Let's double you up like Sir Mixalot. I gotta get that song on the playlist. Sir Mixalot, baby got back. All right, and here's the double up. We're doubling up your names. Get it? Let's roll it.

One, two, and three. Remember this is a half case from a fresh case. Second half is in the store already. jazby's casebreaks.com. Snakes down to rocks. Nice. Matthew's here too. Just saw him check in. Thanks. Matthew, thanks everybody. Let's see. What? That looks a little... What font should I use? That looks a little small too. Eric is here. It's like the animal not the pitcher. So not Aaron Sealy, but it's just Eric Seal like the animal. Thanks for clarifying Eric. I appreciate that. I gotta know. I don't know. Tyler with the diamond back. I don't know if I like this font either. This is a very important part of the show, folks. I'm using some sort of serif font. Maybe some Tahoma? We'll go with that. Tyler with the diamond back. Sean with the blue jays. Chris with the Marlins. Sarah with the Phillies. Tyler with the Rangers. Matt with the Indians. Robert with the Mets. Eric with the Royals. Sean with the Pirates. Robert with the A's. Eric Seal. With another sea animal. Rays. Russell with the Braves. Mark with the Mariners. Matt with the Cardinals. Kyle with my Dodgers.

Let's sort by column B by team. And I'm gonna flip back to the screen in just a second. But while you're considering trades, let's pop open this case right here. And let's see which half we're gonna do. All right, so there's five bucks on the left side. Five bucks on the right side. You can also see it on the top camera right there.  I'm gonna select that flamingo die right here.  And we'll go one, two, three for the left side and four, five, six for the right side. And it's gonna be one. So it's gonna be left side. So this side, we will save for... This is break number... Yeah, so we'll save this for break 10. Weird to write at that angle, but there you go. So we mark those all 10, so we know they're from the same case. And I'll leave those back on my back table, because I feel like we've got a good chance at running that back tonight. All right, we're gonna pause the video. When we come back, we're gonna see if there's any trades and then the break. Stick around. All right, welcome back, folks. There were no trades, so let me... We closed the trade window already. And let's print that list. We'll do it live. And then we'll rip open these five boxes. Thanks, everybody, for getting in on the action. I appreciate it. It's a fresh case. So the second half is already in the store, jaspyscasebreaks.com. Absolute, I feel like, is a pretty underrated product. So give it a go. All right, so here's the final print out right there. Hot off the presses. Thanks, everybody, for getting in. Thanks for spending a bit of your Tuesday with us. Tuesday the 8th, 2021. We're already eight days into June. All right, so all cards ship, so you'll be getting all this stuff. And then, of course, all these numbered cards will top load before they're sorted and shipped out. There's Trevor Story, 14 out of 99 for Mark and the Rockies. Your two hits behind Spencer Torgelson is Jay Hay, Jason Hayward, Tools of the Trade dual relic for the Cubbies. That'll go to Eric Seale. And behind Torgelson is another cub, Braylon Marquez. Three color, there's a bit of white peeking out there. Three color, triple relic, an autograph, 21 out of 25. Another cub for Eric. It's a personal mini box for you. And the Torgelson, of course, will go to Robert. We've got Whit Merrifield to 149, unsung heroes. He is a bit underrated, isn't he? And then we've got Starling Marte to 99. That'll be for Miami. Chris with the Marlins and Eric Seale with the KC Royals. And your hits behind Jay Cronerworth is Buster Posey. Tools of the Trade dual relic for my rivals, the Giants to 49. That'll be for Brandon Hall. Buster Posey kind of turning back the clock a little bit this season. Behind Jay Cronerworth is Shane McClanahan. Two color quad relic, eight