Coupons for fresh fruits and vegetables are few and far between, but that doesn't mean saving money on produce is just a dream. Several store-bought vegetables can be easily grown in your own backyard or a pot in the kitchen with just a touch of TLC. Don't worry about needing a green thumb — these guys are so eager to get back to nature they practically grow themselves!
Green Onions
The next time you bring home a bunch, save the often-discarded white-tipped roots and stick those babies in a jar of water in the kitchen. In a few days you'll notice longer roots telling you it's time to plant the growing greens in the ground. If you don't have outdoor space, green onions will do just fine in a small pot in the kitchen.
Have you ever found a forgotten clove of garlic that's tips had turned green? Simply tuck those cloves (green tips facing up) in the dirt and water sparingly. In a week or so you'll notice a single stalk emerging from the ground. Once that stalk has grown a curly tail, keep an eye out for the plant's lower leaves to turn yellow — that's how you'll know when the garlic in the ground is ready to be harvested.
After chopping off the stalks from the base, take a gander down the remaining stalks at the tiny green leaves peeking back at you. Those, my friends, are baby celery stalks just waiting to make their debut. Keep the base cut side up in a shallow dish of water and set it in a sunny spot for 5-7 days, changing the water at least once. You'll soon notice those baby stalks emerging upwards, and that's your cue to stick them in the ground and watch 'em grow. If you want your celery to grow grocery-store straight, slip a plastic barrel made from cutting off the top and bottom of a 2 liter bottle over the bunch. When your next recipe requires a single stalk or two, just snip as you please and leave the rest to keep on growing.
Nothing beats the satisfaction of harvesting your very own home grown spuds…well, except how good they taste! And since growing potatoes in a bucket is my preferred method, no heavy digging is required to pull up your bounty. While you can certainly purchase "seed" potatoes, the store-bought spuds will work just as well. Select a potato that has plenty of sprouts or "eyes" then slice the potato in two to achieve the most "eyes" on both slices. Let the slices sit out on your counter for 3 days or until the cut flesh forms a dry, leather like skin. Once that's done, find a well draining pot or bucket and add a few inches of soil to the bottom before placing your potato slices cut side down, at least 4 inches apart. Cover the slices with a few inches of soil, when the plants have grown a few inches out of the ground, cover them lightly with soil and continue to cover the new growth with soil as the plant grows. Water sparingly — potatoes will rot in water-logged soil. When the leaves on the plant have withered, it's time to dump your bucket and collect your bounty.
While it is possible to use a clipping from fresh herbs to grow some more, I like to invest in the fancy fresh herbs that still have their roots and soil intact. For only a few cents more you are taking home a well established plant that would cost at least $5 from the local garden store. Go ahead and use what you need for your recipe and then stick the herb's root base in water for a few days to give those thirsty roots a drink. Once the roots have plumped up, it's time to stick those herbs in well-draining garden soil and call it done.
Once you've had a taste of home grown, it's hard to go back to store-bought grub. Not only does growing a few kitchen basics save you money, it's also a relaxing way to sample "the simple life." Check your zone for the best planting season in your area and get to growing!

Pulling off a successful high-end runway show involves a lot of energy, planning and production.
American Cancer Society Center, Downtown
The behind-the-scenes happenings are often chaotic in order to produce a seamless, flowing result for the crowd. So, for an event as big as the annual Jeffrey Fashion Cares benefit, which raises money for the Atlanta AIDS Fund and Susan G. Komen for the Cure, it's rare to get a glimpse behind the wizard's curtain—especially one that exudes such calm and serenity. But that's what photographer Ben Rose captured when he snapped this photo of host and fashion stalwart Jeffrey Kalinsky rehearsing with his models before the big runway show. "I only work with Jeffrey once a year, on the night of Jeffrey Fashion Cares, and I get the impression that he is a little camera shy," says Rose. "It was nice to be able to catch him in a natural state, no poses, just doing what he does."

