This Vampire Killing Kit complete with a wooden stake and 10 silver bullets sold for $12,000 as part of Sotheby's sale of 19th century furniture and decorative works of art in New York, Thursday, Oct. 30, 2003. The kit, a walnut box that also contained a crucifix, a pistol, a rosary and vessels for garlic powder and various serums, was bought by an anonymous phone bidder. (AP Photo/Sotheby's)

That doesn't look like a crucifix to me -- it should have a representation of Christ "fixed" to the cross. That's just a metal cross.

What do I need to do in order to make an active link in these comments?

At the moment, you have to add the HTML... which means

Rosemary, at this point you have to add in the "http://" part.

Thanks, I noticed that too. Will this same HTML work for adding a link to a comment on the NMJ weblogs? I tried but when I clicked preview I saw the text but it wasn't an active link.

Some students haven't turned on the feature to permit HTML in weblog comments, and others haven't turned on the feature that automatically turns URLs into links.
