Founded as Dental Implant Innovations® Inc. ("3i") on May 27, 1987 by Dr. Richard Lazzara, a periodontist, and Keith Beaty, an engineer, the company has grown to 1,000 employees with its global headquarters located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. BIOMET 3i is recognized for its cutting-edge product innovations in the development of biologically driven implants; winning worldwide acclaim for the microtextured surface of the OSSEOTITE® Implant, which has more than 15 years of documented research. More recently, BIOMET 3i introduced the 3i T3® Implant, a contemporary hybrid implant with a new multi-surface topography designed to deliver aesthetic results through tissue preservation. BIOMET 3i has also been recognized for its contributions to new dental technologies, such as Digital Dentistry, with the development of its patented BellaTek® Encode® Impression System. At the core of this system is the BellaTek® Encode® Healing Abutment, which incorporates special codes embedded on the occlusal surface that translate the dental implant information needed without the clinician having to make an implant level impression. In addition, the impression of the BellaTek® Encode® Healing Abutment can now be taken with an intraoral scanner allowing for a quicker, more comfortable impression process for the patient.
Superior customer service and supporting continuous learning for dental health care providers have been at the core of the BIOMET 3i Business. This includes the recent launch of the new Institute for Dental Dental Implant and Reconstructive Dentistry (IIRD), a state-of-the-art learning facility located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida with satellite locations in Mexico, Italy, Spain and Germany that combines leading-edge technology with evidence-based dentistry.
BIOMET 3i has been a leader in the dental industry for over 25 years through continuous innovation, education, new market expansion and long standing relationships with global dental schools and societies. BIOMET 3i will continue to focus on treatment solutions that help to optimize dental care for patients, continuing to make implant dentistry a more widely-accepted form of treatment. More specifically, BIOMET 3i will continue to focus on sustainable aesthetics, accelerated treatment times, digitally driven patient and practice management and comprehensive tissue management.
"My dream to better the lives of patients through scientific, evidence-based research has now been fully realized. At BIOMET 3i, our primary goal is to provide clinicians and their patients the simplest, most aesthetic outcomes. I couldn't be more proud of what we've accomplished," says Dr. Lazzara.
Our goal is to offer customer service that will make BIOMET 3i Netherlands an extension of our customer's dental practice with our entire company's resources at their disposal.

"I just wanted to say thank you to EVERYONE for the wonderful stay! The location was perfect, the hospitality and help was amazing. The cabins were so cozy and "homey" feeling that we never wanted to leave. We loved everything, from the fact that we could sleep in and not be awakened by knocks at the door for housekeeping like in hotels, down to the fire pit area and how each day fresh fire starting supplies were always stocked for guests to use the area. I saw staff constantly from dawn till dusk caring for the property, and it shows by how well kept it is. We will make Tall Pines our only lodging choice for any future visits to beautiful Eureka Springs."

The Hideaway is a small, relaxed and friendly campsite in the heart of North Yorkshire offering chilled-out camping that's in tune with nature and doesn't cost the earth.
There are just 40 pitches in a six-acre field, which nestles in our 110-acre farm, surrounded by trees and bounded on one side by a stream. We are off the beaten track, but only a stroll from the village shop, pub and bus stop.
The shower block is a brand-new log cabin-style building: it is heated and there is plenty of hot water! Preserving the environment and what we have achieved here at Baxby Manor over the years is important to us, which is why when you come to stay at The Hideaway things may be a little different from your 'standard' campsite…
A biomass straw pellet boiler is used to heat the water for your showers, LED lights are used throughout the building and rainwater is used for flushing the toilets. We also have a heat recovery system installed to make sure nothing goes to waste! You wouldn't know any difference though...just read our reviews!
The Hideaway is a special, peaceful and restful place where you can spend precious days away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A haven for walkers and cyclists, and a perfect base for exploring the many historic, cultural and outdoor attractions of this lovely part of Yorkshire. We are about camping, the countryside and getting away from it all, and for those reasons:
We have a strict no noise policy after 11pm so if you want to stay up late partying, this is not the site for you!

