Change the definition of "$/" about what a new line is, in this case, the records are separated on each empty line and no chomping's done hence the records structure is preserved for each line, however, you might wanna chop if you wanted to get rid of the trailing new line characters for each independent record.. 
use strict;
use warnings;

local $/='';      #Empty lines are the record terminators
while(<DATA>){
       # print if !/^r145/;
        print unless /^r145/;
        }
__DATA__
