Since the construction of the Breen Center for musical and dramatic performances and the development of the fine arts curriculum over the course of the last decade, the Ignatius artistic community has experienced a renaissance inside and outside of the classroom.
The revival is especially apparent for student musical groups.
From Joey Sap to Pluto Reinstatement Committee, many recent alums have made their mark on Ignatius through their bands. The torch for this year’s senior class has been passed to Keyhole Gallery, kickstarted by bassist Matt Nicolay ‘14 and drummer Jackson O’Brien ‘14 two years ago.
Vocalist Anthony Monaco, a sophomore at Buckeye Schools, soon joined and since then, the band has gigged at local clubs Peabody’s and The Foundry, as well as Crocker Park and the Sullivan Gymnasium at St. Ignatius.
The band cites influences that span across the rock genre for their sound, including Primus, Phish, and The Who. Their repertoire allows them to start shows off with popular hits, then appeal to the crowd at hand. O’Brien said that they try to appeal to what their audiences will know.
“First we play a song that everyone can get into, like ‘Killing in the Name’ by Rage Against the Machine,” O’Brien said.
Aside from playing gigs, Keyhole Gallery also writes original songs.
Nicolay said that the group’s writing process as “very informal.”
“One person comes up with his part, and the rest of the band just figures the rest of the song out,” Nicolay said.
Monaco is the primary lyricist, though all three contribute to the music.
Keyhole has already made a name for itself, attracting a tribute band called Osteo Genesis Imperfecto led by football star Matt Colella ‘14 and former bandmate Ryan Hargis ‘14.
The band is active on Facebook and Twitter and has demo sales available upon request.
When I walked into Bon Bon Cafe, I was immediately struck by the atmosphere, an intense concentration of the hip, trendy Ohio City neighborhood feel.
Bon Bon is is the polar opposite of the traditional mom and pop restaurant. Everything about the restaurant cultivates the intended atmosphere: the eclectic soundtrack that varies from Thriller to ‘50s rock, and even sports a rare appearance by the quality track “Why Don’t We Do It in the Road” from the White Album by the Beatles.
Drinks are served in mason jars, and the patrons match the unconventional decor – while I was eating my meal, a dead ringer for Spock dropped by to grab a pastry. The effect of the ambience is to welcome the diner into a unique universe, one that is simultaneously urban and affable.
Your reviewer digs into a helping of Eggs Benedict (also pictured above). During “Breakfast Happy Hour,” from 2pm-8pm, you can order this or one of their other entrees for just $5.00.
I sampled 3 different entrees from Bon Bon’s breakfast menu: the Morning Tacos, Eggs Benedict, and Vanilla Bean French Toast.
The Morning Tacos came with a side of nachos and fruity salsa. The tacos themselves were overflowing with bacon, fontina, black beans, cilantro, and scrambled eggs. Runny eggs prevented the tacos from becoming overly dry. As I am used to the traditional tomato blend, the blended-fruit salsa was a pleasant twist on a familiar theme.
The Eggs Benedict were served on the the traditional English muffin, alongside Canadian bacon that came with a side of crispy, diced potatoes. Although the potatoes themselves were bland – generally the case everywhere – a serving of the house’s hot sauce gave them much needed flavor. But for those afraid of spice, fear not, because the initial zingy kick quickly dissipates into a lighter smoky taste.
The Vanilla Bean French Toast, though, topped the cake. Served with Sweetened Mascarpone, a creamy cheese, Banana Compote, slices of banana immersed in sugar syrup, the French Toast were more dessert than breakfast, backed up by toasted walnuts that gave the dish savory undertones. The French toast itself inflated in size because of the ample eggy coating, and each bite of it offered a delectable combination.
The meals are each as distinct as the restaurant and the Ohio CIty neighborhood itself. Not only are the meals unique but the price is beyond reasonable at $5 for all breakfast entrees from Tuesday to Saturday during the afternoon 2 to 8 p.m. window. Though the winter season hours for the kitchen go only til 3:00 p.m.
Although this deal only covers breakfast meals, I find them to be as filling and satisfying as the lunch entrees, and I certainly recommend that you take advantage of the offer. If you find you really love the Bon Bon style, go for one of the lunches – somewhat pricier, averaging around ten dollars.
