Golden Globes 2011: La moda que se viene

pei001

Una de las mejores cosas que tienen estas entregas de premios es su alfombra roja. Qué placer ver desfilar por ella a tanta celebridad vestida con lo mejor de la alta costura internacional. Y como nos encanta la moda, tomamos nota de las mejores tendencias que lucieron las famosas en la primera Red Carpet del año.

Es como vitrinear, pero en la tele o por Internet, lo mejor de los diseñadores más top de mundo.

En la entrega número 68 de los Golden Globes, que se realizó el domingo pasado, los que se llevaron todos los aplausos fueron Armani, Vera Wang, Eliee Saab, Viktor & Rolf, Versace, Oscar de la Renta, entre otros.

Las mejores vestidas de este año se repiten: Scarlett Johanson, Eva Longoria, Anne Hathaway, JLo, Natalie Portman, Angelina Jolie, y otras nuevas como Mila Kunis, Olivia Wild y Megan Fox. En ellas encontraremos la inspiración que necesitamos para pensar en nuestros próximos looks de fiesta.

El moño francés, el color verde esmeralda, los brillos, escote profundo en la espalda, chasquilla hacia el lado y una sola manga, fueron los must que encontramos en la alfombre roja 2011. Obsérvalos, estúdialos y disfrútalos:

Moño francés y chasquilla hacia el lado

Le sienta bien a casi todas las mujeres y es muy elegante si vas a ponerte un vestido de gala. Natalie Portman, Eva Longoria y Mila Kunis lo llevaron con mucho estilo en la gala de los Golden Globes y se veían muy lindas y sofisticadas. También optaron por la chasquilla hacia un lado, lo que adelgaza la forma del rostro y aporta juventud al peinado.

Color verde esmeralda

Hermoso color y muy de moda. Puedes apreciarlo en 3 versiones distintas: la elegancia y exquisitez de la tela del vestido que llevaba Angelina Jolie, la textura y el volumen del que lucía Catherine Zeta Jones y el buen corte del que usaba Mila Kunis.

Brillos

Ya sean destellos dorados, lentejuelas o pedrería, los brillos siempre te hacen destacar. Olivia Wild simplemente se robó la noche con su vestido de princesa. Anne Hathaway también brillo con sus lentejuelas color champaña.

Escote en la espalda

Seguimos con Anne Hathaway, quien deslumbró no solo por los brillos de su Armany Privé, si no también por el profundo escote que llevaba en su espalda. Igual que Eva Longoria o Claire Danes. Todos con un frente más simple para luego voltear y dejar con la boca abierta a quién quiera admirar la figura que se dejaba ver con la forma del escote.

Vestidos de un hombro

Varias famosas lucieron diseños que dejaban descubierto solo uno de sus hombros: Julia Styles, Paris Hilton, Nicole Kidman. Pero la que sin duda se llevó los aplausos fue Leea Michelle con su vestido rosa de Oscar de la Renta que llevaba muchos vuelos y acentuaba muy bien su figura.

¡¡Mira las fotitos!!

Kate Spade’s super colorful luncheon

ing2514

 
Ksny5
To celebrate the first celebrity face for her brand, Kate Spade threw a fun and colorful lunch on Friday for actress Bryce Dallas Howard who is starring in the spring ad campaign for Spade's accessories collection.

Set under a tented area at the Chateau Marmont, guests gathered at a long banquet table appropriately set with a bubblegum pink table runner and no shortage of pink peonies and scattered gold confetti.

"I am genuinely a fan of Kate Spade. The day I found out about being in the ads a box of Kate Spade dishes that I had ordered completely on my own arrived at my door. I have been a rabid fan of the brand for a long time," said Howard who looked 1960s ladylike in a green-and-white Kate Spade Fleur dress, which drew a nice contrast to her crimson red hair. "It's such a natural expression of femininity. I aspire to be a Kate Spade girl."

Apparently, so do a lot of other guests who showed up in acid brights such as lime green, lemon yellow, tangerine and coral, many with their Kate Spade bags, the most eye-catching being the Scout bag in a vivid watermelon pink.

Other celebs included Mandy Moore and Anna Kendrick, who with their porcelain skin and ladylike ensembles added to the girly feeling of the afternoon.