out of 25 for Tampa Bay. That's for Eric S. And the Rays. It's Rebels saying Whit. Oh, and a bit of a slump this year. But he is an unsung hero, I think. I think he's a pretty solid player. All right. Next box. I don't think there's any... Is there a morning game today? No. There's no active baseball games right now, but got a nice slate of games coming up. My Dodgers are in Pittsburgh. It's a toasty 88 degrees in Pittsburgh, it says, at PNC Park. A little low 70s here by the sea from Los Angeles. There's Rhino. Classic beach weather here. There's Kyle Lewis to 99. And behind George Springer is Yoshi Tsutsugo. This is still Rays edition here. Rays. He had a decent season last year. Not a good season this year. Rays released him. Dodgers picked him up and he's been doing all right. Filling in here and there. Eric with the Rays. Behind George Springer is Braxton Garrett. Nice. These baseball signatures are really cool. And that is for Chris Miller and the Marlins. We've got Justin Verlander to 199. For the Stroes, Matt Rafferty. We've got Babe Ruth, the Babe to 149. Icons insert going to Robert and the Yankees. And another Yankee, Jason Dominguez. Patches. Got a bit of the pinstripe right in the middle, 95 out of 99. Another one for Robert and the Bronx Bombers. And then behind Braylon Marquez is Raphael Marchand. For the Phillies. Good penmanship there. Nice gold ink autograph. Seven out of ten. Nice low number for Sarah and the Fightin' Fills. It's a sharp looking card. All right. Next three boxes. Braves are in Philadelphia. That looks like a good matchup. Mets are in Baltimore. Rockies at Marlins. Astros at the Red Sox. Brewers in Cincinnati. Mariners are in Detroit. Nationals are in Tampa Bay. That's a national game, FS1. Giants at Rangers. Yankees at Twins. Blue Jays at White Sox. The big slate of games here. Indians at Cardinals. Royals at Angels. The Snakes are in Oakland. And the Cubbies are in San Diego. And of course we'll be watching. We'll be following along the baseball scores throughout the day. And of course playoff basketball. We've got playoff hockey tonight too. Lightning are in Carolina. Golden Knights are in Colorado. And the Hawks trying to go up two nothing on the Sixers tonight. Both of the NBA games are TNT games. Hawks at Sixers. Clippers in Utah. Game one of that series. There's to 149. Rhino. And we got Max Freed to 99. Uh-oh. Who was the new royal pitcher last night, Rebel? Pulled in the first inning after 39 pitches. Four runs. A 54.0 ERA. It's a rough start. There's Sammy Sosa. Slammin' Sammy Sosa to 99. That is for Eric and the Cubs. Hopefully not a big prospect, Rebel. And that would be hashtag bad for the hobby. We want things that are hashtag good for the hobby. Billy Martin Reveals and Adonis Medina for Philadelphia. Another hit for Sara and the Fightin' Fills. 14 out of 99. Oh, I've heard of Jackson Kowar. He's supposed to be somewhat of a highly-tatted prospect. Hopefully the next start will be better. Could only go up from there. Oh, nice Kaboom card for Tampa Bay. Eric Seal with Randy Arozareña. Kaboom! Love these Kaboom cards. There's out of 199. Ed Rausch. They're general. I've seen cases without a Kaboom card. And I've seen cases with two Kaboom cards. So I don't know if they're consistent by case, but there's our first one. 39 out of 99. Nomar Mazzara, two-color dual relic. That's for the South Siders. Mad with the shy socks. And behind Raphael Devers is another Braxton Garrett. Baseball signature. Rookie Otto going to Chris and the Marlins. Gotcha. Kowar was trapped in 2018 along with Brady Singer. That's right. I think Kowar just had a little bit of the jitters or something. Yeah, I'd be a little nervous too, making my first big league start with fans in the stands and everything. After a lot of these minor leaguers didn't have a season last year. So I can excuse that. All right. There's the second to last box. 91 out of 99. Luis Patino for Tampa Bay. And Hyunjin Roo to 99 for Toronto. It'll be for Sean. Behind Trey Turner is Domingo Leyva. I kind of like that pattern right there in his tools of the trade car. That'll be for the Diamondbacks. Tyler with the snakes. And behind Trey Turner is, hey, we were just talking about him, Brady Singer. Rookie autograph for Eric and the Kansas City Royals. How's Brady Singer doing this season? 