Jaws

Jaw Distraction I remember my first jaw distraction surgery on July 8th, 2013. My family and I went to Shriners Hospital in Chicago for a checkup and to set up the surgery date. We left for Chicago on July 7th, It was hot sunny day. We stopped at Aurora Mall to shop on the way there. When we got to the hospital. I met Destany and Meredith, they were also there for jaw distraction surgery. The next day I had to be at the hospital at 5:30 am to be prepped for surgery. I was very nervous. The…

MOVIE NIGHT. It was my Dad’s turn to choose the movie. “We’re going to watch JAWS after we watch an episode of Shark Week” My dad said in his Dad way. Being 8 at the time I had no idea what JAWS was, but I knew it was an old movie since my Dad got to see it as a kid. My Mom grabbed the black remote and turned on the tv. We watched as the tv went from a dreary-black to a bloody toothed, opened mouth, flesh hanging from its jaw, Great White Shark jumping out of the water. I screamed since the…

out of this situation as previously he “snatch’d [him] one half out the jaws of death, [and] relieved him with such sanctity of love.” Cesario confused does not help him, thus Antonio’s exuberant love for Sebastian resulted in his capturing and placing in a terrible situation, constructing the suffering love inflicts on those in the realm of Twelfth Night. Furthermore, Antonio’s implementation of personification about the “jaws of death” sculpts that extreme adoration to one’s significant other…

The goal of any good screenwriter, or any writer really, is to grab the reader's attention and keep it until the end. Your goal for your blog should be exactly the same. From the minute the site visitor hits your landing page, his attention should be captured enough that he doesn't leave for a good long while. Like a good film that leaves you wanting to know more about the characters, view it again, or see the sequel, a good blog will draw in the visitor and make him bookmark your site and sign…

“ I couldn’t possibly write Jaws today at least, not in a good conscience anyway,” said Peter Benchley, the author of Jaws. On the other hand, all sharks are different from each other, just like the saying “no two snowflakes are the same” I think it’s the same with sharks no two sharks are the same. However, sharks make me think because they all have their own different identities and none are exactly the same and I wish to have a baby shark sometime in my lifetime. Better yet, I would want a…

Sharks are some of the most misunderstood creatures in the world. They are often given an unfavorable image by the media, both in the news and in the movies. For example, the 1975 summer blockbuster movie "Jaws" directed by Steven Spielberg, portrayed great white sharks as ferocious man eating monsters, that actively hunts humans. In addition, the Discovery Channel is guilty of doing this in their Shark Week television program. The program over exaggerates the behaviors of sharks as being very…

“You dove into the ocean without telling me, Yasmin. We were twenty miles out. Ever seen a teenage girl bitten in half by a Great White?” Yasmin joked, “Yes, in that movie that comes on at one in the morning, Jaws.” Everybody laughed. Robbie was not amused, “Yeah, the Stephen Spielberg movie Jaws… Remember the scene when she was eaten, that could have been you.” Yasmin hugs Robbie -- clings to him like a little girl, “I promise, Robbie -- I’ll do whatever you want me to.” One of the young men…

Jaws is an American thriller/suspense that falls into human fears, the fear that people sometimes even do not know they have it until they face it. That blockbuster describes the summer story that turned into disaster and put a fear in a lot of people because of water, but more because of its habitants. So to what genre actually Jaws relates to? A lot of sources describe film Jaws as a thriller and a lot as suspense, however it has the features of both genres. What is a thriller? Thriller is…

portrayed with sound. One example could be the shower scene in Psycho; if you turn off the screen and only listen to the sound; an almost crystal clear visual is made because you can hear what is actually going on. Another perfect example is the movie Jaws (1975). The iconic scene in the movie is when Brody finally kills the beast; with the music, the sound effects and the vocals combined, a feeling of suspense becomes apparent with the audience, as well as that of a sigh of relief once Bruce…

HPT-JT patients develop PCas or solitary, rarer multiple, cystic parathyroid adenomas. PCas have been occasionally reported also in patients…
