Neighbour brands councillors 'little Hitlers' in planning row over terraced houses in Duke of Edinburgh Road, Sutton
11:40am Monday 26th November 2012 in News By Mike Murphy-Pyle, Chief Reporter
A neighbour facing the prospect of living opposite a new 10 home terrace has branded councillors "little Hitlers" for giving the unpopular planning application the green light.
Sutton Council's development control committee gave planning permission to a scheme to build the row of three and four bed homes on the site of soon-to-be-demolished Orlit houses in Duke of Edinburgh Road in The Wrythe.
Almost 40 neighbours signed a petition against the development which an objector said was like trying to "fit a quart into a pint pot" but councillors voted to grant planning permission to the project at the meeting on Wednesday, November 21.
The plans involve demolishing three pairs of two storey flat-roofed Orlit houses from the 60s and replacing them with a terrace of 10 three and four bedroom houses with 15 parking spaces.
Neighbours said the plans would bring too many people to the area, were out of keeping with the rest of the street, did not have enough parking and would block light from the houses across the road.
Speaking at the meeting on behalf of the 39 people who signed a petition against the plan, Tom Webster, who lives directly opposite the site, said: "It's like fitting a quart into a pint pot.
"We do understand the demands to improve the area's housing stock but you are democratically elected councillors and you have a duty of care to you residents - that includes improving the environment people live in.
"If you allow this in its existing form we do not feel that duty will be fulfilled."
Some councillors on the panel raised concerns about the project. Councillor Graham Witham said: "You only need one reason [to turn down a planning application] and I don't think these buildings as designed are compatible with the street scene."
Coun Mary Burstow called for something "a bit better designed, quite frankly".
But the application was backed by the council's planning officers and the committee's chairman Councillor John Leach and the proposal was carried.
After the meeting Mr Webster said: "The whole process was weighted against us. the chairman wanted to drive it through. They're supposed to be democratically elected but they're just little Hitlers who just want to push what they want down your throat.
"This will be a blight on the neighbourhood."

Here's a quick, fun craft to do for Christmas. My daughter is 2 1/2 and she loved doing this Christmas Tree Sun Catcher.
The original idea was from Alpha Mom's Christmas Tree Sun Catcher which I found on Pinterest. Of course, I improvised a little based on the supplies I had on-hand.
- contact paper
- 12″x12″ green card stock or construction paper
- stuff to decorate your tree with (we used circle punches and glitter)
- star punch, cut out or Post-It note
- arrange 1″ x 12″ strips of paper in the shape of a tree on a piece of contact paper
- decorate your tree on the sticky side
- sprinkle with glitter
- place a star on top of the tree
- place another piece of contact paper on top of your tree and seal the paper together
- cut around the edges leaving about 1/2″ border to make sure the tree seals
Our results didn't quite look like the original idea but I love the concept of this craft. And my girl loved making it – especially doing the glitter part.

Best protein toppings for my salad?
Dear Pondering Protein,
Everyone knows that the best part about hitting the salad bar is having free reign over all the toppings! As you know, when it comes to protein toppings for your salads, there's a long list of options; but with so many options to choose from, it can be difficult to decide which ones are the healthiest. Ultimately, the "best" protein to add to your salad is the one that will satisfy your appetite and contribute to a balanced diet. So, while there's no definitive answer as to which protein is the smartest choice, let's discuss some things to consider before you dig into that salad.
You are certainly correct that turkey is leaner than chicken. In fact, turkey has about two-thirds fewer calories per ounce! Turkey also contains less saturated fat, which is good for keeping your cholesterol down. While both chicken and turkey are excellent sources of protein, chicken contains almost double the amount of protein per ounce. Chicken also contains less sodium, which means it can help stabilize your blood pressure. So it really depends on what you're looking for, especially when you take into account the other foods you're eating throughout the day. It's all about balance.
There are also trade-offs to consider with the other sources of proteins you mentioned. Tuna has less calories and fat than chicken, but it also has less protein. And, as you mentioned, tuna, depending on where it's from and whether it's fresh or from a can, can also contain mercury, so you will need to keep that in mind. Eggs contain less saturated fat, but are high in cholesterol. With a family history of high cholesterol, you might want to try egg whites instead or do the whole egg, just not every single day. Don't forget that popular salad toppings like beans, nuts, and some grains are also great sources of protein, in addition to offering plenty of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Just think about all the options: bulgur, quinoa, black beans, chickpeas, kidney beans, walnuts, almonds, lentils, tofu, tempeh — the list goes on and on. You can also add some protein to your salads in the way of a dressing. What about using hummus, cottage cheese, or a yogurt-based dressing?
Each option offers different pros and cons, so try switching it up to add variety to your diet. This will also keep you excited and looking forward to your meals. If you want to investigate further, check out the USDA National Nutrient Database, which will give you information about the nutritional content of all your favorite foods. If you're a Columbia student, you may also want to check out the Get Balanced Guide for Healthier Eating.
Whichever protein you choose, keep eating those leafy greens!
Feeling out of control from binge eating
Dear Reader,
The situation you describe is, unfortunately, all too common. That is to say, you are most definitely not alone in your feelings of not being in control and having the sense that food controls your life. Disordered eating, including binge eating disorder, is an issue that affects approximately 20 million women and 10 million men at some point during their lives. While there are a number of helpful online resources that can help, it's highly recommended that you consult with a mental health professional about treatment. Fortunately, there are several reduced-cost treatment options you can take advantage of to help you on your road to recovery.
Let's start with the online resources. The National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA) has a wealth of resources for people who struggle with eating disorders. Beyond the information on their website, the NEDA runs an Information and Referral Helpline through which you can connect with staff members who can help you find treatment programs, support groups, and other information specific to your situation. NEDA also allows you to search for treatment services with sliding scale payment options and runs an interactive website just for teens.
Other affordable options for treatment are training institutes accredited by the American Psychoanalytic Association. These institutes allow people to receive psychotherapy from therapists in training. This treatment comes with a low price tag, sometimes only $10 to $15 per session, or is priced on a sliding scale basis. If you are a student at Columbia, contact Counseling and Psychological Services (Morningside) or Mental Health Services (CUMC) to make an appointment with a therapist.
As far as the issue of weight gain goes, working with a professional, in addition to figuring out the underlying reasons behind your overeating, will help you become more comfortable with your body. Restrictive dieting is usually not the best approach, as it can be an unhealthy and ineffective method of losing weight. Finally, eating healthfully, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep are great first steps and will positively complement other treatments such as therapy.
Hope this is helpful,