Please note
We have a strict no noise policy after 11pm so if you want to stay up late partying this is not the site for you!

keep an eye on your children, they are your responsibility not ours! There is plenty of open space on the campsite for your children to play safely under the watchful eye of responsible parents,

Personally, I think there are a combination of things going on here. First the other sheriffs are definitely jealous of the attention he is receiving, and that may be why they just plain don't like him.
Second, I believe they exaggerated a lot of his behavior. We all know cops back up cops (see pages 1 & 2) in fact, this very article says "As our local prosecutors learned during several probes into police corruption in the past decade, some cops are readily willing to lie under oath, falsify official documents or hide incriminating evidence for a corrupt colleague". It also goes on to say "deputies strenuously tried but failed to undermine Montoya's Navy Cross; raised questions about his Camp Pendleton superiority and sniper skills; speculated that the tragic death of his fiancee" (basically trying to scrape up some dirt), and that they had ""assumptions" he was dangerous, a declaration used to justify placing secret cameras at his home and GPS trackers on his vehicles, as well as monitoring his phone calls without warrants."
"He is seeking financial sanctions against the department for failing to retain or purposefully destroying related Montoya records after officials had been put on notice about a potential lawsuit". "Which OCSD protests is meritless because any missing records were innocently obliterated."
Really? You "innocently obliterated" them? AFTER being notified of the lawsuit? Seriously. Who knows what really happened, the interesting part will be seeing what kind of EVIDENCE they will produce in court. Will they have recordings of him perverted conversations? Of him talking to a child molester? Do they have the phone records? Witnesses that will testify? Any proof other than hear say or he-said/she-said statements?
Keep us posted OC Weekly. You are doing a dam good job!

14550 S Robert Trail, Rosemount, MN | Directions 5506844.738563 -93.125711
Very poor service; pizza bar substandard – Bad experience. Three of the four of us at our table ordered the pizza bar, the fourth ordered off the menu. Pizza bar was substandard - most of the pizzas had minimal toppings. Not what I expected from Carbones. There was supposed to be pasta and sauce - first time I went to get pasta, there was a little bit of sauce and no pasta; next time there was pasta, but no sauce. Finally gave up. The person who ordered off the menu waited 40 minutes to get his food. When the server finally delivered the food after 40 minutes, there was no apology for the long wait. Our server never asked us if we wanted refills on our drinks until I flagged him down and asked for refills. Needless to say, we left no tip and probably won't go back. What a disappointment. Surely not the quality of food or service I expected at Carbones!
Manager Not a good problem solver – I am sad to report that we will no longer be attending one of our favorite places. I go there for the buffet often, we go there in the evening. Their servers are awesome and the food is always to our liking. We eat there or take out at least once a week. After dealing with Lindsey the manager tonight, I have decided, based on her lack of problem solving ability, to not return.
My son placed our our weekly order for a 4-itme pizza and 2 hoagies to go like we usually do. I heard his order and we heard the phone person restate the order because my son was using his speaker phone. He confirmed and then we waited the half hour wait they told us and went to pick it up.
Upon returning, we noticed that the pizza was right on - and we love the pizza!! We also noticed that he had ordered a 1/2 turkey hoagie with no chips and extra pickle. He got the chips but also the pickle. I don't know if the chips are extra but we don't usually care that much as he doesn't eat the chips he goes right for the hoagie and then the pizza.
Here comes the problem...
The second hoagie was also a 1/2 turkey hoagie but we had ordered a beef hoagie. This can happen from time to time so I just made a phone call to find out what we should do.
( FYI: we place the same order each week and the only thing that changes is whether we get a half or whole hoagie)
I called up and let the person on the phone know we had an order mix up and asked what were our options. She got a manager. The manager found our order and said that the waitress checked with us to confirm and we OKayed it. I told the manager that we ordered this time and every time, a beef hoagie and that in this case we actually heard our sone say the order over the speak phone and confirm it and the phone person confirmed it as he ordered it.
She wanted to know what I wanted her to do. I asked her what were my options. She said she could make me another one and I said I would really prefer not to come in again and I wasn't going to eat the hoagie because I just had a subway turkey hoagie for lunch. She said she could give us a $5 credit. I asked her how much the hoagie was and she said something but I couldn't really hear her because it was so loud in the background. I mentioned the loudness and then suggested to her I would like to have full reimbursement for my hoagie. She acknowledged the loudness and said all she could do was give us a $5 credit because we OKayed the order initially. I suggested that didn't seem right and she said there was nothing she could do but talk to the owner.
At this point I was beginning to get upset and feeling like I was getting the run around. I told the manager I was getting upset. We went back and forth and I felt like it was going no where but I just couldn't believe she wouldn't do the right thing and simply offer to reimburse us for the hoagie the next time we came in.
I was so frustrated that I started telling her I was a regular customer etc... and if they wanted to lose my business over something like this because this was the best they could do then I guess I would have to live with that. Lindsey was her name and she seemed nice enough but just not very aware of how to handle the situation; unless she truly was handcuffed by the owners. Wow - why hire a manager who can't do the right thing. Our order each week is at least $32 dollars and they are willing to piss that income away for something so simple to fix. It seems silly but maybe they have so many customers that one more family doesn't really matter.
BURNT CRUST AND A MANAGER THAT HANGS UP ON YOU – I dont recomend this pizza joint to anyone, after receiving my small house special pizza and biting into it I realized the crust was burnt and hard as a rock, I called the manager and she said she would send out a new one, I gave the old pizza to the dog and waited for the new pizza, when the delivery guy showed up he wouldnt give me the pizza without the old one. I called the manager back to ask why she didnt tell me they would want the burnt one back and she hung up on me, I immediatly called her back to tell her thats no way to treat customers and i wanted to call the carbones main office to report her, she says her brother owns the place and theres nothing I can do about it. with half a dozen pizza joints in town I really think they could do better then this, I will never buy anything from them again and i hope the go under like alot of places before them.
Here we go again with rosemount pizza places. – Burgers yes!
Pizza no well for the exception of the crust which has a minimal mount of potential.
Loud music cant even here myself try to enjoy my food.
The drinks well lets not get started.
Watered-down drinks – The music is far from exceptional, and the volume makes it difficult to hold any conversations. While at McDivot's with a large group, at least 5 people (including me) commented on the watery drinks. For the price you pay, the drinks aren't worth it! I would not recommend McDivot's.
Our local favorite – McDivot's is a great place for a laid-back meal, especially early or on a weeknight, avoiding loud music and smoke. Service is usually good, but spotty, especially if you get a new waiter. The menu is pretty big, and the burgers are great. They'll make your meal to order, and you can ask for substitutions. The down side: the non-smoking section is right next to tables where people are allowed to smoke, so you may not be able to get away from the smoke. If you go when it's not crowded, the smoke usually isn't too bad, though. Later in the evening, you may find loud music, but it's not too loud during supper time. We love McDivot's for relaxed meals close to home, and have taken out-of-town guests a couple times. I would recommend McDivot's to anyone looking for a good meal at a casual place in the area.
Irish Pub or Hip-Hop Joint? – A couple of friends and I stopped in for a few drinks one evening and left after just a few minutes. A DJ was blasting some hip hip so loud we couldn't hear each other talk. This place needs to decide what it wants to be -- a local pub where people can relax and talk over drinks or a trendy dance bar. (hint: no one seemed to be dancing, just covering their ears...)
McDivot's Get A Hole In One! – McDivot's is a fun sports bar with plenty of TV's to watch sports. Great food, which is reasonably priced, the same with their drinks. McDivot's is clean and kept up very nicely. There really aren't any bad things to say about the bar, it's servers, food, or ambiance. Karaoke a couple nights a week, dancing on others, it's a great place to go out and meet great local people or have a party for friends. I would recommend McDivot's to anyone!

