Wizard of Oz costume that was due to take place at an auction earlier this week (May 23).One of the blue-and-white checked gingham dresses that Judy Garland wore for her role as Dorothy in the film was schedule to be auctioned as part of a collection of Hollywood memorabilia in Los Angeles last Tuesday (May 24).The item was put up for auction by the Catholic University of America after being rediscovered in a shoebox last year at the school.The auctioneers, Bonhams, had listed a pre-auction estimate of $800,000 to $1.2million (£633,000-£792,000) on the item before it was withdrawn.As reported in The Guardian, US district judge Paul Gardephe in Manhattan “granted a motion for a preliminary injunction” after a lawsuit was filed by a relative of Father Gilbert Hartke, a priest who worked at the school and was given the dress in 1973.Hartke died in 1986 but his a niece, Barbara Ann Hartke, 81, filed a lawsuit against the school and auctioneer earlier this month after seeing news of the item in the media.She claims the dress was given to him as a personal gift by the actor Mercedes McCambridge.The lawsuit claims the organisation “has no ownership interest in the dress as …there is no documentation demonstrating decedent ever formally or informally donated the dress to Catholic University”.The school’s attorneys have claimed however that as a priest, Hartke had taken a vow “to never accept gifts in his personal capacity”.In a statement, lawyers for the Catholic University school said: “We look forward to presenting our position, and the overwhelming evidence contradicting Ms Hartke’s claim, to the court in the course of this litigation.”NME has reached out to Bonhams for comment.

robot which takes the form of a blob that can behave both as a solid and a liquid.The blob makes use of magnetic particles within its system to help it shift into different shapes and navigate through all sorts of tight and narrow spaces.Already picking up traction on the internet as a ‘magnetic slime robot’ after its creators at the the Chinese University of Hong Kong announced it at the end of March this year, some have likened it to the gooey form taken by Marvel character Venom.READ MORE: Robot dog named Spot to tackle tomb raiders in ancient Roman ruins of PompeiiOthers, taking a more comical approach, have compared it to Flubber, the 1997 sci-fi comedy film starring the late Robin Williams.However, some who have not been so kind in their comparisons, have called it a ‘magnetic turd’ based on its colour, texture and default appearance.The magnetic slime has already shown itself to have the ability to perform a range of impressive tasks in demonstration videos.It can expand and contract, twist and turn, and even form the shape of an O when other magnets are applied to it externally.The robot’s co-creator Prof Li Zhang said: “The ultimate goal is to deploy it like a robot.”The scientist added that the robot is still in its fundamental research phase and that they are still trying to “understand its material properties,” which Prof Zhang described as being “visco-elastic”, much like “mixing water with [corn] starch at home”.Prof Zhang added: “When you touch it very quickly it behaves like a solid.

Max Verstappen has slammed his teammate Sergio Perez for his 'irritating' crash in Monaco qualifying and has suggested that drivers could use foul play to force a red flag in sessions. Saturday's qualifying session came to a premature end following a chaotic sequence of events in the final minute that saw three cars crash, with Perez losing control of his rear end in the final corner before the tunnel section and Carlos Sainz then did the same, hitting the stationary Red Bull.Elsewhere on the track, Alpine's Fernando Alonso put his car in the wall and the red flags were waved, denying Verstappen another lap and an opportunity to potentially improve on his fourth-place start for Sunday's race.That meant it was the second year in a row that the Monaco qualifying session has been brought to a close with a red flag, with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc crashing out last year - and his crash ensured he'd start on pole, though he ended up unable to start the race.Verstappen has suggested that drivers could utilise that tactic to preserve their ranking in the session, as there isn't any punishment for crashing out.“It is irritating and a pity of course that the one who put it in the wall was my teammate.
