There has been another bloodless cow mutilation found in Kansas City, Missouri and five horses in the UK last week. Some blame satanic cults, some aliens and UFOs, others claim that silent black helicopters are involved.

Perhaps my only reason to stray from my democratic roots... Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich wants to send Americans back to the moon. And that's not all. In a direct quote, Gingrich promised: "By the end of my second term, we will have the first permanent base on the moon, and it will be American."

Wonder how much does it cost to study abroad? The cost of education abroad is an important factor for any student to make his/her decision to study abroad. The cost includes the cost of tution fees, accommodation, travel food etc. Uniguru  has conducted a study on the cost of education across six popular study destinations - Australia, New Zealand, UK, US, Singapore and Malaysia; then factored in a selection of day-to-day living and student wage figures.
