title: Writing a helper method to use in the controller
body: <p>From my readings looks like Helpers are for views.
  The thing is that I want to pass some ugly hard coded JSON back to my view from the controller until my REST service gets ready. So I can just hard code it in the controller of course but was wondering if there is a cleaner way of not polluting the controller with that hard coded stuff and somehow writing it in a helper and calling that helper method in the controller instead.</p>
  
  <p>So what do you suggest for that? </p>
