Titbits from Odd News articles.
My dear friends,
Can you believe it?
A small restaurent in Cuddapah ( 300 kms from Hyderabad) owned by Mr.& Mrs.Muni Reddy sells about 2000 dosas @ 10 paise per dosa and this shop is often flooded with customers due to the taste of dosa with tomato, ginger & Chilly chutney.
This shop attracts many students, office goers, and poor to quench their stomachs.
Inspite of spiralling prices, still the owner of the shop maintains the price of Dosa at 10 paise to fulfill his mother's promise.
As this restaurent was started by his mother Subbamma 50 years back and his mother wanted him to run the shop after her death without raising any cost of eatables.
Is it not strange ?
According to Muni Reddy, he wanted to run this shop till his last breath to serve the mankind and has no hesitations to make any profits from eateries and he manages his profit to run his family out of the sales of other commodities like soap, ciggrettes, biscuits, candy's etc.,
He manages to get the rice from farmers directly at 40% cheaper than the market rate as the farmers do prefer to offer rice at lesser price for this noble cause of serving mankind the food at cheaper rates.

Wang, a woman from Dalian, Liaoning province, has a pet dog that is able to turn off the television and pretend to read a newspaper
After seeing its owner changing the channel with a remote control at home, the dog took a great interest in the device. One night she was watching TV when the dog snatched the controller and changed the channel.
"The dog will take a page from me and sit reading whenever I read a newspaper at home. Reading the news now seems to be one of the dog's preferred pastimes," she said, "The dog's skills are fascinating."

MADISON: Two children and their mother lived for about two months with the decaying body of a
90-year-old woman on the toilet of their home's only bathroom, on the advice of a religious "superior" who claimed the corpse would come back to life, authorities said.
The children - a 15-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy - cried hysterically on Wednesday after a deputy who came to their home in Necedah looking for Magdeline Alvina Middlesworth ordered them out because of the stench from her body.
The children were in foster care on Friday. Their mother, Tammy Lewis, and self-described "bishop" Alan Bushey remained in custody on felony counts of being a party to causing mental harm to a child.
"It's a sad case, and we'll continue to investigate it and try to ascertain just what occurred up there," Juneau County Sheriff Brent Oleson said yesterday. He said he had no further information on Bushey's religious affiliation.
According to the criminal complaint, Middlesworth's sister called sheriff's officials Wednesday and asked them to go to the home about 129 kilometers north of Madison to check on the woman, who had not been heard from for some time.
When Deputy Leigh Neville-Neil arrived at the house, she encountered Lewis, also known as Sister Mary Bernadett, the complaint said. Lewis, 35, initially refused to allow the deputy to check on Middlesworth, telling her that Middlesworth was on vacation and saying she had to check with her "superior" first.
But she eventually let the deputy in. The house smelled of incense and burned wood, and had religious materials everywhere and hymns playing on the stereo, according to the complaint.
rest in next.....Subbu
