Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 3E93492 - Cellular telecommunications mast in Thelwall, Warrington, photographed against a blue sky, showing a steel lattice tower fitted with multiple antenna panels, transmission equipment and support structures for mobile phone coverage. The image is useful for editorial coverage of 4G and 5G rollout, mobile broadband, digital infrastructure, network coverage, planning applications, telecommunications regulation, public utilities, connectivity, smartphone use, emergency communications and the continuing expansion of wireless data networks. It can also illustrate public concern, risk perception, misinformation and conspiracy theories around mobile phone masts, radiofrequency electromagnetic fields and alleged radiation dangers. Care is needed in captioning: the mast is a source of non-ionising radio waves, not the kind of ionising radiation associated with X-rays or nuclear materials. UKHSA states that international exposure guidelines cover 5G base stations as well as older technologies, and its published 5G measurement work says exposures from 5G base stations are well below ICNIRP guideline levels. Ofcom says it has measured electromagnetic fields near mobile phone masts for many years and that all such measurements have shown public exposure levels well within the ICNIRP guidelines. The World Health Organization states that, provided overall exposure remains below international guidelines, no consequences for public health are anticipated from 5G. This makes the photograph relevant not only to infrastructure and technology stories, but also to fact-checking, science communication, anti-5G claims, online misinformation, planning objections and debates about trust in public health advice. The clear view of antenna arrays and the absence of people make it a flexible stock image for newspapers, planning documents, telecoms features,public health explainers, local news, digital inclusion reports and articles examining how ordinary suburban and village landscapes increasingly

How was the NHS Covid-19 app planned to work?
Contact tracing apps aim to automate the human process by using the phone in your pocket. More than 30 countries are building tracing apps and the UK is no different. Its tracing software “ the NHS Covid-19 app “ has been trialled on the Isle of Wight since May 7. The island was picked as a testbed before wider rollout across the UK and more than 50,000 people on the island have downloaded the app.
It's highly unlikely the Covid-19 virus is going to go away, Jonathan Van-Tam, England's deputy chief medical officer, said as details of the app were revealed at the start of May. Testing and contact tracing is going to have to become part of our daily lives in the future.
Matthew Gould, the CEO for NHSX, the technology arm of the NHS, says the logic for creating the app is clear: it can potentially allow cases to be identified earlier and reduce the spread of the coronavirus.
The app works using Bluetooth signals. Bluetooth technology within phones, which has to be turned on at all times, broadcasts an identifier that is unique to that device. The identifier is essentially a random string of numbers that updates on a regular basis and doesn't include any personal information. When your phone is near another Bluetooth device the two will exchange their identifiers. A list of all the devices, in the form of their unique codes, are stored on your phone for 28 days. Nothing else happens unless a user indicates that they are experiencing coronavirus symptoms.
There is very limited functionality within the app. The only thing that users can do is report if they have Covid-19 symptoms. Within the app there is one central question: how are you feeling today?

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AFK6AP - A food truck is a large motorized vehicle (such as a van) or trailer, equipped to cook, prepare, serve, and/or sell food.[1][2] Some, including ice cream trucks, sell frozen or prepackaged food
others have on-board kitchens and prepare food from scratch, or they heat up food that was prepared in a bricks and mortar commercial kitchen. Sandwiches, hamburgers, french fries, and other regional fast food fare is common. In recent years, associated with the pop-up restaurant phenomenon, food trucks offering gourmet cuisine and a variety of specialties and ethnic menus have become particularly popular.[3] Food trucks may also sell cold beverages such as soda pop and water. Food trucks, along with portable food booths and food carts, are on the front line of the street food industry that serves an estimated 2.5 billion people every day

Near field communication (NFC) is a set of ideas and technologies that enable smartphones and other devices to establish radio communication with each other by touching them together or bringing them into proximity, typically a distance of 10 cm (3.9 in) or less. Each full NFC device can work in 3 modes: NFC target (acting like a credential), NFC initiator (as a reader) and NFC peer to peer. Most of the first business models like advertisement tags or other industrial applications have not been successful, always overtaken by another technology (3D barcodes, UHF tags, ...)
The main advantage of NFC is that NFC devices are often cloud connected. Connected credentials can be provisioned over the air unlike a standard card (Hotel or visitor applications). All connected NFC enabled smartphones can be provisioned with dedicated apps, which gives any application hundreds of millions of potential dedicated readers in opposition of the traditional dedicated infrastructure of ticket, access control or payment readers. All NFC peers can connect a third party NFC device with a server for any action or reconfiguration.

