To those that will walk these halls in yearsto come, heres some advice that might make your

four years go a little faster:

1. It may sound clich, but learn to lovesome part of school to give you something to lookforward to each and every day. Try to connect yoursecret school passion to as many subjects as pos-sible to keep your interest going.

2. Pick one day a week to dress a littlenicer than your day-to-day; it will make you feelmore confident and happy and even earn you a fewcompliments!

3. Apply for as much as you can- schol-arships, programs, awards, and more are always awelcome gem in the monotony of everyday school-work.

4. Fill your schedule with electivesnot only to help you get into college, but also to

keep you from driving yourself insane watching theclock in study hall. You may even find your hiddeninterest in an elective!

5. Do your homework Trust me, itnever hurts.

6. Take an AP class to challenge your-self. These courses dig into a topic with unprec-edented fervor and youre sure to learn somethingyou never knew before! Walking out of that APtest room is one of the most successful feelings ofall.

7. Find the good in every moment.If you only remember the negatives than your

high school experience is going to stink.

8. Do something fun during holi-day weeks to break up the academic droll. Dec-orate your locker, make some holiday cards oreven bring in some candy to share with friendsin order to brighten up everyones day.

9. Take pictures throughout highschool so you can look back and see how muchyou have accomplished and how you havechanged.

10. Collect memorabilia from con-certs, classes, outings, and more and stick themin a box to look at later on down the road.

11. Read some books; it makes yousound smarter in interviews and day-to-dayconversations.

12. Take a technology break tocleanse your mind; I feel physically better whenI avoid social networks and technology for alittle while.

13. Keep track of the news becausethere is a world beyond Southold and peopleexpect you to at least recognize some outsideconflicts and events.

14. Save your dollars so that youcan avoid unnecessary stress later on when youwant to go on the Europe trip, buy a car, go to

college, buy some new clothing or video games, ortake a weekend trip with friends.

15. Reach out to new students and onesyouve never talked to; they could be your bestfriends but youll never know unless you try!

16. Pick a couple of clubs and do every-thing with them! This will look good for college andbuild up your dedication and understanding of theclubs goals.

17. Go for a run, a bike, a stroll. Its a de-stresser and a breath of fresh air. And with that stink-ing fitness test coming back to bite us, we might ac-tually have to be fit by the end of the year

18. Start looking at colleges at the end ofsophomore year or the summer before junior year.Check out the awesome college search tools on Na-viance and College Board for a start!

19. Visit schools that you really like in

your junior year so you can change, add to, andtake away from the list of schools you plan to applyto.

20. Apply to about ten schools that youlove. Have some high goals and some lower onesand hopefully youll be happily surprised!

21. Start looking for scholarships at theend of junior year!! There is too much money outthere for anyone to be paying for college by them-selves. Some of the applications that take a long timemay be worth the $5,000 that you may earn!

SOUTHOLD HIGH SCHOOL 02 VOLUME XVIII ISSUE III

Dear Editor,

I just wanted to take a minute to ap-

preciate Mrs. Johnson and all of the many things

she does for our school. Not once have I left the

library disappointed, or without the help of not

only a book, but perhaps some guidance. That is

of course discounting the unfortunate occasions

when she is not there when I go to visit. From

intriguing lessons on how to navigate the VRC, to

book discussions and suggestions, I have learned

tremendously throughout my few years here and

Im sure that I am not the only one. Libraries offer

so much to schools and to communities, so much

more than just books.

Not only will the intellects of usstudents be lost without her next year, but so too

will the joy in seeing her warm smile every visit

to the library. Enjoy your venture to Germany

Mrs. Johnson. We will miss you greatly next

year.

With love,

Jackie Davey

Dear Editor,

Personally, I think that teachers in

this school tend to give way too much homework.

I take a lot of pride in my work, causing me to feel

the need to do all of my assignments to the best of

my ability. This is a hard topic to argue, though,because I know that there are few people besides

me in this school who care as much about their

work as I do.

