"They're teenagers. The last thing they're interested in is what their parents are up to."
―Catherine Wilder to Geoffrey Wilder[src]
Catherine Wilder (née Henderson) was a successful lawyer and a member of PRIDE. She was the wife of Geoffrey Wilder and the mother of Alex Wilder. Like the other members of PRIDE, she took part in the ritualistic sacrifices meant to revive Jonah, expressing less discomfort about it than her husband did.
Upon discovering that Molly Hernandez might have witnessed such a sacrifice, she tried to confirm her suspicions, although Hernandez at first managed to convince Catherine that she did not know anything. Catherine plotted with Geoffrey and Hernandez's adoptive parents Dale and Stacey Yorkes to send her away to Montebello, but this was ultimately discovered by Jonah. When her son Alex went missing after a confrontation between PRIDE and the Runaways, and facing Jonah's contempt towards them, Catherine decided to leave PRIDE and to find her son with the only help of Geoffrey.
Despite this decision, Catherine and her husband soon rejoined PRIDE to collaborate in the search for the Runaways. In an attempt to clear their name, Catherine framed Darius Davis for the Assassination of Destiny Gonzalez and murdered him, hoping that the teenagers would come home if they were no longer wanted by the LAPD. However, her initiative backfired on two accounts: not only did it cause her husband to resent her for having killed an old friend, but it also brought more concern to PRIDE as an alibi for Davis was provided by his sister-in-law Livvie. Eventually, Catherine was arrested with her husband after her son Alex did the same than what she had done for Davis; framing her and Geoffrey for an unresolved crime.
Joining PRIDE
Catherine Henderson was the legal counselor of Geoffrey Wilder, the head of the Crips gang who had been imprisoned in the Los Angeles Penitentiary for the murder of Osiris. During one of her visits, Henderson discovered that Wilder had been approached by Jonah, who offered to buy a land from Wilder. Wilder refused to simply sell the land, but wanted a real partnership with Jonah, which the latter refused as a collaboration with an inmate would be too problematic. Therefore, Henderson suggested that Wilder could be released within a month: she told Wilder to convince his friend and fellow inmate Darius Davis to take responsibility for his crime.[1]
Thanks to Henderson, Wilder was effectively released from prison. Henderson married him and took the name of Catherine Wilder. Later, both Catherine and Geoffrey were recruited into PRIDE by Jonah. Jonah offered them a land located in Brentwood, an upper part of Los Angeles, showing them a secret basement on which the Wilders built the luxuous Wilder Mansion.[2]
Rite of Blood
First Sacrifices
Along with the rest of PRIDE, Catherine took part to the rituals which were meant to restore Jonah. However, when she and the others gathered for the first time for the sacrifice of Brooks Watten, Catherine did not know what would happen. It was only after Watten was converted into pure energy that she understood what Jonah demanded. Catherine remained mostly silent as the others discussed the consequences of their actions and Geoffrey Wilder discovered a camera, meaning that they had to carry on the rituals to avoid the release of the footage.[2]
As a lawyer, Catherine established Alice's and Gene Hernandez's will.[3] She attended the Hernandezes' funeral with the rest of PRIDE and discussed with Janet Stein what future awaited Molly Hernandez.[4]
Destiny Gonzalez's Sacrifice
"Being down there with Darius, it made me realize how far I've come from my old life in so many ways."
"That's a good thing."
"But what we did tonight... The zip code may have changed, and, yeah, I traded my old crew for some rich white folk... Killing is still killing."
"Come on, now, Geoffrey. We can't think of it that way."
―Geoffrey Wilder and Catherine Wilder[src]
Catherine became worried by the fact that her son Alex grew more and more introvert since the death of his friend Amy Minoru. Despite Alex claiming that he was perfecly fine on his own, Catherine agreed with her husband Geoffrey who pressured Alex in inviting his former friends to the Wilder Mansion. She then received a phone call, prompting her to leave her husband and son in the kitchen to answer it.[5] Once Alex left for school, Catherine and Geoffrey discussed about how he had been affected by Minoru's death, although Geoffrey reassured Catherine and told her that Alex would overcome his grief, just like she had helped him overcome his criminal past.[6]
Catherine and Geoffrey then went into the basement of the mansion to prepare for the upcoming PRIDE meeting. On their way, Catherine was called by Alex, who told her that he would try and invite his former friends over, which Catherine approved. As she hung up, Catherine reassured Geoffrey regarding the fact of perpetrating the Rite of Blood with the teenagers inside the mansion, claiming that they were of no risk.[5] As they set up the ritual room, Geoffrey received a phone call and informed Catherine that Darius Davis had taken over the PRIDE Construction Site, prompting Catherine to tell her husband to resolve the issue in order to keep the construction on its feet before PRIDE were informed of this interference.[6]
Later that day, Catherine took part to the PRIDE meeting with the other members and expressed her continued bewilderment at the idea of Dale and Stacey Yorkes being a part of it. She then saw her son Alex returning home without his friends.[5] As the meeting went on, Catherine read the file on Destiny Gonzalez provided by Leslie Dean and was surprised when Geoffrey expressed discomfort at the idea of sacrificing her. Still, the sacrifice was kept on schedule and Catherine went into the basement with the other members of PRIDE, wearing her traditional red robe.
The Wilder parents go to investigate
Catherine kept her role beside the Abstract while Dean left to bring Gonzalez to them. She helped the other members of PRIDE to strip Gonzalez naked to prepare her for the sacrifice. As Gonzalez was put into the Dematerialization Box and struggled to get out of fear of what was happening, Catherine told Victor Stein to close the Box and initiate the sacrifice. However, once it was over, they saw a flash of light. Fearing that they might have been seen, Catherine and Geoffrey put back their normal clothes and went to the guesthouse, where they saw Alex and his friends playing together.
Catherine and Geoffrey returned to the sacrifice room and explained that the teenagers were there, although their presence was probably unrelated to the flash and the ensuing power cut in the mansion. Catherine then joined everyone else in the mansion's hall, discussing with Molly Hernandez. She then watched as everyone left the mansion and expressed her satisfaction at the idea that Alex had reconnected with his friends. Later, Catherine found Geoffrey in his office, who was still shaken by the recent sacrifice and Davis' return in his life, but Catherine managed to comfort him.[6]
Molly Hernandez's Risk
"If she was fooling around in my study, she could've found the stairs. Or maybe she never went near 'em. We got no way of being sure."
"That's not true, and you know it."
Catherine was told by Geoffrey Wilder that he had found Molly Hernandez's hairpin in his study, making them suspect that Hernandez could have discovered the secret stairs and witnessed the sacrifice of Destiny Gonzalez. This prompted Catherine to consider using the Synnergy Serum on Hernandez to wipe out her memories, although Geoffrey advised her against it, reminding how the serum had affected Frank Dean. However, Catherine tried to reassure her husband, promising that she would first subtly interrogate Hernandez to determine whether she had actually seen anything.
Catherine went to the Timely Coffee and found Hernandez sitting alone, listening to music. She tried to ask Hernandez why she was in the study, but Hernandez told her that she had to go to the bathroom. Catherine followed her shortly after, only to discover that Hernandez had actually escaped from the café. She called Geoffrey to inform him of the situation and found Hernandez seconds later, who had fallen asleep due to having used her superhuman strength to leave the bathroom through the window.
Catherine took Hernandez to her car and waited for the girl to wake up. She then asked her whether everything was fine and Hernandez admitted that she had gone into Geoffrey's study the night before. Catherine slowly grabbed her hidden syringe of Synnergy Serum, but Hernandez then explained that she had been sent by her friends in order to find some alcohol for the party. Catherine chose to believe her and reassured Hernandez as she began complaining about how others pitied her and how she felt she was a burden for her new family. Catherine promised that whenever Hernandez would be ready, she would tell her about her biological parents Gene and Alice.[4]
New Sacrifice
Wilder attends a PRIDE meeting
"You mentioned he'd been shot. I was just wondering what happened."
"I'm sorry. This isn't one of your grass-fed, free-range sacrifices, but whatever Geoffrey did, just be glad he did it."
―Leslie Dean and Catherine Wilder[src]
Catherine joined an emergency PRIDE meeting in the Wilder Mansion which was held after they discovered that the sacrifice of Destiny Gonzalez had failed and that the girl's body had been discovered on the beach. During the meeting, she questioned Victor Stein's reliability since he was the one who had failed to his task. PRIDE then decided to kidnap another person to be sacrificed in Gonzalez's place.[7]
Later that day, Catherine went to tell her husband Geoffrey that the dinner was ready and found him seemingly troubled by a phone call. She asked him what it was about, but Geoffrey simply answered that it was a mistake and that he had to go out for a time, leaving Catherine unaware about the fact that their son Alex had actually been kidnapped by the Crips.
Wilder takes part to Andre Compton's sacrifice
Catherine remained in the Wilder Mansion, waiting for her husband and son to come home. She was called by Geoffrey and asked him whether he knew where Alex was, to which Geoffrey replied that their son was fine. Catherine was then informed that Geoffrey had captured Andre Compton, a member of the Crips, to be sacrificed, but that they had to hurry as he was heavily wounded. Therefore, Catherine summoned a PRIDE meeting, and they gathered at the Church of Gibborim Executive Office to perform the sacrifice.
During the ceremony, Leslie Dean asked Catherine about Compton's wounds, but Catherine simply replied that she should have been glad that they had brought someone. The Wilders then returned to their home, and Catherine overheard Geoffrey and Alex arguing about what had happened during the latter's kidnapping. Catherine arrived as Alex left his bedroom, and Geoffrey apologized to her for having kept her in the dark. Catherine told her husband that they could not afford to keep secrets between them and that they had to be ready for the next time Darius Davis would come across them.[1]
Protecting Molly Hernandez
Wilder at the PRIDE gala with the other members of PRIDE
"Back in the day, I prepared the Hernandezes' will. This morning, I remembered something from it."
―Catherine Wilder to Dale and Stacey Yorkes[src]
Catherine went to the PRIDE gala in the Wizard Headquarters where she joined the other members of PRIDE to celebrate their so-called project of building a new community school in Los Angeles. During the party, she received text messages from Molly Hernandez insisting to know about her parents and indicating that time was running out, something Catherine was troubled by. When her husband Geoffrey noticed her trouble, Catherine assured him that she was fine, although she thought that their son Alex was avoiding them.
Wilder discusses with Molly Hernandez
Catherine then listened to Tina Minoru's speech and was shocked when Victor Stein took her microphone and publicly revealed the ongoing affair between Janet Stein and Robert Minoru before fainting. While the other members of PRIDE looked after Victor and the party approached its end, Catherine met with Hernandez and inquired about the urgency of knowing about her parents. During the conversation, Hernandez inadvertently revealed that she had witnessed the sacrifice, but before Catherine could react, Stacey Yorkes arrived and took Hernandez away. As Geoffrey approached her, Catherine told him that Hernandez knew about the rituals.[2]
