2) Paolo Mantegazza was SexDoc, AnthropologyDoc, PoliticDoc and WriterDoc

Image:Paolo Mantegazza.jpeg

Mantegazza was born at Monza on October 31, 1831. After spending his student-days at the universities of Pisa and Milan, he gained his M.D. degree at Pavia in 1854. After travelling in Europe, India and the Americas, he practised as a doctor in the Argentine Republic and Paraguay. Returning to Italy in 1858 he was appointed surgeon at Milan Hospital, in Milan, and professor of general pathology at Pavia. In 1870 he was nominated professor of anthropology at the Instituto di Studi Superiori, Florence. Here he founded the first Museum of Anthropology and Ethnology in Italy, and later the Italian Anthropological Society. From 1865 to 1876 he was deputy for Monza in the Italian parliament, subsequently being elected to the senate. He became the object of bitter attacks on the ground of the extent to which he carried the practice of vivisection

He was one of the pioneers of Sexual Medicine publishing works like "Fisiologia del piacere“ (Physiology of lust, 1854), „Fisiologia dell’amore“ (Physiology of Love, 1873), „Igiene dell’ amore“ (Hygienics of Love, 1877), „Gli amori degli uomini – Saggio di una etnologia dell’amore“ (Loving of Men - Samples of a Love Ethnology, 1886) und „Fisiologia della donna“ (Physiology of the Woman, 1893)

German pharmacy museum!

Being established as a foundation in 1937 the German Museum of  Pharmacy was opened in Munich in 1938. The exhibits consisted exclusively of donations of the profession: The extensive private collections of the Rath family, Frankfurt (former owners of the Vial & Uhlmann Co.) and of the Heinrici family, Halle, built up the basis which was completed by numerous single donations.

Only a few years later – meanwhile  the museum had closed down as a result of the outbreak of World War II – the building and a part of the collections that had not been transferred into safe store-rooms were hit by fire bombs and totally destroyed. After the end of the war the German Museum of Pharmacy found a temporary domicile for the collections which escaped happily from the destructions of the war in the prince-episcopal residence of  Bamberg. As a matter of fact most of the stocks were saved. In 1958 the official reopening of the museum took place at Heidelberg in the Ottheinrich palace which used to be its location until today.

The purpose of the foundation can be described with the keywords enlargement, preservation and maintenance of the collections in order to depict the history of pharmacy in a lively arranged museum. These statutes have shaped the honorary work of the foundation until today and are guaranteed not least by the constant support of the profession of dispensing chemists and their umbrella organization – the Bundesvereinigung Deutscher Apothekerverbände (ABDA).

4) Carl Friedrich Haeberlein (medical doctor) and his son
Ernst Haeberlein (pharmacist) are PalaeontologyDocs!


Carl Friedrich Haeberlein

The discovery of Archaeopteryx has been a scandal!

Bild:Archaeopteryx lithographica - cast of Humboldt Museum specimen.JPG

In the franconian Altmühl valley a worker of a stone pit finds an old fossil. Secretly he took it out of the stone pit and gave it to Carl Friedrich Haeberlein, medical doctor and hobby palaeontologist, getting some free treatments in exchange.


From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archaeopteryx :

Soon after, the first skeleton, known as the London Specimen (BMNH 37001) was unearthed in 1861 near Langenaltheim, Germany and given to a local physician Karl Häberlein in return for medical services. He then sold it to the British Museum of Natural History in London, where it remains.[10] Missing most of its head and neck, it was described in 1863 by Richard Owen as Archaeopteryx macrura, who assumed it did not belong to the same species as the feather. In a subsequent edition of his Origin of Species (chap. 10, pp.335-336), Charles Darwin acclaimed Owen's discovery as linking lizard-like reptiles with modern birds.


Also the other time when the Berlin Archaeopteryx was found, a Häberlein, the son of Dr. Carl Friedrich Häberlein was involved: The pharmacist Ernst Häberlein! Read the german text citated from http://www.altmuehltal.de/moernsheim/museum/urvogel.htm :

Auch diesmal spielte ein Häberlein, er war der Sohn des 1871 verstorbenen Pappenheimer Arztes Karl Häberlein, für das weitere Schicksal dieses Fundes eine bedeutende Rolle. Der Apotheker Ernst Häberlein verstand es, die Fossilplatten, wiederum Positiv und Negativ, in seinen Besitz zu bringen. Ernst Häberlein nahm selbst die erste Freilegung des Fossils vor, wobei sich herausstellte, daß der neue Fund den ersten an Vollständigkeit und Klarheit weit übertraf. Vor allem war diesmal neben dem prächtig erhaltenen Federkleid auch der Schädel erhalten geblieben
Eine erste Mitteilung über diesen Fund machte Häberlein selbst im Mai 1877 in der naturwissenschaftlichen Zeitschrift "Leopoldina". Dies geschah offenbar in der Absicht, das Fossil zugleich mit seiner umfangreichen Sammlung Solnhofener Versteinerungen zum Verkauf anzubieten. Das ging auch daraus hervor, daß Häberlein seine genaue Anschrift, Weidenbach (Station Triesdorf bei Ansbach, Mittelfranken), angab.

5) Gottfried Benn is a famous German poet
WriterDoc, SpiritualDoc

Gottfried Benn


He was born the son of a Lutheran pastor in Mansfeld, now part of Prignitz. He was educated in Sellin in the Neumark and Frankfurt an der Oder before studying theology at the University of Marburg and military medicine at the Kaiser Wilhelm Academy in Berlin.

Benn started as an expressionist author before World War I when he published a small collection of poems (Morgue, 1912) concerned with the physical decay of the flesh.

His poetry offers an introverted nihilism: an existentialist philosophy which sees artistic expression as the only purposeful action. In his early poems Benn used his medical experience and terminology to portray a morbid conception of humanity as another species of disease-ridden animal.John Collins (Bullock & Woodings, 1984, p.61)

7) Bernhard Kouchner is PoliticDoc and BenefizDoc

Bernard Kouchner (born November 1, 1939 in Avignon) is a French politician, diplomat, and doctor. He is co-founder of Doctors Without Borders (MSF) and Doctors of the World.

Since May 18th, 2007 (!) he is the French minister of Foreign and European Affairs in the Fillon government.

Career

Born to a Jewish father and a Protestant mother, he began his political career as a member of the French Communist Party (PCF), from which he was expelled in 1966. He worked as a physician for the Red Cross in Biafra in 1968 (during the Nigerian Civil War). He founded MSF in 1971, and then, due to a conflict of opinion with MSF chairman Claude Malhuret, the Médecins du Monde (1980).

From 1988, he began his government career in Socialist governments, though he was never a member of the French Socialist Party. Later, he continued his political career in the European Parliament.

He is a long-time advocate of humanitarian intervention. In early 2003, he pronounced himself in favour of removing Saddam Hussein as President of Iraq, arguing that interference against dictatorship should be a global priority, and continued to say that now the focus should be on the actual people themselves, and that they are the only ones who could answer yes or no to war.

On July 15 1999, pursuant to Security Council Resolution 1244, UN Secretary General Kofi Annan nominated Kouchner as the first UN Special Representative and Head of the United Nations Interim Administration in Kosovo [1]. During 18 months, he led UN efforts to create a new civil administration and political system replacing the Serbian ones, and to rebuild the economy shattered by three years of civil war. Thus, municipal councils were elected at local level by the end of 2000 [2]. He was replaced on 21 January 2001 by Danish Social Democrat Hans Hækkerup.

In a February 4, 2003 editorial with Antoine Veil in Le Monde, entitled "Neither War Nor Saddam," Kouchner said that he was opposed to the impending War in Iraq, and, as the title suggests, to the remaining in power of Saddam Hussein, the removal of whom should be accomplished via a concerted United Nations, preferably diplomatic, solution.[1] [2]

In 2005, Kouchner was a candidate for the position of United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), but lost the appointment in favour of former Portuguese Prime Minister, António Guterres, who was nominated by the UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan. One of Kouchner statements on behalf of his candidature can be found on the International Council of Voluntary Agencies site.

In 2006, Kouchner was also a candidate to become Director-General of the World Health Organisation[3]. He lost before the final election round and Chinese candidate Margaret Chan Fung Fu-chun was later elected. Both failures may hint at the distrust on the part of world state officials of an advocate of humanitarian interference.

After the election of Nicolas Sarkozy in 2007, he was appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs, even though Kouchner supported Sarkozy's Socialist rival Ségolène Royal during the campaign. He has since been expelled from the Socialist Party [4].

Kouchner is married to the journalist Christine Ockrent, his second wife.

13) Karl-Heinz Bomberg is "Liedermacher" (SingingDoc)

At times of the GDR he sang in churches at least 50 times a year
and his protest songs were essential for surviving in the communist regime of that time.

When he gave a tape with his recordings to a friend to carry it to the Bavarian Radio station
he had bad luck - since this man was "IM" (part of the secret service). This brought Bomberg
to jail for "political reasons"...

