Extractions: Culture The sand scallop, Pecten ziczac , has a habitat range extending from the coast of Brazil to Venezuela and Bermuda. It has not been reported in the Caribbean, but is found occasionally off Cape Canaveral, Florida, as a by-catch of the calico fishery. In Bermuda, Pecten ziczac is found at depths ranging from two to seven meters in sandy areas, lying underneath the sand with the rim of its outer left valve showing (see photo on the left) The decline in natural populations of the sand scallop in Bermuda has triggered research studies on stock enhancement and culture techniques at BBSR, leading to the current program. Although much experimental work has been performed on the larval and post-larval stages of Pecten ziczac in South America and Bermuda, there is at present no commercial culture of this species. A synopsis of culture techniques and works in progress is provided below. Since 1987, scientists at BBSR have investigated culture techniques for all stages of the sand scallop. The most promising results in terms of aquaculture potential are the following: Pecten ziczac has a very rapid growth rate in Bermudian waters. Mature animals averaging 70mm in shell height may be reared within 10 months. This implies that animals can be spawned, cultured and harvested within a one-year period.

Extractions: Bermuda Houses and Gardens Life on a tiny, picturesque, occasionally storm-tossed subtropical island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean provides its charms and challenges for those living here. We shall be looking at how the island's architects and gardeners have, through four centuries, tried to preserve harmony between nature and the needs of man, and we'll hear from both professionals and amateurs who are making this harmony possible. Guided by leading specialists, we'll see how island conditions have influenced island life-styles, and learn some of the "secrets" of Bermuda's architecture. We'll explore Bermuda end to end, examine white-roofed houses, visit exclusive private homes and stately official residences rich with history, tradition, and treasures such as antique cedar furniture, old Bermuda silver, and garden roses. We'll also explore lush, enchanting gardens, including the famous Nonsuch Island, Bermuda's Botanical Gardens, the Bermuda Perfumery gardens and the Bermuda Biological Station's own botanically distinguished grounds, and we'll consider the ongoing struggle for existence between rare endemic and rampant introduced plant species. Our week will culminate in an evening of local music and entertainment.

Extractions: History In 1609 Admiral Sir George Somers was en route from England with supplies for the recent British settlement at Jamestown, Virginia, when his ship, Sea Venture , was wrecked off Bermuda. Finding it a rather pleasant place to be washed up, the admiral built replacement ships of fine Bermuda cedar, sailed off and left a couple of men behind to establish a British claim to the islands. The experience of these temporary British castaways is thought to have inspired Shakespeare to write The Tempest . Somers returned to Bermuda later that same year but died soon after arrival. The British renamed Bermuda the Somers Islands in honor of the admiral, but the name failed to stick. The Virginia Company took a keen interest in the islands after hearing of its suitability for colonisation, particularly in the light of Jamestown's hostile relations with the local Indians. Only three years after Somers' misadventure, the company organized 60 settlers to establish a permanent colony on the islands. Unfortunately the islands were not as abundant as was first thought. The shallow topsoil limited agriculture and the lack of water prevented commercial crops like sugar cane from being introduced. The settlers soon became reliant on food imports from the American colonies, which they paid for by supplying sea salt secured from the Turks Islands. For many years the Virginia Company, and then the Bermuda Company, ran the islands like a fiefdom. This wearied the settlers so much they sued to have the company's charter rescinded, and in 1684 Bermuda became a British crown colony. Slaves were first introduced in 1616, most of them brought forcibly from Africa though some were American Indians. They lived in degrading conditions but were generally employed as domestic servants or tradespeople rather than agricultural laborers. The skills they learnt were to stand them in good stead when slavery was abolished in 1834. At the time of emancipation 5000 of the 9000 people residing in Bermuda were registered on the census as black or 'coloured.'

Extractions: Bermuda Culture Bermudian culture is a blend of British and African heritages. The British influences predominate in institutions, including the form of government, educational system and legal framework. Judges still wear powdered wigs, bobbies direct traffic, cricket is the most popular sport and a pint of ale at the local pub is a common way to cap off a day's work. English is spoken on Bermuda and the majority of islanders are Christian. The African influence is more subtle but can be found in island music and dance - particularly in music of African origin, which comes via the West Indies, such as reggae and calypso, and also in the rhythm of Gombey dancers. Gombey dancing is the most interesting art form unique to Bermuda. While it has roots in West African tribal music, Gombey dancing also incorporates influences from Christian missionaries, the British military and, most visibly, American Indians, from whom the Gombey dancers have adapted their costumes. To the uninitiated, the Gombey dancers may just look like wildly costumed characters jumping up and down to loud music, but in fact the dancing is carefully choreographed to specific rhythms and often portrays biblical stories. The dancers traditionally take to the streets on Boxing Day and New Year's Day. Although no local artists have shaken the world with their talent, Bermuda can claim ties to a number of significant writers and painters who either lived, worked or vacationed on the island. They include Eugene O'Neill, Noel Coward, James Thurber, Peter 'big tooth' Benchley, Georgia O'Keefe and Winslow Homer.

Extractions: Bermudians are noticeably formal, but perhaps less so than in many other areas. Titles and last names are used, although Bermudians are less addicted to the use of titles than many others in Latin America and the Caribbean. Business cards (in English) are normally exchanged, but without particular formality. DECISION MAKING Introductions are helpful but not absolutely necessary. Because of the importance of consensus, few individuals have full authority to make binding decisions concerning any but the most mundane matters. Locals may assume that foreign businesspeople are fully aware of this without making it clear to them, leading to disappointments and misunderstandings. WOMEN Women often form the backbone of small-scale enterprises and are generally accorded considerable personal freedom and influence. Foreign businesswomen should experience few problems and may even be accorded special treatment by more traditional senior businessmen. There are many businesswomen from both North America and Europe operating in Bermuda in fairly high management positions.
