Oreo or Chips Ahoy?
Kelly: What is that.
Fred: Dunno, ask Rolland.
Linda: Okay, he says they are both brands of cookies from the early twenty-first century or so, and that Oreos are chocolate with vanilla filling and Chips Ahoy are just regular chocolate chip cookies.
John: I think the Oreo one sounds better, then.
Kelly: Yeah, or at least more interesting.
Fred: Same

Body Wave – The body wave is a fashion sultry style. It has plenty of class, attitude, and sheen. Good have made body wave style an iconic alternative to the flat straightened look. Brazilian Hair Weave is fabulous and doesn’t need a lot of styling. Body wave curly hair is a sure way to look effortlessly fabulous.
Deep Wave – Deep Wave Virgin Brazilian Human Loose Deep Wave Hair has tight classic voluptuous waves. These deep eaves give off a full beautiful healthy appearance with lots of sheen. Famous beauties like Rhianna have perfected their red carpet look with these luscious locks.

Curly Weave – Curly weave is very similar to the deep wave hair. But curly weave hair has curls that coil around completely as opposed to tight controlled waves. Curly weave hair offers an exotic allure with a flirty bounce. Celebrities like Halle Berry have favored this hairstyle.
Kinky Curly – Women can’t stop talking about Kinky Curly Virgin Brazilian Remy Weave hair. Women everywhere are embracing the natural look and this weave hair is the perfect way to transition into a natural style.

Favorite and least favorite ship you've ever been transported/served on. Stations like Cairo count
John: Remember the Vanishing Point?
Fred: Boy do I ever.
Kelly: That was the one captained by Colonel Crowther, right?
Linda: Didn’t he try to kill us? Why is that your favorite?
John: It’s not, I hate that guy. Like, what stupid innie sees there’s a war going on and just decides: “oh yeah, let’s kill the supersoldiers keeping us alive and then steal expensive ships that are needed to stop the genocidal aliens!”
John: The worst part is that he was so smart about it too.
Fred: His son is an idiot though.
Linda: Anyways for favorite ship, I don’t really have one but the shooting ranges on the Infinity are nice.
Kelly: And the gym.
Fred: Rolland is chill too.
John: Yeah, and Captain Lasky has a surprising amount of morals.
Linda: So I guess we do have a favorite.

After getting back to base, you and Rolland were taken to the hospital. You made sure they took care of him first before they even looked at you. You were in your room waiting to hear what was going on with Rolland, when you had an unexpected visitor.
The knock on the door got your attention. You looked up from your computer to see Green standing in the doorway of your hospital room.
“What do you need Daniel?”
“Umm… I just came to check on you and let you know that Rolland is out of surgery. He’s going to make a full recovery.”
“Thanks for the update, and I’m fine. I have had a lot worse than this trust me.” When he hung around you could tell there was something on his mind. “Anything else?”
“Yeah, I wanted to apologize.” He all of a sudden became shy, he rubbed his hand on the back of his neck. “I was a complete ass to you when I found out you were leading the team. I was more worried about the fact that you were a woman than how overqualified you are. Then I ended up getting you shot. I am more than sorry about that. You were an amazing leader, one of the best I have seen. You were going to sacrifice yourself to save the rest of us, hell you almost did.” You held your hand up to get him to stop talking.
“Listen, you’re not the only one who doesn’t like having a female leader. I have dealt with worse Marines trying to get me kicked out of missions. When I came into the Marines, I busted my ass night and day to be one of the best, while most men did only the required work.” You just shrugged. “Thank you, but if you ever have someone out in the field that is not willing to do even half of the things I did today, then they should really reconsider a career change. You don’t enlist in any branch just for the hell of it, we do it to help, save and protect people. If that means giving up my own life to save another, I’m going to do it.”
Before either of you could speak again, your commander came walking in.
“Major, it’s good to have you back.” You tried to sit straighter, but your commander waved you off.
“It’s good to be back Sir, even if I am a little banged up.”
