...Many people know you now through Pineapple Express, which was directed by David Gordon Green. You've worked with him a few times now. He was actually my next door neighbor during freshman year at film school, and I was going to school originally to be a writer and director. I actually worked as a second unit director on George Washington, and then an actor dropped out of David's All The Real Girls and I stepped in. Thanks to Foot Fist Way, I ended up swinging by the set to meet Judd Apatow during Knocked Up, and I actually...
...after a couple movies, and now a TV series, what's next? Are you looking to do more TV, or to go back to the movies? David Green and I have a project with Universal called Your Highness.

(The faster carbon intensity decreases, the more output businesses get for their carbon.) The failure of green business so far to produce a Google...

And like the rest of us, green businesses will be looking to Washington for a savior, hoping that President Barack Obama's promises to use stimulus spending to make the U.S. economy greener, leaner and cleaner was more than idle campaign talk. "If there's one thing I'd like to see from the Administration, it's a vision for what the green economy will look like," Makower says. "But right now, we're in uncharted territory...
