I was looking over my bank statement in Mint the other day and realized that I am paying my bank $10.00 a month to for the privilege to keep my money in one of their savings accounts. I quickly clicked on the transaction and noticed that I have been paying this fee for over year. Blood immediately began to rush to my head in embarrassment – I am an idiot. Why hadn't I noticed this before (there is an easy answer to this – I never check my savings statements – more on this later)?. Of course my next thought was to close the account. I really only have it in case I need to quickly transfer funds to my checking account – also with said bank. Apparently I am not the only person who thinks like this. A recent Javelin study reports that 23% of customers switch banks due to excessive fees. If customers are starting to get wise to the fees they are paying, many retail banks will need to rethink their strategy.
People are not looking to sites like Mint and Wesabe just to see balances. They look to these aggregation sites to help manage their finances. Mint claims that close to 1% of US households use its site. Wesabe does not release exact numbers but claims hundreds of thousands of users. These are significant numbers. I know of banks with over $12 Billion in assets whose internet banking user base is less than half the size of Mint's user base. That makes sense since Mint claims to be tracking over $50 billion in assets for its users. The point is, these are big numbers that represent significant challenges to banks:
- Consumers who use online financial managers do not have to log into their traditional banking sites as often. This dilutes the value of a bank's brand and online services.
- Mint and Wesabe both have features that allow users to identify fees in their account history. Users who identify fees will fight to have them removed (lowering income for the bank, while driving up customer service costs) or leave the bank all together. Thus, people like myself who normally overlook fees will receive notice of the fees they have been overlooking.
- Mint and Wesabe are Free. Free is probably the single biggest reason for banks to fear online account aggregation sites. Free is what allowed these online sites to leap frog Intuit.
Account aggregation sites are really just part of a larger problem for banks. The larger problem is the free economy that exists online. Chris Anderson wrote in the WSJ that:
"..consumers are saving their money and playing free online games, listening to free music on Pandora, canceling basic cable and watching free video on Hulu, and killing their landlines in favor of Skype. It's a consumer's paradise: The Web has become the biggest store in history and everything is 100% off."
As the popularity of alternative channels grow, the value (perceived or real) of banking services will diminish. Why? Because that is the way the internet economy works. Chris Skinner of The Financial Services Blog predicts:
"Just like newspapers, blogs, music and even books and live streaming rock concerts, banking will be free. My payments will be processed for nothing. My loans will be charged at zero margin, as will my savings."
Chris basis his predictions on an assertion put forth by Kevin Kelly :
"Over time the cost per fixed technological function will decrease. If that function persists long enough its costs begin to approach (but never reach) zero. In the goodness of time any particular technological function will exist as if it were free."
Of course there are caveats to this, but the general principle has manifest itself repeatedly over the past few decades. Newspapers can no longer sell subscriptions, music labels can no longer sell CD's, and Red Hat software is increasing profits faster than Microsoft. Retail banking services are headed in the same direction.
The good news for banks is that their Internet Banking sites still offer a totality of services that cannot yet be matched by non banks. I cannot transfer funds, pay bills, or open new accounts inside of Mint. The bad news is non bank sites could provide those services in the near future. Imagine a site that combined Mint's financial services management features with the CD auction features provided by MoneyAisle, money movement services similar to those of PayPal, and loans from a P2P site like that of LendingClub. Throw in a social savings account from SmartyPig and bill payment functionality tied to a decoupled debit card and now you have a full financial services mashup that greatly diminishes the value of the bank that is charging me $10.00 a to hold my money.
Obviously banks will still play a role in the future of retail financial services. But, their value proposition will probably be quite different from what it is today. One thing about the free economy that I neglected to say is that free does not apply to everything. Fees can be had for new ideas and services that add value to a free service. That makes sense because as Kevin asserted costs decrease over time. Meaning, new services do have value. There are free services that people are willing to pay for. I pay an extra fee each year to store extra pictures on my Flickr account. When I find a song that I like, I will pay to download a high quality MP3. I will pay a subscription to access premium news content on the Internet.
To succeed in the free economy, banks must adopt a similar philosophy. Savings account fees are going to drive away customers. Retail Banks of the future will make money by selling their financial expertise, noticing patterns in spending behavior and recommending money saving actions, and by reducing friction by enabling faster payments to merchants, billers, and other customers. Mobile banking also presents a tremendous opportunity for banks to generate fees for premium services. Bank of America claims that it has over 1.8 million active mobile bankers. Mobile users have demonstrated a propensity to pay for premium features. Banks of the future may use their expertise in transaction monitoring and payment and merchant networks to provide premium payment and alerting systems for mobile phones.
The reality is that Banks of the future will probably make money in ways that I have never thought about. The only thing I know for sure is that retail banks will not be making money by charging $10.00 per month for a savings account. To be fair, some banks are trying out alternative ways of garnering fee income. Maybe I will even sign up for it if they refund the last year of $10.00 savings account service fees!

|Tsesarevich of Russia
Alexei in 1913
|12 August 1904
Peterhof Palace, St. Petersburg Governorate, Russian Empire
|17 July 1918 (aged 13)

Alexei Nikolaevich (Russian: Алексе́й Никола́евич) (12 August 1904 [O.S. 30 July] – 17 July 1918) of the House of Romanov, was the last Tsesarevich[note 1] and heir apparent to the throne of the Russian Empire. He was the youngest child and only son of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna. He was born with haemophilia, which was treated by the faith healer Grigori Rasputin.[3]
After the February Revolution of 1917, he and his family were sent into internal exile in Tobolsk, Siberia. Soon after the Bolsheviks took power, he was executed alongside his parents, four sisters, and three retainers during the Russian Civil War by order of the Bolshevik government, though rumors that he had survived persisted until the 2007 discovery of his and one of his sisters' remains. On 17 July 1998, the eightieth anniversary of the execution, his parents and three sisters, along with their faithful retainers, were formally interred in the Cathedral of St. Peter and Paul. Alexei and his sister Maria are still not buried. The family were canonized as passion bearers by the Russian Orthodox Church in 2000.
He is sometimes known to Russian legitimists as Alexei II, as they do not recognize the abdication of his father in favor of his uncle Grand Duke Michael as lawful; however, legitimists also do not recognise the abdication because it was not published by the Imperial Senate, as required by law.[4]

