Few slots left for volunteer for beach-grass planting
By Anonymous ()
Thursday, March 2, 2017 - 9:56am
If you've waited till the last minute to register for this year's beach-grass planting, your options are quickly disappearing.
Jennifer Luoma of DNREC's Division of Watershed Stewardship said volunteer spots at planting sites at Cape Henlopen State Park, upper Delaware Bay beaches, Lewes beach, Dewey Beach and Delaware Seashore State Park were full as of March 1; but there were still openings for the Fenwick Island site. The beach-grass planting will be held on Saturday, March 18.
There will be no new beach grass planted on Bethany Beach dunes this year, according to Luoma.
"The State's dune in Bethany is not being planted this year for a couple of reasons," she said. "We are hopeful that the beach and dunes will be fully restored in a beach nourishment project next year, and the dunes took a hit in a January nor'easter and the beach has not recovered enough to rebuild the dunes in time to be planted this year."
Every spring since 1990, volunteers have stabilized Delaware's sand dunes by planting more than 5 million stems of Cape American beachgrass along ocean and bay beaches.
Sand dunes provide protection against damaging coastal storms by absorbing wave energy. Sand dunes offer protection by acting as major sand storage areas that replenish sand to eroded beaches during storm events. Without sand dunes, storm waves rush inland and flood properties.
Dunes are unstable — subject to the ravages of wind and water. Beachgrass helps build and stabilize dunes. Blades of grass help trap wind-blown sand, which can create new dunes and expand existing dunes.
To promote new dune growth and to help protect inland properties from the ravages of flood waters, officials must limit — and sometimes prohibit — people and vehicles from crossing dunes in all but designated areas, especially as applies to beachgrass, which has thick, brittle stalks that can easily be broken and destroyed by pedestrian or vehicular traffic.
"Please help conserve Delaware's beaches by telling friends and family about the importance of beachgrass, and reminding them to stay off of the dunes," said Luoma.
For more information about beach-grass planting, call (302) 739-9921 or email questions to Jennifer Luoma at Jennifer.Luoma@state.de.us. Anyone interested in helping to plant dune grass in Fenwick Island can go to http://www.dnrec.delaware.gov/swc/Shoreline/Pages/BeachGrassPlanting.asp... to register.

