Once fully renovated, the building will house a helium test facility ('HTF') for full-scale integrated systems testing in a pressurized helium environment, as well as an experimental test facility ('XTF') for testing and prototyping of critical reactor components and materials. The facility will also provide training for Xe-100 operators and maintenance technicians using a state-of-the-art, full-scale plant control room simulator similar to the advanced training simulator currently operating at X-energy's Plant Support Center, also in Frederick.

Together we aimed to align their growth goals with the unique assets and incentives Montgomery County offers—including the MOVE Grant and the Montgomery County Job Creation Fund. This decision reflects the shared commitment to innovation that defines our business community.' 'We're proud to welcome X-energy's latest expansion here in Frederick County.

Mattel slaps political podcast 'Coffee with Ken' with bizarre lawsuit
Mattel has filed a lawsuit against a Washington, DC-based political podcaster – claiming bizarrely that audiences might mistakenly associate his show with its Barbie franchise, The Post has learned. The toy giant has lodged a complaint with the US Patent and Trademark Office over 'Coffee with Ken,' a YouTube show hosted by Ken Biberaj, a DC-based real estate executive and former chair of the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce. The bi-monthly podcast – which features guests like Sen. Joe Manchin, billionaire David Rubenstein, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and 'Hamilton' star Leslie Odom Jr. – was granted preliminary approval for a trademark in 2023. Advertisement 6 Ken Biberaj launched his podcast 'Coffee with Ken' five years ago. Youtube 'We strive to focus our topics at the intersection of the public, private and social impact sectors,' said Biberaj, noting that the show now boasts 20,000 viewers per episode and hosts live events that can draw upwards of 200 attendees. 'I don't think anyone expected a doll to interview a governor,' Biberaj told The Post. Advertisement Nevertheless, Mattel insists that 'Coffee with Ken' could create confusion about whether it's associated with Barbie's squeaky-clean, beach-loving boyfriend, according to court papers. In particular, the El Segundo, Calif.-based company points to its Ken Barista doll — a hipster with a man bun and an apron who pulls perfect espresso shots — as proof of potential confusion. 6 The Ken Barista doll was discontinued.

Advertisement It's 'highly likely that a consumer will believe that [Coffee with Ken] could be the name of or related to a Ken line' of dolls, Mattel claimed in its filing. The Ken Barista doll is listed as discontinued on the official Barbie site, although it is still available at Mattel — still riding high on the blockbuster 'Barbie' movie where Ryan Gosling played a singing, rollerblading version of its beloved Ken — filed its objection in May, insisting 'Coffee with Ken' would 'damage' the brand. 6 Biberaj ran for New York City Council in 2013 and his family owns the iconic Russian Tea Room in Midtown Manhattan. Getty Images Advertisement Meanwhile Biberaj, who ran for New York City Council in 2013 and whose family owns the iconic Russian Tea Room in Midtown Manhattan, claims Barbie's big, deep-pocketed corporate parent is simply trying to push him around. 'My actual name is Ken,' Biberaj told The Post. 'Mattel shouldn't be able to block my trademark because of a doll.' Legal experts say Mattel might be overreaching. 6 Ryan Gosling as Ken in the 2023 Barbie movie. Jaap Buitendijk 'Mattel could have difficulty sustaining its opposition,' said trademark attorney Brad Rose of Pryor Cashman LLP. 'These are vastly different types of goods and audiences.' Biberaj's attorney, Angela Gasperini Shin, called Mattel's suit a classic case of 'trademark bullying.' 'They can't own the name Ken outside of dolls and toys,' she said.

Mattel declined to comment on the 'Coffee with Ken' fight, citing 'pending litigation.'