3-5, 4-8-8, ERA, 62 strikeouts and 59 innings. It's a rookie campaign. It's supposed to be one of the, although we made 12 starts last year. It's supposed to be one of the bigger name prospects for the Royals. We're rooting for him. We're rooting for this guy right here too, Bobby Whit Jr. There's Joey Bart to 149. And there's my guy, Mookie Betts, 12 out of 99. Mookie Betts a little off this year so far, but I think there's some signs he's going to go back to his usual hitting ways. 52 out of 99, Brandon Lau, two-color dual relic. Tampa Bay, Eric. And behind Bobby Whit Jr. is signature quads. That's Jared Oliva. It's a good-looking card. Pretty sharp. 47 out of 50. Tools of the trade. Quad relic and autograph for the Pirates. Sean O'Leary with the buckos. Dodgers are in Pittsburgh tonight. Is this guy playing? Jared Oliva, I think only has, he's not making any regular starts, but still a lot of season to go. So hang on to this, see how it works out. And there's Bobby Whit Jr. right there. Prospects card for KC. Final box, ladies and gentlemen. Remember, the second half is in the store. Jaspy'scasebrakes.com. All right, there's Anthony Rizzo to 149 and Byron Bucks into 199. Is there only one hit down there? I think so. So behind Roy Campanella is just one hit. Is there three hits here? Maybe. Brian Abreu on average. I guess that's how they get you. Two-color dual relic for the Stroze. That's going to be for Matt Rafferty. On this side, we've got Ricky Henderson, the man of steel to 149. Got Cal Ripken, the Iron Man to 199. And behind Reggie Jackson, power insert. We're going to be your final hits. It's going to be Amin Rosario. Two-color dual relic. Tools of the trade card for Cleveland. So there's Metz colors in there, but the card goes to Cleveland. That'll be for Matt. Cleveland, this is for you. And behind Reggie Jackson is Jorge Mateo. It's a nice set of patches there. Dual relic in autograph 36 out of 49 for Chris Miller and the tribe. And that's that boys and girls. Another nice break of 2021 absolute baseball in the books. Second half in the store on jaspyscasebreaks.com. I'm Joe and I'll see you next time for the next one. Bye-bye.


With the third pick, if one of those three quarterbacks that we've all been talking about, Caleb Williams, Drake May, Jayden Daniels is there. What are you doing, James White? You're now the general manager of the Patriots. They're looking. Congratulations. I'm biased, but I like Marvin Harrison, Jr. Like he said, Larry Fitzgerald type is fluid, smooth, big, fast, make contested catchers run after catch. He can do everything. I think this drive class, as far as quarterbacks, pretty deep, you can get a guy, you can trade back into the back half of the first or the early second and get a talented guy, maybe like Bo Nicks and Michael Penning, somebody like that that can step in, maybe not right away, but midway through the season, maybe even next season and develop the guy. I think you can't go wrong if you drive a guy like Jayden Daniels, or if you get Drake May at number three. I don't have an issue with that, but I just think Marvin Harrison, Jr., he's just a for sure lock at being an NFL success at the wide receiver position. Is there one of these quarterbacks at the top of the draft that you do like, It's tough. I feel like all these guys can have the potential to be a day one starter. I like Drake May. He's big. He has a strong arm, you know, he plays with the toughness. You see it. He's breaking tackles, you know, in the backfield, still making throws. He has all the arm talent there. He's a very special football player. I think he's a guy who I liked in the pick at number three.