Greenville-born Duke's mayo is the South's most fiercely loved condiment
The cult of Duke's
Business community wins big(ly) at the State House
Melinda Young
Duke's Foods,
Duke's Mayonnaise,
Duke's Sandwiches
To get an idea of how much people love Duke's mayonnaise, just take a look in an unlikely spot for debating condiments: College Confidential, a website featuring hundreds of discussions about getting into and affording college.
There, you'll find a thread with 100 comments about the most important debate known to man: which mayonnaise is better, Duke's and Hellmann's.
If the answer isn't already obvious to you — and it should be given that Duke's was founded right here in Greenville 100 years about by Eugenia Duke — one writer will clear it up for you: "Duke's was one of those things I couldn't do without when we transferred to N.J. I had friends stuffing jars in their golf bags when flying up here and was pleasantly surprised when TSA let me bring a jar home with me in my carry-on."
The love doesn't stop there.
Over at Amazon.com, one reviewer notes under the heading, "So Good You'll Smuggle It Across State Lines," "Every summer my family would spend a week at Pawley's Island, S.C., and every summer we would return with the trunk of the car loaded with cases of Duke's to get us through the coming year."
Another reviewer even called Duke's the "Chuck Norris of mayo."
That's high praise indeed.
And if there is any place that's best typifies the love that some folks have for Eugenia Duke's creation, it's the Duke Sandwich Shop on Poinsett Highway.
Longtime Duke fan Randy White of Easley was eating a ham and egg sandwich at lunch on a recent Wednesday. Since he retired 20 years ago, he's had the same lunch, every Monday through Saturday. That comes to 6,240 sandwiches.
Even more impressive, he doesn't live anywhere close to the restaurant. "I drive 10 miles here every day," White says.
The Duke's mayo story begins way back in 1917. Eugenia Duke was an entrepreneurial-minded housewife who started making pimento cheese, egg salad, and chicken salad sandwiches for soldiers at Camp Sevier, each one using her signature recipe for mayonnaise, which has a tangy bite where others go sweet. Her mayo, spreads, and sandwich spreads were immediate hits, and quickly transformed Duke into a successful businesswoman.
But when her only daughter married and moved to California, Duke followed her. In 1929, she sold her mayonnaise, sandwich relish, tartar sauce, and brand name, Duke's, to Richmond, Va.-based C.F. Sauer. The company, which has a plant in Greenville County, has used the same mayo recipe ever since.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BVrFKmtCvg
And it wasn't just her mayo Eugenia Duke sold: She also sold her recipes for her sandwich spreads, also under the Duke's name, to her bookkeeper, Alan Hart.
Hart operated Duke Sandwich Shop until the 1960s, when he sold the business to Estaleen and Loran Smart. They are the grandparents of Duke Brands' current CEO, Andrew Smart.
As CEO of Duke Brands, Smart oversees both Duke Food Productions, which manufactures sandwich spreads, and Duke Sandwich Company, the beloved sandwich shop.
Duke Sandwich Shop's customers are loyal, sometimes taking a dozen sandwiches or pound cake slices to tailgate parties, says Jerane Mote, director of training for Duke Food.
"Our customers spread the word that we make things homemade at an affordable price," Mote adds.
And it's not just the old-school diehards that Duke Sandwich Company attracts. The shop also brings in new fans like 10-year-old Ella Grace Burnett.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ze39JYPeBY&feature=youtu.be
Burnette was introduced to a Duke deviled egg sandwich when she was a toddler, and "she's been hooked ever since," says her mother, Wendy Burnett.
But regardless of who owns what, Eugenia Duke's mayo is at the center of it all. In fact, you'll be hard pressed to find a product with more devoted devotees.
Brides-to-be have called C.F. Sauer, requesting Duke's glass mayonnaise jars for flower arrangements at their weddings, even though the glass jars were phased out more than a decade ago, says Erin Hatcher, C.F. Sauer director of marketing.
One man even requested Duke's mayo jar to store his cremated remains… and C.F. Sauer obliged.
"Love letters from fans come in way of original paintings of jars with summer sandwiches and hydrangeas and Duke T-shirt designs with the Duke jar and logo," Hatcher says.
And it's not just the at-home sandwich makers and cooks who love Duke's. So do nationally renowned chefs, including Alex Stupak (Empellón in New York City), Edward Lee (601 Magnolia of Louisville, Ky., and "Master Chef" judge), Sean Brock, (McCrady's, Husk, and Minero in Charleston and host of Emmy-winning "The Mind of a Chef"), John Currence (City Grocery, Bouré, Big Bad Breakfast), and Vivian Howard (chef and farmer in North Carolina and star of the Emmy-winning "A Chef's Life").
"The reason I believe Duke's has such a passionate following is because it's such an authentic brand. It's rooted in the South, and it's never changed," Hatcher says.
That said, if you're not from around here — or don't subscribe to Southern Living, Garden & Gun, or one of the nation's top foodie magazines, you may be surprised by the fanaticism.
Don't worry. You're in good company.
