TSMC Selects Cadence Virtuoso and Encounter Platforms for its 20nm Design Infrastructure, Spanning Custom/Analog, Digital and Mixed-Signal Design
Cadence Design, Verification, Implementation and Signoff Technology
Cadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS), a leader in global electronic design innovation, announced today that TSMC has selected Cadence® solutions for its 20-nanometer design infrastructure. The solutions cover the Virtuoso® custom/analog and Encounter® RTL-to-signoff platforms.
The TSMC 20-nanometer reference flows incorporate new features and methodologies in both Encounter and Virtuoso that take into account newly important wire characteristics, timing closure and design size considerations.
For the custom/analog designer, Virtuoso technology supports new 20-nanometer constraints in the industry standard OpenAccess database, including G0 rules, interactive coloring for color-aware layout, a constraint-driven pre-coloring flow, odd-cycle loop prevention and detection, advanced Pcell abutment and support for local interconnect layers. Cadence Integrated Physical Verification System is an in-design technology that integrates the Cadence Physical Verification System within the Virtuoso platform.
For the digital designer, Encounter RTL-to-GDSII supports 20-nanometer rules, the new FlexColor double- patterning technology for correct-by-construction placement and routing, and Encounter RTL Compiler plus the GigaOpt optimization of Encounter Digital Implementation (EDI) System for better quality of results with a shorter turnaround time.
For signoff, the Cadence Encounter Timing System offers advanced waveform modeling and multi-valued SPEF for double-patterning RC extraction. Cadence QRC Extraction delivers a DPT-aware corners extraction technology that supports both LEF/DEF and GDSII flows. The Cadence Physical Verification System offers support of 20-nanometer double-patterning and incremental DRC correction, and TSMC rule decks are now available for the Physical Verification System. Encounter Power System provides accurate, basic and complex topology-dependent EM rules, and Litho Physical Analyzer and Litho Electrical Analyzer have been updated with 20-nanometer models for hotspot analysis and repair.
Finally, TSMC has adopted Cadence technology for its Custom Design Reference Flow, which demonstrates a methodology for designing custom and digitally assisted analog circuits through common technology setup and integrated concurrent analog and digital layout.
"Cadence is focused on providing our customers with the technologies they need to tackle the biggest challenges with today's complex designs, such as low power consumption," said Dr. Chi-Ping Hsu, senior vice president of the Silicon Realization Group at Cadence. "We have been working closely with TSMC and our mutual customers to develop comprehensive solutions to the challenges of 20-nanometer design. Our Virtuoso and Encounter 20-nanometer technologies are uniquely integrated to deliver a unified flow that addresses the most challenging low-power mixed-signal chips."
"Equipping design tools to fulfill 20-nanometer requirements is a complex endeavor that can be achieved only through close collaboration," said Suk Lee, senior director of Design Infrastructure Marketing, TSMC. "The 20-nanometer process required a new approach to make the ecosystem ready for the start of production designs as soon as the process node is ready. Our collaboration with Cadence covered complete mixed-signal and digital flows to ensure that the requirements for double patterning are implemented and validated. This will help our mutual customers achieve working chips as quickly as possible as they take advantage of this new process node."

May 20, 2005
BRIDGEWATER, Mass. - Endicott College (26-15) topped MIT (20-14), 6-2, in the first round of the 2005 ECAC Championships, placing a halt on the Engineers' most successful campaign in nine years. Despite the tough finish, Tech's baseball unit spent much of the season re-writing the record books.
Jamie Turner pitched 7.2 strong innings against the Cardinal and Gray at Bridgewater State College, earning his sixth victory while supported by a 13-hit attack from the Endicott offense. Turner scattered seven hits against the Engineers and allowed only one eighth inning run. The win made Turner the Gulls' career-victory leader with 22.
The EC defense saved Turner a run in the seventh with a key bases-loaded, one-out pick off at first base. Catcher Dan Gomez threw behind MIT base runner Aaron Kent to get the second out of the inning and Turner finished the job by striking out pitcher Jay Turner to end the threat.
Unfortunately, the Engineers couldn't muster any momentum and stranded 10 runners during the tilt. Endicott scored first on a third-inning,two-run homer from Pat Vincent, while Greg Allain scored in the fourth on a single by Gavin Softic, who had three hits on the day. The Gulls got two more in the fifth behind a double from Matt Bishop and an RBI single from Mark Vaughan to build a 6-0 lead and pull away for the win.
The MIT Nine completed the program's third 20-win season in the history of the team, setting a plethora of records along the way. The following is a list of single-season records set in 2005:
Batting Average - .319
On Base Percentage - .389
Hits - 366
Earned Runs Scored On Opponents - 193
Fielding Average - .966
Double Plays - 26 (tie)

Drawing a Truer Picture of Carbon Emissions
A new cartoon reveals the true picture of carbon emissions

|Read More
In 2011 the United Kingdom pledged to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 50 percent by the year 2025, the most ambitious target by any industrialized country. Due to an increase in coal-generated power, the U.K. saw a 3.5 percent increase in CO2 emissions in 2012. This slight increase, however, is a blip on an otherwise impressive downward trend, with approximately a 20 percent decrease since 1990. Or is it? A new animation, "Carbon Omissions" by Leo Murray, makes it clear that humans have a bad tendency to shift blame for awkward happenings–like the proverbial dog's fart.
While official measurements reveal that the U.K.'s domestic production of CO2 has dramatically decreased, the country is the second highest global importer of embodied emissions. Because much of the country's industry has migrated to cheaper countries, in-state production has decreased, but consumption has not. Instead, the U.K. simply imports goods from developing nations. When taking such imports into account, the country has actually increased its emissions by 10 percent in the past two decades.
Carbon Omissions from Leo Murray on Vimeo.
Though China recently surpassed the United States as the largest carbon emitter in the world, it does so in a globalized society obsessed with cheap goods and labor, both of which China willingly supplies. Indeed, a 2008 study demonstrated that up to a third of China's CO2 emissions were a result of exports to other countries. There is no doubt that China and other developing nations like India and Brazil have drastically increased global carbon emissions. However, measuring emissions purely based on domestic production neglects the reality of a global economy. For example, while Brazilian consumption is responsible for much of the Amazon's deforestation, exports are responsible for an increasing percentage. It is both unfair and irresponsible for the Western world to point its fingers at the very countries it has outsourced much of its industry to. Though India and Brazil, and certainly China, need to mitigate their own emissions, they will continue to find it challenging to do so as the rest of the world clamors for their cheap labor. Consumers fart and the Chinese get the blame.
A clever portrayal of what happens when adding imported goods into the UK's emissions (Leo Murray)

