It’s May 23rd. This day in 1909, Helen “Nellie” Taft, wife of President William Howard Taft, suffered a stroke that caused her to retreat from the White House to recover.

Jody, NIki, and Kellie discuss how Nellie was a highly influential figure, and how her absence may have significantly effected the course of the Taft presidency.

Nellie Taft was a smart, ambitious woman, who pushed her husband into politics and to the White House, when he'd much rather have been a judge. In a less sexist era, she would have been more likely to be President than he was, according to Doris Kearns Goodwin in "The Bully Pulpit: Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, and the Golden Age of Journalism."

Would be majorly interested in how everyone at med reacted when they found out sarah was found 👀 like who knew first, how did everyone find out, did they learn about it when she and the kids were brought to the ED or did someone tell them first, etc?

Goodwin she was the first to know, for obvious reasons. one of her doctors had just been arrested for kidnapping another one of her doctors, so that's something she had to be made aware of. Voight told her the basics - that Crockett had been holding Sarah in his basement, and that she'd been found with two daughters - and she said she'd make arrangements for Sarah and the girls at Med

Dr Charles Goodwin told him pretty much as soon as she got off the phone with Voight. after everything, he deserved to know that she was alive. he'd spent five years blaming himself for her disappearance, so of course he was so glad to hear that she was alive. it didn't make the feelings of guilt go away, but at least she wasn't dead

Hannah there aren't many female doctors in the ED, and Sarah was coming in with children, so Goodwin told Hannah about Sarah, and asked her to be in charge of her care. she'd never met Sarah, but she'd heard about her, and she was more than happy to be her doctor. she was sworn to secrecy until Sarah and the girls arrived, so she had to act like nothing was happening

Nellie Sarah was bound to need to speak to a therapist at some point, and Dr Charles was obviously not an option. after what she'd been through, no one was sure how Sarah would react to being treated by a man, so Nellie was there to help Hannah on the more psychological side of things. again, she never met Sarah, but she'd asked Maggie one day why Dr Charles was always so short with her, and Maggie had been honest and told her about Sarah, and that she probably reminded him of her.

the only people at Med who knew about Sarah before she was brought in were Goodwin, Hannah, Nellie, Dr Charles, Peter Kalmick, and Nurse Trini

Will like everybody else, just completely relieved that Sarah's alive, but so angry at Crockett. he'd been there at his party, with Sarah in the basement below, and he had no idea. tbh the three main feelings going around are relief, anger, and guilt. it's a lot for everyone to process

Maggie she wants nothing more than to hug Sarah and never let go, but she's smart enough to know that's probably a bad idea. Trini is assigned to Sarah's care, so Maggie just watches from a distance and offers to help wherever needed. she takes a break about an hour after Sarah's brought in and cries in the bathroom

Ethan and April they're working when they hear the news, a few hours after Sarah was found, and they're both in complete disbelief. Ethan wishes he'd punched Crockett harder. they'd both had issues with him, but they never thought he'd be capable of something like this. and Sarah was found with children? April feels sick at the thought of it

Connor and Ava Ava didn't know Sarah that well, but she knew of her, and saw how distraught everyone was by her disappearance. she's obviously relieved that Sarah's been found, but she's not as affected by it as everyone else. Connor's a complete mess. he'd always hoped that Sarah would be found, but after five years, he'd started to accept that that wasn't going to happen. he took the rest of the day off work and went home, and Ava covered his surgeries

Noah like Dr Charles, he blames himself for Sarah's disappearance. on the night Crockett took her, he could see that she was having a bad time, so he'd invited her out for drinks. she said no, she just wanted to go home, and he (eventually) dropped it. then when she was reported missing, it was discovered that she was last seen at a bar, and Noah blamed himself for putting the idea in her head. if she'd just gone home like she'd planned, she would have been fine

Jack Dayton this is an absolute PR nightmare for him. at least Sarah's okay

#ask #missing!fic #it's important to know that Ava never killed anyone and she and Connor are both still at Med in this au

So @singledarkshade​ has a Dream Movie challenge where we are given 6 actors from our favorite TV shows (or movies), a wildcard actor, and an object that should be incorporated into the plot. 

