The Vanguard Knights girls basketball team got off to a sluggish start but wound up getting things together late in the second half of Friday's 54-30 blowout win over Lake City Columbia in the District 4-7A title game at Vanguard High School.
Nasia Powell led the way with 24 points, three rebounds, three steals and two assists, while Essence Bell added 10 points, eight rebounds, five assists and three steals for the Knights whose district title was their first since 2009.
Vanguard trailed the Tigers 14-13 at the end of the first quarter as its offense sputtered, leading to a timeout by VHS head coach Katie Scott.
A basket by Shakira Preston was Vanguard's first of the second quarter and it didn't come until just over three minutes left in the half.
Preston's bucket gave the Knights a 15-14 lead, and on the ensuing possession, Powell drove the length of the floor then faked a pass outside and tucked the ball right under the reach of Autiona Williams for a layup to put the Knights up 17-14.
Vanguard then went on a 14-0 run in the third quarter after taking a 23-14 halftime lead.
"We knew what we came to do and we weren't going to lay down," Scott said.
"Columbia tried to slow the game down a bit and once we got a lead, we decided to slow it down a bit and give them a taste of their own game."
The Knights remained perfect in the district (10-0) and improved to 18-8 overall on the season.
Friday's win sets up a rematch at home on Thursday at 7 p.m. against Middleburg in the Class 7A, Region 1 quarterfinals. The Broncos lost to Ponte Vedra Nease on Thursday in the District 7A-3 championship game. Columbia (20-8) will travel to Nease on Thursday night.
Thursday's regional quarterfinal at Jim Haley Court will feature a rematch between Vanguard and Middleburg after the Broncos eliminated the Knights in the regional quarterfinals two years ago.
"Yea but they gotta come to us this time," Scott said. "We went to them two years ago, and lost to them by two points in Middleburg (60-58) and it was a rough environment so we are looking for payback. I mean the girls still have that same hunger that we gave against Forest (a 63-22 rout in the district semifinals on Wednesday), tonight's win obviously, and now they want revenge on our home court against Middleburg."
Preston finished with nine points and four rebounds, Jakecea Rodriguez scored six points, and Kihiley Wilson tallied four points for the Knights.

In this part, we'll implement the new challenge in level 2: opening a door with a key. Start by opening the level 2 scene, which already contains the setup and prefabs.
6. Doors & Keys
1. Add a HasKey variable
When the player reaches a door, we'll need to check if they have a key. For this purpose, we'll use a boolean (true / false) variable on the player.
- Select the Player object
- Add a new boolean object variable called HasKey, default to false
- Apply the changes to the prefab so other players share this variable
2. Create the key flow machine
When the player collides with the key in the scene, the HasKey variable should become true, and the key should disappear.
- Select the Key object
- Add a new flow machine
- Create a new macro for it called Key
- Apply the changes to the prefab
The graph is really simple now that we can reuse our On Collision With macro:
Destroy is located under Codebase > Unity Engine > Game Object. It's important to note that unlike most functions, this one does not automatically take Self as its target, which is why we must explicitly connect a Self unit.
3. Create the door flow machine
Here we go again:
- Select the Door object
- Add a new flow machine
- Create a new macro for it called Door
- Apply the changes to the prefab
In the graph, we'll check the HasKey variable on the player. If the key is found, we disable the box collider on the door and change its sprite to look open. If the key is missing, we just output a message to the console for debug.
- Set Enabled is located under Codebase > Unity Engine > Box Collider 2D
- Set Sprite is located under Codebase > Unity Engine > Sprite Renderer
- Log is located under Codebase > Unity Engine > Debug
If you test your game now, the door should open only if you've grabbed the key:
4. Display the key in the HUD
The last thing we have to do is to handle the HUD display for the key.
When the player grabs the key, the empty key icon should become filled.
If there is no key in the scene, the key icon should be hidden altogether.
- Open the HUD scene
- Select the Key object under HUD > Row
- Add a new flow machine
- Switch its source to Embed
We switch the machine's source to Embed because we will only ever use this graph once, in the HUD scene. In other words, there is no need to create a reusable macro because the HUD is not a prefab. You can learn more about machine sources and prefab restrictions in the manual here.
To hide the key icon if no key exists in the scene, we can set the game object to inactive if there are no game objects tagged with Key:
- Find With Tag and Set Active are located under Codebase > Unity Engine > Game Object
- Null Check is located under Nulls
To change the sprite depending on whether or not the player has the key, we need to check the HasKey variable on the Playerobject:
You can find the sprites HudKeyFull and HudKeyEmpty under Sprites / HUD.
There is a small performance problem with our graph: Find With Tag is known to be a bit slow. It's not an issue if we only use it once on Start, but since we're calling it every frame in Update, it would be ideal to use a faster way to find the player. This is slightly premature optimization (our game would run perfectly fine with Find With Tag), but we'll show it for the sake of teaching "best practices".
We'll use a application variable called Player and holds a reference to the player game object. It will get automatically created by the player graph, so we won't need to set it up in every level manually. This is a simple implementation of the "singleton" pattern: because we know there's always only 1 player in the game, it's safe to assign its instance to an application variable.
- Save the HUD scene
- Open the PlayerController flow macro
- Add this group of units somewhere in your graph:
Now that this is done, we can go back to our HUD key graph and replace Find With Tag by Get Application Variable:
There is a small error in the above screenshot. The variable name should be HasKey, not Key!
That's it! Now, if you test your game, you should see the key sprite change in the HUD:
In this part, we will load a head-up display (HUD) on top of our game view.
In this part, we will add health and damage to our player.