Food aversions and nutrition
Dear Reader,
Being a picky eater is one thing, but having such strong aversions to certain foods that you gag violently is quite another. You're right to associate symptoms such as ongoing lethargy with an unbalanced diet, and it sounds as though the difficulties you experience when trying to eat certain foods may be preventing you from meeting your most essential nutritional needs, including calories for energy. Good news — studies show that treatment for individuals who experience similar aversions to a wide variety of foods is highly effective, so keep at it!
Parents and babysitters will attest to the fact that picky eating is very common among children and adolescents. However, highly selective eating behaviors that begin in or last through adulthood are much less prevalent. Fortunately, treatment works; in a study with individuals whose diets were composed of six foods or less, phasing new foods into the diet with an emphasis on trying new foods, not eating large quantities of them, was effective. All study participants who accepted treatment were able to incrementally diversify their diet.
One of the principal consequences of eating an unbalanced diet low in nutrients is becoming underweight. Being underweight may cause a variety of short- and long-term health consequences, including fatigue (as you mention), weakened immune system, fragile bones and osteoporosis, anemia, and for women, interrupted periods and fertility issues. One of the best ways to prevent becoming underweight is to maintain a healthy diet. For a thorough summary of what a balanced diet looks like, check out the Get Balanced Guide to Healthier Eating. Looking over the Guide will help you set goals and give you ideas about new foods you may be willing to try, such as delicious and nutritious fruits and vegetables. While maximized for students at Columbia, the key ideas in the guide can work for anyone and there are additional resources listed.
Seems like your current diet is high in carbohydrates, which may give you a short blast of energy but fade away rather quickly. Have you considered trying other foods of various textures that can help sustain your energy, such as fruit smoothies, nuts, yogurt, and berries? Alternatively, consider recombining ingredients in your existing diet — for example, you might try putting some cheese with tomato sauce on your pasta (almost the same as pizza). Experimentation within the range of your "safe foods" list may help you become more open to trying new foods. Once you're ready to try new foods, take small tastes and evaluate what you like and don't like about the food. You won't necessarily like every new food you try, and that's okay — it's all about being open to experimentation.
In addition to simply disliking the texture of certain foods, there may be emotional factors that are preventing you from eating a well-balanced diet. In fact, clinical trials show that gagging, vomiting, and retching when exposed to a new food is often stress-related. Meditating, using breathing exercises, and experimenting with other relaxation techniques is highly effective. Seeking treatment from a professional may also be helpful. Columbia students are encouraged to contact Counseling and Psychological Services (Morningside Campus) or Mental Health Services (CUMC Campus) for support.
By slowly incorporating different foods into your diet, you will be on the right path to achieving a healthy weight. For additional input, consider reaching out to a dietician. Columbia students may schedule an appointment with a nutritionist through Medical Services (Morningside) or Student Health (CUMC) and should also check out Alice! Health Promotion Nutrition Initiatives. If you are not a student at Columbia, check with your campus health service or primary care provider for a referral.
The long term health benefits of working to overcome food aversions are well worth it; those who undergo treatment often report enjoying eating more, being less anxious about social situations involving eating, and increased self-confidence both at and beyond the table. Bon appétit!
Getting your fill of chlorophyll
Dear Reader,
Now that your coworker has planted the idea of chlorophyll's health benefits in your mind, it's time to dig up some facts. Chlorophyll has been used as a supplement since the 1960s, although chlorophyllin, a solution of sodium copper salts made from chlorophyll, is more commonly and inexpensively available (this is likely what your coworker's "chlorophyll water" contained). Although it does have some approved uses and suspected health benefits, no long-term or large-scale studies with humans have been done to conclusively prove its supposed health-boosting properties. Furthermore, while most supplements are made with chlorophyllin, studies suggest that chlorophyll — naturally available in vegetables such as spinach, parsley, and garden cress — may be a more potent health agent.
Chlorophyllin-containing papain/urea ointments and sprays are sometimes prescribed to treat inflammation, speed healing, and reduce odor in wounds. Patients with colostomies and ileostomies can also take over-the-counter supplements containing chlorophyllin to reduce fecal odor, although some studies dispute the efficiency in this. While these are the only two approved uses for chlorophyllin, other potential positive health effects may include:
- Reducing damage from carcinogens. Chlorophyll has been shown to bind to carcinogens, such as those in tobacco smoke and cooked meats, thus reducing their ability to enter the bloodstream and reach tissues.
- Protecting against liver cancer. A study in China showed that a biomarker for aflatoxin, a carcinogen found in improperly stored grains which causes liver cancer, was present at lower levels in participants who simultaneously consumed the toxin and chlorophyll. Because the development of cancer takes many years, however, the long-term effectiveness of chlorophyll is unclear.
- Treating trimethylaminuria (or fishy body odor). Chlorophyll reduces the amount of trimethylamines, and the associated fishy odor, excreted by people with this hereditary condition.
- Combating colon cancer. Chlorophyllin has been shown to inhibit DNA synthesis and repair processes in colon cancer cells, giving it potential for use in cancer therapy.
- Antioxidant properties.
It's important to note that chlorophyllin also has potential side effects. Taken by mouth, it can cause urine or feces to appear greenish, black or yellow discoloration of the tongue, or occasional diarrhea. Used as an ointment or spray, it can cause a slight burning or itching sensation. Despite these mild side effects, no major toxicity in chlorophyll or chlorophyllin has been discovered in more than 50 years of popular use. Because of the lack of substantial research into chlorophyllins, however, those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may want to avoid this supplement or check in with a health provider before using it.
In summary, while the grass may be greener on the chlorophyll-watered side, science has yet to demonstrate its health benefits outside of a few very specific uses.
Hope this helps!
I don't get hungry. When should I eat?
Dear Reader,
Although you describe your appetite as being low, the fact that you love food makes your problem much easier to manage. It sounds like you're losing track of your eating schedule now that you're on your own, but there are lots of ways to work around this, especially because you like to cook and eat! Establishing healthy habits takes time and effort, but practice makes perfect, and soon enough you'll get into the swing of a healthy routine. Planning your meals in advance, incorporating food into your daily activities, and sticking to a schedule will all help you get there.
A widely accepted general rule is to not eat if you're not hungry. However, not eating all day isn't a particularly healthy pattern— consuming too little food throughout the course of the day may result in shakiness, tiredness, and general mental cloudiness as well as nutritional deficiencies and immune system weakness. The first step: Incorporating a healthy breakfast into your morning routine can help get your metabolism going early in the day, which can help boost appetite later on, helping you remember to eat. Although you may not feel hungry first thing in the morning, consider energizing your body with complex carbohydrates — try whole-grain cereals with milk, whole-wheat toast with peanut butter, or yogurt with nuts and fruit. For more information on other specific meal and snack options, check out the Get Balanced Guide for Healthier Eating.
Once you've had your breakfast, you have a solid nutritional base to build off of for the rest of the day. Try sticking to a schedule by eating at approximately the same times every day, whether you choose to eat three large or six small meals per day. Spread your meals apart, and set alarms if needed. When mealtime arrives, make sure to focus on your food, and avoid eating on the go or while watching a movie. Mindfulness will help you get into a routine.
In addition to eating at regular times, try keeping a food journal to analyze your habits. Write down what and when you eat, and after a few days, check your journal for patterns. You might find, for example, that you tend to reach for sweet snacks around 3:00 p.m. for an afternoon pick-me-up. Adjust your food choices and eating schedule according to your observations.
More ideas: Choose a library or workspace that has vending machines with healthy options so you're reminded to eat, or make a commitment to have lunch with a colleague, classmate, or friend, which will help to incorporate healthy eating into your professional, academic, and social engagements. Always make sure to have healthy snacks on hand so you aren't forced to make poor nutritional choices under pressure. Nutritious and yummy snack options include string cheese and dried fruit, almonds and low-fat cottage cheese or yogurt, or multigrain crackers with sliced turkey, hummus, or a hard-boiled egg. Prepare your healthy snacks and meals at night so you don't forget to bring food along with you in the morning.
More generally, have you ever investigated the possible reasons for your lifelong low appetite? Lack or loss of appetite is sometimes indicative of various medical and psychological conditions, so it would be helpful to make an appointment with your healthcare provider to discuss your concerns. Individuals experiencing sudden loss of appetite should meet with a healthcare provider as soon as possible. Columbia students can use Open Communicator or call 212-854-7426 to make an appointment with a healthcare provider on the Morningside Campus or dial 212-305-3400 to book over the phone with Student Health on the Medical Center Campus. Columbia community members are also encouraged to take a look at the Alice! Health Promotion Nutrition Initiatives.
Most importantly, be patient with yourself. Don't try to make too many changes at once; slowly incorporating these ideas into your day will help you get on track without getting burned out or frustrated. If you slip up every now and then, don't beat yourself up. Instead, ask yourself what caused you to forget to under- or overeat, and consider ways to adapt and prevent this from happening again. Bon appétit!
Am I too nuts for nuts?
Dear Reader,
A few things to consider: First, do the nuts and nut butters you're eating have added salt or sugars? If so, you may want to look at your overall sodium and sugar intake. You can have "too much of a good thing" when it comes to salt and sugar. Second, how's the rest of your diet? Are you eating lots of vegetables (don't forget your greens)? What about whole grains and fruits? While the calories in nuts can meet your body's energy needs and provide protein, fiber, and some vitamins, there are additional nutrients, vitamins, carbohydrates, and sugars that can only be found in vegetables, fruits, starches, and other protein sources. So, dear reader, depending on your answers to the questions above, the amount of nuts you consume may or may not help you achieve a balanced diet. If you're not sure what a balanced diet looks like, head on over to ChooseMyPlate.gov for more information.
