the Claremont Review
Suite 101-1581-H Hillside Avenue
Victoria, BC V8T 2C1
the Claremont Review is a magazine that showcases inspiring young adult writers, aged 13-19. We publish poetry, fiction, drama and art, twice a year, spring and fall. If you are interested in submitting your work check out our submission guidelines.
We strongly encourage students, teachers and libraries to subscribe to this tremendous resource and critical venue for young writers to voice their talent.
Know the rules before you break them. This is one of the most taught principles of all art forms. The idea is to stand on the shoulders of the giants who have come before you and learn their craft before you go all rogue and decide an Elizabethan sonnet could be thirteen lines and why not make the metric foot trochaic as opposed to iambic. Indeed, why not? Well, until you have written at least 14 Elizabethan sonnets, then you have no business messing with the form. Some writers take years to bend their will and their egos to the legacy of the masters. Some never do and spend eternity claiming, "People don't 'get' me or my work," which makes for a long and lonely creative life. Ask Joaquin Phoenix how well his hip-hop career is going…
All the contributors in this issue are obviously well informed of the rules of their genre. It was a pleasure selecting the pieces and working with its author/creator during the editorial process. Responses were professional and our suggestions for improvement welcomed. We thank each of you for this; it sure made putting together our first issue much easier.
That's the other thing: our first issue. In the fall of 2012, the founding editors of the Claremont Review retired after over twenty successful years of publishing. To Terence Young, Bill Stenson and Susan Stenson, we say a huge thank you for providing a credible magazine to showcase young talent. The new team has giant shoulders to stand upon and we promise to maintain the literary standards which define the Claremont Review. We also would like to thank our Managing Editor, Linda Moran, for agreeing to stay with us a little longer. We couldn't do it without her! Thanks to SIDES for continuing to sponsor our annual contest.
We did break a couple of the rules, however, and I will own those decisions; we agreed to publish one script and we accepted work from an author who falls a little short of the age requirements. Just this one time! Oksana Hovdebo writes with a talent and perspective rarely seen at her age and it was felt she deserved to be included in our magazine. She has also promised NOT to send us anymore work for a couple more years.
So, here is to a powerhouse of an issue, an all-new team of Editors, and at least twenty more years of the Claremont Review. Please follow us on Facebook, Twitter and visit our website anytime. Spread our words! Keep writing! More art!

