Despite her successful acting career and the current fame she is enjoying with her starring role on "Desperate Housewives," Teri Hatcher, a single mother, says she can still feel "very fragile and very insecure."
She explores these feelings in "Burnt Toast: And Other Philosophies of Life," in which she speaks frankly about her life -- including her sexless honeymoon and the tabloid headlines that call her anorexic -- in hopes that other women will learn from what she has gone through and become stronger from it.
In fact, the title of her new book, "Burnt Toast," is a metaphor for women who too often take the leftovers for themselves -- something Hatcher says she is trying not to do as much, but still does.
You can visit Hatcher's website at www.myburnttoast.com.
Below is an excerpt from the book.
Toast. Think about it for a moment. It probably has the simplest recipe in the world: one ingredient, one instruction. Still, you know when you're trying to make it and you just can't get it right? It's too light or too soft, then... totally burnt. Charred in a matter of seconds -- now it's more like a brick than a piece of toast. So what do you do? Are you the kind of person who tries to scrape off the black? Or do you smother it with jam to hide the taste? Do you throw it away, or do you just eat it? If you shrug and eat the toast, is it because you're willing to settle for less? Maybe you don't want to be wasteful, but if you go ahead and eat that blackened square of bread, then what you're really saying -- to yourself and to the world -- is that the piece of bread is worth more than your own satisfaction.
Up 'til now, I ate the burnt toast. I learned that from my mother -- metaphorically if not literally. I can't actually remember if she even likes toast or how she eats it. But what I know for sure is that although she was a loving and devoted wife and mother, she always took care of everyone and everything else before herself. This habitual self-sacrifice was well intended, but ultimately it's a mixed message for a child. It taught me that in order for me to succeed, someone else had to suffer. I learned to accept whatever was in front of me without complaint because I didn't think I deserved good things.

Air ambulance called to single-vehicle collision on A142 at Stuntney
Posted: August 04, 2014|
A woman in her 50s had a lucky escape when her car collided into a ditch.
Emergency services, including the East Anglian Air Ambulance (EAAA), were called to the collision on the A142 at Stuntney - near Fenland Lodge care home - at around 9.15am on Saturday.
The woman's car had come off the road and into a ditch, and she was trapped inside.
A spokeswoman for Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "One crew from Ely and one crew from Littleport were called to a road traffic collision on the A142 Stuntney.
"A female casualty was trapped in a vehicle that had gone into a ditch and firefighters used specialist rescue equipment to release her."
An EAAA spokesman said: "Dr Peter Temesvari and critical care paramedic, Mark Milsom, assisted the fire service to free the woman.
"She was assessed on scene by the EAAA medical team and left in the care of the EEAST crew."

You will have the opportunity to see beautiful landscapes with a variety of endemic flora and fauna and stop by part of the Inca trail, Llactapata, which is an enclosure built on the mountain facing Machu Picchu.
Let's go on the Salkantay trek to Machupicchu, the most popular destination in South America! It displays a combination of unique culture, proudly preserved by the Peruvian people, mind boggling adventure, and remarkable natural beauty. Machu Picchu is set at the greatest heights of the Salkantay and Humantay Mountain, where the ice cold of the mountains meets the steamy heat of the Andean jungle. This route is bordered by the Historic National park of Machu Picchu and is considered to be one of the 25 best Treks in the World. The Salcantay Trek route is a hike highly diverse and rich in geography, culture, and Andean history. The Vilcanota mountain range contains two of the Americas' twenty highest mountains.
Is one of the richest trails to Machu Picchu in terms of natural beauty due to its unique geographical position. The elevation of this Mountain is 6,264 meters above sea level with climatic conditions ranging from sub-tropical to arctic. This route offers a range of levels for tours of which we offer treks for the more rugged traveler to the traveler who would like a more comfortable tour.
The Salkantay Trek is a popular hike for long days of trekking and the route offers an astonishing diversity of sightseeing attractions and adventure opportunities found nowhere else on earth. Just imagine a trek with a breathtaking view of the most beautiful mountains in the world or a bath at the hot springs of Cocalmayuc in the jungle, all within a distance of only 50 kilometers. This Trekking is also the best option as an alternative trek to the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu.
Many travellers heading for this route, drawn to Peru by the promise of adventure, leave equally enchanted by the friendliness and openness of the Peruvian people. From the natural rhythm you experience from walking on a trek to the rhythm of an Andean flute at one of Machu Picchu´s restaurants, Peru is an amazingly diverse country that offers something for everyone. One journey through this land is rarely enough. The first thing many people do after a visit is start planning the next trip!

