The hallmark of a successful response to a nuclear detonation will be the resilience of the community, region, and nation. An incident of this magnitude will rapidly become a national incident; however, the initial critical steps to reduce lives lost, save the lives that can be saved with the resources available, and understand and apply resources available to a complex and dynamic situation will be the responsibility of the local and regional responders and planners. Expectations of the public health and health care systems will be met to the extent possible by coordination, cooperation, and an effort to produce as consistent a response as possible for the victims. Responders will face extraordinarily stressful situations, and their own physical and psychological health is of great importance to optimizing the response. This article illustrates through vignettes and supporting text how the incident may unfold for the various components of the health and medical systems and provides additional context for the discipline-related actions outlined in the state and local planners' playbook.

Name: Della Van Hise
Alias(es): Alexis Fegan Black, Della Hawks, Carlin Rae Thorne, Pagan Blue, and many more, see Pseuds
Type: fanwriter, zine publisher, concom member, writer of tie-in novels and profic novels

6.2 Meta by Van Hise
Della Van Hise was a prolific Kirk/Spock fanwriter who later published an official (and infamous) Star Trek tie-in novel, Killing Time.
As Alexis Fegan Black (and many, many other pseuds) [1], Della Van Hise wrote over fifteen novels, a multitude of novellas, poems, short stories, and vignettes. [2] [3] [4]
Van Hise's press for fanfiction is Pon Farr Press.
Some of her fiction was posted at AO3 starting in 2014. However, as of February 2017, the stories are no longer available apparently due to TOS violations.[5][6]
Van Hise passed away on March 3, 2021. [7]
Fan Reaction
A fan in 1989 wrote:
Alexis Fegan Black - No other author appears as often on my mental list of "most memorable and favorite K/S stories". She combines an excellent writing talent with the loving warmth that I admire most about K/S. I do get a little tired of all the metaphysical stories at times, and that makes me all the more appreciative when she strays to the more raw, erotic stories, such as "War Games" (OFF DUTY 1), and to a very fun read such as Things That Go Bump in the Night (NAKED TIMES 21). I believe my most favorite of hers are the DREAMS OF THE SLEEPERS series, Past, Present, and Always" (NT 7), and "A Time to be Born" (K/S COLLECTED). Where would K/S be without Alexis Fegan Black? [8]
From a fan in 1998:
Subtle? Della van Hise? In any other genre, the woman would have been called a pornographer (is that a word?).
This was from the days when XXX was a goal, for most of these women. Della never wrote a story that was suitable for my mother to read. (Of course, I didn't read much back then that *was.*) Everyone was punch-drunk back then, with the freedom to write whatever their little hearts desired. And, oh, Goddess, was there some bad stories back then.
At this point, I have to admit that I don't like bdsm, torture stories, S/M, or anything even faintly weird. H/C is as far as I'm willing to go. Della van Hise was into the mildly kinky stuff. Lots of h/c, graphic sex, bdsm, all that. But she was a fairly good writer.
There was a British zine, which name I can't recall at the moment, that printed stories with a harder X than Della did. Just one. She was the queen of the hard core K/S back then. IMHO, anyway.
As a guideline, most of Aunt Ruth's stories wouldn't have been publishable back then. They would have been too strong in tone. But for her day, Della was really rough. She could be considered the grandmother of the ASCEM. [9]
From pro writer and fan, A.C. Crispin:
Della van Hise once told a crowd at a Star Trek con that "The reason I and the other writers have to slash Kirk and Spock is that no woman is good enough for them."
She did not crack a smile.
I was sitting next to her, and did not smack her, which I felt was a sign of great restraint on my part. [10]
Some Troubles in the Early 1980s
There is a long, long letter in Datazine #29 (as well as in Universal Translator #22) in the personal statement section by Della in which she responds to multiple complaints in "Datazine" and numerous letterzines regarding to zines fans have paid for but have not received. She cites poor health, problems with the originals for at least one zine (Naked Times #4/5) being lost at the printer, and says she just plain "F----- Up. I can't make it any clearer than that... I hope this can be resolved as quickly and painlessly as possible for all involved. As I stated before, I DO intend to fulfill all commitments for back orders and current orders. We all make mistakes; unfortunately, mine have been more apparent than many... There really isn't much I can do other than apologize and reassure you that 'time will tell.' At this point, threatening letters aren't doing any of us any good. I honestly couldn't do anything more right now if I was under full-scale attack by Klingons, Romulans, Gorns, and Tholians. But as soon as the attack is over, I hope to prove to you that I'm not some dishonest evil alien."
In Datazine #32, Della had an update. She explained in detail which zines have been sent out, and which ones are still in the works. She mentioned she is having to re-do Naked Times #4/5 part two as her "born-again printer" had completely destroyed the original and the dummy copies after she had paid her bill in full. "It seems he overlooked that commandment about coveting and/or destroying his neighbor's property." She closed with a thank you to fans. "... thanks again to those who have written kind letters of support and encouragement over the last few troubled years. I look forward to being able to re-establish the trust and harmony we all shared in the past."
Many reviews of her zines in On the Double (~ 1987) go out of their way to praise how speedy the zines arrived.
Her Pseuds
[1987]:
One of the main reasons [I use several pseuds] is that I'm hopeful of publishing more professional books, and it seems that K/S is indeed frowned upon by some of the major publishing houses. Other reasons are that I enjoy reading honest letters of comment, and many letter-writers are more likely to give honest critique of a story if they don't know their letter is going straight into the hands of the editor/writer. I'd rather have honest negative criticism than insincere ego-boo so I'll occasionally toss in a story under a different pseudonym for that reason. [11]
Additionally, from my own personal experience, I have learned that it is seldom if ever wise to use one's true name on any material associated with K/S — particularly if one has any hopes of ever publish ing his/her work professionally. The wide-spread opinion is one of "Oh, nobody really cares that I write K/S", or "Paramount wouldn't hold it against me if I decided to do a professional STAR TREK book". Guess again. A lot of people are adamantly, rabidly opposed to K/S and to those who write, edit, publish, read or review it. And, as a personal note, Paramount sure as hell does care and can easily "hold it against" one. So while it's idealistically preferred to use one's "true" name or even one's most commonly used "fandom name", it isn't always practically sound for reasons which may never occur to the majority of people involved in K/S fandom. [12]
A couple of people have said to me over the years - "Gee, Della, do you think it's wise to publish your Quantum Shaman books and your erotica under your own name?" Who knows? In this new day and age of indy publishing, it seems that just about anything goes - and I can only say that anyone who is SERIOUS about their spiritual journey already knows that what we do isn't necessarily who we are. Then again, we are sensual and sexual beings because we are human beings, so I make no apologies for what I've written, nor for who and what I am.
I personally feel a writer should be able to do anything s/he wants, but because I also acknowledge that we live in a world of "shoulds" and "shouldn'ts" (two of the most dangerous words in the English language), I made the decision to publish Prince of Umberlight under my long-established pseudonym (which I've never kept secret), Alexis Fegan Black. Of course, now that I've told you, what's the point of a pseudonym? But I suppose some people worry more about the name on the cover than the content inside. *lol* It's a funny, funny world in which we live. [13]