If you're bullish on the global economy, currency ETFs offer plenty of opportunities. Your best bet is to go global.
Many experts like the CurrencyShares Australian Dollar Trust because of Australia's close ties to China and its sizable commodity exports. The WisdomTree Dreyfus Brazilian Real Fund is another popular choice.
China has been keeping its currency in a narrow range, and while its economy is slowing, there is still growth.
Anthony Davidow, a portfolio strategist at Guggenheim Investments, sees opportunities there "if you have a long time horizon and an appetite for risk."
If you prefer a play on emerging markets generally, there are basket ETFs that serve that purpose. Tom Lydon, chief executive of Global Trends Investments, recommends the WisdomTree Dreyfus Emerging Currency Fund..

Local pump control panels for water treatment and disposal, Tengizchevroil, Kazakhstan
Not only in the BENELUX ELECTROMACH is a known manufacturer but our systems are used worldwide.
For a customer in Kazakhstan we designed several local pump control panels for a water treatment and disposal installation. The control panels were used to control rainwater pumps.
The complete installation is installed in a Zone 2 hazardous area. The local control panel is ATEX certified and suitable for a Zone 2, IIB, T3 area.
The pumps are controlled by means of a PLC, which is mounted in the flameproof (Exd) almuminum CUBEx enclosure (series 8264).
The distribution circuits for lighting are photocell controlled. Due to the extreme low ambient temperatures internal panel heating is necessary. For heating tracing cable is used which will be thermostat controlled.
Both the distribution circuits as well as the tracing circuits are mounted in an increased safe (Exe) GRP (glass fibre-reinforced polyester resin) enclosure (series 8146) of R.STAHL.

The pioneering new structure of Milestone Documents enables educators to adopt just one pedagogically sound resource to replace both textbook and document reader at a remarkably low cost to students: $29.95 for a full semester of unlimited access.
New Orleans (PRWEB) January 04, 2013
At the American Historical Association Annual Meeting, Milestone Documents announced that it will debut a modern digital alternative to traditional textbooks in August 2013 when it unveils a dramatically expanded version of its popular service. What began as an online document reader with robust analyses is evolving to include a unique textbook layer and powerful educator support for college-level courses in history and related disciplines. The pioneering new structure enables educators to adopt just one pedagogically sound resource to replace both textbook and document reader at a remarkably low cost to students: $29.95 for a full semester of unlimited access.
"We're responding to an undeniable market movement to recreate the textbook in a form that's more flexible for professors and less expensive for students," said Neil Schlager, founder and president of Milestone Documents. "Our service mixes content and context in a digital format that allows teachers to have better control over their course structure and materials. The content is constantly expanding, and all of it is curated and guided by subject experts in the various disciplines that we cover—History, American Studies, and Religious Studies."
The new Milestone Documents builds on a foundation of more than 1,300 key primary sources included in the existing Standard Edition of the service. These textual sources are accompanied by comprehensive analyses written by a global network of scholars. Each content area is led by an Editor in Chief, a scholar and educator who curates the document coverage and oversees the development of such instructor materials as model outlines, recommended documents, lecture notes, and assessments. The Standard Edition is available to students for less than $20 for a full semester and is in use in a wide variety of colleges and universities throughout the United States.
The Premium Edition, which will be ready by the Fall 2013 academic semester, includes an optional textbook layer of peer-reviewed narrative articles for introductory and survey courses in U.S. history, world history, and Western civilization. The textbook layer aligns with model outlines created by the Editor in Chief for each subject area. It will expand and grow over time, providing professors with additional options in choosing which units they want to assign to their students. The textbook layer adds only $10 to the cost to the student for the entire semester. Both editions include hallmark Milestone Documents features: the ability for professors to customize their class readings list as they see fit and to change it at any time. Students can highlight, take notes, and star their favorite readings.
Among the Editors in Chief are Philip DiMare (California State University–Sacramento), Jonathan Rees (Colorado State University–Pueblo), Karen Linkletter (California State University–Fullerton), Joseph Stuart (University of Mary), Eric Cunningham (Gonzaga University), and Claudrena Harold (University of Virginia). Materials development is ongoing and will continually grow with new curated documents, textbook articles, and instructor support materials. Additional courses and Editors in Chief will be added in areas including Asian history, African history, women's history, Latin American history, and American Southwest history.
The new Milestone Documents has been embraced by the Affordable Learning Solutions initiative of the California State University System for Fall 2013. While the innovative resource has captured attention for its low student cost, its loyal following among educators has been sustained by its authoritative content, easy customization, and simple navigation. Philip DiMare of Cal State Sacramento, who serves as Editor in Chief of both U.S. History I and Comparative Religions, said he was initially drawn to the service for its "incredible range and depth" of primary source coverage but was excited to see it expand into a full-service option for instructors. "I'm thrilled to be a part of what I think is one of the most forward-thinking educational tools on the market."

Sybase iAnywhere has announced a new version of its iAnywhere Blue SDK that will help developers incorporate Bluetooth capabilities into Android devices. With the underlying Bluetooth functionality running on a Linux based 2.6.x kernel, the Sybase iAnywhere Blue SDK provides necessary application layer support for developers to effectively add increased wireless flexibility to the rich Android framework.
The Sybase iAnywhere Blue SDK for Android extends the Android platform by strengthening it with industry standard application profiles, including: Handsfree (HFP), Advanced Audio Distribution (A2DP), A/V Remote Control (AVRCP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Object Push Protocol (OPP), SIM Access (SAP), Phone Book Access (PBAP), Message Access Profile (MAP), Human Interface (HID), Basic Printing (BPP) and Basic Imaging (BIP).
"We are extremely pleased to add the Android framework to our growing list of Bluetooth ported products and continue building out our extensive device support strategy for Sybase's customer and partner ecosystem," said Sybase's Terry Stepien. "As Bluetooth functionality continues to gain popularity in the telematics and consumer electronics marketplace, developers require an extremely effective way to extend those features to various wireless platforms, including Android. Our commercial Bluetooth stack is extremely reliable with more qualified application profiles for Android than any other market solution and we offer a high level of technical support for those customers that require it."

