The 5.6.7.8's

The 5.6.7.8's are a Japanese rock trio, whose music is reminiscent of American surf music, rockabilly and garage rock. They frequently cover songs from American rock and roll. All members are from Tokyo, Japan.

The 5.6.7.8's first started performing as a quartet in Tokyo, and recruited guest performers during their Australian tour, once even utilizing a male member, "Eddie". They first officially became a trio in 1992, before touring Australia.

The 5.6.7.8's made a brief appearance in the 2003 Quentin Tarantino film Kill Bill Volume 1, where they were shown playing in an izakaya.

In 2012, they appeared at the "Girls Got Rhythm" fest in St. Paul, MN alongside artists such as Ronnie Spector, The Muffs, Nikki Corvette and L'Assassins.

Members

The 5.6.7.8's formed when Sachiko and Yoshiko "Ronnie" Fujiyama, two sisters from Tokyo who both shared a passion for rock and roll, founded the band in 1986 with two other members. Originally, the line-up consisted of Yoshiko on vocals and guitar, Rico on second guitar, Yoshie on bass guitar and Sachiko on drums. After several line-up changes (including the bassist Yoshiko "Yama" Yamaguchi, who was the bassist featured in the Kill Bill movie), the band eventually became a trio after Rico and Yoshie's departures. Yoshiko and Sachiko are still the main components in the band, and now Akiko Omo has rejoined the band as the bass guitarist (She originally joined the 5.6.7.8's in the early 1990s).

6, 7, 8

Six in the Seven at Eight, usually called 6, 7, 8, was an Argentine political commentary TV program broadcast by the government-run Channel 7 since 2009. Its name comes from the fact that, when it first started airing, there were five members on the show's panel, and its motto was you are the sixth one (the viewer). Since it was broadcast by Channel 7 at 8 p.m., the name was shortened to "6, 7, 8". In late 2009, the program was moved to 9 p.m., a new segment was added to be aired on Sundays at night, and new guest panelists were invited, making it more than six members. Nevertheless, the show's name remained unchanged.

It was first hosted by María Julia Oliván and a panel which included Orlando Barone, Carla Czudnowsky, Eduardo Cabito Massa Alcántara, Luciano Galende and Sandra Russo, along with a guest analyst who would give their opinions throughout the program. María Julia Oliván announced in an interview for web site Television.com.ar that, on January 28, 2010, should make her last appearance on the program. Her place was occupied by Luciano Galende, and from 2013 onward the host has been Carlos Barragán.

5,6,7,8

"5,6,7,8" is the debut single by British pop group, Steps. The verses are performed by Lee Latchford-Evans and Lisa Scott-Lee performs the middle eight. The choruses feature no male singing voices. The song's release coincided with a minor line dancing craze in the UK at the time.

Although it is only one of two Steps singles to miss the top ten in the UK, it is also one of their highest sellers. It remained in the top 20 for ten weeks and sold over 300,000 copies, more than some of their top 5 hits. In the UK it was the biggest selling single of the 1990s not to enter the top 10 in the UK Singles Chart. It did, however, top the charts in Australia.

Music video

The official music video for the song was filmed in Marbella, Spain. It features Steps performing the song and its dance routine in colour co-ordinating outfits. Lisa Scott-Lee is seen in a green bikini top and shorts with flowers on them, Faye Tozer is seen in a yellow bikini top and sarong whilst Claire Richards is seen in an orange bikini top and sarong. Both H and Lee Latchford-Evans are wearing their shirts undone and shorts which feature a mash-up of colours. At the end, Lisa is seen wearing a red halter neck lycra dress, Faye is seen wearing a red asymmetrical top and skirt and Claire is seen wearing a red long sleeved see-through top and leather trousers. Both H and Lee are seen wearing black t-shirts and red trousers. Throughout the video, Lisa, Faye and Claire are seen driving to the beach in a 1995 Suzuki Vitara and also playing turn tables. H and Lee are seen driving on quad bikes and also playing snooker. On the choruses, they are seen performing the famous dance routine. On one chorus, they are seen showing the actions to some boys and girls. At the end of the video, they are seen on stage at a beach party with an audience watching and dancing.

142857 (number)

142857, the six repeating digits of 1/7, , is the best-known cyclic number in base 10. If it is multiplied by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, the answer will be a cyclic permutation of itself, and will correspond to the repeating digits of 2/7, 3/7, 4/7, 5/7, or 6/7 respectively.

142,857 is a Kaprekar number and a Harshad number (in base 10).

Calculations

If you multiply by an integer greater than 7, there is a simple process to get to a cyclic permutation of 142857. By adding the rightmost six digits (ones through hundred thousands) to the remaining digits and repeating this process until you have only the six digits left, it will result in a cyclic permutation of 142857

Multiplying by a multiple of 7 will result in 999999 through this process

If you square the last three digits and subtract the square of the first three digits, you also get back a cyclic permutation of the number.

It is the repeating part in the decimal expansion of the rational number 1/7 = 0.142857. Thus, multiples of 1/7 are simply repeated copies of the corresponding multiples of 142857:
