Scripting language manual
This manual provides introduction to RouterOS built-in powerful scripting language.
Scripting host provides a way to automate some router maintenance tasks by means of executing user-defined scripts bounded to some event occurrence.
Scripts can be stored in Script repository or can be written directly to console. The events used to trigger script execution include, but are not limited to the System Scheduler, the Traffic Monitoring Tool, and the Netwatch Toolgenerated events.
Line structure
RouterOS script is divided into number of command lines. Command lines are executed one by one until the end of script or until runtime error occur.
Command line
RouterOS console uses following command syntax:
[prefix] [path] command [uparam] [param=[value]] .. [param=[value]]
[prefix] - ":" or "/" character which indicates if command is ICE or path. May or may not be required.
[path] - relative path to the desired menu level. May or may not be required.
command - one of the commands available at the specified menu level.
[uparam] - unnamed parameter, must be specified if command requires it.
[params] - sequence of named parameters followed by respective values
The end of command line is represented by the token ";" or NEWLINE. Sometimes ";" or NEWLINE is not required to end the command line.
Single command inside (), [] or {} does not require any end of command character. End of command is determined by content of whole script
:if ( true ) do={ :put "lala" }
Each command line inside another command line starts and ends with square brackets "[ ]" (command concatenation).
:put [/ip route get [find gateway=184.108.40.206]];
Notice that code above contains three command lines:
/ip route get
find gateway=18.104.22.168
Command line can be constructed from more than one physical line by following line joining rules.
Physical Line
A physical line is a sequence of characters terminated by an end-of-line (EOL) sequence. Any of the standard platform line termination sequences can be used:
unix – ASCII LF;
windows – ASCII CR LF;
mac – ASCII CR;
Standard C conventions for new line characters can be used ( the \n character).
A comment starts with a hash character (#) and ends at the end of the physical line. Whitespace or any other symbols are not allowed before hash symbol. Comments are ignored by syntax. If (#) character appear inside string it is not considered a comment.
# this is a comment # bad comment :global a; # bad comment :global myStr "lala # this is not a comment"
Line joining
Two or more physical lines may be joined into logical lines using backslash character (\). A line ending in a backslash cannot carry a comment. A backslash does not continue a comment. A backslash does not continue a token except for string literals. A backslash is illegal elsewhere on a line outside a string literal.
:if ($a = true \ and $b=false) do={ :put "$a $b"; } :if ($a = true \ # bad comment and $b=false) do={ :put "$a $b"; } # comment \ continued – invalid (syntax error)
Whitespace between tokens
Whitespace can be used to separate tokens. Whitespace is necessary between two tokens only if their concatenation could be interpreted as a different token. Example:
{ :local a true; :local b false; # whitespace is not required :put (a&&b); # whitespace is required :put (a and b); }
Whitespace are not allowed
between '='
between 'from=' 'to=' 'step=' 'in=' 'do=' 'else='
#incorrect: :for i from = 1 to = 2 do = { :put $i } #correct syntax: :for i from=1 to=2 do={ :put $i } :for i from= 1 to= 2 do={ :put $i } #incorrect /ip route add gateway = 126.96.36.199 #correct /ip route add gateway=22.214.171.124
Variables can be used only in certain regions of the script. These regions are called scopes. Scope determines visibility of the variable. There are two types of scopes - global and local. A variable declared within a block is accessible only within that block and blocks enclosed by it, and only after the point of declaration.
Global scope
Global scope or root scope is default scope of the script. It is created automatically and can not be turned off.
Local scope
User can define its own groups to block access to certain variables, these scopes are called local scopes. Each local scope is enclosed in curly braces ("{ }").
{ :local a 3; { :local b 4; :put ($a+$b); } #line below will generate error :put ($a+$b); }
In code above variable b has local scope and will not be accessible after closed curly brace.
Note: Each line written in terminal is treated as local scope
So for example, defined local variable will not be visible in next command line and will generate syntax error
[admin@MikroTik] > :local myVar a; [admin@MikroTik] > :put $myVar syntax error (line 1 column 7)
Warning: Do not define global variables inside local scopes.
Note that even variable can be defined as global, it will be available only from its scope unless it is not already defined.
{ :local a 3; { :global b 4; } :put ($a+$b); }
Code above will generate an error.
The following words are keywords and cannot be used as variable and function names:
and or not in
The following tokens serve as delimiters in the grammar:
() [] {} : ; $ /
Data types
RouterOS scripting language has following data types:
Type Description
number - 64bit signed integer, possible hexadecimal input;
boolean - values can bee true or false;
string - character sequence;
IP - IP address;
internal ID - hexadecimal value prefixed by '*' sign. Each menu item has assigned unique number - internal ID;
time - date and time value;
array - sequence of values organized in an array;
nil - default variable type if no value is assigned;
Constant Escape Sequences
Following escape sequences can be used to define certain special character within string:
\" Insert double quote
\\ Insert backslash
\n Insert newline
\r Insert carriage return
\t Insert horizontal tab
\$ Output $ character. Otherwise $ is used to link variable.
\? Output ? character. Otherwise ? is used to print "help" in console.
\_ - space
\a - BEL (0x07)
\b - backspace (0x08)
\f - form feed (0xFF)
\v Insert vertical tab
\xx Print character from hex value. Hex number should use capital letters.
:put "\48\45\4C\4C\4F\r\nThis\r\nis\r\na\r\ntest";
which will show on display
Arithmetic Operators
Usual arithmetic operators are supported in RouterOS scripting language
Opearator Description Example
"+" binary addition :put (3+4);
"-" binary subtraction :put (1-6);
"*" binary multiplication :put (4*5);
"/" binary division :put (10 / 2); :put ((10)/2)
"-" unary negation { :local a 1; :put (-a); }
Note: for division to work you have to use braces or spaces around dividend so it is not mistaken as IP address
Relational Operators
Opearator Description Example
"<" less :put (3<4);
">" greater :put (3>4);
"=" equal :put (2=2);
"<=" less or equal
">=" greater or equal
"!=" not equal
Logical Operators
Opearator Description Example
"!" , "not" logical NOT :put (!true);
"&&" , "and" logical AND :put (true&&true)
"||" , "or" logical OR :put (true||false);
"in" :put (220.127.116.11/32 in 220.127.116.11/8);
Bitwise Operators
Bitwise operators are working on number and ip address data types.
Opearator Description Example
"~" bit inversion :put (~0.0.0.0)
"|" bitwise OR. Performs logical OR operation on each pair of corresponding bits. In each pair the result is "1" if one of bits or both bits are "1", otherwise the result is "0".
"^" bitwise XOR. The same as OR, but the result in each position is "1" if two bits are not equal, and "0" if bits are equal.
"&" bitwise AND. In each pair the result is "1" if first and second bit is "1". Otherwise the result is "0".
"<<" left shift by given amount of bits
">>" right shift by given amount of bits
Concatenation Operators
Opearator Description Example
"." concatenates two strings :put ("concatenate" . " " . "string");
"," concatenates two arrays or adds element to array :put ({1;2;3} , 5 );
It is possible to add variable values to strings without concatenation operator:
:global myVar "world"; :put ("Hello " . $myVar); # next line does the same as above :put "Hello $myVar";
By using $[] and $() in string it is possible to add expressions inside strings:
:local a 5; :local b 6; :put " 5x6 = $($a * $b)"; :put " We have $[ :len [/ip route find] ] routes";
Other Operators
Opearator Description Example
"[]" command substitution. Can contain only single command line :put [ :len "my test string"; ];
"()" sub expression or grouping operator :put ( "value is " . (4+5));
"$" substitution operator :global a 5; :put $a;
"~" binary operator that matches value against POSIX extended regular expression Print all routes which gateway ends with 202
/ip route print where gateway~"^[0-9 \\.]*202"