Q: Variation on Vandermonde's identity How can you show that
$$ \binom{2n}{n}^2 = \sum_{m=0}^{n} \binom{2n}{2m} \binom{2m}m \binom{2n-2m}{n-m} $$?
I was fooling around with random walks, and apparently both expressions are supposed to be the number of unweighted random walks on a 2D square lattice of $2n$ steps that ends at the origin.
Whole thing reminds me of Vandermonde's identity but I can't it. Any hints?

A: $$\binom{2n}{n}^2 = \sum_{m=0}^{n} \binom{2n}{2m} \binom{2m}m \binom{2n-2m}{n-m}$$
Consider the right hand side terms.
$$
\binom{2n}{2m} \binom{2m}m \binom{2n-2m}{n-m} = \frac{(2n)!}{(2m)!(2n-2m)!}\frac{(2m)!}{m!m!} \frac{(2n-2m)!}{(n-m)!(n-m)!}  = \frac{(2n)!}{m!m!(n-m)!(n-m)!} = \frac{(2n)!}{n!n!}\frac{n!}{m!(n-m)!}\frac{n!}{m!(n-m)!}={2n\choose n}{n\choose m}{n \choose m}
$$
Then the summation becomes
$$
\sum_{m=0}^{n} \binom{2n}{2m} \binom{2m}m \binom{2n-2m}{n-m} = {2n\choose n}\sum_{m=0}^{n}{n\choose m}^2
$$
From here onwards, there is proof in the following page.
Combinatorial proof of summation of $\sum\limits_{k = 0}^n {n \choose k}^2= {2n \choose n}$

A: On the right-hand side, $2m$ of the $2n$ steps are horizontal, $m$ of the $2m$ horizontal steps go right, and $n-m$ of the $2n-2m$ vertical steps go up.
For the left-hand side, turn the lattice by $\pi/4$ and independently choose $n$ out of $2n$ steps that go right and and $n$ out of $2n$ steps that go up.

for thankfulness for each day that has passed and update every day or so til the end of the month. Please try to check back periodically for new updates. As I can become rather pessimistic at times, this will help me remember to not get so upset or think that nothing good is happening. So, here we go!
Thankful for a new month and chance to do new things. Thankful that I have a job that although incredibly frustrating and difficult, has given me the chance to pay more bills and help my family.
Today is my daughter's birthday, so I'm thankful I had the ability to have her and to give birth to her. She's been nothing but joy and happiness to my life!
I'm thankful for weekends and time to sleep a little. Thankful I can spend my weekends catching up with the kids and learning what they're doing in school.
Today I'm thankful I have one more day before everything starts back up to write this post and do some creative things before tomorrow's craziness.
Today I'm thankful I'm feeling happy and not upset or depressed. Life isn't the best but I woke up today and my kids are awesome!
Today I'm thankful for having a job, and also for being able to leave early when I have the chance. I am enjoying my night now and spending time playing an old favorite game!
Thankful for a husband who stays with my children while I work and who takes care of them and does fun things with them so they aren't bored or missing me too much. He's been fantastic to them and I'm so happy we're making it work with his broken hand.
So happy today's Thursday, we have one more day of work, and I had one of the best work days of the entire month or so I've been working.
Thankful for Fridays, and the ability to work where I fit best. Thankful that I have two days of rest and relaxation and a chance to catch up on everything during the weekend.
Thankful for the ability to sleep in a little, to get a chance to go to the grocery store while I'm NOT exhausted, and to spend wonderful quality time with my kiddos!
It's been a second since I updated, so I'm not really sure what the next few days I was thankful for, so I'll do my best to summarize. I'm thankful for the good days at work and the successes I'm reaching in my personal and professional life. These days tend to blend together, so it's hard to specifically remember exactly, except I just have an overwhelming gratitude for everything. Husband started back working, we're back to three paychecks, and life's really finally looking up! So happy and excited!
Thankful for an amazing number of pageviews today even after the day's views count closed at 6pm my time. I reached a staggering 349 views and counting, bringing up my total blog views up to 2008 for November, and it's just barely the middle of the month. Looks like I'll be updating my goals for the month as I've already reached it fifteen days into the month! Thank you to whomever read and enjoyed my writing this month! Ya'll are fantastic!
Thankful for the page views I got yesterday and for the ability to get some much needed dermatologist work done. Also thankful for an employment that allows me to switch my schedule around to still get the hours I need and make the appointment and have enough time to get everything I needed to get done.
Thankful for the ability to have weekends off and for time to sleep like I needed to to kill off this dreadful cough and sick feelings! I have felt nasty most of this week, so having a day to rest is huge for both my mental and physical health.
I'm totally happy about the fact that my husband and I will have two days off together to do family things and catch up with each other. It's also been another great day of relaxation and time with my kids.
Thankful for the joys of this month and the holiday season coming up! It's been a crazy week and I haven't been able to update much at all due to a crazy family situation involving a mad dash from family members to grab us to visit a family member dying. We didn't make it due to circumstances out of our control and she passed without seeing us. This was incredibly sad, but I'm still thankful that things didn't get much worse as it most likely could have been. I'm getting ready for the new week with work and everything accompanying that, so I'm slightly stressing out. It's okay though. Getting holiday decorations up and setting up for the holiday season. My porch has lights up and some of my indoor decorations are up. I'm caught up mostly on laundry and the kids will be bathing and I'll be setting up school clothes and such so that this week is as stress free as possible. I haven't done as well as I wanted with this post, but that's okay. I've done better than if I hadn't done it at all!
I'm also thankful that I've passed 3000 views for the first time ever!
I'm taking it a few days at a time because I have neither the time nor motivation nor the memory to remember everything that's happened that I'm thankful for. It's been a rough month for us, but I'm so thankful for the strength of the bond of family, for the ability to weather a crisis (or 10 at a time) without breaking and crumbling. Having had employment with low cost childcare has been a life saver, having dermatology appointments that were very overdue, and being able to take my kids into the doctor before their sickness got worse has been something I'm truly thankful for. My job has also been incredibly understanding when I had to leave early to cover the care for my kids while my husband worked is also a huge blessing too. Hoping for less crises this coming month to end out a very eventful year!
Well, this truly has been a fabulous exercise in remembering to look for the good no matter what. I will definitely continue to find good things to remember throughout the rest of this year, and plan to work really hard providing even better content. Lots of ideas are in the works for me, including throwing myself into my e-commerce business, getting my home really and truly organized, and making sure that I'm continuing my health and wellness through essential oils and the Thrive Experience. It's been too long since I've had the energy I need to get through the days and weeks, so I'm super excited to be able to eventually afford to resume my journey to a better health and state of mind. My mental health has been a huge priority and will continue to be worked on so that I don't regress back into that dark mental place I've lived in for too long. I love all my readers and am so thankful I get to experience life with you. Thank you for reading and may you be blessed in all your endeavours!