I feel that I always have to do all

of my work to the best of my ability, so I am often

forced to lose sleep in order to fulfill this standard.

I am miserable each night when I come to the real-

ization that I will be up past 10:00 and up early the

next morning usually around 5:00 just to finish

the work that my teachers intended to only take

twenty minutes per subject. On the other hand,

though, there are many people who take a half

hour total to finish their homework, yet they re-

ceive the same amount of credit. So which is bet-

ter? Caring too much or not caring at all?

Yours,

Katie Hunstein

Dear Editor,

It has come to my attention that be-

fore any type of free period, we need to get a pass

to wherever we are going, and if we are late to that

free period, we are either written up or it counts

as a late. To me, this seems unfair. How are stu-

dents supposed to run to get a pass AND be on

time to class? What if someone wants to go to thelibrary and has study hall in the junior high wing?

I know, from experience, that there is no way to

get to class on time.

Most teachers tell us to go during

lunch or some other period, but why would we do

that if we just get yelled at for being late to that

class? This whole get-a-pass-but-dont-be-late-

thing really gets students, including myself, con-

fused and angry. No one wants to waste their lunch

period wandering around the school, trying to get

a pass for a future class. Even then, we are yelled

at, Get to class! or stop wandering around! We

never win! We have a very unfair disadvantage in

this school.

I think, if we present a pass to our

teacher and we are late because we went to go getthat pass, we shouldnt be yelled at or given a lec-

ture about if all the other students can get here

on time, you should too and be denied going to

where that pass is to. We should be praised for go-

ing somewhere and doing other work instead of

just sitting in a classroom and wasting 45 minutes

of the day in study hall.

Sincerely,

Kelsea Cassone

Dear Editor,

Have you seen the fantastic and ex-

tremely artistic photographs and paintings hang-

ing around the school? These are all due to the

fabulous teacher that goes by the name Mr. Gos-

nell. If you hear a southern accent, you already

know that it is Mr. Gosnell. If you hear the click-

ing of a camera, you know that it is Mr. Gosnell

and if you smell the aroma of paint in the air, it

is most likely due to Mr. Gosnell. He is an ideal

teacher in my eyes and in the eyes of many oth-

ers as well. He is always there to lend his artistic

helping hand in any situation and he is just an easy

guy to talk to if your day is going bad. He can turn

your frown upside down in other words. I would

like to sincerely thank Mr. Gosnell for everythingthat he has taught my classmates and I wish him

the best in further years to come.

Sincerely,

Evan Miller

Dear Editor,

Do you think students are learning

in 1st period or still sleeping? I basically roll out

of bed and drag myself to school. My mind and

even myself arent fully up and functioning until

10:00 in the morning, which is why school should

start later in the day. If school started later, we

teens who stay up late at night doing homeworkwould be able to get the correct amount of sleep

that we need. Who knows, maybe we would even

enjoy going to school. Also, in the morning, some

students dont have enough time to eat breakfast

because stumbling out of bed took too long. If

school started later, I bet you most kids would be

able to consume breakfast. Besides all of that,

were not actually learning and taking in what is

being taught because we are so tired in the morn-

ing. If we started later, we might actually learn

something.

Thanks,

Katelyn Suskevich

STUDENT VOICE


Dear Editor,

Now a days everyone has Smartphones,

whether if its IPhones, androids, or any other

Smartphone it will connect to the internet. Every

time I want to go to the computer lab its booked

because of classes doing simple research on some-

thing they could be doing a project on. If we had

free wifi, students and teachers could easily con-nect from their Smartphones, IPads, or laptops

and do their research right in the classroom instead

of wasting all the computers in the computer lab

on it.

People who actually have to write

their papers and use Word to do PowerPoints are

now having that time snatched away from them. I

understand that we have BYOD (Bring Your Own

Device), but you need a password for it and only

select classes get to participate. Why not just make

the wifi connection public for everyone if its al-

ready there? If anything it will probably cause kids

to actually accomplish the work that they acquire

from the teacher or maybe even finish it early be-

cause they can start it right away in the classroom

instead of being distracted.If we had free wifi, it would make

students lives so much easier along with making

their time more useful. Since students lives would

be easier, in conclusion so would the teachers.

