Wilder (Transformers)
Wilder is a fictional character from the Transformers series. He is a Decepticon Headmaster tracker who turns into a winged wolf-monster. He shouldn't be confused with Fangry, looks identical, but is a separate character.
Transformers: Generation 1
In Japan the toy of Fangry was released as Wilder, one of the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors as part of the series Transformers: Super-God Masterforce. A completely different character in Japan, Wilder was a human who was given a Transtector body by the Decepticon, and could become the head of its robot mode.
Wilder was described as a former biker gang leader who had a rivalry with the Autobot headmaster Junior Go Shooter. He was highly intelligent and malicious, keeping a level head in battle, but did possess a code of honor.
Animated series
Wilder is leader of the Decepticon Headmaster Juniors in the Masterforce series. He first appeared in episode #4 called "Birth of the Headmaster Juniors."
When the Decepticon leader Devil Z betrayed him and the other Decepticon Headmasters, the Autobot Ginrai saved him and Bullhorn from being killed by Devil Z's bomb.
The Wheel of Time
The Wheel of Time is a series of high fantasy novels written by American author James Oliver Rigney Jr., under the pen name Robert Jordan. Originally planned as a six-book series, The Wheel of Time spanned fourteen volumes, in addition to a prequel novel and a companion book. Jordan began writing the first volume, The Eye of the World, in 1984. It was published in January 1990.
The author died in 2007 while working on what was planned to be the twelfth and final volume in the series. He prepared extensive notes so another author could complete the book according to his wishes. Fellow fantasy author and long-time Wheel of Time fan Brandon Sanderson was brought in to complete the final book, but during the writing process it was decided that the book would be far too large to be published in one volume and would instead be published as three volumes:The Gathering Storm (2009), Towers of Midnight (2010), and A Memory of Light (2013).
The series draws on numerous elements of both European and Asian mythology, most notably the cyclical nature of time found in Buddhism and Hinduism, the metaphysical concepts of balance and duality, and a respect for nature found in Daoism. Additionally, its creation story has similarities to Christianity's "Creator" (Light) and Shai'tan, "The Dark One" (Shaytan is an Arabic word that in religious contexts is used as a name for the Devil). It was also partly inspired by Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace (1869).

DeWayne Bruce
DeWayne Bruce (born May 14, 1962) is a professional wrestler, best known by his ring name, Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker and his nickname Sarge. (Despite his nickname, he has never actually served in the military.) Bruce was a trainer at the WCW Power Plant wrestling school. Bruce worked primarily for World Championship Wrestling.
Professional wrestling career
World Championship Wrestling
As Sergeant Buddy Lee Parker, DeWayne Bruce wrestled in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in a tag-team with partner Lieutenant James Earl Wright, as The State Patrol. He later became a member of the Dungeon of Doom, under the short-lived identity of Braun The Leprechaun before again being repackaged as "Military Man" Jack Boot.
Boot only lasted a short time before Buddy Lee Parker returned, but this time as a Military Sergeant. This was Bruce's final wrestling persona, later simply going by Sarge. After his semiretirement, he became the head trainer at the official WCW wrestling school, the Power Plant. He would occasionally pop up on WCW Saturday Night as a jobber during the end of his career, but he received praise by WCW commentators crediting him for training many of the highly popular superstars of WCW, most notably Bill Goldberg. Despite losing most of his televised matches, Bruce scored a few notable victories throughout his career (although mostly against other jobbers). Bruce had respect from his peers, and was known to lose matches against newcomers to help elevate younger talent. Towards the very end of WCW, Bruce was involved in a somewhat major match, in which he teamed with his former trainee, Bill Goldberg, to face the team of Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell (then known as Totally Buffed).
Sarge (album)
Sarge is a 1976 album by Delroy Wilson, originally released on the LTD label in Jamaica and the Charmers label in the UK. The album was produced and arranged by Lloyd Charmers, and featured the biggest selling reggae single of 1976, Wilson's cover version of Bob Marley's "I'm Still Waiting". The single's success led to a similarly themed album, with Wilson singing versions of well-known songs over Charmers' arrangements, including covers of "My Conversation", "My Cecilia" and "Too Late for the Learning".Sarge was chosen as one of 100 "essential reggae CDs" by Rough Guides and is widely regarded as Wilson's best album.
The album was re-issued in 1986 on Trojan Records.