I decided to make my movie blurb and character descriptions like a “case file” of suspects as my movie is about a Private Investigator team, so enjoy! :) 

CASEFILE: King Investigations is the best investigative group in the country, and they are taking on so-called “unsolvable” cases, refusing new cases until they solve the one they have. One day, an envelope containing $5,000 is slid under their door alongside a note on a strip of paper. The request? To solve the murder of their recently deceased employee. The problem? Every employee of King Investigations is alive and accounted for, so they quickly get on the case - to solve why one of their own is getting murdered, and stop it before it happens.

SUSPECT: Stephanie Beatriz as Aimee Gonzalez 

Role: Technology specialist

Background: Suspect was hired 5 years ago after offering up her services for a case where a woman had been missing for 43 years. She solved the case within 24 hours of joining the team as a liaison and was immediately offered a full-time position at King Investigations. 

Characteristics: An expert at finding someone, if you’ve left even a trace of yourself online she will work tirelessly to find you. Suspect’s favorite color is pink and seems to have a splash of pink on her at all times, alongside any decorations she ever has laying around. The suspect is an out and proud bisexual woman. Suspect seems bright and bubbly, constantly hugging the other suspects and loudly proclaiming her love for them in public. Genuine happiness or an attempt to throw off the case from herself? 

Close relationships: Adam King (best friend), Nelly Johnson (close friend) 

Further suspects are listed under the cut:

SUSPECT: Tom Ellis as Adam King

Role: Founder of King Investigations

Background: Suspect founded King Investigations roughly 10 years ago, but has a PI background spanning two decades. He previously worked for Perry Co., but left under good terms to create the company with his husband, co-worker, and new employee. 

Characteristics: Suspect is a blunt, to-the-point PI who excels at investigating cases, but is not so great on the whole empathy thing. He is meticulous in every detail, and unlike Suspect Gonzalez’s tech-savviness, prefers everything traditional and vintage - from his work method to his clothes to his furniture. He comes off as sarcastic and dick-ish, and he is, but he’s also fiercely loyal and firmly believes in getting justice in every case. He will not give up, no matter how little he has to go on. 

Close Relationships: James King (husband), Lily Mullins (best friend), Aimee Gonzalez (best friend), Andrew Perry (mentor) 

SUSPECT: Michiel Huisman as James King 

Role: PI - particularly skilled in surveillance 

Background: Suspect has been working at King Investigations for 10 years, and like his husband, he migrated over from Perry Co. 

Characteristics: The more grounded counter to his husband, the suspect is a more quiet investigative sort, who also specializes in something that comes a bit harder to his husband - empathy. His role seems to involve trailing individuals and smoothing over any issues that arise, whether they be due to the case or Suspect Adam King’s own behavior. Further information on the suspect could not be found at this time. 

Close relationships: Adam King (husband), Clancy White (confidant), Andrew Perry (close friend) 

SUSPECT: Malcolm Goodwin as Clancy White

Role: “Bodyguard”, particularly skilled in combat 

Background: Suspect has been working at King Investigations for the shortest amount of time (2 years). Suspect began as the King Investigation team’s chief suspect in an unsolved murder, which he was promptly cleared of when the true murderer cornered Suspects Mullins and Adam King, and White apprehended them. He was offered a job shortly after. Suspect does not have a PI license and is instead employed as a “bodyguard” for the Kings, although he freely aids in investigations behind-the-scenes. 

Characteristics: Suspect is soft-spoken and quiet, but seems to attempt to match the personality and energy of whoever is speaking to him. Suspect is an aromantic man who entered into a queerplatonic relationship with suspect Nelly Johnson, and now lives with Nelly Johnson and Lily Mullins. 

Close Relationships: Nelly Johnson (partner), Lily Mullins (friend), James King (best friend) 

SUSPECT: Emmy Raver-Lampman as Nelly Johnson 

Role: Forensic specialist 

Background: Suspect is the one who originally came up with the idea of King Investigations, though she never worked at Perry Co. Suspect worked at the police department for 5 years and became frustrated with the department, and suggested to King and her now-wife (then girlfriend) Mullins that she would gladly work with them under their own company. Suspect immediately quit her department job after King Investigations was founded. 