Now, we'll go to our final witness, Mr. Harold Feld, the Senior Vice President of Public Knowledge. Mr. Feld, thank you for joining us today. We look forward to your testimony, sir. Good morning. Thank you, Chairman. Chairman, Ranking Members, my name is Harold Feld. I'm Senior Vice President of Public Knowledge, a nonprofit dedicated to an open internet. It was also my privilege to participate as an advisory member of the U.S. delegation to Dubai. I am struck by the broad general agreement among the witnesses with regard to the inappropriateness of the ITU as a forum for regulating internet governance, and the very real threat to internet freedom we now face. In particular, I wish to voice my agreement with Commissioner McDowell's written testimony that the danger we face is real, and we must respond quickly with both engagement and firmness. I want especially to applaud and emphasize Commissioner McDowell's observation that we must make the multi-stakeholder alternatives to the ITU accessible to developing nations, which have traditionally lacked resources to fully participate in these forums. This inability to fully participate has created a feeling of disenfranchisement and resentment in some quarters, which drives many developing countries to see the ITU as a counterbalance to what they perceive as dominance of the internet by the United States and the developing world generally. But there is good news from Dubai as well. I want to focus on our enormous success in engaging with global civil society and how building on that success is a key building block to winning the global debate now in progress between those who agree with an open and transparent multi-stakeholder approach and those who embrace a traditional treaty organization dominated by government ministries and conducted most of its business behind closed doors. As Mr. Sherman said earlier, while the majority of governments may at the moment be in favor of a traditional treaty approach, as we saw in the lead-up to the wicked, the majority of the people of the world are not. The ITU has not traditionally been open to participation by civil society. In the lead-up to the wicked, protests of global civil society forced both the ITU and many member governments to backpedal at least publicly from the most aggressive proposals. The decision of many countries not to sign the ITRs and the statements issued by some signing nations limiting the scope of ITRs come in no small part from the vigorous efforts of civil society organization within these countries. In the lead-up to the wicked, civil society, including public knowledge, made several efforts to overcome barriers to participation. To its credit, ITU's Secretary General Dr. Hamdontore and the ITU staff responded to these criticisms and sought to engage with us, both before the wicked and in Dubai. The ITU webcast its plenary sessions and the meetings of its most important committee, allowing a window into what has until now been an utterly opaque process. In the end, however, civil society were forced to sit on the sidelines, unable to access key documents, unable to observe, never mind participate, in the actual working sessions behind closed doors and unable to speak with our own voices or engage directly with voting delegates. The United States played a vital role in supporting and encouraging the efforts of global civil society. First, the United States walked the walk on civil society by reaching out to domestic NGOs such as public knowledge and including us fully in consultation, proceeding wicked, and as part of the delegation. I am pleased to report that I and my colleagues from civil society were treated with the same courtesy, consideration, as our colleagues from industry. We had the same access and our contributions were given the same weight and respect. This vastly improved the credibility of the United States as a defender of transparency, inclusion, and internet freedom in the ITU process. Second, the United States directly engaged with global civil society. Ambassador Kramer himself held two personal meetings with international NGOs, one prior to the Wicked and one at the Wicked itself. Meeting for two hours was representatives of global civil society, including representatives from the developing global south, and genuinely engaged with them. These civil society organizations were able to take our concerns back to their own delegations and to advocate for support of our positions on limited ITU jurisdiction, not because these organizations agree with U.S. policy generally, but because we were successful in persuading them that their own aspirations for internet freedom were equally threatened by the expansion of ITU authority and the agenda advanced by certain countries trying to extend their online censorship regimes. Even those countries that ultimately signed the ITRs who began willing to dismiss our concerns and accuses of dominating the internet needed to at least reconsider their positions. To conclude, the good news is that the Dubai conference was just the beginning of the discussion around the globe on internet governance, not the end. We must build on this beginning going forward and on the alliances and relationships that we created in Dubai. To ensure that civil society and smaller developing countries can participate fully, the U.S. State Department and Congress should lead by example creating a fund to support the travel and registration of both civil society groups and small countries that are unable to afford to participate in multi-stakeholder processes. I would add that our industries and industries around the globe who depend upon these multi-stakeholder processes and upon coordination through volunteer efforts would likewise be well served to contribute to these efforts. Thank you to the members of the subcommittees for your time and I look forward to the opportunity to answer your questions.


