STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) - Even the biggest - and richest - Oklahoma State fan couldn't get overly excited about this victory.
Before the 19th-ranked Cowboys kicked off their season with a ridiculous 84-0 victory against Savannah State on Saturday night, billionaire booster Boone Pickens said he wanted to see Oklahoma State put together a tougher nonconference schedule.
"I just think we can do better," he said. "Notre Dame's already booked but I'd just as soon play Notre Dame. Everybody wants to play Notre Dame."
To call what the Tigers provided for Oklahoma State a tune-up is probably an overstatement.
"I'm just glad the kids went out and played hard," coach Mike Gundy said after the team's most lopsided win since 1916.
"We play the games that are scheduled and go on down the road."
Freshman Wes Lunt completed all 11 of his passes in a brief first outing as the new starting quarterback for Oklahoma State.
Lunt and many of the other starters didn't even make it to the end of the first quarter before getting pulled out of respect for a lower division team that had won only one game each of the previous two seasons.
Gundy wanted no part of discussing the pros and cons of choosing to play a team that had gone 4-72 against competition from the Football Championship Subdivision - that's a level below Oklahoma State's Football Bowl Subdivision, with fewer scholarships and resources.
Savannah State (0-1) got a $385,000 payout for its first game against an FBS opponent, and coach Steve Davenport wasn't sure afterward if even that made it worthwhile.
"We're going to have to readdress that. You get paid for certain things, but I don't know if at the end of the day, some things are worth the payments you get. But we'll see. Those are conversations we'll have.
"But we've got to get better and be more competitive to do these kind of things and play these games. But it's a process for us and we're really in the early stages of rebuilding this program."
Not much will change though before the Tigers play at No. 7 Florida State next week.
This one was over almost as soon as it started. Oklahoma State scored on its first five possessions to take a 35-0 lead late in the first quarter, needing no more than 90 seconds on any of the scoring drives.
In a flash, the starters were replaced by backups and - when the points kept piling up - third, fourth and fifth-teamers were on the field.
"Of course we would have liked to play a little longer, but that's just part of the nature of the situation tonight," said Joseph Randle, who ran for 107 yards on just six carries, with TD runs from 2 and 40 yards.
Asked if he'd rather be playing in a marquee game like the ones involving Alabama and Michigan or Clemson and Auburn on Saturday night, Randle started out saying: "I would rather play in a real" before catching himself and saying "next question."
Pickens, who has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to overhaul the stadium and the entire football program, said he'd had close to a hundred requests to use his suite at the Alabama-Michigan game at Dallas Cowboys Stadium.
He was fired up about that game, even though he was attending his alma mater's opener.
"I want to upgrade the nonconference schedule," Pickens said beforehand. "Am I excited about opening the season? Yes, of course. ... I don't want to say anything that would hurt our opponent's feelings or anything. I just want to play a stronger nonconference schedule."
Gundy said earlier in the week that he wants to "play the three easiest teams we can play and then play conference." He wouldn't say if he'd do it again.
This game came about as part of schedule shuffling brought on by conference realignment last year, but the Cowboys weren't looking for a marquee opponent.
"I don't want to comment on anything on Savannah State, out of respect to them," Gundy said. "I don't think it's fair for me to comment on them. The game was scheduled and we played it and it's irrelevant.
"I want to talk about things that are important, which are our team and the future and the schedule from this point on, not necessarily anything related directly to them."
Desmond Roland added 104 yards rushing and three TDs, and Jeremy Smith also ran for three scores as Oklahoma State broke the school record with nine rushing touchdowns - two more than in a 54-0 victory against UTEP in 1977 but still three shy of the NCAA record.
Corey Bennett provided the final score on a 10-yard TD run with 1:20 remaining.
"We was just running the ball. It wasn't like we was trying to run up the score," Randle said. "I don't know what to say about it."
After the opening quarter, the Cowboys took it relatively easy by using a slew of reserves from far down the depth chart. By the end of the third quarter, 94 different Oklahoma State players had taken the field.
There were 10 new starters on a team that lost stars Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon to the first round of the NFL draft after finishing last season ranked No. 3.
It ended up as the most lopsided victory for OSU since a 117-0 rout of Southwestern Oklahoma in 1916 and Savannah State's worst loss since a 98-0 defeat against Bethune-Cookman in 1953, a season when the Tigers were outscored 444-6.
Lunt threw for 129 yards while playing only four offensive series, the only tuneup the freshman will get before a road trip to Arizona next week.
Not among the dozens of Oklahoma State players who participated was top returning receiver Tracy Moore, who was suspended one game after getting his third citation from police over a six-month span just over a week ago.

Sometimes, Thanksgiving gets a bum rap.
I'm not a global sociologist but I doubt there are many other holidays celebrated across the world where food is such a focus.
A lot of cultures have foods that are associated with a holiday but I would guess there aren't many in which the meal is the centerpiece of activity.
It truly does take an entire community to educate a child. That point was never made clearer than at Owen County High School's KCCT Recognition Ceremony on Nov. 18 where more than 100 students were recognized for high academic achievement.
It is at this ceremony where over 70 proud guests (parents, grandparents, and other family members) were present to share in this special event.
Early Sunday morning (Nov. 15), a vehicle crashed through a phone pole and ran through my yard.
Thankfully no one was seriously injured.
This is not the first time this has happened and it is dangerous.
I called and asked for a guard rail to be put up earlier this year and have not had any response.
If my children had been outside playing when this happened, they could have been injured or killed.
I am asking for a guard rail to please be put up. My address is 329 West Seminary Street.
Thanksgiving is full of traditions. There is turkey, dressing, football, uncles asleep in recliners, indigestion, and oh yeah, pumpkin pie.
I have also begun another Thanksgiving tradition. In case you have not caught on, this is now my third installment of the Golden Gobble Awards celebrating the biggest turkeys in sports for the past year. Well, not exactly celebrating but rather ridiculing and maybe even making fun of.
The Golden Gobble for Team That Resembles an NFL Franchise goes to the Cincinnati Bengals.
It's Margaret A. (Kasner) Murphy again.
My thanks and appreciation to the Kentucky American Water Pumping Station II at "Hardin's Landing" for our invitation to share in this very special celebration. More water to the people.
Lela M. Karsner Hawkins, 93, Margaret A. (Karsner) Murphy, 91, and Christina Rice all are included with the Hardin cousins.
Thanks to our friend Bro. David Wotier for remembering us on this day.
On Nov. 11, 2010 I had the privilege to address the students at Owen County High School about the importance of Veterans Day. Also in attendance were several Veterans and family members as well as many Owen County faculty and staff. Before the assembly, the Veterans and their family members were treated to a very delicious meal and a tour of the facility if they so desired.
Have you noticed how Black Friday is becoming a bigger deal each year?
Back 10 or 12 years ago when big retailers started opening up before the break of dawn to offer special deals the day after Thanksgiving, it wasn't really that big of a deal. I had no interest in going out in what I would call the middle of the night to go shopping, and I had a hard time imagining who would.
Part of the job for any good reporter is going out and finding out what other people think, and I had my eyes opened on my first Black Friday in Corbin.
I wanted to publicly say thank you to Ms. Wallace and her staff for honoring the veterans this past week in such a memorable and touching way.
Since serving in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War in the 1950s, this is the first time someone has said, "Thank you for your service to this country."