Fearing that their son Alex could also know about the sacrifices, Catherine searched through his room while he was under the shower, but without finding anything. She was joined by Geoffrey, who told her that Alex had a crush for Nico Minoru. When Alex got out of the bathroom, Catherine told him that they would prepare for the Atlas Academy open house and offered to discuss anything before the events, but Alex replied that he had nothing in mind. Catherine then noticed that a process was running on Alex's laptop, but before she could check it out, Alex took his laptop and left the house.
Remaining with Geoffrey, Catherine resolved to find clear evidence that Alex knew about PRIDE's secrets before moving forward. They then discussed about Hernandez and how they should deal with the matter, which involved informing her adoptive parents, Stacey and Dale Yorkes. They tried to meet them at the Yorkes Residence, but Stacey refused to open the door, pretending that they were in the middle of a dangerous experiment - actually, Dale was suffering an euphoria spike due to Jonah's Serum - and suggesting they discussed at the open house.
Wilder discusses about Molly Hernandez with the Yorkeses
Catherine and Geoffrey met with the Yorkeses at the open house and revealed that Hernandez knew about PRIDE's rituals. Catherine disclosed their plan which Catherine had devised reviewing the Hernandezes' will: sending Hernandez to live with her cousin Graciela Aguirre in Montebello so that she would be away from PRIDE. Although the Yorkeses were uneasy with this plan, they eventually agreed to comply.[3]
PRIDE Challenges
"We don't know the situation yet. It was just one text. One word."
"That's enough. The last time we got a text with that message, the Hernandezes were found in pieces. I should've done something about that, about her back then."
"Let's just keep it cool, Geoffrey, until we know what's up."
―Catherine Wilder and Geoffrey Wilder[src]
Along with Geoffrey Wilder, Catherine was informed that Victor Stein had been shot in the Stein Mansion. They drove to the location, with Catherine urging her husband to stay calm until they knew what was happening and were quickly brought up to date: Victor had been shot by Janet Stein in order to protect their son Chase. Catherine advised Janet to take Chase upstairs while she remained with her husband, as well as Tina and Robert Minoru, to deal with the situation. Since Victor was on the verge of dying, they decided to call Dale and Stacey Yorkes for help.
Wilder helps PRIDE to save Victor Stein
Once the Yorkeses arrived, and despite Catherine being highly uncomfortable with the bleeding wound, she helped Stacey to save Victor, who still fell into a coma. Leslie Dean then arrived and told them that she would call her husband Frank for help, prompting Catherine to ask whether they would reintegrate him into PRIDE. However, despite the use of the Healing Gloves, Victor succumbed to his wound, and before PRIDE could hide the body, Jonah, who had been alerted by Tina, arrived as well.
Jonah explained that he would use the Dematerialization Boxes to revive Victor, but that he needed someone to sacrifice for this. Catherine asked him who he had in mind and Jonah answered that he would have Janet give her life for her husband's. However, Janet tried to convince the others to pick someone else and told them that she had done the only thing to do, claiming that none of them would have had the courage to face Victor. When Catherine said that they would never know, she was abruptly told by Janet to shut up.
Wilder tells Janet Stein to get into the Dematerialization Box
As PRIDE kept arguing about who should give their life, Jonah threatened to kill all of them as well as their children. This caused Catherine to panic and to order Janet to quickly get into the Dematerialization Box. After Dale briefly increased the disorder by picking up a gun, Janet eventually agreed to sacrifice herself, but required to say goodbye to Chase, something Catherine agreed to, stating that they would all want that. However, this was proven irrelevant as Robert decided to give his life instead. Catherine watched as Robert got into the Box, only for Tina to destroy it with the Staff of One. As a result, Victor's body was kept in the remaining Box.[8]
Wilder listens to Jonah's threats
Catherine was then invited to the PRIDE Construction Site with the other members of PRIDE, where they saw the site being taken over by the Church of Gibborim with Catherine calming down her husband Geoffrey who was upset by the dismissal of his company. Later however, Catherine was summoned to an emergency PRIDE meeting in the Church of Gibborim Executive Office, where Jonah revealed that he knew about the fact that the Runaways had discovered the sacrifices and that Catherine, along with Geoffrey and the Yorkeses, had tried to send Molly Hernandez away from him.
On Jonah's orders, Catherine and Geoffrey returned to the Wilder Mansion to try and find their son Alex. They figured out that he was gone and that he had stolen an access card to the construction site. Catherine joined the other members of PRIDE to the site, where they were confronted by the Runaways, who displayed incredible abilities, much to Catherine's surprise.[9] As Jonah joined the fight, Catherine unsuccessfully tried to convince her son to stay with them, but he fled with the other Runaways, except for Karolina Dean who was captured by Jonah.[10]
Leaving PRIDE
Wilder suggests finding Karolina Dean
"That's it! We don't work for him anymore. Consequences be damned."
―Catherine Wilder[src]
Following this confrontation with the Runaways, Catherine and Geoffrey Wilder went to the Minoru Mansion to discuss the recent developments, including Karolina Dean's powers and the fact that Jonah had lied to them all along. Tina Minoru also revealed that it was Leslie Dean who had perpetrated the Assassination of Gene and Alice Hernandez. They then talked about how they could try and protect their children who were on the run, and Catherine suggested finding Karolina Dean in order to question her and determine the Runaways' whereabouts.
Geoffrey and Catherine Wilder decide to leave PRIDE
To that end, Catherine and Geoffrey went to the Church of Gibborim Executive Office, where they met with Jonah. They requested to see Karolina, but Jonah refused, claiming that Karolina was too weak to speak to them. As Catherine and Geoffrey kept insisting, Jonah's tone became more threatening. Surrounded by members of the Church of Gibborim, Catherine and Geoffrey resolved to leave the place, but Catherine angrily decided that they would have nothing more to do with either Jonah or PRIDE to find their son Alex, to which her husband agreed. As they left, they were unaware that they walked right by Alex, who was hiding from them.
Making good on this decision, Catherine and Geoffrey refused to join another PRIDE meeting at the Yorkes Residence. Catherine later found her husband next to the phone in the Wilder Mansion and told him that he could not wait for it to ring. Geoffrey then told Catherine that he would make a call that would help to get the Runaways to safety, after which they should prepare to go to war.[10]
Search for Alex
Return to PRIDE
"We said we were done with PRIDE, and you sign up to be co-chair with Tina?"
Since Geoffrey Wilder had asked Flores to issue an APB for the Runaways and the LAPD had claimed to have found them, Catherine and Geoffrey joined the rest of PRIDE to the Los Angeles Police Station, expecting to be thanked for their initiative which had quickly brought results. However, it soon turned out that the teenagers who had been arrested were not the Runaways but simply decoys, and Catherine heavily criticized Flores for this work, implying that the lack of women in his unit could be a cause for such a failure.
Despite having decided to leave PRIDE, Catherine and Geoffrey went with the rest of the group to the PRIDE Headquarters, where Tina Minoru revealed that she and her husband Robert had organized a command center for them to coordinate the search for the Runaways. They then discussed about Graciela Aguirre, who had claimed on TV that she had evidence against PRIDE regarding Molly Hernandez's disappearance. Catherine insisted that Aguirre posed a risk to PRIDE's activities, prompting Dale and Stacey Yorkes, as well as the Minorus, to go and pay Aguirre a visit.
Catherine was upset when they discovered that Tina had murdered Aguirre to silence her, but they quickly moved to more pressing issues: the fact that the hole dug at the PRIDE Construction Site could cause massive earthquakes and that the thing located down the hole was alive according to the Yorkeses. As PRIDE struggled to deal with its double objective to stop Jonah and to find their children, Tina insisted that they had to work together with no secrets whatsoever and proposed to Geoffrey that he led PRIDE in these endeavors with her. Catherine was displeased that Geoffrey agreed to this and, once they were alone, confronted him about his choice, but she was convinced to go along with this change of perspective.[11]
Framing Darius Davis
"You're gonna do one more thing for him."
"Yeah, what's that?"
"Same as you did for his father. Take the rap for his murder charge."
―Catherine Wilder and Darius Davis[src]
As an earthquake struck Los Angeles, Catherine joined the rest of PRIDE to discuss whether this was linked to Jonah, and noticed that this earthquake had not triggered any massive damage. Catherine and Geoffrey Wilder then agreed to remain at the PRIDE Headquarters to monitor the video feeds in an attempt to locate the Runaways, and she mocked Geoffrey for the fact that Tina Minoru still behaved like PRIDE's only leader despite him officially being the head of PRIDE as well.
Wilder announces her intent to frame someone for the Assassination of Destiny Gonzalez
Since the monitoring gave no convincing results, Catherine decided to switch tactics and left to meet with Detective Flores in order to cancel the APB on the Runaways. She was told that this could only be done if another suspect could be identified for the Assassination of Destiny Gonzalez. She returned to inform Geoffrey of this new plan, and when he showed reluctance to frame someone innocent for the rime, Catherine replied that they did not have to pick someone innocent. As it happened, Geoffrey received a phone call from Darius Davis, who claimed that he had found their son Alex, and Catherine began to think that Davis could be a perfect target.[12]
Wilder murders Darius Davis
Catherine and Geoffrey prepared for their son to be delivered to them by Davis, packing up and preparing to leave Los Angeles with new fake IDs. Catherine also took a silenced pistol and a case of Synnergy Serum with her. However, unbeknownst to Geoffrey, Catherine decided that Davis could not be left alive because of the risk he posed to her family. Therefore, she went to the Gordon Hotel, where she knew Davis would go. She then explained that he would be considered guilty of Destiny Gonzalez's murder and shot him with her silenced pistol. She then cleaned up her fingerprints and called Flores for him to close the case of Gonzalez' death.[13]
Unsuccessful Search
Catherine and Geoffrey Wilder argue about the killing of Darius Davis
"How could you just let them go?"
"You mean how could I stop them? Why don't you ask Tina that?"
"The kids got away because Nico had the Staff."
―Leslie Dean, Geoffrey Wilder and Catherine Wilder[src]
In the next morning, after she had been informed by her husband Geoffre that their son Alex had been rescued by the Runaways, Catherine and Geoffrey returned to the PRIDE Headquarters. They had a loud argument about the fact that Catherine had murdered Darius Davis, since Geoffrey believed that Davis had always been a loyal friend to him while Catherine called this a fantasy, claiming that what she had done was no different than Geoffrey killing his leader Osiris. The argument was then interrupted by the arrival of Tina and Robert Minoru, and later the rest of PRIDE.
Catherine and Geoffrey were criticized for having kept information for themselves and let the Runaways escape, but Catherine revealed that the teenagers had been able to do so thanks to the Staff of One, who had secretly been given to Nico Minoru by Tina. Despite these arguments, Catherine remained to look for the Runaways. PRIDE figured out that the Runaways had went to a PRIDE soup kitchen and summoned Jules, who worked there, to question her, with Catherine going as far as to threaten Jules to forbid her to work at the soup kitchen. Catherine and the rest of PRIDE then interrogated Mike on a Bike, who confirmed that he had seen the Runaways.
As another earthquake hit Los Angeles, PRIDE received an alert indicating that the Runaways had been seen at Atlas Academy. Therefore, Catherine joined the rest of the group to the school in an attempt to find Alex. However, they were unable to find the teenagers.[14] Still, they quickly learned that one of her former schoolmate, Eiffel, had seen them. They had her come to the PRIDE Headquarters, but Catherine was deeply annoyed by her shallow behavior and the fact that she had brought lawyers with her. Nevertheless, PRIDE got the confirmation that the Runaways had infiltrated into the school to steal a computer.
