Maria Sharapova 

Professional tennis player.
6'0" 160
Born 4/19/1987, Nyagan, USSR (now Russian Federation)
Hometown: Bradenton, FL
College: none Turned pro: 2001

A rising star in tennis, she won Wimbledon in 2004 in only her third season of professional competition. Already one of the elite in her sport, she's only going to get better. Known for grunting loudly during matches.

She is frequently compared to Anna Kournikova, another gorgeous Russian whose career ended just before Maria won Wimbledon. However, Maria has already won at a higher level than Anna ever did. In fact, Kournikova struggled to win at all, forcing her retirement at age 23.

Other Russian players have been critical of Maria's stateside residence, saying she's not really Russian.
Sharapova will be the best ever if she plays long enough.

Anna Kournikova sucks at tennis. She should stick to modeling. Maria Sharapova can do both.

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.
