We have seen a lot of the games that we watched in the Premier League, which came at the end of 2-2, but now Manchester City again versus Liverpool. How do you see that much going? Interesting. This is what they have played twice in the Premier League. Both cases have ended 2-2. First leg goes 2-2, second leg goes 2-2. That gives you a glimpse of what you are going to expect. You are going to expect goals. You are going to expect fireworks today. Because again, this is a realistic chance of winning a trophy because if they make it to the final, then chances are one of these two teams will lift it. So we are going to see goals today. And I believe we want to see a repeat of what we saw last weekend. Last Sunday. Fireworks coming in. Of course we expect being an FA game and also having played in midweek. On Sunday they played in midweek. We are expecting some changes to be made in both teams. But I am sure if you look at the setup of the two teams, we will see more changes coming into the Man City game because of the nature of the coach. He is going to move around players. I am not expecting very many changes in the Liverpool team because Klopp has a few people he trusts. He may bring in 2-3 attackers. 2-3 changes. But we don't see an overhaul. But all in all we have two managers who play attacking football in different ways. Because Pep plays attacking football where he passes your way into the attack. When it comes to Liverpool they play heavy metal football. Long passes into the space and they hit you very fast and they play high speed football. When it comes to now it is the last stages of this competition because you've got a chance to win double now. You've got a chance to win a treble now. You've got a chance to win a quadrable now. Mentally how this guy is prepared because you look at Manchester City they went to war against Atletico Madrid for them to come on top. They are heading again to another non-Mandy against Liverpool. Mentally how these players going to be prepared for such a clash. It's just another day in paradise for them. They are used to it. That's a typical footballer season. Lots and lots of football. Lots and lots of trophies to fight for. And lots and lots of reason to try and up your stakes especially as a World Cup which is due this year draws ever so closer. So ultimately I think psychologically they are going to be in a good place. The only thing that could catch up with them a bit if not a lot is the fatigue because they've had lots and lots of football and lots and lots of travelling that comes with it. And now there is more travelling. They are moving from the north east of England going to play at London's Wembley Stadium. That's more travelling, more time away from your loved ones. But other than that as Eric said expect a lot of entertainment just like we were entertained last weekend. This game is going to be proper just like last weekend's game was proper. You wouldn't have walked away from watching that much feeling disappointed because of lack of entertainment. Maybe the result would have disappointed you if you were partisan but in terms of entertainment it's off the edge type of soccer and that's really what you want. And this is FA Cup men. It's very very prestigious. A lot of people think the FA Cup has lost its prestige. Men they are wrong. It's like the World Cup of England domestically if you put aside the English Premier League. So I think stakes are going to be very very high. At some point there might be tension nearing, bordering on fracas amongst the players because they all want to do it and they are also very tired fatigued by lots and lots of football. This is a must watch. You are talking about the changes that you might be expecting this afternoon coming on to this game. I understand that Kyle Walker might be injured from the game against Athletico Madrid, Cancelo also and there is also Fatigue, the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and all that. What kind of the major changes we are using from the Manchester City point of view? I think the Manchester City maybe Kyle Walker's absence will have to bring in somebody else. He has a tendency also not to start with the recognized striker. I think he will still go do that today.  But on this one I think my gut is that Liverpool will carry the day. I have a match and hit them simply because one Manchester City was kicked and bruised in midweek but Athletico did a lot of damage to them. Look at what they need to feel for them. They brought in fear to them and today they may not be on top of their game. Liverpool has a compact way of playing. Is it another tactic that Klopp can employ to be on the faces of Manchester City?  Liverpool plays a little bit more physical as compared if you look at these two teams. Liverpool is going to come in the heavy metal, they are going to bang them, they are going to come and Liverpool will come off the blocks flying. Last Sunday they gave Manchester City a chance to score first. Today I don't think Klopp is going to repeat that mistake. He is going to instruct his players to just come and take the game to Man City. When you take the game to Man City at least the game becomes more interesting because they have to respond in kind also. And they are playing on neutral ground. Wembley. Last time Liverpool were playing away at City and it sort of put them in a tense position. If that game was in unfilled, I think Liverpool may just have walked away with the game. Although City dominated it but they were dominating because they are at home, that's advantage. This one is neutral. Wembley is 50-50. I think Liverpool might just have the last laugh. Not at least with the margin of one goal. But I think Liverpool will have the last laugh. And in the other game I think let me just be very politically incorrect. I think Crystal Palace will win. That is the game that you are going to talk about. A coach who has come in to Crystal Palace, actually not even Crystal Palace to the Premier League is doing his job without people noticing. But the same is actually working wonders and that is Patrick Vera with Crystal Palace. And he is going against it. Sofa, how do you rate Patrick Vera and Crystal Palace just the whole season sofa? I think he is successful because fox don't lie my brother. If you look at right now the points they have garnered is equal to the points they garnered last season. And they still have eight games to spare. So that shows you what a brilliant job this guy has done. Because if they have equal the points they have garnered the whole of last season. And they still have eight points to spare. Eight points can easily result into 24 points maximum. They are expecting ten more points on the lower side from the eight points. Because the eight games, let's assume they win too. They are expecting at least ten points. So they will have really improved. So I am sure when we are rating him he has done a brilliant job. And he is actually at the top half of the table. He is at the top half of the table. You know when he beat Arsenal, a friend of mine commented something that he said 12, I think 11 or 10 black, strong black men harassing a few mzungus on the field. When he was talking about the clikes of Zaha v. Smithro. He galvanized his team around him. And you see at a coach and we were talking about Tlatelitiko off the record. A coach, he is playing periods days will reflect his coaching style. Vera is playing days, he was a combative midfielder. And that is what he has done into that team. What they lack in flair they substitute with energy. They substitute with endurance and they substitute with aggressiveness. If you look at the game against Arsenal they had the energy, they had the endurance and they were aggressive. And you was done and buried. He scored a brilliant calling. So he is going to go against Chelsea and he is going to coach Chelsea. And this one coach actually was managed to pick a point from Manchester City. Actually two points from Manchester City. Four against Arsenal. And you know Jimmy Oaki, my nephew also comes here. He sent me a WhatsApp message. Ali says, who do you think will be the first coach to be sucked this year? I said, ah Patrick Vera. So I thought it was Patrick Vera. I thought Vera wouldn't like it. But man the guy is smooth. He knows what he is up to. I watched him on Instagram from his first training session, his second training session. I still didn't rate him. But let me tell you, my heart is off Patrick Vera. If you look at most of the coaches in football, those who really excel, most of them are normally midfielders. Why do I say midfielders or somebody who plays in the midfield role? Either as an attacking midfielder or a defensive midfielder. Most of the time in any team, look at Teta, look at Vera, look at Shavi, look at Godiola, look at Lampard. Those are the guys who in any team who enforce the tactics of the coach on the field. The coach passes instructions through them. These are the guys who pull the strings in the field. The midfielder will do that because he has to coordinate between the defense and the attack. So they have a good footballing mind. But there's a 20% in me that's saying next season is Patrick Vera's real litmus test. That's when he'll really prove himself. I'm a bit skeptical. Just 20%. What we can be asking also is that Chelsea having lost to Real Madrid, everybody talks about when you lose a game you need to make a comeback. You need a response. But do you see a response in their fake up? It will be a tough game, what I can say it will be a tough game. But again we cannot underestimate Tushel because I have followed him. He's not the kind of manager who makes a mistake twice. We look at the game, the first leg against Real Madrid. He started the game sluggishly. He considered three. When he came now the second leg he didn't start sluggishly. He was up three nil. So you see he's a coach who learns and he has players who are also willing to fight for him. So here we are going to see a combative semifinal. We are going to see a tough game and it can go either way. And it's a derby. It's also a derby. It's a derby. But I'll put my money on Chelsea in this one. Well, Eric Aganya and Taira Soyaki here on the touchline. I'm Robert Osoro. It is the touchline at Mirumbi Osoro, at Titiwayaki and at Eric Aganya. It's where you can find us on Twitter and Facebook and talk to us on matters that are happening when it comes to sports. A big weekend also this afternoon. Before we go to the fixtures and talk everything that is happening in the fixtures. Nemanja Matich has actually said this is my last season at Manchester United. I need to pave the way for the young guys. Brilliant idea. Brilliant idea because as much as I have massive respect for the guy, he's a left footed guy who plays in the centre of the park. Let us not forget what he did for Chelsea. That season under Mourinho that they won the Premier League. He was very instrumental. Mourinho's come back season. He was also done a lot for Manchester United, but unfortunately age has come in. There's nothing you can