There are worse ways to spend 90 minutes than having Sandra Bullock repeatedly tumble into your lap.
At least that's what it feels like in the immersive, in-your-face 3-D version of "Gravity," a magnificent spectacle of a film seemingly engineered to generate as many rave reviews as complaints of motion sickness.
Inexperienced astronaut Dr. Ryan Stone (Bullock) repairs the Hubble Telescope during a spacewalk while her mission commander, seen-it-all veteran Matt Kowalski (George Clooney), tests a new jetpack. Kowalski drifts in and out of the frame, Hank Williams' "Angels Are Hard to Find" blaring over his headset, while retelling tired stories that the crew at mission control knows by heart. It's Stone's first time in orbit, but it's Kowalski's last, and he's relishing every moment.
The scene, an uninterrupted bit of beauty, serves as a dose of serenity leading up to the mayhem that's just over the horizon.
In the process of destroying one of their satellites, Russia has unleashed an ever-expanding debris field that gathers mass and speed with each object it destroys while turning some of Earth's most sophisticated technology into shrapnel.
That debris wipes out the Hubble, untethering Stone and sending her spiraling deeper and deeper into the darkness. As she flips and spins wildly out of control, unable to get her bearings, the shots from Stone's point-of-view — think putting one of those GoPro cameras in your clothes dryer — will leave you nearly as disoriented as she is.
Kowalski eventually reaches her and drags her by a tether back to their shuttle only to find it's been crippled, the rest of the crew has been killed and the debris has knocked out all communication with mission control in Houston. Much like a sci-fi version of "Open Water," they're as alone as two people can be.
Only five other actors are credited, all for voice work, including Ed Harris as the head of mission control. And aside from a couple of shots of their doomed colleagues' lifeless bodies, "Gravity" is quite literally a two-person show.
Clooney has the largely thankless task of essentially being Clooney: charming, confident and cool under pressure. But if you think that's easy, you try being George Clooney for a while and see how that works out.
Bullock gets the meatier, if mostly reactive, role. Damaged from the loss of her young daughter, Stone spends most of the just-long-enough 90 minutes careening between hope and resignation. She ends up having to say plenty of things that likely would have been internalized if she weren't in a movie. But she's also the source of one of "Gravity's" signature shots: the sheer gorgeousness of a single tear floating in zero gravity.
In a refreshing change of pace, and a clear sign that Hollywood has finally run out of summer movies, Kowalski and Stone aren't out to save the world. They're just trying to save themselves.
Stone's panicked flailings have used up most of her oxygen. Kowalski burned off most of his jetpack's thrusters getting to her. As they drift, ever so slowly, to what they hope will be the safety of the also-damaged International Space Station, Stone counts down the final percentages of her oxygen supply. It's an agonizing voyage across the void that's bound to leave moviegoers almost as breathless.
There's far more to "Gravity" than that, as Kowalski and especially Stone endure one calamity after another. But to talk more about the plot would shortchange the movie's sense of awe. Directing a script he wrote with his son Jonas, Alfonso Cuaron ("Children of Men") has delivered a stunning technical achievement.
You know Bullock and Clooney aren't really in outer space. At least that's what your mind will tell you. But from time to time, the astonishingly realistic "Gravity" will make you forget. It's hard to fathom that a movie could look this good.
"Gravity," though, is a feast for the senses. From Stone's labored breathing to the periodic transmissions from Earth to the stretches of almost utter silence, this certain best-picture nominee sounds almost as good as it looks.
Just be sure to bring along the Dramamine if you're at all susceptible.
Because although it may be true that in space no one can hear you scream, in a movie theater everyone can hear you if you hurl.

I saw this recipe here. And I loved it. I wanted to try it immediately. But it needed so much oil.. well, I thought, once in a while it is okay to cook such yummy dish.
But again, my weighing machine told me I was crossing the acceptable weight. My jeans was telling me i was losing shape….
So, I saved it in my favorites for some days.. but it kept haunting me… why not try once, one time does not matter…
And who says I am out of shape…. Round is also a shape 🙂
What you need:
Chicken : 1 Kg, with bones
Onion : 1, big, chopped
Ginger Garlic paste : 3 Tbsp
Lemongrass : 4, chopped
Dry red chillies : 10, soaked in water for about 15 – 20 mins (adjust according to taste)
Tomato Soup : 1 cup
Coconut milk : 1 cup
Star Anise : 2
Cinnamon : 2 inch
Cloves : 5
Cardamom Pods : 5-6 , ground coarsely
Salt : to taste
Turmeric : 1/2 tsp
Oil : for deep frying + 1/4 cup
- Marinate chicken with Salt and Turmeric. Set aside for an hour.
- Heat oil for frying in a deep wok and fry the chicken pieces till golden, drain on paper and keep aside.
- Put Onion, Lemongrass, Red chillies and Ginger Garlic paste in a food processor and make a coarse paste.
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a wide pan.
- Add cinnamon, cloves, cardamom and star anise, until it emit a nice aroma.
- Add the processed onion paste. Fry till the raw smell disappears and is fragrant and oil separates.
- Add tomato soup, coconut milk and chicken pieces.
- Add salt.
- Lower the heat and cook till the sauce thickens.
- Garnish with spring onion, and serve hot with rice or rotis.
Mom's Tips:
If you don't have tomato soup, you can use tomato puree. Use the homemade puree, I feel store bought very tangy.
If you don't want so much fat in your dish, you can skip frying the chicken pieces before hand, and add them directly in Step 7 and cook till done.

Picture: Avril Lavigne Celebrities arrive at ABC Studios for 'Good Morning America' New York City, USA - 22.11.11
Pop star Avril Lavigne has split from Kim Kardashian's half-brother Brody Jenner, according to U.S. reports.
The reality TV star and pop punk Lavigne have been dating since shortly after she split from her husband, Sum 41 rocker Deryck Whibley at the end of 2009, but now editors at Life & Style magazine claim the stars have gone their separate ways.
According to the publication, they were divided on their views of marriage.
A source tells the magazine, "They decided to end their relationship... She wanted to settle down, but he wasn't exactly ready. They had been having problems starting in the summer with her tour because she was on the road all the time. It put a strain on their relationship."
Lavigne and Jenner have yet to comment on the split reports.

