Quiet Kill Sherlock handed one of the guys his card. “If you see him again or someone of a suspicious nature again around her, you can reach me at that number.” “We will.” “I thank you all for taking the time to chat with me and give me some information. It’s a bit too early to tell how important it is. But we will follow up on it. Thanks a lot guys.” He then pulled over to the phone, out and noticed straight away the words, “You still have something that belongs to me. Bring it, or one of you leaves in a body bag. If you don’t, you’re sure to see how easy it is for me to get your blood, and if you cut me off, gig mistake. You’re not the only one who can slice and dice.” Sherlock found it hard to believe someone scrolled the words in red
It was a pleasure talking to you last night! Below is a recap of our phone conversation, please review and advise me with any further comments you may have:
All Quiet on the Western Front was never written to be like the movies we watch today. When people go to see a movie about war, they typically expect watch a story jam packed with action from start to finish. All Quiet on the Western Front, also has this kind of battle from beginning to end, but was never intended to tell the common sci-fi adventure of which it could be associated to. It is made to speak against the terrible conditions which men had to face in world war won. The movie shows us, that even though there were so many casualties in the aftermath of World War One, there are some things in the world worse than death. The opening of the movie tells how the film is not an accusation, a confession, or an adventure, and the
"We could have been brothers, but they never want us to know that" (Mann, 1979). The 1979 television film All Quiet on the Western Front depicts the story of Paul Bauman, a German soldier fresh out of high school who decided to enlist for World War I. Throughout the course of the film, viewers see the general events of World War I from the eyes of the “losers”, the Germans. Through the use of a German perspective, the portrayal of the horrors of war, and showing the difference of opinions back home and on the front, All Quiet on the Western Front advocates for a more realistic approach for the dramatization of war and learning an unbiased history.
"I'm afraid so Mrs. Hudson. He hasn't stirred from that spot ever since he got a text from Lestrade, vaguely outlining his worst fear. Which of course for Sherlock is like displaying it in bold."
The novel “All Quiet on the Western Front” has many images of war and truly demonstrates the horrors the soldiers experienced. The author constantly provides surreal scenes that make the reader stop and think about how terrible the war was. One image that lingers in my mind is from the beginning when the young recruit lost his helmet and when Paul tried to help him and put it back on his head the boy hugged him. War is happening all around them and Paul shows deep sympathy towards the young boy. The reader cannot help but feel for the young boy and picture him just wanting the comfort of another. Another surreal image that lingers in my mind is when Paul is on leave and loses all feeling and power when he sees his sister and home. He starts
“Well. like I was telling your Chief, we’re investigating a series of home invasions turn child abductions. They might relate to some child abductions a few years ago and I believe that your John Doe might be one of the victims. He may be able to help us solve this.” I reply while looking directly at Doctor Alba.
War is a conflict between two nations, states, or different groups. During this conflict many people will fall victim to death; kids will be traumatized, mothers will see their children leave and never comeback. All of these tragic scenarios will occur because leaders of nations or groups have a feeling of aversion between each other. Soldiers train together and gain friendships with each other, later to witness their allies die in combat. In. "All Quiet..." When returning home soldiers may experience PTSD, even leaving war they'll be forever tortured by war.
The film, All Quiet on the Western Front, provides a visual representation of the WW1 battle field and the high stress environment soldiers were evoked in, from the start of the war. The renovated movie and the original book publishing, was originated to revolve around German soldier, Paul Baumer. Trench Warfare and the gruesome reality that became the battlefield of World War 1, was depicted through the journey of Paul and his closest comrades. The movie touched upon the actual history of the war but mainly focused on the lifestyle and obstacles the soldiers experienced. The withdrawal from civilian life and the effect the War had on the soldiers became an evident problem as the movie progressed. The film was not “defeatist” towards the war and the manner in which the warfare was held but rather showed the gruesome truth of the fight, using a soldier's journey as a prime testament of how the war affected humans.
Logic Watson! Give me logic Miss Walden!" Not only was this man rude but he was also bossy; just what I needed in my life. At least his friend 'Watson' is nice enough. I wish they would really make up their minds, was it psychology they wanted or was it philosophy? Clearing my throat I spoke, "How about I get you a both, Sherlock if you don't mind telling me what you need this book for it would be a lot easier to help find you a logical selection." Sherlock seemed surprised to find someone complying so quickly after just denouncing a whole branch of science, one I found some truth in. "Well you see, I'm a consulting detective, the only one in fact, and John and I have a case regarding a man with what I believe to be 'Mommy issues' going around kidnapping single mothers. Please be quick about all of this, we need this information now!" Sherlock described. All the while he's describing this all the pieces are coming together for me, Sherlock, the curly hair, Watson, consulting detective: Sherlock Holmes the main all over the papers lately with that silly hate of
The three films we were assigned to watch this unit were different in so many ways; Mutiny on the Bounty recounted the 1789 rebellion against William Bligh aboard the HMAV Bounty, It Happened One Night told the somewhat cliche story of a wealthy woman falling for a white-collar reporter, and All Quiet on the Western Front illustrated the nature of World War 1 and its effects on those involved. Each film was not similar in plot to any other, yet each one falls on the list of the Greatest Films of All Time. I think the greatness of All Quiet on the Western Front lies in the fact that the story told a different kind of war story; instead of glorifying war and painting the characters out to be heroes, the audience was given a sad story where those
All around the world food unites families and friends, but the food that was known then is not the same as today’s food. Food has changed for the worst. Diet choices hide a very nasty truth, which is unhealthy eating habits and those habits can potentially lead to obesity or some type of disease which can be fatal. In the 1970’s obesity was not a well known term as it is in today’s society. People's weight has increased drastically over the years that now doctors have had to develop new terms in order to distinguish and identify them. Another thing that has taken a turn for the worst is the mentality this generation has nowadays. People are turning more towards fast and easy service and accessibility as opposed to quality
The daylight drew low in the Sunday sky, as the smoke of a dying cigarette diffused into the smog of a dying city. Nick Allen wasn’t a detective anymore. He had left it all behind, a long time ago. Too risky. Too thrilling. A man could get lost in that world, where he banned first and asked questions later, and the shadows of CLG team members lurked around every corner.

The short story “The Sentry” by Téa Obreht was published by the guardian on August 14, 2010. It is about a young boy named Bojan who is terribly afraid of the mastiff his father brought back home after being away at war. When he first hears that the dog is coming home with his father Bojan is ecstatic. His excitement quickly turns to disappointment when he finally sees that the dog, whose name is Kaiser, is big and fearsome. Within the first month, Kaiser had already killed and injured multiple of the neighborhood animals. At first Bojan does not know how to handle Kaiser but after some time he discovers that Kaiser reacts strongly when he starts shooting an unloaded gun at the mastiff. In other words, Bojan learns he can
