Studies in Software as a Service
You can find a web service that does almost anything your home computer can do. This month we study some examples of Software as a Service.
Years ago, it was common for an application to run on a central system with a ring of users operating through terminals or terminal-style network connections. This vision lives on today in the form of web-based applications providing software as a service. The web-application paradigm means no one has to burn the software onto a CD, package it in a colorful box, and ship it to a retail shop. In fact, you don't even need to provide a download link or offer a help line for users who can't get through the installation. All the end user needs to do is start up a browser and click on a link.

How many people get lung cancer?
What is small cell lung cancer?
Note: This document covers only the small-cell type of lung cancer. The treatment for small cell lung cancer is very different from the treatment for non-small cell lung cancer. Much of the information for one type will not apply to the other type. If you don't know which type of lung cancer you have, ask your doctor so you can be sure you are looking at the right information.
Lung cancer is a cancer starts in the lungs. To understand lung cancer, it helps to know something about the lungs and how they work.
The lungs
The lungs are 2 sponge-like organs found in the chest. The right lung has 3 sections, called lobes. The left lung has 2 lobes. The left lung is smaller because the heart takes up more room on that side of the body.
When you breathe in, air enters through your mouth and nose and goes into your lungs through the windpipe (trachea). The trachea divides into tubes called the bronchi, which enter the lungs and divide into smaller branches called the bronchioles. At the end of the bronchioles are tiny air sacs known as alveoli.
Many tiny blood vessels run through the alveoli. They absorb oxygen from the air you breathe in and pass carbon dioxide from the body into the alveoli to be breathed out when you exhale. Taking in oxygen and getting rid of carbon dioxide are your lungs' main functions.
The thin lining around the lungs, called the pleura, helps to protect the lungs and allows them to move during breathing.
Below the lungs, a thin muscle called the diaphragm separates the chest from the belly (abdomen). When you breathe, the diaphragm moves up and down, forcing air in and out of the lungs.
Start and spread of lung cancer
Most lung cancer starts in the cells lining the lung airways.
Lung cancers are thought to start as areas of pre-cancer changes in the lung. These changes are not a mass or tumor. They can't be seen on an x-ray and they don't cause symptoms.
Over time, these changes in the cells may go on to become true cancer. The cancer makes chemicals that cause new blood vessels to form nearby. These new blood vessels feed the cancer cells and allow a tumor to form. In time, the tumor becomes large enough to show up on an x-ray.
At some point, lung cancer cells can break away and spread to other parts of the body in a process called metastasis. Lung cancer can be a life-threatening disease because it often spreads this way before it is found.
The lymph system
One of the ways lung cancer can spread is through the lymph system. Lymph vessels are like veins, but they carry lymph instead of blood. Lymph is a clear fluid that contains tissue waste and cells that fight infection.
Lung cancer cells can enter lymph vessels and begin to grow in lymph nodes (small collections of immune cells) around the bronchi and in the space between the lungs. Once lung cancer cells have reached the lymph nodes, they are more likely to have spread to other organs of the body. The extent (stage) of the cancer and decisions about treatment are based in part on whether or not the cancer has spread to the nearby lymph nodes. We talk about this more in the section "Staging for small cell lung cancer."
Types of lung cancer
There are 2 main types of lung cancer and they are treated very differently.
- Small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
- Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
(If the cancer has features of both types, it is called mixed small cell/non-small cell cancer. This is not common.)
The information here only covers small cell lung cancer. Non-small cell lung cancer is covered in our document Lung Cancer (Non-Small Cell).
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC)
About 10% to15% of all lung cancers are the small cell type. Other names for SCLC are oat cell carcinoma and small cell undifferentiated carcinoma.
This cancer often starts in the bronchi near the center of the chest. It tends to grow and spread quickly, and it has almost always spread to distant parts of the body before it is found.
Non-small cell lung cancer
About 85% to 90% of lung cancers are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). There are different types of NSCLC, but they are grouped together because the approach to treatment and prognosis (outlook) are similar.
Other types of lung cancer
Along with the 2 main types of lung cancer, other tumors can also be found in the lungs. Some of these are not cancer and others are. Carcinoid tumors, for instance, are usually slow-growing and cured by surgery. For more information, see our document Lung Carcinoid Tumor.
Keep in mind that cancer that starts in other organs (such as the breast, pancreas, kidney, or skin) can sometimes spread (metastasize) to the lungs, but these are not lung cancers. For instance, cancer that starts in the breast and spreads to the lungs is still breast cancer, not lung cancer. Treatment for these cancers that have spread to the lungs depends on where the cancer started.

text: My 14 month old has been EBF and has refused all bottles and pacifiers, I am a SAHM and it really has never been a problem. However, he has also been a night nurser and at this point I have had my full of night nursing and using me as a pacifier. Recently he will not let me put him down after he falls asleep at the breast, he instantly flips over, stands up and screams. When I go in to rock or hold him he is irrate and often will not go back down - leaving me with a baby that is up till 1am or I just put him in bed with me and let him nurse to sleep and cosleep. It's been over a year and our night nursing has now turned into him switching sides all nigth long - seriously I think we do this dozens of times. I am at wits end. I have no time to myself at night and no time with my husband - we haven't even slept in the same bed for about a year now. I love breastfeeding but I need to drop this nursing and I don't know how. My first son we would give a bottle to in the night or he would let my husband rock him with a pacifier - this one wants no part of that. Any advice, I think our only choice is going to have to be crying it out which breaks my heart but I know after a few rough nights it will be okay and I feel like right now I am just making him a bad sleeper - he won't nap for me either unless in the car or being held. This has just really affected me mentally lately and feel like it causing me depression, I love my son but I have no life lately.