Nuts provide a lot of nutritional benefits, not to mention convenience in the form of a quick and tasty snack. As you might already know, nuts are mostly made up of vegetable protein and unsaturated fat, as well as dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Studies have shown that eating nuts lowers the risks of coronary disease and cardiac death, and reduces serum cholesterol levels and risk of type-2 diabetes in women.
Some may worry that too many nuts will contribute to weight gain, but that doesn't sound like an issue for you. Weight gain is a result of calories in versus calories out. While nuts are a calorie-dense food, if the remainder of your diet is mostly low-calorie fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and some lean protein source, you probably aren't eating more calories than you burn. The amount of calories you need is dependent on a number of factors, physical activity levels included. Eating nuts is even potentially protective against weight gain, as nuts can increase feelings of fullness and replace calories that would be consumed in other foods, leading to smaller and less frequent meals. Further, the number on the scale doesn't necessarily indicate the health of a person. If you feel good, are living an active lifestyle, and consuming a balanced diet, your nutty obsession should be just fine.
If you are a Columbia student, there are lots of ways to find out more about achieving a balanced diet. Check out Columbia's Get Balanced Guide for Healthier Eating which features information especially for CU students. You can also make an appointment with a Registered Dietician on both the Morningside or CUMC campuses.
Enjoy and happy snacking!
GMOs — okay for consumption?
Dear Reader,
GMOs are controversial — and so, as you might have guessed, the pros and cons are continuously being debated. GMOs, or genetically modified organisms, are organisms in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally. GM foods are developed — and marketed — because there is some perceived advantage to either producers or consumers. Companies that produce GM foods believe that genetic modification can result in increased production of foods as well as crops that have higher nutritional value.
On the other hand, there are several arguments that GMOs are dangerous, both to humans and the environment. The main concerns about GMOs in relation to human health are the potential to cause allergic reactions, gene transfer to human bacteria and toxicity. No dedicated human experiments with GMOs have been conducted, but animal studies with different genetically modified crops have yielded worrisome results, including demonstrating that GMO consumption is linked with infertility, immune issues, insulin regulation problems and changes in vital organs including the liver, kidneys and gastrointestinal system.
There are also environmental concerns related to GM crops, including their potential effects on ecological systems and their stability in the environment. There is a risk that engineered genes could be introduced into wild populations, harming beneficial species and reducing biodiversity. As of now there has been no evidence that GMOs are a threat to human health, and over two billion acres of genetically modified crops have been cultivated. All GM foods currently available on the international market have undergone risk assessments to determine any impact they may have on human health or the environment.
GMOs remain a controversial issue and many large health organizations have yet to present a perspective on them. Ultimately, each GMO is different and needs to be individually studied and assessed. Keep your eyes and ears open as more information about GMOs becomes available.
What to do about salty sweat stains?
Dear Salty,
It's no wonder you're a little salty — committing yourself to working out most days of the week takes hard work and planning. Spending extra time washing workout clothes is the last thing you want to do. Here's the thing: Nearly everyone sweats, and all sweat is salty. In fact, salty sweat stains are normal, even common. However, the volume and salt concentration will vary from person to person depending on genetics, metabolism, body weight, and environment. For instance, some people sweat so profusely that a crust of salt forms on their skin and clothing during workouts, while others perspire lightly and don't show any evidence of salt on the skin after a strenuous workout. Luckily for you, there are lots of ways to deal with this issue. Keep reading!
Since you don't mention any health concerns or troubling symptoms, instead of altering your diet or water consumption to solve this problem, you may want to first try these other tactics:
- Wear an undershirt to absorb sweat before it reaches the fabric of your outer black shirt.
- Bring lots of black shirts to the gym and leave them in a locker. Keep dirty and clean shirts separate, and once you've run out of clean ones, take all of them home to wash in one go.
- Try buying some new workout clothes designed to wick sweat away from the body and dry quickly. Spot clean the stains away after each workout with cold water, and wash the entire shirt thoroughly every two to three uses.
- Use an antiperspirant, which will help prevent sweat from happening in the first place. Less sweat means less salt to form stains on your clothes. Be careful when applying — antiperspirants can cause stains too.
- Choose a gym that doesn't require black shirts. Shirts of other colors may hide the evidence of salty sweat rings better than black ones.
- For a less expensive option, exercise at home or in the great outdoors.
- For a sweat-free but challenging cardio workout, try swimming. The cool water will prevent sweat from sticking to your skin or clothes.
- Don't exercise in the heat unless you're acclimatized to such conditions. The amount of salt in sweat averages at approximately 500 milligrams per pound of sweat, but if you aren't accustomed to working out in hot weather, you can lose up to 1,100 mg of sodium per pound of sweat.
You mentioned trying to decrease the amount of salt in your sweat. This would presumably be done by decreasing the sodium in your diet. While most Americans could benefit from doing this, you may currently be getting just the right amount for your body and it's not clear whether decreasing salt would make the salt rings go away. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that adults consume no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium per day. There are exceptions for individuals of certain demographics — for example, individuals with diabetes and those who are over 51 years of age should consume no more than 1,500 mg of sodium per day. If you are within range, you might want to talk to your health care provider before making alterations to your diet. Check out the intake. In terms of water consumption, check out Not drinking enough fluids? from the Go Ask Alice! archives.
Columbia students have access to the Dodge Fitness Center and the Uris swimming pool, and are encouraged to participate in CU Move, Columbia's initiative to promote physical activity and healthy living. Additionally, Columbians can meet with a doctor at Medical Services on the Morningside Campus or Student Health at the Medical Center Campus for personalized advice regarding sweat, exercise, and salt intake. For more general information about exercise and fitness, check out the Fitness section of the Go Ask Alice! archives. For tips and tricks related to salt intake and other aspects of a nutritious diet, take a peek at the Get Balanced Guide for Healthier Eating.
Again, nice job maintaining a workout routine — keep it up!
Tongkat Ali — safe aphrodisiac for men?
Dear Reader,
While many people have probably not heard of it, Tongkat Ali has historically been used to treat health problems ranging from fevers to intestinal worms. This herbal extract is most popularly known (no wonder!) as an aphrodisiac for men. Although it comes from a plant in the Southeast Asian rainforests, it is now widely available either as a pill or an instant coffee additive. This herbal supplement, also known as Eurycoma Longifolia (EL), has not shown any severe health consequences in experiments conducted with rats. However, as a non-FDA approved substance which has not yet been tested extensively in humans, caution and careful consideration should be given along with consulting with a healthcare provider.
In one study, rats given various doses of Tongkat Ali were found to have increased sexual activity and greater sperm quality. Bigger effects were seen at higher doses, and doses ranged from 30 to 150 milligrams of drug per one kilogram of body weight (mg/kg). In another experiment with rats, administering doses of 1200 to 2400 mg/kg caused some liver damage in a few test subjects but did not otherwise harm them. While there are not studies of long-term use in animals or humans (including studies in women), researchers suggested further investigation of the impacts on the liver as well as research into sustained use.
If you are considering or taking Tongkat Ali pills, the largest dose usually recommended for humans is 400 milligrams per day, which is far below the toxic dose observed in the rat study. If you prefer Tongkat Ali-based coffee mix (TACM), a small trial with 20 human subjects showed that drinking 21 grams of TACM daily for four weeks improved participants' ability to orgasm and sexual satisfaction, but had no significant impact on their body mass index (BMI), waistline, erectile function, or blood pressure. It is important to note, however, that the study subjects were overall healthy individuals. As always, if you have any health problems or are taking other medication, it's best to talk to your health provider before starting any supplement, including Tongkat Ali. Columbia students can make appointments by contacting Medical Services (Morningside) or Student Health (Medical Center).
Wishing you safe and pleasurable experiences!
What can I do with egg yolks?
Dear Reader,
What an egg-cellent question! Not only can egg yolks be used for recipes and DIY-beauty products, but also eggs are a healthy component of a balanced diet, as both the yolks and whites are rich sources of nutrients. Egg whites contain 4 grams of protein, only 17 calories, and almost no fat. While egg yolks actually contain more than 90 percent of the calcium, iron, zinc, folate, and Vitamins B6, B12, A, E, D, and K found in eggs, you're correct that they can also be an unhealthy source of cholesterol.
In fact, the American Heart Association recommends that Americans eat less than 300 milligrams (mg) of cholesterol per day, but just one egg yolk has about 185 mg of cholesterol. One recent study even suggests that for people already at risk for heat disease, eating three or more egg yolks per week could be as damaging to arteries as smoking. Other research finds that eating eggs in moderation does not negatively affect cholesterol levels in healthy individuals. Check out the Alice! Health Promotion Nutrition Initiatives for more information about integrating eggs into a healthy diet.
If you do find yourself with extra yolks, you can use them to make custard, crème brûlée, aioli, Hollandaise Sauce, and more. For recipes, just do a quick Internet search for "egg yolk recipes." Yolks can be saved for later by refrigerating them for three to four days or, for longer-term storage, freezing them in ice cube trays mixed with a pinch of salt or sugar. And for those who should avoid eating egg yolks altogether, there's a sunny side — you can use egg yolks to create DIY hair treatments. Some people swear by egg yolks as treatments for split ends, dull or dry locks, and for strengthening weak strands. Again, a quick Internet search for "egg yolk hair treatments" will provide more than enough recipes to get you started.
Hope this was egg-ducational,

