Sodium thiopental: is an ultra-short acting barbiturate, often used for anesthesia induction and for medically induced coma. The typical anesthesia induction dose is 3–5 mg/kg. Loss of consciousness is induced within 30–45 seconds at the typical dose, while a 5 gram dose 14 times the normal dose is likely to induce unconsciousness in 10 seconds.

Pancuronium bromide (Trade name: Pavulon): This is a non-depolarizing muscle relaxant (a paralytic agent) that blocks the action of acetylcholine at the motor end-plate of the neuromuscular junction. Binding of acetylcholine to receptors on the end-plate causes depolarization and contraction of the muscle fiber; non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents like pancuronium stop this binding from taking place.

Potassium Chloride: The usual intravenous dose is 10-20 mEq per hour and it is given slowly since it takes time for the electrolyte to equilibrate into the cells. When used in state-sanctioned lethal injection, bolus potassium injection affects the electrical conduction of heart muscle. Elevated potassium, or hyperkalemia, causes the resting electrical potential of the heart muscle cells to be lower than normal (more positive). Without a negative resting potential, cardiac cells cannot generate impulses that lead to contraction.

'X's locale originally New York City was changed to a fictional city which was originally going to be called 'Civic City'. The name was then changed to 'Capital City', and then 'Coast City'. When 'Y' flipped through the New York City phone book and spotted the name ''Z' Jewelers' he decided to call it 'Z' city. 'Z' had long been a well-known nickname for New York City even prior to 'X's introduction, which explains why "'Z' Jewelers" and many other businesses in New York City have the word 'Z' in them. The nickname was popularized in the nineteenth century, having been first attached to New York by Washington Irving in the November 11, 1807 edition of his Salmagundi, a periodical which lampooned New York culture and politics. Irving took the name from the village of 'Z', Nottinghamshire, England, a place that, according to folklore, was inhabited by fools. The village's name derives from Old English and it literally means "haven for goats".

The non-toxic, non-staining, reusable modeling compound that came to be known as 'X' was originally a pliable, putty-like wallpaper cleaner concocted by Noah McVicker for Kutol Products, a family-owned Cincinnati-based soap company. It was originally composed of flour, water, salt, boric acid, and mineral oil. Following World War II, McVicker's nephew, Joseph McVicker, joined Kutol and discovered the wallpaper cleaner was being used by nursery school children to make Christmas ornaments. The product was then reworked and marketed to Cincinnati schools in the mid-1950s and it was named 'X'. 'X's 2004 United States patent indicates it is composed of water, a starch-based binder, a retrogradation inhibitor, salt, lubricant, surfactant, preservative, hardener, humectant, fragrance, and color. A petroleum additive gives the compound a smooth feel, and borax prevents mold from developing. 'X's current manufacturer is Hasbro and it is widely used by children today in arts and craft.

'Y' is a name given to fans of the American jam band, the 'X'. In the 1970s, a number of fans began travelling to see the band in as many shows or festival venues as they could. With large numbers of people thus attending strings of shows, a community developed.T he term first appeared in print at the suggestion of "Hank Harrison" on the sleeve of 'X's second live album, released in 1971. It read:

“ ____ FREAKS UNITE: Who are you? Where are you? How are you?

‘X’s marketing style is irreverent and often acknowledges its community of customers. Product descriptions commonly mock the product, the customer, or ‘X’ itself. In lieu of typical product sales, ‘X’ occasionally offers a blind grab bag officially called "Random Crap." While today its accompanying picture of a paper lunch bag with a question mark has kept its unofficial name "Bag of Crap," (BOC) it was originally dubbed "Bag of Crap" during the early years of the site when a physical bag of some kind (notebook, iomega zipper bags, etc.) was sold with the 1-3 "craps" and was part of what you were buying. Today, the BOC contains at least three "crappy" items and one bag whose value and quality are not guaranteed, but sometimes expensive items are included. The BOC typically triggers millions of order requests and sells out within seconds, causing server lag and usually a crash. During the January 25, 2011 selling, the website received a record 3.1 million requests, and the product was sold out within eight seconds.