Long lines once again brought frustration to the registering fresh-men.
Dr. Paul Finlay, college registrar, assisted the many green beanied
freshmen in securing registration materials.
Homecoming Committee
Sets 'Faces of Freedom'
Called to order by President Bob Beckstrom was the Student Senate in its first official business meet-ing
of the year. All the spectator's seats were empty except one. Senators appeared in dresses and suits and
ties which will be appropriate dress for all senate meetings this year.
Unofficial tallies from the registrar's office in-dicates
that the Bethel College and Seminary en-rollment
will be well over the 1,000 mark when the
official count is made tomorrow. More than 900 full
and part-time students will be attending the college,
while seminary figures stand at 105.
Forming over one-third of the total student body
is the largest freshman class ever to enter the college,
numbering approximately 340 first year students. Dr.
The Student Senate began its regular Monday
evening business sessions on September 21, with the
adoption of fourteen Rules of Order. Included in the
Rules are time and place of meeting, appropriate
dress for senators at business sessions, regulation of
attendance and standard business procedure.
Senate meets every Monday evening at 7 in
the college auditorium. Meetings are open to all stu-dents.
Only one observer attended the first Senate
Standing rules of order for the classes were
also acted upon. After some discussion the Senate
deleted a section of the rules which would prohibit
a student from voting in his class elections if he
has not paid his class dues.
Election board, a branch of the Senate, was dele-gated
to build a voting booth and ballot boxes to
alleviate some of the confusion in the Coffee Shop
during elections.
George Palke, Athletic Committee co-ordinator,
is responsible for looking into the possibility of or-ganizing
a cheering section and Pep Band which can
be ready before Homecoming.
John Larsen and Denny Wall are co-chairmen
of an "Easter Service Project" committee. The dut-ies
of this committee are to inquire and submit a
report to the Senate on the opportunities available
for Bethel students to be of service to a needy area
in the county during Easter vacation.
Further possibilities which the Senate discussed
were correspondence with a Negro college hoping to
tures to be given Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday.
Thursday and Friday mornings
(at a time to be announced) Clark's
topics are "Scientific History" and
"Historiography" respectively. A
three-night series on "The Method-ology
of Karl Barth" is planned
for 8 p.m. Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday in the seminary chapel.
Thursday at noon, 25 interested
students will have the opportunity
of meeting this speaker at a lun-cheon
in the President's dining
room and on Friday a similar lun-cheon
will be held for faculty
members. Students interested irt
attending the luncheon must sign
on a sheet provided for that pur-pose.
Student Senate Adopts Rules,
Seeks Academic Co-ordinator
Paul Finlay, registrar, noted that the class of 1968 is
larger than had been anticipated.
On the sophomore level, over 200 students are
beginning their second year at Bethel, while the
juniors claim 172 class members. Registering as
seniors this fall were 121 students. All but one of
the seminary enrollees are men, while 3 students
will be auditing seminary courses.
Housing for the increased student body was one
of the greatest problems faced by Bethel administra-tors,
according to Eugene Sprinkle,
assistant dean of students.
"We're stacking in students in-stead
of volumes this year," coin,
mented Sprinkle on the eight fresh-men
who lived in the library build-ing
during the first week of school'
due to lack of dormitory space. In
the future "the criteria for admis-sion
will be available beds," said
Dean Sprinkle.
At present the dormitory capa-city
is approximately 435 with
the remainder of Bethel students
seeking housing in local homes.
Edgren Residence, for the men,
houses 165, while Bodien Resi-dence
for women has 156 stu-dents
in its wings. Room for an
additional 114 women residents
is found in the Hagstrom dormi-tory.

The Student Life Council, with Bill Madsen as
head, is in the process of suggesting names of can-didates
for Academic Committee co-ordinator. This
position is open due to the resignation of the pre-viously
elected chairman, Doug Mankell.
Committee for Homecoming 1964 is working on events scheduled
for Oct. 15 - 17, which will center around the theme "Faces of Freedom."
A new queen will begin her reign on Thursday at 8 p.m. in the
college auditorium. This year focus will be on the seminary development
beginning with Friday's chapel inauguration of Dr. Gordon Johnson as
new dean of Bethel Theological Seminary.
"Sounds of Freedom," a musical presentation featuring folk music
from different countries, will be presented on Thursday and Friday
nights in the fieldhouse.
A special melodrama for students will be given on Friday evening
also. A pep fest, Alumni coffee hour, and parents' reception will follow
the two performances.
A full day's activities are being
arranged for Saturday, Oct. 15. An
8 a.m. letterman's breakfast will
be followed by the laying of the
cornerstone for the seminary aca-demic
complex at Arden Hills.
Bethel Royals will kick off to
the General Beadle State Teachers
College at 1:30 Saturday afternoon.
The climax to the weekend will be
the alumni banquet at 6:30 in the
fieldhouse. Rev. C. P. Hinerman,
from the Park Avenue Methodist
Church, will give the address.
"Christianity and History," the
subject of next Wednesday's con-vocation
lecture, is presented by
Gordon H. Clark of Butler Univer-sity,

Class Presidents Reveal
Irresponsibility in Mix-up
Some disappointed students have been asking why last
Friday night's mixer was cancelled. They had planned to spend
a relaxing evening away from their books—just letting off
a little steam and getting away from the pressures of studying
for awhile.
But the mixer was cancelled, so they had to change their
plans. Luckily, those responsible for planning the event had
foresight enough not to publicize the mixer, so only a few were
Possibly the planners had a good reason for cancelling
the mixer. If they had known in February instead of May that
they would sponsor an all-school fun night in September, maybe
they could have secured folk singers and films for entertain-ment.
Sometimes it is difficult to find performers on short
Sarcasm aside. One feels keenly disappointed when stu-dent
leaders do not fulfill the obligations they volunteer for.
Probably few people really felt bad about the cancelled mixer,
but many feel let down when some one does not finish a project
for which he asked to be responsible.
Whether we are student leaders or not, there are people
depending on us to live up to our obligations. But someone
who has an office has added responsibilities to care for.
Class presidents were responsible for the mixer. Their
seeming irresponsibility calls for a second look at the proposal
to give them seats on the Student Life Council which plans
the school's calendar.