Wilder sees Jonah bringing back Robert Minoru
PRIDE discussed about what the Runaways could do with this computer, especially regarding the PRIDE Construction Site. Catherine was then shocked to hear Dale and Stacey Yorkes revealing that they precisely had seen Jonah and Karolina Dean at the site. PRIDE surmised that this could mean that Jonah knew where the Runaways were and suggested that they could force him to disclose the information. Catherine was surprised when Robert announced that he would take on Jonah by himself, but they still let him go with it. However, Robert failed and was taken back to the PRIDE Headquarters by an extremely ill-looking Jonah, much to Catherine's complete astonishment.[15]
Missing Husband
"If you stood me up for no good reason, I'm gonna kill you. I mean, I'm gonna be really mad. I am really mad. If you have a good reason, and something has happened to you call me back. Where the hell are you?"
―Catherine Wilder on Geoffrey Wilder's voicemail[src]
Catherine listened to Jonah's story as he explained that he had gathered PRIDE in order for them to repair his spaceship and make sure that he could leave Earth without any trouble. PRIDE was promised that there would be no earthquake and that the Abstract would be left to them. Once Jonah was gone, Catherine remarked on how Jonah looked ill, hoping that he might die before his ship's launch. They then discussed about what to do, and Catherine was surprised to learn that Geoffrey Wilder had given the Abstract to Janet Stein. Since Catherine's and Geoffrey's role for PRIDE, providing the ownership of the dig site, was over, they left the PRIDE Headquarters for their own business, and as they left, Catherine advised Geoffrey to remain cautious since Jonah was still a threat.
Later in the night, Catherine called Geoffrey since he had missed an appointment. She only got his voicemail and left a worried message, fearing that something had happened to him, unaware that he had nearly been killed by Jonah.[16] Catherine called Detective Flores for assistance and searched through every hospital for Geoffrey to no avail. She thus returned to the PRIDE Headquarters, where a newly cured Jonah was meeting with PRIDE. Catherine interrogated him about Geoffrey's whereabouts, and Jonah confessed that he had intended to absorb Geoffrey but that the Runaways had rescued him.
Wilder is reunited with her husband
Upset by this reveal, Catherine remained mostly silent as Jonah reiterated his intent to leave Earth and that the whole process would be safe. She accompanied the rest of PRIDE to the construction site, and learned that the Runaways were there as well, trying to destroy the ship in the depths of the hole. As the ship was being launched, Karolina Dean, Molly Hernandez, Chase Stein and Nico Minoru got out of the hole, and they were joined by Gert Yorkes and, much to Catherine's relief, her son Alex. Geoffrey arrived as well and Catherine hugged him, confessing that she had been extremely worried about him.
Catherine and Geoffrey Wilder talk to their son Alex
A confrontation then erupted between PRIDE and the Runaways on one side and Jonah on the other side. Although she was struck by Jonah's massive attack against his opponents, Catherine did not actually take part in the battle, only witnessing PRIDE's successful attempts to destroy Jonah's spaceship, quickly followed by the apparent death of Jonah at the hands of Minoru and her Staff of One. As all danger seemed ruled out, Catherine and Geoffrey approached Alex and she asked him if he was all right, but Catherine, along with the rest of PRIDE, fell asleep due to Minoru casting a spell. When they finally woke up, the Runaways were gone once again.[17]
Unwanted Consequences
Wilder learns about Darius Davis' alibi
"PRIDE was supposed to be over."
"Only you two have dragged us all back in with this Darius crap."
"You weren't singing that tune when it got your daughter off murder charges."
―Leslie Dean, Tina Minoru and Catherine Wilder[src]
Along with the rest of PRIDE, Catherine celebrated the death of Jonah and the subsequent end of their collaboration, and declared that each family should focus on the search of their own children. However, she soon had to face the consequences of her own actions. Indeed, Catherine was alerted by Detective Flores and his right-hand-man AWOL that Darius Davis' sister-in-law Livvie had provided an alibi for Davis regarding his alleged involvement in the Assassination of Destiny Gonzalez, meaning that the case could be reopened.
Catherine ordered for the video footage provided by Livvie to be destroyed and orchestrated an Attack on Livvie in order to frighten her and make sure that she would no longer be a threat. However, Catherine soon discovered that this attack could have had an unfortunate victim: her own son Alex, who was present when the assault occurred. Catherine was heavily criticized by her husband Geoffrey for having devised such a project, which was a direct consequence of her murder of Davis without his knowledge.[18]
Catherine had to face more criticism when Flores informed PRIDE about the Runaways' recent mission at the Gordon Hotel, and how they were a risk to PRIDE's very existence. However, Catherine also rebuffed the nasty comments, claiming that she was the reason why their children were no longer wanted. While PRIDE decided that they had to prepare weapons to protect themselves against their children, Catherine was told by Geoffrey that he would take her to see Davis' wife Tamar, although Catherine strongly disagreed.
Catherine and Geoffrey went to Nana B's Residence, where Tamar lived, and learned that the Runaways, including Alex, had encountered the LAPD strike team led by AWOL. Catherine then remained mostly silent as Geoffrey spoke with Tamar, although she was visibly shaken to be confronted to the woman whose husband she had killed and who was now left with a baby to look after on her own.[19]
New PRIDE Member
"You can use PRIDE's resources to make up for what we have done."
―Catherine Wilder to Chase Stein[src]
As the new weapons developed by PRIDE were ready to be tested, Wilder joined a trial session at the Stein Mansion, during which she and the rest of PRIDE assessed the efficiency of several new pieces of equipment, including the Subsonic Wave Generator and the Multidirectional Tranquilizer Darts, on PRIDE employees Mary and Megan. They did several trials, repeatedly wiping out the young women's memories with Synnergy Serum.
Later, Wilder remarked that Chase Stein was present at the PRIDE Headquarters as he had been convinced by his father Victor to come home. They discussed PRIDE's new options with Chase coming around and Leslie Dean gone, and Wilder was willing to consider interrogating Chase once again with truth serum and wiping his memory with Synnergy Serum. However, Victor strongly opposed this and claimed that PRIDE would follow his instructions since he was the only one who had been able to convince his child to come home. Catherine attempted to reply, but her husband Geoffrey convinced her not to.
Wilder welcomes Chase Stein into PRIDE
Along with her colleagues, Wilder welcomed Chase in PRIDE, claiming that he would not regret his choice to join them, PRIDE's intent being that the Runaways returned and took the reins of PRIDE to do whatever they wanted with it.[20] She and the other members attempted to convince him to go and meet with his friends so he could persuade them to follow his path and to come home as well. When Chase remarked that PRIDE was still a group of criminals to the eyes of the Runaways, Catherine replied that the teenagers had also breached the law on several occasions.[21]
Catherine and Geoffrey Wilder chase their son Alex
"We got a call about shots fired."
"And you just assumed it was us?"
"There's a lawsuit waiting to happen."
―LAPD Officer, Geoffrey Wilder and Catherine Wilder[src]
Like the other members of PRIDE, Catherine took part in the Chase of the Runaways with the objective of finding her son Alex and bring him back home no matter the cost. She and her husband Geoffrey cruised across Los Angeles until Tina Minoru informed them that one of her drones had located Alex and directed them towards him. Although Alex was on foot, he managed to steal a car, triggering a hot pursuit in Los Angeles, and Catherine worried that Alex could die in a car crash. They eventually got out of their car as Alex had abandoned his own and ran to follow him. However, they ultimately lost him in an impasse.
Wilder is arrested by the LAPD
Upon hearing gunfire, Catherine and Geoffrey returned to their car, where they found Alex casually waiting for them. As they attempted to convince him to return home, Catherine and Geoffrey were confronted by Alex about all the people they had killed in the past years, be it the Rite of Blood victims or Darius Davis. The LAPD then arrived as Alex left and the officers found in the Wilders' car the gun just recently used by Alex to frame his own parents for an unresolved criminal case. Left with no other alternative, Catherine and Geoffrey were therefore arrested and taken into custody.[21]
Incarceration and death
This section requires expansion
"Your mom is very intimidating."
"Well, she has the conviction rate to prove it."
―Molly Hernandez and Alex Wilder[src]
A successful lawyer, Catherine was a very confident woman. Usually calm and cunning, she was dedicated to PRIDE's activities at a higher level than her husband Geoffrey was. As such, when Geoffrey showed discomfort before the sacrifice of Destiny Gonzalez, Catherine wondered why he was acting like this and, after the sacrifice, urged him not to think about what they were doing as pure and pointless crimes. Catherine's dedication to PRIDE even got her as far as considering to use the Synnergy Serum on Molly Hernandez when she suspected that she knew about the Rite of Blood, although she eventually gave up on the idea.
Despite often appearing as cold and even intimidating according to Hernandez, Catherine could show a softer side, especially towards her son Alex and his friends. She tried to do her best to make Alex's life easier after the death of his best friend Amy Minoru and she was also willing to give Hernandez details about her parents Gene and Alice whenever she would feel ready to hear it. When Catherine's suspicions regarding Hernandez having discovered PRIDE's secrets were confirmed, Catherine conspired with Geoffrey, as well as Dale and Stacey Yorkes, in order to protect Hernandez instead of reporting her to Jonah.
Although Catherine usually displayed a calm nature, she could occasionally lose her temper, particularly when the life of Alex was at stake. When Jonah threatened to kill both PRIDE and the Runaways if they failed to revive Victor Stein, Catherine angrily ordered Janet Stein to sacrifice herself. Later, when she and her husband confronted Jonah in an attempt to see Karolina Dean to find out her son's whereabouts and were subtly rebuffed, Catherine got angry and bluntly decided to leave PRIDE.
"Aside from being an assassin, she's also one of the city's top defense attorneys."
―Alex Wilder[src]
Expert Lawyer: Wilder serves as PRIDE's lawyer.
Marksman: Wilder was a skilled shooter, as she precisely shot Darius Davis in cold blood.
Wilder's suppressed pistol
Walther PPK: Wilder used this suppressed pistol to murder Darius Davis at the Gordon Hotel.
Abstract: During the Rite of Blood ceremonies, Wilder carried the Abstract, a mysterious book which was stored in the secret basement of the Wilder Mansion.
Synnergy Serum: When she learned that Molly Hernandez could have discovered the PRIDE sacrifices, Wilder retrieved a case containing a syringe and vials of Synnergy Serum. She took the syringe with her and almost used it when questioning Hernandez, but eventually gave up on the idea since Hernandez gave a plausible explanation regarding her presence near the secret passageway leading to the sacrifice room.
Wilder Mansion: Catherine and her husband Geoffrey were given the land on which they built their residence by Jonah. Catherine and Geoffrey lived in a wealthy residence where they also raised their son Alex. Secretly, the mansion also featured a secret underground sacrifice room managed by the Wilders for PRIDE to perpetrate sacrifices in order to revive Jonah. Annually, Catherine welcomed the other members of PRIDE into her house for a meeting preceding the rituals.
PRIDE Headquarters: Upon rejoining PRIDE hoping to find her son Alex, Catherine often spent time in the organization's new headquarters to monitor the city surveillance video feeds and discuss PRIDE's plans to locate the Runaways and put an end to Jonah's threat.

