    • Jim said: Henry Fowler's classic on the English language is out in a new edition.
      Quote: Holt tells the interesting story of how Fowler became "Fowler." Henry Fowler was a former school teacher and amateur wordsmith who lived on the island of Guernsey with his younger brother Frank. In the first decade of the 20th century, Henry and Frank published a book titled The King's English, which, despite their amateur status, was a great success. They took on the editing of The Concise Oxford Dictionary and then planned a larger book on the language, but World War I occurred. Frank died of tuberculosis, and Henry barely survived a bout of illness, But when he did, he took up the project that he and his brother had envisioned.

    • Jim said: Basic concepts of photojournalism: JPROF series. Read Mark Johnson's addition.
      Quote: Photojournalists understand composition and subject matter and have a good sense of what constitutes an interesting, informative picture. They know about light, exposure and contrast. Most of all, they understand that good pictures require thought and planning and not just the ability to snap a shutter.