Brands don't live forever. Commercial death occurs when the last bottle comes off the production line, and psychosensory rigor mortis sets in with the last spray from the last bottle. An extinct fragrance can trigger no memories for anyone. To preserve memory we must preserve the juice itself. How will we know what we're missing when it's not there to smell?
This inspired me to discuss Andy Warhol's idea of a Perfume Museum, a concept with some merit but that poorly executed could prove to be a testosterone-draining experience for most men. To compensate I suggested the museum include a hormone-stabilizing Hall of Olfactory Technology, featuring the first atomizer—invented in 1859 for purposes other than perfume application—and how it inspired Wilhelm Maybach's design of the carburetor and led to Robert Millikan's Nobel Prize for Physics in 1923.
Now, thanks to Perfumaniac, the nom de web of a New Orleans-based blogger who writes at Yesterday's Perfume, I've got another potential exhibit for the Hall of O.T.
The Perfumatic was typically mounted on a restroom wall; it came in two- and four-column models. The company, based in Canada, had over four hundred units installed in the United States by 1952. The local distributor was Jo-Lo Perfumatic, based in Jersey City, New Jersey.
Further back we find the One Cent Bull Perfume Dispenser by the Continental Novelty Co. of Buffalo, New York. You insert your penny, pull down on the bull's horns, and get a squirt of scent from his mouth.
This device—"Whiffs of Fragrance"—allows you to "Perfume Your Handkerchief" after selecting one of the four bottles, inserting a coin, and pulling down on the lever.
The technology has come a long way in some respects (remember the Robo-Spritzer?) but the basic idea remains the same.
Dr G have you ever been to the Museum of Jurassic Technology, in Los Angeles? Very odd and worth a trip.
I remember seeing those perfume dispensers here and there.
Oh, Della! That would be . . . I can't even think of a word that conveys the bouncing up and down excitement I feel when thinking of a newly designed machine like one of the above.
Thanks for pointing me to the Museum of Jurassic Technology. Their web site is quite bizarre--next time in LA I'm so there.
P.S. My favorite $3 ticket in San Francisco is the Camera Obscura next to the Cliff House. Something hypnotically soothing about watching the entire outside world rotate slowly in a shallow bowl.
Perfumatics are retro classics of design--they're the Cadillac tailfins of perfume technology. Check out this photo.
I vote with Nathan Branch: you should definitely do something along these lines!

Think of it as a lightweight creme, with a stack of minerals punched into it. For those that are unfamiliar with the Balm, it is a smooth luxurious creme that is easy to apply, and swells in the hair to create a strong, matte texture that is weightless. You get what you expect. Use a small amount and you'll thicken the hair and have a natural hold that moves. Use a lot of Balm and you'll get a very strong hold that remains pliable and washes out easily.

Кирк Бро́дфут ( произносится ; ) — шотландский футболист. Игрок клуба «Килмарнок». В 2008—2010 годах защищал цвета национальной сборной Шотландии. Выступает на позиции защитника.

Помимо «Килмарнока» выступал за шотландские команды «Сент-Миррен», «Рейнджерс» и английские «Блэкпул», «Ротерем Юнайтед».

С 2008 по 2010 год защищал цвета сборной Шотландии, в составе которой провёл четыре матча, забил один гол.

Ранние годы
Кирк родился 8 августа 1984 года в шотландском городе Эрвин. Детство провёл в деревне Дронган в Эршире, расположенной в шести километрах от Эра.

В юношестве Бродфут выступал за такие команды, как «Койл Тисл», «Эйр Волспэр», «Окинлек Тэлбот» и «Куин оф зе Саут».

В 2000 году талантливый футболист был принят в Академию эдинбургского клуба «Хиберниан». Через два года обучение спортивному мастерству в «хибс» было закончено, но «бело-зелёные» приняли решение не предлагать Бродфуту профессионального контракта.

Клубная карьера

«Сент-Миррен»
1 июля 2002 года Кирк подписал соглашение с клубом «Сент-Миррен».

23 сентября того же года Бродфут дебютировал в составе «святых» — в тот день команда из Пейсли в рамках Кубка Лиги встречалась с «Инвернесс Каледониан Тисл». 1 января 2003 года, поразив ворота «Клайда», Кирк открыл счёт своим голам за «Сент-Миррен».

