The pROGRAM 8 The Possibilities 16 20 The PLACE Professor Martin Dickinson leads students on a walk to "old" Green Hall, the former home of the law school. The trek is an annual tradition for members of the graduating class. On the cover: Professor Virginia Harper Ho and graduate Kejun Zhu, L'12, celebrate after the law school hooding ceremony. 1 The People You're coming to law school to learn, right? so learn from the best. Our faculty members are scholars and lawyers recognized nationally and abroad as experts in their fields. A third have written the casebooks and treatises used in their classrooms and at law schools across the country. They are practitioners with decades of experience. At KU Law, these respected legal minds will challenge and engage you. They'll also offer advice and guidance when you need it. Law faculty offices surround and open into the heart of Green Hall, the Wheat Law Library. So you're never more than a few steps away from your teachers and mentors, and their doors are always open to students. Melanie Wilson brings her extensive litigation experience, including time as a United States attorney, to her teaching and scholarship. She authors a criminal law casebook, and news media consult her frequently for her expertise in that area. "Teaching law is a privilege I revere. My rigorous and interactive teaching style is designed to encourage intellectual curiosity, promote the open and professional exchange of diverse ideas, and spur reasoned analysis and personal and professional growth." Raj Bhala has earned international acclaim for his scholarship on international finance and Islamic law and is often quoted in the national media. He is the author of "Modern GATT Law" and "International Trade Law," both widely adopted at law schools across the U.S. 2 "World class: Those two words summarize the level of excellence to which I aim for my students. I am passionate about training them to be global leaders in international and comparative law, especially international business law. The results Raj Bhala show; our graduates go on to first-rate Rice Distinguished Professor positions around the world." q Melanie Wilson Professor of Law Two KU Law faculty members served as U.S. Supreme Court clerks. Martin Dickinson Distinguished Professor of Law A nationally known authority on tax law, Martin Dickinson authors a casebook on estate and gift taxation. Members of the Kansas Legislature often call upon Dickinson to share his expertise on tax law and policy. He is also universally beloved by current and former students for his dedication to teaching and advising. q One-third of full-time faculty members have authored casebooks used at law schools across the U.S. "Contrary to popular belief, tax law is among the most dynamic of law fields. There is constant change. In class we discuss political issues that bear on taxation, and we closely follow frequent proposals for tax reform. We also address broader issues related to taxation, such as the national debt problem. This is the foundation for our major effort: using the problem method to determine the practical effect of the tax law on typical citizens." 3 Faculty Raj Bhala Associate Dean, International and Comparative Law; Rice Distinguished Professor | J.D., Harvard International Trade Law, Islamic Law, Public International Law Michael J.

At the University of Kansas School of Law, you'll discover the tools you need to become an outstanding member of the legal profession, well-educated in the law and committed to professional achievement and public service. You will start with a powerful foundation in the general principles of law and its practice in a changing legal environment. Then we help you tailor your education to fit your interests -- in international law, trial advocacy, environmental law, tribal law or a dozen other areas. Develop your expertise in the classroom and in the field -- through theory and practice. In class, you will be involved in a dialogue built upon your examination of cases and statutes. You will perfect legal analysis and writing, and develop professional skills. Then you can apply your know-how to real cases in any of KU Law's 13 clinical and externship programs. But your first year comes first. What can you expect? q Three centers of excellence at KU Law focus on advocacy, international trade and agriculture, and tribal law. 8 The first year: an intimate setting All first-year students take Lawyering, a course that focuses on the skills and values of the legal profession. Faculty members with extensive practice experience meet with students in a traditional classroom setting and in small groups. By the end of your first year, you will have prepared a brief and argued a summary judgment motion. You will also take one of your other required first-year courses in a small section of about 20 students. The benefits? uPersonal interaction with professors who provide q highly individualized feedback. informal learning atmosphere that encourages opportunity to bond with your classmates, in-depth discussion and critical analysis. building personal and professional relationships that will last a lifetime. uAn First-year small sections often become tight-knit social and study groups. uThe First-year required courses include: uCivil Procedure Law uLawyering uProperty uTorts Skills I and II uContracts uCriminal I uIntroduction to Constitutional Law 9 q The Summer Start Advantage First-year students may choose to begin their studies either in the summer or the fall. Summer starters begin law school in late May and enjoy the following benefits: Small class sizes Summer start classes are significantly smaller than typical first-year law classes. Start with a lighter load You'll work hard in summer school, but you'll only be taking two classes at a time. Flexible start Summer starters get an 8-credit head start on completing the 90 credits required to graduate, creating the opportunity to take fewer credits per semester and still graduate on time. Accelerated Program Summer starters who choose the Accelerated Program can complete their J.D. in a little over two years by attending school during summer and winter sessions. About one-third of each year's entering class begins law school in the summer. q Summer starters who choose the Accelerated Program spend less money on school and living expenses. 