Luella Chavez D'Angelo with Jonathan Redman
Luella Chavez D'Angelo, Western Union's Senior Vice President for Global Corporate Responsibility and the President of the Western Union Foundation, talks with Interbrand's Jonathan Redman about Western Union's ambitious "Our World Our Family" program for helping immigrants and their families around the world.
Luella Chavez D'Angelo on Western Union's responsibility
We know we have a responsibility not only to watch after cash, because obviously we're the world's largest mover of money, but we're not moving that money just for small reasons. We're moving that money for very important, impactful reasons. To get food on the table to one's family, to buy those school supplies, to pay the bill that maybe is much harder for you and I to pay, and so that money has to be there and it has to be there quick and it has to be there safe and it has to be there very competitively priced, especially in the market we're talking about.
Luella Chavez D'Angelo on immigration
One of the things we had to do was be stern and be deliberate and be intentional. So once we decided that this was the stand we were taking and this was our responsibility as a company, we did not waver. And that's one thing I think corporations need to be ready to do is not waver.
Luella Chavez D'Angelo on aligning brand and purpose
I can't say that there's a company that really got it wrong, but I think there are companies that are getting it much, much more right. Here's the thing: You can still mount corporate philanthropy. You can even mount some cause marketing strategies, but what are they going to do for the personality of your brand, for the authenticity of your brand?
When asked, What's one thing you would change about the world if you could? Jonathan answered: "I would like to see alignment on the world's core issues—for there to be common and consistent recognition of crisis and action, regardless of political or economic interest, so that more purposeful and positive outcomes can be achieved." email@example.com

PARKIN, AR (KAIT) – A 3.9 magnitude earthquake shook eastern Arkansas Monday morning according to the USGS The quake was centered just southwest of Parkin in Cross County and happened around 7:39 a.m. local time.
The Cross County Sheriff's Department, Wynne Police Department, and the Wynne Mayor's Office have said that the earthquake has not caused any damages that they have been made aware of, but the earthquake did set off some alarms.
The earthquake happened near the New Madrid Seismic Zone that stretches from Arkansas to Illinois along the Mississippi River valley.
Region 8 News is still receiving information on this earthquake. Keep checking www.kait8.com and region8togo.com for updates.

Plot Bode frequency response with additional plot customization options
h = bodeplot(sys)
bodeplot(..., plotoptions)
h = bodeplot(sys) plot the Bode magnitude and phase of the dynamic system model sys and returns the plot handle h to the plot. You can use this handle to customize the plot with the getoptions and setoptions commands.
bodeplot(sys) draws the Bode plot of the model sys. The frequency range and number of points are chosen automatically.
bodeplot(sys1,sys2,...) graphs the Bode response of multiple models sys1,sys2,... on a single plot. You can specify a color, line style, and marker for each model, as in
bodeplot(AX,...) plots into the axes with handle AX.
bodeplot(..., plotoptions) plots the Bode response with the options specified in plotoptions. Type
help bodeoptions
for a list of available plot options. See Example 2 for an example of phase matching using the PhaseMatchingFreq and PhaseMatchingValue options.
bodeplot(sys,w) draws the Bode plot for frequencies specified by w. When w = {wmin,wmax}, the Bode plot is drawn for frequencies between wmin and wmax (in rad/TimeUnit, where TimeUnit is the time units of the input dynamic system, specified in the TimeUnit property of sys.). When w is a user-supplied vector w of frequencies, in rad/TimeUnit, the Bode response is drawn for the specified frequencies.
See logspace to generate logarithmically spaced frequency vectors.
Use the plot handle to change options in a Bode plot.
sys = rss(5); h = bodeplot(sys); % Change units to Hz and make phase plot invisible setoptions(h,'FreqUnits','Hz','PhaseVisible','off');
The properties PhaseMatchingFreq and PhaseMatchingValue are parameters you can use to specify the phase at a specified frequency. For example, enter the following commands.
sys = tf(1,[1 1]); h = bodeplot(sys) % This displays a Bode plot.
Use this code to match a phase of 750 degrees to 1 rad/s.
p = getoptions(h); p.PhaseMatching = 'on'; p.PhaseMatchingFreq = 1; p.PhaseMatchingValue = 750; % Set the phase to 750 degrees at 1 % rad/s. setoptions(h,p); % Update the Bode plot.
The first bode plot has a phase of -45 degrees at a frequency of 1 rad/s. Setting the phase matching options so that at 1 rad/s the phase is near 750 degrees yields the second Bode plot. Note that, however, the phase can only be -45 + N*360, where N is an integer, and so the plot is set to the nearest allowable phase, namely 675 degrees (or 2*360 - 45 = 675).
Compare the frequency responses of identified state-space models of order 2 and 6 along with their 2 std confidence regions.
load iddata1 sys1 = n4sid(z1, 2) % discrete-time IDSS model of order 2 sys2 = n4sid(z1, 6) % discrete-time IDSS model of order 6
Both models produce about 76% fit to data. However, sys2 shows higher uncertainty in its frequency response, especially close to Nyquist frequency as shown by the plot:
w = linspace(8,10*pi,256); h = bodeplot(sys1,sys2,w); setoptions(h, 'PhaseMatching', 'on', 'ConfidenceRegionNumberSD', 2);
Use the context menu by right-clicking Characteristics > Confidence Region to turn on the confidence region characteristic.
Compare the frequency response of a parametric model, identified from input/output data, to a nonparametric model identified using the same data.
Identify parametric and non-parametric models based on data.
load iddata2 z2; w = linspace(0,10*pi,128); sys_np = spa(z2,[],w); sys_p = tfest(z2,2);
spa and tfest require System Identification Toolbox™ software. sys_np is a non-parametric identified model. sys_p is a parametric identified model.
Create a Bode plot that includes both systems.
opt = bodeoptions; opt.PhaseMatching = 'on'; bodeplot(sys_np,sys_p,w, opt);
You can change the properties of your plot, for example the units. For information on the ways to change properties of your plots, see Ways to Customize Plots.

