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.

What makes a sandwich a sandwich? Could one define the nature of a burrito as simply a Mexican sandwich? A Worchester judge presiding over a legal dispute between Panera Bread Co. and Qdoba Mexican Grill answered these tough culinary questions last week.
