Encounters with a Rogue (Half Moon House) by Deb Marlowe
Synopsis: An Unexpected Encounter
Tall, practical girls might not be worth much in man's world, but Miss Lisbeth Moreton knows she's worth more than the squire's prized heifer.
To change her fate, she's run off to a date with destiny at the British Museum. Her would-be swain never shows, but an unexpected encounter with Lord Cotwell and his lonely ward might lead to altogether new prospects . . . and perhaps to love.
A Waltz in the Park
James Vickers once believed honor and family duty to be his life's work. Now he knows better–and he's appointed himself as silent witness to his father's sins. His greatest goal is to act as the continuously pricking thorn in his lordship's side–and scandal is his greatest weapon. He has no use for an innocent young miss.
Propriety is Miss Adelaide Stockton's most important asset. She must be all that is prim and proper if she's to live down her parent's misdeeds and have any hope of catching a husband. She must avoid scoundrels like Vickers at all costs.
Yet fate has thrown them together–and given each a key to the other's ambition. A bargain is struck…but together they find that gaining what one desires most is far more difficult than a waltz in the park.
This is a two-part book. Part 1, An Unexpected Encounter, focuses on a strong independent woman who has taken her future into her own hands on a gamble and appears to have lost. He is a bit of a cantankerous older gentleman who hated society and has to chase his new ward to the museum too many times to count. On one fateful trip to the museum, he comes across Lisbeth and is surprised at her protectiveness of his ward who she just met. She ends up coming home to become the girl's new governess and while there airs out more than his home and infuses new life into a bitter gentleman. Their story was sweet, there was one instance of budding passion but then it didn't go far. I would have liked to have seen their passion unfold further. In the end, it was a sweet, almost innocent love story.
The second story, A Waltz in the Park, follows James Vickers, the friend who abandoned Lisbeth in her time of need. He is an infamous rake and at the point where the story picks up, he has evolved his quest for vengeance against his father into one where he is no longer drunk all of the time, but rather being more subtle and thought out in his schemes. Along the way, he meets the "Celestial", an innocent that everyone is talking about as being a great beauty who is very innocent and angelic. She ends up striking a bargain with him; he will help her meet Hestia Wright, the famous courtesan, and she will help him speak with her cousin who he needs information from to use against his father. As they meet up in secret to exchange information passions flair. They have several stolen kisses, but he continues to keep his distance because he cannot be connected to an innocent, one his father would love to see him with. Tensions flare, harsh words are spoken, all seems lost, and then all ends well. The conclusion was sweet; I really liked how she set the scene in the park and won him in the end. Overall, it was an enjoyable story, but again no passion beyond several stolen kisses. Out of the two in the bundle, I did like this one a lot more. I do expect certain behaviors from a man known for his rakish ways and James did come across a bit too tame in that department, but in the grand scheme of the story, it didn't hinder the enjoyment of reading it.

This is a nice scenic fall ride. Only things I would add are a slight detour once you cross the bridge over the CT river follow signs to Devil's Hopyard State Park. Checkout waterfall then stay on Hopyard Rd for a curvy little fun ride along the stream. At end of road take a right on Rte 82 & a quick left on 156. Also once into Old Saybrook I recommend stopping by The Monkey Farm for a great lunch.

The main points of a typical grievance are that the particular person signed up, took a survey and bought paid $25. Looks like it did simply what it said on the tin, so why complain? The particular person is not objecting to getting paid $25 for answering a few simple questions within the time it takes to drink a cup of coffee. The actual downside is that he solely bought invited to take one survey all through the entire week so the $25 price was his whole revenue. Wanting to earn rather more than $25 per week is completely understandable, it isn't exactly enough to build up an early retirement fund. Nevertheless, the issue just isn't with the program: the issue is that this particular person failed to understand that no single survey firm has an limitless supply of surveys becoming his demographic profile. The answer is straightforward: if he joins extra survey companies, he will probably be eligible for extra surveys and can earn more.

Enjoy! 10 fantastic frozen drinks will quench everyone in the family's thirst this summer!
Like PB & J, summer and 7-11 slurpees go hand in hand in my book. Even more fun than a trip to the slurpee machine are frozen drinks you can make at home with the kids.
*This post contains affiliate links. Please read our full disclosure policy HERE.*
Making these with the kids is reminiscent of my Snoopy snow cone machine (did you have one?), I think. Today, I gathered 10 fun frozen drink recipes (non-alcoholic…although, if you want to slip some in there, I won't judge) to help you and the little ones beat the heat this summer! Hopefully, you can enjoy one, or several of these this summer sipping lazily out on a front porch, or on a gorgeous patio somewhere. Here, we spend most of our outdoor time on our deck, which was a BIG OL DIY project last summer. I fully intend on spending some quality time on my buttocks there this summer, drink in hand.