Characteristics: Suspect is sharp-witted and seems to match King’s wit. She is clearly confident and has an inquisitive mind, constantly checking and re-checking every bit of evidence that comes her way. 

Close relationships: Lily Mullins (wife), Clancy White (partner), Aimee Gonzalez (friend) 

SUSPECT: Isla Fischer as Lily Mullins 

Role: PI at King Investigations

History: Suspect has been working at King Investigations for a decade. Much like the others, she migrated over from Perry Co. Out of the original founders, she has the least experience as an investigator, having started as an intern for only a few months before moving to King Investigations. 

Characteristics: Suspect is sharp-tongued and has a good poker face. She seems to have strong combat skills and is exceptionally manipulating others into giving her information. She and her wife recently moved in with Clancy White. Suspect is seemingly always on guard, scanning for danger in even the most mundane circumstances. Suspect should be watched closely. 

Close relationships: Nelly Johnson (wife), Clancy White (close friend), Adam King (best friend), Andrew Perry (mentor) 

SUSPECT: Harrison Ford as Andrew Perry 

Role: Former head of Perry Co.

Background: Suspect is the mentor to the Kings and Mullins, who all used to work for him before moving on to create King Investigations. Perry retired shortly before the three announced their business. 

Characteristics: He acts as a father figure to these suspects King(s) and Mullins, and sees them regularly, as well as occasionally visiting the other team members. Suspect seemed reluctant to come out of retirement when the investigative team asked him to come out of retirement to help solve the case, but did so upon realizing that it was a life-or-death situation. Suspect seems reserved, but clearly cares for the founding investigators. 

Close relationships: Adam King (mentee), Lily Mullins (mentee), James King (close friend) 

Item - Lamp 

The lamp is remarked upon by every single member of the investigative team. Clancy believes Aimee brought it in, due to her love of pink. Nelly believes Adam brought it in with his love of vintage materials, Adam believes it was Clancy due to his poor taste in decorations, etc. Each team member has an off-hand comment on how ugly the lamp looks before moving on. 

BONUS: Plot summary (with some scenes written in because I couldn’t help myself) 

We start off with a news-voiceover on King Investigation’s latest bust as we see the team stopping a potential murder. The reporter briefly introduces each character (as we see each doing their own thing in the case), and through the voiceover, we see the team turning in the suspect to the police, as well as discovering valuables of their client’s. She thanks them and provides them with a hefty sum of money. The reporter says the team has solved yet another seemingly unsolveable case and preventing a murder to boot, while we see the team begin to move furniture into a new building. As the voiceover speaks about their professionalism, we see Nelly and Adam arguing, and Nelly throwing out an old vase. Aimee sits on the curb, watching the group arguing and struggling to carry the furniture into the house. The voiceover begins to praise the team for their hard work and perserverance, as we see Clancy turn to Aimee and motion towards the furniture, at which point she shrugs and offers him the chips she has been eating. He accepts and sits down next to her. 

The beginning half hour shows the dynamics within the team - a team that seems to bicker constantly, but are obviously very close with one another. They are at lunch with their former boss, Andrew Perry, when he asks how the move is going: 

[The team is clustered around a round table outside. CLANCY is holding NELLY’s hand. LILY has a pleasant smile on her face, but she is looking beyond the group, her eyes scanning the area. ADAM has his legs stretched out, prompting an eye roll from AIMEE, and JAMES has made himself as small as possible, crossing his legs to provide AIMEE more room. ANDREW sits next to AIMEE, looking at the group with an amused smile] 

ADAM: It’s splendid, really, Andrew, save for Nelly throwing out my furniture yet again - 

NELLY: If you get one more ugly-ass vintage piece I am throwing it out, I swear to God. 

ADAM, indignant: I - ugly? These are pieces of history. 

[ADAM processes that NELLY said she would throw out his pieces] 

ADAM: And excuse me? Throw out the furniture I bring into my office? Need I remind you that I am the boss? 

NELLY [mocking ADAM’s indignant tone]: Need I remind you King Investigations wouldn’t even be a thing if I didn’t suggest it? 