There's a reason role playing is part of developmental questionnaires once kids exit toddler parallel play and start getting into true socializing. It's a true indicator of the child's ability to understand and mimic the adult world around them. And it doesn't hurt that the pretend play can turn into real helping down the line. Casdon has a reputation for innovation and has been renowned for toy innovation for over 65 years. Casdon relies on reputable domestic brand licenses like Dyson to create truly life-like experiences for children of all ages.

Rasta Imposta is the real deal when it comes to costumes and accessories for kids of all ages and their Ha Ha Hoodies are sure to get laughs from even the most embittered winter survivor. These zip-up hoodies are made to be warm and can be used as costumes or just conversation starters throughout the year.

As time passed, the company began acquiring licenses to produce goods for many companies.
In today's world, many daily interactions are quick-paced and short-lived. As electronics and screen time take over lives, occasionally kids forget the most basic, natural part of childhood: play. Germany takes us back to the basics with wonderful, traditional toys that rely on brains, not batteries. HABA has branched out from its classic wooden toys to create modern versions with heirloom quality. sigikid takes its cue from children's need for cuddling, and creates developmentally appropriate toys.

There's a new way to look at diaper bags. Up to now, no company had delved into the world of microbes (aka icky germs) or anti-stick coatings, but that's changed due to this dynamic duo of new licensed diaper bags: Ju-Ju-Be has begun a collaboration with Hello Kitty, the iconic brand everyone adores. The new Kitty collection features signature diaper bag designs in a range of shapes with –– retailers take note –– a custom print; bow zipper pulls; and super-cute, functional hidden surprises such as embroidery details inside each bag. Invite shoppers to peer inside the bag to get a look at the "hidden" three apples, a nod to Hello Kitty who herself is three apples tall and weighs five apples.
The first Hello Kitty item was a plastic coin purse based on a Japanese design created in 1974. The kitty in question was a female white bobtail cat sporting a red bow around her neck. Hello Kitty came to the United States in 1976 where she took the country by storm. Although the initial market for the design was pre-teen girls, the popularity of the icon grew and now includes adults as well. The design appears on all kinds of products ranging from school supplies to fashion accessories and even high-end products. Hello Kitty is internationally famous with a multi-category litter of licensed products sporting her face and body.

Every year on April 22, more than one billion people take part in celebrating Earth Day. Across the globe, individuals, communities, organizations, and governments acknowledge our planet and take action to protect it. Earth Day gets many thinking about their carbon footprint, and no footprint seems bigger than clothing, shoes and beauty products. Upcycled fashion goes upscale with Kallio, where vintage clothing is collected and repurposed into chic children's clothing; better beauty is a matter of herbs and essential oils at Matter Company; Bento licenses the newest in ecowear with Carta Vetrata; and Oh Baby! provides oh-so-sweet organic cotton outfits and accessories for kids of all ages.
Organization seems to top the list of things most people feel they could use improvement on. This quest leads to a search for products that will make their lives easier, more efficient and save time.

If today's business environment seems to be challenging, imagine being a young woman starting a business very shortly after gaining the right to vote in your homeland. The Roaring 20s were host to powerful men at the helms of companies, but a woman-owned business was somewhat of a rarity. This didn't deter the vision of one woman, Madame Beatrice Alexander: her desire to create beautiful, quality dolls carried the Alexander Doll Company forward into the next century as a powerhouse in fine dolls and accessories. Now celebrating its 90th year in operation, Madame Alexander has spread joy to thousands of little girls, while generously supporting various philanthropic causes.