If you don't have a great blender for these drinks, fear not! They still make Snoopy machines ?…but if you prefer something with a little more horsepower and capacity, I've linked a couple up below for you to check out, along with some of my other fave summer entertaining items I've spotted this season ? ? ☀ ? —>>
And now, on to the frozen drinks!! Click on any of the links or photos here to grab the recipe straight from the recipe creator.

UWC mission
The UWC movement makes education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future. In Takhmau, south of Phnom Penh, the Kuma Cambodia School is educating the most vulnerable children in its community thanks to the commitment and support of the UWCSEA community.
Changing tomorrows today—celebrating the opening of the Kuma Cambodia School
In Takhmau, south of Phnom Penh, a small school is educating the most vulnerable children in its community. Kuma Cambodia, which welcomed its first students in June 2012, is one of the Global Concerns at East Campus. It is a free full-day school offered to children who would not otherwise have access to education due to extreme poverty or living in a home where domestic violence, drug abuse or lack of basic care is the norm.
On 27 September, the first group of UWCSEA East students, parents, staff and their families travelled to Cambodia for the official opening of the Kuma School. The weekend included a variety of activities—both educational and celebratory.
The group visited NAPIC NGO's (the Kuma School's parent organisation) first project, the Maternity Hospital and the villages that they support, created a mural with the children at the school, planted the school's first vegetable garden (from which the children are now eating the vegetables), had time to play and get to know the children and, finally, celebrated the school's official opening.
Language was no barrier between the UWCSEA and Kuma children as they were intent on having fun. The entire group also had the opportunity to experience a typical day for the Kuma students, which includes three healthy meals, personal hygiene, playtime and lessons in Khmer, arts and culture, PE, music and English.
After school on Friday afternoon, all of the children from UWCSEA East and Kuma piled into one mini-bus to take the Kuma students home to their village. There was much singing and game playing as the children enjoyed time together. Emma L (Grade 5) said, "My favourite part of Kuma Cambodia was bringing some of the kids home to the village on the first day in the mini buses … This brought home to us what a haven the school is for so many of the children."
The weekend culminated with the school's official opening ceremony. Just under four months after the school opened its doors, both staff and students were beaming with pride for their school. The ceremony included a speech made by one of the students on behalf of all the Kuma students, who then performed a traditional Cambodian dance and sang in both English and Khmer. The work that had gone into the performance and the difference that has already been made in the children's lives was easy to see.
One UWCSEA East parent shared, "I could not believe my eyes. Having seen photos of the Kuma children before they started at the school, I was blown away by the improvement in the health of these wonderful kids … Their pride in themselves and newfound confidence would reduce the hardest of hearts to tears. The best part was watching them doing everything that our children take for granted: dressing up, playing football, singing and dancing."
The Kuma students' parents were overjoyed as they watched their children confidently performing in front of nearly 300 people. With the blessings, speeches, performances and ribbon-cutting complete, Kuma Cambodia School was officially opened.
Also in attendance were the next class of children and their parents who were to begin on 1 October 2012. There are now 40 students at the school and they are thriving. After being a dream for several years, the Kuma School is now providing both a holistic education and nurturing care to children who might otherwise have neither. Through the relationships with UWCSEA and other sponsors, they are also learning that there is a world outside of their village and that they are an important part of it.
The Kuma School is a tremendous example of the UWC mission in action through the generosity, encouragement and action of the UWCSEA community and fellow sponsors who made the school a reality—and a special place that is changing tomorrows today.

Thanks for your question.
A quick search of the MJC Library catalog showed me that we have several books on the subject of California rivers that might interest you. To get any of these books from the library you'll want to first notice which library has the book (is it East Campus, West Campus, or Columbia College?) and the call number or book's address on the shelf.
The second title on the list may be just the book you're looking for. It is called Field Guide to California Rivers, is in both the East and West Campus Libraries, and has the call number of GB1225 .C3 P348 2012.
Please let us know if you have any more questions.

The nice UPS man dropped off a small Sephora box yesterday, and along with the Stila Barbie palette for my giveaway and a few other items I got to give as gifts were these fabulous samples! I chose the new Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Foundation SPF 20, Lancome Genefique, and Clinique SuperFit.