Bon Bon is a great place to go after school and relax to eat on the cheap, as I learned when visited with three friends. If tacos, pastries and retro vibes are your thing, give it a shot. Carpe diem, and Carpe Bon Bon.
Matthew Colella ‘14 may be one of the more modest men around campus. Not only is he a vital part of the varsity football team and the key factor and MVP in our victory over St. Edward’s, he is also a talented aspiring artist.
Athletically, Matt’s contribution to the Varsity Football team comes as the varsity kicker. At the St. Edward’s game he managed to make 3 field goals which helped push the team to a 23-17 win. He has provided for a strong position that has produced important wins for the football team.
“[Football] helps build character by distilling discipline in the kids and teaching them how rewards only come with hard work,” Matt says.
Artistically, Matt plays guitar, ukulele, piano, and chords and is an auxiliary guitar for Keyhole Gallery (a post-grunge punk band featuring seniors Jackson O’Brien ‘14 and Matthew Nicolay ‘14) and lead guitar and synthesizer in Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
Although he is an athlete, he thinks the school should put more emphasis on the arts curriculum.
“There should be an effort to incorporate artistic sensibilities into daily life at Ignatius,” Colella said.
He also thinks that students should try to build connections across the traditional divide between athletic and artistic communities at school.
“I feel people generally gravitate towards people with the same interests,” he said, “but there should be an effort to connect with other kids.”
In the future, Matt see’s himself possibly playing college football and “if I don’t I may try and take part in club football or soccer.” He also says he hopes to improve his art.
“[I will] keep practicing instruments and keep learning about music,” he said.
Miley Cyrus certainly has made quite a few change from average Disney star to twerking, attention-seeking pop star. I have never personally been a fan of Miley Cyrus, but I figured I would listen to her new album, “Bangerz”, which characterizes her new, “edgy” persona.
The first song, “Adore You,” immediately made me want to stop listening to the album altogether. It’s unoriginal in its tune and lyrics, using cliché love song lyrics and too many filler words like “hey” and “yeah.” “We Can’t Stop” follows that which, albeit a catchy beat, is really just uninteresting and gets annoying halfway through the first verse. “SMS(Bangerz)” is just atrocious, with annoying vocals and overused pop synth parts and beats blasting terrible noise in the background.
The middle section of the album manages to slightly redeem the album momentarily. “Wrecking Ball” is a bit over-dramatic but respectable, “#GETITRIGHT” actually has a kind of catchy tune, although the hashtag gives me a small headache, and “FU” has a good tune but bad lyrics, so just ignore Miley.
The rest of the album is pretty sub-par, ending with “Hands in the Air,” of which the best part is when Miley stops singing and Ludacris starts rapping. I suppose the album may be worth listening to, but I would not recommend buying the album, or adding any of its songs to your Spotify playlist.
Bitter Rivals by Sleigh Bells
The third studio album of Sleigh Bells continues their dubbed “noise” or “shred pop”. It’s essentially a combination of heavily distorted guitar, synth, and prominent beats which combine to create an intense sound , creating a pump-up sort of feeling.
Bitter Rivals is a great addition to the band’s small collection of albums and offers some great new tracks utilizing this unique sound. The album starts out strong with the intense “Bitter Rivals,” and this strength continues throughout the album. The second track, “Sugarcane,” sounds remarkably similar to “Born to Lose,” a song from the band’s previous album, Reign of Terror, so it sounds great albeit a bit uncreative.
The intensity gets dialed back a bit for “You Don’t Get Me Twice,” “To Hell With You,” and “24” before being raised for the strong ending song of “Love Sick.” This is an interesting change for the band, however their slight divergence from what gave them success could hinder their future popularity and endeavors. I’m willing to look past that as this album is a welcome addition to the band’s lineup of songs and offers some fun and interesting music that’s worth a listen.
2013 has been a phenomenal year for films both critically and culturally. From the revolutionary special effects of Gravity to the impactful and masterfully shot films such of The Place Beyond the Pines, Prisoners, Short Term 12, and Fruitvale Station, this year has already established itself as one of the best in movie history. That trend is showing no signs of stopping with the biggest films of 2013 preparing to become some of the prime contenders for both Oscar’s and Ignatian discussions for a while.