Five years later the Berlin wall fell - and Bomberg slightly sang different kinds of songs, more poetical kind.
Although there are occasions to sing the "old" protest songs on congresses or events where this musical
period is estimated.

He recently brought out a new CD with his band, listen to a sample (.mp3): "Herr Binder oder Schlips und Kragen"!

14) Ray did it!

Publisher Heading into English’s Hall of Fame
BY ROBIN CONNOLLY
FOR THE LYNN ITEM

Ray McMahon, founder of New York’s McMahon Publishing Group, the 10th largest medical publisher in the U.S., generating an annual $34 million and employing over 140, had a few people to thank at Tuesday’s Lynn English High School Hall of Fame induction ceremonies.

The 1956 graduate and high school football standout, a “skinny kid” 50 years ago who subsequently was offered a full athletic scholarship to UConn, said thanks to former teacher/coach and later state senator Walter Boverini. “Walter was the one” said the inductee, who married his “high school sweetheart,” Rosanne (Cronin) McMahon, class of ‘57— “who taught me how to play linebacker and blocking back, but also about how to handle myself.”

The self-admitted 16-year-old “wise guy, hanging out in Central Square and the pool halls,” was first spotted by Cobbett Junior High’s coach Harry Cody. “He was the first adult,” said the father of four, “who said to me, ‘You have real athletic ability, and if you straighten yourself out, you could get a scholarship to college.”

He went straight to “a three-sport player and enrolled in the 9th grade college course taking Latin,” he said, before joining Carl Palumbo, “the last of the single-wing” coaches on the Bulldog field, and meeting the man who would change his life, Walter Boverini. “He had great style about him,” said the four-year UConn backup running back and defensive halfback, who was part of championship teams that racked up 17 consecutive wins in the Yankee Conference and four championships in a row. “He cared about the players and was someone I wanted to emulate. In my senior year, I came back from a near career-ending concussion, had seven excellent games, enough for a good highlight film, and was recruited by UConn.”

McMahon, who also points to Lynn legend Elmo Benedetto as being among his supporters, served as an army first lieutenant artillery officer and helicopter pilot after college before eventually founding McMahon Publishing 35 years ago.

The man living “the American dream” insists it all started in Lynn. “None of us ever became successful all by ourselves. If you have not done it already, write a note to one of your old coaches”—as he did eight years ago— “or teachers, thanking them for helping you out.”

McMahon employees come family-style, including daughters Michele (McMahon) Velle and Lauren (McMahon) Smith and sons Mike and Matt McMahon (both of whom were all-state Connecticut football players recruited to play at Lehigh University), together with their husbands and wives and, at one point, Ray’s dad. “This is truly a family business,” the CEO/Publisher said, responding, when complimented on his obvious “boss” skills that, perhaps, his thought was, “I didn’t do too badly as a father so… why not?”

In 2001, the executive started a $10,000 athletic scholarship at Lynn English. “Many have helped us along in this life, and it’s important that we recognize this and show our appreciation.”

Accompanied by two 6’3, 285pound former defense tackles, sons Mike and Matt (“We grow them big in the McMahon family.”), three of his seven grandchildren, and his friends and high school standouts Dave Zeno, Art Fiste, and coach Walter Boverini, McMahon showed our village something about the American dream. It’s the same place to which he returned years ago after a Harvard/Cornell game with Boverini and remembers “walking out of that stadium thinking, ‘This is for me. I can do this.’”

Ray McMahon did it. And his successes still bind this publisher to the place where it all started.

Subject: Re: Für Lüder: PianoDoc grüßt JokeDoc

Lieber Herr Ellenberger,
vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage. Gerne dürfen Sie Material von meiner Webseite benutzen und mich "auf Ihre Seite holen". Leider komme ich zur Zeit nicht dazu, noch zusätzlich etwas über mich zu schreiben. Aber vielleicht kann ich das zu einem späteren Zeitpunkt nachholen. Mit der Einordnung in "JokeDocs" kann ich mich noch nicht ganz anfreunden. Das klingt mir, der ich mich immer noch dem politischen Kabarett verpflichtet fühle, ein wenig zu leicht und zu sehr nach Comedy. Mit einem entsprechenden Hinweis ist das aber denkbar. Und neben dem Kollegen von Hirschhausen fühle ich mich auch gut aufgehoben.
Soweit erstmal.
Mit besten Grüßen aus Köln
Lüder Wohlenberg

Ich benutze "political comedy". Lass es doch einfach bei "JokeDocs", dass klingt abgedreht und interessant. Die Übergänge sind fließend und, wie gesagt, neben Eckart fühle ich mich auch ganz wohl.