В ноябре 2005 года Бродфут со «святыми» стал обладателем Кубка вызова, победив в финальном матче этого турнира «Гамильтон Академикал» со счётом 2:1. В том же футбольном году «Сент-Миррен», заняв первое место в Первом шотландском дивизионе, получил право играть в Премьер-лиге.

«Рейнджерс»
В марте 2007 года Кирк подписал предварительный контракт с глазговским клубом «Рейнджерс», по которому он станет игроком «джерс» летом этого же года. 1 июля Бродфут официально был объявлен футболистом глазговцев.

31 июля состоялся дебют защитника в «Рейнджерс» в поединке второго квалификационного раунда Лиги чемпионов против черногорской «Зеты». 18 августа Бродфут забил свой первый гол за «джерс», поучаствовав в матче с «Фалкирком», который закончился с разгромным счётом 7:2 в пользу команды Кирка.

9 февраля 2008 года защитник по итогам поединка с тем же «Фалкирком» удостоился звания «Лучшего игрока» этой встречи. Матч против «детей» окончательно утвердил Бродфута в качестве игрока основного состава «Рейнджерс». В том же сезоне Кирк с «джерс» выиграл Кубок Шотландии и Кубок лиги. Глазговцы также дошли до финала Кубка УЕФА, где, однако, уступили российскому «Зениту».

Следующий футбольный год Бродфут также провёл в ранге одного из столпов обороны «Рейнджерс». В том же сезоне защитник дебютировал в национальной сборной Шотландии.

15 марта 2009 года в финальной встрече Кубка лиги против «Селтика» Кирк был удалён с поля за грубый фол на Эйдене Макгиди. Нарушение произошло в штрафной площади «Рейнджерс» — пострадавший ирландец сам реализовал назначенный пенальти, установив окончательный счёт в этом матче — 2:0 в пользу «бело-зелёных». Бродфут в ходе поединка с «кельтами» получил тяжёлую травму голеностопа, выбившую его из строя больше чем на восемь месяцев. Первый матч после выздоровления Кирк сыграл 12 декабря 2009 года, когда его команда встречалась с «Сент-Джонстоном». 21 июня 2010 года Бродфут ещё на три года пролонгировал с «Рейнджерс» соглашение о сотрудничестве.

14 сентября в поединке Лиги чемпионов, в котором «джерс» встречались с английским клубом «Манчестер Юнайтед» подкат в исполнении Кирка привёл к перелому лодыжки у эквадорского полузащитника «красных дьяволов» Антонио Валенсии. После матча Бродфут выразил своё сожаление по поводу случившегося.

29 августа 2012 года по взаимному соглашению с руководством «Рейнджерс» Кирк покинул клуб на правах свободного агента.

«Блэкпул»
Неделю спустя Бродфут заключил однолетний контракт с командой английского Чемпионшипа, «Блэкпулом». Кирк также сообщил, что он мог оказаться в рядах «приморских» ещё два сезона назад, далее он продолжил:

29 сентября Бродфут впервые вышел в оранжевой футболке «Блэкпула» в официальной встрече, коей был поединок против «Кардифф Сити». 15 декабря Кирк забил дебютный гол за «мандаринов», отличившись в матче с «Блэкберн Роверс».

Сборная Шотландии
В 2006 году Бродфут сыграл пять матчей за молодёжную сборную Шотландии.

В ноябре того же года Кирк был вызван во вторую национальную команду страны. 14 ноября дебютировал в ней в поединке со второй сборной Северной Ирландии. Всего за вторую национальную команду провёл три матча.

В сентябре 2008 года Бродфут впервые был призван под знамёна первой сборной, заменив получившего травму Дэвида Уэйра. 10 сентября Кирк дебютировал в матче отборочного турнира к чемпионату мира 2010 против Исландии. В том же поединке, поразив ворота соперника на 18-й минуте игры, Бродфут забил свой первый гол за «тартановую армию». До конца года защитник ещё дважды выходил на поле в футболке сборной — в матчах с Норвегией и Аргентиной.

Личная жизнь

Семья
Кирк вырос в большой семье — помимо него его родители, Джек и Мэрилин, вырастили трёх сестёр футболиста — Кирсти и близнецов, Ким и Карен.

Скандалы
В декабре 2004 года Бродфут был приговорён к 12 месяцам условного срока, 200 часам трудовой повинности и 750 фунтам в качестве штрафа за инцидент, произошедший в любительском матче, проходившем в родных местах Кирка. В том поединке, повздорив с соперником, защитник «Сент-Миррена» жестоко его избил. В мае 2009 года Кирк получил серьёзный ожог лица в результате разрыва яиц, которые он готовил в микроволновой печи у себя дома. В июне 2010 года Бродфут вновь оказался в полиции — на этот раз за инцидент в ночном клубе города Эр, где он напал на человека.

I love recording the little things of life! I had to dedicate a page to the Royal Wedding and the new TN Kit - gotta love making a TN page about TN supplies, ha! The insert included in the traveler's notebook has such fun paper that I felt like I only needed a few photos, some lettering, and a bit of embellishment. I know that when I look back through this notebook I will enjoy remembering these small moments.


A few times I have been presented with Green Tea flavoured foods and every time I turn my nose up at it - Until i taste it. Green tea never seems to let me down. I love the photos and your presentation is great.