I also redeemed my 500 points for the Kat von D palette (more on this at a later date – I've got reviews and swatches for you, but if you're contemplating it you may not want to waste your points as I was really disappointed) and then another 100 points for Clinique's High Impact Mascara.
But the highlight of all these fun samples was by far the BareMinerals Flawless Definition Mascara which I got by using code: BEFLAWLESS at checkout. I was expecting this to be decent but not any better than Buxom Lash, but (at least based upon my first impressions) this stuff is pretty awesome! I won't say anything else until I've given Flawless Definition more testing, but if you're planning to place a Sephora order anytime soon be sure to get your deluxe sample!

Silent intruders come during inattentive installation of the freeware
The process when malicious programs and free software are distributed at the same time is called software bundling. When a user installs freeware, various intruders gain a front door entry to the device, and if you skip through steps, you get PUPs and other malware at the same time as your applications.
Researchers[3] always note how important is to track every step during installations and choose Advanced or Custom options when you can, instead of Default or Quick. Advanced settings allow you to see every additional program and de-select unwanted installs. Choosing reputable sources for your software could also be beneficial because p2p networks and similar websites promote questionable applications.

uTorrent 22.214.171.124180uTorrent is a file sharing program that uses P2P (peer-to-peer) transfer model. With this application, you will be able to download, for free, all sorts of content that you find on the web, music and videos to programs and documents.
A small but fast BitTorrent client
Operation is possible thanks to uTorrent BitTorrent protocol, which makes it easier to download large files by decentralizing content. This means that when you use this program, you will transfer small pieces of material that you want from your computer to other network members. At the same time, you will receive multiple pieces of all users who have the file.
This mode allows you to use uTorrent to download everything you want at a high speed because it does not depend on a single server. If we add the fact that it is a very small customer and do not use a lot of resources of your PC, you will understand why it is one of the most popular alternatives in P2P programs.
Download all free web content
A key feature of uTorrent and similar programs is that you will find a large community of users who share materials. Thus, through their contributions, you'll be able to find all the content you've always wanted.
To start transferring files, you will simply use the search engine integrated uTorrent, which will scan the Web and send you a list with accurate results. Once you have the list, simply double-click one of them to start the download.
This means that you will not have to wait for queues to start downloading large transfers, or that you have to put in place additional configurations to use the program. However, uTorrent will offer you a variety of options that you can adjust manually to achieve the best performance possible for your connection.
If we add to this that the program has a system for assigning priority and bandwidth, you understand that you will be in control of everything that happens with uTorrent.
P2P downloads with a full client
uTorrent has many other features that allow you to download content to the best possible way. Encryption of transmitted information, fully configurable look and search engine, video streaming and torrents of localization for 52 languages

The Altis Armed Forces (or in short form, the AAF) are an Independent faction in ArmA 3.
| In the wake of civil war, the Jerusalem Cease Fire of 2030 mandated the creation of an armed defence force to secure the sovereign territory of The Republic of Altis and Stratis.
Although it officially operates under the observation and training of international peacekeepers, the force remains loyal to the new, hard-line Altis government and acts with de facto judicial and executive authority. However, it is debilitated by an inexperienced command structure and is blighted by widespread corruption.
Limited in scope, the battalion-sized force, led by Col. Georgious Akhanteros, is weighed-down by on-going counter-insurgency operations on Altis and, recently, has reached-out to the international community for additional support including, among others, both the political and militarized wings of CSAT member states and associated private investment companies.
Official ArmA 3 site description
Battalion-sized, the Altis Armed Forces (AAF) represent the main land, air and sea defence force of the Republic of Altis and Stratis.
Fiercely loyal to its leader, Colonel Georgious Akhanteros, the present day AAF is an amalgamation of the various pro-Akhanteros and anti-Loyalist forces that banded together during the civil war.
Following Akhanteros' successful 2026 Kavala Coup and victory over the Loyalists with the signing of the Jerusalem Cease Fire agreement of 2030, the AAF has since continued to maintain an iron fist over the country.
Their primary focus has now shifted from conventional warfare to counterinsurgency. They continue to work alongside their foreign partners from the East to neutralise a growing threat known as the so-called "Freedom and Independence Army" (FIA), ruthless insurgents determined on destabilising the nation's security.
At least two main elements form the bulk of the armed forces:
1st Regiment
The 1st Regiment consists of the bulk of front line combat units, comprising of six companies' worth of heavy armour, mechanised and motorised infantry.
