Hello, and welcome to this presentation of the STM32 Cube Monitor RF Tool. Part of the comprehensive STM32 Cube Software Development Toolkit, this tool is designed to help developers test and optimize code used to manage the wireless communication features of STM32WB microcontrollers. Using the STM32 Cube Monitor RF Tool, developers can test the STM32WB's Bluetooth low energy, open thread, and 802.15.4 radio frequency functions. The target can be an STM32 nuclear board, a USB dongle from ST, or any customer device. The tool is connected to the target device via a serial connection, a virtual COM port over USB, or a physical UART interface. When the tool is launched, the user must select one of three modes, 802.15.4 RF. Select this mode to test functions and applications based on the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless protocol. BLE, select this mode for any function related to Bluetooth low energy or BLE network protocol. Open thread. Select this mode to send commands using open thread software based on the low power thread mesh network protocol. If the option Remember My Choice is checked, the tool automatically starts in the previously selected mode. This slide presents the features used for testing the BLE stack application command interface, or ACI. When BLE mode is selected, users can perform various tests. First, it is possible to send ACI commands. ACI commands are standardized commands used to communicate with the BLE stack. The tool displays the list of commands supported by the STM32WB device, and for each command, a list of its parameters and their description. Another important feature is that it can be used to test RF communications. The tool can be used to send or receive tones or packets. It is also possible to use two devices to evaluate the quality of the BLE communication link. The STM32 cube monitor RF tool can also flash software on a device without a wired connection. Using the over-the-air programming or OTA feature, firmware or data can be loaded on a device wirelessly. The tool can also create beacons. In a few seconds, the device can be configured as a BLE beacon. It is also possible to configure the board in advertising mode to check the power consumption and explore the services available on remote devices. Here, the tool is connected to the device via a serial port. The device must have the transparent mode firmware. This firmware configures the UART communication and forwards the ACI commands to the BLE stack. To connect the device, connect the device to your PC using the STM32 cube monitor RF tool via its USB or UART port. Wait for the device to be detected. If VCP or USB serial converters are used, additional drivers may be required. Select the virtual COM port from the drop-down list. Click open to start communication with the target device. If the connection is successful, the device information is displayed on the right side. If communication is not possible, an error message is displayed. The ACI command panel is used to prepare ACI commands that will be sent to the target. The user interface is separated into two main areas. The command part on the left side includes the list of commands and the parameters for each command. The log area on the right side displays the details of each selected element. It is possible to use the search filter to query the command list and to filter commands by category. There are three steps to send a command. Select the command from the list. The filters and search parameters can be used to quickly find commands. Enter the correct command parameters. Click send command. The log is updated with the sent command and the result returned by the device. Click the log area to display packet details. More details are available using the plus button. The RF test pane is organized in two areas. The configuration part on the top and the results part at the bottom. It is possible to perform various tests. Packet transmission, packet reception, tone transmission and packet error rate or PER computation. The test is performed with two devices. The first one sends the packets while the second one counts the received packets. The PER is computed based on the number of packets sent versus the number of packets received. To perform an RF test, first select the required RF test. You can select the transmitter test to put the device in emission mode, the receiver test to put the device in receive mode or the packet error rate test to measure performance. When one option is selected, click select test mode. The selection panel is replaced by the test panel. The current panel selection is indicated in the blue bar at the top. It is useful to see which panel is displayed and to navigate to other panels. The tone test can be used with measurement equipment to verify the transmission level of the device or to verify the frequency accuracy. To start a tone test, set the tone parameters, transmission power or PA level and frequency. Click start tone. The board is configured to transmit a continuous tone. The button changes to stop tone. To stop the test, click stop tone. The transmitter test is used to send packets. The transmission power level and frequency, the length and content of the data and the physical modulation can be selected. After pressing start TX, packets are sent indefinitely until stop TX is pressed. After the end of the transmission, the number of transmitted packets is displayed. The receiver test is used to receive packets from another device. The frequency and modulation can be selected. The reception starts when start RX is pressed. The number of valid packets received is counted until stop RX is pressed. The packet error test involves two devices. When no specific test equipment is available, it is possible to use two STM32WB devices to test the Bluetooth low energy link. One device is used to send packets and the second one receives the packets. It is possible to compute the packet error rate from the number of transmitted and received packets. The STM32CubeMonitorRF tool automatically counts the number of sent and received packets. It can also perform multi-channel measurements. Select the PER test mode. There are four steps to launch the test. Step one, connect the tester device. The device under test or DUT is expected to be already connected. For the tester, select the COM port of the second device and press connect. If the connection is successful, the tester information is displayed. Click configure tester to go to the next step. Step two, configure the tester. The transmission parameters of the tester can be configured in this screen. The parameters are the same as those of the TX tests. Select the parameters and press configure DUT. Step three, configure the receiver or DUT. The parameters for the receiver are the same as those of the RX test. Set the parameters and then press configure param. This is the last step. Configure the test procedure. To perform this test on multiple channels, select PER tests on multiple channels. When the box is ticked, the tool measures the PER of each channel. The tester and the DUT are tuned on the same frequency. And the test is started for the duration indicated in the measurement period box. It is