Heading up the east coast will be sketchy once you get close to NYC, but keep an eye on the weather forecasts and you'll be fine.
Dress warmly, though. :) Heated grips are a minimum, heated gloves recommended. A heated vest is nice too if your bike doesn't have a big fairing.
This is correct, but I will add that the magic # is 6K ft! Stay below that and you should be ice free. No need to really take the interstates unless you really WANT TO or if TIME is of the essence. Personally I would try to stay away from the heavy truck traffic on I-10 and 8. If you stay S and East it is longer and uglier scenery but a lot warmer. Enjoy your trip.

A generalized state realization of the Wiberg (1996) type is called normal if symbol variables have degree 1 and state variables have degree 2. A natural graphical model of such a realization has leaf edges representing symbols, ordinary edges representing states, and vertices representing local constraints. Such a graph can be decoded by any version of the sum-product algorithm. Any state realization of a code can be put into normal form without essential change in the corresponding graph or in its decoding complexity. Group or linear codes are generated by group or linear state realizations. On a cycle-free graph, there exists a well-defined minimal canonical realization, and the sum-product algorithm is exact. However, the cut-set bound shows that graphs with cycles may have a superior performance-complexity tradeoff, although the sum-product algorithm is then inexact and iterative, and minimal realizations are not well-defined. Efficient cyclic and cycle-free realizations of Reed-Muller (RM) codes are given as examples. The dual of a normal group realization, appropriately defined, generates the dual group code. The dual realization has the same graph topology as the primal realization, replaces symbol and state variables by their character groups, and replaces primal local constraints by their duals. This fundamental result has many applications, including to dual state spaces, dual minimal trellises, duals to Tanner (1981) graphs, dual input/output (I/O) systems, and dual kernel and image representations. Finally a group code may be decoded using the dual graph, with appropriate Fourier transforms of the inputs and outputs; this can simplify decoding of high-rate codes

New Era Pinstripe Bowl
Dec 28th 2013
My name is Technical Sergeant Sean A. Landolt. I will be returning from my 6 1/2 month deployment on the 10th of December. On the 13th my family and I will be flying to NY for 3 weeks. My wife and I were married about a month before and we never got to take a honeymoon. We are planning to spend a few nights in the city as a sort of mini-honeymoon. It just so happens that my mother's birthday is on Dec 28th: the same day as the New Era Pinstripe Bowl. My family are all die hard Yankees fans as well as Notre Dame fans and I just found out that Notre Dame would be playing in the game at Yankees stadium. This would be an amazing birthday gift to be able to give my mother and be an awesome end to a great trip to the city with my wife. My wish, if possible is for 8 tickets to the New Era Pinstripe Bowl game at Yankee Stadium. This would allow myslef, wife, our 2 children, my brother, his wife, their son (they are flying in from Hong Kong) and my mom, the birthday girl, to go to the game. I know 8 tickets is an awful lot to ask for. I would be greatful for whatever is possible. This is the chance of a life time for my family and with me being gone as long as I was, I would love to be able to surprise them all with this event. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my request.

I am GySgt Vela, I am on the last half of an 8 month deployment. I deployed to Afghanistan on March 22, 2013. I then volunteered to extend and remain in the Middle East. I currently serve as the SNCOIC of MCE-K. During my deployment, I have missed many special events such as Birthday's, Mother and Father's Day, Wedding Anniversary, Holiday's etc. My family is huge San Francisco 49er fans. I would love to be able to take them to go see the 49ers vs Seahawks on Dec 8. This is also the same weekend as my birthday. I can't think of a better way to reunite with my family than to take them to see the team they love, with the man they love.

Andrea Bocelli (Classical/opera)
Dec 7th 2013
My name is Sgt. Joseph Albrecht. I have a daughter that will turn 6 in October 2013, she has grown into Classical and Opera music since she was a baby, just like I have. My goal is to take my daughter with me to hopefully watch Andrea Bocelli live in concert one of these days. I am separated from my daughter right now because I am stationed in 29 Palms, CA and my daughter is in Houston, TX. I think having a father and daughter time watching this concert will be a moment that will be remembered for a long time.

