WADL Reference
The basic outline format of an example WADL representation is shown below. A WADL representation first defines a <resources> element, which identifies the base path of all resources in the API. Then it defines one or more <resource> elements, each of which describes a resource in the API. Each <resource> element definition includes the methods, parameters, and associated documentation for the resource.
The following excerpt of an example WADL representation includes a single <resources> element, defining a single base path endpoint for the API. Next, a <resource> element is defined within the <resources> element. This <resource> element contains one or more <method> definitions that define the actions available for this API resource. In a typical WADL representation, multiple <resource> elements would follow, one for each resource in the API.
<application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:apigee="http://api.apigee.com/wadl/2010/07/" xmlns="http://wadl.dev.java.net/2009/02" xsi:schemaLocation="http://wadl.dev.java.net/2009/02 http://apigee.com/schemas/wadl-schema.xsd http://api.apigee.com/wadl/2010/07/ http://apigee.com/schemas/apigee-wadl-extensions.xsd"> <resources base="http://api.example.com/1"> <resource path="statuses/public_timeline.{format}"> <method> ... </method> </resource> </resources> </application>
WADL elements
The following sections provide reference information for each WADL element. The information includes:
- Whether the element is required or optional.
- How many instances of the element must or can be specified.
- The name and description of the element's attributes and child elements.
- An example of the element.
- A description of the element.
The <resources> element
Required. One or more <resources> elements are required for each WADL specification.
|Base path of the endpoint
Child elements
|Describes the API resource
<resources base="http://api.example.com/v1">
Each WADL specification contains at least one <resources> element. The <resources> element contains one attribute, base, that defines the domain and the base path of the endpoint. Each <resources> element usually contains multiple <resource> elements.
If an API has more than one endpoint, you need to include one <resources> element for each endpoint; within each <resources> element, you'll put the <resource> elements that fit under that base URL. For example, your API may have one endpoint at http://api.example.com/search/v1 and another at http:api.example.com/community/v1. The WADL representation for this API would include two <resources> elements, each with the corresponding base URL.
The <resource> element
Required. One or more <resource> elements are required in each <resources> element.
|Path to the resource
Child elements
|Specifies parameters used for requests to this resource
|Defines a method associated with this resource
|Specifies a choice of <param> elements
<resource path="statuses/public_timeline.{format}"> <param> ... </param> <param> ... </param> <method> ... </method> </resource>
Each resource in your API is described by a <resource> element in the WADL file. A <resource> element has a path attribute that specifies the path to that resource. The value of the path attribute can be static, or it can contain embedded template parameters (such as {format} in the example above).
The complete path name of the resource is generated by concatenating the value of the base attribute in the <resources> element and the value of the path attribute in the <resource> element. In addition, any template parameters, such as {format} in this example, are replaced with the values that are entered by the user in the Console (or their default value, if one is defined). In this example, the complete path name for this resource is:
Each <resource> element can contain zero or more optional <param> elements that define parameters. If included, these parameters are used by methods defined as part of this <resource> element. A <resource> element can also include optional <apigee:choice> elements, which define a set of parameter choices. (See The <apigee:choice> element for more information.)
Note: If a <resource> element contains <param> elements, they must appear in the WADL representation before the <method> element. Listing the <param> elements after the <method> element generates an error when uploading your WADL to Apigee. Alternatively, the <param> elements can be included in the <method> element declaration as part of a <request> element. In the former approach, all of the methods inherit the <param> elements. In contrast, if you include the <param> elements within the method, the parameter is limited to the scope of that method.
Each resource typically contains one <method> element. However, resources that share the same path but have multiple verbs can have multiple <method> elements in the WADL representation. For example, a single resource may have both a GET and a POST method. In this case, there could be a single <resource> definition that includes two <method> definitions, one for each verb.
The <param> element
Optional. Zero or more <param> elements can be included in a <resource> or <request> element.
|The parameter name
|Indicates whether the parameter is required (true) or optional (false). The default is false.
|The expected XML Schema data type of the parameter (for example, "xsd:string")
|The expected type of parameter (for example, "query" or "header")
|The default value for the parameter
Child elements
|A text description of the parameter
|The possible set of values for the parameter
<param name="count" required="false" type="xsd:string" default="5"> <doc>Specifies the number of records to retrieve. Must be less than or equal to 200.</doc> </param>
Each <resource> element can contain zero or more optional <param> elements that describe parameters used for requests to this resource. Parameters are grouped by type (query, template, headers) on the corresponding tabs in the Console, and are listed in the order they appear in the WADL file.
Note: <param> elements can also be included in a <request> element.
A <param> element contains the following attributes and child elements:
The name attribute specifies the parameter name. This value is displayed in the parameter list in the Console. All parameter names for a given method should be unique within the scope (for example, within that method).
The required attribute should be set to true if the parameter is required, and false if the parameter is optional. Required parameters are marked in the Console with a red asterisk. Default values can be specified using the default attribute.
For example, the parameter of name "type" in the following example is required, and has a default value of "text". Both the parameter itself and the Query tab are marked with a red asterisk, indicating that they are required.
Note: Currently, the Apigee Console allows a user to send a request without a required parameter, so that these requests can intentionally fail. This helps a user find out what errors result under certain conditions. However, the Console displays clearly what the user should do to correct the error.
The type attribute specifies the expected type of the parameter. Valid values are any of the predefined set of standard XML Schema data types. Example values include xsd:string, xsd:boolean, and xsd:integer.
The style attribute specifies the type of the parameter. Valid values include query, header and template.
Parameters are displayed under the corresponding tab in the Console UI, and are listed in the order they appear in the WADL.
The optional default attribute specifies a default value for this parameter. If a default value is included, it is displayed in the Console when a user selects this resource. If the parameter if required, the default value is automatically entered into the value field for this parameter on the Console.
If the parameter is optional, the default value is displayed as placeholder text in the Console and is followed by the text "(example)". If the user enters a value for an optional parameter, the grayed-out text is replaced with the value the user choose. The following example shows an optional parameter count with a default value of 200:
The <doc> element is optional, but recommended. This element contains plain text documentation that describes this parameter. This documentation is displayed in the Console, associated with the parameter name and value field. An optional apigee:url attribute contains a URL for additional documentation, and this appears as a link to more information in the Console.
Note: Only plain text is supported for <doc> elements.
For example, the following entry in a WADL file:
<param name="limit" type="xsd:positiveInteger" style="query" required="false" default="20"> <doc apigee:url="http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api/v2#blog-followers"> <![CDATA[ The number of results to return: 1-20, inclusive ]]> </doc> </param>
The following <doc> element:
<doc apigee:url="http://www.tumblr.com/docs/en/api/v2#hostname"></doc>
generates this default link to more information in the Console UI:
A <param> element can also contain <option> elements that enumerate the possible set of values for the parameter. All option values should be unique for a given parameter. For example, the following query-style parameter has several options defined:
<param name="object" type="xsd:string" style="query" required="false" default="post"> <option value="post"/> <option value="user"/> <option value="page"/> <option value="event"/> <option value="group"/> <option value="checkin"/> </param>
If the WADL representation contains options for a given parameter, those options are displayed in the Console as a drop-down menu. If the parameter is not required, the drop-down menu also includes the option (blank) for cases when the user wishes to omit the parameter. Options are listed in the menu in the order they appear in the WADL file. For example:
The <method> element
Required. One or more <method> elements are required in each <resource> element.
|The unique identifier for this method
|The type of HTTP method used (GET, POST, DELETE, or PUT)
|The display name for the method in the Apigee Console
Child elements
|Used to organize the methods in the Apigee Console.
|Specifies whether authentication is required.
|Specifies tooltip text to be displayed when the user mouses over the method in the Apigee Console. If specified, the <doc> element must appear before the <request> element.