IBM changes 401k benefits
Next year IBM will pay its 401k match in one year-end lump sum. Will other companies follow?
This post comes from Helaine Olen at partner site Forbes.
When it comes to pensions and 401k plans, IBM has long been a trendsetter. That's a worrisome fact in view of the company's recent controversial change to its employee retirement plan.
As of Jan. 1, IBM will no longer give employees their 401k match with each pay cycle. Instead, the technology behemoth will make one large lump-sum payment to employee accounts on Dec. 31 of each year.
What's the motivation? Most independent observers say we should follow the money -- IBM's money, that is.
According to The Wall Street Journal, IBM paid out $875 million in employee 401k contributions in 2011, a number that will likely decrease as a result of the planned change in 2013.
First, any employee who leaves IBM's employment prior to Dec. 15 for any reason other than formal retirement will not receive any company match to his or her own 401k contributions for the entire year. Nada. If IBM executives fired someone on Dec. 14, the company would not have to pay out.
Second, all employees lose an entire year of the IBM match working for them in the investment sense. To be fair, that could be considered a lucky break if the year is 2008, when the S&P 500 fell by 37%. But in 2012, the advantage would go to IBM. As of today, the S&P 500 is up by 12.6% for the year.
All in all, this points to one of the main problems in the United States' private retirement planning system: Companies can change the structure of their plans with little or no notice, throwing years of employee financial planning for their golden years into chaos.
IBM is as good a place to see this in action as any.
In 1999, IBM jettisoned its traditional pension plan in favor of a cash balance plan. Pension amounts were frozen in place, with all future benefits coming in the form of a cash credit. Many employees -- especially older workers who had been with IBM for more than a decade -- lost tens of thousands of dollars in future retirement benefits in the switch.
Anger, recriminations, charges of age discrimination and lawsuits resulted -- an ongoing legal and public relations mess that was not fully resolved until 2007, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in IBM's favor. But by then, IBM was already making other changes to its retirement benefits package. In the cash balance plan, IBM was still responsible for investment risk. That would soon end.
Beginning in 2005, the company ceased offering new employees the cash balance plan at all, instead granting them access to a 401k plan. Then in 2008, IBM ceased offering the cash balance plan to all employees, freezing those plans as well. All future contributions would come in the form of the 401k.
While concerned about how the most recent 401k payment scheme will impact IBM employees, retirement activists and benefit plan consultants are equally concerned that other companies will make similar changes to their retirement plans. Given how far behind most Americans are in saving for retirement, any change that would add more uncertainty to the process, or cause them to lose even a few dollars in future savings, is not a good thing.