possible to read the received signal strength indication or RSSI that displays the reception level. When get RSSI is selected, the tool performs RSS measurement at regular intervals. The measurement results can be saved in a file. This is convenient for storing test results. When the options are selected, click start test. The test starts and begins measuring. When PER tests on multiple channels is selected, the test stops when all channels have been scanned. Click stop test to get the results. It is possible to display the results in a graph or in a large text format. Use the blue icon at the top right corner of the result area to see the display mode. The graph view gives an overview of the measurements in real time. The large text format can be visible far from the computer when it is useful to test over long distances. A script can be used to simplify the sending of repetitive tasks via ACI commands. A sequence of ACI commands is stored in a text file and are played back by the tool. To start the script, select the file to play. Click start script. The script is displayed on the main window and the current line is highlighted with green. Press start stop to stop or restart the script. The script syntax is simple. Lines starting with a hash symbol are comments. The send instruction is used to send an ACI command. The tool encodes the command and the parameters and sends it to the device. The wait instruction is used to insert a pause. There are more commands available to display user messages and create loops. Please refer to the user manual for detailed description of available commands. Now let's go through open thread mode. Thread is an IOT protocol created for building and home automation. While BLE is very efficient for wearables, thread is the best fit for static objects inside a building. Thread protocol uses IEEE 802.15.4 links to create a mesh network and devices communicate with each other using the IPv6 network protocol. The thread connectivity offered by the STM32WB devices is based on the open thread stack. The RF tool uses the thread command line API or CLI to communicate with the open thread stack. Connecting to a thread device is similar to that of a BLE device. First, the device must be loaded with the open thread firmware. The firmware is provided in the STM32 cube package examples. The name is thread CLICMD. Note if the Cortex-M4 firmware is changed, for example from BLE, you may have to update the Cortex-M0 firmware to ensure that it is compatible with the open thread stack. The virtual COM port or VCP driver must be installed if a VCP is used. Connect your PC to the device. Wait for the COM port enumeration. Select the correct port from the drop-down list and press connect. The open thread screen is divided into two areas. The top part is the command area. This part provides a list of commands with additional information about each command and the parameters to fill in. It is very useful for commands that are not frequently used and avoiding having to check the documentation to get the parameter descriptions. The bottom part is the terminal area. The commands and responses are logged in this area. It is also possible to directly type a command in the line at the bottom. To send a command, select the command from the command list. The commands are grouped in a tree view. The commands with a triangle on the left have sub-commands. It is possible to search commands and sub-commands using the search box at the top. When a command is selected, the information about the command and the list of the related parameters are displayed on the right. Enter the parameter values, then click send command to send the command to the device. The list of sent commands is displayed in the terminal window. The tool stores the parameter values used for the sent command. When the command is selected again, the parameters are already set to its previously used values. Some commands can be used to retrieve or set parameter data. When these commands are selected, the send command button is converted into two buttons. Read param is used to check the parameter value. No parameters are sent. Set param is used to write values. The parameter values are used to build the command. The terminal area displays the communication with the device. It is possible to use the bottom line to directly enter an open thread command. Put the cursor in the bottom area and type command. Place enter to send the command. Use the up and down keys to select a previous command from the list to send it again. It is possible to clear the windows or the history list using the icons at the top right corner. IEEE 802.15.4 RF mode is used to test RF devices that operate using the open thread or ZigBee communication protocol. The RF mode user interface is similar to the BLE RF test panel. The PER test can be used to perform continuous measurements on a single channel or a sequence of single measurements on multiple RF channels. For more information related to the STM32 cube monitor RF tool, please refer to the documents and videos listed in this slide.


Welcome to ToffeeTV, it is the Premier League show, me and Ned are going to break down last weekend's games and they started with Liverpool away from Nottingham Forest in a game that you would think Liverpool have just beat Man City, only going to be one win out here and then this is why people love the Premier League because Nottingham Forest get a 1-0 win and Liverpool, who I was astonished to find out have not won an away game this season and continued and that's a big blow for Liverpool, but a big positive for Forrest. They just seem to be one week on, one week off, I think they got beat by United then they beat Bournemouth 9-0 and then a week later they drop points at Goodersham, fortunately for us and I just think this is a game, I thought they'd kick on off the city and then go into bottom of the table for Forrest who only had one win at the time, I think that would be a good place to go to get your second win and then they can go and get the third and fourth and I think Forrest are surprised, I think Forrest look like they could, Forrest are starting to, I think they're probably their best performance because they look like a real team and they're starting to really gel on that throw. They got a draw didn't they, last week and obviously they've backed her up with a win at home and that's huge for them, you know, trying to get themselves away from that bottom three obviously they're still there at the moment but big defeat for Liverpool, no goals, no goals which is probably a worse thing for them, you know even when obviously they got a 1-0 win last week against City which was huge but obviously before they went to Arsenal they got beat 3-2 at least, they got a couple of goals but I think the forward line, I know it's been in and out this season different players and stuff and no Dias and stuff but one player that they've relied on last few years is definitely obviously Mo Salah he's having a very indifferent season, I think in the Champions League he's absolutely flying but in the Premier League it's just not quite there at the moment and the lads over and the ladies on the playlist on 888 Sports YouTube channel have been chatting about the biggest flops of the season so far. Okay, Mohamed Salah is not having a good season but he has been unplayable for six and therefore the credit is so in the bank that the quality will come back I'm sure. Will it though? But there's three... What? Will it though? I'm asking a general question. Do you know what I was about to say Deflect? What? I reckon that there's three players you go Salah, Son, Stirling, the talent is there, aren't we overestimated, like is Jack Greenish as good as we think he is? Is Jadon Sancho as good as we think he is? No. What's the problem then? Should they be on this list at all or are we expecting more? The reason they're on their list is because one cost 75, one cost 75. That's not their fault. It's not their fault. That's not their fault. Unfortunately it is. No, you wouldn't put James Wopraus on this list, would you? No.  