Wolfgang Puck’s Menu for the Official Oscars After-Party

ing2514

Wolfgang PuckCourtesy of Wolfgang Puck

Wolfgang Puck created the menu for tonight’s Governors Ballthe official Academy Awards after-party—his 17th year doing so! "Our goal each year is to honor Hollywood's brightest stars and most accomplished artists with a culinary masterpiece,” Puck said. This year, the menu is Latin-inspired, and features Oscar-shaped smoked salmon (shown) and gold-dusted chocolate Oscars. And catering for 1,500 of the most important people in Hollywood takes a hefty staff, Puck explained. “We are having about 900 staff—plus 50,000 organic heirloom baby vegetables, 1,600 whole Dover sole and 10 pounds of black truffles—working to feed all these hungry superstars after the Oscars ceremony.” Click through to preview Puck’s Governors Ball menu.

Oscars: Fashion hits and misses

ing2514

Bestworst

I'll be honest, there weren't many major misses this evening – most women who hit the Oscar red carpet looked gorgeous and managed to stay away from the same tired cookie cutter formula we've grown so tired of.

Sure, there were strapless gowns, up dos and diamonds, but for some reason, it all fell into place in a fresh and exciting way.

Mila Kunis was pretty in a lavender lace gown by Elie Saab. More than anything it was the color that felt the most striking, playing a nice opposite against her raven hair.

Michelle Williams' pearly Chanel Haute Couture column gown worked so well with her platinum hair and even though there was no color in her ensemble, she didn't look washed out, but rather totally gorgeous.

Cate Blanchett is a red carpet risk taker and her choices usually turn out well. This time was no exception. Her pale pink Givenchy dress was so interestingly structured, with textured beads at the shoulders, it read like wearable art.

Amy Adams looked like she was channeling Bianca Jagger in her navy blue beaded L'wren Scott dress and Cartier necklace. The shade of blue looked so good against her red hair and she perfectly nailed the sexy '70s look.

It was great to see some vivid color on the red carpet and Jennifer Hudson was possibly the brightest star out there. Her tangerine toned Atelier Versace halter neck gown popped so amazingly against her skin and added a playful tone to this year's Oscar fashion.

A few disappointments: Melissa Leo's white and gold Marc Bouwer dress was cool in theory, but the fact that the entire dress was constructed of that heavily textured fabric made it look weighty and wet suit thick.

While I love how simple and elegant Jennifer Lawrence looked in her body-hugging Calvin Klein sheath, it was just a tad too casual and breezy. She could have done a great necklace with that deep of a scoop neck or maybe a statement bangle.

–Melissa Magsaysay

Oscars: Natalie Portman’s plum glow

ing2514

Natalie

To complement her burgundy Rodarte gown, Natalie Portman went for a plum-hued beauty look – all by Dior (for which she is the face of Miss Dior Cheri), of course.

Makeup artist Eileen Kastner-Delago was inspired by the purple tones in Portman's dress and started with DiorSkin Nude Natural Glow Foundation.

Her eyes were swept with Dior 1-Colour Eyeshadow in Gold Touch, 2-Colour Eyeshadow Purple Look and 5-Colour Eyeshadow in Extase Pinks.

Diorshow Waterproof Mascara in Black pumped up her lashes and a coat of Diorshow Iconic Mascara in Navy Blue added dimension.

Dior Addict Lipstick in Infamous Pink gave her lips that perfect pink hue and the shine came from Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss in Apricot Cloche.

Stylist Rachel Zoe couldn’t be busier! She dressed Oscars host Anne Hathaway in eight different outfits tonight, she’s nine months pregnant, and she’s launching her first eponymous collection this fall. This weekend—among all of the hustle and bustle—she also played publicist and wore a piece from her new lineup to the Charles Finch and Chanel Pre-Oscar party in Los Angeles on Saturday. “I’m wearing my own dress, and it will be available in August,” Zoe told us of the black and gold shift, which she first showed in a white-and-black variation for her lookbook (inset). “I‘m about to go into hiding for a little bit so why not wear my own stuff while I can?” We love the new black version!

Celebrity Q&A: When Did You Wear a Tutu Last?

Nicole Kidman TutuGetty Images; Courtesy Photo

When Oscars Best Actress nominee Nicole Kidman was asked what she was going to wear to the big event Sunday, she knew her daughter would have some influence. “Sunday Rose has pretty strong opinions, and she chooses what she calls 'pretty dresses,' so she has a very strong voice in terms of what I will be wearing on the night of the Oscars,” Kidman said at the Oscars nominees lunch last month. “I could be wearing a tutu.” So, will she wear a tutu? We doubt it. But, with the proliferation of ballet-inspired fashion, from Black Swan to the runways, we asked celebrities like Kim Kardashian, Kate Bosworth, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and more about the last time they pulled on a tutu. And we didn’t leave out the boys! Click through the gallery to see all the celebrity tutu answers. Then, tell us: When did you wear a tutu last?