Enjoy your day off next Monday. That's if you live in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Prince Edward Island or Manitoba. If you live in the other five provinces or three territories – or are a federal civil servant – than put your nose to the grindstone to start another workweek.
When it comes to having a mid-winter holiday in February, something long argued for by those who observed when it comes to the cold and daylight-deficient Canadian winter, it's a long time between New Years Day on Jan. 1 and Good Friday in late March or April, it depends on where you live whether that argument has prevailed.
Employers – surprise – have never been as fond of the idea of what they sometimes call "yet another paid holiday" than their employees.
In Alberta, Saskatchewan and Ontario, Monday, Feb. 20 is Family Day. In Prince Edward Island it is Islander Day and here in Manitoba, since 2008, Louis Riel Day.
But don't for a minute think it is only the third Monday in February holiday that divides Canadians between carefree holidayers and working proles. The truth is we're a patchwork quilt of laws, custom and historical past practices from sea-to-sea-to-sea when it comes to provincial and national paid statutory holidays and non-holidays. Listing all the variations, never mind the rationale, would be better served by a flow chart than an editorial, but we'll include a few examples.
The next national statutory holiday is Good Friday April 6. More or less. It is in nine provinces and three territories. In Québec, the bastion of Roman Catholicism in Canada until 1966 and the Quiet Revolution, it now falls under the category of "optional" holiday. That's because in Québec there's a bit of a wrinkle where either Good Friday or Easter Monday must be given as a paid statutory holiday, however, most employers, truth be told, give both days. But Easter Monday can be given in lieu of Good Friday in Québec.
Statutory holidays are New Year's Day, Canada Day, Labour Day and Christmas Day – these days are celebrated nationwide and are paid days off for employees. Federally regulated employees also get Easter Monday (see, missing that February holiday wasn't so bad, really), Victoria Day, Thanksgiving and Boxing Day off and it is common practice, however not required, for non-federal employees to get these holidays off as well. Confused yet?
And speaking of "optional" holidays, how about maybe hoisting a pint to St. Paddy all you expatriates from The Rock here in Thompson? In Newfoundland and Labrador, St. Patrick's Day, Saturday, March 17 is not a public statutory holiday, under the Shop Closing Act, but it is one of the "traditional" holidays where stores are not required to close, but "many offices do close on the closest Monday to the actual date in celebration of the holiday," says the provincial government. A grand thing, that. Unless you're working retail. Newfoundland and Labrador are ecumenical too, when it comes to "traditional" holidays. As well as St. Patrick's Day, you can add St. George's Day April 23 and Orangemen's Day July 12 to that list.
In 2007, the NDP provincial government invited Manitoba schoolchildren to name the province's newest statutory holiday and 114 schools responded with suggestions. A dozen suggested Louis Riel Day or some close variation. Other suggestions included Neil Young Day, Family Get Together Day, February Fun Day, (The) Polar Pause, Duff Roblin Day (Duff's Day), Our Parents Need a Break Day and Magical Manitoba Monday.
The first Louis Riel Day in Manitoba was celebrated Monday, Feb. 18, 2008. Riel, hero and martyr to the Métis of Manitoba, as the leader hanged for high treason on Nov. 16, 1885 at Regina, was the driving force behind Manitoba becoming Canada's fifth province and is thought of by many as the "Father of Manitoba."
Riel was born at Red River Settlement on Oct. 22, 1844 and educated at St Boniface. A Roman Catholic, he studied for the priesthood at the Collčge de Montréal. In 1865 he studied law with Rodolphe Laflamme, and he is believed to have worked briefly in Chicago and Saint Paul before returning to St Boniface in 1868.
While space hardly permits for re-telling the entire history of the Red River Rebellion, or Red River Resistance, as it is also known, here or the North-West Rebellion in Saskatchewan 15 years later, the abridged version is that early in 1885, while living in present day Saskatchewan, Riel seized the parish church at Batoche, armed his men, and formed a provisional government and demanded the surrender of Fort Carlton. The North-West Rebellion lasted from March 26 to May 12 before Riel surrendered at the Battle of Batoche and on July 6, 1885, he was charged with high treason.
Riel was convicted, and the federal cabinet, with Sir John A. Macdonald as Conservative prime minister, to appease Ontario Protestants largely, declined to commute the death sentence imposed by Lt.-Col. Hugh Richardson, a stipendiary magistrate of the Saskatchewan District of the North-West Territories. Riel's body was sent to St Boniface and interred in the cemetery in front of the cathedral.

It's not that bad, it used at least JSF 2.0 ;) I do wonder why the author choose to duplicate the name of a managed bean every time. e.g. ManagedBean(name = "navigationController", eager = true) @RequestScoped public class NavigationController Why specify that the name is "navigationController" twice? The name attribute is only for when you don't want the simple class name (with the first letter de-capitalized). The eager attribute doesn't make much sense either for the request scope.

George Osborne presented his Budget on Wednesday 20 March 2013.
In his opening statement he set the scene for some of the new measures announced, stating 'this is a Budget for people who aspire to work hard and get on'.
Towards the end of last year the Government issued the majority of the clauses, in draft, of Finance Bill 2013 together with updates on consultations. The publication of the draft Finance Bill clauses is now an established way in which tax policy is developed, communicated and legislated.
The Budget updates some of these previous announcements and also proposes further measures. Some of these changes apply from April 2013 and some take effect at a later date, so the timing needs to be carefully considered.
Our summary focuses on the issues likely to affect you, your family and your business. To help you decipher what was said we have included our own comments. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact us for advice.
Main Budget tax proposals
- Date set for increase in the personal allowance to £10,000.
- New scheme for tax free childcare.
- Further reduction in the main rate of corporation tax to 20% from 1 April 2015.
- Employee-shareholder contracts will be exempt from income tax and NIC for the first £2,000 of shares received.
- The introduction of an allowance of £2,000 per year for all businesses and charities to be offset against their employer Class 1 NIC liability from April 2014.
- A capital gains tax re-investment relief for gains made in the tax year 2013/14 where the gain is invested in Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme shares.
Significant non-tax measures have been announced to tackle long-term problems in the housing market and are covered in the Other Matters section of this summary.
Previous announcements
Some of the changes detailed in this summary have been the subject of earlier announcements. Here is a reminder of some of the more important ones:
- personal allowance substantially increased for 2013/14
- restrictions in the higher age related personal allowances and their availability
- an increase in the Annual Investment Allowance limit from £25,000 to £250,000
- introduction of a cash basis for reporting profit for the smaller unincorporated business.