|Specifies one or more <param> elements that are passed to the method. If the <doc> element is specified, then the <request> element must come after the <doc> element.
|Apigee does not support the <response> child element of the <method> element.
<method id="statusespublic_timeline" name="GET" apigee:displayName="PublicTimeline"> <apigee:tags> <apigee:tag primary="true">Timeline</apigee:tag>
</apigee:tags> <apigee:authentication required="false" /> </method>
The <method> element is associated with an individual method in the API, and is described by an id and name attribute. Each <method> element in a WADL representation must have a unique ID. The name attribute specifies the type of HTTP method used, either GET, POST, DELETE, or PUT.
Each <method> element also includes an optional display name, specified by the apigee:displayName attribute. The display name contains the text that is displayed in the method list in the Console. If no display name is specified, the <resource> element's path attribute is displayed in the Console as the name of the method.
Each method also includes the following Apigee extensions to the standard WADL: <apigee:tags> and <apigee:authentication>. These Apigee extensions are required for each method declaration. In addition, these extensions must be included in the WADL in this exact order: <apigee:tags> <apigee:authentication>.
Tags enable methods to be organized into groups. In the Console, methods are grouped within the tags you define, making them easier to navigate. As such, tags function as categories for methods. Tags are displayed within the Console in alphabetical order. The methods organized under a tag appear in the order in which they are defined in the WADL.
Note: If no tag element contains a primary attribute set to "true", then the method does not appear in the list of methods in the Console. Also, if more than one tag element contains a primary attribute set to "true", then only the last tag listed in the WADL file is used. Currently, only a single primary tag is supported.
The <tags> element is an Apigee extension to the WADL specification. The <tags> element contains information used to organize the list of methods in the Console. In the current release, each method must include a required <tags> element. Furthermore, each <tags> element must contain one <tag> element with the primary attribute set to "true". For example:
<apigee:tags> <apigee:tag primary="true">Timeline</apigee:tag> </apigee:tags>
In the Console, the primary tag is used as the category for the method. In this example, a method with the above <tag> element is displayed in the Console under the "Timeline" category:
The <apigee:authentication> element contains a single attribute, required, that is used to specify whether authentication is required for this method. For example:
<apigee:authentication required="false" />
If required attribute is "true", a lock symbol displays in the Console method list, indicating that invocations of this method are authenticated by the API provider. In the following example, the first method is declared in the WADL file as <apigee:authentication required="false"/>, and the second method is declared as <apigee:authentication required="true"/>.
Each <method> element can also contain optional <doc> and <request> child elements.
The <doc> element
The <doc> element in a <method> definition is optional, but recommended. If specified, the <doc> element must come before the <request> element. The contents of the <doc> element display as a popover tool tip in the method list. The optional apigee:url attribute contains a URL pointer to hosted documentation for this method. The URL displays as a link to more information in the Console.
For example, the following entry in WADL:
<doc apigee:url="http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/statuses/public_timeline"> Returns the 20 most recent statuses, including retweets if they exist, from non-protected users. </doc>
Generates a tool tip on mouse over in the Console UI:
The <request> element
One <request> element can optionally be included in a <method> element.
Child elements
|Optional elements that are passed to the method.
|Specifies the media type and payload passed in the body of the request
<request> <param name="message" required="false" type="xsd:string" style="query" default=""> <doc>Photo description</doc> </param> <representation mediaType="application/json"> <apigee:payload required="true"> <apigee:content> <doc apigee:url="http://api.mydomain.com/doc/resource/method"> Content description. </doc> <![CDATA[{ "type": "all_day", "timeZone": "-08:00", "timeZoneId": "America/Los_Angeles", ... }]]> </apigee:content> </apigee:payload> </representation> </request>
A <method> element can optionally contain one <request> element.
- One or more optional <param> elements that are passed to the method.
- One or more optional <representation> elements. (While you can specify more than one <representation> element, the Console only processes the first <representation> element defined in the WADL.)
The <representation> can take three forms:
- Body parameters: Name/value pairs sent as form-encoded parameters
- A payload: A structured payload formatted in XML, JSON, etc.
- An attachment: A MIME message that encodes an attached file
All three types in a single <representation> element constitute a multipart MIME request.
Body Parameter Representation
Body parameters of the <representation> element are displayed in the body tab of the Console and are passed as form-encoded parameters to the request.
<representation mediaType="application/x-www-
form-urlencoded"> <param name="param2" required="true" type="xsd:string" style="query" default="12345"> <doc> Parameter description. </doc> </param> </representation>
The Console does not consume the mediaType, but it is recommended for readability.
Payload Representation
The contents of the <payload> are displayed in the body tab of the Console. The payload is passed as the body of the request.
A <payload> element can, for example, be used to send a JSON payload as the body in the request. For example:
<request> <representation mediaType="application/json"> <apigee:payload required="true"> <doc apigee:url="http://api.mydomain.com/doc/resource/method"> Content description. </doc> <apigee:content> <![CDATA[{ "type": "all_day", "timeZone": "-08:00", "timeZoneId": "America/Los_Angeles", ... }]]> </apigee:content> </apigee:payload> </representation> </request>
Attachment Representation
The <attachment> element enables you to pre-fill information in the attchment UI. The contents of the <attachment> are passed as the body of the request. An <attachment> element can, for example, be used to submit an image file in the request.
Currently, the Console only supports a single attachment per request.
The name attribute, which is mandatory, determines the name populated in the Console as well as the MIME part name. Use the optional required attribute to indicate that an attachment is mandatory. The optional contentDisposition attribute sets the Content-Disposition header in the MIME request generated by the Console.
<request> <representation> <apigee:attachments> <apigee:attachment name="image" required="true" contentDisposition="form-data"> <doc>Attachment description.</doc> </apigee:attachment> </apigee:attachments> </representation> </request>
The <apigee:choice> element
Optional. Zero or more <apigee:choice> elements can be included in a <resource>element.
|Specifies the minimum number of parameter choices
|Specifies the maximum number of parameter choices
|Indicates whether the parameter choice is required (true) or optional (false). The default is false.
Child elements
|Specifies a parameter choice.
<apigee:choice countMin="1" countMax="1" required="true"> <param name="user_id_a" type="xsd:string" > <doc> The user_id of the user you are checking the relationship from. </doc> </param> <param name="screen_name_a" type="xsd:string" > <doc> The screen_name of the user you are checking the relationship from. </doc> </param> </apigee:choice>
The optional <apigee:choice> element can be used to specify a choice of <param> elements. This element can contain countMin and countMax attributes that specify the minimum and maximum number of choices, respectively, a user can select. The <apigee:choice> element can also contain a required attribute, that specifies whether a parameter choice is required.
The <apigee:choice> element is often used to present the user with a choice of two alternative identifiers. For example, some API methods require an identifier, such as either a user ID or screen name (but not both), to be included in a request.
Summary of Apigee WADL extensions
The following Apigee-specific extensions have been added to the base WADL representation to support display in the Apigee Console.
|Required; one in each <method> element. Specifies whether authentication is required for this method.
|Optional; can be included in a <resource> element. Specifies a choice of <param> elements for this <resource> element.
|Optional; <method> elements can contain zero or one. Specifies the method name to display in the Apigee Console.
|Optional; can be included in a <request> element. The contents of the <payload> element are sent in the body of the request.
|Required; one in each <apigee:tags> element. Used to specify the primary category for a method.The attribute primary="true" is currently required by the Console--meaning that the single tag identified as primary is used to define the category in which the method will be grouped.
|Required; one in each <method> element. Used to organize the list of methods in the Apigee Console
|Optional; <doc> elements can contain zero or one. Specifies a URL link to additional documentation.
|Optional; can be included in a <request> element. The contents of the <attachments> are sent in the body of the request.
One common error in creating a WADL is forgetting to escape the special ampersand character ( & ). This character cannot occur in its literal form in a WADL representation, except when it's used within a comment or in a CDATA section. If you need to include the & character anywhere else in the WADL file, you need to use the escape sequence &. For example, if you want your method to have the display name "Users & Apps," use the following syntax:
<method id="myMethod" name="GET" apigee:displayName="Users & Apps">
Other characters that have special meaning in the WADL similarly need to be escaped. For example, use < and >, respectively, for angle brackets (< and >).