[ANDREW laughs and excuses himself to flag down a waiter and get another round of drinks for the table. As he leaves, ADAM and NELLY have a stare down while the rest of the group ignores them. AIMEE reaches over JAMES to steal a fry from ADAM’s plate, but he swats her hand away, never breaking eye contact. The music swells, until finally -] 

NELLY: Fine. I won’t throw away your stupid vintage shit. 

ADAM: Aha! See, this is why I am the boss, everyone.

[The group ignores him, and JAMES grabs two fries from ADAM’s plate, giving one to AIMEE] 

The team gets settled in, setting up security measures, adjusting things around the office, and giving Perry a tour. We see them in a fully furnished office, pouring over what case they want to take on next. Lily pauses for a moment, thinking she’s heard something, but brushes off the feeling and continues on. The team falls silent when Clancy notices a letter that has slid under their door, alongside an envelope with $50,000 in cash with the message: 

CLANCY [with a confused, questioning tone]: My deepest condolences to losing a member of your investigative team, I trust this amount will be enough for you to uncover who carried out this plot, the remainder will be delivered to you upon the completion of the case? 

[AIMEE furrows her eyebrows and quickly counts up each member in the room]

AIMEE: Well unless one of us drops in the next 5 seconds, I’d say we’re all pretty alive. 

CLANCY: Maybe it’s a joke? 

JAMES [gesturing to the money]: It is a very expensive joke. 

The team determines that the note was sent in advance because somewhere, the murderer’s plot went wrong, and so they work with two goals in mind: Figure out who is getting murdered, and why. 

JAMES: First, we have to figure out who is most likely to be our victim. 

[All eyes turn to ADAM, who is intently pouring over the letter. He stops when he hears the lack of silence, and glares at them] 

ADAM: Oh come on now, I get the job done. 

NELLY: I say this with love, but you’re an asshole, Adam. I think every case we’ve ever worked has at least one person who threatened to kill you. 

LILY: And twice it was the victim we were saving. 

ADAM: Well that’s just - 

NELLY [muttering]: I’d kill you myself over your shitty home decor choices. 

[NELLY briefly motions to the garish pink lamp in the corner, but ADAM is not paying attention, because his attention is on JAMES, who has turned to write down ADAM’s name at the top of his whiteboard, and ADAM gives a sound of protest. JAMES looks back at his husband, an apologetic look on his face.] 

JAMES: Sorry, Adam. You know it’s true. 

ADAM [sighs, waving his hand at the board]: Fine, put me on the board. 

[JAMES writes down ADAM’s name at the top of the whiteboard, then underlines his name three times]

Throughout the movie, the team works to identify who the victim could be. Clancy and Lily tail the Kings, convinced that it is Adam or James who are the intended victims. Adam and Aimee work on the idea that it could be due to one of their past cases, and James and Nelly track down the man who sent the letter - a recent British immigrant who claims that he was told to do so and paid by an anonymous caller and that he never got the face. He admits he realized he got the date wrong - 5/6/2021 instead of 6/5/2021, and they realize it is a month before the supposed murder is supposed to take place. 

Coming to a pause in their investigation, James, Lily, and Adam ask Andrew for help. He is reluctant but agrees. The group continues on, getting frustrated as they track down lead after lead without any further break. It comes to a head when: 

[ADAM slams down a file in frustration, and the other members look up, frustration etched onto their faces as well.] 

ADAM: There’s nothing. There probably will be nothing until the murder is supposed to happen. 

[CLANCY sighs and leans his head back, wincing when he hits the pink lamp]

CLANCY: Okay, I know that you love pink, Aimee, but this is ugly even with the color scheme. 

[The team has a confused look on their faces, and AIMEE and ADAM speak at the same time] 

AIMEE: No, Lily brought it in -                    ADAM: Wait, you didn’t bring it?

LILY: Why would I bring this -                     CLANCY: Definitely didn’t, man.

[There is a brief pause as each team member processes, and the team speaks over one another] 

JAMES: I had just assumed Clancy brought it in as well - 

NELLY: Okay, I thought it was Adam. Figured he was just trying to rile me up with his weird furniture.

ADAM: I have taste, Nelly - 

[LILY shushes the group] 

LILY: So none of us bought this lamp in? 