“I know you wanted to talk to me about taking a leave of absents. I have to be in D.C. tomorrow so I figured it would be easier to come and talk to you before leaving.”
“Yes sir, I did. I need to take some time off to think about things. The marines have been my entire life at this point, and I am starting to think that it might be time to consider other things.”
“You want to be discharged?” You had completely forgot about Green.
“Not exactly. I was thinking maybe Reserves for now. I haven’t exactly made up my mind.” You sent a look over to him, hopefully he would shut up.
“Well, I will grant your Leave, but we are going to have a more private talk.” He looked over to Green who was looking down at the floor. “But if this is something that you really want to do, I’m sure we can figure it out.”
“Thank you, sir.”
After he left the room, there was this awkward tension. Green hadn’t looked up; you were just sitting there trying to figure out why he cared so much.
He left without saying another word.
“Are you really going to leave?”
“I’m not completely leaving, if I’m needed, I will be back. I have spent the last eighteen years in the Marines, I don’t know anything else. You never know I might absolutely hate being a civilian and want to come back immediately when my leave is over. This is something I need to do.”
You were released from the hospital after two days. You went home and started packing your bags. You had planned most of your trip while you were in the hospital. You just needed to confirm the dates with your hotel. When it came time to leave, Sparks and Collins wanted to drive you to the airport. They weren’t happy with your decision, but they understood why you had to do it. Green on the other hand had been avoiding you for the last week. Every time you tried to talk to him, he said he was busy, even when he wasn’t.
About a week and a half later, you had to do one last meeting before you could leave. This meant you had to be in your Dress Greens, and you would have to go to the airport in them. You hated the idea of that, but you can’t change it. After the meeting you grabbed you bags and carried them to Collins’s truck. Just as you were about to load up someone came up behind you guys.
“Room for one more?” Green was standing there, you turned around to see him.
“I don’t know, you sure you can handle me leaving like and adult now?”
“Yes. I’m sorry I was acting like a child.”
“Alright, load up.”
The ride to the airport wasn’t too bad. You were just going to miss these idiots. You started wondering if you were making the right decision, but quickly shot that down. You were, this is something you were doing for you. If you didn’t do it then you might regret it later.
Once you got to the airport, Collins parked in the lot, all of you got out and you hugged them goodbye. You went to grab your bags, but Green grabbed for them first. You looked at him confused.
“We’re going to walk you in, come on let’s go.” He said as he threw one of the bags to both Collins and Sparks.
“You don’t have to do that. I’m sure you guys have to get back.”
“No, we have the rest of the day off.” Sparks gave you a big smile.
You walked into the airport, checked your bags and got your ticket. All of you walked over to TSA, you stopped and looked at all of them.
“Well, I guess this is goodbye.” You gave them a small smile.
“No, it’s see you later. You’re not going to get away from us that easily. Even if you decide to leave.” Collins was the first to hug you.
“Yeah, no matter what you do we will always be there for you.” Sparks following behind Collins.
Green walked up to you and just pulled you into a hug.
“Let me know when you get there safely. I mean let us know when you get there.” You let out a small chuckle.
“Definitely, I will do that.” You let go of him, looking to all of them. “Stay safe boys. If I find out something happens to any of you, I will personally come back just to kick all of your asses.”
“Yes Ma’am.” They all said in unison, they gave you a salute.
You turned away and walked through security. They stayed there until you were completely out of sight. You had a 10-hour flight ahead of you. you were simply happy that you had nobody sitting next to you.
You had decided to go to Hawaii to visit your parents. They had retired to Hawaii about 5 years ago. You had lived there when you were in your teens. It was your favorite place that you had been moved too. You even made some friends there, that you still keep in contact now.
You haven’t seen them in a long time. Even though they only retired 5 years ago, it has been many more since you have seen them. You have been busy doing missions, training recruits, etc. You weren’t even able to go to their retirement party because you were overseas. You have tried to stay in contact with them, but those phone calls were few and far between.