"It's shocking to see what a big deal it is," says Laura McGinnis, the great-granddaughter of Eugenia Duke. McGinnis and her family moved to Charlotte from California in the 1990s. They didn't know about Duke's mayonnaise, as it wasn't on their grocery shelves out west. In fact, her grandma Eugenia, who McGinnis called Cush, never talked about her successful South Carolina business and her legacy.
McGinnis says, "It was a nonentity in her life."
However, thanks to several 100th anniversary celebrations, McGinnis and her family have gotten a strong dose of Duke's appreciation.
At a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Greenville for Duke Brands' move to their Falls Park Place headquarters, McGinnis was taken aback when she saw the platter of egg salad sandwiches.
"The crusts were cut off and the sandwiches were cut on the diagonal, and I thought, 'Oh my gosh, it was like being with Cush,'" she says. "That's what she did, serve foods like that, and she had done it her whole life."
It's Duke's or Nothing
Greenville chefs love Southern cooking, and rightfully so. This is South Carolina, after all. So it's no surprise that local chefs love to add the South's premier condiment — Duke's mayonnaise — to many of their recipes, whether it's deviled eggs or chocolate cake.
"Duke's mayonnaise really is the go-to duct tape in the kitchen," says Daniel Dobbs, executive chef at Roost.
Here's what local chefs say about Greenville's favorite son — er, mayo:
Anthony Gray | Chef/partner
Bacon Bros. Public House
We use Duke's mayonnaise in pimento cheese, deviled eggs, dressings, sauces, sandwich spreads — we use it all over the place.
I grew up in South Georgia, and my parents were more healthy eaters with Hellman's Light. The first time I got to try Duke's was my senior year in high school, and that's when I figured out what mayonnaise really was. I tasted it once, and there was no going back.
The quality and consistency is top-notch. It's not too sweet, not too savory, and you can do things with it and not worry that it will overpower like some other mayonnaise can.
Daniel Dobbs | Executive chef
I've been using Duke's since I started in kitchens when I was 16 years old. I grew up eating it at my best friend's parents' house. His mom lived by the stuff. That was the only option we had — Duke's or nothing.
At Roost, we use it in [our] crab cake mixture, ranch dressing, add-ons for burgers, sandwiches, hors d'oeuvres, and pasta salads. Duke's mayonnaise has many applications.
We probably go through four to six four-gallon buckets a week.
It has a little bit more of a sour flavor than the others — makes your lips pucker more. I like to dip my french fries and pieces of bacon just in Duke's. I've been known to eat it by the spoonful.
Sara Wilson | Owner/former "pretty good cook"
Brick Street Café
My chicken salad recipe uses Duke's mayonnaise. I really do like the flavor of Duke's mayonnaise, and once I had a restaurant in Greenville, I just thought it would be smart to use Duke's.
We use it in our tuna salad, egg salad, and, occasionally, I'll do a chocolate cake that has Duke's mayonnaise in place of oil. I also like to use mayonnaise if I'm doing a fish or chicken. You can coat the outside with Duke's and add some breadcrumbs and seasoning to it, and it adheres to it. Then you can bake it instead of frying it and still get a crisp.
We have halibut on the dinner menu, and we have really good potato chips. So we take Duke's mayonnaise and spread a thin layer over fresh halibut, no salt. Then we crunch up potato chips and put those on the outside. It gives it a salt flavor and a bit of crisp, and you bake it.
Also, if you are making homemade mashed potatoes and you want them to be nice and creamy, add a spoonful of Duke's mayonnaise, and it really makes them smooth.
Ren Bell | Manager
Northgate Soda Shop
You mean they make another mayonnaise?
I'm from the South and had to go all over the place in the military and they had Duke's mayonnaise nowhere. So I'd have to come back to South Carolina and take two gallons back with me. I'd give it to the mess sergeant and say, "If you're going to make me any sandwiches, you use Duke's mayonnaise."
We make chicken salad, tuna salad — all salads with Duke's mayo. And pimento cheese and any sandwich that comes with mayonnaise — that's what we use.
Customers from the South would know the difference. They think our burgers are the best around — we're in Southern Living with our pimento cheeseburger.
Rodney Freidank | Corporate chef
Duke's Mayo is truly one of the quintessential tastes of the American South. Our cuisine at Nose Dive is urban comfort with a strong influence of our Southern heritage. Our cuisine at Soby's is Southern with a twist. The culinary heritage at both restaurants couldn't be authentic without Duke's Mayo — not to mention we use only the best ingredients, and any Southerner knows Duke's is the best.
Nick Stathakis | Co-owner/operator
Stax's Original
We use Duke's mayonnaise in our coleslaw, potato salad, our casseroles — squash casserole and broccoli casserole. On Monday nights, we have chicken and broccoli casserole, using a recipe my grandma used to make for my brother and me, and she wasn't a Hellman's woman.
We've been in Greenville for 30 years, and we only use Duke's because it has a consistency in flavor and is a saucier product — not a sweet product. I don't like the sweetness of some other things, and I don't know if the potato salad would hold as well without it.