Healthcare jobs account for 17% of total new jobs
Although healthcare jobs represented 17% of the economy's total new jobs in August, job growth in the sector is still sluggish, analysts say.
The healthcare sector added 16,700 new jobs in August, an increase of 0.1%, according to figures released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
It also was not great news for nursing homes, which had a 2.6% lower hiring rate in August when compared to a month before. These new numbers bring the healthcare industry's total employment to 14.4 million jobs. Hospitals did better, with employment rising by .12% in August. Hospitals are employing 83,600 more people than a year ago, according to the BLS.
Though economists were slightly encouraged to see that unemployment fell to 8.1%, the 96,000 new jobs added to the economy falls far below what they were hoping to see, the Associated Press reported.

"Many A Levels are already assessed solely by exams but those that are currently a mix of exams and coursework may be changed. There will be no more than 20% coursework and only in areas where there is recognition that certain skills cannot be assessed in an exam e.g. creative writing in English. Otherwise, assessment will be by exam only. In Sciences, practical assessment will be reported separately as a pass or fail, rather than as part of the A Level grade."

February 19, 2014 14:54 ET
OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb. 19, 2014) - It was with great pleasure that the Canadian Poultry Research Council (CPRC) received the announcement that Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada will contribute $4 million to Canadian poultry research under the AgriInnovation Program (AIP), part of the Growing Forward 2 program.
The announcement was made yesterday at the Arkell Poultry Research Station, University of Guelph on February 18th. Funding will support a Poultry Science Cluster, which CPRC will administer.
A "cluster" brings together multidisciplinary teams of scientists to solve complex problems and to create synergies in research efforts. It is a way to make the most of available resources and supports a strong business case for investing in Canadian poultry research. Pooling intellectual and financial resources to address issues of common interest is a powerful way to maximize the impact of our collective investment in research.
"Our member organizations have made a strong commitment to Canadian poultry research in both funding and resources and take pleasure in partnering with Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in this important initiative," said Roelof Meijer, CPRC Chairman and turkey producer from Alberta.
The Poultry Science Cluster provides capacity to resolve many current issues facing the poultry industry. The unique cooperation among scientists, industry partners and government departments across Canada will synergize efforts to address these issues. The scale of the Cluster allows for basic research and more near-term, applied studies that will provide both immediate answers and future information for the poultry and food industries, as well as factors impacting consumer wellbeing.
"The cluster approach allows industry and researchers to take a longer term view than usual when planning and conducting research on important issues for the poultry industry, consumers and society in general," said Meijer. "I offer my thanks to Agriculture Minister Gerry Ritz for the federal government's support of poultry research, which helps to ensure a vibrant and sustainable industry."

(Reuters) - The center of Tropical Storm Harvey is likely to remain just off the coast of Texas through Tuesday night before moving inland over the northwestern Gulf of Mexico on Wednesday, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said.
The storm is not expected to further intensify before its center crosses the coast again within 36 hours or so, the NHC said.
Harvey is now located about 135 miles (220 km) south-southwest of Port Arthur, Texas with maximum sustained winds of 45 miles per hour (75 km per hour), it added.

