U.S. Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester saw demonstrations of how DHSS’ Delaware Treatment and Referral Network and the Department of State’s Prescription Monitoring Program are being used to respond to Delaware’s opioid epidemic. Secretary Walker welcomed the congresswoman to the Holloway Campus on Sept. 6 and thanked her as a member of Delaware’s congressional delegation for $5.8 million in new CDC funding for the state to help fight the epidemic.
Elizabeth Romero, director of DHSS’ Division of Substance Abuse and Mental, said under the Delaware Treatment and Referral Network, health care professionals have made 17,000 referrals to behavioral health providers in the first year of the online referral system. The real-time referral allow health care professionals to know if their patient will be accepted for addiction or mental illness treatment, typically in less than hour. Beyond the almost-immediate connection to care, Romero said DSAMH “is using our data to figure out if our system needs help.” Rep. Blunt Rochester said that use of technology is a game-changer for people in crisis.
David Mangler, director of the Division of Professional Regulation in the Department of State, said there are 8,600 registered users of the PMP. Delaware is also among 35 states that are part of a data-sharing hub. The result is more than 8 million data requests per month, Mangler said.
Jason Slavoski, PMP administrator, said those who use the PMP – physicians, pharmacies and prescriber delegates – can see an overdose risk score for each patient and guidance on how to use the scores. Rep. Blunt Rochester said this is important work to reduce the number of Delawareans at risk for overdose.

Audrey An explores the notion of home, where furniture in domestic spaces becomes a repository for physical remnants of accumulated memories, shaping and reflecting one's identity. Drawing inspiration from Korean historical furniture, artifacts, and cross-cultural iconographies, in "Wishful Things”, An creates hypothetical spaces that embrace emotional states of oscillation between cultures, offering a venue for reflection and self-personification through inanimate-objects.
An explores the condition of being a 1.5 generation Korean-American, an ‘in-betweener’ who is not quite first or second generation enough. Through wishful object-making and their curation, she examines this in-betweenness, the embodiment of emotional oscillation to seek balance. Similarly to the way she moves fluidly between the two languages she speaks, An approaches her studio practice as a form of ‘code-switching’ between physical and digital work, as well as between clay and other materials such as plastic, wood, and foam. Her practice also navigates the spectrum between the analog handling of clay and digital fabrication methodologies, creating multifaceted visual renderings of objects noting on how we often remember things: sometimes exaggerated, somewhat fabricated, and glitched in low-resolution. These objects then come together as physical collages of organic and mechanized tension reflecting the complex and fragmented, but essentially harmonious feelings that transcend the cultural oscillations.
2022-2024 Ceramics Program Artist In Residence Audrey An’s creative research revolves around the notion of applying digital technologies to ceramics from the perspective of ‘convergence,’ whether it be cultural, technological, or interdisciplinary. She earned her BFA and Art History Minor from New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, an MFA from Penn State University, and was a post-baccalaureate student at Colorado State University. Audrey has participated in artist residency programs at Haystack Mountain School of Crafts (Deer Isle, ME), Watershed Center for the Ceramic Arts (Newcastle, ME) and was selected as Ceramics Monthly 2023 Emerging Artist.
2020 McLaren Speedtail
$2,012,500 USD | Sold
o Stunningly finished in bespoke McLaren Special Operations (MSO) Liquid Blue Silver over blue and gray full aniline leather
o The legacy of McLaren’s seminal F1 supercar reimagined for the 21st century
Number 69 of 106 individually specified examples produced
o Optioned with tinted carbon-fiber weave, exquisite Thin Ply Technology carbon-fiber details, and polished brightwork
o Indicating just 54 miles at time of cataloguing
In 2020, McLaren dramatically rekindled the spirit of its seminal F1 supercar with the launch of the futuristic Speedtail, an exclusive machine at the leading edge of 21st-century hypercar performance that, like its predecessor, was limited to only 106 units.
As with the F1, the Speedtail is built around a lightweight carbon-fiber tub and features the same three-person seating configuration, with the driver in the center, as well as vertical dihedral doors. The similarities are clear, but advances in technology over the past three decades abound.