Their units are distributed throughout the country, though much of it is concentrated in the country's central and southern/eastern regions. At least one platoon of elite tankers is known to operate advanced T-140 tanks; courtesy of their CSAT benefactors.
The 1st Regiment is personally led by Colonel Georgious Akhanteros himself.
3rd Regiment
The 3rd Regiment, better known as the 3rd Support Regiment, consists chiefly of battlefield logistics and field support troops with limited access to light tanks.
Unlike the 1st Regiment, the majority of the 3rd's units are based in the western region. As of 2035, the 3rd Regiment is commanded by Major Thanos Gavras.
At the height of the civil war, pro-AAF paramilitary groups were known to have supported the military throughout the conflict.
Most of these fighters were anti-Loyalist citizens who took up arms in the immediate aftermath of the Kavala Coup. Post-civil war however, they appear to have been disbanded entirely, though it ultimately remains unclear as why they are no longer present.
Since then, the AAF has maintained two other supporting elements alongside the 1st and 3rd Regiment:
- The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Air Wing Squadrons consist entirely of the AAF's aviation units. They operate a myriad of older fixed-wing and rotary-wing helicopters, with the latter primarily responsible for logistical airlift.
- The AAF also maintains a small fleet of maritime vessels, though their capabilities are limited to coastal patrol duties only.
Prior to July 2035, a small unit of liaisons were also attached to NATO's Task Force Aegis. However, they merely advised the peacekeepers on the limitations of their mandate as TF Aegis acted independently without input from the AAF.
Covertly backed by foreign powers, a high-ranking military officer by the name of Georgious Akhanteros leads a coup in an attempt to seize power from the civilian government.
The coup d'etat is swift, with Akhanteros and his supporters effectively forming a junta that silences any political opposition groups and crushes all dissent.
This unilateral act sparked a bloody civil war between Akhanteros' supporters and pre-coup Loyalist forces (predecessors of the present-day FIA) who sought to re-establish civilian control of the country.
The fighting would continue to last a total of four more years until the signing of Jerusalem Cease Fire agreement of 2030, which brought a halt to the bloodshed. The agreement was largely one-sided however, as the AAF had emerged victorious while the Loyalists were rendered completely irrelevant by the war's end.
Aside from bringing about a conclusive end to the fighting however, the agreement also gave international recognition to Akhanteros' cabinet as the legitimate government of the Republic of Altis and Stratis.
Events of Beyond Hope (2026)
NOTE: This section contains spoilers from ArmA 3's Tac-Ops Mission Pack DLC scenario 'Beyond Hope'.
Nine years prior to the events of The East Wind, Akhanteros quickly seizes power from the civilian government in Kavala with the help of CSAT and anti-government paramilitary groups. His coup causes the start of a violent civil war as loyalist forces rallied together to bring about an end to his rule.
Early in the war, a temporary six-day ceasefire is agreed upon in order for IDAP to deliver aid supplies to civilians on both sides. However, the shaky ceasefire is immediately broken by the AAF after they ambush a loyalist patrol, which leads to yet another outbreak of fighting.
The AAF suffers several defeats early in the war (ranging from the loss of much territory and heavy equipment) but the odds gradually begin to shift in their favour as attrition takes its toll on the loyalists. Increasing amounts of international aid from foreign hosts pour in to prop up his forces, and dwindling support for the loyalists would ultimately lead to victory and the official recognition of his government.
Events of the Prologue (2034)
NOTE: This section contains spoilers from ArmA 3's 'Prologue' campaign.
Though victorious, his actions had come at a rather severe price as Akhanteros' government was poorly received by most citizens of the country. Many (though not overtly) attempted to either sabotage his government or assisted anti-AAF groups.
Continued crackdowns on dissenters and rampant corruption throughout the organisation, would also cause many conscripts and volunteers to defect to a new fledgling guerilla group that called itself the FIA (Alexis Kouris being a notable example).
Led by a charismatic leader who sought to bring about an end to his rule, the FIA's influence gradually wore down the AAF's grip over the countryside. As the insurgency grew in size, so too did the fighting between the AAF and the FIA, with an increasing number of clashes between the two sides ultimately forcing the international community to intervene.
A joint force of British and U.S. peacekeepers form up Task Force Aegis, with their primary mandate being the supervision of both the FIA and the AAF. A CSAT contingent is also separately dispatched to the country under the guise of assisting in peacekeeping operations, and providing counterinsurgency support for the AAF.
