Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship Set for June 2-4
DALLAS – The Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship, one of the most prestigious junior championships in the state, is set for June 2-4 at Lakewood Country Club in Dallas. Due to recent executive orders from Texas Governor Greg Abbott regarding public health and COVID-19, the Legends Junior Tour is confident and committed to hosting a safe tournament for all players, spectators, volunteers, staff and the general public.
"The Legends Junior Tour is working to ensure the safety of our players, spectators, volunteers and staff members while still maintaining the competitiveness and prestige that the Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship has to offer," LJT Tournament Director Kevin Porter said. "This will be one of the strongest tournament fields we've had in recent years."
This year's Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship will be the first competitive golf tournament managed by the LJT since early March. The LJT staff has implemented new guidelines to ensure the health and safety of everyone involved with the championship. This year's new guidelines include but are not limited to the following:
Caddies will NOT be permitted for the 2020 Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship.
Spectators will be permitted on site for the 2020 Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship.
Spectators will be required to follow social distancing guidelines outlined by the Legends Junior Tour.
The Clubhouse at Lakewood Country Club will be OFF LIMITS to all players and spectators.
Tee Times for all three rounds will be off the No. 1 tee and times will be spaced in 12-minute intervals.
Players will be allowed to arrive no earlier than one hour before their tee time to begin using the practice facilities.
Practice areas will be monitored and players will be required to follow social distancing guidelines.
"Spreading out the tee times allows us to space players and spectators throughout the day around the course," Porter said. "Fortunately, golf is played in an expansive space and allows for minimal contact between players and staff."
Veritex Community Bank, one of the leading financial institutions in Texas, is the title sponsor for the second consecutive year. Longtime Lakewood Country Club member and Veritex Bank CEO/President Malcolm Holland was a part of a small group that created the Byron Nelson Junior Championship in 1999. Veritex Bank is excited to be a part of this monumental tournament as competitive golf in Texas resumes in the safest way possible.
"Veritex Bank is honored to be associated with such a prestigious junior championship and getting back to competitive golf," Holland said. "As a leader in Texas banking, we want to be a leader in getting our state back to a new normal. We are committed to serving the game, promoting junior golf and hosting a safe championship for everyone involved."
Lakewood CC will host the championship for the 13th time since the LJT took over the event in 2006. Lakewood opened in 1912, and the golf course was designed by Scotsman, Tom Bendelow, whose prolific career included more than 400 golf courses. Texan Ralph Plummer redesigned the layout in 1947, offering subtleties and mysteries from tee to green that take time to master. The team of Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore completed a facelift of Lakewood in 1995 and then again in 2014. The par-71 layout features bermuda fairways and bentgrass greens throughout the 6,750-yard course.
"I'm grateful to the Lakewood leadership for agreeing to host it," Lakewood CC Director of Golf Gilbert Freeman said. "We have a commitment to the Legends Junior Tour and to golf to hold the event. There will be a lot of restrictions that will be new to us all, but we are committed to working with the Legends Junior Tour to keep the players and spectators safe."
Over the years, the Veritex Bank Byron Nelson Junior Championship has crowned many worthy champions. Jordan Spieth was a three-time winner from 2008-10, which included setting the Lakewood course record in 2009 with a 9-under 62. Fellow University of Texas alums, Cody Gribble and Charlie Holland are also past champions of this event. Chandler Phillips won the event in 2014 and would go on to become the career tournament win leader for Texas A&M University.
Along with those players, fellow past champions include Ryan Baca (2000-01), Alex Moon (2006), Eric Durbin (2005), Vincent Martino (2011), Ryan Grider (2015), Justin Fraley (2002), Levi Valadez (2016), Luke Dossey (2017), Pierceson Coody (2018) and 2019 champion Gaven Lane.
Lane won last year after getting to 5-under 208 overall and two strokes ahead of the field. The Argyle-native made 16 birdies in three rounds, including eight in the first round, when he shot 4-under 67. Lane, a 2023 Oklahoma State University commit, etched his name on the trophy and will look to defend his title this summer.
The 84-player field will play 54 holes of stroke play competition. After 36 holes, the field is cut to the low 30 players and ties for the final round. The tournament is World Amateur Golf, Golfweek and Junior Golf Scoreboard ranked. Numerous AJGA performance stars will be handed out to the top finishers, including "Fully Exempt" status.

How well placed is The James Street Pre-School to promote positive learning outcomes for children?
The James Street Pre-School is very well placed to promote positive outcomes for children.
The James Street Pre-School is family-owned centre located in Redcliffs, Christchurch. It provides full-day education and care for up to 54 children, including 12 under two years of age. The centre provides daily meals to children and has achieved the Healthy Heart Gold level award.
The centre is governed and managed by two owners, one of whom is a qualified early childhood teacher. They are supported by a centre manager who oversees the day-to-day operation. Most teachers are qualified and registered. The owners support other staff to become early childhood teachers.
Since the 2015 ERO review, the owners and teachers have made good progress in meeting the recommendations of that report. They have strengthened assessment, planning and evaluation processes and teachers' knowledge of culturally inclusive teaching. Internal evaluation is implemented well and guides decision-making.
The centre is a member of Aupaki Kāhui Ako Community of Learning (CoL).
Children are given very good support to be capable, confident and self-directed learners. They play cooperatively and purposefully in a calm and unhurried environment. Children enjoy a wide variety of activities, especially in the spacious outdoor areas, where they have choice about their play. Teachers acknowledge children's abilities and interests. These provide the basis for decisions about the curriculum and the programme. Leaders and teachers work closely with parents and outside agencies to support children with additional learning needs.
Children under two years old are very well supported to settle into the centre and have space and time to lead their learning through play. Resources are easily available to the children. Mixed-age groupings are used to encourage older children to engage with younger ones and enjoy tuakana-teina relationships. This is helping to strengthen children's relationships and build confidence to learn and relate to others.
The centre's philosophy provides clear direction for leaders and teachers. There is an emphasis on providing a welcoming, stimulating and safe learning environment. The learning priorities and aspirations for children to be creative, courageous, respectful and joyful are clearly identified. Conservation and sustainable practices are fostered and taught through science inquiries. Learning programmes are clearly guided by Te Whāriki, the NZ Early Childhood Curriculum.
Learning is visible and accessible to children and parents through informative portfolios, journeys of discoveries, wall displays and a range of digital information. Teachers communicate with families about their child's learning and progress and make meaningful connections with children's home life and their community. These learning partnerships with parents support and contribute to the programme. Transitions into, within and from the centre are flexible, considered and well planned to meet children's and families' needs and preferences.
Māori and other children have many opportunities to see and learn about Māori culture. Teachers use te reo Māori and waiata with children and include some greetings and phrases as part of the programme. Leaders are proactive and acknowledge the need for ongoing development of teachers' confidence, knowledge and abilities in providing a strong and meaningful culturally responsive curriculum.
Centre leaders have high expectations for teaching and learning and are focused on positive outcomes for children. Effective leadership is promoting collaboration and cooperation within the teaching team. Professional growth is encouraged, to build teachers' knowledge and leadership capability.
Centre operations are guided by a comprehensive system of policies and procedures. Effective internal evaluation is well embedded. As a result, changes have been made to the environment and curriculum with a focus on improving learning outcomes for children. Continuous improvement is a focus for the centre leaders. New appraisal processes are supporting teachers and are linked to the centre's strategic direction.
the centre's appraisal process, to include observations of teaching practice and related feedback to teachers.
The next ERO review of The James Street Pre-School will be in four years.


