# Caspar Ritter

Caspar Ritter (7 February 1861, Esslingen am Neckar - 18 July 1923, Ermatingen) was a Swiss portrait painter; primarily of women. He also created genre scenes and nudes.

## Life and work

He was the second of eight children born to Johann Ulrich Ritter, a spinning mill director who was originally from Switzerland. He completed secondary school in Winterthur, where he lived with his grandfather. After graduating, in accordance with his father's wishes, he served an apprenticeship as a machine technician in Flums then, in 1879, went back to Winterthur, where he took a position at the Rieter & Co. textile machine factory. He soon developed health problems, which gave him an opportunity to express his preference for a career in art.
In 1880, on the recommendation of his brother, who was a teacher, he began training as a drawing teacher at the Technikum Winterthur [de]; under the tutelage of Anton Seder and Léon Jean Pétua (1846-1921). Two years later, he was able to transfer to the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich, where he studied with Alois Gabl [de], Ludwig von Herterich and Ludwig von Löfftz. After completing his studies, he worked for the Academy's pre-school program. That same year, he married Wilhelmine Sophie Linder. As a member of the upper bourgeoisie, she was able to provide him with contacts for portrait commissions.
The following year, they moved to Frankfurt, where he became a teacher of figure painting at the Städel Art Institute. He was there for only a year, when Grand Duke Friedrich I appointed him Professor of portrait painting at the Academy of Fine Arts, Karlsruhe. He would stay there until 1919.
From 1895 to 1900, he held annual showings at the Zürich Artists' Association. In 1896, he was awarded a small gold medal at the Große Berliner Kunstausstellung. His portraits were popular in Germany, but his genre scenes were favored in Switzerland. From 1896 through 1900, he served as a member of the Federal Art Commission [de], a cultural advisory board for the Swiss Federal Council. In 1902 he was awarded the Medal of Merit, Knight's Cross, in the Order of Berthold the First.
He died of a heart attack while visiting a spa in Ermatingen. His works may be seen at several museums in Germany and Switzerland, including the Kunstmuseum Düsseldorf, Musée Rath, Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe and the Kunstmuseum Winterthur.

# Enter Ghost

Enter Ghost is a 2024 novel by Isabella Hammad. It was the winner of the 2024 RSL Encore Award and shortlisted for the 2024 Women's Prize for Fiction amongst other awards. It has been reviewed by the New York Times and The Guardian.
The title, "Enter Ghost," refers to a stage direction from Shakespeare's Hamlet; the novel takes place during a 2017 production of the play in the West Bank. The book explores themes of homecoming and hauntings, as well as Palestinian and Arabic theater traditions.

## Plot

Sonia is a British-Palestinian actress living in London, who has recently ended an affair with a theater director. In an attempt to escape the theater world and her former lover, Sonia takes an extended trip to Haifa to visit her sister Haneen, who teaches at an Israeli university. While she grew up visiting her grandparents and cousins as a child, Sonia has not been back to the region since the Second Intifada.
Despite claims that she is visiting Palestine to escape her life in London and visit Haneen, Sonia finds herself restless and haunted by family dynamics. She discovers that her grandparent's home in Haifa was sold to an Israeli family, and Haneen struggle to connect. Sonia reflects on her experience being brought to the bedside of a Palestinian hunger striker when she was young; this experience was formative for both sisters.
Sonia meets Haneen's friend Mariam, a theater director currently preparing a production of Hamlet. Mariam asks Sonia to read for the parts of Ophelia and Gertrude while they try to find actresses to fill the roles. Hamlet is to be played by a young Palestinian pop star named Wael, whose fame attract more attention toward the production. Mariam's brother, Salim, is a member of the Knesset, has been helping to fund the production, which invites attention from the Israeli intelligence.
The actors discuss the play as an allegory for the Palestinian cause; at one point Mariam encourages Wael to access Hamlet's dark side by portraying him as an Israeli soldier at a checkpoint. Initially, Sonia is dismissive of this interpretation, but she finds more connections between the play and the struggle of Palestinian liberation as she continues working with the cast.

# Mêdog Highway

The Mêdog Highway, Motuo Highway (Chinese: 墨脱公路), or Mêdog Highway, Zhamo Highway (Chinese: 扎墨公路), connecting Tramog, Bomi County to Medog County in Tibet Autonomous Region, is a 117-kilometer engineering marvel traversing six active fault zones in the eastern Himalayas.

## Construction

Completed in October 2013 after 52 years of intermittent construction, it ended Mêdog's status as China's last roadless county. The route goes through the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon. To keep the environment from being too upset, creative solutions were needed, such as elevated bridges and rerouting parts of the route to protect important habitats for endangered species like the snow leopard and Asian golden cat.
Construction faced extreme challenges: workers battled frequent landslides, avalanches, and annual rainfall exceeding 3,000 mm. A key breakthrough was the 3.3-kilometer Galongla Tunnel in 2010, which bypassed permafrost and avalanche-prone slopes at 3,700 meters. The highway incorporates 29 bridges and 227 culverts to stabilize terrain, with 80% of the Medog section built as 4.5-meter-wide reinforced concrete roads to withstand seismic activity.
Ecological safeguards included strict waste management and bans on quarrying near biodiversity hotspots. Post-2013 upgrades extended annual operability from 8 to 11 months, while the 2021 Paimo Highway expansion (part of China National Highway 219) reduced travel time from Lhasa to Mêdog from 12 to 4 hours. The highway supports Mêdog's tea plantations and eco-tourism while maintaining protocols to limit vehicle emissions in the fragile alpine ecosystem.
# Antoni Kozakiewicz

Antoni Kozakiewicz (13 June 1841, Kraków — 3 January 1929, Kraków) was a Polish genre painter in the Realist style.

