Shield Project: Theatrical Comedy Mask, A Great White Shark
The Shield Project has you choose 4 things that describe you as a person, who you are. I choose a theatrical comedy mask, a great white shark, a plate of spaghetti, and a russian flag with a bear as well as a star. My first choice for the Shield Project was a theatrical comedy mask. I have always thought that i was funny, my family and friends can tell you otherwise. My friends tell me i have a gift of making situations less “awkward”.
My second choice was a great white shark, my love for sharks is enormous! When i was 9 years old i was scrolling through the television channels and stumbled upon an AMC screening of Deep Blue Sea, after watching that I was obsessed with all types of sharks(Megalodon, Great White, Tiger Shark). I loved going

    Shark: Blood and Dr. Ramos

    by Herbert House Biology Department Elon University, Elon, N.C. It was 5:00 PM on a hot summer afternoon. Eight-year-old Jim Morris, wading in the warm current off Florida's Gulf Coast, swam easily toward his sister Amy and his uncle Robert. But the kids' fun in the shoulder-deep water was cut short by Jim's shouts of "Get it off me! Get it off me!" Amy's screams sliced through the peacefully rolling breakers like a knife, "Help! A shark has bitten off my brother's arm! Call 911!" Nearby swimmers heard the cries as Uncle Robert yelled, "Help us get the shark. It swallowed the arm!" The swimmers converged on the spot, grabbing the six-and-a-half-foot bull shark by the tail and holding on for dear life. The twitching shark was hauled ashore barehanded by the group of men and shot. They pried open the shark's mouth while Robert pulled Jim's right arm out from between its jaws. As the boy's blood soaked into the white sand, lifeguards began CPR and applied a tourniquet. Paramedics arrived to stabilize Jim for transport to nearby Coastal Hospital. His arm was packed in ice and taken along. In the emergency room, Dr. Elaine Rogers, the physician on duty, quickly ordered multiple transfusions to restore the boy's blood supply as the ER team began stabilizing his vital signs. Dr. Rogers began assembling the operating room team that would attempt to reattach Jim's arm. She called Ronan McBane, a microvascular surgeon, at his home. "Ronan, we have a cleanly severed arm due to a shark bite. It looks like it was just chopped off, with not much shredding of the tissue. The sharp-edged teeth of the shark bit through the boy's arm so cleanly it almost seems to have been severed by a cleaver. The boy is eight years old and, although he is still in pretty bad shape, we think that since the arm was recovered and is in reasonably good condition, we have a good chance at success." Further conversation convinced Ronan that reattachment was possible. By the time Dr.…

    The shark is known to be a terror of the ocean that does nothing more than kill human’s, at least this is what was think of these creatures until more research was discovered. The truth is that the shark is a beautiful creature that has more than 440 species that is being hunted to extinction. Not many people are killed by sharks, as it is more common to be killed by a vending machine, than a shark. These creatures do not need to be hunted, as they are already on the verge of extinction.…

    Sand Shark Research Paper

    The sand shark is very important to my tribe, and I shall tell you why. Once, a very long time ago, a group of hunters were looking for animals for food and supplies. The eldest, and wisest, said “We must continue hunting! Do not lose hope!” Suddenly a squirrel scampered across a cedar branch. The youngest was quick, he raised his bow, arrow drawn, and shot. The squirrel was too quick, the arrow missed. Several days later, hunger spread throughout the village. The three hunters had failed to collect enough food for the winter. Many died, some went mad with starvation. One day in winter, the hunters had no choice but to hunt. After several hours, they noticed that one spot of water had not frozen. The hunters made the decision to go fishing.…

    Analysis of the film Jaws

    The beginning of the film Jaws starts of with the first attack. This scares the viewer from the very start and excites them, wanting to know what happens next and who else will be victims. The first victim, a girl, is attacked at night, so this would mean it would have been dark. This is done for two reasons, one the dark is scary to everyone as no one can see what is coming for them, or what it out there, and that links into the second reason, so we don’t see the shark, leaving a sense of mystery. The camera shot changes from being at eye level with the girl to the point of view of the shark. Being at eye level with the girl makes the person watching feel as if they are in the film itself, and can make the person feel more fear as they also know that there is something fast approaching because the shot keeps changing to the point of view of the shark, looking up at the girl swimming. When the shark attacks the girl it keeps the shot at eye level with the girl making the viewer feel as if it could be them. Then the girl is dragged under the water right in front of the camera, making it feel as if it is close to the viewer but also confirming that the girl defiantly has gone under the water. Then in the next part of the movie where they find the body one the beach, the viewer is the last to see the body. This holds suspense and makes the viewer want to see it more as they see everyone else see the body of the girl and reel back in horror, but also makes them not want to see it, as they can see it will be gruesome. When the report is being filled out for the death there is a close up shot of ‘shark attack’ being typed, this is the first time there is some confirmation that it was a shark that killed the girl, and also it makes the viewer look out for a shark in all the other scenes to come.…

    Shark and the Goldfish

    I chose “The Shark And The Goldfish” by Jon Gordon for my book report. This book is about positive ways to thrive during waves of change and follows a goldfish named Gordy who washes out into the ocean. Gordy has always been taken care of and fed daily, but doesn’t know how to act or get food when he is in the ocean. He meets a nice shark named Sammy who teaches him how to find food and take care of himself. The story is a lesson for how you never know what life is going to throw at you and when a new challenge or change comes your way, it is up to you to embrace the change and learn to grow instead of viewing the change as a negative. The lingering question in the beginning of the story is are you a shark or a goldfish and how you can learn to become a shark if you tend to have more goldfish like tendencies.…

    Personal Narrative: Roller Coasters

    The Fury, the fastest, longest, and tallest rollercoaster on the East Coast. With a top speed of 95 mph and a height of 325 feet makes it the biggest rollercoaster I had ever gotten on, beating the Intimidator 305 by 25 feet. I remember seeing on television and wanting to ride it really badly. It just looked so amazing and since I love rollercoasters and love riding rollercoasters, I knew it was something I had to do. I had ridden lots of rollercoasters before this one such as the Intimidator 305 and the Top Thrill Dragster, which I had enjoyed riding very much, and I figured that the Fury would be just as good. So I asked my parents of we could go to the Carrowinds to ride the Fury. They said yes and we went with my aunt to the Carrowinds.…

    Summary: Reef Shark

    Summary: Reef Shark

    In the article I read, the focal organism is the reef shark and the food web consists of the algae (from coral), then the parrotfish and then the reef shark, or you have the algae (from coral), then the wrasse and then the reef shark. In this food web, the reef shark is known as the top predator and its trophic level is the quaternary consumer. “Sharks are important members of ocean food chains and removing them can have unintended consequences” (Meekan, 2013). When the reef sharks are removed from the ocean, the numbers of smaller predators increases but because there are more fishes such as snappers, this causes there to be less algae eating fish, for example, parrotfish. As there are less algae eating fish, the young coral in the ocean become…
