THE

RECORD

THE FINALE ISSUE

By Lucas McGartland ’14 and William O’Brien ‘14 Editors

"

It’s currently 6:23 am, Friday, the day this Record will be published. I have been up all night cramming together this layout, imagining whatever I can to fill the pages. In fact, I don’t even have the cover done yet, but I’ll cross that bridge when I get there. The question is, why would anyone put so much effort into an 8 page newspaper?

The answer is simple.

Because we wanted it to be the best newspaper ever. Volume XLIV has been painstakingly and laboriously crafted for Priory students every week, for one simple reason. I remember looking forward to The Record every Friday my first couple years at Priory. It was the best thing about an otherwise

meatless day. We wanted to make the best newspaper we could for everyone. I hope you all enjoyed it.

However, this is the end, for some permanently and others for just a few short months. We, the seniors, are on our way out and we will be replaced by a group of smaller, much less fratty seventh graders (please be welcoming to them anyway.) And it’s not just the seniors. Every year we also lose some others, such as The R e c o r d ’s o w n f a c u l t y moderator, Ms. Layton, to the free agency market. We thank her for all her help in making sure that we could put together an issue every week. And while I hope we will still be in your minds, it is really time for the juniors to become the seniors now. As I was told many times this year, your Priory education isn’t over until you graduate.

This may be true, but if you wait to start appreciating it until graduation, it’s obviously too late. So enjoy the little things about next year.

Enjoy the study halls, enjoy the new leadership roles you have in the school, enjoy the more relaxed relationships with teachers that comes after knowing them for a few years.

And I know I packed my year with a whole lot of memories, many coming from doing this fine publication right here. We would like to thank the entire Record staff for logging so many ridiculously late hours with us. And to everyone who wrote for us, thank you! We could not have made this publication without you.

Literally.

From Will personally: I would like to thank Andrew Rund for co-authoring so many “Love Doctors” with me, and

" Priory at its Finest Fr. Paul:

MOVIE S

Most"Anticipated Movies of the Summer

By Patrick Shanahan ‘17

"

As I said in my last article, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 kicked off this year’s summer movie season. And this one promises to be a very good one at that.

I’m here to give you the rundown on all the big releases, and the smaller films you should keep your eye on.

Most Anticipated Movie: Godzilla Ever since I saw the first trailer for this film, I was pumped to see it. It looked like a true throwback to the original Gojira film, with a dark tone and massive destruction. And as I began to find out more about the movie, what with its stellar cast featuring Breaking Bad’s Bryan Cranston and Kick-Ass’s Aaron Taylor-Johnson, two of my favorite modern pieces of film, my hype skyrocketed. If this movie flops, I will not only be surprised, but also massively disappointed.

Least Anticipated Movie: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles This one... just… no. Directed by the guy who gave us such masterpieces as The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2006) and Wrath of the Titans, and produced by the mic-dropping idiot who made Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, this movie is sure to offend every fan of the Ninja Turtles ever.

Megan Fox as April O’Neil… a white Shredder... Michelangelo looking like a person…

Donatello wearing goggles and a computer on his back… not even the talents of William

Fichtner and Will Arnett can save this inevitable trainwreck.

Ugh. Best Comedy: 22 Jump Street I LOVED 21 Jump Street. The sharp wit, the great performances, the writing, everything was just… so…

BRILLIANT. Naturally, the sequel to that hilarious piece of greatness has me more excited than ever for a raunchy comedy, barely beating out Seth MacFarlane’s A Million Ways to Die in the West. Let’s just hope they don’t pull a Hangover: Part III on us and make us disdain the original.

Best Animation: How to Train Your Dragon 2 Along with many other cinephiles, I was a big fan of the original Dreamworks How to Train Your Dragon. And this movie’s trailers have me interested to see how they will expand the world and still offer the heart and humor I’ve come to love and expect.

Dreamworks has proven before they can make a good sequel with Shrek 2 and Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted, but has also proven they can make bad ones with Shrek The Third, Shrek Forever After, and Kung Fu Panda 2. Please don’t disappoint me, Jay Baruchel.

Best Date Movie: The Fault in Our Stars Though I am not familiar with the source material myself, everything I’ve heard about The Fault in Our Stars book has been 100% positive. Shailene Woodley promises to be as great as ever, with her being the

one thing everyone can agree on in terms of Divergent. With the promise of heart, humor and impeccable chemistry, this movie looks to be the perfect romance to take your girlfriend to.