Everything is through wireless technology in to-

days world, so why doesnt Southold just warp

into the 21st century already? Or at least give it

a try. If it doesnt work out and they see it being

taken advantage of, they can always set the wifiback up with a password rather than having it pub-

lic to everyone. This decision wouldnt have to

be permanent, but it would definitely be worth a

try.

Yours,

Katelyn Suskevich

Dear Editor,

Too often, when I go into the up-

stairs boys bathroom, I look into a urinal and see

trash staring back at me. Why does this keep hap-

pening? Ive seen toilet paper, slugs, fliers, pen-

cils, pens, and coins; anything capable offitting

into the urinal. Im always confused when I seeit. What do these people want? Are they angry

at the school? Do they want to make more work

for the custodians? Do they actually think theyre

being funny? Like some idiot will walk into the

bathroom and laugh because theres trash in the

urinal? Its not funny at all; its not even a prank.

Theres no creativity involved; its just nonsense.

I demand to know who is responsible for this. I

picture a lanky, misshapen bunch of pre- adoles-

cents from the junior high who gather around theurinals and cackle to watch something be thrown

in. Then they scurry out of the bathroom, snorting

and chuckling to each other, thinking this is a hi-

larious prank theyve just pulled. My other suspect

could be a lone vandal, who, with a heart full of

hatred, goes into the bathroom with the intentions

of vandalism. To whoever is doing this, just stop

it. Your lame little gags are going to force us all

to sign into the bathroom again. And if youre still

thinking of doing it when this paper comes out,

just know that you have me on your trail.

Dan Stahl

In what used to be the weight room, some

time ago, students huddled around a computer in

their electricity class. They watched in fascination

as a picture uploaded onto the screen line by line. In

excitement they called their teacher over; this was

the beginning of the internet at Southold school

district. And it was all thanks to one man. For 33

years, Sal Campo has used his innovative teach-

ing style to get students interested in his classes.

Starting off as the manager of two fried chicken

restaurants in Islip, he came to Southold to teach

shop, but he has done much more than that. Since

then, he has been responsible for bringing inter-

net into our school. He has brought in computer

programs like Adobe Photoshop and started new

classes like engineering, all with the goal of mim-

icking careers and getting students prepared for

their futures. When I sat down to interview Mr.

Campo, it was clear that what was most important

to him was seeing his students happy.

Mr. Campo has kept up with the times and

career trends to keep his students engaged. I try

to find projects that are interesting to keep stu-

dents motivated and to develop a good rapport so

students feel comfortable with me and the other

students. Mr. Campo has always strived to be on

the cutting edge of technology. Starting off doing

woodworking and small engine repair, he eventu-

ally saw potential in computers, As technology

advanced I began to teach myself how to build,

how to use, and how to teach computer software.

In earlier years I mainly taught AutoCAD which

is the industry standard for Technical drawing and

design. In technology we went from welding metal

and sawing wood to adding the component of fully

integrating computer technology. We went from

using a pencil and drafting table to using industry

standard software like AutoCad for architectural

house drawing plans and engineering and design.

Mr. Campo loves to see that his methods

are working, which is why some of his fondest

memories are of seeing kids get excited about

their learning. And feels he has achieved his

goals if students come back to Southold to thank

A Southold Fixture RetiresBy: Dan Stahl

me for my influence in their lives.

Credit for new courses and technology in

the school can also be given to Mr. Campo. When

asked what he was proud of in his years teaching

here, he responded, Im proud of getting tech

support going in the school district. It started as an

unofficial club fixing computers. Getting an engi-

neering course and going in the school district wasalso a big step for me; it was another class that

could get students ready for a career. Starting the

school webpage in 1997 was also a proud moment

for me. Mr. Campo showed the walls of his room

and said how all of the programs displayed rep-

resented some sort of career; technical drawing,

animation, architectural design, all possible career

paths.