Now you were sitting outside of their house. You didn’t tell them you were coming, you wanted it to be a surprise. You just wished that you could have changed out of your dress greens. You stepped out of your rental truck, adjusted your uniform before closing the door. As you were walking up to the front door you saw the curtains move, as if someone were watching you. Once you got to the door you rang the doorbell, you slightly turned away from it to look around their neighborhood.
The door opened behind you, as you turned back around you kept your head down slightly.
“Please don’t tell me something happened to Y/n.” Shit…
“I knew I should have changed.” You looked up to see your mother with tears in her eyes.
“Oh, you ass.” She immediately wrapped you in a hug. She ended up hitting you in the back while she was crying on your shoulder. “You sacred the shit out of me!”
“I’m sorry mom. I didn’t really think about it.” You looked up to see your father coming up behind you mother.
“Pipsqueak?” you mother let you go; you were in your father’s arms almost instantly.
“Dad.”
“What are you doing here? Not that we aren’t happy to see you, I figured you would be training or saving the world.” He let you go to pull you over to have a seat. You mother sat down next to you while your father sat in his chair off to the side of you.
“I decided to take leave for the first time, instead of being forced to take it.” You took your cover off and placed it in your lap. “Actually, I have been thinking of transferring to the reserves. I want to see what the world has to offer, outside of combat boots and fatigues.”
“Woah! Are you serious? Y/n, the Marines has been what you wanted to do ever since you were little. Are you sure you want to do this?” Your father sat forward in his seat to look directly in your eyes.
“I know it has. It’s just after my last mission, I started thinking about life and all the things I wanted out of it. I absolutely love the Marines and I wouldn’t trade my experiences for anything in the world. It’s just in this moment I just need to figure things out for me.”
“So, are you going to move to Hawaii?”
“I think so. This was one of my favorite places to be growing up. I even called Kono and Chin to see what they were up too. I’m going to meet them after I came to see you guys, at ‘Iolani Palace. I figured while I was there, I would pick up an application for HPD.”
You could see that your mother didn’t like the idea of you going from one high risk job to another. She just wanted you to be safe.
“Are you sure HPD is where you want to go? If you are trying to get away from all of that, I don’t think it’s a good idea.”
“It’s a lot less risk than the Marines mom. Plus, it’s something that I can learn fast and adding my military background it’s one of the few jobs I would be good at.” You turned to her giving her had a reassuring squeeze.
You stayed with your parents for a few hours before you needed to leave. Once again you didn’t have time to change before going to see Kono and Chin like you had hoped. Your mother barely let you out the door, she made you promise to come back for dinner and to bring Chin and Kono if you could.
You walked into the Palace; you didn’t really know where to go. You saw a few officers and civilians around. You walked up to the officer behind the desk to ask where to go.
“Excuse me.” You quickly looked at his name plate. “Sgt. Lukela, I’m looking for Officer Chin Ho Kelly. He didn’t give me many instructions on where to go.” He looked up and was instantly taken back. He stood up before speaking.
“Yes, he is a part of the Five-0 task force. They are on the second floor, there are signs that lead you to them. I could call and have her here in a few minutes, or I could escort you there.” He looked at you with a nervous smile.
“No that’s okay Sir. I’m sure I can find it.” You were about to leave but turned back. “Are you alright?”
“Yes Ma’am, just wasn’t expecting to see a Marine in here today.”
“Oh, I didn’t mean to make you nervous. I just didn’t have time to change out of my uniform.” You gave him a quick goodbye before heading up the stairs.
You followed the signs just like he had told you, you came to a couple of glass doors. You saw someone inside, but you could instantly tell it wasn’t Chin. This guy was shorter and had blonde hair. He looked up from a table to see you, he started walking over to you. You opened the door and walk in.
“Can I help you?” You could see him look you up and down.
“I am looking for Officers Kelly and Kalakaua. I’m supposed to meet them here somewhere.” You gestured around.