Last Saturday night I read at Crush Bar w/ 11 other writers. It was wonderful. Gigi Little wrote about the night here. I read the essay, "My Mother Wanted To Be Betty Boop." Lidia Yuknavitch mooned the crowd. Seriously! How I love her.
This Thursday I'm going to the book release party for my friend Michael Heald's book: Goodbye To The Nervous Apprehension. Read an excerpt from the book here on Vol 1 Brooklyn and support small press by buying the book through Michael's press: Perfect Day Publishing.
Also reading: Forming by (my BFF) Sean H. Doyle. Sean has been one of my fave writers since I began seriously writing. He helps me keep going.
There are times when I am completely overwhelmed recognizing the vast and unbelievable number of people there are in the world and how each one of us has something inside or outside of us that is familiar and alien to one another.
Stephen Elliot (Founder of The Rumpus) is doing a kickstarter to make a movie out of his novel Happy Baby. Lots of sweet incentives including a box of signed books by Cheryl Strayed, Dave Eggers, David Byrne, Nick Hornby, Elizabeth Gilbert, and me. No clue how I got included in that. (One of these things is not like the other…). Go here to donate.
Thought Catalog is distributing my (new) essay called The New Age Camp as a digital book for your tablet, eReader or mobile device. All titles are available through Amazon and the iBookstore.
It will be available soon here. I hope you'll enjoy it! It took me forever to write.
More soon! Love you all.

Skyforce Top Choice Chooses China
The NBA is the ultimate achievement for the professional basketball player. If that plan falls through, then getting a lucrative contract comes next. Quincy Douby most likely still has NBA aspirations, but he will earn a pretty penny playing for the Shanghai Sharks in China.
The guard from Rutgers and former first round draft choice of the Sacramento Kings left the Sioux Falls Skyforce on Sunday after being courted by the Chinese Basketball League. He played for Zhejiang last year and scored 75 points in a single game back in January. Douby had previously landed a salary of $2 million in China, so most likely the offer to return to the Far East was in that range.
Douby is following a familiar route. Guard Donald Sloan left Sioux Falls for Guangdong in China during the second half of last season. Sloan helped the Southern Tigers win the CBL title and parlayed that into a role with the Indiana Pacers this season.
Will the move work the same way for Douby? It's doubtful unless he can gain more confidence in administering the offense. According to Ira Winderman of the Sun-Sentinel newspaper, the Heat wanted Douby to "develop a comfort level" at point guard. By doing so would increase potential of getting a call-up to the NBA.
In the brief time that he was with the Skyforce, Douby was a catalyst on both offense and defense. He poured in 41 points and grabbed 9 steals in the two games against Reno. Fortunately the 'Force have enough talent in place to withstand the blow of losing Douby. In 2010, Cheikh Samb was the Skyforce top draft choice and pulled a no-show. That season eventually spun out of control and became the team's worst all-time.
The post-Douby Skyforce era will resume with a couple of games on Friday and Saturday against the Iowa Energy. As of late Wednesday the team's active roster stood at nine players.

From Left Field
By BOB SHRALUKA
"It just makes no sense," an obviously bothered Fire Chief Les Marckel said, "We have more training than ever and we take a more aggressive approach (to fire safety), and yet this happens."
Marckel was speaking after this week's death of Dean Ingmire in a home fire.
Decatur didn't have a death as the result of a home fire for years and years. No one is sure when the last one occurred prior to October of 2009. Jan Smith, whom Marckel succeeded as chief, had no home fire fatalities in his 16 years as chief.
Yet despite the huge increase in training and the strong approach to fire safety taken by the fire department in recent years, five people have now lost their lives in four home fires in the past 26 months in the department's coverage area, since October of 2009.
"You just can't figure it out," the chief said.
Firefighters, by their nature, are upset by any loss of life — as are most of the people who work in the emergency response field. But this one struck home deeper than usual. Having spent 16 years as a city police reserve and 14 years as a dispatcher, Ingmire was well known and highly respected in the emergency response field.
Dean was a straight arrow, or as Police Chief Ken Ketzler said, "pro-police, straight forward." That doesn't mean, though, that he was hard and cold. He was a willing friend — even mentor — to others in his field, which earned for him the wide respect in which he was held.
Getting government where?
Politicians, in particular Republicans, like to wax poetic about getting the government out of our lives. Free at last, free at last, thank God Almighty we're free at last from the nasty government, so many of them like to say.
And then they go back to their ornate buildings and figure ways to project the government more deeply into our lives.
Take Indiana, where one lawmaker wants to make welfare recipients undergo a drug test, leading us to believe they're all smoking weed and snorting coke. The same lawmaker is also proposing that the Indiana High School Athletic Association (IHSAA) be forced to bring back one-class basketball after well over 10 years.
Hey, how about peach baskets and two-hand set shots, too?
Then there is the gun thing, wherein the General Assembly got the government out of our lives by telling us we can't make our own gun laws. The legislators passed a law — it took effect July 1 — which prohibits local ordinances that ban firearms from most locations, such as libraries and parks. It exempts schools, public hospitals, buildings that house courts and, of course, the Statehouse. (Keep yourselves safe, folks.)
So if one wishes to pack a piece in the library in Decatur, there's no way Decatur City Council can prevent it.
And it just keeps getting better. Republican state Sen. Vaneta Becker of Evansville has filed a bill which would require performers — whether amateur or professional — to sign a contract agreeing to follow the guidelines for singing the National Anthem. It also would set a $25 fine for violators.
Becker told The Indianapolis Star that the proposal isn't aimed at off-key singers, only those who make intentional changes. This all came about, Becker said, after she got a complaint about a school program in which the anthem's words were substituted or parodied in a way the caller found disrespectful.
Now there's a good reason to write a state law: one complaint.
And here's the kicker: the bill would force schools to maintain audio recordings of all performances for two years and develop a procedure for dealing with complaints about someone straying from the approved lyrical or musical guidelines.
That's surely what we desperately need: more mandates for the schools. Every time someone sings the anthem, the school would have to have someone else there to record it. Then find a place to keep all the recordings for two years. And don't forget to set up a policy for dealing with any complaints; 40 or 50 pages, no doubt, and in triplicate.
All because of one complaint one lawmaker received.
Ain't it good to have the government off our backs!

