Last night, Bostonist had the pleasure of meeting the Portland Cello Project , an enjoyable blend of classical, rock, and pop songs played out on cello strings. From Manuel De Falla's "Danza Del Fuego" to Britney Spears' "Toxic," the group ran the gamut of sounds both typical for and atypical of the classical instrument. PCP member Anna Fritz played her own composition, "Breath...

Obviously there's a lot of discussion about whether fascists should be allowed a platform like that of the BBC. Will they hang themselves if we give them enough rope, or use that rope to hang us? Does the election of two BNP members to the European Parliament change the game, or is it same shit different day? As a service to the community I thought I'd round up some of the discussion taking place at...

Well I am back after a week in Vegas and it looks like I missed some pretty big stuff in the minors. Lets get to it. Gwinnett 4, Norfolk 3 B. Jones 2-4 2B, RBI, BB, K M. Young 0-4 BB, CS(1) B. Brownlie 6IP 8H 2R 1BB 5K Brandon Jones appears to be picking up where he left off in August. I am sure once the playoff picture in the IL is cleared up Brandon will get a look in Atlanta. I am sad to see that...

Alright I am finally back off of vacation. Lets get this thing going. Gwinnett 2, Norfolk 5 G. Blanco 2-4 B. Conrad 2-4 K B. Jones 1-4 2B A rare loss for the Braves in August. Gwinnett is actually a .5 game back for the best record in the league right now and has all but locked up a playoff spot. I wonder who we will see get the call come September? If the G-Braves are in the playoffs we may not see...

Gwinnett 5, Norfolk 4 J. Schafer 0-3 K JC Holt 2-5 2 SB(9) B. Jones 2-4 2B, RBI Another solid start for the young gun John Halama . I guess he has been a solid pick up for Gwinnett so far this season as they desperately needed some pitching depth after the trades and promotions. Gwinnett is sitting 2.5 ames back in the standings behind Norfolk and Durham. Mississippi 0, West Tenn 1 S. Diamond 8IP 2H...

Louisville lost 7-2 to Norfolk , as for some reason Daryl Thompson left after pitching three scoreless innings. No word yet if it's an injury or not. Ben Jukich relieved him, and gave up 3 runs in 1 2/3 innings, but the all-of-a-sudden-terrible Pedro Viola gave up 4 runs to balloon his once spotless ERA up to 5.17 on the season. Drew Stubbs ' first HR of the season was responsible for both of the Bats...