It is clear the students have come first in

Mr. Campos career. He has made it a priority that

students arent picked on in his class, and he has

always had the goal of giving students useful skills

that will help them in their careers. His to-do list

when he retires is too long to fit in the paper, and

for new teachers starting off, he recommends to,

try not to get caught up in the bureaucracy of the

profession. Focus on what youre really there for:

the kids, Try and make learning fun for them, they

will learn more.

Thank you for all your hard work Mr.

Campo. Your legacy will live on in all youve

done for this school.

RETIRING


Most of us like the teachers that dont give a lot of home-

work and are easy going. Mrs. Englebright gives homework almost

every night. She also has very high expectations for her students.

Yet anyone who has been a student in Southold knows that taking

Earth Science with Mrs.Englebright makes you a better student.

Thats why she was by far my favorite teacher freshman year.

Mrs. Englebright has been teaching for thirty-eight years

and Southold Jr/Sr high school was lucky enough to have her for

twenty-one of those years. In college, Mrs. Englebright majored in

earth science and space science. As far back as she can remember

she has always wanted to be a teacher.

Education has gone through many changes since Mrs.

Englebright first entered the classroom. She believes, One of

the biggest changes is the emphasis on testing-there are too many

tests given at every grade level which has had a negative impact

on the classroom experience. Another big change is the inclusion

classes. All students were grouped in separate classes by ability

when I began teaching the mid 1970s.

Besides the change in curriculum, the change in her students

was also incredible. Mrs. Englebright turned the average just-get-

ting-by student into a straight A student. She pushed her studentsto do great because she knew everyone could be the best as long as

they applied themselves. As students, we complain about use-

less information that we have to learn. Earth science is relevant to

everyday life. For example, weather is Mrs.Englebrights favorite

topic to teach due to its relevance and how often you use it in life.

The great friendships I have made, is how Mrs.Eng-

Goodbye Mrs. Englebright: Our Earth Science GuruBy: Cali Long

lebright described her fondest memories as a teacher.She is retiring, but the legacy of her teaching skills, great classroom, prep

room, and office will remain. She plans on spending her time playing with her

grandchildren, spending time on the beach in Florida and hiking the mountains

in upstate New York. Mrs. Englebright will be truly missed and she ends her

year with advice for prospective teachers: Work hard every day and have high

expectations for your students.

Long Time Veteran Teacher Mr. Selander RetiresBy: Nicole Busso

As we say our goodbyes to the seniors at the end of the school year,we also must say farewell to many other familiar faces of Southold HighSchool. One of these faces includes a man who has walked through thesehallways for longer than Ive walked the earth. A 30-year teacher of theSouthold-Greenport school districts, it has come time to say goodbye to Mr.Gary Selander.

Growing up in Queens, Mr. Selander remembers family and friendsdiscussing current events, politics and history at family gatherings. He wasfascinated by the wide range of opinions that were expressed by the differ-ent people he knew. At this young age, a love for social studies began totake root. Yet before beginning his career as a teacher, Mr. Selander took a

job as a tax auditor for the IRS, working for the U.S. Treasury department.Eventually he wound up at the Sagamore Childrens Center in Melville,

working with children.As a new teacher in the public schools, Mr. Selander began his career asa Social Studies teacher. He eventually became the Special Education/In-clusion teacher in all content areas for the Southold school district. He alsotook over as the interim Jr. High and High School band director and MusicStyles teacher before Mr. Himmelman was hired by the district.

Creating a legacy here in our little school district, his fondest momentsinclude the times when ideas click, when that light bulb goes off in astudents head and all the pieces of the puzzle come rushing together. Heexclaims, When students confidence levels increase, you can see thatpositive change in their demeanor. He also feels gratification when hisex-students come back to express how appreciative they are for his helpand encouragement.

In his free time, Mr. Selander has been a jazz musician and has performedfor countless audiences, including Hilary Clinton. After retirement heplans to continue his work as a musician and enjoy the little things life stillhas in store for him.

