Puzzle for the Day

Bus Puzzle

My local bus company has recently expanded and no longer has enough room for all of its buses.

Twelve of their buses have to be stored outside.

If they decide to increase their garage space by 40%, this will give them enough room for all of their current buses, plus enough room to store another twelve in the future.

How many buses does the company currently own?

Solution (Previous Puzzle):

There are 116 squares without a rook.
1x1: 61 squares.
2x2: 37 squares.
3x3: 15 squares.
4x4:  3 squares.

Podcast for the Day
Eighty-five percent of the matter in our universe is dark matter. We don’t know what dark matter is made of, and we’ve yet to directly observe it, but scientists theorize that we may actually be able to create it in the Large Hadron Collider, the most powerful particle collider in the world. So how would that work? CERN scientist Rolf Landua explains how to discover a new particle.
The hair follicle apparently knows some tricks that the other organs don’t know, says Ralf Paus, hair loss researcher. Neil and Tim talk about the wonders of hair and teach you six items of vocabulary.