[The group stares at the lamp, and LILY writes on a slip of paper. The other members write as well, understanding that there may be a bug in the lamp, and Nelly grabs her materials to investigate the lamp.] 

As the group continues, they find a listening device in the lamp. Aimee works to trace where it came from, but Adam stops her, and looks to Lily and James, a look of understanding passing between them, as they all recognize and used to use this type of listening device before - at Perry Co. They dig into Andrew and find out that he was not intending to retire until he found out about King Investigations - a week prior to them actually telling him of their plan, and a former colleague tells them that Perry had lamented that if Nelly hadn’t brought up the idea, this never would have happened. They determine that Nelly is his target and start their plan. 

The next scene, Andrew is visiting the office to help with the case. The team confronts him, laying down the evidence: 

ADAM [his eyes are teary, but his tone is angry and cold]: Rather clever of you, got the lamp in what, during the final move? And you listened to us so you’d be ahead of us every step of the way. 

AIMEE: Once we figured out it was you, it was all too easy to track the phone you used to contact [letter sender]. 

LILY [her tone biting]: And we asked you for help. You played hesitant, but we offered you up the case on a silver platter. 

JAMES: And we know exactly who you were trying to kill. 

[The music swells, and ANDREW’s shoulders slump. He knows that he’s been found out. He and ADAM speak at the same time.]

ADAM: Nelly                                               ANDREW [resigned]: Myself 

[There is a pause, and then JAMES speaks, surprise clear in his voice for the first time in the movie] 

JAMES: What?  

From here, we have the conclusion - Andrew admits that he doesn’t hate Nelly, he respects her for understanding when a change needs to occur. He hadn’t planned on retiring until he found out he was losing his best detectives, but he didn’t want them to go onto their new job with any hesitations or regrets, so he announced his retirement earlier than planned. There was just one problem - he began missing his detectives, who he had come to view as pseudo-children. 

Andrew put a plan into place - he would prove, as Aimee did all those years ago, that he could be useful to the team. He concocted a plan where he would fake his death and lead the team down different twists and turns until they found the culprit, at which point he would reveal himself to be alive. Unfortunately, his letter was delivered far too early, and Andrew had to intervene wherever he could in the investigation. 

ADAM: I can’t believe this. 

ANDREW: I know, I know, it was stupid, I just wanted to show you I was sharp and could still do it. 

ADAM: You could have just applied, like a normal person. 

ANDREW: I could have, but that wouldn’t be nearly as fun, would it? 

JAMES: A murder plot is not fun, Andrew. 

The team forgives Andrew, knowing that his intentions were good, but say that they need a bit of time before seeing him again, and he agrees. In the last act a few months later, they are having lunch again, sans Andrew. They return to the office. When they open the door, they see a paper, and Adam sighs before he realizes what it is. It’s a job application, filled out with a resume for an Andrew Perry attached, and he grins. 

[ADAM picks up his phone and sits down, the ugly pink lamp right next to him, and the phone rings, until someone picks up.] 

ADAM [smiling]: Hello there, I’m calling to follow up with your application to King Investigations. It is rather impressive, and we’d like to call you in for an interview.

[Muffled sounds of a voice coming through the phone, and ADAM grins wider] 

ADAM: Wonderful, we’ll see you at 8 AM sharp tomorrow. We look forward to having you on board Mr. Perry

