unicorns, grated cheese, superheroes, friends, dance moves, sunlight, planes, and music: these are a few of my favorite things

hearts and robots

I provide for you but don't feel
the perfect woman: "I provide for you but don't feel"

Robot for hire!

A japanese company is hiring out a number of 113cm-tall robots that can do a number of tasks, from giving directions or handing out balloons.

"Just give it electricity, and a robot can work for long hours, even doing repetitive work, and you don't have to worry about labour laws."

In other news, scientists (there they go again) have isolated a master heart stem cell in mice that give rise to cardiac muscle cells, smooth muscle lining the aorta, and endothelial cells that form coronary blood vessels.

Now all I need is for someone to develop a robot heart that won't get tired, never complain, keep me at optimum performance levels and never, ever break.