10 Rise and specialize: upper-level courses and concentrations Once you've conquered your firstyear requirements, you'll have access to more than 100 upper-level courses in a variety of practice areas, from agricultural law to sports law. Many are seminars, simulation courses, directed research or clinics. Among the intriguing offerings are Law and Bioethics, Islamic Law, Quantitative Forensics, Introduction to Copyright in Literary and Artistic Works, Race and American Law, Indian Gaming, the Art of Advocacy, and Legal Aspects of the Music Industry. These courses come to life in a smaller setting. Two-thirds of upper-level classes at KU Law have 25 or fewer students. With a consistently low student-to-faculty ratio, you'll get individual attention from leading scholars and practitioners who have been where you're going. uBusiness With emphasis Curriculum guides are available in the following areas of interest: and Commercial Law Law Law and Natural Certificate programs KU Law students get a first-rate comprehensive legal education. But if you find a niche, we can help you develop your specialty.

Students take and defend depositions, write and argue mock appellate briefs, represent federal inmates in post-conviction appeals and more -- all under the direction of clinical faculty, practicing attorneys and judges. As a KU Law graduate, you will be equipped with the theoretical providing invaluable guidance and feedback as students practice their skills with their peers. Moot court All KU Law students get a taste of moot court during their Lawyering class. Students write a summary judgment brief and engage in an oral argument before a "judge" (a law professor). For those interested in practicing and advancing their appellate advocacy skills, KU offers a Second-Year In-House Moot Court Competition in which teams write an appellate brief and give a mock argument before the "U.S. Supreme Court." The top eight teams in this tournament form KU's Moot Court Council and represent the law school in various national and international moot court competitions. KU Law teams consistently achieve success at the national and international levels, frequently winning top honors in brief writing and oral advocacy. Recent moot court successes First place and best petitioner brief: International Moot Court Competition in Information Technology and Privacy Law (Chicago) Regional champions, top 8 nationally: National Moot Court Competition (New York) Best brief: Herbert Wechsler National Criminal Law Moot Court Competition (Buffalo, NY) Mardi Gras Sports Law Competition (New Orleans) Semifinalists, two top-five oral advocates: European Law Students' Association Moot Court Competition (Washington, DC) and professional skills to succeed immediately as a new attorney. Skills courses The law school's robust menu of professional skills courses provides students training in areas such as advanced litigation, estate planning, federal tax procedure, copyright law and trial advocacy. Beyond this more traditional classroom work, KU Law also offers two intensive simulation courses that allow students to gain hands-on experience in trial advocacy. Veteran attorneys teach the Deposition Skills and Expert Witness workshops, 13 q Michael Kelly, L'11 Project for Innocence & Post-Conviction Remedies "With the backlog of cases that are waiting for defense attorneys, it was really powerful for me to be able to help someone and at the same time gain valuable, practical experience as a young lawyer." Every KU Law student can participate in at least one clinic during law school. Clinics & Externships KU Law offers 13 clinics in which students translate classroom theory into real-world practice. We're talking real clients, real cases and real opportunities to make a difference for individuals and communities. Not only will you be testing your knowledge and gaining confidence, but you'll also be racking up the kind of experience that convinces employers you're ready to hit the ground running. uCriminal uElder Prosecution Clinic Clinic Law Clinic uLegislative uMedia Clinic Partnership Clinic Law Externship Law Clinic for Innocence & Post-Conviction uExternship uMedical-Legal uProject uImmigration/Asylum uJudicial Clerkship Clinic Clinic Supreme Court Research Clinic Remedies uPublic uTribal uLegal Aid uKansas Policy Clinic Judicial Support Clinic 14 Jean Menager, L'14 Judicial Clerkship Clinic Hannah Sandal, L'11 Medical-Legal Partnership Clinic "The Judicial Clerkship Clinic was a fantastic experience because I was able to apply my lawyering skills in a real and meaningful setting, and it was very rewarding to see my work get officially filed and submitted to the parties. I also had many opportunities to observe litigation, an area that interests me." "My experience in the Medical-Legal Partnership Clinic awakened my interest in legal and social justice. I certainly developed essential lawyering skills, but I also learned how to use those skills to make the world a better place." q Clinical students perform hundreds of hours of pro bono legal work for clients each year.