Hi, my name is Julio Sanchez. I'm the product marketing engineer for our general-purpose analog and RF product portfolio at SD Microelectronics. In today's webinar, we will be talking about how to implement social distancing solutions with our Bluetooth low energy and the way ST can help our customers speed up their design and time to market. Now let's review the agenda for today. We will begin with a brief update on our Bluetooth low energy product portfolio. After this, we will highlight the key features of our Bluetooth energy M0 and M2 modules. Then we will talk about the need for social distancing and contact tracing applications based on Bluetooth LE to protect human health under today's challenges. And the way ST is helping in implementing this type of applications. We will also discuss the effect that rotation and positioning have over the RSSI value of the signal. We will also review on how ultra-low power consumption and low cost are key features for social distancing applications. We will also mention some of the examples of contact tracing applications in the market today based on our blue energy dash to SOC. And last but not least, we will conclude with the takeaways of this webinar. In regards to our Bluetooth low energy product portfolio, we have two main product offerings, depending on our customer needs in regards to features and processing capabilities. Our STM32 product family, which is based on a dual core SOC with a Cortex-M4 running the application and a Cortex-M0 Plus running the BLD stack with up to one meg of flash and 256K of RAM. On the other hand, we have our blue energy product family, where we have both a network app processor and an SOC product offering. Within our network app processor family, we have the BLDMS, which is a low cost solution for simple Bluetooth LE applications. And our most recent device, the BLD-2N, which is certified as Bluetooth 5.0. Both of these solutions give our customers the flexibility to choose the MCU the best fits their needs. Regarding our SOC product offering, we have our blue energy dash 1 and dash 2, based on a Cortex-M0 running at 32 MHz with up to 256K of flash and 24K of RAM. And our blue energy LP family of devices certified as BT 5.2, based on a Cortex-M0 Plus running at 64 MHz with up to 256K of flash and 64K of RAM. Fully compliant with the 2 Mbps second-fire, the long range capability and the advertising extension. The blue energy M0A and M0L are Bluetooth low energy network app processor modules based on the BLDMS. They go up to 6 dBms of output power compared to other modules in the market that can only achieve 4 dBms. This translates into further range capabilities. They communicate to the host MCU via SPI interface. They are pre-certified modules, which helps reduce the overall certification and engineering cost. This also brings flexibility to designers, since the connectivity block can be fixed and our customers cancel like the microcontroller the best fits their needs. The difference between them is that the blue energy M0A is power consumption optimized with an internal switching mode power supply and LSE. Whereas the blue energy M0L is cost optimized, powered by the internal LDO and the internal clock oscillator. They come in a small form factor, which makes it ideal for IoT applications and support the industrial temperature range going from minus 40 to 85 degrees. Their supply voltage goes from minus 1.7 to 3.6, which along with their ultra low power consumption makes them ideal for battery powered applications. Some of the key applications are smart home and industrial automation, remote control and monitoring devices. The blue energy M2SA and M2SP are based on the BLDMS.2 SoC, running on a Cortex M0 with 256K of flash and 24K of ultra low leakage RAM with an output power that goes all the way to 7 dBms in the M2SP. It comes with a rich peripheral set, which includes I2C, SPI, UART, DMA, PDM, just to mention a few. These are pre-serified modules, which helps, as we mentioned before, to reduce the overall certification and injury in costs. The blue energy M2 modules can also be used in network coprocessor mode, communicating to the host MCU using a UART or SPI interface. Giving designers access to the Bluetooth 4.2 feature set, and at the same time adding flexibility to their design. The difference between the blue energy M2SA and M2SP is that the M2SA comes with a high efficiency chip antenna and its power consumption optimized, with an internal switching mode power supply and LSE, whereas the blue energy M2SP is cost optimized. It integrates a PCB antenna, its powered by the internal LDO, and it runs on the internal oscillator. They also come in a small form factor, which makes it ideal for IoT applications. They also support industrial temperature range, going from minus 40 to 85 degrees, and its supply voltage is perfect for battery powered devices. In regards to key applications, we can find social distancing and contact tracing, home appliance, smart building automation devices, among others. Now, in