Three Thai students caught cheating during a medical college entrance exams made headlines this week for their elaborate high-tech cheating equipment. Supervisors discovered wireless cameras embedded in the frames of the students’ glasses which were connected to smartwatches on their wrists. They used the cameras to send images of questions to an external group, who then replied with the answers via the smartwatches.

That’s quite a clever setup, but sadly, the students were caught when instructors noticed that their glasses had unusually thick frames and decided to have a closer look, which led to the discovery of the hidden cameras. The story went viral on social media after Rangsit University director Arthit Ourairat posted pictures of the cheating equipment on his Facebook page.

“They did it in real-time,” Arthit wrote, adding that the students had spent a whopping 800,000 baht ($22,700) on the setup. “This was the most high-tech exam cheating system I’ve ever seen. We want this to be known in public to make people aware that we must be careful, particularly for medical exams where there is high demand among students but not many vacancies.”

Most social media users condemned the students for their actions and accused them of putting people’s lives at risk. “If they had passed and graduated, we might have had illegal doctors working for us,” a Facebook user wrote. But a few actually praised the students for their ingenuity, with comments like “Cool,” and “Like Hollywood or Mission Impossible.”

There’s no denying that the students’ plan was clever, but their intelligence actually backfired on them – they were blacklisted by the examination board and disqualified from gaining admission at the university. Their identities have been withheld, but the scandal is likely to have a negative effect on their future careers.

The entrance exam, which was held last weekend, was taken by over 3,000 students competing for only 130 spots. It has now been cancelled, and students will need to show up for a re-test on May 31 and June 1, during which all accessories will be banned.One might assume that the elaborate ploy was thought up in response to bizarre anti-cheating methods used in Thailand, like these goofy anti-cheating hats made from sheets of paper.

A Saudi Arabian family therapist has released a video giving his advice on wife beating. In the tutorial, Khaled Al-Saqaby says he is "aware that this issue is a thorny one, which contains many hazards".

He adds: "But Allah willing, we will cross this bridge safely." The footage was shot earlier this year then translated and released last month by the Washington DC-based Middle East Media Research Institute. In the video, Mr Al-Saqaby suggests the aim of beating a wife "is to discipline, not to vent one's anger". "The necessary Islamic conditions for beating must be met," he stresses. The family therapist suggests the beating should not be performed with a rod or sharp object, but instead with a tooth-cleaning twig or handkerchief.

He says: "The beating should not be performed with a rod... nor should it be a headband... or a sharp object, which, I am sad to say, some husbands use. "It should be done with something like the sewak tooth-cleaning twig - or with a handkerchief." He explains: "Because the goal is merely to make the wife feel that she was wrong in the way she treated her husband." Before beating one's wife, Mr Al-Saqaby suggests a husband reminds her of "your rights and of her duties, according to Allah".

He then recommends the husband ignores his wife in bed, by turning his back on her or if he or she sleeps on the floor. But he suggests the husband does not go to another house, as the point "is to discipline the wife, and not to air your dirty laundry in public". Giving the main reasons a man may beat his wife, he says the first is arguments between the wife and her husband.

"Unfortunately, some wives want to live a life of equality with their husband," he says. "This is a very grave problem." Other women make mistakes which may lead their husbands to beat them, he adds. Mr Al-Saqaby suggests there are some situations where a wife may hit her husband, because of his "faulty upbringing" in which he may have seen his father hit his wife and be "imitating their behaviour".

He also says he is "sad to say" some women provoke their husbands to beat them.

Lalasticlala, can u pls move this romance section? Thanks you.

1. There is a NGO that fights for women's right to be topless:
GoTopless.org is an US organization which claims that women have the same constitutional right to be bare chested in public places as men. They often promote (topless) gatherings to claim for their rights.

2. The left breast is usually larger:
No two breasts are exactly the same size, and it is usually your left breast that is bigger than the right side. However, often the difference is so slight you'd never notice they are of different sizes. Nipples also come in varying sizes, not only that, they also point in different directions.

3. Breasts are the first thing men notice in a woman:
No news here. Research conducted at the Victoria University of Wellington showed that breasts are often the first thing men look at, and for a longer time than other body parts. Nothing to be ashamed of since another study said that staring at women's breasts for just minutes a day can improve a man's health and add four to five years to his life.

4. Men can lactate too:
It's exceptionally rare, but since men possess mammary glands just like women do, they have the capacity to produce milk. When male lactation happens, it's usually because of hormonal treatments for diseases like cancer.

5. England is the country with biggest breasts in Europe:
A survey made by bra maker Triumph found that British women have the biggest boobs in Europe. More than half of women in that country wear a size D cup. Denmark scored second while Holland was third. On the other hand, Italian women had the smallest breasts where 68 percent had a size B.

6. The average breast weighs one pound:
The average breast weighs about 0.5 kilograms (1.1 lb). Each breast contributes to about 4-5% of the body fat and thus 1% of the total body weight of an average woman.

7. Breasts get fat:
In your 20s, your boobs are made up of fat, milk glands and collagen -- the connective tissue that keeps them firm. But as you age, the glands and collagen shrink and are replaced by more and more fat. Instead of making your bra size go up, however, the added flab can send breasts down, closer to the floor, if you catch our drift.

8. Breasts augmentation may lead to suicide:
Women who get breast implants are at least three times more likely to commit suicide, a risk that increases with time. As the August 2007 Annals of Plastic Surgery reported, it's unlikely that silicone toxicity causes the correlation. It's more probable that women who undergo breast augmentation are more apt to have an underlying psychiatric problem that predisposes them to suicide.

9. In China, you can major in Bra Studies:
In Hong Kong, you can get a degree in Bra Studies from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University where they teach you how to design and build a bra. Recently, the students exhibited their designs at the ACE Style Institute of Intimate Apparel at the ITC Resource Centre.