Three days ago, the Thanksgiving turkey was the star of the table!
But now, everybody's avoiding it. It's the big white elephant in the fridge. And unless you're willing to just toss it all out, it's time to up the leftover turkey ante a little bit. You can check out my (Jamie) recipe for "Thanksgiving on Toast" HERE – but check out the new recipes our Deal Detective Kim just sent in to help us clean out the fridge! Over to you, Kim……
OK, so realistically, today is the last day for those Thanksgiving leftovers. Since leftovers is a recurring Thanksgiving theme, I thought I'd keep in the theme by giving you LEFTOVER recipes. That's right, ladies and gents, I bring you leftover recipes from previous columns! (wink, wink)
Chicken (um…Turkey) Enchiladas:
- A couple of cups of cooked, shredded turkey–use what you have, it doesn't matter what part of the bird it came from.
- Sour cream–about a cup
- Shredded cheese–about 2 cups, divided. If you like it mild, one of the Mexican blends is good, I like to use Pepper Jack inside & mild Mexican blend on the top.
- Diced onion, 1/4 to 1/2 cup. If you want them really soft, cook it for a couple of minutes in a skillet with some oil.
- Chili powder, cumin, and dried cilantro–about a tablespoon EACH. (Or you could substitute one of those envelopes of taco seasoning!)
- Salt, to taste
- A package of tortillas–I prefer the flour ones for this but it's your food
- A can or jar of enchilada sauce. (These vary widely in taste and thickness. Find what you like and stick with it.)
**Notes: I can't STAND black olives, but if you like them, I'm sure they'd be good in this. If you like your food hotter, you could chop up some hot peppers and add those in.
Preheat oven to 375. Mix turkey, sour cream, cheese, onion and seasonings in a bowl until well-mixed–it should look kind of like chicken salad. Take a tortilla, spoon turkey mixture into the center of the tortilla. Roll it up and place seam-side down in a glass baking dish sprayed with cooking spray. Repeat until you run out of filling or tortillas. Pour enchilada sauce evenly over enchiladas. Cover with foil and bake at 375 for 30-40 minutes. Remove foil, sprinkle with the rest of the cheese, and put back in oven, uncovered, until cheese melts.
"Not Stuffed" Pork Chops:
This is another recipe that is flexible, depending on how many you need to feed. Also, if you don't eat pork, it would be equally delicious using boneless, skinless chicken breasts. (This would also be a good use for leftover homemade stuffing after Thanksgiving, using chicken breasts!) The name comes from the fact that we loved stuffed pork chops, but the cut you need to make them doesn't go on sale very often, so my Mom adapted to fit our budget.
- 4-6 boneless pork loin chops, or whatever cut of chops is on sale (if they're really thick, brown them in a skillet with a little olive oil before you start, or put them in a plastic food storage bag and flatten them out a little with a meat mallet or heavy skillet)
- 2 boxes Stove Top stuffing (this goes on sale like crazy in the fall), or leftover Thanksgiving stuffing
- 1 can pineapple chunks or slices
- 1 cup white wine (optional)
Prepare stuffing, following package directions. Spread half of it in the bottom of a casserole dish. Arrange pork chops on top of stuffing, then spread the tops of the chops with the rest of the stuffing. If any is left, drop it by spoonfuls between and around the chops. If you're using the wine, drain the pineapple. If not, substitute the pineapple juice in the can for the wine. Scatter the pineapple over the top of the stuffing and then drizzle the liquid evenly over everything. Cover with foil and bake at 400 for 30-45 min. Use an instant-read thermometer to make sure the pork is done; if not, put it back for a few more minutes, checking frequently.
Turkey Salad:
Last but not least, my favorite Turkey Salad. I love this in the summertime–I can eat it on a sub roll, a croissant, in the middle of half a cantaloupe, or straight out of the bowl.
2 c. cooked, shredded turkey
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped (chopped onion freezes well, put the rest in a freezer bag for another use)
1/4 c. chopped pecans
1/2 c. drained pineapple–crushed or tidbits or coarsely chop some chunks or slices
garlic salt, to taste
1 t. curry powder
1/4-1/2 c. mayonnaise
Mix all ingredients well. Chill before serving.

Even though North Conway has been a resort town since the nineteenth century and a ski resort since the 1930s, it still has the small town feeling that appeals to visitors. In the center of North Conway is expansive Schouler Park, a large open space that in winter hosts a free open-air skating rink. It also provides a view of the town's beautiful Victorian railroad station, home to the Conway Scenic Railway (sorry, it doesn't open until April). There are many things to do in town that don't involve skiing and the list of alternative things to do is large.
Small town boutique shopping at its best
Wandering along Main Street is a joy. Zeb's General Store is a must-stop for all visitors. Just about everything sold in this store is made in New England, much of it in New Hampshire. It has a long penny candy counter, jams, jellies and relishes of every description, clothing, souvenirs, snacks, and just about anything else you can think of. Say hello to the "old man" by the stairs and don't miss the moose on the second floor.
The Conway 5¢ and 10¢ Store, filled with things you haven't seen in years, is a good place to pick up something to read in your B&B. Just off Main Street, at 10 Seavey Street, Essence of Art has a good collection of handcrafted pottery, hand-woven table linens, clothing and jewelry. Further down Main Street look for the outstanding NH League of New Hampshire Craftsmen shop. Across the street from it, the Bavarian Chocolate Haus is well worth browsing.
For vintage clothes and designer wear, stop in My Girlfriend's Consignment Boutique in the Eastern Slopes Inn, and for a dazzling selection, from handmade jewelry and household decor to risqué gifts, look into the Penguin Gallery. These are just a few of the interesting places found along Main Street, and doesn't begin to cover the dozens of outlets stores in the shopping plazas just south of town along Route 16. Look there for LL Bean, EMS, Columbia and the outlets of just about every major clothing manufacturer.
Checking out the mountain views
And don't overlook old fashioned sightseeing: The White Mountains views show up best in winter, when the leaves are off the trees and you can see wide vistas of snowcapped mountains -- views that are far more open than in summer.
While there is still snow on the mountains and the trees bare is a good time to circle Mount Washington. Drive Route 16 to Glen and then continue on Route 302 through Crawford Notch. At Twin Mountain take Route 3 north a few miles and then Route 115 to the right. At Route 2 turn right (east) to Gorham and then right (south) on Route 16 down through Pinkham Notch.
Another nice circle drive, but longer, is to take Routes 16 and 302, as above, but at Twin Mountain turn left onto Route 3 south. Route 3 will meet up with I-93 north of Franconia Notch and take it south through Franconia Notch, exiting at North Woodstock-Lincoln for Route 112, the Kancamagus Highway. The Kancamagus is a 34 mile long ride through mountain wilderness, check you gas before starting out. It ends at Route 16 in the village of Conway. Turn left onto Route 16 north and back to North Conway.
Check out the Mount Washington Observatory Weather Discovery Center
On Main Street, opposite the Eastern Slopes Inn, the Mount Washington Observatory Weather Discovery Center is worth several hours spent learning about how the highest mountain in the northeast affects the weather. While kids become engrossed in its many interactive displays, it also grabs the attention of adults. I get a particular kick out of the cabin that replicates the sensation of having been on the top of the mountain when the world's highest recorded land wind (231 MPH) struck 80 years ago April 10th.
Places to stay
North Conway has a multitude of places to stay from rustic cabins to bed and breakfasts and multi-star resort hotels. There is something to fit everyone's whim, taste or pocketbook. A favorite of ours is Spruce Moose Lodge on Seavey Street. It has a number of options and some of them are pet friendly. B&B rooms in the main house are comfortable, inexpensive and home-like. Breakfast here is also a homemade treat. They also have Jacuzzi suites and individual cabins with full kitchens and it is only a couple of blocks from downtown, and is at the foot of Mount Cranmore. Ask about pet friendly options. The Kearsarge Inn, with beautifully decorated rooms in a Victorian mansion, also on Seavey Street, is within walking distance to town but does not serve breakfast though there is a bakery nearby.
Getting to North Conway
From greater Boston and eastern Massachusetts take I-95 north to Portsmouth and following the signs for Route 16 and the NH Mountains to North Conway. West of Boston Take I-93 north to Lincoln, NH, and then taking Route 112, the Kancamagus Highway, to Route 16 north at Conway. From western Massachusetts and Connecticut take I-91 north from Hartford to I-90 (Mass Pike) east. From I-90 take I-495 north to I-95. At Portsmouth follow the signs for Route 16 and the NH Mountains to North Conway.

