It's British slang for a pedophile that stands for "Not on normal courtyard exercise". Meaning if they are in prison, they are not sent to exercise with the others as they are at high risk of being beat up.

MPs are guaranteed a pension after spending 6 years in service as an elected MP.

He entered the parliament at age 25, ensuring him a pension since the age of 31. Although he still has to be 55 to actually start collecting it. Considering how long he has been an MP, he's probably looking at pulling in at least 100K/yr from age 55 onward.

This is what baffles me about these papers. Assuming the authors are actually real people, these AI-generated mistakes in publications should be pretty easy to catch and edit.

It does make you wonder how many people are successfully putting AI-generated garbage out there if they're careful enough to remove obviously AI-generated sentences.

Not sure about BPA, but we're closer to knowing what BPA does than what BPS does. We just replaced a somewhat studied plasticizer for an even less studied and understood one. Plasticizers never went away.

Can we delete someone else's post?

(Kidding OP, it looks really tasty but definitely not improved poutine)