Adding a field to the member complexTableField
7 July 2009 at 12:01am
I have managed to add an extra field to the member table through a dataobjectdecorator and I have also managed to get it into the member form that you get when you press edit on the complexTableField on the member table.
However I can't find where the fields for the complexTableField are made/added. I would really like to get my dropdown list on the complexTableField since right now you first have to add a member and then edit which is very clumsy/unintuitive.
I must also say that the documentation around modifying the member table is very lacking. A simple tutorial for decorating the member, adding a field to the member form and getting it on the complexTableField would go a long way to helping alot of people when it comes to member modification I think.
Kindly, Marcus.

Hello Smurkas,
I think you managed your new attribute by adding it to the field_names and field_types array which are referenced in the ComplexTableField.
$tableField = new ComplexTableField($this, 'Training', 'Training', Training::$field_names, $popupFieldsTraining);
class Training ...
static $field_types = array(
'Title' => 'ReadonlyField',
'Category' => 'DropdownField(\'CategoryID\', \'CategoryID\', DataObject::get(\'Category\')->toDropDownMap(\'ID\', \'Title\'))'
static $field_names = array(
'Title' => 'Training description',
'Category' => 'Category Description'
As you can see in the example, I added a DropDown-list in the ComplexTableField successfully.
Best regards,

I actually figured this out but forgot to report back.
There is a function called addMembershipFields on the MemberTableField class. You can calll it like I do below.
You are however severely limited in what kind of fields you can add since addMembershipFields only takes the fieldname and the title, not what kind of field you want. Because of this you'll always get text fields.
You can put the code in the _config.php file.
"Address" => _t('RTVMemberTableField.ADDRESS', 'Adress'),
"Boras" => _t('RTVMemberTableField.BORAS', 'Borås'),
"Uddevalla" => _t('RTVMemberTableField.UDDEVALLA', 'Uddevalla')
Hope this helps!