There is a rumour circulating that the Blue Man Group might be closing at Universal Studios.
It would seem that when the show opened in Orlando it was initially well received but since then people have begun to quickly lose interest. A recent reworking of the show doesn't seem to have help muched and it is still rumored to be missing all sales targets.
So what will they replace it with, well, the other part of the rumor is that Universal Studios is considering replacing it with a 30 minute stage version of the musical Wicked.
Watch this space, as soon as I know more, I'll let you know.

For sometime now, the trend of european power brands focusing in New York has been quite noticeable. Take Armani or Chanel for example. In the case of the masterful brand Christian Dior this is a more increasingly and powerful development.
Recently during the 2014 Tribeca Film Festival, Dior was the focus and the tittle of Frederic Tcheng's Documentary "Dior and I". The film premiered on day one of the festival giving the audience an unusual view inside Dior's ateliers in Paris. We watched with distinction as of a top member of the Dior Couture team is summoned to New York to assist one client. This happens just days before the presentation of their Spring Couture Show.
Just last week Dior presented their Collection Croisière 2015 or Cruise 2015 Collection in English if you will. The Brooklyn Navy Yard, by the banks of the East River, was the setting for the show. Stood by a dynamic strip of water that flows to meet the Hudson. To Dior it is a place that presents an iconic view of Manhattan Island.
In this Cruise Collection, Raf Simons, Artistic Director for Christian Dior, takes the idea of American style and its emblematic place in national identity, combines it with the quintessentially European sensibility of Dior, and presents a subtle, abstracted view of the two made one.
There was no expense too high for the show, just as there is never one (as we see in the documentary), when it comes to pleasing their clients. Dior flew hundreds of people in. That included the designer, and flying in his studio, the atelier, a visual merchandising team, international executives, buyers and merchants.
With 600 guests this was Dior's biggest resort show ever by attendance. All gathered to view 66 looks. Some guests arrived by car but, for the most part people arrived by ferries. Emblazoned with the Dior logo and complete with Champagne poured by sailors dressed in Dior uniforms as well. The collection seemed designed with New York in mind.
America is a constant inspiration for me," says Raf Simons. "The pop culture, the energy, the fluidity... there is just something so alive here. What I always like in America is that there is such a melting pot of styles. But there is always a look – a strong look. Whether it is uptown or downtown, East or West coast, there is always a strength and reality to how women dress here."
On the celebrity endorsement side, Dior and Actress Jennifer Lawrence have extend their relationship with a longer contract. Jennifer Lawrence is not from NY but if she was, she would make a great representation of a young, New York talented actress.
Additionally New York's Dior Homme boutique has recently been joined by a recently opened store in San Francisco's chic Union Square. Located on the eastern edge of the square (at Maiden Lane and Stockton).
Envisioning a globe of customers clad in head-to-toe Dior, the brand has set about building an empire of elegance, "There is nothing I would like better than to make every woman look and feel like a duchess," Mr. Dior once said.
This new approach of Dior on the American costumer is a fulfillment of the legendary Dior's promise to the world of "glamour".
From film, fashion shows, shoots done in New York, territorial coverage and American endorsements, Dior under the creative overview of Raf Simons is a brand that continues to be our french sweetheart.

Flash for Android and WebOS is delayed again
How to lose a war against Apple
HOUSE OF CREATIVE SOFTWARE Adobe is about to make another own goal by delaying its Flash Player for the Android and WebOS operating systems.
Currently Adobe is fighting a war with Steve Jobs, who is leaning on software companies to no longer run Flash.
While this is an example of Jobs' arrogance, he seems to have won some of the tame media over to thinking it is a good idea.
Adobe's biggest allies would be those mobile outfits that stick two fingers up to Steve Jobs's vision of everyone in the universe using an Apple machine and doing what he tells them.
Google's open source Android is lining up to be Apple's biggest competition, unless Microsoft actually manages to pull off its Windows Phone 7 Series.
However today Adobe said the Android Flash player 10.1 is not ready and will not be available until the second half of the year, putting a damper on the hopes of many Android and WebOS users.
Just to make Apple laugh even louder, Adobe CEO Shantanu Narayen added that a BlackBerry version will also be made available at the same time. That second half thing actually means September, we imagine.
When it finally comes out for Android, WebOS and Blackberry, the full player, which is already available for Windows and Mac machines, will support all Flash videos as well as websites that use Flash for navigation or have Flash splash screens.
Adobe says the software will take full advantage of the differing capabilities of the mobile phones it runs on, including multi-touch support and hardware acceleration. µ