In 1987, after turning 16, ‘X’ began hacking under the name "Mendax" . He and two other hackers joined to form a group they named the International Subversives. ‘X’ wrote down the early rules of the subculture: "Don't damage computer systems you break into (including crashing them); don't change the information in those systems (except for altering logs to cover your tracks); and share information". The Personal Democracy Forum said he was "Australia's most famous ethical computer hacker." The Australian Federal Police became aware of this group and set up "Operation Weather" to investigate their hacking. In September 1991 Mendax was discovered in the act of hacking into the Melbourne master terminal of Nortel, the Canadian telecommunications company. In response the Australian Federal Police tapped ‘X's phone lines and subsequently raided his Melbourne home in 1991. He was also reported to have accessed computers belonging to an Australian university, the USAF 7th Command Group in the Pentagon and other organisations, via modem. It took three years to bring the case to court, where he was charged with 31 counts of hacking and related crimes.

"X" describes the situation, idea, or societal condition that ‘Y’ identified as being destructive to the welfare of a free society. It connotes an attitude and a policy of control by propaganda, surveillance, misinformation, denial of truth, and manipulation of the past, including the "unperson" — a person whose past existence is expunged from the public record and memory, practiced by modern repressive governments. Often, this includes the circumstances depicted in his novels, particularly ‘Z’. ‘Y's ideas about personal freedom and state authority developed when he was a British colonial administrator in Burma. He was fascinated by the effect of colonialism on the individual, requiring acceptance of the idea that the colonialist oppressor exists only for the good of the oppressed person and people.

'X’ is an optical illusion first published as a rhomboid in 1832 by Swiss crystallographer ‘Y’. ‘X’ is an ambiguous line drawing. The effect is interesting because each part of the picture is ambiguous by itself, yet the human visual system picks an interpretation of each part that makes the whole consistent. ‘X’ is sometimes used to test computer models of the human visual system to see whether they can arrive at consistent interpretations of the image the same way humans do. Humans do not usually see an inconsistent interpretation of ‘X’. ‘X’ whose edges cross in an inconsistent way is an example of an impossible object. ‘X’ is used in epistemology (the study of knowledge) and provides a counter-attack against naïve realism. Naïve realism (also known as direct or common-sense realism) states that the way we perceive the world is the way the world actually is. ‘X’ seems to disprove this claim because we see one or the other form of a cube, but really, there is no cube there at all: only a two-dimensional drawing of twelve lines. We see something which is not really there, thus (allegedly) disproving naïve realism.

The word ‘X’, Latin for "I will please", dates back to a Latin translation of the Bible by Jerome. It was first used in a medicinal context in the 18th century. In 1785 it was defined as a "commonplace method or medicine" and in 1811 it was defined as "any medicine adapted more to please than to benefit the patient", sometimes with a derogatory implication but not with the implication of no effect. ‘X’ were widespread in medicine until the 20th century, and they were sometimes endorsed as necessary deceptions. In 1903 Richard Cabot said that he was brought up to use ‘X’, but he ultimately concluded by saying that "I have not yet found any case in which a lie does not do more harm than good". Beginning in the 1960s, ‘X’ became widely recognized and ‘X’ controlled trials became the norm in the approval of new medications. Later, researchers became interested in understanding ‘X’, rather than just controlling for its effects, and in 2011, a Program in ‘X’ studies was established at the Harvard Medical School.

The oil has a protective function. ‘Y’ is used as it is very tough and shock-resistant, not being significantly dented nor splintering on impact at high speed, while also being light in weight. It incorporates a wooden spring design where the handle meets the blade. The current design ‘X’ was the invention in the 1880s of Charles Richardson, a pupil of Brunel and the chief engineer of the Severn railway tunnel.

The song 'X' was first performed by the Michalis Patrinos rebetiko band in Athens, Greece in 1927. As with almost all early rebetika songs (a style that originated with the Greek refugees from Asia Minor in Turkey), the song's actual composer has never been identified, and its ownership rested with the band leader. 'X' in greek means an Egyptian girl. In 1941, Nick Roubanis, a Greek-American music instructor, released a jazz instrumental arrangement of the song, crediting himself as the composer. Since his claim was never legally challenged, he is still officially credited as the composer today worldwide, except in Greece where credit is variably given to either Roubanis or Patrinos. The song was rearranged as a solo instrumental guitar piece by surf rock guitarist Dick Dale in 1962. During a performance, Dale was bet by a young fan that he could not play a song on only one string of his guitar. Dale's father and uncles were Lebanese-American musicians, and Dale remembered seeing his uncle play 'X' on one string of the oud. He vastly increased the song's tempo to make it into rock'n'roll. It was Dale's version that introduced 'X' to a wider audience in the United States. 'X' got very popular when it was used as a soundtrack in the academy award nominated 1994 film 'Y'.