Slimer Wants YOU… to Bring Ecto Cooler Back from the Dead!
John Squires | October 8th, 2014 · 6 min read · 🔦
This year marks the 30th anniversary of Ghostbusters, a classic film that has spawned all sorts of spin-offs and product tie-ins over the years. To list them all off would require more words than anyone in their right mind would care to read, so let's skip ahead to the one that matters most…
ECTO. FUCKING. COOLER.
Originally birthed into the world in 1987, as a tie-in with the animated series The Real Ghostbusters, Hi-C's Ecto Cooler was essentially liquid Slimer, a green-colored and yet orange/tangerine-flavored beverage that was housed inside of both juice boxes as well as larger-sized cans.
Described on the packaging as a 'citrus drink,' Ecto Cooler contained 10% fruit juice and each 8.45 fluid ounce juice box was packed with 100% of a child's daily Vitamin C needs. Water, various unhealthy sweeteners, concentrated juices and Malic as well as Ascorbic acids filled out the ingredients list, those elements coming together to form the most iconic beverage that pop culture has ever known.
It was the Coca-Cola Company's Minute Maid division that was responsible for both regular Hi-C and the flavor of Hi-C that is most fondly remembered by anyone and everyone with good taste, and I'm willing to bet there's not a single person on this planet who consumed Ecto Cooler in their youth that doesn't to this day vividly remember the taste and smell – and want to experience both of those things at least one more time, before they shuffle off this mortal coil.
Phew. That was a long sentence.
Though Ecto Cooler lasted much longer than the animated series that was responsible for spawning it, it's been off the shelves for well over a decade now, officially being discontinued in 2001. Legend suggests that Minute Maid continued producing the beverage under different names for the subsequent six years, though even those drinks have since been put back into the containment unit.
The death of Ecto Cooler hasn't stopped fans from trying to bring it back to life, and many have done so by attempting to MacGyver their own concoctions, with varying results. The website Ghostbusters: Chicago Division came up with perhaps the most noteworthy recipe, mixing together orange juice, lemonade, Kool-Aid, food dye and a whole lot of sugar in an attempt to remind themselves of that sweet taste Ecto Cooler brought to their lips, far too many years ago.
As for the real Ecto Cooler, many fans have held onto both empty and sealed boxes and cans all these years, including myself (thanks Matt!), and those relics from the past pop up from time to time over on eBay, where they of course sell for a whole lot more than they did when Minute Maid was still producing the beverage. Like, you'd have to sell your house to win one.
For the most part, however, all you'll find on eBay are things like magnets and vintage advertisements. A search for 'Ecto Cooler' has recently begun to yield a results list packed with E-Cigarette vapors, designed to taste like the Ghostbusters drink. Yes, people are now smoking Ecto Cooler. Just goes to show how hungry nostalgic fans are for one more taste of the beverage they so fondly remember.
And that about brings us up to speed to the present day, and Ghostbusters' 30th anniversary. With the film being re-released into theaters, new Blu-rays hitting store shelves and Ghostbusters mania once again sweeping the nation (donuts! LEGOs!), it seemed a no-brainer that Coca-Cola would bring Slimer back for one more dose of fun in the sun. But alas, as 2014 nears closer to its end, with no sign of Ecto Cooler in sight, our collective hope for a return is quickly dwindling.
It's quite surprising, actually, that Ecto Cooler hasn't already been brought back – either this year or in the recent past. Nostalgia is hotter than ever right now, and with Coca-Cola bringing Surge back just last month, it seems that they're pretty well aware of the fan interest in old products. There's no food or beverage product from the past that fans are craving more than Ecto Cooler, so you can't help but wonder if they're holding off, or their fingers just aren't on the pulse of this one.
Thankfully, enthusiastic fans have once again stepped in, in an attempt to bring Ecto Cooler out of containment. Hopeful that the voices of Ecto Cooler's rabid fanbase will ensure that Coca-Cola hears that pulse loud and clear and puts their finger directly on it, a New York-based fan by the name of Dan Milano recently started the 'Resurrect Ecto Cooler' campaign, using the website Change.org to start a petition to help accomplish just that.
"If childhood had a flavor, this would be it for millions of '80s babies," reads the headline on the campaign's Facebook page, hitting the nail on the head of why it is that so many of us want the drink back. Because it's not just a drink; it's goddamn childhood in a goddamn juice box.
Now I know what you're thinking. I know exactly what you're thinking. And what you're thinking, right this second, is that petitions don't accomplish anything. They're a waste of time, and even one million digital signatures won't mean that Ecto Cooler is coming back. And you're right. You're totally right.
But here's the thing. If enough fans rally behind the cause, and DEMAND that they want Ecto Cooler back on store shelves, it's inevitable that Coca-Cola will at least take note. And who knows. They just might listen. Big companies are of course driven by money, and if they realize how much money they can make off of our nostalgia, I can be pretty damn sure that they'll find it pretty damn irresistible to take advantage.
If Ecto Cooler comes back, it's as much a win for their wallets as it is for our nostalgia. So sign the petition, follow the campaign on Facebook and spread the word. Our support can only help the cause, and it only takes a few seconds to add your digital Hancock to the list.
With any luck, we'll someday soon be sticking that orange straw through that all-too-small, foil-covered hole, and sucking our childhoods straight back into our souls. I can already taste it. Can you?
I leave you with Ecto Cooler connoisseur Dinosaur Dracula's hilarious video from two years ago, wherein he consumes an actual Ecto Cooler juice box… from 1994. Enjoy.
Now… who wants to start a petition to bring Rick Moranis back?

Tony Cascio, picked by the Rapids with the No. 14 selection in the MLS SuperDraft, is congratulated by league commissioner Don Garber on Thursday in Kansas City, Mo.
With a renewed eye for offensive flair, the Rapids on Thursday grabbed playmaking midfielder Tony Cascio of Connecticut with the 14th pick in the MLS SuperDraft in Kansas City, Mo.
A first-team All-American at UConn in 2011, Cascio finished with five goals and eight assists for a Huskies team that qualified for the NCAA quarterfinals. As a junior in 2010, he led the team with 10 goals and six assists.
Cascio is known as a player not afraid to make the opposing goalkeeper work. His 70 shots as a senior trailed only Mamadou Diouf, the team's go-to striker.
The Rapids last week named Oscar Pareja its new coach, with the intent of becoming a more stylish, offensive-minded team. He replaced Gary Smith, who won an MLS Cup title in 2010 and qualified for the playoffs last season, but fell out of favor for a defensive style.
Cascio continues that trend. A forward-pressing midfielder, he joins a crowded Rapids roster at the position, with U.S. National team member Jeff Larentowicz, recently re-signed Brian Mullan, veteran defensive midfielder Pablo Mastroeni and Wells Thompson, among others.
The Rapids' interest in him surprised Cascio, he said.
"I had no clue. It hit me by surprise," he said.
Cascio said he expected to land with Real Salt Lake. A native of Gilbert, Ariz., Cascio trained with Salt Lake's youth academy team in Arizona and was on track to join the MLS club. But the Rapids took him before Real's pick at 17.
Montreal takes Blue Devil. The expansion Montreal Impact made Duke forward Andrew Wenger the first pick overall. He won the Hermann Trophy last season as college soccer's top player after scoring 17 goals and adding eight assists.