Remember now, that more than 75 per cent of children born in Antigua and Barbuda, were born outside of marriage. When Nellie Robinson opened her school, and opened it to children whose parents were not married, she not only challenged the colonial cultural history of Antigua and Barbuda, she set about to transform it. She compelled, by force of example, the two leading schools in Antigua, the AGS and the AGHS, to admit children of unmarried parents, and so opened secondary education to all. Auchinleck (Pronounced O-Fleck) would build classrooms at the Antigua Grammar School, in the 40's which would expand the Grammar School from 60 students after 60 years of existence, to four and five times 60! To eliminate Nellie Robinson's profound influence on the Auchinleck development is to be short-sighted in the extreme, if not downright misogynist. Nothing has altered the cultural landscape of Antigua and Barbuda, as did the existence of the T.O.R. Memorial High School. I need only remind that Nellie Robinson served on the Water Preservation Committee since 1912, and the records show that she was relentless, in urging the expansion of pipe-borne water since 1924. She had a belief in personal hygiene as the motor of self and social development which was exceptional. Incidentally too, she led the first Arts and Cultural Committee established here, resigning from the leadership because her role as an actor, she felt, conflicted with that leadership. Her sense of ethics, personal and public was as profound as it was deep. It is still possible to distinguish a "Miss Robinson School" boy or girl, by the high quality of their behaviour. I am not done with Nellie Robinson, at least, not yet. In 1926 the Ernestine Stephens High School was founded. In 1930 Agatha E. Goodwin founded the Faith and Hope High School. In 1939 Hilda Davis founded that pillar of social and cultural life in Antigua, the Foundation Mixed School. In 1946, Mildred Richards founded the St. Mildred School, and in 1951, Ms Hill, founded the Miss Hill School Secondary. And I cannot now remember when Ms Walters School started, or Ms Ross, or Teacher Merle's School. The point though ought to be clear. All of these women committed to education and therefore culture, followed where Ms Nellie Robinson had trail blazer.

Democrats Fearing 2020 Election Scramble For Panic Button With Loser Candidates NY Post ^ | 8/3/2019 | MichaelGoodwin

For nearly three years, Democrats were certain they would eat President Trump’s lunch in 2020. The 25 dreamers seeking the party’s nomination are testament to the conviction that one of them definitely would be the next president.

Oops.

Suddenly, after just two debates, the Nervous Nellies are climbing the walls. Many Dems are worried that the battle is too nasty and too negative, and that the front-runner, Joe Biden, is looking awfully ­wobbly.

Equally worrisome, Biden’s strongest challengers, Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, are leaning so far left that their appeal could be limited to the most radical elements. Some of their supporters are even attacking the sainted Barack Obama.

What to do? My modest suggestion: Panic!

All three top contenders are looking like losers in a general election. Here’s why, starting with Biden.

Years ago, in a discussion about how hard it is to get elected president, the late Democratic Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan offered an example. Bob Dole, his friend and Republican colleague, was so perfectly qualified and would have been chosen as prime minister in a heartbeat if America had a parliamentary system, Moynihan insisted.

The discussion took place after Dole was crushed by Bill Clinton in the 1996 presidential race. Dole was his party’s grand old man when he got the nomination, having been in the House and Senate for a combined 35 years.

He was the vice-presidential nominee in 1976, when Jimmy Carter defeated Gerald Ford, and sought the top spot in 1980 and 1988 before dropping out.

A World War II hero who was seriously wounded and awarded two Purple Hearts, Dole finally got his turn at age 73, but lost in a landslide.

Dole, now 96, is long retired, but his political doppelgänger — Biden — seeks one last hurrah.

OPINION:  The reason the Democrats looks so sloppy, is that (1) They have nothing to run on; (2) They’ve spent all they times, chasing a ‘lie’ that was planted against a then candidate (Donald J. Trump).  (3) The ‘fake dossier’ one was a  lie from the very beginning, and the willings ‘stupid’ Democrats bought into it as if it was the truth.  They wasted valuable time, waiting for a ‘shoe’ to fall to capitalize on it believing that the president would be ‘impeached’.

When the ‘lie’ was proven to be a ‘lie’ they still were stupid enough, that they continued with the ‘lie’ making the ‘hair’ on American Citizens head ‘stand-up’.

So, the morale to this opinion, is if they are so stupid at this point, it sends a signal, that not one of the candidates are qualified even in the slightest since can run this country as a Commander-in-Chief. 

Being in Congress is not necessarily a qualification to run this country unless, Banks or in trouble and you get paid to bail our the banks and the color of your skins help pull in people of color believing that its a historic moment and they want to be apart of history.  

Well, they must was confusing this with the MLK, Jr March. But, in reality it was far from that.  It was the Democrats as usual, using their ‘self-made’ tactics to further their won gain. 

Losers!

To: Signalman The slate of candidates they have are soooo far left they cannot even hope to make a run for the ‘center’ in the general election.

They have to pander to their so-called ‘base’ lunatic fringe that wants everything free and everybody else to pay for it.

That is a sure recipe for electoral disaster.

Trump will get re-elected and his coat tails will be long and deep.