“There are in their offices. I’ll get them.” He turned away to go to the offices.
“Thank you…”
“Danny.” He said turning back with a smile.
“Thank you, Danny. I’m Y/n.”
He walked into an office in the left, you saw Chin’s head pop up with a large grin on his face. Danny moved to another office, while Chin got up from his desk to come out. Kono did the same, she even ran around Danny to get to you faster. She came running to you and pulling you into a hug. Chin came and hugged you both. Danny came up behind them.
“Y/n, I have missed you!” Kono practically yelled in your ear.
“It’s good to have you back here.” Chin joined in on the hug.
“Guys, umm I’m still not fully healed yet.”
They quickly let go of you, you grabbed your shoulder. You massaged the spot for a few seconds, before looking up at them.
“Sorry.” They said simultaneously.
“Are you alright?” Danny chimed in.
“I’m good, just recovering from being shot twice.” You said with a blank face, just to see his reaction. He looked shocked to say the least. You laughed a little. “I was in Afghanistan not too long ago; a few things didn’t go as planned. The important thing is that we made it out alive and we completed our mission.”
“Oh, well I hope you heal quickly. Also thank you for your service.”
“Thank you, and it’s my honor to serve.”
“Maybe we will see you around here again before you have to leave.”
“That could be fun, but I’m hoping to be around for a while.”
“Awesome. I have to get back to work before Steve comes back, but it was nice to meet you Y/n.”
“You too Danny.” He walked away and you looked back to Chin and Kono. “So, how have you guys been?”
“We are good, but we want to hear about you. How long are you here for?”
“Well, I’m here for two weeks then I go to D.C. for a little while. Then I’m back for good-ish.”
“What does that mean? Are you leaving the marines?” they had confused looks on their faces.
“Not exactly.”
You explained your plan to them. Telling them nothing is set in stone. You were going to see how the two weeks go first before making a final decision. At this point after seeing them and your parents your mind was made up. You were going to transfer to the reserves, that way if you were really needed you could still help.
You talked to them for a while. You had gotten Chin and Kono to agree to come to dinner. You made them promise not to bring up your last mission. You didn’t tell your mother the full story because you knew she would be upset. Your father knew but he knows better than to tell her what happens out in the field. Even though on some level you knew your mother knew, she was a Marine and she knows what can happen.
Just as you were leaving you asked Chin about where you could get an application for HPD. He walked you back down to the main desk and asked the officer you talked to earlier for one. After getting it, you quickly filled it out and turned it back in. Chin had to go back to work, you said goodbye to him. As you were walking out of the Palace, you weren’t paying attention and accidently bumped into someone.
“I am so sorry! Are you okay?” You took a step back and looked up at the person.
“No, it was my fault, I wasn’t paying attention.” He looked down at you, pausing for a moment before extending his hand. “I’m Steve.”
“I’m Y/n.” You shook his hand. The two of you held on a little too long, before you broke the trance. “Umm, I’ glad you’re okay but I do have to get going.”
You let go if his hand and started moving around him. He just watched you walk away. You turned back to see him staring at you. He gave you a wave, you waved back, before proceeding to your truck.
You went to your hotel, checked in before going to your room. You sent a text to your boys to let them know that you made it to Hawaii in one piece. They all got back to you saying have a good time and stay safe. You made sure to hang up your uniform before taking a long-awaited shower. You just stood there washing away the day, you finally had a chance to really relax. After your shower you got dressed in jeans, a tank top and a flannel to top it all off. You grabbed your gun and placed it in its holster, you never went anywhere without it. Then you grabbed your backpack and your keys before heading out the door to your parents’ house.
When you pulled up in front of their house, you could see Kono’s car pulling up behind you. Chin was also with her; they got out of her car and came over to you.
“You ready for this?” Chin questioned when he was you fidgeting.
“Yeah, it’s just weird being here and not in some foreign country fighting for something.”