Yesterday there were traces of snow. Now, it's 60 degrees.
My dog is like a baby. He cries barks when he needs to eat or drink and maybe if he needs to go to the bathroom.
I'm absolutely loving that our local library joined an E-book consortium. I can now check out books from home and they're delivered directly to my kindle. Too cool and convenient. I can truly say that I read more since my family got me a Kindle last February.
I'm starting to adore that feeling. Of when your body is in complete relaxation and you have to remind yourself that you have feet.
Please tell me you've seen these.
I've really been noticing the stars lately. I refuse to remember Astronomy at UVA. We'd have to go to the Observatory and name all the constellations and that was a 100-level class. But, truly you've gotta admit it's cool they're out there.
The Bachelor-I hate this show, but I can't stop having it on. It's so not reality. But, what is reality? But, I'm pretty sure it's not creating a snow-slope in the middle of summer in San Francisco with 20-bikini clad girls.
Country music. Any song. It touches.
Prayers. I'm working on this spiritual discipline.
Discipline-what a 3-syllable words that has so many applications.
I also don't like the word companionship.
Supposedly, a million trees are planted a year by nuts that squirrels forget to dig up.
Moral of the Story: A friend at school just gave birth to a 12 pound baby. Whoa. What a big bundle of joy?


Within the last week, in two completely separate environments, I've had a first master go where the Directory Server won't stay running, and as a result, pki-tomcatd, and other services will never start. This has happened in two completely separate distinct environments. I've had to basically fix it by uninstalling the first master, and putting it back. Does anyone have any idea why? Is there a bug that started very recently? Both on CentOS 7, both slightly different releases of FreeIPA.
I'm not seeing anything obvious, but in both cases, slapd log files look very similar to this. Attached.

2020 BMW 1-Series official photos and details
BMW is making an important step in the compact segment with the introduction of the new 1 Series. The new generation, now in its third generation, features a dynamic design, roomier interior, a raft of technologies as well as BMW's trademark agility and performance.
It features a shorter bonnet and significantly more space within a footprint almost identical to that of its predecessor. At 4,319 millimetres, the new BMW 1 Series is five millimetres shorter, 34 millimetres wider and 13 millimetres higher. At 2,670 millimetres, the wheelbase is 20 millimetres shorter.
There have been a number of design changes including a new headlight arrangement, a more wedged shaped silhouette and a pronounced 'shark nose'. At the front, the BMW kidney grille is larger and, for the first time in this model range, the kidneys merge in the middle. The range-topping BMW M135i xDrive features a distinctive grille with a mesh design instead of the classical bars.
The BMW 1 Series features a distinctive window graphic enhanced by two character lines. One runs below the door handles from the front wheels to the rear wings, while the other starts in the lower part of the front door before lifting towards the rear quarter. In addition, the greenhouse is elongated with the traditional Hofmeister Kink incorporated into the C pillar.
The front-wheel-drive architecture with transverse engines and a lower centre tunnel offers the occupants more space than in the predecessor. This applies especially to those in the rear seats. Access is easier and there is an extra 33 millimetres of kneeroom available. Rear headroom is up by 19 millimetres when the outward opening panoramic sunroof is fitted. Rear passengers also enjoy 13 millimetres more elbowroom, while the driver and front passenger get extra 42 millimetres in this respect. Luggage compartment capacity rises by 20 litres to 380 litres (1,200 litres with the rear seat bench folded down).
The interior has more space and features high-quality materials throughout, driver-focused controls and innovative details, such as backlit trim strips. The BMW 1 Series with optional BMW Live Cockpit Professional features the new BMW Operating System 7.0 – with optional gesture control – which can be controlled via 10.25 inch screen.
The new BMW 1 Series is available with a wide range of new light-alloy wheels, including – for the first time – the option of wheels with a diameter of 19 inches. The SE model has 16-inch light-alloy wheels as standard. The Sport models feature 17-inch light-alloy wheels whilst the M Sport moves up to 18-inch light-alloy wheels as standard. The BMW M135i xDrive comes with bespoke polished 18-inch light-alloys, whilst newly designed 19-inch light-alloy wheels are optionally available for this and the M Sport model.
For the first time a panoramic roof is available as an option for the BMW 1 Series. With a 0.7m glass area, the roof features an electrically operated roller blind to provide shading along with a net wind deflector to reduce noise when open.
The new BMW 1 Series features the actuator contiguous wheel slip limitation (ARB) technology used in the BMW i3s. This is the first time it has been used in a combustion-engine car and it has the effect of significantly improving traction when pulling away, cornering or when driving in the wet. The system works in close tandem with the DSC system to significantly reduce power understeer.
ARB technology and BMW Performance Control also feature on the BMW 120d xDrive and the BMW M135i xDrive, which are both equipped with BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive as standard. This can split drive power 50:50 if necessary and is designed to ensure predictable handling in all driving situations. This applies even if the Driving Experience Control switch is set to Sport mode, DTC is selected or DSC is deactivated.
In Comfort or Eco Pro mode, drive is split as required, while keeping fuel consumption as low as possible. Fuel economy is therefore improved without any discernible impact on driving dynamics or traction. As well as the all-wheel-drive system, standard specification for the BMW M135i xDrive includes a newly developed mechanical Torsen limited-slip differential, which gives the car an even sportier edge.
The differential is integrated into the standard eight-speed Steptronic Sport transmission on the BMW M135i xDrive and also features a Launch Control mode that puts the full peak torque of 450Nm on tap in first and second gear.
In the 1.5-litre three-cylinder engine powering the entry level BMW 118i, modifications have cut CO2 emissions by 29g/km at the same time as boosting maximum power output by 4hp to 140hp. The power unit, which is five kilograms lighter than the one it replaces, generates peak torque of 220Nm. The BMW 118i accelerates from zero to 62mph in 8.5 seconds and goes on to a top speed of 132mph. It posts combined fuel consumption of 47.1-40.4mpg with CO2 emissions of 123-114g/kg.
The newly developed 2.0-litre unit under the bonnet of the M135i xDrive model is BMW Group's most powerful four-cylinder petrol engine. It delivers 306hp with the help of BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and peak torque is 450Nm. It accelerates from zero to 62mph in 4.8 seconds, while top speed is limited to 155mph. The M135i xDrive returns 35.3-34.4mpg and emits 157-155g/km of CO2.
The BMW 116d is powered by a 1.5-litre 116hp three-cylinder engine with a maximum torque of 270Nm, while returning 61.4-54.3mpg and emitting CO2 of 103-100g/km. This is sufficient for a top speed of 124mph and a zero to 62mph benchmark time of 10.3 seconds (10.1 seconds with the seven-speed Steptronic dual-clutch transmission).
The BMW 118d and 120d xDrive, which feature two-stage turbocharging, are powered by 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engines. The 118d returns 60.1-51.4mpg with CO2 emissions of 111-108 g/km. The output of the BMW 118d peaks at 150hp while maximum torque is 350Nm. The zero to 62mph sprint takes 8.5 seconds (8.4 seconds with eight-speed Steptronic transmission) and top speed is 135mph (134mph with Steptronic).
The BMW 120d xDrive features BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive and the eight-speed Steptronic automatic transmission as standard. Its four-cylinder power unit produces 190hp and a peak torque of 400Nm. The 120d xDrive accelerates from zero to 62mph in 7.0 seconds reaching a top speed of 143mph. Combined fuel consumption is at 51.4-48.7mpg while emitting 119-117g/km CO2.

