  • New York Giants 2012 Season Recap 2012 New York Giants
    NEW YORK GIANTS 2012 SEASON RECAP The 2012 Giants finished 9-7 and in second place in the NFC East. It was the eighth consecutive season in which the Giants finished .500 or better, their longest such streak since they played 10 seasons in a row without a losing record from 1954-63. The Giants finished with a winning record for the third consecutive season, the first time they had done that since 1988-90 (when they were 10-6, 12-4, 13-3). Despite extending those streaks, they did not earn a postseason berth. The Giants lost control of their playoff destiny with back-to-back late-season defeats in Atlanta and Baltimore. They routed Philadelphia in their finale, but soon learned they were eliminated when Chicago beat Detroit. The Giants compiled numerous impressive statistics in 2012. They scored 429 points, the second-highest total in franchise history; the 1963 Giants scored 448. The 2012 season was the fifth in the 88-year history of the franchise in which the Giants scored more than 400 points. The Giants scored a franchise- record 278 points at home, shattering the old mark of 248, set in 2007. In their last three home games – victories over Green Bay, New Orleans and Philadelphia – the Giants scored 38, 52 and 42 points. The 2012 team allowed an NFL-low 20 sacks. The Giants were fourth in the NFL in both takeaways (35, four more than they had in 2011) and turnover differential (plus-14, a significant improvement over 2011’s plus-7). The plus-14 was the Giants’ best turnover differential since they were plus-25 in 1997.

    [ABCDE] VOLUME 12, ISSUE 8 Sports Ethics ■ Word Study: Is That Ethical? ■ Post Reprint: “Redskins linebacker London Fletcher has grown from boy in peril to NFL elder statesman” ■ Student Activity: Role Models — Ethics in Motion ■ Student Activity: “Do No Harm in Action” ■ Post Reprint: Sally Jenkins's steadfast support of Lance Armstrong ■ Think Like a Reporter: The Ethics of Reporting April 14, 2013 © 2013 THE WASHINGTON POST COMPANY VOLUME 12, ISSUE 8 An Integrated Curriculum For The Washington Post Newspaper In Education Program WORD study Is That Ethical? Some of your classmates boo a player on the opposing team. A player jabs her elbow into an opponent’s ribs. A coach yells obscenities at his team during practice. Are these acceptable actions? Referees, coaches, school administrators and league rules usually confront poor sportsmanship. What should the rest of the student body do? You should exhibit conduct that shows respect for others — your team and opponents. WHAT DOES SPORTSMANSHIP HAVE TO DO WITH ETHICS? Good sportsmanship is right conduct or ethical behavior. The rules of sportsmanship are similar to moral principles that govern a person’s or a group’s behavior. You learn ethical behavior at home and school, through religious teachings and athletic rules. WHAT IS THE ROOT OF “ETHICS”? The Greek philosopher Aristotle wrote many treatises, including about ta ethika, character, in the 300s B.C.E. The Greek word ethos means “custom” or “moral character.” Ethikos is the adjective meaning ethical. In the 13th century, the Old French word étique derived from the Late Latin ethica. These terms’ roots spring from the Greek ethike philosophia, “moral philosophy.” In France, a code of ethics is un code d’ éthique, medical ethics are éthique médicale, and an Ethics Committee is comité éthique.

  • The Sovereignty of Jesus Previous | Next &Nbsp
    The Sovereignty of Jesus Previous | Next &nbsp Before you start MEETING AIM: The Evangelical Dictionary of Theology defines God’s sovereignty as being ‘the biblical teaching that God is king, supreme ruler and lawgiver of the universe’. With this in mind, the aim of this meeting is to understand that God has given Jesus all sovereignty and authority; if Jesus is sovereign in everything then he’s worthy to be worshipped and can also be trusted. BACKGROUND PREPARATION: For the purpose of this study I have mainly used verses 13-23. In these verses Paul talks about the sovereignty of Jesus through Jesus’ relationship with his heavenly Father. Your young people are likely to ask several questions about the nature of the Trinity so you might want to brush up on your own understanding in order to be able to answer. Pictures of creation (5 mins) Have the group seated in a circle and in the middle of them, lay out several pictures of creation e.g. sunsets, flowers, beaches, mountains, animals, people of different races, a foetus, babies, food etc… Good resources are: free food magazines from supermarkets and chemists, pregnancy magazines, holiday brochures, newspapers and of course the Internet. The more interesting the pictures the better. Play a worship song in the background and give the group a few minutes to look at the pictures and pick out something of meaning to them in relation to God as the creator of the world. Get each member of the group to share the reasons for their choice. KEY POINT: This kind of starter activity is excellent for getting everybody to participate even if it’s just with a simple sentence so make sure you are encouraging of even the smallest of comments.