Everybody's talking about Facebook and Twitter. But if you're a local business owner or a marketer, here's one thing to remember: don't let Google's own social networking service – Google+ – fall out of your radar.
According to travel reviews aggregator TripAdvisor, more and more people are using Google+ to do research and find information for their travel plans. The social network has, in fact, become a rising influence for travelers, with 40 percent of respondents in TripAdvisor's TripBarometer survey saying that they turned to Google+ for travel information while planning their trips; 22 percent even said that it's the most useful social network for planning their travels.
(Check out: "Luxury Travelers Influenced More by Online Reviews Than by Peer Recommendations")
They're using it to research destinations, look at text/photo/ video content, read hotel reviews, check restaurant ratings, and find information about local businesses. This puts Google+ as the second most popular social network – after Facebook – for travel research, ahead of other social networking services like Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest.
Still not convinced that you should include it in your social media marketing mix? Google+ is also heavily integrated with Google's other services, including Search, Google Maps, and Google+ Local, its own online reviews aggregator and recommendation engine. Which means that you ought to at least take on a more active role in monitoring online reviews and information found in these Google products.
"Though much maligned stateside, Google+ has a growing worldwide footprint," wrote eMarketer in an analysis. "Research shows the network's rising influence during the travel planning phase…. The site's nomenclature – regardless if it's 'officially' a social network – has little bearing on its influence for travel research. Google+ continues to integrate content – including photos from travelers, travel brands and destinations, along with user reviews from Zagat – into an increasingly larger space on the right side of the search engine results pages. When users click in that space, they're rerouted to a Google+ Local Page, and they're using Google+ whether they realize it or not."
TripBarometer is a comprehensive report by TripAdvisor covering travel attitudes and behaviors of consumers as well as the hotel industry's plans and expectations for the year ahead. The study is based on the results of a month-long survey conducted on behalf of TripAdvisor by research firm StrategyOne, taking into account the responses of 35,042 people from 26 countries spanning 7 regions.

Common treatments for colitis include medications including antidiarrheals, corticosteroids and antibiotics, as stated by WebMD. Other treatments include diet and nutrition changes.Continue Reading
Those suffering from colitis are often instructed to eliminate any food or drink that aggravate symptoms, as noted by the Crohn's and Colitis Foundation of America. In severe cases or when less invasive treatments are ineffective, surgery is an option. Surgery is often done to remove the colon. Sometimes, treatment in the hospital is required, especially when other conditions occur in conjunction with the colitis. Only a doctor can diagnose the disease and recommend the proper treatment and medications.Learn more about Gastrointestinal Issues

The Carnival of Venice 2012. Masks. © www.noraphotos.com
There is very little evidence explaining the motive for the earliest mask wearing in Venice. It has been argued that covering the face in public was a uniquely Venetian response to one of the most rigid class hierarchies in European history.
The first documented sources mentioning the use of masks in Venice can be found as far back as the 13th century. The mask would permit the wearer to act more freely in cases where he or she wanted to interact with other members of the society outside the bounds of identity and everyday convention. It was useful for a variety of purposes, some of them illicit or criminal, others just personal, such as romantic encounters.
Venetian masks are characterised by their ornate design, featuring bright colours such as gold or silver and the use of complex decorations in the baroque style. Many designs of Venetian masks stem from Commedia dell'arte. They can be full-face masks (e.g. the bauta) or eye masks (e.g. the Columbina).
It is said that the Carnival of Venice was originated from a victory of the "Repubblica della Serenissima", Venice previous name, against the Patriarch of Aquileia, Ulrico in the year 1162. In the honor of this victory, the people started to dance and make reunions in San Marco Square. Apparently this festival started on that period and become official in the Renaissance. After a long absence, the Carnival return to operate in 1979. The Italian government decided to bring back the history and culture of Venice, and sought to use the traditional Carnival as the centerpiece of their efforts. Today, approximately 3,000,000 visitors come to Venice each day for Carnivals. (source: Wikipedia)

Up to 20,000 primary school pupils at risk of developing weight problems will be targeted by a new generation of "lifestyle coaches", it was revealed.
The specially-trained staff will give children an extra hour of physical activity every week – on top of conventional PE lessons.
Government officials said the sessions would be aimed at boosting children's confidence, improving fitness and cutting weight. Activities are expected to include yoga, martial arts and free running – a form of street acrobatics in which participants use walls, stairs and railings to perform stunts.
The move comes amid continuing fears over obesity rates among young children.
One-in-seven primary schoolchildren are now seriously overweight and experts predict that the problem could dramatically worsen in coming decades.
Children failing to exercise are at increased risk of developing serious illnesses such as heart disease, type-two diabetes and some cancers in later life.
Ministers insist that the problem is "levelling off" and investment in public health campaigns, combined with improved school dinners and more outdoor play areas are helping to tackle childhood obesity.
But the British Heart Foundation accused Labour of "shilly-shallying around" with headline-grabbing schemes.
Peter Hollins, chief executive, said: "Unfortunately, childhood obesity levels in England remain far too high and it is too early to trumpet success when the Government still hasn't taken the steps it needs to really tackle this problem.
"They need to stop shilly-shallying around and bring in a single front-of-pack food labelling scheme without further dithering.
"The Government must also do more to stand up to junk food marketers. A ban on all junk food advertising before the 9pm watershed is the only way to stop children from being bombarded with adverts for unhealthy products."
Under the latest scheme, some 1,100 "lifestyle coaches" will be trained to target children who fail to play a full part in PE lessons.
The staff – drawn from the existing school workforce and parents – will be given specialist training, equipment and resources as part of a £1m scheme funded by the Department for Children, Schools and Families and the Department of Health.
Coaches will target children aged four and five – in the first year of primary school – and those aged 10 and 11 who are about to move into secondary education.
Pupils, who will be referred to staff by GPs and classroom teachers, will receive one hour every week of fitness activities designed to "improve self-esteem and confidence", the Government said. Some 20,000 children will be affected in 1,100 English schools.
The plans were unveiled as the Government published a report - Healthy Weight, Healthy Lives: Two Years On – which reviews the impact of Labour's cross-government obesity strategy.
Gillian Merron, the public health minister, said: "It's vital that we help every child to get a decent amount of exercise if they are to avoid serious health problems.
"Although childhood obesity is levelling off, the Government will do everything it can to support those children most at risk. Active Lifestyle Coaches will help these children find a fun way onto the right track."