12 Years A Slave (November 1st, 2013)
The hype is strong – festival screenings are calling 12 Years A Slave “the Schindler’s list of slavery.” Based on a true story, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars as Solomon Northup, a free black man who was kidnapped into slavery in the backdrop of the growing Abolitionist movement of the 1840s. Gruesome but powerful, this film is an unfaltering depiction of a brutal and unjust time in American history. While not for the faint of heart, the directing, acting, and overall message create a compelling film that is essential viewing for the attentive cinemagoer, and one that is sure to be in the lead for Oscar contention.
The Wolf of Wall Street (December 25th, 2013)
Maybe The Wolf of Wall Street will do what The Great Gatsby was supposed to do but failed after getting too busy looking at the pretty lights: criticize excess and materialistic inversions of the American dream. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio and directed by the reliably good Martin Scorsese, The Wolf of Wall Street tells the true story of Jordan Belfort, a New York stockbroker who denied involvement in a large securities fraud case in the 1990s. The relevance to modern times in the aftermath of the financial collapse is clearly a motive behind the film’s production, but the look of the trailer shows what may be a new direction for Martin Scorsese towards a more streamlined, modern approach to filmmaking.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (November 22nd, 2013)
The second installment of the Hunger Games trilogy promises to be bigger and better in every way. With a more than doubled budget and new director helming the rings, Catching Fire aims to involve a more deeply emotional journey for Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and take a more sophisticated attitude towards the oppressive government of Panem.
Thirteen Saint Ignatius students have qualified for National Merit Semifinalist status this year, ranking Ignatius among the top two schools in the region.

[/pullquote]Despite the impressive ranking, the number of Saint Ignatius students who have qualified is down this year after the threshold score for the award was an unusually high 215, an increase Mr. Brian Martin, head of the counseling department, attributes to a comparatively easier PSAT.
He says that while he had hoped that more than the thirteen who qualified to be National Merit Semifinalists would have made the grade, he was nonetheless quite pleased with the results, which put our school at number two in Northeast Ohio.
Besides National Merit Semifinalists, the senior class includes thirty-three students recognized as National Merit Commended Students or minority achievement candidates.
While he says his sample size isn’t extensive by any means, Mr. Martin says that the consensus about this year’s PSAT, conducted on October 16th, is that the math sections were harder than expected and the reading and writing sections easier than most students had anticipated.
Results for this year’s PSAT will be available on the College Board website in December.
“You know what I really hate? Smartphones. Our lives would be so much better without them.” Said no one. Ever.
In the world we live in today, smartphones play a significant role in our lives and affect us all in one way or another. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take very long for our shiny new phones and smartphones to become outdated, experience glitches, or flat out stop working.
So if you’re looking for a new smartphone, I present to you three of the best Android phones on the market right now. And no, the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C are not on this list, because it’s time to give the other phones on the dance floor the spotlight for a change.
HTC One What better way to start off this list then to talk about a phone that is literally called “One?” This phone has received universal acclaim and recognition for its sleek design, sharp display, and great sounding speaker. If you’re in the market for a phone of the highest quality, the HTC One is definitely worth checking out. $149.99 with Verizon contract.
Samsung Galaxy S4 Powerful, innovative, and all around gorgeous. These are words people have used to describe the Samsung Galaxy S4. Samsung has always been known for making great smartphones, and the Galaxy S4 proves that. With its stunning display, innovative interface, and overall power, the Samsung Galaxy S4 is one smartphone to definitely consider buying. $199.99 with AT&T contract.
Nexus 4 If you’re looking for a high-end smartphone for half the price of its competitors, then the Google Nexus 4 is the phone for you! The Google Nexus 4 is equipped with a beautiful display and powerful hardware; all within a exquisite design. With the features mentioned and so much more, the Google Nexus 4 is the best “bang for your buck” smartphone out there. $19.99 with T-Mobile contract.
It’s that time of year again. Young children are encouraged to take candy from masked strangers, it becomes socially acceptable to hang fake dead people in front yards, and innocent orange fruit is hacked into, gutted, then set ablaze on the front porches of suburban homes across the country. Halloween is upon us, and the season of haunted houses is in full swing. A few weeks ago I managed to unglue my eyes from AMC’s Fear Fest, chock full of gem after gem of classic horror movies like Halloween 8: Resurrection and Pet Semetary 2, to go with some friends to check out The Fear Experience, produced by Ignatius alum Max Simon ‘13.
