A Canadian man, apparently unable to find the perfect woman, has done the next best thing — he's built himself one.

Le Trung, a 33-year-old software engineer who lives with his parents in Brampton, Ontario, a suburb of Toronto, says he's spent about $20,000 so far on Aiko, a 5-foot-tall female android with clear skin, a slim if shapely figure and a wonderful disposition.

A Chinese schoolboy narrowly escaped death after being accidentally shot through the head with a 16-inch arrow.

"It is a miracle he survived the accident," said one medic.

Doctors have warned his parents he still faces a risk of infection and even further operations.