Though he has such an amazing track record here at Southold, Mr.Selanders life and legacy will not end after he departs these hallways. Hehopes that all students remember him as that kind, supportive man whoalways encouraged them to reach their full potential.

Some last words and advice from Mr. Selander to aspiring youngteachers include; Keep learning! Have fun with the kids and dont beafraid to experiment with new ideas and methodologies in the classroom!

Thank you Mr. Selander for all you have contributed to this schooldistrict and good luck to you in all of your future endeavors! You certainlywill be missed.

RETIRINGA Farwell to our Welcoming Presence

By Jackie Davey

The lovely Mrs. Karam is leaving us this

year. We will miss her bright smile early each

morning, and her diligence in always keeping

our hallways safe. For twelve years she has

brightened both the elementary and the high

school with her presence. One step at a time,

she has made our school district a better place.

Her simple smile and greeting as we enter the

building goes a long way- especially on a tough

day or on a dragging Monday. The Sentinel in-

terviewed Mrs. Karam about her thoughts as

she enters this new phase of her life.

Did you have any other jobs before you came

to work here?

I worked as a Social Worker for 11 years,counseling teenagers, adoptive parents, and hardto place foster children. I then opened my ownestate liquidation business in conjunction with anantique shop. I conducted antique appraisals forattorneys in Akron, and Hudson, Ohio for another15 years while matriculating for my M.Ed. at The

Kent State University.When you were in high school, what were your

biggest dreams?

In high school aside from a few delusionaldreams about being discovered as an actress,etc, I knew that I wanted to work with people orwith animals in need of help. Growing up in myhome there was always the stray dog or kitten.This would send my father ranting, but somehowthose abandoned pets always managed to stay. Ihave always wanted to travel and have enjoyedliving outside the Continental United States ontwo occasions.

What are some of you fondest memories work-

ing here?

Helping to establish the Southold SchoolsGarden and being the Adviser to the Farmers Mar-ket for our student volunteers are two of my mostmemorable achievements. This group of studentsis quite independent. They forged ahead with theprojects that interested them most about the Mar-ket. Choosing their own projects increased theirmotivation and critical thinking skills ten fold.Students learned about local history, farm eco-nomics, photography, writing, displaying andselling produce, keeping books, interacting withthe public, learning sound nutrition, and they arenow beginning to do a fund raising project. Theseare bright and wonderful young people from the6th grade and Middle School, and they are truly

capable of projects well above their grade level.Being the liaison for projects that blend upper el-ementary and middle school curriculum with thegarden has been a most challenging but rewardingexperience that has benefited these students. Wehope these projects will increase in the future.

Then of course there is THE CLASS OF 2010. Ev-eryone knows I will always hold fond memoriesfor that class!

What are some of the biggest changes youve

experienced while working here?

The change in the administration was a long timecoming. I am mostly satisfied with that change al-

though currently I think it is sometimes difficult toknow where one stands. Still, such an atmospherecalls for all of us to be more thoughtful about ouractions, and that ,I think ,is part of the nature ofany good learning institution that is attempting tofoster responsible behavior.

Does working at the welcome desk give you a

different perspective on the school?

Unlike some people, I have enjoyed mytime at the welcome desk. It has been a pleasureto meet and talk with the parents of students andcommunity members. My thought is that the at-

mosphere at the entrance to school should be wel-coming and pleasant. I think parents, communitymembers, and students should view the school asa place where they belong and that they respect.Most students are responsive and respectful. Theystop by for a visit or to ask for some occasionaladvice. I have tried to model responsible social be-havior and have encouraged them to examine theirconduct and to make good choices. I would liketo say that the Avon Calling bell is bothersometo both teachers and those at the welcome desk. Ihope that many of the students receive their ownswipe I.D. card by the fall!

What do you plan to do after you retire?

