A favorite holiday tradition in Bermuda is the annual Christmas Walkabout, hosted by the Bermuda National Trust. Christmas lights blanket the charming town of St. George’s and revelers enjoy plenty of entertainment throughout the evening.
Enjoy these highlights from the 2012 walkabout, held December 7th!

In memory of Toriano Wilson The Bermuda Motorcycle Racing Club (BMRC), on the eve of his birthday (Feb 26, 1994), has shared the tribute video Remembering Toriano Wilson.
The fourteen-year-old ‘golden child’ of Bermuda Motor Racing and #26 Rookies Cup Rider was involved in a high-speed, three-way crash on turn six of lap one at the Virginia International Raceway (VIR) on Sunday, August 17, 2008 during a Red Bull AMA U.S. Rookies Cup series race. He was airlifted to the UNC Hospital in North Carolina by helicopter but ultimately succumbed to his injuries.
Toriano was always full of good energy and fun, but when it came time to get ready to race, he was ready and focused. He was a practical joker at heart. I certainly wasn’t immune to Toriano’s joking. He got me good a few times! Toriano was a great kid and a hard rider. As the season progressed, he harnessed his riding style and started garnering some really good results. On any given day, it could be the #26 bike at the front. He was that talented.Toriano will be missed. – Kevin Schwantz Red Bull AMA U.S. Rookies Cup Rider Coach

De’jon began writing as a therapeutic outlet.
His writing has given insight and inspiration to others erasing the physical appearance of him while letting readers find an image through his words.
Ten years of agony and hardship has lead to De’jon’s first published book (December 14, 2011) consisting of an intimate collection of poetry – Memoirs of My Scars – that follows his path of self-acceptance and self-expression.
The first piece, entitled “I Am Not My Skin”, introduces readers to his world of isolation and pain but the poem ends with the revelation that there is more to De’Jon than his outer appearance.
De’Jon’s book has received reviews from the likes of bestselling author Enitan Bereola II. (Bereolaesque: The Contemporary Gentleman & Etiquette Book for the Urban Sophisticate)
Love, hate, anger, confusion, contentment, tragedy, despair, hope, purity, honesty, authenticity, vulnerability – this isn’t a mere collection of words…this book purges understanding onto those who have none. – Enitan Bereola II
Dej’on’s ICU nurse from Shriner’s Children’s Hospital for Burn Survivors in Boston, MANurse Maston of Shriner’s writes…
One often wonders if there is any life worth living after such an event. This collection of poetry shows the reader that although there are many struggles after such an accident, there are also many joys to be had in life.
The poetry is so well written that the reader actually feels what the author is feeling. I became so engrossed in what I was reading and although I found myself crying tears of sadness, there were also many tears of joy.
Since the accident, De’Jon has performed spoken word and has presented in Bermuda and the United States as a motivational speaker. Memoirs of My Scars is his first published literary works. His graphic design projects have been admired by many through flyers and artwork posted to Facebook. He has extended his talents to writing and creating riveting book covers for his upcoming book releases and other local books.
Memoirs of My Scars was published by CKC BOOKS, Bermuda’s newest publishing company & can be found in e-book or paper back version @

Up and coming R&B/Pop singer Devaune’s first E.P has hit the world wide web!
A highly anticipated release which is living up to fan expectations …
R.E.D (The E.P’s title) actually has nothing to do with the color or even our neighboring planet, but is rather an acronym for Devauane E. Rattery spelt backwards!
