Two ORNL facilities used to develop synthetic cell membranes.
If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Mother Nature may be blushing at researchers' efforts to emulate the molecular activity that occurs at cell membranes—the boundary between living cells and their environment. Utilizing the combined capabilities of the Spallation Neutron Source and the adjacent Center for Nanophase Materials Sciences, a team of scientists is building bio-inspired, biocompatible synthetic cell membranes to help them understand a range of interactions between synthetic materials and biomolecules.
"Our inspiration comes from Mother Nature," says researcher Brad Lokitz. "In the body and in nature, a number of biological processes occur at interfaces and membranes. We are trying to mimic nature in a very basic way to gain some insight into these processes."
In addition to Lokitz, the research effort includes John Ankner, Jamie Messman and Dean Myles of ORNL; Mike Kilbey and Jimmy Mays, who have joint appointments with ORNL and the University of Tennessee; and Juan Pablo Hinestrosa of Clemson University.
The team's bio-inspired membrane starts with a silicon base, to which polymers are attached more or less evenly across the silicon's surface. The polymer strands provide a framework, or scaffold, for the biomolecules and synthetic cell membrane that are added later.
"The design of the substrate is somewhat similar to a hairbrush," says Lokitz. "If you take a hairbrush and turn it over, the base of the brush would be the silicon substrate, and the bristles that extend out would be the polymer."
While the researchers needed several attempts before identifying a process that resulted in a polymer framework with a uniform thickness evenly distributed across the surface, the results were worth the effort. Lokitz says that in order to use neutrons to study the framework, the process had to be very uniform on the molecular level. "The rougher the surface, the less information can be extracted, so the surfaces must be as molecularly smooth as possible. Considerable time was required before we could consistently produce samples that were sufficiently smooth to take to the SNS and obtain good results."
Having recently perfected the process of creating the substrate and attaching the biomolecules, the team has begun experimenting with attaching a synthetic cell membrane to the substrate. "The membrane was created by team members working at the nanoscience center," says project leader John Ankner. "We developed a synthetic membrane composed of biocompatible synthetic polymers that has some of the physical and chemical properties of a cell membrane." Because the substrate is fairly soft, the attached synthetic cell membrane will be more flexible and more elastic than if attached to a hard surface. Also, by attaching biomolecules to the substrate before applying the membrane, Ankner's team can populate the membrane with structures, such as proteins, that are found in real cell membranes.
Proteins are a particular focus of the team's research because they play key roles in a variety of cellular functions, such as immune response, the operation of ion channels and reaction to toxins. By embedding biomolecules within the membrane, the researchers hope to be able to study the structure-function relationships of the various biomolecules—proteins, peptides, cholesterol—that form the cell's environment.
The team is using the SNS's Liquids Reflectometer to study each phase of this bio-inspired structure, including the polymer scaffold, the attached biomolecules and the synthetic cell membrane. One feature of the reflectometer is its ability to investigate the boundaries between hard and soft matter, an ideal capability for examining the bio-inspired surfaces with which Lokitz and his colleagues are working.
Lokitz notes that having the world's most powerful pulsed neutron source next door to one of America's most modern nanocenters provides a rare opportunity to perform synergistic nanoscience research at co-located, state-of-the-art facilities. "We have the ability to create our samples at the nanocenter, walk next door, and test them at a world-class facility. As we run our tests, the feedback is immediate. If we see that we need to do something differently, we can walk down the hall to the nanocenter, tweak our procedure, and then go back to the SNS and continue the testing."
Once a satisfactory scaffold is in place, researchers "functionalize" the process by starting a chemical reaction that allows the biomolecules to bind to the polymers. Researchers then examine the scaffold to understand three things: how the attached biomolecules affect the structure and organization of the polymer scaffold, how being attached to the scaffold affects the stability and structure of the biomolecules and whether the biomolecules can still perform their biological functions when attached to the scaffold.
The Liquids Reflectometer can characterize the thickness, density and orientation of polymers. The instrument is very sensitive to small changes in density or thickness, thus providing researchers with an opportunity to study minute variations in the scaffold, the attached biomolecules or the synthetic cell membrane. "The researcher can observe the surface with just the polymer attached and get an idea of the layer thickness and composition," Lokitz says. He adds that when the team functionalizes the layer by attaching the biomolecules, the instrument is sensitive enough to notice even minute changes.
Anker says the team has reached the point at which they can attempt to attach a synthetic cell membrane to the polymer scaffold. "We are taking the first steps in this process. The membrane analogues represent the holy grail in the neutron reflectivity business."
Ankner concedes that the process of attaching the membrane has proven to be tricky. "We're taking a small three-dimensional cell membrane and attempting to spread it out on a flat surface the size of a hockey puck. This goal has been pursued unsuccessfully in a variety of ways. This is our attempt. Our efforts are promising, so we are pushing ahead."
The near-term goal for the team is to assemble a synthetic cell membrane around various biomolecules that have already been attached to the substrate—thus avoiding the chemically problematic issue of inserting biomolecules into the membrane after it has been created.
"In a real cell," Ankner explains, "when proteins or peptides are created, the cellular components that create them inject them directly into the cell membrane one amino acid at a time. The proteins fold and form under the influence of this unique environment."
This process can't easily be duplicated in a laboratory, so researchers typically are forced to find chemical approaches to embedding biomolecules into synthetic membranes—with less than satisfactory results.
"If we can attach them to the substrate and then assemble the membrane around them," Ankner says, "we avoid that whole problem. That's our ambition."
Understanding how cell membranes and other functional areas of cells work may enable researchers to develop bioinspired systems that apply biological processes to specific tasks in materials and chemical sciences. Lokitz notes that "these functional areas are able to sense and respond to external stimuli; capture, store and convert energy; carry out chemical reactions; and transport a wide range of chemicals."
The ability to engineer and control these cellular features would open up a wide range of possibilities for developing next-generation materials, devices and processes, such as therapeutic agents, drug delivery systems and new methods of diagnosing disease.