I was excited by the good press – “Northeast Ohio’s Premier Haunted Attraction,” Cleveland.com raved about The Fear Experience. After travelling deep into the bowels of Parma to get to the haunted house late at night, all the while hearing terrifying radio advertisements for the house, my nerves were already on edge. However, that did not take long to change. I joined the first line, which turned out to be a long line to buy tickets to enter an even longer line. For $22 a ticket (these were the cheapest ones too) I was expecting the scare of a lifetime; my wallet based on a meager summer lifeguarding salary ,can’t handle that heavy bombardment. But no mercy was forthcoming.
As I wasted away in a line moving at roughly the speed of the average Department of Motor Vehicles photobooth, a strange man with a cat toy meowed at us, presumably trying to scare us. My friends and I quickly reached the conclusion that a terrible mistake had been made in deciding to come. After waiting a life-draining three hours in line, morale was low and not everyone made it to the other side (at least one girl fainted). We pressed onward, making our way through four separate houses, jumping in surprise a grand total of one time. At the end of the mere twenty-five minute experience, I stood with my caravan, legs aching from standing in line and wallets crying out for retribution.
My crew teammate and friend, fellow senior Joe Kollin put it best.
“The only thing worse than the seemingly endless line and pathetic attempts to scare by wannabe ‘monsters’ was the inconvenient, excessive pricing,” he said, and then went on to list a few more grievances not to be repeated in polite company.
The Fear Experience will terrify nothing but your wallet and your patience.
Ask any alum for a list of their favorite teachers, and Jim Skerl is sure to be one of them.
Through his leadership in Labre, C.A.T., and the many other Christian service initiatives he has become involved in during his years at Ignatius, Mr. Skerl has touched the hearts of thousands of people. Whether it was through teaching his theology classes at school, the bonds he has created with those in need on Sunday nights at Labre, or his leadership at the weekly C.A.T. meetings, Mr. Skerl has for years embodied what it means to be a Man for Others.
This past February, Mr. Skerl was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The diagnosis came as a shock to Skerl, whose active and healthy lifestyle included riding his bicycle to school most days of the year. Adding to that shock was a grim reality: Pancreatic cancer is one of the most difficult cancers to cure.
[pullquote]
“I’ve been so deeply touched by the number of people who have been praying for me,” said Skerl. “The power of prayer shrunk my tumor.”
[/pullquote]
Skerl and his doctors at the Cleveland Clinic opted for aggressive rounds of chemotherapy combined with radiation, intended to shrink his tumor prior to surgery. This approach would give the surgeons the best chance to remove the cancer in its entirety.
Over the summer, Mr. Skerl underwent surgery, where his doctors successfully removed the tumor.
Following surgery, he spent the rest of the summer recovering from this operation. He will continue chemotherapy and radiation for another six months.
“The worry now is if there are any other renegade lymph nodes running around,” he said. After surgery, 33 of his lymph nodes were tested, and all were clear of cancer.
When he talked about his illness and recovery, he stressed his deep gratitude and humility for the unbelievable support given to him by the Saint Ignatius community.
“I’ve been so deeply touched by the number of people who have been praying for me,” said Skerl. “The power of prayer shrunk my tumor.”
And Skerl believes his fight with cancer has made him a better teacher of Theology.
“I see things from a whole new perspective,” he said, especially when the topic in his classroom turns to sickness and dying. “This experience has not challenged my faith, but strengthened it,” said Mr. Skerl.
He relates his experience to the Biblical story found in Luke 5:17-39, where a sick man is lowered down through the roof of a house due to the crowds, and then healed by Jesus. “I feel like I am the sick man,” he said. He feels the continual support of the community and of those around him, both of which have carried him through this journey and have kept him here to continue his generous life.
The college application process consists of colleges who need students and the students who want to attend them. These are their stories.
Adam Kallibjan
“Being in the symphonic band has helped me like performance-wise. I’ve done everything on my own to prepare myself.”