Looking ahead to 2020, the velocity seems to have slowed, though there's still plenty of "new" to anticipate.

The Thinking Lab on Migration & Integration focuses on one of the most crucial challenges currently faced by the European Union. Within one year, based on the diverse experiences Southern European countries and Germany have so far gathered, the Lab will deliver a genuine European perspective on migration and integration policy. The concept of "people on the move" rather than "refugees" or "migrants" remains the center of the debate.


Whatever your feelings are about the size of modern Navitimers (between 43mm and 48mm), Breitling's icon is without a doubt one of the definitive pilot's watches. Developed with, and for, the Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association (AOPA) during the early 1950s, the original reference 806 Navitimer allowed pilots to calculate critical information, such as airspeed, flight time, distance, and fuel consumption, all at a glance. This new limited edition Navitimer continues in that spirit with some modern updates and a new blue dial.
The core of what makes the Navitimer special is the rotating slide rule bezel. This feature was actually introduced in the Breitling Chronomat a full decade before the Navitimer was launched, but it was Breitling's close ties with the AOPA, made official by the association's logo right on the Navitimer's dial, that made it the envy of every squadron. It's this bezel that allows the above calculations to be made quickly and efficiently right on the wrist.
The Breitling Navitimer GMT Aurora Blue.
Now to the watch at hand. The Breitling Navitimer GMT Aurora Blue is based on the company's latest Navitimer GMT, a 48mm stainless steel model introduced in 2015. It differs from most other modern Navitimers in that it also indicates home time via a red-tipped hand. The GMT complication, first used by Breitling in 1968, was added to the Navitimer line in 2014, but is also currently offered in the Navitimer World, a watch powered by a Valjoux 7750 base movement. The Navitimer GMT on the other hand, is powered by a manufacture movement, Caliber B04, which is a COSC-certified automatic chronograph with a convenient quick-set function for the hour hand. It has a 70-hour power reserve as well.
The Aurora Blue is the most colorful version of the GMT yet. Previously this watch was available with a white dial or a black and white panda dial very reminiscent of that old ref. 806. Blue seems to be a common color for Breitling's limited editions. In 2013, Breitling introduced a very similar blue dial, also with a discreet sunburst finish, in a limited edition Navitimer 1461. That watch came with a blue leather strap, but this time Breitling has gone for a matching rubber strap instead.
Blue seems to be Breitling's go-to color for limited editions.
The Breitling Navitimer GMT Aurora Blue is limited to just 1,000 pieces and it is priced at $9,290.For more information, please visit Breitling's official website.

"Intimate Audrey": Why the Hepburn exhibition in Brussels is a must-see
"Intimate Audrey" is the name of the exhibition dreamed up by her son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer. Opening its doors to Brussels, the city in which Audrey Hepburn was born in 1929, the actress' life is charted through rare photographs, family objects and poignant, personal accounts, in an exhibition that tells of the woman, at once sensitive and loving, behind a true face of Hollywood.
By Manon Garrigues
Audrey Hepburn Family Archive
On May 4, 1929, just 90 years ago, Audrey Hepburn came into the world in Brussels. She would go on to become one of the most recognisable faces in film, and to marry actor Mel Ferrer, with whom she had a son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer. "Intimate Audrey" is his tender homage to the Audrey he knew at home, at once maternal, sensitive and socially engaged. Across 8,600 square feet, a collection of meticulously selected objects and photographs will be put on display, adorning the halls of the Vanderborght building in Brussels, tracing the life of Audrey Hepburn, from her debuts as a ballerina, to her meteoric rise to fame, more personal moments with Mel and Sam, and even her UNICEF campaigns. This exhibition is a rare lifting of the veil shrouding the life of the so revered star.
It's worth noting that all of the profits from ticket sales will be donated to EURORDIS - Rare Diseases Europe and to the Brugmann and Bordet hospitals in Brussels.