When it comes to caring for your outdoor home environment, regular tree and shrub care is just as important as lawn care. As beautiful as it may be, the typical neighborhood environment cannot provide the same benefits to trees and shrubs as a natural forest. Nutrients, for example, are not as readily available in your yard as they are from the forest floor. You can protect your landscape at a price you can afford with Spring-Green's new tree and shrub care program:
A healthy landscape is an investment that adds value to your property. Replacing that investment can be expensive. You can nourish and protect your ornamental trees and shrubs for a fraction of their replacement cost with a tree and shrub care program, or individual tree and shrub service, from Spring-Green.

POST, TX (KCBD) - Memorial services for a man who was killed in a helicopter crash have been scheduled. The service will be at 2 p.m. Saturday at the First United Methodist Church in Post for 66 year old Paul Beach.
The helicopter went down around 3:30 p.m. Sunday about 13 miles east of Post on Beach Ranch, just off of highway 380.

Do you have a smart phone? A laptop? Then you play a role in the violence that occurs in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Cell phones, laptops and other electronics don't work very well without the mineral, coltan. In the Democratic Republic of Congo, poor farmers are gathered by armed gangs and enslaved to dig coltan out of the ground.

SALISBURY, Md. - WMDT is now learning more information about Wicomico County's pharmacy benefits plan.
According to CareFirst senior director of external and internal communications Michael Sullivan, the county has its health coverage with CareFirst, which switched its pharmacy benefit manager to CVS-Caremark.
"What is important to know, is that CVS Caremark – in this role – processes pharmacy claims and manages associated matters," Sullivan said in an email.
Wicomico County public information officer Tamara Lee-Brooks says this applies not just to county employees, but all Maryland employers who use CareFirst.
Because of the change, there was some concern about where employees can get their prescriptions. Sullivan and Lee-Brooks both confirm that employees will still be able to get their prescriptions at a number of pharmacies, including CVS and other local ones, but the only limit will be on mail orders, which are done through CVS.
Lee-Brooks says only one percent of the more than 600 employees use mail-order pharmacies.

Alimony Decision Shows How Layoff Affected BigLaw Partner
Posted Mar 30, 2012 8:34 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
An Illinois divorce decision showcases the economic problems that can plague BigLaw partners ousted from their jobs during the recession.
The case involves David McLauchlan, who sought to modify an order that he pay his wife of more than 30 years $14,000 a month in monthly alimony after their divorce, the Am Law Daily reports. McLauchlan worked for 34 years at Lord Bissell & Brook, serving as an executive committee member and earning as much as $500,000 a year.
But in 2006, six years after his divorce became final, his earnings fell. His income continued on a downward trajectory as Lord Bissell merged with Locke Liddell & Sapp, falling to about $165,000 in 2008. McLauchlan was asked to leave. He launched a solo practice, even as he and his new wife were making payments on a $924,000 mortgage on a Chicago townhouse that now has an estimated value of $691,000.
By 2010, McLauchlan had tapped $806,000 of his retirement funds and estimated his remaining assets would be gone in four months, the Am Law Daily says.
In the Illinois appellate opinion (PDF) issued earlier this month, the court upheld a trial judge's decision to reduce McLauchlan's alimony payments to 20 percent of his income, retroactive to 2008. McLauchlan had sought to terminate the payments entirely. The appeals court agreed with Mclauchlan, however, that the trial judge had wrongly included his retirement withdrawals as income in calculating maintenance.
McLauchlan's lawyer, Howard London of Beermann Swerdlove, summarizes McLauchlan's problems in an Am Law Daily interview. "This case," he says, "is a perfect illustration of what happens when divorce meets recession meets downsizing."

Tobin's getting her ducks in a row
You remember at the carnival shooting gallery where the little ducks went back and forth and you fired away at them?
Well, JU goal keeper Karli Tobin can relate because when she came to the team she was in that shooting gallery playing the role of … the ducks.
"It was interesting, to say the least, because coming from my high school (Moorestown HS), we were the best team in New Jersey so on average I saw about five shots a game,'' Tobin said. "When I got here and we were the underdog and everybody was piling shots on us it was verrry different.''
How different?
After seeing five or so shots a game in high school, the University of Maryland-Baltimore County welcomed Tobin to Division I on Feb. 6, 2010, by firing 40 shots at the overwhelmed freshman. Tobin made 15 saves, but 18 got through as the Dolphins fell, 18-2.
That was the start of a long learning process for Tobin. Not only was she learning advanced Xs and Os on the field, she was learning how to deal with being on the receiving end of a barrage of shots .
"She has really improved and keeps getting more focused,'' coach Mindy McCord said. "She's key to our transition game and when she is playing at a high level it takes pressure off the rest of the defense.''
Over time, she has developed the knack to block out everything but the ball so well that her career record is 30-18 and that includes that 5-9 first-year mark.
"I just focus on the ball and everything else happens with it,'' she said. "If I'm zoom focused on the ball it's like a beach ball, it gets that big. When you're zoom focused on the ball as a goalie, that's all you're tracking it's your whole vision.''
Not every thing works every time, however.
"Some days you can't save a beach ball though,'' she said with a laugh. "Some days your mind's not there and you can't save the beach ball, it's more like a marble coming at you.''
On those occasions the beach ball is acting like a marble, Tobin said she has learned not to accept it but not to go overboard.
"Goalie is 80 percent mental 20 percent physical,'' she said. "You see some goalies, when they get scored on, slam the stick. I would get upset but I was not a stick slammer or anything. ''
What she would do is get down on herself.
"It's not that I accept it but it's (keeping an even keel) something I've been working on to overcome,'' she said. "I still get upset with myself because I want to be at my best every game.''
Much of the help has come from a variety of coaches including current goalie coach Adam Norton.
"He has helped me understand that when a person is in the kill zone right in front of the cage,'' she said, "a lot of people can score from there and you have to accept that but still strive to get the shot.''
And the next shot, and the next, and the next.
"It's always about the next one. Even if you make a save it's about the next one.''
Now that she has laser-honed her focus, Tobin finds that at the end of every game three things happen: she releases the focus; she is exhausted and every game ends the same.
She can't predict how she'll release the pressure. Sometimes she breaks down in tears, sometimes she is euphoric. After the release, exhaustion.
"I am completely exhausted,'' the education major/business minor said. "People think that goalie is not tiring and I get that. I go on pregame runs to help relax but the amount of stress mentally in a game is high.''
And, after exhaustion sets in comes the headache.
"Normally after a game I have a terrible headache because I'm so focused during the game,'' she said. "I sleep very well after a game.''
She also reaches for her new best-post-game friend.
"Motrin,'' she said. "I have a full stash of it.''