Notre Dame University and Madison Center Create Research Partnership
SOUTH BEND, Ind., Aug. 11 /PRNewswire/ — Daniel Lapsley, Ph.D., Chairman of the Department of Psychology for Notre Dame University, gives a significant amount of credit to Madison Center, Indiana's largest community mental health agency, for Notre Dame's coup in recruiting two world-class researchers.
Now Notre Dame and Madison Center have created a partnership to collaborate on research that is designed to improve treatment and therapies for mental health patients.
Lee Anna Clark, Ph.D., formerly a professor and collegiate fellow in the Department of Psychology at University of Iowa, and David Watson, Ph.D., also a former psychology professor at UI, and currently editor of the prestigious Journal of Abnormal Psychology, are renown researchers and have individually and jointly published hundreds of articles and books on their areas of research including: personality and personality disorder, temperament, mood, emotion, depression, anxiety and other psychological conditions. Perhaps not surprisingly, they are two of the most cited research psychologists in the world
"We were impressed by the resources, campus, and diversity of patient services offered at the Madison Center, as well as by the faculty and the leadership–from the Psychology Department all the way up through Central Administration–at Notre Dame," said Clark.
Clark brings with her a $2 million federal grant from the National Institute of Mental Health. The grant will be applied to her research developing a new approach to assessing personality disorder. She and Watson will be collaborating with Madison clinical staff and conducting much of their research in the Hill Street Building on Madison's campus, which will be renamed the Clinical Science Building.
"We've always had a good relationship with Madison," said Lapsley, "but this expands and evolves our partnership in an exciting direction that can be productive for our research as well as beneficial for physician practitioners and patients at Madison.
"Anything that aligns clinical practice with clinical research will improve the quality of the clinical treatment patients receive. Madison Center will have the opportunity to participate in research and reap the benefits that come from having healthcare providers at the cutting edge of new research, therapies, approaches and treatments."
The Notre Dame/Madison research will focus primarily on surveys, interviews and medical reviews and will be essentially non-invasive, although there may be blood draws required. Only patients who consent will participate, and there will be no compromise to any patient's current treatment. Post-graduate students and other staff will work out of the new Clinical Science Building, expected to officially open next month, further expanding the footprint of Psychology for Notre Dame.
"Patients often get the finest care available when their physicians and caregivers are associated with active research centers," said Lapsley. "We fully expect that to be the case as a result of this new collaboration and partnership."

The U.S. Supreme Court recently issued its first decision reviewing the scope of removal jurisdiction under the federal Class Action Fairness Act (CAFA). In Knowles v. Standard Fire Insurance Co., No. 11-1450 (U.S.), the Supreme Court unanimously held that a putative class representative cannot avoid federal jurisdiction by stipulating that the class will not seek damages in excess of the CAFA $5 million jurisdictional minimum. Specifically, the Court ruled that a putative class representative cannot bind the putative class before a class is certified. In doing so, the Court eliminated plaintiffs' use of stipulations aimed at manipulating CAFA's jurisdictional provisions in an attempt to confine cases to "plaintiff friendly" state courts.
Before Congress enacted CAFA, a putative class action could only be filed in or removed to federal court if the case presented a federal question or satisfied principles of traditional diversity jurisdiction. Traditional diversity jurisdiction requires, among other things, that at least one named plaintiff have an amount in controversy in excess of $75,000. Importantly, the claims of named plaintiffs and putative class members pre-CAFA could not be aggregated to satisfy the amount in controversy threshold. Because class actions involving millions of dollars and issues of national concern could be restricted to state courts, Congress enacted CAFA to expand the ability of federal courts to preside over class actions.