The earliest recorded use of the term 'X' is 1362 in The vision of William concerning Piers Plowman by William Langland and it is used to mean a small misshapen egg. It also appears in the Reeve's Tale by Geoffrey Chaucer and the meaning is "a child tenderly brought up, an effeminate fellow, a milksop". By 1521 it was in use by country people as a derogatory reference for the effeminate town-dwellers. 'X' was used to describe those born within earshot of the Bow Bells in 1600, when Samuel Rowlands, in his satire The Letting of Humours Blood in the Head-Vaine, referred to 'a Bowe-bell 'X'. Francis Grose's A Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue derives the term from the following story:

"A citizen of London, being in the country, and hearing a horse neigh, exclaimed, Lord! how that horse laughs! A by-stander telling him that noise was called Neighing, the next morning, when the cock crowed, the citizen to shew he had not forgot what was told him, cried out, Do you hear how the Cock Neighs?"

At a public meeting in _____ town hall on 26 March 1839, Captain Edmund Gardiner proposed "that from the lively interest which had been manifested at the various boat races which have taken place on the _____ reach during the last few years, and the great influx of visitors on such occasions, this meeting is of the opinion that the establishing of an annual regatta, under judicious and respectable management, would not only be productive of the most beneficial results to the town of _____, but from its peculiar attractions would also be a source of amusement and gratification to the neighbourhood, and the public in general."

The regatta was first staged in 1839 on the river Thames and proved so successful that it was expanded the next year from one day to two the next year. As the regatta's popularity has grown it has further expanded: to three days in 1886, four days in 1906 and five days in 1986. The regatta has been known as 'X' since 1851, when Prince Albert became a patron. Since his death, every reigning monarch has agreed to be the patron.

'X' is a simplified language that develops as a means of communication between two or more groups that do not have a language in common. It is most commonly employed in situations such as trade, or where both groups speak languages different from the language of the country in which they reside (but where there is no common language between the groups). Fundamentally, 'X' is a simplified means of linguistic communication, as it is constructed impromptu, or by convention, between groups of people. 'X' is not the native language of any speech community, but is instead learned as a second language. 'X' may be built from words, sounds, or body language from multiple other languages and cultures. 'X' usually have low prestige with respect to other languages. Not all simplified or "broken" forms of a language are 'X's. Each 'X' has its own norms of usage which must be learned for proficiency in the 'X'.

In theoretical physics, 'X' is a hypothetical universe with no global definition of charge. What a Klein bottle is to a closed two-dimensional surface, 'X' is to a closed three-dimensional volume. The name is a reference to a character in 'Y's book.

'X' can be considered to allow at least two topologically-distinct routes between any two points (it is doubly connected), and if one connection (or "handle") is declared to be a "conventional" spatial connection, at least one other must be deemed to be a non-orientable wormhole connection.

Once these two connections are made, we can no longer define whether a given particle is matter or antimatter. A particle might appear as an electron when viewed along one route, and as a positron when viewed along the other. If we define a reference charge as nominally positive and bring it alongside our "undefined charge" particle, the two particles may attract if brought together along one route, and repel if brought together along another - the 'X' loses the ability to distinguish between positive and negative charges, except locally.

The cord is given a slight initial twist, and the ____ is then swung in a large circle in a horizontal plane. The aerodynamics of the ____ will keep it spinning about its axis even after the initial twist has unwound. The cord winds fully first in one direction and then the other. It makes a characteristic vibrato sound with notable modification from both Doppler effect and the changing speed of the ____ at different parts of its circuit. By modifying the expansiveness of its circuit and the speed given it, the modulation of the sound can be controlled, making the coding of information possible. The low frequency component of the sound travels extremely long distances, especially on the wind.

