For all its benefits, the rise of technology in the classroom has made it far easier for students to cheat–and get away with it. In the prewired days, plagiarism meant painstakingly copying paragraphs out of the encyclopedia; today, kids can simply highlight the text, copy and insert–a far more antiseptic process.

The video was created by Links-Tech, and it displays every component that makes up a PS4 Slim. Analysis of the video indicates that PS4 Slim will essentially be the same as a PS4, but smaller, as its name suggests. Some were hoping that PS4 Slim would be able to reach 4K resolution, but the PS4 Slim teardown video seems to dash those dreams. Those waiting for a more powerful version of the PlayStation 4 should probably hold out for PlayStation Neo, which is a device that has at least been confirmed to exist by Sony....

The Blues managed to win just 12 matches throughout the season as they completed the worst ever title defense in Premier League history. Jose Mourinho was sacked midway through the season in December over a ‘palpable discord’ with the players. At the time Jose was let go, the damage had already been done.

With Fernando Torres now officially written off as a flop and packed off to AC Milan and Demba Ba doing similar at Besiktas, Mourinho fortified his attacking lineup in the offseason. Didier Drogba replaced Samuel Eto’o in the veteran role while imminent arrival Loic Remy’s pace will give Chelsea yet more firepower. It would not be remiss to say at this stage, however, that Diego Costa is the difference between Chelsea being a mere title hopeful and Chelsea leading the Premier League race from the front....

Fabregas had a go at picking his Premier League team of the season on that show. Unsurprisingly, he did not include any Chelsea players in the team. However, surprisingly he left out Arsenal superstar Mesut Ozil from his team. In goal. he went for fellow Spaniard, David De Gea.

City officials announced on Friday that the two statues will be removed from Market Street Park and Court Square Park on Saturday, nearly four years after a white supremacist rally against the statue’s initial proposed removal left three dead and dozens injured.