Product Description
For over a century countless readers have found in Andrew Murray a trustworthy guide to the deeper Christian life. As a pastor, evangelist, educator, and writer driven by concern for the spiritual guidance of new converts--and for revival in long-time believers--Murray penned some of the most enduring devotional classics of Christian literature. Though he ministered in a deeply-divided nation, his vision seemed blind to race, class, or political persuasion. And from a remote corner of South Africa, his preaching, teaching, and writing would eventually fuel spiritual awakening with a worldwide impact.
This edition pairs Humility and Absolute Surrender in one volume. Together these classics reflect Murray's longing for a closer walk with Christ, and call us to a life of holiness and virtue, empowered not by our own strength but by the indwelling Holy Spirit.

I'm quite pleased that they made two great books into one and it's a better gift.

Most coaches 15 to 25 years old, says RTI activist
Rickety coaches with cockroaches and rats crawling inside them are giving a harrowing time to train commuters in Kerala.
Thursday's accident near Alappuzha railway station in which the wheel and platform truck of the Ernakulam-Kayamkulam passenger train got detached from the passenger body of a coach speaks volumes about the Railway's approach towards the upkeep of trains and safety of passengers.
"Most of the coaches being used in the Thiruvananthapuram Division are 15 to 25 years old. They have a maximum life span of 25 years if they are well maintained. Incidents like the one at Alappuzha prove that the agency is paying scant regard to passenger safety," said D.B. Binu, RTI activist and general secretary of the Human Rights' Defence Forum. Mr. Binu obtained information about the average age of coaches after he filed a query under the Right to Information Act.
A regular train passenger in the Ernakulam-Alappuzha route, Mr. Binu said the functioning of mechanical and electrical parts of many passenger trains was dismal. "Lights and fans do not work and flush tanks are full of rats. Even worse, the window panes of toilets in many coaches are broken and passengers can use them only when the train is moving."
The lackadaisical attitude of Southern Railway towards safety, the alleged handing over of old coaches to the Thiruvananthapuram Division and their inadequate upkeep are proving costly to train commuters in the State.
On Monday, a formal inquiry into the accident will be conducted at the office of the Assistant Divisional Mechanical Engineer in Ernakulam. The train's crew, the mechanical engineers concerned and others will testify at the inquiry. However, even officials within the agency doubt that the probe would name the real cause of the incident, in which eight passengers barely escaped with their lives.

Isle of Man Stamps & Coins News 138
The Autumn 2012 magazine of Isle of Man Stamps & Coins features the Centenary of Captain Scott's Antarctic South Pole Expedition with a 'Terra Nova' cover image by Herbert Ponting and stamp issue text by Sir Ranulph Fiennes. A new London 2012 Olympic Games gold medal winners sheet is also featured, including an article about Manx Olympic cyclist Peter Kennaugh and his gold postbox - an honour he earned as part of the winning Team GB in the Men's Team Pursuit event in the velodrome. Other main subjects include the Centenary of the Royal Flying Corps (with incredible early aircraft illustrations) and the Christmas Scenes paintings of Manx artist Michael Starkey. Other subjects covered by special collectables are the Thames Pageant, Olympic Torch and Opening and Closing Ceremonies, the Titanic and Mark Cavendish. The new Year Collections for 2012 are also showcased and a full list of currently available stamps and IOM Treasury coins is also included or viewable at iomstamps.com.