Building networks for young researchers in the microuniversities in the WestNordic area could be an important focus for the future activities of Nordic Summer University (NSU). We are hoping to attract participants from this region for some of the existing study circles for the Summer Session 2016 in Finland. Our aim in the future is to invite a new study circle proposal to NSU that is focusing on the WestNordic issues. In order to do that we can’t possibly know what the topic of the circle should be, so we would need to meet the right people and formulate the proposal together with the local academics from the microuniversities. This work requires personal contacts and dialogues.

Even when he was running for president, Lincoln Chafee did not go so far as to predict he would end up in the White House. “I’m running to give the people a choice—that’s my goal,” he said, when I asked him to make such a forecast. “Let them decide.” It was a crisp, sunny September day in New Hampshire, and Chafee, whose ruddy head is topped by a mushroomlike cap of gray-blond hair, was standing in a grove of trees, having finished his speech to a group of Democrats gathered in a local activist’s backyard.
Chafee dropped out of the race Friday, having apparently realized what was always clear to just about everyone else: that his candidacy was an exercise in pointlessness. A few weeks ago, I joined him in New Hampshire in an attempt to figure out what, exactly, he thought he was doing—but the mystery only deepened.
I had sought out Chafee because he seemed to epitomize a field of presidential candidates notable for its sheer profusion: Combining Democrats and Republicans, it stood, at its peak, at 22 major entrants. (With Chafee’s exit, there are now only—only!—18.) Most clown cars, the metaphor pundits tend to reach for to describe this crowd, couldn’t hold this many bozos. It is the largest field for 100 years. Never before have so many—with so little chance of success—sought America’s sanction to lead the country into the future.
Chafee, I hoped, might help answer the question naturally raised by the candidate glut: What are all these people thinking? From the beginning, he was among the most perplexing of the long-shotters. His announcement speech—delivered in June in an auditorium in suburban Washington, the empty back half of which had been curtained off—was noted mainly for his contention that the U.S. ought to convert to the metric system. It wasn’t even big news in his home state: The Providence Journal didn’t deign to send a reporter, instead running a wire report inside the paper. Ted Nesi, an analyst for the local CBS station, characterized locals’ reaction as “a mix of shock, bewilderment, amusement and outright hostility.”
Chafee, despite being a former senator and governor of Rhode Island, had no apparent rationale for his candidacy. Over the summer, Conan O’Brien decided to champion him as the ultimate underdog, and enlisted Ted Leo and Aimee Mann to write him a theme song, to the tune of “She Drives Me Crazy.” One couplet: “He’s only got 12 Facebook friends; he looks like Chris Matthews on a juice cleanse.” In last week’s Democratic debate, Chafee described himself as “a block of granite” and tried to explain away a distasteful vote by noting he was new to the Senate at the time; afterward, CNN’s Wolf Blitzer told him, “You’re going to wind up looking silly if you keep going on like this.” In polls, Chafee routinely received not a single respondent’s support. Contenders with no obvious base are sometimes termed “vanity candidates,” but surely vanity has few antidotes more potent than repeatedly being told nobody likes you.
That day in New Hampshire, I wasn’t the only one trying to get my head around what Chafee thought he was up to. His speech had been a rather low-key recitation of his long political resume (“I haven’t had any scandals, believe it or not!”), and afterward, he opened the floor to questions. For a tense moment, it seemed like there might not be any. But then a white-haired man in a green fleece vest raised his hand. “I’m not saying this to be derogatory,” he began. But when Chafee appeared on Real Time With Bill Maher, he had seemed “very quiet and sheepish,” the man continued. “Polls being what they are, why are you persisting with your candidacy at this time?” he asked.
Chafee chuckled awkwardly and said he appreciated the “good, tough question.” He chalked his disposition up to his background: After finishing a classics degree at Brown, a young Chafee moved to Bozeman, Montana, where he learned to shoe horses; he went on to work as a farrier at racetracks in the U.S. and Canada. “When you’re around horses, you tend to be a quieter person,” he said, somewhat apologetically. But he said he put little stock in the polls: “People start to focus as you get closer” to the vote, he said. “I’ll put my resume up against any candidate,” he added.
Observing and interacting with Chafee, I tried out a number of theories to explain his quest. Was he a narcissist? This did not appear to be the case; he has a mild and self-effacing demeanor. Nor was he clearly a people person—while other candidates and their representatives at the event worked the room shaking hands, Chafee hovered, solitary, on the sidelines when it wasn’t his turn to speak. When raffle winners were announced and it turned out he was standing next to the prize table, he quickly got out of the way. Later, he sat down at the table to flip through one of the prizes, a book about the Kennedys. Nobody bothered him.
No-hope candidates are sometimes said to want attention. But when you’re one of 22 and on the back end of the polls, attention is hard to come by. Nor does a flashy book deal or television gig seem likely to result from a candidacy nobody noticed. Perhaps Chafee felt this was his birthright—his father was a senator before him, and his great-great-grandfather was a Rhode Island governor. But he told me he had chanced into the family business. Did he just not have anything better to do? If he weren’t running, he said, he might have resumed the international studies fellowship at Brown he held from 2007 to 2009, after he lost reelection as a Republican senator, before being elected governor as an independent. “I loved that,” he said. “I’ve always worked.”
Chafee’s own theory for the profusion of candidates was that the Republicans were motivated by a strong, and partly “racial,” hatred of President Obama, while the Democratic field, at 5, was “normal” in size. As for himself, he said he was motivated by international events. “We’ve made a lot of mistakes since September 11,” he said. “We need to fix them. It’s alarming to me. That’s why I’m running.”
