I never could write in cursive except to sign my name. Hell, I don't even PRINT that good!
Also: why is it that "print" means write in printing but "curse" doesn't mean write in cursive? Never could figure that out...

Nicolette Gray writes of Minister (Caslon 1880), “More interesting is the group of faces, neither quite script nor gothic, but very round like the new blacks, and like all blacks dominated by the lower-case design.
“Early versions still have something of the clerical touch of the seventies, Caslon's Minister is nonconformist with its smooth blacks and horizontal stresses and so is Stephenson Blake's Old Style Ornamented, even though the absurd hair lines popping up in curls detract from the downward droop of the lower-case m and n and the upper-case R.”¹
This face was designed by Herman Ihlenburg in 1878. The patent was assigned to MacKellar, Smiths & Jordan; MSJ showed it as Minster.

USFS write-up; The former Lava Cast Forest Geological Area (now part of the Newberry National Volcanic Monument) was established by the Forest Service in 1942. The geological area was established to protect the many lava trees and tree molds which occur in the area. The various flows of the Lava Cast Forest were all erupted from the Northwest Rift Zone of Newberry Volcano.
There is a one mile paved self guided interpretive trail with barrier free access. The trail loops through an area where hot molten lava erupted from the northwest flank of Newberry Volcano and engulfed a forest here 7,000 years ago. The landscape now includes the "casts" or molds, of these ancient trees. Colonizing plants, such as delicate penstemon flowers and Indian paintbrush, have taken root in the rocky soil. Ponderosa pine trees have re-established themselves and flourished as well, so that the landscape now includes a blend of the past and the present.

Anything becomes easier to learn when it begins to sound interesting. So, if you are planning on learning one of the most popular languages in the world, checking some cool facts about it can help. Here are some Russian language facts worth reading:
1.Number of Words:
Just a century ago, the number of words in this vernacular was between 50,000 to 100,000, Although the number has doubled in the 21st century, it is still not a huge figure as compared to other vernaculars. This means that plenty of them have more than one meaning. The speakers of this tongue prefer to use as little phrases as they can. They only use a few of the 200,000 words that show up in the Russian dictionaries of today.
2.Last Names:
Ever wondered why every Russian’s last name sounds the same? Well, that’s because the last names depending on gender. So, if a boy is being named, his last name will be formed by combining his father’s name with ‘ovich.’ In case it is a daughter who is about to get a new name, it will be formed by combining her father’s name with ‘ovna.’ So, even if the first name in a story does not tell you anything about the gender of a character, the last name will give it away.
3.Importance in Space Travel:
If you want to become an astronaut and explore the outer space, you will have to learn Russian. Otherwise, all of your knowledge about astrophysics won’t be able to get you to space. The reason behind this regulation is Russia’s presence in the International Space Station.
4.English Words:
There is good news for English speakers who wish to learn this tongue. If you read ten Russian words, one of them will be similar to an English term. This is why a native English speaker may have a bit of an advantage when learning this language.
5.Words with A:
There is an unwritten rule in the Russian language against words that start with A. Even native speakers might have difficulty recalling a word that begins with the letter A. And if you are studying a dictionary and come across a word that starts with this letter, it means that was adopted from another vernacular. There is a high chance that it will be an English word because of the huge influence of the language on the world.
6.Syllables:
Not only do the Russians speak a few words, but they also prefer fewer syllables. Most of the words in the language have only word syllables. This is quite a unique factor for the speakers of the English language. However, almost all of the adjectives in Russian have more than one syllable.