NEWS Issue Number 138 Autumn 2012 In this issue of Manx Stamp & Coin News... Christmas Scenes � Scott Antarctic Miniature Sheet � The Centenary of the Royal Flying Corps � Mark Cavendish Collectables � Year Collections 2012 � London 2012 Olympics by Paul Smith Collectables � Diamond Jubilee Special Royal Stamp & Coin Commemoratives IOM Treasury Coins and all the latest news... WELCOME Dot's Message Chaghteraght Dot of winning his medal and crowds of wellwishers were at the airport to greet him, including the President of Tynwald, Mrs Clare Christian, who said "Peter's victory was met with an explosion of pride and delight" - and how right she was. Peter Kennaugh and his team's winners sheet is a limited edition of 2012 and they are selling at `world record pace' at �10 each. Before the Olympic flame was lit the Queen's Diamond Jubilee had `set the bar so high' that it was generally felt the London 2012 Olympics would struggle to match the `feel good factor' - as each Jubilee event created a wonderful atmosphere of British pride. We produced a beautiful folder to mark the events; the Thames Pageant, the Jubilee Holiday, fireworks and final celebrityrich concert. The folder was described as `lavish' and, judging by the lovely letters we have had from our customers, our description was about right. The folder makes a super gift at Christmas (code QF44, �30) and recalls that special time in June when we all had a bit more time for everything good. Thank you so much for supporting Isle of Man Stamps and Coins in 2012 and behalf of us all may I wish you and your families a happy and peaceful Christmas and a healthy New Year. he London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic T Games were, without doubt, amazing experiences for everyone involved and wasn't it so nice that, from the moment the Games began to take shape, people everywhere joined together in an atmosphere of comradeship and happiness � we got along, we talked to complete strangers, we volunteered, we watched Taekwondo on the TV, slightly mystified, although it didn't matter whether we understood or not � it was just the best time ever! In the Isle of Man our world champion cyclist, Mark Cavendish, had the pressure of being favourite for the first GB gold medal in the men's cycling road race � he did not succeed and we were hugely disappointed for him. However, all was not lost as Peter Kennaugh - another home bred top cyclist and member of Team Sky - was in the British Men's team pursuit squad at the Olympic Velodrome. They won the gold medal in world record time beating the Australian team in the final and the Isle of Man went `ballistic' with excitement and pride. `Good luck' banners were speedily replaced with `well done Peter Kennaugh � we are so proud of you' banners. Meanwhile, the post box in the village of Onchan, where Peter grew up, was painted gold and, at the Isle of Man Post Office (where Peter's father is a postman), the winners stamp sheet was getting its final touches to go to print. Peter returned home to the Island within 24 hours Dot Tilbury Diamond Jubilee Commemorative Sheets & Special Folder We present three landmark stamp sheetlets and a very special folder that together form a lasting postal tribute to the memorable events of the Jubilee long-weekend. Each of the special commemorative sheets captures the atmosphere of the day and is filled with contemporary images of each of the glorious events. From the rainy river Pageant to the service at St Paul's with the unforgettable celebrity-rich concert on The Mall in between, the sheet folder brings it all alive and is packed with many exclusive images of days that will live long in the nation's collective memory. The sheets are available separately or as part of our lavish 20 page folder.

Peter's Gold Post Box In celebration of Peter Kennaugh's gold medal win the post box at Onchan Post Office, near to the family home, was transformed in time for his return to the Island to recognise his outstanding achievement. Pictured are father and son � both named Peter Kennaugh. We are all very proud of both Peters as PK senior is one of IOM Post Office's longest-serving postmen and has represented GB internationally in cycling too. A Happy Return A huge crowd greeted Peter at the Isle of Man Airport. He joined in as the crowd sang an impromptu rendition of the Island's national anthem and then gave an emotional speech in which he thanked everyone for the reception. He said: `This means everything to me, to have so many people welcoming me home shows what a close knit community we have in the Isle of Man.' He then held his gold medal aloft and said `this is for you guys' - prompting another big cheer from the crowd that included fans of all ages. PAGE 3 STAMP & COIN NEWS � AUTUMN 2012 NEW RELEASE � Issue Date � 20.09.12 The Isle of Man Post Office is pleased to present a set of 6 stamps commemorating the 100th Anniversary of the formation of the Royal Flying Corps. The Royal Flying Corps was formed by Royal Warrant on 13 April 1912. It comprised a Military Wing, a Naval Wing, the Central Flying School at Upavon and the Royal Aircraft Factory at Farnborough. By the time it had assumed control of the Air Battalion of the Royal Engineers a month later it could record a miscellaneous collection of around 20 different types - many of dubious quality. Just over two years later, led by Brigadier General Sir David Henderson, the RFC went to war. Four Squadrons flew to France and the RFC had 63 aircraft supported by 900 men. By the Battle of Loos in September 1915 the RFC strength had increased to 12 Squadrons with 161 aircraft and by the time of the first major air actions at the first Battle of the Somme in July 1916, there were 27 Squadrons with over 420 aircraft on roll plus a further 216 in depots and training. The RFC first went into action on 19 August 1914 when two aeroplanes took off to seek the advancing German forces. Reconnaissance and artillery spotting was to be the principal task of the Corps over the duration of the War. The Royal Aircraft Factory designed BE.2 series of aircraft and was the most widely used for this kind of mission later followed by the RE.8 and AW.8 types. Scout aircraft gradually evolved. At first there were no `fighter' squadrons as such with types mounting a single non-synchronised machine gun being issued in small numbers to squadrons tasked with other duties. Early scout types such as the Nieuport carried a gun on the top wing so when fired the bullets passed over the arc of the propeller whilst other `pusher' types were designed with the engine behind the pilot and gunner such as the Gunbus, the FE.2 or the single seat DH.2. TECHNICAL DETAILS Artwork ...................................................... Arvo Vercamer Design................................................................ EJC Design Printer .......................................................................... Cartor Text ................................................................ Roger Tisdale Stamp Size ....................................28.45 mm x 42.58 mm Colours ............................................ 4 Plus Metallic Gold With the adoption of the synchronised machine gun the number of scout types grew and the first dedicated squadrons were formed to defend the RFC's reconnaissance aircraft and to prevent enemy aircraft carrying out their duties. Amongst these early fighter squadrons was No.54 flying the Sopwith Pup, No.56 using the SE.5 and the famous Sopwith Camel first issued to No.70 Squadron. By 1918, 13 squadrons of the RFC were flying this diminutive type with its twin machine guns. At first RFC aircraft were unmarked but later Union Jack flags were painted on the wings to distinguish them from the `Hun'. By 1915 most aircraft had the familiar red, white and blue cockades applied. As the war progressed, plain fabric covered aircraft had their upper surfaces painted in a dark brown protective colour defined as PC.10. Major General Hugh Trenchard, as Commander of the RFC in France for much of the war, was the driving force behind the expansion of the RFC so that by the final days of the RFC over 1200 aircraft were deployed on the Western Front. At home, the RFC Home Establishment was responsible for training air and ground crews and preparing squadrons to deploy to France. The RFC provided squadrons for home defence, defending against German Zeppelin and later the Gotha bomber raids. The RFC was also deployed to the Middle East, the Balkans and later to Italy. Eleven members of the RFC were awarded the Victoria Cross and some of these pilots became household names � Albert Ball and James McCudden being just two examples. The motto of the RFC, Per Ardua ad Astra (Through Adversity to the Stars) lives on through the RAF.

We are grateful for the uniquely qualified contribution of Sir Ranulph Fiennes and to the Scott Polar Research Institute for permission to feature the extraordinary photographs of Herbert Ponting. Sir Ranulph Fiennes writes... When Britain first sent `Torpedo' Lieutenant Captain Robert Falcon Scott and his ship Discovery south to Antarctica, the box camera had been invented and was as vital a part of any expedition as a pith helmet or an ice axe. That was in 1901- the twentieth century � yet Antarctica was still unexplored. Nobody even knew if it was a continent or merely a mass of floating ice. In 1910, Scott's Terra Nova expedition was sent to penetrate this vast and hostile region, to devise the best method of travel there, and, with a band of top-rate scientists under his control, to gain knowledge in the cause of science. He chose the best scientists from all over the Commonwealth as well as the best professional photographercum-cinematographer, Herbert Ponting, whose reputation was already firmly established in London after an exciting life in remote lands about which he lectured with magic lantern slides. His images confirm Ponting as one of the truly great photographers of the twentieth century, especially considering the extremely demanding conditions under which he had to work in Antarctica. In the 1970s, I worked as a photographer and cinematographer in Antarctica and even then, with vastly improved cameras, lenses, films, and ancillary gear, I still found even the simplest photographic activity extremely demanding in the ultra-low temperatures. In the 1970s, a character-assonating biography of Scott and a nine-hour equally distorted based on that book attacked the explorer and his achievements. His posthumous record was besmirched and, in 2002, I decided to set the record straight and reassert historical reality in place of the groundless myths successfully propagated by the book and the film. I am delighted that my resulting book Captain Scott is now followed by this stamp issue to remind us all of the stark reality of the conditions faced by Scott and his men, the very first human beings to penetrate and learn about Antarctica. Although Amundsen was the first to reach the Pole, towed there by dog power, Scott was the first to arrive by pure man power. The US scientific station at the South Pole is called the Scott Amundsen South Pole Station in recognition of two great but very different achievements. The greatest of French polar explorers, Dr. Jean Charcot, wrote in Le Matin: "Scott has conquered the pole. The public, ill-informed, will say that he reached his goal only second: but those who know � Amundsen and Shackleton among them � will say that it was Scott who opened the road to the Pole and mapped out the route, shedding a reflecting glow upon his country." He added: "Scott did not turn aside from his scientific programme... It is quite another thing with Amundsen. He is not a scientist. He is bent only on setting up a record. If one wishes to pronounce the one greater than the other, the preference must go to him who surrounds his expedition result with the greatest number of discoveries and scientific observation." One of Amundsen's great Pole team members, Helmer Hanssen, said: "It is no disparagement of Amundsen and the rest of us when I say that Scott's achievement far exceeded ours... Just imagine what it meant for Scott and the others to drag their sleds themselves, with all their equipment to the Pole. We started with fifty-two dogs and came back with eleven, and many of these wore themselves out on the journey. What shall we say of Scott and his comrades, who were their own dogs? Anyone with any experience will take off his hat to Scott's achievement. I do not believe men ever have shown such endurance at any time, nor do I believe there will ever be men to equal it." This stamp issue is a fitting tribute, not only to a story of great heroism and courage, but also to Herbert Ponting, an artist of the highest quality.