do. He was one of the fastest players and when age comes in, it slows you down. Age has slowed him down. He's decided to leave, to exit when he's still being respected. Sometimes when you overstay, you lose that respect because the young kids will run circles around you. He's experienced that. He's been a good soldier for Manchester United. He's been a good soldier for Chelsea. He's been a good addition in the Premier League. He's given us good memories. I remember his goal against Chris Torpales, against Manchester United when we won 3-2. Brilliant goal and when everybody was shouting at him, don't shoot, don't shoot. He took the shot and won the game. Well, the best to him. How many good memories for you for Nemanja Matich? Yes, he's been like the Luka Modrich of the English Premier League at some point or the other. He's played very, very well, brilliant football, brilliant thinker, brilliant to react to situations and he's also had that third eye that only genius footballers have. He's able to spot a non-existent space and squeeze the ball right there like passing a camel through a needle hole and he's done it without flinching. So, I have maximum respect for him, but times have brought in new players and Matich has been MIA, he's been missing in action. He's only brought in when United feel that they are a bit desperate and he can't rekindle that magic of yours. So, maybe he might be able to go to a not-so-demanding space where he can play his football in its final lap and I wouldn't rule that out because he's got something extra that he can pass on to younger guys but not at Manchester United. I'm honoured to have analysed Sok at a time when he was playing and I wish him the very best of luck. When the manager Matich is actually going to live in Manchester United at the end of the season. But now also, one coach who was also sacked yesterday has got to be Shondike, the Burnley manager. For many fans who follow Burnley and also the Premier League seems to be a sad day for us as Burnley decided to do away with Shondike. What were they thinking? What were they thinking? Because with the kind of budget that they have and what Shondike has been able to offer them who else will offer better? That is my biggest question. Especially at this time of the season they could have waited for him to see on the season because remember he had come in with a come back and he had picked a few points in the last few games. They could have allowed him to fin the season but he could have still maintained he could have avoided delegation with them but now I am not quite sure. Well for Shondike he was actually one of the longest running Premier League manager. And actually today he was actually one of the longest running Premier League. He was appointed I think back in 2012. October 2012. Yeah, he has done eight years at Burnley and they had actually promoted them from the championship twice. I think into also the European places in one of the seasons this was not a good season for him only winning four matches so far but he will not now be with Burnley and we'll see how Burnley will be fearing on considering that in late kickoff today they will be playing against the Hamas. So expect three points for Western for free. We are putting money somewhere. Eight seasons, that's a long time. Yeah, a long time now. But now maybe the players can play for him now. That's when the players come in to fight for you. Yes. And there's football politics and fortunately it happens in England. You saw it with Sheffield United but they had that kind of thing whereby they don't invest so much in the team and they expect the coach to do wonders and he has his requests to them this are not honored then they suck him. It's most unfortunate. With football actually it's a business and with this business there has to be an understanding between the playing unit and the office and the marketing. The business was of the company and the playing unit of the company. If these are disconnects especially if you look at a team like Manchester United when Ferguson left the playing unit and the marketing bit or the administrative bit is a big disconnect because the playing unit means the manager and the players. And the manager is the boss because when the manager is in control then the team will perform well. Yes. But when the manager is not in control then the team is not likely to perform well because they will end up buying players that the manager doesn't need they will buy players for commercial business and you see that one becomes a problem and that is what has happened with Manchester United and as we were saying off camera if you read Finder Tenhag insisted that he has to be because when you have people who have played football people who know how to market football in the administrative office look at the working relationship of Van Dasa and Tenhag Van Dasa has been there has been a player he knows the challenges that the players go through so when he is there as the CEO or the football director and then you have now a coach who understands football will go places but if that understanding is not there then we have It's actually good that you have brought Tenhag into this conversation because now he has agreed to be the next Manchester United manager in principle but they have not signed the contract yet but the question will be is there good fit for Manchester United at the moment? He is definitely not the worst we could have got given the time they had to sort this out remember there was a point when Antonio Conte was out of management and look what he has done at Tottenham he perhaps would have been a better purchase but then again when you look at the way Ajax of Amsterdam play that brilliant attacking football beautiful football what they call in England the Manchester United way you think okay this guy is worth the bet but then again we've seen more brilliant managers than him coming Louis van Haal and so on and so forth it's all about will he be given the time and space to do as he thinks and the resources because at the end of the day if you don't give the manager that room to manuva and do as he deems best then you're going to have the kind of clash we've seen between Burnley and Shondash however in terms of philosophy and tactics and everything I think he's a good fit better than Mourinho was because Mourinho a fantastic coach but his kind of soccer did not blend with the kind of Manchester United way of playing football Mourinho wants to park the bus Manchester United other side that's built on attack on attack ever since back in the day if Tenhag finally manages to come to Manchester United and is going to kick off the season as the coach let's say it goes also for pre-season and everything as a Manchester United fan and die hard what do you expect from this coach one I expect him to rebuild the team because that is what the team needs we need a coach as I said he is not the best that they could have gotten but he's the best that is out there because if you look at Konte there are so many factors to consider longevity Konte is a coach will come and win a season and decide he's not going to do it again he's leaving he did that at Chelsea he did that at Inter Milan he left Inter Milan when nobody expected so Manchester United I think they have learned from their mistakes they want to bring in a coach for the sake of longevity definitely he's going to get the resources because Manchester United even the previous coaches have gotten the resources as compared to the others if you look at the spending spray the only issue is now him being able to get rid of the many dead woods that are there because there are so many I don't understand how the likes of Phil Jones two years you played six games and you're still in the team we need a coach who has to say okay good you did your best but it's now time to move on and what I have read about him is that kind of a coach either you are with me or you are not with me either you shape up or shape out and that's what he did and you look at all the successful coaches they are that strong you have to put your foot down do you see this scenario also coming in where I was just perusing through the internet and one of the things that came up was that Manchester United is prepared to offer Paul Pogba 500,000 pounds per week and as a coach now you need to come to a realisation that if I don't take care of this cup of the players they are going to overrun me as a coach to me I think I was really really disappointed with the news if they are true with those figures yes with those figures because one Paul Pogba has no commitment to Manchester United thank you he has no consistency in his performance talent aside we've had talented players but without consistency without hard work then you are a liability to the team and you've seen some games where he's really a liability to the team when he gets a red card when he was not supposed to get a red card when he doesn't track back so I think as Manchester United we don't need such kind of players we need players who love the club players who are willing to play for the manager not players who want to dance on TikTok who want to be on Instagram and also that thing of splashing money on players that era has passed let him go yeah that era has passed they splashed so much on Maguire look at Maguire what has he given them back in return there was a time they even splashed so much return on investment is not worth this and you see Paul Pogba is also in his late 20s if you are investing in a 21 if they were investing in Sancho there's hope that this kid as time goes by by the time he hits 25 he will be at his peak Paul Pogba is now getting past his peak because if you are in your late 20s and you are a midfielder and you are slow in nature you may not play for long and you see everybody and everybody argue about Paul Pogba keeps on telling me look at his performance in France now my issue is look at the people he plays with in the French midfield we cannot just attribute it to Paul Pogba he has Ngolo Kante along his side he had blismatwidi for a long time those are donkey we will do the donkey work for him he has that I don't refuse he has that brilliant touch the likes of Kuhunde even Chaka for France he has that brilliant touch but lookamodrich has a brilliant touch and lookamodrich will still fly into tacos at the 120th minute will Paul Pogba do that that's when he will never be that great big question for Manchester United we are going to be asking them sorry I said Chaka for France sorry I confused my head is gone over all over the place sorry Chaka is Swiss just ignore me we'll still talk about many things here on the touchline Manchester United is a big conversation they like giving out points and they gave out points to Everton they have been giving out points to Burnley and all that and they might end up giving points again this evening to Norway we've had stupid draws here it gets for me when you talk about Manchester United it gets very emotional because it's one club I love we have stupid draws that Manchester United is