A new study found metformin - a 20-cent pill used to manage type 2 diabetes - cut the risk of developing the deadly disease by up to 13 percent. Israeli researchers tracked 31,000 who took metformin for up to five years.

I'm convinced the robot revolution is finally here. I was at the world's largest electronics exhibition Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week, where engineers have for decades claimed that commercially available humanoids were just around the corner.

You could be looking at the ultra-realistic and creepy future of sex dolls. A new 'companion robot' made its debut at a major tech event in Vegas this week, sporting perfectly shaped breasts, a pert buttocks, thick lips and features of a youthful 20-something. Its creators, Realbotix, claim the $175,000 bot is to keep elderly gentlemen from being lonely.