It is that time again… time to bring another sensational snoozer into the fantasy spotlight. We now take a trip to the Dub, aka the Western Hockey League. The former home of instant-impact NHLer Martin Hanzel has brought us another gem. This is different however. Colin Long is an absolute snorer that no one is talking about.
If you look, many of your favorite hockey sites barely say a peep about this guy. I'd suspect I could count on one hand all the fantasy players who know about him in my country (an exaggeration, but I do live in the US after all).
Colin Long possesses a unique combinations of traits not often found at the top of major junior leaderboards. He is a player who went undrafted despite being draft eligible. He isn't too old for his league, and he isn't extremely small like the 5-foot-7 Colton Yellow Horns of the world. Colin is listed at 5-foot-11 and 174 pounds… a completely acceptable size for a hockey prospect at the age of 18. He is the top scorer in the WHL this season, and no one gave him a chance in the draft. Why? Is it because of some strange bias against the Kelowna Rockets? No, many Kelowna alums such as Sheldon Souray, Shea Weber and Chuck Kobasew now skate the NHL ice. Is it because he is from the hockey hotbed known as Santa Ana, California? No. Although that really isn't going to help him get noticed, his previous production is the actual reason for the snub.
Colin Long, C, Kelowna Rockets
Whatever the reason, Colin Long was a late bloomer and has become an instant star this season. With 23 fewer games played thus far, Long has already exceeded (more than doubled!) his WHL career high by an astounding 39 points. He was the Player of the Month in December with 23 points during that time and is now ahead of fantasy prospect heartthrobs like Mark Santorelli, Kyle Beach and Oscar Moller…. all players spoken of and found on farms around the fantasy world. Meanwhile, Colin Long lurks unnoticed by most. He is younger than Santorelli or Moller and was already draft eligible, unlike Mr. Beach.
What does this mean? It means in many fantasy leagues, this is a guy who may be eligible for your farm that no one has snagged. Just like David Perron who was a year older when drafted, Colin Long looks primed to jump on the NHL fast track. Just think… Martin Hanzal had 85 points in 60 games in the WHL last year and now look at him. Colin Long is on that same pace. Heck, with a healthy season, he is on pace to easily pass the 93 points put up by 2006-07 scoring champ Zach Hamill. Colin Long is having one of the best WHL seasons in recent memory, and a 100-point season isn't out of the question. Neither is an NHL career. Get this guy.
The Status Report: A very dusty version this week.
Sergei Zubov, D, DAL
Don't let the current injuries disturb you. If you look at his history, Zubov always misses five to ten games each season but manages to still be one of the best fantasy defensemen around. With 35 points in 44 games, he is well ahead of last season's production, even with the injuries. Zubov is showing no signs of slowing down, and Mr. Ribeiro and company are only helping the cause.
From the Dust: The player who may have some value after all.
Joakim Lindstrom, C/W, CLS
The diaper dandy is finally sticking at the NHL level. Still only 24 years old, Lindstrom is coming off of a fantastic AHL stint and now has six points in his first eleven games. With this being his third tryout with the big boys, it looks like the third time's a charm. A natural winger (despite what yahoo thinks), Lindstrom has been playing center from time to time unfortunately. This does limit his value in the short term, but that's where Columbus needs the most help. If that is what keeps him in the pros, so be it. With 70-point ability and winger eligibility eventually, Lindstrom has a lot of upside for the future.
Ben Eager, LW, CHI
Stealing from one of my own decisions in a deeper league, I suggest you use Mr. Eager to fill out you extra injured reserve position. It is always smart to maximize the talent within your possession, and filling your IR with guys off the free agent list is a great way to do that. You never know whose value will shoot up. So unless you have a low max moves limit, get as many players under your control as you can. Eager is not a guy who will put up points, but I think we can make an exception for him. After all, he did lead the league last year with 233 penalty minutes. In my leagues, that put him in the top 200 players in value. He is a valuable asset in deeper PIM leagues and is someone you should really consider stashing for a rainy day.
Johan Franzen, C/W, DET
Alright, maybe this is a bit of a stretch. Still, after starting the year with zero points in his first eleven games, Johan deserves a shout out. He now has eight goals and eleven points in his last 25 games and may be useful in deeper leagues. His peripheral numbers are also very solid with a plus-8 and 91 shots on goal. Finally, one of my best friends, Goran, whose family tree includes Franzens and is also from the same village in Sweden, suspects he may be a long lost cousin of his. So obviously, I have to be biased and give him some pub.
Cactus of the Week: The player you shouldn't touch right now.
Kristian Huselius, LW, CGY
Surprisingly, newly arrived superstar Kristian Huselius has hit a wall this past week. He has zeros across the board in most everything…
Last week: 3GP, 0G, 0A, 0P, 0, 0PIM, 11SOG
Well, at least he is still shooting. After two five-point games in December and a recent twelve points in five games, Huselius owners were getting spoiled anyway. If you own him, don't worry. If you don't, I wouldn't bother trying to buy low any time soon. I'd stay away at least another week. It will take a longer slump than this to get his value where it needs to be for a fair buy.
Fantasy Flashback: Your weekly reminder that fantasy hockey is a rollercoaster.
Pascal Leclaire, G, CLS
As a favorite for this year's Fantasy Comeback Player of the Year (or even Fantasy MVP depending on how you look at it), Pascal Leclaire has rounded into the star tender we anticipated years ago. Though still a little nerve racking to own with his injury history, his huge shutout totals have more than made up for it. Just look at this amazing comparison.
When you look at his history, you see a general improvement in his GAA since his rookie season. Considering his pedigree, this is looking more like the rule than the exception. Amazing to think that Pascal Leclaire now stands well ahead of his fellow contemporaries like Marc-Andre Fleury and Kari Lehtonen in value. He is a little older than them however, so perhaps they will catch up. Regardless, the combination of his talent, health and the Hitchcock system has done wonders.

Report: UCLA's Alberto Cid leaving football amid concussion struggles
By Zac Ellis
UCLA offensive guard Alberto Cid will end his career by taking a "medical retirement" due to concussions, Chris Foster of the Los Angeles Times reported Thursday.
#UCLA OL Alberto Cid (concussion) annoucned he will take a medical retirement.—
chris foster (@cfosterlatimes) April 25, 2013
Cid missed all of spring camp after starting seven games over the past two seasons for the Bruins. The 6-foot-2, 325-pound lineman transferred to UCLA from Citrus Junior College in 2011.
In the wake of Cid's departure, UCLA will likely look to incoming freshmen Caleb Benenoch, Kenny Lacy and Christian Morris to build depth on the offensive line.

