    The country's first underwater solar-powered and coral-beaded rosary was installed in Albay Gulf yesterday. Dubbed as "Coral Genesis," the 60 coral beads with attached solar panels, bulbs and a concrete crucifix forming a 65-meter rosary was installed 25 feet deep in the coastal waters of Sto. Domingo town in Albay. Martin Reynoso, chairman of Jaycees Legazpi chapter which sponsored the project, said the giant coral rosary automatically lights up at night.
