Place the vine leaves in a bowl and pour over boiling water.
Soak for 2-3 minutes, drain in a sieve and rinse under cold water to cool. Pat dry with kitchen paper.
Peel and finely chop the onion.
Mix in a bowl with the herbs, minced meat and rice. Season with salt and pepper.
Separate the eggs. Beat the egg whites until stiff.
Fold the egg whites into the mince mixture.
Remove the stalks from half of the vine leaves.
Place the prepared vine leaves, shiny side down, on the work surface. Place 1-2 teaspoons of the mince filling on each vine leaf just above the stem. Wrap the sides over the filling then roll up from the bottom.
Line a small pot with the remaining vine leaves. Place the filled vine leaves on top. Drizzle with 3 tbsp olive oil and pour in 375ml water. Place a flat dessert dish upside down on the vine leaves and press down firmly. Cook over a low heat for 60 minutes.
In a bowl, beat the egg yolk with the lemon juice, salt and pepper.
Heat the butter and 1 tbsp flour in a pan until foamy. Pour in the stock and simmer, stirring, until creamy. Drain the cooking liquid from the vine leaves into a bowl and add to the sauce. Stir 2-3 tbsp of the hot sauce into the egg and lemon mixture, then mix it back into the sauce. Season with a pinch of sugar and salt.
Pour the sauce over the vine leaves and keep warm.
Cut the feta cheese into 8 slices and season with pepper. Turn in the remaining flour to coat. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan, fry the feta until lightly browned on both sides. Serve with the vine leaves and sauce, garnished with dill.

Dispatches from the Capitol via our reporters and others’ indicate a steady stream of Republican Members of Congress — who are already announced “No” votes on the Boehner plan — being summoned to the Speaker’s office.
On his way in to the Speaker’s office, Rep. Louis Gohmert (R-TX) — a strong “No” vote — said he had been called to the principal’s office. On the way out, Gohmert said he was still a “bloody, beaten down no.”And so it goes as the House leadership tries to wrangle enough votes.
It’s reminiscent of the Part D Medicare prescription drug vote back during the Bush days, when the House vote was kept open for hours while leadership cajoled, threatened and bartered to get it passed. But this time they’ve held off on starting the vote until they know they have enough Members on board to pass it.
The way this is playing out, it’s not an overstatement to say Boehner’s speakership is on the line here.