shoot thru mesh
Does shoot thru mesh interfere with shot placement at all?

Personally, I would not trust shooting thru anything but air. I shoot a fixed blade broadhead, and have never tested them thru the mesh. They may fly fine, but, I have not tested it.
I would suggest setting up your blind and testing a few shots, with your practice broadheads, shooting thru the mesh before you go afield.
A good friend missed 2 turkeys last season because he was shooting mechanical broadheads thru the mesh. They opened upon impacting the mesh, and flew well off the birds.
Test it. And, let us know.Take a kid with you. Show them the Great Outdoors. Pass it on.

I have a double bull 360 matrix blind, I have shot three turkeys out of it, two through the mesh, I hit right where I aimed on both birds. I did however shoot multiple practice shots through it first. You have to make sure the mesh is fairly tight, you should also try to shoot straight through it, try to avoid angles, and you should also use fixed blade heads, I did try a mechanical and it also opened early but double says not to shoot mechanicals in their video, now I know why, but I have had nothing but good luck with the fixed blades.
Gonna do it....
I will be with a shooting partner on thursday in a good spot.We will be after both deer and turkey,I am using a fixed if I shoot through the mesh.
We might have to give the guiateen a whirl,obviously not shooting through the mesh.....
If you do shoot through the mesh I was told the tighter it is the better.Some of these guys are shooting out to 35 yards in there videos with no problems.I have seen a few misses,as well,but.
I would say that for turkey hunting....this is a must have.I have a hard time getting them from the stand with a bow.If they had a nose,you would probably never shoot one,especially in the fall.
I am looking for the ten yarder if it presents itself.
I have taken a nice buck on the ground before,I like to say it is a higher percentage rate to do some vitals in,plus it simply put is a awesome exciting hunting experience because your at eye level.I have been able to almost pluck eyebrows it seems before off curious does.
It almost makes you bust out in laughter at times because of the things that can happen and can be a real lot of fun hunting.

same problem different program.
I use 4965 card, so i load the drivers first.
then i start wesside and after finding a wireless on a certain channel it blocks all keyboard traffic, program also stops executing.
Mouse is still usable and all other functionality is also available.
I know this app is still in alpha dev, though i guess it rather has something to do with the wifi drivers.

