APA style pages

This is a bit of a dorky post, but this was attached to a call for papers for the Annual in Therapeutic Recreation. Now, I know they just came out with an APA 6, but this is still based on the APA 5. It appears that journals are not ready to embrace the new version, and well, quite frankly, neither am I. Anyways, for all you grad students out there, or anyone else that needs to write in APA format and has the manual, this should be helpful.

Now if only manuscript acceptance was based strictly on one's ability to adhere to APA... but it can't hurt right?!