Arts + Advocacy Blog: Weaving Political Action into the Healing Arts
Written by Jasmine Sinclair Wilson
Last week, we discussed the Equal Justice Initiative's Legacy Museum and National Memorial for Peace and Justice. This journey to Montgomery, Alabama taught us about EJI's efforts to educate the world about lynching, Jim Crow laws, and slavery. As institutions committed to memory and justice, they invoke conversation surrounding these issues and exemplify the role of the arts in challenging those who try to erase and ignore the past. This week's post will carry on the theme of memory in the arts by highlighting one of the largest community art projects in the world: The AIDS Memorial Quilt and its organization, the NAMES Project Foundation.
In the 1970s, AIDS and LGBT rights activist Cleve Jones was living in San Francisco while working under his mentor Harvey Milk—a lead gay rights activist in the historic Castro neighborhood. In 1977, Milk achieved a position on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and worked alongside liberal Mayor George Moscone. While Milk and Moscone worked to abolish anti-sodomy laws in San Francisco and advocate for gay right issues, they faced opposition from Supervisor Dan White "who was troubled by what he perceived as a breakdown in traditional values and a growing tolerance of homosexuality." After a year in office, White resigned from his position due to a salary he believed "wasn't enough to feed his family." He returned to be reappointed, believing Milk and Moscone were "driving his city downhill," but Moscone refused to give White his job back.
On November 27, 1978 White entered City Hall with a loaded gun and assassinated Moscone and Milk before turning himself in at the police station. Cleve Jones, who was in the building during the shooting, was deeply impacted by the loss of his mentor: "I knew by the end of the day that that was the single most important moment of my life, and it was the single most important thing that happened to me." In 1985, Jones tested positive for HIV. This news paired with the Reagan Administration's utter apathy surrounding the HIV/AIDS crisis deeply distressed Jones and countless others. That same year, Jones was struck by news related to HIV/AIDS death tolls in San Francisco; in an interview with Hello Mr. magazine, he states how he lost "about 2,000 men for over a decade" in his neighborhood.
Though these depressing numbers and lack of governmental action plagued his community, Jones found strength in organizing an annual candlelight march for Milk and Moscone. He took a San Francisco newspaper headline about AIDS deaths totaling over 1000 and used it to galvanize others to take action. For the 1985 march, he asked participants to write down the names of their loved ones who had died of AIDS. Jones provided markers and poster boards and echoed his directions through Milk's old bullhorn. Each of the participants placed a placard with the first and last name of their late loved ones on the side of the Reagan administration's Health and Human Services West Coast Office building. As an act of political protest, these placards combatted the administration's rejection of truth and neglect of its communities. Seeing these names in mass numbers on the wall revealed the importance of going beyond epidemic statistics to truly humanize those affected by HIV/AIDS, while creating a visual voice through the arts. Because the wall resembled a patchwork quilt, it inspired Jones to create the AIDS Memorial Quilt and establish the NAMES Project Foundation as the organization committed to preserving and exhibiting it.
In 1987, the Foundation became an internationally recognized 501(c)(3) organization and established its first headquarters in San Francisco. People living in highly affected HIV/AIDS cities—Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, San Francisco, and Washington, DC—each sent in patches with the names of loved ones who died of HIV/AIDS. Mirroring the size of a grave, each panel of fabric is measured at three by six feet. On October 11, 1987, almost ten years after Cleve Jones lost Milk and Moscone, the quilt had grown to 1,920 panels and was first showcased on the National Mall in Washington D.C during the second National March on Washington for Gay and Lesbian Rights. With over half a million people visiting the quilt in its first week, it quickly gained recognition and travelled to 20 cities over 4 months, raising "more than $500,000 for hundreds of AIDS service organizations."
The Quilt continued to grow and became a rallying point to challenge prejudices and homophobic attitudes towards the gay community and to honor those who had died of HIV/AIDS. Quilt contributors used various fabrics and materials including "feather boas, lace, leather, love letters, cowboy boots, buttons and bows, paintings, photographs, fishnet, and fur." These art materials were tangible tokens for the healing power behind the quilt. It reached new heights in 1989 upon receiving a nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize and by 1992, the Quilt included panels from every US state as well as 28 other countries. The NAMES Project Foundation was also invited to march with the quilt during President Bill Clinton's inaugural parade in 1993.
The Quilt ultimately moved beyond its birthplace in San Francisco to build a community of people who supported its mission: "To preserve, care for, and use the AIDS Memorial Quilt to foster healing, heighten awareness, and inspire action in the struggle against HIV and AIDS." This mission carries on today at the Names Project Foundation headquarters here in Atlanta, which was established in 2002. The Quilt currently includes "49,000 panels, dedicated to over 96,000 individuals" and weighs 54-tons. The NAMES Project Foundation encompasses 10 US chapters and 11 international affiliates; its current initiatives include the "Call My Name" project, a weekly panel-making workshop for African American women to create panels for those who they have lost to HIV/AIDS. It also offers national programming to build HIV/AIDS awareness for youth, students at Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and faith-based institutions.
Between these impactful programs and awareness efforts, the Names Project Foundation stands as an international advocate for change and for those in need of healing. Cleve Jones continues to spread his message to communities throughout the world through his public speaking efforts and memoir When We Rise. Similar to the Legacy Museum and National Memorial for Peace and Justice, the AIDS Memorial Quilt embodies the vital importance of preserving memory to spur political action. It reveals the ways we are connected while challenging us to continue fighting for equality. For those interested in seeing the quilt, check out the Atlanta History Center before June 30 and also take a look at the display list.