They come with prestige because they've shown, like when Greenish was at Villa, you can see there's ability there, don't get me wrong, he was the main man and it is different. I had my reservations about him going to sit in the first place. Sancho when he was at Dortmund, he was balling out, he's playing well, and then Champions League games doing it, you know what I mean? There's enough mileage in their tanks to look at them and say them taking another step up, right, they've got to be in there. And they've made it to the biggest teams in World 4. Exactly. So I don't think it's unfair. What I do want to talk about is Mohamed Salah. If you look at players, right, if you look at players who have signed big contracts with the Willy Wonny kind of thing, Abame Yang, David Deheya, you've seen it where players have signed and it just wasn't quite the same. I'm not saying he's done and dusted, I'm asking you, as a Liverpool fan and you guys at home, have we seen the best of Mohamed Salah? Is it only downwards from him? So there you go. Salah, is he one of the big flops of the season so far? It's hard because this time last year he was probably the best player in the world. And you know, I remember in the summer they were bringing in Darren Nunes, he was a proper number nine. And they haven't played that way. They sort of had Salah and Mane, they're wide forwards. So whether it's a change of system or a change of where they've been playing, whether it's Mane leaving, I don't know, but he just seems, he can't find that groove. Whether he just needs a game where he just scores two or three goals and then he can kick on it. Or if it's confidence thing, I don't know. He's still a dangerous player. He's still a world-class player. It's not like he's been atrocious. Maybe it's just that goal and I think when people notice a player hasn't been scoring the goals normally, they get this narrative that they're not performing. I think what we've seen in the Champions League, it's still all there. And I think the break actually for the World Cup, because obviously he's not going the World Cup. The break in the World Cup will probably do him really well. It'll probably do the whole Liverpool team really well because they're struggling with injuries and probably people don't like to use it. But this is a team that, for the last few years, have been just on it every single year and the same players have been going through it. So, yeah, you'll have to wait and see. You can watch the rest of that video over on AT&T Sports YouTube channel on the playlist. Make sure to let them know. Another player you mentioned here was Jack Grealish. He was part of the Manchester City team that beats Brighton-Ho Valby in 3-1. He went off after 77 minutes. But again, Harlan getting another two goals and obviously one was a penalty, but his face one was just brilliant. He just bodies anyone. It's not a foul, I don't care what anyone says. It's not really foul, but make sure he wins the ball, goes around the keeper, body check to defend and put it in. It's just physically frightening to be that fast and that strong. Defenders must just start sitting as deep as they can because he's an absolute machine, that man. But just going back to what they were saying there on the video about Jack Grealish is an interesting one, isn't he? Is he that good? Have we over-hyped him because he's 100 million? Have we over-hyped Plays like Sancho because of the money they've paid for him? I mean, I'd throw a Charleston in that group as well. I know he's injured at the moment, but is he another one? The Plays tag leads us to believe that he's going to be utterly amazing and if he doesn't back up, back her up then somehow he's a flop because I think Jack Grealish is a very, very solid at the moment. I mean, squad players maybe doing them down a little bit, but I think he's learning more and more about the system, the PEP system every day and you get a little bit more out of him. It's not flashy, he's not the Villa player, but that's just the way it is. When Tyrion, he went to Barcelona, he wasn't the player that was at Arsenal. He was a player who had all the skills and the intelligence, which is the most important thing, to play in this Barcelona system that PEP wanted, but he didn't use any of those. He wasn't like the player he was and he said this himself. He didn't even really like it, but he did it and I think that's where people have done something like Grealish as well is that he's laying in the system and he's going to be a cog. I don't think he's ever going to be the standout player. He's going to be a cog, but he's like a lot of players at Man City. He's going to be a really important cog. I don't think it's just something about Grealish. It's something you have to understand about PEP. Grealish, what you like to do at Villa is, and it's why he was so important to Villa, hence why he cost City £100 million, not necessarily what the players were. That was a bio close. What Grealish liked doing is to drop deep, get the ball and run with it, and that's what he was good at. He's gone into City and like a lot of players at City, it takes time to learn the job what PEP wants them to do. It's not just Grealish. Mahrez took time to get used to it. Azuz did, Sterling did. It's just the way PEP plays. Like I said, Harlan's a machine and he's not even human. You know, an excellent 3-1 win. De Bruyne got the third after Trossard had got a goal, which I think really the keeper should have saved. But a great goal by De Bruyne. Good weekend for them after obviously work on the last weekend. We'll get a bit of Liverpool, but a really good weekend for them. The other three-clock kickoff on Saturday was obviously Everton's Gaming, there's Crystal Palace, Cavaloon, Gordon and Dwight McNeill getting there. Probably Everton's best win this season, wasn't he? Sometimes I'm accused of being a bit of a downer, but Palace didn't really come to town. That's down to Everton being so good. I don't think Palace was shocking. Everton was just a good performance, energetic. Everyone played their art out. It was a good tactical change by Frank Lampard. Obviously Crystal Palace were missing an important player. We've checked the court, they put Millervoyevich in, who's not the most mobile replacement for a player who gets on the