“It’s going to take some getting used to. I think its weirder to see you in normal clothes. I think I have only ever seen you in a uniform.” Kono and Chin let out a small laugh.
“I know.” You put your arm around Kono. “I am loving it; I feel so free.” You moved your arms around just to emphasize how free you felt.
“Are you guys just going to stand outside all night? Or are you going to come in and have dinner with us?” Your father called from the doorway.
“We are coming Dad.” You looked to your friends. “We better go before he locks that door.” You quickly moved towards the door with Kono and Chin close behind.
You stayed there for a few hours. Your father was asking for stories. Of course, you left certain details out, for your mother sanity. You asked Chin and Kono about Five-0. They told you all about it. Then they talked about the people they work with, their boss Steve McGarrett and how he was a Navy Seal. Then they talked about Danny who transferred here from New York to be closer to his daughter Grace. You told your parents that you had put in your application for HPD. Your father was excited for you. Once again, you could see your mothers head drop at the thought.
You spent a few more hours there talking and having a good time. When it started getting to late Chin Kono and yourself said your goodbyes. When you left the house, you walked them to Kono’s car.
“Well, that was fun.” You smiled at them.
“Yeah, it was. We should get together again before you go to D.C.” Chin said as he gave you a hug.
“Definitely.”
“We could invite Danny and Steve. Since you are trying to get a job at HPD, you will be seeing them every once in a while.” Kono gave you a long hug.
“Sure, that sounds good.” After that you said your goodbyes and left.
Once you arrived at your hotel, you put your gun in the drawer of the nightstand. Then proceed to get ready for bed. You change into a pair of shorts, leaving the tank top on. You grabbed your laptop and climbed into bed. You started looking for apartments and houses. You may have made your decision, but you still have a lot of things to consider and things to do.
You have found a few apartments and houses that you are willing to go see. At this point you were leaning more towards the apartments; just in case you are called back to duty. One of the few pluses of being in the Marines is that you traveled so much, which means you don’t have a lot of things. So, if you have to pack up and leave it is going to be easy for you.
After a few hours, you finally decided it was time to stop and try to get some sleep. You have a lot to do in the next few days. You turned off your laptop and set it on the bedside table. After making sure your alarms were set and your phone was plugged in, you laid down and slowly fell asleep.

Trailblazing Hollywood Architect Paul R. Williams, Part One
“I wanted to prove that I, as an individual, deserved a place in the world.” – Paul R. Williams
Architect Paul R. Williams is usually noted as “Architect to the Stars” because of the many Hollywood Stars on his roster of clients. To remember Paul R, Williams solely as the builder of elegant mansions would do his legacy a great disservice. Williams was the first successful African-American architect in Los Angeles, and first African-American member of the American Institute of Architects (AIA) (1), and “the first African-American of its gold medal”(2). He faced the same prejudice that talented, ambitious members of his race faced in the United States early part of the Twentieth Century. Despite this he was responsible for some of the most recognized and important buildings and homes in Los Angeles. Williams’ legacy is endangered, as many of his buildings have been demolished, his working papers tragically destroyed, and the architect himself, unfortunately, is now mostly forgotten.

The Early Life of Paul Revere Williams
Paul Revere Williams was born in 1894 in Los Angeles to Chester and Lila Williams. The Williams moved to Los Angeles the previous year with their young son, Chester, as Mr. and Mrs. Williams suffered from tuberculosis and were searching for a cure (3). Chester senior’s efforts running a fruit stand were unsuccessful; he died of his tuberculosis in 1896. Lila succumbed to the same disease two years later when Paul was only four years old. Now orphaned, Paul and his brother were sent to live in separate foster homes (1,4). Although separated, Chester and Paul remained close until Chester also died of tuberculosis in his early twenties (3).
