Tracy Morgan pictured in a wheelchair as he is spotted for the first time since his car crash

Comedian Tracy Morgan pictured heading out in a wheelchair with his left leg bandaged as he's spotted for the first time since he was injured in a horrific crash that killed his friend, comedian James McNair. Tracy Morgan left a rehabilitation facility in New Jersey yesterday, five weeks after the limousine van he was riding in was hit from behind by a Wal-Mart truck on the New Jersey Turnpike.

Morgan was taken home where he will embark on 'aggressive out-patient treatment' to heal from the serious injuries he suffered. The comedian, who suffered a broken leg and broken ribs, is suing Wal-Mart over the crash, saying that Wal-Mart should have known that its driver had been awake for over 24 hours and that his commute of 700 miles from his home in Georgia to work in Delaware was 'unreasonable.' The suit also alleges the driver fell asleep at the wheel, causing the crash.. culled from linda ikeji blog.

Video: Watch 3 years old dead and resurrected !!!!!

A cellphone video has captured the incredible moment a 3yr old girl woke up during preparations for her own funeral in a church in Aurora, Zamboanga del Sur, in the Philippines. The girl had been declared dead by doctors at a local hospital on Friday July 11th after being taken there the day before suffering from a fever for several days.

Her parents took her to the church the next day, with family and friends gathered for the burial when the unthinkable happened. It was only when one of her parents' neighbours removed the lid of the coffin to arrange the girl's remains that she saw the little girl's head move. She immediately alerted the girl's father who quickly removed her from the coffin and took her to hospital. It was later found that the girl was in a state of comatose, not dead. click on the link to watch the video....