Best Action Movie: Dawn of the Planet of the Apes I thought Rise of the Planet of the Apes was going to be an abysmal piece of garbage meant only to be laughed at. Needless to say, I was wrong. With multifaceted and likable performances from James Franco and Andy Serkis, as well as brilliant writing and stunning special effects, I was engrossed from beginning to end. And this one looks no different. Never count out apes on horses.

Best Sci-Fi: Guardians of the Galaxy “What a bunch of a-holes.”

Marvel Studios has proven time and again that they can give us hilarious and action-packed superhero romps with their “Marvel Cinematic Universe” franchise. And leave it to James Gunn, the creator of Super and Lollipop Chainsaw to flip everything on its head.

Following a ragtag group of bounty hunters featuring Andy Dwyer from Parks and Recreation, the blue chick from Avatar turned green, Batista from WWE carrying giant knives, Vin Diesel as a tree, and Bradley Cooper as a talking raccoon toting twin machine pistols, we could be looking at the weirdest, funniest and most thrilling Marvel movie yet.

Best Superhero Movie: XMen: Days of Future Past No, I don’t consider the Guardians as superheroes. Shut up, already. As far as I’m concerned, any movie trying to rewrite the wrongs of X-Men 3: The Last Stand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine is welcome in my book. Promising an overhaul of the X-Men universe, bringing back the First Class team, the mid-2000s team, and some new characters like Blink and Sunspot, this movie could be the most epic thing of the summer if done right. However, I’m worried if they are going to pull a SpiderMan 3 here and introduce too many characters and subplots for their own good. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Best Horror Movie: Deliver Us From Evil This could be terrifying.

Directed by the guy who brought us the beautifully creepy Sinister and The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Deliver Us From Evil tells the true story of a New York cop (played by Munich’s Eric Bana) who is exposed to some of the most disturbing supernatural occurrences in history. Like any horror movie, it has the possibility of being garbage, but with the talent involved, I have high hopes for this one.

That about wraps this article up. Summer has started!

L e t ’s h o p e t h a t t h i s cinematic summer was not as abysmal as the last. See you guys next year!

" Reflections on a Teacher: Mr. Heerlein

By Antonio Petralia ’14

"

Many who have not had him in class may remember Mr. Heerlein by his manner of dress. He dressed in perfectly coordinated suits, and his tie, tied in a full Windsor, was always perfectly centered. It was easy for him to be picked out of a crowd, as he was always a model of class among the of men Priory.

Others may remember different qualities of his. They may remember monotonic, tired answers to questions that they should have known had they read the book or even just stayed awake in class. Had they been one of the few that regularly did the latter, they may remember his quick-witted humor, always employing more

than a hint of sarcasm.

However, having had Mr. Heerlein assigned as my teacher, this is my foremost memory of him, and is for what I will remember him.

Some students I have spoken to would even object to referring to him by this term, teacher. “It is not my job to teach,” Mr. Heerlein would say, “It is your job to learn.” It was our job to learn an entire precalculus course in the first trimester, before starting an AP course nearly halfway through the year. It was our job to study for hours, giving his class undivided attention, and it was our job to do this while maintaining our grades in every other class we were taking. We thought is was cruel, we thought it was unfair, we

believed that his elegant fountain pen, with which he wrote our mainly failing grades in flawless handwriting, was forged from the crushed souls of his previous students. In the first trimester of junior year, in the same hallway, we were thrown into a hell unparalleled by anything we had known since freshman year.

Though as bad as it was, it eventually started getting better, despite the material becoming progressively more complicated. Was it fair that a single forgotten word on a statistics test would drop your grade six or twelve points?

Maybe not. Did we enjoy “learning” precalculus sections at lightning pace in class, forcing us to spend hours relearning at home for just a

chance at doing well? Of course not. But that’s how it was. And we dealt with it.

Mr Heerlein did not teach like many others at Priory. He told you what was expected, you did the work, and he kept score. He lifted the entire burden of the class’s success off of his own shoulders and placed it on each of ours. We all hated him for it, but in hindsight, I must thank him. Mr. Heerlein’s Precalculus/AP Statistics course was one of the hardest courses I took at Priory, partially because of the material, but mostly because he made us grow up and take care of ourselves. He not only made us learn math, his class forced us to learn how to learn. And I don’t think there’s anything more valuable that he could have taught us.