pitch and they got caught out. I would think that would have been midfield. It just seems to be winning every midfield battle. Our problem so far in the past few games was turning that into goals, and once we find those goals and unlock teams, then teams really haven't got a chance. Yeah, so really good win for Everton and they'll be open to back her up against Fulham who we'll talk about in a moment. This Saturday was Chelsea vs Manchester United. These games often get built up. I don't think this one did too much. I think it was a bit of an afterthought. I don't know why, but obviously Chelsea under Green Potter have been really good so far this season, although they were coming off the back of their draw against Brentford. Manchester United recently have picked up as well after the pacing against Manchester City. But it turned out to be a 1-1 draw with a couple of late goals. Giuginio got a penalty 87 minutes and then Casamiro got his first goal in the 94th minute or 90 plus four because you can't actually have 94 minutes. But again, we talked so much, we spoke about VAR and so much we spoke about technology, but goal line technology showed how important it is for the header. It was a good header. It was a decent save pushed on to the post and I think in the old days this one would have been very, very hard to give. You'd be guessing. We've seen some go further and not been given. This is where goal line technology is so good and again, if we could get other elements of VAR like the offside, this cut and drive, this black and white, then it would make the game so much different and a big moment for the header, for Casamiro to get his first goal, but it shows how good goal line technology is. Yeah, I think Tanag would be happy with the point there. I don't think Potter's having such a honeymoon period. I think he's gone into Chelsea and what he's doing is looking OK. So I think Potter would have been disappointed dropping to a few points so late, but I think both teams respectively would be happy with the point. Yeah, I think you're actually right. I think Green Potter's had a very steady start at Chelsea. I don't think he's done anything mad. I think he's just gone in there and I don't think it's been like, oh my God, look at this. I think he's just been steady. And sometimes that's better. They've done OK in the Champions League of late as well and I think it's better sometimes to have a nice steady start. And obviously Manchester United in good form as well. So at this stage of the season, these games, both managers probably look at them and think, you know, I'll take a point today. So probably Chelsea would be disappointed for conceding such a late goal, but they kept having a point, kept Chelsea above Manchester United, Chelsea on 21 points, Manchester United on 20 after both playing 11 games. So they'll, you know, Chelsea would be happy just because, sorry, Manchester United would be happier because they've won a point. And the Chelsea's hasn't got away from him as well. Both Chelsea be looking, thinking we'll be still above them when we haven't been. I think Chelsea, obviously they've got a couple of games left, but I think that break will be massive for Chelsea. Potter, you've not been there long. He's come in not mid-season, but during the season. Yeah, but Chelsea will be one of those teams, I imagine. A lot of plays, yeah. We'll have a lot of mission. True. Moving on to Sunday, lots of games on Sunday, lots of big ties that involve teams that are in the bottom half of the table. And, you know, as the Villu just sacked Stephen Gerrard, played a home to Brentford, and basically instantaneous to show the difference. 3-0 in 15 minutes. 3-0 up in 15 minutes, and then the 4-0, Bailey got one after two minutes, then Ings got a couple of goals, and then Olly Watkins scored a blow, Brentford out the grand. And it shows you, I mean, in one way it shows you, what changing a manager can do, but on the other hand, you're looking and going, why didn't you all do this? Yeah, yeah. I know you might have liked the fella, but why didn't you all do this? I know there was changes, by the way, you know, the likes of John McGinn went out the team, and things like that, and Coutinho went out the team, and I think Ings come back into it, and Watkins, and you know, it was more of maybe what the fans wanted to see, rather than what the manager wanted to see, Stephen Gerrard, but that is a really, really good win for Villu. I think everyone had said, and they lost the dressing room, I think the Coutinho thing played a big part in that, because Coutinho was Gerrard's, you know, star man or something, he doesn't deserve to play, to be honest, and I think the plays, I think that caused a bit of a sticky situation with the plays, and it showed on Sunday that you take a toxic manager out of a situation, and the players can shine. And that's modern football, the players aren't happy, they'll play, they're not happy, and they'll show that at shooting game. How wrong it is, it's just the mop pad. No, I know, and I do agree with Gerrard, that the players are the disgrace, but it does happen, it happens all the time. Man management is probably as big as ever really. Yeah, and what I would say is, say what though, I mean, great win for Villen, and they've got, they've, you know, they've obviously made a decision that they've brought, obviously, the new manager in. Unai Emery? Yeah, Unai Emery, who obviously we've seen here before at Arsenal, and really, really good culture. They've made that decision, and he'll have the time, when the break comes in three weeks, or a couple of weeks or whatever it is, to get them on the training pitch. You'll have a win though, as soon as that's over as well. Yeah, yeah. But I'd say Brentford though, recently away, I mean, five at Newcastle, four at Villen, I know the home records, decently drew with Chelsea, they'll nail, but after having a really good start, they've sort of been dragged back into the mix now. Defensively shock it. I know they've gone to a back, back four a few times this season, they've lost a couple defenders as well, but they just keep leaking goals away from home. Some of the goals, they could have easily kept out against Villen, they just gifted it, so they moved the ball to be honest, but... Moving on, I think the latest manager on the pressure is Atley, United. Jesse Marsh. Did you hear his after-match?  I was a player, and as a manager, I've never gone through this. Yes. Premier League, mate.  Obviously, Fulham beat them 3-2 after Leeds had taken the lead, but again, Fulham proved they can score goals everywhere. Yeah, yeah. But I think he said after the game as well, wouldn't know you me, as a fan, he said, I'm not here to talk about tactics and stuff like that, what are you, are you here to talk about that? You have to show the fans, obviously the fans shown how unhappy they were after the game. Yes. So that was a chance for him to settle the fans. Yeah. Pretty much like what Martin has used to doing and just say, listen, we're building something.  