I have no plans for a 2nd career after I re-tire. I live in a home where the water, the sunsetsand the stars will offer me quiet entertainment foryears to come. I do plan to sleep until about 9:30a.m. everyday for a few months. The summerwill be a time for visiting with friends and fam-ily. I will probably go to the city often and then to

Maine. I will also be going to Ohio in early July tocelebrate the retirement of a very close friend whowas my daughters high school biology teacher.I will never forget the day I visited the class, andthey were dissecting sharks! In early fall I will goback to Ohio to celebrate the retirement of anothergood friend who is leaving her job as the Execu-tive Director of the Tuesday Musical Program atThe University of Akron. It seems as if we all hadthe same idea at the same time! Mid-Fall or nextspring brings Paris into my sights. I think that isenough for now. I am getting tired thinking aboutall of this!

What do you think will be your legacy?

I have no illusions about leaving a legacyat Southold High School. I think that will not hap-pen. If certain students and a few teachers think

of me as an open minded and intelligent personwho buffered some difficult times for people andwho had a love of students, a respect for teachersand staff, and a desire to see us all make ourselvesproud, think fairly, and act justly: well that wouldbe a lot to ask but it is something to aim for. Try it.Be well everyone. Au revoir!

Thank you, Mrs. Karam, for everything

that you have done for our school and for us

students; for giving courage to those in doubt,

for helping people find their way, and for turn-

ing every bad day into a good one with your

kind words and encouragement.

A hearty congratulation goes out to the staffof Southolds Sentinel who came home from

the Long Island Press High School Journal-ism Award ceremony big winners. The eventwas held on May 22nd at Hofstra Universitywhere schools from across Long Island com-peted in a myriad of categories. Over 1,200

Reviews

Are you sick of the cycled radio hits, thesongs that you hear almost every five minutesof your life? Dont forget that there are crazyamounts of artists that need your attention, thatfrankly deserve more attention than any of the

artists on the radio. This list will guide you onthe discovery on new bands that are worth yourtime.

First an Australian band that blends nos-talgic rock and Neo-psychedelia, Tame Impala.Their new sophomore LP Lonerism, Tame Im-pala has been praised by Wayne Coyne of TheFlaming Lips, Tyler the Creator, and Danny De-vito. Tracks to check out would have to be El-ephant and Feels like we only go backwards.This little band from Perth is run by Kevin Park-er who basically plays every instrument in therecording process but gets help from his buddiesto play live. His buddies also run bands downin Perth such as Pond (not confusing it with thegrunge band from Portland) and The Growl. Im-pressions are that they run their own little com-

mune of musicians in Perth. This band will wantyou to invent a time machine just so you can goback to 60s and listen to the music that influ-enced Tame Impala.

Grizzly Bear is not a new band but a

great one. This Brooklyn band has been aroundsince 2007. They use their folk sound to reachthe heart of every listener. All extremely talent-ed they have mastered more than three albumsgiving them a cult following. The albums to defi-nitely check out would have to be Veckaimestand their most recent LP, Shields. With theirsoaring harmonies they leave the listener to re-ally appreciate every song they have created. Ifyou are in the mood to chill to soft folk music,Grizzly Bear has to be the best option. If you area fan of heavier music, Grizzly Bear might beless appealing to you but are a band to be ap-preciated.

Another band that it not so new but de-serves infinite credit has to be English BandFoals. This band was titled Math- rock with

their debut Antidotes back in 2008, but now theyhave shied away from that title. Their most fa-mous song is Spanish Sahara which is on theirsecond album Total Life Forever, a seven min-ute song of emotion. Many worried that they

wouldnt be able to follow up on such a suc-cess of that song but with their recent albumthat came out in February showed that they canconquer all. Their album titled Holy Fire hashit singles such as Inhaler and My number. LikeRadiohead, they never stick with their sound, ev-ery album is unique. I recently saw them in NewYork City in and they have to be the best liveband I have seen. They know how to control thestage, making it their territory.

Search YouTube, search iTunes, searchthrough any vessel. These three bands are onlya few out of a whole world of music that has notbeen discovered. It takes minutes to come acrossa fantastic band of any genre, so get out there andsearch!