Michael Blogs: Passing the Torch

By Michael Herman ’14 Content Editor

"

As I sit down on my porcelain throne to compose my final blog I cannot help but think over my many years at Priory.

We here at Michael Blogs have thusly decided to throw a couple tips about Priory to our loyal readers.

1) If you are ever starving and the bookstore simply won't cut it there is a room near the library where if snuck into properly one can borrow some pretty good snacks. They've

been known to have donuts, muffins and other assorted pastries. Not me but a friend of mine once told me of a time when they had chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwiches.

My friend happens to be lactose intolerant but he ate of them and has described it as the best day of his life.

2) P**p jokes will never not be funny. This is a fact. Teachers will tell you that you are being immature but this is simply not the case. P**p is inherently funny. A group of people again I was not involved decided to

all defecate in a certain rapper at our schools toilet. 5-6 people all one bathroom it was an absolute hoot. In addition most of my papers that actually got good grades were written when I was taking part in this miraculous gift.

3) Saturdays are a lot of fun to go to especially if you don't actually have one and if it's an outdoor one. I would recommend trying to go to at least 3 Saturdays a year that you didn't actually earn. Also try to get as many Saturdays for the good time.

4) I have uploaded all of the papers I wrote during my priory career to lemon party. Please don't plagiarize.

We here at Michael Blogs bid farewell to you but we want you to know that bigger and better things are in the making via a little man named Ramzi.

He's not afraid to dip his wick and he is far better than us in countless ways. He has been mastering the art of blog writing since he was a young lad. I take great pride in handing the future of the Record to him. Pax

Because they change things. They push the human race forward.

Meet Priory’s Swans: Tristan and Isolde

By Andrew Cammon ‘14 Editor-in-Chief

"

As many of you have probably noticed, being the alert and well-rested Priory students that you are, there are two new residents at the Priory pond, two new yearling mute swans. The swans, Tristan and Isolde, were donated to Priory by the Fathers of the Class of 2014 (the Fathers of the Seniors) and were picked out and named by Father Michael. I emailed, Fr. Michael about these new additions to the Priory family.

Q: The names of the swans, Tristan and Isolde, are very unique. What made you choose those particular names?

A: Tristan and Isolde are a pair

of tragic lovers from medieval literature. Very reminiscent of Lancelot and Guinevere. One of Wagner's operas is Tristan and Isolde. The previous swan couple was also named after a tragic medieval couple: Abelard and Heloise.

Q: How can you tell them apart?

A: Tristan, the male, is banded on the left ankle, while Isolde is banded on the right. This will be helpful when they are on land. For the moment and a several moments to come, Tristan still has some adolescent plumage, which is beige. (see pictures above) Isolde is pure white, as is appropriate for her virginal virtue. Tristan appears slightly soiled, but that is just the immature plumage which will

gradually become pure white as well.

Q: Does the swan’s habitat have a name?

A: Their renovated love nest is named Neuschwanstein, (new swan stone), on account of its resemblance to the original. Neuschwanstein is the name of the beautiful castle in Bavaria built by King Ludwig.

Q: There was a lot of work going on around the swan’s habitat before their arrival.

What renovations were needed?

A: Our Neuschwanstein needed a new roof and some beams replaced that were eaten by termites. The area was cleared of brush. graded so water wouldn't run thru the nesting area and surrounded by a fence to slow down the coyotes.

Q: What were your reasons for choosing this particular species of swan, the mute swan?

A: Mute swans are what we had before. They are hardy, beautiful, and quiet. Their only sound is a snort or a hiss.

Q: Is there a possibility that we could have more swans in the future?

A: They will be ready to breed in two years, so no cygnets possible until 2016.

Q: How many swans could the pond support?

A: I doubt the pond could carry more than 4 adult swans and maybe not even that. Yearlings would have to be sold or given away. I’m happy to take requests for the “baby” swans to come...first come, first served.

Get Ready for The Record Volume 45!

By Bobby Donnelly ‘15 Editor-in-Chief Elect

"

We l c o m e t o T h e R e c o rd 2014-2015! All of the new editors, as well as myself, are looking forward to putting out another year of quality issues of The Record. Let me first start by introducing everyone. Next year’s crew of senior editors consists of Patrick Lane, Stephen Millsap, Alex Hill, Trey Erbs, and myself.