regards to social distancing and contact tracing applications, we can use Bluetooth LA as a need to protect human health in all environments, especially under global or local pandemic conditions such as the ones we are facing today. With this in mind, we have once more taken a step ahead and have developed a highly efficient and low cost reference design based on our blue energy tile and our contact tracing SDK that our customers can use as their first step in the design of their Bluetooth enabled social distancing and contact tracing applications. We also bring flexibility to our customers. As mentioned before, we have fully certified modules that offer cost savings during the design process and speed up time to market. And with our system and chip, we offer a low cost, high performance integrated solution. Social distancing through Bluetooth LA can be achieved through beacons and scanning of Bluetooth LA nodes. Since the device sending the beacon advertises its transmit power, the receiving component can use the data in relation to its RSSI to determine the distance between both of them using the following equation. This implementation is based on a non-connectable environment to let as many tags as possible to be able to work together. In this reference design, we decided to use iBeacons since they are simple to implement with a reliable performance and they are able to run on iOS and Android. We are using channels 37, 38 and 39 for advertisement. Now let's describe the process between two nodes, which could be any type of device such as a band or a tag. The process is started by band 1 generating beacons with a non-TX power. Band 2 scans and detects these beacons, checks for the RSSI and stores the device ID and the time in flash. At the same time, it also advertises generating beacons, which in turn band 1 detects, checks for the RSSI as well and stores both the ID and the timestamp in flash. Now let's talk about the factors affecting the RSSI value of the signal. One of these factors is the rotation, since it produces a tilting in the antenna. In order to have an idea of how this rotation affects the RSSI value of the signal, we tested 500 samples under these conditions. As a result, we got a 2-3 dBm difference in average. The RSSI value is also affected by the position of the transmitter node or tag, in this case node B, with respect to the antenna on the receiver, in this case node A. To have a better understanding of how the positioning is affecting the RSSI value of the signal, with respect to a fixed node, we tested 500 samples under these conditions. As a result of this test, we got a similar result than the previous one. We saw, in average, a 2-3 dBm difference between the values. In regards to the power consumption, we took the following considerations. Nodes will be in sleep mode for 12 hours. We consider this as night mode. For the remaining time, the nodes will go into sleep mode for 1 second if no beacon is received for 2 seconds. With this assumption, we can say that 33% of the devices will be in sleep mode, that is, 4 hours. And 66% of the time, the devices will be in active mode, that is, 8 hours. Having the above in mind in a day, the device will be in active phase for 8 hours. With these numbers, we get up to 18 days of battery life with a battery of 250 mAh capacity, which are really good results for this type of applications. Apart from the power consumption, another key consideration for this type of applications is that they need to be low cost. Having this in mind, we have designed the BlueTile to be a really low cost, complete sensor node reference design in a 2-layer PCB, bringing from 30% to 40% of cost savings. Regarding certifications, customers can use it as a guide for their chip-down design, as it is also a fully certified board. In regards to successive stories of social distancing applications, we have customers that are already designing around our BlueEnergy-2 SoC and modules, which are part of our 10-year longevity commitment program, using our Social Distancing SDK. Among the products that are already available in the market, we have the Nextant tag, which comes in a waterproof wristband and pendant version. It is based on our BlueEnergy-2 SA module and it uses our Social Distancing SDK. It is also capable of achieving 30 cm of accuracy. Now let's talk about the takeaways from this webinar. We can say that SC offers a wide portfolio of ultra-low-power Bluetooth LE devices, covering from the basic to the highly demanding and complex applications. We also have a fully certified Bluetooth LE module offering, which brings cost savings to our customers and helps them speed up their time to market. In regards to social distancing applications, SC offers a complete solution from the software to the hardware to help our customers in their design and speed up their time to market. We also offer a fully documented reference design based on our certified and low-cost BlueTile sensor node EVAL board that customers can use as a guide for their applications.