I have this problem too, i can't connect to any network on Wifi on my notebook. always says. Obtaining ip adress. then gives error.!!!
Hi I am trying to get onto wep network, I got the wep key phrase but I am getting error : unable to obtain Ip address. I have no clue where to start so if any of you have ran into this problem lets get some ideas going. Something also that went haywire was Another wpa 2 network I usually use was saying bad passphrase but it was the right one, so i ended up reinstalling backtrack 5 64 bit and then it worked again. I do not know why, this must be some sort of bug. Anyways let me know thank you.
I have this problem too, i can't connect to any network on Wifi on my notebook. always says. Obtaining ip adress. then gives error.!!!
Well it is backtrack that is the problem because I am able to connect on windows. I really like backtrack so I am going to need an understanding to why this happens and how to fix it. Do you use backtrack 5 64 bit as well? Either way I am happy because I made my first network intrusion now I will be able to understand alittle bit more about network security.
i had this issue too.
i was connecting to my WPA2 network without any errors, in the last days, i chaged my internet connection (well, i had to)
after a lot of try, i figured out that we need to set an ip and dns before connect to the network.
so i reconfigured my connection like follows;
ip: 192.168.1.1
subnet: 255.255.255.1
router/gateway: 192.168.1.1
and i could connect
i hope it helps.

Shizen Design Bookmaking Kit contains 72 pages of paper, plus the spine and cover boards needed to make a stylish book. Acid-free and internally sized, the textured white paper is handmade in India with beautiful, feathery deckle edges. The kit contains directions for creating a beautiful handmade book that you can personalize by choosing a decorative paper, or even decorating your own paper with watercolors, other paints or mixed media! You now have a beautiful, handmade book ready for sketching, journaling, scrap-booking, photo album for yourself or to give as a gift!
Tips for making your personalized Shizen Book from the Shizen Bookmaking Kit:
- Measure the front & back cardboard covers to get accurate measurements as the sizes do vary. Ex: 6" x 9" may actually be 6.5" x 10".
- Measure out your decorative paper to have a 1 inch border on all 4 sides PLUS another 1 inch in the width for the cardboard spine and space for the book to close. EX: 6" x 9" dimensions would then be 15" x 11", or for second example the 6.5" x 10" your decorative paper dimensions would be 16" x 12".
- Mark your 1 inch border with pencil line.
- Check your measurements by laying out your cardboard front & back covers and spine. The spine area is 1/2 inch for cardboard spine plus a 1/4 inch of space on either side for a total of 1 inch..
- Cut your paper to necessary size.
- Layout your cardboard front & back covers and spine on your now cut-to-size decorative paper, with marked lines to show the 1 inch border on all four sides.
- Fold the 4 corners inwards following the diagram in the instructions (included with the kits) crease the folded corners with a bone folder, remove the cardboard covers and spine, then cut off the corners.
- Fold in the 1 inch border on all 4 sides as diagrammed in the instructions, and crease with bone folder.
- Thinly apply your paste (needs to be a re-positional paste like "Nori" or "Yes" paste so that you can make adjustments) to the surface of the cardboard front & back covers and spine, and lay them paste side down onto the non-decorative side of your paper according to the diagram in the instructions.
- Thinly apply paste to the 1 inch border on all 4 sides and turn the borders in onto the cardboard front & back covers and spine, now you have the book cover done.
- Dry fit the deckle page insert into the completed book cover to see how it all fits together.
- Thinly apply your paste to the outside of the non-deckle edged first page, except for the 1/2 inch closest to the insert spine. Use a sheet of paper to between the non-deckled first page and the first deckled page to prevent paste getting on the books' pages. Repeat for the back, non-deckled last page of the deckled page insert.
- Do NOT apply paste to the spine part of the deckle page insert, the cardboard spine or within a 1/2 inch of the spine.
- Carefully insert the deckle page insert in between the closed book covers, then slightly press the pasted pages to the cardboard covers.
- Immediately open the book onto your work surface and adjust the non-deckled front and back pages so that they are smoothly pasted to the front and back covers, and test that you can open and shut your book. You may have to re-position the insert a bit until you can open and close the book easily.
- Allow paste to dry by placing your newly completed Shizen Book under a heavy book. Make sure none of the paste oozes out and pastes something shut.