Chafee spoke in a reedy near-whisper, punctuated by a frantic grin that flashed across his face at odd moments. He was unsparing in his assessment of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic frontrunner, whom he served alongside in the Senate, where she voted to authorize the Iraq war and he did not—the lone Republican to vote against it. “I’ve always thought the war vote, even though it’s a long time ago, but also the tenure as secretary of state,” he said, trailing off without finishing the sentence. “It was just too unilateral an approach to the world,” he said.
Chafee’s slogan is “Prosperity Through Peace,” but he’s not focused enough on one topic to be called a message candidate. When I brought up the metric system, he sighed. “I also talked about banning drones,” he said. “I also talked about no capital punishment. I also talked about bringing Edward Snowden home, and stopping torture, and stopping warrantless wiretapping. But I haven’t gotten one question about bringing Edward Snowden home.” His interest in the metric system, he said, stemmed from living in Canada when that country went metric, in the ’70s, and seeing how easy the process was. “It’s just America growing up a little bit and joining the world,” he said, pointing out that the only other non-metric countries are Liberia and Myanmar.
Perhaps, I said hopefully, this policy had attracted metric advocates to Chafee’s campaign? He shook his head. “No, no, no,” he said.
Chafee’s campaign had a staff of two—his press secretary, Debbie Rich, and campaign manager, Jon Stevens, both of whom he had known for decades. (Stevens, an urban planner by profession, described the campaign as “kind of a sabbatical for me.”) It received scarcely $50,000 in donations; its main source of funds was a $364,000 loan from Chafee. Once or twice a week, he drove from his home in Warwick, Rhode Island, to New Hampshire, where he was a constant presence at Democratic events. (I was surprised at how widely he was recognized at the backyard picnic in Hampton, until I learned he had addressed the Hampton Democrats twice before. The group’s chairman was pleased by Chafee’s tendency to respond promptly and personally to invitations.)
Despite his campaign’s aimless quality, Chafee professed to be having a good time. “I enjoy listening to people,” he said. “Being a horse person, listening is not just words—it’s body language and moods.” Unlike in politics, where his electoral record is mixed, Chafee was a very successful horseshoer. “No horse came through my shop—and I think 5,000 came through—that I didn’t get shoes on,” he said proudly. “Some of them came in right out of the pasture.” I asked if he preferred horses or people, and Chafee grinned. “Horses, uh, horses don’t talk. That’s one of their advantages,” he said.
In my canvas of the crowd, I couldn’t find anyone who planned to vote for Chafee. When I asked people why they guessed he was running, several shrugged; one man actually scratched his head. “Well, I mean, I heard him speak, but that doesn’t tell you much,” said a woman named Lynn Goodman. The man in the green fleece vest, an author and Unitarian lay minister named George Harvey, said he was planning to vote for Bernie Sanders.
“At first, I thought perhaps he is looking to be an educator candidate, to bring forth the issue that’s important to him,” rather than to win per se, Harvey explained. But in listening to Chafee, he’d decided that was not the case: “No, I get the sense that he really feels, in earnest, that he is a good candidate.” As Harvey spoke, I could see Chafee across the tent, serving himself fruit salad from the buffet. He was a bad candidate but a lovely guest—quiet, polite, unobtrusive. Perhaps, even though he’s no longer in the race, he’ll still be invited to the picnics.

This is a true passed by pet. Nymeria is a good, all around dog who frequently gets looked over because of her brown coat and shy demeanor. Don’t let that fool you- once Nymeria warms up to you, she is sweet and loving and full of personality. She would love to go home with a family that has some time to help her with her obedience training and potty manners.
Weasley came to PAWS all the way from Germany! He is rather picky about who he chooses to associate with and likes to live life a bit more independently. When he arrived at PAWS, Weasley’s teeth were in really bad shape and most of them needed to be removed. Because of this, he requires a wet food only diet. Even though not every person is Weasley’s cup of tea, once he meets his perfect human(s), we believe he will warm up to them and be thrilled to have a forever home.
Maxx is a dog who started out at PAWS afraid, confused, and detached. However, once we got him into a foster home where he could rule a backyard, he was a completely different dog! He loves being outdoors and will require a home with a fenced in yard, however he does enjoy spending time with his family indoors now as well. Ideally, we would love to adopt Maxx out directly from his foster home so he can avoid coming back to the shelter. If you are interested in meeting Maxx, please call PAWS to set up a meeting time.

TOWIE’s Pete Wicks is devastated over the death of his beloved nan and has pulled out of filming the show’s trip to the Dominican Republic.
His ex Ella Wise, 22, spoke exclusively to The Sun about how Pete, 33, was coping.
“I messaged him and wished him my love,” Ella, who admits she and Pete still text and “have a little flirt”, revealed. “I think he is doing ok.”
She confirmed that he wouldn’t have been able to film in the Caribbean, adding: “It would have been hard for him to be here.”
Ella is currently filming overseas with the cast while Pete has stayed back in Essex following the sad news.
The Towie star announced his beloved grandmother’s passing on Instagram today, writing “I hope you knew how much you were loved.”
Emotional Pete, 33, shared one photo of him and his smiling nan Doreen sitting outside with a Christmas tree behind her, and another of Doreen in hospital, as Pete tenderly held her hand.
The heartbroken star paid tribute to his grandmother, who was in her early eighties when she died, and said: “Nan, Despite knowing this time would always come it doesn’t make it any easier.
“It’s taken me days not knowing what to say because no words will ever be able to describe what you meant to me. My heart is broken and I have never felt so lost.
“I have been blessed to have you as my nan but more importantly to have you as my best friend.
“The strength, resilience, love, empathy and compassion you have shown throughout your life is a lesson to us all and without doubt the only good parts of me come from you.
“I hope you knew how much you were loved. Sleep well and be at peace, no one deserves it more. I love you.🦋🖤”
Pete was comforted by friends and fans beneath the post, with Ex Towie star Danielle Armstrong writing: “😢 so sorry for loss babe 💔 xxx”
Co-star Georgia Kousoulou said: “So sorry for your loss Pete ❤”

Canada PM Trudeau cancels Europe trip with CETA deal still in limboComments
He was supposed to be in Europe on Thursday for the signing of a landmark free trade deal with the EU.
But Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has pulled out of a scheduled summit in Brussels after politicians there failed to break their deadlock over the deal.
Belgium’s Wallonia region led by Socialist Paul Magnette has effectively vetoed the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA).
All 28 EU governments support the deal, which has been seven years in the making, but Belgium can’t sign up until it gets consent from all its sub-federal administrations.
The objections of the mainly French-speaking region include fears that agricultural imports from Canada will negatively impact Europe’s farmers.
European Council President Donald Tusk has said there would be consequences for Europe’s global position if it failed to strike a deal with Canada, “the most European country outside Europe and a close friend and ally”.
Talks were continuing in Belgium on Thursday in the hope that a compromise deal can be reached – and signed at a later date.
Belgium’s former prime minister, Guy Verhofstadt, currently President of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, is remaining optimistic.
#CETA is not dead and we shouldn't give up on it either. I'm confident we'll find a deal in November that can be signed in December. pic.twitter.com/n6F1igR6nz— Guy Verhofstadt (@GuyVerhofstadt) 25 octobre 2016
So, to, it seems is the Canadian prime minister.

WGA Will “Proceed In Force” With Discovery & Then To Trial In Legal Fight With Big 3 Agencies, Despite Court Setback
“We look forward to proceeding with discovery and then to trial,” Robb the WGA told its members today of its yearlong legal battle with the Big 3 talent agencies. That’s despite a stinging, but not total, loss in court Monday, when a federal judge dismissed a large chunk of the guild’s antitrust lawsuit against WME, CAA and UTA. The agencies declared the ruling “a resounding victory.”
“Yesterday the federal judge handed down a decision on motions in the lawsuit the WGA filed against WME, CAA and UTA,” the guild’s negotiating committee told WGA members today. “He upheld some of our claims and dismissed others. The most disappointing of those dismissed was the racketeering charge. But the core claims of our lawsuit – namely, that packaging is a breach of fiduciary duty, and that the agencies have committed antitrust violations by fixing the price of those packages – those claims remain.
Big 3 Agencies Claim ‘Resounding Victory’ After Judge Dismisses WGA’s Antitrust Claims; Union Looks Ahead – Update
“While the agencies are predictably claiming victory in hopes of undermining member solidarity, in private they are not celebrating. This is not the ‘victory’ they predicted or that they needed, which was the complete dismissal of the lawsuit. Instead, six powerful claims that, in their scope, call into question the entirety of the packaging regime will now continue to trial. Discovery – which the agencies have reason to fear and which has already begun – will now proceed in force. The agencies will be required to defend, in public, those practices that for decades they sought to keep private. For those purposes, six claims is enough.
“Through all of this, our goal has always been the same, to realign agency economic interest with ours. This lawsuit remains powerful pressure in that direction. And it operates alongside our greatest asset: your solidarity in continuing to deprive the remaining unfranchised agencies of their writer clients.
“With the judge’s decision yesterday, there will be no lifeline to shield the agencies. We look forward to proceeding with discovery and then to trial.”

Big 3 Agencies Claim “Resounding Victory” After Judge Dismisses WGA’s Antitrust Claims; Union Looks Ahead – Update
By David Robb Deadline April 27, 2020 8:56 pm
UPDATED with WGA statement, 8:56: Saying the WGA’s claims were “gutted,” Hollywood’s Big 3 talent agencies declared “a resounding victory” in a statement reacting to a federal judge dismissing huge chunks of the union’s antitrust lawsuit against them today.
In its own statement later, however, the WGA said it plans to fight on, saying, “The court’s decision assures that the Guild’s core claims … will be explored through discovery.”
Here are the sides’ dual statements. First is WME, CAA and UTA’s take:
“The WGA’s claims against the major talent agencies were gutted today by the federal court. This is a resounding victory for CAA, UTA and WME. The judge ruled that the WGA has no standing to bring most of its claims and further has rejected the Guild’s contention that packaging fees are a form of a kickback. What has become crystal clear is that David Young, David Goodman and this WGA leadership have led thousands of writers over a cliff, wasted their member dues on failed lawsuits, and left them without agents to represent and advocate for them for more than a year.
Big 3 Talent Agencies Say COVID-19 Presents New ‘Difficulties’ In Legal Battle With WGA Over Packaging Fees
‘While the agencies value the WGA’s role, the Guild’s current leadership has overstepped, recklessly damaging personal and professional relationships and forcing agents to defend their integrity and their livelihoods against the Guild’s false claims and inflammatory rhetoric. Meanwhile, the agencies’ claims against the WGA move full steam ahead.”
Here is how WGA West president David A. Goodman reacted to today’s ruling:
“We obviously would have preferred a complete victory. But the court’s decision assures that the Guild’s core claims, namely that packaging is a breach of fiduciary duty and that agencies have committed antitrust violations by fixing the price of those packages, will be explored through discovery, and ultimately in court. That’s what we wanted. There remain six powerful claims in our lawsuit that we will pursue, and discovery is underway. We are confident that the evidence uncovered in this process will support the claims detailed in our lawsuit.”
In his stinging ruling handed down Monday (read it here), U.S. District Court Judge Andre Birotte Jr. allowed some lesser aspects of the union’s case to proceed, but he ruled that the WGA:
- Lacks antitrust standing to pursue their federal price-fixing claim;
- Lacks organizational standing to bring claims for breach of fiduciary duty and constructive fraud on behalf of their members;
- Lacks Article III standing to bring an Unfair Competition Law cause of action on their own behalf;
- Failed to plead racketeering activity;
- Failed to state claims upon which relief can be granted with respect to And that their “group boycott claims
The judge, however, denied a motion filed by WME, CAA and UTA to dismiss the guild’s Cartwright Act price-fixing claim and will allow several individual plaintiffs to pursue their claims in court, including:
- Their individual claims of breach of fiduciary duty.