This is particularly true of the Speedtail’s exhilarating hybrid powertrain. The 723-horsepower 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 is a thoughtful evolution of the McLaren P1’s engine, featuring a revised piston design and enhanced cylinder-head cooling. The Speedtail’s electric motor and battery, meanwhile, were both developed by McLaren’s Formula E technology group. The motor smooths out power delivery at low engine speeds, providing an additional 312 horsepower for a total output of 1,035 horsepower, and a jaw-dropping top speed of 250 mph. The model’s dielectric-cooled and insulated battery offers yet another paradigm of innovation, having been hailed at its launch as the most power-dense unit ever fitted to a production vehicle.
The model’s sleek, elongated bodywork, central driving position, adjustable multi-link suspension, and active aerodynamic systems epitomize McLaren’s focus on delivering an unforgettable drive. Altogether, these remarkable elements expertly fuse design and technology to produce an experience unlike anything else on the road. Those who crave even more excitement can explore the Speedtail’s “Velocity Mode,” which upon activation lowers the suspension by 1.4 inches, changes the aerovane configuration, and retracts the side-view cameras, thereby streamlining the car’s silhouette for enhanced stability at high speeds.
All told, the Speedtail is the fastest, most aerodynamic, and most technologically advanced McLaren ever made, pushing the frontier of what is possible in a road car.
The Speedtail was only made available to customers pre-selected by McLaren, and this particular example—number 69—is in impeccable, as-new condition throughout, having been driven a mere 54 miles by the time of cataloguing. Remarkably, the interior retains some of the protective plastic and wrappings. As shown on its Carfax report, all servicing and inspections to date have been completed exclusively by authorized McLaren facilities in West Palm Beach Florida.
Delivered new via McLaren—The Collection of Coral Gables in August 2020, as noted on its manufacturer statement of origin, the unique appeal of Speedtail number 69 comes through in its striking, bespoke color combination of Liquid Blue Silver paint over Rich Blue and Gray full aniline leather upholstery. The car’s accompanying sales order shows an original sticker price of £2.097 million (~$2.726 million), which included £347,750 (~$452,075) in bespoke optional equipment. (Currency conversions are approximate and calculated using a historical mid-market exchange rate from December 2019.)
An impressive selection of polished Zircon trim, aluminum, titanium, and carbon-fiber flourishes augment the car’s unique appeal. Within its futuristic cabin, the sumptuous two-tone full aniline leather extends beyond the seats to the headliner, kick panels, and even the door sills, with bespoke stitching and quilting to elevate the presentation. Of particular mention among the array of exquisite trim is the Thin Ply Technology (TPT) carbon-fiber applied to the steering wheel and ceiling-mounted, switchgear console. This option alone, whose intricate marbled patterning creates a stunning jewel-like effect, added £50,000 (~$65,000) to the sticker price.
The calipers were custom-specified in Liquid Blue Silver and are housed within 10-spoke Diamond Cut lightweight wheels. Concealing those at the front axle are distinctive, aerodynamic “speed covers” fashioned of 1,000-strand, exposed, gloss carbon fiber perfectly color-matched to the car's ground effects, which subtly contrast with the rest of the beautiful bodywork. The car’s exterior badging is handsomely rendered in machined aluminum, as is most of its elegant brightwork. The exhaust, neatly integrated into the rear diffuser and nearly hidden from view, is finished in natural Titanium.
This Speedtail is accompanied by a car cover, a chassis-numbered tool kit, wireless base charger, and a factory luggage case. Notably, it will be sold under a Manufacturer Statement of Origin and is eligible for road use in the United States under the “show or display” federal exemption.
It is safe to say that the revolutionary Speedtail’s saga is only beginning; like its predecessor, the F1, the Speedtail is predicted to capture the public’s attention for decades to come. It is an engineering triumph combining the best of McLaren’s past with extraordinary technology of the present. This exceptional example offers a rare opportunity to partake in the most advanced roadgoing vehicle McLaren has built to date. Standing out amongst its incredibly rare brethren, Speedtail number 69 features a staggering number of options, which amount to the highest manufacturer suggested retail price encountered yet by RM Sotheby’s for this model and further indicates the obsessive attention to detail put forth to create such a truly spectacular machine.
Its moment in the spotlight has just begun.