A 1791 London publication explains the Mesmer’s theory of the vital fluid :

“Modern philosophy has admitted a plenum or universal principle of fluid matter, which occupies all space; and that as all bodies moving in the world, abound with pores, this fluid matter introduces itself through the interstices and returns backwards and forwards, flowing through one body by the currents which issue therefrom to another, as in a magnet, which produces that phenomenon which we call 'X'. This fluid consists of fire, air and spirit, and like all other fluids tends to an equilibrium, therefore it is easy to conceive how the efforts which the bodies make towards each other produce _____, which in fact is no more than the effect produced between two bodies, one of which has more motion than the other; a phenomenon serving to prove that the body which has most motion communicates it to the other, until the medium of motion becomes an equilibrium between the two bodies, and then this equality of motion produces _____.”

One of the first mentions of the automatic writing method used in the 'X' is found in China around 1100 BCE, in historical documents of the Song Dynasty. The method was known as fuji or "planchette writing". During the late 19th century, planchettes were widely sold as a novelty. The businessmen Elijah Bond and Charles Kennard had the idea to patent a planchette. The patentees filed on May 28, 1890 for patent protection and thus had invented the first 'X'. Issue date on the patent was February 10, 1891. 'X' is an egyptian word which means "good luck" but the more widely accepted etymology, is that the name came from a combination of the French and German words for "yes". 'X' is marked with the letters of the alphabet, the numbers 0-9, the words 'yes' 'no' and 'goodbye', and sometimes other symbols and words are also added to help personalize 'X'.

'X' are a class of educational robots designed originally in the late 1940s (largely under the auspices of researcher William Grey Walter) and used in computer science and mechanical engineering training. These devices are traditionally built low to the ground with a roughly hemispheric (sometimes transparent) shell and a power train capable of a very small turning radius. The robots are often equipped with sensor devices which aid in avoiding obstacles and, if the robot is sufficiently sophisticated, allow it some perception of its environment. 'X' robots are commercially available and are common projects for robotics hobbyists. 'X' robots are closely associated with the work of Seymour Papert and are commonly used in 'Y' in computer education.

A core tenet of 'X's philosophy is that "minds are what brains do". The 'Y' theory views the human mind and any other naturally evolved cognitive systems as a vast society of individually simple processes known as agents. These processes are the fundamental thinking entities from which minds are built, and together produce the many abilities we attribute to minds. The great power in viewing a mind as a society of agents, as opposed to the consequence of some basic principle or some simple formal system, is that different agents can be based on different types of processes with different purposes, ways of representing knowledge, and methods for producing results.

'X', also known as fast leg theory, was a cricketing tactic devised by the English cricket team for their 1932–33 Ashes tour of Australia, specifically to combat the extraordinary batting skill of Australia's Don Bradman. A 'X' delivery was one where the cricket ball was pitched short so as to rise towards the body of the opposing batsman on the line of the leg stump, in the hope of creating legside deflections that could be caught by one of several fielders in the quadrant of the field behind square leg. This tactic was considered by many to be intimidatory and physically threatening. Although no serious injuries arose in the series from any short-pitched deliveries while a leg theory field was set, the tactic still led to considerable ill feeling between the two teams. Over the next two decades, several of the Laws of Cricket were changed to prevent this tactic being repeated.

'X' is a computer Easter egg found in 'Y' and 'Z'. There is no real book entitled 'X'. However, apparent quotations hidden in 'Y' and 'Z' give this impression by revealing passages in the style of apocalyptic literature, such as the Book of Revelation in the Bible. There are five official verses of 'X' which have been included in shipping releases, although various unofficial verses can be found on the World Wide Web. All five official verses have scriptural chapter and verse references, although these are actually references to important dates in the history of 'Y' and 'Z'. The five verses all refer to the activities of a fearsome-sounding "beast". In its early days, 'Y' had a green fire-breathing dragon-like lizard mascot, known as 'Z'. From this, it can be conjectured that the "beast" referred to in 'X' is a type of fire-breathing lizard, which can be viewed as a metaphor for, or personification of 'Y'.

Laguna de Guatavita is located in the municipality of Sesquilé, in the Cundinamarca Department of Colombia, 35 miles north-east of Bogota, capital of the Republic of Colombia. The lake was reputedly one of the sacred lakes of the Muisca, and a ritual conducted there is widely thought to be the basis for the legend of 'X'. The legend says the lake is where the Muisca celebrated a ritual in which the Zipa (named 'X' by the Conquistadores) was covered in gold dust, then venturing out into the water on a ceremonial raft made of rushes, he dived into the waters washing off the gold. Afterward, trinkets', jewellery and other precious offerings were thrown into the waters by worshipers. A few artifacts of gold and silver found at bottom hold proof to this claim; however, to date, the trips to the bottom of the lake have yielded no more than these.