Albany- In a battle of preservation versus progress in downtown Albany, it looks as if progress will win.
The Albany-Dougherty Inner City Authority owns the old mule barn on Broad Avenue.
Tuesday night they agreed to recommend to the historic preservation committee that it be demolished. They say it would cost too much to renovate or rebuild as part of downtown redevelopment.
"I think all of us realize we have too few historic buildings in downtown Albany and in Albany generally speaking," said Thomas C. Chatmon, president of Albany Tomorrow Incorporated. "And that's why this was such a difficult decision."
A local developer has inquired about saving the facade of the building and reassembling it at another location. Chatmon says that could work if the developer paid the cost.

MONDAY, Sept. 16 (HealthDay News) -- More than 2 million people come down with infections from antibiotic-resistant bacteria every year in the United States, leading to at least 23,000 deaths, according to a report released Monday by federal health officials.
The report marks the first time that the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has performed a comprehensive analysis of the impact on society from antibiotic-resistant bacteria, said Dr. Steve Solomon, director of the agency's Office of Antimicrobial Resistance.
"This is scary stuff, and we want people to know about it," he said.
The report outlines how antibiotic resistance occurs in patients and spreads through the community. It also lists medical procedures that have become more dangerous because of these bacteria. Those procedures include dialysis, chemotherapy, complex surgery and organ transplants.
Antibiotic overuse is the single most important factor leading to antibiotic resistance, according to the report. Antibiotics are among the most commonly prescribed drugs, but as many as half of those prescriptions are either not needed or not the best course of treatment for the patient, the report said.
"Patients need to understand that antibiotics are not the solution for every illness," Solomon said. "It's important that people not take antibiotics when they aren't necessary. It contributes to resistance, and it also has consequences to the patient in the form of side effects."
The CDC also faulted the use of antibiotics in food animals to prevent, control and treat disease, and to promote their growth. "The use of antibiotics for promoting growth is not necessary, and the practice should be phased out," the report stated.
The centerpiece of the CDC report is a threat-level assessment for 18 bacteria- and antibiotic-related illnesses, broken down into three categories: urgent, serious and concerning.
Three antibiotic-related illnesses are ranked as urgent threats demanding immediate attention:
Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, or CRE, are a family of bacteria that have developed remarkable drug resistance in recent years. Half the people who get bloodstream infections from CRE die. About 9,300 hospital infections of CRE occur each year. "A lot of those bacteria are becoming resistant to every antibiotic we have," Solomon said of CRE. "We are very concerned about significant spread over the next few years."
Neisseria gonorrhoeae -- the bacteria that causes gonorrhea -- are showing signs of resistance to the cephalosporin family of antibiotics. The CDC estimated that about one-third of the 820,000 annual gonorrhea infections involve strains that have become antibiotic-resistant. "The cephalosporins are really the last line of defense we have against gonorrhea," Solomon said. "It has shown its ability to become resistant to every antibiotic we throw at it. If we lost those -- if this cephalosporin-resistant gonorrhea spreads -- that disease is going to be untreatable."
Clostridium difficile is bacteria that, although not antibiotic resistant, poses an urgent threat because it causes diarrhea linked to at least 250,000 hospitalizations and 14,000 American deaths each year. C. difficile infections occur because of antibiotic use that destroys the good bacteria in people's bodies that protect against illness. "Because there has not been as much success in addressing the problem of antibiotic overuse, we are flagging that as an urgent problem because it has to be brought under control," Solomon said.
Twelve infections from antibiotic-resistant bacteria are listed as serious, and three as concerning. For each bacteria threat, the CDC offers guidance for what healthcare industry officials, medical professionals and the general public can do to limit its spread.
Infections by antibiotic-resistant bacteria add as much as $20 billion in excess direct health-care costs, with additional costs for lost productivity as high as $35 billion a year, according to the report.
In its report, the CDC outlined a four-pronged strategy for combating antibiotic-resistant bacteria:
Preventing infections and preventing the spread of resistance.
Tracking resistant bacteria.
Improving the use of existing antibiotics.
Promoting the development of new antibiotics and new diagnostic
tests for resistant bacteria.
"As different as these problems are, the same strategies to address them are shared in common," Solomon said. "By helping people understand that those four core strategies are shared among the ways we address all of these antibiotic-resistant bacteria, we put it all in context and provide a glimpse of the big picture."
Dr. Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association, said he appreciates the report's frank, down-to-earth manner.
"[The report] gives us a handle. Something we can use to talk with the public," he said. "Obviously, there is an enormous risk to the health of the public by antibiotic resistance, and it's going to take a multiple-sector response to resolving it."