Someone (sorry, I forget who) posted a link to this very nice compilation of fittings and basic code requirements on a thread. The majority of it I was familiar with, but there were a couple questions that came up as I read through it. Any edumacation you can give would be much appreciated :)
Here's the link
So a SanTee is used for a trap arm. I would assume from this that a double SanTee would be for side by side lavs with the drain/vent in the middle, or do you have to use the double fixture fitting for this application? Is the double SanTee only for joining vents? The double fixture is for back to backs and side by sides... Is this the required fitting, or are they both options? What is the difference in use between these two fittings, and why? Is the sweep/flow just better on the fixture fitting, and the double santee is just an option for venting b/c its shorter?
You see both combination wye fittings and SanTees being used to connect a horizontal drain into a vertical one. Are both permissible in general, or are there different requirements for each's use? I know you need the SanTee for a trap arm, and the combination wye for horizontal to horizontal drains, but are there other specific differences in a horizontal to vertical drain application, or can either be used?
On the 2nd Drains and Vents page, it shows a vent under a window and says to use drainage fittings. What is this about?
In the Sinks section, bottom left pic is a lav draining into a toilet vent, and being vented by it. So you can do this, as long as the trap arm is under 3'6" and you only do it on the same floor? Is that correct?
Is the distance between trap and vent on 2" line greater than 3'6"? Related to that, what are the specific requirements of flat venting?
It says that no drains from other fixtures may enter the closet bend, only downstream of the vent. Is this correct? Unless I'm misreading this, I know that my house has inlets on the closet elbow, and wyes coming off the 3" horizontal before the vent in almost every location, and it passed inspection a few years ago. My county adds a lot of extra code requirements in general, so I'd be surprised if they let this fly if its not generally acceptable...
Ok, that ended up being more questions than I thought. Thanks to anyone who is willing to help me get a more complete understanding of these codes.

My wife and I just replaced one of our (30 year old) American Standard toilets with a new American Standard Cadet 3 a few months ago, and it works perfectly. Being a new model, it is one of the 1.6 gallon units, and it flushes extremely fast and efficiently. We looked at the American Standard Champion before purchasing the Cadet, and at the time we didn't know of the complaints about the Champion model. We just went with the Cadet 3 because it was less expensive and looked fine. Now that we've read about the Champion problems, we're glad that we went with the Cadet 3. I can only assume that American Standard didn't do enough design work when they came out with the new Champion model, but the Cadet 3 is an excellent unit. Unlike the Champion model, which uses a new flush system, the Cadet 3 uses the same tried and true system that our old and very reliable American Standard toilet used. Of course, it's even better than our old unit, since it's the 1.6 gallon type. The Cadet 3 flushes so fast and quietly that we were amazed at its efficiency.
Incidentally, we bought the standard height model (not the "right height" model), but I don't believe that there would be any difference in performance between the two.