drawing against teams that they should not have drawn and I watched actually that time I was watching I'm not just saying if you're watching we caught the game last season last time with him against Leicester against Everton and one thing we were coming to a conclusion that this just like a Kenya Premier League game because both teams could not string together 5 passes that's a joke you don't expect that from Manchester United in fact Manchester United the last 2 games have been worse than a Kenya Premier League team because at least the Kenya Premier League team you can blame FC is knocking balls by the FCs playing brilliant football I was in Tika the other day and how they are playing so my new have been as down as down can be to be honest and this afternoon against Norwich you give them a chance to gana the 3 points this is their best chance to ever come back and gana 3 points because really it's not too much of an uphill task when they are playing against Norwich but then again Norwich have nothing to lose so they are coming to throw wind to Kaushal or is it throw Kaushal to the wind sorry they are coming to throw whatever it is Norwich are coming out with no care in the world however if United were ever to get some 3 easy points no disrespect to Norwich if they can't I won't be surprised they don't win this one I think they won't even make it to the Europa because now the Champions League sport is out of question because you have Liverpool and Man City number 1 and 2 is gone Chelsea number 3 may also go and then we talk about Tottenham Tottenham is making Tottenham is making is trying to save the number 4 sport so if Tottenham saves number 4 and number 5 you have Arsenal number 6 you have now you are fighting with Western and Wolves is just there if they lose today Wolves and Arsenal and Western will occupy 6 and 7 well that's a much that will be coming for Manchester United this afternoon but also talking about Tottenham will be going ahead against Brighton Brighton have also been playing good football this time around but since Antonio Conte came in started off with 2-3 matches not going his way but of late Tottenham is scoring goals Harry Kane and Sam they are still scoring good goals I think Conte has brought in brought them to the form they were in when they were playing for Mourinho remember when and Kane were playing for Mourinho they were banging goals at will because Mourinho assisted Kane to have something to track back and come into the number 10 position and create for so and that confuses many teams and that's what Conte has now if you look at the last game 2 assists from Kane so you see Kane now is turning out to be there provider when everybody is expecting him to stick forward to be provided for and that confuses most of the defenders because most of the defenders do man-to-man marking when he was told to stay with Kane now when he draws you back towards the midfield you create a hole this is Tottenham's time to run away with it because Liverpool sorry Arsenal slipped and Manchester United slipped West Ham sort of slipped so really this is Tottenham's time not to bottle it but to run away with it if they do so then they start to seal their fourth place finish this particular league this particular season for that matter but if they slip because there are times in the season when they've lacked consistency in matters winning then they'll give these other teams that are chasing them a lifeline and that won't be good for them so really it's Tottenham's big test this particular weekend well Tottenham will be starting off the early kickoff there at 3.30 actually again as the Brighton have and then we talked about Manchester United and Norwich in the gold rush there Manchester United versus Norwich then Southampton at the St. Mary's versus Asnowatford will be playing home to Brentford and then Newcastle as in James Park will be playing Leicester sitting and then we'll be finishing of the day with Western versus Burnley the game between Southampton and Asnowatford actually looks like a big test for Asnowatford because Asnowatford doesn't look like Southampton has been a very good team since Asnowatford took over and Southampton again they have to come back from the 6th the thrashing they got against Chelsea last weekend they were thrashed so they have to answer they have to give an answer to that so today it's gonna be they will come up really hard against Asnowatford so it's an interesting and tough game to watch well and then for you Asnowatford Southampton how do you plan? I give Asnowatford benefit of the doubt I think they stand the chance of just walking away with it or at least not losing because they can't do worse than they've been doing of late this is it for them if they want to finish top top four this is it for them but then again it's not going to come easy and I think it will come late in the game for them well one team that has also so impressed since they appointed their new coach has got to be new castle Eddie How and they will be playing against Leicester City a big game for Eddie How at home for new castle to play Leicester a big game and as you've said since Eddie How came in he's really done a brilliant job apart from the 5-1 I think he was hit by Tottenham he's done a brilliant job throughout he's in the process of rebuilding at least he's given new castle hope that they're not going for delegation we'll stay up but even before we talk about any other game my credit, my big credit goes to Christian Ericsson at Brentford it's just brilliant for football even after that near death experience his come back he's stronger and I've watched him for the last three games he's come back to his best he's pulling the strings Brentford haven't lost an English Premier League game with him as part of the squad outfield and now Tottenham even want to buy him again must have been must have been a lot of therapy and heart from the innermost heart of yourself that he has to put the desire he has and the love of the game to come back and play because I think there are some players who have had this heart problem even the Italians refuse to play cannot play in their league it's the realisation that he's got a new lease of life he's leaving a second chance even when that's realisation when somebody realises they have a new lease somebody wants to be cautious it's like Kanunwanku coming back from the heart operation and near death experience Ronaldo the Brazilian number nine coming back from his knee surgery and with stitches right from the shin all the way almost to the thigh it's that thing of I can't take this for granted I'm so blessed I'm going to give this my all you know it is scary it is scary for some people like us for me personally it's scary because we saw what happened I think it was for Bruce Muamba for Bruce Muamba Mark Vivian and then there are coaches I think Sam Aladise and Saalex Fagason I've got this heart and when they celebrate a goal you're like ooh they came against they came against Barcelona because they wanted Fagason's arm and this was shaking and they can't do it and they're like it's also it's not to diminish his previous career before the incident at the last euros Ericksen has been a brilliant player he's always given everything but this time around it's like there's something that's really calling him to the next level and we are saying it takes a lot of courage to come back and say I want to play again others will go into retirement and move slowly into coaching but this guy came back and say I want to play again and I want to play the highest level let's finish off with West Ham and Burnley 3 points for West Ham I conquer for you Tiras it's theirs for the taking and let me pass on my congratulations to Ayub Tinde Masika remember you won the Revo Thai League one last Sunday and with Buriram United so now they are the champions of Thailand they may have booked themselves a place in the Asian Cup for next season massive congratulations to him I didn't want that to be my highlight of the week because I didn't want to sound a bit selfish or biased but overall massive congratulations to him another come back talking of comebacks he's a guy who was clubless just the other day but he came in strong he remained physically and mentally fit and guess what today he was back in the gym this morning focusing and everything just as he's been most of the week imagine you win the league you should be out there partying and drinking but you're out there hitting the gym hard so massive congratulations to him thank you for flying our flag high give us your parting shot my parting shot is to Wan Jao he won the featherweight in the boxing championship that has been going on in DRC Congo he's a boy who has come from so far he joined the military by mistake and credit goes to his coach and coach Deuri all the way Deuri has done a brilliant job with his kids and he's still mentoring other kids and they are the junior championship he took kids there when we have people doing extraordinary things in the estates these are kids who are turned from the streets they come in here, rehabilitate them and they also won with there's another kid called Monena he's in grade 6 the youth championship that has been going on and there's another girl called Elizabeth they have done well those are my heroes Coach Deuri all the way from Ghidorai keep doing what you're doing thanks a lot Eric also for coming thanks a lot to you guys I'm Robert Osoro for everyone who has made this broadcast a success we say asante sana good afternoon enjoy the rest of your viewing just make sure western has 3 points for you thank you