It's Official
San Francisco Mayor London Breed, a Democrat who just got sworn in as San Francisco's mayor on Wednesday, said in an interview Friday that the city's streets are flooded with homeless excrement.
"There is more feces on the sidewalks than I've ever seen growing up here," Breed told KNTV. "That is a huge problem, and we are not just talking about from dogs — we're talking about from humans."
Breed added that homeless advocacy groups which receive city government funds should teach the homeless "to clean up after themselves."
NBC Bay Area journalists released a report in February that surveyed 153 blocks in downtown San Francisco, finding more than 300 piles of fecal matter and 100 drug needles on the streets in that area.
The shocking report brought so much attention to the filth on the city streets that one person created a website displaying an interactive poop map to shed light on homelessness in San Francisco.

Ever since we can remember, Living Room has participated in AIDS Walk Atlanta & 5K Run. In addition to being an event to raise funds for crucial HIV/AIDS service organizations in the city (which it is), AIDS Walk Atlanta is a visible testament to our city's dedication to ending HIV/AIDS.
This year, we want to extend a BIG thanks to our sub-teams, Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Church, H.Y.P.E 2 Empower, The Scheller College of Business, and the General Board of Global Ministries, all of whom decided to raise funds for Living Room exclusively. Together, we've hit some pretty incredible milestones.
What You've Accomplished This Year
This year, you've raised over $20,000 across all teams–a 56 percent increase from last year! To put this in the context of our mission, you've helped raise over 570 nights of emergency lodging. This program, which provides immediate housing options for people living with HIV, is often the critical first step toward long-term, stable housing. In fact, as the weather becomes colder, need and funding for this program become increasingly urgent.
Thank you so much for what you've made possible!
There's Still Time to Donate!
If you haven't had a chance to support our Team or would like to make another donation, please do!

It's a well-known fact that China is a crucial market for Mercedes and Ferrari, along with all the other top automotive brands – especially those in the prestige sector, where Pirelli is the world leader. So there's no great mystery as to why the result of the Chinese Grand Prix takes on a significance that goes beyond just the sport itself, as well as providing entertainment for all the local fans who flock to the circuit and also watch the race on television.
Ferrari has won four times in China: in 2004 with Rubens Barrichello when Shanghai made its debut, in 2006 with Michael Schumacher, in 2007 with Kimi Raikkonen, and in 2013 with Fernando Alonso. Now we have the prospect of a Scuderia that looks extremely competitive again after it dominated the last grand prix in Bahrain – at least until Sebastian Vettel made a mistake and Charles Leclerc suffered a technical problem.
The Shanghai circuit consists of a series of straights – which means very high speeds – and a wide variety of corners, all of which add up to a fascinating technical challenge. And it's exactly in those big corners that Formula 1 finds its maximum performance. Knowing that they can be even braver in the corners this year, the drivers are pushing harder – thanks to higher levels of grip offered by the 2019 tyres, which feature new compounds and constructions. This year's Pirelli F1 tyres provide more consistency and durability, allowing the driver to focus exclusively on the main task: pushing hard, attacking, braking as late as possible, then getting onto the power as quickly as possible.
