Phillips de Pury & Company to support Britain Creates 2012: Fashion & Art Collusion
Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat, Olympics, 1984. Acrylic on canvas, 193 x 310 cm (75 7/8 x 122 in). Signed Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat on the overlap. Estimate: £2,000,000-3,000,000.
Phillips de Pury & Company
will support Britain Creates 2012: Fashion & Art Collusion. The project conceived by the British Fashion Council/Bazaar Fashion Arts Foundation and in partnership with the Mayor of London, is a unique opportunity to celebrate and strengthen the longstanding relationships between fashion designers and visual artists. Iconic British designers were paired with top UK contemporary artists and invited to collaborate on unique works of art.
Featuring: Giles Deacon + Jeremy Deller, Hussein Chalayan + Gavin Turk, Jonathan Saunders + Jess Flood-Paddock, Mary Katrantzou + Mark Titchner, Matthew Williamson + Mat Collishaw, Nicholas Kirkwood + Simon Periton, Peter Pilotto + Francis Upritchard, Paul Smith + Charming Baker, Stephen Jones + Cerith Wyn Evans
The nine works will be auctioned on 27 June by Phillips de Pury & Company at a gala benefit event with Simon de Pury as auctioneer in aid of the BFC/Bazaar Fashion Arts Foundation; a charity which aims to foster collaboration between the world of fashion and visual arts, opera, dance, theatre and film.
The ambitious collaborations encompass costume, sculpture, video and installation. They include a stunning light installation in the form of a conceptual hat by Jones and Wyn Evans; gleaming scalpels darting around parts of shoes in Kirkwood and Peritons motorised mobile; and dazzling digital animation from Katrantzou and Titchner. Mat Collishaws giant photographic print has been beaded and embellished by Matthew Williamson while a supple figure sculpted by Francis Upritchard has been outfitted in watery print and fishscales by Peter Pilotto. Giles Deacon and Jeremy Deller contribute the only wearable collaboration, which Deller calls an Arts and Crafts suit of armour for an athlete, while Hussein Chalayan and Gavin Turk recorded an audio track together. Smith and Bakers imposing monument, in aluminium and steel, is lightened with a characteristic touch of humour.
The works will be exhibited at the V&A in a free display running from 6-29 July, with a selection then available to view in the Selfridges Wonder Windows until 19 August.

Prosecution, defense both rest in retrial of Edward McDonough
TROY — Both the prosecution and the defense rested in the case against Board of Elections Democratic Commissioner Edward McDonough without any witnesses called by defense attorney Brian Premo and no testimony from the defendant.
Summations are slated for Monday morning and the jury could get the case by that afternoon, according to Judge George Pulver.
The day started with FBI handwriting expert Alan Robillard back on the stand as Premo tried to get him to admit his objectivity was skewed by the prosecution, but Robillard didn't budge.
Premo went through a series of email conversations Robillard had with Special Prosecutor Trey Smith regarding Edward McDonough's handwriting allegedly found on election documents related to the 2009 Working Families Party primary.
In those emails, Premo claimed Smith shared pieces of his prosecutorial theory behind McDonough's involvement to Robillard, even going as far as providing him the indictment. Robillard, while admitting getting an indictment is rare, said it is not abnormal for the prosecution to share its theory so he could narrow down the evidence he was tasked with perusing. Although Robillard admitted earlier he usually only needs the questioned documents and what entries to look at, he said this case was different.
"If I'm going to receive 100 documents and only 50 of them are necessary to do the work, you have to tell me that," Robillard said. "Very frequently I get specific information."
Premo was convinced Robillard gave Smith an opinion that matched his theory regarding McDonough which made Robillard visibly frustrated, repeating he had given an objective analysis.
Premo also asked questions as to why Robillard didn't ask for evidence from the other people suspected in the ballot fraud scheme, which Robillard said he did request of Smith but not until after he had published his first report
At one point, Robillard requested writing samples from McDonough to compare to the non-requested samples he had from the election documents. Robillard would request of McDonough to write faster as he said he wanted to study the speed of writing since he found writing on the documents to be done hastily.
"In McDonough's non-requested sample, he had nice and quick writing, so I knew he had that potential," Robillard said. Continued...
Premo asked if Robillard would have been able to come to his conclusion just by looking at the non-requested samples but Robillard disagreed. He said the evidence was "overwhelming" it was McDonough's handwriting found on those documents.
"I continually asked McDonough to write more quickly," Robillard said. "I don't think it's just a coincidence it was similar to the questioned document. It goes beyond coincidence."
There had also been a theory former Councilman John Brown's handwriting looked similar to McDonough's. Premo addressed it, asking if Robillard had ever relayed the information to Smith.
Robillard said he did mention the handwriting looked similar but only at first glance. He added he explained after a closer look why the two were different.
Brown pleaded guilty to one count of felony forgery in this case late last year.

