I believe the public's confidence would be increased if the federal government took over the functions of airport security screening for all passengers.
I'll never forget the first screening at the Berlin Film Festival. As soon as the film ended there was an outbreak of booing, which made us look at each other with some surprise.
The bottom line is, until we're helping people to stop smoking, screening for breast cancer, giving Pap smears, giving prenatal care to pregnant women, we should not go into publicly paying for the artificial heart, which will benefit at great cost only a few people.
It seemed like my professional life would take a more scientific route. I guess that plan started to become undone when, at the age of 17, I happened upon a screening of Alain Resnais' 'Hiroshima Mon Amour,' and it took my breath away.
The bottom line is, if somebody doesn't go through proper security screening, they're not going to go on the flight.
When it comes to meritocracy and diversity, the symbolic is real. And that means that simple actions that reduce bias, such as blind resume or application screening, are a double win: they reduce implicit bias and they help communicate our commitment to meritocracy.
I remember when I took Quentin Tarantino with me to a very private screening of the documentary 'Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired,' which shows some of the legal irregularities of his case. I was involved by the film, and it was an amazing experience to see people weep at the end of it.

A good breeder or experienced rescue agency wants you to prove that you'll be a capable caretaker.

A breeder ought to know if you work long hours away from home, have a fenced yard, have kids or other animals, or if you have access to parks.
We promised new benefits to seniors like preventive screening and diabetes testing. We kept that promise.