Early years[edit]
Alexei was born on 12 August [O.S. 30 July] 1904 in Peterhof Palace, St. Petersburg Governorate, Russian Empire. He was the youngest of five children and the only son born to Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra Feodorovna. His older sisters were the Grand Duchesses Olga, Tatiana, Maria and Anastasia. He was doted on by his parents and sisters and known as "Baby" in the family. He was later also affectionately referred to as Alyosha (Алёша).
Alexei was christened on 3 September 1904 in the chapel in Peterhof Palace. His principal godparents were his paternal grandmother and his great-uncle, Grand Duke Alexei Alexandrovich. His other godparents included his oldest sister, Olga; his great-grandfather King Christian IX of Denmark; King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, the Prince of Wales and William II, German Emperor. As Russia was at war with Japan, all active soldiers and officers of the Russian Army and Navy were named honorary godfathers.[5]
The christening marked the first time some of the younger members of the Imperial Family, including some of the younger sons of Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich, as well as the Grand Duchesses Olga and Tatiana, and their cousin Princess Irina Alexandrovna, were present at an official ceremony. For the occasion, the boys wore miniature military uniforms, and the girls wore a smaller version of the court dress and little kokoshniks.[6] The sermon was delivered by John of Kronstadt, and the baby was carried to the font by the elderly Mistress of the Robes, Princess Maria Mikhailovna Galitzine. As a precaution, she had rubber soles put to her shoes to avoid falling and dropping him. Countess Sophie Buxhoeveden recalled:
The baby lay on a pillow of cloth of gold, slung to the Princess's shoulders by a broad gold band. He was covered with the heavy cloth-of-gold mantle, lined with ermine, worn by the heir to the crown. The mantle was supported on one side by Prince Alexander Sergeiovich Dolgorouky, the Grand Marshal of the Court, and on the other by Count [Paul] Benckendorff, as decreed by custom and wise precaution. The baby wept loudly, as might any ordinary baby, when old Father Yanishev dipped him in the font. His four small sisters, in short Court dresses, gazed open-eyed at the ceremony, Olga Nicholaevna, then nine years old, being in the important position of one of the godmothers. According to Russian custom, the Emperor and Empress were not present at the baptism, but directly after the ceremony the Emperor went to the church. Both he and the Empress always confessed to feeling very nervous on these occasions, for fear that the Princess might slip, or that Father Yanishev, who was very old, might drop the baby in the font.[7]
Alexei inherited hemophilia from his mother Alexandra, a condition that could be traced back to her maternal grandmother Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. In 2009 genetic analysis determined specifically that he suffered from hemophilia B.[8][9] He had to be careful not to injure himself because he lacked factor IX, one of the proteins necessary for blood-clotting. According to his French tutor, Pierre Gilliard, the nature of his illness was kept a state secret. His hemophilia was so severe that trivial injuries such as a bruise, a nosebleed or a cut were potentially life-threatening. Two navy sailors were assigned to him to monitor and supervise him to prevent injuries, which were still unavoidable. They also carried him around when he was unable to walk. As well as being a source of constant torment to his parents, the recurring episodes of illness and long recoveries interfered greatly with Alexei's education.
In September 1912 the Romanovs were visiting their hunting retreat in the Białowieża Forest; on 5 September the young Tsesarevich jumped into a rowboat and hit one of the oarlocks. A large bruise appeared within minutes. Within a week the hematoma reduced in size.[10] In mid September the family moved to Spała (then in Russian Poland). On 2 October, after a drive in the woods, the "juddering of the carriage had caused still healing hematoma in his upper thigh to rupture and start bleeding again."[11] Alexei had to be carried out in an almost unconscious state. His temperature rose and his heartbeat dropped, caused by a swelling in the left groin; Alexandra barely left his bedside. A constant record was kept of the boy's temperature. On 10 October, a medical bulletin appeared in the newspapers,[12] and Alexei received the last sacrament. His condition improved at once, according to the Tsar. According to Nelipa, Robert K. Massie was correct to suggest that psychological factors do play a part.[13] The positive trend continued throughout the next day.[14] (It is not exactly clear on which day, either 9,[15] 10 or 11 October the Tsarina turned to her lady-in-waiting and best friend, Anna Vyrubova,[16][17] to secure the help of the peasant healer Rasputin, who at that time was out of favor.) According to his daughter, Rasputin received the telegram on 12 October[note 2] and the next day he responded,[19] with a short telegram, including the prophecy: "The little one will not die. Do not allow the doctors [c.q. Eugene Botkin and Vladimir Derevenko] to bother him too much."[20] On 19 October his condition was considerably better and the hematoma disappeared, but Alexei had to undergo orthopedic therapy to straighten his left leg.[21]
According to Gilliard,
The Tsar had resisted the influence of Rasputin for a long time. At the beginning he had tolerated him because he dare not weaken the Tsarina's faith in him – a faith which kept her alive. He did not like to send him away for, if Alexei Nicolaievich had died, in the eyes of the mother he would have been the murderer of his own son.[22]
There are various explanations for Rasputin's ability, such as that Rasputin hypnotized Alexei, administered herbs to him, or that his advice to the Tsarina not to let the doctors bother Alexei too much aided the boy's healing. Others speculated that, with the information he got from his confidante at the court, lady-in-waiting Anna Vyrubova, Rasputin timed his interventions for when Alexei was on the road to recovery anyway, and claimed all the credit. Court physician Botkin believed that Rasputin was a charlatan and his apparent healing powers arose from his use of hypnosis, but Rasputin was not interested in this practice before 1913 and his teacher Gerasim Papandato was expelled from St. Petersburg.[23][24] Felix Yusupov, one of Rasputin's enemies, suggested that he secretly drugged Alexei[25] with Tibetan herbs which he got from quack doctor Peter Badmayev, but these drugs were politely rejected by the court.[26][27] For Maria Rasputin, it was magnetism.[28] For Greg King, these explanations fail to take into account those times when Rasputin healed the boy, despite being 2600 km (1650 miles) away. For Fuhrmann, these ideas on hypnosis and drugs flourished because the Imperial Family lived such isolated lives.[29] ("They lived almost as much apart from Russian society as if they were settlers in Canada."[29][30]) For Moynahan, "There is no evidence that Rasputin ever summoned up spirits, or felt the need to; he won his admirers through force of personality, not by tricks."[31] For Shelley, the secret of his power lay in the sense of calm, gentle strength, and shining warmth of conviction.[32] Radzinsky believed he truly possessed a supernatural healing ability or that his prayers to God saved the boy.[33]