Alabama Football Tickets (any game)
Nov 30th 2013
Hi my name is Christopher Lane. I am a Specialist in the US Army. I am currently deployed but will be home soon and just in time for football season. I am a HUGE Alabama fan. ROLL TIDE!!! I am from South Alabama and I have never been to a Alabama football game. My wish is to go to an Alabama vs Auburn game more then anything but I would settle for ANY Alabama game. I am stationed at Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia and from Magnolia Springs, Alabama so a home game or one in Ga. or close by those areas would be best so I can drive. I would love to take my whole family, I miss them a ton. It will be 9 months since I have seen them. I have a beautiful wife named Carrie and two teenagers, a 19 year old son and a 14 year old daughter. None of them have ever been to a game either and they all love Alabama just as much as I do. I am hoping this can be something we can do as a family after I return home. I know 4 tickets is a lot to ask for but I was hoping maybe since it's college football someone from the school would donate them. If I can't get 4 I would at least like to take my wife with me. I don't think it would be as much fun alone. Don't get me wrong I would still love 1, I just think it's better when you have your family with you especially when you haven't seen them in almost a year. Anyway this would be so awesome and something I would never be able to afford on my own. I just can't imagine a much better ticket to request than to watch my all time favorite and best team in the world play.

Thank You Message From Hero:Thank-you for making it possible for my family and I to attend the Iron Bowl. Even though my team didn't win, it was an amazing game and a great way to spend time with my family after just returning home from a very difficult deployment. It really was amazing! I honestly can't thank you all enough for making this possible. This is something we would of never been able to do on our own and to just be able to get away and have a fun, stress free time and not think about what's going on else where and watch my family as their eyes would light up was truly a blessing. Thank-you so much, oh and ROLL TIDE!
Disneyland Dream
Nov 16th 2013
My wife and I are both active duty and we've missed many birthdays, holidays and special moments. This deployment has been really hard on my children. I've missed my oldest daughter's 10th birthday, my youngest daughter's birthday and her first day of kindergarten and last, my little boy started walking. I would like to take my mother-in-law as well as she has been a rock and helped so much when both of us are TDY or deployed and has been priceless. My wife and I've missed so much over the years and I really want to take my family to Disneyland. I just want to give my children a vacation and see the biggest smiles on their faces. I think this would be a dream come true for all of us. Thank you for all the wishes you have answered and the support you provide us. This trip is planned for when I come home from deployment. I would like 3 Adult and 3 child 4-day Park Hopper Disneyland tickets for: My spouse, myself, mother-in-law, daughter (10 years old) daughter (6 years old) son (16 months). Dates: 14 -18 Oct 13.

It truly was an unforgettable and magical experience that never would have happened without out your support. Thank you, thank you...thank you.

California's Proposition 34 aims to replace the state's death penalty with a sentence of life imprisonment without possibility of parole (LWOP).
Those California voters who are unmoved by moral, ethical, rational, empirical or constitutional arguments against capital punishment should at least consider the financial implications of the death penalty for California taxpayers in this difficult economy.
Contrary to what many people believe, imposing capital punishment is actually much more costly than imposing a life sentence.
A 2008 study found that, because of the expenses required to implement the death penalty--including pre-trial and trial costs, automatic appeals, state and federal Habeas Corpus petitions, and special incarceration outlays--California spends approximately $90,000 per year per inmate over and above what LWOP would cost.
As a result, a 2011 financial assessment concludes, capital punishment has cost the state of California over $4 billion since 1978.
Since only thirteen executions have actually been carried out during the past thirty-four years, that amounts to approximately $308 million per execution.
The authors of the 2011 study calculate that commuting all remaining California death row inmates' sentences to life in prison would achieve an immediate savings of $170 million to the state per year, eventually saving California taxpayers $5 billion over the next twenty years.
That's $5 billion that could be spent on, say, solving more crimes, improving California schools and infrastructure, hiring more firefighters, combating climate change, and tackling our budget deficit.
Given the exorbitant costs of capital punishment, and given that the vast majority of death row inmates will die of old age or other natural causes long before their mandatory appeals are exhausted anyway, how can we afford not to redirect our state resources toward programs that will actually help Californians?
In the name of fiscal responsibility, if for no other reason, Californians should approve Prop. 34 on November 6.