Hey, good morning everyone. I'm welcome to the Open daylight open stack state of the world Session thanks everyone for coming First thing here is my colleague Kyle Who as you may know is was a lot recently elected neutron PTL is not going to be here mostly because he vastly underestimated the amount of work being the neutron PTL would be and he's off doing other things, so Cat Kyle a break on that so What I'm going to do is just dive into this. Oh, let me let me just say who I am. I'm Dave Meyer. I Work at brocade I'm currently chair of the open daylight TSC technical steering committee and This talk is kind of about What we've learned what we did over the last year in open daylight What kind of things we learned and what the future what we're going to do going forward so as a As a kind of a way that to run this is if you have a question or anything just you know Anytime let's we can do it in line and just get up and stop me So with that, let's see So what is it? I mean there's how many people have heard of open daylight. Oh Wow, okay. Good good marketing. Where's the Lenox foundation? Excellent. I Had some personal learnings actually open daylight You know I'd written a lot of code and put it on github and stuff like that But I've never really been in one of these really large-scale Open-source projects, so I learned a few things and I'll kind of tell you what those were about and then You know a little bit about integration with Neutron few metrics about hydrogen And something about what's next which is helium so we don't have We don't have the alphabetical order releases like Open stock has we have something that is like following the periodic table, so it's going to go high It's gonna go hydrogen helium lithium, you know So check out the periodic table. You can find the names of the next releases And what's in the queue? so that What is it? So open daylight you guys know what it is apparently basically it's a it's an SDN We're trying to build an SDN ecosystem Platform Robust code extensible open source all of those good things Get the industry to accept it as a as a sort of standardized platform that people can not only use as open source Components but to build into their products So an example of where that was really worked well as in in an open v-switch right a lot of products are Based on open v-switch and now open open stack as well And then we want to you know We wanted to build a community because as I'll talk about this a little bit later But you know one of the things I've learned over the years that you know without community you really have you know a very diminished kind of project And I'll show you where we think that the community members can you know add or subtract value So as I said, it's a SDN platform how many people know what SDN is supposed to be I mean, you know The actual actual definition of SDN seems kind of elusive, you know, I mean you can it's you get as many definitions as people you ask But we're trying to kind of capture all of that So it includes northbound abstractions that people can consume rest and others and also southbound Multi-southbound so that's a little bit different than say some of the popular SDN controllers that are out there right now Like floodlight like floodlight is it open flow SDN controller We had in mind when we designed open daylight that there would be multiple southbound. So there's open flow.  So and it's designed for that So and then above that above that all of that infrastructure We have applications that people have written against all of that So and as I said whatever else we need to make it work Which turned out to be a lot more than we thought but you know There it goes and so the architecture or project framework is sort of like this The idea is that the there's a controller, which is really the core of the project You can think of it sort of like the kernel right so you have to have a robust rock solid kernel Or controller if you like that allows That allows that's extensible and allows people to build applications above and allows people to plug in new functionality below so as you can see in this picture and this is kind of the canonical open daylight picture The idea here is that there are applications above they talk through standard API's that are the open daylight API's and those are like everyone out Like everything else those are evolving as we're talking, but Rask Raskamp things like that and then the controller itself has Network services inside it has like topology management and things like that that you that everybody needs if they're doing networking And platform services like Plug-in managers and things like that and then southbound then there's a service abstraction layer called a cell There's actually two of them one is the hard-coded cell and then there's something called the MD cell or model driven cell The model driven cell the idea here is it's really kind of a nice idea The idea here is that you have yang models that describe the southbound and then you generate code that links the rest API's To the southbound plug-in using a code generation based on yang so it's fully modular that way and pretty nice But it's also complicated. So, you know, and you know, that's shaking out right now So and then the southbound plug-ins are going to be things like open flow I2rs and the fullness of time and things like that and because unlike unlike open stack open daylight is under the eclipse license and The reason one of the reasons for that is because we wanted to make it easy for people to bundle vendor specific plugins notably southbound plugins And and have them be able to bundle these into their products easily So an example of that would be I don't know if Cisco is going to do this but it'd be like one PK southbound plug-in would be a natural thing to kind of think about there or something like that and then there are data plane elements that that we have been working against both physical and Virtual so OBS. One of our projects is OBS DB and there's also a lot of physical Switching infrastructure underneath it. So that's kind of what it's about Now who's who's who's in the game Well, like all of these like many of these open source projects There's platinum gold and silver membership and this list. I don't think it's complete I mean because of the flux and the number of people who are joining I think it's close But not exact. So you can see who the platinum members are most many of them were founding members of the of the project and then we have a couple of gold members and Silver membership is growing pretty quickly There's a diversity of vendors and others involved in the project. So what we did was You know, we worked for about a year and then recently I'll show you this but We created a simultaneous release and the idea behind the simultaneous releases that all of the projects that wanted to be bundled together had had a project timetable in which they had to get in and they were All put together in a couple of different release vehicles and we call that hydrogen And it was supposed to be released on the 28th of January The additions or you can think of these as like release vehicles Were base virtualization and service providers So the idea was and this didn't this didn't actually work exactly the way we wanted it to but the idea was there'd be a base edition I'll show you a picture of this But there'd be a base edition which had the basic functionality in it and then since we had Projects that were around virtualization and data basically data center virtualization We bundled those up together and made a virtual Virtualization edition and then likewise for service provider and I'll show you what those look like Virtualization is where we did the open-stack integration And by the way, Kyle did a lot of that work and it's unfortunate. He couldn't make it But he you know, he did a lot of work on Neutron integration before He became a politician or whatever it is.  I guess is what you do By the way, that's sort of what it's like to be a chair of the TSC to you just run around and talk to people your Your your basic utility goes down or something like that so a So we had this nice simultaneous release plan and you know the typical things milestones and release Release candidates and all of that stuff and we were supposed to have the formal release on You know 12 9 that was our target last year Right and and we had all this and we're just going towards it and you know when we got there we found out that uh It didn't quite happen the way we wanted to we did a little bit of learning By the way, this is all you can find all this stuff on wiki.opendaylock.org. It's all up there So let's see We didn't make it we didn't make the actual date, but what we did deliver were 15 projects in the simultaneous release It was kind of this is kind of a and this is still a live issue inside open daylight and inside open stack Open stack seems to have solved this a little bit But the problem that you face when you have When you have a lot of projects that want to get in is that you have it's basically the same thing that you have in any Software development organization. It's sort of like you got a trade-off features for stability And we I don't think we've really hit that the sweet spot there yet We were working on that quite a bit open stack seems to have that kind of At least well-defined with sort of the idea of core and ecosystem so we had the simultaneous release it was supposed to be on December 9th, which apparently is the same as February 3rd But that's when we finally got it done and finally had artifacts that we put up and so that was cool And everybody was pretty much really happy about that and it was done right before the opens daylight summit the first one We had and it was really there's a lot of energy around it. It was really quite exciting It's sort of like here a lot of energy around everything so but in the process we learned a lot of stuff and and not enough to make it go smoothly yet, but we learned a lot so the first thing is We had a kind of an impressive list of projects in there and some people might say well That's too many because you didn't trade off properly against stability against you know You know features versus stability again same thing But the projects were the controller of course, that's like the kernel as I said VTN is a virtual tenant networking That was a project Came from NEC open dove came from IBM Affinity management service that came from Plexi List mapping that came from context stream that was kind of interesting They were not actually a member and there was a big a lot of confusion Early on with open daylight whether or not you could contribute code or be part of it if you weren't a member and of course It's an open source project. So you can Memberships about funding it Governance and all of that stuff but to be part of it to be a developer even to get on the TSC and for that Matter to get on the board. You don't have to be a member So that was list mapping how many people know what list is You know locator ID separation protocol It's something that Dino and I did when we were at Cisco, but the context stream guys picked it up for a sort of an NFV style service chaining application Yang tools was part of the Yang Infrastructure that we use remember I said that the MV cell was the model driven cell had used yang very heavily to generate code and Both northbound and southbound we split that off as its own project all the yang parts of that Which were substantial it uses a lot of modeling Defense for all that's a that's a security Application BGP LS and PSAP that's that's kind of a service provider traffic engineering thing Open flow and open flow plug-ins. Of course our open flow OS OBS DB was is something that's being done by the right had folks. Although when it started interestingly enough It was some folks at Cisco Madoo and Brent Salisbury who was at the time at you Kentucky and now is it Red Hat SNMP for SDN is kind of an interesting thing there were some folks in At Itry, which is a kind of a research Institute in Korea where they had switching infrastructure But for some reason they couldn't develop on the on the switch platform itself So they had SNMP. They wanted to see if they could use this control infrastructure to do flow programming on Using us SNMP and that's what this does Deluxe is a UI and System testing and integration we made a sound product project because that's just a gigantic thing So that's kind of the projects that were in there. That's kind of a lot a lot of different