Barely months after the intervention, a sit-down is finally arranged between the FIA and the AAF in the former capital of Kavala in order to bring a halt to the fighting. The negotiations were a ruse however, as both the FIA and AAF had ulterior motives behind agreeing for a sit-down; the FIA planned on staging an uprising in the city, while the AAF sought to eliminate its leaders once and for all at the meeting.
Predictably, the uprising is swiftly crushed by the AAF, with the surviving guerillas either tortured or executed.
Events of Remnants of War (2034)
NOTE: This section contains spoilers from ArmA 3's Laws of War DLC 'Remnants of War' campaign.
Eventually, the village of Orekastro in the north-west of the country becomes a major stronghold and symbol for the growing insurgency after the guerillas and its inhabitants successfully wrest control of it from the AAF.
As it represented a significant threat to the stability of the new government; a problem exacerbated no less by the recent failed uprising, the AAF saw fit to make an example of Oreokastro by deciding to launch a major offensive to retake the village through any means necessary.
To their surprise (and misfortune) however, the village proves to be more difficult to siege than they had initially expected. Almost half a month later, the guerillas still maintain a foothold over the village in spite of their heavy losses, with Akhanteros and the AAF itself suffering one humiliating defeat after another.
With few viable options left on the table and the FIA still holding on strong, a cluster airstrike is eventually called in to raze the village to the ground once and for all.
Ironically however, the airstrike did more harm to the image of the AAF and Akhanteros' government than it did to the FIA. The AAF's inhumane decision to destroy the village in such a fashion would become a rallying call for FIA, doing far more to convince citizens to join their cause than they could have ever had hoped to achieve.
Events of The East Wind (2035)
NOTE: This section contains spoilers from ArmA 3's 'The East Wind' campaign.
One year after the massacre at Oreokastro, the AAF continues to hold its ground against the FIA with the continued (albeit reluctant) help of the NATO peacekeepers from TF Aegis and support from CSAT counterinsurgency forces.
However, tensions are on the rise with NATO forces as the rift continues to widen over the questionable ethics of the AAF's actions; particularly when it comes to dealing with suspected FIA rebels and their supporters. Matters are further complicated as Akhanteros' government seeks to distance itself from its NATO partners, and proposes deals with CSAT instead.
This eventually culminates in the AAF restricting the operational mandate of TF Aegis to the island of Stratis only, with all NATO forces being forbidden from stepping foot on the mainland itself. CSAT forces on the other hand, assume the post of peacekeepers on the main island and are granted permission to utilise the main airport as an airbase.
And with their mandate at a close and no hope of it being renewed, the remaining U.S.-led forces of TF Aegis begin to scale down their operations and prepare to leave the country (British troops had already left many months prior).
Whether it was by accident or through a deliberate misunderstanding however, the AAF launches a retaliatory strike against the remainder of the TF Aegis on Stratis in response to a supposed attack by NATO forces. Their "counterattack" results in the deaths of almost a hundred peacekeepers and the destruction of vital NATO facilities.
Though caught completely off guard and outnumbered, the remnants of TF Aegis eventually rally together and manage to inflict one critical blow after another on the AAF, forcing the latter to retreat and request help from CSAT. With their assistance, the tide turns in their favour as the remnants of TF Aegis are finally taken out.
Stretched thin and facing pressure from CSAT to deal with the group, the AAF begins to lose control of the northern and western parts of the mainland to the FIA, now emboldened by covert support from CTRG and the efforts of a certain new guerilla commander.
Eventually, the FIA launch a major offensive aimed at laying the groundwork in preparation for a NATO invasion. Having suffered heavy losses on all fronts, the AAF retreat to other sections of the island in order to consolidate their remaining forces.
AAF command leaves a skeleton force in the western parts of the country in order to delay the advance of FIA guerillas and the soon-to-arrive NATO counterinvasion force. Meanwhile, cities to the east of the island and its capital Pyrgos are hastily fortified.
NATO commences its full scale invasion of the mainland after Stratis is quickly seized without much resistance from the local AAF garrison.
Thanks to support from CSAT, the AAF manage to stop the initial invasion force aimed at taking the main airport on Altis. At the same time, they mount an armoured counteroffensive to retake the town of Dorida after a small incursion force of U.S. troops and FIA guerillas occupy it, destroying their temporary FOB and driving them back into the sea.
These small victories merely delay the inevitable from happening however, as the bulk of NATO forces from the 111th Infantry Division (111th ID) overrun the airport overnight after a bout of heavy fighting.
To make matters worse, a separate invasion force lands off the eastern coast of Altis and captures several key locations, including the town of Chalkeia. They drive a complete wedge in AAF supply lines, and forces what's left of the AAF to evacuate to the southern and north-eastern sectors of the island.