Architecture in History and Theory
35781 USD/year
The Architecture in History and Theory program from University of Washington provides the opportunity for architects, recent architecture graduates and other qualified individuals to pursue advanced research on the history and theory of architecture applying a variety of historical and critical lenses.

Although general faculty interests are in nineteenth and twentieth century architecture, the program is broadly conceived to encompass the architectural, cultural and political forces that have shaped the continuing discourse of modernity in architecture, including all of its contemporary manifestations.
Particular areas of faculty research include the many forms of modernity in architecture and urbanism in the traditional theatres of the West as well as the rest of the world. Subsets of these interests are: modern architecture and the decorative arts; the history and theory of preservation; architectural representation; the arts and crafts movement; and vernacular and domestic architecture. Faculty expertise also includes issues in regional and global modernity— an area of research that addresses the current demand to re-conceptualize the local-global duality and ensuing conversations of dialectical identity. Modernity in architecture is studied in both micro and macro environments. Examples of specific locations of interest include Pacific Northwest regionalism as well as colonial and postcolonial architecture in South Asia, Japan, Africa and the Middle East.
The Architecture in History and Theory program from University of Washington faculty share a dedication to providing a rigorous curriculum of historical and critical inquiry. During the first year, the students will take a core curriculum of three required classes that are intended to build their research skills and prepare them to do an advanced research project on a topic of their choice. The students will also take a variety of seminars in order to strengthen their background and refine their skills in research, historical interpretation and critical analysis. Throughout this process students work with their advisors to select the courses and seminars that best suit their research interests and to prepare a clear and focused thesis topic.

