A Ukrainian man, believed to be the world's oldest living person, celebrated his 116th birthday on Thursday with a few friends and family. Hryhoriy Nestor, who is also the world's oldest bachelor, joked that he attributed his long life to the fact that he never married. According to BBC reports, Nestor worked on a farm until he retired at age 100 and is now living with a relative who looks after him. He surprisingly has healthy hair on his head and recommends a diet of milk, cheese and potatoes with an occasional shot of vodka.

In a bid to make three endangered golden monkeys from China feel at home, the authorities at Los Angeles Zoo have paid $4,500 to an expert in the ancient Chinese art of feng shui. The Zoo will spend a total of $7. 4 million for the golden monkeys, which are brought on loan from China and are scheduled to appear at the zoo later this year. It is apparently the first use of this ancient Chinese art on animals. Fen Shui is the ancient Chinese practice of placement and arrangement of space to achieve harmony with the environment. It is environmental science that studies how the surrounding environments would affect the human life. It mainly focuses on the study of earth's magnetic field and geo-structure in relation to effects to human life.