Will it transfer audio?
I recently purchased a similar cable from ebay that is mini displayport to hdmi it trsf the picture fine but I cannot get the audio through my tv. Is there another way to get the audio trsf to my tv?
- Asked by Rody K from West Valley
Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter

Best Answer:
You will need to use a 3.5mm jack to RCA (black and red - Left and Right) cable as the MBP will only output audio from the headphone jack. This is probably the cheapest option to get sound from your Mac to your TV. Quality will not be the best as it will be analogue.
- Answered by Daniel C from Epping
If your TV has an optical SPDIF audio input, you could use an optical audio cable in addition to the displayport / hdmi lead instead of an analogue audio lead - the MBP supports headphone type connectors and optical audio in the same port.
- Answered by Paul W
If you want the sound to come out of a TV you will need to use the audio jack in the side of your MBP. The MBP can only output audio from either the audio jack ,or it's USB ports ( the Apple 24" Cinema Display uses USB for it's internal speakers and also to power the USB ports in the back of the display )
- Answered by Bruno F from Blackmans Bay
It is a Display port as in Video not Audio, You have to use the Headphones Jack on the Side
- Answered by Kevin S from Lees Summit
Two factors here. 1. your mac. 2. your TV.
There is an Apple KB HT4241 which covers details of the HDMI out, but it is vague with dates.
It also depends on your TV inputs.
If using the mini display port to DVI adapter, you can connect to your TV with a DVI - HDMI cable and a 3.5mm optical - SPDIF (toslink) optical audio cable. This will give you digital video and audio.
Your TV may not have an optical audio input, in which case you need to use an analogue input- however, it may not be possible for your TV to accept an analogue audio input with a digital HDMI input.
This means using a component video or S-Video adapter along with an analogue 3.5mm - RCA audio cable, to allow your TV to accept both the video and audio signals from the same source inputs on the TV (eg AV3 in etc.)
The alternative is to use Apple's mini display port to VGA adapter and an analogue video/ audio converter cable. This is not a digital signal though.
Depending on your TV, you may be able to use a VGA cable (d-sub15 pin) into the TV with a matching RCA analogue input. This would require the mini display port to vga adapter for the VGA cable and the separate 3.5mm - RCA audio cable.

Guest Reviews
We hear it time and again from guests returning from their treks: "Thomson is clearly the best outfit on the mountain." But don't take our word for it, take theirs!
I didn't even look at other companies.
My guide Edward was also absolutely top-of-the-line. He was always responsive to individual needs. The porters, too, were so helpful. The little details, like a hot pre-breakfast drink as the weather got colder further up the mountain, made all the difference.
Thomson Safaris treats their staff well.
From the start, the Thomson Safaris staff was super helpful; any questions I had got answered quickly and thoroughly. Both our guides were helpful, patient and kind. The food was great, always well prepared, and getting to know the rest of our group was a joy!
We were very happy with our trip…
The single lasting impression of my Kilimanjaro trek was our sense of achievement. The hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I would not have been successful without the support of the excellent crew.
We were thrilled with the experience…
Thank you for a great Kilimanjaro Trek and Safari! Our group of 5 made it to the summit and had a fantastic time along the way. I had a great experience and highly recommend the Western Approach Route. Thank you for working with us to plan the trip so well
The best money I have ever spent!!
I can't say enough about the excellent guides and porters that worked with us on our trip. Andrew, Francis, Simon, Glory and Dixon deserve special mention for their hard work and excellence in everything they did.