My first published book, Girl Next Door, has been a free download for several months now, and despite being downloaded a massive number of times, I haven't seen any significant improvement in my income – in fact, because it's free, I've actually had a slight income drop because sales of the other "Lesbian Temptation" books haven't compensated.
So, I'm trying out a different option.
Girl Next Door will no longer be free for the foreseeable future (although if you're really quick you could probably grab a free copy before the price change). Lesbian Liaisons, a book of companion stories, will now be included as a part of Girl Next Door and won't be on sale separately. I've also, with a massive amount of help from Mischa Eliot, made a new cover!
Girl Next Door, along with the second book in the series, One Stormy Night will now be available to Kindle Unlimited readers for free.
That's all – just a quick update!

The best of IBM 2021
This year inspired some truly remarkable innovations. Discover 12 of the best.
Jump to ... menu icon
'Eagle' heralded a 127-qubit quantum breakthrough
Breaking the 100-qubit barrier is more than a milestone-sounding accomplishment. It takes computing into totally uncharted territory. IBM's new 127-qubit processor is impossible for traditional computers to simulate reliably. By doing what classical computers can't, the massive potential — the quantum advantage, for tackling the biggest problems of our time — is clear. And awesome.
Explore the promise of next-generation computing
Skills training pledged for 30 million learners
Recognizing that a lack of skilled workers is a roadblock to economic growth around the world, IBM announced a groundbreaking global plan to expand access to more than 170 new academic and industry partnerships. Through programs like P-Tech, SkillsBuild, and STEM for Girls, these partnerships will enable people from all backgrounds to join the digital economy and build a better future for themselves and society.
Find out how IBM is closing the skills gap
Notorious disruptor hosted 'Smart Talks with IBM' podcast
Smart Talks explores new ways of approaching urgent problems in society, business and tech. The show found its voice with the help of host Malcolm Gladwell (Revisionist History), who created a space where deep thought leadership could break through the noise. Listeners heard Gladwell at his best, as he affably challenged experts to do the improbable: discuss advanced tech in relatable terms (you can explain edge computing by talking about Jamaican beef patties, it turns out). The show earned a spot on Podtrac's Top 25 New Podcasts of 2021.
IBM Research started teaching AI to write code
A multitude of unique programming languages drives our software-supported world, and many products we use rely on a jumble of several to work properly. There may be ~100 million lines of code in the car you drive, but its anti-collision sensors use a modern code that's too sophisticated to connect to the legacy code in your dashboard clock. To thrive, future tech will require greater interoperability. Enter Project CodeNet: it's a vast data set in 55 programming languages aimed at teaching AI to code — and help modernize the software we live by.
See how CodeNet will help AI-infused organizations thrive
The launch of IBM Consulting
With 110 years of experience navigating the intersections of business, technology and society, IBM has been a longtime partner to industry leaders. As organizations evolve their business models to stay in lockstep with consumers, IBM launched IBM Consulting. As one of the largest consulting firms in the world, these 150,000 consultants bring a diverse set of voices and technologies to enterprises everywhere. IBM consultants collaborate with clients to deliver outcomes and create opportunities by focusing on four disciplines: strategy, experience, technology and operations.
Let's accelerate together
An autonomous ship explored our oceans
IBM and ProMare's years of hard work and preparation came to fruition in the spring of 2021, as the Mayflower Autonomous Ship (MAS), the world's first fully autonomous vessel, embarked on its maiden voyage. Running on solar energy, captained by IBM AI, and equipped with automation and cloud technologies, MAS will explore the seas, going where humans rarely venture, to gather vital ocean data on pressing issues like global warming, pollution and impacts to marine life. Currently docked for repairs and upgrades, the Mayflower will set sail again in the spring of 2022.

The future of 'zero trust' got even more secure
IBM acquired ReaQta, a security standout with endpoint solutions that enable AI to automatically identify and manage threats, while remaining undetectable to adversaries. The move complements the new IBM QRadar XDR suite, which grants enterprise users comprehensive visibility across security tools and data sources, and ensures that all users are continually verified before gaining access to data.
See how QRadar is enabling a safer world for your data
A blueprint for ethical AI was shared with the world
We want to use AI to assist humans in making fairer choices, but that's easier said than done. On a global scale, regulatory boards are in their infancy and there is no consensus on what counts as "ethical" AI design and use. In 2021, IBM distilled years of research into five pillars of trustworthy AI, and offered tools to assess the fairness of their advanced tech. The World Economic Forum used the company as a case study in ethical-AI development.
See what trustworthy AI looks like
IBM introduced a new generation of power
As more enterprises adapt to hybrid cloud computing models, the need for agile and flexible platforms that can keep data secure is only growing. IBM announced the IBM Power E1080 server, the first in a new family of Power10-powered processors. Designed specifically for hybrid cloud environments, the server is highly secure, with 4x the encryption engines per core and bringing a frictionless, scalable experience across entire IT infrastructures. PowerE1080 offers 2.5x greater per core performance and set a new world record SAP benchmark for 8-socket systems.
Power up with Power10
New tools shored up defenses against COVID-19
As year two of the pandemic threw us more curveballs, IBM continued efforts to help us venture back into the world safely, with sophisticated contact tracing, vaccine supply chain management, a Digital Health Pass for securely verifying health and vaccination status, and IBM Research papers that investigated variants, mask effectiveness, and virus spread modeling using AI and supercomputing.

IBM committed to net-zero gas emissions by 2030
Fifty years after issuing its first formal environmental policy statement, IBM still leads the way toward a healthier planet through multiple channels, including its support of the Paris Agreement and its role as a founding member of the Climate Leadership Council. In 2021, IBM set goals to get 90% of its energy globally from renewable sources and use technologies like carbon capture to remove emissions from the environment.

At just 2nm, the smallest microchips in the world
The headline read "a new frontier for semiconductors" and that was no exaggeration. The 2 nanometer chip, which fits 50 billion transistors in a space roughly the size of a fingernail, opens the door to improved capabilities for leading-edge workloads like AI and cloud computing, security and encryption. And for cell phone batteries with quadruple the staying power.
Watch for faster devices, more accurate autonomous cars and lower carbon footprints


Martha Rosler is the first recipient of the 100K Prize, a biennial award presented by the New Foundation in Seattle to an influential, U.S.-based woman artist for her achievements in the field, and comprising a $100,000 (approx. £66,000) unrestricted cash award from the Foundation and a full year of exhibitions and public programs in Seattle.
Martha Rosler (1943, Brooklyn, New York) received an M.F.A. from the University of California, San Diego and has taught at the Städelschule in Frankfurt and at Rutgers University in New Jersey. Her work has been included in major exhibitions, including the 50th Venice Biennale; 2004 Taipei Biennial; Documentas 7 and 12, Kassel, and several Whitney Biennials, New York, and she was the subject a retrospective at MoMA in 2012. Rosler was awarded the Spectrum International Prize in Photography for 2005, the Anonymous Was A Woman Award in 2007 and in 2010, she received a Guggenheim Museum Lifetime Achievement Award in 2010.