This weekend, California Air National Guard 144th Fighter Wing flew over Disney California Adventure to celebrate Captain Marvel! While the national guard pilots flew overhead, members of the air force joined together at Paradise Park. Among the members of this prestigious group were some truly notable female members of the air guard! We wanted to take a moment to appreciate the women who inspired Carol Danvers and truly went “Higher, Further, Faster”!

While many in the crowd had their eyes fixed toward the sky during the Captain Marvel Flyover, on the ground were a couple dozen U.S. Air Force Airmen who were both honored and celebrated for their service to our country as well as the pivotal role they played in consulting on the Captain Marvel film.

Quite possibly one of the most understated, but most monumental components of the Captain Marvel Flyover was the presence of three Airmen in particular – Brigadier General Kristin E. Goodwin, Lieutenant General Jackie Van Ovost, and Brigadier General Jeannie M. Leavitt. When these ladies led the group of Airmen to the gathering place near one of the World of Color viewing locations, it was clear that they carried with them a presence that was revered by the entire crowd – especially by a young girl who was dressed in head-to-toe Captain Marvel gear and looked up at the Airmen completely enamored with the situation.

Kristin E. Goodwin

Brigadier General Kristin E. Goodwin knew, at 10 years old, that she was going to be an Airman in the United States Air Force. In 2019 she has now served in the USAF for more than a quarter of a century and has earned a long list of accolades. Some accomplishments include being the Senior Military Assistant to the Secretary of the Air Force, Headquarters U.S. Air Force, the Pentagon, Washington, D.C. as well as being the first-ever female Bomb Wing Commander. BGen Goodwin commanded the 2d Bomb Wing, which is home to both the B-2 and B-52H Bombers.

During her time in command of the 2d Bomb Wing, she was also responsible for leading the B-52 back into combat for the first time in a decade. Recently she was the Commander of Cadets for the U.S. Air Force Academy but has transitioned to the role of Director of current operations for Lt. Gen. Mark Kelly, Deputy Chief of Staff, at the Pentagon.

Lieutenant General Jackie Van Ovost

Lieutenant General Jackie Van Ovost has also held her fair share of notable positions during her time as an Airman. Currently, she serves as the impressive Director of Staff, Headquarters Air Force, the Pentagon, Arlington, Va. Lt Gen Van Ovost is an incredibly accomplished and highly regarded Airman and previously held the honor of commanding the 89th Airlift Wing, which just so happens to be home of Air Force 1. She has flown both as an Experimental Test Pilot as well as a Test Pilot Instructor and has more than 4,200 flight hours.

Brigadier General, Jeannie M. Leavitt

Last, but certainly not least, we were honored to be in the presence of historical Brigadier General, Jeannie M. Leavitt. BGen Leavitt became the United States Air Force’s first-ever female fighter pilot in 1993 and was the first-ever woman to command a USAF combat fighter wing. BGen Leavitt made history when she became the first female fighter pilot after the ban on women in air combat roles was lifted in 1993, but her intent was never to be the first female fighter pilot. She merely wanted to fly fighters, and it just so happens that she resulted in being the first one.

That trend continued as she became the first woman to take control of the 57th Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, and consequently the highest-ranking female commanding officer at the base as well. She may not have wanted the attention that has been bestowed upon her over the years, but BGen Leavitt became a pivotal consultant on the Captain Marvel film, working directly with Brie Larson to help develop her character as Carol Danvers. Some have even speculated that Carol Danvers military service and the story might mirror some of BGen Leavitt’s personal trailblazing military journey.

Just as these courageous Airmen have pioneered into uncharted territory to pursue their dreams and serve in the way they were called from a young age, inspiring thousands of females to break the mold, Carol Danvers and Captain Marvel will likely do the same. The Captain Marvel Flyover did more than just give fans an opportunity to get excited about the latest blockbuster in the Marvel Cinematic Universe but is a symbol of daring to dream the biggest dreams and having the chance to honor the heroes who have inspired you to chase the impossible.

Captain Marvel comes to theaters this week on March 7, just in time for International Women’s Day. The film follows Captain Carol Danvers, a fighter pilot that goes on to become the most powerful superhero in the galaxy! She may be our only hope to save the Avengers from Thanos in End Game and we can’t wait to see how she saves our universe.

