Nova Bus LFS

The Nova Bus LFS (Low Floor Series) is a family of transit buses manufactured by Nova Bus, designed to provide efficient and accessible public transportation solutions. First introduced in 1996, the LFS series was developed to meet the growing demand for low-floor buses in North America, offering easier access for passengers, including those with mobility impairments. The LFS buses are available in 40-foot rigid and 62-foot articulated configurations, with the articulated version designed to accommodate higher passenger volumes. The buses feature a fully low-floor design, meaning that the floor is level with the curb, eliminating the need for stairs and making boarding easier for everyone, including passengers in wheelchairs, those with strollers, and the elderly. The series is versatile in terms of propulsion options, available in conventional diesel, compressed natural gas (CNG), hybrid diesel-electric, and battery-electric powertrains, catering to different environmental and operational needs of transit authorities.

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.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
