BECKHAM STILL COLLECTS AUTOGRAPHS OF HIS HEROES.

Football star David Beckham doesn’t mind fans asking for his autographs because he still asks his sporting heroes for their signatures. Beckham admits he is often inundated with autograph requests and would never turn a fan away because of his own hobby of collecting singed items.
Contactmusic com quoted him as saying “ The whole experience of wanting someone’s autograph is something special, especially when you’re a little kid and you have heroes whom you look up to. I’ve been incredibly lucky-I’ve met so many great people like Muhammad Ali and Michael Jordan so that’s quite a few autographs. I’ve got all that I’m proud of. Also, when I was young I got one of my heroes’ autographs Bryan Robson. So I was very luck.

THE LOVE GURU

Mike Myers was mad as hell. As a a comedian, he is thick-skinned enough to withstand jokes at his expense and even scathing attacks by critics. But the relentless campaign by the self-styled Hindu leader—leader Rajan Zed against his film The Love Guru had tipped the balance for Myers.
“There is one dude who lives in the desert and has a tiny congregation, who has not seen the film,” Myers said, earlier last week, referring to Zed who is based in Nevada “ And he still decided that potentially the film will hurt his feelings. When he sees the film, he will see that what Guru Pitka (Myer’s characterin The Love Guru) believes in is a fictional, mythical, non-denominational belief system.” The film and Guru Pitka’s teachings had nothing to do with Hinduism, Myers added, as he set out to promote the film.
The Hindu American Foundation—issued its own press release. Members of the group had attended a screening of the film in Minneapolis. The Love Guru, the release said, was vulgar, but definitely not Hinduphobic.
“The film was vulgar, crude and, in the opinion of many og out attendees, too often tasteless in its puerile choice of humor. Very few of the Hindus, viewing the film, however, found it overly anti-Hindu or mean-spirited, indeed no Hindu or Sanskrit terms beyond “ashram” are ever used in the film.”

Formula 1 fan could soon compete against racing aces like Kimi Raikonen and Lewis Hamilton, all from the comfort of their living room, thanks to a new game being developed by a company from the Netherlands.
Iopener Media is developing a patented system that makes use of real-time GPS data from the racing events and pumps it out to a compatible games consoles and PCs, allowing players to a compete against their favorite F1 racers.

TALKING TEDDY BEAR ROBOT TO GUIDE MOTORIST

Japanese scientists have come up with a new kind of GPS device: a talking teddy bear.

The robot bear, which stands one foot tall, is placed on the car dashboard to guide motorists on what roads they should take.

It can also point confused drivers in the right direction with the help of the six joints installed in its arms and neck.

Developed by robotics firm IX Research Corporation, the bear has an extra feature-it has been programmed to offer information about local landmarks when its head is rubbed.

However, the bear also has serious safety responsibilities.

Scientists have programmed it to say “ You haven’t been drinking, have you?” if it detects alcohol on a driver’s breath.

Sudden acceleration or breaking also results in the bear exclaiming, “ Watch out! “- a trait likely to infuriate motorists weary of criticism from back seat drivers.

The robotics firm hopes to have the new technology on the market in Japan next year.

However, further improvements are planned.