Oklahoma Baptist cross-country team hosted its lone home meet of the season, the OBU Invitational, this last Saturday at Gordon Cooper Technology Center.
Between the schools' competitors were Central Region No. 10 East Central, Midwestern State, Dallas Baptist University, Southwestern Oklahoma State, Rogers State, Central Oklahoma and Texas Wesleyan.
Southeastern Oklahoma, Southern Nazarene, St. Gregory's and USAO were also part of this tournament.
Abby Hoover, with an individual triumph, gave the Lady Bison a first place in the last OBU invitational during the 2015 campaign.
This season, women's cross country wanted to follow the successful tradition.
For this reason, sophomore Emily Sechrist, who had an outstanding performance, won the five-kilometer race with a time of 18:18.81.
"Emily's development has benefited from Abby's leadership—but it is deeper than that. She is also pushed daily by her teammates and [they] hold each other to high standards," Coach Matt Kennedy said.
Sechrist' first place is an outcome of an impeccable discipline.
"Emily's ability to win Saturday is a result of her winning daily at practice," Kennedy said.
"She works hard at training smart and doing all the little things right," he said.
Despite of Sechrist' individual victory, she prioritized the effort of her teammates to achieve the first place in contest.
"Our whole team has worked really hard to be prepared for this meet, so it was amazing to see our training paid off," Sechrist said.
Sophomore Sydney Lawrence came on a second place with a time of 18:21.15 for the Lady Bison and Kennedy attributed her with an enormous merit.
"Her [Sydney] work ethic is unparalleled. Sydney has been challenged early in this season but [she] has shown great resolve and I am impressed with her ability to overcome," Kennedy said.
The second place was a surprise for Lawrence who also recognized the Lady Bison strengths during the competition.
"I thought I could place in the top 10, but definitely was not expecting coming on second," Lawrence said.
The fourth and fifth spots are given to freshmen Kandance Standridge and Daisy VanMeter, who came in fifth and 13th place respectively.
"I have a job to do every race. Whatever the circumstance is, to choose team over pain and to leave it al on the course," Standridge said.
Although the Lady Bison claimed as champions in the OBU invitational, VanMeter said it was not an easy race and she also set some goals for the team in future events.
"It was a tough contest against top teams we have not competed with this season. As a team I think we all expect to put in our best effort and win NCCAA (National Christian College Athletic Association) nationals," VanMeter said.
The Lady Bison will participate in the Great American Conference Meet hosted by Southeastern Oklahoma State University in Durant, OK October 22th.


Autumn Sedum "Joy" covered in snow was the inspiration for my calling them snowflowers.
You don't know about snowflowers? That's okay because they only "grow" in my hillside garden when it becomes magical after a good snow fall.
If you've ever walked through a garden after a snow, you will see trees, shrubs and flower beds transformed by ice and snow hanging onto the remnants of blooming flowers and stems. I deliberately leave my flower stems uncut so birds can enjoy the seeds in winter. After seeing them covered in snow, I now say I leave them uncut so that I can also find more snowflowers.
A border of mums turns into a white snow-covered hedge of small snowflowers.
After a good snowfall, I like to walk through my garden and try to recall what plant is sitting under the blanket of snow. Sometimes it's easy to spot the original plant, like the Autumn Sedum "Joy" that transforms itself every season. In spring, it's low to the ground sprouting in the shape of rosettes. By summer, it's a 2-foot succulent plant with pink flowers. By fall, the pink flowers have dried and turned a burnt orange, providing the perfect landing spot for snow to stick and become white caps on the orange base.
These mint plants alter entirely once covered in a sprinkling of snow.
Sometimes I don't know what the original plant was, like these perennial mints that take on a whole new look once covered in snow. I know they are a mint because the stems are square and hollow but I haven't made much progress in terms of identifying what kind of mint.
I live in USDA's hardiness zone 5b, which is North America's gardening belt. We had a parched fall so the snowfall is a welcome sight to help replenish the water tables and hopefully end the fall drought.
One more snowflower, this one on still-green leaves of my white tree rose. Love the pop of green peeking out from under the white tops, the tree rose looks like it still has white flowers.

Snow changes my whole garden. I look forward the morning sunshine after a snowfall, the whole landscape changes.

Another advantage of having a snowy garden, with snowflowers there is no watering or weeding required.


Behr's hairstreak butterflies (Satyrium behrii) can be spotted in late June and early July along the shrub steppe east of the Cascade Mountains and up the Columbia River, wherever the bitterbrush grow.
These hairstreaks have orange wings but never show their colors much-- instead, they keep their wings vertical so only the underside shows. The ventral wing pattern blends well with woody vegetation, and perhaps regulates body temperature as the butterfly turns away from or broadside to the sun. Their upper wing surface is a rich orange with brown border.
Behr's hairstreak butterfly caterpillars have evolved to rely only on bitterbrush for their food supply, while adult butterflies live on nectar from various flowers such as yarrow, buckwheats, splendid fleabane or dustymaidens.

History/Period
When war breaks out in the lull of summer 1914, it surprises and pulls millions of men in its wake. Nikolaus Sprink, exceptional tenor at the Berlin Opera House, will have to give up his prestigious career and the one he loves: Anna Sorensen, soprano and singing partner Palmer, Anglican priest, has volunteered to follow Jonathan, his young church aide. They leave Scotland, one as a soldier, the other as a stretcher-bearer. Lieutenant Audebert has had to leave his wife, pregnant and bedridden, to fight the enemy. But the Germans now occupy the small town of Northern France where the young bride has probably given birth. Unless the worst has happened. Having no news is the suffering which haunts Lieutenant Audebert's every night. And Christmas arrives, with its snow and multitude of family and army presents. But the surprise won't come from inside the generous parcels which lie in the French, Scottish and German trenches. That night, a momentous event will turn the destinies of Nikolaus, Anna, Palmer and Audebert around. Because the unthinkable will happen: rifles will be left at the bottom of the trenches to go, candle in hand, to see those opposite, shake their hands, exchange a cigarette and a piece of chocolate, wish them ''Merry Christmas''.


Slovenia has approx. 2 million inhabitants. Its population is slowly declining as in most of other European countries. However, the infant mortality rate is among the lowest in the world (2.8 per 1,000liveborns). Life expectancy is 75 years for men and 82.3 for women. There is nearly 100% literacy in Slovenia (99.6%).
According to Eurostat's Population Projections for Slovenia (2008–2060), the scenario that takes into account changes in fertility, mortality and migration, the population of Slovenia will be increasing until 2019 but after that year it will start to decline. Thus from the present number of 2.02 million, by 2019 the population should increase to almost 2.06 million and then slowly but steadily decline to 1.76 million in 2060. Such development will be the result of constant increase in life expectancy at birth, modest increase in fertility and relatively modest net migration.
The Slovenian language has played a special role throughout Slovenia's history and is still considered as one of the foundations of national identity. It is a Southern Slavonic language spoken by only two million people. In spite of various influences, in particular Germanic, it has preserved its special features. The most notable of them is the dual form (next to singular and plural), nowadays very rare in other languages.


Allison is very neat, but her husband, Kevin, is not. That doesn't bode well for trying to share a cramped bathroom on a daily basis. Designer Krista Watterworth and carpenter Marc Bartolomeo sign on to save this bath by providing a better layout that gives each a separate area to really express their individual personalities.
This tiny his-and-hers bath gets an ultramodern yet shabby-chic makeover.

