Looking for a new and affordable dining experience in Nashville? Get a taste of New York right here in Green Hills! Noshville is an authentic New York delicatessen whose founders traveled coast to coast to collect the components of the best delicatessans in the country and combine them into one great place to eat. Breakfast is served all day as well as anything else you could possibly desire. You can order griddlecakes as big as your face and soup and sandwiches of all combinations. They also have amazing homemade desserts. Noshville truly is “an eating experience, not just a place to eat.” In my multiple experiences there, the food has always tasted great and exceeded my expectations. Imagine having an entire menu of your grandmother’s home-cooked food to choose from. Fresh made bagels, the ultimate delicatessen burger and homemade soups are highly recommended, but never leave Noshville without experiencing the delectable New York Cheesecake or the scrumptious seven-layer chocolate cake. If you’re looking for something on the lighter side, try one of the 20 different omelets offered or create your own. Fresh salads and vegetarian dishes are also available. Regardless of the meal you eat, you will leave with your mouth watering for more. Noshville also offers a catering and take-out service, so next time you get put in charge of bringing food to an event, keep Noshville in mind. They offer items like roast beef or turkey carving stations, shrimp cocktail, assorted trays and platters, box lunches, desserts and drinks. If none of these options meet your needs, they will also customize a menu to fit your specifications. “The house rules are simple: check your cares at the door, order with...
![[FIRST MATCH FRIDAY V. BELMONT] Lipscomb Ultimate: Story behind mystery team](http://luminationnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/59203_1394952962974_1506690024_30882589_1989916_n2-448x675.jpg)

For most Lipscomb students, playing Ultimate Frisbee is only a hobby. But for a small group of students it is a full-blown sport. Jordan Bates, a Senior marketing major from Nashville, got the idea to start the Ultimate team in 2009 after watching some other people play. “I just saw a lot of people playing Ultimate in intramurals, and I thought that a lot of people had the potential to be really good,” Bates said. “We’ve grown and gotten a lot better since that point.” After the idea of the team came together, the next step was actually to turn that idea into action. The suggestion of an Ultimate Frisbee team was presented to SGA in order to get the appropriate funds for jerseys and tournament entry fees. “I think it was good exposure for the school, and it gets more people involved with extra curricular activities on campus,” Bates said. “They have been kind enough thus far to give us really good funding to enter tournaments.” The Ultimate circuit is not defined in conferences like the rest of the sports at Lipscomb. Instead, the region divisions are called “sections.” Lipscomb is in the Alabama section along with teams like Auburn, Alabama, Ole Miss, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt and several other large schools. “It’s a pretty big deal in college,” Bates said. “Most schools have a team, if not two.” Don’t think that just because Lipscomb is competing against larger schools that they cannot contend. Last season the Bisons came in seventh out of 20 teams in their sectional tournament. “It feels great knowing that we are lining up with big SEC...

It was just like a rivalry win is supposed to be: tough, focused and full of hard work. The Lady Bisons won the first match against the “Battle of the Boulevard” rival Belmont in four sets. “Belmont is going to be one of the top three or four teams [in the conference],” said Lady Bisons coach Brandon Rosenthal. “Winning the way we did where we had to fight through [sets] three and four just adds a bit more confidence.” The Lady Bisons won the first two sets 25-19 and 25-18. Belmont fired back in the third set winning 25-23. “It was about execution,” said Rosenthal. “Whether we win the point or not we have to execute”. The Lady Bisons rallied behind seniors Alex Kelly, and Jake Pease to win the final match 25-15. “Alex and Jake are players and people who just want to win,” said Rosenthal. “They’re willing to do whatever it takes.” “During the fourth set the girls really settled down and served tough,” Rosenthal said. “The substitution of Claire Peterson was key there at the end of the match.” A win against Belmont is always extra special to the Lady Bisons. “I don’t take this for granted, and I don’t think the girls do,” coach Rosenthal said. “This is a rivalry. It runs deep for us.” The Lady Bisons travel to St. Louis this weekend for the Billiken...

Sept. 11, 2001, is a date most will never forget. We remember the sight of the first tower falling, followed shortly thereafter by the second. We remember people crossing the Brooklyn Bridge by the hundreds. We remember firefighters, police officers and port authority officers showing a great amount of bravery as they went upstairs into the World Trade Center building while civilians ran downstairs. We remember seeing faces covered with dust and tears. One thing is almost guaranteed — those images are ingrained into our minds, never to leave. Saturday marked the ninth anniversary of those terrorist attacks on our country. Thousands of innocent lives were lost that day, and millions more were forever changed. But how did your peers react to the attacks that day, and in the days after? It’s hard to imagine that most of the students at Lipscomb have lived half of their lives in a post 9/11 world. Whether we were in class, at home or in the car, we all have a story to tell about that day. They are all unique in their own right. These students were asked what they remembered about where they were and how they found out about the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. These are their responses. Raleigh McCool, a senior English major from Nashville — “I was in ninth grade at my high school and I remember walking out into the hallway, and there was a girl beside me and she said, ‘There was a bomb in an airplane and it had blown up in a building.’ I had no idea what she was talking about....

A Nashville gem, Shakespeare in the Park, closes its show Love’s Labor’s Lost this weekend in Centennial Park. Shakespeare in the Park has been a part of Nashville for 23 years. Thousands gather each year in the Centennial Park Bandshell for a night of celebrating the Nashville theatre scene and enjoying free Shakespeare. Love Labor’s Lost is a comedy about four men who renounce love for academics, but Cupid takes control when four beautiful women show up. Taking a very earthy approach, the play combines the natural elements with a Victorian time period. The show runs Thursday through Sunday starting at 7:30 p.m. However, if you want to find a place to spread your blanket, you need to arrive by 6:45 p.m. The show is free, but a $5 donation is suggested, which goes to their production costs. This weekend is the closing weekend and your last chance to experience Shakespeare in the Park. Nashville Shakespeare Festival will be debuting its first piece not written by William Shakespeare this fall. They are presenting “Shakespeare’s Case” in which Shakespeare is charged with being irrelevant and forced to testify in court. Next year’s summer production will be Romeo and Juliet. But that’s not all! This month is full of Nashville culture. Greek Fest runs September 10-12 at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church near the intersection of Franklin Pike and Tyne Boulevard. The Italian Lights Festival also happens this weekend, and Oktoberfest is scheduled for October 9 in historic Germantown in Nashville. Don’t have plans for Saturday night? Stomp some grapes, make a picnic of baklava and head to Centennial Park for...