It was the site of the so-called Friday Street Club. The Club, meeting monthly, was allegedly founded by Sir Walter Raleigh in 1603, and included some of the Elizabethan era's leading literary figures, among them Ben Jonson, John Donne, John Fletcher and Francis Beaumont, Thomas Coryat, John Selden, Robert Bruce Cotton, Richard Carew, Richard Martin, and others—including, perhaps, William Shakespeare. According to legend, Shakespeare and Jonson had battle-of-wits debates in which they discussed politics, religion, and literature.

One explanation of 'X' is that the 'X' blocks blood and nerve responses from reaching the brain, leading to unconsciousness.

Another conjecture is that it can be done by applying strong and surgically precise pressure over baroreceptors of the carotid sinus.The objective would be to elicit the baroreceptor reflex as the receptors detect an apparent high pressure state due to the externally applied force and causes reflex bradycardia and/or hypotension, leading to decreased blood supply to the brain and syncope.

'X' was involved in an unsavoury incident with Rudi Völler when West Germany played the Netherlands in the 1990 World Cup. 'X' was booked for a bad tackle on Völler. As 'X' took up position for the free kick he spat in Völler's hair. Völler complained to the referee and was booked as well. From the resulting free kick, Völler then dived, according to himself to avoid a collision with Dutch keeper Hans van Breukelen, while others, notably 'X', saw it as a dive in hopes for a penalty. 'X' again confronted Völler by twisting his ear and stamping on his foot. Both Völler and 'X' were sent off but 'X' again spat in Völler's hair as they left the pitch. The German press nicknamed him "Llama" for his spitting.

It was most popular in the early days of computing, but applies even more today, when powerful computers can spew out mountains of erroneous information in a short time.

The word 'X' dates from a late 19th/early 20th century American idiomatic phrase meaning "an extraordinary or unusual thing, person, or event; an exceptional example or instance." In time, the term also came to refer to a large lollipop. Farrell, searching for a name for his festival, liked the euphonious quality of the now antiquated term upon hearing it in a Three Stooges short film. Paying homage to the term's double meaning, a character in the festival's original logo holds one of the lollipops.

'X' generally refers to a period of adolescence for some members of the Amish, a subsect of the Anabaptist Christian movement, that begins around the age of sixteen and ends when a youth chooses baptism within the Amish church or instead leaves the community. Not all Amish use this term (it does not occur in Hostetler's extended discussion of adolescence), but in sects that do, Amish elders generally view this as a time for courtship and finding a spouse. 'X', literally "running around" in Pennsylvania German, is a contraction of __1__, an adverb meaning "around" and the verb __2__, meaning "to run" or "to skip". The word 'X' is closely related to the standard German word herumspringen for 'jumping around'. 'X' is the subject of the film documentary 'Devil's Playground', which was nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Documentary as well as three Emmy Awards.

The video consists of clips of Obama speaking the words of 'Z's song. A follow-up video shows Senator John McCain being 'Y'ed at the Republican National Convention, though it never happened; the 'Y' image was displayed on the giant blue sky background that was behind John McCain during parts of his speech, and the video was pieced together from footage of the event. The video ends with what looks like the delegation cheering while chanting Obama's name. This version won the Favorite User Generated Video award at the 35th People's Choice Awards.

'X's inspirations for the character included a bully from his school during his youth, a homeless man who had frightened him when he was eleven, and the 1970s pop song "Dream Weaver" by Gary Wright. In an interview, he says that (after hearing some noise): "When I looked down there was a man very much like 'Y' walking along the sidewalk. He must have sensed that someone was looking at him and stopped and looked right into my face. He scared the living daylights out of me, so I jumped back into the shadows. I waited and waited to hear him walk away. Finally I thought he must have gone, so I stepped back to the window. The guy was not only still looking at me but he thrust his head forward as if to say, 'Yes, I'm still looking at you.' The man walked towards the apartment building's entrance. I ran through the apartment to our front door as he was walking into our building on the lower floor. I heard him starting up the stairs. My brother, who is ten years older than me, got a baseball bat and went out to the corridor but he was gone."

The Martian colony is run by the military dictator Hazzard Pascha, who tests every settler to decide whether they should be part of the oppressive military or live a life of hard labor as a Worker.