In Bahrain last month the hardest tyres in the P Zero range were selected: C1 as the White hard tyre, C2 as the Yellow medium and C3 as the Red soft (the colours seen at every race this year). In China, the selection comes right from the middle of the range: C2, C3, and C4 for the hard, medium, and soft choices respectively.
This different selection could mean that there's a slight shake up in the competitive order. Another key element will be the weather: in 15 years of racing at Shanghai there have been hot and cold weekends, as well as rain. These cooler temperatures also contribute to a particularly complex set of technical parameters. But one thing is for sure: as has been the case during the last two years as well, all the indications suggest that we will see a very rapid Chinese Grand Prix. The emotion as well as the expectation will be high. Especially if there's a red car in front…

TOKYO — The police in Japan are investigating telephoned death threats to the United States ambassador, Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of President John F. Kennedy, and to an American diplomat in Okinawa, Japanese and international news agencies reported on Wednesday.
The reports came as Michelle Obama, the first lady, arrived in Japan on her first visit to the country, and as Ambassador Kennedy, together with former President Bill Clinton, appeared with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe at a Tokyo symposium on the legacy of Ambassador Kennedy's father, who was assassinated in November 1963 when she was 6 years old.
Concern about the security of American diplomats in Asia was heightened a few weeks ago when the United States ambassador to South Korea, Mark Lippert, was slashed by a knife-wielding assailant in Seoul.
Responding to the reported death threats, the State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, said Wednesday in a statement: "We take any threats to U.S. diplomats seriously. We take every step possible to protect our personnel. We are working with the Japanese government to ensure the necessary measures are in place. We will not comment on the specific details of any threats or the steps we take to address them."
The reports said that both Ambassador Kennedy and Alfred Magleby, the United States consul-general in Okinawa, the southern island where the United States maintains a large military presence, had been the objects of death threats in telephone calls last month. It was not clear why the threats had not been made public earlier.
The accounts included a report by The Asahi Shimbun, a major Japanese newspaper, that said the United States Embassy had received calls from an English-speaking male, who was quoted as saying "I will kill Ambassador Kennedy." The report gave no attribution to its source. Embassy officials could not be reached for comment on Wednesday night.
The visit to Japan by Mrs. Obama, who has Secret Service protection, is part of an Asia tour meant to emphasize the importance of girls' education. She is scheduled to depart on Friday for Cambodia.
Ambassador Kennedy, who took up her post in late 2013, is widely admired in Japan, where her father is idolized, although she has ruffled some sensitivities.
A year ago she caused a mild uproar in the country by expressing concern about the traditional dolphin hunt in the Japanese town of Taiji, calling it inhumane. Under her tenure, the United States Embassy also criticized Mr. Abe for visiting a war shrine that other Asian countries view as a symbol of Japan's imperialist past.