Ariya Jutanugarn wins by 3 in Morocco
Agadir, Morocco – Ariya Jutanugarn closed with her third straight 4-under 67 on Sunday to earn a 3-stroke win at the Lalla Meryem Cup.
Jutanugarn finished at 14-under-par 270 to earn her first Ladies European Tour title. This is her rookie season on tour, and she had started the year with a share of second at the season's first event in Australia.
She was on fire from the start. Jutanugarn birdied the first three holes to jump to 13-under. She birdied the seventh at Golf de l'Ocean, but gave that stroke back with a bogey on the par-3 ninth.
Jutanugarn carded back-to-back birdies at 10 and 11 and was alone in the lead at 15-under. She tripped to a double-bogey at the par-5 15th, but birdied the 17th to end at minus-14.
Beth Allen had four birdies and a bogey in her round of 3-under 68. She shared second with third-round leader Charley Hull at minus-11. Hull had an even-par round of 71 with two bogeys on the front nine and two birdies on the back nine.
Katie Burnett posted a 2-under 69 to grab fourth place at 10-under-par 274.

I also really like the fact that we have two very small bedrooms, which allows us the luxury of having a separate office, so our bedroom can be a relaxing retreat.
- Biggest Challenge of Living in a Small Space:
- My husband and I got married six months ago and moved in together, and we both have strong design ideas, albeit different ones. It was a bit of a challenge coming up with a cohesive design that we both loved and felt at home in, but I think we're slowly getting there. We are also both people with hobbies that involve a lot of stuff (sewing and other crafts, terrarium building, sculpture casting, lots and lots of tools, musical instruments, etc), so figuring out how to fit all that into our space can be a bit tetris-like at times. We've set up zones in our house and backyard (i.e. my crafting corner and designated shelves for terrariums in the office) so our stuff is organized somewhat by hobby, which has helped quite a bit.

Most of the educational documents related to PS Core Network start with Call Flows. Attach Call Flow, PDP Context, Paging, etc. Basically that was my problem when I started working in PS Core because the Call Flows include a lot of messages which in turn include a lot of parameters and Information Elements so starting with the Call Flows without knowing at least the Identifiers included in these messages is not the best approach to understand PS Core principles.
This is why this article will be all about the MBB terms that are commonly presented in all Call flows and in most of the MBB talks in general. Once one is comfortable with that, the Call flows will be easy to interpret.
I am bringing some for clarification.

Throwback Fight of the Day: Thiago Silva Wrecks Keith Jardine at UFC 102 Without Breaking a Sweat
(Pikeew pikeew! I got you! Nu-uh! I totally got you first!)
In the past three years, Thiago Silva has been knocked out by Lyoto Machida, out-grappled by Rashad Evans, suspended from the UFC for attempting to mask his roid-filled urine after his fight with Brandon Vera, and out struck by Alexander Gustafsson. Needless to say, Silva is probably going to get axed if he doesn't win big against Stanislav Nedkov at the pair's upcoming duel at UFC on FUEL 6. The undefeated Nedkov has also spent more time on the shelf than off lately, battling injuries and visa issues for the better part of his two-year UFC career, but barring any last minute issues, these two will clash on November 10th in Cotai, Macau. And based on their finishing ratios, we're fairly certain that this one will end inside of three rounds.
So in honor of the occasion, we've dug up Silva's last official victory — which came over Keith Jardine via knockout (I know, you're shocked too) at UFC 102 in August of 2009 — and placed it after the jump for your enjoyment. Because it is Halloween after all, and who won't sleep better knowing that the scary monster in your closet can easily be felled with a solid left hook?Read More DIGG THIS

Kat Von D is engaged to Deadmau5, and the two did it the new-fashioned way: on Twitter.
"I can't wait for Christmas so.... Katherine Von Drachenberg, will you marry me? @thekatvond" electronic-music producer and DJ Deadmau5 — real name Joel Zimmerman — tweeted on Saturday, including a picture of a ring, seen above.
Apparently the answer was yes, as the 30-year-old tattoo artist and reality TV personality followed up with a multitude of exclamation points, then this:
"Mi corazon!!! Thank you all for the lovely congratulations! Please excuse me while I go squeeze the hell out of my fiancé!"

Manufacturers in the Mid-Atlantic region saw their operations disrupted by Hurricane Sandy, and though they expect business to pick up over the next six months, their expectations for hiring and capital spending have weakened, according to the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia.
"Nearly 32 percent of firms reported declines in activity this month," compared with 21 percent reporting increases, the Fed said in its November 2012 Business Outlook Survey, released today. The report summarizes manufacturers' indications of current conditions and expectations for the next six months.
The Fed called its six-month outlook "mixed." Forty-three percent of firms expected their activity to increase, compared with 23 percent expecting decreases, but firms' expectations regarding hiring and capital spending have "shown weakness," the agency said.
A large number of businesses reported reduced activity due to Hurricane Sandy, with nearly four in 10 saying they were "shut down or severely crippled" for two days or more.
The survey covers manufacturers in the Third Federal Reserve District, which consists of eastern and Central Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey and all of Delaware.

Given the changes in how we use technology, especially the rise of tablets and mobile devices, what is the role of a website front page?
As we go in to re-developing our front page I'm wondering what is the role of the page, given the current trends towards ever increasing use of mobile devices and tablets? Do we even need a front page (or website for that matter) anymore and, if so, what does it need to do?
We have identified three things we think our front page needs to highlight:
At the moment we are looking at a range of other front pages to see best practice; consulting with internal stakeholders and talking to our users – some preliminary results from interviews are here, and from stats logs here.
We'll keep you posted on our progress. Meantime, am curious to know - what do you think is the role of a website front page??
This from @sebchan: "i think you need to segment out the Sydney visitors then look at how many use the home page as their 'landing page'. that will show a quite different skew to those who visit the home page at any time in their visit. you probably want to segment further by keywords assuming most traffic comes via search. as that will also show different intentions. 5% home page is pretty normal these days. If i google 'australian museum' i already get presented with 9 different options of pages in your site to start at, of which only one is the home page. UNLESS, of course, I am using a mobile."

