发帖数: 5892 | 33 “Foster Home”是指寄养家庭，即照顾孤儿、不良儿童或精神病人的家庭。本来出于人道考虑，这是一种社会保障的事业建设，结果由于缺乏有效监督和体制规范，不断出现缺失和漏洞，致使被寄养者不幸遭到身心两个方面的戕害，反而成为非人道的牺牲品。
一直以来总有专家指出，加拿大的寄养制度存在诸多弊端，需要做出较大的调整。近来有主流媒体通过《信息自由法》（Freedom-of- Information），发现卑诗省儿童和家庭厅雇员存在的问题，成为被困扰的体制瑕疵的新证据。皇家骑警公开要求提供相关线索，以便发现新的受害者。
卑诗省新民主党儿童与家庭事务评论员卡拉吉妮丝认为，目前所发现的问题很可能只是“冰山一角”，在全省范围内，类似的事件还会存在，所以省政府有关部门把这起事件当成“一次性个案”，是故意回避对体制的检讨。

剧情类最佳男主角提名：
凯文·史派西（Kevin Spacey）-《纸牌屋》（House of Cards）
乔恩·汉姆（Jon Hamm）-《广告狂人》（Mad Men）
杰夫·丹尼尔斯（Jeff Daniels）-《新闻编辑室》（The Newsroom）

自五四新文化运动以来，七十年间，中文的变化极大。一方面，优秀的作家与学者

Religion in America is on the defensive.
Atheist books such as The God Delusion and The End of Faith have, by
exposing the dangers of faith and the lack of evidence for the God of
Abraham, become best-sellers. Science nibbles at religion from the other end
, relentlessly consuming divine explanations and replacing them with
material ones. Evolution took a huge bite a while back, and recent work on
the brain has shown no evidence for souls, spirits, or any part of our