This has been one of the best then s that Ive every bought I have 15 archers to mow with trees that the ice storm has destroyed almost all trees. Ive used this tractor to push brush and rake its never failed any thing that Ive put it up to the front end loader is a back saver and the finish mower cuts and looks good and all the horse I need. I use to try to mow with a riding lawn mower with a pull behind swisher 48" but each spring same thing belts,blades,pulleys,bat. and hrs of working on them but about every 3yrs I would have to replace the mower but still no power.If you want power and need push power this is the tractor.
It is one of the best tractors we have ever owned
I think this tractor is awesome and has plenty of power. I use it all of the time and i have even put a stack on it! I'm glad that this was the tractor i got. IT ROCKS!!!!!
This is my first tractor and I love it. It has been so very useful with moving the snow we've had here in the Inland Northwest this year. The only issue I've had is some bad hoses. The dealer I purchased it from has been more than helpful in correcting and fixing them. The 2415 HST is the perfect size for the small acreage I have.
I am impressed with my Mahindra 3215. I am using it to bushhog my nine acres and others, put in a field for crops and to cut and dig out a nine foot deep by a hundred foot side of a hill for our future home, besides all the menial chores a small farm needs.
The 4wd on this land is needed for the creek beds that I cross would bog down my 4wd truck, but not my little Mahindra 3215. It goes right through.
The lifting capacity of the front loader is also impressive. While lifting materials that what I thought would exceed the lifting capacity limits, this tractor would either lift it, or lift the back wheels off he ground with implements on its back end. I know it lifted some 1500lb+ of metal some three to four feet of the ground. WHOW. Try that with a John Deere…yea.
The only problem I had was a leaky hydraulic connection at the front end loader, that the dealership handled after bringing it to their attention a couple of times.
I only have three suggestions that if fixed would the 3215 PERFECT.
One, I wish Mahindra would use U.S. standardized common front light bulbs instead of small 25 watt bulbs from China that cost 27 dollars each,,,oooch. Both of mine went out with in a month. So instead of waiting weeks for the dealership to get them in and I needed them that week, I purchased two off road 55 watt halogen lights at the local auto parts store that can get replacement bulbs for under ten dollars and mounted them on the hood.
Two, if Mahindra would put a better sealer on the plastic fenders so they would not fade so fast and or supply some red paint to brighten up the look. JD guys around here made comment on this.
Three. A nice convenient cup holder somewhere around the seat. Wouldn't that be the icing on the cake. Mmmmm
For years, all I thought of was buying a Kubota tractor. But this spring when I finally decided to buy one, I happened to go by a new tractor dealership that had opened up in my area.
After test driving and comparing the Mahinda 2815 to the Kubota 7800, I bought the Mahinda. A heavier tractor with a much greater loader lifting capacity plus a really great dealer with great financing!
Actually my wife wanted me to get the 2815 (I wanted the 2516) becauce it come with a loader and a Woods backhoe.So all summer long, I have been cutting down oak trees, diging out the stumps and spreading loam for her new flower garden(s).
This winter I plan on using it clear the snow off the 300' driveway on our 5 acre lot. I may get a rear mounted snowblower if Santa can get it down the chimney!!
Your tracktors are to much. A working man cant aford it.For the perice of the 5500 4WD it should have the buckit and cultuvator with it. thank you Randy
was looking for a tractor as a upgrade for my old 8n.so far I've put about 30 hours on the machine with no problems,it will do any thing I was able to do with the 8n +, including pulling a two bottom plow,I had to remove the loader for traction reason as its very light in the rear end.You can remove and reinstall the loader very easily ,so for plowing or disking food plots or a garden its not really a big deal, for any serious loader work you will need to load the rear tires or add a weight box to the 3 point, not only for traction but for stability as it gets a little tippy. the only real complant I have is the cheap-o small plastic tool box behind the seat and lack of a cup holder,other than that it is a very strong capable machine that I would highly recomend
Well So Far this little machine does all I want it to do.
I have moved a few tonne of gravel,Top soil,Rocks and repaired a steep trail at the back of my property.
The 4WD system works a treat and this little baby can cliam with ease (even with a full bucket load). I am very happy with it so far. I bought a back 5 foot snow blade for snow ploughing this winter and the three point hitch works a treat allowing the blade to be reversed so I can scrape or plough in reverse.
Snow chains are my next purchase. The engine is pleanty powerfull and the overall quality of the machine is very good. Looking forward to many years of fun.
I have not yet purchased this tractor, but I do plan to. By reviewing the low prices and all the attachments and special features I can't wait to get started with a major project. Even though I'm thirteen I wish to be able to show my brothers that I'm not lazy like they think I am. With a tractor its size and strength I plan to farm land. mow grass, till, bail and build my father a farm he wished to have since his dad was a farmer.

Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children opened its doors to the children of Texas in 1921. One of Dallas' first orthopedic surgeons, W. B. Carrell, M.D., was approached by a group of Texas Masons who recognized a growing need to provide superior medical care to children suffering from polio regardless of the family's ability to pay. With the introduction of the Salk and Sabin vaccines in the mid-1950s, which virtually eradicated polio in the Western Hemisphere, the hospital broadened its focus to other orthopedic conditions. Helped by supporters throughout the country, Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children has emerged as one of the nation's leading medical centers for the treatment of pediatric orthopedic conditions and sports injuries and fractures, as well as certain related neurological disorders and learning disorders, such as dyslexia.
Each year, Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children provides extensive treatment and therapy for thousands of children challenged by orthopedic conditions, including scoliosis, clubfoot, congenital dislocated hip, Legg-Perthes, limb-length differences and hand conditions, as well as young athletes with sports injuries.
The hospital's Sarah M. and Charles E. Seay Center for Musculoskeletal Research supports and encourages collaboration between researchers and physicians as they search for new ways to solve our patients' individual challenges. Medical breakthroughs and new technologies developed through Scottish Rite Hospital's research efforts, such as the TSRH® SILO™ 5.5 Spinal System, TRUE/LOK™ External Fixation System and the discovery of the first gene associated with idiopathic scoliosis, have dramatically impacted the lives of not only children treated at the hospital but also throughout the world. To date, more than 25 of our researchers' discoveries have been patented.
Through the hospital's Luke Waites Center for Dyslexia and Learning Disorders, specific learning disorders, such as dyslexia, are evaluated and treated. Through the hospital's videotaped dyslexia and literacy training programs, thousands of Texas students have learned to read and write.
The hospital had 36,825 outpatient visits and performed 2,610 surgeries during fiscal year 2016. All of our physicians hold faculty appointments at UT Southwestern Medical Center and are renowned for extraordinary patient care, outstanding research and teaching of medical students, residents and fellows from around the world. More than 1,000 dedicated volunteers play an active role at Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children, supporting a staff of more than 1,000 full-time staff members. The volunteers assist in patient care and administration, donating more than 80,000 hours last year.
Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children is governed by a board of trustees who are members of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry in Texas. Scottish Rite Masons are affiliated with Freemasonry, a worldwide fraternal organization whose members share a common desire to better themselves as citizens and members of society. Financial support from the Scottish Rite or broader Masonic groups is on an individual, voluntary basis. The hospital is not affiliated with the Shriners Hospitals for Children.
Thanks to generous donors, supporters and volunteers, the hospital is carrying out its mission of giving children back their childhood. For more information, to volunteer or to make a donation, please call 214-559-5000 or 800-421-1121 or visit scottishritehospital.org.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by WoodysGirl, Mar 29, 2013.
Hmmm....then we shouldn't sign Ware, Dez, or Murray to any extention.
They can't win in big games.
As compared to your solution? We're all ears.
and what were people saying about the giants at 6-6 than a few bounces go their way and they are SB champs.
I have posed this question before, did any of the last 3 SB champs really scare enough teams that they were bonafide winners? I say no.
To be fair, Demarco missed half the season last year. But I agree you to an extent. The oline was underwhelming.
His solution is to replace Romo with Matt Barkley.
How about 13-3? Did you forget about that? Or, do you have an agenda?
Had Flacco on my fantasy team. SMH. Meh on his statistics.
Romo is a much better overall QB.
Jerry looks like a genius if Romo wins a SB now because his price would of gone up.
Im curious to see how much Rodgers gets
Believer or not, Romo single handedly tanked the Redskins game at the end of the year. Anyone pretending Romo hasn't had talent around him is delusional.
The only excuse left is the oline and I have a feeling that's what Prisco is refering to specifically with the dog meat comment.
You think your fantasy team has anything to do with actual team performance?
New respect for Prisco
Prisco is the dumbest guy on the national beat.I've said that for about ten years now.
2.Peter King
A 3 year deal? Not sure I agree with that.
You mean those two guys who are making six figures to write about professional football. If they're so dumb call Bleacher Report, get your fingers loose, and have at it. Make yourself a great living enlightening football fans everywhere.
I'm rooting for you. Honest.
I'd say it's set up for four years. The $8.5 million base salary in 2016 should be doable, but the 2017 and 2018 numbers are not really feasible to handle without another extension, which isn't likely.
Naa, I think it was the defense that gave up 800 yards rushing to a QB with 1 leg that tanked the game.
Since most of the defensive coaches have been replaced, Jerry and Steven agree with my assesment.
Snookie makes six figures too.. so i take it you know she's smarter than you, too.
I agree with him to an extent. He speaks as if Romo is playing for the Browns. This team's defense was depleated with injuries and his offensive line stinks. But Romo's targets are some of the best in the league. You can't find too many teams with a Miles Austin, Demarco Murray, Dez Bryant and Jason Witten as his main targets.
I am soo sick of the "Romo's stats" argument. I'd rather have 0 TDs over the last two years and a super bowl win than 59 TDs and no playoff wins. People wanting to compare Romo to the current super bowl winning QB based on stats are nothing but delusional homers who wouldn't know the truth if it horse collar tackled them on the 2 yard line.
I was wrong, there are more excuses left than I thought.
Agreed. He lost me there.