Saint Ignatius band librarian Adam Kallibjan hates rap, is just willing to tolerate dubstep, and adores classical music. He also wants a job in the modern music industry. His chosen profession: composer.
Kallibjan has essentially created a college application plan that rejects the most fundamental norms of the system. Music schools barely care about transcripts, and he says he sent Berklee his as a courtesy.
The linchpin of the music school application is the live audition, which must be done in person at the college campus. His first audition is coming up in November at Berklee, and he has already chosen and begun practicing a piece.
The rest of the schools Kallibjan is applying to aren’t as relaxed as Berklee, and he will have to memorize a number of specifically requested musical selections for auditions coming up around February.
Kallibjan says that his ambition to go to music school means he has had a significantly different application process from his peers in instrumental music at Ignatius.
“Even within the band, I think I’m the only one who’s doing this,” he said. “Being in the symphonic band has helped me like performance-wise. I’ve done everything on my own to prepare myself.”
Although Kallibjan has been playing the piano for 11 years and the saxophone for six, and currently works with the Cleveland Institute of Music, he says his parents had some doubts about his desired career path.
“At first they were just concerned,” he said. “Lately, they’ve been a little bit more supportive.
He wants to spend a career working with music, doing what he does in his spare time – composing.
“It’s like my ultimate dream right now,” he said.
Jack Coyne
“Academic strength, best chance for me to get into [the] best business school, most comfortable setting for me to spend four years in,” Coyne said, describing his criteria for college selection.Varsity golf captain Jack Coyne has taken an uncompromisingly high-stakes approach to the college admissions process. Unlike most students at Ignatius, where the average number of applications hovers around eight or nine, Coyne is currently banking on two applications, although he intends to apply to schools to be assigned if his gamble doesn’t pan out.
After being recruited by both Harvard and Miami University, nationally ranked golfer Coyne chose to apply early to just Harvard and Williams, two of the most selective undergraduate colleges in the country. One in 6 applicants were accepted to Williams in 2012, and barely one in 20 were admitted to Harvard.
Although Coyne has not chosen a major yet, he said that overall academic strength was among the most important of the numerous factors he was weighing during his college application process.
He is aiming to match his ambitious goals as a potential Division 1 athlete with an appropriately competitive academic environment.
“Academic strength, best chance for me to get into [the] best business school, most comfortable setting for me to spend four years in,” Coyne said, describing his criteria for college selection.
He said that in addition to the city setting, Harvard stood out for one reason in particular.
“Academic excellence.”
Michael Zupan
“I’m interested in nuclear engineering due to many factors, the largest being the apparent underuse of such a good technology.”
Michael Zupan, the student body president, has focused on an unusual combination of disciplines in narrowing down his list of colleges: nuclear engineering and political science.
Zupan said his options were relatively constrained given the scarcity of schools offering a nuclear engineering major. He intends to use the double major in political science to complement the technical skills he will learn as an engineer.
“I’m interested in nuclear engineering due to many factors, the largest being the apparent underuse of such a good technology,” Zupan said. “I want to get into political sciences at the same time so that I understand the technology and safety issues.”
He aims to continue as a student leader in some capacity at whatever school he ultimately attends, although he does not want to continue as a varsity athlete in college.
Zupan says he thinks he will be a competitive applicant to the colleges he is applying to, though he wishes his test scores were backed up by a higher GPA. If he is not accepted at one of his top choices, he believes he will be capable of handling the disappointment with the aid of student body vice president Owen Manning.
“I’ll probably cry a little bit, then go up to East Coast Custard while Owen’s working and drown my sorrows in a malt shake,” Zupan said.
Owen Manning
“One of the things that I write about in my college essays is my haiku talent.”
Owen Manning has renounced his past.
The former leading light in the Fr. Streicher Humanities Program and current student body vice-president has decided to become an engineer, joining fellow Streicher alumnus and student body president Michael Zupan in dropping the fine arts for cold, hard science.
“The thing is, I think I’m still a reading and English guy,” Manning said. “It’s important to be able to read and write well – just be able to relate to people.”
He hasn’t decided on a specific engineering discipline, although he is considering focusing on the environment. But Manning is committed to ensuring that he has a broad-based college experience that incorporates strong engineering and liberal arts programs, a meaningful service program, and a good “community feel.”
