The Chicago Tribune reports when Mars Inc. pulled the plug on its short-lived Ethel's Chocolate Lounges in the Chicago area this spring, some read it as a sign that recession-weary consumers have little appetite for reclining in plush purple chairs, eating hand-painted truffles and dipping strawberries in gooey, hot chocolate fondue.
Think again, says newfound chocolatier and small business owner Debra Jenrette.
The former owner of an office equipment firm believes there are plenty of stressed-out folks looking for a little pampering. So, after a yearlong crash course in the art of chocolate -- visiting all manner of luxury chocolate boutiques, working in a handmade -chocolate plant and tasting more chocolates than you can imagine -- Jenrette took the plunge. She purchased New York-based Anna Shea Chocolates amp; Loungefrom its Finnish namesake founder last month and is relocating its headquarters to a South Barrington shopping mall. (Shea is married to Jenrette's nephew, Tim Shea.)

According to The Associated Press, it has become a trend to settle class action lawsuits by doling out coupons instead of cash.
Take the a href=http://www.rkallp.com/specialty_areas.htmlclass action lawsuit/a regarding the Ford Explorer rollover issues, decided in California recently. The lawyers were paid millions of dollars. Everyone else involved seemingly got some tangible benefit — except for nearly all of the 1 million consumers covered by the class action lawsuit filed in their name. None of the consumers got money, only span style=background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous class=yshortcuts id=lw_1249296138_2discount coupons/span toward new Ford purchases. Few used them.
This California-based a href=http://www.rkallp.com/class action case/a stands out even against the backdrop of endless debate over span style=background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; cursor: pointer; -moz-background-clip: border; -moz-background-origin: padding; -moz-background-inline-policy: continuous class=yshortcuts id=lw_1249296138_16class action litigation/span where lawyers get multi-million-dollar paydays for settlements that have minimal value for most of their clients.

The Court ruled that this case requires another trial, since there is no way of knowing who the biased jurors were during this case thus the case requires another hearing before a final verdict can be reached. This was the largest New Jersey a href=http://www.kellygrouppc.com/john-q-kelly-lawyer-attorney.htmlmedical malpractice case/a in the history of the state.