Sample Chapter
Living Wisely, Living Well
Timeless Wisdom to Enrich Every Day
by Swami Kriyananda
Humor arises out of a sudden release of tension with the introduction of some unexpected incongruity. This release, if followed by an upward relaxation into the higher Self, may give a fleeting glimpse of soul-joy. Let this years "April Fool's Day," then, bring you upward release into the happiness of your inner being, and not draw you down into whirlpools of mockery and cynicism.
Generosity in victory is self-conquest. It loosens the shackles of pride, and fills one with a deep sense of inner gratitude.
If you have a good idea, it may be "the better part of valor" to discuss it with those only who share your ideals. Protect it from people who might jeer, simply because it fails to conform with their preconceptions. Let your confidence gain strength before exposing the idea to human goats, who take pleasure in nibbling on other people's inspirations.
Attachments are self-limitinglike prison bars. Ah, but see! Between the bars there is space. If you concentrate on that space, the bars will disappear: they consist only of your own "iron stubbornness, its atoms being your repeated affirmation of a false reality.
To achieve inner freedom, make a mental bonfire every night, before you go to sleep, of all your attachments, self-definitions, desires, and aversions. Nothing that can be measured, weighed, timed, or hoarded can ever truly belong to you. Toss into the flames, piece by piece, every obstacle to your inner peace. Feel your joy soaring skyward, as your limitations, one by one, go up in smoke.
Make it a point today to tell someone whom you love, I deeply appreciate you for what you are, for what you have done for others, and for what you have given me. Never take anyone close to you for granted.
Make it a point this day to single out someone whose worth many have failed to appreciate. Take the time to show him or her your appreciation. (That person must, after all, have some admirable quality! Emphasize it.)
Welcome any suggestion for improving your ideas. At the same time, protect them from others meddling. Be clear in your mind as to your true intentions.
Purity, innocence, and an absence of selfish motive: these, together, form a diadem more brilliant than that displayed on any emperors brow.
Let nothing tempt you ever to compromise an ideal. Morality is not a question of convention. The Ten Commandments are engraved in human nature on tablets of light. The true reason why theft, violence, murder, and other crimes are wrong is that they hurt first of all the perpetrator himself, condemning him to ever-deeper dungeon levels in the rock fortress of his egoism. If you arm yourself, however, with truthfulness, honesty, and integrity, you will emerge someday into perfect soul freedom.
Tune into others inner realities. Though the words you speak be similar, your realities may be as different as unrelated languages.
Be more concerned with understanding others than with being understood by them. They too, then, will usually give you their support.
Be solution-oriented, not problem-oriented. Problem consciousness only draws to itself more problems, as flypaper draws flies. But solution consciousness, like a magnet, attracts answers and shines a bright light onto every difficulty.
Be happy in yourself. If, in a plea for happiness, you hold out a begging bowl to life, the bowl will remain always empty.
Dont confuse intelligence with cleverness. True intelligence isnt only cerebral. Its roots lie in clear feeling. Cleverness usually indicates only narrow feelings.
See every problem as an opportunity. Whenever you demolish the obstacles before you, your power for ultimate victory will increase.
Be restful in your heart. A quiet spirit will help you instantly to resolve problems that might otherwise require days, weeks, or even months of fretful ponderingand even then you wouldnt be certain of the rightness of your decision.
Speak kindly to animals. As human beings are helped upward in their evolution by keeping saintly company, so animal evolution is hastened by association with human beings. You yourself will be helped also, if you extend a helping hand to creatures lower than yourself on the evolutionary scale.
Seek upliftment in the company you keep. Others magnetism will affect you, whether for good or evil. Make it a point to mix more with people who radiate goodness. Live, if possible, with spiritually minded people. Especially, seek out and live in a community whose members are dedicated to living by high principles.
In any magnetic interchange, what you give out to others will affect what you receive from them. To ensure the greatest protection from all harmful influences, try to act as a channel of divine blessings to all.
Eat either alone or in uplifting company. When one is eating, he places himself in a frame of mind to absorb energy. He is then more open than usual to the vibrations around him. In public eating places, the vibrations are heterogeneous. There, be centered more than usually in the spine. Otherwise, visit such places with true friends. And always eat in harmony.
Gaze into the eyes of people whose magnetism youd like to attract. Avoid, on the other hand, the gaze of those whose magnetism might adversely affect your inner peace. Your eternal duty in life is to emerge from the swamp of ignorance, which breeds the pestilence of suffering. Avoid contact with anyone whose magnetism might draw you downward. Delusion keeps people in error for countless incarnations; it has its own dark magnetism. Those who seek truth must avoid ignorance as they would a contagious disease. Avoid especially the brooding gaze of those who live only to gratify their senses.
Dont ask more of others than you would ask of yourself.
The vibratory interchange between the sexes generates a strong magnetism. Maintain, therefore, a discreet mental distance from, and minimize your contact with, those of the other sex whose consciousness is sensual or worldly. As much as possible, avoid contact of the eyes or hands. (A handclasp creates two horseshoe magnets: the one upward, uniting the upper bodies; the other downward, uniting the lower.) With such people, take care to be centered in the Self.
A principle of magnetic interchange between people is that the stronger magnet always influences the weaker, never the reverse. Unless your inner strength is great, never think yourself capable of uplifting others merely by the exercise of good will.
Keep a spiritual bodyguard, especially when circumstances require you to mix with uncongenial people. The magnetism of two is stronger than that of one. When moving in a crowd, try never to go alone; always have a few friends around you. If you must be in crowds, imagine yourself haloed by an aura of light. Consciously emanate vibrations of love and joy all around you. One evening, years ago, I was obliged to enter the nightclub district of San Francisco. As I went, I silently chanted, Sri Ram, jai Ram, jai jai Ram. I was aware of tentacles of negativity reaching out to grab me, but they slipped by without even touching me.
Sow seeds of faith, where others have sown doubt.
Be grateful alwaysto others, to life, to God. Express appreciation for everything. Appreciation and gratitudeeven for such tests as sufferingwill attract to you the blessing of increasing abundance.
Let others feel your support in their worthwhile undertakings. Even if they do something of which you dont approve, let them feel your support for what they are.
To break a persons will is a sin before God. Allow others to develop at their own pace, to make their own mistakes, to learn their own lessons. How else will they ever evolve, spiritually?