Gilliard,[34] the French historian Hélène Carrère d'Encausse[35] and Diarmuid Jeffreys, a journalist, speculated Rasputin's healing practice included halting the administration of aspirin, a pain-relieving analgesic available since 1899.[36] Aspirin is an antiaggregant and has blood-thinning properties; it prevents clotting, and promotes bleeding which could have caused the hemarthrosis. The "wonder drug" would have worsened Alexei's joints' swelling and pain.[37][38]
Alexei and his sisters were taught to view Rasputin as "Our Friend" and to exchange confidences with him. Alexei was well aware that he might not live to adulthood. When he was ten, his older sister Olga found him lying on his back looking at the clouds and asked him what he was doing. "I like to think and wonder," Alexei replied. Olga asked him what he liked to think about. "Oh, so many things," the boy responded. "I enjoy the sun and the beauty of summer as long as I can. Who knows whether one of these days I shall not be prevented from doing it?"[39]
According to his French tutor, Pierre Gilliard, Alexei was a simple, affectionate child, but his environment was spoiling him by the "servile flattery" of the servants and "silly adulations" of the people around him. Once, a deputation of peasants came to bring presents to Alexei. His personal attendant the sailor Derevenko, required they kneel before Alexei. Gilliard remarked that the Tsarevich was "embarrassed and blushed violently", and when asked if he liked seeing people on their knees before him, he said, "Oh no, but Derevenko says it must be so!" When Gilliard encouraged Alexei to "stop Derevenko insisting on it", he replied that he "dare not". When Gilliard took the matter up with Derevenko, he said that Alexei was "delighted to be freed from this irksome formality".[40]
"Alexei was the center of this united family, the focus of all its hopes and affections," wrote Gilliard. "His sisters worshipped him. He was his parents' pride and joy. When he was well, the palace was transformed. Everyone and everything in it seemed bathed in sunshine."[41] He bore a striking resemblance to his mother, and was tall for his age, with "a long, finely chiseled face, delicate features, auburn hair with a coppery glint, and large grey-blue eyes like his mother,"[42] Though intelligent and affectionate, his education was frequently interrupted by bouts of haemophilia and he was spoiled because his parents couldn't bear to discipline him. His parents appointed two sailors from the Imperial Navy: Petty Officer Andrei Derevenko and his assistant Seaman Klementy Nagorny,[43] to serve as nannies and to follow him about so he would not hurt himself. He was prohibited from riding a bicycle or playing too roughly, but was naturally active.
As a small child, he occasionally played pranks on guests. One example occurred at a formal dinner party, where Alexei removed the shoe of a female guest from under the table, and showed it to his father. Nicholas sternly told the boy to return the "trophy", which Alexei did after placing a large ripe strawberry into the toe of the shoe.[44]
Gilliard eventually convinced Alexei's parents that granting the boy greater autonomy would help him develop better self-control. A growing Alexei took advantage of his unaccustomed freedom, and began to outgrow some of his earlier foibles.[45] Courtiers reported that his illness made him sensitive to the hurts of others.[46] During World War I, he lived with his father at army headquarters in Mogilev for long stretches of time and observed military life.[47] Alexei became one of the first Boy Scouts in Russia.[48][49][50][51]
In December 1916, Major-General Sir John Hanbury-Williams, head of the British military at Stavka, received word of the death of his son in action with the British Expeditionary Force in France. Tsar Nicholas sent twelve-year-old Alexei to sit with the grieving father. "Papa told me to come sit with you as he thought you might feel lonely tonight," Alexei told the general.[52] Alexei, like all the Romanov men, grew up wearing sailor uniforms and playing at war from the time he was a toddler. His father began to prepare him for his future role as Tsar by inviting Alexei to sit in on long meetings with government ministers.[46]
The Tsar's Colonel Mordinov remembered Alexei:
He had what we Russians usually call "a golden heart." He easily felt an attachment to people, he liked them and tried to do his best to help them, especially when it seemed to him that someone was unjustly hurt. His love, like that of his parents, was based mainly on pity. Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich was an awfully lazy, but very capable boy (I think, he was lazy precisely because he was capable), he easily grasped everything, he was thoughtful and keen beyond his years ... Despite his good nature and compassion, he undoubtedly promised to possess a firm and independent character in the future.[53]
During World War I, Alexei joined his father at Stavka, when his father became the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Army in 1915. Alexei seemed to like military life very much and became very playful and energetic. In one of his father's notes to his mother, he said "…Have come in from the garden with wet sleeves and boots as Alexei sprayed us at the fountain. It is his favorite game…peals of laughter ring out. I keep an eye, in order to see that things do not go too far." Alexei even ate the soldiers' black bread, and refused when he was offered a meal that he would eat in his palace, saying "It's not what soldiers eat". In December 1915, Rasputin was invited to see Alexei when the 11-year-old boy was accidentally thrown against the window of a train and his nose began to bleed.
In 1916, he was given the title of Lance Corporal, which he was very proud of. Alexei's favorites were the foreigners of Belgium, Britain, France, Japan, Italy, and Serbia, and in favor, adopted him as their mascot. Hanbury-Williams, whom Alexei liked, wrote: "As time went on and his shyness wore off he treated us like old friends and… had always some bit fun with us. With me it was to make sure that each button on my coat was properly fastened, a habit which naturally made me take great care to have one or two unbuttoned, in which case he used to at once to stop and tell me that I was 'untidy again,' give a sigh at my lack of attention to these details and stop and carefully button me up again."
Imprisonment of the Imperial family[edit]