Maya Rudolph

Maya Khabira Rudolph (born July 27, 1972) is an American actress and comedian. She rose to prominence on the NBC television show Saturday Night Live, where she was a cast member from 2000 to 2007. She has also starred in films such asIdiocracy (2006), Away We Go (2009), Grown Ups (2010), Bridesmaids (2011),Friends with Kids (2011), Grown Ups 2 (2013), and Sisters (2015). She starred as Ava Alexander in the NBC sitcom Up All Night from 2011 to 2013.

Early life

Rudolph was born in Gainesville, Florida. She is the daughter of soul singer-songwriter Minnie Riperton and composer, songwriter, and producer Richard Rudolph. Her father is an Ashkenazi Jew, and her mother was African-American. Her paternal grandfather was Sidney Rudolph, a philanthropist who once owned all of the Wendy's and Rudy's restaurants in Dade County, Florida. Her great-grandfather, who was born in Vilnius, Lithuania, changed his surname from "Rudashevsky" to "Rudolph," and was one of the founding members of Congregation Beth Shalom, a Conservative Jewish synagogue in the Squirrel Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Rudolph's parents moved to Los Angeles, California when she and her brother Marc were very young, and they grew up primarily in the Westwood neighborhood.

Near the end of the "Lovin' You" track, Riperton can be heard singing "Maya, Maya, Maya, Maya, Maya, Maya, Maya, Maya". Riperton incorporated this into her performance of the song on The Midnight Special. Riperton died on July 12, 1979, at age 31, from breast cancer. Rudolph's godmother was R&B singer Teena Marie.

In 1990, Rudolph graduated from Crossroads School in Santa Monica, California, where she became friendly with fellow students Gwyneth Paltrow and Jack Black, and continued her education at the University of California, Santa Cruz, where she graduated in 1995 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in photography from Porter College.

Career

Saturday Night Live

In May 2000, Rudolph joined the cast of Saturday Night Live as a featured player for the final three episodes of the 1999–2000 season, after a stint as a member of The Groundlings improv troupe, where she met future Saturday Night Live cast member Will Forte. Rudolph's musical talents were frequently employed on Saturday Night Live. She sang as Beyoncé Knowles in the Prince Showsketches, as the "Space Creature" in the Gays in Space sketches, except for the one on the season 31 episode hosted by Peter Sarsgaard, because it aired around the time Rudolph was on maternity leave. Friend Will Forte substituted for her during that episode. Her ability to change her looks and her command of many accents also led to her playing an unusually wide range of ethnicities on the show, often with only a change of wigs. As "Nooni Schoener," Rudolph, along with Fred Armisen, created a couple from an unspecified Scandinavian country, who have unplaceable accents and bewilderingly foreign manners. Rudolph was also able to play male characters such as Scott Joplin, Justin Guarini, and Mario Vazquez.

Her final episode as a cast member was on November 3, 2007, with host Brian Williams and musical guest Feist, the last episode before the writers' strike. She returned on October 25, 2008, in a featured guest appearance as Michelle Obama and sang a duet with Kenan Thompson about Amy Poehler's newborn. She then also appeared in the 2008 Christmas episode, where she reprised her role in the sketch Bronx Beat, with Amy Poehler. She also appeared in two sketches in the 2008–09 season finale with Will Ferrell. She appeared in a Weekend Update Thursday sketch during the fall 2009–10 season as Oprah Winfrey speaking on behalf of Chicago's bid for the 2016 Olympics. She also appeared on the show in May 2010 to perform in skits including "The Manuel Ortiz Show" with Betty White. She returned to Saturday Night Live for the season 36 premiere, hosted by Amy Poehler, performing the "Bronx Beat" sketch and that same season for episode 700, hosted by Tina Fey. On February 18, 2012 she returned to Saturday Night Live as a host for the first time and reprised her roles in sketches such as "Bronx Beat". She once again returned to SNL on December 19, 2015 for the Christmas episode hosted by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler to reprise her role in the "Bronx Beat" sketch. She appeared once more on the 41st season finale (hosted by Fred Armisen) as Dilma Roussef on Weekend Update.