- Their individual Unfair Competition Law claims.
- Barbara Hall’s breach of contact claim.
On January 6, the judge denied the WGA’s motion to dismiss the antitrust lawsuits filed against it by agencies, which means that all of their complaints can move forward. He heard oral arguments on the WGA’s motion to dismiss the agencies’ claims on January 24.
In granting the agencies’ motion to dismiss the guild’s federal price-fixing claim, the judge wrote that the agencies contend that allegations made by the WGA East and West, which are the counterclaimants in the suit, even if accepted as true, “demonstrate that Counterclaimants (the guilds) do not participate in the same market as the Agencies and suffer derivative injury only. In particular, the Agencies contend that Counterclaimants’ allegations demonstrate that they neither buy nor sell packages, and that they do not otherwise participate in any market in which packages are bought and sold.
“In opposition, Counterclaimants do not argue that they buy or sell packages, or that they participate in the talent representation market where packages are bought and sold. Indeed, Counterclaimants’ allegations unambiguously demonstrate that studios—not the Guilds or their writer-members—purchase packages from the Agencies, and that the Agencies and their non-party competitors sell packages to the studios. The core of Counterclaimants’ per se price-fixing claim is that ‘rather than compete with each other, the Agencies and their co-conspirators have instead collusively agreed to propose the same packaging fee terms to [production] studios.’ The injuries Counterclaimants allege—that writer-members suffer decreased profit participation, decreased employment opportunities, decreased production quality, and that the Guilds receive lower union dues while expending money to inform their members of the harms of packaging and publicly advocate against the practice—all derive from the allegedly higher prices paid by production studios that employ writers.
“Accordingly, because Counterclaimants’ allegations demonstrate that they neither buy nor sell talent representation services, and that their injuries are entirely derivative of the allegedly higher prices paid by production studios, Counterclaimants have not shown antitrust injury. The Court therefore GRANTS without leave to amend the Agencies’ motion to dismiss Counterclaimants’ first cause of action for per se price-fixing in violation of the Sherman Act.”
In a major decision favoring the guild, however, the judge ruled that the WGA’s price-fixing claim under California’s antitrust Cartwright Act can move forward. In denying the agencies’ motion to dismiss this aspect of the case, the judge noted that “California requires a high degree of particularity in the pleading of Cartwright Act violations . . . and therefore generalized allegations of antitrust violations are usually insufficient.” Here, the guilds alleged that “in or around 1995-1996, and continuing through to the present,” with the exact start date unknown, the Agencies and their coconspirators entered into a continuing agreement to fix and maintain the 3-3-10 packaging fee structure and to charge the same base license fees to studios.”
The judge noted that the WGA alleges that “this price-fixing conspiracy was set in a meeting by Lee Gabler of CAA and Ari Emanuel of then Endeavor and now WME, and that the Agencies have maintained this price-fixing conspiracy by sharing competitively sensitive information when they jointly package television series. Counterclaimants (the guilds) further allege that they suffered injury from this price-fixing conspiracy in the form of reduced compensation and employment opportunities, and reduced quality of talent representation services. Accordingly, Counterclaimants have pleaded specific factual allegations showing the formation and operation of a conspiracy, wrongful acts done pursuant to the conspiracy, and resulting injury, nudging Counterclaimants’ allegations across the line from conceivable to plausible. The Court accordingly DENIES the Agencies’ motion to dismiss Counterclaimants’ third cause of action for per se price-fixing in violation of the Cartwright Act.”
In granting the agencies’ motion to dismiss the guilds’ group boycott claim, the judge wrote that “To establish a per se violation of Sherman Act for an unlawful group boycott,” the WGA “must plead that there was a horizontal agreement among direct competitors.” He also noted that “mere participation in trade organization meetings where information is exchanged and strategies are advocated does not suggest an illegal agreement.”
Here, he wrote, the guilds allege that the agencies “have entered into a horizontal agreement to: (1) take a common stance with the Guilds in negotiations over a new franchise agreement, (2) refuse to negotiate with the Guilds on an individual basis, (3) threaten lawyers and talent managers with litigation, and (4) blacklist any agency that agrees to the Guilds’ Code of Conduct.” He noted, however, that the WGA’s specific factual allegations show only that the Association of Talent Agents, a trade association of talent agents, (1) stated its disapproval of talent agencies negotiating individually with the Guilds, (2) sent two letters warning of potential legal consequences of having talent managers or attorneys negotiate employment terms for Guild-members, (3) stated that agreeing to the Code of Conduct would hurt a talent agency’s business, and (4) distributed to ATA members one talent agency’s response to the Guilds’ request to negotiate individually.
“Rather than demonstrating a horizontal agreement among competitors, these allegations show, at most, participation by the Agencies ‘in trade association meetings where information is exchanged and strategies are advocated.’”
Further, the WGA’s “allegations that individual talent agencies refused to negotiate individually with the Guilds through similarly worded responses, does not plausibly allege a horizontal agreement among the Agencies,” noting case law that says that “Mere allegations of parallel conduct—even consciously parallel conduct—are insufficient to state a claim under § 1 of the Sherman Act.”
Accordingly, because the guilds “have not plausibly alleged a horizontal agreement among the Agencies, the Court GRANTS the Agencies’ motion to dismiss” the guild’s second and fourth causes of action.
The judge also dismissed the guild’s racketeering allegations, which claimed that packaging fees they received were “illegal kickbacks” from the studios. The core purpose of anti-kickback provisions of the Labor Management Relations Act, the judge found, “is to prevent corruption of employee representatives who are chosen by, and have a statutory duty to represent the interests of, other employees.” As the Agencies correctly argue, although the LMRA has been on the books for over seventy years, Section 302 has been applied only to kickbacks made to union leaders or union-managed retirement funds. Further, (the guilds) have made no showing that prohibiting studios from paying packaging fees to the Agencies furthers the LMRA’s core purpose of ‘preventing corruption of employees representatives who are chosen by . . . other employees.”