The imperial family was arrested following the February Revolution of 1917, which resulted in the abdication of Nicholas II. When he was in captivity at Tobolsk, Alexei complained in his diary that he was "bored" and begged God to have "mercy" on him. He was permitted to play occasionally with Kolya, the son of one of his doctors, and with a kitchen boy named Leonid Sednev. As he became older, Alexei seemed to tempt fate and injure himself on purpose. While in Siberia, he rode a sled down the stairs of the prison house and injured himself in the groin. The hemorrhage was very bad, and he was so ill that he could not be moved immediately when the Bolsheviks relocated his parents and older sister Maria to Yekaterinburg in April 1918. Alexei and his three other sisters joined the rest of the family weeks later.[54] He was confined to a wheelchair for the remaining weeks of his life.
The Tsarevich was less than a month shy of his fourteenth birthday when he was executed on 17 July 1918 in the cellar room of the Ipatiev House in Yekaterinburg (which may also spelled as: Ekaterinburg). The assassination was carried out by forces of the Bolshevik secret police under Yakov Yurovsky. According to one account of the execution, the family was told to get up and get dressed in the middle of the night because they were going to be moved. Nicholas II carried Alexei to the cellar room. His mother asked for chairs to be brought so that she and Alexei could sit down. When the family and their servants were settled, Yurovsky announced that they were to be executed. The firing squad first killed Nicholas, the Tsarina, and the two male servants. Alexei remained sitting in the chair, "terrified," before the assassins turned on him and shot at him repeatedly. The boy remained alive and the killers tried to stab him multiple times with bayonets. "Nothing seemed to work," wrote Yurovsky later. "Though injured, he continued to live." Unbeknownst to the killing squad, the Tsarevich's torso was protected by a shirt wrapped in precious gems that he wore beneath his tunic. Finally Yurovsky fired two shots into the boy's head, and he fell silent.[55]
For decades (until all the bodies were found and identified, see below) conspiracy theorists suggested that one or more of the family somehow survived the slaughter. Several people claimed to be surviving members of the Romanov family following the assassinations. People who have pretended to be the Tsarevich include: Alexei Poutziato, Joseph Veres, Heino Tammet, Michael Goleniewski and Vassili Filatov. However, scientists considered it extremely unlikely that he escaped death, due to his lifelong hemophilia.
2007 remains found and 2008 identification of remains[edit]
On 23 August 2007, a Russian archaeologist announced the discovery of two burned, partial skeletons at a bonfire site near Yekaterinburg that appeared to match the site described in Yurovsky's memoirs. The archaeologists said the bones are from a boy who was roughly between the ages of ten and thirteen years at the time of his death and of a young woman who was roughly between the ages of eighteen and twenty-three years old.[56] Anastasia was seventeen years, one month old at the time of the assassination, while Maria was nineteen years, one month old. Alexei was two weeks shy of his fourteenth birthday. Alexei's elder sisters, Olga and Tatiana, were twenty-two and twenty-one years old, respectively, at the time of the assassination. Along with the remains of the two bodies, archaeologists found "shards of a container of sulfuric acid, nails, metal strips from a wooden box, and bullets of various caliber." The bones were found using metal detectors and metal rods as probes. Also, striped material was found that appeared to have been from a blue-and-white striped cloth; Alexei commonly wore a blue-and-white striped undershirt.
On 30 April 2008, Russian forensic scientists announced that DNA testing had proven that the remains belong to the Tsarevich Alexei and to one of his sisters.[57] DNA information, made public in July 2008, that was obtained from the Yekaterinburg site and repeated independent testing by laboratories such as the University of Massachusetts Medical School revealed that the final two missing Romanov remains were indeed authentic and that the entire Romanov family lived in the Ipatiev House. In March 2009, results of the DNA testing were published, confirming that the two bodies discovered in 2007 were those of Tsarevich Alexei and one of his sisters.[58][59]
In 2000, Alexei and his family were canonized as passion bearers by the Russian Orthodox Church. The family had previously been canonized in 1981 by the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad as holy martyrs. The bodies of Tsar Nicholas II, Tsarina Alexandra, and three of their daughters were finally interred at St. Peter and Paul Cathedral in St. Petersburg on 17 July 1998—eighty years after they were executed.
Alexei's remains, so as to be with those of his family, remain unburied due to the insistence of the Russian Orthodox Church on more DNA-testing.[60]
Historical significance[edit]
This section needs additional citations for verification. (August 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Alexei was the heir to the Romanov Throne. Paul I had passed laws forbidding women to succeed to the throne (unless there were no legitimate male dynasts left, in which case, the throne would pass to the closest female relative of the last Tsar). This was done in revenge for what he perceived to be the illegal behavior of his mother, Catherine II ("the Great") in deposing his father Peter III.
Nicholas II was forced to abdicate on 15 March [O.S. 2 March] 1917. He did this in favour of his twelve-year-old son Alexei who ascended the throne under a regency. Nicholas later decided to alter his original abdication. Whether that act had any legal validity is open to speculation. Nicholas consulted with doctors and others present and realised that he would have to be separated from Alexei. Not wanting Alexei to be parted from the family, Nicholas altered the abdication document in favour of his younger brother Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich of Russia. After receiving advice about whether his personal security could be guaranteed, Michael declined to accept the throne without the people's approval through an election held by the proposed Constituent Assembly; no such referendum was ever held.[61]
Alexei's haemophilia was integral to the rise of Grigori Rasputin. One of the many things Rasputin did that unintentionally facilitated the fall of the Romanovs was to tell the Tsar that the war would be won once he (Tsar Nicholas II) took command of the Russian Army. Following this advice was a serious mistake as the Tsar had no military experience. The Tsarina, Empress Alexandra, a deeply religious woman, came to rely upon Rasputin and believe in his ability to help Alexei where conventional doctors had failed. This theme is explored in Robert K. Massie's Nicholas and Alexandra.
Caring for Alexei seriously diverted the attention of his father, Nicholas II, and the rest of the Romanovs from the business of war and government.[62]
Tsarevich Alexei Island (Russian: Остров Цесаревича Алексея), later renamed Maly Taymyr, was named in honour of the Tsarevich of Russia by the 1913 Arctic Ocean Hydrographic Expedition led by Boris Vilkitsky on behalf of the Russian Hydrographic Service.[63]