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF ILLINOIS EASTERN DIVISION
July 13, 2010
RAYMOND STINDE, (R-34993 ), PLAINTIFF,
CHERI TARR, ET AL., DEFENDANTS.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: George W. Lindberg United States District Court Judge
Judge George W. Lindberg
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Plaintiff, Raymond Stinde, an inmate at the Stateville Correctional Center, filed this 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action against Stateville Correctional Center Internal Affairs and Grievance Officers Cheri Tarr, Joanne Franklin, Cynthia Harris, Anthony Ramos, and Shaun Bass. Plaintiff alleges that prison administrative procedures were not followed with his disciplinary proceedings; that the conditions in segregation, to which he was sentenced, were deplorable; and that officers acted with deliberate indifference to his medical and mental health needs while he was in segregation. The Defendants have filed a motion to dismiss. Plaintiff has responded. For the reasons stated below, the court grants the motion to dismiss, dismisses with prejudice Plaintiff's constitutional challenges to his disciplinary proceedings, and dismisses the claims pertaining to the segregation conditions and the lack of medical and mental health attention without prejudice to Plaintiff submitting an amended complaint.
The court draws the facts of this case from Plaintiff's complaint and the exhibits attached to the complaint, which include the prison's disciplinary decision, Plaintiff's grievances and responses, and copies of sections of the Illinois Administrative Code. The court may consider these exhibits along with the allegations in the complaint when addressing the motion to dismiss. See Reger Development, LLC v. National City Bank, 592 F.3d 759, 764 (7th Cir. 2010); Massey v. Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., 464 F.3d 642, 645 (7th Cir. 2006).
Plaintiff alleges that he was accused of fighting on May 29, 2009.*fn1 Cheri Tarr issued a disciplinary ticket against Plaintiff on June 14, 2009, and he was found guilty on June 24, 2009, following an Adjustment Committee Hearing. (R. 1, Complaint, 5-6; R. 1, Exh. B.) Plaintiff contends that the delay of more than eight days for the issuance of a disciplinary ticket and the delay of more than fourteen days for Plaintiff to testify at the disciplinary hearing violated prison procedural rules. (R. 1, Complaint, 6-7; see also Exh. C, 20-21.) At the disciplinary hearing, Plaintiff's objected to his counselor, Officer Harris, serving on the disciplinary hearing committee. The objection was overruled. (Id. at 7.) Plaintiff was found guilty and was sentenced to six months of no commissary or phone privileges, a six-month reduction of his class to C grade, and six months of segregation. (R. 1, Complaint, Exh. H, 33.)
According to Plaintiff, in segregation, he was confined to a small cell measuring four by nine feet; he was allowed out of his cell only one day a week; the cell was filthy and he was not given cleaning materials; he was provided a urine-stained mattress, no pillow, and torn sheets; he was fed less than usual, causing him to lose weight and feel weak; the cell was infested with roaches and Plaintiff had to keep the light on at night to prevent roaches from crawling on him; there were no hooks to hang clothes to dry and washed clothes would mildew; and electrical outlets were located too close to the sink, posing a safety hazard. (Id. at 9-11.) Plaintiff states that he developed a rash from the conditions in segregation, as well as neck pains from no pillow. He requested medical attention but never received any. He also requested to see a psychiatrist for depression. It is unclear from the complaint whether Plaintiff alleges that he received no mental health assistance. (Id. at 10-11; see also Exh. G.)
Plaintiff was released from segregation after 94 days. The release was ordered in response to Plaintiff's grievance. Plaintiff's grievance asserted that disciplinary procedures were not followed, i.e., that the disciplinary ticket was issued more than eight days after the incident and that more than fourteen days passed before he was brought before a disciplinary hearing committee and allowed to present his case. (R. 1, Complaint, Exh. E, 26-27.); see also 20 IL ADC § 504.30(f) and § 504.80(a). The Grievance Officer (Shaun Bass) recommended that "disciplinary sanctions be revoked due to the mental state of grievant at the time of the offense." (R. 1, Complaint, Exh. I, 35.)
Plaintiff seeks to be credited with the amount of good-conduct time lost by his reduction in class, compensatory and punitive damages, and to have Officers Harris, Franklin, and Bass removed from their positions. (Id. at 15-16.)
A. Motion to Dismiss
When considering a motion to dismiss, this court assumes to be true all well-pleaded allegations and views the alleged facts, as well as any inferences reasonably drawn therefrom, in a light most favorable to the plaintiff. Marshall-Mosby v. Corporate Receivables, Inc., 205 F.3d 323, 326 (7th Cir. 2000). Under the notice pleading requirement, a complaint need only state a federal claim and provide the defendants with sufficient notice of the claim and the grounds upon which it rests. Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 555 (2007). The allegations of a complaint, however, must at least "plausibly suggest that the plaintiff has a right to relief, raising that possibility above a 'speculative level.'" E.E.O.C. v. Concentra Health Services, Inc., 496 F.3d 773, 776 -77 (7th Cir. 2007). A complaint must do more than recite the elements of a cause of action, and a court need not accept mere labels and legal conclusions as factual allegations. Bell Atlantic, 550 U.S. at 555. Nor must a court presume facts not alleged. Id. Additionally, if a plaintiff pleads facts demonstrating that he has no claim, a court may dismiss the complaint. McCready v. eBay, Inc., 453 F.3d 882, 888 (7th Cir. 2006).
B. Procedural Due Process
To obtain § 1983 relief, a plaintiff must establish that the defendants deprived him of a constitutional or federal right. Lekas v. Briley, 405 F.3d 602, 606 (7th Cir. 2005). A prisoner is entitled to due process protections before being deprived of a liberty interest. Such protections include: advance written notice of the charges, the chance to present testimony and documentary evidence to an impartial decisionmaker, and a written explanation supported by at least "some evidence" in the record. Lagerstrom v. Kingston, 463 F.3d 621, 624 (7th Cir. 2006), citing Wolff v. McDonnell, 418 U.S. 539, 564-66 (1974).
There is no independent constitutional right, however, to a disciplinary proceeding that complies with prison administrative procedures. The violation of a prison rule, by itself, does not give rise to a constitutional claim. See Whitman v. Nesic, 368 F.3d 931, 935 n.1 (7th Cir. 2004); Scott v. Edinburg, 346 F.3d 752, 760 (7th Cir. 2003) (§ 1983 provides a remedy for constitutional violations, not violations of state statutes and regulations). Even allegations that a party violated a state mandatory rule do not necessarily state a constitutional claim. Massey v. Helman, 259 F.3d 641, 647 (7th Cir. 2001) ("[a] state-created prison grievance procedure is simply a procedural right and does not confer any substantive right upon an inmate"); White v. Henman, 977 F.2d 292, 295 (7th Cir. 1992) (the violation of an administrative rule is not the same as a violation of the Constitution).
Plaintiff's allegations -- that a disciplinary ticket was not issued within eight days of the incident and that he did not appear before a disciplinary hearing within fourteen days -- involve violations of prison administrative rules, but not a constitutional violation. Constitutionally, Plaintiff was entitled to prior notice of the charge, the ability to present his case before an impartial decision-maker, and a written decision supported by some evidence. Lagerstrom, 463 F.3d at 624. The complaint and its exhibits demonstrate that Plaintiff received such process. Plaintiff was notified by at least June 14, 2009, of the disciplinary charge against him; he had a disciplinary hearing on June 24, 2009; and he was able to testify and present evidence at the hearing as to charge of fighting. (R. 1, Complaint, 6-7; see also Exhs. A, B, H.) Although Plaintiff states in his complaint that he objected to Cynthia Harris serving as a disciplinary hearing officer because she was Plaintiff's counselor, there is no indication that his objection was based upon Harris being impartial. Plaintiff does not mention Harris being a member of the disciplinary hearing committee in his response to the motion to dismiss; nor did he raise this issue in his grievances challenging the procedures not followed with his disciplinary proceeding. (R. 1, Exh. E; R. 21.)
The court further notes that the reversal of the disciplinary decision does not indicate that due process procedures were not followed. "The fact that the [disciplinary] outcome was eventually overturned does not mean that the hearing failed to satisfy minimal procedural requirements." Lagerstrom, 463 F.3d at 624.
Accordingly, because it is clear from the complaint and the attached exhibits that the procedures associated with the disciplinary proceedings were constitutionally sufficient, It is unclear whether Plaintiff's assertions that officers failed to follow prison rules states a claim under state law. The dismissal of Plaintiff's § 1983 claim is thus without prejudice to Plaintiff raising a state-law claim.
C. Segregation Conditions and Denial of Medical and Psychological Needs
Plaintiff's complaint indicates that, in addition to his procedural due process challenges, he may be challenging the conditions of his confinement in segregation and deliberate indifference to his medical and psychological needs that arose while he was in segregation. Plaintiff states that his cell in segregation was four by nine feet; he was allowed out of his cell only one day each week; the rooms were filthy; no cleaning supplies were given; Plaintiff was given a urine stained mattress, torn sheets, and no pillow; he received inadequate food; and his cell was roach infested. (R. 1, Complaint, 9-10.) Plaintiff states he developed a rash, that he had neck pains from sleeping with no pillow, and that he sought psychiatric assistance as a result of his living conditions. (Id. at 10-11.) He states that he made many requests to receive medical treatment, that his name was put on a sick call list, but that he never received medical attention. (Id. at 10 and Exh. F.)
Plaintiff may allege that the conditions in segregation were unconstitutional and that prison officers acted with deliberate indifference to Plaintiff's serious medical and psychological needs while he was in segregation. The complaint, however, is unclear whether or how the currently named Defendants were involved with such claims. Plaintiff clearly sets out how Tarr, Harris, Franklin, Bass, and Ramos were involved with his claim that prison disciplinary procedures were not followed. Yet, he provides no information whether these Defendants were made aware of or were responsible for the conditions in segregation or whether they were made aware of Plaintiff's medical and psychological needs. In fact, Exhibit F to his complaint indicates that another officer (D. Bowman) put Plaintiff on the sick call list while he was in segregation. (R. 1, Complaint, Exh. F, 28.)
Accordingly, to the extent Plaintiff seeks to allege that the segregation living conditions were unconstitutional or that Plaintiff suffered serious medical and psychological needs to which Stateville officers acted with deliberate indifference, such claims are dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff may submit an amended complaint that clearly sets out these claims, that names the officers personally associated with these claims, and that clearly states how the defendants were involved with these claims. Plaintiff is given 60 days to submit an amended complaint. His failure to submit an amended complaint may be construed as his desire not to proceed with this case and will result in dismissal.
The court notes that the grievances attached to the current complaint do not address the issues of the conditions in segregation or Plaintiff's inability to obtain medical and psychological care. See (R. 1, Complaint, Exh. E.) Although Plaintiff need not plead in the complaint that he exhausted administrative remedies, he may be required to demonstrate exhaustion before the court addresses the merits of the claims. See Pavey v. Conley, 544 F.3d 739, 742 (7th Cir. 2008).
The Defendants' motion to dismiss  is granted. Plaintiff's claims about the conditions of his segregation confinement and the lack of medical and psychological care he received are dismissed without prejudice to Plaintiff submitting an amended complaint that more fully sets out these claims and that names as Defendants those persons who were personally involved with those claims. Plaintiff's § 1983 claim challenging the procedures associated with his disciplinary action is dismissed. The dismissal is without prejudice to Plaintiff raising, either in state court or in the amended complaint as a pendent claim, a state-law claim, if one exists, about officers violating institutional rules. Plaintiff is given 60 days from the date of this order to submit an amended complaint. His failure to do so may be construed as his desire not to proceed and will result in dismissal of this case.

