1. screened

   A projection screen is an installation consisting of a surface and a support structure used for displaying a projected image for the view of an audience. Projection screens may be permanently installed, as in a movie theater; painted on the wall; or portable with tripod or floor rising models as in a conference room or other non-dedicated viewing space. Another popular type of portable screens are inflatable screens for outdoor movie screening (open-air cinema).Uniformly white or grey screens are used almost exclusively as to avoid any discoloration to the image, while the most desired brightness of the screen depends on a number of variables, such as the ambient light level and the luminous power of the image source. Flat or curved screens may be used depending on the optics used to project the image and the desired geometrical accuracy of the image production, flat screens being the more common of the two. Screens can be further designed for front or back projection, the more common being front projection systems, which have the image source situated on the same side of the screen as the audience. Different markets exist for screens targeted for use with digital projectors, movie projectors, overhead projectors and slide projectors, although the basic idea for each of them is very much the same: front projection screens work on diffusely reflecting the light projected on to them, whereas back-projection screens work by diffusely transmitting the light through them.

1. Native American:

   If this helps to increase awareness to make sure these high-risk groups are screened, that is something that is very, very important about this new recommendation, it helps to get more women screened. It puts it more on the radar that they will then not just be screened but have the surveillance and the treatment that is offered based off of that screening.

2. Richard Hoffman:

   There's a European study that's been tracking men who've been screened now for 13 years. And it's shown that the benefit increases over time. It sounds small, but for every 780 men who get screened, you prevent one prostate cancer death.

3. Leah Millheiser:

   I think the idea of having an app that allows a woman to test for STDs in the privacy of her own home and get the results in the privacy of her own home opens the door potentially to more women being screened, some women are worried about the stigma of going into the doctor’s office and getting screened for a STD, even though they shouldn’t be . . . $149 is a reasonable cost for someone who wouldn’t go to the doctor in the first place.

4. Kevin Roberts:

   We've always known that the governor is his own best communicator, whenever possible we try to put him in his own words and let him do his own talking. At Christie's events, audience members are screened by state police before entering, but they're not screened for political ideology. In an ear when many politicians and campaigns select their audiences, a Chris Christie town hall is different. Anyone who hears about the town hall is allowed to show up. Neil Levesque, executive director of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics at Saint Anselm College, said town halls are popular because people like getting the chance to ask follow-up questions.

5. Phillip Finch:

   A criminal trial is not a search for truth. It is much too circumscribed for that. Rather, a trial is a formalized contest for the hearts and minds of a panel of twelve. It is a quest for a verdict in which information is selected and screened (we can almost say “processed”) before it is allowed to reach jurors.