Between the things we see and the things we fear there are doors that open to the reality of nightmares.

News Karnataka / Sports / Cricket / Mhambrey: It was a fabulous innings and got us really back into the game
Mhambrey: It was a fabulous innings and got us really back into the game
Cape Town: India bowling coach Paras Mhambrey praised wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant's unbeaten hundred in the second innings, saying it got the team back into the match. Pant's unbeaten hundred helped India set a 212-run target for South Africa after the tourists' were bowled out for 198 in the second innings.
"It was a fabulous inning and got us really back into the game. From a personal perspective, there is generally pressure on him. Obviously, in a couple of innings, he didn't get runs but getting runs at a crucial stage for the team, that's really important. He has set the game nicely for us. Really, really happy with the way he played and showed a lot of character as it wasn't an easy wicket to bat on," said Mhambrey in the post-day virtual press conference.
Mhambrey also hailed Pant's partnership of 94 with captain Virat Kohli and then batting alongside the tailenders. "At that stage, you wanted a partnership ideally and you had someone like Virat at the other end. You wanted to stitch a nice partnership which was going on and at that stage, sometimes as a batsman, you have to take a backseat as well and assess the conditions and say what is the right thing at that stage in a way to bat in terms of going ahead for the game."
"In that sense, he batted really well and wanted to stitch a partnership. Once we lost Virat, he had to take the leading role, which he did and stitched another partnership with the tail-enders as well. He batted really sensibly and given us a great opportunity to win a Test from here."
Mhambrey refused to delve much into India's anger over an lbw decision on Dean Elgar. Ravichandran Ashwin had Elgar trapped lbw but the South Africa skipper reviewed and ball-tracking showed that the ball would go over the stumps, surprising the Indian team with some reactions heard on the stump mic. "We saw it. You saw it. I think I will leave that to the match referee to have a look at it. There is nothing else I can do and comment on. We have seen it all, just want to move on with the game."
"Every individual out here is trying his best. Sometimes, in moments like this, people do say certain things but there's nothing that I feel. It's a game and it will be fair if we move on and take it further. It just happens as everyone is trying their best. Emotions do come in play sometimes. Let's sit back and how we can go about tomorrow."
The 49-year-old felt India's bowling plan on day four will be to bowl in the right areas and pick wickets as the pitch still has something to offer for the pacers. "It's not an easy wicket. I think there is some little awkward bounce on a patch kind of which has been created. But it's not going to be an easy wicket and even today in the later stages, a couple of balls did kick up, hit the gloves, chest and so, it will not be an easy wicket to bat on tomorrow morning as well. For us, it will be very simple: keep it in the right areas and be patient about it."
Mhambrey signed off by saying that picking Elgar's wicket on the stroke of stumps was crucial for India in pressing for a win. "It was important that we picked up a wicket, I think of Dean. They did score well. At one stage, I thought it was getting tight. But thankfully, we finished the day with a wicket and that's what we wanted. At times, you want that kind of breakthrough."

Vaccination consent with e-signature - simple, safe and efficient
The Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians of Thuringia uses StepOver's signature pads in 4 large-scale coronavirus vaccination centres and all 29 regional vaccination sites to electronically sign information sheets, medical history forms and vaccination consent forms. Thuringia actively chose electronic signatures for several reasons:
Thuringia vaccinates up to 27,000 residents per day. Each vaccinated person must sign 5 pages before each vaccination. With 2.1 million inhabitants, this would result in a paper volume of over 20 million pages of paper.
Health data requires special protection under German law and must be archived securely for 10 years. With over 2 million possible recipients, this requires a huge paper archive that must be maintained.
The entire process, from filling in the patient data to verifying the vaccine and creating the digital vaccination certificate, is now done digitally, without time-consuming media breaks. Previously, electronic processing was only possible after the documents had been scanned, a process that is prone to many errors. The electronic digital signature solves this problem efficiently.
It is possible to receive the first vaccination at the central vaccination centre and the second at a local regional vaccination centre without having to collect health data more than once.
Significant improvements for mobile teams that go to recipients and can obtain consent so electronically in the future. The areas of application for the mobile units are retirement and nursing homes, small and medium-sized companies without a company doctor, and schools when a vaccine is approved for adolescents and children.
The StepOver signature pad is seamlessly integrated into a web application that is specifically tailored to the healthcare industry. This means that only minimal technical effort is required on site to enable the secure transfer of signature data.
The medical history form is filled out online by the recipient and the data is stored in a QR code, which is read during registration at the vaccination centre and transferred to the vaccination software. The verification of the health data and the consultation take place on site, where the consent is first signed electronically by the recipient and then by the doctor.
Built to withstand wear and tear - the signature pad duraSign Pad Brilliance is designed to handle large signature volumes, equipped with chemically hardened glass and active pen. The housing and pen can be easily and frequently disinfected to prevent the transmission of bacteria and viruses. The recipient and doctor use two different pens on the same signature pad to prevent cross-contamination.
The signature pad supports an ergonomic writing position, with the option for left-handed users to rotate the screen 180°. In addition, the validity of the signature and the authenticity of the signed document can be checked at any time using the PDF/A standard and 4096-bit RSA encryption.
If you want to use electronic signatures for your health-related processes, either with signature pads or via Android or iOS tablets, contact us for a free, no-obligation consultation.