And as if to add insult to injury, Pyrgos itself falls to the 111th after its defenders are taken out by superior numbers and firepower; made worse by the fact that CSAT forces themselves simply handed over their heavy armour assets and began to evacuate their personnel and scientists, refusing to provide any assistance to the AAF.
Abandoned by CSAT and completely surrounded on all sides, the AAF make a defiant last stand against overwhelming numbers. They manage to inflict many casualties against NATO forces, but Akhanteros eventually agrees to unconditionally surrender. The remainder of the AAF disarm themselves and stand down.
Post-The East Wind
| Following the defeat of forces loyal to General Akhanteros, the provisional ceasefire has held firm. With a new round of NATO-CSAT talks due imminently, strategic analysts point to encouraging signs of a lasting peace, with a shared peacekeeping deal on the table.
AAN news report detailing the aftermath of the Altis Incident during the events of Apex Protocol
By the conflict's end, more than a third of the AAF's total personnel were either dead or seriously wounded. In the days that followed the official surrender, those that survived were herded off and placed into joint NATO/FIA-run internment camps to await processing.
FIA guerillas identified those that were responsible for committing war crimes, while others were simply released and allowed to return to their homes.
Akhanteros himself is shown to be present at the talks being held in Kavala with representatives from NATO, CSAT and the new president-elect of the nation, Nikos Panagopoulos, as all sides discuss the potential agreement on the ratification of a joint peacekeeping deal between NATO and CSAT.
One additional condition of the agreement would also see to the complete demilitarisation of the AAF, with its leader Col. Akhanteros also possibly facing trial for the ruthless actions he commanded the AAF to commit throughout the fighting.
The motivation behind the AAF attack in the initial stages of the Altis Incident is left in dispute however, with the exact cause yet to be understood or revealed by those responsible at the time.
Most of the AAF's hardware consists of outdated or long-since decommissioned for service equipment used by NATO forces.
Much of this equipment also dates back to the era of the pre-civil war AAF. Post-war acquisitions have since been obtained from the militaries of other Southern European nations facing total economic collapse, or provided/loaned to them at no cost by CSAT.
Troopers wear a mixture of early 21st century American-made uniforms patterned in a fractal digital green camouflage, while standard-issue combat helmets are old PASGT helmets that have been modified to mount night vision goggles.
Plate carrier vests are worn for chest/torso protection, though they are relatively obsolete compared to their NATO counterparts. On the very rare occasion that an operation will involve NBC threats, some specialist AAF troopers may don protective oversuits to shield them against the dangers of chemical/biological agents.
- Though not explicitly stated, the structure of AAF appears to be loosely inspired by the Armed Forces of Malta, the Cypriot National Guard, and the Hellenic Armed Forces.

Cosmetic dentistry is everywhere these days.
With new materials, especially dental "superglues," we're reshaping teeth, filling gaps between teeth, restoring broken teeth, replacing missing teeth, placing lighter braces. The technique is called dental bonding, and the aesthetic result is wonderful.
But it's not forever.
The American Dental Association puts the life of tooth bonding materials at about five years. This may be a conservative estimate, but there will come a time when a bond needs attention.
In general, if you treat a bonded tooth like your other teeth, you'll keep your dental restoration intact longer. Lax home care habits or the wrong foods can hasten wear and tear.
So go easy. If your tooth restoration is brand new, or years old and still flawless, keep smiling. With care, we've seen dental bonding last a long, long time.
Here are some reminders to help lengthen the life of your dental restoration.
We all suspect that how we look makes a difference in our lives. Think of the days when everything is going fine - that's a day you're feeling good and probably looking good.
In our teens, looks are everything. But as we get older, we tend to take our appearance for granted, and rely instead on our skills and professional competence to make up for any "cosmetic" imperfections.
Well, "cosmetic" is more than skin deep. We form very real biases about the people around us, even as adults, based on the simple fact of appearance. And the most critical factor in such judgments, according to copious research, is the teeth.
Yes, women are concerned about shape, as men are impressed by height. But everyone reacts the same to a healthy, beautiful smile. Whether we like it or not, people with straight white teeth are perceived to be more honest, more productive, more out-going, trusting, successful - you name it - than their counterparts with a missing tooth or broken teeth.
Your dentist has seen this psychology at work. For his or her patients, children and adults alike, cosmetic dentistry has made a tangible improvement not just in smiles, but in the quality of lives. A smile enhanced by restorative dentistry brings dramatic changes - changes more than "skin deep."