Excitable. He's like, what are you off his head? No, he likes to, like, put himself out there to, and I get that in a way, because that can be good, that can take the pressure off the players, because he, at the moment, is sort of like, you don't even really worry too much about the Leeds players, it's all about the manager, but this isn't Leeds last season, but certainly when he came in, we're terrible, and that's not going to be an easy job, and I don't think he should rush to judgment, certainly not before the break anyway. I don't, the way they are isn't, you know, there's a couple of, a couple of wins or a win. Yeah, yeah. And the top half. I know they're dropping down. I know, I think the Gerard thing was a different situation, because I think people genuinely disliked him at the club and the players disliked him, so that was a hard one, but, yeah, they'll be disappointed losing at home, losing three goals, but great win for Fulham as well, absolutely fine, another good win, then the top half of the table, they're scoring goals, and Marco Silva's doing a really, really good job there. I think Mitrovic, doing with Fulham is, they've got players who had played in Premier League before, I went down with Fulham, and they've stayed with them, had a really good season in the championship now, they've come back up, and the effect has had on players like Mitrovic, you didn't score many at all when they went down. They had a great season scoring, 40-odd goals, and they've come up, and he's on nine goals already, and something like 11 points, which is crazy. Yeah. Moving on, the league leader's asked on into Southampton, so he really needed to jack it, but couldn't hold on and Armstrong, Stuart Armstrong scored in the 65th minute to make it one. Pretty even game, and I'll ask that more possession than them, but shots wise, three shots on target, you know, pretty much even on all the other counts, maybe apart from possession, Southampton had way more corners, so Southampton definitely deserved something out of the game, and obviously, Arsenal went on and lost in the Europa League, so it's been a bit of a wobble for them. This week, there's still two points cleared at the top, from Manchester City, but Manchester City breathing down the next, you know, now, so it'll be interesting moving forward. I think when, I think other fans looking in, and I suppose Arsenal as well, before they actually say, oh, Arsenal, we won a top four finish, and we'd look at Arsenal and go around top four, but I think when, certainly the fans would fail. When you're going to get off to a start like that, and with the momentum, and you're winning every week, when you drop points like that, there's always something inside, you're like, oh, we could go and win this, or the fact that them dropping points, I'd seem like Southampton, I think they'd be go to. Yeah, and they've got a great opportunity to bounce back this weekend, they're playing for us, they're on one side, so that's a great opportunity for them to bounce back. I still think that, as a team so far, I think they're doing better than anyone else predicted they do, to be honest. Easily better, Leicester went to Wolves, and had four shots on target, and scored four goals. Wolves had five shots on target, and didn't score a goal. They had five shots on target, eight shots off target, and Leicester made five, and the whole game scored four Tealmans, which would be unbelievable, by the way. Smashed it. That's like their Beatles in it. Those four are like their Beatles. Fab Four. They're like their Fab Four. It was very Paul Scholes-esque goal, wasn't it, from Tealmans. Smashed it. I'm surprised he's not gone to a, you know, like a club like Liverpool, or a city or something like that, but he's kept hold of him, and he's doing really well. Well, he's in the last year of his contact, isn't he? So we will go somewhere at the end of the season. Someone will get a bargain there. Good win for Leicester. That moved them up to 11 points, and, you know, when you consider that, you know, 15 points is nine, or 16 points is eight. You know, the pack above them, like they've ever in Palace, Bournemouth, Aston Villa, is only a point away. So they've brought, put themselves massively back in, you know. Yeah, yeah. I think that will give them confidence. I think they really poured offensively to get off this season, so one of the clean sheet will do really well. I think, well, Brendan Rodgers is it, I know he was under a lot of pressure, certainly early in the season, but he's a good manager, and you'll get him organised, and he's obviously a good result. And obviously, that put them above Wolves. Wolves are on nine points there in the bottom three, in the 19th place. They haven't got a manager yet. I think they've decided to leave the coaching charts on next year. But, again, they're on nine points. You know, they're a win away from being, again, back in the pack. It's not, at this stage, it's not a massive drama where they are. Yeah. You know, if this is the way, and it doesn't always work out like this, but if this is the way it's run they have all season, they've got a great opportunity, lest they're back in the pack after picking up a few points. So, I think another team there that could do with the break already, this fella's got the job till next season, so see what he can do next year, isn't it? Well, yeah. It's straight, I just think, sacking Bruno, Bruno Lage, and they've got, not really much plan what to do after it, except leaving this fella in. In the other game, so it's like the big, another big game of the day, Newcastle went to Tottenham, and Newcastle basically did whatever they couldn't do the week before. They took their chances, Wilson capitalising on a loriche mistake, and then chipping it over them. Almeric, another good goal just before half-time. Kane got one back but it wasn't enough. Two mistakes from Luis for me, I thought he was absolutely shocking. That, I don't know what he's doing, probably expecting a foul or something from the Wilson, but that goalkeeping from the Almeric goal is absolutely shocking. It is, he goes right under them. He's guarding their post, and if he goes far corner, you've done your job, he runs out of him and just falls on the floor. But again, it's a game where it's really, really close, and all it is is one team took two chances and the other team could only take one, and that's the thing if you've got to take your chances. Before Kane take their chances and end up getting beat 2-0, it's really comfortable. Yeah. If you take the chances again, the first half, the game's completely different and if you are defensively solid, like Newcastle are, unlike Everton, Artful Point, if you can take your chances and then get solid, you make it really hard for the opposition, I think. What Newcastle got to take a lot of credit for there is that they, they managed to go the last half an hour, you know, because when it got to 2-1 there, I was expecting, I honestly was expecting Tottenham to get a second.  