100-hour workweeks and a bit of luck: How a 25-year-old CEO raised $50 million for his new drug discovery startup
Andrew Dunn and Sarah Braner
Charm Therapeutics CEO Laksh Aithani.
Charm Therapeutics
Laksh Aithani is the 25-year-old CEO of Charm Therapeutics, an AI-based biotech startup.
In June, Charm said it raised $50 million, valuing the firm at $100 million to $150 million.
Aithani talked to Insider about how he built Charm as a first-time CEO.
After closing his first major fundraising round, Laksh Aithani's idea of celebrating was returning to work.
Now 25, the first-time CEO has built one of the hottest startups in biotech in less than a year. Charm Therapeutics in London is developing a technology based on artificial intelligence to discover drugs. Aithani, an energetic entrepreneur, has already grown his company to 27 employees and raised a $37 million round co-led by OrbiMed and F-Prime Capital — two of biotech's top venture-capital firms.
That's just the beginning, as Aithani is routinely putting in 100-hour workweeks, with the goal of building the next drug-industry giant. But the early funding success isn't enough for him to get excited about.
"When we have an approved drug, or perhaps a drug that enters the clinic, I will celebrate," he said in an August interview.
AI-focused drug discovery has exploded over the past few years, as more than 40 startups have been announced since 2014, Morgan Stanley analysts wrote in a June 27 research note. These companies are using machine learning to hunt for new medicines, hoping to make drug research and development faster with better chances of success. These firms have the potential to change the drug industry in a similar way to how Tesla has upended the car industry, Aithani said.
"If you look at what Tesla did to the car industry, I don't think that has happened yet in the pharma industry," Aithani said, emphasizing Tesla's embrace of AI and automation. "If we can even try to do a bit of that, that could be hugely impactful for patients."
In the June research note, Morgan Stanley estimated a $50 billion-plus market for AI-based drug discovery. A 2% bump in the success rate of early research — which stands today at roughly 10% for bringing a drug from the lab bench through approval — could yield 50 more drugs over the next decade, the analysts added.
Insider spoke with Aithani about how he'd carved out his career path through a mix of 100-hour workweeks and an element of luck, as well as how he envisioned Charm disrupting the drug industry.
After launching an AI startup in college, Aithani worked at Exscientia
Aithani's fascination with biology took off at the University of Cambridge, where he got a Bachelor of Arts in natural sciences as an undergraduate. In his third year at Cambridge, he began learning how to code and founded a company called Genei, which uses AI to summarize research papers. Genei, which is still operational, was run by four people and secured an undisclosed amount of funding from Y Combinator last year, according to PitchBook.
After graduating from Cambridge in 2019, Aithani interned at Exscientia, an Oxford biotech that uses AI for drug discovery.
While he was working at Exscientia in late 2020, an algorithm developed by the Google-owned company DeepMind cracked one of the thorniest problems in biology: predicting the shape of proteins. Proteins play a key role in many bodily functions and can take many forms. For decades, human modelers have tried and failed to find consistent ways to predict their structures and the process known as protein folding. DeepMind created an AI network called AlphaFold that predicted proteins' form faster and more efficiently than humans ever could.
"This will change medicine. It will change research. It will change bioengineering. It will change everything," Andrei Lupas, a biologist at the Max Planck Institute for Developmental Biology, told Nature at the time.
Similarly, Aithani was blown away by AlphaFold's potential. Many drugs are designed to affect or block certain proteins that cause disease. AlphaFold allowed researchers to better understand proteins, which could speed up the development of drugs.
"With protein folding, this is something that a human simply could not do and no other algorithm could do," Aithani said. "It just completely changed the game, and so I thought this could be revolutionary for drug discovery and for small-molecule drug discovery."
Charm has raised $50 million from top investors

Shortly after DeepMind's announcement, Aithani left Exscientia to work as an entrepreneur in residence at a London venture-capital firm called Braavos, where he started creating what would become Charm.
Aithani readily acknowledged his privilege allowed him to take this early career risk. His parents — his mother is a Microsoft lawyer, and his father is a retired engineer — gave him the reassurance that he could go back to living at his parents' house in Oxford if things didn't pan out. With that support, Aithani took the leap and started working in May 2021 on a prototype of his technology that worked like AlphaFold's.
The prototype, called DragonFold, is now Charm's key technology. He effectively reverse engineered AlphaFold's approach without using any code from DeepMind. Aithani's version went a step further by predicting how proteins bind with drug candidates. The technology allowed work typically done at a lab bench to be done at scale, evaluating billions of molecules in a matter of weeks.
Aithani's startup is one of many scrambling to extend AlphaFold's work. Some startups, like Cyrus Biotechnology, Outpace Bio, and Arzeda, are working together on a version called OpenFold. Some bigger AI-based biotechs, like Schrödinger, are also using AlphaFold alongside their technology to design drugs.
Charm was incorporated in September with Aithani as its 23-year-old CEO. About the same time, Aithani sent a cold email to David Baker, an AI pioneer at the University of Washington. He hoped Baker would consider joining Charm's scientific advisory board. Instead, Baker was impressed enough to become a cofounder, giving Charm an instant boost of credibility.
Even at that early stage, Charm was a hot target for venture capitalists. Ali Behbahani, a general partner at the investing firm NEA, told Insider in July he tried to get in on an early round but got beaten out.
Aithani said he learned that fundraising was a delicate balance. It's important not to push investors to commit too fast, but he said he valued creating the fear of missing out, or FOMO.
"People always talk about this concept or notion of creating FOMO amongst investors, and that if you want to close your deal quickly, and if you don't want it to drag out, and also if you want to get better terms, then this is something that you need to do," Aithani said.
In the spring, Aithani raised the $37 million million round that was announced in June, with investors like Khosla Ventures and General Catalyst joining OrbiMed and F-Prime Capital. The raise values Charm at between $100 million and $150 million, Aithani said, and brings the company's total funding to $50 million. The company previously raised $13 million in October 2021.
'The tides work against' young founders in biotech, Aithani says
Young founders like Aithani are growing more common in biotech but still a rare sight. Unlike tech startups, which often use a seed round to launch a product and generate revenue, biotech companies typically require years of research and hundreds of millions of dollars to test a drug candidate before the possibility of generating any cash. That process is extraordinarily high risk, with the vast majority of drug candidates failing to get Food and Drug Administration approval.
Those stakes make it more difficult for young founders, Aithani said.
"If you're super young with no experience, which is basically what I am, then you have to think of what you have," Aithani said. "The tides work against you. One way to make up for it is to show determination."
He did that by committing fully, estimating he typically worked about 100 hours or more each week. He spends his early mornings, nights, and weekends coding newer, improved versions of DragonFold, taking on CEO duties like hiring and fundraising during workdays.
"If other people find rest as a key component in their success, then I'm completely on board with that," Aithani said. "But for me, if you're going to try to build the next AstraZeneca, you need to go all in."
Aithani also hired people who had the experience he lacked. Gary Glick, an industry veteran, serves as Charm's executive chair. Aithani met him in New York in December. Charm's head of drug discovery, Sarah Skerratt, brings more than two decades of experience from Pfizer, Vertex, and Merck. Its head of structural sciences, Andrew Doré, has spent over a decade in biotech. Charm will keep growing, with Aithani estimating the small startup will reach 40 people by year's end and 50 to 60 employees by the end of 2023.
He's already mapping out an ambitious timeline for Charm's next steps. The startup is homing in on two drug candidates to treat cancer, though the company has yet to disclose specific targets. Aithani said he hoped to apply to start Charm's first clinical trials by 2025.
If all goes well — a big qualifier in drug R&D — Aithani estimates Charm can secure its first drug approval in 2028, which is right around when Aithani will turn 30 years old.
This article was corrected on August 19 to show that Charm has raised two rounds of funding totaling $50 million.