"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." —Matthew 13:44
As a Lawrence, Kansas, resident, I am proud to live in a place where record stores are not extinct. The MP3 meteor that impacted the music industry over a decade ago left behind the skeletons of stores that once thundered with music—stores that bridged the gap between my childhood love of dinosaurs and music that likewise shook the Earth.
Dinosaurs live on in Lawrence in the form of two record stores: Love Garden and Kief's Downtown. I visited Love Garden a few weeks ago and found myself playing the part of a musical paleontologist of sorts. In the alternative record section, I unearthed an unexpected fossil in the form of Undercover's Branded album. [Read more…]

Don't have any lineup news now. But, really, not expecting any changes … unless John Tortorella has decided to go with Martin Biron today.
Will update if any news before the game.
For those who are outside the metropolitan area and are getting one of NBC's regional games, you might try the NHL.com offer, which is free but requires registration. I'm not guaranteeing anything.
Looks like Lundqvist in goal. Eminger skated in warmups, but left early. Not sure what that means … but I'd guess he's prucha'd. Not even a hint of an incident during warmups … other than Danny Briere flipping a puck into the mid-section of his former teammate, Martin Biron.

New on 8th February 2009: Preliminary material now online! Have a look!
Short description
How to get good unit and black-box test coverage by expressive, executable specifications on your Apache Wicket application code, with JDave BDD framework and WebDriver functional testing tool.The training is mostly hands-on programming assignments of applying WebDriver and jdave-wicket for testing and adding features to a Wicket application.
Full description
Apache Wicket is a top-quality component-oriented web user interface framework for Java. JDave is a powerful Behavior-Driven Development (BDD) framework for those willing to switch Test-Driven Development (TDD) on Java to a higher gear. WebDriver is an excellent functional web testing tool for testing a deployed web application with a real browser. This hands-on training session will teach you how to get good test coverage by expressive, executable specifications on your Wicket code. The trainers have extensive experience on delivering complex, ajaxified real-world applications using these technologies.
First JDave, WebDriver and BDD philosophy will be briefly introduced, then practical examples of jdave-wicket and using jdave and WebDriver with Wicket demonstrated. The bulk of this training session will consist of hands-on programming assignments of applying jdave-wicket and WebDriver for testing and adding features to an existing Wicket application.
For the participants, a good command of Java is required, and knowledge on Apache Wicket and some unit testing or BDD framework for Java (such as JUnit, TestNG, JBehave or JDave). Experience on Wicket, WebDriver, Selenium, jMock and Hamcrest matchers is a plus. Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA is preferred as an IDE. Participants should have a laptop, but can also work in pairs.
Expertise level (beginner to advanced):
Format and duration (trainings vs. general presentation; half-, full- or two-day workshop, etc.) :
Intended audience and maximum number of participants:
Experienced Java programmers interested in improving their automatic testing / executable specification skills on Apache Wicket. Maximum 30 participants.
Background knowledge expected of the participants:
Good command of Java, knowledge on Apache Wicket and some unit testing or BDD framework (such as JUnit, TestNG, JBehave or JDave). Experience on Wicket, WebDriver, Selenium, jMock and Hamcrest matchers is a plus. Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA is preferred as an IDE.

PHILADELPHIA- The Ivy League has announced its weekly awards for field hockey, and University of Pennsylvania freshman Jasmine Cole was prominently featured. The freshman forward was named co-Ivy League Player of the Week along with Yale's Erica Borgo; she also took Ivy League Rookie of the Week honors solo.
Cole's honors were well-deserved. Playing in her first Ivy League game as a collegian, the freshman recorded a hat trick -- her second in three games -- and scored each of the Quakers' last three goals as they held off Cornell, 4-3, in the first game at the new Ellen Vagelos Field. One day later, she added another goal in Penn's 7-0 win over Pacific.
Just five games into her collegiate career, Cole already has eight goals and leads Penn in that category.
Penn is in action Wednesday afternoon, hosting La Salle at Ellen Vagelos Field at 4 p.m. On Saturday, the Quakers return to Ivy League action at Harvard, facing off with the Crimson at noon.