The white wine La Fuga produced with the Chardonnay grapes by the Donnafugata cellar has a great character that releases in its essences all the cellar history. Donnafugata (women on the run) it's a name which reminds the XIX century history when Maria Carlina the queen, wife of Ferdinand IV of the Bourbons escaped from Naples to these lands, after the Napoleon conquest. Later, the writer Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa in his Gattopardo masterpiece, indicated with the name of Donnafugata those countryside lands of the Salina Prince which received the escaping queen and that today are the location of the vines of the cellar.
The Donnafugata white wine La Fuga is a balanced wine with strong fragrances both in the scent than in the taste and it expresses some exotic fruit aromas such as pineapple, apple and banana, with also a rich mineral and sapid flavor. The grapes used for the production of the prestigious La Fuga wine are the Sicilia Contessa Entellina DOC Chardonnay used as single variety 100%. For the Chardonnay grapes is used the counter cultivation method and the cordon spur pruning. The whole cultivation density is 5000 vine stocks per hectare and the production is about 60 q. per hectare.
The grapes are picked during the night in the first decade of August and it follows a soft pressing process. The alcoholic fermentation takes place naturally under temperature control. It follows a tank refinement for some months and finally three months of bottle refinement before being commercialized.
There are several perfect matches with this wine because is very adaptable. You can join it with crustaceous, elaborated main courses and tuna in all its versions. The pasta with sardines and broccoli which is a typical Sicilian main course with the addition of little tomatoes, raisin and pine nuts. There is another perfect match with a local course such as the bass aromatized with onion and garlic.
It has to be served in extended but wide wine glasses and it doesn't need any settling time. It has to be served between the 10° and the 12°C.

