Britney Spears Baby Safety Night in Newark

NEWARK, N.J. -- The Newark Bears, a minor league baseball team, hosted a "Britney Spears Baby Safety Night" on Friday to spread the word about how to transport infants in vehicles.

The pop singer, 24, was photographed in a car with her baby in her lap, instead of strapped to a car seat in the back.

Another photo showed Spears driving with son Sean Preston in a car seat facing forward rather than facing backward.

Fans attending Friday night's game received information on baby car seat safety and a chance to win a free car seat from the American Automobile Association.

Those who dressed as a baby, brought a baby toy or a child under the age of 4 -- got in free.

Mel Gibson's Israeli Bodyguard

If Jews try to get at Mel Gibson when he finally shows his face on the street again, they'll have to do battle with an Israeli -- Mel's personal bodyguard for the last decade. The drunk-driving anti-Semite may not be crazy about the Jews, but that hasn't kept him from employing 45-year-old Avi Korein to protect him from crazies for all these years, according to FOX News. The former nightclub bouncer spent the '80s guarding the body of Bruce Willis.

A couple of Mel's friends are defending him. Patrick Swayze told GMTV in London that Mel isn't an anti-semite, as does Jodie Foster. Jodie laments that she wasn't out with him that night to keep him from drinking so much.
