+class Object
+  # Returns +value+ after yielding +value+ to the block. This simplifies the
+  # process of constructing an object, performing work on the object, and then
+  # returning the object from a method. It is a Ruby-ized realization of the K
+  # combinator, courtesy of Mikael Brockman.
+  #
+  # ==== Examples
+  #
+  #  # Without returning
+  #  def foo
+  #    values = []
+  #    values << "bar"
+  #    values << "baz"
+  #    return values
+  #  end
+  #
+  #  foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
+  #
+  #  # returning with a local variable
+  #  def foo
+  #    returning values = [] do
+  #      values << 'bar'
+  #      values << 'baz'
+  #    end
+  #  end
+  #
+  #  foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
+  #  
+  #  # returning with a block argument
+  #  def foo
+  #    returning [] do |values|
+  #      values << 'bar'
+  #      values << 'baz'
+  #    end
+  #  end
+  #  
+  #  foo # => ['bar', 'baz']
+  def returning(value)
+    yield(value)
+    value
+  end
+
+  # An elegant way to factor duplication out of options passed to a series of
+  # method calls. Each method called in the block, with the block variable as
+  # the receiver, will have its options merged with the default +options+ hash
+  # provided. Each method called on the block variable must take an options
+  # hash as its final argument.
+  # 
+  #   with_options :order => 'created_at', :class_name => 'Comment' do |post|
+  #     post.has_many :comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', true], :dependent => :delete_all
+  #     post.has_many :unapproved_comments, :conditions => ['approved = ?', false]
+  #     post.has_many :all_comments
+  #   end
+  #
+  # Can also be used with an explicit receiver:
+  #
+  #   map.with_options :controller => "people" do |people|
+  #     people.connect "/people",     :action => "index"
+  #     people.connect "/people/:id", :action => "show"
+  #   end
+  #
+  def with_options(options)
+    yield ActiveSupport::OptionMerger.new(self, options)
+  end
+  
+  # A duck-type assistant method. For example, Active Support extends Date
+  # to define an acts_like_date? method, and extends Time to define
+  # acts_like_time?. As a result, we can do "x.acts_like?(:time)" and
+  # "x.acts_like?(:date)" to do duck-type-safe comparisons, since classes that
+  # we want to act like Time simply need to define an acts_like_time? method.
+  def acts_like?(duck)
+    respond_to? "acts_like_#{duck}?"
+  end