Today’s Spot Gold Spot Silver Prices; Contract Gold, Silver, Platinum, Copper Move Higher; Investor News Precious Metals March 12th, 2011

The major market index composites ended the last trading session higher. The
dollar fell lower to the euro and precious metals gold and silver were trading
in the green. One day after the massive earthquake and resulting tsunami that
devastated Japan, sectors such as metals and building materials are gaining. As
of yesterdays close, gold, silver, platinum and copper all ended in positive
territory. April Gold was higher by 9.80. May Silver was higher by .87. April
Platinum was higher by 16.10 and May Copper was higher by .02. Even with the Dow
Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq ending their respective session in the green on
Friday, they were all lower for the week. Investors continue to worry about job
creation here, but also over political unrest in Libya and Saudi Arabia. Nerves
are still on edge regarding the price of light sweet crude as well. The price
per barrel still remains above the 100 dollars per barrel mark which, for many,
implies economic troubles to come. These variables are all helping to support
precious metal prices, especially with popular safe haven assets like gold and
silver. Current spot gold and spot silver prices are trending green. Spot silver
per ounce is green by .78 at 35.84. Spot silver per kilo is green by 24.98 at
1152.31. Spot gold per kilo is higher by 152.07 at 45555.36 and spot gold per
gram is higher by .15 at 45.56. Author: Camillo Zucari

Star Scientific Smoking in Option Action

Your daily option s trading wrap up. Market Sentiment Stock market averages are holding modest gains late-Friday. The consumer was in focus early after the Commerce Department reported that Retail Sales rose 1% in February, which was in-line with expectations. However, a separate report released a bit later showed the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index down to 68.2 in mid-March, from 77.5 in late-February and well below economist estimates of 76.5. Stock market averages dipped on the news, but after a 228-point loss yesterday, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was steady at midday. Investor attention has shifted somewhat, from the European Debt Crisis and the escalating violence in NAME (North Africa, Mid-East) and to the devastating earthquake in Northeast Japan. Overall market action has been relatively quiet and the tone of trading has a wait-and-see feel to it, as investors try to make sense of the myriad of different events happening around the globe. Crude oil (April), which moved towards $107 Monday, is down $1.70 to $101. Exxon (NYSE: XOM ), GE (NYSE: GE ), and 3M (NYSE: MMM ) are leading the Dow to a 58-point gain. The tech-heavy NASDAQ added 15. With less than 90 minutes to trade, the CBOE Volatility Index (CBOE: VIX ) is down 1.70 to 20.18. Options flow reflects the cautious sentiment today, with 6.6 million calls and 6.3 million puts traded so far. Bullish Flow Clean Energy Fuels (NASDAQ: CLNE ) opened higher on earnings news and the advance was extended midday after President Obama mentioned T Boone Pickens, a major shareholder (32% in Oct 2010). CLNE is now up $1.68 to $14.68 and today's options volume includes 7400 calls/2800 puts, which is three times the average daily volume for CLNE. Most active are CLNE March 13 Puts and Calls , which expire in one week. Implied volatility is down 9% to 53. Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO ) touches another 52-week low, down 13 cents to $17.79. In options action, one investor bought the CSCO March 18 Straddle at 52 cents, 11,150 times. About 20 minutes later, the CSCO April 18 Straddle was sold at $1.08, 11, 000 times. The two trades might roll a position from March to April. If so, it's possibly a bet that Cisco shares will hold around $18 through the April expiration, in 35 days. Bearish Flow iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (NYSE: EWJ ) is trading down 20 cents to $10.79 early Friday after a quake struck off the coast of Sendai, which is a town of about 1 million that accounts for 8% of Japan's GDP. It hit in the final hour of trading in Tokyo and sent the Nikkei skidding 100 points. The decline has been orderly, however, and EWJ is off 1.8%. Meanwhile, put volume in the Japan ETF is 3,900 contracts, which is five times the expected and compares to call volume of 720. EWJ Mar 11 Puts , which expire at the end of next week and have a delta of -.65, are the most active with 1,650 traded. Mar 10, Apr 11, and Jun 10 puts are seeing interest as well. Implied volatility is up 11% to 21, compared to a 52-week high and low of 31.5 and 15. Implied Volatility Mover Star Scientific (NASDAQ: CIGX ) options are seeing another day of brisk trading, as shares add 35 cents to $2.72. CIGX has surged nearly 50% over the past four days. Attention is now shifting to the CIGX March 3 Calls and CIGX May 3 Calls , which have traded 1325, and 2155 times, respectively, and more than two-thirds at the offer. Mar, Apr and Aug 2.5 calls are seeing action as well. 12,000 call options and 900 puts traded. Implied volatility is up 30% to 136. The company announced today that its claims in a patent reexamination have been confirmed. Option Flow Bullish flow detected in Cleveland BioLabs (NASDAQ: CBLI ), with 2083 calls trading, or five times the recent average daily call volume. Bearish activity detected in CurrencyShares Japanese Yen (NYSE: FXY ), with 8473 puts trading, or five times the recent average daily put volume. Bearish activity detected in Toyota Motor (NYSE: TM ), with 2548 puts trading, or two times the recent average daily put volume. Increasing volume is also being seen in International Coal (NYSE: ICO ), Rackspace (NYSE: RAX ), and the SPDR Energy ETF (NYSE: XLE ).