Petraeus Takes Over Afghan Fight, Vows to Win

Applause broke out in a Rockville courtroom when Judge Stanley T. Fuger Jr. gave his order.
Shortly after the 10 a.m. hearing began, Fuger asked Prosecutor Michael O'Hare if he had filed any motions objecting to the men's release. O'Hare said he had not. Fuger then asked Taylor and Gould's attorneys if they knew of any reason why he shouldn't order their release. They said they did not.
About 10:45, the men were released from the lockup area in court. They greeted family members with hugs.
"I'm all right," Gould said as he was reunited with his family. "I'm trying to absorb it," he said. He had no specific plans for tonight, he said. Taylor said "I'm excited. It's a great day today."
"You can never have enough hugs," one family member said.
Taylor's friend Trent Butler walked off the elevator in the courthouse, looking for Taylor. "Where's Ron at?" he asked. When he met his friend in a conference room, they broke out in yelps of joy.
The two men were preparing to walk out of court around 11 a.m. They were being fitted with GPS bracelets as a condition of their release.
Two weeks ago, Fuger ordered their immediate release from prison, but prosecutors complained to the Appellate Court that Fuger's order violated court rules. The court agreed and ordered the matter back to Fuger.
A week ago, Fuger again ordered Taylor and Gould released, but this time delayed their release to give prosecutors a chance to appeal, as required by court rules. Prosecutor O'Hare said this week that he would not object to the release of the men on bail, although he said he would continue to press an appeal of Fuger's reversal of the men's convictions.
Taylor, 51, and Gould, 48, were convicted in 1995 of the killing of Eugenio Deleon Vega, a New Haven shopkeeper killed in 1993.
Fuger's decision to overturn the convictions followed a hearing at which lawyers for both men argued that they were improperly incarcerated. They presented evidence from a key state witness, Doreen Stiles, who testified at the original trial that she saw the two men walk into the store around the time of Vega's killing. She subsequently changed her story and said police had coerced her into implicating the men. The New Haven detectives who investigated the crime have since retired.
O'Hare said prosecutors believe Stiles told the truth the first time.
Taylor, who has cancer and may not have long to live, recently went through three days of chemotherapy at the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington, said his lawyer, Peter Tsimbidaros.
"The families expect and hope that Ron and George will be walking out of court as free men," Tsimbidaros said Wednesday. "When I see Mr. Taylor walk out that door it will be ... one of my happiest moments."
In an interview with the Associated Press at MacDougall-Walker Correctional Institution in Suffield on Wednesday, Gould said he isn't sure what to expect when he is released.
"It still hasn't hit me yet until I can take a deep breath of air, walk a direction I want to walk in," Gould said.
As for the woman who testified against him, then recanted, Gould said, "I hold nothing against her." He said he does "feel a little bit bitter when I think about my kids." Gould has four children ages 16 to 27.

Murderous RomancePosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
I've worked on, to one degree or another, five compositions this summer. In no particular order:
- Sanctuary for 2 violins, viola, cello, bass, piano and horn
- The Gemini for cello, bass and orchestra
- Seven Stories, for soprano and eight instruments
- Fantasy for string quartet
- Orchestration of Poke
Watching a new piece take on a life of its own is a wondrous and terrifying experience. At a certain point I always find myself face-to-face with one of these strange creatures, wondering just what the hell it is and where it came from.
Armenian artist Karen Sargsyan has captured this odd mix of feeling in his work Murderous Romance, a sculpture made entirely of paper that I had the pleasure of encountering a few weeks ago at SECCA, the Southeastern Center for Contemporary Art. In this work, which the artist describes as a self-portrait, a small (maybe 3-feet high) man is pursued by a towering, conglomerative monster — part Frankenstein, part Dorian Grey — of his own making. The work manages to be both frightening and terrifically funny. A photo could hardly capture all the witty detail, but I couldn't help wishing I could snap one to post on this blog. The picture below will have to suffice to convey some of the precision and character of his art – this piece is called Human Behavior.

The Landmark Legal Foundation, a conservative legal group ran by radio host Mark Levin, called Tuesday for investigations into 29 Wisconsin judges who signed petitions to recall Republican Gov. Scott Walker.
"The public endorsement of Governor Walker's recall warrants a full and immediate investigation into each of the 29 circuit court judges who reportedly signed the petition," the complaint (PDF) to the Wisconsin Judicial Commission states.
Gannett Wisconsin Media reported on Saturday that the 29 judges — 12 percent of the state's approximately 250 judges — had signed the recall petitions against Walker.
The Wisconsin Code of Judicial Conduct states that judges cannot "participate in the affairs, caucuses, promotions, platforms, endorsements, conventions, or activities of a political party or of a candidate for partisan office." However, it makes no explicit reference to recall petitions.
But according to Landmark's complaint, signing the recall petition was tantamount to endorsing Walker's opponents.
"The endorsement of sitting elected official's removal by recall election is no different than the endorsement of a candidate for office. At a minimum, however, signing the recall petition gives the appearance of a political endorsement, which violates SCR 60.02 [requiring judges to preserve the independence of the judiciary]."
"The Commission should send a strong message to the Wisconsin judiciary that violating the Code of Judicial Conduct in this manner will not be tolerated," the complaint concludes. "Landmark respectfully requests that the full range of sanctions be considered for these egregious ethical violations including as appropriate reprimand, censure, suspension, and removal."
When questioned by Gannett Wisconsin Media, Milwaukee County Judge Charles F. Kahn Jr said he signed the petition because he believed the people of Wisconsin should be allowed to vote again.
"I did not support any candidate and I did not support any political party," he explained. "This is a substantial and important distinction. I know that under the rules of judicial conduct — which I take very seriously and follow totally and without question — under these rules I'm not allowed to support a particular candidate."

Eau Claire (WQOW)- On Tuesday night, WQOW is tackling some very serious subjects in its series Crosstown Trek.
Photojournalist Steve Betchkal and reporter Mike Joyce are backpacking across Eau Claire to examine how the quality of life has changed over the years. On Tuesday, they will look at a series of topics including education, safety, diversity, and healthcare.
"If you had a situation like we had, you are just kind of over a barrel," notes Joe Thielen of Eau Claire. "For the last 10 years, our wages have basically been stagnant but healthcare costs keep rising."
"Somebody asked me why are you going into nursing and I actually said I want to have health insurance; and my instructor laughed at me," remembers Joe's wife, Sara.
Join Steve and Mike Tuesday night at 10 P.M. for Crosstown Trek.

Watford lead Leeds United 2-0 at half-time thanks to goals from Almen Abdi and Ikechi Anya
Updated 11:54pm Tuesday 8th April 2014 in Latest Sport By Tom Bodell
Almen Abdi took just nine minutes to mark his return to first team action with a goal, Ikechi Anya adding a second before the break to send Watford in 2-0 up at half-time.
Beppe Sannino made four changes to the team which drew against Burnley on Saturday, handing Albert Riera his full debut in place of Daniel Pudil, whilst on the other side, Anya moved forward to partner Troy Deeney, with Davide Faraoni taking Mathias Ranegie's place.
Reigning Player of the Year Abdi made his first start since August 31 in place of the injured Cristian Battocchio, whilst Sean Murray was preferred to Lewis McGugan.
Abdi was bright from the outset, gliding into the Leeds penalty area in the opening minutes and sitting up a cross for the unmarked Faraoni at the back post, the wing-back seeing his shot blocked.
The Swiss marked his return to action in style in the ninth minute, stooping to meet Anya's cross from the left to give Watford the perfect start.
Leeds caused Watford very few problems despite seeing plenty of the ball; Ross McCormack's audacious effort from just inside Watford's half as good as it got for Brian McDermott's side.
Watford doubled their lead in the 32nd minute, Riera's cutback falling to Murray who helped the ball out to Faraoni on the right, the Italian crossing for Anya to nod home at the far post.
Comfortable on the ball, Watford were never stretched by Leeds, who were unable to put their possession to use in a penetrative fashion.
Watford: Almunia; Angella, Cassetti, Ekstrand; Faraoni, Murray, Tozser, Abdi, Riera; Anya, Deeney.
Subs: Bond, Belkalem, Merkel, McGugan, Ranegie, Pudil, Hoban.
Leeds United: Butland, Wootton, Lees, Pearce, Warnock, Brown, Tonge, Mowatt, Poleon, McCormack, Hunt.
Subs: Cairns, Smith, Zaliukas, Pugh, White, Murphy, Stewart.
Referee: Mr G Ward