CBSNEWS – Despite the reality prepaid debit notes were more popular then ever, most people are carrying invisible charges that can demonstrate agonizing for consumers.
Merely three-out of 10 surveyed prepaid notes entirely disclose their unique rates, reported on an innovative new review from CreditCards.com. The analysis studied the expenses designed and printed on preferred cards bought at large stores, drugstores and payday financial institutions.
Regrettably, more often than not customers could end enjoying hundreds of dollars every year in unwanted rates.
About 12 million People in the us use prepaid debit business every 4 weeks, mainly because they want to get control over his or her funds, as stated by a 2014 Pew charity Trusts report. Because prepaid cards are not charge cards — you can’t devote clear of the levels that’s loaded from the card — they could be appealing to customers who would like to shun getting yourself into credit.
However also generally entice consumers who are small and then have lower-than-average incomes, extremely any extra charge can take a huge chew from their costs.
“a number of people include rushing toward prepaid business because they do not need the effort and prices that are included with a banking account, but https://www.pdqtitleloans.com/payday-loans-al/ these black-jack cards come with its rates, and so they frequently are certainly not shared precisely,” believed CreditCards.com individual business specialist Matt Schulz. “The thing you are clueless will set you back lots of money.”
a market with a Green mark credit Gold exactly who makes 20 expenditures per month, four Automatic Teller Machine withdrawals and four earnings reloads could spend nearly $35.75 per month in charges. Those with the ACE Elite Card could shell out $45 four weeks on a comparable foundation, Schulz stated.
But having the fee build makes a huge distinction. In particular, by avoiding out-of-network ATMs, a consumer will cut upon costs. But two of the 10 playing cards reviewed — the ACE top dogs credit and so the Opt+ cards –failed to disclose the out-of-network Automatic Teller Machine price, the analysis found.
Given the high costs of prepaid debit business, it may possibly be better long term for many of those clientele to open a bank account, Schulz mentioned. Some prepaid debit business demand $1 for order and create fees for balance concerns or reduced purchases, not all of which can be very clear into consumer.
About one off four homes in America can be unbanked — which means they don’t really get a banking account — or include underbanked, implies they may get one bank account but use alternative capital like payday lenders, as reported by the government money cover Corp. There’s a sturdy back link between payday creditors and prepaid plans debit business: Pew found that 40 per cent of prepaid debit card holders used another financial merchandise particularly an online payday loan.
The prepaid debit poster aided by the top disclosures tended to staying those from widely known manufacturer, like for example United states show, the study receive. The three playing cards that entirely achieved the disclosure advice fix by way of the buyers Investment policies Bureau will be the United states show Bluebird, United states show Serve and Green Dot Visa Gold.
“Some of the household labels in prepaid playing cards include easiest bets,” Schulz included.

Default carries huge cost to state
New York state could lose $2 billion or more if Congress fails to raise the debt limit
Published 10:17 pm, Wednesday, October 9, 2013
If Congress fails to raise the federal debt ceiling this month, it could reverse the progress that New York has made in digging out from the 2008 financial collapse, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in an analysis released Wednesday.
And the cost to New York could easily hit $2 billion, or even more if the higher borrowing expenses that would face the state in coming years is counted.
"Congressional dysfunction has already hurt New York and the nation's economies by fueling a lack of consumer confidence nationwide," Cuomo said in a release. "Jeopardizing our full faith and credit is a new level of recklessness and irresponsibility that would have dire consequences."
For the past week, the federal shutdown — prompted by a fight over the budget and the implementation of Obamacare — has dominated headlines. But the potential failure to raise the nation's $16.7 trillion debt limit by the end of October is looming as a potentially larger event.
If that level isn't raised, it could shake foreign investors' confidence in the U.S. dollar — leading to sharp increases in interest rates and sending shock waves through the stock market. That could hit Wall Street, which has served as a jobs engine for New York state.
In addition to unrealized tax revenues that would stem from job losses in New York City's vast finance industry, a default or threat of default could raise the state's own borrowing costs, imposing another $1 billion in interest payments over the next two decades, the governor predicted.
New Yorkers could also lose out on the array of federal payments that come into the state.
Politically, Cuomo has on several occasions pointed out the contrast between the fractured, paralyzed Congress and the state Legislature, which for all its failings has passed on-time budgets since 2011.
In related news, Rep. Chris Gibson, R-Kinderhook, will on Thursday join more than 40 other largely moderate Democrats and Republicans who have created the No Labels group to call for an end to the partisan gridlock. To date, Gibson has supported the GOP strategy.

TWO senior Tories discussed the growing pensions crisis with the leader of the Trades Union Congress yesterday in a historic meeting between traditional enemies that could mark the beginning of an unlikely political relationship.
Michael Howard, the shadow chancellor, and David Willetts, the shadow work and pensions secretary, described their talks with John Monks at the TUC's London headquarters as "friendly and useful".
They hope that the common ground established between the Tory front bench and the TUC on pensions could lead to discussions with unions on other, more difficult issues involving other members of Iain Duncan Smith's team.
The prospect of an alliance with the Tories over pensions prompted one union leader with close links to Downing Street to threaten to pull out of the TUC earlier this week. Sir Ken Jackson's protest was seen as a sign of the Labour leadership's unease.
Mr Howard and Mr Willetts discussed the erosion of final salary pension schemes with Mr Monks and exchanged policy ideas. They agreed that the Government had failed to acknowledge the scale of the problem.
Mr Monks said: "Of all issues, pensions policy decisions can affect people for years to come and the TUC will take every opportunity to put our case for quality pensions."
He said the TUC was unhappy about the growing number of workers who are being asked to take on responsibility for their pensions and their performance, as more and more companies close final salary schemes and move to money purchase schemes.
Their talks came as it emerged that large insurance companies are advising some older workers to opt back into the state pension scheme, Serps, to avoid losing out on income in their retirement.
Mr Willets accused ministers of ignoring the "crisis" facing funded pensions, which has blown up after a string of companies announced the closure of final salary schemes.
"Pension schemes are being closed at a rapid rate and the issue is too serious to ignore," he said.
"We are happy to talk with any serious organisation that has ideas on how to tackle the problem.
"We wanted to have their views on the pension crisis this country is facing. Everybody recognises that this is a very serious problem apart from the Government who continue to be in a state of denial.
"We agreed with the TUC to keep our discussions on policy ideas confidential, but we hope the dialogue will continue. We want to keep in touch with them on pensions."
Mr Willetts, who is carrying out a major review of Tory pension policy, has commissioned Andrew Mitchell, a former Tory social security minister, to study whether the party should produce a proposal for replacing the current state pension scheme with one based on stock market investments.
He said: "If we can come up with an alternative to the state pension, I would like to do that."

