I've also had the experience of overhearing people say things like widescreen DVDs cut off part of the picture.. That is just wrong. In fact, the opposite is true. For those of you who don't know, here's a crash course on the difference between widescreen and full screen. Movie screens are rectangular. TV screens are square. (Or at least most of them are; HDTVs are changing this rapidly.) When you transfer a rectangular image to a square TV set, it doesn't fit.
Foster care: Licensed foster care is made up of individuals or families who have requested to be able to take dependent children into their home. Foster homes are licensed and inspected regularly, and foster parents go through a rigorous interview process before being approved.
Foster care is a system in which a minor has been placed into a ward, group home, or private home of a state-certified caregiver referred to as a foster parent. The placement of the child is usually arranged through the government or a social-service agency.he institution, group home or foster parent is compensated for expenses. The state via the family court and child protection agency stand in loco parentis to the minor, making all legal decisions while the foster parent is responsible for the day-to-day care of the minor.