Spring Forward: The gift of sleep

ing2514

Most of us in the U.S. turn our clocks forward at 2 a.m. Sunday. For the past few days we've been offering up some gift ideas inspired by the switch to Daylight Saving Time. 

 Branche-Gold-web

If only we could turn back time. We're talking the hour of beauty sleep we'll be missing Saturday night. Luckily, there are some remedies that — bonus — would make great girlfriend gifts any day. A favorite of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Branché silk charmeuse pillow slips (in three sizes and eight colors, from $55) and new matching hand-sewn eye masks ($38 in eight colors; all at branchebeautysleep.com or Marie Mason Apothecary) are infused with amino acids to help skin regenerate. By blocking out light, sleep masks help with a good night's sleep so that an early wake-up call isn't as jarring. Pop it in the fridge, and it will also tackle morning puffiness. The pillow case's dreamy finish helps prevent facial lines and hair breakage, and it is gentle on your 'do, extending the life of a blowout (so you can wash and set your hair the night before, to save precious seconds).

  Tata-aromatic_bedtime
Beauty junkies are going ga-ga for skin care guru Tata Harper's all-natural potions made of organic herbs and botanicals, many harvested from her Vermont farm. The Aromatic Bed Time Treatment ($60 at Lost & Found or www.tataharperskincare.com) is a hypnotic blend of citrus and floral essential oils strategically designed to calm the mind. Simply dab it on pulse points and get set to doze into sweetly scented dreams.

 
ReBloom bottle Single Render 
Then there's reBloom— the all-natural beauty sleep drink infused with chamomile, lavender, melatonin and vitamin E that falls somewhere between chamomile tea and Ambien (minus the headache). We were skeptical, too, but it really does seem to…we just….zzzzzzzzzzz. ($22 for seven or try two free, minus the shipping fee, at rebloom.com).

Stocks Move Higher On Oil’s Slide

Stocks Move Higher On Oil’s Slide

Rightfully so, most consumers of media, as well as investors, were focused
Friday on the horrendous events in Japan, which continued to play out with
massive recovery efforts and tsunami watches on the western U.S. On the
financial market side of things, however, stocks managed to rebound in a way
they couldnt on Thursday, as oil prices slipped for a second straight day. More
importantly, perhaps, equities were able to re-capture technically significant
levels of 12,000 on the Dow Jones Industrial Average and 1300 on the S&P 500.
The Dow rose 60 points to 12,044, the Nasdaq gained 15 points to 2716 and the
S&P 500 added 9 points to 1304. That the market pushed higher on Friday wasnt a
certainty, however. Stocks began the session lower, in part as a reaction to the
developments in Japan with the S&P 500 even falling below 1290 before the
retreat in oil prices became just too compelling for stocks to not rise higher.
Oil finished down 1.5% to just above $101 close enough to $100 to be a cruel
reminder that oil prices have now been in triple digits for six trading sessions
in a row. The usual suspects exploited lower oil prices, with airlines
continuing to get off the mat the Dow Jones U.S. Airlines Index has climbed
about 10% in a week. Southwest Airlines (NYSE: LUV ) gained 1.8% on Friday.

