The 25-year-old actress is in town to promote her new gambling flick, 21. The film opens in theaters across England this Friday, April 11. If it’s any indication, 21 was number one at the box office the last two weekends, so it shouldn’t have any problems pulling in overseas audiences this weekend.

Roboticists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have created a robot named Nexi that expresses emotions the same way humans do by the use of a highly mobile face.

Nexi's head and face were designed by Xitome Design with MIT. The expressive robotics started with a neck mechanism sporting 4 degrees of freedom (DoF) at the base, plus pan-tilt-yaw of the head itself. The mechanism has been constructed to time the movements so they mimic human speed.

Nexi's face has been designed to use gaze, eyebrows, eyelids and an articulate mandible to communicate a greater range of different emotions.

Nexi has a color CCD in each eye as well as an indoor Active 3D infrared camera in its head and four microphones to support sound localization.

The chassis for the robot is also advanced; it is based on the uBot5 mobile manipulator developed by the Laboratory for Perceptual Robotics UMASS Amherst. The mobile base can balance dynamically on two wheels; Nexi has what amounts to a Segway-like body. The arms can pick up 10 pounds; the plastic covering of the chassis can detect human touch.

Now, Nexi needs to learn to react emotionally, like the Kansei robot created at Meiji University's School of Science and Technology. Nexi's range of emotional expression can also be compared with that of the South Korean EveR2-Muse Robot; she has a more human face. Also, the WD-2 Face Morphing robot uses a much more flexible facial structure.

Cameron Diaz, 36, made some sexy bikini pictures in this month's GQ issue. Despite the web critics, as they are saying that this is not Cameron, we must admit that she did a great job at the photo session. Cameron played in Jim Carrey's "The Mask," "My Best Friend's Wedding," and "There's Something About Mary."

Petra Nemcova attends the 5th Annual Can-Do Awards Dinner Marking the 25th Anniversary of Food Bank For New York City held at Chelsea Piers on Monday.

Food Bank For New York City was founded in 1983 to address the growing needs of people seeking emergency food assistance in New York City.

Petra, 28, was seen back in February alongside actor Sean Penn, but both have denied any romance.

Gwyneth Paltrow keeps things interesting in gladiator-esque heels at the 2008 Can-Do Awards Dinner at Pier 60 at NYC’s Chelsea Piers on Monday. The event marked the 25th Anniversary of the hunger-relief program, Food Bank For New York City.

Food Bank NYC unfortunately has seen a sharp drop in food donations over the past year: “We have less food in our warehouse. We’re practically seeing empty shelves every week in the warehouse, when we used to be brimming over and able to turn food around really quickly. What that means is that there’s less food in food pantries and soup kitchens around the city, and you literally have people standing in line for hours at a time waiting for food, only to be turned away because the food runs out.”

Donate now!

PAMPERING PRINCESS

Kate Walsh makes her regular visit to the Kate Somerville Skin Health Experts clinic on Melrose Place in Los Angeles on Monday.

The 40-year-old Private Practice star was seen picking up her car at the valet stand.

The Washington Post has some great posts of Kate talking about sex education when she was at Capitol Hill. Here’s how she address the topic of 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears being pregnant: “I don’t know about setting us back. But it’s clear that sex is still not a topic that it is comfortable for people to engage in in this country. Sadly, I think there’s still a huge lack of education — not just with educators, but also with parents and children. I think innately, it’s just an uncomfortable thing to talk about. Even the most progressive, educated parents have a hard time. There is this sort of biological, psychological emotional difficulty when it comes to really educating and talking frankly about sex with your kids. I think it’s probably just human nature. It’s hard to imagine your kids becoming sexually active and really accepting that and having frank conversations about it.”
