• Cursive handwriting makes a comeback in elementary schools

Evi and her classmates are learning the art of cursive writing, the old-school style of writing defined by flair and flourishes that are absent in block printing.

It requires a certain patience, if not talent, to get the fancy letters spaced just so.

• Here’s why pharmacies are on a financial precipice

Pharmacist DJ Kiesel pays a wholesaler to get the medicines in stock. Still, the reimbursements he gets from pharmacy benefit managers — intermediaries between drug manufacturers and insurance providers — are often insufficient to cover Kiesel’s costs.

Losses on a 30-day prescription can add up. They’re often worse on expensive brand-name medications.

• Strict Pa. law would curb any payout to Fern Hollow victims even if city is liable

No matter how many millions of dollars a jury might award in such cases of grievous injury or death, state law protects municipalities and counties in Pennsylvania, capping payments at $500,000, even when found liable for the most horrific, life-altering incidents. The limit is even lower for the state: $250,000.