happened to be in Britain dur-ing
the Republican convention
when Senator Barry Goldwater
was nominated for president.
by Ron Harris
Barry Goldwater's endorsement
as the Republican candidate for the
Presidency is viewed with disbelief
in Europe. Prior to Goldwater's
nomination, this writer was told
by a 22-year old English student
working in Paris that "All of Eur-ope
is shocked that a man like
Barry Goldwater could get as far
as he has after a President like
The disbelief and horror that
exists on all fronts was echoed by
a book designer, who teaches at
Oxford and edits a quarterly maga-zine.
He stated with a great deal of
caution, that Europe views Mr.
Goldwater's policies and actions as
"akin to fascism."
Students of history may re-call
the fascism that swept
through England during the last
war, and the tremendous diffi-culty
that country had in uproot-ing
and finally eradicating its
"We are afraid that America
may have to undergo the same
thing we did during the war be-fore
realizing the lethal effects of
extremism," added the book de-signer.
The London Times, a newspaper
which some maintain has always
been anti-conservative, stated at
the opening of the Republican con-vention,
"The Republican party has
gathered here with the obvious in-tent
of destroying itself." Other
Times' editorials describe Gold-water's
position as contradictory.
"He talks of morality but sup-ports
a racial movement which
is immoral; he calls for the help
of decent Americans, and yet
embraces the John Birch Society
and other extremist organiza-tions
which use the tactics of
Fascist bully-boys to terrorize
Other foreign newspapers, par-ticularly
those of Scandinavia, are
highly critical of Goldwater. They
have described his acceptance
speech as employing "revivalist
religion, patriotism and Madison
Avenue catch phrases" but "as a
statement of party policy left much
to be desired." They, too, are un-derstandably
Perhaps the greatest amount of
criticism was provoked by the lines
of Goldwater's acceptance speech:
"Extremism in the defense of lib-erty
is no vice. Moderation in the
pursuit of justice is no virtue."
The Goldwater camp has no doubt
by now denied that he meant to
refuse to protect the party from
extremist groups and instead to
invite them (and their open wal-lets)
into its ranks.
What disturbs Europeans is
that these lines were a rebuff to

Brown and Company, Inc., Boston; Massachu-setts,
Salinger lives a strange life, and,
when he writes, he has a strange
and controversial effect on the pub-lic,
inspiring the youth and mak-ing
havoc with the critics. Prob-ably
no two novels in our time
have caused so much public furor
as The Catcher in the Rye and
Franny and Zooey.
Franny and Zooey is Salinger's
intricate, introverted and typically
monologue-ish attempt to probe in-to
the spiritual-emotional crisis of
a college girl named Franny, and
an attempt to create in her bro-ther
Zooey, via love and under-standing,
a quasi-redemptive figure
for both Franny and the reader.
Franny and Zooey are the off-beat
productions of the Glass
family—a family which includes
two retired Vaudvillians as par-ents
and seven thriving geniuses
as children.
Further insights reveal that
Franny's older brother Seymour
(the one-time spiritual leader of the
clan) has committed suicide, leav-ing
the Glass family lost beneath
a dark cloud. What remains of
Seymour is the Buddhistic es-trangement
from real life which
he has produced in Franny and
Zooey during childhood training.
While at college, Franny collap-ses.
Echoing Holden Caulfield, (The
Catcher in the Rye), she destroys
herself with hatred of the "phon-ies",
the "bastards", the "fishy
people, the people who are "so
tiny and meaningless and sad-mak-ing."
Isolating herself from society,
she complains: "I'm sick of ego,
ego, ego. My own and everybody
else's. I'm sick of everybody that
wants to get somewhere, do
something distinguished and all,
be something distinguished and
all, be somebody interesting. It's
disgusting—it is, it is. I don't
care what anybody says,"
In this near fatal retreat into
willessness, Franny clings to the
comforting mysticism contained in
a volume entitled "The Pilgrim's
Way" and perpetually mumbles
the "Jesus Prayer" (Lord Jesus
Christ, have mercy on me). With
this Oriental interpretation of the
command to "Pray without ceas-ing",
Franny longs to lose herself
in the soft beauty of infinity.
She goofs. And it takes the half-conned,
half-Christlike attempts of
feeling was summed up by a 21-
year old student who has re-ceived
the highest honor a young
person can attain in England—
offers of scholarships to Cam-bridge
and Oxford.
He said, "Whatever the famous
Goldwater computer decides, the
fact that he chose to speak in this
fashion after such shameful treat-ment
of a respected representative
of the old party should disturb
more people than the lone New
York delegation," half of whom, it
will be remembered, had walked
off the floor.
Another English student remark-ed,
"How can they accept him and
his phony states' rights front? They
can't be serious!" Goldwater is
somehow a joke, a frightful night-marish
joke, whom the European
people cannot imagine as president
of the United States.

nd Zooey'
Zooey to save her from tragedy. In
one of the more famous passages
of contemporary American fiction.
Zooey describes how, during child-hood,
when appearing on television,
he would always shine his shoes
for an imaginary "Fat Lady"—a
lady who did not exist in reality
but who nevertheless motivated
him to act benevolently.
And, speaking of all of hu-manity,
with its unlovely and un-wanted
masses of people, Zooey
concludes: "Are you listening to
me? There isn't anyone any-where
who isn't . . . the Fat
Lady. Don't you know that?
Don't you know that goddam
secrei yet?
"And don't you know—listen to
me now—don't you know who that
Fat Lady really is? Ah buddy. Ah.
buddy. It's Christ Himself. Christ
Himself, buddy."
It is certainly clear that Salinger
is saying something profoundly
necessary to contemporary society.
Even if Salinger's Christ is the
mere "good man" of secular con-ception,
the love which Salinger
portrays should be of interest to
all Christians everywhere.
Where there is love, there is sure
to be the Christ, and there is sure
to be hope that mankind can still

Recurrent problems of federal-state relations brings thoughtful
furrows to the brow of Governor William Scranton of Pennsylvania. The
old Yale man was the focus of attention at Hamline University's Young
Republican Rally last week. About 50 students from Bethel went to
hear Scranton endorse Senator Goldwater's candidacy.