Impeccable service, High-quality food – To whom it may concern,
My wife and I have recently had the delightful experience of dining at your restaurant in The Woodlands, Texas. We had reservations for the dining room this past Valentine's Day. From the moment we walked into the door we were treated to the best dining experience we have ever had together! I have traveled to many countries and have rarely received this high level of service, to memory. The door greeter was genuinely courteous. The hostess "Cori" was kind, professional, and demonstrated manners uncommon of her generation. Our high-caliber waiter for the evening was "Bryan", whom demonstrated patience and impeccable attention to detail without nagging or hovering. This top-notch service highlighted the dining room's ambiance and our tasty meals. You can go just about anywhere for a fancy dinner but very few places for a good memory. Too often are the staff not recognized for a "job well-done". Fleming's in the Woodlands, especially Cori and Bryan , deserve it!
mediocre, overpriced food, good service – When a restaurant has 4 pages of wine selections and 2 pages of food, you know what the emphasis will be. The wine selection may appeal to some, but we wanted a superior meal. No such luck. Salads first. There are four, none of them unusual. The Flemings salad we got to share had stale croutons, a giant glazed nut, two spinach leaves and a bunch of iceberg lettuce -- with craisins. House dressing: lemon vinagerette? A double sour dressing on a sweet salad? We declined and got another on the side. Onward. There were only two steaks on the menu. My small fillet mignon was nicely cooked but not exceptionally tender. Worse, it was over-salted. My husband ordered the "oscar" topping.-- a $15 addition of crabmeat with cheese and two exceedingly skinny asparagus spears. It barely covered his steak. He liked it but agreed that it was not worth the excessive price. For that he should have had an extra entree! We tried a valentines velvet cake for dessert. Cold, gummy cake with cream cheese frosting and two second class white-topped strawberries dipped in a bit of chocolate. Again, very underwhelming. We will not go back.
Great place! – I recently stopped by for the happy hour I'd heard so much about. It was awesome. The food is great, the drinks are great, and contrary to the previous review, the service was awesome. Even though they were pretty busy, I never had an empty glass and it was always served with a smile. This is a place that I am going to frequent for sure.
Serious Issues with this place – I have gone to happy hour and had dinner at this location at least a dozen times since they opened and last night will be the last time I go there.
While we were greated by friendly hosts, the bar staff were rushed and we waited a while to get drinks and to have our order for food taken. Then we order dessert and it is served with no eating utensils. When we grabbed silverware off another table the bartender copped an attitude and said that he was going to bring us spoons - I am like - When? After our desert melted before our eyes????
Then to top our our miserable experience we witness a MOUSE, yes a mouse, run from the kitchen right through the bar area (to the horror of the patrons I might add) with the wait staff trying to chase it out the FRONT DOOR of the restaurant with a small broom. It was quite a sight and certainly not where I would go for a nice dinner.
Save your money and go to Pappa's, Sullivans or somewhere else. Last night was my last visit to Flemings. That is for sure.
What a nice experience it was ! – My wife and I wanted a nice dinner out, it was suggested that we try Fleming's. We are very happy we did, the steak was prepared perfect, just like ordered it, the side dishes were also very good.. bluecheese mash potatoes.. oh yeah. we shall be back !
Does the Schwan Man Stop here? – The service was lovely. I just it hate it when the nice guy has to bring out something so disappointing.. but this steak was grizzled and tough ..I apologise to the bus boy who had to pick up my napkin with the gross bits in it. Mommy's fillet looked like shriveled up truffle bulbs I guess when you order "the special" you don't get prime.My sister who will now agrees to eat non mammal flesh..picked at her tuna and declared it gooshy. It was not sushi it was just not cooked through. Dad's steak was ok it was cooked right...but just OK is not what I was looking for. BUT the service was fabulous.
Amazing Filet – This is one of my favorites for celebrations and romantic dinners. I love a nice Filet with a glass of Moet. The cost is somewhat pricey but you get what you pay for.
Great High-End Steak House – Came here for a family dinner 5-6 years back as a "supposed to be as good as Ruth's Chris" type deal. To start, the decor is nice, but it's a little OVER-CROWDED... they are really pushing the fire code with regards to how many tables they fit in an area... we got stuck in a private room with the doors open... not good seating. The food was average at best.. 3 stars based on that. Went again a year later b/c we couldn't get into the aforementioned Ruth's Chris (yes, I do like that place)... this time, I couldn't have had a different experience... probably the best steak / meal I've had in my meager existence. I had the Filet Mignon. Why get anything else? That one meal actually got me off the RC kick, and on a pretty consistent Flemings run. Of course the place never delivered at the same level... but still very good, and MUCH better than Morton's. Big fan of the Flemings potato... and the mac & Cheese.
Best Steak i've had in years! – if u want a great steak, this is the place. went there for my birthday last week.
had trouble find it, but it was worth the effort.

Jeezus Mike! And I thought I was rough on my knives...
Today is as good a day to die as any. Except for tomorrow. I have plans tomorrow.
Here too, even though very faint.
That is what I meant that thinning of this thing might get problematic.
[if this is katos grind]
Bacause to thin it effectively you have to go over the most thick part which is in the middle of height.
Mainaman it was well altogether too much bashing I suppose.
The heelest chip was my friend who just took the knife to cut one sausage and when putting it down, bashed the heel off.
The rest is on me. When chopping maybe?
Josh, I am not rough on my knivez at all.
But they are tools.