Problems with the way your teeth fit together occur in many different ways. Some bite problems cause discomfort or even pain, and that pain can masquerade as problems that you would not readily associate with your teeth. Some bite problems can cause major damage to your teeth without producing any obvious discomfort.
There are some pretty simple ways that anyone can detect TMJ when a problem with the bite is causing or at least contributing to pain or discomfort.
The clench test: With your mouth empty so there is nothing between your teeth to bite on, close your teeth together and squeeze hard. If clenching your teeth together causes any sign of discomfort in any tooth, you have a disharmony in your bite.
Teeth that are sensitive to cold often get that way from the extra pounding they take if any part of that tooth strikes before the rest of the teeth contact during closure. Use the clench test to see if the extra sensitivity is related to an uneven bite. Squeeze hard. If you can make any tooth hurt by empty mouth clenching, the bite is probably the main reason for the sensitivity. This is a good way to find out if a new filling or crown is "high." If it hurts when you clench, it is probably not in perfect harmony with a correct bite. You should be able to bite hard and grind your teeth together in all directions without feeling discomfort in any tooth if your bite is perfect. The exception to this is if you have advanced periodontal disease, you may have several teeth that can't accept firm biting, but even then, you should not normally feel pain in a single tooth when biting.
If biting hard causes pain or discomfort in the jaw joint, (you may feel it just in front of your ear), you can suspect a possible relationship between your bite and a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) problem. It may be associated with a structural disorder in your TMJ, but more often the pain is coming from certain muscles that move your jaw joints to accommodate a bite that is not in harmony with your TMJs. Your dentist should be able to diagnose the exact source of the pain.
Look for severe wear on your teeth, as this is another sign that your bite is not in harmony. If you have worn all the enamel off the biting edges of your teeth, you will see a darker colored surface. This is dentin and it will wear down seven times faster than the much harder enamel that you've already worn through. So ask your dentist to evaluate what is causing so much wear. This wear can be especially damaging when it is on your front teeth, so if you notice your lower front teeth have worn down to dentin, have your bite checked. Better yet, don't wait till all the enamel is gone. Schedule a visit to your dentist office. Correcting your bite may stop or at least slow down the wear process.