Ramsey Christmas Lights Here we have shoppers with the Christmas tree lights at the Courthouse which is now the Ramsey Post Office. The lights give cheer and hope in the cold frosty night with quite often the brass band playing and choirs singing. This painting shows a group at about six o'clock on Christmas Eve. It's about that time that people start to think "Have we got everything?" Glen Auldyn Christmas Post Delivery I wanted to paint a rural picture of a postman delivering mail at Christmas. When I was a postman in Ramsey, I delivered mail in town to all the little streets in South Ramsey which now are long gone. The rural drivers would tell me stories about Christmas Day deliveries and how, quite often, the vans would have to be dug out of the snow. Here we see a Morris 1000 van and the postman in Glen Auldyn on the outskirts of Ramsey just before dark. It was often quite late into the night before some of them returned. Castletown Police Station I always wanted to include this building in a painting. Here we have a small choir with a couple of late shoppers. A policeman keeps a watchful eye to keep the town safe and secure on Christmas Eve. The castle looms large in the background as the lights are on in the station, where a mince pie and a cup of tea are waiting before he ventures out on his rounds. Soon the lights will dim and peace and quiet will reign for Christmas. Sulby Glen Here we have the light fading on Christmas Day in Sulby Glen. The light is on in the cottage and the lady and dog are looking forward to a warm fire and some mince pies with the family, before the frost sets in for the night. This is the atmosphere I like to create, that feeling just before dark in the winter when it seems to glow before night. Sulby Glen is a magical setting just made for a painting. Martin's Sweet Shop Ramsey, Christmas 1960s This painting is set in the 60s when Martin's Sweetshop, situated just across the road from the cinema was a wonderland for all who stepped inside. Rows of sweet jars and decorations hung in every part of the shop giving a riot of colour. It was also a passing place on the way to school. Here the lights are on in the shop as Christmas Eve approaches. The children who are playing are waiting for the big day with the promise of a matinee and a selection box. Lake Lane, Peel Here we are in Peel on Christmas Day. It has stopped snowing and children, excited by the snow, race out to play. In days gone by, after Christmas Dinner, there was a short time before dark when children went to their friends' houses to play and came back to a warm fire and a big tea. Evenings would be spent playing games and listening to the radio. These lanes in Peel were a perfect playground not far from the house and here I have tried to capture that moment.