Sell Dictionaries
In Black Belt
by Bill Madsen
This past summer my Minnesota
license plates became a liability.
Thank goodness they speak of our
nature rather than our politicians;
our 10,000 lakes rather than our
great north wind. Selling diction-aries
in the Black Belt of southern
Virginia proved to be a hair-raising
experience for Vern Lewis and me.
When we asked our first ques-tion
about racial tension someone
answered "People are getting kill,
ed every week in this county—and
northerners are not popular." A
few hours later we encountered
three rather rough looking colored
men. Deciding to be friendly, we
introduced ourselves. "Hi—uh—I'm
from Minnesota, heh, heh—up
north you know—uh—that's where
Hubert . . ."
"Oh yeah," one of them broke
in, "We was up in Minneapolis
a while ago and unloaded a
coupla juice shops." (some of you
may remember this series of
liquor store robberies.) All this,
after some of us had been chas-ed
the night before by gun-tot-ing
hillbillies, left us with weak
At the other end of the spec-trum,
we frequently had young
colored children reach out to see
what white skin felt like.
Of a less personal nature are our
observations of the reactions to
the passage of the civil rights bill.
We spent a good deal of our spare
time on the sands of Virginia
Beach. The weekend after Presi-'
dent Johnson signed the bill, we
saw a number of colored people
on the beach for the first time. We
noted no disturbance of any sort.
A few miles inland, however,
one restaurant owner in our
town promptly sold out. Another,
when he saw two Negroes ap-proaching,
locked his doors say-ing,
"This won't work for long,
but when it doesn't, we'll think
of something else."
We spent some time in Prince
Edward county and found there
the least racial bitterness of any
area in which we sold dictionaries.
In that county the private white
school will be open again this term,
but for the first time in four years
the doors will open to what will
be the almost wholly Negro public
Fate of the private school de-pends
much (as does the coming
election, I think) on the battle
between pocket book and preju-dice.
Southerners cannot afford to
pay for two sets of schools forever.
My overall impression from the
summer is that our newspaper no
tions of the South fall far short,
of being adequate tools for arm
chair analysis of the total civil
rights problem.

Culture around Bethel can be
found in an abundance of things
to do, places to go and objects to
study. A Bethel student need have
no difficulty finding something
worthwhile to fill up those twelve
to fifteen hours he can call his own
each week.
This week the opportunity to
see Leorner and Loewe's classic,
"My Fair Lady," is open to all from
tonight through Sunday afternoon
at the St. Paul auditorium theatre.
Curtain time for evening per-formances
is 8:30 p.m. tonight,
tomorrow and Friday nights.
Saturday and Sunday the Broad-way
troupe will stage 2:30 p.m.
Tickets for the performances
may be obtained by calling the St.
Paul auditorium theatre for reser-vations.
St. Paul Civic Opera Association
presents the event which features
Michael Allinsor and Dorothy Coul-ter
in the leading roles.
Roberta Peters, Metropolitan
Opera coloratura, opens the re-cital
season with a performance
with the University Masterpiece
series tomorrow evening. The en-tire
series will feature four
groups and four recitalists.
Highlighting the entire series is
a Mexican ballet-folk dance group
that will present a panorama of
the CLARION Page 3
Mexican life. Tomorrow is the las t
day that tickets for the entire ser-ies
can be obtained in room 105,
Northrop Auditorium of the Uni-versity.
Of special interest to Bethel stu-dents
is the Schubert Concert Ser-ies.
Its varied programs spaced
through the year makes the series
ticket price of one dollar the buy
of the year.
Other concert series worth
noting are: Minneapolis Sym-phony
Orchestra, University Art-ist
Series, St. Paul Civic Orches-tra
Series and Unitarian Society
Art shows are now beginning to
show lustre as the school year
commences. Minneapolis Art Insti-tute
and Walker Art Gallery both
have new showings.
Smaller galleries such as Bogetta
on Hennepin Ave. also have show-ings
worth noting but lack the
quantity and variety the two larger
galleries contain.
Tyrone Guthrie Theatre is be-ginning
to wind up its season
but tickets to all four plays are
still available at one dollar and
a half for students.
Guthrie productions include:
"VolPone," by Ben Jonson, "The
Glass Menagerie," by Tennessee
Williams, "Henry V," by William
Shakespeare and "Saint Joan," by
Bernard Shaw.

Governor William Scranton of
Pennsylvania urged college stu-dents
to "think seriously of meth-ods
to improve our Federal sys-tem"
in a speech at Hamline Uni-versity,
Tuesday, Sept. 22.
Several hundred collegians, in-cluding
a large delegation from
Bethel's Young Republican club!
gathered to hear Scranton's re-marks
in support of the National
GOP ticket.
In challenging students to "re-think
the structure of our govern-mental
system," the governor con-trasted
the post World War II
European evolution of larger econ-omic
and political units (Common
Market, European Coal and Steel
Community) with the United States'
retention of its original forms.
While European sectional units
have grown stronger through co-operation,
our congress "labors un-der
archaic rules."
"The federal government will re-main
involved in every aspect of
life as long as its fiscal base in-cludes
70% of each tax dollar,"
continued the GOP leader. He en-couraged
greater participation in
political life at the local level, es-pecially
in improving voting re-cords.
The Pennsylvanian endorsed
presidential nominee Barry Gold-water
as "the man with enough
courage to restore balance in the
federal-state system" and leader-ship
for a vigorous foreign policy.
The governor's support of the
national ticket after the bitter pre-convention
fight was justified by
his belief that "unless we have a
strong two party system, our whole
political system will not endure."

The Royal football team traveled
to Lakeland Saturday for a non-conference
tilt and came away the
victor, 32-6. The victory marks the
third straight for the Royals this
year and extends the streak begin-ning
last season to seven games.
This is the longest winning streak
in Bethel's football history.
The action began amid driving
rain and strong winds with Lake-land
fumbling and Armstrong re-covering
for Bethel. The Royals
drove the ball deep into Lakeland
territory on runs by Nolin and
Miller. Gibson gathered in a Nolin
pass to draw first blood.
Bethel scored again with seven
minutes left in the half after
Benson blocked a Lakeland punt.
Miller drove the ball to the
seven, where a pass from Nolin
to Gibson provided the second
TD and the halftime margin,
Lakeland's only score came mid-way
through the third quarter,
when freshman halfback Mike
Richardson broke away for a 54
yard jaunt, making the score 12-6.
Bethel quickly rallied and march-ed
80 yards in 12 plays. Land slip-ped
over from the 11 for the third
touchdown. Peterson kicked the
extra point making the score 19-6,
Larry Stair's receptions of 35
and 15 yards, set up the fourth
touchdown. Price, Miller and
Nolin ground the ball down to
the ten, where Land again tallied
on an option from quarterback
The reserves took over midway
through the fourth quarter and
scored after driving 30 yards. A
Friberg to Peterson aerial made
the final score 32-6.
"A good time was had by all."
Glader Works
With Olympians
On African Tour
Eugene Glader has received final
confirmation of his selection as
the coach who will travel to West
Central Africa in November and
December on a track and field
good will tour.
Co-sponsored by the United
States Department of State and the
Amateur Athletic Union (AAU),
the touring track team will hold
track and field workshops and
demonstrations besides participat-ing
in limited competition.
As Glader states it, he will be
working with an "All-American
team." One fellow from each of
the eight track events is going to
teach his own specialty. Two of
these men, the broad jumper and
the 110 meter high hurdler are
competing in the Olympics in
Tokyo, Japan before they leave for
"Obviously, I won't be coaching
these men. My job will be to co-ordinate
their activities and to
speak on general training prac-tices,"
said Glader.
"It will be a tremendous learn-ing
experience for me to travel
with a track team that could prob-ably
beat any college team."
Glader's name was considered
for this position because he is
chairman of the field and track
committee for the Minnesota AAU.