Paul was later adopted by “C.D. and Emily Clarkson, who were highly supportive, educationally and, later, artistically, of him”(4). Young Paul helped his adopted family financially by working as a newsboy selling papers in downtown Los Angeles.3
Young Williams’s Education and Early Challenges
Paul attended the highly selective Polytechnic High School” (3) where “a teacher advised him against pursuing a career in architecture because white clients would not want a Black architect” (6), and he would not be able to find “enough Black clients” (4) in Los Angeles to provide him with a decent living (2,4). Paul believed in himself and his talents, securing internships and jobs at prominent, local architecture firms immediately after high school in 1912, despite prevailing racial prejudice (1).
Williams first studied at the Los Angeles Beaux-Arts School and then went on the University of Southern California’s School of Engineering to study architecture (4). In 1919 he became the first African-American graduate of that institution (1).
During this time, Williams met Della May Givens through a church youth group. Della had previously dated William’s older brother. In 1917, Paul and Della married and eventually had two daughters. Della took full responsibility for running all aspects of the household and for raising the girls, allowing Williams to focus all of his energy on his career (3).
Paul R. Williams Begins His Career
Williams gained recognition for his work by entering several architectural competitions, winning The White Pine Architectural Competition in 1918, and The Los Angeles Brick Company Competition the following year (1). The competitions gave Williams the opportunity to promote his work without a link to his identity as a Black man (3). Williams worked for architects “Wilbur Cook, Reginald Johnson, Arthur Rolland Kelly, and John C. Austin” (1). Austin was influential not only creatively, but also socially, Austin’s powerful contacts in Los Angeles society of the time allowed his young protégé networking opportunities (3).

William’s first influential position came in 1920, “struggling to gain attention, he served  on the first Los Angeles City Planning Commission (6). The following year he was licensed as an architect in California (5), and in 1922 Williams opened his firm, ten years after his high school teacher tried to discourage him to become an architect (3). He “became the first Black member of the national [American Institute of Architects]  AIA in 1923” (5).
During the 1920s, the local economy was booming due to the film industry in Hollywood. Many of the stars and movie executives had come from other locations to working Los Angeles, and some, like Williams, had belonged to ethnic groups that been looked down upon by white Anglo-Saxon America. They were willing to give the brilliant architect the opportunity to design their dream homes. The iconic silent film star Lon Cheney was one or Williams’s first Hollywood celebrity clients. Sadly, Cheney died of pneumonia before he could move into the home. One of William’s most notable homes designed in this period was the Jack Atkins House. Since the house was heavily influenced by English manor houses, it was rented out often for use in films. The home appeared in the film Topper (1937). Tragically, the house was destroyed in 2005 in a fire that occurred during renovations (3).

Williams Becomes the Master of Many Styles
Williams’ often received criticism for not embracing the architectural styles of the day, much like another California architect Julia Morgan.  The main reason was that he felt fortunate to have his clients and wanted to build homes for them directed by their needs and tastes. Also during that era, it was very unlikely that his white clients would tolerate being dictated to by a black architect. Williams, therefore, became adept at many styles and mastered them all, much like Julia Morgan had done (3).

“Modern interpretations of Tudor-revival, French Chateau, Regency, French Country, and Mediterranean architecture were all within his vernacular” (6). The 1922 George Holmes Kinsey house was built in the Spanish Mission style, as was the 1923 John B. Browne House and the 1924 Frank Putnam Flint House. Williams’ Jay Paley House (1935) was influenced by English Georgian architecture. The Douglas Mitchell House (1924) is a fine example of Williams’ mastery of American Colonial architecture. Williams built several homes in 1926 that exhibit English Tudor influences: The Howard T. Wayne House, The Crowell and Katherine Havens Beech House, the Philip Rothman House, and the John L. and Janette Adams Garner House (4).

Although Williams’s homes reflect many styles, there are features that are unique to his homes. Many homes feature elegant grand staircases (for stars who wish to make a dramatic entrance). Circle and curve motifs appear in most homes, and can be seen in the use of curving staircases and circular windows. Williams liked to employ tall narrow windows in many homes in order to bring more of the southern California light into the interiors (3).