I'm proud to offer you laser dentistry for the treatment of many types of cavities. The laser works by emitting a specialized light that targets and destroys dental decay.
Drills are very powerful, and the vibration and the large hole produced can cause discomfort, making some type of anesthesia almost always necessary. With a laser, the light works to destroy and remove decay with no uncomfortable tooth vibration and resulting discomfort. Because the laser is so precise, the decayed part of the tooth often can be selectively removed, leaving a more healthy part of the tooth. Rather than that loud drilling sound, you hear only a gentle tapping.
Laser treatment has proven to be appropriate and safe in over tens of thousands of applications throughout the world, and works well for young children as well as adults. Laser of technology allows us to take the fear out of going to the dentist and gets the patient actively involved in their own dental care.

Article Title
This Article addresses what the Author believes are "myths" of the large firm legal practice. The author argues that the path to "partner" at a large firm provides neither a path nor anything that resembles a real partnership. The Article addresses four reasons to support this statement. The author believes that attaining partnership brings a person to a position where they still work many hours, do not receive a big elevation in status, have no sense of tenure, and must have a very large book of business. The Authors believes that it is not young associates who will be wanted for partnerships, but instead the so-called lateral partner. They Article concludes by noting what this new path means for the legal profession as a whole.

At the core of all resistance is a deep longing.
There's something that you want. And you want it bad. But you're afraid to let yourself really want it because you imagine that you will be disappointed. You don't think you can bear the disappointment. You can't see anything on the horizon BUT disappointment.
So you dig in your heels in terms of taking any action at all.
Resistance also has what I call a Crappy Crystal Ball. It predicts the future, but it's always a NEGATIVE future filled with horrors and terrors and suckiness.
The CCB tells you that what you want to create or achieve or accomplish is going to be too hard, too frustrating, too impossible. So why even bother.
Resistance hijacks your capacity to imagine, but it never imagines anything GOOD.
However there is a secret to understanding resistance. Underneath resistance is ALWAYS a whole lot of excitement masked by fear. Resistance is actually the souls code telling you precisely what you need to do next on your creative journey. It's a clue to how to access your full-on creative aliveness.
Knowing how to decipher the true meaning of that code actually gives you the exact OPPOSITE message of the Crappy Crystal Ball.
So if some part of you is resisting something it's a pretty sure bet that is EXACTLY the place you need to be heading towards. The more the resistance the more you REALLY want the thing you are resisting with such gusto!
Resistance is another face of fear and fear always wants us to keep still. To stay where we are. Frozen, paralyzed and unmoving.
The magic-potion antidote for fear AND to resistance is taking action. No matter how small. Once you make a move of any kind the spell of the resistance will be often be broken.
So throw away that crappy crystal ball. Take ONE eensy-weensy, tiny step forward. And watch the resistance begin to magically melt away.
Until, of course, it arises again. And you can be guaranteed it WILL rise again. But NOW you know exactly what to do when that happens.
My dear creative pal Andrea Schroeder and I are offering an online webinar class to support you in gaining skills and tools to help you move through YOUR dance with resistance with greater ease and flow on Tuesday, August 23rd from 11 AM- 3 PM PST. And the cost is only $37!!

Budget 2016: Osborne to Fund New Transport Routes
It has been revealed by the Treasury that Chancellor George Osborne will, in his next budget announcement on Wednesday, announce plans to fund a new rail route across the capital as well as a high speed line linking Manchester and Leeds and a trans-Pennine tunnel.
Bold Decisions and Big Investments
Fresh off the back of news that he will have to make £4bn in cuts in order to plug a gap in the country's economy, Osborne will announce plans to implement two new "transformative" rail routes in London and the North, as well as funding for motorways in the North-West as part of his 'Northern Powerhouse Initiative'. Total initial funding for the planning of the new rail and road routes around the North is expected to total around £300 million.
"With the difficulties we see in the global economy" he said, "we have got to make Britain fit for the future. Now is the time to make the bold decisions and the big investments that will help us to lead the world in infrastructure and create jobs, push up living standards and boost our productivity for the next generation. That's what my budget this week sets out to do."
Crossrail 2
The first of these routes, the new Crossrail 2, will be a high speed underground line, linking the north and south of London. With an estimated cost of £27 billion, Crossrail 2 will cost almost twice the amount of its predecessor which, when it opens in 2018, will be renamed the Elizabeth Line, in honour of our longest serving monarch.
Crossrail 2 is expected to help create some 200,000 new jobs and will connect Surrey and Hertfordshire though tunnels under the capital.
Osborne will put forward £80 million (with the expectation that Transport for London will do the same) in order to develop plans for Crossrail 2. The hope is that the necessary legislation will be in place by 2020 and that the route itself will then be completed by 2033, though these dates are far from set in stone.
The next, the High Speed 3 rail route, will link Manchester and Leeds through the Pennines and will have trains travelling at 140mph, cutting down journey times between the two Northern cities by around a third, with the aim of it ultimately dropping down to 30 minutes.
Both of the transport links will be part of a general bid to improve infrastructure in the country and come following recommendations from the National Infrastructure Committee. The NIC is led by Lord Adonis, a former Labour peer, who praised the HS3 plans as an essential part of the plan to bring up the north of the country, turning it into a true "powerhouse".
He said: "If the North is to become a powerhouse, it has to be better connected. Leeds and Manchester are just 40 miles apart but there is no quick and easy way to travel between the two. In rush hour, it can take more than two hours by car; by train it can almost be an hour."
He went on: "A better connected North will be better for jobs, better for families and better for Britain, the work should begin as quickly as possible."
The exact route for HS3 is yet to be decided, but the high speed link between Manchester and Leeds it likely to form part of a longer route between Liverpool and Hull, linking the north-east of the country to the north-west. Osborne will put forward £60 million to help fund final plans for HS3.
There is also talk of a trans-Pennine rail tunnel linking Manchester and Sheffield, plans for which will be elaborated by Osborne on Wednesday.
The HS3 plans are not expected to generate quite the same level of controversy that the expensive and, by some accounts, dangerous HS2 route linking London and Manchester. The HS2 route, expected to be finished around 2033, has an estimated total cost of between £45 billion and £80 billion (according to figures from the Department for Transport and the Institute of Economic Affairs respectively).
Northern Powerhouse
Further improving the transport infrastructure in the North will involve plans to invest in motorways around the North-West as well as through the Pennines. The trans-Pennine tunnel would be, if created, the longest road tunnel in Europe, and would sharply reduce journey times between Manchester and Sheffield.
This would complete Osborne's 'Northern Powerhouse Initiative', although questions have been raised regarding how far the proposed £300 million investment will actually go, given the staggering costs of the various constituent parts of the plans. Costs for HS3 alone are estimated to be between £6 and £15 billion, depending on the exact route and scale of the project.
The Treasury has also been somewhat unclear as to exactly where the £300 million will go; while official statements suggest that initial funding will be going just towards planning costs, some sources cited by the Guardian are claiming that it would go directly towards "kickstart[ing] the work".
Further infrastructure-based changes likely to be announced in the Budget include the pledging of £1.2 billion towards to building of more starter homes on various brownfield sites across the country, in a bid to make good on the government's promise to build 200,000 affordable housing units by the end of the current parliament.
Changes to income tax are also likely, with the personal allowance increasing as well as the income bracket for the 40% tax rate.