They didn't really do much as well, to be honest. Newcastle have done brilliantly there, and... They're starting to show the difference now of what they've been doing. Well, they just... I think Eddie Howell came on a season, he made a quite solid at home, picked up a few points away, and now they're starting to get, you know, wins away, which is really good. They're just really organised, they've got 21 points out of 12 games, plus 10 on the goal difference, which is absolutely huge as well, I think. They're just a very well-organised team, and a very balanced team. They've got a decent defence, a decent midfield, and a decent attack. They brought in players that should really smart-buy as well. Both players in the needed. There's no... I don't think there's any... There's no fat, there's no waste, it's, again, go back to Evan, it's where Evan, I've got her so wrong over the years. And the final game of the weekend, was Monday Night West Hampton, on Bournemouth, Bournemouth being doing very well of late. They took the lead on the 45th minute, Zuma, and got a penalty in the last minute through Ben Rahme. Both of them with a little bit of controversy. Zuma, volleyball's the ball, basically. It goes back into play, off a corner, and then he gets a header on it, one nil. The VAR determined that the handball wasn't on paper, so therefore it's fine. Yeah, the problem I've got with that is if a defender does that, it's a penalty. Yeah. And then, at the end of the game, Bournemouth giving away a penalty very similarly. See, here comes Dancers with, the ball gets crossed, his hands there when he slid, there is some minutes of penalty, and this is what I find a little bit mad about offside, there's that. How can one be offside, handball? How can one be at handball, and one not handball? My issue was it with, with it was, and the first, that's not a natural position, the ball's coming towards, that's not a natural reflex. I think the ball, on my phone, he's dove in, and as you dive your arms, you can't dive like this, you dive like this, and his arm's coming down in motion, and if it doesn't hit him, because it's here, it is his chest or whatever, and I think, I think Bournemouth would be hard done by, I know they haven't, I think they're 14 for now, they haven't got a season, so I don't think they'd be too. Yeah, they're 14 with this. I think if they went there and got beat, I don't think they'd be too upset, but I think they got hard done by it, but in terms of west arm, I think it's a good, it's another three points. Yeah. A bit less pressure off more, they're starting to get the groove now. Top half of the table, I'm 14 points now, top half of the table, as I said, they're within, you know, they're within a win of Liverpool and being back amongst it, they're doing really well in Europe, they won again in the Europa League, they've already qualified. So their season now has got to that level where they've got over a bumpy start, not winning games and they're winning again. It's classic moist season. That's a typical moist season, is it? You start, you get off a bit of shade, Everton fans never put that much pressure on, like western fans do this season, because we expect it, we expect that. You get over a little bump and then our lockdown will be tap picking up wins. Classic points, good win for them, but just looking at the table, Arsenal top 28 points, Man City 26 points, played the same games, which is 11. The game and Anders against each other. Tottenham in third and this is where they'll be really disappointed. 23 points, if they've got a win, they'd be on the same points as City and two points behind Arsenal. They're on 23. Mad dad, Arsenal's goal difference 14, City's 25 and then Tottenham's is nine. Newcastle fourth and 21. Chelsea 21, they've played the game less than Newcastle and Manchester United in sixth on 20 and I'll just do the bottom three. Forrest bottom with nine, Wolves with nine and Leeds in the bottom three now with nine. So, yeah, there you go. Three games, still, the Whale Cup. Yeah, it's going to be very, very interesting and then we get the break.

It's been said that we've been revolutionaries and all this sort of thing. In a way that's true. We've gone back to a traditional view of the university. The traditional view of the university is a community of scholars, of faculty and students. The only reason that I support in this is because I like Cal very much. I'd like to see it better. This October, UC Berkeley commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Free Speech Movement, the movement that fought for students' freedom to express political and non-political thoughts without restriction. On October 1, 1964, I was arrested while sitting at a table for the Congress on Racial Equality, a civil rights organization that was then very active on campus. The deans came up to me and asked me to take down the table. When I refused, they called the police and they dragged me to a police car and put me in. By the time I got in the police car, it was surrounded and that was the beginning of the FSM. From advocating for the increase of educational funding to providing perspectives on political issues that directly affect all students, student activism drives social change starting from within the university and spreads its influence beyond the university. Activism encourages awareness and engagement, energy that fuels action and resolution. We were trying to take the issue and explain to a broader student body that the campus authorities were prohibiting our right to communicate with the rest student body and to mobilize for the civil rights activities. When they arrested me and put me in the police car, all I felt was they made a big mistake. I think what's important is that people sort of understand that a student movement is really important and that the student movement spreads into the rest of society. Students carry out the legacy of the movement by voicing opinions and generating solutions. ASUC Senator Haley Broder promotes students' ideas for environmental sustainability. What we are seeing on this campus is the university trying to undermine our ability to be active students. What we watch is a voice that is heard and a voice that is prioritized. Student activism results from young people taking responsibility for the future. As a result, student voice effectively portrays the priorities of the present and mobilizes action. During the FSM, we learned that dedicated commitment to a cause can work, can be successful if you stick to it and if you know what you're objecting. From the protests on Janet Napolitano's role as the president of the University of California to a campus-wide Occupy Wall Street movement, students are continuing to challenge the status quo. A lot of people were concerned and involved with the civil rights struggle in the South, but they also realized through the free speech movement that there was a civil rights struggle still going on right in their own backyard and that they had to speak out for their own rights and their rights of their neighbors and they didn't have to go hundreds of miles away to do that. The free speech movement inspired college students to openly discuss regional, national and international matters. A demonstration that started here in UC Berkeley developed into a movement that to this day encourages students to influence social and political change in our world. We won the right for free protests that really had not been anywhere near as well as established before.