Lindsay Lohan is planning to turn her life around by taking part in intensive psychotherapy sessions and launching a foundation to help troubled youngsters, according to her lawyer.
The Mean Girls star is facing probation violation charges, but her attorney Mark Heller has filed a motion requesting the ongoing case be set aside so his client can pursue "certain activities which will benefit her" and enable her to be a "productive and responsible… contributor to society".
In a letter to the Santa Monica City Attorney in California, Heller writes, "Lindsay has asked me to facilitate an in-person meeting… not to discuss the merits of her defence of the details of her case, but rather for Lindsay to introduce herself… and express her desire to share her thoughts and help in the process of our determining what the best course would be for her future and to personally affirm her commitment and dedication to fix the problems."
Heller's letter, dated 4 February, goes on to detail the actress' plan to bounce back from a recent string of legal troubles.
He states, "Lindsay will gladly be participating in intensive psychotherapy, submitting herself to regular screenings and contributing her time to the production of public-service messages and periodic visits to schools, hospitals and other venues where she may provide inspirational talks, encouraging children to pursue positive goals and avoid bad habits."
He also notes the 26 year old is "exploring the establishment of a Lindsay Lohan Foundation" in a bid to "provide a nonprofit program to benefit young people".
In his motion, Heller asks the court to dismiss charges against Lohan which stem from a car accident in California last June, when she allegedly lied to cops by suggesting she was not behind the wheel of the Porsche.
A judge will make a decision on Heller's request at a hearing on Friday, reports EOnline.com.

Second murder retrial ordered in southwestern Illinois in wake of judge's alleged drug use
- Image 1 of 2
- Image 2 of 2
BELLEVILLE, Ill. – A judge on Wednesday granted a new trial for a man convicted of murder in a trial presided over by another Illinois judge who's now facing drug charges.
Gregory Muse is the second convicted killer to have his conviction thrown out after defense attorneys questioned whether Judge Michael Cook was impaired by drug use that federal investigators say included heroin. It's the latest fallout in a scandal that also included an ex-prosecutor's cocaine death.
Circuit Judge Robert Haida, the southwestern Illinois county's former longtime top prosecutor, suggested he had little choice but to order Muse retried "in the interest of justice."
"I can't speculate on what Judge Cook did or why he did it," Haida said. But "as I sit now reviewing this matter, I can't say with the certainty that I need to say that Gregory Muse received a fair trial."
Public defender Erin Conner submitted that Cook appeared to slur his words while reading the jury instructions before his first-degree murder conviction in March and that prosecutors at the trial failed to disclose to Muse that Cook was being investigated. Had they done so, Conner argued, Muse could have asked for a new judge.
Deborah Phillips, an assistant prosecutor under State's Attorney Brendan Kelly, countered that Muse was convicted due to "overwhelming" evidence and that Muse has never cited any specific examples of how Cook allegedly botched the proceedings or showed bias. Any impaired speech by Cook, Phillips suggested, may have been the result of the judge having to read 29 pages of jury instructions, which jurors also got written copies of during deliberations.
"That's the bottom line," Phillips told Haida. "There is simply not enough to call into question, to use the defense's terms, to overturn the verdict."
Arguments similar to Muse's already were pressed by William Cosby, whom Haida on Oct. 2 also granted a new trial after challenging the fairness of his trial, which Cook presided over in April. Cosby was convicted in last year's shooting death of a man outside an East St. Louis lounge.
That conviction, a month after Muse's, came roughly three weeks before federal prosecutors charged Cook with possessing heroin and having a gun while illegally using controlled substances.
Cook has resigned, pleaded not guilty, attended drug rehab in Minnesota and awaits a trial scheduled for Dec. 9, though his attorneys have said recently in court that Cook may plead guilty before then.
One of Cook's attorneys, Thomas Keefe III, has declined to publicly discuss his client's alleged drug use or the ensuing fallout involving Muse and Cosby.
Authorities have said Cook was with Joe Christ, a former longtime St. Clair County prosecutor and newly appointed associate judge, in March when Christ died of a cocaine overdose at the Cook family's western Illinois hunting cabin. Cook has not been charged in the death of Christ, a 49-year-old father of six.
Just two days after Christ's death, Cook was back on the bench for Muse's trial in the 2011 shooting death of an alleged accomplice during an East St. Louis pawn shop robbery.
Kelly, the state's attorney, said earlier this month that additional defendants unsatisfied by the outcomes of cases presided over by Cook may come forward to ask for new trials. "We may not know every challenge we'll face for some time. It could be many. It could be only these few," Kelly said.
Cook became an associate circuit judge in 2007 and became a circuit judge in 2010.

Tricks & Treats: Halloween Party Ideas
I don't know about you, even though Halloween isn't my favorite holiday, it is my favorite holiday for parties! Interactive and silly or elegant and spooky, Halloween parties can go in so many different directions — it's a party planner's dream.
Ever since my first Halloween party when I dressed as a globe and gave out 1980's troll dolls as party favors (yuck!), I've been collecting ideas here and there for the perfect Halloween soiree. Here are a few of my favorites.
1. How stylish are these chevron pumpkins! I love these geometrically painted pumpkins, especially in a pretty cluster in the foyer of your home or apartment. What an inviting way to set the tone for a modern Halloween party. From Country Living.
2. Caramel apple sundaes? Yes, please! Top off your party with a festive treat. Here's a quick hint of my own: sprinkle some gray salt on top — perfection! From Martha Stewart.
3. Another great pumpkin decorating idea from Country Living: carve pumpkins in the shape of a wood-burning fire, and place them inside of an empty fireplace: lovely and clever. Add a few candles for effect, but be careful of long, wispy Halloween costumes!
4. No bones about it! Check out these great bone cookie and glittery blood Halloween party invitations from Design Sponge. I never though bones could look so tasty…
5. For the crafty among us, these embroidered pumpkins could make a party in themselves. Gather some friends and follow instructions at Green Eyed to have a good old fashioned "stitch n' bitch," Halloween style.

Veteran TV director Michael Pressman got a surprising response when he asked students in his film directing class to describe their dream jobs.
"Your job," he said they told him recently. "We want to be the director in charge of a TV series."
Pressman, who has directed episodes of "Blue Bloods," "Law & Order" and many other series, was stunned. This class, at New York's New School, focused on film.
But the students weren't "dreaming of Oscar," said Pressman, who has also directed several movies, including a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" picture. "They want to make great TV series."
For decades, it was mostly a one-way journey. Television was a steppingstone...