With new materials and techniques - tooth bonding, teeth bleaching, dental veneers, invisible braces - your cosmetic dentist is excited about the "magic" he or she can make. They've seen self-esteem grow before their eyes. Your dentist can help you look good, feel good, and get on with a healthy, vital life. Cosmetic dentistry? Go for it!

Real Madrid is ready to consider an offer of £100 million from the Italian champions Juventus for their talisman Cristiano Ronaldo. The 33-year old Portugal international has scored 451 goals. He has also helped Los Blanco's win five European titles.
The five-times Ballon d'Or' winner's future has been the subject of intense discussion. Reports from the media indicate that Ronaldo has fallen out with the Real Madrid president Florentino Perez. Spanish reporter Guillem Balague reported that Cristiano is very keen to push a move to join Juventus. The Turin side is ready to offer the Portuguese maestro a worthwhile deal. Ronaldo would earn around 30 million Euros a year on a four-year contract if the deal materialises.
Time for a Change of Guard at Los Blanco's
Cristiano has been unhappy at Real Madrid for a very long time. He has been offered many deals in the past by Madrid for him to stay. His pockets have been boosted every time he mentions he wants to leave. However, now it seems like the 33-year-old is now seeking for a new challenge elsewhere.
This could be the right time for Real Madrid president Perez to cash in on someone who is nearly 34 years old. This gamble can prove rewarding for both parties.
There are reports circulating suggesting that Brazilian golden boy Neymar is likely to replace Ronaldo at the Bernabeu. Neymar is with Brazil in Russia at the World Cup and he has been linked with a move to Real Madrid.
The 19-year-old French international Kylian Mbappe is also admired by Perez and his mouth-watering displays at the World Cup in Russia might persuade Madrid to lure him from PSG.
If either of the two deals came through then it could be a progressive summer for Real Madrid. The winds of change have hit Bernabeu. You can still enjoy the gambling games at Yebo Casino while you watch how the new football season will unfold.

My title might seem like an oxymoron, but between the fabric and the style of this dress it really does span the major places of the world. Even past style trends come in to play, as well. All I know is that I have a new easy go-to fun dress with great comfort and major versatility. Let me take you on a tour of it!
Super easy, very quick, and nicely fitting are the trio of prominent descriptions which come to my mind to let others know about this pattern. The upper half is a bit generous while the bottom half is more fitted for this dress and I feel like those two combos work well together in this case, but if anyone else wants it to fit differently – now you know what to adapt! As it is a rather simple design, I let some awesome fabric, which I had bought little of because it was expensive, take center stage and some scraps on hand become useful. What a double bonus!
FABRIC: a 100% polyester crepe for the printed fashion fabric, a cotton/poly broadcloth remnant for the tan contrast fabric, and a light beige sheer-mist batiste cotton. The fashion fabric is a Hancock exclusive print for the spring of 2015.
NOTIONS: Nothing but some ribbon was needed to buy as I had the zipper, thread, and interfacing already.
PATTERN: Burda Style #7201 pattern, a store offering available only in tactile paper form as far as I know, in others words not on the Burda website as a downloadable PDF.
TIME TO COMPLETE: From start to finish only took me about 5 hours, which was done practically in one afternoon on May 7, 2015.
THE INSIDES: I'm embarrassed to admit I just wanted the dress done and thus the insides were left raw, merely zig-zag stitched along the edges (not usually how I operate). After seeing how it shredded post-wash machine visit, I did come back to the dress and apply fray check liquid on the inside edges. The facings are finished off nicely, though!
TOTAL COST: Well, after a boo-boo in cutting, I sucked up the gumption to spend yet more and buy extra fabric than at first for a total of about $20 (with ribbon). Not a bad total, but more than what I wanted (or normally spend) for a simple quick dress.
Making this dress was one of those sudden inspiration, need-it-now, in-between-difficult-projects relief thing. Alas, in my rush to have the dress done I did make a major error in the direction of the fabric – the print was upside down as I cut the front skirt panel. Oops! My hubby originally told me I can see the print better this way (grrr….) but he was sweet enough to go and find the last yard of fabric left at the store the very next day. Yay, a project saved! The print is so cool, my dad tipped me off to it (yes he likes to visit fabric stores for camouflage), and so I felt it was worth spending the extra dough. I need to really remember to look ahead to avoid this again because I might not always be able to buy more fabric to save my behind…or rather my project.