He managed to assist Phillys game tier with a kick and miss a break away with 1 min left. I wonder what went through his head during the break before OT. Congratulations Hammer Hjalmarsson! The first player from my old club Eksjö HC to win the Lord Stanley. (to be honest the first player from EHC to play in the NHL, the swedish elite series and any other high level ;))
The horn beeping here is really irritating. I know that I'm not a Chicagoan yet as I was rooting for the Flyers to force a game 7.
We need a picture full of tradition. - Mangled, toothless smile...check - Scraggley beard...check - Mullett haircut...check - Cap of the Victors...check - Sports most honored and famous trophy...check.
I will try to time in my visit at my parents (in Eksjö) at the same time as Hammer brings the cup. I promise you pictures if this happens. Would be nice to have touched or atleast seen the Lord Stanley up close.
I saw the Cup once in Denver in the summer of 1996 after the Avs won it. They had it on display at some hotel with a bunch of other hockey memorabilia. I just happen to be in town meeting with an employee, and she took me by there. I remember standing in line for about 30 minutes to get in....I got a picture of it that is some where in the garage.
The good thing about Eksjö (10k people) is that even if Hammer so brings the holy grail we wouldn't see 30 minute lines.

Smart Woman: Motherhood, Not Marriage
By: Lane Stone
Updated: September 29, 2010
They're one of the fastest growing demographics, when it comes to motherhood, women in their 30s and 40s are having babies without partners in their lives.
Darla, Alison, and Michelle are three single moms, by choice.
Darla Rainford says, "You get to a point in your life where you don't want to wait anymore."
"Gee, if I turn 40, still not married, I should look into becoming a mom on my own." says choice mom Alison Morris.
"I didn't make that choice of picking the wrong person, just to get the child." says Michelle Brechon.
They're part of a growing trend of single women taking control over when and how they start families.
"To me being a mom wasn't necessarily about being married." says Rainford.
Rainford used a sperm donor who was a friend of hers to have her son Caeden. Morris adopted her son Julian from Guatemala. Brechon was artificially inseminated by an unknown donor to conceive her daughter Tara.
"Whether you're single or you're married, you still have the same biological urge to have a child." says Rainford.
Single parenthood, whether you choose it or not, is challenging. Studies show kids raised in single parent homes are more likely to be depressed, turn to violence and abuse alcohol. There's also concern that these kids don't have strong male role models.
"I usually say, 'I don't have a dad.' I say, 'I have a donor,' and then they always ask, 'What's a donor?' and I say, 'It's a person who helps your mom have a baby.'" says Caeden Rainford, who's mother choose to get a sperm donor to have him.
"When I'm building stuff I just think it might be fun to have a dad to help" says Caeden.
But these women say they found the formula for a happy family, without fathers.
"It's okay that we don't have dads because we still have a mom who loves us, and we still have someone to take care of us." says Caeden.
About 1.7 million babies are born to single women every year, a 26% rise over five years.
The percentage of babies born to unmarried women in the U.S. is starting to look more like many European countries.
The proportion of babies born to unmarried women is about 66% in Iceland, 55% in Sweden, 50% in France, and 44% in the U.K.

Boat Friendly Weights

from Mirabel, QC, CANADA
See all my reviews
Importing these to my place was quite pricey... But well worth the investment! They are comfortable, they don't shine, they hold on well, they don't dent and scratch boat floors. Other than that, well, they are belt weights...
Excellent weights!

