Lisa Murkowski’s amendment to upend the EPA’s Endangerment Finding, which says the CO2 and other greenhouse gases are warming the planet, could be a harbinger of things to come on the Senate climate and energy bill. This is probably not the case, since the Murkowski language could never get through the House and the president wouldn’t sign it. Nonetheless, EPA chief Lisa jackson posted a blog today on the

Jaden Smith is the son of one of the biggest movie stars on the planet. As a result, he’s starring in a remake of The Karate Kid , one of the most beloved films in cinematic history. But in case it wasn’t clear that Jaden was the luckiest youngster in Hollywood, consider this: he duets with Justin Bieber on the flick’s theme song, “Never Say Never.” Let’s just hope Smith didn’t touch Justin at any point during their time together.
