Luise Kraushaar
Life
A bizarre aspect of her career at this time was that she worked in a room that the party had rented for her in a large residential apartment in Berlin's respectable but otherwise unremarkable Friedenau quarter. The apartment was home to two sisters, the elder of whom, Rosa Dukas, handled the rental of the room and the younger of whom, Helen Dukas, was employed as a secretary by one of Berlin's most famous residents, Albert Einstein. The sisters went out to work during the day, so that for most of the time she was working

Work in the BB-Apparat also brought her into contact with Wilhelm Bahnik, another Communist activist who would oppose the Nazi government and in the end was killed in 1938 while participating in the Spanish Civil War. Kraushaar undertook secretarial work for Bahnik until she emigrated in early 1934, at which point her secretarial duties in Berlin were taken over by Erna Eifler who would be shot at Ravensbrück in 1944.

In March 1934 Luise Kraushaar escaped to Prague, moving on shortly afterwards to Moscow where she was employed in the Comintern News Service. For eighteen months from June 1934 she was working in the cipher department of the OMS, still at this point under the directorship of Abramov. In December 1935 Luise Kraushaar was sent to Paris.

war in September 1939 was followed, between Germany and France, by several months of political paralysis and uncertainty in France, but in May 1940 the German invasion of France moved matters on. A political response in both Britain and France involved identifying large numbers of politically and race-defined refugees from Nazi Germany as enemy aliens and arresting them. Kraushaar was arrested in May 1940 and detained by the French authorities at the Gurs internment camp in the south of the country. Fellow internees included Irene Wosikowski and Thea Saefkow, exiled German communists

The three were able to team up together at the internment camp where, as Kraushaar subsequently recalled, Irene Wosikowski, a committed sportswoman, organised other internees to become more physically active whether they liked it or not. Their stay in the camp was brief, however, as by the end of June 1940 had escaped to Toulouse. They joined a unit in the French Resistance. Working with German resistance

Ross's son, William Ross II, was born in Greene County in 1790. Scottish immigrant Alexander McAmish settled on what is now the Maden Hall Farm in the late-18th century, and he apparently gave it the name "Maden Hall." Around 1825, William Ross II purchased a 1.25-acre (0.51 ha) parcel of land from McAmish, and built the Maden Hall farmhouse shortly thereafter. The Maden Hall property was adjacent to land owned by

Gass, one of the Overmountain Men who fought Kings Mountain in 1780, was a delegate to Tennessee constitutional convention in 1796, and established a school and church just west of the modern Maden Hall Farm (Gass Memorial Road connects the two areas). Ross married Gass's daughter, Margaret, in 1813, and in 1835 Gass deeded to Ross a large portion of the property adjacent to Maden Hall. Ross primarily grew wheat, corn, flax, and oats, and raised livestock. By the time of the U.S. Civil War, Ross's Maden Hall holdings consisted

Ross recalled playing in the cantilever barn with a young slave named "Little Jim."

Georgiana designed the house and each detail such as the Count Rumford fireplace. The three thousand bricks necessary to build it were sent down the Bay from Williamstown to Arthurs Seat on the Jemima, a small sailing boat. The house

McCrae Homestead
Provenance and restoration
George Gordon McCrae, who was named after his grandfather and was thus Georgiana's great grandson. Following his death his son, Andrew, donated it to the National Trust of Victoria in 1970. By then, the exterior surroundings of the house were greatly changed by time and the original vast land run purchased by Andrew McCrae had shrunk to a mere few blocks. The interior of the house was dilapidated. But amazingly, there the homestead still sat, now the oldest wooden structure to survive the ravages of time in Victoria. It still waited, hopefully facing the Bay, but with its view mostly

When the homestead was restored by the National Trust, the shingles were revealed under the newer cladding roof, which had protected the integrity of the original messmate shingles that had remained in position since 1844. Connection to Heronswood All early buildings in the area incorporated local materials. Heronswood, a grand home which stands above Anthonys Nose, is today open to the public. The main building was built in 1874, of a rare green

Andrew arrived from England in 1839, and Georgiana also emigrated to Australia following her husband in 1841 with their four young sons. As did Georgiana, her eldest son, George Gordon McCrae (1833–1927) recorded many of his experiences at Arthur's Seat both in diary form and as sketches and paintings. They were one of the first families to settle on the Mornington Peninsula and they built their new home near the future location of McCrae Lighthouse, overlooking

In 1934, one of Georgiana's grandsons, the poet Hugh McCrae, published her journals, under the title "Georgiana's Journal." The journal chronicled her pre– departure from England in 1838 on the Argyle in 1840 to the year 1865, including the years at Arthur's Seat from 1844 to 1851. Letters included in the diary that she received from Arthur's Seat from her children, George Gordon, Willie, Sandy, and Perry who were sent on ahead of their parents from Melbourne, with their tutor John

They also befriended the Bunurong, the indigenous people of the Port Phillip area who taught them their language and songs. The four boys learned how to fish with wooden spears. In 1847, George wrote a detailed description of a Corroboree. John McClure was born on the Isle of Skye and had received an education in the classics and therefore the McCrae's sons received a fine education in conjunction with living a pioneer

The biggest room has been furnished with a table and chairs, but no pictures - long lines of actual landscape appearing in interstices between the planks, instead! In addition to the house proper, we have recently erected a suite of wattle and daub rooms, which only need plastering" The interior rooms of the homestead that were completed soon after this reflect Georgiana's artistry and good taste

He became a specialist in sports medicine at the Sapienza University of Rome in 1981. He was co-author of more than 20 papers in journals of sports physiology.

Eventually he settled on his lifelong interest in the development of training programmes for professional cyclists. One of Ferrari's earliest successes was coaching Francesco Moser to achieve the hour record in 1984, crushing Eddy Merckx's mark by more than a mile. Initially Ferrari worked with Professor Francesco Conconi at the University of Ferrara, who developed testing techniques for human performance, using methods such as monitoring the heart rate during exercise and recovery.

Ferrari compared erythropoietin to orange juice. "EPO is not dangerous, it's the abuse that is. It's also dangerous to drink 10 liters of orange juice". This statement cost him his job as team physician. But his reputation was made, and his name thereafter was associated with use of EPO in particular. In 1995, Ferrari started his own private medical practice.