Bar Carts and Liquor Cabinets
A someone who thoroughly enjoys a nice cocktail every now and then, one of my favorite parts of our Apartment Therapy House Tours is seeing how other people store and display their liquor. After all, those bottles are just too pretty to hide away. From at-home bars to trays to the top of an old dresser, our House Tour homeowners all had their own stylish solutions.
1. From Marina Replicates Her Boston Home.
2. Marina also has what appears to be a whiskey annex. I approve.
3. Rob has a covetable home bar in his Masculine Modern Condo.
4. Maker's Mark for drinking, National Geographic for a little leisure reading at Dean's Stylish & Social Greystone.
5. A small space, with room for a bar: Sarah's Supremely Stylish West Village Home.
6. This bar is just another reason to be envious of Jessica & Jonathan's 'Like-Eich' Ranch.
7. A welcoming display at Kim & Scott's Chicago Condo.
8. An elegant bar cart at Edith's Cool, Calm and Collected U Street Apartment.
9. A bar cart spotted in the dining room of Nadia's Very Very Very Fine house.
10. And finally, a jumble of bottles seen in Susan's San Francisco Adventure for the Senses.

On Thursday afternoon when West Port Principal Jayne Ellspermann learned a student had been killed. The veteran principal immediately requested the district's Crisis Team.
It was Thursday afternoon after West Port High's dismissal when Principal Jayne Ellspermann learned a student had been killed.
The veteran principal immediately requested the district's Crisis Team to be ready Friday morning to counsel some of the school's 2,500 students.
Angel David Guevara Arenas, 20, died when his BMW lost control and veered into oncoming Southwest 20th Street traffic. Two other students were seriously injured.
Like clockwork, the six-person Crisis Team — three psychologists and three social workers — arrived at the Southwest 80th Avenue school.
Ellspermann has only four school counselors and needed more professionals to help grieving students.
Teachers looked for grief-stricken teens needing crisis intervention. Though most students didn't need help, a "handful" struggled.
"Teachers are our front line of defense," Ellspermann said.
The students who were crying more than others or were despondent, attended some grief counseling.
Each year on average, the team responds six times to help children cope with a tragedy.
"Some situations are handled by the school," said Matt Lane, the director of the psychological and social work services. "Other times, like last week, principals request the Crisis Team."
The team sets up space at the school, usually a private office to help a few students or the media center to help larger numbers, Lane said.
After North Marion Middle School student Margay Schee, 13, was killed in a fiery bus accident in 2008, the Crisis Team responded in full force to counsel students and bus drivers. The goal is to teach healthy ways to deal with a crisis.
"In many cases, it is the first time they (children) learn to handle grief and adversity," said Terry McCray, a lead social worker. "It is important that we do it well."
And it can be a very daunting, yet rewarding, job.
"We walk into the schools when everyone's emotions are very raw," McCray said. "We let them talk, let them vent and look for the warning signs."
Students experiencing extreme grief may stay with counselors the entire school day. Crisis counseling is only a small part of their responsibility.
The department — which consists of 16 psychologists, three diagnostic experts, 14 social workers, 10 social work assistants, a supervisor and a couple clerks — work daily with schools.
A psychologist and a social worker are each assigned about four schools, which they visit weekly. The workers help school administrators identify the root causes of a child's problem, whether academic, attendance or behavioral.
Usually the root causes are problems at home, from no running water and electricity to incarcerated parents or drug use in the home.
The department serves 41,000 students at 51 schools annually. While the National Association of School Psychologists recommends one school psychologist for every 750 students, Marion County has one for every 2,562.
Lane said the department made 2,043 home visits last school year, or roughly 85 visits per social worker and assistant.
The main role of a psychologist is to evaluate thousands of Exceptional Student Education students, from gifted to those with learning disabilities.
Before the recession hit in late 2007, the department had about 58 employees. Through attrition, the district cut one psychologist, four social workers, three social work assistants and three diagnostic experts. In all, the department has been cut by 17 percent.
And as the economy has gotten worse, the need has been getting greater. The end result is that little prevention is underway and counselors only have time for the most severe cases.
"What happens at home, spills into the classroom," said Juan Lopez, a district psychologist. "We deal with a wide range of issues, from behavioral to mental health. We deal with everything that keeps a child from learning."

YORK CITY boss Gary Mills is confident skipper Chris Smith will be fit for Saturday's crunch League Two clash with Barnet.
The Minstermen manager is hoping to welcome back his defensive talisman to bolster a back four which was further depleted after Jon Challinor broke a leg in the second half of Tuesday night's 0-0 draw with Gillingham at Bootham Crescent.
Challinor is expected to be out for up to six weeks with a broken fibula but he is added to a treatment room which also includes Lanre Oyebanjo (fractured skull), Chris Doig (ankle) and David McGurk (hamstring).
Smith sat out the Gills clash with a foot problem and Mills returned Daniel Parslow to his favoured centre-back position.
He described Challinor's loss, which came as City posted a clean sheet after conceding four goals in each of the previous two games, as a "big blow".
"He was excellent on Tuesday night," the City chief said of Challinor. "It just seems there is a bit of a pattern going on, defensively, at the moment. We are picking up injuries and it is a big blow for us.
"We had a change around on Tuesday and I thought the back four were doing excellently.
"The same thing happened at Gillingham with Lanre. Now it has happened again.
"We are confident Chris Smith will be okay for the weekend. We are right on the edge defensively for players that are available.
"If he is fit, we may move Dan Parslow again, who went in at centre-half and did a superb job. We haven't had a settled back four for a while and Jeff Miller (physio) has certainly been busy this season.
"We want to go to the next game with the same back four but injuries have stopped us doing that."
Challinor has posted on Twitter that he is hoping the injury will take "four to six weeks" but Mills, who has suffered the same break, believes the length of recovery will be in the latter time frame.
He has not ruled out another plunge into the loan market if the situation worsens but, with a number of players already on those terms at Bootham Crescent, Mills is concerned at the "issues" that would arise from that decision.
Mills added: "I have broken my fibula and you are talking six weeks.
"At this stage of the season you are looking at the start of April and there is no doubt that is a big blow for us.
"We need to get Lanre back and it might be a case of fingers crossed and making a decision on whether to bring in another defender in the next week or two but hopefully not.
"We are topped up with loan players, which is an issue, so we will see."