Hello everyone, thank you for taking the time to watch this video. We'd like to talk to you today about this upcoming City of Fort Worth street reconstruction project. This presentation was originally meant to be given at an in-person community meeting with all affected residents and other citizens who utilize these streets. However, due to the city's response to the current COVID-19 outbreak, that meeting has been canceled and this presentation has been recorded in lieu of the actual meeting. This presentation is meant to provide you with some information about the scope of this project that is happening in your area and give you a little bit of a heads up about what to expect with the upcoming construction. Here is the agenda of what I hope to cover in my brief presentation. I'll be talking about the project as a whole, reviewing the scope of work, and providing you with information about the phasing and schedule of the construction. This project consists of three streets to be reconstructed. These include Mesa Verde Trail from Isle Royal Drive to Basswood Boulevard, Creekfall Drive from Basswood Boulevard to Misty Ridge Drive, and Rosita Street from Glen Eden Drive to Gene Hills Lane. As this slide indicates, we will be performing a full replacement of the concrete pavement and underlying subgrade, as well as some work on the in-street sanitary sewer manholes to meet TCEQ requirements. In addition, we will also be reconstructing new sidewalks and ADA wheelchair ramps in areas on each street where they are needed. In this slide, you can see a picture of the current state of Mesa Verde Trail on the left, showing the existing concrete pavement in very poor condition. On the right is an example of a new concrete street, including new sidewalks and driveways. The final product for Mesa Verde and the other streets associated with this project won't look exactly like this, but you can expect something similar with the final product. Each road will be fully excavated to remove the existing concrete pavement, concrete curbs and gutters, and existing subgrade to a depth of almost 18 inches below the current road surface. The road will then be rebuilt with reinforced concrete pavement on all streets, as well as new concrete curbs and gutters. New sidewalks and ADA wheelchair ramps are also being constructed in specific areas of all streets where they are needed. This slide shows our expected phasing and schedule for the construction whether dependent. Construction is expected to begin in July of this year and be completed in February of 2021. The construction phasing on each street will consist of excavating the existing street, preparing the subgrade and placing the new concrete pavement, completing sidewalks, ADA wheelchair ramps, and reconstructing driveways, and then performing the final cleanup. In order to efficiently utilize their various crews, the contractor will stagger the start on each street by one or two months so that when one crew has finished their task, they can move to the next street and begin. For example, the demolition and excavation crew will start on Rosita Street, then move to Creekfall Drive and finally to Mesa Verde Trail. The concrete paving crew will follow behind them and so on until the project is complete. A traffic control firm will provide the contractor with a specialized traffic control plan for use during the upcoming construction. This plan will provide for the safe and efficient routing of traffic in order to limit the impact on those who use these streets regularly. The contractor will provide adequate signage to indicate when lanes will be closed and where detours and alternative routes will be required. I would like to finish this presentation by presenting some frequently asked questions regarding this construction project and providing answers. Will I still have access to my driveway during construction? For the most part, yes, access to your driveway will only be restricted when the driveway is being reconstructed and when new pavement is being placed directly in front of your property. You will be given notice by the contractor and the city when these construction activities can be expected. Will I lose water to my property? No, you should not lose water service to your property as we are not performing any work on the existing water utilities. In the unlikely event that a shutoff will be necessary, you will be given sufficient notice prior to the shutoff. Will any roads be closed during construction? No, the road will never be completely closed to through traffic during this project. While access may be limited to certain areas of the street during working hours, residents will have access to their homes at most times.  You will be notified by the contractor in advance regarding any disruptions to your access. Will trees on my property be removed? Unfortunately, there are some trees very near to the existing street that will have to be removed in order to provide the best quality concrete, curb and gutter and sidewalk as possible. If you have a tree that is slated to be removed, you will be notified by the contractor prior to removal. How long will this project take? The total contract time is 210 calendar days. How wide will my new driveway be? The contractor will be matching existing driveway widths unless they are currently less than 11 feet wide. This concludes the presentation. Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and watch. It is unfortunate that we were not able to meet all of you in person due to public health concerns and discuss any comments or questions that you may have, but we would still like to hear from you. The phone number and email address for the city's project manager is provided here. Please feel free to contact him if you so choose. Finally, the contact information for the city's construction inspector is also listed. He will be your first point of contact for all questions and concerns you may have during construction. Thank you once again. We appreciate your patience with us as we move through the construction process and we look forward to hearing from you.