Manning has narrowed his list down to just six schools, the result of both his goal to keep the application workload down to a manageable level and his specific criteria.
“That was something that I really wanted to do – keep a narrower list,” he said. “I had sort of a specific search with engineering. Most of my schools are pretty local.”
His applications will be backed by a personal essay describing a passion, and experience, that few other applicants will be able to match. He is an avid writer of haikus, the three-line, seventeen-syllable Japanese poems.
“One of the things that I write about in my college essays is my haiku talent,” Manning said. “I did a talent show at St. Joe’s last year, and that was kind of my defining moment.”
Although no awards were given, Manning said he was the champion in his own mind.
“I am a person whose identity has been forged by the world of business. We cannot overlook the role of local subtleties and cultural nuances.”
Sami Petros is nothing if not international. The proficient Arabic speaker and first-generation American was raised in a Lebanese family that spans the entire globe, from Dubai to Paris, London to Australia to China, Japan, Oman, and Qatar.
And he wants to take his own goals as a businessman global as well. Petros is applying to schools where he can study business and economics, with a focus on international business. At New York University, he is applying specifically to programs housed in Abu Dhabi, Shanghai, and London.
“I’m pretty good at adapting. I like to pick up different cultures,” Petros said. “It is my firm belief that our generation must learn to conduct business in the global arena.”
He has been working feverishly on the Common App essay question and gone through endless drafts for school-specific essays. Petros said that he is adopting a wide-ranging application strategy.
“A lot of these are reach schools for me, a shotgun approach – a Hail Mary if you will,” he said. “”I loved a lot of the ones I visited, which is half the reason, and I’d be happy at any of them.”
He plans to study Arabic in addition to business, both to boost his business versatility and to help him around the house.
“I know swear words, and I understand it fairly well,” Petros said, but although he can successfully talk through dentist appointments in Arabic, he still struggles to understand his family at times and can’t read the language.
Even though he’s applying to select schools, he said that his parents have not been pressuring him through the process.
“My parents would support me whether I wanted to live in a van down by the river,” Petros said. “That being said, I wished they pressured me a little more.”
As Petros finishes the college application season, he is focused on the future and developing his multicultural approach to business.
“I am a person whose identity has been forged by the world of business,” he said. “We cannot overlook the role of local subtleties and cultural nuances.”
Vincent Hwang
“I have some leadership skills that not all engineers have.”
Thirteen schools drawn from the creme de la creme of selective American universities. An applications plan targeted at 13 colleges with the aim of scheduling five to six courses – per semester. Double majoring in rigorous disciplines at the world’s most demanding academic institutions.
Vincent Hwang does not let opportunities pass by.
The omni-involved Ignatius senior is planning to major in both business and engineering in college, which will sum to a total time in class he estimates at around 20 hours per week.
“I’ve been thinking about what to do with my life for a long time,” Hwang said. “I have some leadership skills that not all engineers have.”
He is applying to the selective Jerome Fisher program at the University of Pennsylvania, which allows students to major in business at the top-ranked Wharton School of Business and in engineering at the nationally ranked School of Engineering and Applied Science.
Hwang was introduced to the program during his freshman year rides to school with Matthew Petrella, Class of ‘11, a current Fisher Program participant. He said his personal research had only increased his desire to apply.
“I visited UPenn last summer, and not only did I fall in love with the campus, I fell in love with the program,” Hwang said. “This program is not only for the bookish type. They want someone who is well-rounded.”
He says that if he gets denied from UPenn or any of his other top choices, he will be able to handle the disappointment given his experience last year being denied to all four of the summer programs he applied to.
“I can double major anywhere. I think I’d be okay anywhere,” Hwang said. “I also think that I’ve chosen some really good schools. I’d be happy at any of them.”
But, like many Ignatius seniors, Hwang said he has been challenged trying to keep to his personal timetable for completing the huge volume of application materials.
“I think I’ve been very good at procrastinating,” he said.
Vocalist Anthony Monaco, a sophomore at Buckeye Schools, soon joined and since then, the band has gigged at local clubs Peabody’s and The Foundry, as well as Crocker Park and the Sullivan Gymnasium at St. Ignatius.
Aside from playing gigs, Keyhole Gallery also writes original songs.