-By Sarah S.
The topic of outsourcing tends to bring up mixed feelings in a discussion. But it's been going on since the early 90's, starting with manufacturing companies that made clothing and other consumer products. During those times outsourcing these types of jobs definitely raised some concerns. But at that time these types of jobs were considered undesirable because of their manual labor element. But today outsourcing is in the middle of a transformation. Millions of customer service, IT, and sales jobs are beening outsourced to India and the Philippines.
Most American's would tell you that outsourcing isn't good for the country or that it's taking jobs away from the American people and it should stop. But this is just the beginning. Outsourcing is increasing and there is nothing we can do about it. Or can we? We need to look at the outsourcing debate differently. The solution is not to stop outsourcing; this doesn't make sense for big corporations that can employ cheaper labor in India compared to the US.
The first step is to accept our fate that our market is turning into a global one. And that one day that's all the world will be, one big global market. The solution lies in the availability of talent. The major reason which has led to US corporations outsourcing white-collar jobs is because of the cost and talent. Over the past few years the education systems of other countries have begun to produce students of a level comparable to the US. Now you have an educated workforce at lower salaries, which is now where the jobs are going. In other words people have become the competitive advantage, globally.
We need to redirect our energy and use it to improve our education system and to increase innovation. Obama has mentioned tax breaks for research and development to promote innovation in America to keep us competitive. According to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, in 2009 US ranked 17th place in level of education out of 65 countries that participated. Some of the countries that were right ahead of us were Iceland, Estonia, Poland, Switzerland and Norway. Some of the countries that were right behind us were Sweden, Germany, Ireland, Denmark, and Hungary. The top five were China, Korea, Finland, Singapore, and Canada.
As far as my own experience with outsourcing, it would have to be my experience as a customer. In the late 90's I noticed when I called Dell computer support, the person that would answer the phone had a very thick Indian accent. It was so frustrating talking with them because they couldn't understand me and I couldn't understand them. If the next time I would called the person that answered had an accent I would just hang up and call back. Recently I have noticed that the call centers have gotten better. I called Expedia the other day and I could barely tell the woman that answered had an accent. Then when I asked her where her office was she said it was in the Philippines. Then I knew that he real name wasn't Megan like she had told me. So I asked her real name, and it wasn't Megan. I also asked her where she learned to speak English. She told me at her school in the Philippines and also that Expedia puts them in English classes to improve their speaking. I was very surprised, it seemed that the customer service agents were getting better at replicating the U.S. culture.
My opinion on outsourcing is that this is the "new normal" of the global economy. In the Thomas Friedman special about outsourcing, he interviewed the chairman of Wipro, which happens to be the richest man in India. The chairman says that innovation is the key to U.S. keeping up with the job loss due to outsourcing. He also said that much of the wealth in the U.S. has come from global markets. I agree with these statements and I think that in order for the U.S. to keep up we need to be on the top of our game. Innovations and our education system should be top notch if we want the American people to become the competitive advantage.

Lamb Hand Print Craft
This would be a great Easter craft for little kids. It's a sweet and sentimental craft that would be a great follow up craft to a lion and the lamb lesson!
Here's what we did to make this cute Lamb Hand Print Craft –
You'll Need:
- Black construction paper or card stock
- Google Eye
- Glue
- Cotton Balls
- Scissors and a Pencil for tracing
I traced hands, gently holding the thumb so it points outward and not down
We started gluing cotton balls all over the palm section of the hand print, and we glued an eye on the thumb
We added one more cotton ball to the first 3 – longer fingers, leaving the pinky and thumb without cotton balls
That's it! Such a cute craft for the little ones and big ones! I did one with my 12 year old as well!

