Celebrities, Notables To Bid Houston Farewell

Written on February 14, 2012 by Dylan Ferguson

Saturday’s funeral for legendary pop singer Whitney Houston is expected to be made available for television and web streaming from the New Jersey church where she grew up, Houston’s publicist said Wednesday.

The services, to be held at New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, will be in a much smaller, more intimate setting than the concert halls and arenas Houston packed during her heyday.

In every sense, she will be going home.

Publicists and entertainers by Wednesday had confirmed nearly a dozen celebrities and personalities will be in some of the 1,500 coveted, “invitation-only” seats. No public memorial is planned.

A message left by CNN with the cemetery office was not immediately returned.

Written on February 11, 2012 by Lucy Coughlan

Top Chef: Just Desserts head judge Johnny Iuzzini recently dropped by to talk shop – and share some of his favorite culinary hotspots.

The 2006 James Beard Foundation “Outstanding Pastry Chef of the Year,” he’s partnered with Electrolux to raise awareness about induction cooking, which is the direct heating of a cooking pot rather than the standard heat transfer from a stove. It’s faster and more energy efficient than standard stove-top cooking, and allows the aspiring chef to better control temperature throughout the cooking process. For some induction-friendly recipes, check out Electrolux on Facebook.