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Flows
Why does it appear you are not following the current flow release schedule?
There are several reasons why it may not appear that the flow releases from Lewiston Dam are following the current release schedule: stream gaging uncertainty, dam operational logistics, or other releases being conducted.
Stream Gaging Uncertainty. Flow releases from Lewiston dam are measured by the Lewiston stream gage located just downstream of the dam. Accurately measuring stream flow is difficult because the shape of the river changes over time, especially during periods of high flow. The real-time flow information reported live on the internet can have significant errors due to changing river conditions, equipment malfunction, or data transmission errors. This real-time flow data is provisional and subject to change until it has been quality controlled and compared to physical flow measurements. The uncertainty associated with the final quality controlled stream flow data typically ranges from 5 percent to 10 percent. That means when flow releases to the Trinity River are 10,000 cfs, the reported stream flow could be off by as much 1,000 cfs. The uncertainty associated with the provisional real-time flow data can be much greater.
One example of stream gaging uncertainty occurred on May 2, 2011. The target flow release that day was 8,000 cfs but the real-time stream gage data showed 10,400 cfs. A physical flow measurement taken that morning confirmed the true flow was 8,000 cfs and real-time flow data was subsequently amended. This data will remain provisional until the U.S. Geological finalizes the flow records later this year.
Dam Operational Logistics. The Bureau of Reclamation operates Lewiston Dam to follow the current release schedule. The water is released through two large radial gates that are raised and lowered to attain the target flow. Small changes in gate height can make a significant difference in the flow rate because the gates are large. However, small changes in gate height are difficult because they are so big and heavy.
A typical flow release change is a multi-step process. First, the gate height is set to the target level. Dam operators then wait for about an hour for the downstream flows to stabilize, then read the flow reported by the Lewiston stream gage. A fine tuning adjustment is then made if the initial gate height setting was slightly too low or too high. Again, the dam operator waits an hour for the downstream flows to stabilize, then reads the stream gage. Additional fine tune adjustments may be required. This process may take several hours during which time the flow release maybe just over or under the target flow release level.
Other releases are being conducted. The current flow release schedule only lists flow releases for the purpose of river restoration. The Bureau of Reclamation routinely releases water to the Trinity River for other purposes such as “safety of dams”, temperature mitigation, or tribal ceremonies (see “What are the Dance Flows?” below). These other releases are described under the typical flow releases page on our website and water volumes are subsequently reported on the water-year summaries page. You may sign up to receive notifications for all flow releases to the Trinity River through our release email list.
What is the highest flow that can be released from Lewiston Dam to the Trinity River?
This question really has two parts: restoration flows, and safety of dam releases.
Restoration Flows. The largest flow that may currently be released for river restoration purposes is 11,000 cfs. The flow rate is controlled by Lewiston Dam, and measured (estimated) both at the Dam and at flow gages downstream. Please see the question above, “Why does it appear you are not following the current flow release schedule?” to understand why flows may not match the TRRP release schedule.
Safety of Dam Releases. During the winter, the Bureau of Reclamation maintains lower levels in Trinity Lake to provide a buffer in the event of an extremely large winter storm. The quantity of that buffer is based on several factors, and primarily references many years of hydrologic record for the basin. Maintaining storage space is a very important aspect of flood control operations, and is fundamental in protecting areas downstream of Trinity Dam, as well as the dam itself. As winter storms fill Trinity Lake, the Bureau of Reclamation may need to increase releases to the Trinity River to maintain the lower lake levels. Because these elevated winter releases help protect the dam, they are commonly called “Safety of Dams releases” and may or may not occur in conjunction with actual winter storms.
The largest flow release to date ws 14,400 cfs due to winter storms in 1974. Lewiston dam has the capacity to release 30,000 cfs to the Trinity River.
What were pre-dam floods like?
Storms caused frequent floods on the Trinity River prior to flow control by the dams. The U.S. Geological Survey has maintained a flow gage at Lewiston below the current dam, since fall of 1911. The peak flow measured at this gage measured a gage height of 27.30 feet on December 22nd, 1955, which provides an estimate of 71,600 cfs (Flows in the Trinity River at Lewiston would have exceeded 100,000 cfs during the 1964 storm, had Trinity Dam not been built). From 1911 to 1960 (when the dams began regulating flows), flow measurements exceeded 20,000 cfs 19 separate times with an average yearly peak flow of about 18,500 cfs.
What is the purpose of restoration flows?
Variable flows, particularly when combined with channel rehabilitation and gravel augmentation, are the most effective way to restore the Trinity River. TRRP restoration flows are minimal compared to pre-dam floods that exceeded 70,000 cfs, but are sufficient to maintain a dynamic and ecologically robust river. Please see our Flow Overview page and other pages within the Flow section of our website.
How are flow schedules developed?
Based on preliminary water year forecasts in February and March, technical representatives of the Trinity River Restoration Program and program partners develop flow release recommendations to meet various restoration objectives and management targets listed in Chapter 8 of the Trinity River Flow Evaluation Final Report [PDF – 10mb]. Deliberations start with the typical flow release schedule recommended in the Record of Decision that may be adapted to meet specific restoration needs for the current year. The flow recommendations are then presented to the Trinity Adaptive Management Working Group (TAMWG) and the Trinity Management Council (TMC) in late March or early April for consideration. The flow release recommendation approved by the TMC is then forwarded to the Bureau of Reclamation, which has the final authority over dam releases.
How can I stay informed about current and planned flow releases?
TRRP maintains a Current Release Schedule page.
The public can sign up to recieve informational updates about future releases by phone or email.
Real-time stream flow and flood forecast information for the Trinity River and its tributaries is available on our River Conditions page.
Why are restoration flows in the spring?
The typical flow hydrograph was designed to mimic snowmelt patterns in spring and early summer. These were historically the most reliable pattern in the hydrograph and have additional management benefits of avoiding scour of fish eggs, potentially controlling seed germination for greater diversity of riparian hardwoods, and for greater certainty of the water year type.
Do restoration flows “drain the lake?”
Trinity and Lewiston Dams were built to divert water to the Central Valley (see Diversion Facilities and Ops, and Diversion Impacts). In the early years of opperation, 90% of the water collected by the dams was transferred to the Central Valley, leaving only 10% to flow down the river. As the impact of diversion on fisheries became better understood, the ratio gradually shifted. Presently about 50% of the water coming into the lakes is allowed to flow down the river. The other 50% continues to be diverted to the Central Valley via the Carr tunnels and Whiskeytown Lake. Restoration Flows are possible due to decreased water diversions to the Central Valley. Therefore, restoration flows have negligible impact on the long-term water storage of Trinity Lake.
From late-winter through early summer, the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation provides forecasts of expected levels for Trinity Lake over the next year (see “Water Operations Analysis” on the CVO Reports page). TRRP provides a graphical view of these forecasts in relation to boat ramp elevations on our Lake Conditions page.
How are the amount of water diversions to the central valley determined?
The amounts and timing of Trinity basin exports to the Central Valley are determined by subtracting Trinity River scheduled flows and targeted carryover storage from the forecasted Trinity water supply. Trinity River Division operations are integrated with the Shasta Division and other CVP water supply reservoirs. Exports are made after considering many different operational factors including: water year type, minimum flow and water temperature requirements for the Trinity and Sacramento Rivers, storage levels and refill potentials in both reservoirs, as well as demand for water supply and hydroelectric power generation.
What are the “Boat Dance Flows”?
Tribal nations along the Trinity River have long traditions centered on the river. These include the Boat Dances of the Hoopa Valley Tribe and the Yurok Tribe. The Hoopa make arrangements with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to maintain their tradition through a release of water from Trinity and Lewiston Lakes, typically in late August or early September of odd-numbered years (2009, 2011, etc.). Flows are typically reach 2-3,000 cfs with about a 1 week total period for ramping up, holding for a day or two, then ramping back down again to summer base-flow. These flow releases are separtate and apart from the Trinity River Restoration Program flow release, and do not count toward the restoration water allotment.
High flows caused trees and other woody debris to fall into the river near my house. does the Trinity River Restoration Program plan to remove the debris from the river?
The Trinity River Restoration Program has no authority, and is not responsible, for removing woody debris from the river. Private landowners and public land management agencies make decisions about removing debris that might impair public safety, threaten the integrity of bridges or other structures, or increase the likelihood of local flooding. If landowners elect to remove debris, we urge that landowners are cautious and follow safe work practices. Landowners should contact the California Department of Fish and Game to obtain appropriate permits.
If left within the river or floodplain, fallen trees and bushes do play an important role in the ecology of the river. Large woody debris provides cover, shade, and structure for fish and wildlife. It also causes local scour that refreshes gravel, and increases the number and size of pools or holes for fish to utilize during low flow periods. The organic materials of woody debris improve soil structure and nutrients on the floodplain. Large woody debris contributes to the geomorphic processes, resulting in the creation and maintenance of the complex river habitats required by Chinook and Coho salmon and steelhead. More information is available on our pages about Rehabilitation Concepts and Large Wood Monitoring.