Voters in Anna Maria won't cast ballots for city commissioners or mayor in November, and yet the city faces a number of choices — all to be decided at the dais.
Anna Maria Mayor Mike Selby has issued a letter to all staff and commissioners in an attempt to clarify the procedures to elect a mayor once the Nov. 6 general election is concluded.
No candidate qualified to succeed Selby, who decided last month not to seek another term.
Selby's letter explains the procedures as outlined in the city charter, mostly because the charter brought forth questions on the process and the term lengths required of elected officials. There appears to be some misunderstanding of the charter.
Selby said commission candidates Chuck Webb, an incumbent, and Nancy Yetter, a first-time officeholder, will become commissioners when sworn at the commission's post-election organizational meeting.
Those procedures are no problem for the city, as the charter states that if only one candidate qualifies for each commission vacancy, "he or she shall be deemed elected without the necessity of having his or her name appear on the ballot."
The problems come at the commission's post-election organizational meeting, which apparently will be chaired by Selby.
The charter states that if there is no qualified candidate for mayor, "the office shall be filled until the next general election by the deputy mayor. The commission vacancy thus created shall be filled by appointment and the appointee shall serve until the next regular city election."
Thus, the commissioner elected as commission chair automatically becomes the deputy mayor and the new mayor of Anna Maria.
Webb said he already has a full-time legal practice and the job of Anna Maria mayor is a "full-time position" that doesn't pay enough money.
Scratch Webb from the list of candidates for mayor.
Commissioner John Quam, who has one year remaining in his term, said he would not accept the job of commission chair if nominated or elected.
"I would have to decline. It's a full-time job," said Quam, who is a retired executive.
Scratch Quam from the list of candidates.
Commissioner-elect Yetter also said she would decline if nominated for commission chair and mayor of the city.
"I have too many family responsibilities in Tampa that require my presence. There's no way I could ensure I would be at city hall every day, or even every other day," Yetter said.
Scratch Yetter from the list of potential candidates.
Commissioner Dale Woodland, who has served seven years and has one year remaining in his present term, also said he would decline if nominated or elected.
"I want to keep my vote," he said.
That leaves Commissioner SueLynn, a former mayor who also has one year remaining in her term, as the only potential candidate for the chair's position, which then requires serving as mayor.
"I would consider becoming commission chair if nominated," she said.
SueLynn served as mayor 2002-06, and was elected commissioner in 2011.
While not making her answer decisive, she said it would make sense to select the mayor from among the three commissioners who have only a year remaining in his or her term.
"It makes sense because the interim mayor is only serving one year until the next election," SueLynn said.
Not exactly, said city attorney Jim Dye at the commission's June 14 meeting. The next mayor serves until the next general election, which is when state and national elections are held.
That means the next mayor serves a two-year term.
But Selby said in his letter that the next mayor "will serve until the next city election," which would mean serving until the November 2013 city election.
But electing a mayor in 2013 is a violation of the city charter. It also is not a general election year.
The charter states the mayor and two commissioners are elected in even-numbered years, while three commissioners are elected in odd-numbered years.
The charter further provides that the commission appoint a person from the city electorate to serve a one-year term as commissioner to fill the vacancy created when a seated commissioner is elected as chair and then becomes the mayor.
City attorney Jim Dye said the charter is clear on how a mayor is elected when no candidate qualifies for the city election.
What's unclear is how long the interim mayor serves, and how long does the interim commissioner serve to get the election schedule back into compliance with the charter?
Dye says the next mayor will serve two years.
SueLynn said she was not asking for the job.
"I'm just considering what I would do if nominated and elected as commission chair," she said.
After deciding on a mayor, the four remaining commissioners must then appoint the interim commissioner. Once five commissioners have been sworn into office, they must then vote for a new chair and deputy chair. The commission chair serves as the deputy mayor, according to the charter, and the deputy chair becomes the chair if the chair is not in attendance or vacates his or her seat.
Who chairs the meeting where commissioners must elect a chair?
The charter states the mayor — Selby — serves until a new mayor is sworn into office. That means Selby chairs the organizational meeting and remains mayor until the commission elects a chair.
The new commission chair becomes mayor after being sworn. It is apparent that becoming the next commission chair equates to the mayor's seat.
Dye said at the June 14 commission meeting there are a few more questions for the commission to discuss regarding the election of the next mayor and the appointment of an interim commissioner, but commissioners have more than four months to make any decisions.
A spokesperson for the Florida Supervisor of Elections office said the office does not interfere with interpretation of municipal charters.
"That's up to the city attorney and the commission, and in some cases the charter review committee that proposed those changes in the charter," the spokesperson said.
Selby said a charter review is required every five years and it's time to form the next charter review committee. Former Commissioner Tom Aposporos chaired the 2002 and 2007 charter review committees.
Under the city charter, the mayor appoints the members of the committee subject to commission approval.