About Me Beginner
These weights are very nice to have. The vinyl coating prevents damage while keeping lead from polluting the water. The black vinyl blends in with the rest of my gear, makes them virtually unnoticeable. I bought six of the 4 lb version, all of them came in pristine condition. They only cost a little more than the uncoated ones - get these, they are worth it!
These are really good weights
By Slimman
from Tavares, Florida
Alot of variation in the slot size. When I went to a rubber belt, half of them would not fit the thicker belt without milling out the slots. Other than that I like

My dear friend and neighbour Mandy made her transition to the Summerlands on the 31st of July, her funeral was yesterday, 6th August. She was 40 years old. In 2006 she was diagnosed with breast cancer at the same time my darling Badger was diagnosed with oaesophagael cancer; they were quite a pair, both refusing to be down beat or pessimistic and rising above the wave of well intended sympathy by being thoroughly irreverent in the face of it! They gave her the all clear, only for her to succum when it spread to her liver. She was completely open and full of life and joy, right until the end, when she told her sister she would like to close her eyes and go now, and she did.
She leaves behind her husband Gary, and her daughter chloe, 13. Her funeral was attended by the whole village, they had to open up the church hall and set up a PA to cope with the overflow. Her life was full of giving, she was a carer, a classroom assistant at our primary school and forever "being there" for anyone who needed a hand, and she so loved her life in the community in which she was born.
This is so hard for all those who loved her, and with Badger fighting his own battle with cancer again, I know this has affected him deeply. Please remember her and her family in your devotions, and all those who are fighting dis-ease.
Blessings and light

"PA helped us transform the IT organisation faster and smoother than we could have done by ourselves."
Helle Konga-Nielsen, Director of supporting functions, Swedish Public Employment Service
In times of economic uncertainty, there is increased pressure on firms to increase operational efficiencies, innovate, transform and deliver a stable IT platform.
The problems facing IT projects are well publicised, yet despite this knowledge, failure rates remain high and those that do deliver are often late, over-budget and do not realise the expected benefits.
Our approach to achieving this is simple: your IT solution should deliver the benefits it promised against a committed cost and timescale by bringing out the best in you and your suppliers.
We have steered our clients through complex delivery challenges that others thought impossible to deliver business benefits. Unlike other firms, we tailor our methods to suit your needs and we stand shoulder to shoulder with you, from advising and influencing at board level, to working as part of your team to ensure success – our deliverable is not a report, but IT delivery that meets or exceeds expectations.
We work with you to bring out the best in you and your suppliers with our IT Delivery Partner service
Whether you're in the process of planning a new IT change project, struggling to create a buzz in the business about all the value your project is delivering or reinvigorating a failing project, our framework for successful IT-enabled transformation offers something for you.
Our approach is independent and based on our practical and proven experience of helping clients to deliver over 1,000 successful IT enabled change projects, in a diverse range of industries and geographies.
We assess and reduce your on-going delivery risk with our IT Delivery Assurance service
Using our extensive IT project delivery experience, we quickly identify the tangible risks to delivering the benefits from your IT projects. We focus on identifying root causes, rather than symptoms, and our outcome-focus ensures that we deliver pragmatic advice that is mindful of your delivery environment.
As an independent company without any commercial affiliations to software vendors or suppliers, we will offer only our best advice to you.
We provide eDiscovery and litigation support with our IT Expert Witness service
Unfortunately some IT projects have already failed and are not recoverable when we are called in, and the parties decide to resolve the issues in the court or through arbitration. Our highly experienced consultants serve as expert witnesses and we also provide IT-specific litigation support and advice to our clients and their legal advisors. We have operated in this capacity in some of the largest and most complex disputes in recent years.
We use our extensive practical experience in major IT programme delivery to offer a full range of services to support your dispute resolution needs.We have extensive experience of acting as Experts in major litigations and arbitrations – bringing value to our clients and their legal team by providing an initial objective assessment of the case based on our experience as IT practitioners, through to providing expert evidence in reports and in giving testimony.
To ensure project success in your organisation please contact us now.