I just made this dip and it is so good. I think I will spoon it on some penne tonight as a side dish. I will also try making it with canned cherry tomatoes which I usually have on hand. Thanks

Til Dirt Do Us Partby Edith Maxwell
The produce is local--and so is the crime--when long-simmering tensions lead to murder following a festive dinner on Cam Flaherty's farm. It'll take a sleuth who knows the lay of the land to catch this killer. But no one ever said Cam wasn't willing to get her hands dirty. . . Autumn has descended on Westbury, Massachusetts, but the mood at the Farm-to-Table Dinner in Cam's newly built barn is unseasonably chilly. Local entrepreneur Irene Burr made a lot of enemies with her plan to buy Westbury's Old Town Hall and replace it with a textile museum--enough enemies to fill out a list of suspects when the wealthy widow turns up dead in a neighboring farm. Even an amateur detective like Cam can figure out that one of the resident locavores went loco--at least temporarily--and settled a score with Irene. But which one? With the Fall harvest upon her, Cam must sift through a bushelful of possible killers that includes Irene's estranged stepson, her disgruntled auto mechanic, and a fellow CSA subscriber who seems suspiciously happy to have the dead woman out of the way. The closer she gets to weeding out the culprit, the more Cam feels like someone is out to cut her harvest short. But to keep her own body out of the compost pile, she'll have to wrap this case up quickly. Praise For A Tine To Live, A Tine To Die"Absorbing. . . Builds to an exciting climax.

