So far, the first daughter -- one of the President's closest confidants -- has largely managed to escape the glare of the Russia investigation. She has not been called to testify on Capitol Hill. She told NBC she has not met with Mueller for an interview. 255

Since the U.S. adopted Common Core standards in public schools back in 2010, cursive has declined and even disappeared entirely in some school districts.But, is erasing cursive to the detriment of future generations?Let's begin with keeping cursive alive - in the home studio of Srujana Nimmagadda, owner of Menakshee Designs."Learning to write well is something that you're never going to regret," said Srujana Nimmagadda, owner of Menakshee Designs. During the day, she works at Bel Aerospace as an engineer. But she also practices the art of calligraphy.For her, it's not a cloudy issue at all; good handwriting has value."I think there's just a different sort of connection that you have receiving a hand-written letter," Nimmagadda said.And she argues there's a quiet confidence projected when communicating in cursive."If there's a way to keep it in schools, I think they should," she said.But according to Dr. Krista Griffin, a literacy professor at Metropolitan State University of Denver, there isn't a lot of research that suggests keeping — or dropping — cursive in schools. "There isn't a lot of research supporting cursive one way or another," Griffin said.She has 25 years of experience teaching future teachers."There's no one-size-fits-all anything in education," Griffin said. "That's what I tell those future teachers."Griffin says in the 21st century, with high stakes standardized testing, cursive isn't always worth valuable classroom time, especially given the demands put on teachers today."If I'm a teacher and I know my job is dependent on how well my students do, cursive isn't on the test," she said.But, she also sees strong cognitive learning with reading and writing in cursive."When I'm taking notes, I can't move as quickly as when I'm keyboarding," Griffin said. "So, I'm going to be thinking about what the professor is saying and paraphrasing, which is a higher-level cognitive skill."Other experts agree."There's a myth that in the era of computers we don't need handwriting," said a leading national researcher. "That's not what our research is showing. What we found was that children until about Grade 6 were writing more words, writing faster and expressing more ideas if they could use handwriting — printing or cursive."Victor Camacho, the owner of High Performance Tutoring, questions the time-commitment given to cursive."I learned cursive when I was in 3rd grade," Camacho said. "And I haven't used it since. There was no real practical reason to use it."Camacho and his 35 tutors put a heavy emphasis on STEM disciplines."Art is practical in that it kind of feeds our soul in a sense," Camacho said. "But, it's not practical in the sense that, 'Oh – you need to eat.'"He believes a greater emphasis on things like statistics, personal finance and computer programming would be much more beneficial in school than teaching cursive.Camacho believes higher proficiency in those skills could also alleviate many ongoing societal issues."If we replace cursive with helping people manage their finances, I think that would go a long way," he said. "How to manage money and how compounding interest works and how investments work and risks vs. returns. That's what children should be learning."Stephanie Rosalky is the owner of Wash Park Tutoring, and she doesn't disagree."Cursive is not a skill that is needed today to be successful," Rosalky said. "Everything has really moved to a technology platform."But, Rosalky says cursive does have practical applications, for example, it can help with disorders like dyslexia on a case-by-case basis."It kind of limits some reversals that are happening for students," Rosalky said."I have a friend who has dyslexia and she will do less reversals and omit fewer letters when she uses cursive," Griffin said.Both Griffin and Rosalky also respect the argument that cursive is a long-forgotten, elegant form of writing that is appreciated more by older generations."They see it as a very personal way of communicating that gets lost," Griffin said."It is beautiful," Rosalky said. "It looks very nice.""There's something very grounding about picking up a pen and paper," Nimmagadda said. "There's a lot of history and tradition. You can tell what's happening in a society through the years as you study a style of script."This story was originally published by Russell Haythorn on 4371

Some Stoneman Douglas students are conflicted on the possibility of a death penalty trial.Student leader Emma Gonzalez describes Cruz's potential death penalty trial as a "good" thing. Another student, Cameron Kasky, wants him to "rot forever" in prison instead.Pollack does not refer to the gunman by name, and calls him 1800-1958 -- his criminal case number. If the death penalty trial proceeds, he said, he will not attend any hearings.Instead of facing his daughter's killer in court, Pollack said he'll focus on ensuring her memory lives on through a program he's launched to ensure school safety.A death penalty trial would deeply divide a grieving community, leading to fingerpointing between the school board, sheriff's office and state and federal governments, who've been accused of missing Cruz's many red flags before the shooting, Finkelstein said. 862

Special Operations Chief Edward Gallagher, who was accused of fatally stabbing a wounded teenage ISIS fighter and shooting Iraqi civilians, was acquitted Tuesday of six of the seven charges he had faced. After eight hours of deliberation at the Naval Base in San Diego, a jury of five Marines and two Navy men found the highly decorated veteran not guilty of murder, attempted murder, willful discharge of a firearm and obstruction of justice and convicted him solely of posing with the teen's body in a photograph. 515