Spell Bound
A Novel
Kelley Armstrong - Author
At last, in the novel every Kelley Armstrong fan will need to own, all the major heroines and heroes of Otherworld are united.
It's been ten years since Bitten, the first novel in Kelley Armstrong's New York Times bestselling Otherworld series. In that time hundreds of thousands of fans have ravenously devoured the adventures of Armstrong's witches, demons, and werewolves. Now, in Spell Bound, she brings them all together for her most sweeping tale yet. Savannah Levine is in terrible danger, and for once she's powerless to help herself. At the heartbreaking conclusion of Waking the Witch, Savannah swore that she would give up her powers if it would prevent further pain for a young orphan. Little did she know that someone would take her up on that promise. And now, witch-hunting assassins, necromancers, half-demons, and rogue witches all seem to be after her. The threat is not just for Savannah; every member of the Otherworld might be at risk. While most of her fellow supernaturals are circling the wagons at a gathering of the council in Miami, Savannah is caught on the road, isolated from those who can protect her and unable to use her vast spell-casting talent, the thing she counts on most. In a story that will change the shape of the Otherworld forever, Armstrong gathers Elena, Clay, Paige, Lucas, Jamie, Hope, and other beloved characters, who soon learn that the greatest threat to supernaturals just may come from within. He watched the girl stumble from the motel office, room key glinting under the harsh lights of the parking lot. Lightning flashed, illuminating her figure. Tall and slender, barely more than a teen, too young to be out alone in a place like this, on a night like this. Thunder rumbled and crashed. The parking lot lights fl ickered and buzzed. Sheets of ice-cold rain battered the girl. She kept walking, obvious, as her long hair whipped against her face. She paid no attention to the storm. No attention to the dark. No attention to him, standing across the road, watching. So young. So confi dent. So foolish. The girl stopped at her room door and jammed the key into the lock. When it didn't work the first time, she cast an unlock spell. The door swung open. She staggered inside. So young. So powerful. And, at this moment, so broken. Perhaps he could use that. The girl had just solved the murder of three young women in a nearby town. On the surface, the deaths were unremarkable. Humans killed each other all the time. As it turned out, the first two fit the usual pattern—pointless deaths, tragic for a few, meaningless to everyone else. The third was different. She'd been killed by a half-demon spirit, escaped from her hell dimension. Such a thing should not be possible for a mere shade. She'd had help, powerful help, and her escape was one more sign that what he'd foreseen was inevitable. For years, mortal supernaturals had whispered about signs and portents. The impossible becoming possible. Humans learning magic. New races evolving within a generation. Bitten were¬wolves passing their genes to their offspring. A clairvoyant of unsurpassed power, born from a dead mother. As one who had observed for millennia, he knew these were not new occurrences. Merely rare. Yet with so many in such quick succession, even the demonic and the celestial had taken note. Some believed. Others did not, but saw opportunity in the growing unrest below. Now, mortal supernaturals who believed the signs were coalescing under one man. A man with a dream that could change the supernatural world. Or destroy it. The demonic and the celestial took note of that, too. They whispered. They conspired. They chose a side. The girl in the motel room knew nothing of this. She'd sent the half-demon shade back to her hell dimension and considered the matter closed, except for the details that obsessed her now, ones that had nothing to do with the gathering storm. Before the half-demon shade was banished from the living world, she'd exacted revenge by telling the authorities who'd killed the first two young women. The mother of one. It had been accidental. A struggle, the gun goes off. It concerned him not at all. But it did concern the girl in the motel room. She'd been the one who learned the truth. The half-demon shade simply acted on that knowledge. Now the girl couldn't stop think¬ing about the woman she'd inadvertently sent to prison. Couldn't stop thinking about the child, alone now, mother dead, grandmother accused of that death. It mattered not a whit in the larger scheme of things. In a few days, the girl in the motel room would be swept into the maelstrom about to blow through the supernatural world. She would play a role. A critical role. A dangerous role. Now inside the room, the girl flicked on the light, only to have it go out again as the power failed. She cast a light ball. Thank God for my spells, he heard her think. She paused then and images flickered through her mind. Images of the accused woman and the orphaned child. Of the girl's own mother and father, whose long ago deaths she felt responsible for. Of a man she'd begun to care for, killed by the half-demon shade. Guilt. Anguish. Despair. Then a clear thought. If I could fix even one thing, and give Kayla back her grandmother, I'd gladly give up my powers. He smiled. Yes, he could definitely use that. "Sexy, smart, and action-packed! Kelley Armstrong is truly one of the greats in this genre."-Richelle Mead, author of the bestselling Vampire Academy series "Kelley Armstrong's bewitching ability to entertain remains as strong as ever." -www.alternativeworlds.com "Armstrong's Women of the Otherworld goes beyond standard paranormal fiction . . . moving from one set of characters to another through the books, yet intertwining their stories to provide a rich background for the readers." -San Francisco Book Review "Armstrong is quite deft at making Savannah simultaneously formidable, sympathetic, and real-or at least as real as a girl who flings hex bolts and has a necromancer on speed-dial can be." -The Miami Herald "Savannah is a gutsy, shrewd, and accomplished protagonist who will immediately capture the reader's intelligence." -Library Journal "Armstrong is a master of suspense, romance, and bad girls who know how to kick a little badder-guy tail and look good while doing it. Getting a new Armstrong book is a guarantee that you're going to be up all night reading, because you're not going to be able to stop until it's done." -The Parkersburg News and Sentinel |

