A Father's Example Guides Tebow - NYTimes.com - Seth Mydans - “I truly believe that the God who loves me also looks at orphans as extremely special,” Tim Tebow writes in his autobiography, “Through My Eyes,” written with Nathan Whitaker. “Over and over, my parents showed us how the Bible talks about taking care of widows and orphans.” Tim Tebow was born in the distant capital, Manila, in 1987 and lived there until he was 3 years old. Since the age of 15 he has made a number of visits back and has now established the Tim Tebow Foundation. In addition to its evangelical work in the United States, his foundation has plans to build a 30-bed children’s hospital in Mindanao’s largest city, Davao.

Dancing With Derivatives - NYTimes.com - Maureen Dowd - Jamie Dimon calls it “a doozy.” And it was. A $2 billion credit derivatives trading bungle that could mushroom to a $4 billion loss.
