+
+      # The primary interface for finding records with {AWS::Record::Model}.
+      #
+      # == Getting a Scope Object
+      #
+      # You should normally never need to construct a Scope object directly.
+      # Scope objects are returned from the AWS::Record::Model finder methods
+      # (e.g. +shard+, +where+, +order+, +limit+, etc).
+      #
+      #   books = Book.where(:author => 'John Doe')
+      #   books.class #=> AWS::Record::Scope, not Array
+      #
+      # Scopes are also returned from methods defined with the +scope+ method.
+      #
+      # == Chaining Scopes
+      #
+      # Scope objects represent a request, but do not actualy make a request
+      # until required.  This allows you to chain requests
+      #
+      #   # no request made by the following 2 statements
+      #   books = Book.where(:author => 'John Doe')
+      #   books = books.limit(10)
+      #
+      #   books.each do |book|
+      #     # yields up to 10 books
+      #   end
+      #
+      # Each of the following methods returns a scope that can be chained.
+      #
+      # * {#shard}
+      # * {#where}
+      # * {#order}
+      # * {#limit}
+      #
+      # == Terminating Scopes
+      #
+      # To terminate a scope you can enumerate it or call #first.
+      #
+      #   # terminate a scope by enumerating
+      #   Book.limit(10).each {|book| ... }
+      #

+      #

+      #
+      # * '1' is the default value for most checkbox form helpers, and #
+      #   therefore indicates an accepted value.
+      #
+      # * +true+ is how boolean attributes typecast '1'. This is helpful
+      #   when you have your checkbox post its value to a +:boolean_attr+.
+      #
+      # === Multi-Valued Attributes

+
+      # Intended primarily for validating a form field was entered correctly
+      # by requiring it twice:
+      #
+      #   Model:
+      #     class User < AWS::Record::Model
+      #       validates_confirmation_of :password, :if => :password_changed?
+      #     end
+      #
+      #   View:
+      #     <%= password_field "user", "password" %>
+      #     <%= password_field "user", "password_confirmation" %>
+      #
+      # === Confirmation Value Accessors
+      #
+      # If your model does not have accessors for the confirmation value 
+      # then they will be automatically added.  In the example above
+      # the user class would have an +attr_accessor+ for 
+      # +:password_confirmation+.
+      #
+      # === Conditional Validation
+      #
+      # Mostly commonly you only need to validate confirmation of an
+      # attribute when it has changed.  It is therefore suggested to 
+      # pass an +:if+ condition reflecting this:
+      # 
+      #   validates_confirmation_of :password, :if => :password_changed?
+      #
+      # === Multi-Valued Attributes
+      #

+      #

+      #   @param attributes A list of attribute names to validate.

+      end
+
+      # Validates the number of values for a given attribute.
+      #
+      # === Length vs Count
+      # 
+      # +validates_count_of+ validates the number of attribute values,
+      # whereas +validates_length_of: validates the length of each 
+      # attribute value instead.
+      #
+      # If you need to ensure each attribute value is a given length see
+      # {#validates_length_of} instead.
+      #
+      # === Examples
+      #
+      # You can validate there are a certain number of values:
+      #
+      #   validates_count_of :parents, :exactly => 2
+      # 
+      # You can also specify a range:
+      #
+      #   validates_count_of :tags, :within => (2..10)
+      #
+      # You can also specify min and max value seperately:
+      #
+      #   validates_count_of :tags, :minimum => 2, :maximum => 10
+      #
+      # === +nil+ Values
+      #
+      # If you are validating an array or set that contains +nil+ values,
+      # the +nil+ values are counted normally as 1 each.
+      #
+      # If you are validating a non-enuemrable attribute that only
+      # contains a single nil or other scalar value, then nil is
+      # counted as 0.
+      #
+      # === Singular Attributes
+      #
+      # This validator is intended to for validating attributes that have
+      # an array or set of values.  If used on an attribute that
+      # returns a scalar value (like +nil+ or a string), the count will 
+      # always be 0 (for +nil+) or 1 (for everything else).
+      #
+      # It is therefore recomended to use +:validates_presence_of+ in
+      # place of +:validates_count_of+ when working with single-valued
+      # attributes.
+      #
+      # @overload validates_count_of(*attributes, options = {}, &block)

+      #   @param [Hash] options
+      #   @option options [Integer] :exactly The exact number of values the 
+      #     attribute should have.  If this validation option fails the 
+      #     error message specified by +:wrong_number+ will be added.
+      #   @option options [Range] :within An range of number of values to 
+      #     accept.  If the attribute has a number of values outside this range
+      #     then the +:too_many+ or +:too_few+ error message will be added.
+      #   @option options [Integer] :minimum The minimum number of values
+      #     the attribute should have.  If it has fewer, the +:too_few+ error
+      #     message will be added.
+      #   @option options [Integer] :maximum The maximum number of values

+      #     message will be added.
+      #   @option options [String] :too_many An error message added