USA Boxing has plenty to do after first Olympics without medaling
Story Highlights
USA Boxing sent 12 men to the London Olympics and didn't win a single medal
Three of nine lost in the first round and only one advanced to the quarterfinals
Turning the program around won't be easy, but there're a few easy places to start
LONDON -- So this is what history looks like, a century of dominance reduced to a medal-less pile of rubble. Errol Spence Jr. was the last American standing between USA Boxing and its worst showing in Olympic history, and on Tuesday Spence was out-jabbed, out-boxed and ultimately out-pointed, 16-11, by Russian Andrey Zamkovoy, falling, like every U.S. fighter before him, to an opponent more schooled in the amateur boxing style than he was.
USA Boxing Executive Director Anthony Bartkowski has been a witness to all of it, one of the many who saw this coming. Last January Bartkowski slipped into a seat for lunch at a Colorado Springs restaurant, an unsettling feeling in his stomach. Two of his dining companions that day -- Alan Ashley, the United States Olympic Committee's Chief of Sport Performance and Rachel Isaacs, the Team Leader of Sport Performance -- were responsible for distributing funds from the USOC's multibillion war chest, and Bartkowski knew they weren't happy. In October, the U.S. was expected to qualify four fighters for the Olympics at the World Championships; they qualified three. That same month the U.S. sent eight fighters to the Pan-American games in Mexico. All eight were eliminated in the first round. "That was as bad a time to have that meeting as it could have possibly been," says Bartkowski. "We were in a tough spot."
Bartkowski feared the USOC would cut his funding; or worse, not fund the boxing program at all. In 2007, USA Boxing received $1.1 million in grants from the USOC, and has been on a precipitous decline ever since. According to USOC tax forms, in 2010 it dipped to $482,000, significantly less than sports like taekwondo ($608,000), curling ($703,000) and biathlon ($922,000) and astronomically less than what speed skating ($2.6 million), bobsled and skeleton ($1.7 million) or gymnastics ($1.6 million) received. The size of a USOC check is based largely on performance and potential, and in its eyes, USA Boxing wasn't showing much of either.
Ultimately, the cut wasn't too deep -- the grant was reduced to $440,000 -- but it came with a condition: Head coach Joe Zanders had to go. It had been a year since Zanders took over the national program and expectations weren't being met. So Zanders resigned in March and was replaced in June by Basheer Abdullah, the Olympic coach in '04, who had less than a month to prepare his team for London. "Obviously," says Abdullah, "it wasn't an ideal situation."
The results have been, well, predictable: Three of the nine U.S. men lost in the first round and only one advanced to the quarterfinals. The first medal-less Olympics in U.S. men's boxing history completed the bottoming out of a once-elite program that amassed a 108 medals between 1904 and 2004 but has collected only one, a bronze in '08, since. Fixing it won't be easy, but there are a few simple places to start.
Select a coach -- Since 2000, USA Boxing has employed four head coaches, which has created seismic instability in the program. Between 2000 and 2004 the U.S. didn't bother to hire a full-time national coach, instead rotating coaches in annually. "We need to identify a good coach and allow him to have their hands involved with what the team does, starting right after the Olympics," says Bartkowski.
Equally important is putting together a staff with similar philosophies. When heavyweight Deontay Wilder returned from a qualifying tournament in 2007, he told his coach, Jay Dean, that he was taught ten different ways to throw a jab. "It was confusing," says Wilder, a 2008 bronze medalist. "We were trying to learn how to score points and everyone was teaching different ways to throw a punch."
Incorporate personal coaches -- Standing in a dark hallway beneath the ExCel Exhibition Centre stands last week, Gary Stark Sr., the personal coach for light heavyweight Marcus Browne, fumed. He had just watched Browne drop his first round match, in part, Stark said, because he fought the wrong fight. "Marcus is a power puncher and they have him in there running around," said Stark. "I don't like how they do things here."
Stark crystallized a major problem for the next program: repairing the fractured relationships between personal coaches and USA Boxing. "It's one of the biggest issues we have," says Bartkowski. Personal coaches feel left out of the Olympic process, essentially asked to hand over a fighter they have trained since childhood to a national coach who knows little about them. "I didn't have any part in what went on here," says Armando Mancinas, coach of lightweight Jose Ramirez, "And I didn't like it."
When coaches are shut out, they don't stop coaching -- in Beijing personal coaches were known to train fighters in hotel rooms in the evening -- often forcing an inexperienced athlete to choose between the advice of a coach they trust and the one they are supposed to be working with. In March, the U.S. brought the coaches for the three women Olympians -- Marlen Esparza, Queen Underwood and Claressa Shields -- to a weeklong camp, something Bartkowski hopes to do with the men next year. "We have to get on the same page," says Warren's trainer, Mike Stafford. "What happened [in London] should be an eye-opener. There isn't enough trust between the coaches."