My advice here (and I do this all the time) is: a) Invest in PXE network cards and boot from the network, not from floppy. Most current linuces have to be massaged a bit to boot from floppy any more, and if you are just starting out in this you don't want to be building custom kernels or messing with initrd. b) Use http, not nfs, to get the floppies. There are numerous advantages to this. NFS isn't terribly secure. NFS isn't terribly fast. An http-based repository (perhaps a RH or Fedora mirror) is just gangbusters for both install and post-install maintenance via yum. It isn't horrible difficult to do this any more. I do it at HOME for all my personal workstations and personal cluster there. You need a single server to install whatever you like. The server needs to run tftp (to handle the boot kernel and messages). dhpc (to give out network addresses at boot time and direct the boot loader to a network-based kernel). http (to actually serve the install files). The installation files (rpms) are served read only, and you can verify their retrievability with an ordinary web browser without opening up an NFS port into your server. This is even MORE useful than floppies in so many ways. I have a nice little list of what I can boot on a node. A kickstart install. A "redhat install" where I can select packages. In principle, a "rescue" kernel and image, although the interactive install kernel and image can be used for most rescue purposes if you know what you are doing. A choice of architectures and revisions. A DOS floppy boot image for doing certain chores. memtest86. All via PXE. Most of how to do this is in HOWTOs on the web. I'd personally recommend going with FC2 or even FC3 over RH-anything, but suit yourself. KS is pretty much the same either way. rgb > > So far I have: > > 1.)

DANVILLE (AP) — Dogs at the Humane Society of Danville are sleeping a bit more soundly these nights.
The Illinois Student Chapter of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians at the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Illinois delivered 27 Kuranda dog beds to the humane society recently. Student members of the club delivered and put together the beds.
The humane society has been working to improve conditions for its animals, and launched a fundraising program in October with the goal of procuring 30 beds by Christmas.
Kuranda beds are designed to make kennels more comfortable for the dogs by elevating them off the concrete.
Shawn Miller, director of the society, said of the help, "It's great. It was definitely appreciated."
Miller said Dr. Bob Weedon has been bringing his students to Danville to spay and neuter dogs and cats. They come about every two weeks, if they can, and get the animals ready for adoption. An animal that's already spayed or neutered has a greater chance of being adopted.
Miller gave a flyer to Weedon about the society's efforts to raise money to buy beds, and the doctor gave the flyer to his students.
When the students heard about the project, the humane society had already raised enough money for three dog beds. The students quickly used social media to collect the rest — 27 beds, for a total of 30 dog beds.
Now that the shelter has enough dog beds, Miller said he wants to get beds for the cats; he has 10 and needs 17 more.
The students are soliciting additional funds for cat beds for the humane society, as well as dog beds for other needy area shelters through its website.
Are the dogs using the beds?
Miller said, "The dogs were hopping right up there and started using them right away. The students were tickled by that.
"That makes their legwork worth it."
He said the dogs normally use the cots during the day. Also, the beds are supposed to be difficult, if not impossible, to destroy, but one dog is challenging that claim already.
The student-humane society collaboration is an example of the U of I-community partnership that exists to help both the institution and the public. Fourth-year veterinary students who are ISCASV members sterilize animals at the society under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian. This program gives the students experiential training in shelter medicine, and benefits the community by combating overpopulation through sterilization of animals prior to adoption.
The Illinois Student Chapter of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians' mission is to improve the health and well-being of animals in shelters through the advancement of shelter medicine. They do this by giving veterinary students opportunities to expand their knowledge and experience with shelter medicine through community events and educational opportunities.

RE[3]: I've lost all faith
by henderson101 on Wed 1st May 2013 13:34 UTC in reply to "RE[2]: I've lost all faith"
" 3) Default Folder X: It lets me right-click and take action on files/folders within Open/Save dialogs!
That's actually one of the biggest security flaws in Windows.
You're talking about the security of Windows' implementation, which has nil to do with how Apple might implement it. "
Yes, but I understand why Microsoft did it their way. If you are going to allow half the functions that Explorer allows, why not give them all? This is why I don't see Apple's approach as wrong - i.e. a file dialog is not Finder, so you must use the correct tool for the job.
I am talking about the user experience when performing basic file operations (not including execute) - rename, copy/paste files and create folders
Well, you *can* create folders by default (though it's possible some apps disable that feature), so that's not an issue - but do you really believe that renaming a file or indeed, copy and paste have any place in a file open/save dialog? Personally, I don't. I think, as I said earlier, if you have no preconceptions or expectations, Finder doesn't really cause too many issues. It's when you bring expectations from else where that it falls down. But then, Windows doesn't have Spaces, so for me it is less optimal to use. It's all down to personal preferences, as you also identified ;-)

Office Cat believes children should be seen and not heard, but he's undecided on giving the little tikes a 1.5GHz dual-core phone with a 4.5in 720p display, 4G LTE and a 13MP camera. Disney apparently thinks its fine, as long as it gets to plaster the thing with the livery of its perennially popular rodents. Office Cat awaits the Sylvester edition patiently.

AQ Audio SmartSpeaker Wireless+ Portable gets AirPlay
Yes, you might have seen AQ's SmartSpearker Wireless + before, but have you seen it like this? Yes? Oh, alright, so nothing's changed on the outside, but current owners of the AQ Audio wedge (no, Office Cat cannot be bothered to tap out its full title) can today update it to play nice with Apple's AirPlay (and a forthcoming Android app) for streaming off-network. Great for the garden or beach, suggests AQ's spin doctor. Has he looked at the calendar?
Samsung Galaxy Music
A budget smartphone? Pah. Office Cat winces at the thought of going back to a phone with a 3in screen and sub-1GHz processor. His ears perk up, however, at the mention of dual front-facing speakers (with SRS audio), a built-in FM radio and micro projector. Why aren't they fitting those sonic goodies to smartphones yet?

Designing for Small Spaces: 5 Tips from a Tiny Trailer
As a youngster, I begged my parents to get an RV. I was pretty sure that having a car you could sleep and watch TV in would make us the coolest family on the block. As an adult, I am totally taken with this beautiful little trailer. It's further evidence that living in a (really really) small space doesn't mean sacrificing style. After the jump, 5 principles for decorating in small spaces, inspired by this little caravan.
This beautiful little trailer, built by Caravanolic and decorated by Viceversa, can offer many tips for decorating a small space:
1. Stick to just one color palette. If you can stand in the middle of your apartment and see everything in your apartment, then it's wise to stick to a single color concept - anything else may be overwhelming. In the trailer, a palette of black and white with blue and green accents is bright and soothing.
2. Make your furniture multi-task. Here, a desk pulls out to become a dining table; when guests leave, the additional leaf can be pushed back under the desk for extra space. Look for furniture that will work hard for you - a side chair that folds out into a guest bed, or a coffee table that lifts up into a desk.
3. Use vertical space as well as horizontal space. When designing a space, it's easy to get caught up in just planning layouts. Don't forget that your apartment is three dimensional - use every inch of wall space you can. Here, knives and utensils hang from a wall in the kitchen, cabinets above the desk provide additional storage space, and a wall-hung vanity mirror helps limit clutter in the bathroom.
4. Arrange more public uses closest to the door. Long ago in architecture school, I learned about something called the "hierarchy of privacy". It's the idea that, as you move from the entrance to a dwelling though a series of rooms, the most private rooms are in the very back. But how do you accomplish this if you only have one room? Even in a small space, there are distinct 'zones' for doing different things. Here, there's the kitchen, the dining/study area, and the bed, which is the last thing you reach as you move through the space. This isn't a hard and fast rule, but in the past I've discovered that it can makes small spaces seem more comfortable and harmonious.
5. Don't be afraid to have fun. Keeping things simple will help a small space seem uncluttered, but a house is not a home unless you fill it with things you love. I love how the ubiquitous Cole & Sons 'Woods' wallpaper adds a bit of visual interest, and the vertical stripes in the teeny tiny bathroom give you something to look at while you're taking care of business.