Bethel's cross country team open-ed
their 1964-65 season Sept. 19
losing 18-41 to a strong St. Olaf
team. The meet was held at the
Royal's Como Park course.
The first three places were cap-tured
by St. Olaf, the winning time
being 19:18 over the 3.6 mile
Dale Rogers, the Royal's team
captain, finished fourth with a
time of 19:51. He was followed by
John Kuamme of St. Olaf and
freshman Bob Chryst of Bethel in
20:04 and 20:10 respectively.
Riley Combs, Bethel's third fin-isher,
placed ninth as he was un-able
to hold Olaf Aanrud and Ken.
Bank of St. Olaf over the final
mile lap. He was followed by Dave
Peterson of Bethel, Donrad Bergo
of St. Olaf and Ron Stone and Jim
Hammer of Bethel in 10th, 11th,
12th and 13th places respectively.
Macalester handed the Royal
harriers their second straight de-feat
with a 17-43 triumph at the
Como Park course. The Scouts cap-tured
the first four places, the
winning time being 19:27.
Dale Rogers finished fifth with
a time of 20:00. He was followed
by Riley Combs in sixth place. Bob
Chryst, Dave Peterson and Bill
Carlson finished 9th, 11th and 14th
Next Saturday the Royals travel
to Winona to try to avenge last
year's defeat. The following Sat ,
urday they return home to face a
strong River Falls squad.
The Bethel football team carries
a 3-0 record into its first confer-ence
game against the University
of Minnesota, Morris on Saturday,
Oct. 3, at Morris.
Coach Dick Borstad of Morris
has stated that he expects at least
5 wins this year out of the nine
game schedule. His squad is bob
stered by 13 returning lettermen,
six of whom are seniors. Highly
seasoned regulars at quarterback,
halfback, center and guard, with
lettermen depth at all except the
guard position, mark this year's
UMM squad as the team to beat.
Leading the offense for UMM
will be Steve Chaon, a converted
fullback, who in 1963 had the best
wits, Ron 1--fa_rris
rushing record on the team, gain ,
ing 248 yds. in 47 carries for a
5.28 average.
Bethel, sporting a perfect record,
also takes into Saturday's game a
group of seasoned veterans. Tackle
to tackle, it will be Selander,
Gause, Rynkiewich, Brunzell and
Bloom—all veterans of 3 years or
Ends Stair and Gibson, both sen-ior
lettermen, along with an ex-perienced
backfield of Miller,
Land, Price and Nolin, add depth
to Bethel's aerial and ground at-tack.
The same fine defensive unit
that held Hamline scoreless and
limited Sioux Falls and Lakeland
to two and one touchdowns respec-tively,
will be put to another test
on Saturday.
Coach Halleen, commenting on
the coming game, said "This could
easily be one of our tougher games
this year. A good number of re-turnees,
a good defense, and an ex-cellent
coach will make this one a
real tough one to win."

A great newspaper man named William Howard Russell could have
been describing the destruction of the Hamline Pipers in Midway
Stadium when he wrote:
"They swept proudly past, glittering in the morning sun, all in the
pride and splendor of war. We could hardly believe the evidence of
our senses! Surely that handful of men was not going to charge an
army in position. It was but true—their desperate valor knew no bounds
and far removed was it from its so-called "better part of discretion."
Russell was not, however, writing for the Bethel CLARION. His
story appeared in the "London Times" of 1854 and was describing a
cavalry outfit's charge into Russian artillery. A poet later used the
newspaperman's story as a basis for the epic, "The Charge of the
Light Brigade."
Russell concluded that there was only one over-sight in the "desper-ate
valor." It simply wasn't sensible to fight cannons with sabers.
There was only one thing wrong with the Piper's invasion of
Midway Stadium on September 12. The same problem plagued Sioux
Falls and Lakeland the following weekends. It isn't logical to launch
an attack on a disciplined, hard-hitting, spirited team like Bethel's and
expect to win. They're the type that make unbeatable armies—they
just don't quit!
The defensive team of Miller, Armstrong, Gause, Bloom, Land,
Brand, Benson and Putnam posed an insurmountable problem for Ham-line.
Time and again they suppressed the Hamline drive at crucial
points while looking like "an army in position." Stair, Gibson, Gehrke
and Price spearheaded the backfield attack.
The formidable front wall of Gause, Selander, Brunzell, Bloom and
Rynkiewich continually opened holes through which the backfield team
of Land, Miller, Price and Nolin scampered.
The bugle blowing has now long since stopped and the reporters
have taken over. Don Riley from the St. Paul Dispatch has stated that
"Bethel is the best team in St. Paul." Bigger and more detailed arti-cles
in the "Dispatch" and the "Tribune" prove that Bethel is com-ing
up in the world.
Dr. Lundquist summed it all up perfectly as he was overheard after
the Big Win saying, "It looks as though the world is finally coming

