Story:
Japan, home to robot babies, musicians and pets,
now has its first humanoid
hottie - Sega's E.M.A.
Short for Eternal, Maiden, Actualization, the 38
centimetre, curvaceous
cyborg blows kisses, sings and shakes its grooved
things.
Using infrared sensors and battery power, the
diminutive damsel offers
smooches to nearby human heads, entering what
designers call its "Love
Mode".
Sega's Minako Sakanoue says target consumers are
men over 20.
SOUNDBITE: MINAKO SAKANOUE, MEDIA AFFAIRS, SEGA
TOYS:
"She's very loveable and though she's not a human,
she can act like
a real girlfriend."
Japan, home to almost half the world's 800,000
industrial robots, envisions
a $10 billion A.I. market in a decade.
E.M.A, who also hands out business cards, will
strut her way to Japanese
store shelves by September for about $175, and
Sega hopes to sell 10,000 of
the adult-oriented androids within a year.

| Flying Humanoid UFO in Mexico |
 |
Sightings of a flying HUMAN above the skies of
Mexico could be genuine, says a paranormal expert.
A mysterious woman-like figure was caught on
camera as it hovered above mountains in Nuevo Leon
City Mexico.
UFO watchers said the figure appeared to be
wearing a cape leading to claims that it was a
witch or wizard when it was first seen in 2006.
Now Mexico's leading Ufologist Anna Luisa Cid says
the sightings were true after carrying out her own
investigations.
She said: I think that the possibility is there.
An imaginary object is not recorded on film, nor
it produces over 40 witnesses.
Nuevo Leon UFO club managed to film the spooky
flying character.
And policeman Leonardo Samaniego also claimed a
floating person had dropped out of the sky and
landed on his bonnet.
Ms Cid told the Ghosttheory website: In
conclusion, from my professional point of view,
both cases are real.
From officer Samaniego's experience to the UFO
club's video. I do not believe the entity to be a
witch, but I do know that it is something that we
cannot explain.

| RoboCup 2007 Final, Humanoid League |
 |
Team Osaka (Japan) vs. NimbRo (Univ. of Freiburg,
Germany)
The 2007 final was one of the best humanoid soccer
games ever, if not the best. Team Osaka played
with one goalie and one field player while NimbRo
used two field players. The Osaka robots were very
quick to approach the ball and to kick it across
the field. The NimbRo robots excelled in
one-on-one fights for the ball and also
demonstrated nice team play. The exciting game was
open until the end. The final score was 8:6 for
NimbRo.