Three years later he was arrested for a payroll robbery, September 16, 1925, in St. Louis, Missouri and served five years in prison. When paroled, 'Y' vowed that he would never see the inside of another prison. Entering into partnerships with more established criminals in the Kansas City underworld, he committed a series of bank robberies over the next several years; it was during this period that he earned the nickname 'X'. When the payroll master at one robbery first described the three perpetrators to the police, he referred to 'Y' as "a 'X' with apple cheeks". From then on he is known as 'XY'. 'XY' was also one of the prime suspects in the Kansas city massacre though he vehemently denied any involvement in it.

This, in theory, left him with a strong internal desire to tell the truth, and prove his innocence. This desire manifests itself in the form of his obsession with ______.

'X' is an American film studio and distributor which focuses on producing low-budget, usually direct-to-video productions. The studio is best known for producing titles capitalizing on productions by major studios. These titles have been dubbed "mockbusters" by the press. 'X' was founded by former Village Roadshow executives David Rimawi, Sherri Strain, and director David Michael Latt in 1997. 'X' became known in 2007 when similarities between the distributor's titles and those of major studios were reported. For example, the film Transmorphers, bears a number of similarities to the film Transformers, which was released theatrically two days after the release of Transmorphers. According to Latt, "I'm not trying to dupe anybody. I'm just trying to get my films watched. Other people do tie-ins all the time; they’re just better at being subtle about it. Another studio might make a giant robot movie that ties into the Transformers release and call it Robot Wars. We’ll call ours Transmorphers." In 2008, 20th Century Fox threatened legal action against 'X' over The Day the Earth Stopped, a film capitalizing on The Day the Earth Stood Still. The production company works currently on Titanic 2, which is slated for a late-2010 release.

However, the "China" of the story is an Islamic country, where most people are Muslims; there is a Jewish merchant who buys 'X's wares (and incidentally cheats him), but there is no mention of Buddhists or Confucians. Everybody in this country bears an Arabic name and its monarch seems much more like a Muslim ruler than a Chinese emperor.

Schafer sought to include songs from most main sub-genres of metal, including classic heavy metal, industrial metal, and doom metal, with each faction in the game favoring a specific type. Though Schafer and others on the Double Fine team had vast knowledge of specific types of metal, Ridgway turned to a used-CD store owner named Allan from Aquarius Records who had "encyclopedic knowledge" of the entire genre, and who provided the team with sample CDs to help them discover some of the more obscure metal bands. Schafer also credits 'Y' with some of the music selections for the game.

'X'(born 15,April 1940) is an English author, actor, playwright and former politician. He was a Member of Parliament and deputy chairman of the Conservative Party, and became a life peer in 1992. His political career, having suffered several controversies, ended after a conviction for perverting the course of justice and his subsequent imprisonment.

While at Oxford,'X' made a name raising money for the then little-known charity Oxfam, obtaining the support of 'The Beatles' in a charity fundraising drive. The band accepted his invitation to visit the senior common room of Brasenose College, where they were photographed with 'X' and dons of the college, although they didn't play there. The critic Sheridan Morley, then a student at Merton, was present and recalled the occasion:
'At the interval I went to the toilet, and there beside me was Ringo Starr. He asked if I knew this 'X' bloke. I said everyone in Oxford was trying to work out who he was. Ringo said: 'He strikes me as a nice enough fella, but he's the kind of bloke who would bottle your piss and sell it.'

'X' was satirically portrayed as a misunderstood secret agent, saviour of Britain and mankind and "overall thoroughly good chap", by actor Damian Lewis in the BBC drama 'X': The Truth (2002),which received strong reviews. Script writer Guy Jenkin explained that "my 'X' is the man who has frequently saved Britain over the last 30 years. He's beloved of all women he comes across, all men, all dogs – he's a superhero".

'X' was first manufactured by pharmacist Caleb Bradham in New Bern, North Carolina as 'Brad's drink'. It was named 'X' possibly due to the digestive enzyme and nuts used in the recipe. Bradham sought to create a drink that was delicious and would aid in digestion and boost energy. Automobile race pioneer Barney Oldfield was the first celebrity to endorse 'X', describing it as "A bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race". The mascot of 'X' was also featured in the Sega Saturn version of the game Fighting Vipers.