A1: I look at this question differently. I see this as an opportunity to help clients become an influencer one day. It's a long term game plan but I believe every brand has great values, contents and stories to share to the world. We all gotta start somewhere! #bufferchat
— Derek Leung (@startwithderek) April 4, 2018
A1. Yes! We've passively done it for a few years but now we have an official influencer/ambassador program and somewhat streamlined process. #bufferchat pic.twitter.com/0Q2g9HgjPe

— Ashley Hoffman (@ashhmarketing) April 4, 2018
Just but thinking about backing off from it – influencers seem a bit fickle and jump to whoever gives them the most free stuff. But it's also interesting so watch big brands like @Alo_Yoga right now and their influencers with the current #yoga landscape #bufferchat A1

A3: Depending on your IM plan, you may create a separate budget entirely but when just getting started, allocate from other paid media spend.
In an ideal world, all influencers would be static but you are going to find different agreements with each one.#bufferchat
— Jeff Higgins Wants New Garbage Pail Kids (@ItsJeffHiggins) April 4, 2018
A3: Influencer budget generally stems from your media cash, though smart partnerships / content shares could justify stealing from the creative pot. Get clever with your roll outs & you can actually find savings. #BufferChat
— Jack Appleby (@JuiceboxCA) April 4, 2018
A3: We base compensation on reach and engagement. We budget for estimated engagement and attach a value to a customer's click. #bufferchat pic.twitter.com/0xmfXNRMk3

— Cassandra Schwartz ⭐ (@cssndrlnn) April 4, 2018
A4: Yes, a campaign brief is vital to ensure the best possible outcome. There needs to be shared understanding of the message and goals.
Also an action plan, especially scheduling, is important for maximum exposure. #bufferchat
— Little Tzu Marketing (@wearelittletzu) April 4, 2018
#A4 #Bufferchat: It is crucial to brief the team on ROI and the influencers on expectations through a brief. The brief should also have recommendations and/or examples to aid the influencers. This makes it easy to follow up, keep track of #ROI and expand the #influencerprogram.
— Mogul Tech International (@MogulTechInt) April 4, 2018
A4. Nothing beats an accurate but engaging campaign brief @buffer but brands show try and help influencers really get to know the brand by doing brand days, video briefs and chats over coffee to help influencers get inside the brand exprience ?. #BufferChat. pic.twitter.com/Jcigsddsxf

From the community:
A5: Along w/ meeting goals, I'd say interviewing the influencer after the campaign has completed seeing if they also achieved their goals. Influencer marketing is a two-way street, and once both sides are satisfied w/ the results, then it's successful 🙂 #bufferchat
— Paige Sandhu (@paige_sandhu) April 4, 2018
A5: other than practical measurements like use of affiliate codes, Analytics, conversion rates, etc. I think some ways to measure success comes from the overall sentiment towards your product or service. If you're building trust, then you're doing it right. #bufferchat pic.twitter.com/7rlNaaJpSR
— Pippa ? (@PippaRogers82) April 4, 2018
A5 Having clear goals right from the start – is it to increase sales? Promote awareness? Bring new followers to the brand's social media? Then reading the right metrics and feedback accordingly #bufferchat https://t.co/UMeEWBV0YG
— Bruna Miranda (@brumiranda) April 4, 2018
A5:) influence marketing is difficult to be a stand alone metric.

We offer free-range pork, raised in the best possible conditions, every three months.
Our pigs were raised on our permaculture farm in Warrawong, where they moved about different areas of the farm and feasted on leftover fruit, vegetables and plants – which also helps us to cultivate the soil. Our pigs are rotated so they always have fresh pasture. They live in the sunshine, roll in mud, and act like pigs. Their addition gives us the capacity to convert food waste into meat.
They also help us control weeds and vegetable stubble in our cropping areas, without synthetic chemicals. They spare us from fungal issues that can occur from stubble build up. They fertilize our soil with manure. Their digging forces and mixes organic matter deep into the ground.
We raise them seasonally, so meat is available every 3 months.
We offer pigs for wholesale or to be purchased whole or half. If you are interested in purchasing a whole pig, please contact Kristin at email@example.com or call the office on 02 4243 1537 to find out more.

