From Sergio Méndez. War on Photography, Colombian edition. ‘Assaulted photographer begs for reflection on the role of authority. ‘Ana María García begs that the aggression she was victimized by at the hands of police won’t keep happening. ‘Ana María García, photographer for ELTIEMPO, has taken five days of disability leave after a cop assaulted her when she tried to do her job and take some pictures of an accident between two TransMilenio busses on Wednesday morning. . . . “I’m glad for the support that’s been offered me, the solidarity from the media, colleagues, and ordinary people, but I think of the people who don’t have a camera to record what’s happening to them and it’s worrying.” . . . “I was the only one trying to record what was happening, I wasn’t disrespecting anybody. All of a sudden the cop grabs me by the arm without saying a word. I asked him to let me go and he didn’t do it. Instead he yanked my arm and threw me down to the ground,” said the photographer. . . .’

Wilbur: “For those who weren’t reading the blog back in those days, it’s a chance to see some of the first steps in my work on the history of mutualism, and the historical bits are interspersed with a series of posts on the process of doing research and how it was changing at a time when resources like Google Books were just making their appearance.”

Nerd alert. “Houghton Mifflin Harcourt announced on Sunday that it had acquired the United States rights to publish a previously unknown work by J. R. R. Tolkien, “The Fall of Arthur.” The book, set for publication in May, chronicles the last days of King Arthur and will be edited by Tolkien’s son Christopher, who will also provide commentary and notes.”

Re: my earlier question — many thanks to Shawn P. Wilbur for helping confirm I had the right records, which led to an obit.
