  URL url = new URL(rssFeedurl);
  HttpURLConnection httpcon = 
          (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
          
  SyndFeedInput input = new SyndFeedInput();
  SyndFeed feed = input.build(new XmlReader(httpcon));
  List entries = feed.getEntries();
  Iterator<SyndEntry> itEntries = entries.iterator();

  while (itEntries.hasNext()) {
    SyndEntry entry = itEntries.next();
    log.info("Title: " + entry.getTitle());
    log.info("Link: " + entry.getLink());
    log.info("Author: " + entry.getAuthor());
    log.info("Publish Date: " + entry.getPublishedDate());
    log.info("Description: " + 
          entry.getDescription().getValue());            
  }
