    THE MIDWIVES ASSOCIATION OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMAS ALL HONOUREES & FAMILIES AT OUR OF THE COMMONWEALTH OF THE BAHAMAS Jn 2004, Yvonne Bain, Judith Sawyer, Judith Clarke and Lydia Johnson attended a Midwifery Today Confer­ ence in Philadelphia. They were truly inspired and intrigued by what they experienced. Following the conference they met with the President of the Midwifery Today Magazine Jan Tritten and invited her to The Bahamas to hold a conference. Ms. Tritten was enthusiastic and immediately accepted the invitation, "Who wouldn't want to come to The Bahamas?" Ms. Bain along with her colleagues Jennifer King, Cleola-mae Hamilton, and Ella Anderson started putting plans in action to host the first international conference in The Bahamas. A Midwifery Conference was held in The Bahamas from September 22-26 , 2005, under the theme: Sharing The Culture ofBirth. The conference was a resounding success. Many countries were represented, and the association had the support of the Ministry of Tourism, Minister Obie Wilchombe, Ms. Valerie Miller, The Royal Bahamas Defence Force, and many others. Attendance was excellent and the Bahamian Midwives rose to the occasion with their presentations and hospitality. The first meeting of the potential organization was exciting and historical. Twenty -five midwives attended that meeting. The conference served as a catalyst to form the Midwives Association of The Commonwealth ofThe Bahamas. The following Midwives were selected to make up the initial executive team: * Ella Anderson - President * Shirley Curtis- Vice-President * Valerie Miller- Secretary * Karol Mackey- Asst. Secretary * Yvonne Bain -Treasurer * Monique Lewis- Chaplain The team started meeting regularly to put in place the Goals, Objective, Vision and By Laws of the Association.

Still, some patterns do emerge and suggest a prototype with the following characteristics: a man, either first or second gen- eration from Scotland or England, Presbyterian or Anglican, well- educated, and “bred to accounting.” He was living in the South at the time of the American Revolution, either as a merchant, the employee of a merchant, or as a slave-owning planter. When the war came he served in one of the volunteer provincial armies of the British, usually as an officer.

    WED LIKE a CELEBRITY on a DREAM LOCALE in the BAHAMAS Bahamas Contest Provides Chance for Couples to Say “I Do’S” Celebrity Style

    WED LIKE A CELEBRITY ON A DREAM LOCALE IN THE BAHAMAS Bahamas contest provides chance for couples to say “I Do’s” celebrity style FORT LAUDERDALE, FL (May 19, 2014) - Sixteen engaged couples are being offered the chance of a lifetime to exchange wedding vows celebrity style in The Islands Of The Bahamas. Through The Bahamas' 16 Islands 16 Weddings competition, 16 lucky couples can win the opportunity to join celebrities - such as former Masters champion Adam Scott - who over the years have made The Bahamas their dream locale for tying the knot. Scott created a buzz over the weekend when it was revealed that he was the latest celebrity to wed in The Bahamas, exchanging “I do’s” with longtime girlfriend, Marie Kojzar. The list of recent Bahamas wedding celebrities include Mariah Carey and Nick Canon, who were married on Eleuthera in 2008 and Penelope Cruz and Javier Barden in 2010. Also, reportedly, Johnny Depp is planning upcoming nuptials at his private retreat in Exuma, Bahamas. Freda Malcolm, ‘Director of Romance’ for The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism, said, “people of all walks of life, including celebrated personalities are drawn to The Islands Of The Bahamas for picture-perfect weddings. The setting really does it,” she said. “You place two people who are in love into an idyllic environment with blue sky, blue seas and a sandy beach, and good things happen. With the right planning, it’s very hard to beat a Bahamas destination wedding." To date over two thousand couples have signed up for The Bahamas Ministry of Tourism's major destination wedding contest, now in its last few weeks.

XS11125 Private Island This island is a very special one: it lies in one of the most beautiful parts of the Bahamas and boasts white sandy beaches and the potential for an airstrip. It has all the basic essentials for development. It is situated very near well-known island resorts and existing airstrips. Big Darby Island is located about 95 miles from Nassau, 14 miles from Great Exuma and 250 miles from Miami. It lies almost in the centre of the chain of some 360 islands known as the Exuma Cays -the yachting, sailing and fishing paradise of the Bahamas. The nearest islands are Rudder Cut Cay (with airstrip) and Musha Cay, both owned by illusionist David Copperfield. This island is surrounded by crystal clear turquoise waters and features several white sandy beaches -in all approx. 21,650 ft. of water frontage. The highest elevation is approx. 80 ft. which is exceptionally high for the Bahamas. The island can support a 3,000 ft. to 5,000 ft. runway and is adjacent to a deep protected natural harbour. An imposing 7,000-square-foot castle built by an Englishman, Sir Baxter, in 1938 is located on the island. The castle could be rebuilt into a spectacular home or clubhouse. A survey of a proposed development plan is available. A network of paths and walkways extends in southerly and westerly directions for a distance of 1.8 miles. This is a great opportunity to own a large island island in The Exuma Cays.

That population has flourished, despite the presence of invasive rats, and numbered > 300 individuals by the mid-1990s. We conducted a mark-recapture study of this population from May 2002 through May 2013 to quantify growth, demography, and plasticity in coloration. The iguanas from Bush Hill Cay were shown to reach larger sizes than the source population. Males were larger than females, and mature sizes were reached in approximately four years. Although the sex ratio was balanced in the mid-1990s, it was heavily female-biased throughout our study. Juveniles were rare, presumably due to predation by rats and possibly cannibalism.

  • On the Island of Great Exuma in the Bahamas, There Is a Luxury Resort That Exudes a Feeling of Kindness and Generosity

    On the Island of Great Exuma in the Bahamas, There Is a Luxury Resort That Exudes a Feeling of Kindness and Generosity

    On the island of Great Exuma in the Bahamas, there is a luxury resort that exudes a feeling of kindness and generosity. Guests find their expectations are exceeded on a daily basis. Claudine Williams, the Hotel Manager at the Grand Isle Resort, was asked if there was an uncommon training that goes into making guests feel so special. “I wish I could take credit for this. The truth is, the Great Exuma people have a natural gift for pleasing people,” Williams said. Guests initially choose Grand Isle for the resort’s Five-Star accommodations. But what brings you back is a natural charm that seems to be a way of life on Great Exuma. Whether you meet a bartender, housekeeper, or upper management, this “what can I do for you” personality is exhibited at every turn. What’s interesting is the Grand Isle service standard begins before you set foot on this 11-acre resort which showcases Emerald Bay Beach, a Greg Norman designed golf course, and the Caribbean Sea. Once you’ve made your reservation, the Grand Isle concierge team strives to make your life easy. Can we help with airport transfers? Can we reserve a rental car? Would you like a golf cart to explore our beautifully landscaped grounds? Can we arrange for a legendary Out Island excursion? Can we stock your villa’s refrigerator in advance? By the time you arrive at Grand Isle Resort, it’s conceivable your only stressor is deciding which island cocktail to select for Happy Hour. Arrive in Style If you’d like the concierge team to arrange for airport transfers, that means a driver will be holding a sign with your name emblazoned on it at Great Exuma’s petite international airport.
