With its grand opening just over a week ago, the Waka Dog Café is the newest addition to South Bend's deep arsenal of eateries. The Waka Dog Café replaced the not-so-great Falafel Express, right next door to Between the Buns and Studebagels. Making the move from its former Mishawaka location, Waka Dog should definitely be on your list of places to eat off campus when quarter dogs just aren't good enough.

It's nearing the end of January, which means that Valentine's Day is right around the corner. For some, this means a cute date with a boyfriend or girlfriend featuring a nice dinner and special guest appearances from Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams. Throughout the years, however, I have found that an overwhelming number of individuals have not and will not be partaking in such festivities. In past years, I have heard a nonstop buzz of negativity surrounding V-day and all that goes along with the occasion. People from all over the world have declared themselves, proud or not, as solo entities; they have ditched the holiday and all its lighthearted glory.

Nerds, rejoice. The question of who will take the coveted director seat of the "Star Wars" franchise has finally been answered: Mr. Bad Robot himself, J. J. Abrams. Those familiar with Abrams' long history of sci-fi work may not be surprised with the decision, but keep in mind that he rebooted the "Star Trek" franchise (long-time arch nemesis to the "Star Wars" fan base) and is set to release the next installment of that series this summer, "Star Trek: Into Darkness." The thought of such a crossover brings to mind George Costanza's speech on when "worlds collide."