Clean-up in process for Lyons Township school treasurer's office
The door of the Lyons Township School Treasurer's Office in LaGrange Park hasn't been changed to reflect new board member Mike Thiessen of Western Springs, who was elected as president of the three-member board in November. | Jane Michaels—Sun-Times Media
Updated: January 14, 2013 6:12AM
LAGRANGE PARK — Reforms are under way in the Lyons Township School Treasurer's Office to guard taxpayer funds.
As legal action proceeds against former treasurer Robert Healy, the three-member board overseeing the office has begun implementing measures suggested by the Better Government Association.
Mike Thiessen of Western Springs, who was appointed to the board in July and named president in November, said the office's accounts have been consolidated in a single custodial account to ease tracking of investments.
"With the hiring of Chicago-based William Blair & Co., we have rid ourselves of every other investment adviser," Thiessen said.
He referred to the BGA's finding that Healy hired friends as consultants and paid them fees, which may have been above industry standards.
Investments will be made according to state standards for schools, rather than potentially more risky investments Healy authorized. And, campaign contributions won't be solicited from investors, as the BGA had uncovered Healy doing.
A check and balance system has been initiated so that the board reviews monthly transactions, and two signatures are required on checks, Thiessen said.
Previously, there was little oversight in the office allowing Healy to overpay himself $539,120 in 840 unused days off, according to an analysis performed by the Chicago law firm of Kubasiak, Flystra, Thorpe & Rotunno.
The Lyons Township Trustees of Schools Board oversees Healy's office, which invests more than $200 million in assets and manages payroll for 13 school districts and educational cooperatives in La Grange, Western Springs, Burr Ridge and other towns.
The board filed a civil suit against Healy Oct. 5 to recover about $500,000, Thiessen said. Material also was turned over to the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, but no criminal charges have been filed.
When Healy resigned Aug. 31, the board hired Clyde Bradley, a school finance consultant, to serve as interim treasurer. Bradley's contract was extended in November for two months to run through February to oversee reforms, Thiessen said.
The board has adopted a budget for the first time, and an audit of financial transactions for the past year is nearing completion, Thiessen said.
The budget, as well as minutes of meetings since 2011, aren't listed on the office's website, wwwlyonstts.org. The board is scheduled to meet again at 5:30 p.m. Dec. 19 at 930 Barnsdale Road, LaGrange Park.
Martin Brown of Western Springs, who has studied operations of the school treasurer's office, said he was pleased with reforms so far.
"I think they're definitely taking steps in the right direction, through there's a lot of work to be done there," Brown said. "It was neglected for years."