The inflatable dummy tanks of battlefields, 1918-1945
Inflatable dummy tanks and trucks set up near the Rhine River in Germany. Attention to detail was critical. Bulldozers were used to make tank tracks leading up to where the 93 lb (42 kg) inflatable dummies stood. Real artillery shells were tossed around fake guns.
What use is an inflatable dummy tank in a very real war? A lot, if the enemy believes that it's real. During World War I, Allied forces made use of dummy versions of the British heavy tanks. These were constructed from a wooden framework and covered with painted Hessian cloth.
The tracks were non-functional so some were fitted with concealed wheels underneath and were towed from place to place by a pair of horses. Dummy tanks, representing Allied models, were also found to have been constructed by the Germans, even though they deployed only a small number of real tanks. It is possible they were used in training, rather than for military deception.
Dummy tanks saw significantly more use during World War II. Military deception is as old as war itself, but the idea the Allied planners came up with represented something new: a mobile, self-contained deception unit capable of staging multimedia illusions on demand.
The 1,100 men in the unit were capable of simulating two full divisions—up to 30,000 men—with all the tanks and artillery that the real units might be expected to have.
The illusion might discourage the enemy from exploiting a weak spot by making the site seem as if it was heavily defended, or could draw enemy troops away from where real American units were planning an attack.
Formed in January of 1944, and sent into action after D-Day, the Ghost Army went to war armed with three types of deception to fool the enemy: visual, sonic, and radio. Visual deception was handled by the 603rd Camouflage Engineering Battalion.
Originally formed to carry out large-scale camouflage, it was loaded with young artists, architects, and designers who now turned their visual talents to a different kind of art.
A Ghost Army trooper paints an inflatable rubber tank modeled on an M-4 Sherman. The 23rd Headquarters Special Troops, an elite force whose specialty was tactical deception, was a matter of military secrecy until its declassification in 1996.
To this purpose, they were equipped with hundreds of inflatable tanks, cannons, trucks, and even airplanes that could be used to create dummy tank formations, motor pools, and artillery batteries that looked like the real thing from the air.
These decoys were not simply giant balloons but consisted of a skeleton of inflatable tubes covered with rubberized canvas, an ingenious design that ensured that a single piece of shrapnel could not instantly deflate the entire dummy.
Dummy tanks were used in Operation Fortitude prior to the landings at the Normandy Beaches. During this operation, they were used to confuse German intelligence in two ways: first, by making it seem that the Allies had more tanks than they did; and second, to hide and downplay the importance of the location of their real tanks in order to make it seem that the invasion would occur at the Pas-de-Calais rather than at Normandy.
However, dummy vehicles played only a small part in the overall deception plan as, at that stage of the war, the Germans were unable to fly reconnaissance planes over England and such effort would have been wasted.
During Operation Shingle at Anzio, Italy, inflatable Sherman tanks were deployed when the real tanks were elsewhere. In the Pacific Theater, the Japanese made use of dummy tanks, crafting them out of wood and available materials, even sculpting one out of Iwo Jima's volcanic sands.
To complete the experience, the Ghost Army also used sonic deception, helped by engineers from Bell Labs. The team recorded sounds of various units onto a series of sound-effects records, each up to 30 minutes long. The sounds were recorded on state-of-the-art equipment and then played back with powerful amplifiers and speakers that could be heard 15 miles (24 km) away.
The 1,100-strong Ghost Army would usually impersonate a specific, much larger division, such as the 6th Armored Division, which had 15,000–20,000 soldiers. This photo shows a mock-up of an artillery piece typically used to support large divisions.

A new college?! Say, whaaat?
I always want to be completely open and honest with you all here, but sometimes that gets challenging when I feel overwhelmed with my life and I don't exactly want all of the details of what's going on out on the internet. If you have been reading my blog for most of this year, you might know that I just finished up my first year at Lehigh University and I didn't exactly love it as much as I had hoped. That said, I have shared with my friends, family, and sorority sisters at Lehigh that I won't be returning in the fall. That's a whole other story to get into, but for now I do want to be very transparent and say that I just have absolutely no idea what my plan is for this fall semester. I am trying to keep all of my options open right now, and one of those options does include looking at other universities.
If you follow me on Instagram you might have seen my Insta Stories; I went to Purdue this past weekend with my mom to look around and see how I liked the campus of a bigger university. Purdue is my mom's alma mater, so it was fun to both scope it out for me, and get to see a little more of her college experience and be back on campus for her. Although Purdue was really cute and it is a great school, I don't necessarily think it was for me.
I will be sharing more details about this whole process with you all as I endure it, but for now please know that we are all pretty much on the same page; I have no clue what I am doing. I just wanted to share this news with all of you because I know I have been a little distant from blogging, and it truly is just a poor reflection of having my plate so full (you can even read more about what I've been up to in this post).
For now, this is what I wore to walk around Purdue on Saturday; it was 90 degrees and so beautiful. I love this new top I scored for a crazy good deal at J. Crew and these ruffle shorts that I purchased in Miami. I wore the shorts in this blog post that I shared from Wynwood Walls, and I added the fun puff on my pouch for extra fun. I love little accents like those in an outfit.
I love this this outfit. The pouch is amazing!
Good luck on your new college search Frannie! I know it is probably stressful and scary, but what a great chance to experience so many new amazing campuses! Best of luck!
Thank you for sharing your new college search with us Frannie! I'm sure this is stressful, but I'm sure you'll figure it all out soon! I love your top in this post!
Good luck on your college search! I may be a little biased, but you should definitely come to University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill!! Btdubs, love your outfit!
I wish you all the luck in choosing a new school or whatever else you decide to do in the Fall! It's so much better to transfer and adjust to new place than be unhappy for 4 years.
Come down south to Clemson! I love it here! Wishing you luck looking for your best fit!
Good luck with the transfer process, Frannie! Can't wait to see where you wind up going!


This is the 3rd year in a row that David pulled the Microsoft team together to run the Half Marathon and Marathon! We had over 20 people run this year (you do not see them all in the photo due to the fact that they did not arrive in time for pictures).
This year's run was the toughest as it was very cold, around 40 degrees. On top of that it rained (poured) the entire time from the time that we were dropped off by the shuttle bus to the time that we finished the race! The winds were also very strong which really made it hard to stay positive on this one!
David and I did not run this one together and I will have to say that the miserable weather made me run the entire way! Usually, I do a walk/run but there was no way that I was going to walk in this weather! I remember about a mile out from the finish line and the rain/wind picked up tremendously. I remember saying to myself "really?" and just shrugging it off and getting it done!
There were several folks already done with the race but they did not stick around and I cannot blame them! We grabbed a few bananas and some chocolate milk and headed back to the car and to the Flying Saucer!
I know that many of the folks that did this for the first time were very upset and have said that they would not do this again! I am hoping that they have a change of heart in the future as this is really a great fun race!
All the Microsoft folks getting together to work towards a common goal!
The cold,cold weather and my wet, wet shoes!
Trash bags over our bodies!
Running faster than I had ever run, just to get DONE!
Having a beer together at the flying saucer!

Т-14 (Індекс ГБТУ — Об'єкт 148) — дослідний російський основний бойовий танк на гусеничній платформі «Армата». Має ізольовану безекіпажну башту, а екіпаж знаходиться в броньованій капсулі в корпусі танка.

Прогнозовані дати взяття на озброєння багаторазово змінювалися. Перші заяви говорили про 2015 рік. Станом на 2023 рік танк не пройшов державні військові іспити та не прийнятий на озброєння. Відомо лише про надходження дослідної партії з близько 20 танків у 2021 році, точна кількість невідома.

Історія

Розробки безекіпажної башти у СРСР
1971 колектив харківського заводу ім. Малишева в ініціативному порядку запропонував проєкт машини, що згодом отримала позначення ГАБТУ «Об'єкт 450» і заводське позначення Т-74. Машина поділялася на п'ять окремих відсіків: моторно-трансмісійне відділення, відсік з боєкомплектом, відділення з членами екіпажу, відділення із гарматою і додатковим озброєнням, паливне відділення. Але радянське керівництво вважало концепцію танка занадто дорогою і складною у виробництві, приблизно через рік тема була закрита.

На початку 1980-х років завод ім. Малишева почав розробку перспективного танка «Об'єкт 477».

Створення Т-14
У вересні 2012 року командувач Сухопутними військами РФ генерал-полковник Володимир Чіркін заявляв, що перший дослідний екземпляр має бути випущений 2013 року, а на озброєння танк має бути прийнятий вже у 2015 році.

У січні 2015 року було оголошено, що постачання першої партії в російську армію — лютий 2015. Станом на 13 травня 2015 року танк не надійшов на озброєння, бо не пройшов державні випробування.

У березні 2018 року повідомлялося, що танк пройде попередні випробування до кінця 2018 року.

У лютому 2021 року міноборони РФ уклало контракт з «Уралвагонзаводом» на постачання 132 одиниць танків Т-14 «Армата» до кінця 2021 року. Але 21 листопаду 2021 року стало відомо що постачання перенесено на 2022 рік, наразі лише тривають заводські випробування перших серійних машин.

15 квітня 2022 року стало відомо, що випуск Т-14 зупинено через західні санкції.