COINS AND COLLECTABLES Isle of Man Treasury Coins Cooinaghyn Tashtey Vannin Decimal Coin Designs Introduced in 1988 M. J. Southall, MBE, MCGI The 1984 designs for Manx decimal coins lasted until 1987 when a new set was introduced depicting a range of Manx subjects. However, several things happened during the period of 1984 to 1987. The �p was minted for the last time in 1985. After the �1 `town' series, a �1 coin was released in 1987 depicting a Viking on Horseback. A �2 coin in Virenium was introduced in 1986, and reissued 1987, showing the Tower of Refuge on Conister Rock. �2 Coin: Manx Airlines was established as the Island's National Airline in November 1982. The company operated twenty different types of aircraft during its history, including the BAe 146-100 jet aircraft shown on the �2 coin. �5 Coin: A Peel inshore fishing boat is depicted above a lobster and a herring. Peel and Ramsey are now the two main ports where fresh fish are landed. Obverse: All the 1988 coins show the second profile portrait of Her Majesty by Raphael Maklouf. As we have seen from previous articles, the coinage of the Isle of Man reveals many diverse aspects of Manx life, history and culture. This book contains a definitive study of Manx decimal coins since 1971. Adding further interest, the die marks, mintmarks, provenance marks, etc. found on the majority of Manx decimal coins are also included. Another section of the book documents the noncirculating, precious metal and bullion coins. Coins of the Isle of Man, by M. J. Southall, M.B.E 1p Coin: This coin depicts a lathe and cogwheel representing Manx manufacturing machinery signifying that the Island has a small, but excellent, manufacturing sector. 2p Coin: Various ancient Manx crafts are shown on this coin, some dating back many centuries. The centrepiece depicts a jug being made on the potter's wheel. 5p coin: A windsurfer represents the many water sports that take place around the shores of the Isle of Man. 10p Coin: The portcullis symbol represents integrity and security within the world. An outline map of the Isle of Man is shown on the globe. The Island has world status as a leading financial centre of excellence. 20p Coin: The Manx International Car Rally is represented on this coin. 50p Coin: The Isle of Man has been in the forefront of Information Technology so a computer with a triskelion on its screen is symbolised on this 50p coin. �1 Coin: The Isle of Man was first in the British Isles to have an automatic telephone exchange which was located at Sulby. The Island has been at the cutting edge of ultra modern technology in telecommunications systems. This coin shows a Cellnet phone, satellite dish and parabolic receiver. The book also records the first official Manx coins of 1710 and those issued up to the currency reforms of 1839. British coins were then used in the Isle of Man up to decimalisation in 1971. A variety of tokens were circulating on the Island until 1839 and they are also recorded. The history of coins is narrated in other sections of this book. Fascinating aspects, including many Viking hoards and the variety of coins and tokens used in the 17th century, are well documented. This book makes compelling reading and is a most useful reference work for anyone with the slightest interest in the coins of the Isle of Man.

The Chronicles are the earliest written accounts of the Island and document many of the most significant events of the medieval age. Written by monks at Rushen Abbey, they have been in the collections of the British Library for over two hundred years. We mark this landmark exhibition and the Chronicles chequered history with a set of six stamps showcasing the chessmen. The Coronation of HM Queen 1953-2013 - Issue Date 06.02.13 Our six stamps commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth the Second at Westminster Abbey. The ceremony was conducted more than a year after the accession, on 2 June 1953, to honour the traditional period of mourning that followed the death of the preceding sovereign. Her Majesty has seen the world, including our Island, change dramatically during her long reign and is the oldest monarch to have held the British throne. Grand celebrations are sure to be repeated in the year that marks the sovereign's diamond anniversary of her crowning year. The Isle of Man Fire & Rescue Service Miniature Sheet - Issue Date 20.02.13 With a long and honourable history, the Island's Service currently employs 167 fire-fighters, (over fifty full-time based at Douglas Fire Station and Fire HQ in Onchan) and more than one hundred retained fire-fighters based at Douglas, Laxey, Ramsey, Kirk Michael, Peel, Port Erin and Castletown fire stations. There are also four civilian staff who are based at Fire Service Headquarters in Onchan. Our miniature sheet pays tribute to this vital occupation and showcases the range of vehicles and kit required when the heat is on. The Isle of Man Constabulary 150th Anniversary - Issue Date 20.02.13 In September 1863 the Isle of Man Police Forces were amalgamated under the first Head Constable, George Patrick Goldie, Member of the House of Keys and Captain of the Parish of Marown. He was appointed after the Head Constable elect, a Mr Thompson, drank heavily the night before his appointment and drove his pony and trap down Prospect Hill at a furious pace. He was booked for the equivalent to drunk driving and his appointment was never ratified! The Island's police force now numbers approximately 240 staff and is responsible for policing the IOM TT Races in addition to the traditional duties associated with their role. Although the Island is not a part of the United Kingdom, the Constabulary volunteers itself for inspection by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabularies. Our six-stamp set attempts to do justice to the Force's long and eventful history. STAY IN TOUCH WITH US For all the latest news...