In an interesting move, Intel has announced that it will be buying the security software firm McAfee for $7.68 billion. This acquisition comes close on the heels of McAfee's acquisition of tenCube – the developer of WaveSecure.
At first glance this might appear to be a strange acquisition, given that Intel is mainly a hardware manufacturer, whereas McAfee is a software developer. However, as Intel goes on to explain in the following statement, McAfee will help Intel in its goal of providing on-chip security.
The acquisition reflects that security is now a fundamental component of online computing. Today's security approach does not fully address the billions of new Internet-ready devices connecting, including mobile and wireless devices, TVs, cars, medical devices and ATM machines as well as the accompanying surge in cyber threats. Providing protection to a diverse online world requires a fundamentally new approach involving software, hardware and services.
The price offered by Intel amounts to $48 per share, which is a 60% premium on the value of McAfee's stock. Intel obviously wants McAfee pretty desperately, since McAfee hasn't traded at the quoted price since 1999. The acquisition will make McAfee a wholly owned subsidiary of Intel and is expected to be finalized after shareholder approval, regulatory clearances and other customary conditions specified in the agreement.

Missed a chance to get in on this week's action? Next week could be even more exciting, Cramer said.
On Friday's Game Plan, Cramer advised Homegamers to take a moment this weekend to make a shopping list by writing down the companies – not the stocks – they want to own a piece of along with the price they would be willing to pay. Take ConocoPhillips , Cramer's favorite oil name. Last week COP hit $69. Two days later it was at $76. Without a list and a price ready, it would have been easy to hold off buying until COP went lower than $69. But it never did.
So what could be next week's Conoco? Cramer recommended Procter & Gamble , down 12 points from its high and a great place to start a position, he said. There's also Altria at $73 with a 4.25% yield, less than a week from announcing plans it intends to split up. How about AT&T, with a 5% yield at $35?
With the Fed catching on (better late than never), some banks and homebuilders are back in play. Bear Stearns , which Cramer thinks could get taken over, is starting to look attractive down 16 points to $70. There's also Wells Fargo at $30 with a 5% yield. And now that the government changed the rules making it easier to get mortgage money, Toll Brothers down at $16 is even looking good to Cramer.
The time is also right to buy Schering-Plough , he said. Shares of the drug company have been virtually cut in half on what he called "overstated" headline risk about its flagship cholesterol drug Vytorin. And in Cramer's experience, the best time to buy drug stocks is right after the bad headlines. Think Bausch & Lomb with its contact solution or Bristol-Myers Squib with Plavix.
Down 50% from its high, with a CEO buying shares hand-over-fist, SGP is Cramer's definitive pick for next week – Fed cut or not.
Jim's charitable trust owns Schering-Plough and Altria.

A move towards activism for the Spanish fragrance market
Aug 30, 2019 | By Maria Florencia Ameneiros
Jan 08, 2018
As A/W 17/18 comes to a close, data from Instock, WGSN's retail analytics platform, points to key messages and shifts in consumer demand. Here are the five things you need to know as you plan for the year ahead.
Retailers have reduced new-in volumes (-1.62% YOY) to control excess stock levels, but that hasn't made a dent in overall volumes (+2.34% YOY). There is little doubt that shopper spend is moving towards experiences and lifestyle; and as a result retailers are fighting for a share of an ever-decreasing clothing pie.
YOY out-of-stocks have stayed stable despite markdowns jumping YOY. UK consumers are already strategic shoppers conditioned after years of low economic growth and volatile socio-political climate to prioritise value for money, so price alone is no longer the differentiating factor. Brands winning out are those that have distinctive service propositions (ASOS, boohoo) or those with a distinct design signature (Joules, Ted Baker), indicating that shoppers are thinking deeper about value for money. Accordingly, having a clearly communicated and distinctive product point of view (quality-driven such as at Arket or choice and service driven such as at ASOS) must be the norm.
In A/W 17/18, outerwear drops moved closer to season (peaking in October, as opposed to September in 2016) to compensate for weather volatility; and as a result – more shoppers bought into full-price outerwear. Average price of out-of-stocks for both jackets and coats jumped YOY. With this clear impact on margins, retailers will benefit from applying a similar approach to season-specific summer categories. Being responsive, flexible and agile with merchandising will be key to achieving this.
Sustainability is no longer a niche concern – high-profile high-street retailers such as H&M and Zara have expanded sustainable collections, Selfridges has incorporated a 'buying better' online segment, while Gucci and Michael Kors have banned the use of fur – which is no doubt a reaction to changing customer perceptions – as shoppers think deeper about the impact of fashion consumption on the environment around us. Consumers have become ever more vocal about their concerns regarding sustainable issues, making it imperative for retailers to offer visibility over their material procurement and apparel production practices. In addition, as shoppers think deeply about value for money, sustainability will increasingly emerge as a core concern.
The outperforming styles of A/W 17/18 point to a perceptible shift in consumer desire. Tired of socio-political doom & gloom, consumers are increasingly desiring cheerful, optimistic joyful products – as evidenced in high demand for details and products such as sequins, muppet-esque teddy jackets, the joyous return of the Christmas jumper, and the growing popularity of Gucci's maximalist design aesthetic. This sentiment will continue into 2018, and retailers must tap into it via products such as sparkly footwear (think Victoria Beckham's S/S 18 pumps), color-blocked knitwear and maximalist styling.

Reviewed By Carmen C (China Grove, NC) Reviewed for a 1999 Mazda B-Series —6/7/2015 9:43 AM
Was tired of riding to Lowe's to pick up some home construction materials and then having the ride home with the front of the truck in the air and the back almost dragging. Only took 3 to 4 bags of quickrete and that is what I got. Also have driven the truck as a single passenger since 1999 so the left side of the truck set lower than the right. The air lift system has resolved both of these issues. I put 5 lbs in the right hand side and about 12 lbs in the left for normal driving. Rides good!