Said Abdullah, "Would it have made a difference if our personal coaches were in the corner? No. They are not familiar with [Olympic] style of boxing. They are not preparing their athletes to box internationally. They are either training them to win on a national level or they are training them to turn pro. We need to put more pressure on our athletes and personal coaches and say, 'Hey, are you going to be part of this amateur program or are you going to go pro?' Choose. If we don't take a stand like that, we'll be right back in the same situation in 2016."
Meet the World -- Fact: Amateur boxing is nothing like pro boxing. "They are almost different sports," says trainer Freddie Roach. Most American's are trained in a pro-style, which rewards power and aggression, whereas scoring in the computerized points system in amateur boxing requires advanced technique and precision. "This is probably the only sport I know where saying 'our guys train like pros' is a detriment," says trainer Teddy Atlas. "The Olympics does not appreciate that style."
Dual meets, continental competitions and a European tour--which, along with enhanced domestic training, would cost about $750,000 a year--would offer athletes invaluable exposure to a variety of styles. "We can't keep competing against Mexico and Puerto Rico," says Abdullah. "We got to fight more Europeans, more Asians and we have to get in there with the Cubans." Back in the U.S., top international coaches can be imported for seminars on how to counter the styles they will face. "If you fight, you lose and then you go home, what good is it?" asks Atlas. "You're banging your head against the wall. You have to learn ways to beat the guys you are facing."
Recruit the past -- Imagine, for a moment, if before Ramirez's second round fight he got a pep talk from 1992 gold medalist Oscar De La Hoya. Or if middleweight Terrell Gausha got a couple of tips before his bout from 2000 silver medalist Jermain Taylor. Helpful? Can't hurt. Yet fighters seem to distance themselves from USA Boxing the moment they leave it.
Not all of this is the program's fault. Last week De La Hoya tweeted that the 2016 team should be coached by former Olympians Mark Breland, Sugar Ray Leonard and himself, conveniently omitting the fact that USA Boxing has repeated asked De La Hoya and Leonard to be part of the program and, according to officials, they have repeatedly passed.
USA Boxing needs De La Hoya the fighter, not the coach, the inspiration, not the promoter. De La Hoya's only influence on the 2012 squad came when his company, Golden Boy, issued a news release in July announcing a plan to air U.S. Olympians pro debuts on CBS, a release that enraged AIBA so much that the USOC made all the USA boxers sign waivers affirming they had not signed professional contracts, and left a group of teenagers and 20-somethings wondering if their conversations with Golden Boy had jeopardized their amateur status.
If De La Hoya isn't interested, USA Boxing would benefit from inquiring if others are. The program has churned out some superior talents over the years, from De La Hoya to Floyd Mayweather, from Rocky Juarez to Andre Ward. They don't need to come on as coaches, but some consistent appearances would give everyone a boost.
* * *
Even as USA Boxing sinks to its nadir, there are reasons to be optimistic. For one, fiscal responsibility has been restored. In 2010, Bartkowski inherited a program that had a $1.8 million deficit the year before. In 2011 that deficit was reduced to $313,000 and by the end of this year Bartkowski hopes to have it under six figures. And despite being shut out of a medal, the U.S. qualified fighters in 12 of the 13 weight classes, more than any other country. In the next two months Bartkowski hopes to name an Olympic coach for 2016, so that when he meets with USOC officials in October they will see a stable program worth investing in. "The shape we were in, I knew we were going to have plenty of darts thrown at us," says Bartkowski. "But we came in mid quadrennial and we were faced with so many obstacles. Our eyes are on 2016 and 2020 now. We have a full four-year cycle. Hopefully by the next Olympics, it will be a whole different picture."

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Early miners digging for gold, silver and copper across the West had no idea that one day something else valuable would be hidden in the discarded piles of dirt and rocks called tailings.
Today, there's a rush to find key components for cellphones, televisions, weapons systems, wind turbines, MRI machines and the regenerative brakes in hybrid cars.
And it turns out old mine leftovers just might be the answer.
Federal geologists are hunting for deposits of the elements known as rare earth supplies.
And old mines are becoming increasingly important to that search as the U.S. government seeks to break the Chinese stranglehold on the materials.