Pointing to the WGA’s Working Rule 23, which provides that members may only be represented by agencies that sign an appropriate franchise agreement with the Guilds, the judge also said that “it is the Guilds—not the employee-writers—who choose which talent agencies may represent writers in their negotiations.”
Accordingly, because the WGA’s allegations “do not demonstrate that the Agencies are representatives within the meaning of Section 302, the Court GRANTS without leave to amend the Agencies’ motion to dismiss Counterclaimants’ eighth through eleventh causes of action.”
In ruling that the guilds lack organizational standing to bring claims for breach of fiduciary duty and constructive fraud on behalf of their members, the judge found that “An organization has standing to bring suit on behalf of its members where “( its members would otherwise have standing to sue in their own right;  the interests the organization seeks to protect are germane to the organization’s purpose; and  neither the claim asserted nor the relief requested requires the participation of individual members in the lawsuit.”
“Here, the Guilds’ allegations demonstrate that a litany of individualized assessments would be necessary to determine whether the Agencies breached their fiduciary duties to individual writer-members. As the Agencies show, resolving the Guilds’ breach of fiduciary duty and constructive fraud claims would require determining: (1) which writers were represented by the Agencies, (2) what the details of each writer’s packaging arrangement were, (3) what information each individual writer received with respect to the details of each packaging arrangement, (4) whether any member(s) assented to those packaging terms after receiving such information, and (5) what damages each individual members suffered as a proximate cause of the Agencies’ breach of fiduciary duties.”
The WGA’s allegation that the Agencies have never obtained their writer-clients’ valid, informed consent to receive packaging fees, he wrote, “does not negate the need for these individualized determinations. Accordingly, because the Guilds’ breach of fiduciary duty and constructive fraud claims cannot be resolved without participation of the Guilds’ individual members, the Court GRANTS the Agencies’ motion to dismiss the Guilds’ fifth and sixth causes of action.”
The judge, however, is allowing the individual plaintiffs – Patricia Carr, Ashley Gable, Barbara Hall, Deric A. Hughes, Deirdre Mangan, and Meredith Stiehm – to proceed with their own claims of breach of fiduciary duty.
“The Guilds’ lack of organizational standing does not affect the standing of these individual Counterclaimants to bring suit,” the judge ruled. “The allegations of the individual Counterclaimants show that the Agencies acted as the agents for individual Counterclaimants in their negotiations with production studios,” he wrote. “Further, individual Counterclaimants allege that they were never given the details of packaging arrangements while they were represented by the Agencies. Individual Counterclaimants allege that, as a result of the Agencies’ failure to disclose material terms of packaging arrangements, they suffered damages including ‘lost wages and lost employment opportunities.’ Accordingly, because individual Counterclaimants have stated a claim for breach of fiduciary duty, the Court DENIES the Agencies’ motion to dismiss individual Counterclaimants’ fifth cause of action.”

The performers union, which has about 160,000 members, and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers surprised the industry on April 24 with the announcement that talks would begin today via video teleconference due to California’s stay-at-home order. SAG-AFTRA’s current three-year master contract expires in two months on June 30.
SAG-AFTRA president Gabrielle Carteris will chair the union’s negotiating committee and national executive director David White will serve as SAG-AFTRA’s chief negotiator. The lead negotiator for the AMPTP will be president Carol Lombardini.
Neither side addressed what will happen with the scheduled contract negotiations between Hollywood studios and the Writers Guild of America. The WGA talks, which were expected to start May 11, were pushed into uncertainty last week when the sides sparred over the WGA’s request that the AMPTP temporarily ease eligibility requirements for the health plan. The exchange prompted WGA West executive director and lead negotiator David Young to call his studio counterparts “despicable” in a letter to Lombardini.
The AMPTP announced April 18 that it had approved a May 11 starting date with the WGA and a provision that both sides would exchange negotiating proposals on May 1. Lombardini assented in a letter to the timetable proposed by Young, including extending the contract expiration from May 1 to June 30.
The potential stumbling block centers on Young’s proposal in his April 15 letter that the WGA Health Fund — jointly administered by representatives of the guild and the studios — extend eligibility to plan participants through the end of the year. Lombardini said in the letter to Young that she would need to conduct discussions among studio reps before she could respond. In a letter that went public on April 23, Young responded, “There will be an agreement when both sides agree there’s one. You people are despicable.”
Neither the AMPTP or the WGA has responded since then. For now, the only certainty is that SAG-AFTRA is again following the close-to-the-vest playbook of the Directors Guild of America. The DGA deal, ratified April 2, includes gains in residuals for members working on original SVOD series, increases in employer contributions to the pension plan; and annual wage increases (2.5% in the first year, 3% in the second and third).
As usual, leaders of SAG-AFTRA are releasing no details of their proposal prior to negotiations and holding the talks under a news blackout. The SAG-AFTRA national board approved the proposals for the feature film-primetime TV contract nearly a year ago in July — without ever disclosing the substance of those proposals. At the same meeting, the SAG-AFTRA leaders also approved a separate three-year deal with Netflix that expires on June 30, 2022. That deal did not require ratification by the membership.

Ahmedabad: With four holes to go, Rahil Gangjee was three clear of the field and seemed ensure that there was no looking back the Gujarat Kensville Challenge 2012 on Sunday. But on the home straight that should have ideally given him the title, Gangjee faltered and allowed Max Kieffer to get a toehold, which the young German converted into a title in the first play-off hole at the Kensville Golf and Country Club.
Gangjee (71), one clear of the field at the start ended regulation play, finished at seven-under 281, while Kieffer made up the one-shot deficit with which he had started. His 70 brought him to 281 and off they into the play-off.