While we are not aiming to re-invent the wheel next year,

look for some subtle changes from Layout Editor, Tommy Rosebrough. It has been made obvious this past year that Luke McGartland and The Record stepped up their layout game, and Tommy has some great ideas to improve this already established “killer layout.”

While some fantastic weekly articles are departing alongside the seniors, such as Will O’Brien, Eric Stange, and Michael Herman, fear not!

Rather, look forward to the weekly musings of Patrick

Lane, a man who is never lost for words and can surely bring a few chuckles to readers of The Record all over the school.

As well as Patrick’s ramblings, we are excited to introduce an anonymous ‘Ask Shirley’ type column. While I cannot reveal the true identity of who the author may or may not be, expect to laugh, cry, and quite possibly consider re-thinking your entire life.

We are also thrilled have frequent, past Record contributors Alex Hill and Trey

Erbs who will surely keep you up to date on any and all issues athletic and political.

All in all, I am excited for the future of this fine publication. I encourage all students who would like to write for the Record or submit questions to ‘Shirley,’ to send an email to us at theprioryrecord@gmail.com.

Whether you are in the high school or the junior school, we want to hear your voice! Thank you so much, and I can’t wait to get started next year!

And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Final "K$ Music Review: Ok Go and More

By Austin Krueger ’14 Staff Writer

"

The end of the school year draws near. The students are all studying for their exams (except for the Seniors, many of whom were finished with school a week ago). Last night/ this morning, The Record editors were hard at work putting the finishing touches on the last issue of the year. In just a few short months, The Record, and all of Priory, will be in the capable hands of a new class of Seniors. All things in this world, however great, must eventually come to an end. Sadly, this holds true for my weekly music reviews.

That’s right, this is my last article for The Record. It’s been a great four years, but I’m afraid it’s all over with this last issue. My musical selections this week follow with the aforementioned theme of the “changing of the guard,” so to speak. First is a song that hold a world record. To be exact, it holds the world record for the most costume changes in a single-take, unedited music video with 18. The song is called “Everything Changes” by Eytan and the Embassy, and it speaks to how you should never give up on anything in life, because everything is always changing and you might just find an opportunity where

previously there was none.

When you listen to this catchy song for the first time, watch the music video along with it.

The lead singer takes on the guises of 18 different musicians throughout modern history, starting with the likes of Buddy Holly and Bob Dylan and Elvis, progressing to Prince and Billie Joe Armstrong, and finishing with a transition from Lady Gaga to Deadmau5. To finish up this article, the year, and my career with the Record, I have “This Too Shall Pass” by OK Go. These two bands, OK Go and Eytan and the Embassy, are actually pretty similar musically and in their creative use of music videos. OK Go is best

known for their 2005 video for “Here It Goes Again,” which features little more than a few treadmills. The band has built a reputation of producing great, innovative, and often lowbudget videos. I personally love “This Too Shall Pass,” both as a song and as a video (it has actually has two music videos, one of which is a HUGE Rube Goldberg Machine). Both of these bands write incredibly catchy songs with a certain upbeat, poppy flare that makes for a very full, complete sound.

I highly recommend both OK Go and Eytan and the Embassy.

If you like one, odds are you’ll like the other. And now, this too must pass. Goodbye folks!

The Best Things About Summer

By Rohith Perla ‘15

"

Ah yes, it’s that time of year again, where the birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and the temperature is 80 degrees outside. I know that it is not how it is right now, but I’m talking about summer.

You have more free time, because

school is not taking it up, many more things that you can do, and the days are getting longer.

I think that summer is a necessary break from school because--excuse me if I sound rather “corny”--you and school are, in a way, in a relationship, and each relationship has to be separated by a great distance at

some point, and the distance makes it stronger. That is the same case with school. Also, with that time, you can use it to develop some skills. You can be productive by going out and working, or volunteering, or teaching yourself a new language. There are so many things that you can do in the

summer, and if you keep yourself occupied, then it won’t get stale so quickly. So make the most of your summer.

That’s all for this year, and if you don’t mind, I’ve got places to go, books to read, and movies to watch, so that you can be entertained by them next year. Peace out.

Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