The West Pier in Howth is scattered with a range of fish shops and restaurants. The Oar House Restaurant is nestled in amongst this stretch of seafood extravagance. The Oar House serves the freshest of fresh fish, simply and sympathetically cooked in an open plan kitchen. In addition to the regular menu, each day the specials are based on the catch that day, giving customers the opportunity to sample seafood as it should be, straight from the sea.

More NHS shame in Wales. A constituent, living near Llanidloes, in Montgomeryshire has lost her hearing. A Cochlear implant would give this young woman (around her mid-twenties) her hearing back. Her consultant tells us that Wales in the only UK country where the NHS refuses to pay for these implants, which I am told would cost around £32,000. Her consultant has described Health Commission Wales' treatment of my constituent as "outrageous" and "cruel" and her treatment as akin to that of a "third world country".
Ironically, I received a copy of the consultant's letter on the day that prescription charges were abolished - costing the NHS in Wales well over £32 million.
Ah well! That tells you something about Welsh Labour's priorities. Apparently its OK to give free prescriptions to the 15% of the population which was paying for them - and leaving a talented and dynamic young lady (and thousands like her) without treatment that would be available in England and Scotland.

If you ever get around to cleaning up your friends’ list on Facebook, you would likely remove people you don’t know, people you don’t remember adding, or people who aren’t people. With Facebook and its ‘open’ security options, you don’t really want strangers to be your friends. With Google+, which has far better security settings, cleaning up a friends’ list, or rather a circle is more about getting rid of people who have been inactive too long. Finding inactive people in a lengthy list on your Google+ account can be quite tiresome. Uncircle+ is a Google Chrome extension that lets you easily delete inactive people from your Google+ circles, so that you can add more people to your circles without reaching the 5000 limit. It may be noted that although a limit of 5,000 is sufficient for most people, Uncircle+ would nevertheless be helpful in de-cluttering your otherwise going-out-of-hand contact circle.
‘Inactivity’ refers to people in your selected circles that have not posted or shared anything at all, or since a chosen date. Even having a single post would mark that person as “active”. Removing inactive people will help you interact with the people who matter without being distracted.
After installation, the Uncirle+ button is added right next to your browser’s URL bar. When logged in to Google+, just hit the button to find inactive people. All you need to do is select the desired circle from the drop-down menu, along with an inactivity date (a calendar pops up). You can search all circles at once i.e., inactivity can only be checked for one circle at a time. The calendar option will only appear after you’ve selected a circle. Once the inactive members in a circle have been identified, you can choose to remove all of them or uncheck someone of them. Once done, just hit the Find Inactive People button.
You may cancel the search at any time using the Enough button, and remove your selected inactive contacts using the Remove Selected button. Depending on the time frame you give the extension and the number of people in a particular circle, the extension may or may not take a long time. The larger time period you select, the more time the extension needs to check for inactivity.
Uncircle+ is a handy extension aiming for a better Google+ experience. You can grab it at the link given below.

