Ky., has applied to the SEC for exemption from the registration provisions of Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, applicable to certain issuers whose equity securities are traded over-the-counter; and the Commission has issued an order scheduling the application for hearing on November 22, 1965. Granting of the requested exemption would also exempt Merit Clothing from the periodic reporting and proxy provisions of the Exchange Act, and its "insiders" would be exempt from the reporting and related provisions of Section 16 of the Act. According to the application, Merit Clothing is engaged in the manufacture of men's clothing. As of May 31, 1965, it had outstanding 1,000 preferred and 180,000 common shares, held by 55 and 1,259 individuals respectively. Merit Clothing does not believe that the Exchange Act requires the registration of its pre- ferred stock. Of the 1,259 common stock owners on May 31st, 1,149 were employees or customers and the re- maining 110 were former employees or their heirs. There is said to be virtually no trading interest in the common stock. The application further indi- cates that no brokerage firm has ever made a market for the Merit Clothing common stock, or is likely to do so in view of the nature of the company's business, its position in the clothing manufacturing industry, and its poor financial history. -

Prof. Dr. İpek Sevda SÖĞÜT** Antoninus dicit Eudaemoni: "Ego orbis terrarum dominus sum, lex autem maris, lege Rhodia de re nautica res iudicetur, quatenus nulla lex ex nostris ei contraria est. Idem etiam divus Augustus iudicavit. (D. XIV. 2.9) ABSTRACT This article is an overview of the concept of the general average rules that the Romans adopted from the Rhodesian Law and took place in the codification of Iustinianus. General average is one of the most ancient vestiges of maritime law and practice. Although the decline of Ancient Greece and the rise of the Roman Empire altered the influence of Rhodes maritime law; Rhodes retained its existence as a uniform code, since it was peaceful and profitable for Mediterranean trade. The Mediterranean Sea was, for more than one thousand years, only ruled by the Rhodian law, although augmented with some additions by the Romans. As a matter of fact, the lex Rhodia de iactu may be one of the most controversial issues of Roman private law, since the texts tend to be more historical than juristic. This is due to the structure and * This paper was presented at the 70th session of the Société Internationale Fernand de Visscher pour l'Histoire des Droits de l'Antiquité (SIHDA), on September 2016, in Paris/ France. ** Head of Roman Law Department at Kadir Has University, Faculty of Law in Istanbul/ Turkey.

DIGEST OF THE ACTS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF VIRGINIA AT THE 2011 SESSION which commenced at the Capitol in the City of Richmond on January 12, 2011, and adjourned sine die February 27, 2011. Published for THE VIRGINIA CODE COMMISSION by THE DIVISION OF LEGISLATIVE SERVICES Commonwealth of Virginia Virginia Code Commission General Assembly Building Richmond, Virginia 23219 2011 MEMBERS OF THE VIRGINIA CODE COMMISSION John S. Edwards, Chairman Bill Janis, Vice-Chairman James M. LeMunyon Ryan T. McDougle Robert L. Calhoun Thomas M. Moncure, Jr. Patricia West Charles S. Sharp Wesley G. Russell, Jr. Frank S. Ferguson E. M. Miller, Jr. PREFACE ________________________________________ For several decades the Division of Legislative Services annually has prepared for the Vir- ginia Code Commission a Digest of the Acts. The Digest gives an overview of the legislation adopted during the Regular and Reconvened Sessions of the General Assembly of Virginia, prior to publication of the Acts of Assembly. The Internet, on-line access to the General Assembly's Legislative Information System, and more rapid dissemination of published and on-line Code updates today have greatly increased timely access to this information. However, we find that there is still a need for a document pro- viding quick access to information about pending changes in specific sections of the Code of Vir- ginia. Beginning in 2009, a modified version of the Digest was instituted in the current format. Part A of the Digest is an index of all Code sections amended, added, or repealed by the 2011 General Assembly. The index is arranged in numerical order by Code Title and section. -

Bibliography 31 - 1 - Marine Insurance and Reinsurance - An Introduction The only major area of insurance in the UK without substantial actuarial involvement is that referred to as MAT: Marine, Aviation and Transport. Incidentally this state of affairs seems to apply to most overseas countries also. The Institute library is practically devoid of literature on the subject although the Chartered Institute of Insurance does have a fair amount of related information. This paper provides a basic introduction to Marine Insurance and Reinsurance, emphasising aspects of particular interest to Actuaries. Although Marine insurance is international, the paper concentrates upon business written in the UK and so many similarities exist with London Market Non-Marine. Much detail that is common· to both has therefore been left out entirely or dealt with briefly. Aviation has been omitted to preserve some brevity. The paper does not describe all the business written by Marine underwriters as this includes Incidental Non-Marine. 1· Introduction Marine business is one of the oldest areas of insurance. -