Democracy Day: Nigeria can achieve more – Nigerian Diasporas
Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation Worldwide (NIDOWW) says Nigeria can achieve more meaningful national growth through constitutional amendment in the country.
The Chairman of NIDO-Americas, Mr Obed Monago made this known in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Abuja.
Monago, who spoke on the backdrop of collective view points by NIDOWW marking Nigeria Democracy Day across various continents, said that Nigeria needed to restore its lost glory.
"I remember when Nigeria was member of non-allied nations Brazil, South Korea, among others but where are we now? we can achieve what we want to achieve through constitutional amendment.
"The 1999 Constitution can be amended; we can go to unlimited number of amendments to get what we deserve and at the end, discard what do not apply.
"It is the will to practice democracy that is important, it is not what is written on the pages of paper, but the will to change that is imperative.
"Constitutional amendment as it pertains diaspora, we support it, Section 77, subsection 2 should be amended to allow diasporas organise themselves into political apparatus or organisation and vote for themselves.
"When we vote for ourselves and have representatives, it makes diaspora voting rights more credible, but voting same political elites from here to rule us in National Assembly will make less impact," he said.
He also said that Section 315, subsection 5(a) on the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) should also be amended or omitted from the Constitution, to stand alone as an Act.
According to him, constitutional amendment is carried out in countries like the U.S. where Nigeria borrowed its leaf from, saying Nigeria's political landscape will improve if that is done.
"We adopted three tiers of government, but it is very weak, if we can strengthen them to become independent of one another, it will give them autonomy to have checks and balances.
"It will also promote respect for the Rule of Law and help to overhaul adherence to rules and regulations that will guide against offenses," he said.
He explained that it had become necessary for Nigerians in the Diaspora to organise themselves and vote their representatives during election, to represent their interests at the green chamber.
He noted that doing so would also boost Nigeria's economic growth and Foreign Direct Investments.
"The concept of Diasporas staying abroad and there is no structure in place to vote and be voted for, will be subsumed and basically have no impact.
"I do not support that, but if that is what we get, then let us get it and build on it to be in a right position to vote as Nigerians in the Diaspora," Monago said.
NIDOWW comprised Nigerians in Diaspora organisations chapter in Europe, Americas, Asia, Oceania and Africa, which harnessed and galvanised professional and financial resources of Nigerian citizens across continents to promote their fatherland. (NAN)

Early exit for Rebula, Steyn at US Amateurs
Jovan Rebula
Published on August 12, 2020 | Leave a response
South African duo Jovan Rebula and Marco Steyn have missed the cut after two rounds of strokeplay at the 120th US Amateur Championship, hosted at Bandon Dunes Golf Resort.
In what proved to be quite a tricky battle for many players at the Bandon Dunes and Bandon Trails golf courses, Rebula's hopes of qualifying for the matchplay stage of the event ended with rounds of 78 and 75 – finishing on a disappointing 10 over par.
READ: Canada to host 2024 Presidents Cup
Rebula, who recently returned to Auburn University in Alabama for a fifth year of college golf, rolled in three birdies during his second round but suffered blows with four bogeys and a nasty double-bogey on the par-four 16th.
Steyn, on the other hand, finished his quest for a spot in the matchplay with rounds of 75 and 76 after playing the Bandon Trails course on Thursday.
It meant he could he only manage an eight over par for the event, which is also far from his best with the cut set at two over.