Kevin Burke and Foley and Jones to Perform at the Clark February 5
For Immediate Release
January 21, 2000
Kevin Burke, hailed as "probably the greatest Irish fiddler living" by the Village Voice, will perform at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute on Saturday, February 5, at 8:00 p.m. The concert, a double bill with the duo Foley and Jones, is the second in the Music at the Clark series "Celtic Music for the Millennium." Only a limited number of "standing room only" tickets remain, but seats are still available for the remaining two concerts in the popular series: Anam on Saturday, March 11, and Kila on Saturday, March 25. Tickets to each concert are $15 ($10 for members, $8 for students) and are available at the Clark Museum Shop, Cold Spring Coffee Roasters in Williamstown, Wood Brothers Music in Pittsfield, and Papyri Books in North Adams. To order tickets by phone, call the events office at 413-458-2303, extension 324.
Born and raised in London, Burke now lives in Portland, Oregon. His remarkable fiddle style, developed in the vibrant Irish music scene of 1960s London, soon earned him work with such musicians as Arlo Guthrie, Irish singer/songwriter Christy Moore, and the Bothy Band. In 1986, Burke joined the all-star cast of Irish musicians who eventually became the legendary quartet, Patrick Street.
Foley and Jones teamed up in 1999 and perform a variety of music drawn from the north east of England, Ireland, Scotland, and beyond. Foley is known for his guitar playing and has also been praised as a "strong unaffected singer" (The Washington Post). He co-founded The House Band and has been a member of the Irish "supergroup" Patrick Street since 1994.
Jones, a native of South Carolina, toured with The House Band in 1994 and became a full-fledged member of the group in 1998. Fellow fiddler Kevin Burke has said of Jones, "it's a pleasure to hear such a thoughtful approach to music." The Burke/Foley and Jones concert is the second in the Celtic Music series which began in January with critically acclaimed, standing-room-only performance by Lunasa. The remaining concerts will be Anam, "one of the world's most accomplished and fastest-rising acts in the Celtic genre," on March 11, and Kila, called "the future of Irish music" by Hot Press, on March 25.
The Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Admission is free through May. For more information call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.

"The average American has come of age with remarkable medical advances - from the polio vaccine, to multi-organ transplants, to the real prospect of nerve regeneration. Regenerative medicine, with its promise of repairing damaged tissues and growing replacement tissues and whole organs, is the new frontier." -2020: A New Vision. A Future for Regenerative Medicine, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
About Methuselah
Methuselah Foundation was started by Dave Gobel in 2003 to shed light on the processes of aging and finds ways to extend healthy life. Since then, we've given over $4 million in funding for regenerative medicine R&D. From tissue engineering to stem cell science, we've seen explosive progress in the industry, and we're more convinced than ever that regenerative medicine will transform health care in the 21st century.
For us, tackling aging is really about changing assumptions regarding what is and isn't possible for human life, health, and happiness. We believe that aging as we currently know it is not inevitable. We think everyone should enjoy a vibrant and productive life, not just in their early years, but into their 70s, 80s, and 90s. Through regenerative medicine, we can envision cures for many of today's most debilitating conditions, from heart disease and diabetes to renal failure and neurodegenerative disorders. By 2030, 90 year olds can be as healthy as 50 year olds are today.
We see opportunities to build towards that future all around us, but regenerative medicine needs help. The field of tissue engineering, for example, currently receives less than $500 million in federal funding annually, compared to $5 billion for cancer and almost $3 billion for HIV/AIDS. That's not only shortsighted, but irresponsible. We have to bridge this funding gap, increase awareness, and ignite public demand for progress.
Every day, we think about how to make the seemingly impossible become the inevitable. Unlike many nonprofits, we're responsive, not prescriptive, in our approach. We're project - rather than program - based, and we're always on the lookout for high-leverage interventions that spur concrete progress in the short term - and generate ripple effects over time.
Like us, many of our donors and partners are not just doers but dreamers, disruptors, iconoclasts. Over the last decade, we've helped put regenerative medicine on the map as a source of comprehensive solutions for age-related disease, disability, and suffering. Now, it's time to do more. When we scan the landscape of contemporary medicine, we see dramatic advances on the horizon, and we feel compelled to plant seeds in both expected and unexpected places. We'd love for you to join us.

Crane & Canopy: Original Design Bedding
Store Profile
Store History
- Founded by: Karin & Christopher
When Crane & Canopy co-founder Karin purchased her first house, she wanted to create a contemporary and elegant home filled with high-quality designer décor and furniture. When she couldn't find exactly what she was looking for without breaking the bank, she decided to get to work. The result: high quality designer home goods at an innovative price point.
The other unique aspect of Crane & Canopy's bedding is the way the duvet covers work. Usual duvet covers button at the bottom and can be a pain the neck to change out. Crane & Canopy's duvet covers feature a zippered opening about a 1/3 of the way from the top. This makes it easier to change the cover and, with hidden ties in the corners, helps keep the duvet cover in place. Check out the video below for a demonstration.

• The Fillmore Blue
• The Sutter Lilac

• The Valencia White Pintuck