Конструкція

Танк частково базується на експериментальних танках Т-95 і «Чорний орел», успадкувавши від них, зокрема, «лафетне компонування».

Озброєння
Танк оснащений 125-мм гладкоствольною гарматою 2А82-1М розробки Заводу № 9 з дистанційним (ненаселена башта), повністю цифровим керуванням. Керування гарматою буде вестися з ізольованої бронекапсули. Танк містить до 40 снарядів різного призначення в автоматі заряджання, може вести вогонь у русі. У танка новий автомат подачі боєприпасів, окремий від екіпажу, з «виносом боєприпасів», що дозволяє зберегти життя екіпажу навіть за умови детонації снарядів. Кулеметне озброєння становлять зенітна роботизована установка з кулеметом «Корд» і спарений ПКТМ.

Двигун і ходова
Колеса ходової частини запозичені від Т-80, через меншу масу, завдяки чому танк полегшав на тонну. 7-колісна активна підвіска на лопатевих амортизаторах з диференціальним механізмом повороту з гідрооб'ємною передачею.

Машина оснащена 12-циліндровим чотиритактним Х-подібним дизельним двигуном з турбонаддувом А-85-3А (12Н360) потужністю 1500 кінських сил. Двигун багатопаливний з безпосереднім упорскуванням. 12Н360 виготовляється Челябінським тракторним заводом. Двигун розроблений Челябінським конструкторським бюро «Трансдизель».

Захист
Передня проєкція має багатошарову комбіновану броню, дозволяючи танку витримати лобове влучення більшості сучасних і перспективних типів протитанкових снарядів і ракет. Екіпаж, з трьох осіб, що сидять у ряд, розташований в ізольованій бронекапсулі. V-подібне днище. Встановлено активний захист «Афганіт». Він здатний перехоплювати на підльоті до танка не тільки кумулятивні гранати і протитанкові керовані ракети, а й підкаліберні снаряди. «Афганіт» є вдосконаленим нащадком комплексу активного захисту «Штандарт» танка Т-95. Для комбінованої багатошарової броні фахівцями НДІ Сталі розроблені нова бронесталь марки 44с-СВ-Ш електрошлакового переплаву високої стійкості, а також нові матеріали і конструкції наповнювача. Це дозволило зменшити масу конструкції на 15 % при збереженні бронестійкості.

Зв'язок і спостереження
На танку встановлена новітня радіолокаційна станція, яка здатна одночасно вести до 40 динамічних і до 25 аеродинамічних цілей, контролювати територію в радіусі до 100 кілометрів і в автоматичному режимі знищувати всі, що летять в нього ракети і снаряди на швидкості до 3000 метрів в секунду. Відповідно до техзавдання Мінпромторгу, на танк встановлені радіолокатори Ка-діапазону (26,5-40 ГГц) на базі активної фазованої антенної решітки, зроблені за низькотемпературною керамічною технологією. Т-14 оснащується танковою інформаційно-керівною системою (ТІУС), яка контролює всі вузли та агрегати, керує бортовими системами, діагностує несправності й інтегрується з автоматизованою системою управління танкового підрозділу. Інформація з телевізійних, лазерних і тепловізійних датчиків про бойову обстановку виводиться на монітори танка. Панорамний огляд дозволяє командиру і навіднику бачити поле бою на 360 градусів; Т-14 здатний обмінюватися даними з іншими бронемашинами і командним пунктом.

Порівняння з іншими танками

Інциденти

Під час репетиції урочистого параду, присвяченому дню Перемоги у Німецько-радянській війні — 7 травня 2015 на Красній площі танк зупинився навпроти Мавзолею і заглух. Водій танка підняв червоний прапорець, що мало сигналізувати про виниклі проблеми. Танк простояв протягом усієї репетиції параду, його причепили тросом до тягача і намагалися відбуксирувати. За одними джерелами, — танк вдалося завести і рушити з місця лише після того, як на місце прибув співробітник (водій-випробувач) фірми-виробника — «Уралвагонзаводу».

За іншими джерелами (спостерігач на місці — кореспондент «Комсомольської правди» Дмитро Смирнов), — до танку підходив міністр оборони Сергій Шойгу; і танк таки врешті-решт відбуксирували з площі за допомогою тягача.

Російський диктор, який коментував репетицію параду, сказав, що глядачам була продемонстрована «евакуація підбитої техніки». Заступник гендиректора «Уралвагонзавода» Олексій Жаріч доповів російським ЗМІ, що танк «повністю справний». Причиною інциденту, на думку Жаріча, стало хвилювання водія, а також той фактор, що «техніка нова і складна». Він зазначив у «твіттері», що на репетиції параду танком керував водій-випробувач «Уралвагонзаводу». Також за його словами, танк «спокійно завівся і поїхав». «Ви тільки уявіть, яке хвилювання у хлопців, які вперше керують новою технікою…» — написав Жаріч у своєму «твіттері». Після цього цей запис Жаріча чомусь зник з його сторінки.

Танк «Армата» до цього раніше двічі зривав репетиції параду — на підмосковному полігоні в Алабіно. У звітах зазначалось: відмова органів керування агрегатами трансмісії. Доктор військових наук і президент Академії геополітичних проблем Костянтин Сівков вважає, що слова диктора на Красній площі про «заплановану зупинку» з метою «продемонструвати можливості щодо евакуації» є «не більше ніж спроба приховати інцидент». Раніше російські експерти відмітили, що машина Т-14, не пройшла етап державних випробувань, а лише заводські. Він до цього часу не вироблявся серійно і не був прийнятий на озброєння.

Реакції на Заході

 У 2022 році Бундесвер отримав роботизовані макети російських танків, в тому числі Т-14 та Т-90М, виробництва компанії GaardTech.

Застосування
В кінці грудня 2022 року російський пропагандист Володимир Соловйов заявив, що екіпажі танків Т-14 проходять бойове злагодження перед відрядженням на фронт.

Оператори
  — у вересні 2015 року оголошувалися плани виготовити 2300 одиниць танку до 2020—2025 року. У вересні 2016 було оголошено, що до 2019 року у війська буде поставлено 70 серійно виготовлених танків. На військовому форумі Армія-2017 вже було оголошено про постачання 100 танків до 2020 року. У 2018 році заступник міністра оборони Росії Олексій Криворучко повідомив про плани отримати 132 Т-14 та Т-15 до 2021 року. У 2021 році було заявлено про отримання дослідної партії з 20 машин.

Investigators still don't know the cause of a fire that caused heavy damage to a house on Dan's Highway Saturday afternoon.
Fire Marshal Fred Baker said Tuesday investigators still did not know what started the fire.
Fueled by gusty winds Saturday afternoon, flames could be seen above the roof of the three-story house.
"We saw heavy fire on our arrival," Fire Chief Jack Hennessey said late Saturday. "The house is located in a non-hydrant area which made it difficult to fight. We had to call for mutual aid."
Hennessey said fire crews from Norwalk, Wilton, Pound Ridge, N.Y. and South Salem, N.Y. were among the municipalities that sent help. The Vista, N.Y. department also responded as well as New Canaan Emergency Medical Services crews.
"We laid 4,700 feet of five-inch supply line into a pond on Dan's Highway to get the water we needed," he said. "We had at least seven tankers on the scene."
Hennessey said the second and third floors of the home were heavily damaged, making it uninhabitable.
"The family was able to get out safely," he said. "There were no injuries."
He said the family found a place to stay.
"It took us about an hour and a half to bring the fire under control," Hennessey said. "But we're keeping crews there all night."
At a late hour, firefighters were still extinguishing hot spots in the home.
The family called 911 shortly before 2:30 p.m. while the fire already had reached the roof.
Police Officer Owen Ochs was one of the first to arrive and placed a call for mutual help.
At one point, nearby neighbors at the intersection of Dan's Highway and Ponus Ridge left their home for safety reasons. They returned just before 5 p.m.
Hennessey said the New Canaan Fire Marshal's office along with the State Fire Marshal have begun an investigation into the cause of the fire.
On Sunday afternoon, a moving truck, and a repair van were seen in the driveway of the home. A man on a lawnmower, and another man with a leafblower were seen cleaning up debris on the property. Dry sand was also up, and down the sides of Dan's Highway and Ponus Ridge.
The man on the lawnmower was seen in front of the home, and on Dan's Highway while also going down the home's driveway, and throughout the whole property. The man with the leafblower was seen in the backyard, and neighboring yard where debris also blew to.
The roads, and sand were covered in water Monday after 7 a.m.