Looking at reviews online, I could not find a good run-through of a version of the pattern made "as-is" to help me. Personally, I would enjoy using this pattern again to make a nice open wrap cardigan, too. However, I like how it turned out according to the pattern this time. It is a tad confusing how you make the front twice as wide as it needs to be so you turn it in half – part facing, part outward front (kind of unnecessary). I did sew down a wider seam allowance for the bodice's mock front wrap so it wasn't so poufy over my chest…my only change.
The skirt's center back slit is rather high up there but luckily it is a kick pleat (lapped) style so it doesn't reveal as much as it could. Still, the slit is needed on account of the tapered-in pencil shape which makes this actually sort of a wiggle bottom dress. This feature slims the silhouette and adds a little 'hottie' factor. I mostly appreciate the vintage flair, especially with the kimono sleeves. I might come back at some point in the future and make a second lining skirt for the inner bottom half of the dress, but for now it's just fine.
Making and wearing the obi-style belt is fun! My only adaptation here was to leave out the slot opening in the sides for the ties – tying them around the middle works out fine without cutting into the belt. I made my belt completely reversible for maximum versatility. Doubling up on the thickness of the sheer beige batiste side was the only way to avoid see-through of seams (for both the belt and the bodice front). The darker, browner tan cotton on the other side is single layered on the belt and had the lightweight interfacing ironed onto its wrong side. This darker tan was added to appease desire for versatility and (partially) my indecisiveness, for I originally wanted it as part of the dress' contrast until I realized there wasn't enough. So, being on the belt, I can still wear that color…and use it up out of my scrap stash.
I suppose I am rather attached to what the print and the oriental style means to me for several reasons. First off, I have visited many of the cities and places in the print and have fond memories of good times spent at Paris in France and Rome in Italy. I haven't yet been to New York or London but would certainly not mind going. Thus, my dress is dubbed "Global Capitals" for its depictions of popular places of to visit globally. Now I can sort of feel like a world citizen in this dress, wearing on my fabric free-hand travel sketches of places I've been to and would like to go to on my clothes.
Secondly, I used some items for my photo shoot which had been part of a very authentic Geisha girl outfit my mother sewed for me back when I was 10. She did a lot of research into the outfit to gain appreciation and make sure she made it 100% authentic, even down to the hair style, socks and sandals, and the cummerbund wrapping…I was so proud to wear it and even won in a contest! Here, I am wearing in my hair the wooden hair picks with inlaid pearl and stone decoration on the ends and a carved wood fan. I don't get these things out except for a very good reason. Only I left out the hair flowers and sandals this time to stick with the slightly vintage/modern aura of the dress, although I am posing for these pictures on the edge of a bamboo patch.
Oriental and kimono inspired clothing has been popular for many, many decades. Fashion has produced some beautiful culturally-appreciative garments as well as some totally hacked-up, solely style-focused inauthentic ones from that same inspiration. The 1910, 1920, and 1930 eras had some strong Oriental influenced designs, especially when it came to nightwear such as kimono robes, but the decade of the 1950's and 1960's had a re-surging impact, too. This is why this Burda dress is part of my "Retro Forward" post series. The dress' style is rather muted when it comes to bold design or clear following of a past trend. However, that is good in the way it stays fresh longer and lends itself to personal interpretation in the making. That doesn't mean that there aren't subtle relations to past styles, and in Burda's #7201 dress I see a lot of the 1950's, mostly because of (as I mentioned earlier) the pencil, almost wiggle-style skirt, kimono cut-on sleeves, and oriental influence. The 1920's, 1930's popularized the unorthodox "wiggle" cheongsams which we in our modern times often think as Asian wear, but before circa 1949 cheongsams where a upper social class thing, whereas after that date they became merely a fashion garment, as they were in the 1950's, 60's, and 70's designs. This dress is not a Mandarin gown (the neck, front, and collar are different), I know, but it does have some features and I just wanted to point out how very different decades can share the same influence. In regards to the dress bodice, there is a vintage year 1952 McCall's #9113 with a jacket that has a similar front to this Burda's dress, and the pattern back calls this a "flare back" front neck – interesting! I used the front cover of an unrelated 1942 pattern, Simplicity #4418, for further "flare back" front contrast inspiration for my dress' bodice. My sewing muse comes in many forms and sources.
I love any opportunity to think about my past travels and the good memories attached to them. Usually I just have mementos, such as pictures and bought gifts to do this. But as I try to always have a sewing project provide me with a chance to learn about past fashion and other cultures with their history, a garment that can give me both that and good memories is a cheery combo for me. I hope your sewing brings you to your "happy place" inside and out the way mine does!