Thomas Wasper is a Long Beach-based freelance photojournalist, entrepreneur and author. His book, "A Stitch in Crime: The Poetry of Murder," will be released on Friday.
Q: Your book merges my two hobbies: poetry and murder. And it's funny. You find murder funny, do you?
A: It's my biggest fear. But I wrote the book to loosen the fear and to point out the cock-eyed reasoning of the oh-so-serious killers who committed these murders.
Q: The best reasoning for murdering someone, I think, was David Berkowitz, "Son of Sam," who killed because his neighbor's dog Harvey, which was possessed by a demon, told him to. You wrote in your book:
"I'm Mr. Monster, Son of Sam,
I take my orders, but not from man.
I hear what he says, never ask why.
When Harvey says "Arf!" I say "how high?"
A: Sometimes I wonder if Harvey had a reason for telling Berkowitz to kill, or was he just a bad dog bored out of his mind on a hot summer night having a go with the imbecile next door?
Q: You hit on all the great killers: Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacy, Lizzie Borden. I like your Zodiac Killer poem:
"Zodiac Killer found his prey in the park,
groping and fondling in their cars in the dark.
Virgins survive while the wicked lay dead,
too cheap to put out for a motel room bed."
Q: How long did it take you to put all these poems and biographies together?
A: I worked on it for years. I kept buying books about the killers, and I'd read just enough to get a poem written. Some I just read a little bit. Others, like Charles Guiteau, who shot President James Garfield, I became fascinated with. I read as much as I could about Guiteau. His attorney tried to argue for insanity. Every time he told the court that Charles wasn't intelligent, Charles would jump up and say how smart he was. Or when his attorney said Charles had never held a job, Charles would shout out his list of credentials.
Q: You had an earlier book called "Famous Killers for Early Learners."
A: This is that book, but with some new stuff and a new title and a great cover by Joe Allard, who used Norman Rockwell's painting of a barbershop quartet and turned it into three killers and a bloodied victim. I published "Famous Killers" myself and it sold OK locally, but I needed to find someone to publish it who could get it out to more places.
Q: How did you find a publisher?
A: I was on a photo assignment to take pictures of some publishers, and I showed them the book and they loved it. They loved it so much they made a bunch of changes, including the title. They didn't want parents to get confused and buy it for their children.
Q: You've had nothing but success in your short life. I remember when you won the apple pie contest back in the late 1980s or early '90s.
A: I registered to enter the contest back when there used to be a big Chili Cook-Off in town. Then, they sent me a letter saying they weren't having it because the Health Department wouldn't let them.
Q: Then I wrote about it, saying you should be the winner by default. Plus, it was good pie.
A: That was only 20 years after Watergate. You still had a lot of power. It changed everything. They said they'd give me a blue ribbon and that the mayor would present me with the award at the cook-off. I chickened out.
Q: After that you started your company Selfish Causes.
A: I was ripping off Lance Armstrong's Livestrong. I made a bunch of wristbands that were just for selfish causes instead of charities. They said things like "Alcohol," and "Breast Implants." Then I made what I thought would make me millions of dollars: the humorous sympathy cards. I had thousands of cards made in China, and I was worried that that might not even be enough. I think I sold maybe three cards. I made a tactical error in that the only people you'd want to send them to would be your friends, and they would be the ones who were dead. Their spouses and survivors wouldn't think they were funny.
Q: Kind of like if my cousin were killed by John Wayne Gacy I wouldn't think it was funny. Even if Gacy was dressed up like a circus clown?
A: Yeah. It's not necessarily something everyone would find funny. I was trying to get the book into a big chain and the buyer said, "I think it's hilarious, but we're not going to carry it." That would make a good blurb for the cover.

Depression is anger turned inward. Living a meaningful life can be difficult if we are confronted with loss or trauma. Depression may be conceptionalized as a condition serving as a defense mechanism. The depressed individual has given up - so as to no longer be vulnerable to further failure or rejection. In this sense, he/she can not see future possibilities and therefore has lost hope. The inherent difficulty with living one's life to be "safe" is one can not grow. There can be no hope without possibility. Our approach is aimed at recovering possibility and growth in our clients. We will always meet our clients where they are and utilize a comprehensive approach building upon strengths.

About Other French
Vin de Pays(vahn duh peh-YEE)
One of the lower levels in the French Classification system, Vin de Pays is an intermediary wine, created for vineyards who were not quite AC, but vastly superior to Vin de Table wine. Vin de Pays has restrictions similar to the AC, but on a lesser scale. Regulations include specified region, minimum alcohol level and grape varieties. The wine also goes through a tasting panel. Some winemakers able to make wine at an AC level, instead choose to create wine at the Vin de Pays level as it allows more flexibility in grape varieties and yields. There are five regional Vin de Pays, with the most popular being Vin Pays d'Oc (from Languedoc & Roussillon). Vin de Pays wines offer wonderful value and good wine finds.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

Making the grade
The Guide to Computer Training listed its Top 50 Open Source blogs on Tuesday, and included in the 50 — at number 20, no less (though I realized later that the list is in alphabetical order, so I didn't really finish way ahead of Slashdot) — is yours truly and this blog.
After I picked myself up off the floor, I have to say I am beyond honored. It's good to be in the company of these folks who regularly write about FOSS, GNU/Linux and Linux, especially Bruce Byfield, whose essays masquerading as blog posts appear thanks to Linux Magazine.
However, there are several blogs which stand head and shoulders above this one that deserve to be on that list which, for whatever reason, didn't make make the cut.
So if you're here from the Guide to Computer Training site, welcome, first of all; second, you need to add these five blogs — five which come immediately to mind, though there are many more — to the list that the previous site provides (as well as other blogs which readers are urged to add to the list in comments below):
Click, by Steven Rosenberg: This blog, which appears on the Los Angeles Daily News' site, is always chock full of information as Steven traverses the Free/Open Source landscape using both GNU/Linux and BSD. Most, if not all, of his Debian/Ubuntu adventures are very informative and I've learned something from all of his blogs, even when I've disagreed with him (which, to my knowledge, has only been once).
Shallow Thoughts by Akkana Peck: Don't be misled by the title — this is far and away the most educational blog over a wide variety of FOSS programs and issues that I have ever read. And it's not the blog so much as Akkana writes about — and links to — her tutorials in the blog. All her tutorials are absolute gems, and our Christmas cards last year were produced, in large part, thanks to her GIMP tutorial. Since I live just "over the hill" from the Silicon Valley, I get the bonus of hearing her speak when she addresses local LUGs. But if you can find talks she has done, like her presentation on "Make Your Old Laptop a Ferrari" she gave at the Southern California Linux Expo earlier this year, it's time well spent.
Blog of Helios by Ken Starks: To say that working with Ken is an honor would be a gross understatement. I met Ken when I gave him $10 toward putting Tux on the nose of an Indy car during the 2007 Indianapolis 500. Ken came to California during Lindependence in 2008, where we invited the entire town of Felton, California, to a church hall to see Linux and take home a Live CD or two. Now, Ken is giving underprivileged kids in the Austin, Texas, area a leg-up in providing Linux boxes to them through the HeliOS Project. Ken's blog points out the highs and lows of bringing FOSS to the world, and his down-home humor that's reminiscent of fellow Texan Jim Hightower — oooh, he's going to hate me for saying that — is always a plus.
Dissociated Press by Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier: Zonker's claim to fame, other than a nickname he picked up in college, is that he was the OpenSUSE Community Manager for the last couple of years. But what's probably more interesting — and thankfully more important to those of us promoting FOSS — is that Joe's talent and skill as a journalist precede, and thankfully now follows, his gig at OpenSUSE. He could be writing for any publication on any topic, but thankfully he's writing about FOSS.
Steven J. Vaughan-Nichols' Computerworld Blog: More times than not, Steven is first out of the gate with FOSS news and developments, which alone would make his blog a must read. What's more — and I mean this as a compliment — Steven's not afraid to "go off the reservation" and write about non-FOSS issues as well. Everything on the blog is written with an artesian depth of understanding that points to his wide experience, and I get the sense that he embraces, Mencken-like, being FOSS's resident curmudgeon. But I could be wrong . . . .
There are others that deserve to make the cut as well, and I'd urge you to add them to the comment list below.
And thanks, Guide to Computer Training — I will try to live up to your standards in being one of the Top 50.