8I Guess Britney Got the Kids for the Holiday
Kevin Federline and his girlfriend, Victoria Prince, were spotted at an Ed Hardy promotional event in Brisbane, Australia. I think it's phenomenally strange that Kevin Federline is still famous anywhere, let alone all the way over in Australia. But I guess if you're an American celebrity and you're looking to be photographed this week, the place to be is anywhere outside the U.S.. Because no one in the U.S. is working this week, the photo agencies are making everybody crazy trying to push photos of foreign people you've never heard of at, like, a red carpet event in some random Italian city. (Where the hell is this Rome place? Is it near Turin?)
This is the closest thing I have to a photo of an American celebrity today. Enjoy. Here's hoping Stephanie Pratt goes a little overboard with the "tryptophan" tonight and gives us some news to report tomorrow.

6Is Everyone Pumped for Kevin Federline's New Reality TV Show?
He's a back-up dancer! He's a rapper! He's an actor! No, no, none of those worked out, so K-Fed's falling back on every famewhore's favorite fall-back plan: He's doing a reality TV show. His second reality TV show, the first of course being the perma-stoned Chaos with Britney Spears.
Kevin's currently filming the VH1 show in Vegas with his entourage — including girlfriend Victoria Prince — and thus far he's not making a lot of new friends with the locals.
Last night, he hit up Wasted Space at the Hard Rock Hotel, where he was comped two bottles of Grey Goose, proceeded to get completely wasted, and then left without leaving a tip. CLASSY! In fairness, it probably wasn't an intentional slight: Based on reports from the club, he was likely too drunk to even consider tipping. The stay-at-home-dad/party-boy lifestyle isn't doing Kevin any favors. Everyone who's seen him in Vegas seems to comment on how much weight he's put on. Better be careful, Kevin, or the next VH1 show you're gonna do is Celebrity Fit Club. (Is that mess even still on?)

Florida Georgia Line is the country singer and songwriter duo of Tyler Hubbard (from Monroe, Georgia) and Brian Kelley (from Ormand Beach, Florida). The pair broke into the scene in the spring of 2012 with the infectious summer single "Cruise," a song that blended cruising country back roads and farm towns with ragged drums and layers of rock guitar, sounding a bit like a next-generation Brooks & Dunn. Hubbard and Kelley met when both were students at Nashville's Belmont University, and they began writing songs together between classes. They were soon playing local clubs, quickly building a fan following on the Southeast club circuit, and developing a sharp contemporary country sound. They signed with Craig Wiseman's Big Loud Mountain record label and entered the studio with producer Joey Moi to track a debut EP, It'z Just What We Do. A lead single, the bouncing and roaring "Cruise," appeared just in time to hit the airways at the beginning of summer in 2012. Six more tracks, all again produced by Moi, were added to the It'z Just What We Do EP to make the duo's first full-length album, Here's to the Good Times, which was released the following fall.

At his insurance office on Peach Orchard Road, the sign read "Closed" in honor of a beloved friend, partner, and co-founder, Georgia State Representative Quincy Murphy, who died at University Hospital after a battle with cancer.
"He leaves a legacy as I said wonderful public servant, in the highest sense, and we're going to miss him very, very much," says Doctor Lowell Greenbaum, who is chairman of the Richmond County Democratic Party.
Murphy was born in Atlanta, in 1952. He served on the Richmond County Coliseum Authority before running for the General Assembly.
He was first elected to the Georgia House of Representatives in 2002, and was re-elected five times. The voters embraced his quiet competence.
"Quincy got elected because Quincy was always mild in his approach. He took it in a serious way. He was most effective that way, he got things done. He always tried to look out for Richmond County and the community," says political insider J.R. Riles, who worked on Murphy's campaigns.
Murphy represented Commissioner Alvin Mason, who says they were both friends and colleagues.
"The thing I liked about him...he went about his job quietly, with no fanfare...not seeking any media attention. He was very, very effective and very quiet...very approachable," said Mason.
"A very compassionate man, with high morality, which is not to be sneezed at in this political era that we're in," said Greenbaum.
Murphy was a successful politician, but one people respected and loved. "He was a person people loved because Quincy was always sincere. Most of the time, what he told you he was going to do, he would try to do it and try to get it accomplished," says Riles.
"We owe Quincy Murphy a debt of gratitude for the service he has given to this community, and we are at a great loss today," said Mason.
Augusta Mayor Deke Copenhaver had the following to say concerning Rep. Murphy, "Quincy Murphy was a good friend and a colleague who I will deeply miss. One of my fondest memories of Quincy was his referring to the new generation of leaders in Augusta as the Joshua Generation. He was a staunch believer in the City of Augusta and shared with me on many occasions how excited he was to see all the great things going on in the city that he loved. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Murphy family as they mourn the passing of a great man and a true public servant."
Paine College president George C. Bradley said, "Representative Murphy was a true friend and advocate for Paine College. His work and his legacy will always be remembered throughout our campus. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Murphy family."
Murphy is survived by his wife and two children. His death leaves a big portion of Augusta and Jefferson County without a state representative.
Richmnond County Board of Elections director Lynn Bailey says, under state law, it will be up to Governor Nathan Deal to call for a special election to elect a replacement.

Railroad Commissioner Charles Matthews says people need to be more aware of railroad crossings. Matthews met with Lubbock Police and a Lubbock Independent School District representative Tuesday. He says train accidents are on the rise, specifically in Lubbock.
"We're here because Lubbock has had an increase in the number of accidents. Last year, the whole year, you only had one. Already this year you already had three collisions, and this is just something we absolutely can prevent and we're trying to help do that, said Matthews.
Matthews says 3/4 of the train accidents in Texas happen when the lights are flashing and bells are ringing.
As the November election approaches, the Texas Secretary of State is asking people to get out and vote. The reason is less than half of registered voters in the US participated in the 1998 election. Here in Lubbock the numbers were similar. Only one 1/3 of the registered voters went to the polls. The deadline to register for the November 5th election is October 7th.
Several of Lubbock's African American pastors met Tuesday at Lyons Chapel Baptist Church. The group heard presentations from the Lubbock Fire Department on the importance of smoke detectors. They also heard presentations from Texas Tech on upcoming programs and events.