things that were in in there Now, how did we how did we wrap it all up? How did we build these release vehicles? So this is the another one of these canonical pictures that we that we always all use so These are all the components kind of wrapped up into everything right and I'll show you how they how they how they Break up into the different releases, but this is kind of the picture of everything together So there's so you can see there's the controller and it's different components And then in the blue layer underneath it those are sort of all the southbound plugins and then above Above the API recite API that they're showing there are all the things that our application So let's see how they how they fit together So this was the base edition. We kind of figured that you know the basic thing that you needed was net com because you got a you're gonna you need some way to configure the devices and then open flow because Most of the controllers out there were open flow only and we wanted to have that capability So the idea is you had the base edition then you'd add stuff to that to make virtualization and service provider So that was the idea. So what did service provider add? Well, it added inside the controller. Oh by the way, this it's The controllers written in Java and it uses OGS I OS GI Extensively right so where you see the affinity service and the lip lists service kind of outlined in yellow inside the controller that's where they added OS GI bundles to give the controller additional functionality to Support their application So it'd be like you had a KLM or something like that except for its OS GI in this case So we added the Lisp affinity service with I'm sorry the affinity service and the list service Which both of which added functionality to the controller again through this through OS GI bundles and then on the southbound we had SNMP BGP LS PSAP and less and Then above that we had the DOS DDoS protection thing that came from Defense for all By the way, stop me if anybody has a question It's important So the so the virtualization edition added OBS DB As a southbound how many people know what OS OBS DB is Okay way to configure and talk to OBS And then it we also put the affinity service open stack So this is where open-stack integration came in make makes kind of sense And VTN manager and dove manager so VTN and dove were Different ways of doing data center virtual multi-tenant virtualization one coming from any C1 coming from IBM Now, I'll just say right up front. These things didn't play nicely together They all VTN and dove wanted to wanted to talk directly to the switching infrastructure And there is not an abstraction in here that sits between those affinity could have been that but they but the plexi folks Just didn't get to it and you know We taught we've been talking to them about that affinity the affinity metadata services kind of an interesting Actually an abstraction layer so the way it looks it's drawn here is actually the way it's bundled But actually VTN and dove could run over Affinity but we just didn't get there and then at the application layer We had this VTN coordinator which took advantage of the VTN manager that again was an OS GI bundle that got loaded up into the controller We had the DDoS Protection stuff and then we had open-stack Neutron, which was the interesting part for this So how did that work how did open-stack Neutron work? So Open daylight it's you know the reality is it's a pastor right because what we wanted to do is allow open-stack to talk directly to the open daylight controller and then Exposed those API so basically what it does is it it exposes a single common Open-stack service northbound so on the top of the controller right by the way We have this terminology northbound and southbound so you can think of the controller in the middle northbound is on top You know this is where applications use rest API's to talk to the controller in southbound We have what are basically protocol plugins the problem with the terminology is north and south is kind of relative to where you are You know as an east and west up or down left or right that terminology is not very good, but that's what we're using right now so So the API that exposes that we expose just matches Neutron directly, and that's why I was saying it was kind of passing it through And there's multiple implementation of Neutron networks inside open-stack itself so the open daylight open-stack plug-in just passes through which is Which is a good way to start because it just made the open-stack plug-in a lot simpler And it pushes the complexity down into open-stack, and then on the left I'm sorry down into open daylight So on the left here you can see kind of what the picture is so we use Neutron ML to Mechanism driver, and then it talked to rest API's inside open daylight, and then Neutron service was inside there So and you know that it works fairly well The integration with btn and dove again is a little bit harder because they both want to control resources themselves Directly, and there's not an abstraction layer that would allow them both to kind of do that independently So you have to choose one which is kind of not optimal But that's one of the things we need to we need to learn a little bit better or deal with on the other hand If you're just running OBS OBS instances, it works very well. So what's the status of the integration? ML 2 driver got in that ice house, which is nice supports VXL and GRE There's nice dev stack support it got merged upstream and it basically you can run out open daylight It's a top-level service inside dev stack, which is really nice if you're if you're using that Neutron API services now in an open daylight So we made a lot of progress here and it it provides a Neutron API and you know, so there's multiple implementations it can handle and the initial ML 2 Plugin for focus mostly on the core Neutron functionality and still uses some older components, but It's moving pretty quickly So where are we? with this one our idea is We have a quite a few updates planned for helium remember the release that we have now is called hydrogen By the way, you know when we get to lithium and you know beyond beryllium plutonium, I don't know how that's gonna work out, you know, but it's what the community wanted so we have a Various updates planned for helium and you know including Plugging plugging changes for stability improvements, which is one of the again This is one of the big struggles in open daylight right now is stability versus features And we want to be able to notify From ODL to the mechanism driver once ODL is set up the host the port on the host We can't do that right now Security groups implemented with open flow rules. That's kind of a logical thing that you might want to do L3 routing handled by open daylight and don't do that removes the need for the L3 agent, which we want to get rid of that and The obvious is a did anything else that comes up plus You know fixing all the bugs that are in this thing So a lot of this work was done by Kyle kind of sorry. He's not here He could talk a lot more about what was interesting to him in that but You know, we made a lot of progress against this So we have a lot of open-stack Utilization of open daylight and actually it's the integration really Demonstrated something that we wanted to kind of work on a little bit Which is what is the relationship between open-stack and open daylight and so open-day lights Intended to be kind of a control platform that would sit underneath open open stack But exactly how it's kind of like people waving their hands a lot about yeah, that sounds good a lot of PowerPoint pictures But now we have this so it's it's much better than PowerPoint Let's see So that's where we're at with the integration, but we learned a lot About just doing open source in the process of this. How many people have been in the open source community for you know two years or longer? Okay, not everybody you guys are mostly like me. I'm kind of new to the open source community and so here's what I learned Let's see. Oh, I wrote a blog on it's down I'm sure you guys can get these slides at the end of this and if not, I'll just send me an email and I'll send them to you but the first thing I learned was that Community building is the core is a core objective and in fact the idea that you could do innovation through collaboration is extremely powerful and If you didn't know that You could just look outside the doors there and to kind of get the idea you know so Building a community around open daylight and how Anna and integrating with the open stack community is core Objective because you know, but by the way if you don't have that you might have a nominal open source project But it's not Leveraging what's interesting about open source. So the idea that you slap a some kind of open source language License on your code and put it up on github doesn't make it open source in that deep way Code is calling in the realm. So I'm sitting on the TSC call and I'm going wow, you know nobody cares about anything but code here and That is a key thing and in fact When the the hydrogen release happened right just immediately prior to the open daylight summit Well, it's really tough to keep open stack and open daylight straight here up here The Linux foundation had this idea that what they would do is they would build build these challenge coins They're kind of like military challenge coins So everybody who was a committer to hydrogen the hydrogen release got one of these coins and the coin I wish I could kind of show it to you a little bit But it's kind of a cool like thing, you know, and so everybody got one who was a committer because code is calling in the realm coin and Then Engineering systems this is Madhu hanging out in this Google hangout while they were doing OS OVS DB development the engineering systems that we were that we were using were so sophisticated in terms But just basically open source or open source like tools And they were and it turned out that those tools were as almost important as the artifacts that we were building And look and by that I mean engineering systems but by that I mean tool chains as well as how we communicate IRC all of those other things and There's kind of There's there's kind of something like if you if you follow this down to the logical conclusion of this You kind of learn something and this is kind of what I learned And by the way, well, here's the thing Engineering artifacts aren't the thing that is the source of sustainable advantage or in it or or Innovation anymore, and you know working in a vendor that makes things. That's not a popular statement but What is important is what I said earlier is the engineering systems the culture and the people and processes and the open source thing really embodies this Excuse me if you could compile this down one more time you get this What you build is not really as important as how you build it and that I heard this I heard this in a different way yesterday or the day before Maybe it was yesterday When the in the