It is still hard to believe this is now the place I call home.
Everytime I travelled on the KCR, then MTR, stared at all the routes and connections inside the train, each time I walked through IFC building to get to church, located at the center of the skycrapers showcase, I couldn't help but wonder why and how on earth did I ever end up here?
Less than 5 mins walk westward is Sheung Wan where Lawrence now works, and at the back of my church, somehow I discovered is the famous place called the Midlevels, and Lan Kwai Fong. Admiralty, Wan Chai, Causeway Bay districts are also all within walking distance. All too overwhelming to me! Maybe it never occurs to me that Hong Kong Island is actually quite small.
It is a beautiful city, diverse, prosperous, and definitely to be proud of.
After so long being here, I've made only 2 local Hong Kong chinese friends. One works with one of our programs here called the King and I, and the other is currently a DTS student. I built a business relationship with a meat delivery guy sinceafter I became the food manager. That's about all.
Even though I live in the land called Hong Kong. Within the Black Gates of the Courtyard (where the base operates) and staff dorms, it is still very much America. It is a strange colony surrounded by at least 5 ancestral temples in the oldest (800 yrs old) village in Hong Kong. That might as well be the reason God planted us here, worshipping Him daily at the very place where Hong Kong started.
As strange as it sounds, our Courtyard IS part of the Heritage Trail along with those temples, where hundreds of tourists would come to visit every weekend. I could only wish I knew exactly what went through their minds when they saw so many kwai lows freely accessing to an ancient property which they could only take pictures of.

State Land Board approves introduction of land-banking bill
The State Land Board voted unanimously Monday to support introduction of a bill to the 2003 Legislature that would promote public access and allow the land board to manage state lands more effectively. It would allow the land board to reduce the number of isolated parcels and acquire land that would be more valuable to the trust.
"This legislation has been in the works for more than a year," said State Auditor John Morrison. "I'm pleased with the support this concept has received."
Morrison said that the land-banking program will increase revenue to the school land trust by implementing a competitive bidding process, and help recreationists and landowners get the best use of the land.
"In addition to producing revenue for the school land trust, our public lands provide great hunting, fishing and hiking for thousands of Montanans," Morrison said. "This bill promotes both of those goals."
In August 2001, Morrison asked the Department of Natural Resources and Conservation to meet with interested parties and develop land-banking legislation.
The legislation would establish a "land-banking" process, allowing the land board to use proceeds from the sale of school trust lands to buy replacement lands under specified circumstances.
It also includes a provision allowing lease holders of isolated parcels the opportunity to exchange other accessible lands for those isolated parcels rather than going through the sale process.
The legislation was born out of a study on the accessibility of state trust lands commissioned by the State Auditor's Office. The study of land in 11 counties revealed that nearly 50 percent of Montana's school trust lands are wholly surrounded by private property. It also found that 10 percent of the land is surrounded by one private landowner, while 37 percent is surrounded by multiple private landowners. The project examined 866,674 acres or 17 percent of state school trust land.
Land with one surrounding landowner brings minimal income to the school trust and typically limits or prevents public access to the land. In Wheatland County, 20 percent of state school trust land is surrounded by one private landowner. Fourteen percent of trust land in Lewis and Clark and Garfield counties is surrounded by one landowner.
The accessibility study found that 49 percent of state trust lands do not have public access. The percentage varies greatly by county with non-accessible acreage as high as 78 percent in Treasure County.
In Cascade County, 36 percent of state trust lands do not have public access. In Lewis and Clark County that number rises to 54 percent, and is 72 percent in Garfield County.
"I appreciate the time and energy devoted to this project by land board staff and DNRC staff," Morrison said. "This cooperative effort will result in a win-win situation for everyone."

News and Observer
Letters to the Editor
– As I speak with groups as a parks and greenways advocate, the first question always asked is, “What’s going to happen with Dix?” Saving the 306 acres of Dix park is not only a chance of a lifetime, it’s the opportunity of a century.
Numerous visionaries and business leaders such as Greg Poole and Jim Goodmon have spent a decade working with elected officials and community leaders to secure this deal, done legally with great care and thoughtfulness. At this point, to undo this opportunity to save Dix park is just unconscionable.
I say this as guardian of a schizophrenic brother, and I clearly understand the lack of funding and resources for mental health. But at this point when so much has already been done, it’s time to unbundle these two issues and address them both completely but separately.
More than ever, it’s time to put partisan politics aside and do the right thing by allowing the original agreement to stand and let Dix park live in the hearts and minds of our citizens for generations to come.

We are delighted to announce that ANC, through it's fleet vessel M/V Abyssinian, is actively participating in the Adopt a Ship initiative for a 4th consecutive year. This remarkable program, which fosters educational collaboration between seafarers and students, connects the maritime world with the younger generation, enhancing understanding and appreciation for the shipping industry.
Through the Adopt a Ship initiative, M/V Abyssinian will become an educational partner with schools, allowing students to virtually "adopt" the vessel and its crew. This unique opportunity enables students to gain insights into the daily operations of a working vessel, maritime practices, and the significance of global trade.
ANC takes immense pride in supporting this meaningful initiative, as it aligns with our core values of promoting maritime safety, environmental stewardship, and fostering relationships with the communities we serve. By engaging with students and educators, M/V Abyssinian aims to inspire the next generation of seafarers, marine engineers, and maritime enthusiasts, contributing to the sustainable growth of the shipping industry.

For my senior thesis (History 485) I analyzed the 1946 film The Best Years of Our Lives. This thesis explores the relationship of working class women and post-war cinema as they were both expected to mend the traumas of World War II.
Abstract: Production of the 1946 film The Best Years of Our Lives took place over the mobilization of World War II, while it was released during demobilization. The film sees three returning GI’s and their experiences readjusting to civilian life and relationships. The women of the film are Milly, Peggy, Marie, and Wilma and all represent different expectations of post-war American women. This paper aims to explore the ways in which this film would compare to others made both during and after the war and how the distinct uncertainty of 1946 is manifested in its storyline. The first section explores the production of The Best Years of Our Lives, as producer Sam Goldwyn felt this film was important to helping ease American audiences, servicemen and civilian. In doing so Goldwyn implored various methods to ensure this film was done correctly including hiring many veterans for the cast. Goldwyn was working within a strict set of parameters which is explained in the next section. The discussion of censorship and propaganda illustrates how Hollywood promoted ideals to support the war effort and built a relationship with the Roosevelt Administration. Following this is an analysis of women’s roles in the war and how those roles are represented through film. The female characters of The Best Years are explored and compared to women in films later in the decade to illustrate the beginnings of the World War II myth. Exaggerations in femininity and sexuality reflect the anxieties of postwar and pre-Cold War attitudes as well as place greater significance on men in the war and machoism. The conclusion is a discussion of World War II in the American memory as the Good War and how a film like The Best Years contributed to the myth. America’s insistence to retreat from wartime internationalism and the emergence of the Cold War is the final discussion as The Best Years would find itself blacklisted for being communist propaganda until the beginning of the Korean War.