Friday Afternoon Trade Alert

I already cashed in an easy 10% on my COOL day trade earlier and told you I was looking for more action. So here it is, I just picked up ALZM at $1.06 and am looking for more than my normal 10% on this one. Goal is 25% in the short-term. Here is what prompted my trade. It looks like a big promotional effort just started on ALZM, so probably not a one day flip for me. I have seen this before and they have run for a couple weeks or more… (same guys who did KNKT and HHWW) This is a pure short-term momentum play for me, my goal is $1.35. No position in KNKT or HHWW for me. Jason Bond jason@pennystocklive.com

e-file Tax Return IRS News; File Taxes Electronically OnLine to Receive 2010 Tax Refund; Government Benefits Notes for Tax Returns

Negocioenlinea

Tax season is upon us and government data reveals that the number of Americans that are filling their taxes electronically increases every year. Approximately 70 percent of Americans will be completing their taxes on line this year by e-filing. Americans that e-file can expect that they will receive their 2010 tax refund in as little as ten business days and it can be sent direct deposit. Americans are choosing to e-file more now than ever before due to the efficiency and lack of paperwork processing. The IRS utilizes encryption technology so as to safeguard information that is sent electronically. Approximately 95 million Americans are already utilizing the IRS e-file option according to government statistics. In addition, more Americans are motivated to utilize free tax software to prepare and e-file their tax returns. The stipulation this year is that free e-file is available only if your adjusted gross income is equal to or less than $58,000 dollars for the 2010 tax year. According to the IRS, almost 900 million Americans have e-filed tax returns safely and securely since 1990. Accessible forms and information about this process can be found at the IRS website located at IRS.gov. It is expected that more Americans will e-file this year than in any other year prior.

Spring Forward: A gift of time

ing2514

Most of us in the U.S. turn our clocks forward at 2 a.m. Sunday. For the next few days we're offering up some gift ideas inspired by the switch to daylight saving time. 

 

BalenciagaSS 11 ACCESSORIES 032 
Talk about watching the clock…We've obsessively had our eyes fixed on this chic new Balenciaga by Nicolas Ghesquière cuff watch — the fashion house's first-ever timepiece. Like most things Ghesquière does, it's just so right. It comes with a black calfskin band, but python and lizard swap-ins can be purchased separately for $365 each.   What better way to remind someone you love to reset the time than to add this to his or her wrist? And we think the "one for you, one for me" adage should apply in this case. But it's a limited edition — there are only 1,500 worldwide—so don't dawdle.  ($1,375 at Balenciaga; Call [310] 854-0557). 

Charmco-TimeBracelet Another timely one-of-a-kind gift idea — Charmco's too-cute custom bracelets with a personalized combination of new and vintage charms. Shown here, the Diana bracelet ($1,995) is decked out with a cuckoo clock featuring a movable pendulum ($240), a Parisian clock that can be engraved on the back ($165), an hourglass filled with crystals ($240), a sun with face detailing ($110) and Big Ben's famous clock tower ($210). All pieces are 14-karat gold. (Bracelets from $250 and charms from $65 at charmco.com )

5 Companies Increasing Dividends Last Week

Stock dividend information shows the fast-and-furious pace of the recent
increases slowed down a bit last week, as earnings season winds down. However,
there was still a parade of payout performers upping the quarterly dividend paid
to shareholders. Stock dividend research from last week once again shows a
diverse group of investments, with big tech, high security and office supplies
highlighting the roster. Here are five companies increasing dividends last week.
Applied Materials (NASDAQ: AMAT ). The semiconductor giant and dividend stock
has its silicon in all sorts of operations, from semiconductor chips to flat
panel displays to solar panels. Business is good for AMAT, so the company
decided to give out more dividends to shareholders. How much more? Well, the
company upped its quarterly payout by 14% to 8 cents per share. The new dividend
is payable on Jun. 22 to shareholders of record as of Jun. 1. Bank of Nova
Scotia (NYSE: BNS ). Canada's biggest bank posted a record first-quarter
profit last week on improvements in credit-loss provisions. The company, also
known as Scotiabank, spread the wealth to shareholders after the record
earnings, upping its quarterly dividend by 6%. Scotiabank is the second of the
five big Canadian banks to increase its payout since the Great Recession of
2008. The new quarterly dividend of 52 cents per share is payable on Apr. 27 to
shareholders of record on Apr. 5. Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM ). The wireless
technology giant dialed-up a quarterly dividend boost to shareholders of 13%.
The new payout of 21.5 cents per share replaces the current payout of just 19
cents per share. The company said the rise in its dividend was driven by
significant surge in demand for the high-end 3G smartphones and tablets, and
that resulted in solid revenue and earnings growth. The new payout will be made
after March 25. Staples (NASDAQ: SPLS ). The world's largest office supply
company upped its dividend ante by a penny to 10 cents per share. The move comes
just about a week after Staples reported a 19% jump in annual earnings. Staples
will supply its 11% dividend increase on Apr. 14 to shareholders of record on
March 25. Tyco International (NYSE: TYC ). The security and fire alarm company,
which also makes industrial instruments, sounded the dividend alarm to
shareholders last week—but in a good way. Tyco announced that its board has
approved an approximate 20% increase in its annual dividend. The new dividend,
paid quarterly, of 25 cents per share will begin on May 25 to shareholders of
record on Apr. 29. At the time of publication, Jim Woods held no positions in
any of the stocks mentioned in this article.