R&B star Chris Brown has opened up about his latest split from on/off girlfriend Rihanna, blaming their busy work schedules and his reluctance to settle down for pushing them apart.
Rumors began surfacing online last month suggesting the singers, who began dating again last year, had parted ways once more after the Umbrella beauty shared her mixed feelings about love during a concert in Los Angeles.
She told fans, "How many of you are in love? How many of you hate love? How many of you don't f**king understand it? I'm in that group. The confused group."
Now Brown has confirmed that he and Rihanna are taking a break from their renewed relationship, admitting he's not yet ready to settle down.
The Kiss Kiss star came clean about the status of his love life during a recent Australian radio interview when he was asked if Rihanna would be joining in his multiple birthday celebrations to mark turning 24 on Sunday.
Discussing his big plans, he said, "I've actually got three birthday parties scheduled, I (sic) got one in L.A., one in Vegas and one in New York so we can go and have fun, and I'm just trying to have, you know, the best time with my fans and all the people in the club."
He then added, "Imma (sic) do it solo… I mean, at the end of the day, (Rihanna is) doing her own thang, she on the road (sic). It's always gonna be love. I'm a grown man, just gotta fast forward…
"I'm always gonna love that person. I can't be focused on wife-ing (sic) someone that young. I need to be the best Chris Brown I can be."
Rihanna is currently in the middle of the North American leg of her Diamonds World Tour, which will head to Africa and then Europe later this month.

Whisperings Solo Piano Radio First to Deploy New StreamGuys Interactive HTML5 Multimedia Player
StreamGuys'' unique player design gives �free stream� listeners a richer broadcast experienceBAYSIDE, CALIFORNIA, January 13, 2014 � StreamGuys announces that Whisperings Solo Piano Radio is its first customer to deploy the company''s new interactive HTML5 player. The player gives mobile listeners without a Flash player a simple way to access the free Whisperings stream, while also delivering a much richer broadcast experience through integrated metadata support.The integrated metadata gives free stream listeners a synchronized stream with high-quality music and visual information including artist names, song titles and album titles � as well as live links to purchase music through artist sites. Site owner and independent musician David Nevue notes that this richer experience, along with simpler playback on mobile devices, is important to attracting new listeners and retaining audiences in an increasingly crowded and fragmented marketplace.�Whisperings launched at a time when there was no other online listening option for solo piano music,� said Nevue, himself a solo pianist and composer. �There are many more options today and it is important that new listeners are greeted with a live stream rather than a message to download an app or a plug-in. The HTML5 player works across all devices so visitors don''t have to work to access our stream, while also offering a modern Pandora or iTunes Radio-like experience with artwork, details and buy links.�Nevue also sees this enhanced experience as an opportunity to interest more listeners in Whisperings PureStream, his commercial-free subscription service that offers an expanded artist roster, customizable playlists and more. Whisperings has long used StreamGuys'' RevenueStream software platform for secure, password-protected subscription controls and conditional access that ensures only subscribers can access the stream. His long-term satisfaction with StreamGuys for content delivery and stream protection played a significant role in his decision to integrate the new HTML5 player.�I have always thought of StreamGuys as more of a partner than just another company I work with. They provide outstanding customer service and a willingness to find solutions to obstacles,� he said. �StreamGuys has also offered flexible, affordable services to meet my changing bandwidth needs over the years, and they have been receptive and responsive to my requests regarding capabilities of the HTML5 player. They have delivered a multiformat streaming solution with this player that also offers new ways to explore revenue generation for the free stream.�Nevue''s above reference is to live dynamic advertising insertion, which StreamGuys supports within its HTML5 player via pre-rolls, mid-rolls and post-rolls. He also expects to use the player as an alternative choice for his ad-free PureStream service at a later date.StreamGuys launched its HTML5 player last month as part of its strategy to ensure that broadcasters, audio publishers and service providers can reach consumers across many fixed and mobile devices. The company is in the process of rolling out its HTML5 player for other customers in the US and abroad.About StreamGuys, Inc.In business since 2000, StreamGuys is a provider of audio and video streaming toolsets and services. The company has a reputation for outstanding customer service, a robust and reliable network, and competitive rates.

Q: If a foreigner is given Icelandic citizenship, can they change their name to a patronym (or matronym) to fit with Icelandic naming patterns? For example, if an Englishman's name is Eric Smith and his dad's name is John Smith, could he take the name Eric Johnsson/Jónsson upon naturalization?
Stan, London
A: A naturalized Icelandic citizen can take up a matronymic or patronymic after either their own parents, or their partner's parents. So Eric Smith could take up the name Johnsson or Jónsson. And if he married Árný Þórsdóttir, he could take the name Þórsson and become Eric Þórsson, or even Eric Þórsdóttir if he so pleased.
He would also be permitted to take the last name of his partner, so if he instead married Árný Briem, he could then become Eric Briem. This is an important distinction because Icelandic-born citizens are not permitted to use their spouse's last name, except as a middle name.

Oriental Rugs
Area Rugs: Oriental Rugs
Open virtually any magazine on decorating and you'll find Oriental rugs used as integral part of the decor. Oriental rugs blend wonderfully with contemporary, formal, ornate, casual and traditional decorating styles. Oriental rugs are as adaptable to the casual living styles of today as to a formal board room.
Oriental rugs are thick and rich, high in art content, often in multi-colored patterns or featuring representational designs. The typical color range for an oriental rug includes black, soft yellow, pastel pink, peach, apricot and blue.
Originally oriental rugs were hand-woven in China, oriental rugs are now made in Romania, Iran and India as well. Oriental rugs represent good value as labor costs remain low. The most expensive oriental rugs are woven from silk, cheaper oriental rugs from wool.
The warmth and beauty of Oriental rugs bring interest and luxury into almost every room in the house. Their amazingly resilient and durable qualities make oriental rugs perfectly suited for heavily traveled areas as well as seldom-used parlors.