Everyone knows that a rainy dayis the best movie day. And on a crumby week-end, you can see the best movie on the bestmovie day: The Great Gatsby directed by BazLuhrmann.

Sitting in a theater, you can feelthe anticipation. Looking around the theater,you also can see that the average movie-goersage was about seventy. I took this as a good sign.If these people came out of their home to see this

movie, based on a book they read in their child-hood, it must be good.

The first five minutes into themovie, I was hooked. The Great Gatsby is lacedwith adventure, romance, betrayals, and mys-tery. The perfect combination. Costume design,music, acting and cinematography were all top

notch. The music is modern, but is tweaked tofit the 1920s mood of The Great Gatsby. Theacting is phenomenal, and with a cast of Leon-ardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Joel Edgerton,Carey Mulligan, and Isla Fisher, how could it notbe?

As always, the movie is minutelyaltered from the hit novel, as is every other moviebased upon a well selling book. Compared to thebook, these changes are very miniscule. In fact,

as a bonus for the Gatsy die-hards, the movie usesdirect quotes from the novel.

All aspects in focus, this movie isOscar material. So drop the ten dollars out of yourwallet, and take a trip to the cinema. Enjoy thetwo hour hit that took over the box office. TheGreat Gatsby is a must see.

Last weekend, J.J. Abrams new-est movie, Star Trek: Into the Darkness, hitthe box office. Chris Pine returns to his role asJames Tiberius Kirk, as does Zachary Quinto as

Mr. Spock. They team up as the captain andfi

rstofficer who boldly go where no one has gonebefore.

This time around, a new mem-ber to the Star Trek family was added. BenedictCumberbatch, previously seen in BBCs Sher-lock and soon to be appearing in the next Hob-bit movie, perfectly fit his role as the evil vil-lain, Khan. Fans across the nation seem to beaccepting him well as the new face in the fran-chise.

The movie is fun. Even whenits at its heaviest, it never loses sight of the factthat its an adventure story. The pace is excel-

lent two-and-a-half hours just zip by andthe script keeps a light touch. In the midst ofbattle, or dramatic scenes, the characters knowhow to throw in a joke to lighten the mood. It

is visually stunning. The color and clarity arespectacular. It will be very hard to beat in theupcoming year. The music is absolutely beauti-ful; definitely worth downloading and listeningto by itself.

Overall, fans were happy with therepresentation of their beloved series, but a fewthing could have been done better. For example,in the new movie, the team goes to the planetKronos, where we are introduced to the Klingonsfor the first time in the new movie series. How-ever, many people werent happy with the designfor the aliens. Breaking with tradition, the de-signers didnt match the design from the original

series. Also, the costume designers added pierc-ings, which were perceived as out of characterfor the species.

All things considered, this is still

a movie worth seeing. Critics give it four outoffive stars. Its not only for lovers of the se-ries, but for anyone who enjoys a good adven-ture.

This y ear varsity Boys Baseball had a

very exciting run. The team entered the playoffs

with a record of 12-5. Coach Mike Carver said hecould not be more pleased with his boys. From

the beginning of the season, Coach Carver talked

about how this years team is a team of for the

future. Making the playoffs is just some icing on

the cake for these hard working boys exclaimed

Carver.

During their playoff run, the First Settlers

were able to send Port Jeff to the losers brack-

et with a final score of 16-6. The Settlers were

able to put away Port Jeff in the bottom of the 6th,

where Southold scored 10 runs, 8 of them being

with two outs.

Next, Southold traveled to West Hamp-

ton to battle Pierson. Sadly, the Settlers lost to

the Whalers with a score of 2-1. Piersons ace letup his first earned run of the season, but unfortu-

nately, the Settlers werent able to come around

with the win. Coach Carver was not disheartened.

I have never been so proud of a baseball team in

my life today. We gave it all we had and we were

perfect in the field, which is why it was so close.

We may have lost, but next year we are

going to get new bats and win States without a

doubt said junior captain Anthony Fedele, al-

ready looking forward to another great season.

Congratulations Coach Carver for earning your150th win. We wish you many more in the future.