Oklahoma Pledges not to Abandon Troops
Lawmakers Pass Resolution, Veterans Stage Capitol Rally
Mon February 19, 2007
OKLAHOMA CITY – Crowding the Oklahoma State Capitol plaza, over a thousand veterans, lawmakers and soldier well wishers pledged their support for U.S. troops in Iraq despite the low temperatures and biting wind. The rally was organized by Vets for Victory to coincide with the Oklahoma State Legislature's passing of a resolution pledging that the state will not abandon the troops in this war.
"It's time America found its spine," said retired Army Lt. Col. Steve Russell, chairman of Vets for Victory. The unit Russell commanded in Iraq played a central role in the hunt and capture of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.
"The biggest mistakes being made in this war are on the home front, not the battlefront." Russell said. "We never thought that our own people would betray our efforts." (Read Russell's entire speech here)
The crowd, many carrying signs that read "Iraq: In It to Win It" and "We Won't Betray Our Troops," rallied a day after the Democrat-controlled U.S. House passed a nonbinding resolution opposing President Bush's plan to send an additional 21,500 troops to Iraq.
"To come home to a patriotic rally after the week I've had in Washington, D.C. is refreshing," declared US Rep. Mary Fallin, R-Okla. in remarks to the rally. Fallin, who voted against the resolution said the resolution "sends a strong signal of weakness" to our enemies.
"Failure of the U.S. in the war on terror is not an option." Fallin said.
"Congress can play an unintended role in losing wars."
Russell said the soldier's view of resolution "is like someone coming up to you at work, slugging you in the gut and saying, " Oh, that was not meant for you. I like you. That was meant for your boss."
"If this is the kind of support that opponents of our efforts overseas offer, we reject it. We despise it." Russell said, drawing shouts of approval from the crowd.
"Mistakes that are based on the 'safety-first' and 'peace at any cost' principle—mistakes of turning away from our enemies; these deserve our highest rebuke and acid consideration." Russell said.
The rally featured music from the Norman North High School Jazz Ensemble and speeches by veterans of the war in Iraq with moving personal stories. Kevin Pannell of Dierks, Ark., who lost both of his legs in a grenade ambush while serving as an infantry soldier in Iraq in 2004, told the crowd that lack of support by the nation's leaders has a negative impact on the troops.
"This is a war that cannot be won? -- what kind of message is that?" Pannell said. "This can be a morale killer."
"People have told me I 'lost' my leg in Iraq," said Ed Pulido of Oklahoma City, another veteran who was severely wounded in a roadside bomb ambush. "I didn't 'lose' anything. I 'sacrificed' my leg defending my country." said Pulido to rousing applause. "And I would do it again."
"The message being sent by our Congress is clear. If you bloody us enough, if you kill enough of our soldiers, we will quit-- just like we did in Vietnam." said John Reitzell of Huntsville, Alabama, a wounded veteran of Vietnam, Lebanon and Somalia.
Rep. Rex Duncan, R-Sand Springs who served in Iraq and Afghanistan capped the event by reading the Oklahoma Concurrent Resolution 8, which was passed by unanimous consent in both the senate and house. The bi-partisan resolution was sponsored by Afghanistan veteran and State Sen. Tom Ivestor, D-Elk City, and Gulf War and Ranger veteran State Rep. Paul Wesselhoft, R-Moore.
The Oklahoma resolution declared, "the Oklahoma State Legislature on behalf of the people of Oklahoma is on record that we will not abandon our service men and women in this time of war and pledges full support to them and their efforts to secure victory."
The rally was peaceful with only a few counter-protestors showing up with two signs saying "Veterans for Peace." The individuals were removed by the Capitol Police.
Also among the crowd were veterans with banners and flags flapping in a brisk north wind that memorialized the conflicts they were from Vietnam to Operation Iraqi Freedom.
"We're just here to support the troops -- and the mission," said Larry Stewart, an Oklahoma Air National Guard veteran. Vets for Victory plans more rallies across the nation that Stewart said will draw enthusiastic support.
"The silent majority is still out there," he said.
"There are millions of Americans who feel like we do." Russell said. "It is time our voices are heard."
800 rally to support soldiers
Criticizing the war efforts aids terrorists, say veterans, speakers
Sun February 18, 2007
By John David Sutter
Staff Writer, The Sunday Oklahoman
Nearly 800 people crowded near the steps of the Oklahoma Capitol on Saturday morning to show their support for America's troops and to insist the war in Iraq is winnable.
The rally came a day after the U.S House of Representatives passed a formal rebuke of President Bush's plan to send more troops to the unpopular war in Iraq, where more than 3,100 U.S. troops have died.
Saturday's speakers assailed that resolution and said troops in Iraq need firm support at home. Support, they said, means fighting until the war is won. Criticizing the war effort lends support to terrorists, several said.
"Today we are telling the United States of America if they have lost sight of what our duty is — to support our troops in a time of war — then they can look to Oklahoma for an example," said retired Army Lt. Col. Steve Russell, who returned from Iraq in September.
'Enemy is watching'
Speakers and members of the audience said terrorism likely will come to U.S. soil if the country pulls out of Iraq soon. Russell reminded the audience of the lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001, and in 1995 during the Oklahoma City Bombing, an act of domestic terrorism.
"Oklahoma has been touched by domestic terrorism. We understand the costs and consequences if we choose to lose this war," he said.
U.S. Rep. Mary Fallin, R-Oklahoma City, told the crowd the "enemy is watching" how Americans are reacting to the war.
"We do believe in victory," she said, "and we will not abandon you (the troops)."
Fallin voted against the U.S. House resolution that rejects Bush's plan to send 21,000 more troops to Iraq. Oklahoma's other Republican representatives also voted against the measure. Rep. Dan Boren, D-Muskogee, voted for the nonbinding rebuke.
Underlying the rally was the idea that victory in Iraq is sure, as long as Americans support the war morally and financially.
"Has America ever come across a war that couldn't be won?" asked Kevin Pannell, another speaker at the protest who lost both of his legs fighting in Iraq.
"No!" the crowd shouted back.
"Exactly," Pannell said.
Some criticized public opinion polls that show many Americans are critical of the war and want to bring troops home.
They said such views are short-sighted and don't account for possible consequences of pulling troops out.
Among them was Mike Elder, whose 22-year-old son is a Marine being sent back to Iraq.
"We have a fast-paced society and everything has to be done quickly," Elder said, "and if we're going to keep terror off of our shores, it's going to be a long struggle — but it's worth it."
Taking a stand
Russell, the rally's organizer, put the war in black-and-white terms. (Read Russell's entire speech here)
It is right to press on to victory, he said, and wrong not to, regardless of what most people think.
"Surveys and opinion polls obscure ... what is right," he said.
Russell later added, "We must never be apologetic for taking a stand against evil."
Supporters held American flags that flapped in a bitterly cold wind on the sunny morning. They carried signs with slogans such as, "Americans are not losers" and "We will not betray our troops."
Many war veterans were in attendance, along with several motorcycle groups and a busload of people from a southern Baptist church.
Most signs offered support for U.S. troops. But others criticized those who might propose a withdrawal from Iraq.
Legislature shows troop support
Rally scheduled Saturday morning on the steps of the state Capitol
Fri February 16, 2007
By John Greiner
Capitol Bureau, The Daily Oklahoman
The Oklahoma Senate and House passed a resolution Thursday supporting America's military men and women.
Senate Concurrent Resolution 8 was authored by Sen. Tom Ivester, D-Elk City, a combat veteran who served in Afghanistan, and Rep. Paul Wesselhoft, R-Moore, who served as an Army chaplain.
"It's important that the state of Oklahoma stands behind the troops," Ivester said.
Wesselhoft said he wants to be sure today's military personnel will be acknowledged when they return from the combat zones.
The resolution also designates Saturday as Vets for Victory Day in Oklahoma.
The organization Vets for Victory is holding a rally at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at the south steps of the state Capitol to show support for American troops.
Retired Lt. Col. Steve Russell, who was involved in the hunt and capture of former Iraqi ruler Saddam Hussein, is a rally organizer.
He said Oklahomans must let soldiers know that their state is behind them.