As was pointed out by WRCBtv.com out of Chattanooga today, The Broad Institute in Massachusetts and Uppsala University in Sweden have been conducting research on this very topic. They have pinpointed four genes with variances that were present in canines that were diagnosed with OCD, but not in a comparison group of dogs that included Greyhounds and Leonbergers (Lion Dogs); the latter of which do not show high rates of canine OCD.
The four genes discovered are included amongst those whose job is to form simple connections between brain cells that allow them to transmit information. Our brains contain thousands, if not millions, of cells that connect in this very way in order to form a circuit in our brains. Elinor Karlsson, Ph.D. explains that when a circuit of this caliber is broken, that is when OCD occurs. Perhaps that is why a dog will lick its paw until he or she injures it or that a human will wash their hands until they bleed. Hopefully now we can find some relief for this debilitating disorder – for both humans and canines!
Since the human brain is more complex than the canine brain, the disorder tends to be more complex in human beings, but it is difficult to witness your dog suffering from OCD and there is not a thing you can do to stop it! That is why this research is so essential; once again man's best friend is coming through in the clutch for the human species!
The hope is that the simple genetic architectural structure of the canine will lend itself to the more complicated architectural structure of the human brain and the human OCD factor. Since about one in every 100 adults and at least one in 200 children and teens tend to be affected by Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, it would be important to find something to help this massive amount of people.
Whatever is discovered can potentially help with the counseling, cognitive behavioral therapy and medications properly administered and in the right dosage. It is very important that the correct treatment of OCD be applied so as to help both people and dogs through this illness.
Misdiagnosis can lead to further issues such as intense anxiety as well as time-consuming and embarrassing compulsive behaviors that cannot stop without help. The people that have OCD do not want to carry forth this behavior, but are unable to stop.
So far what has been discovered in the canines is helping them; the OCD treatments are working. Let's just hope that this means only good things for the humans struggling with this illness in the near future!

Cent. States, SE & SW Areas Health & Welfare Fund v. Lewis, No. 13-2214 (7th Cir. 2014)Annotate this Case
Justia Opinion Summary
Lewis was injured in an automobile accident and her health plan paid $180,000 for her medical treatment Lewis filed a tort suit against the driver (her son-in-law), represented by Georgia lawyer Lashgari, and obtained a $500,000 settlement. Lashgari knew the plan had a subrogation lien, but split the proceeds between himself and Lewis. He claimed that the plan was owed nothing. The plan filed suit under ERISA to enforce the lien, 29 U.S.C. 1132(a)(3). The defendants argued that because the settlement funds have been dissipated, the suit was actually for damages, not authorized by ERISA. The district judge ordered the defendants to place $180,000 in Lashgari's trust account pending judgment. The defendants did not comply. A year later, the defendants having neither placed any money in a trust account nor produced any evidence of their inability to pay, the judge held them in civil contempt, ordered them to produce records that would establish their financial situations, and ordered Lashgari to documents relating to the contempt to the General Counsel of the State Bar for possible disciplinary proceedings against him. The defendants appealed the contempt order. The Seventh Circuit dismissed, characterizing the appeal as frivolous and the defendants' conduct as outrageous.