keynote the guy was talking about the good cheap and fast triangle And what he said was if that's morphed into fast fast and fast because you can build good and you can build feet Cheap out of fast. That's the same thing. It's it's a corollary at this so I'm in So I'm talking to some people In China about this and they were saying well, you know open daylight is pretty unstable I'm wondering we're going to be able to use it and I was thinking how do I talk to it is you know By the way, it's getting a lot better, but it was like every other open source project of the scale It's there's it's dynamic in the early days right chaotic So I was trying to explain to some folks in China and here's what I came up with tell me if you if you can grok this So I was trying to make an analogy to the early solar system. So in the earlier solar system You know everything's chaotic, you know people are trying to get their code in Rocks are flying around everything And and anything with enough, you know anything with enough gravity, you know people like enough Starts to you know Collide with one another and we just saw this in open daylight and in fact Everything is fluid and molten like the earth in the early days asteroids blasting into everything epic collisions That's what happens in the early days of open source But in the end of it, you got a really nice blue planet that we like or the Linux kernel or open stack So you got a kind of um You got a kind of uh, you know wait that out a little bit in the early days of this See how am I doing on time? Let me give you a few metrics from open daylight so you can get an idea of From hydrogen so you can get an idea of how it happened In the early days, we had a couple only a few projects at the end we had 16 projects what it is I mentioned and When I made the slide there were seven new projects, but now they're more So open daylight had You know a quite a bit of code in it and it broke down like this It was it's written in Java. So of course mostly Java the C++ stuff is really External in some ways they're like proxies So you build a you build some chunk of blob of this thing over here And then you put a plug-in southbound plug-in an open daylight to talk to this whatever this other thing is and then it proxies the service Some see some Python So this is something that's kind of interesting and again. This is the stability versus Features thing there are 1.5 million lines of code or 1.05 million lines of code in hydrogen That seems like quite a bit but The comparison that's being trying to make is that you know open stack took quite a bit longer to get to that scale Now is that good or bad a lot of people are gonna say that's good I'm on the fence and again, it's the same trade-off. I think we looked at this a little bit But the project itself has growing membership, you know, it's up and to the right Okay, sorry about the animation here. I don't like that. So what's in helium? Okay, so here's the helium simultaneous release plan So we think we're gonna have Helium, you know out on this time schedule and as I said earlier hydrogen Well, you know didn't quite make it but you can find all of this stuff on the wiki Just look for it. Just go to wiki.opendalight.org and you'll see this release plan there But so far we're moving along pretty pretty On cadence we want to get on it You know we want to get on the cadence like open stack as like maybe over six months or so And we want it to be deterministic because developers need that determinism to figure out When do I have to be ready to go into the simultaneous release when you know when when do I have to hit all these milestones? So we want to get on a more deterministic cadence. That's about six months so in the queue There's all kinds of stuff in there and now you might argue that's a lot of stuff and it is some of these things aren't In the incubation yet, so there's Gotcha proposed projects So application policy plug-in is something that came from Cisco It's I think it got renamed to group group based policy So it's a group based policy Then there are all a bunch of other projects here that people have proposed Oh the pack a packet cable PC mm manager that one did make it through incubation I'll show you that in a second and some of these other ones are kind of interesting somebody wants to do A simulator on top of Open Daylight. There's data persistence. We don't we don't have good. We don't have good Data store models yet it the original controller used something called an infinite span Which is a which is fine if you're doing If you're doing database like and transactional like operations, but networking doesn't really really likes to see what's called eventual Consistency more than strong consistency Oops, okay so There are a few really interesting ones that are that are coming up. So this first one SDN I SDN I I really I really I think this one's kind of interesting because what they're trying to do is do So now here, you know, what's east and what's west but you know Confederation it's about confederation and they they intend to use BGP to do this as a first cut Open contrail they have a plug-in that actually you can talk Open contrail southbound. They're a protocol southbound. So you could use the northbound neutron plug neutron interface for open daylight to talk to contrail There's some subscriber awareness stuff people are updating the L2 switching infrastructure Secure network bootstrapping infrastructure people are trying to figure out. How do I get these switches and controllers to trust one another? That's by the way, that issue is completely ignored and in most of the SDN Implementation of literature Triple a there's no triple a service in SDN. We're trying to get that service function chaining while everybody wants that So what what has actually been through to incubation this application policy plug-in thing Which is actually now renamed group-based policy There's a toolkit that has various different things that you need just to just to support development Documentation has actually become a project. So open daylight was kind of let me put it this way slim on documentation I Dynamic resource reservation Negotiable data path models is kind of interesting. This is TTPs Table typing patterns from the ONF. So this is a way of telling flexible switching infrastructure How to how to arrange the tables in the switch? Root parent was about how to do better release management and op flex is is a kind of a policy based Protocol that came from Cisco as well So those are we have all those in incubation and I all of those I anticipate are gonna go into helium and just in case you're Wondering one of the things I did And I don't know actually know how this works in OpenStack But one of the things I did when I first got on the TSC And became the chair of the TSC as I opened up the TSC calls to anybody who wants to be on them and and the mailing list because I was really not a big fan of the way say the IS IESG operates in the IETF.  There's an open-source project. There's nothing that's secret in here so if you get on the wiki wiki.opendaylight.org and scroll down towards this TSC page or something if you click on there There's a whole WebEx information When what the WebEx is where the IRC channels are and all of that and tomorrow What we this is the agenda I have for tomorrow and what we're gonna do is mostly about creation reviews because you have to do a Creation review before you can get into the simultaneous release and tomorrow's the last day to do that So these four projects are are up for tomorrow and that will probably take most of our time So please join if you want to listen what's going on or you have by the way you can talk too I don't restrict the discussion to okay. I'm down to I'm down to like two minutes or whatever I don't ever restrict the discussion to only the TSC members and we have many people in the community who Who are just active on those calls and they're not TSC members So if you like it if you like please come along and come along for a ride Let me just say a few things There's some quasi-technical things. We got to continue to build community. That's that's really important Um, we have the code color quality and and coverage, you know stability performance bug fixes You know, we really need that and again I'm not really sure how that gets handled in open stack I know that I know that ice house at least in the case of neutron Really focused on this really focused on stability and performance and bug coverage. So we have to do that Distributed systems. We don't have that nailed down. We like I said we have in finish band, but we're looking at Acca Staffing well release engineering. We don't have it actually a release engineer documentation Engineering systems that Linux foundation supports us Andrew Is really great We need fewer humans in the loop when we did the last release. It was way too manual Wasn't automated enough and that had to do with the fact that we botched up a little a little bit of the numbering of things and Basically, we need more code that writes code in the in the project fewer humans more automation Not that I don't like the humans that we got a lot of nice humans Yeah, and of course, you know sustaining engineering is always a problem, right that, you know, nobody wants to fix bugs There's millions of bugs performance and scalability code quality and new projects and I think I'm out of time That's that by the way By the way, if you if you have any questions about it if you open daylight if you want to if you want to come along and play You want to do some integration with open stack? There's plenty of people, you know Talk to me send. There's plenty of lists that you can join. It's plenty of IRC's come along for the ride