40's Need a Fix
40's Need a Fix
I'm 99% sure that the production schedule for the 40 cannot be accelerated. The supply chain for it, including most importantly battery assembly, is locked into contractual agreements. I'm sure that Tesla does know the exact earliest possible date that the 40s will be rolling off the line. However, any number of things may cause production to slip, so Tesla is hesitant to announce a firm date.
I've been through this with new BMW models as well. (for instance, I'm still waiting for the firm availability date for the i3) And need we mention the iPhone? Apple doesn't generally make any product announcements until a few weeks before the item is available to buy.
The sad truth is that when the 40s are available, a person that reserved this month may get their car only 4-6 weeks after one of the early pioneers that reserved over a year ago. When I get my Red in a few months, the same rule will apply. Standing in a long line just doesn't offer much privilege in the big scheme of things, but without all of your cash deposits, Telsa may not have survived. You have our eternal gratitude!
It's obviously a problem to make a car that's only 50% less limited than the EV competition.
Another possible fix for the 40 is coming.
An Audi hybrid? Wrong forum.
There. Fixed that for ya.
40s aren't going into production (if anyone hasn't read the blog already).
well, 40's: you just got "a fix". Wow. Way to go Tesla IMO.
That is what I call pampering. You get a better car then ordered and have the option to upgrade later to 60kWh and SC. Well done TM.
@mbergman You should have checked your calendar. It wasn't a 4/1 joke. ;)
For other 40's buyers who have waited with me, stop into a Tesla showroom again before your car is scheduled for delivery. It's a great way to re-energize your spirits after such a long wait. If you talk to the right people and ask the right questions, you may discover a few more unexpected surprises no one is mentioning yet.
For 60's buyers, enjoy the free superchargers. TM didn't forget you and you probably don't need an 85.
For 85's, well, you're already driving the best cars on earth, with access to superchargers, many months earlier than the rest of us. Thank you for leading the way and supporting TM.
I hope to see you all on the road. Happy Trails!
@eAdopter - SC is not free for 60 kWh. Still have to buy the option.
Wow, the best possible solution. This 40kwh reservation holder is delighted!
eAdopter, I'm impressed.
First time I've been pleased with anything I've heard from Tesla in a very long time.
+1,000 TESLA! I think this thread can now be closed. We got our fix :)
@sftesla: did you give them this idea (from your post on 2/22/13)?
Ha ha! I was just thinking the same thing. In any case, I'm glad it worked out for all the 40s.
This is great news
How's that for an incentive to stick with the plan!
Despite our hypercynical modern culture- most industrial corporations DO WANT TO PLEASE THE CUSTOMER. I work for one. It kills me to see the negatives in the press. Great job TMC with a clever win-win resolution!
Nice job Tesla. This was the correct move. You have restored much lost faith and trust.
Are we sure this is not a prank? I did not get any email from Tesla.
Someone could have hacked the tesla web site, I suppose.
Would be good if true. Even if you don't buy the fix to get 60, you should have increased battery longevity.
@larryh: yes, Tesla sent out a press release e-mail as well. Plus, I think Elon tweeted about it.
Boom! This is great news. Very happy to learn that I will have the option to upgrade to 60kWh and supercharging when I can afford to do so!
Thank you Elon, and the Tesla Team! Feels like I won the lottery :)
And, just now, I did in fact get the email.
I will not be upgrading since I drive 6 miles a day but with 2 trips to wine country per year at about 80 miles.
Alright, were is my damn car!
(And how do I get rid of my Lexus GS300?)
were => where
Upgrade cost is $1,500 more compared with doing it before production including SC. It's $11,000 to get 60 kWh range and $2,500 to activate SC.
Something to consider perhaps?
I never thought I would use the range of the 60 since I have other vehicles for long range trips. On the other hand I do like saving money on a future upgrade if I can make use of it more often.
If I wait though, will it really cost me an extra $1k for an upgrade?
Consider this, in California your tax and registration fees are based on the cars sale price. That means that every year my registration is going to be less because the car cost $10k less to start. So when do you break even? I don't know but it makes me feel better thinking about paying less taxes.
Can I get an amen to less taxes!

Sony CEO: We Were Hacked By Freetards Who Just Want Everything Free
from the freedomtards,-perhaps deptAh, delusion in the CEO suite. Sony CEO Howard Stringer has been struggling to deal with the fact that pretty much everyone* in the tech world now hates his company. He famously called the month or so of downtime for the PlayStation Network, due to Sony's own failure to properly secure its servers, "a hiccup." He's also continued Sony's standard practice of going to war against makers, hackers and innovators, by trying to close off everything and then suing anyone who dares to try to do more with the products they thought they'd bought.
Stringer, at a recent Sony shareholder meeting, had to deal with critics concerning the PSN downtime, and his response was not to take any of the blame, or to admit that Sony might have been at fault, but rather to say that hackers pick on the company because it likes to "protect" its intellectual property:
"We believe that we first became the subject of attack because we tried to protect our IP (intellectual property), our content, in this case videogames," Stringer told shareholders at Tuesday's meeting in response to a question about the background to the incident.Of course, that's an interesting version of revisionist history. There are all sorts of theories as to why Sony got hacked, with Occam and his trusty Razor suggesting the simplest answer: because Sony had crazy weak security that would allow malicious hackers to make off with useful information with which they could profit. But even if we grant Stringer's unsupported assertion was true, what set many people off (though, not necessarily these hackers) was the fact that Sony sued George Hotz for doing nothing more than helping to re-enable a feature that Sony had marketed as part of the PS3... and then had retroactively disabled. That's not "protecting Sony's IP." That's breaking a product and false advertising... and then suing people for trying to help make your products more valuable.
But Stringer apparently wasn't done there. You see, the real problem is just those damn freetards:
"These are our corporate assets," Stringer told the meeting, "..and there are those that don't want us to protect them, they want everything to be free."Seriously, Howard? This has absolutely nothing to do with people wanting stuff for free. People are pissed because you're suing people who are trying to improve your products -- the ones they actually paid for (yes, with real money). If anything, they want "free" as in speech, not free as in beer. They're looking for the freedom to tinker and to expand and to build.
And you're giving them the opposite.
And let's can the crap in which you pretend that Sony has to "protect" its intellectual property in this manner. It doesn't. You can treat customers right, even without being overprotective. Why, just look at Samsung, one of your biggest competitors. When it came out with a new device, rather than freaking out about people jailbreaking it, it sent free devices to some of the top modders, and asked them to mod and hack them faster...
That's called treating your community right, not treating them as criminals. It's not because people want everything to be free. People are quite often happy to pay for something of scarce value to them. Where they get upset is when you make that product less valuable by locking it down in anti-consumer ways.
So, no, you weren't hacked by freetards. You were hacked because you had dreadful security, and everyone's pissed not because they want stuff for free, but because you treat them like crap.
* Yes, slight exaggeration. But no more than calling over a month downtime on a popular gaming platform a "hiccup."
