"Squirt" is a single by the English electronic music band Fluke.
Amongst the Squirt versions there are two known releases which have mislabeled tracks. The version YRCDX127 has a mislabeled track where Squirt (Pdfmone) is actually Slid (Pdfmone) and YRT127 is labeled by some discographies as a mis-press: "On the cover (picture sleeve) the tracks are written as above, but on the innerlabel it's written: A SIDE: A01 Squirt (full vox) A02 Squirt (the europicolamix) B SIDE: B01 Slid (modwheel mix) B02 Squirt (remixed by dub)"
Squirt is a caffeine-free, citrus-flavored, carbonated soft drink, created in 1938 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Squirt was created by Herb Bishop in 1938, after experimenting in college, Citrus Club. The result required less fruit juice and less sugar, which Bishop declared had the "freshest, most exciting taste in the marketplace".
In 1941, a mascot named "Lil' Squirt" was created in an effort to broaden public awareness. Squirt became a popular soft drink in many parts of the country, especially the West and Southwest. In the 1950s, it became accepted as a mixer used in cocktails.
The Squirt brand has changed ownership several times and is currently the property of Dr Pepper Snapple Group.
Squirt is naturally flavored but contains less than 1% grapefruit juice. Like many other soft drinks, the packaging of Squirt has varied over the years.
In 1983, Diet Squirt, the first soft drink in the United States to be sweetened with aspartame, was introduced.
In the mid 1980s, a vitamin-C-enriched Diet Squirt Plus was briefly marketed.
Pascal or PASCAL may refer to:
Pascal is a French and an Italian surname.
Pascal is a patronymic surname that derives from the personal given name Pascal, from Latin Paschalis. In France Pascal is especially found in the Southern-Eastern area, in Rhône-Alpes and Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, while in Italy Pascal is found in Northern-Western area, in Piedmont, Aosta Valley and the variant De Pascal in Friuli-Venezia Giulia.
Pascal is a common masculine Francophone given name, cognate of Italian name Pasquale, Spanish name Pascual, Catalan name Pasqual.
Pascal is common in French-speaking countries, Germany and the Netherlands. Derived feminine forms include Pascale, Pascalle or Pascalina. Pascal is also common as a surname in France, and in Italy (in Piedmont, Aosta Valley and, as De Pascal, in Friuli-Venezia Giulia).
Pascal derives from the Latin paschalis or pashalis, which means "relating to Easter", from the Latin term for "Easter", pascha, Greek Πάσχα, from the Aramaic pasḥā (Hebrew pesach) "Passover" (since the Hebrew holiday Passover coincides closely with the later Christian holiday of Easter, the Latin word came to be used for both occasions). The Christian given name is in origin from the meaning "one born on Easter day", or "born on Pentecost" (see below).
Variations of the given name include: Paschal, Pasqual, Pasquale, Paskal, Pascoal, Pascale, Pascha, Paschalis, Pascual, Pascoe and Pasco.