It was a see-saw battle right till the end of regulation play after which Gangjee gave it was away with a shot that he would otherwise have accomplished 99 out of 100 times – a bunker shot from the edge, which in this case hit the lip and went into the stream ahead, dashing all his hopes of ending an eight-year title drought.
In the play-off Kieffer’s drive went to the right side of the fairway, just short of the bunker, but Gangjee's went into the edge of the bunker. Kieffer hit his second to the green to about 40 feet and Gangjee's 5-iron second shot hit the lip of the bunker and bounced into the stream virtually ending his hopes. Gangjee chipped his fourth to 20 feet, while and two-putted for six. Kieffer safely two putted from 40 feet for par and won his maiden European Challenge Tour title.
Kieffer won a cheque of Euros 32,000 which was presented to him by Sameer Sinha, Jaxay Shah and Jigesh Shah of the Savvy Group. Gangjee received Euros 22,000.
There was a three-way tie for third place with Paul Dwyer (68), Andreas Harto (71) and Callum MaCaullay (70) at five-under 283.
Gangjee’s second place was a big boost for Kensville Challenge, which in the previous year had provided an Indian winner in Gaganjeet Bhullar, who was tied 36th this time.
Shiv Kapur, who had shared the midway lead with Gangjee shot 72 on the final day and ended tied ninth at one-under 287. The next best Indian was Ashok Kumar (74) at tied 28th and with him was Sri Lankan Mithun Perera (72), who plays mostly in India.
“The turning point was the 16th, where I missed a short one for bogey and Kieffer birdied. That gave him a two-shot swing and we were even. At some point when I was three ahead I did think the momentum was on my side and I could win, but Kieffer pulled off those two late birdies to get into play-off,” said Gangjee.
“When I birdied 14 and got to nine under, I knew I was ahead of Max but he was not my point of focus because I did eventually look at the scoreboard but I knew there was somebody else who was six under. I was just going shot by shot.”
On the play-off hole, he added, “The ball was in the bunker near the lip, which was about a foot high. But I did not even think about it. I hit a 5-iron and the ball hit the lip and went into water. I least expected it and it ended my chances.”
He added, “I had enough club for the flag, I was going to try pitch it maybe 6-7 yards onto the green and because it was a five iron I was hoping it would run up, like what I did on the last hole of regular play, but it caught the lip.”
“I have to thank Kensville because they gave me a spot to play here and it turned out pretty good. I wasn’t going to come here initially but after playing the Asian Tour qualifier I decided to come play here and hopefully make some money and go and spend it on travelling again I guess,” said Gangjee.
Kieffer, who missed coming to India two years ago for the Bonallack Cup – an amateur event between Europe and Asia-Pacific teams – finally made it and his maiden trip was a winning one. “I was looking forward to India two years ago and then I turned professional. It was a tight finish and it really means a lot to me,” said Kieffer.
He added, “This definitely sets me up for the season very nicely, it’s great to win the first tournament of the year and especially as the prize money is good.”
Kieffer, 57th in the Challenge Tour Rankings last year, added, “Of course there were a few nerves on the inside, but I was delighted with how I coped mentally.
Obviously when Rahil went into the water in the play-off I could afford to relax a little bit, but I still expected him to make a five so I had to concentrate. It was a great relief to roll my birdie putt close, and when Rahil missed his bogey putt, I knew the title was mine. It gives me a great chance to finish in the top 20 of the Rankings this year, but there’s still a very long way to go.”
Gangjee played with Kieffer and Dodge Kemmer in the lead group. The Indian missed a couple of makeable birdie putts, but still parred his first seven holes. Kieffer, one behind, went two back with a bogey on fifth. Meanwhile Kemmer began unraveling with bogeys on fifth and sixth and another on eighth and then he ended all hopes with a double on ninth.
Kieffer roared back with birdies on sixth, seventh and ninth and suddenly the German was two ahead at the turn.
The see-saw battle continued as it was now Gangjee’s turn to bounce back with birdies on 10th and 11th and Kieffer dropped a shot on 10th. To go to six-under.
The pendulum swung once last time as Kieffer birdied the 14th and 16th while Gangjee bogeyed the 15th and 16th. It was once again all square at seven-under.
Andreas Harto, too got to six-under at one stage after a birdie on 11th but he bogeyed the 15th and ended in tied third.

The House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol has decided to make criminal referrals to the Department of Justice, the panel’s chairman, Rep. Bennie Thompson, told reporters Tuesday.
Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat, said the committee has not narrowed down the universe of individuals who may be referred.
Asked whether Thompson believed any witnesses perjured themselves, he said, “that’s part of the discussion.”
When the panel makes referrals, Thompson said it will be a separate document from the panel’s final report that will be sent to DOJ.
The committee is expected to meet later Tuesday.
A source tells CNN the criminal referrals the January 6 committee will ultimately be making “will be focused on the main organizers and leaders of the attacks.” [Continue reading…]

Flying in Etihad Airways' private first-class en-suite bedroom, which launches this December? It was designed in London, by Acumen Design Associates and Factorydesign. Thai Airways, South African Airways and Cathay Pacific have sought out London designers, too. "The pre-eminence of the UK in design education gives the British industry an edge when it comes to defining functioning interiors," says Peter Tennent, cofounder of Factorydesign. In fact, the cabins for several airlines worldwide were created by four London design firms -- Priestmangoode, JPA Design, Acumen Design Associates and Factorydesign. "Our motor- and racing-car industries are great at high-quality, low-quantity production," says Paul Priestman, director of Priestmangoode. London's four main aviation consultancies, he says, borrow from that heritage. Here's a glimpse into how they work.
Factory Design A newcomer to the sector, Factorydesign has landed its biggest client so far with Etihad Airways. This layout was achieved by using a 5mm-thick lightweight material called E-leather. At just 30kg per triple seat, it reduces overall seat weight by about 950kg, which in turn could save $150,000-$200,000 (£88,000-£117,000) a year in fuel. Founded in 1997 by designers Peter Tennent, Adrian Berry and Adam White, it has worked with luxury brands such as Mont Blanc. "We have learnt to understand the intimacy between people and the objects or world around them," says Tennent.