WATCH: Miley sends dying fan heartwarming video
Miley Cyrus put her outrageous, twerking persona side to give a little girl her last smile.
She recently sent 12-year-old super fan Caley Camarillo, who suffered from cystic fibrosis, a heartwarming video message an hour before she passed away.
According to Cambio, the two met a few years back and Miley found it necessary to reach out to Caley's mother, who even managed to smile at the video.

Scholar Athlete
The Scholar Athlete Learning Community is a cohort based program designed for students interested in exceling in sports and academics. Using the same traits and characteristics applied to achievement in their sport, students build the reading, writing and critical thinking skills needed to succeed in college. Engaged faculty and coaches work together to provide a perspective and orientation in which students recognize that athletics and academics complement each other. Success in the Scholar Athlete Learning Community prepares students to pursue their athletic and academic goals at the four-year college level.
An example of such success enjoyed by individuals comprising a team is the Men's Basketball program. Several players participate in the learning community each year. Under the direction of Head Coach, Justin Piergrossi, with the support of faculty Chris Gibson and Dino Nomicos, Skyline College's Men's Basketball team was selected as the state Scholar Team Award winner for Men's Basketball in 2009-2010 and has been a finalist in 2011-2012 and 2012-2013. Team members have transferred to numerous four-year colleges to complete their education and participate in basketball.

Discussion in 'NFL Zone' started by BTX, Nov 27, 2012.
It was five years today he lost his life. What a tragedy he was so gifted.
RIP Sean
Very, RIP.
I do recall people here calling him a thug the day before he was shot and then worshipping the day after.
RIP Sean Taylor.
I wont deny that he had some bad moments the first couple of years in the league. But after his daughter was born he was a completely different man, it changed him. He was a very talented player, and was a great father who died protecting his girlfriend and his daughter. Dont put him down in death, respect that he died protecting people he loved.
I wasn't posting here at that time but I wouldn't be surprised at all given what these posters say about the players on their own team.
Well he WAS a thug... but it's still sad to see a young person die is such a tragic manner...
No offense but...who cares? Why does something that stupid even matter?
Yeah I didn't understand why he brought that up either.
Having compassion for others is not easy for some people. It's easier for some to hate and insult rather than emphasize.
Pointing out hypocrisy I'd wager.
RIP Sean.
Good post
Man I remember when it happened. Initially it was reported that he was shot in the leg and I thought hed be back in a few weeks. So unfortunate. RIP.
No he wasn't. I get so tired of people throwing the term thug around loosely like you are doing.
Very classy thread, CZ. It is much appreciated by this Skins fan!
Do you think you are more mature than at 24?
I'd like to think he was starting to, but never got the chance.

Jordin Sparks Shows Off AMAZING Weight Loss In Bikini Pics!!
The 24-year-old posted a photo of herself Wednesday on Instagram clad in a bright and skimpy bikini and floppy hat—and her body looks bangin'!!
"I'm an Arizona girl through and through! I love the sun, Safely, of course," Jordin captioned the pic.
Jordin claims to have lost weight the good old fashioned way, dropping the pounds over an 18 month period through diet and exercise.
The American Idol alum shared her weight loss tips with Redbook.
"I never felt like I was suffering by eating less and exercising more," she says. "The key was finding exercises I enjoyed. If you don't, you won't stick with it."
"I started walking with my cousin every day," Jordin says, explaining she also learned to rethink why, as well as what, she is eating.
"Ask yourself, 'Am I really hungry, or am I having this because it looks good?'" she says. "It doesn't have to be about sacrificing all the things you love. Just be conscious of portion size and why you're eating."
She says she eventually moved on to working with a trainer and built up to her current exercise regime of 12 reps each of biceps curls, shoulder presses, and triceps extensions daily.
And Sparks' diet rule number one?
Avoid carbs after 5 p.m. and snack on fruit rather than baked goods.
"It's more satisfying than that cookie" apparently.
Well, as Kate Moss once said, "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."

I'm always trying to nudge my children into eating just a bit more healthfully than they might naturally like to. Of course, with kids, it's not as easy as plopping down a kale salad or flax cereal. But, when it comes to introducing healthy ingredients and giving their favorite foods a boost, I do have a few tricks up my sleeve. I love making muffins, and they love eating them, so a wholesome muffin recipe is often the perfect way to get them eating a little more fiber, protein, fruit, or vegetables. I love to add a wholesome muffin to their lunch boxes —— they see it as a special treat and I know their getting their nutrients.
Many of these muffins are made with the good stuff like butter and sugar, but I've hand-picked a selection that also feature great, healthful ingredients like wheat germ, flax, fresh fruit, whole wheat, olive oil, and nuts.