Artist Maude White combines her gorgeous illustrative skills with intricate paper cutting expertise to create incredible paper work creations. A self-taught artist, she credits her Waldorf education and artistic family for encouraging her to create.
Using an X-Acto knife she cuts each piece by hand slicing away the negative space to make elegant figures with fantastic hidden scenes and stories laced into the designs. "It may sound weird, but I love to cut. I just enjoy the process," she said in an interview.
White's paper cutting technique is almost unbelievable—the fine lines and elaborate detail are incredibly impressive. What gives these pieces their charm, though, are the whimsical drawings and ornamental designs. They would be lovely drawn on paper, but the delicacy of the paper, the cast shadows, and the ability to look through the empty spaces make these pieces captivating.
This incredibly detailed newspaper art or "lace newspapers" are the work of Canadian paper artist Myriam Dion. Using an Exacto knife and a surgeon's precision, Dion creates intricate lacey shapes using existing text images from newspapers, cutting out white space and leaving some of the paper image in tact. The results are beautiful new images that have been completely transformed through Dion's skilled paper cutting and fine attention to detail. She creates other deconstructive work, like her ornate burned photograph series.
Massive, glowing webs of geometric gems climb the walls, successfully controlling the behavior of early afternoon light—while soaking the empty surfaces of the space with gentle washes of color. It's only upon close inspection that the pieces reveal themselves to be painstakingly handcrafted, light-as-a-feather paper sculptures by Brooklyn-based artist Kirsten Hassenfeld. She applies her sharp paper craft skill set to creating fanciful, (if not slightly frivolous) site-specific works that command presence, but in reality are quite ephemeral. A nice study of pure form, movement and spatial composition.

Biografia
Figlio primogenito di Francesco Contarini, detto il Grande, e di Filippa Paleologa, aveva due fratelli, Panfilo e Riccardo, e fratellastri nati da un secondo matrimonio del padre con Teodora Paleologina.

Pietro Bembo così lo descrive: "aveva il Contarino la persona alta e vivida e soda: le forze possenti e ampie e poco meno che insuperabili: l'animo prudente e di tutte le grandi cose capace".

Intraprese la carriera militare al servizio della Serenissima Repubblica di Venezia, fu capitano a Modone, in Grecia. Nel 1495, nell'ambito della prima calata dei francesi in Italia, fu inviato in soccorso dei duchi di Milano in qualità di provveditore degli stradioti della Serenissima, col compito di contrastare le truppe del duca Luigi d'Orleans che aveva occupato Novara e minacciava la conquista del ducato. Il 21 giugno con 635 stradiotti entrò a Milano, dove gli vennero incontro sulla piazza i duchi Ludovico Sforza e Beatrice d'Este con tutta la corte, i quali ebbero piacere di veder correre gli stradioti per la piazza con le lance e le mazze di ferro, "con gran piacer dil populo", e fecero "gran carezze" a Bernardo. Nel barco del castello trovarono poi preparate delle tavole con vivande offerte per loro.

Bernardo alloggiò in casa dell'ambasciatore veneziano e la sera seguente partì per andare al campo di Vigevano, sotto una pioggia dirotta. Qui ricevette la visita, il 27 giugno, della duchessa Beatrice, venuta per incitare Galeazzo Sanseverino e gli altri capitani a muovere contro il duca d'Orléans. Egli è l'unica fonte esistente per questo evento, altrimenti sconosciuto, che fu raccolto dal Sanudo:

Insieme al capitano generale milanese Galeazzo Sanseverino, egli riuscì a ricacciare indietro le forze francesi dell'Orléans, che si chiusero dentro Novara. Spostatosi il campo a Cassolnovo, possesso diretto di Beatrice, il primo di luglio, in seguito ad una scaramuccia coi nemici, gli stradiotti uccisero alcuni francesi e ne portarono le teste "a presentar al capetanio e alla Duchessa", la quale in quel tempo alloggiava a Vigevano, e furono ricompensati con un ducato per ognuna.

