	Sweater to a Sporty Strapless Dress Turn those frumpy winter sweaters into a sporty strapless dress with matching jacket. Stay warm & still look hot!
	Viva Permaculture So what is Permaculture? Permaculture, stems from the two words: Permanent Culture I like to deﬁne it, is the design of human settlements in accordance to the laws of nature.
	Women in Marketing: Experience to Inspire Tadpole Event Marketing & Consulting is excited to announce its first Women in Youth Marketing Event, Women in Marketing: Experience to Inspire January 15, 2009 from 7pm-9pm.
	TV killed the Radio Statistically, in the United States, Americans watch an estimated 147 hours of television per month! That equates to 6 days watching 24 hours a day!
	Go Green Expo Comes to LA A great way to jump start your New Year's resolution of greening your lifestyle, the Go Green Expo's first stop in 2009 is LA! Join The Green Girls in experiencing the variety of programs held at this event.
	The Benefit of the Doubt Here's a New Year's resolution that anyone can keep. Give the people you love, starting with yourself, the benefit of the doubt. Generally speaking and almost without exception most of us are doing the best that we can at any given moment. We are being as loving as we can be, as kind as we can be, as generous as we can be, even though our best might not make it, even and especially in our own eyes.
	Project: Make a Dress Out of a Pillow Case! Looking for a project to do with your girls while they're still on holiday break? How about cute dresses for spring out of pillow cases!
	Kellan Lutz - Hottie Of The Week Kellan Lutz hits the top of our Hottie chart this week for being a supporter of the JAYO Invitational & AutismSpeaks.org. Before the Twilight boom, we found Kellan at the 6th Annual JAYO Invitational warming up for an all star volleyball game to benefit Autism.
	Creating a Vision Board for 2009 I don't know about you, but I was happy to kick 2008 to the curb. Yesterday, as a way of bringing in the New Year I sat with good friend and professional visionary who helped me map out my own vision for 2009.

Kellan Lutz - Hottie Of The Week

Sunday, 4 January 2009 11:13 by GreenGirls

Kellan Lutz hits the top of our Hottie chart this week for being a supporter of the JAYO Invitational & AutismSpeaks.org. Before the Twilight boom, we found Kellan at the 6th Annual JAYO Invitational warming up for an all star volleyball game to benefit Autism.

Apparently, we found him irresistible even then due to the amount of footage we found in our archives. Enjoy our Kellan compilation below!

Tadpole Event Marketing & Consulting is excited to announce its first Women in Youth Marketing Event, Women in Marketing: Experience to Inspire January 15, 2009 from 7pm-9pm.

The focal point of the evening is honoring and highlighting strong and influential women in the youth market segment. We feel as though your contributions to our industry make you a perfect candidate. We’d love for you to share some of your trials and obstacles along with some encouraging words of wisdom as part of our event.

A casual reception of about 200 people, followed by a moderated introduction of our Women in Marketing will lead into facilitated round-table discussions with 8-10 people.

All proceeds from the event will benefit Global Inheritance, a non-profit partner dedicated to redefining activism for the next generation.

The Green Girls Weekly Wrap Up (12/28/08)

Sunday, 28 December 2008 11:52 by GreenGirls

This Week's Links:

	Lawns In recent decades, there has been an anti-lawn movement; stemming from the desire to wake up Americans to the reality that keeping up with the Jonesʼs, truly isnʼt a satisfactory way of living.
	New Year’s Eve Entertaining Special This is hands down my favorite cocktail. I like to call it the Absolutely Fabulous because my favorite TV show is Ab Fab where the two relentless party broads Edi and Pats, are always drinking Boli Stolies- a mixture of Bollinger Champagne and Stolichnya Vodka.
	Clearing the Air Wind power is one of the fastest growing alternative energy sources available. What could be cleaner than capturing the power of the moving air and turning it into energy? This is a powerful metaphor on a personal level and in our work to make relationships sustainable.
	Holiday Toy Drive Extravaganza We had a chance to volunteer our time at the Holiday Toy Drive Extravaganza to Benefit Disadvantaged Children throughout Los Angeles County.
	Goat Cheese Potato Frittata This is my favorite Christmas morning breakfast because I can make it the day ahead. It’s substantial, but light enough so I can enjoy a big meal later in the day. It can be served slightly warmed or at room temperature.