The unrelenting images of the massive disaster in Japan overwhelmed world markets and gave investors pause to contemplate and process what the ramifications might be for the marketplace. Oil refineries shut down, companies such as Sony close factories and Japanese stocks hurled lower as a result of the 8.9 magnitude quake. Both Asian and European stocks ended their respective sessions lower. Major stock index composites in the United States however, ended the trading session in the green. Sectors that helped push positive trending yesterday were energy and building materials. The Dow Jones Industrial Average moved in positive territory most of the session and ended higher by .5 percent at 12044.4. The Nasdaq ended the session in positive territory as well. It moved ahead by .54 percent and closed the session of the week at 2715.61. The S&P 500 ended the session in the green by moving higher .71 percent and finishing at 1304.28. Home based economic reports stemming from Friday were relatively positive. It was reported that retail sales figures rose 1 percent in February which was slightly better than what many economists had been anticipating. The indices ended on a positive note but were lower overall for the week. As a side notation, as bad as news out of Japan was, there are many that imply the global market growth will now benefit from the amount of money that will need to be spent on rebuilding the devastated areas of Japan. For the week though, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1 percent. Author: Frank Matto

5 Companies Increasing Dividends Last Week

Stock dividend information shows the fast-and-furious pace of the recent increases slowed down a bit last week, as earnings season winds down. However, there was still a parade of payout performers upping the quarterly dividend paid to shareholders. Stock dividend research from last week once again shows a diverse group of investments, with big tech, high security and office supplies highlighting the roster. Here are five companies increasing dividends last week. Applied Materials (NASDAQ: AMAT ). The semiconductor giant and dividend stock has its silicon in all sorts of operations, from semiconductor chips to flat panel displays to solar panels. Business is good for AMAT, so the company decided to give out more dividends to shareholders. How much more? Well, the company upped its quarterly payout by 14% to 8 cents per share. The new dividend is payable on Jun. 22 to shareholders of record as of Jun. 1. Bank of Nova Scotia (NYSE: BNS ). Canada's biggest bank posted a record first-quarter profit last week on improvements in credit-loss provisions. The company, also known as Scotiabank, spread the wealth to shareholders after the record earnings, upping its quarterly dividend by 6%. Scotiabank is the second of the five big Canadian banks to increase its payout since the Great Recession of 2008. The new quarterly dividend of 52 cents per share is payable on Apr. 27 to shareholders of record on Apr. 5. Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM ). The wireless technology giant dialed-up a quarterly dividend boost to shareholders of 13%. The new payout of 21.5 cents per share replaces the current payout of just 19 cents per share. The company said the rise in its dividend was driven by significant surge in demand for the high-end 3G smartphones and tablets, and that resulted in solid revenue and earnings growth. The new payout will be made after March 25. Staples (NASDAQ: SPLS ). The world's largest office supply company upped its dividend ante by a penny to 10 cents per share. The move comes just about a week after Staples reported a 19% jump in annual earnings. Staples will supply its 11% dividend increase on Apr. 14 to shareholders of record on March 25. Tyco International (NYSE: TYC ). The security and fire alarm company, which also makes industrial instruments, sounded the dividend alarm to shareholders last week—but in a good way. Tyco announced that its board has approved an approximate 20% increase in its annual dividend. The new dividend, paid quarterly, of 25 cents per share will begin on May 25 to shareholders of record on Apr. 29. At the time of publication, Jim Woods held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned in this article.
