Oh Neil
Neil Young - Fork In The Road
Neil Young's new single Fork In The Road, a single cut, low budget video that features Neil playing air guitar with his head phones plugged into an apple. The lyrics aren't any subtler. There's a bailout coming but not for me / Its all going to those creeps watching tickers on TV / Download this / Sounds like shit.
Oh, and don't worry Neil, we will keep blogging 'til the powers out.

Nick Cage Japanese Commercials
A series of commercials Nickolas did for Sankyo Pachinko, a Japanese pinball/slot machine maker. Brilliant, although I'm not sure any match up to the benchmark set by the Governor of the World's sixth largest economy;

i guess the prince collabo at qtip's house of blues show wasn't as random as originally thought..

This is the first time there will be two shows at Fenway in one year, and will kick off the band’s 2009 Summer tour!" - AceTickets

Bombs for Bollywood
With all the Slumdog hype, and the ability of Bollywood songs to sell almost anything in India, the defense industry has stepped in. This is a video made by an Israeli arms firm Rafael for an Indian trade fair. Despite the absurdity, India is buying numerous missiles from Rafael, as one Indian defense officer said, “We are buying a whole host of missiles … and other equipment from Rafael. Their products are good. But this advertisement is quite tacky … like a C-grade Hindi movie song.” Apparently he was upset about the production value and not the fact that Israel thought Indians would lap up defense missiles if they were pitched in a Bollywood music video...
9 patients made nearly 2,700 ER visits in Texas
AP:
AUSTIN, Texas – Just nine people accounted for nearly 2,700 of the emergency room visits in the Austin area during the past six years at a cost of $3 million to taxpayers and others, according to a report. The patients went to hospital emergency rooms 2,678 times from 2003 through 2008, said the report from the nonprofit Integrated Care Collaboration, a group of health care providers who care for low-income and uninsured patients.
"What we're really trying to do is find out who's using our emergency rooms ... and find solutions," said Ann Kitchen, executive director of the group, which presented the report last week to the Travis County Healthcare District board.
The average emergency room visit costs $1,000. Hospitals and taxpayers paid the bill through government programs such as Medicare and Medicaid, Kitchen said.
Eight of the nine patients have drug abuse problems, seven were diagnosed with mental health issues and three were homeless. Five are women whose average age is 40, and four are men whose average age is 50, the report said, the Austin American-Statesman reported Wednesday.
"It's a pretty significant issue," said Dr. Christopher Ziebell, chief of the emergency department at University Medical Center at Brackenridge, which has the busiest ERs in the area.
Solutions include referring some frequent users to mental health programs or primary care doctors for future care, Ziebell said.
"They have a variety of complaints," he said. With mental illness, "a lot of anxiety manifests as chest pain."

NEW HAMPSHIRE HEADLINES!
Man accused of lying on floor to peek at woman
NASHUA, N.H. – A Massachusetts man has been arrested on charges he peeked at a woman dressing in a Nashua, N.H., store. Police told WMUR on Friday that the man was charged with lying on the floor and looking into a fitting room at Kohls. Police said the woman did not see him, but her mother spotted a man lying on the floor looking into the changing room.
Police said the man was arrested in Natick, Mass., in January on similar charges. He told police has been in the United States for about two years and is from Guatemala.

Cops: Man finds cell phone and demands $300 for it
SALEM, N.H. – Police arrested a school safety officer, saying he demanded $300 from a woman after finding her cell phone. The 30-year-old man, who works at Lawrence High School in Massachusetts, was charged with theft of lost mislaid property Saturday.
Police said the woman lost the phone at a Wal-Mart. The man found it and first told her she'd have to pay him $200 if she wanted it back. Police said he later upped the price to $300.
The woman called police, who set up a sting operation. The man was arrested after he met the woman at a race track parking lot. She gave the man an envelope containing $21.
After he was arrested, the man told police he was embarrassed and had made a mistake. He faces arraignment in Salem District Court next month.

The Dead on The View
Obviously "The Dead" have always been a nostalgia act by definition, but Bobby and Warren playing a Jerry tune under the GD name, on day time TV with Whoopsi still seems pathetic. Oh, and they never let Phil sing for a reason.
