Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to synchronization utilizing one or more optimizations through the utilization of metadata. The functional covering filament has a length that is greater than the drafted length of the elastic member such that substantially all of an elongating stress imposed on the composite yarn is carried by the elastic member. The system also includes an implant screw that is adapted to pass through the central opening of the base member and into the patient’s jawbone. The storage router has a storage router inputoutput processor to monitor the storage router and to issue a storage router down message when the storage router is down. When joined, the two halves form collars on opposite ends.
