Robots Want to Rule, Britney Wants Namibian Birth, and Clooney Replaces Cruise

1. Perhaps because she wants to be known for having no original thought, Britney Spears is contemplating having her next baby in Namibia. "Deputy Tourism Minister Leon Jooste confirmed that he received a telephonic enquiry from Spears' office to have her second baby born in Namibia," the Namibian Broadcasting Corporation said. Mission Target Britney Spears continues. (AP)

2. Tom Cruise might want to downplay his Scientology-ness aka craziness if he doesn't want to be downgraded in Hollywood. The mill has it that he was passed on a $200 million movie--for George Clooney, no less. (FoxNews)

3. Move over World Cup, RoboCup is vying for public attention as well. In its 10th year, the competition is what it sounds like: robots from different countries playing soccer. If only its mission statement didn't sound so creepy: "By the year 2050,develop a team of fully autonomous humanoid robots that can win against the human world soccer champion team."