Coming up: Cabin interiors for Four Seasons Hotels' luxury jet, launching in February 2015.

Jon Fitch takes to Twitter to say that, despite WSOF announcing that he would fight the winner of Rousimar Palhares in July, he agreed to fight no later than June.
World Series of Fighting saw their ninth edition go into the books last night, capped off with a welterweight title win by the always controversial Rousimar Palhares.
WSOF had announced their plans for the title before the event even kicked off, the winner of Palhares vs. Steve Carl would face former UFC title challenger Jon Fitch in July, as MMA Fighting reported:
World Series of Fighting executive vice president Ali Abdel-Aziz told MMAFighting.com that UFC veteran Jon Fitch will headline WSOF 11 card in the first week of July against the winner of Carl vs. Rousimar Palhares. The exact date and the host city for the card are yet to be finalized.
Fitch vs. Palhares is about as good as it gets for drawing power in the WSOF, so the promotion had to be excided when Palhares had his hand raised.
There is one small snag, however:
That's right. Shortly after the event went off the air, Fitch took to Twitter to say that he had agreed to fight no later than June. A month earlier than Abdel-Aziz's announcement of an early July date.
In theory, this wouldn't seem to be a huge hurdle to clear. However, the fact that Fitch felt the need to say it -- in public shortly after the event ended, no less -- suggests that there may be some more difficulty than one might think.

New catalysts designed and investigated by Tufts University School of Engineering researchers and collaborators from other university and national laboratories have the potential to greatly reduce processing costs in future fuels, such as hydrogen.
The catalysts are composed of a unique structure of single gold atoms bound by oxygen to several sodium or potassium atoms and supported on non-reactive silica materials. They demonstrate comparable activity and stability with catalysts comprising precious metal nanoparticles on rare- earth and other reducible oxide supports when used in producing highly purified hydrogen.
The work, which appears in the November 27, 2014, edition of Science Express, points to new avenues for producing single-site supported gold catalysts that could produce high-grade hydrogen for cleaner energy use in fuel-cell powered devices, including vehicles.
"In the face of precious metals scarcity and exorbitant fuel-processing costs, these systems are promising in the search for sustainable global energy solutions," says senior author Maria Flytzani-Stephanopoulos, the Robert and Marcy Haber Endowed Professor in Energy Sustainability and professor in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering at Tufts.
Flytzani-Stephanopoulos's research group has been active in designing catalysts requiring a lower amount of precious metals to generate high-grade hydrogen for use in fuel cells. The water-gas shift reaction, in which carbon monoxide is removed from the fuel gas stream by reacting with water to produce carbon dioxide and hydrogen, is a key step in the process. Catalysts, such as metal oxide supported precious metals like platinum and gold, are used to lower the reaction temperature and increase the production of hydrogen.
The Tufts group was the first to demonstrate that atomically dispersed gold or platinum on supports, such as cerium oxide, are the active sites for the water-gas shift reaction. (doi:10.1126/science.1192449). Metal nanoparticles are "spectator species" for this reaction.
Flytzani-Stephanopoulos says the new research suggests single precious metal atoms stabilized with alkali ions may be the only important catalyst sites for other catalytic reactions. "If the other particles are truly 'spectator species', they are therefore unnecessary. Future catalyst production should then focus on avoiding particle formation altogether and instead be prepared solely with atomic dispersion on various supports," says Flytzani-Stephanopoulos.
The just published research describes how single gold atoms dispersed on non-reactive supports based on silica materials can be stabilized with alkali ions. As long as the gold atoms, or cations, are stabilized in a single-site form configuration, irrespective of the type of support, the precious metal will be stable and operate for many hours at a range of practical temperatures.
"This novel atomic-scale catalyst configuration achieves the maximum efficiency and utilization of the gold," says Flytzani-Stephanopoulos, who directs the Tufts Nano Catalysis and Energy Laboratory. "Our work showed that these single-site gold cations were active for the low-temperature water-gas shift reaction and stable in operation at temperatures as high as 200°C."
"Armed with this new understanding, practitioners will be able to design catalysts using just the necessary amount of the precious metals like gold and platinum, dramatically cutting down the catalyst cost in fuels and chemicals production processes," she adds.
Paper co-authors Professor Manos Mavrikakis at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Assistant Professor Ye Xu at Louisiana State University used theoretical calculations to predict the stability and thermochemical properties of the single-site configuration. Researchers Larry Allard at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Sungsik Lee at Argonne National Laboratory used atomic resolution electron microscopy and x-ray absorption spectroscopies, respectively, to demonstrate the existence and stability of the single-site gold species. Co-author Jun Huang, a lecturer at the University of Sydney, synthesized and characterized the silica materials used as supports. Several graduate students were involved in all aspects of the research both at Tufts and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
The paper appears in the November 27, 2014, edition of Science Express (doi:10.1126/science.1260526). This research is primarily supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under grant # DE-FG02-05ER15730.
Located on Tufts' Medford/Somerville campus, the School of Engineering offers a rigorous engineering education in a unique environment that blends the intellectual and technological resources of a world-class research university with the strengths of a top-ranked liberal arts college. Close partnerships with Tufts' excellent undergraduate, graduate and professional schools, coupled with a long tradition of collaboration, provide a strong platform for interdisciplinary education and scholarship. The School of Engineering's mission is to educate engineers committed to the innovative and ethical application of science and technology in addressing the most pressing societal needs, to develop and nurture twenty-first century leadership qualities in its students, faculty, and alumni, and to create and disseminate transformational new knowledge and technologies that further the well-being and sustainability of society in such cross-cutting areas as human health, environmental sustainability, alternative energy, and the human-technology interface.