SECOND SKIN HARNESS by Sara Manente, Inju Kaboom and Günbike Erdemir
Their Trans Tube
Grace Dunham, New York
YouTube is not just a repository for animal videos (although, in all honesty, I find those emotionally uplifting and worthwhile). It's also one of the primary, already existing visual archives of queer and trans culture. Because of violence and marginalization, so many of our ancestors didn't have access to the institutions that make creative work permanent or longstanding, be that publication or preservation. But, throughout the last half-century, people have documented their friends, lovers and communities performing, talking, simply existing.
Her Civilized Woman
Lucy McKenzie, Brussels
In Brno, Czechoslovakia, in 1929, an ambitious project tried to articulate some answers to the 'woman question' that modernism could not resolve. Civilized Woman was both an exhibition and a book, in which a group of avant-garde designers proposed a radical new wardrobe based on functionalist trouser suits and short hair. Civilized Woman compiled practical outfits for work, leisure and pregnancy, and placed women in rationalized domestic environments like the 'Frankfurt Kitchen' designed by Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky. But other than chopping off long hair and keeping house more efficiently, Civilized Woman had little to offer in the way of emancipation.
Her Sturm Und Drang
Amy Sillman, New York
Sturm-Frauen, an exhibition at the Schirn Kunsthalle in Frankfurt this winter, was a mind-blowing show of female artists working in Berlin between 1910 and 1932. I frantically snapped pix on my phone the whole way through the show. The must-have catalogue was sold out at the museum, but may still be available from the publisher. Above all, I was stunned by the work of artist Lavinia Schulz. Schulz was a wildly talented performance artist, the Mike Kelley of her time. She was so far ahead of the curve that she could barely live in her time, plagued perpetually by poverty and misunderstanding, but an artist of total brilliance and scope.
Her Phallus Her Failure
Aline Bouvy, Brussels
I had been fantasizing about Delos ever since the day I bought a secondhand copy of the book Eros in Greece and came across the stone phalluses of ancient Greece's party island. Delos, the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, a sanctuary where none was allowed to die nor give birth, the place of the greatest pan-Hellenic celebrations, intrigued me even more because of its sudden decline.
Her Concrete
Nabihah Iqbal aka Throwing Shade, London
The Barbican looms over that quiet part of London which lies between the centre of the city and the East End. It exists in
a kind of no man's land, rising up and puncturing the grey London skyline with its three even greyer concrete towers. This triptych of edifices, with its severe angles and mysterious presence, provides a stark juxtaposition to the softly familiar dome of St. Paul's Cathedral nearby.
Jessie McLaughlin, London
It was the end of 2010, I'd just graduated with a BA in literature and I was feeling stuck. I didn't read anymore; instead I trawled job sites, fudging CVs and covering letters together with experience only of working in a family bakery and a pub. I was depressed, I was lonely, I had no money and no confidence. So I dreamt up a reading group. I wrote down a vague premise, made up a name and emailed around a few bookshops and project spaces. Eleanor, of X Marks the Bökship, replied. And so we started 'I've Never Read Her', a literature project reading short fiction and essays by women, open to all. Here is the list of all the writings we have read to date:
Their Hair
Greygory Vass, London
"But these used to be women's feet," we thought to ourselves. We both wished we'd had the courage to say it. Wait, is it courage? Or is it readiness to respond spontaneously, head space to think beyond the task in hand of trying to buy shoes, or willingness to out ourselves as transgender?
Her walk
Alice Carey, New York
On a lovely spring evening in Ireland, as I gaze over the fields westward, my thoughts fly to Kerry to the wondrous island of Skellig Michael a 'never never land' you may not get to unless the Atlantic says you can. Driving round Kerry's south-west coast, there it suddenly rises, way out in the ocean, this 600 foot uninhabited rock mountain; once a 6th century Christian place of pilgrimage.
Her garden
Sara van der Heide, Amsterdam
300 square meters of Mother Earth near Amsterdam; doing nothing; watching time go by; watching the seasons change; watching the vegetables grow and be eaten by the birds; watching the night fall, watching the sun rise; watching the insects chasing each other; watching some undefined green-grey-yellowish spots floating by in the ditch; hearing the neighbour yell; watching the leaves change from green to yellow;
Her Heresy
A.K. Burns, Brooklyn
Speaking of heresies, this reminds me of the publication and precursor that paved the way to open space for projects like Girls Like Us. Heresies: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics was exactly that. It was published 1977–1992 by the New York-based Heresies Collective, which included the still active feminists, queer woman, artists and writers Joan Braderman, Mary Beth Edelson, Harmony Hammond, Lucy R. Lippard and Miriam Schapiro among many others. This collective and publication was fundamental in establishing the emerging genre of feminist art and theory.
Her co-op
Marnie Slater, Brussels
I am part of a group of people working in the arts in Brussels who are in the process of trying to maybe hopefully fingers crossed buy and renovate two floors of a building in one of the suburbs in the south of the city. Motivated, in part, by wanting to figure out a way to continue to be in a growing and changing city in a sustainable way, we will build spaces for nine individuals, couples and collaborations to live and work, with common spaces for presentations, meetings, working, and hosting guests.
His Oxymoron
Bart de Baets, Amsterdam
Our car broke down on a trip driving south. Once B. called for assistance the three of us summed up all that could have gone wrong, and how lucky we were to have pulled over in time. To kill the time I sat down against a tree and read the paper, while L. went running up and down a road next to the highway trying to get rid of her energy.
Her white trainers
Elisabeth Klement, Amsterdam
For as long as I can remember I have had a thing for white shoes. Maybe it's my tennis background that lays the groundwork for this fetish, but I have always owned at least two pairs of white sneakers. There's something peculiar and exotic about wearing shoes in a colour that just asks to be messed with.
Her hole
Mel Shimkovitz & Eden Batki, Los Angeles
A bagel is a Jewish baked good. It's like a mature doughnut. It's like a doughnut with war stories. It's like a doughnut with a salty sense of humour. It's like a doughnut, but Jewish. It's a long, thick roll with a hole. Making bagels is our Sunday morning ritual. You need to allow an hour for rising time. We have another ritual we fill that hour with. A very abbreviated recipe:
Her anime
Tania Theodorou, Amsterdam
From a very young age, I remember the exciting and unfamiliar tug I experienced, along with an overwhelming sense of longing, when I saw for the first time the long, flowing blue hair and the stern, determined, yet sensual expressions of the androgynous animated characters on the screen...I think that is where it began.
Her bath
Liv Bugge, Oslo
As much as I like to get dirty, I like to take baths. After a long day walking the forest, skiing, chopping wood, reading or working at my little brokebackmountain cabin in the Oslo woods, I have an outdoor bathtub that I heat from underneath with fire. This is just a normal bathtub that I placed above a natural hole in the forest floor by the creek. It is highly recommended.
Her Circle
Sanna Samuelsson, Stockholm
"You are not alone". The title of a Michael Jackson song. The main reason for clubbing. And why party organizing can be a field for political progress and activism. Every new party is a new possibility. And feeling is the foundation of the party. Of the body. Of moving hips, and soft lips. I believe that when bodies move, minds do too.
Her broadcast
Anika Henderson, Berlin
Wherever I am in the world, I will try to tap into a broadcast of 'From Our Own Correspondent', presented by one of the BBC's most respected and long-running female documentary journalists. Kate Adie continues to tease out some of the most informative, insightful and often abstract reports for public consumption.
As a member of the female trans separatist collective Grupp 13, I am part of a wave of feminist and separatist party organizing in Sweden. Grupp 13 is based in Stockholm and consists of around 20 people. We are separatist in the sense that we only allow girls and trans people in the collective, and we hire women and trans people to DJj, perform, and work as sound engineers and guards.
We form a circle. While one of us is playing the rest of us are hanging out around the DJ booth, dancing, talking, drinking. Assuring each other: "Girl, you are not alone." Not on the dance floor, not in the DJ booth, not in the world. It's the dance of the circle.
Separatism is about mutual goals, and how to get there. Through exclusion of cis-gendered men we can focus on what we want to do, instead of fighting invisible power structures. Instead of being the troublemakers, we can create spaces where their behaviour is deviant.
In using the term separatism I adhere to the idea of strategic separatism, where you temporarily organize yourselves based on specific categories, like gender, race or sexuality. It's not about reinforcing or creating a collective identity of the group, but rather about working out methods for acting together against power hierarchies in the scene.
Separatist organizing takes a lot of time and energy, we organize the group in new ways, question our own norms and behavioural patterns. But organizing parties in the most efficient way isn't our primary focus. We want to learn together, to share knowledge and empower ourselves and others, bigger dreams, wilder parties.
Clubs are not safe. They're not supposed to be. They should be exciting, chaotic, wild. But there's a difference between chaos and violence. And violence, as well as fear of violence, prevents all sorts of wild things from happening.
– Writer and DJ Sanna Samuelsson reflecting on the political potential of dancing