When designers talk about older homes, the word "character" is almost always used. What they are often referring to are original elements such as leaded or stained glass windows, hardwood floors, and decorative moldings, tile, or trim. But this term can also be used to describe quirky spaces that reflect earlier lifestyles and architectural trends that can pose challenges to the modern inhabitant.
My new apartment occupies the former attic of a period home. It lacks the gorgeous wood carving and mantles of the lower units but the living room and bedroom boast rich, dark, hardwood floors. And, because it is the attic, almost every wall slopes inward which is tricky for both furniture placement and palette choices.
(Photo: Homedit)
The last tenants ignored the cardinal rule of painting sloping ceilings (keep it light and bright) and painted a horrendous faux-denim finish in both rooms, making the place look downright dreary. Many people go for white with pops of color, but pale hues work well too. Painting the entire space the same color helps to minimize the angular walls.
(Photo: Gypsy Mind)
Another way to do this, for the truly brave, is to wallpaper from floor to ceiling in a print. With this technique the angles almost completely disappear. You would have to pick a pattern you really love though because the effect is a little overwhelming!
(Photo: Casa Sugar)
Sloping ceilings also present challenges in furniture placement. Everything must be far enough away from the walls so that a normal-sized person can get up from the chair/couch/bed without hitting his or her head. Smaller pieces work especially well in attics and help to balance the space.
(Photo: House to Home)
What to do with the areas where regular furniture won't fit? Think custom shelving, which is especially helpful in repurposed attics that don't have closets.
(Photo: Hemidemisemiquaver)
Of course Greentea Design's step chests would also an excellent choice to provide much-needed storage in the tight corners. Using furniture that mimics the shape of the walls helps to make the room look larger.
(Photo: Greentea Design)
I was a little worried that I wasn't going be able to hang my art collection but Miya at Design Indulgences proves that you don't have to save your prints for straight walls, though I do wish she had included hanging instructions.
(Photo: Design Indulgences)
If you have an unused attic, you might want to consider expanding your living space. While it can prove challenging, I guarantee you that visitors will always comment on the room's character.

A teen is arrested and accused of tossing concrete onto a car from a south Tulsa bridge.
Officers told KTUL.com a 15-year-old and two other boys were on the Sheridan Road bridge over the Creek Turnpike around 11:30pm Monday.
The 15-year-old confessed to lobbing a softball-sized chunk of concrete onto a passing car below. It smashed the windshield, sending glass shards into the driver's face.
Police said the driver wasn't seriously injured, but was cut by the glass. He doubled back to Sheridan from the turnpike and found the three boys still throwing things off the bridge.
He confronted them and they scattered. The Tulsa Police helicopter found them hiding in a backyard nearby. Officers only arrested the boy who confessed, police said.
The teen could face charges including assault with a deadly weapon. Depending on the district attorney's opinion, the charge could escalate to a felony.

text: 1 note Posted 12, March, 2014 big blue world on Flickr.IIRC, this is looking towards Mt. Tara from across Omura Bay in Kyushu. Shot with a Canon 550D. While I'm happily equipped with internet here in my new Korean apartment I've been too busy with the new job, as well as dealing with the jet lag, to post much up. There's also the fact that I haven't been in Gunsan long enough to get the lay of the land as far as interesting (to me) photography goes. There does seem to be the same problem I had in Miyakonojo: All cars and no feet. That is, everyone is driving and no one is walking about who isn't a minor. The area I'm in is a new area and I'm a bit of a distance from the traditional gathering areas of the city so that may account for it. I'll try and find out this weekend. Assuming the job doesn't wipe me out in the first week. #photographers on tumblr #original photographer #photography #Japan #landscape #kyushu #mt.tara #volcano #monochrome #digital #Canon 550d #2ti #Kiss X4 #nagasaki #sea

Stella is a fine example of a European Continental lager, (as opposed to a UK lager like Carling). It's consistent. Tasty enough. Put it in the same class as Molson Canadian. Foster's. Budweiser. All good beers but not especially interesting or rewarding. Yawn.

JUPITER, Fla. -- The St. Louis Cardinals put third baseman David Freese on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday because of a lower back strain, and hoped he would heal in time for the home opener April 8 against Cincinnati.
Freese joined St. Louis closer Jason Motte on the DL. The Cardinals earlier this spring lost shortstop Rafael Furcal for the year with an elbow injury and pitcher Chris Carpenter with a potential career-ending nerve injury.
Utilityman Matt Carpenter is expected to start the season at third in place of Freese, the 2011 World Series and NL championship series MVP. Freese, who will be 30 next month, hit .293 with career best of 20 homers, 79 RBIs and 144 games last season.
Carpenter played at five positions last year and added second base this spring. He batted .294 with six homers and 46 RBIs in 296 at-bats last year. Carpenter, 27, has 26 career starts in two seasons at third.
Infielder Ryan Jackson was recalled from Triple-A Memphis. Left-hander Sam Freeman was optioned to Triple-A.
In 12 spring training games, Freese was batting .267 with two home runs and five RBIs. The move was retroactive to Saturday
Jackson was optioned to the minors on March 17 after appearing in 17 spring training games. Freeman made two exhibition appearances.

'The Butterfly Ate The Pearl' (Grass Girl Music 2013) is the fourth long player by English singer-songwriter and composer Andria Degens, better known by her stage and recording name Pantaleimon.