I think Karen Carrol said it best when she said, " I can not think of any element that pulls the total look of an interior together, more than art"; and I have to agree with her. My love affair with art started when I was young, but I grew to have a deeper appreciation for it when I started doing interior design.
Just like interior design, art comes in many forms. Furniture, jewelry, paintings, sculpture, pottery, and many other items can be considered art. Creativity is something to be celebrated, and enjoyed. Art is just that, a celebration of creativity! Art possesses you, captivates you, and cultivates your emotion and curiosity. Whether you are a connoisseur or an amateur, it is all about how it makes you feel. Like this brooch below, well this thing just makes me dizzy!

Terry Slaughter, from Gallery Terrence Denley, believes that creativity and beautiful design can only improve the human condition. I cannot agree more with this statement. The next time you find yourself in the mix of redesigning, or designing a space, don't forget the art!

"Play it Again": a new method for testing metacognition in animals
- 496 Downloads
- Citations
Putative metacognition data in animals may be explained by non-metacognition models (e.g., stimulus generalization). The primary objective of the present study was to develop a new method for testing metacognition in animals that may yield data that can be explained by metacognition but not by non-metacognition models. Next, we used the new method with rats. Rats were first presented with a brief noise duration which they would subsequently classify as short or long. Rats were sometimes forced to take an immediate duration test, forced to repeat the same duration, or had the choice to take the test or repeat the duration. Metacognition, but not an alternative non-metacognition model, predicts that accuracy on difficult durations is higher when subjects are forced to repeat the stimulus compared to trials in which the subject chose to repeat the stimulus, a pattern observed in our data. Simulation of a non-metacognition model suggests that this part of the data from rats is consistent with metacognition, but other aspects of the data are not consistent with metacognition. The current results call into question previous findings suggesting that rats have metacognitive abilities. Although a mixed pattern of data does not support metacognition in rats, we believe the introduction of the method may be valuable for testing with other species to help evaluate the comparative case for metacognition.

Liberalism can refer to a number of political philosophies. In this article the American political platform referred to as "liberal" within the United States is contrasted with other meanings of the word, particularly in Europe and in other parliamentary democratic systems.
United States
In the U.S. the word liberal is usually used to describe the platform espoused by the Democratic Party, that is, support of social welfare systems, redistribution of wealth, and government regulation of the economy - combined with a certain brand of individual libertarianism, emphasizing social equality, and (to a certain extent) rejection of traditional Judeo-Christian standards of morality as a proper foundation for law.
The economic aspects of this ideology are to a large extent a product of the New Deal policies of the Great Depression era, as well as Lyndon B. Johnson's "Great Society." The Democratic Party's idea of social liberty and equality, though, came much later, partly as a result of the counterculture movement of the late 20th century. It continues to be fueled by various youth movements and the interests of numerous special interest groups.
Europe and elsewhere
In Europe, liberalism refers to a political position that leans toward greater individual liberties and less government intervention in general. In short, this is the philosophy commonly referred to in the United States as libertarianism. In Europe and elsewhere, then, the opposite of liberalism is not conservatism, but authoritarianism.
Because of this, the terms "conservative liberalism" and "liberal conservatism", which are seen as contradictory in the U.S., are not so in Europe. "Conservative liberalism" simply refers to a less radical libertarian philosophy, and is often referred to as "law-and-order liberalism." Liberal conservatism is simply a variant of conservatism willing to allow for individual liberties, and, in a way, describes the ideology of the American Republican Party.