The Early Years of Entrepreneurship: A Step-by-Step Approach to Surviving and Thriving
by Caron_Beesley, Community Moderator
- Created: April 12, 2012, 7:11 am
- Updated: August 1, 2012, 5:23 pm
Entrepreneur and founder of The Body Shop Anita Roddick once said: "Nobody talks about entrepreneurship as survival, but that's exactly what it is and what nurtures creative thinking."
The first few years of small business ownership are undoubtedly the toughest, a huge test of entrepreneurial character. And data proves that getting it right is as challenging as ever. According to the SBA Office of Advocacy (PDF), the survival rate for new employer firms stacks up as follows:
- Seven out of 10 new employer firms survive at least two years
- Half survive at least five years
- A third last 10 years
- A quarter stay in business for 15 years or more
So, what strategies and tactics can you employ as you venture through the early years of business ownership? Below are some year-by-year approaches to consider:
Year 1 – Be Prepared for the Unexpected
Whatever your field of business, one of the first things you'll probably encounter in your first year is that things rarely go as planned. While you can do a lot to set up your business carefully (like these 10 Steps to Starting a Business), be prepared for the unexpected.
You may find you need to diversify your product line or that your true niche is something else. Maybe demand for your product goes through the roof and you can't cope or you find your suppliers aren't as reliable as you'd hoped.
Predicting shifts in market forces and business strategy isn't easy, but you can prepare by having a plan and sufficient cash reserves to allow adjustments to your year one strategy. Many of us put off writing a business plan until we need to secure financing. However, a well-prepared plan that is revisited often will help you steer your business on its course, and help you navigate bumps in the road. Try to think of your business plan as a living, breathing project, not a one-time term paper.
SBA guest blogger and planning expert Tim Berry calls this the "plan-as-you-go" approach and he offers advice in these two blogs: 10 Quick and Easy ways to Start Planning Better and 4 Steps to Keep Your Business Planning Simple and Useful
Part of your planning strategy should focus on maintaining cash flow and having reserves. The following tips from SCORE offer good advice for building a six month cash reserve:
- Add up all your monthly expenses, so you know what your true personal expenses are.
- Still in a day job? Set aside five percent of your net pay each paycheck and build savings.
- Sound like too much? Start with a goal of setting aside $100 week equals $5,200 a year, a nice cushion.
- As an entrepreneur, you want to be sure that whenever you take a cash draw from the company, you set aside money to pay taxes. Don't be surprised by a nasty tax bill.
- Start now. The most important thing is to create a habit of saving each week.
Year 2 – Reflect On and Advocate Your Business
At the end of year one, reflect back on your first year in business – your successes, failures and shortcomings. What would you have done differently? For tips on how to take stock of your business performance, read Taking Stock of the Business Year - How to Conduct a Year-End Review & Plan for the Year Ahead.
Year two is also the time to work ON your business, as opposed to working IN it. Becoming a fulfilled and successful business owner involves positioning yourself as a true advocate for your business, not just a salesperson. Some of the most successful brands in the world are where they are today because the entrepreneur behind the brand is out front advocating its products, its successes, and its core values – think Richard Branson or Steve Jobs.
Becoming an advocate isn't difficult, but it involves relinquishing control of some day-to-day business operations that you have gotten used to as a startup. This blog offers more tips: Five Tips for Building your Small Business Brand Using its Best Advocate - You!
Year 3 – Grow your Formula
Year three is often when small business owners really feel they've found a formula and a niche that works. Business fluctuations still happen, but by now you likely have a good view of your financial projections, so you can better prepare for market and seasonal fluctuations.
If your niche is working for you, keep focused and stay true to it. Stay customer-centric, look for opportunities to grow in that niche, and refine your business and marketing strategy to stay ahead of the curve.
How has your business evolved and adjusted its strategy to succeed and get through the difficult early years? Leave a comment below!

profit/loss forecast and consider how to finance the start-up.
Even the choice of a name for your business is important. It has to suit your
company and its products.
There are several more points, but the most important thing is to stick at it
and belive in your own ideas. Never give up because a start-up is never easy.
Belive me, it will be worth while.

their budgets, hire only when they absolutely have to and make the extra
effort when everyone else is kicking back are the ones that make these
transitions much faster and easier.

business life. If you are going to take a draw you need to set it up so all
the taxes are accounted for. Tax problems are one of the major killers of
small business dreams.