In the United States Court of Appeals For the Seventh Circuit ____________________ No. 13 2214 CENTRAL STATES, SOUTHEAST AND SOUTHWEST AREAS HEALTH AND WELFARE FUND, and ARTHUR H. BUNTE, JR., Trustee, Plaintiffs Appellees, v. BEVERLY LEWIS and DAVID T. LASHGARI, Defendants Appellants. ____________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division. No. 11 C 4845 Joan Humphrey Lefkow, Judge. ____________________ ARGUED FEBRUARY 19, 2014 DECIDED MARCH 12, 2014 ____________________ Before POSNER, RIPPLE, and KANNE, Circuit Judges. POSNER, Circuit Judge. The defendants appeal from an or der of the district court holding them in contempt. Beverly Lewis was injured in an automobile accident in Georgia, and her health plan (the principal plaintiff in this case) paid $180,000 for the cost of her medical treatment (we round off all dollar figures to the nearest thousand). Represented by 2 No. 13 2214 the other defendant in the present suit, Georgia lawyer Da vid T. Lashgari, Lewis brought a tort suit in Georgia state court against the driver of the car involved in the accident (her son in law), and obtained a $500,000 settlement. The plan had and Lashgari knew it had a subrogation lien: that is, a right, secured by a lien, to offset the cost that the plan had incurred as a result of the accident against any money that Lewis obtained in a suit arising out of the acci dent. The lien was thus a secured claim against the proceeds of the settlement. But when Lashgari received the settlement proceeds in June 2011, instead of giving $180,000 of the $500,000 to the plan he split the proceeds between himself and his client. He claimed that the plan was owed nothing because the settlement had been intended solely to compen sate Lewis for the driver s post accident tortious conduct against her. That s nonsense; the settlement agreement states that it encompass[es] all claims and demands whatsoever that were or could have been asserted ¦ [for] damages, loss, or injury ¦ which may be traced either directly or indirectly to the occurrences set forth in the aforesaid civil action [the personal injury suit arising from the accident] ¦ no matter how remotely they may be related to the aforesaid occur rences. Even the check that Lashgari wrote to Lewis for her share of the proceeds says it s for settlement of all 10/08/08 claims and October 8, 2008 was the date of the accident. Lashgari s refusal to honor the subrogation lien precipi tated the present suit, filed in July 2011, a suit under ERISA to enforce the lien. See 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(3). The defendants argued in the district court that because the settlement funds have been dissipated, this really is a suit for damages that No. 13 2214 3 is, a suit at law rather than in equity and therefore not au thorized by 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(3). But the defendants are wrong. The plan wasn t required to trace the settlement pro ceeds. Its equitable lien automatically gave rise to a construc tive trust of the defendant s assets. Sereboff v. Mid Atlantic Medical Services, Inc., 547 U.S. 356, 363 64 (2006); Gutta v. Standard Select Trust Ins. Plans, 530 F.3d 614, 621 (7th Cir. 2008); Longaberger Co. v. Kolt, 586 F.3d 459, 469 (6th Cir. 2009). In February 2012 the plan moved the district court for en try of a preliminary injunction against the defendants dis posing of the settlement proceeds until the plan received its $180,000 share. The district judge granted the motion in May and also ordered the defendants to place at least $180,000 in Lashgari s client trust fund account pending final judgment in the case. The defendants complied with neither order. They said they couldn t pay $180,000, which if true would be at least a partial defense. In re Resource Technology Corp., 624 F.3d 376, 387 (7th Cir. 2010). (It would not be a complete de fense unless they couldn t pay any part of the $180,000.) A year later, with the defendants having neither placed any part of the $180,000 in a trust account as ordered nor pro duced any evidence of their inability to pay, the judge held them in civil contempt, ordered them to produce records that would establish their financial situations, and ordered Lashgari to submit a variety of documents relating to the contempt to the General Counsel of the State Bar of Georgia for possible disciplinary proceedings against him. The finan cial records that the defendants had submitted up to that point were, as we ll see, absurdly inadequate. We do not know whether the defendants have since produced detailed 4 No. 13 2214 records, or if Lashgari ever submitted anything to the State Bar of Georgia. A finding of civil contempt of a judicial order is appeal able, even when it is interlocutory as in this case, if but only if the underlying order is appealable. E.g., Halderman v. Pennhurst State School & Hospital, 673 F.2d 628, 635 36 (3d Cir. 1982) (en banc); Thomas J. André, Jr., The Final Judg ment Rule and Party Appeals of Civil Contempt Orders: Time for a Change, 55 N.Y.U. L. Rev. 1041, 1048 and n. 48 (1980). Otherwise a litigant could obtain appellate review of any interlocutory order, at will, by defying it. Cleveland Hair Clinic, Inc. v. Puig, 106 F.3d 165, 167 (7th Cir. 1997). The pur pose of the contempt order in this case was to enforce the preliminary injunction, and a preliminary injunction is an appealable interlocutory order. 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1). (The injunction was preliminary and therefore interlocutory be cause the suit remains pending in the district court, where the parties have filed cross motions for summary judgment.) And it was an injunction in fact and not just in name be cause, unlike a discovery order (which isn t appealable, Mo hawk Industries, Inc. v. Carpenter, 558 U.S. 100, 107 09 (2009); Aurora Bancshares Corp. v. Weston, 777 F.2d 385, 386 (7th Cir. 1985) (per curiam); International Products Corp. v. Koons, 325 F.2d 403, 406 07 (2d Cir. 1963) (Friendly, J.)), it g[a]ve or aid[ed] in giving some or all of the substantive relief sought by [the] complaint, id. at 406, by ordering the defendants to restore $180,000 to the settlement fund and place the entire fund in a trust account. All this leaves unanswered why a finding of civil con tempt should ever be appealable as an interlocutory order. We can t find a good answer, but a possible though incom No. 13 2214 5 plete one is that a prerequisite to certain interlocutory ap peals (such as appeals of preliminary injunctions) irreparable harm to the applicant for the injunction if it is denied often is applicable to orders of civil contempt. Al though a court hearing an appeal from a final decision may reverse a lower court s contempt ruling, it may not be able to undo the injury already suffered by a contemnor, André, supra, at 1084 although not in this case. The judge imposed no fine or jail for noncompliance; other than ordering Lash gari to report himself to Georgia bar officials, the contempt order did little more than vent the judge s anger at the de fendants contumacious effrontery. Nevertheless the rule al lowing interlocutory appeal from an order of contempt of an order itself eligible for interlocutory appeal is general and confirms our jurisdiction. So we come to the merits. The defendants appeal brief is a gaunt, pathetic document (there is no reply brief). Minus formal matter, it is only eight and a half pages long. Brevity is the soul of wit, and all that, but still: the first seven and a half pages are simply a recitation of the history of the Geor gia lawsuit, the settlement negotiations, and the present suit, along with questionable and irrelevant facts; and the tiny argument section of the brief 118 words, including cita tions states merely, without detail or elaboration, that the defendants do not possess the settlement funds and there fore can t restore them. The only supporting evidence cited (it is not discussed) is an affidavit by Lewis saying that she and her husband had spent her entire share of the settlement proceeds on a new house, a vehicle, and repayment of per sonal loans, medical expenses, prescriptions, living ex penses, and other expenses ; a pair of affidavits by Lashgari stating that neither he nor his law firm is in possession of 6 No. 13 2214 funds that could be used to restore $180,000 to a client trust account; and a bank statement dated June 2011 for a trust account maintained by Lashgari s law firm, Lashgari & As sociates, P.C., www.lawyers4carwrecks.com (visited March 12, 2014). The bank statement shows the $500,000 deposit of the settlement proceeds and a subsequent withdrawal of $202,000, representing Lashgari s disbursement to Lewis of her share of the settlement. The share he retained $298,000, a shade short of 60 percent of the settlement proceeds seems too high for a contingent fee, but he argues that Lewis owed him for unspecified advances that he had made to her. The latest entry in the statement is for June 30, 2011 fewer than three weeks before this lawsuit was filed and shows a balance of $341,000. These documents the only evidence cited in the defen dants brief show that Lewis and Lashgari willfully ig nored the plan s lien against the settlement proceeds. Lew is s statement does not indicate the value of her assets; even if she has spent every last cent of the settlement proceeds that she received, it doesn t follow that she s assetless presumably she still has the vehicle and the house, and she has not indicated their value. And though her statement was not notarized until December 2012, it purports to state her financial situation as of May 2012; there is no subsequent in formation about her finances. As with Lewis, so with Lash gari: one of his affidavits states that the money in the trust account from Lewis s settlement has been spent, but there is no information about the account s current balance or the assets of his law firm. The defendants may think that a mere assertion of inabil ity to pay made in an affidavit (and thus under oath) pre No. 13 2214 7 cludes a finding of contempt. Not so. United States v. Ry lander, 460 U.S. 752, 757 58 (1983); United States ex rel. Thom v. Jenkins, 760 F.2d 736, 739 40 (7th Cir. 1985); Huber v. Ma rine Midland Bank, 51 F.3d 5, 10 11 (2d Cir. 1995); People v. Zimmer, 87 N.E. 845, 847 48 (Ill. 1909). Few judgments would be paid were that the rule. It s true that if a sworn as sertion of inability to pay is false the affiant can be prose cuted for perjury. But the likelihood of prosecution for per jury committed in a civil suit is slight. (It is slight in a crimi nal case as well, though if the defendant is convicted a find ing that he perjured himself can be used to increase his sen tence. U.S.S.G. § 3C1.1 and Application Note 4(B).) See Erin Murphy, Manufacturing Crime: Process, Pretext, and Criminal Justice, 97 Geo. L.J. 1435, 1489 91 (2009); Jonathan Liebman & Joel Cohen, Perjury and Civil Litigation, 20 Litigation, Summer 1994, at 43, 44 45. The appeal is frivolous, and the plan asks us not only to dismiss it but also to award, as just damages authorized by Fed. R. App. P. 38, the attorneys fees that the plan has incurred in defending against the appeal. The plan was rep resented by an in house lawyer, but that doesn t defeat a claim for attorneys fees. Rather, in such a case the amount awarded is based on the market price of those services in the law firm market. Lawyers who devote their time to one case are unavailable for others, and in deciding whether it is prudent to pursue a given case a firm must decide whether the cost including opportunities foregone in some other case, or the price of outside counsel to pursue that other case is worthwhile. Opportunity cost, rather than cash out lay, is the right way to value legal services. The going rate for comparable legal services in the market reveals that cost directly, avoiding a complex inquiry that is in the end likely 8 No. 13 2214 to produce a comparable figure. Central States, Southeast & Southwest Areas Pension Fund v. Central Cartage Co., 76 F.3d 114, 116 (7th Cir. 1996) (citations omitted); cf. Board of Trus tees of Hotel & Restaurant Employees Local 25 v. JPR, Inc., 136 F.3d 794, 804 05 (D.C. Cir. 1998); see also Blum v. Stenson, 465 U.S. 886, 893 95 (1984). We are issuing an order to the defendants to show cause why they should not be sanctioned under Rule 38 for filing a frivolous appeal. Their response is due within 30 days from the date of this decision. We close by registering our concern that the district court has allowed this suit to drag on for so long. Filed more than two and a half years ago, the case remains pending in the district court (where the parties have as we noted filed cross motions for summary judgment that the district judge has not yet ruled on) even though the defendants have no color able defenses. As soon as the defenses were pleaded that the settlement was not of Lewis s personal injury claim aris ing from the accident, that the plan didn t have standing to sue under ERISA, and (another frivolous contention) that Lewis hadn t been properly served the court should have smelled a rat. And the stench rose when the defendants ig nored or defied discovery requests (causing the court to grant a motion to compel) and disobeyed orders to prepare for a settlement conference, thus forcing its cancellation; and when Lashgari s lawyer withdrew in June 2012 over differ ences in material litigation strategy with Lashgari and when Lewis s lawyers followed suit in September. The pre liminary injunction was not issued until ten months after the suit had been filed and the contempt order not until a year after that. We don t understand why the judge waited until No. 13 2214 9 the contempt hearing before ordering the turnover of docu ments, and why she didn t notify the General Counsel of the Georgia Bar of Lashgari s shenanigans herself rather than entrust the responsibility of doing so to the untrustworthy Lashgari. The sequence is so strange: to find the defendants in contempt, and only then order them to produce documen tation confirming (or, improbably, refuting) their contemp tuous behavior. The defendants conduct has been outrageous. After re solving the merits of the underlying suit, the district court should give serious consideration to transmitting copies of this opinion and the record to the Department of Justice and to the General Counsel of the Georgia Bar. In the meantime, we direct the district court to determine whether the defen dants should be jailed (a standard remedy for civil contempt, see, e.g., Turner v. Rogers, 131 S. Ct. 2507, 2512 13 (2011); In re Grand Jury Proceedings, 280 F.3d 1103, 1107 08 (7th Cir. 2002)), until they comply with the order to deposit the set tlement proceeds in a trust account. Order to show cause issued, and appeal DISMISSED.

