US woman turns 116

AN American woman has celebrated her 116th birthday but has no secret to share about living a long life.
"THERE'S nothing I can do about it," Jeralean Talley of Inkster, Michigan said ahead of her birthday on Saturday.
The Gerontology Research Group considers her to be the oldest person in the world, based on available records, followed by Susannah Jones of Brooklyn, New York, who turns 116 in July. "You're more likely to the win the lottery than to reach this age," said Robert Young of Gerontology Research. Talley bowled until she was 104 and still likes to fish. A daughter, Thelma Holloway, told the Detroit Free Press that her mother still has a sharp mind. She was born in Montrose, Georgia, in 1899 and moved to Michigan in the 1930s. Talley's husband died in 1988 at the age of 95. "Her No. 1 rule is to treat people how you want to be treated," said godson Tyler Kinloch, 21, who fishes with her.