Tv Talks Networks, 5 August 20155 August 2015
Actress Ankita Bhargava will reportedly be present on the sets of TV show 'Ye Hai Mohabbatein' to witness the shooting of the consummation scene between the show's lead pair -- her husband and actor Karan Patel and actress Divyanka Tripathi. The production house will shoot the romantic sequence on 4th August, and it will be aired on 6th August on Star Plus channel. While Divyanka had already laid special rules to be followed during filming of the scenes, Karan's wife will hover around the sets and keep an eye on the intimate scenes. "After hearing about the consummation scene from Karan, Ankita made it a point to be present for the same. We have ensured that there are very limited numbers of people on the sets, including the crew. The scene is a high point in the show, and only selected people are going to work on it," said a source close to the production house. Divyanka, who has always maintained her traditional look in the show, will don an off-shoulder gown for the scene. maintained her traditional look in the show, will don an off-shoulder gown for the scene.

Body Wrap Bride Shapewear
Quick View Of The Body Wrap Bride Shapewear Range:
Body Wrap Bride Shapewear is the prettiest shapewear collection I have seen. Everything comes in either brilliant white or a soft, pale ivory and the material feels expensive and has a lovely lace print on it. The garments are made from strong, seamless compression fabric so they really do pack a punch with their firm slimming and shaping control. I do think that lots of thought has been put in to designing the shapewear to suit brides and their dresses and there should be something for everyone in this range. You can go for the minimum option of only tummy shaping with the high waisted thong right up to the full works with the slimming bodysuit with optional, multiway, adjustable straps.

Teesta river is 414 km long with a total catchment area of 12,159 km2. Teesta basin is home to around 30 million people, 2% in Sikkim, 27% in West Bengal; and 71% in northwest Bangladesh of which 78% are rural and 22% urban. Sikkim is mountainous with very low population density, whereas West Bengal has a mix of low hills and plains, and in Bangladesh the terrain is almost flat. There are two large barrages on Teesta that diverts water for mainly irrigation purpose: one at Gajoldobha in India and the other at Duani in Bangladesh
The key objective of the joint meeting was to synergize the efforts of institutions and individuals affiliated to the Upper Indus Basin Network (UIB-N) and the Indus Forum (IF) to generate and share knowledge on adaptation, climate, the cryosphere, water, and hazards and vulnerability; and support national governments in developing evidence-based policies to serve inhabitants of the Indus Basin

In the one hundred and ninety-fourth Olympiad; the seven hundred and fifty-second year from the foundation of the city of Rome. The forty-second year of the reign of Octavian Augustus; the whole world being at peace, Jesus Christ, eternal God and Son of the eternal Father, desiring to sanctify the world by his most merciful coming, being conceived by the Holy Spirit, and nine months having passed since his conception, was born in Bethlehem of Judea of the Virgin Mary. Today is the nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ according to the flesh. –Kalends of Christmas Day, from the Mass at Midnight
It is hard to write about Advent or Christmas. It is hard to come up with something that has not already been said. What I am about to say has been said elsewhere and said better. But I will say it anyhow.
In Jesus, the Word does not only take flesh. The Word takes on a biography, a story with a thousand characters and details. It is the same litany of particulars that make me into Justin, or you into yourself.
For example, God takes on a lineage: ancestors with a legacy. Sometimes the legacy is proud. Those ancestors founded a nation. Sometimes it is injured. They were humiliated and exiled from their home.
God takes on a birthplace and an era, emerging into time in the hardscrabble hills of first-century Palestine, under the steel-toed boot of an exploitative foreign occupier. God takes on a face. The face is Middle Eastern and brown.
God takes on a mother. At first, she was that most stigmatized kind of mother, an unmarried teenager. God also takes on a stepfather, a guardian. At first, the guardian just wants to get out of there, because the whole thing is too much. But being a "just man," he thinks better of it and stays, teaching God how to work with wood and tools and hands. So God grows up amid this family dynamic and learns from it, while working with wood and tools and hands.
God makes friends. They are blunt-spoken fishermen, dirt farmers, prostitutes, and outcasts. They are not lawyers, intelligentsia, or clergy.
The women in the group understand God better than the men. This should be as obvious to us as it was to God. The male Gospel writers admit as much when they list those who stayed at the foot of the cross (women), recount those who bolted away on Good Friday once their hillbilly accents were identified (men), and note how Mary Magdalene (a woman) was the first to see the risen Lord.
God takes on a religion. At times, this religion is high-minded in its pursuit of justice and peace. At other times, the religion is petty and small, lost in ritual and detail. God must sort through it all, as we ourselves do.
God takes on local people to defend: the poor, the women, the fishermen, everyone wedged under the occupying boot. God therefore takes on local enemies, who resent any disruption to their convenience. Some of them are the sort who today would endorse waterboarding. Others are the sort who today would make archbishop.
Knowing how dangerous these enemies are, knowing there is no time to waste, God works fast and travels light: three years from start to finish, no permanent residence, no possessions.
This collection of particulars determined everything about what God did in Jesus, what God meant in Jesus, and who God was in Jesus: all of the form, all of the substance, all of the impact. And as it was then, so it is now. As with Jesus, so with us.
We wait this Advent and Christmas. We wait for much of our lives. We wonder how God is once again to be born. The temptation for some of us, and I have experienced such temptation, might be to run off to some faraway place, to take some dramatic action that is inorganic or out of character, or just to keep waiting…for too long.
We don't need to. Look again at your ancestors, your neighborhood, your family, your friends, your traditions, the local people who need you, the local overlords, the time ticking away on your own wristwatch. God is incarnating in the midst of the reality you are living right now. God will not incarnate anywhere else.