"The Mercedes Viano is essentially a van with more seats, so there's loads of interior space."
Available in three body sizes, Compact, Long and Extra Long, the Mercedes Viano is based on the Mercedes Vito commercial van and comes in two trims, Trend and Ambient. As standard the Mercedes-Benz Viano comes with a 2-3-3 layout offering seating for up to seven passengers plus the driver. Other layouts include a 2-2-2 layout of six individual chairs, with a centre row that can also be fitted facing backwards. All benches and individual seats slide on rails and are completely removable to offer a vast load carrying area. There are three diesel engine options available, including a range-topping 3.0-litre V6 with 220bhp.
MPG, running costs & CO2
Below average running costs
Buyers looking for the most fuel efficient version of the Viano should go for the 134bhp 2.0 diesel engine as it is capable of 38.7mpg and produces 192g/km of CO2 which means it'll cost £245 per year to tax- all models fall into the same tax group however. The optional automatic gearbox does little to dent the running costs and is actually slightly faster.
Engines, drive & performance
Difficult to park - it's a huge van, after all
The driving position in the Viano is excllent for a van-based MPV offering loads of room, even for drivers well over 6ft tall. Best suited to long journeys on motorways the Viano makes perfect sense for taxi firms offering airport connections or large families planning long road trips on the continent. Because the Viano is so large parking is very tricky and on twisty, bumpy roads the ride does suffer, it remains predictable though. We'd choose the 2.2 CDI Ambiente model as it is well priced against the competition and includes the added luxury of leather seats and the smooth automatic gearbox.
Interior & comfort
Top-spec models can carry up to seven passengers in comfort
Available in three body sizes, the two long wheelbase versions offer massses of passenger legroom, whilst headroom is plentiful in all models. The extra long versions simply add increased levels of boot space to long wheelbase versions. The standard model is adequate for most owners however. The seats are all comfortable and the the cabin is well protected from road noise, despite its commercial origins. Limited edition Avantagarde 125 models take interior comfort to luxury car levels - but it's really pricey.
Practicality & boot space
Huge cabin is very versatile
The twin-sliding doors make getting in and out of the Viano very easy, they are also very useful in tight car parking spaces. The standard seating layout consists of two front seats and two sliding three-seater rear benches, offering seating for seven passenegers and a driver. Optional arm-chair seats are available as an option replacing either row of benches, they can also be fitted in reverse, facing one-another, to create a mobile meeting room. The arm-chairs fold flat to create tables or can be removed altogether to create a huge loading bay- storing them is tricky however and they are very heavy. The large door pockets and glovebox are handy for storing loose items and the roof-hinged tailgate provides a useful shelter from the elements when loading and unloading luggage.
Reliability & safety
Mechanically strong and proven in crash testing
Crash tested in 2008 by Euro NCAP the Viano scored four stars for adult safety and three for children. The mechanical build quality of the Viano is very high as it shares a platform with Mercedes' highly dependable commercial van, the Vito. Some of the cabin materials feel much cheaper than the ones found in Mercedes cars however, although it is most noticeable in lower spec Trend models. Several recalls early in the model's life should now be completely ironed-out.
Price, value for money & options
Cheaper than its VW rival, but still expensive
The Viano is priced around £4,000 less than the Volkswagen Caravelle, but considerably more than the Peugeot Expert Teepee. All models are well equipped featuring air conditioning, Bluetooth, electric front and rear windows, cruise control plus driver and front passenger airbags. Ambient models add an automatic gearbox, leather upholstery and wood effect trim.