These snakes, which hail from Northern Africa and the Middle East, could be the reason the devil is often depicted with horns. The serpents' horns, which are modified scales, are retractable, allowing the snakes to burrow easily. Scientists aren't sure of the purpose of the horns, but they may help prevent the buildup of sand around the eyes.


Pink Lady® have worked with the London Marathon for many years and we have been excitedly gearing up for the big day on Sunday 23rd April. We recently teamed up with Veggie Runners, who are no strangers to long-distance running. During their training session with two of our runners, Maxime and Phil, who will be completing the distance dressed as Pink Lady® apples, The Veggie Runners shared some helpful race day tips.
So whether you're running the marathon later this week, or want to build upon your experience of racing at medium or long distance, here are our top tips for race day.
• Pre-race carb-loading: start 2 or 3 days before the race. Most runners will be planning to eat plenty of carbs the night before the race, however it's important to prepare yourself prior to this too. Think about your body's "energy tank" – you'll need to start filling it up 2 to 3 days before the race itself. In the days before the marathon, have low GI carbohydrates with every meal to get your body prepared. Things like pasta, porridge and rice are ideal.
• If you don't think "I'm running too slowly" in the first few miles, you're definitely going too fast. It's hard not to get swept up in the excitement and enthusiasm when you first set off. With so many runners around you, it's important to be conscious of getting swept along by everyone around you, and darting off the start line too fast. Pace yourself; make an effort to slow yourself down in the first couple of miles. If you over-do it and go too fast at the beginning of the course, it'll be really hard to re-gain all that expended energy when you really need it later on in the race.
• Try to keep everything the same for race day. The psychological side of training is almost as important as the physical, so try and keep consistency. If you've been running with music during your training runs, use the same playlist on race day. If you've been using energy gels or particular energy drinks, stick to those for the marathon itself. If you change one element it could knock you off your stride, so try and keep as much the same as you can.
• If you feel hungry, it's too late. When running such a long distance, it's important to keep your energy levels up to avoid your body's "energy tank" getting empty. Once your body sends the signals of hunger to your brain, it's too late. Start taking energy on board one hour into the race, then every 20 minutes subsequently. Whether you're using sports gels, isotonic drinks or gummy sweets, take them on regularly during the race to keep your energy levels up – it'll make a huge difference in the late stages of the race.
• Be mindful. Your brain's main energy source is glucose, so if your blood sugar is low, it can affect your mind-set as well as making your body feel tired or hungry. Being aware of this is key – if you're feeling grumpy, dejected or annoyed during the latter part of the race, this is just part of your body getting tired (and why it's important to keep taking on sugary drinks or gels to avoid it happening). It's very easy to get frustrated by other runners getting in your way, but try and be mindful and think positively. Remind yourself that you're all completing the same challenge, and encourage others as you would wish to be encouraged yourself.
• Recover with protein, water and resist the urge to stop moving. At the end of the race, it's normal to want to lie down on the ground and rest, and it's also common to not feel hungry. Try and fight both of these instincts! Lying down won't allow your muscles to cool down properly, which will leave you very achy the next day, so keep moving and stretching when you cross the finish line. Protein helps your muscles repair, so try to eat something when you finish – peanut butter spread on an apple is a great option. Hydration is also key after the race, so try and take on plenty of water for the remainder of the day.
We can't wait to watch our four runners Maxime, Andy, Jon and Phil cross the finish line, all in support of Action Against Hunger. Find out more about the charity and the work they do here. We wish everyone taking part on the day the best of luck, and hope that our top tips contribute to a happy and successful race!

On November 16 Adeline Records will release The Hours' first full-length US album, It's Not How You Start, It's How You Finish, to all digital outlets, with a deluxe edition exclusive to iTunes. The album sees The Hours put their own twist on Brit-pop with songs fueled by soaring choruses and powerful ballads. Produced and mixed by the band and renowned producer Flood (U2, Depeche Mode), the album features the band's iconic "Ali In The Jungle" – heard in Nike's 2010 Winter Olympic TV / web campaign "The Human Chain" and two new songs, "1000 Years" and "Born To Be". The Hours, one of the most dynamic and provocative rock ensembles on the London music scene today, got their start when singer-songwriter-guitarist Antony Genn (whose BritPop credentials include stints with Pulp and Elastica), and multi-instrumentalist Martin Slattery (whose resume includes playing with Shaun Ryder's Black Grape) formed The Mescaleros with then-former Clash-frontman Joe Strummer in 1999. The Mescaleros performed their first gig in Genn's hometown of Sheffield in June 1999 and Antony (who'd been all of 8 when London Calling first hit the record store racks) co-wrote and co-produced Rock Art and the X Ray Style, the highly-acclaimed album that marked Strummer's long-awaited return to music. The Hours' music has inspired contributions from a variety of high-profile artists. Damien Hirst, the controversial post-modern UK artist, threw his support behind the band and developed the representative clock-eyed skull logo used in The Hours' artwork and onstage set. An exclusive video for "See The Light", featuring actress Sienna Miller and directed by the legendary Tony Kaye (American History X), will be serviced to video and online outlets.