Michal Kulik, 54, of 32 Lake Shore Drive went on a rampage early Wednesday morning, deliberately flooding his home, smashing windows, hurling furniture at officers and threatening to kill them, police said. He finally slumped over and officers were able to arrest him at about 7:15 a.m.
WEYMOUTH – It started with an argument between a father and son over a broken door. It ended with the father in handcuffs following a standoff with a SWAT team and just about everything else in the house bro ken, police say.
Michal Kulik, 54, of 32 Lake Shore Drive went on a rampage early Wednesday morning, deliberately flooding his home, smashing windows, hurling furniture at officers and threatening to kill them, police said. He finally slumped over and officers were able to arrest him at about 7:15 a.m.
"It looked like a bomb went off inside the house," police Capt. Richard Fuller said.
Kulik was taken to South Shore Hospital to be treated for multiple cuts he sustained during the two-hour standoff and what police described as "severe intoxication." He is charged with domestic assault and battery, making threats to kill, disturbing the peace and four counts of assault with a dangerous weapon. He is due to be arraigned in Quincy District Court on Thursday.
Jeffrey Richards, the town's director of municipal licensing and inspections, estimated the damage to the three-bedroom home at about $100,000 and said the structure is uninhabitable. The house, which Kulik bought in 1992, was valued at $92,900, according to town property records.
"Every window was broken. The entire house had holes in the Sheetrock," Richards said. "There wasn't a thing that wasn't destroyed in that house."
On Wednesday morning, the front lawn was littered with smashed furniture, a computer, books and other debris.
Officers responded to the home shortly before 5 a.m. when Kulik's wife and 21-year-old son reported that they had fled the house after Kulik head-butted the son in the head, according to a police report. The father and son had argued earlier in the day when Kulik accused his son of not helping him repair a door. Kulik left and returned home at about 4 a.m. and started smashing things and screaming.
The family members told police that there were several knives and two "very protective" dogs in the home, the re port said.
When the officers arrived, they found the house strewn with broken glass and smashed furniture. Kulik launched into what Police Chief Richard Grimes later described as an "angry tirade."
"Mr. Kulik threatened us to come upstairs to see how many of us he could take out," Officer Dean Levy wrote in the report. "He stated, 'You all are dead.'"
Kulik also let one of the dogs loose but it did not attack the officers, according to the report. Kulik then barricaded himself in an upstairs bedroom.
Police called in a SWAT team from the Metropolitan Law Enforcement Council, a consortium of more than 40 police and sheriff's departments in the region, including Weymouth.
While the officers waited for the team to arrive, Kulik turned on the water in an upstairs bathroom and flooded the second floor, according to the report. The water began leaking through the ceiling, causing part of the ceiling to buckle, the report said. Meanwhile, Kulik continued to throw items including a sink and photo albums through the smashed windows into the yard, police said.
At one point, Kulik held a shard of glass to his neck and threatened to kill himself if the police didn't leave, according to the report. He eventually slumped over with his up per body outside the upstairs window. The SWAT team set off a flash grenade and was able to take him into custody.
Neither of the two dogs was harmed, Fuller said.
The police report listed Kulik's occupation as "retired."
Kulik has pending charges of domestic assault and battery stemming from an arrest in October, Fuller said. Kulik was out on bail on those charges at the time of his arrest Wednesday and was due to return to court next month.
In 2005, he was charged with assault and battery on a police officer, disorderly conduct and disturbing the piece peace after he refused to leave a Hingham bar, according to court records. Those charges were later continued without a finding for six months.

Hampton edges Md-Eastern Shore late, 71-65

KyRee Jones tossed in 27 points to lead Maryland-Eastern Shore (3-18, 1-8), hitting 12 of 13 attempts from the line. Baxter added 16 points.

MANHATTAN SUPREME COURT — It'll be the next best thing after her little black book.
"Millionaire Madam" Anna Gristina promised to pen a tell-all tome about her roller-coaster trip through the city's criminal justice system.
The soccer mom — who was formally sentenced to six months in jail in Manhattan Supreme Court Tuesday, which amounts to time served — as well as five years probation, hinted that her literary future might be scathing for prosecutors.
As she left the courthouse Tuesday, Gristina called the Manhattan DA's office "more corrupt than the mafia."
But Gristina, a mother of four who lives on farm in Monroe, New York, continued to have reservations about her guilty plea on Sept. 25, which could mean deportation for the Scottish national, her lawyer, Norman Pattis said.
"It was a close call," said Pattis, after the brief sentencing hearing before Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan. "It was a very difficult decision and until the penultimate moment, it was an an open question about whether or not she would go to trial."
Pattis also had harsh words for Gristina's alleged accomplice Jaynie May Baker, who took a plea deal earlier this year.
"Sometimes people get great deals for being state's witnesses, for being a rat...Ms. Baker decided to flip and roll over on a friend to get a deal," he said.
Baker, he said "gets a slap on the wrist and my client gets a felony conviction and faces possible deportation."
Gristina, wearing khaki pants and a black and white cowl neck sweater, exchanged whispers with her lawyer after he asked for a few final moments to confer with his client about the deal during the hearing.
In the end, Pattis told Merchan, they would "rely on the promised sentence."
Gristina, who appeared in good spirits, declined to say anthing during the hearing, telling the judge "It's probably better, you honor, that I don't."
She was taken out of the court in handcuffs, for final processing — and was released, without her court-ordered ankle bracelet this afternoon.
"There is nothing glamorous about prostitution. Anna Gristina rented women's bodies for profit, which makes her a pimp," said Erin Duggan, spokesperson for the Manhattan DA's office, in a statement. "That also makes her a felon, and the court has now issued that judgment. She has no one to blame but herself for her decisions."
Pattis, meanwhile, also had some acerbic words for the Manhattan prosecutors, saying the DA has a "gutless office."
"They make inflamatory accusations in public court and then don't prove a g----amn thing they alleged," he said. "They send an undercover cop in with taxpayer money to set this woman up and they called her madam to the stars. I never saw an ounce of proof."
After her arrest in February, Gristina spent months on Rikers Island, trying numerous times to have her bail, initially set at $2 million, reduced. She was finally released in June.
DNAinfo.com New York broke the story in March that Gristina lived a double life as a soccer mom who ran a premium escort service out of an East 78th Street apartment.
Prosecutors originally billed the Gristina probe as a public corruption case, claiming they had wiretaps where they heard Gristina boasting of high-profile johns at the bordello she was supposedly running out of an Upper East Side apartment and of having close contacts among cops who were protecting her.