Tra veneziani e milanesi non correva però buon sangue: l'opinione comune era - a detta di Malipiero - che la Serenissima avrebbe dovuto ordinare a Bernardo di "tagiar a pezzi el duca Lodovigho e 'l Duca Hercule de Ferrara". Secondo Pietro Bembo, Bernardo stesso si sarebbe offerto di assassinare Ludovico per porre fine alla sua doppiezza. Questo perché, nel settembre del 1495, Ludovico aveva dato ordine d'impedire alle truppe veneziane di varcare il Ticino e dunque rimpatriare nella Repubblica, lasciandole senza rifornimenti e mezzi. Il piano del Contarini non ebbe alcuna implementazione sia per la prudenza dei suoi colleghi - Melchiorre Trevisan e Luca Pisani -  sia perché nell'ottobre 1495 Venezia aveva spostato nel cremasco e nel bergamasco un contingente di quasi 10.000 uomini, minacciando tra le righe Ludovico d'invasione nel caso non avesse rilasciato i suoi soldati ancora bloccati nel Ducato.

Dopo la liberazione di Novara e la firma della pace di Vercelli, con cui si concluse la guerra, Bernardo fu inviato in Calabria in soccorso di re Ferrandino d'Aragona, impegnato a liberare il regno di Napoli le ultime roccaforti ancora in mano ai francesi. Qui morì, come lo stesso re, per causa dell'epidemia di malaria che in quei mesi imperversava, il 10 agosto 1496. Il comando degli stradioti venne affidato in interim al fratellastro di Bernardo, Paolo.

Non si sposò e non lasciò discendenza.

The public offering price of a share of common stock together with a Series E warrant to purchase one share of common stock was $4.00. The public offering price of a share of Series C Preferred Stock, each of which is convertible into 2,500 shares of Common Stock, together with a Series E warrant to purchase 2,500 shares of common stock was $10,000. The Series E warrants have an exercise price of $4.00 per share and are exercisable until July 31, 2023. Gross offering proceeds to the Company were $16.56 million, with net proceeds to the Company of approximately $14.9 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and related offering expenses

CLR 131 Supply
On August 7, 2018, the Company was informed by Centre for Probe Development and Commercialization ("CPDC"), the Company's sole supplier of CLR 131, that it is subject to an Import Alert 66-40 (the "Import Alert") by the United States Food and Drug Administration ("FDA"). While the basis for the Import Alert was not related to CLR 131, or CPDC's production facility associated with CLR 131, CPDC informed the Company on August 8, 2018 that CPDC would not be able to supply CLR 131 to the Company until the Import Alert is lifted or alternative agreements are reached with the FDA. The Company intends to work with CPDC to resolve this issue as soon as practical. As a result of the supply disruption, the Company expects delays in enrollment in its ongoing clinical trials. At this time, the Company is not able to assess the extent of the delays or what impact the supply disruption will have on the Company, but the inability of CPDC to supply CLR 131 on a prolonged basis would result in further delayed patient enrollment in current and planned clinical trials for CLR 131.

Q: Opening software keyboard on Android Flash 10.1 I'm developing a mobile Flash application (not an AIR app) running in the browser. According to Adobe:

Flash Player 10.1 provides support for
  use of native device virtual keyboards
  with TextField support if no physical
  keyboard is detected. A virtual
  keyboard is automatically raised and
  lowered in response to focus changes
  on text fields when editing text on
  mobile devices supporting a virtual
  keyboard to enable unobstructed and
  intuitive text editing. The focused
  text field is centered in the visible
  region of the page and appropriately
  zoomed/scrolled to ensure it is not
  obscured by the virtual keyboard. Upon
  screen rotation, incoming calls, or
  other system events, any already
  existing text input is retained. The
  virtual keyboard works with TextField
  but does not currently work with the
  Text Layout Framework or other Flash
  Text Engine text.

I'm listening for a tap event (which works) that sets stage.focus = input; which also is working. However, the virtual keyboard is not triggered.
I am testing on an HTC Evo.

A: You could try to make a hidden TextField. Then dispatch an even to it. Maybe the internal Flash Player is listening to a event of the TextField(I doubt it but it is worth a try). You could also force the Flash Player to get focus on a textfield.
dispatchEvent(new FocusEvent(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, true, false));
You can also try to fire a click event on it if this isn't working.
Sorry that I can't test myself. At the moment I don't have a test phone or emulator.