with reference to investment decency in order to ensure wealth maximization for the corporate owners. We know that the financial models and other investment theories in finance theory are characterized by rational human behavior in the presence of a world which is hypothetically known as efficient capital market. And in this scenario, the uncertainties are reduced to measurable probabilities. All these steps are meant to ensure the creation and sustaining of wealth maximization for the firm owners. So far as the shareholders' wealth or value addition is concerned, in fact, management still have no precise definition of what is meant by wealth maximization for the shareholders. Is it a dividend or is it future earnings or is it the combination of these two items that are incorporated in order to attain capital gains in the market? Now, there are fundamental problems that whether a firm's dividend decency rather than a reinvestment plan for the firm's growth has any differential impact on its share prices in the stock market. There also exist two other problems in this regard that the management perception on earning measurement may differ not only because of variation in the accounting methods but also due to the management's greed instead of working for the shareholders' welfare. The second question arises that the asymmetric information, rumor, speculation and crowd behavior may turn market into inefficiency and instability which may lead towards the crash in the market. Now, if without internal cash flow information available to the external investors, whether these investors are able to reformulate external accounting data to measure the consequences of managerial decency, now whether it is possible, this question arises. And the other question arises that if it is possible to manipulate the external accounting data to determine the consequences of the managerial decency, then capital market may have some control over the manager behavior that conflicts with the creation of wealth maximization. So these are the two fundamental questions. Economic value edit, perfect capital markets encourage wealth maximization in the form of cash inflows to the firm at much cheaper cost of creating them and which are expected as a result of optimum management, optimum investment finance decisions. We know that the firm's objective can be classified, categorized as a single line item which is a wealth maximization for the shareholders. Now this wealth maximization of shareholders can be viewed from the perspective of finance theory and from the perspective of the economic theory. Finance theory means that the wealth maximization can be termed as net present value maximization, means that the welfare or wealth of the shareholder can be maximized if the net present value of all of the projects undertaken by a firm is maximized. But economic theory translates this wealth maximization into value addition. So far as EVA or economic value edit is concerned, it is the access of distributable profits over the overall cost of capital of the firm. By distributable profit remains the deleveraged earnings. This means that to determine distributable profit, we have to add back interest expense to the after-tax profits. This means that EVA is equal to earning after-tax plus interest expense which is then known as distributable profit. From this distributable profit, we deduct the overall cost of capital. In other words, we distributable profit may be termed as no-pad, means net operating profit after-tax and this no-pad can also be termed as net operating income. To determine cash cost of capital, we multiply opportunity cost with the capital of the firm. If distributable profits are greater than the cost of capital, this means there is positive EVA and by positive EVA, we mean that wealth has been created for the shareholder which is termed as value creation. But on the other hand, if distributable profits of the firm are lesser than its cost of capital, then there is negative EVA and by negative EVA, we mean that the value or wealth of the shareholders has been deleted or destroyed. We have another measure that is market value added. In fact, market value added is an external measure that reflects the effect of EVA on the share prices of the firm in a stock market. To determine market value added, we need to deduct the capital of a firm from its market value of equity and market value of debt. This means that we need to determine market value of the overall firm and from this market value of the whole firm, we deduct capital of the firm, the resulting figure is known as market value added. Market value added has a significant relation with the economic value added. And if EVA is positive, then this means that market value added will be positive and this will lead towards the wealth creation for the shareholders. On the other hand, if EVA is negative, then we may have negative MVA. This means that the value or wealth of the shareholders may have been destroyed or deleted. While determining wealth maximization or value addition for the shareholders, we have to account for two other things that profit and cash flows. For profit and cash flows, we have NPV. We know that NPV is a cash flow driven matrix. We add back certain non-cash items to the accounting income and we arrive at NPV of the project or of an investment proposal. But to determine EVA or economic value added, we need to adjust certain accounting based adjustments to the accounting earnings along with the interest expense. So we can say that the relationship between income and cash flow can be developed if we adjust our income with some accounting adjustments, then we come to the figure of cash flows. EVA is a periodic concept. This periodic concept can be determined in the form of increase and decrease in the economic profits of the firm. But so far as the market value added is concerned, it is a residual phenomenon. This means that it is the cumulative of past EVAs that has been accumulated in the form of wealth. So it is a residual phenomenon. To check the relationship between EVA, NPV and market value added, we have a little example here. We have V for value at present, which is 200 million. We have NOPAD for the current period, which is 20 million. We have capital right now, which is 100 million. We have cost of capital, which is 10 percent. We have opening market value added or opening MVA, which is 90 million. Now to determine EVA, we know that we have to deduct overall cost of capital from the NOPAD. Now we have NOPAD of 20 million. And to determine cost of capital, we multiply 10 percent to the capital, which is 100 percent. The resulting figure is 10. And we deduct this 10 as interest expense or the cost of capital from 20, which is NOPAD. We have an EVA of 10 million. To determine market value added, we need to deduct capital from the current market value of the firm. And we have current value of 200 million pound and current capital of 100 million. The difference, we have 100 million. So we have till now EVA of 10 million and MVA of 100 million. We can also describe change in market value added as the difference between current period market value added and the previous periods market value added. If we see that we have it present, market value of 100 million, which is market value added at the right now time zero. And earlier as an opening balance, we have market value added of 90 million dollar. When we see the difference, the difference comes to 10 million dollars. Now comparing the two market value added, we can see that the change in market value added is basically due to the current periods EVA. So we can prove that current period EVA is the residual market value added which resides and accumulates over a period of time and that period is the current period.