Okay, good evening. It is Sunday the 6th of March I hope you're doing well and our usual wrap-up of the major headlines to be aware of from this weekend particularly on the Ukraine situation But also an outlook for the week We do have things like the eCV meeting and also US CPI on Thursday is expected to come in at 7.9% so what does that mean for the Fed going forward and the marketing itself will talk about that in a moment But let's kick things off with looking at the map of the latest where Ukraine has called off an Attempt this weekend to evacuate civilians from the city of Maripole, which is based down here in the southeastern corner Very contentious area of course because this is in the Russian separatist area of Donetsk and Luhansk and also just north of where Forces over the Crimea have taken control over that southern port side of the country Military experts still expect Russia's main objective will remain to be the encirclement of Kiev the capital Here's some of the direction of Russian advances at this point in time the capital appears in terms of Russian Progress has been very little overall because of tactical and believed to be logistical failures However, this will be a key thing We'll be looking out for later on this week as they will look to still continue to take on the capital city in order to Neutralize the country in itself from a Russian perspective on that point Vladimir Putin has met with his Turkish counterpart as you can see here Erdogan and said that Kiev must agree to his demands if fighting is to end and just to refresh your memory What are Putin's demands or he wants de-militarization of Ukraine and recognition of Crimea and To give you an idea again of go back to the drawing board of what is the rationale and why is actually Russia doing this? Well, here's a look at NATO and how NATO has expanded eastwards Which really kind of cuts to the heart of the rationale of why Russia has taken this action So here's Russia of course on the right-hand side Ukraine here in the yellow and as you can see The UK or England with with France Italy and the rest have been part of NATO for a long time But what's happened is over time going through 1999 2004 through to 2020 specifically as NATO has gained further geographic coverage further into Eastern Europe So starting up here where you've got the likes of Lithuania Latvia Then you come down to Poland Slovakia Hungary and then Romania down here and if you look at this then from a Geography points of view you can see the rationale why Ukraine is such an important territory for Russia to hold off the NATO advance further east because if you actually look here this this country here obviously north of Ukraine is Belarus and Belarus forms part of what's known as the CSTO, which is the collective security treaty Organization so it's kind of the Russian counter to that of NATO which is mainly Western Europe This would include countries like Russia themselves Belarus But also Georgia down here in the south and looking at this from a defensive military position You can see Georgia here to cut off some of the southern side of the entry from the geography coming up through the black and Caspian sea the annexation of Crimea of course in 2014 to take control of the black sea as a defensive position and Then you can see the importance of they have Overall kind of control of Belarus in this treaty But then Ukraine you can see why it's so important because otherwise it would open up an expansive territory for then the potential Not the likelihood of this would ever happen for their NATO and Western forces to be able to move into Russia And obviously Russia very vulnerable With that because of the planes of the way of the setup of the geography of Russia It would mean that the land here is so expansive It would be Indefensible from a Russian point of view and hence the reason they have to take control and hold on to Ukraine as a last kind of red line So hopefully that kind of updates you and reminds you of why we're at this particular juncture and why Russia is very unlikely to let this go at this point of time because strategically The geography is that Ukraine holds the key here because with them already with Belarusian control This gives them a fortified kind of geography line of defense at this point of time The other things then to be aware of a few other headlines is what's been going on financially with Russia Obviously under great pains at the moment with the latest Sanctions and Russia and Russian companies will be allowed to pay foreign creditors in rubles It's come to light over the weekend according to decree signed by Vladimir Putin on Saturday as a way to starve off Defaults while the capital controls continue to remain in place The other things that we've heard as well this weekend is that Russia's VTB Bank is preparing to wind down its European operations after being hit hard by sanctions according to the FT As you can see here citing people familiar with internal discussions Equally so spur bank Russia's biggest lenders decided to exit the European market last week and together spur bank and VTP account for more than half Half of Russia's banking market so really severe Impact that this is having of course at this point in time We're unable to see Russian related stocks They haven't traded as yet since all of this has begun and the Russian stock market will be closed For trading to at least Wednesday But it wouldn't be too much of a shock to see that rolled over a little bit more Again, and if my corporate perspective although there's been lots of companies now coming to light The latest being that visa and master cards announced over the weekend that it will suspend their operations to Russia So that's kind of your latest roundup of what's been going on there The other things that are kind of indirectly related to this With the energy market of course being a key Component that markets are looking at here because of the knock-on implications for inflation and subsequent then reaction function from central banks The US is said to be in talks with European countries on a joint approach to any ban on Russian oil Imports that could still ensure adequate supplies as according to the US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken over the weekend So keeping an eye on that for sure And then elsewhere there's Libya and Iran updates as well to be aware from an energy perspective So for Libya oil production has fallen to 920,000 Bows a day as the Shahara their biggest field and El feel have both been shut down to give you a bit of context to drop down to 920 comes as crude was pumping at about 1.2 million as of the middle of last week in Libya The Parliament and while this is happening is Parliament swore in a new government last week to replace the existing PM and His administration But he's resisting an attempt to remove him from power and that's heightened risk of renewed civil war in Libya Which is very commonplace in that country of course seeing big volatile swings in their amount of production But of course then that means that there's less production albeit We're talking just under 300,000 worth, but of course this comes in the context of at the moment WTI crude closing at a 115 handle the closing futures trade last week At a 2008 high the other thing then that people are looking out for in the energy market is Iran So this is another factor that could well support the bull case for for crude oil price prices at the moment This is because traders are watching out for any further delays in the Iranian nuclear talks following Russia's demands that they want US guarantees that the sanctions it faces over the Ukraine conflict will not hurt its trade with Taran and and we know of course that there's a close relationship between those two countries if even if the deal does come through I was reading a few things over this weekend and it was saying that if a deal was struck and Iran does go back to that 2015 nuclear accord deal in whatever shape or form It would take several months to restore oil flows even if it reaches a deal and obviously the the pain at the moment of Supply risk is very immediate. And so even if it was to strike a deal Which I still think I've always been quite bearish on the prospects of that happening and particularly given the runs close ties to that of Russia I don't tend to see that happening this week and it could be another bullish factor as well to support prices going further forward Iran's top authority supreme leader Comey Kamini of course has publicly and privately been calling for closer ties with Russia Due to the deep mistrust that they have as a collective over the United States So hard to see that deal going through anytime soon So any of that risk of kind of thoughts of supply coming to market to fill the void of Looking to counter at the rising price. I think it's probably unlikely to happen at this point. And then you've got China You probably would read over the weekend. They've unveiled a growth target of about 5.5 percent 5.5 percent in many countries would kill for that type of growth Level at this point in time But that is as far as the target is concerned from China the lowest in three decades It does follow a year-on-year growth of just 4% in the fourth quarter of 2021 But at 5.5 percent in context it is actually above what some other Estimates have been so it's a little bit more bullish on their side and say the IMF which I think was down at a 5 percent range So it's not as bad as the kind of headlines are coining it at this point beyond that There's something bigger here for China and really that is the idea of them shoring up its political significance to the Communist Party and President Xi is expected to make that unprecedented bid to stay as the leader for a third term at a key party meeting Of course later this year and a couple things that have been happening of this Russian The aggressiveness of this Russia move and obviously ties between those two countries. We're getting increasingly stronger. It was only prior to the The Olympic Games that we had the Winter Olympics in China where the two were talking about an unlimited potential for their relationship But then Russia going ahead with what they've done seemingly not Informing completely the Chinese of their actions up front has seen China pivot more towards the West So she's got to deal with that. She's also dealing with the housing market seeing mounting defaults He's also dealing with the country cracking down on the biggest technology companies have scared off a lot of foreign investment So there's a number of things going on here and Xi needs to silence the critics. He needs to also keep growth kind of just at pace in order to then really Cement then his legacy is we get in towards the back end of the year and we have this Him standing for his unprecedented bid to continue on in power So the the end result here is most analysts are expecting China now to be looking to do further rate cuts Increased fiscal spending everything and anything to do to just get the economy firing again And we of course the herd last week about the Wall Street Journal breaking that news that although it's going to be about a Years time when they'll look to loosen coronavirus restrictions given they've had a zero tolerance policy There's certain cities that they'll be experimenting with and that could also help unlock some of that future growth Potential and it's important that he front loads that growth in order to then Really hit the mark when they have that top-level Communist party meeting later on this year Other things that I thought just just quickly that was quite interesting one was an equity story So keeping an arm deliver who when they open later on on Monday U.S. Food delivery company door dash is said to have considered a takeover bid for London-based delivery But the two sides have failed to reach an agreement Of course deliver who's had a shocking performance Since their their IPO, which would have been what a year ago or so So they'd be interested to see how how their shares react when they get underway But as far as this week is concerned, I'm not going to go everything over everything in the line by line statement All I'm gonna say is really Thursday is the key day of which I'm most excited about from a schedule point of view and that's because you got two major releases one being the ECB their latest interest