Point: Trump's war on junk science According to many news outlets, President Donald Trump has "declared a war on science." Yet judging from at least one recent decision, the opposite is true. Check out this story on courierpress.com: https://www.courierpress.com/story/opinion/2017/07/06/point-trumps-war-junk-science/103464386/
InsideSources.com Published 8:46 a.m. CT July 6, 2017
According to many news outlets, President Donald Trump has "declared a war on science." Yet judging from at least one recent decision, the opposite is true. The Trump administration is trying to prevent policies based on junk science.
A key example is the Trump administration's denial of an activist petition to ban agricultural uses of the pesticide chlorpyrifos, which farmers have safely used for decades. This decision makes sense when you consider the history.
Residential uses of chlorpyrifos, such as for bug spray, were phased out starting in the year 2000, but not because it was proven dangerous. Rather, chemical company Dow Agrosciences voluntarily phased out home uses because Environmental Protection Agency regulations proved too expensive and onerous, making the product unprofitable.
In 2007, the Pesticide Action Network (PANNA) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) petitioned the EPA to ban agricultural uses of this chemical. EPA began a safety review in 2009, which is required every 15 years, and indicated it would answer the petition as part of that review. But since such reviews take many years, activists sued for a quicker decision, and a court ordered EPA to make a final decision by March 2017.
At first, EPA appeared to be moving toward approval. But the agency suddenly shifted course in 2016, deciding to base its risk assessment on a single epidemiological study produced by Columbia University's Center for Children's Environmental Health (CCCEH).
EPA's reliance on this study proved problematic and unwarranted for multiple reasons, including an activist agenda among the researchers involved, weak findings and a seriously flawed study design.
Although it's housed at a university, CCCEH's website reveals that the organization is not simply interested in unbiased scientific research. The website explains that the group's goal involves "generating new findings" that can be used to remove chemicals from the marketplace. CCCEH brags about how its research had advanced regulation at various levels of government. And it also lists "partner organizations" on its website that include both PANNA and NRDC — the groups petitioning for the ban. To top it off, CCCEH is also funded in part by EPA, which then uses the research to push the agency's own regulatory agenda.
Perhaps CCCEH's activist slant would not be much of a concern if the study had a compelling finding, but instead it only reported a statistical association (a relationship between two or more variables). In the study, researchers measured women's exposures to chlorpyrifos during pregnancy and then tested their babies for developmental delays. Children born to women with relatively higher chlorpyrifos exposures scored lower than those born to mothers with the lower exposures.
At first blush, this might sound compelling, but statistical associations do not prove cause-and-effect relationships and sometimes happen by chance or because of researcher bias. Such results should be replicated before drawing conclusions, yet similar studies found no such associations.
But perhaps much more problematic are serious flaws in the study design. EPA's Science Advisory Panel (SAP) proved highly critical of the CCCEH study at a meeting in March 2016. The meeting report called EPA reliance on a single study "premature and possibly inappropriate."
In addition, panel members criticized the study design and methodologies, voicing concerns that a "large fraction" of the data was basically fabricated because exposure was too low to measure. At least one SAP member questioned the biological plausibility of health effects given the fact that human exposures are so minute, in the "low parts per trillion."
The CCCEH failed to make its data available and did not follow government research standards known as "good laboratory practices," which are designed to promote transparency and reproducibility that is necessary to validate scientific research. Nonetheless, EPA released a revised risk assessment in November 2016 that relied on the CCCEH research.
EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt rejected the petition on March 29, rightly repudiating the use of junk science to push unwarranted and counterproductive regulations. Not only was the EPA relying on junk science, the ban would undermine agricultural productivity and make food more expensive.
Farmers need chlorpyrifos to fight numerous crop-destroying insects that attack a wide range of fruits and vegetables including oranges, corn, nuts, grapes, sugar beets, alfalfa, wheat, soybeans and more. Few adequate alternatives exist to chlorpyrifos for many crops, so a ban would reduce yields and increase prices for nutritious fruits and vegetables, discouraging consumption of these healthy foods.
Pruitt's action sets an important pro-science precedent for the agency moving forward, which it is hoped will continue.