Friday’s Stocks to Watch: MedAssets, NutriSystem

Here are a few stocks to keep on your radar Friday:  MedAssets (NASDAQ: MDAS ) shares plunged nearly 30% after the company’s disappointing fourth-quarter earnings report late Thursday, which included a dour projection for fiscal 2011 profit. A slew of investment houses downgraded the stock on Friday. Speaking of bad earnings reports, NutriSystem (NASDAQ: NTRI ) fell 29.4% on Friday after the company’s fourth-quarter earnings report late Thursday that included news that revenue had fallen nearly 17% from a year earlier. On Friday, both Lazard and Janney Montgomery Scott downgraded the shares. Salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM ) shares gained 6.2% after beating analysts’ fourth-quarter earnings estimates. That news seemed to offset the company’s mixed guidance for the first quarter and full fiscal year. Plastic-shoe retailer Crocs (NASDAQ: CROX ) were off 8 cents to $18.01 after the company beat fourth-quarter estimates late Thursday and boosted its forecast for the first quarter. Stifel Nicolaus raised its price target on the stock to $23 from $22. SandRidge Energy (NYSE: SD ) shares were up nearly 9% after the company said late Thursday that its fourth-quarter loss was narrower than what the Street had expected. The company also said it agreed to sell certain properties in New Mexico for $200 million.

Stocks Going Ex Dividend the First Week of March

dow2664
Negocioenlinea

Here is our latest update on the stock trading technique called ‘Buying Dividends’. This is the process of buying stocks before the ex dividend date and selling the stock shortly after the ex date at about the same price, yet still being entitled to the dividend . This technique generally works only in bull markets. In flat or choppy markets, you have to be extremely careful. In order to be entitled to the dividend, you have to buy the stock before the ex-dividend date, and you can’t sell the stock until after the ex date. The actual dividend may not be paid for another few weeks. WallStreetNewsNetwork.com has compiled a downloadable and sortable Excel list of the stocks going ex dividend during the next week or two. The list contains many dividend paying companies, all with market caps over $500 million, and yields over 2%. Here are a few examples showing the stock symbol, the market capitalization, the ex-dividend date and the yield. Flowers Foods, Inc. (FLO) market cap: $2.4B ex div date: 3/1/2011 yield: 3.0% Regal Entertainment Group (RGC) market cap: $2.3B ex div date: 3/1/2011 yield: 5.9% Dominion Resources, Inc. (D) market cap: $26.4B ex div date: 3/2/2011 yield: 4.4% Kimberly-Clark Corporation (KMB) market cap: $26.4B ex div date: 3/2/2011 yield: 4.3% Potlatch Corporation (PCH) market cap: $1.5B ex div date: 3/2/2011 yield: 5.5% PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP) market cap: $100.0B ex div date: 3/2/2011 yield: 3.1% The additional ex-dividend stocks can be found at wsnn.com. (If you have been to the website before, and the latest link doesn’t show up, you may have to empty your cache.) If you like dividend stocks, you should check out the high yield utility stocks and the Monthly Dividend Stocks at WallStreetNewsNetwork.com or WSNN.com. Dividend definitions: Declaration date: the day that the company declares that there is going to be an upcoming dividend. Ex-dividend date: the day on which if you buy the stock, you would not be entitled to that particular dividend; or the first day on which a shareholder can sell the shares and still be entitled to the dividend. Record date : the day when you must be on the company’s books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is normally set for stocks two business days before the record date. Payment date: the day on which the dividend payment is actually made, which can be as long at two months after the ex date. Don’t forget to reconfirm the ex-dividend date with the company before implementing this technique. Disclosure: Author did not own any of the above at the time article was written.

Friday’s Stocks to Watch: MedAssets, NutriSystem

fourth-quarter earnings report late Thursday, which included a dour projection
for fiscal 2011 profit. A slew of investment houses downgraded the stock on
Friday. Speaking of bad earnings reports, NutriSystem (NASDAQ: NTRI )
fell 29.4% on Friday after the companys fourth-quarter earnings report late
Thursday that included news that revenue had fallen nearly 17% from a year
earlier. On Friday, both Lazard and Janney Montgomery Scott downgraded the
shares. Salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM ) shares gained 6.2% after beating analysts
fourth-quarter earnings estimates. That news seemed to offset the companys mixed