rate announcement they're expected to postpone any major policy decisions when they meet and Preferring to maintain as much flexibility as possible while assessing the economic fallout from the war in Ukraine They do also put out their latest forecasts on things like Inflation and growth and so forth but contrary to the December meeting the ECB will want to avoid Hinting at the end dates for quantitative easing or start dates for rate hikes because you know If the pattern prior to the Russian Ukraine situation happening was that March was kind of penciled in when there was a lot of policy Maneuvers to happen the Fed to trigger the rate rise cycle the ECB to end the active kind of QE and so forth and In terms of details probably that's going to be a much more light touch now as they try to Hold things off to see more clarity over how the Ukraine situation plays out and energy prices and so forth The other thing of course on Thursday's US CPI comes out As expected at seven point nine percent year-on-year up from the seven point five percent So we're talking about the the highest year-on-year Rates of inflation in the US since the early 1980s The rising cost of heating oil gasoline has been exacerbated of course because of the conflict in Ukraine and Analysts at Barclays say that's likely to have driven energy prices up by around four point seven percent themselves alone just on the energy side of things Regardless of inflation in the US likely to go up to near eight percent Is it going to really change the game for what markets are expecting from the Fed? I don't think so So as far as the March meeting is concerned, which will be next week on the 16th I think that the 50s probably off the table as per what power's comments were it is semi-annual testimony last week Hinting towards preference for 25. So I think that's locked in and then the subsequent rate hikes will of course be looking out No dot plots and further communication when that meeting comes around And then the other thing that's happening on a Friday, which could be quite interesting You can see I'm looking at a calendar here from ing and their analysts have said that they're closely monitoring the University of Michigan sentiment figure which comes out on the Friday and mainly that's to see if the Russian invasion and its potential economic hit to household spending power Via the sharp increase in gasoline prices is having any type of impact yet further on the Sentiment of the US consumer and the worst thing that you're going to want to have is spiking inflation demoralizing consumers at a point where you're having to hike rates hence the reason why this kind of risk of Recession in the future Given the rates hikes to come could well be a further talking point that will intensify over over the period ahead All right, that is it so quite a lot to digest there I know if you want to refresh on any of the notes that I've covered there you can just jump on my my Twitter account my handles there and Yeah, anything that substantial that happens on the Russian situation I'll be sure to put out a fresh video throughout the rest of the week But thanks for watching and have a good week ahead


Hey, this is Brett and this 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500 Double Cab Short Box is stock number 13063Z. I am here at Summit Automotive in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, your new and used heavy duty truck headquarters. This 2018 Chevy Silverado has the 6 liter V8 gas engine. This truck has been fully safety and inspected by our service shop. As a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. I'm going to go all the way around inside, underneath, start it up, and take a look under the hood in this video. Graphite Metallic is the color, and I shoot all my videos in 4K, so if you have HD capabilities on your computer, tablet, smartphone, or television, I highly recommend turning them on right now because it is your best way to check out the quality, condition options, and cleanliness of the vehicle before seeing it in person. And if you like the video on how I do things here at Summit Automotive, consider clicking the subscribe button to my YouTube channel, and then click the bell notifications and you'll get updates on the videos I do each and every day here at Summit Automotive. This one comes with the 20 inch polished aluminum rims, and it has Goodyear Wrangler SRA tires. These are LT26560R20s, and I would say they have probably about 80 to 90% of the tread left on them, very new tires on here, frame and underbodies, and really nice condition. This is a one owner clean title history out of Missouri. Front fender is in excellent condition, projector lamp headlamps, and the factory fog lights. You also get the front bumper parking sensors, and that front bumper is in fantastic condition as well. Didn't see any dents or dings in there, and the lower balance looks really good too. The hood is in nice shape, no dents or dings on there, you do get the cab lights up top. Passenger side front fender looks really good too. And the passenger side rim, no major scuffs or scrapes. Graphite metallic, really a cool color, it's got a lot of metal flake in it, under the right light, sparkles pretty nice. And as you go down this side of this 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500 double cab LTZ, take note of how clean that body is, how reflective and mirror like that paint is. I take these HD videos, so if you are far away, or even if you're close by and you just cannot make the trip down, but you're still interested in purchasing the vehicle, you can see the truck, hear the truck, and have confidence in the vehicle that you're looking at before you even get here, so when you do get here, there's absolutely no surprises and you can make a smart and informed buying decision from wherever you're at. And if this video helps you make that buying decision, let your salesmen know that you saw the video, that it was helpful, and that Brett sent you, and then I can take videos another day. And if you liked the video, subscribe to the YouTube channel in the upper right hand part of the screen.  That's pretty typical on these GMs for this body style. Lower rockers all look really, really good. Insignia Crojon. Them has some nice painted step bars, passenger side box, I didn't see any dents or dings on there, and coming around to the back, rear bumper is in gray shape, has the back of parking sensors, full towing package and the rear bumper steps, receiver hitch four pin and seven pin wiring, and that tailgate is in really nice condition as well. Didn't see any dents or dings on there, it has the shock down assist, so it's never going to slam on you. We do have a receiver hitch reducer back here, I'll probably put that in the back of the truck so it doesn't go missing, and we have fifth wheel bed rails as well, it also has LED bed lighting up there, and on the other side, turn those on with the cargo lamps, tailgate shuts nice and solidly, and as you go down on the driver's side, just as clean as that passenger's side, you get the Z71 sticker there, didn't see any dents or dings in the box, looks really good, and for full disclosure, this back room is in excellent shape as well. Down the rest of the side of the truck, doors and cab all look really good, does have the telescopic till mirrors, built in directional signals, and LED side lights, they telescope out like so, and they fold in like that. My guess is they are powerful then, which they are. Inside, the LTZ package gives you the tan leather interior, there are no rips, there are no tears on the seats, both these front seats are heated and cool, you get factory all-weather floor mats, auto headlamps turned off four-wheel drive and factory brake controller, tilt and telescopic steering wheel, power windows power locks and power mirrors, and memory driver's seat. Like I said, these mirrors do power fold in, and I always like showing both sides, so you know that both sides are working properly. It does have the wireless cell phone charge pad.  Headliner is in nice shape, side curtain airbags, and these seats do fold up for extra storage back here, those all-weather floor mats keep your carpeting looking like new, and you do get some other factory all-weathers back here as well. Bottoms of the doors all look really good, Bose sound system, power windows, power locks, memory driver's seat, and we'll hop inside, check out the miles, the radio, and everything that this truck has to offer on the interior. You can see that this one has 24,837 miles, you do get a digital speedometer, and that nice Z71 instrument cluster comes with the heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, Bluetooth and information center controls on the right, cruise controls and heated steering wheel controls on the left, audio controls on the back of the steering wheel, and this one comes with the six-speed automatic transmission with the optional tap shift. This one does have the Chevy MyLink radio, has AM, FM, and Serious XM radio capabilities, it also has a projection manager where you can project your cell phone to the screen via Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, so while this one does not have the factory navigation system, you can project your cell phone with Waze or Google Maps on it to the screen, and then it's like you have nav right in the screen, so that's a really sweet system too. This is also where your backup camera shows up, CD player, heated and cooled seat buttons, dual climate controls, power pedal stability control, that's for your cargo lamps, it's also for your LED side lights and your LED bed lights, you can turn those parking sensors on or off, and it does have downhill assist control. Two USBs, two 12-volt power points, and 110-volt, 150-watt plug-in. Passenger side floor mat and seat are in fantastic condition, no rips or tears on there, and once again the headliner is in really nice shape, you do get map lights up here with home link buttons for your garage door security systems and lane systems, and power side mirror window button. On-star and SOS buttons in the mirror, we'll start it up and take a look under the hood. Starts right out, no check engine lights or anything like that, other than my hood's open, and I would personally like to thank you for checking out the video today. There are those LED side lights, they are super bright, and hopefully from this HD video you'll have been able to verify the quality, condition, options, and cleanliness of this truck all the way around, inside and out. And under the hood we have the 6-liter V8 gas engine, engine bay is very, very clean, runs very smooth, and once again this truck has been fully safe and inspected by our service shop, has a fresh oil and filter change, all the fluids have been checked and topped off, and this truck is 100% ready to go. There is your emission sticker, and you can see all the lights are working nicely, and I would highly recommend this 2018 Chevy Silverado 2500 double cab short box LTZ from a quality and condition standpoint.