Cricket in Australia holds 87 as a superstitiously unlucky score and is referred to as 'the devil's number.' 87 is 13 runs short of a century, but there is a more interesting story. The origin of the superstition stretches back 85 years to December 1929, when a 10-year-old Keith Miller was watching Australia\u2019s greatest cricketer in a Sheffield Shield match at the MCG.
Don Bradman was putting on a batting master class for NSW against hosts Victoria, when out of nowhere the Don was bowled neck and crop by Harry \u2018Bull\u2019 Alexander on 87. Miller was stunned. How could this happen to his hero? The number became a fixation for Miller, who would rifle through newspapers for club cricket scorecards in search for the unlucky figure.
The shock of Bradman\u2019s untimely demise stayed with Miller. The legend spread when Miller was playing district cricket for South Melbourne alongside future Test captain Ian Johnson. Johnson was dismissed on 87, providing Miller the opportunity to recount the famous incident and offer his unholy theory.
The myth began circling the cricket community and became folklore after World War II when Richie Benaud and Alan Davidson heard of it.
However, as the hype around the superstition reached its highest point, Miller decided to review the scorebook of the match only to find a shocking revelation.
Bradman was actually bowled for 89. Miller blamed the slow MCG scorecard for the error, but the damage had been done, 87 would remain forever as the Devil\u2019s number.
87 tools can be found on the XXL Swiss Army Knife. Its listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's most multi-functional penknife
EightySeven is the twenty-sixth distinct semiprime and the eighth of the form (3.q). The aliquot sum of 87 is 33 within the aliquot sequence (87,33,15,9,4,3,1,0) 86 being the eighteenth composite number in the 3-aliquot tree.
87 is the sum of the squares of the first four primes. It is also the sum of the sum of divisors of the first ten integers.
Its the atomic number of francium and in the world of model railways, the ratio of the popular H0 scale is 1:87.
Proto:87 scale claims to offer precise proportions of wheels and tracks of real railways.
British Rail Class 87 is a type of electric locomotive built from 1973\u201375 by British Rail Engineering Limited (BREL). 36 of these locomotives were built to work passenger services over the West Coast Main Line (WCML). They were the flagships of British Rail's electric locomotive fleet until the late 1980s. Most have now been exported to Bulgaria.

Sixty-four is the number of sexual positions in the Kama Sutra, the square of 8, the cube of 4, and the sixth power of 2. It is the smallest number with exactly seven divisors. It is the lowest positive power of two that is adjacent to neither a Mersenne prime nor a Fermat prime. 64 is the sum of Euler's totient function for the first fourteen integers. It is also a dodecagonal number and a centered triangular number. 64 is also the first whole number that is both a perfect square and a perfect cube.
Since it is possible to find sequences of 64 consecutive integers such that each inner member shares a factor with either the first or the last member, 64 is an Erd\u0151s\u2013Woods number. In base 10, no integer added up to its own digits yields 64, hence it is a self number.
International direct dial calls to New Zealand are prefixed +64 and the Beatles sang about 'When I'm Sixty-Four'.
'Every summer we can rent a cottage
In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck, and Dave...'
Sixty Four is the atomic number of gadolinium, a lanthanide. In some computer programming languages, 64 is the size in bits of certain data types. Also old fogeys reading this might stil remember the Commodore 64 (which was actually an 8 bit computer). For chess or draughts, the total number of black (dark) and white (light) squares on the game board. In Russia, 64 is the title of a popular Chess magazine reflecting the link.
The $64,000 Question is an American game show broadcast from 1955\u20131958, which became embroiled in the scandals involving TV quiz shows of the day.
The little fella just reminded me too, that 64 is the maximum stack size in the popular game Minecraft.