BlackFly 'flying car' to hit the market in 2019 for the price of an SUV
Are we sure this isn't alien technology?
- A Larry Page-backed company has announced that its flying car will go on sale in 2019.
- It's called the BlackFly.
- Not quite the escape from traffic you had in mind, but it's a jaw-dropping start.
Hey, it's the future. We're supposed to have flying cars, right? Well, here's your flying car, sort of and again. It's slated to go on sale in 2019. It's called the BlackFly and the company manufacturing it, Opener, is backed at least partially by Alphabet's Larry Page, who's been rumored to have been tinkering with such craft for a while, working with a few partners. Alan Eustace, who's been on Big Think, is an Opener technical advisor.
BlackFly isn't really much of a car-car. It can only travel on roads when it's being carried by its pair of carts, so your seamless, cruise-down-from-the-sky-and-onto-the-road vehicle hasn't quite arrived yet. And you'll be driving BlackFly solo—it holds just one person of up to 6.5 feet in height and weighing in a 250 lbs. But still, wow.
BlackFly in the sky
Here's the official launch video. Imagine seeing this while out on a hike.
As you might expect, where the strikingly futuristic, all-electric BlackFly shines is in the air. It can take off and land vertically (VTOL), and travel at a speed of 62 mph. It has a range of about 25 miles before its onboard battery needs to be recharged much like an electric car. With a rounded bottom, it sort of rocks itself into position as it lands.
Both its speed and range are limited by U.S. FAA regulations. It can go faster and farther in Canada, for example. (More on the regs below.)
Is this thing safe? Is it any fun?
Being at the forefront of personal flight, BlackFly sports three fail-safe flight systems, including a glide mode in case the power fails. There's also an optional parachute for the cautious. And the craft has been tested rigorously, successfully transporting a full payload for 12,000 miles. The propulsion systems made it through 40,000 flight cycles, the equivalent of 25 trips around Earth.
Being so high-tech, operation of the BlackFly is purported to be pretty easy, with a simple user interface, an "intuitive joystick," "soft-landing assist," and even a "Return-to-Home" button. In any event, Opener will be requiring buyers of the BlackFly to have successfully completed the FAA's private-pilot written test first.
The company says BlackFly will be capable of autonomous flight somewhere down the, er, road.
Sky legal
The FAA considers the BlackFly an ultralight vehicle, which limits its usefulness for escaping traffic jams—it's only allowed to fly over non-congested areas.
More targeted regulations are unlikely to be formulated quickly enough for businesses like Opener and Uber—which expects to have flying taxis up in the air by 2023—or some members of Congress. So says the FAA's acting administrator Dan Elwell at the Uber Elevate summit. When a suggestion was made that flying cars could be allotted their own air space, Elwell, responded, "What you just described is where we don't want to go. You just described segregated airspace. My hope is that we don't have to do that." Still, he says a legal framework for flying-car operation is more a matter of when than if. FAA spokesman Les Dorr tells the Washington Examiner, "The FAA has anticipated these vehicles for some time and is working with industry to help them develop their ideas."
Opener's flying SUV
Opener hasn't yet published a price for the BlackFly, excerpt to say that "In full production, BlackFly will be the price of an SUV. We are vague about the exact price so as not to overpromise." It hasn't yet established a waiting list, so there's no preordering going on yet. There is a mailing list so you can keep up with development, including air show appearances where you can see BlackFly in person. The website also lists its social media accounts.
Why name it BlackFly? Opener says, "Black flies are insects with outstanding aerodynamic and VTOL capabilities. They have the same color as the black carbon fibers in our fuselage. They are disruptive." Well, yes. But they also bite.

