What I Cannot Change

I know what makes me comfortable
And I know what makes me tick
And when I need to get my way
I know how to pour it on thick
Cream and sugar in my coffee
Right away when I awake
I face the day, and pray to God
I won’t make the same mistakes

All the rest is out of my hands
I will learn to let go what I cannot change
I will learn to forgive what I cannot change
I will learn to love what I cannot change
But I will change, yeah I will change
Whatever I, whenever I can

Yeah I don’t know my father
Or my mother well enough
It seems like every time we talk
We can’t get past the little stuff
The pain is self-inflicted
I know it’s not good for my health
But it’s easier to please the world
Than it is to please myself

All the rest is out of my hands
I will learn to let go what I cannot change
I will learn to forgive what I cannot change
I will learn to love what I cannot change
But I will change, yeah I will change
Whatever I, whenever I can

Well I know I can’t care about how everyone else really feels
I have enough hurt of my own to heal

I will learn to let go what I cannot change
I will learn to forgive what I cannot change
I will learn to let go what I cannot change
I will learn to forgive what I cannot change
I will learn to love what I cannot change
But I will change, yeah I will change
Whatever I, whenever I can

Hair-Washing Robot from Panasonic

Panasonic is one of just a few companies that develop device that could assist the elderly and the disabled. In 2009 the company unveiled a Robotic Bed that allows integrating a wheelchair into the bed and now it brings to public attention its latest invention - the hair-washing robot.

Panasonic's hair-washing robot was developed with the goal of reducing the burden for caregivers working in hospitals and different health care institutions. The device incorporates the company's robot hand technology with 16 fingers that are used to wash hair and sponge down the shampoo bubbles.

The two robotic hands scan the human head in 3D while moving and calculating.

Panasonic's latest invention remembers the shape of the head in order to apply the right amount of pressure when massaging and shampooing, reports Japan Today.

It is worth mentioning that each of the two robotic arms features 3 motors combined with power detection sensors. The two are used to control swing, press and massage movements.