Forty-Two is a pronic number and an abundant number
its prime factorization 2 \u00b7 3 \u00b7 7 makes it the second sphenic number and also the second of the form { 2 \u00b7 3 \u00b7 r }. As with all sphenic numbers of this form, the aliquot sum is abundant by 12. 42 is also the second sphenic number to be bracketed by twin primes
30 is also a pronic number and also rests between two primes. 42 has a 14 member aliquot sequence 42, 54, 66, 78, 90, 144, 259, 45, 33, 15, 9, 4, 3, 1, 0 and is itself part of the aliquot sequence commencing with the first sphenic number 30. Further, 42 is the 10th member of the 3-aliquot tree.
It is a Catalan number. Consequently
42 is the number of noncrossing partitions of a set of five elements, the number of triangulations of a heptagon, the number of rooted ordered binary trees with six leaves, the number of ways in which five pairs of nested parentheses can be arranged, etc.
The atomic number of molybdenum &
the angle rounded to whole degrees for which a rainbow appears (the critical angle). In the TIFF image file format, the second 16-bit word of every file is 42, which is used together with the first word to indicate byte order.
Google returns this number when 'the answer to life the universe and everything' is entered in an internet search.
In Japanese culture, the number 42 is considered unlucky because the numerals when pronounced separately \u2014 'shi ni' (four two) \u2014 sound like the phrase, 'unto death'. The Gutenberg Bible is also known as the '42-line Bible', as the book contained 42 lines per page.

36 is both the square of 6 and a triangular number, making it a square triangular number. It is the smallest square triangular number other than 1, and it is also the only triangular number other than 1 whose square root is also a triangular number.
It is also a 13-gonal number.
It is the smallest number n with exactly 8 solutions to the equation \u03c6(x) = n. Being the smallest number with exactly 9 divisors, 36 is a highly composite number. Adding up some subsets of its divisors (e.g., 6, 12 and 18) gives 36, hence 36 is a semiperfect number.
This number is the sum of a twin prime (17 + 19), the sum of the cubes of the first three integers, and the product of the squares of the first three integers.
36 is the number of degrees in the interior angle of each tip of a regular pentagram.
The thirty-six officers problem is a mathematical puzzle.
The number of possible outcomes (not summed) in the roll of two distinct dice.
36 is the largest numeric base that some computer systems support because it exhausts the numerals, 0-9, and the letters, A-Z. See Base 36.
The truncated cube and the truncated octahedron are Archimedean solids with 36 edges.
In base 10, it is a Harshad number, its the atomic number of krypton. In one M\u0101ori legend, concerning the creation of mankind by the god T\u0101ne, 36 gods took active part in assembling the various parts of the first human before T\u0101ne breathed life into her.
Some of us will remember the IBM System/36, a minicomputer from some decades ago.

Despite being related to the word 'four' (4), 40 is spelled 'forty', and not 'fourty'. The reason is that etymologically (also in accents without the horse\u2013hoarse merger), the words have different vowels, 'forty' containing a contraction in the same way that 'fifty' contains a contraction of 'five'. This makes it the only number which, when spelled out in full, has its letters in alphabetical order.
Forty is an octagonal number, and as the sum of the first four pentagonal numbers, it is a pentagonal pyramidal number. Adding up some subsets of its divisors (e.g., 1, 4, 5, 10 and 20) gives 40, hence 40 is a semiperfect number.

WD-40 is the trademark name of a lubricant, penetrating oil and water-displacing spray. It was developed in 1953 by Norm Larsen, founder of the Rocket Chemical Company, in San Diego, California. WD-40, abbreviated from the phrase 'Water Displacement, 40th formula,' was originally designed to repel water and prevent corrosion, and later was found to have numerous household uses.
Larsen was attempting to create a formula to prevent corrosion in nuclear missiles, by displacing the standing water that causes it. He claims he arrived at a successful formula on his 40th attempt. WD-40 is primarily composed of various hydrocarbons.

Sixteen is the fourth power of two. For this reason, 16 was used in weighing light objects in several cultures.
The British have 16 ounces in one pound
the Chinese used to have 16 liangs in one jin. In old days, weighing was done with a beam balance to make equal splits. It would be easier to split a heap of grains into sixteen equal parts through successive divisions than to split into ten parts.
Chinese Taoists did finger computation on the trigrams and hexagrams by counting the finger tips and joints of the fingers with the tip of the thumb. Each hand can count up to 16 in such manner.
The Chinese abacus uses two upper beads to represent the 5s and 5 lower beads to represent the 1s, the 7 beads can represent from a hexadecimal digit from 0 to 15 in each column.
Sixteen is the minimum age to get married with parental consent in many countries and without parental consent in Scotland. Its the legal drinking age in Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, the Netherlands and Portugal. Many bank card numbers are 16 digits long.
16+ shops are taking over Britain and mailorder bigger sizes from JD Williams and others are all the rage. They are everywhere, its all the rage - wardrobeflair.blogspot.co.uk/2011/07/sexy-size-16.html
