France travel

Friends in the United States, especially Marga Stern s brother Rudolf Stern (Fritz Haber s friend and doctor) and Albert Einstein, mounted a campaign to save the Haber family and obtained exit visas for them. At the end of 1940, the family escaped from France, traveling first to Portugal and then to the Caribbean. The British interned them there for several months until Einstein again intervened. In June of 1941, Hermann, Marga, and their three daughters arrived in Hoboken, New Jersey.

Throughout history civilization has treasured the rarity and beauty of fancy colored diamonds. The stunning diamond from India known as the Hope Diamond, once a part of many royal inventories, is now the premier attraction of the Smithsonian Institution (see color Fig. 4.3.1). While the size of the diamond at 45.52 carats has certainly contributed to the public s interest in the gem, the intense blue-violet color of the stone is generally considered to be its most captivating feature. First described in the mid 1600s by the French merchant traveller Jean Baptiste Tavernier as un beau violet (a beautiful violet), the gem also acquired the title Blue Diamond of the Crown or the Royal French Blue when in possession of King Louis XIV of France. The blue color is attributed to trace amounts of boron in the carbon matrix of the stone. Substitution of carbon atoms by nitrogen leads to yellow diamonds, such as the famous canary yellow 128.51-carat Tiffany diamond. 

Mr. Diehn knew East Asia he took over that part of the world. Mr. Ruperti treated the overseas business he had South and Central America and the British Empire Dr. Gattineau took care of the Scandinavian countries and I concerned myself with the United States and France because I had traveled much in the United States until 1932.. . . Goebbels lost interest in us. He called us a clique of capitalists that only criticized. 

It was growing as an exotic exhibit in the government glass houses in Amsterdam in Holland. Dutch workers took it from there in 1710 and circled Africa with it, around the Cape of Good Hope, and it was soon growing in Surinam in the Western Hemisphere. Meanwhile it had traveled to the botanical garden hot houses in Paris, and from there it was also taken to French colonial sites in the West—French Guiana and Martinique. Direct introductions were likewise made from France to the Caribbean islands in 1721 and 1741. Coffee was found by these Dutch and French adventurers to be well adapted to the climates and soils of the western tropics. 

The French physician, Jacques Joseph Moreau, remains the most-cited connection between cannabis and the art community. Moreau first used hashish while traveling through the Middle East in the 1830s. He assumed that cannabis-induced sensations might model the hallucinations and delusions common in psychotic individuals. He had hoped that this research might help the treatment of the mentally ill. The outspoken hedonist and popular novelist, Theophile Gautier assisted Moreau in this research. He not only participated himself, but he also recruited other members of Frances artistic community. This group of hedonists and experimenters met monthly in an old mansion in Paris which was known at the time as the Club Des Hachichins (Hashish Club). For historical reviews on cannabis, see Abel and Mechoulam. ... 

The fluids that have evolved as a result of the bentonite-groundwater interactions will contact the canister on their travel towards the spent fuel matrix. Most of the proposed canister materials in different countries have in common the presence of Fe in the system, either as cast iron (Sweden, Finland) or as stainless steel (France, Spain). While the bentonite-groundwater processes have... 

The advances in disease control made in Europe and the associated increases in crop yields prompted further research in the US. Whilst the ensuing collaborative efforts of the French and American pathologists undoubtedly impacted upon the development of, in particular, copper and sulfur fungicides, such opportunities for travel between continents are never missed by Nature and it is likely that the appearance in France at that time of Guignardia bidwellii, another pathogen of vines native to the New World, was no coincidence. 

Most other developed countries of the world have laws and procedures which direct drug development. Some are not as stringent as those of the United States. This is why you may have seen newspaper accounts of celebrities like Rock Hudson traveling to France for AIDS treatment. There is a current tendency for some medications to be more easily adopted in the United States if they have a history of use in other countries as, for example, with RU-486 (of course, controversy didn t help its case). 

At age 12, Robert was sent (with his brother and an academic tutor) on a European tour that was to have a strong formative influence.

At age 13, he also experi-led to intense religious conversion and convictions that he maintained throughout life in the words of a biographer,... 

He liked to travel, and he undertook numerous lecture tours, which led him to France, Japan, and the United Kingdom, and he talked at length about the experiences he had had and the customs he had observed. In Holland, he visited the place that his ancestors had come from in the eighteenth century.