Conflict of Interest Policy and Annual Statement for Directors and Officers
(Adopted by a vote of the SEJ Board of Directors April 9, 2011)
This policy is based on the IRS model Conflict of Interest policy, which is an attachment to Form 1023. It adds information needed to allow SEJ to assess director independence in order to answer questions on Form 990.
Article II: Definitions
Article III: Procedures
Article IV: Records of Proceedings
Article V: Compensation
Article VI: Annual Statements
Article VII: Periodic Reviews
Article VIII: Use of Outside Experts
Article I – Purpose
1. The purpose of this Board conflict of interest policy is to protect SEJ's interests when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interests of an officer or director of SEJ or might result in a possible excess benefit transaction.
2. This policy is intended to supplement, but not replace, any applicable state and federal laws governing conflicts of interest applicable to nonprofit and charitable organizations.
Article II – Definitions
1. Interested person -- Any director, principal officer, or member of a committee with governing board delegated powers, who has a direct or indirect financial interest, as defined below, is an interested person.
2. Financial interest -- A person has a financial interest if the person has, directly or indirectly, through business, investment, or family:
a. An ownership or investment interest in any entity with which SEJ has a transaction or arrangement,
b. A compensation arrangement with SEJ or with any entity or individual with which SEJ has a transaction or arrangement, or
c. A potential ownership or investment interest in, or compensation arrangement with, any entity or individual with which SEJ is negotiating a transaction or arrangement.
Compensation includes direct and indirect remuneration as well as gifts or favors that are not insubstantial.
A financial interest is not necessarily a conflict of interest. A person who has a financial interest may have a conflict of interest only if the Board or Executive Committee decides that a conflict of interest exists, in accordance with this policy.
3. Independent Director -- A director shall be considered "independent" for the purposes of this policy if he or she is "independent" as defined in the instructions for the IRS 990 form or, until such definition is available, the director –
a. is not, and has not been for a period of at least three years, an employee of SEJ or any entity in which SEJ has a financial interest;
b. does not directly or indirectly have a significant business relationship with SEJ, which might
affect independence in decision-making;
c. is not employed as an executive of another corporation where any of SEJ's executive officers or employees serve on that corporation's compensation committee; and
d. does not have an immediate family member who is an executive officer or employee of SEJ or who holds a position that has a significant financial relationship with SEJ.
Article III – Procedures
1. Duty to Disclose -- In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the Board or Executive Committee.
2. Recusal of Self – Any director may recuse himself or herself at any time from involvement in any decision or discussion in which the director believes he or she has or may have a conflict of interest, without going through the process for determining whether a conflict of interest exists.
3. Determining Whether a Conflict of Interest Exists -- After disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, he/she shall leave the Board or Executive Committee meeting while the determination of a conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining Board or Executive Committee members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists.
4. Procedures for Addressing the Conflict of Interest
a. An interested person may make a presentation at the Board or Executive Committee meeting, but after the presentation, he/she shall leave the meeting during the discussion of, and the vote on, the transaction or arrangement involving the possible conflict of interest.
b. The Chairperson of the Board or Executive Committee shall, if appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement.
c. After exercising due diligence, the Board or Executive Committee shall determine whether SEJ can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest.
d. If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the Board or Executive Committee shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in SEJ's best interest, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. In conformity with the above determination, it shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction or arrangement.
5. Violations of the Conflicts of Interest Policy
a. If the Board or Executive Committee has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it shall inform the member of the basis for such belief and afford the member an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose.
b. If, after hearing the member's response and after making further investigation as warranted by the circumstances, the Board or Executive Committee determines the member has failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.
Article IV – Records of Proceedings
The minutes of the Board and all committees with board delegated powers shall contain:
a. The names of the persons who disclosed or otherwise were found to have a financial interest in connection with an actual or possible conflict of interest, the nature of the financial interest, any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present, and the Board's or Executive Committee's decision as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed.
b. The names of the persons who were present for discussions and votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussion, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement, and a record of any votes taken in connection with the proceedings.
Article V – Compensation
a. A voting member of the Board who receives compensation, directly or indirectly, from SEJ for services is precluded from voting on matters pertaining to that member's compensation.
b. A voting member of any committee whose jurisdiction includes compensation matters and who receives compensation, directly or indirectly, from SEJ for services is precluded from voting on matters pertaining to that member's compensation.
c. No voting member of the Board or any committee whose jurisdiction includes compensation matters and who receives compensation, directly or indirectly, from SEJ, either individually or collectively, is prohibited from providing information to any committee regarding compensation.
Article VI – Annual Statements
1. Each director, principal officer and member of a committee with Board delegated powers shall annually sign a statement which affirms such person:
a. Has received a copy of the conflict of interest policy,
b. Has read and understands the policy,
c. Has agreed to comply with the policy, and
d. Understands SEJ is charitable and in order to maintain its federal tax exemption it must engage primarily in activities which accomplish one or more of its tax-exempt purposes.
2. Each voting member of the Board shall annually sign a statement which declares whether such person is an independent director.
3. If at any time during the year, the information in the annual statement changes materially, the director shall disclose such changes and revise the annual disclosure form.
4. The Executive Committee shall regularly and consistently monitor and enforce compliance with this policy by reviewing annual statements and taking such other actions as are necessary for effective oversight.
Article VII – Periodic Reviews
To ensure SEJ operates in a manner consistent with charitable purposes and does not engage in activities that could jeopardize its tax-exempt status, periodic reviews shall be conducted. The periodic reviews shall, at a minimum, include the following subjects:
a. Whether compensation arrangements and benefits are reasonable, based on competent survey information (if reasonably available), and the result of arm's length bargaining.
b. Whether partnerships, joint ventures, and arrangements with management organizations, if any, conform to SEJ's written policies, are properly recorded, reflect reasonable investment or payments for goods and services, further charitable purposes and do not result in inurement or impermissible private benefit or in an excess benefit transaction.
Article VIII – Use of Outside Experts
When conducting the periodic reviews as provided for in Article VII, SEJ may, but need not, use outside advisors. If outside experts are used, their use shall not relieve the Board of its responsibility for ensuring periodic reviews are conducted.
The End Revision History: SEJ Board Initial Conflict of Interest policy adopted on this date: April 9, 2011.

Q: Weird behaviour with Laravel's routing I have two resources controller named 'livre-dor' (golden book in english) and menus, for a restaurant website. Both of them have the basic CRUD function with 'index', 'store', 'create', 'show', 'update', 'edit' and 'destroy'. Only, I decided to add an exception to the delete method because I find annoying the fact that I need to create a form just for a link.
So, for both the controllers, I did the following with the "destroy" action:
/**
 * Remove the specified resource from storage.
 *
 * @param  int  $id
 * @return \Illuminate\Http\Response
 */
public function destroy($id)
{
    $message = Goldenbook::find($id);
    $message->delete();
    session()->flash('message', 'Message supprimé');
    return redirect('livre-dor');
}

This is for the 'livre-dor', 'menus' litteraly has the same lines excepted for Goldenbook::find($id) that becomes Menu::find($id).
In my routing, I did the following :
Route::resource('livre-dor', 'GoldenbookController',['except' => ['destroy']]);
Route::get('/destroy/{id}', 'GoldenbookController@destroy')->name('livre-dor.destroy');
Route::resource('menus', 'MenusController', ['except' => ['destroy']]);
Route::get('/destroy/{id}', 'MenusController@destroy')->name('menus.destroy');

And in both my views, I did the following :
index.blade.php

        @foreach($messages as $message)

                    {{ $message->nom }}

                    {{ $message->message }}

                    id)}}">Supprimer

        @endforeach

So, this way, instead of going to 'livre-dor.destroy' via delete, we go via GET which is waaaay simplier (don't worry this will be protected later). When I first did the whole thing, everything worked until I got back to work on it two days later.
However, now, when I get to the 'livre-dor' index, I get the following: Route [livre-dor.destroy] not defined. (View: D:\PHPStormProject\nekoba\resources\views\livre-dor\index.blade.php), while 'menus' shows up smoothly. And when I run php artisan route:list, I can't find 'livre-dor.destroy' anywhere :

Also, when I did php artisan route:cache, it destroyed menus.destroy route and added mine. I can't find the logic behind all this.
Thank you in advance, ask if you need to see something else

A: Try writing custom destroy route before resource route, hopefully it would work.

