life.
As time went on, the brothers stayed in touch but were never close.
The evil brother became a heavy drinker and a womaniser.
(Yeah - and your problem is ?)
The other brother was a devoted husband and father and supported many charities.
One day, the evil brother died.
Then, after a few years, the good brother passed away.
He went to heaven and was rewarded with a happy afterlife.
One day, he went to God and asked, "Where is my brother ? He died before me but I have not seen him here in heaven."
God replied, "As you know, your brother led an evil life, so he is not spending
eternity here in Heaven. He has been sent elsewhere."
"I'm sorry to hear that," the good brother replied. "But I do miss him and
wish I could see him again."
"You can see him if you wish," God said.
"I will give you the power to gaze into Hell."
So the power was granted and the good brother gazed into Hell. Before long, he saw his brother sitting on a bench.
In one arm, he held a keg of beer and, in the other, he cradled a gorgeous young blonde.
The good brother turned to God and said,
"I can't believe what I'm seeing. I have found my brother, and he has a keg of beer in one arm
and a beautiful woman in the other. Surely, Hell cannot be that bad ?"
God explained, "Things are not always as they seem................ The keg has a hole in it - the blonde doesn't !!"

Earthquake hits Myanmar near China and Thailand borders - March 24, 2011
A powerful earthquake hit Myanmar Thursday near its borders with China, Thailand and Laos, the U.S. Geological Survey said.
The quake hit in eastern Myanmar, about 55 miles (89 km) north of Chiang Rai, Thailand, the survey reported.
It had a magnitude of 6.8, the survey said, revising the estimate down from an initial reading of 7.0.
It was a relatively shallow quake, which can be very destructive.
The Geological Survey initially said the quake had a depth of 142 miles (230km), but it later revised its estimate to say the quake was 6 miles (10 km) deep, putting it fairly close to the surface.
A second quake hit about half an hour later, with a preliminary magnitude of 4.8, the USGS said.
There were no immediate reports of damage or injuries.
The center of the quake was 589 km (365 miles) northeast of Rangoon, the capital of Myanmar, and 772 km (479 miles) north of Bangkok, Thailand.
It was 104 miles (168 km) south-southwest of Yunjinghong, Yunnan, China.
A destructive tsunami is not expected, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said. In advice to government agencies, the center said the quake "is located too far inland and too deep inside the earth to generate a tsunami in the Indian Ocean."
Myanmar, which is also known as Burma, has been badly hit by natural disasters in the past few years.
A powerful cyclone in 2008 left an estimated 100,000 people dead, and another one two years later left 70,000 people homeless, the United Nations estimates.
The quake was significantly less powerful than the one that hit Japan two weeks ago, causing a tsunami, leaving thousands dead or missing, and prompting fears of a nuclear meltdown.
It was roughly comparable in magnitude and depth to last year's Haiti earthquake, which measured 7.0. More than 200,000 people died in the Haiti earthquake, and millions were affected.

That quake's center was only 9 miles below the surface and near congested population centers. Scientists said if the quake had been centered deeper down, the damage would not have been as severe
3-Year-Old Boy In China Weighs Nine Stone ( 57 Kg )
A three-year-old boy in China, who weighs nine stone, is giving a tough time to his parents.
Lu Hao is dangerously overweight, and at 9st 6lb is five times as heavy as other boys his age.
He is getting so big his family are frightened of him - and have given up trying to stop the youngster from gorging on huge plates of ribs and rice.
His parents claim he throws vicious tantrums if he doesn't get third or fourth helpings of dinner.
"We have to let him be as if we don't feed him he will cry non-stop," the Sun quoted mum Chen Huan from Dashan, Guangdong Province, as saying.
She said she has tried to cut down his meals in the past, but despite her best efforts he still managed to put on whopping 1.5st in the last year alone.
He has already been banned from nursery over fears his size might be a danger to other children, and usually plays alone at home.
Moving around is becoming tougher and tougher for the toddler, whose weight means he gets out of breath easily.
Ironically when Lu Hao was born he was underweight, at 5.7lbs, but he started piling on the pounds at three months old, and hasn't stopped since.
Dad, Lu Yuncheng, who struggles to pick him up, said: "His appetite is so good that for a meal he can eat three big bowls of rice, even larger than I and his mother..

