The present invention relates to methods and arrangements for handling unreliable scheduling grants in a WCDMA-communication system. In one embodiment, the front tether panel is comprised of two or more tether segments that cut in alignment with the warp and the fill of the fabric blank, while the rear tether panel is comprised of two or more tether segments that are cut on the bias with respect to the warp and the fill of the fabric blank. The lever is configured to selectively engage a gear. Memory cells connected to different wordlines in the same row, and the memory cells connected to different wordlines in different rows can be activated synchronized or asynchonized as desired. The packaging web is separated into first and second waste webs which are co-wound onto a common collection spool.