"Here's the story, of a lovely lady…"
'The Brady Bunch' is one of my favorite shows of all-time. Its reruns were my first real, sustained exposure to popular culture from before I was born, and something about a house full of lingo-spewing, disco-monster siblings appealed to an only child from the 80s. And hey, thankfully for me (and the Sports On TV column) the show is full of sports content, be it memorable (like Joe Namath showing up in a dream sequence to reveal he couldn't have won the Super Bowl without a buck-toothed 8-year old) or the obscure (Wes Parker? Really?).
If you've never watched 'The Brady Bunch', flip through the column anyway. I've included applicable clips when possible, and at the very least you'll want to see a Pony League game set to funk music. Show it to your parents or something.
And now, the 20 greatest sports moments from 'The Brady Bunch'. Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on clickin' on through the post.

And they have their defense to thank for it.
Clinging to a precarious one-touchdown lead, the Trojans' defense rose up and stopped the LaFayette three times deep in Gordon Lee territory in the second half to preserve a 14-6 win.
The win moved the Trojans back to .500 (3-3 overall), and dropped the Ramblers to 2-4.
"The defense has gotten us to where we're at now," GLMS head coach Tony McAllister said. "We kind of knew where (LaFayette) wanted to go with the ball, so it was nothing more than our kids stepping up and wanting it. We knew that there's a playoff spot to be had, and we took another step toward getting it tonight."
And while there were plenty of defensive heroes for the Trojans, perhaps none came up bigger than the smallest kid on the field.
Defensive back Noah Peterson, who broke up a long pass in the first quarter, came up huge on the Ramblers' final possession. Peterson broke up another deep ball on third down from the Gordon Lee 30, and then one snap later, stopped LMS receiver Bryson Giddy two yards short of a first down on what turned out to be LaFayette's final play of the game.
"Saying Noah is 4-foot-11 might even be giving him an inch or two, but he's one of our toughest players and he's got a heart too big for his body," McAllister explained. "He started the season on defense, but got pulled off for a couple of miscues earlier in the year. He never got upset or griped about it, but one day during practice, he came up to me and asked what he needed to do to get back on defense.
"He had a great week of practice this week, doing what he needed to do, and he came out and really played great."
Gordon Lee scored on its first two possessions of the game with Drew Cobb finding the end zone on runs of 2 and 45 yards. He also added a two-point conversion to give his team a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter.
LaFayette would finally get on the board on their second possession, taking advantage of a 15-yard facemask penalty against the Trojans to drive 55 yards in five plays before KaDarrin Ramsey scored from four yards out. The Ramblers were stopped on the conversion try.
LaFayette would drive into Gordon Lee territory on their final three possessions of the game, but were denied each time.
The Trojans stopped the Ramblers four times on first-and-goal from the 6-yard line late in the third quarter, and Evan Clayton intercepted a Logan Teasley pass at the Gordon Lee 15 after a fumble gave the Ramblers outstanding field position early in the fourth quarter.
LaFayette would get one final crack from its own 36 with 3:19 to play, and two big runs by Ramsey moved the ball inside the Gordon Lee 30. But a fumble would back up the Ramblers up five yards and force them to go to the air, setting up Peterson's late-game heroics with just over a minute left to play.
Gordon Lee rushed 42 times for 207 yards with Cobb accounting for more than half of that total (20 rushes for 138 yards). Caleb Butcher picked up 48 tough yards on 14 carries.
For LaFayette, Ramsey ran 18 times for 129 yards, but the rest of the Rambler offense managed just 21 yards, 16 through the air on 3-of-5 passing.
In Thursday afternoon's other game involving Walker County teams, Rossville moved to 5-1 with a 46-12 win over Chattanooga Valley, who dropped to 2-4.
The NGAC regular season will conclude next Thursday. Lakeview will play at LaFayette, Chattanooga Valley will host Heritage, and Rossville will entertain Gordon Lee.