Written and recorded during 2011/12 in her home studio, and co-produced with Hugo Race, 'The Butterfly Ate The Pearl' is a more psychedelic offering and a real progression of sound and without doubt her most accomplished release to date.

Selling us short: How Social Security privatization will affect lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans
Report Type:
August 08, 2005
In a society rife with anti-LGBT discrimination, Social Security is a crucial and stable form of support. Here's why:
Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) workers often:
- Do not have full legal recognition and support for their families;
- Can still be legally fired because of whom they love;
- Earn less, on average, than their heterosexual counterparts.
LGBT elders are more likely to:
- Find federal programs inaccessible, ineffective or irrelevant because of homophobia and transphobia;
- Receive substandard care, be denied care, or be disparaged by their physicians and social workers because of their sexual orientation;
- Risk automatic disclosure of their birth gender under the Real ID Act, which threatens transgender elders with discriminatory or inappropriate treatment.
Privatization would be disproportionately devastating to LGBT Americans.

There's no diet for ulcerative colitis. What you eat doesn't cause or cure UC. But eating a diet rich in nutrients may help you spend more time in remission and live a healthier life.
Malnutrition caused by ulcerative colitis is rare because vitamins, minerals, and proteins are absorbed in the small intestine, which isn't affected by UC. Still, eating a well-balanced diet with UC can be tricky.
Many people with UC find certain foods don't agree with them. And loss of appetite or fear of eating can cause you to lose weight or miss out on nutrients.
The best time to think about nutrition is when you're not having a flare.
The Best Diet for Ulcerative Colitis?
Most experts say that people with UC should just try to eat a well-balanced diet whenever possible. This should include a variety of foods:
- Lean meat, fish, and poultry
- Low-fat dairy products
- Bread, cereal, and whole grains
- Fruits and vegetables
- Healthy fats such as vegetable oils
Keep a food diary to help you figure out which foods cause problems for you and whether or not you're getting enough nutrients.
If you're losing weight because of your ulcerative colitis, try eating five or six small meals and snacks during the day instead of two or three large meals.
When you have chronic diarrhea, drink plenty of water or other fluids to stay hydrated.
A dietitian can come up with a diet that meets your calorie and nutrient needs. Before you take any dietary supplements, talk to your doctor or dietician.
Avoid High-Fiber Foods?
You don't necessarily have to say good-bye to foods such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables because you have UC. Besides its nutritional benefits, fiber soaks up excess water and can firm stools.
Even if a high-fiber food seems to aggravate your UC symptoms during a flare-up, it may not when the flare passes. The only way to know if a particular food is a problem for you is to remove it from your diet and then gradually start eating it again.
Aim for 20 to 30 grams of fiber a day. Steaming, baking, or stewing fruits and vegetables before eating them may be easier on your digestive tract than eating them raw.
If your doctor has recommended a low-fiber diet, you may not be getting enough nutrients common in high-fiber foods. Ask your doctor or dietitian if you should take a supplement.
Fish and Flaxseed Oils
Fish oil -- found in salmon, mackerel, sardines, herring, and black cod, as well supplements -- acts as an anti-inflammatory. Though early studies are mixed, fish and flaxseed oils may help fight colon inflammation.
Probiotic Supplements
Probiotics are helpful bacteria that help maintain the natural balance of organisms found in your intestines. You can find them in yogurt and supplements. Some researchers, as well as people with inflammatory bowel disease, think probiotics help ease symptoms.
But only certain probiotics will treat ulcerative colitis. In European studies, the probiotic E. coli Nissle helped prevent UC flares, but it isn't available in the U.S. Other studies are testing different probiotics to help control UC. If you and your doctor decide to try probiotics, you'll need to keep taking enough of the right kind for it to work.

Inside Media: John Harwood
Listen to Audio:
Watch video:
- John Harwood, Chief Washington Correspondent, CNBC, summarizes the 2008 historic presidential campaign.
- John Harwood, Chief Washington Correspondent, CNBC, describes the tension between TV and newspaper reporters.
- John Harwood, Chief Washington Correspondent, CNBC, tracks McCain's recent campaign tactics.
Guest: John Harwood
New York Times reporter and CNBC Washington bureau chief John Harwood remembers what his father once told him about covering presidential campaigns.
"Politics was always his first love," Harwood said about his father, Richard, a former Washington Post reporter who died in 2001. "And what he told me was, 'You're likely to have in your career one campaign that stands out over the rest.'"
For the junior Harwood, the 2008 race between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. John McCain is that campaign.
"This has been the most exciting campaign of my career," Harwood said.
Harwood cited the roller-coaster Democratic primary between the history-making candidacies of Obama and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, followed by the nomination of Gov. Sarah Palin as the first female vice presidential candidate in the Republican Party.
Add to that the drama of an economic crisis that threatens to bring the U.S. economy to a halt, and you've got one memorable campaign season.
"So many things are rocking and rolling at one time, I've never experienced anything like it," Harwood said. "Most campaigns by comparison are sleepy. They're not really sleepy, but it feels that way in comparison with what's happening right now."
Harwood classified McCain's campaign as "improvisational," citing McCain's decision to suspend the campaign on September 24 to deal with the economic crisis.
"It's simply a reflection of John McCain the politician," Harwood said. "That's one of the things that make John McCain attractive. …But nevertheless, that can create an incoherent look to your campaign."
As for Obama, Harwood said he has been able to successfully "ride a wave" in this election because of the country's sentiment of wanting change and associating Republicans with President Bush, whose approval ratings have reached historically low levels.

