Happening in the World: Titanic II, an exact replica with the same cabin layout as the original, is set to make its two-week voyage in 2022. It will sail the same route as the original, from Dubai to Southhampton, England to New York. The ship has cost $500 million, and will be making more than just one voyage (hopefully). After its maiden voyage, it will be embarking on other global routes.

Happening in the US: A lioness at the Indianapolis Zoo has killed the father of her three cubs. They were housed together at the zoo for 8 years with their three cubs. The lioness was in a physical confrontation with the lion, biting the 10-year-old male in the neck until he stopped moving. Further investigation will be made on this incident as to why and how to prevent further altercations.

Happening in NYC: Nassau University Medical Center on Long Island welcomed a “miracle baby” in July, and after three months in the hospital, mother and daughter are finally home. The baby weighed only 530 grams, about as large as an adult hand. She was delivered prematurely via C-section. The medical staff has become family for both mother and daughter after receiving 3 months of attentive healthcare.

Happening on Campus: Join CSER (Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race) on their discussion, “Crazy Rich Asians: Race, Representation, Resistance?” This talk was inspired by the recent tensions and successes of the movie Crazy Rich Asians. The discussion will take place in the Diana Center and is open and free to the public.

Restaurant of the week: Ootoya in Times Square (and probably every other location) has the most delicious Oyako don (chicken, egg, onion with rice) and Japanese desserts such as Anmitsu (agar jelly with additives like matcha and red bean). Prices are slightly on the expensive side (20-40$). The Times Square location is good for a pre-show meal with the parents.
