But at Veira Park on Saturday, that’s exactly what played out during the Little League Championship games. The league-leading Twins won the minor league trophy, defeating the Marlins 8-1, while the Cubs took a 2-1 victory over the Athletics.

Welcome robot overlords. The Island’s own Tim Laursen, known on Friday night as Robot Drummer, took the stage at Nectar’s in a giant pink owl’s head with bright, lit-up yellow eyes, and four metal, retractable arms all connected to various instruments.

The smoke combined with the stage lights created a surreal atmosphere, though it was less take-me-to-your-leader and more I-come-in-peace.

Dr. Peter Laursen, a well-known family practitioner and emergency room doctor, is on a personal leave, the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital confirmed yesterday.

Hospital president and chief executive officer Tim Walsh said Dr. Prit Gill is covering Dr. Laursen’s private practice. Mr. Walsh said he could not comment further because it is a personnel matter.

This Is a Test, Only a Test

The Town of Tisbury will be testing the Emergency Notification System on Thursday, June 30, at 6 p.m. Please be advised that this is only a test of the system and in no way represents an actual emergency. Should there be an actual emergency the message would clearly define the nature of the emergency.

The purpose of the test is to ensure that in the case of an emergency in which there is a need to disseminate critical emergency-related information, the town wants to be certain that the system works as designed.