A: Route::get('/destroy/{id}', 'GoldenbookController@destroy')->name('livre-dor.destroy');
Route::get('/destroy/{id}', 'MenusController@destroy')->name('menus.destroy');

You cant have the same URIs for 2 different route methods. Have them with different names, e.g.
Route::get('/livre-dor/destroy/{id}', 'GoldenbookController@destroy')->name('livre-dor.destroy');
Route::get('/menus/destroy/{id}', 'MenusController@destroy')->name('menus.destroy');

BBPS set to unleash major changes across payments ecosystem
After UPI's success, the Bharat Bill Payment System is the next big initiative from the National Payments Corp. of India. Istock
3 min read . Updated: 03 Jul 2018, 12:32 PM IST Venkatesh Hariharan
RBI has allowed five categories of billers in the BBPS ecosystem: water, direct-to-home, postpaid phones, gas and electricity
Digitally-savvy urban consumers have the easiest of payment experiences, but only a small percentage of bill payments happen digitally. In rural areas, bill payment remains a tedious chore.
Imagine a villager having to wait for a bus, and travelling for two hours to the nearest taluka office to pay an electricity bill of ₹ 50. The Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS) has been designed as a system that can address such issues. It functions as a central switch. Once a biller connects into BBPS, s/he can accept bill payments from any BBPS customer touch point. Thus, a bill payer from Shillong will be able to pay his utility bills, even if he is on tour in Maharashtra, by visiting a nearby BBPS centre and paying a nominal service fee.
After the success of the Unified Payments Interface, BBPS is the next big initiative from the National Payments Corporation of India)—an umbrella organization for payments in India, owned by Indian banks and regulated by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). With new payment banks, and many other organizations planning to join the BBPS network, the nearest bill payment centre may soon be your kirana store, your mobile recharge shop, or even your post office.
BBPS will unleash major changes across the ecosystem. For customers, the increased number of payment touch points, and the ability to pay a wide range of bills using any mode of payment, including cash, will usher in a new age of convenience. For billers, BBPS can bring down the cost of collections significantly. Even the largest of billers such as the electricity, water and gas utilities have a limited number of physical collection centres within their own geographies. It is estimated that the cost of bill collection at a physical point would be ₹ 100 per bill, while it would be lower if collected through a partner network. With BBPS, billers need not tie up individually with third parties for collection. Once they join the network, every collection unit affiliated to BBPS becomes their collection unit.
The universe of billers will also expand due to BBPS. Conceptually, anyone who has a bill that needs to be collected—including microfinance institutions, housing societies, schools and colleges, newspaper vendors, the milkman, and others—can become billers in the BBPS system. These are the segments where bill collection is the most inefficient. My newspaper vendor, for example, sends me his bill once every three months and that, too, after a couple of reminders. I have to chase my housing society to send me my quarterly maintenance bill since I do not live in the same property. By joining the BBPS network (as and when RBI opens up BBPS to these categories), such billers can ensure timely collections, while providing a convenient payment mode to customers like me.
For many billers, BBPS can help move bill collection from an expensive, high-touch process involving multiple follow-ups, into to a cost-effective, low-touch process. For banks and fintech firms, BBPS can help with greater customer engagement. For bank customers, the ability to pay a wide range of bills through the bank account is a strong incentive to ensure that their bank account is always funded and active. For mobile wallets and payments apps, bill payment is one of the best ways of ensuring regular usage by customers and making them familiar with their apps.
For organizations like banks that bring billers into BBPS, this is an opportunity to build a deep relationship. By providing a good BBPS biller service, such organizations can build revenues through transaction fees, providing current accounts and offering loans against future cash flows. For technology and service providers in the billing ecosystem, BBPS could expand the business opportunity as more billers and consumers enter this network.
Currently, RBI has allowed five categories of billers in the BBPS ecosystem: electricity, water, direct-to-home, gas and telecom (post-paid). Hopefully, more categories will be opened up soon.

