Edinburgh ranks among world’s best
The University has for the second year running been listed in the top 25 universities of the world.
The Times Higher Education - QS World University Rankings place Edinburgh 23rd, the same position it achieved last year.
Now in their fifth year, the rankings list the top 200 universities in the world.
Edinburgh is the only Scottish University and one of only six British institutions to appear in the top 25.
The 2008 ranking of the universities I studied/am studying:
1. The University of Hong Kong (HKU): 26th
2. The University of Queensland (UQ): 43th
3. The University of Edinburgh (EU): 23rd!!! YAY!
4. Fudan University: 113th (Not bad for a university in China!)

Pasta Hut
In case you don't know, Pizza Hut in the UK has changed its name to Pasta Hut to "encourage healthy eating".
The chain, which launched its first restaurant in Britain in 1973, is replacing its pizza-focused menu with a menu consisting mainly of pasta dishes.
This means that as well as the traditional deluxe pizzas, customers will also have the option of ordering more sophisticated dishes such as tomato and mozzarella mezzaluna and prawn and crayfish arrabiata.
The re-branding is part of an £18 million revamp package designed to attract new customers and move it into more upmarket terrain.
As part of the revamp, the chain is temporarily naming 30 of its branches Pasta Hut.
