                | Greetings everyone.... 
 Did you 
                  have a good Labor Day weekend?  We hope so... we spent it 
                  on the golf course, losing as many balls to the water traps as 
                  we could (in other wards, WAAAAYYYYY too many).  But it 
                  was fun, it was relaxing, and it meant a short work week. 
                   Despite that short week, we have new information for 
                  you, new photos, new articles, and more.
 
 One thing 
                  we'd like to ask you to do is periodically click on the Google 
                  advertisements to the right on the main page and latest news 
                  page.  It doesn't cost you anything and it helps support 
                  MNN.  Also, please make sure to support our advertisers. 
                   They are the ones which allow us to continue bringing 
                  you the latest news, great photos and everything else we 
                  offer.
 
 Doing anything on Saturday, September 
                  23rd?  Little Texas is performing in a special 
                  outdoor, intimate concert under the stars at Dyer Observatory 
                  in Brentwood, TN., at 7:00pm.  Doors open at 4 PM with 
                  tickets ranging from $7 for students; $12 for Vanderbilt 
                  University faculty/staff and Bluebird on the Mountain season 
                  ticket holders; and $15 for general public. In addition, there 
                  is a $50 VIP ticket that will allow for pre-show access and a 
                  meet & greet with the band.  Proceeds from this 
                  benefit concert will be used to expand programs at Dyer 
                  Observatory that tell the story of science and that provide 
                  hundreds of area students the chance to see the wonders of the 
                  stars and to interact with world class explorers who are at 
                  the forefront of new discoveries.  CLICK 
                  HERE to visit 
                  Ticketmaster and purchase tickets for this concert.