U.S., Europe ring in new year with hope for better times
NEW YORK (AP) — From the glittering New Year's ball dropping in Times Square to joyous fireworks in London and cheers in a once-isolated Asian country, the world did its best to ring in 2013 with hope for renewal after a year of economic uncertainty, searing violence and natural disasters.
"With all the sadness in the country, we're looking for some good changes in 2013," Laura Concannon, of Hingham, Mass., said as she, her husband, Kevin, and his parents joined hundreds of thousands of revelers lined up for blocks through bustling Times Square on Monday.
Yvonne Gomez, 53, a physician from Grand Forks, N.D., glowed as she and her husband, 63-year-old potato farmer Greg Halverson, took in the festivities in New York.
"I couldn't begin the new year in a more beautiful way," she said. "I married him two weeks ago and here we are in the middle of Times Square celebrating the new year — two widowers who found each other."
Revelers with New Year's hats and sunglasses boasting "2013" packed the streets in the 35-degree cold to count down the first ball drop in decades without Dick Clark, who died in April and was honored with his name printed on pieces of confetti and on one of the crystal panels on the Times Square ball.
Matias Dellanno, 37, of Buenos Aires, Argentina, stood in the middle of the square with his wife and 3-year-old son, beaming with joy as his eyes caught the multicolored lighting illuminating the square just before midnight.
"I feel a completely new hope for 2013," he said. "It can't be any worse than last year, when my business lost clients. It was a rough year for everyone. The new year has to be better!"
Security in Times Square was tight, with a mass of uniformed police and plainclothes officers assigned to blend into the crowd. With police Commissioner Raymond Kelly proclaiming that Times Square would be the "safest place in the world on New Year's Eve," officers used barriers to prevent overcrowding and checkpoints to inspect vehicles, enforce a ban on alcohol and check handbags.
Syracuse University student Taylor Nanz, 18, said she and a friend had been standing in Times Square since 1:20 p.m. Monday. They hadn't moved from their spot because "if you leave, you lose your place," she said, shivering behind an iron barricade with a clear view of One Times Square, the building where the crystal ball hovered.
"It's the first time - and the last time," she said. Continued...
Elsewhere, lavish fireworks displays lit up skylines in Sydney, Hong Kong and Shanghai. In the United Arab Emirates city of Dubai, multicolored fireworks danced early Tuesday up and down the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa.
In Rome, Pope Benedict XVI celebrated New Year's Eve with a vespers service in St. Peter's Basilica to give thanks for 2012 and look ahead to 2013. He said that despite all the death and injustice in the world, goodness prevails.
In Russia, spectators filled Moscow's iconic Red Square as fireworks exploded near the Kremlin. In Rio de Janeiro, revelers dressed head-to-toe in white as dictated by Brazilian new years' tradition flooded onto Copacabana beach for a concert.
Organizers said about 90,000 people gathered in a large field Yangon, Myanmar, for their first chance to do what much of the world does every Dec. 31 - watch a countdown. The reformist government that took office in 2011 in the country, long under military rule, threw its first public New Year's celebration in decades.
"We feel like we are in a different world," said Yu Thawda, a university student who went with three of her friends.
Parts of Europe held scaled-back festivities and street parties, the mood a bit restrained - if hopeful - for a 2013 that is projected to be a sixth straight year of recession amid Greece's worst economic crisis since World War II.
London, the often soggy British capital, was dry and clear, as the familiar chimes of the clock inside the Big Ben tower counted down the final seconds of 2012 and a dazzling display of fireworks lit the skies above Parliament Square. People cheered as the landmarks were bathed in the light of the display, which included streamers shot out of the London Eye wheel and blazing rockets launched from the banks of the River Thames.
Elsewhere, the atmosphere of celebration was muted with concern.
Hotels, clubs and other sites in New Delhi, the Indian capital, canceled festivities after the death of a rape victim on Saturday touched off days of mourning and reflection about women's safety.
In Times Square, some revelers checked their cellphones to keep up with news of lawmakers' tentative deal to skirt the fiscal cliff combination of expiring tax cuts and across-the-board spending cuts that threatened to reverberate globally. And the elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn., and Superstorm Sandy mingled into the memories of 2012. Continued...
"This has been a very eventful year, on many levels," Denise Norris said as she and her husband, the Rev. Urie Norris, surveyed the crowd jamming Times Square for the countdown show with Ryan Seacrest as host.
Seacrest remembered Clark and his legacy, saying it was one that would be continued, and that Clark himself had told him, "Seacrest, the show must go on."
Elvis Rivera, of Manhattan, was taking photos in Times Square to capture the moment. He wasn't planning to ring in the new year there but went by to take pictures.
How did he feel about the end of 2012?
"Relieved," Rivera said, adding that there had been a death and job losses in his family this year.
