It's amazing how much can happen when a Democrat takes over. California has quickly emerged out of a deficit thanks to Governor Jerry Brown. It's no BS. By the time Governor Schwarzenegger left office the state had a $25.4 billion deficit and within two years, the state now has a surplus of $851 million. But politics aside, the Terminator did sign the world's largest anti-global warming law before he left office... Giving credit to TIME,
I'd like to thank them for showing us the many ways we can help
save the environment. Just one person can make a difference,
and
it starts with YOU!

Arnold Schwarzenegger may have signed the world's toughest
anti-global-warming law, but it is Democrat Terry Tamminen, his
environmental adviser, who is emerging as the state's real Terminator,
winning industry support and the endorsement of a Republican Governor
for a mandate to reduce the state's emissions 80% by 2050.
But thwarting climate change isn't a solo effort. Tamminen left his
official post to build a national response to global warming one state
at a time. "I am trying to Johnny Appleseed what California has done,"
Tamminen says. His goal is to create a de facto national climate plan
out of individual efforts in the 50 states. "He is crisscrossing the
country and spreading the word," says Karl Hausker, deputy director of
the Center for Climate Strategies. "Terry gets state leaders interested
in doing this." Hausker's nonpartisan, nonprofit group handles the
technical details after Tamminen plants his seeds. Nineteen states have
developed or are developing aggressive climate plans based on the work
of Hausker's group and Tamminen. So much progress is being made at the
state and regional level, Tamminen says, that "by the time that there is
a new Administration in the White House, a majority of Americans will
live in states with a meaningful plan that deals with the climate-change
issue."

Arnold Schwarzenegger's gorgeous and famous son, Patrick has taken on a new project. A public service announcement to promote Lady Gaga's "Born This Way Foundation." You can read more about it at The Advocate, and check out this behind-the-scenes video of Patrick for Entertainment Tonight.
Move over Taylor Lautner, there's a new cat in town, and his name is Patrick Schwarzenegger! Yep, the soon-to-be 18-year old son of Arnold Schwarzeneggerand Maria Shriver has been plastered all over Hollywood.
First stop: A huge-ass billboard above Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood. He is starring in a new campaign for Hudson Jeans, and I'd have to say, he's looking pretty damn fine.

According to the Daily Mail, "He follows in the footsteps of another child born to famous parents, Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall's daughter, Georgia May Jagger, who also models for the brand."
Things just keep getting worse for Maria Shriver, doesn't it? First, she goes through the heartache and pain of losing her mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, the sister of President Kennedy, a little over a year ago. A year later, in January of this year, she sadly goes through her father, Sargent Shriver's death. And, in the same month, learns of her husband, Arnold Schwarzenegger's infidelity. But it doesn't end there...
Last week, the famous couple separated, because he screwed the housekeeper who's worked for them 25 years! Come to find out, there's a lovechild!
Seriously? What made him cheat on his beautiful wife, with this person, Mildred Patricia Baena, who ABC revealed on television this morning?
I've been cheated on before, but this is beyond pathetic. I feel so sorry for Maria, because this just keeps getting worse for her. Can you imagine finding out you lived in a home for the past 10 years with a person who's had a child with your wife or husband? And you didn't know a thing about it? I cannot think of a more horrible deception. What's even more sickening, is the fact that Maria was pregnant with one of their boys while this woman lived in their home. The least he could have done was paid her to go away, instead he chose to have this woman interact with his wife and kids over the holidays, birthdays, and other special events. This, I feel, is far worse than the affair itself.
You know, I followed the election of Governor Schwarzenegger, because he was a famous actor who was married to a famous Kennedy. But I remember vividly, the allegations that were pouring in from several women stating he had groped them, allegations that he so vehemently denied. This is just one huge, Hot Mess!
I'm sorry, I do feel bad for the 14 year old boy who is learning all of this at the same time we are, and it's getting uglier everyday. Lord watch over him, because it isn't his fault, and I have no idea what it feels like to have your parents being criticized online.I hope he finds solace in knowing that his Dad, while wrong, took care of him, and didn't leave his side.
He hasn't starred in many movies or television series, but Jason Momoa soon will be. He is most notable for his performances in Stargate: Atlantis and Baywatch: Hawaii.
Jason is featured in the new Conan the Barbarian promo released March 2nd by Lionsgate. It was done in one of the most brilliant formats Hollywood has ever introduced, "Motion Movie Posters."
The Barbarian is standing atop a pile of human skulls as the clouds roll in behind him. Click here to see the awesome Motion Movie Poster, isn't it cool?
