And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it." Amen.

STS-78 was the longest NASA space flight to date.

The Mission objectives were as follows:
The scheduled 15-day, 21-hour STS-78 Life and Microgravity Spacelab (LMS) mission will help set the stage for the International Space Station by studying the effects of long-duration space flight on human physiology and conducting the type of experiments that would fly on the orbital platform. Columbia will climb to a 173-statute-mile (278-kilometer)-high orbit with a 39-degree inclination to the Earth's equator to allow the seven-member flight crew to maintain the same sleep/wake rhythms they are accustomed to on Earth and to reduce vibrational and directional forces that could affect on-board microgravity experiments.

Once in orbit, the crew will enter the 40-foot (13-meter) pressurized Spacelab module to begin the 22 LMS life science and microgravity experiments in the laboratory and in lockers in the middeck area of the orbiter's crew cabin. Thirteen of the life sciences experiments will be devoted to the study of the effects of microgravity on human physiology, while six microgravity experiments will be conducted to produce metallic alloys and protein crystals and study the behavior of fluids and materials processing in the near-weightless environment of space.

The mission's experiments will build on previous Shuttle spacelab
flights dedicated to life sciences and microgravity investigations
(Spacelab Life Sciences 1 and 2 -- STS-40 and STS-58, and International
Microgravity Laboratory 1 and 2 -- STS-42 and STS-65).

The periodicity and recurrence of solar (and lunar) eclipses is governed by the Saros cycle, a period of approximately 6,585.3 days (18 years 11 days 8 hours). When two eclipses are separated by a period of one Saros, they share a very similar geometry. The two eclipses occur at the same node with the Moon at nearly the same distance from Earth and at the same time of year. Thus, the Saros is useful for organizing eclipses into families or series. Each series typically lasts 12 to 13 centuries and contains 70 or more eclipses. Every saros series begins with a number of partial eclipses near one of Earth's polar regions. The series will then produce several dozen central eclipses before ending with a group of partial eclipses near the opposite pole.

Solar eclipses of Saros 126 all occur at the Moon’s descending node and the Moon moves northward with each eclipse. The series began with a partial eclipse in the southern hemisphere on 1179 Mar 10. The series will end with a partial eclipse in the northern hemisphere on 2459 May 03. The total duration of Saros series 126 is 1280.14 years. In summary:

First Eclipse = 1179 Mar 10 07:39:51 TD
Last Eclipse = 2459 May 03 02:35:54 TD

Duration of Saros 126 = 1280.14 Years

United Nations Security Council Resolution 135

Adopted by the Security Council at its 863rd meeting, by 9 votes to none, with 2 abstentions (Poland, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics), on 27 May 1960

The Security Council,

Mindful of its responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security,

Noting with regret that the hopes of the world for a successful meeting of the Heads of Government of France, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America has not been fulfilled,

Considering that these developments have caused great disappointment and concern in world public opinion,

Considering also that the resulting situation may lead to an increase of international tensions likely to endanger peace and security,

Being convinced of the necessity to make every effort to restore and strengthen international good will and confidence, based on the established principles of international law,

Being especially aware of the mounting danger of the continuation of the armaments race,

1. Recommends to the Governments concerned to seek solutions of existing international problems by negotiation or other peaceful means as provided in the Charter of the United Nations;

2. Appeals to all Member Governments to refrain from the use or threats of force in their international relations, to respect each other's sovereignty, territorial integrity and political independence, and to refrain from any action which might increase tensions;

3. Requests the Governments concerned to continue their efforts to achieve a constructive solution of the question of general and complete disarmament under effective international control in accordance with General Assembly resolution 1378 (XIV) and the discontinuance of all nuclear weapons tests under an appropriate international control system, as well as their negotiations on measures to prevent surprise attack, including technical measures, as recommended by the General Assembly;

4. Urges the Governments of France, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the United States of America to resume discussions as soon as possible and to avail themselves of the assistance that the Security Council and other appropriate organs of the United Nations may be able to render this end.

Although composite, 145 is a pseudoprime.
Given 145, the Mertens function returns 0.
145 is a pentagonal number and a centered square number.
145 = 122 + 12 = 82 + 92. 145 is the fourth number that is the sum of two different pairs of squares. Also, 145 is the result of 34 + 43, making it a Leyland number.
145 = 1! + 4! + 5!, making it a factorion. The only other numbers that have the property that they are the sum of the factorials of their digits are 1, 2 and 40585.

149 is the 35th prime number, and with the next prime number, 151, is a twin prime, thus 149 is a Chen prime. 149 is a strong prime in the sense that it is more than the arithmetic mean of its two neighboring primes. 149 is an Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part and a real part of the form 3n − 1.

Given 149, the Mertens function returns 0. 149 is a tribonacci number.

149 is a strictly non-palindromic number, meaning that it is not palindromic in any base from binary to base 147. However, in base 10, it is a full reptend prime, since the decimal expansion of 1/149 repeats 0067114093959731543624161073825503355704697986577181208053691275167785234899328859060402684563758389261744966442953020134228187919463087248322147651 infinitely.

From ITProPortal.com. Apparently.

Computer hackers have reportedly applied sophisticated password-detection software application to steal £229million from one of the largest banking groups from Japan.

The reports unveiled that a security supervisor from the bank helped Belgian hackers to enter into the offices of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation in London back in 2004.

In a plot that seems to be cribbed from a Hollywood movie, a crooked security supervisor, named Kevin O'Donohue, smuggled a couple of Belgian hackers into the bank premises at night where they fixed spy software on systems that were used for huge cash transfers.

The key-logging software tools placed by the hackers were installed to swindle crucial information, such as usernames and passwords of the bank staff, from the computer systems.

The company accounts targeted by the hackers included those of Toshiba, Mitsui OSK Lines, Sumitomo Chemicals, and Nomura Asset Management.

The incident triggered high alert on banking security at that time, as the City of London Police and the National High Tech Crime Unit kicked off investigating the offence.

The security details were exploited to transfer money in accounts set up at various locations, such as Singapore, Dubai, Hong Kong, and Spain.

However, the money transfers were failed to process as the hackers didn't fill required data in one of the fields in the system employed by the banks to facilitate more money transfers.

Incidentally, further attempts to transfer money were checked when the bank notified about the incident to National High Tech Crime Unit in UK.

Wikipedia is your friend on this thread.

Uranium-235 is an isotope of uranium that differs from the element's other common isotope, uranium-238, by its ability to cause a rapidly expanding fission chain reaction, i.e., it is fissile. It is the only fissile isotope found in any economic quantity in nature. It was discovered in 1935 by Arthur Jeffrey Dempster.

If at least one neutron from U-235 fission strikes another nucleus and causes it to fission, then the chain reaction will continue. If the reaction will sustain itself, it is said to be critical, and the mass of U-235 required to produce the critical condition is said to be a critical mass. A critical chain reaction can be achieved at low concentrations of U-235 if the neutrons from fission are moderated to lower their speed, since the probability for fission with slow neutrons is greater. A fission chain reaction produces intermediate mass fragments which are highly radioactive and produce further energy by their radioactive decay. Some of them produce neutrons, called delayed neutrons, which contribute to the fission chain reaction. In nuclear reactors, the reaction is slowed down by the addition of control rods which are made of elements such as boron, cadmium, and hafnium which can absorb a large number of neutrons. In nuclear bombs, the reaction is uncontrolled and the large amount of energy released creates a nuclear explosion.
