34 is the ninth distinct semiprime and has four divisors including one and itself. Its neighbors, 33 and 35, also are distinct semiprimes, having four divisors each, and 34 is the smallest number to be surrounded by numbers with the same number of divisors as it has. It is also in the first cluster of three distinct semiprimes, being within 33, 34, 35; the next such cluster of semiprimes is 85, 86, 87.
It is the ninth Fibonacci number and a companion Pell number. Since it is an odd-indexed Fibonacci number, 34 is a Markov number, appearing in solutions with other Fibonacci numbers, such as (1, 13, 34), (1, 34, 89), etc.
I think that we all learned something there...
Back to football and we are pleased to confirm the signing of Daniel Akiat for next season. Dan like Ollie is returning to Leckhampton Rovers having started his career playing in the Panthers. Dan brings significant quality to the team and furthers our attacking options. There is a medical and personal terms to agree but those are suspected to be a formality, 5 push ups and note from his mum will suffice.
On hearing that the deal was close to being done Dan declined to comment to the assembled media and simply raised his index finger skyward. Very enigmatic and despite the sage nodding of heads nobody really understood what he meant.
This concludes the LRFC Cougars business for the new season. As we look ahead to U16's we have an incredibly strong squad with real ability across all positions.
Welcome aboard Dan!
