The southern-most breaking reef in Bermuda is not a coral or rock formation but made from fossilized prehistoric worms. The structure is incredibly strong and can easily withstand the strong winter storms.
Today was a fine day to be surveying the coral reefs around Bermuda; calm seas, blue skies and plenty of healthy reefs to see. In a narrow band, along the south side of the island are algae cup reefs or ‘boiler reefs’ as they are locally known. The top of these reefs grow very close to the surface (and are often exposed) so water churning over them looks like it is boiling; consequently, continue reading

There’s an army rising up
To Break every chain
Break every chain
Break every chain
You declare that the chains are broken
I hear the chains falling.
The Summer Art Walk took place on Saturday, June 15, 2013 in The Town of St. George’s, Bermuda
The day got off to a rocky start due to a fluke storm that took up a good chunk of the morning. As fate would have it the skies cleared just in time for the Art Walk!
Artists such as Heidi Cowen, Christopher Grimes, Jill Amos Raine, Carole Hovercroft, and Trisha Walters had tables lined up along Water Street.
Peter Frith from The National Trust opened the Tucker House Museum especially for the Art Walk and as luck would have it Lawrence Trimingham decided to use the Tucker House Museum to display his Rembrandt/Baroque style portraits.
Chewstick provided fabulous entertainment on the Square, while buskers played and sang throughout the Olde Towne of St. George’s.
Dancers from the Bermuda African Dance Company made the mood festive by parading down Water Street.
Michael Walsh did his performance piece of selling love for a penny , Donna Smith, Diane Amos, Sharon Wilson and Monica Jones were situated further down Water Street opposite Tavern on by the Sea.
1 Undread entertained passer bys with their dark electro pop music outside of CV Café and Nea Simons owner of the Cave staged a fashion show that featured clothing from local clothing stores outside of the World Heritage Centre.
Triton Tattoo/The Endemic Arts Collective had their doors open to the public and surprised everyone with the band Bashee playing live with amazing front woman Michele Morfitt.
The Bermuda National Gallery partnered up with the Summer Art Walk and had their inaugural opening of their satellite gallery BNG East located in the Bridge House.
James Cooper was the lucky artist to have his uber modern photo surrealism art work as the first exhibit at the gallery. Both BNG East and James Cooper put on one hell of a show.
It was a great event that left you feeling inspired and longing for the next Art Walk which will take place on Sunday, November 3 at 4pm.

FINANCE Minister E.T. (Bob) Richards once again forced to defend statements from the office of Premier Craig Cannonier concerning the number of expats who have left Bermuda and the number of unemployed residents.
As he tells ZBM’s Tari Trott, the evidence is overwhelming that many people have left the island due to the recession.
PREMIER Craig Cannonier’s office has responded to criticism over his claims on those unemployed and who have left the island due to the recession… however, as ZBM’s Tari Trott discovers, the numbers provided in support of the claims are conflicting.

Quando sono solo
Sogno all’orizzonte
E mancan le parole
Sì lo so che non c’è luce
In una stanza quando manca il sole
Se non ci sei tu con me, con me
Su le finestre
Mostra a tutti il mio cuore
Che hai acceso
Chiudi dentro me
La luce che
Hai incontrato per strada
Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso si li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
It’s time to say goodbye
Quando sei lontana
Sogno all’orizzonte
E mancan le parole
E io sì, lo so
Che sei con me, con me
Tu mia luna, tu sei qui con me
Mio sole, tu sei qui con me
Con me, con me, con me
Time to say goodbye
Paesi che non ho mai
Veduto e vissuto con te
Adesso sì li vivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
Con te io li rivivrò
Con te partirò
Su navi per mari
Che, io lo so
No, no, non esistono più
Con te io li rivivrò
Con te partirò
Io con te