The Art of Oboe Playing is actually two books in one -- one part by Robert Sprenkle on playing the oboe, and another part by David Ledet on reed-making. Sprenkle was the renowned teacher of some of the finest oboists, among them Robert Bloom of the Rochester Philharmonic. Ledet has an exceptionally broad professional background, including assistant band director, teacher of oboe and theory, and administrator.A different instrument, a change of climate, a change of embouchure, a change of aural concept, or varying playing situations could result in a desirable variation of gouge. ... to the equality of radius both around and lengthways of the tube; the edges are pared and chopped to length in the guillotine. ...

The 1985 Broward County Ninth District American Legion season won`t start until Saturday night at Pompano Beach Municipal Stadium, but the four league teams already have an idea of what to expect.
``I know it`s going to be another good year for the league,`` said Pompano Beach Post 142 coach John Keefe. ``We got to look at each other last week during our annual preseason tournament, and that`s going to help.
``There were a lot of good plays and a lot of bad ones, but that`s to be expected this early in the season. On Saturday, we`ll get down to business.``
Pompano Beach defeated Margate Post 157 11-5 at Municipal Stadium to win its second tournament championship in three years. It was Keefe`s first competition in a Post 142 uniform; he coached Margate the past three seasons.
``We noticed that the fan support was really good. That`s encouraging,`` he said. ``We had about 150 in attendance each of the three nights. Overall, each of the teams played well.``
The four district teams will play 24 regular-season games each. Miramar Post 253 and Hollywood Hills Post 92 are the other two district teams.
``I think the competition level this year will be at an all-time high,`` said Wilson Irizarry, the Hollywood Hills coach. ``I expect that Pompano Beach will have the best pitching of any team, but we`ll have a lot of top hitting talent this year that will keep us close.``
During the tournament, Pompano Beach beat Miramar 7-3 in the first game and Hollywood Hills 10-4 in the second. Margate lost 4-0 to Hollywood Hills but beat Miramar 10-6 the second day.

Kidnapping villagers who have traveled to Beijing to lodge complaints with China's central government and keeping them in unofficial jails to silence them has evolved into a lucrative cottage industry that police refuse to crack down on, a human rights group said Thursday.
The report by New York-based Human Rights Watch on China's "black jails" is based mainly on interviews with 38 people who said they were nabbed by thugs while trying to bring grievances to the central government. They reported being held for days or months in makeshift detention centers, deprived of food and sleep, beaten and threatened. Police allegedly aided the captors or refused to intervene in several cases, it said.
Black jails emerged in China about six years ago after police were barred from randomly detaining vagrants. The jails, usually makeshift lockups in hostels, apartment buildings or abandoned factories, have been well-documented by human rights groups, lawyers and the international media.
However, Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang rejected the Human Rights Watch study and questioned why it was released.
"I don't know what their motivation was," he said at a regular news conference Thursday. "I can assure you there are no so-called black jails in China. We put people first, and we are an administration for the people."
The report sheds new light on the economics of the jails and why they evade crackdowns despite violating Chinese and international law.
It blames a civil service evaluation system that uses a point system to penalize officials if too many people from their jurisdiction complain to the central government and rewards those who are able to minimize grievances. Because bonuses and promotions are linked to evaluations, it is economical for officials to pay people to intercept, detain and intimidate petitioners, it said.
The report cites an alleged internal government directive given to authorities in Shimen, a county in south China's Hunan province, in 2007 that says officials get two points if they bring petitioners back from Beijing or the provincial capital of Changsha, while those who fail to do so have a half-point deducted.
Officials typically pay black jails between 150 yuan ($22) to 300 yuan ($44) per day to hold petitioners until they can be picked up and returned home, the report said. It estimated that Beijing's black jails detain up to 10,000 people each year, though that number includes some people who are detained on multiple occasions.
Police in Beijing and other cities are aware of the jails but ignore them because they keep potentially troublesome petitioners away from cities, Human Rights Watch said. In some cases, police also have "directly assisted black jail operators," it said.
"It's completely illegal, but the national authorities have done nothing to stop it so far," said Andrew Nathan, an expert on Chinese human rights issues who was not involved with the report.
"At the same time, though, this informal system cuts against the ability of the central authorities to learn about what's going wrong at the local level," said Nathan, a political science professor at Columbia University in New York. "In the long run, it would be smarter for Beijing to let the petitioners exercise what are after all their legal rights."

"I love Chicken Chow Mein and have found that each restaurant has it's own take on the recipe. Therefore, I have tried to compile my own favorite. This was originally from the Food Network Kitchens but it is now from Diane's Kitchen.;) Don't let the long laundry list frighten you, you have to get it all ready before hand and then it's a breeze! Most of the ingredients are seasonings and items you find in your pantry. Update: 05/04/2009 - sorry but I made this over the weekend again and I tweaked it even more - I used 3 scallions instead of 1, crushed red pepper flakes - it needed a bit of a zing - used 6 ounces of button mushrooms instead of 4. Of course we have to be careful with the dark soy sauce, I use low-sodium Tamari (the flavor is much smoother) also, it is not as salty as the other - at least I think so!!"