Rangers forward Marian Gaborik
's big month of November didn't go unnoticed by the NHL on Tuesday, as the NHL's goal-scoring leader and co-leader in points was named by the league as its No. 3 Star for November.
Gaborik capped off his month of November with two goals against Pittsburgh at Madison Square Garden on Monday night. He now has a league-high 21 goals -- three more than the two players tied for second-place on the list. Gaborik also is tied with San Jose's Joe Thornton in the race for the Art Ross Trophy. Both Thornton and Gaborik have 37 points.
Thornton was named the NHL's No. 2 Star for November. Jarome Iginla of Calgary, who had 20 points in November, was the No. 1 Star.
At his current pace, Gaborik could become the first player in Rangers history to score 60 goals in a season. He also ahead of where Jaromir Jagr was in his record-setting 2005-06 season. Jagr scored 54 goals that year and also had 21 through the first 27 Rangers games, but he did not get his 22nd goal until several more games had passed. Gaborik can exceed Jagr's pace with his next goal.
In the month of November alone, Gaborik tallied 19 points (11 goals, eight assists) in 13 games, becoming this season's first player to reach the 20-goal mark. Gaborik notched points in 11 games, beginning with the game-winning goal in a 1-0 victory over the Boston Bruins Nov. 1. He recorded a goal and an assist in a 4-2 win over the Edmonton Oilers Nov. 6, scored two goals a 4-2 loss to the Washington Capitals Nov. 17 and recorded a season-high four points (two goals, two assists) in a 7-4 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets Nov. 23.
Dating back to the end of the 2008-09 season, when he was playing for the Minnesota Wild, Gaborik has tallied 34 goals in his past 42 NHL regular-season games.

There are a variety of themes or issues that may impact relationships in various ways, and one of the most significant for many people – and for understandable reasons – is grief. The loss of a loved one or friend is never easy, and there are times where this sort of thing can heavily impact many of our closest relationships.
At Sunrise Solutions, we’re proud to offer numerous forms of marriage counseling, couples therapy and even grief counseling to patients around Draper. Here are some of the ways grief may impact a relationship, some of the approaches couples take to managing grief, and some other healthy basics to be aware of in this area.
Different People Experience Grief in Varying Ways
One of the first ways that grief can impact relationships is the way each person experiences it. It’s important to understand that everyone has different backgrounds, outlooks and feelings on life, so they may handle grief in completely different ways. This can cause conflict if one partner is expecting the other to experience and act a certain way, when that isn’t reality.
For instance, one partner may find solace in talking about the person that has passed, while another might want to remain silent and avoid the topic altogether. This can lead to arguments or feelings of misunderstanding between two people, so it’s best to be aware of this before it becomes an issue.
Grieving at Different “Paces”
Down related lines, it’s also important to note that everyone grieves at their own speed. Some people may immediately accept the loss and start moving on, while others might take months or years to come to terms with it.
So long as each partner is supportive of one another’s process, there shouldn’t be any problem here – but again, this can cause issues if one partner feels the other isn’t moving on fast enough or is spending too much time in grief.
Differing Needs for Emotional Support
Another possible complicator from grief can be a difference in needs for emotional support. A partner that is currently grieving may need more care, understanding and attention than the other, making it difficult for both to feel satisfied in the relationship.
Again, this comes down to communication and understanding – if each partner knows what their expectations are going into it and works together on finding a middle ground, this problem can be easily avoided.
Exacerbating Existing Issues
If your relationships already has its fair share of issues, the additional stress and strain from grief can make matters much worse. This is especially true if a couple lacked communication or understanding prior to the passing – sudden changes in emotions and needs can easily overwhelm people that weren’t used to being so open about things before.
In cases like this, certain forms of counseling can be immensely helpful – both for learning how to cope with the passing and for dealing with any existing relationship issues. Professional help can be invaluable in these sorts of circumstances, so don’t be afraid to look into it if you think your situation could benefit from it.
Healthy Approaches for Managing Grief in Relationships
While this is far from an exhaustive list, here are a few general approaches that are often effective for both partners within a relationship while managing grief of any kind:
- Full honesty: It’s important that both of you are open and honest with each other about your feelings on the passing – keeping any issues to yourself can only make matters worse. Take the time to listen and understand each other, as well.
- Take breaks: If emotions are running high, take a few minutes apart from one another to relax and decompress. This can help both of you go back into the conversation with a clearer head afterwards.
- Focus on supporting: Direct your energy towards helping each other instead of trying to top one another in the sadness department.
- Be patient: Everyone grieves differently, so don’t be too hard on either of you if it takes longer than expected to move past it. Above all else, treat each other with understanding and kindness – that’s what matters most at a time like this.
- Prepare for challenges: Especially if grief is due to the passing of a loved one that was close to both of you, be aware of the fact that some challenges may arise in the relationship. Work together to navigate them and try to come out stronger on the other side.
- Consider counseling: Even if grief issues are not causing major issues in the relationship, talking to a professional can help both of you process it and come out stronger from the experience. It doesn’t hurt to look into it. And if your relationship is experiencing struggles partially or fully due to the grief, it can be an invaluable tool.
Ultimately, grief is difficult no matter the circumstance – but when two people are working together to manage it, there’s always hope for coming out on top after all is said and done. Don’t let grief take over your relationship – instead, use it as an opportunity to strengthen your bond and grow together.
At Sunrise Solutions, we are here to support you both during this difficult time – so please don’t hesitate to reach out and let us help. Contact us today to learn about any of our couples therapy.

20 January 2012
On 19th January South London Army Cadets and their Adult Leaders were among uniformed youth groups who met The Mayor of London Boris Johnson at the Merton Sea Cadets Centre in Mitcham, London. He saw and tasted the range of healthy foods available and helped cook the ‘compo’ rations of meatballs and pasta, and chicken curry.
Under the expert guidance of seventeen year old Cadet Regimental Sergeant Major Brogan Twite he inspected the parade of uniformed cadets and even gave several drill commands. During a tour of the building he saw a range of activities undertaken by a variety uniformed youth organisations.
The Mayor was unveiling the new programme which would boost the job prospects of thousands of young Londoners and steer them away from involvement in crime. In the plans outlined by the Mayor, thousands of youngsters will have the opportunity to join uniformed groups like the Guides, Boys Brigade and Cadets. The £1.3 million programme, being run by the Safer London Foundation, will help young people develop vital skills and instil discipline and responsibility in young people, particularly those who are or at risk of being excluded from education, training or employment.
The initiative is part of Team London, the Mayor’s strategy to harness volunteers to deliver key projects to improve the quality of life and opportunities of Londoners. Speaking at the launch, the Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: ‘Uniformed groups are a fantastic way for youngsters to get involved in a myriad of activities, which will help equip them with the skills they need to succeed in life. It’s a modern tragedy that so many of our young people are struggling to get a foothold in the jobs market and are drifting into crime. By instilling self reliance, discipline and a sense of competition, young people can aspire to a better future.’
The Safer London Foundation will work in partnership with the You London uniformed groups- Volunteer Police Cadets, St John Ambulance, Army Cadets, Air Cadets, Sea Cadets, Guides, Scouts, Boys’ Brigade and Girls’ Brigade.

text: Shift is about a change in perspective and hits upon those hot-button topics not often discussed. The first message, Religion, is about understanding that relationships come before religion. It’s about living out our faith as an example to others and connecting with non-believers. The second message, Relationships, implores us to take a posture of acceptance, for it is through acceptance that transformation can begin. The third message, Racism, continues to impress upon us that we need to get to know someone’s true, inner self before making any decisions about them as a person. Unfortunately, our culture can be harsh, so let’s represent Christ and lead with love in all that we do.