TORONTO – MMAjunkie was on scene and reporting live from today's early and official UFC 206 fighter weigh-ins, where a trio of fighters – including a headliner – missed weight.
Two of the most talented fighters on the entire roster take aim at each other with UFC gold on the line at UFC 206 on Saturday. Max Holloway has quickly grown into not only one of the best strikers in the entire UFC, but one of the most well-rounded fighters, also. His opponent, also known for his proficiency in all facets of the game, is a former lightweight champion who is eager to hoist a title belt again.
New Camera Tech Brings Ref Camera Footage To Whole New Level — Watch This K.O.!
The fan perspective from normal camera angles provides a good view of the action during fights but the referee definitely has an up close perspective that brings a different element to game. The ref cam here is a good example of how close the ref is to the fighters while in the middle of a wild stoppage. Although this stoppage wasn't questionable, from where he standing there's no doubt that this fighter needed to be protected.
But ultimately, he wasn't able to control the bout the way Ortiz did, and that was reflected when it came time for the judges to render their decision. Two of the three gave the fight to Ortiz with scores of 29-28, with the lone dissenting judge seeing it 29-28 for Makovsky, making it a split-decision win for Ortiz.
Andrade has a strong claim to being the top contender for a shot at the UFC Women's Strawweight Championship after her TKO victory over Joanne Calderwood in September. Andrade is unbeaten since moving down to strawweight. In June, she made her strawweight debut and defeated former title challenger Jessica Penne by TKO.
After former WWE Superstar CM Punk finally made his debut this past Septemeber, at UFC 203, most fans and fighters were questioning whether Punk should be given another opportunity in the UFC. Punk signed with the promotion in 2014 having zero martial arts experience and only a background in the make believe world of the WWE. Most people thought Punk was going to get destroyed quickly and as it turned out they were correct. Roufusport's head coach Duke Roufus talked to MMAfighting's Ariel Helwani earlier this week about Punk's debut and where he goes next.
The Ultimate Fighting Championship could move forward in adding a women's featherweight division even without the presence of its potential centerpiece. UFC President Dana White recently told Fox Sports Australia that the Las Vegas-based promotion plans on adding a 145-pound weight class even if Cristiane Justino , the reigning Invicta featherweight queen, is not on board. During an interview on the UFC "Unfiltered" podcast, White claimed that Justino turned down two potential 145-pound title bouts in the early portion of 2017. "She was offered two fights at 145 pounds, she turned them both down," White said. "The first fight, she said she only had eight weeks and that wasn't enough time to make 145 pounds. And then she gave no reason for the second time. But the answer is yes. The answer is yes, we're going to make a 145-pound division, whether it's with Cyborg or not." Justino has competed twice in the Octagon at a 140-pound catch-weight, scoring technical knockout wins over Lina Lansberg and Leslie Smith . The Brazilian star endured grueling weight cuts on both occasions and told MMAFighting.
MMAjunkie is in the process of filing a public records request to obtain a copy of the settlements. It's not yet known whether their details will be disclosed during the meeting; in January, the NSAC quickly voted to settle Nick Diaz's third marijuana case without deliberation. Diaz later struck a payment arrangement with the commission for a $75,000 fine that will allow him to fight again.
UFC lightweight contender Lando Vannata had already proven how talented and tough he was when he debuted against top ranked Tony Ferguson on zero notice. So Vannata wasn't messing around when it came time for his return to action at UFC 206, this time with a full training camp under his belt.
TORONTO – MMAjunkie is on scene and reporting live from today's UFC 206 event at Air Canada Centre in Toronto, which kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET (3:30 p.m. PT). You can discuss the event here.
Just last week UFC middleweight Tim Kennedy launched a fighter association with GSP, TJ Dillashaw, Cain Velasquez and Donald Cerrone. This directly puts Kennedy at odds with some of the UFC's current business practices, and today he came face-to-face with Dana White for the first time.
With a camera man always by his side on big fight weeks, UFC President Dana White always has the best view in the house.
UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley doesn't seem to be too interested in rematch with Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson right now. Ever since UFC 205 Woodley has been in search of a big fight, like with fellow UFC champ Conor McGregor, and now the recently freed Nick Diaz.
UFC featherweight contenders Cub Swanson and Doo Ho Choi put on performances of a lifetime this past Saturday night at UFC 206. From round one to round three it was action packed with both fighters nearly getting finished on multiple occasions. However, it was in the third round that Swanson landed some of his hardest shots and had Choi in serious trouble.
Frank Mir's Young Daughter Can Split An Apple Just Like Sage — Watch!
On Wednesday, former UFC Heavyweight Champion Frank Mir posted a video on Facebook of his daughter tearing apart an apple with her bare hands.
When UFC Fight Night 102 'Lewis vs. Abdurakhimov' ( online betting ) opened with several lackluster bouts up in Albany, N.Y., Friday night, many were likely thinking when -- if at all -- the great fights and finishes would come. Thanks to a largely terrific main card and a strong finish to the prelims, several fighters earned well-deserved $50 thousand bonuses. Light heavyweight Gian Villante and Saparbek Safarov slugged it out for nearly two rounds, with each man on the verge of being stopped in the first. But an injured left leg prevented Safarov from gaining any real leverage on his shots and strikes as the fight dragged on, allowing Villante to capitalize. Finally, after another torrid exchange, Villante finished his foe off in the second in what was the "Fight of the Night." The Times Union Hall exploded in excitement for both Francis Ngannou and Gerald Meerschaert as two pocketed an additional $50K for "Performance of the Night." Ngannou subbed fellow heavyweight Anthony Hamilton with a slick kimura from knee-on-belly and middleweight Meerschaert forced Joe Gigliotti to tap out due to a textbook anaconda choke in the first.
The interim Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title will be up for grabs in the UFC 206 headliner on Saturday at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. Though it took an injury to the original main event and the invention of an unnecessary interim belt, the fight between Max Holloway and Anthony Pettis , two of the UFC's most exciting fighters, is deserving of the spotlight. Holloway, who turned 25 six days before the fight, is riding a division-record nine-fight winning streak. His last loss was against former featherweight king Conor McGregor in 2013. Since then, six of his nine wins have not needed the judges' stamp, even as he has faced increasingly higher-ranked competition. He was last in action in June, when he took a unanimous decision from onetime title challenger Ricardo Lamas . This will be Holloway's second fight of 2016, making it only the second time in his UFC career that he fought less than four times in a calendar year. On the other side of the cage will be Pettis, the former UFC and World Extreme Cagefighting lightweight champion.
"It's important for me. I feel like a lot of my fans hold high expectations of me when it comes to inside the Octagon — not so much outside of the Octagon — but I feel like most of my performances are pretty dominant so I don't feel like I have the luxury to not perform in an extremely impressive fashion," Jones said. "So I put pressure on myself and feel pressure from my fans to not only win, but to look great doing it.
UFC 206 staff picks: Is anyone picking Anthony Pettis to halt Max Holloway's momentum?
Also on the main card, Dooho Choi (14-1 MMA, 3-0 UFC) meets Cub Swanson (23-7 MMA, 8-3 UFC) in a featherweight bout. Choi will be trying to stay perfect in the UFC, and he's more than a 2-1 favorite. He also has seven of our 10 staff members picking him to get his hand raised.
The interim Ultimate Fighting Championship featherweight title hangs in the balance for one man, as Max Holloway faces Anthony Pettis in the UFC 206 main event on Saturday at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. Pettis failed to meet the 145-pound threshold for the match, meaning only Holloway can lay claim to the gold. Meanwhile, Donald Cerrone will take on Matt Brown in a welterweight co-headliner that promises spellbinding violence and much of it. The rest of the five-fight main card features a featherweight clash slotting Cub Swanson opposite Doo Ho Choi , a middleweight affair pitting Tim Kennedy against Kelvin Gastelum and a welterweight confrontation pairing Jordan Mein with Emil Weber Meek . Ahead of UFC 206 "Holloway vs. Pettis," members of the Sherdog.com staff swallowed their pride and put their reputations on the line with bold predictions: THE LINEUP 145: Max Holloway (16-3) vs. Anthony Pettis (19-5) 170: Donald Cerrone (31-7) vs. Matt Brown (20-15) 145: Cub Swanson (23-7) vs.