Good afternoon to you, you lovely, lovely lady!!!
A delightful pleasure to receive your e-mail. Strangely enough, you've been in my thoughts during the last week. Can't imagine why….right!!!
Thank you very much for your e-mails. I must tell you, I was enthralled with the beauty from the photos I viewed. First of all, I was delighted to see you and see how well you are. That pleases me most of all. However, the horses and dogs along with the meadows and fields simply stopped me in my tracks. One day, God willing, I'll be able to see the East Hampton's once again….it's been decades, for goodness sakes. It really is so beautiful and I'm delighted you get to experience it every day of your life.
Please accept the warmest of wishes from our home to yours for a blessed Thanksgiving Day tomorrow filled with an abundance of happiness and joy but most importantly with good health…..well, a little prosperity would hurt either!!! Have a beautiful day tomorrow.

The initial quote that was attributed to me sounds a bit callous, and that was not my intention. I truly believe that GGP has some serious issues, but I did not intent to make light of them or belittle them. Just want to make my perspective clear.
Excerpts rom downtownexpress.com:
General shrinking? Critics warn Seaport firm has no doughThe stock of General Growth Properties fell nearly 50 percent in the past year, and the company has $18.4 billion in debt coming due in the next 3½ years, according to the Wall Street Journal. Earlier this month, Bob Michaels, G.G.P.'s president and C.O.O., was forced to sell half his shares in the company because of the dropping stock price, the Journal reported...
General Growth hopes to demolish the touristy mall on Pier 17 and replace it with low-rise retail, a boutique hotel and a public plaza. They also hope to build a 495-foot condo-hotel tower just north of the pier (Hey New Yorkers, that's just what our dear city has been lacking, more condo towers - talk about massive demand and no supply in a strong macro environment!), and they want to move the landmarked Tin Building to the pier's tip..."They're dead broke and in extreme financial hardship," said Reggie Middleton... "I can't see them doing [a new project]…. They definitely can't afford a redevelopment of this size." This doesn't quite read how I intended, but the gist is accurate. They are currently paying a dividend that has been funded through stock sales and mortgage refinancing in a slowing equity, debt and CRE market while they have massive amounts of debt to refi that is looking to be quite troublesome. I think its fair to say they have problems. See GGP and the type of investigative analysis you will not get from your brokerage house for more on thier trials and tribulations.
Middleton traced General Growth's expansion over the last decade, in which the company aggressively acquired property around the country, riding the top of the credit bubble. In 2004, General Growth bought the Rouse Company, the former owner of the Seaport mall. Then the credit bubble popped, and Middleton thinks General Growth won't be able to refinance its debt and will have to either sell off properties or foreclose on them.
Earlier this month, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported (I was quoted in that article as well) that General Growth is backing out of a deal to co-develop a $4.8 billion resort on the strip, called Echelon. General Growth is also delaying development of a 1.4 million-square-foot mixed-use project in Las Vegas called the Shops at Summerlin Centre, the Review-Journal reported.
Middleton sees these Las Vegas delays as an indication of what could happen at the Seaport.
General Growth executives declined interview requests for this article (But, of course they did), but the firm released a statement defending its ability to complete the Seaport project and indirectly addressing the Las Vegas delays.
"G.G.P. conducts business throughout the nation," a General Growth spokesperson wrote in an e-mail to Downtown Express. "Our decisions in any individual market have no bearing whatsoever on our plan for the Seaport."
The statement continued, "General Growth Properties has a 50-year track record of successful developments. This is a long-term project and G.G.P. remains 100 percent committed to realizing its vision for the Seaport's future. We are moving forward without hesitation in our mission to reconnect the Seaport to the Lower Manhattan community and to bring important benefits to the neighborhood."
Middleton said the statement sounded like public relations "fluff" and he would want to know how General Growth planned to pull itself out of its financial straits. Even when the market improves, which could take years, Middleton does not think General Growth will fully recover.
"They're not going to come out of this the same company they went in," Middleton said.
General Growth is working closely with the city Economic Development Corporation on the project, since the city owns the waterfront land G.G.P. wants to develop..
General Growth has a history of requesting — and receiving — government subsidies and tax abatements, according to Good Jobs First, a group that researches development subsidies. Good Jobs First released a report last year called "Growing At Whose Expense?" which calls G.G.P. "one of the biggest drains on local government revenues in the United States." The report looked at 50 of General Growth's other malls, about a quarter of its U.S. properties. Fourteen of the 50 malls have received a total of $200 million in government subsidies and $9 million in tax savings from assessment appeals...