Midwest #18: Lacey's Comfortingly Eclectic
Name: Lacey
Location: Ann Arbor, MI
Size: 545 sf
Rent/Own: Rent
What is the advantage of SMALL? Small not only provides affordability for me, but a coziness that really makes it seem like home. Plus I was never a fan of chores--the smaller the place the fewer housekeeping obligations.
What's your favorite resource for your home?
The post college years have been monetarily tough...so I'm a fan of the thrift store and a can of paint. With the exception of my "desk" all the furniture is either a hand-me-down or thrifted treasure.
What is your one favorite element in your small, cool home?
I fell in love with the curtain dividing my bedroom the minute I hung it. In all the apartments I've lived, I've never had a closet in my bedroom. The curtain helps hide all the clothes and clutter when people either enter my room or see it from the living room.
56 Comments
Love the use of color on the pegboard, love the squirells and love the alexander henry print on the pillow (i just had a dress done in that)
...What is the light up thing on the wall near your MCM hutch?
This is a well-done apartment. Great kitchen organization.
I love it! It's a home that looks like someone actually lives in; comfortably and with personal style. Yeah for the unstaged, non-sterile look. The colors are warm and welcoming and there's a ton of character.
i adore your kitchen. and LOVE that it includes organized CANDY!!!
my god you eat a lot of cereal. lovely apartment.
Wow, you are very organized..looks great. Love all the colors, especially on the pegboard...may have to steal that idea!
i too noticed all that special K!
great color in the kitchen.
great lived-in vibe.
could use a little editing & decluttering in the main rooms
I LOVE your apartment!! Very cozy AND cute!
I love that kitchen artwork!
Where is it from? :)
This place is super cool. All of the decorating choices look deliberate and coherent and the space is well-managed. There's no clutter and an excellent sense of scale and colour. Not chockablock with spendy MCM icons and super-cool stuff like some entries, but very well curated and executed IMO.
It's all very organized, but too much stuff!!!
i think it looks so great overall. it's very well put together.
And I LOVE your kitchen art.........PLEASE tell where you got them :-)
that pegboard with the yellow accents is absolutely stunning! though i must suggest that you store your spices elsewhere, lest they be ruined by the heat of your stove.
this is a lovely little apartment.
well done!
Love, love, love.
I tend to like just a bit of organized clutter-- makes the space feel homey and less like something out of a home design manual.
I second ilovepoodle...those kitchen prints are fabulous! Who did them and where can something similar be found?!
I like it, but you seem to have an awful lot of mugs! You've done a great job--your kitchen is great!
Hello, fellow Ann Arborite! (OK, so technically I live in Ypsi, but whatever).
The colors in your apartment are amazing; I wish I could paint in mine. Also, where the hell did you find all your cool stuff? I don't what thrift stores you go to, but I've found the pickings in Ann Arbor's to be shockingly slim.
Well done, and good luck!
I love your kitchen and everything in it!...pegboard, artwork, etc. And I have those same multi colored stacking mugs : )
i want this to be a finalist so i can see more pics of the place...
love. love. a little clutter-y in the living space, but I love the kitchen! what the heck is the decorative ledge/chair thingy that the vase is sitting on in picture 5?
I have that SAME squirrel nut dish!
i'm not sure how much people are responding to comments about their own apartment...but...
regarding the art in the kitchen. they're actually teatowls i framed. you can find them at http://threepotatofourshop.com/index.php?cPath=1_8&osCsid=580d63c09111b567e2992f842eef9c69
to my fellow ann arborite...don't give up. the white "bar" cabinet in the living room came from the re-used recycle center in ann arbor. granted it was pretty gross when i got it. but four coats of white paint and voila. also the lamp above my desk came from kiwanis. keep hunting it's out there!
the "decorative ledge/chair thingy" in picture 5 is just that...a decorative thingy. my apartment is just a portion of an older home. i think my bedroom use to be the parlor and the decorative thingy frames a pocket door that's been nailed shut by the landlord. it's a little strange i know.
I like the squirrel and acorn containers. What are those? Sugar bowls?
Nice! I really appreciate seeing apartments that have real traces of human life!
Your place is fun, homey, and nicely put together. Thanks for sharing. I will be buying those tea towels for sure!!
you must have some photographer friends because the art in your apartment is fabulous.
Much nicer than any apartment I ever lived in in Ann Arbor!
I gave your apartment a Super Cool because it is. However, as good as your over-stove arrangement looks, I don't think it is safe to be reaching over the stove for all those items; it would be much safer to move them to the side of the stove. And of course, spices should definitely be moved.
Someone needs to get this person a shelf for her spices...
...but it's a seriously cute place - esp loving the framed vintage ads.
oh my god...I have been wanting those tea towels from three potato four, and seeing them framed like that in your adorable kitchen just clinched it for me. What a fun apartment - eclectic indeed. It's a wonderfully personal space, perhaps in need of a little editing as others have said. But in this case the clutter is charming.
my husband has tried to persuade me throw out the same squirrel container for the last 3 moves -- so glad i don't listen to him :)
very unique! love it and i hear you on the cleaning duties :)
when can i come and hang out here?
girl, you got a lotta cereal!
You have a lot of stuff in general (for the space, of course), but somehow keep it from feeling cluttered. Bravo!
very nice, i'd like to see more of the apartment
i wish i could take the lease over.
It's either amazing luck or pure genius to make that tomato-soup red formica table and ditto-color settee happen together. And the walls in that room are great.
I too like someone mentioned previously like a little bit of "organized clutter" and I don't think you need to edit at all. love it and voted super cool. Beautiful.
The shelving unit in the kitchen with the mugs hanging from it, was that there when you arrived, or did you purchase it? Would love to incorporate it into my own small kitchen.
Also, if anyone is interested in the Eep birds tea towel (from The Potato Four, but not one of the tea towels used here), it can be found from the original artist at: http://www.skinnylaminx.etsy.com for slightly cheaper (but not sure if it actually is once you include the shipping). She's one of my favorite etsy sellers.
Beautiful, great example of personal style and organization in a small space
Love the colors and how the spaces were divided for maximum use!
That is a LOT of cereal.
The spices, cereal and stuff on top of the fridge is throwing me off but it's a cute place.
FINALLY! Someone who eats as much cereal as I do!
who names these tours? "eclectic comfort", maybe?
WOW! I love the organized kitchen!!!
You have a great eye for color and design... your home looks so pulled together and welcoming. Very cool. I can only imagine what you'll be able to accomplish when you DO have financial resources because you've done such a great job without them. Well done! :)
Cute, small and vertical. I love how you use every bit of space for storage, etc. The Michigan blue on the walls is a nice touch considering you live in Ann Arbor!
love the colors it's definitly you
i think it's just the right amount of cereal.
great look...well put together.
Love the gummy bears. I could use a few right now.
Your space looks lived in and well thought out. It's obvious you are dealing with a small space, and you've pulled it off well. It has character and isn't a hospital room. Your apartment is much more than a pretty "face" and actually deals with small space coping mechanisms. The clutter is balanced and indicative of your space contraints. I don't find it distracting one bit... some people need a bit of clutter (I am guilty of that).
The acorns and squirrels are so you and a great touch to add a bit of home to such a small space. YOU have definitely defeated the "blue box" institutional look that some would go for. Storage seems to be handled creatively from the stacked cups next to the coffee pot to the myriad of cereal, are you able to eat all of it before stale arrive?
I LOVE IT!! I usually don't like the throw-back 50s era stuff, but oh I saw the yellow diagram of cooking implements, with below it real cooking implements laid out similarly, and I fell in love. And I was so impressed, when you rent you never know what era your appliances will be from, and so by having a throwback feel to your kitchen goods, it makes your outdated appliances look super trendy, and like a deliberate design choice.
You're awesome. Let's be friends.
I also love the deep blue wall (what a pretty color!) with white cabinet. Aw heck, I like it all.
I'm dying to know where you got your artwork - the yellow prints hanging above the pegboard??!!
Can someone tell me the artist name or where I might locate something similiar??