Viewing the roles that have a privilege
To understand who has various privileges, you can view the roles that have a privilege. You can do this in various ways. The way you view roles and privileges depends on your familiarity with role and privilege names.

Auckland. Virat Kohli, the captain of the Indian cricket team, expressed happiness over the victory in the first T20 against New Zealand and said that he got tremendous support in the field. Kohli said that we just enjoyed the match. Coming here two days ago and playing a game like this, it was fantastic. Kohli said that when we were playing in the stadium, it felt like 80 percent of the audience was supporting us.
The audience encouraged us a lot. The Indian captain said that whenever a target of more than 200 is met, everyone is expected to perform better. We only paid attention to how we should bat to win. KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer batted well which is expected to continue. Other batsmen also played their role properly. Apart from this, our bowlers also did not give an opportunity to play openly to the opposing team. The runs saved by our bowlers also made a difference. We have done well in T20 International in the last one year. Along with this, Virat also praised the Auckland pitch and said that runs have always been scored on this ground. It has proved to be quite good for the batsmen.

Everton are looking to replace Marco Silva permanently.
According to The Times, Mauricio Pochettino has been identified as a target and an approach has already been made.
The former Tottenham boss was sacked earlier this season after a poor start but his quality is beyond question. If Everton manage to land him, it would be quite a coup for them.
The Argentine took Spurs to a Champions League final last year and he built them into the side they are today.
Marco Silva was given his marching orders after the derby defeat against Liverpool earlier this week. Despite considerable financial backing in the summer, Silva failed to deliver on the pitch with Everton.
It will be interesting to see if they can convince Pochettino to take over.
The former Spurs boss is likely to have better offers at his disposal and Everton will have to work very hard to convince him. Pochettino was being linked with the likes of Bayern and Real Madrid not so long ago.
He is a top-class coach who is destined for the top. A move to Everton might not be tempting for him right now.
Having said that, he would be the perfect manager to rebuild Everton once again. It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming weeks.


James Harden delivered 32 points and a triple-double in his Brooklyn debut, Kevin Durant scored a season-high 42 points in his first game back with his former teammate, and the Nets showed off their potent potential in a 122-115 victory over the Orlando Magic on Sunday (AEDT).
Harden had 14 assists and 12 rebounds after being cleared to play earlier in the afternoon after all the players in the blockbuster trade that brought him from Houston had completed their physicals. Harden also had nine turnovers.
He had no practice time with the Nets and sure didn't need it, becoming the first player in franchise history to have a triple-double in his debut.
"Those stats don't mean anything, I just try to do everything on the court in my ability to help the team win," he said post-game. "I've gotta get my turnovers down."
Durant made five three-pointers in his 10th game back following an 18-month layoff after rupturing his Achilles tendon in the 2019 NBA Finals. He hiked his average to 30.7 points, which would be his highest since he scored a league-leading 32 per game and won NBA MVP honours for Oklahoma City in 2014.
That was a couple years after he and Durant helped lead the Thunder to the NBA Finals and their new pairing could have similar possibilities. The Nets might still be even better when they get back Kyrie Irving, who missed his sixth straight game after leaving the team last week for personal reasons.
Nikola Vucevic had 34 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists for the short-handed Magic, who lost their fifth straight. They were much more competitive than the others, including a 124-97 loss in Boston on Friday.
Harden didn't score until making a pair of free throws with 6.8 seconds left in the first quarter and didn't make his first basket until a layup with 10:07 remaining in the half. But his playmaking was on track from the start, pushing up the floor to find teammates rather than often dribbling down the shot clock in Houston.
He got his shot going during an 11-point third quarter, capping it with a deep three-pointer just before the buzzer to give Brooklyn an 84-83 lead.
Magic: Steve Clifford successfully challenged a foul called on the Magic with 8.6 seconds left and his team trailing by seven. He improved to five-for-five on coach's challenges this season. ... Terrence Ross scored 23 points.
Nets: Durant has scored 25 or points in nine straight games, setting a new franchise record. ... Coach Steve Nash said F/C Nicolas Claxton, who has been out all season with a right knee injury, likely wouldn't return until later in the first half of the season, probably in February.
CLOSING IN ON KYRIE?
Nash said Irving was hopefully close to returning, but said no date has ben determined. He wants the point guard to have proper time to ramp up his activities accordingly following his layoff. He said Irving has been working out on is own and could do so with a group of players Sunday during a day off.
Magic: Visit New York Knicks on Tuesday (AEDT).
Nets: Host Milwaukee on Tuesday (AEDT).

The continuation of COVID public health orders cannot be defended by claiming a health emergency continues to exist given the relaxation of mandates and the return to normalcy, insists respected Vancouver lawyer Peter Gall.
In the last month, he has filed three petitions on behalf of health care professionals in BC Supreme Court and with the privacy commissioner demanding the province and the public health officer justify continuing orders that trample the rights of nurses and doctors.
“We have asked the public health office repeatedly to discuss with our clients any contrary scientific or other evidence they may have to justify the continuation of the vaccination mandate or the public disclosure of the private medical information of health care professionals, but up until now, the government has declined to do so,” Gall said.
He added the orders were premised on “an immediate and significant risk to public health throughout a region or the province” that no longer exists “given the reduced severity of the virus and changing government responses to it.”
“I know the government doesn’t want to get into exceptions but

PEORIA — A 1-year-old boy sustained minor cuts to his face Friday night when his father allegedly punched and shattered a window in a van parked outside a local restaurant.
Police said a warrant has been issued for the arrest of Demetrise Harper, 31, on charges of reckless conduct, criminal damage to property and endangering the life of a child.
Police were called to Church’s Chicken at 500 S. Western Ave. at about 8:20 p.m. Friday. Harper’s girlfriend told officers he became angry with her and punched and broke a window on the van. Their 1-year-old son was sitting inside the van and was hit with pieces of the shattered glass, according to the police report, which said the cuts were minor.
Harper fled the scene, according to the police report.