Another milestone for Roger Federer as he reaches Australian Open fourth round
Roger Federer became the first man in history to win 300 grand slam matches as the Swiss beat Grigor Dimitrov to reach the Australian Open fourth round.
Dimitrov was once dubbed Federer's apprentice for his talent and elegant style of play but it was the 34-year-old who proved himself the master on Rod Laver Arena, winning 6-4 3-6 6-1 6-4.
Federer was far from his free-flowing best and even looked flustered when Dimitrov clinched the second set but an early break in the third quickly turned the tide.
Roger Federer has won the Australian Open on four occasions
It was one-way traffic thereafter as Federer sealed victory in two hours and 40 minutes to set up a fourth-round meeting with Belgium's David Goffin.
"Today didn't come automatically, I had to push myself, remind myself what to do," Federer said.
"These are the great matches to win, I tell you that, because you're not going to feel 100 per cent great every single time when you go out there.
"But it's important to win those matches maybe where you felt a little off almost sometimes."
Federer and Dimitrov are good friends off the court and a video quickly circulated on the internet of the pair before the match, relaxing together as they waited to go on.
They were watching Maria Sharapova playing American Lauren Davis and one rally particularly excited Federer, who yelled and leapt out of his seat.
"We know each other quite well and we were pretty chilled going into the match," Federer said.
"Sometimes you don't look much at the other guy but with Grigor it's different, like with other guys on tour. There are many guys I would speak to before a match. That was the situation today.
"I'm happy it still exists. We're not that far down the road where it's so professional where you can't even look at the guy before you walk on court."
Federer's 300 grand slam wins include 17 major successes, while he has reached 27 finals and 38 semi-finals. This year's Australian Open is his 65th consecutive appearance at a major tournament.
"It's very exciting, I must tell you," Federer said.
"Like when I reached 1,000 (career wins) last year, it was a big deal for me. It's not something I ever aimed for or looked for, but when it happens, it's very special.
"You look deeper into it, I guess, where it's all happened and how, so it's very nice. I'm very happy."

Davis says Kentucky is 'built for this'
Freshman enjoys big stage, makes plays as game is on the line
NEW ORLEANS -- Anthony Davis made every shot he needed to hit and collected nearly every loose ball that was his for the taking. He glided up and down the floor, nimble enough to be a 6-foot-9 point guard, if only John Calipari would have asked.
On the biggest stage of his young career it took the best player in college basketball nearly 30 minutes until he gave Calipari a soft-spoken request. The freshman sensation called for the ball down low with a NCAA title game berth on the line and delivered in a way that only he could.
Davis' 18-point, 14-rebound performance was exactly what Kentucky needed when the Wildcats weren't particularly sharp. The leading single-season shot blocker in Kentucky history added five more, and his one-handed dunk with 1:08 to play sealed the Wildcats' 69-61 victory against rival Louisville.
"I just kept going, kind of like in Space Jam," Davis said to freshman teammate Marquis Teague as the two shared a light-hearted postgame moment on the back of a golf cart outside the locker room.
The Wildcats (37-2) will meet the Kansas Jayhawks Monday night in a championship game between the winningest programs in college basketball history. Beneath the stands, away from the jubilation and the student section that repeatedly bowed in his direction, Davis acted as if the semifinal was just another game.
He was giddy talking with his teammates about what was said during huddles, and laughed about shots his teammates forced and the way Calipari would give them an earful during a timeout.
There was nothing fictitious about the consistently high level Davis continues to achieve. Kentucky is one win away from claiming an eighth national championship, a title that was expected to be theirs since well before the beginning of March. Davis wouldn't make any guarantees about cutting down the net Monday night, but as the final buzzer sounded he threw the ball in the air and soaked in the moment.
"I said, 'This is my stage. We're from Kentucky. We're built for this,' " Davis recalled in the interview area. Calipari turned his head, startled by a rare bold statement by his soft-spoken center.
"We go hard in practice," Davis said. "We go out there to have fun. The emotions, I'm just glad to be here and in the national championship."
Calling for the ball and making a bold statement is something that would be expected on a daily basis by someone with national player of the year status. While it was rare that Davis did so, his consistent play throughout the season leaves few questions in opponents' minds.
"Anthony Davis is the No.1 player picked in the draft," Louisville coach Rick Pitino said. "When you're playing against Bill Russell at the pro level, you realize why the Celtics won 11 World Championships. When you see this young man at the collegiate level, you realize why they're so good."
Cardinals center Gorgui Dieng couldn't maintain inside position on Davis or get a hand on the freshman's shots. The matchup that was supposed to be the decisive factor in the game took nearly a half to play out.
Teague took advantage of Dieng's struggle with Davis, and drove through the open lane for several layups. Davis then started calling for the ball. Even so, he attempted just eight shots, a number that left Calipari pleased with his team's balanced attack. Davis made seven of his attempts.
"The greatest thing about him is his teammates make him better and he makes his teammates better," Calipari said. "It was kind of like how he's played all year. ... He defers to his team."

Fighting erupted several times at an ice hockey match in Slovakia and both goalkeepers were sent off after staging their own boxing tournament in the middle of the ice.
Banska Bystrica were playing at home to Poprad on Tuesday in a game full of incident when goalie, Robert Slipcenko, was hit on the mask and dropped to the ground, prompting players to attack each other again.
Slipcenko quickly recovered and he and Poprad goalkeeper Dusan Sidor ended up throwing punches as others watched.
Both goalkeepers were sent off and Poprad won 4-3.
