Amber Alert 

A message that conveys information about a recently missing or abducted person, usually displayed on electronic signs positioned along roadways. This message is broadcast by mass media, intended to enlist the public's help in finding the abducted person and often in catching the abductor.

It was named in honor of 9 year old Amber Hagerman, who was abducted and murdered.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