There are four Catholic arch dioceses
Posted Saturday, January 4 2014 at 02:00
I am not the spokesman of the Catholic church nor do I bear any office in the hierarchy or structures of the Church.
I am an ordinary Catholic, only seeking to correct a common mistake. The Catholic Church 'territory' in Kampala is called Kampala Archdiocese and headed by an Archbishop. It is not Kampala Diocese as it is frequently referred to. There are four Catholic Archdioceses in Uganda:
Kampala, Mbarara, Tororo and Gulu. These same archdioceses are the seats of the Ecclesiastical Provinces: Kampala which brings together all the dioceses in central region; Mbarara brings together all the dioceses in western region; Tororo which brings together all the dioceses in eastern region, and Gulu, which brings together all the dioceses in the northern region.
Blessed 2014

Mozilla has been rolling out new betas for Firefox rather quickly these days. The improvements made to Firefox 4 have been quite impressive so far, and now some of those improvements are making their way to your Maemo and Android smartphones.
Formerly known as Fennec, Firefox 4 Beta for mobile has hit the beta stage, and is apparently based on the same technologies as the desktop version, but optimized for the browser. According to Mozilla, the browser has improved responsiveness by separating the processes for page rendering and everything else in the browser, which sounds like a good idea. For the end user, Firefox 4 Beta for mobile has the touch-friendly features you'd expect like pinch-to-zoom and double-tap to zoom as well as a thumbnail view for tabbed browsing. And interesting feature is the "Awesome Screen," which comes up by just tapping on the Awesome Bar (location bar), and populates with your recently visited sites, bookmarks, and tabs.
The mobile browser also features Firefox Sync, so you can sync your bookmarks, tabs, history, and saved log-ins, making it much easier to switch between browsing on your phone and computer. It will also feature add-ons at some point, though they don't seem to be in this version. So, if you have a Maemo device or an Android phone running Android 2.0+, go ahead and pick it up. For those of us using iPhones we'll have to stick with Firefox Home if we want to use Firefox Sync. BlackBerry users will have to try to forget that this beta exists, and continue lusting after the PlayBook instead of worrying about silly open-sourced software on other, possibly more popular mobile os.

Cinderella shook the crowd "all night long" this past Wednesday night at the Turning Stone Casino in Vernon NY. Led by frontman, Tom Keifer on vocals, Eric Brittingham on bass, Jeff LaBar on guitar and Fred Coury on drums, it brings you right back to the 1980's with their classic guitar flipping antics and fun party rock vibes. You could almost smell the Aqua Net in the air and see visions of those zebra print spandex pants which back then were all the rage! Joining them on stage was Gary Corbett on keyboards. A full-time touring member of Cinderella, Corbett has also toured with Kiss, Lou Gramm, and has worked with Bob Marley's sons and also co-wrote "She Bop" with Ms. Cyndi Lauper.
A Cinderella show really bring you back in time, as they play so many of the hits we all know and love like "Gypsy Rose," "Shake Me," "Night Songs," "The More Things Change," "Nobody's Fool," etc. while bringing back those classic Cinderella sense of style – top hats, double neck guitars, that classic purple stage lights
and the flipping of the guitars over the shoulder as only those guys can do. Musically, they are still right on top of their game; just as solid as I remember them back in the day. Keifer's vocals were strong and the band was like your favorite pair of jeans – tight, slick and emphasizing all the right parts in a smooth and familiar manner. The crowd was yelling out the songs they wanted to hear in between songs and everyone was dancing and really just having a great time as it should be. It's fun to see the next generation that grew up listening to their parent's albums also at the show.
Cinderella will continue to tour across North America this summer, from NY to CA. Don't miss out on the fun! Catch them when they are in your town. Tour Dates listed bellow:

Strappy Chiffon Tank Top – Burdastyle 10/2014 #117
I made this layered top fairly quickly, using only vintage cotton remnants, and I had just the amount of fabric for both tops (I have many small to medium sized vintage left-over pieces in my stash). For the underneath top, I think the material may be slightly more thicker than was needed, well its thicker than the over top lol, but I liked the color match. Ok thats my last offering for the year before i go house-sitting haha (I am not taking my sewing machine lol). Location: St Mary's Bay.