Assist in or assist with
Which is correct? (Intentional use of telegraphic style) Assists attorney in drafting documentation. Assists attorney with drafting documentation.
Sort by
The first is correct. The second case would be correct if rearranged:
Assists attorney with documentation drafting.
My reasoning is that in the first case, the person assists the attorney in drafting the documentation. "The" is understood to have been excluded in what you refer to as telegraphic style, or "the" can be dispensed with on the grounds that "documentation" is a thing. It's a noun. So it's correct to say the person assists, assists who? the lawyer, in what activity? drafting, drafting what? documentation.
In the second case, the person assists the attorney. With what? Here is where it doesn't work. "With what?" has to be answered with an activity. Drafting, by itself, would be ok. But "drafting" could mean many things. So we modify the name of the activity to say "documention drafting."
I'm sure there could be a more technical explanation, but I am fairly confident that I am right.
2 votes • Permalink • Report Abuse
Both sentences are valid, but mean different things:
1. "in" - drafting means creating
2. "with" - drafting is a type of documentation, just as logging documentation or cooking documentation would be.
And 2 isn't well phrased even if that were the desired meaning. Which it presumably wasn't.
3 votes • Permalink • Report Abuse
I agree but would like to be more specific.
"assists in" is followed by a verb.
"assists with" is followed by a noun.
It just so happens that drafting can be a verb or a noun, so both sentences make sense if only slightly different in meaning.

Which sentence is the correct one :
- Assists with coordinating the credit control,
- Assisting with coordinating ...
Maybe you have better solution ?
1 vote • Permalink • Report Abuse
@Elena Dolnova - the grammatical functions are different:
Assists with ... is a verb and needs a subject - She assists / I assist with coordinating credit control (better without "the")
Assisting with ... is a Noun phrase - "My job involves assisting with the coordination of ... (it's better to avoid having two -ing forms together)
If it's for something like a CV, which you use would depend on the rest of the paragraph; you could use all verbs, or all gerunds (-ing forms) and nouns.