## Biography

He began his studies in 1857 at the Kraków Academy of Fine Arts under Władysław Łuszczkiewicz, among others, graduating in 1866.
It took him some extra time to complete his courses because, in 1863, he was a participant in the January Uprising, during which he was captured by Russian troops and imprisoned until the insurgency was over. After graduation, he continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna.
In 1871, thanks to an Imperial Scholarship, he was able to continue his education at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich. He shared a studio with Franz Streitt and Aleksander Kotsis and often went on painting expeditions with them in the mountains of Bavaria. His work met with great success there, so he decided to stay; remaining for almost thirty years altogether, although he made regular visits to Poland.
From 1900 to 1905, he lived in Warsaw, but failed to achieve the same success there. He was eventually forgotten and retired to the resort village of Szczawnica. Some sources give his year of death as 1912, which may be the year he stopped painting and/or exhibiting. He returned to Kraków shortly before he died.
Many of his early works were scenes from the January Uprising. He depicted the death of Polish activist Karol Levittoux, who set himself on fire in Warsaw Citadel to avoid betraying his comrades, in his painting Śmierć Karola Levittoux (the original painting is lost, known only from reproduction). In Munich, he painted a series of works depicting the lives of Polish peasants, Jews and Gypsies. He also created illustrations for children's stories and Pan Tadeusz by Adam Mickiewicz, as well as portraits and landscapes. His older brother, Piotr Kozakiewicz [pl] (1836-1893), was a well-known sculptor.

"Magic" is a disco track with violins and a progressive thrust, with Rodgers on guitar and a vocal in which Dubuc sings alongside Brandy. The song was released as the album's fourth and final single. It was met with critical acclaim for its production and catchiness.
The song is featured in the Disney+ movie Magic Camp.

## Music video

An animated music video for "Magic" was directed by French directing duo Double Ninja and produced by Cumulus. Telling a tale of love and creation, the gold-dipped CGI-clip was inspired by the ceremony scene in American film director Stanley Kubrick's final film, the erotic thriller Eyes Wide Shut (1999). The pair planned on creating something in a similar vein in a golden 3D setting. This proved to be particularly challenging as gold reflects light, and in three-dimensional space light can bounce all over the place. The video was released online on February 19, 2015.
Critically acclaimed, the video won both the Best Music Video and the Best Visual Effects category at the Los Angeles Independent Film Festival and Best Music Video at the IFS Film Festival 2015 and the Digitalmation Awards.

# Charles Ransford

Charles Ransford, M.D., was a traditionally educated British physician and a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, who later became the private physician of the Duke of Northumberland and an early advocate of homoeopathic medicine.

## Early life

Ransford was born in Bristol, Gloucestershire, England, in about 1808, the son of Edward Ransford, Jr. (1766–1842) and Mary Jarrett.

## Fellow in Edinburgh

It was at the Royal Infirmary in Bristol that Charles Ransford began his medical education. He later studied in London and Paris before attending the University of Edinburgh, where he graduated with his medical degree in 1833. In 1835 he was inducted as a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh. He fulfilled this position for the next 15 years. He was elected the college's treasurer and examiner, and had the task of straightening out its finances during a period of financial turmoil.
During his tenure as an FRCPE, Dr. Ransford was an outspoken critic of homoeopathy, even blocking the election of a Fellow candidate who professed faith in homoeopathy.
In 1835 Ransford was elected a member of the Harveian Society of Edinburgh and served as President in 1846. In 1839 he was elected a member of the Aesculapian Club.

## Private practice

In 1848, Dr. Ransford resigned from his position in Edinburgh and entered into a general practice partnership in Alnwick, Northumberland, England.
It was during his time in Alnwick that Dr. Ransford first embraced homoeopathic medicine. After seeing its benefits with his patients, he began conducting his own homoeopathic experiments. He consulted with Dr. Rutherford Russell and Dr. Hayle of Rochdale. So swayed in his thinking, Dr. Ransford wrote an essay for the British Journal of Homoeopathy that was later made into a pamphlet entitled, "Reasons for Embracing Homoeopathy". Other homoeopathic articles written by Dr. Ransford include, "The Prevention and Treatment of Scarlatina" and "The Pathogenic Symptoms of Mercurius".
Dr. Ransford eventually became the physician of the Duke of Northumberland, a prominent proponent of homoeopathy.
Dr. Ransford later moved his practice to York, where he remained for ten years, after that removing to Sydenham where he practiced into the 1880s. He finally settled in Winchester, Hampshire.

## Personal life

On 28 August 1833, Charles Ransford married St. Clair Inglis (1802-1910) at Leopold Place in Edinburgh, Scotland. Ransford's wife was a native of Glasgow and a member of the Smalls of Dirnanean. She was the granddaughter of Charles Spalding, an Edinburgh confectioner and an improver of the diving bell who drowned in Dublin Bay in 1783 while diving in a bell of his own design.
Dr. Ransford's oldest daughter was Episcopalian Deaconess, Charlotte Spalding Ransford.
A brother-in-law of Dr. Ransford, and a fellow physician, was Dr. James Inglis.
Charles Ransford died on 11 July 1886 at The Hospital of St. Cross in Winchester, Hampshire, England.