The Divorce Letter
Dear husband,
I'm writing this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you forever. I've been a good woman to you for 7 years & I have nothing to show for it.
These last 2 weeks have been hell.
Your boss called to tell me that you quit your job today & that was
the last straw. Last week, you came home & didn't even notice I had a
new haircut, had cooked your favorite meal & even wore a brand new
pair of silk dress. You ate in 2 minutes, & went straight to sleep
after watching all of your games. You don't tell me you love me
anymore; you don't want anything that connects us as husband & wife.
Either you are cheating on me or you don't love me anymore; whatever the case, I'm gone.
Your Ex-Wife.
P.S. Don't try to find me. Your BROTHER & I are moving away to West
Virginia together! Have a great life!
The Reply
Dear Ex-Wife
Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter.
It's true you & I have been married for 7 years, although a good woman
is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my games so much because
they drown out your constant whining & griping Too bad that doesn't
work. I DID notice when you got a haircut last week, but the 1st
thing that came to mind was 'You look just like a boy!' Since my
mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say something nice,
I didn't comment. And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have
gotten me confused with MY BROTHER, because I stopped eating pork 7
years ago. About those new silk dress: I turned away from you because
the $49.99 price tag was still on them, & I prayed it was a
coincidence that my brother had just borrowed $50 from me that
morning.
After all of this, I still loved you & felt we could work it out. So
when I hit the lotto for 10 million dollars, I quit my job & bought us
2 tickets to Jamaica But when I got home you were gone. Everything
happens for a reason, I guess.
I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said
that the letter you wrote ensures you won't get a dime from me.
So take care.
Signed,
Your Ex-Husband, Rich As Hell & Free!
P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this, but my brother Carl was
born as Carla (woman). I hope that's not a problem.
Cheers! :)

The World's First 3D Sex Porn Film ( Shocked )
According to the source, it is 99.99% likely not to make release on Mainland screens, so quick-witted travel agencies have launched a tourist package to Taiwan that climaxes with a two-hour ogle at what is said to be the world's first 3D porn film.
Said to be loosely based on Li Yu's 17th century classical Chinese erotic literature "The Carnal Prayer Mat", this HK $20 million 3D re-update of the 1991 HK classic erotica stars HK porn star Vonnie Lui, Japanese AV actresses Yukiko Suo and Saori Hara opposite HK-based Japanese male model Hiro Hayama.
Holi: Know The Basics Of The Hindu Festival Of Colors
In 2011, Holi will be celebrated on March 19 and 20.Holi is an annual festival celebrated by Hindus on the final full moon of the month Phalguna. Usually falling in March, Holi marks the coming of spring and is commonly known as the "Festival of Colors."
The celebration of Holi usually spans over two days with the festivals beginning with public bonfires and gatherings on the night of the full moon. It continues the following day with public festivities that feature the wearing and throwing of colored powders and liquids.
Holi commemorates the mythological tale of Hiranyakashipu and his son Prahlada. Prahlada is a devotee of Lord Vishnu who protects him in a series of murder attempts by his father. The bonfires of Holi represent one of these attempts in which Hiranyakashipu attempted to burn his son alive.
Despite this significance, Holi is generally considered to be one of the least religious festivals in the Hindu calendar. It largely developed as an agricultural holiday to praise the change of seasons and is widely loved for the general loosening of social norms associated with its celebration. The holiday's festivities serve as a joyous bridge across the social divisions that normally play an important role in Hindu society. The holiday is an occasion for all people, regardless of gender, age, wealth, or caste to join in the fun that takes place in the temples and streets of India and in cities around the world with large Hindu populations.
As is the case with many Hindu festivals, the observance of Holi can vary widely from region to region. In some areas the festival can last for much longer than the standard two days, and many Holi festivals have specific rituals that are oriented to their history and the deities that are associated with them.
From A Mother With Love
Dear Child,
I am writing this slow because I know that you can't read fast.
We don't live where we did when you left home.
Your dad read in the paper that most accidents happen within 20 miles from your home so we moved.
I won't be able to send you the address, as the last family that lived here took the house numbers when they left so that they wouldn't have to change their address.
This place is real nice. It even has a washing machine. I'm not sure if it works too well though.
Last week I put a load in, pulled the chain, and haven't seen them since.
The weather isn't too bad here., it only rained twice last week, The first time it rained for three days and the second time for four days. The coat you wanted me to send you, your Uncle Steve said it would be a little too heavy to send in the mail with the buttons on, so we cut them off and put them in the pockets. We got another bill from the funeral home.
They said if we don't make the last payment on Grandma's grave, up she comes. John locked his keys in the car yesterday. We were worried because it took him two hours to get me and Shelby out.
Your sister had a baby this morning but I haven't found out what it is yet, so I don't know if you're an aunt or an uncle. If the baby is a girl, your sister is going to name it after me, she's going to call it Mom.
Uncle Pete fell in a whiskey vat last week. Some man tried to pull him out but he fought them off and drowned. We had him cremated and he burned for three days.
Three of your friends went off a bridge in a pick-up truck. Ralph was driving. He rolled down the window and swam to safety. Your two friends were in the back. They drowned because they couldn't get the tailgate down.
There isn't much more news at this time. Nothing much has happened.
PS, I was going to send you some money but the envelope was already sealed
