The No. 19 Texas Women's Cross Country team heads to Louisville, Ky. this week to take on the nation's top competition at the NCAA Championships on Saturday at E.P. "Tom" Sawyer Park. ?The Longhorns earned their third-straight automatic qualification for the national meet by placing second as a team at the NCAA South Central Regional last weekend in Fayetteville, Ark. ?

The women's 6,000-meter championship race is scheduled for 11 a.m. Central on Saturday while the men's 8,000-meter championship race will take place at 12:15 p.m.? NCAA.com will carry a live web stream of the event.?

Junior Marielle Hall, who was named the 2012 U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association South Central Region Athlete of the Year after winning the individual title at the region meet, and fellow junior Sara Sutherland have paced UT throughout the 2012 season.? They will be joined on Saturday by seniors Laleh Mojtabaeezamani and Anne Jones, who will round out their cross country careers for Texas, along with juniors Megan Siebert and Brittany Marches and freshman Kendall Howen.?


?

?


"At Nationals we really just want to remain positive throughout the duration of the trip," Hall said. "It's really getting each other ready for the race and giving an effort that's representative of the best that we can do and the best that we can be.? If we each do that I think without trying to control other circumstances or other people, then we can do special things."

For Hall, Sutherland, Mojtabaeezamani, Siebert and Marches, competing on the national stage will be a familiar position.? All five raced for the Longhorns at the 2011 NCAA Championships, where Texas came in 26th. ?Siebert, Hall, Sutherland and Mojtabaeezamani also competed for Texas at NCAAs in 2010, where UT was 20th.

"The National Championship is a big stage and it takes awhile to accommodate yourself to it," Texas cross country coach Stephen Sisson said.? "I think that the experience all the girls have had is going to really catapult them into a spot where they aren't going to be intimidated by the field size, they're not going to be intimidated by the weather or the course and they're not going to be intimidated by the people they race against.? They believe they belong in this race and I know they do. "

The Longhorns will be racing a course that is familiar to them and on which they have experienced success, having competed in the Pre-Nationals Invitational at the same venue in October and placing fifth out of 39 teams.?

"Running the Pre-Nationals meet was very valuable for us to get experience on that course and I think we had the best race that we have had all year so far at that race," Sisson said.? "We had a good five runners at Pre-Nats so we're going in there with some comfort and really excited about what we think we're going to be able to pull out at that meet."

The Great American Unproduced Screenplay

David Ward's SAG headshot, 1985 David Ward's SAG headshot, 1985

Courtesy of David Ward.

I first read Edward Ford?the famously brilliant, famously unproduced screenplay by Lem Dobbs?in 2003, during the first year of a comprehensively unsuccessful attempt to become a professional screenwriter. Our manager gave my writing partner and me a copy, perhaps sensing thematic affinities between Dobbs? masterpiece and the non-masterpiece we had just written (about an alcoholic airline pilot, but not Flight). As happens anytime Edward Ford changes hands, the words ?greatest? and ?unproduced? were both used. Given that the next thing we worked on with this manager was a twin-swapping comedy with a talking car, it?s entirely possible he intended Edward Ford as a cautionary example, and I missed his emphasis on ?unproduced.? But I sure agree with ?greatest.? And so does most of Hollywood; the script has been passed around more or less continuously since Dobbs wrote it in 1978?several millennia ago, in film years?and it?s perpetually about to go into production. In fact, it?s happening once again: As of this week, a trio of Oscar nominees are attached to the project, as producers once again attempt to finance Edward Ford. But regardless of whether it?s ever filmed, it?s one of the great works of American art.

That sounds like an absurd claim to make, because there?s something uniquely shameful about unproduced screenplays. Unpublished novels have a similar air of failure about them, but a manuscript at least has the virtue of being in its final form?at the bottom of a drawer or on a best-seller display at Barnes & Noble, it?s still words on a page. Screenplays, on the other hand, are written to be watched, not read?if it?s still on paper, something didn?t work out. Lem Dobbs, of course, has had plenty of screenplays work out, from his uncredited rewrite on Romancing the Stone to next year?s Robert Redford-directed thriller The Company You Keep. But even if Edward Ford never makes it into theaters, the screenplay makes sense on a bookshelf. I?d put it right next to The Great Gatsby, that other great American work of longing and failure.

Edward Ford?s Edward Ford is a borderline-OCD film fan bouncing around the dregs of Hollywood trying to get work as an actor. He keeps meticulous records on carefully typed file cards not just of the films he sees but also of their casts and the theaters where he saw them?a sort of analog IMDb. Ford has an autist?s ability to remember unimportant details while missing the big picture: In one scene, he tells amused party guests that he didn?t enjoy Olivier?s Richard III because ?It was just a boring remake of a Karloff picture called Tower of London.? But he isn?t your garden-variety film eccentric: He doesn?t meet a charming underprivileged kid, or stumble upon a worldwide conspiracy, or inherit a fortune. There?s no ?inciting incident? or ?call to adventure? in this screenplay. There?s just the passage of time, in all its strangeness and glory.

Which is not to say nothing happens. The script opens in the early 1960s as Edward Ford arrives in Hollywood, hoping to be cast as the bad guy in B-Westerns. As plans go, this is a terrible one: Republic Pictures, the last of the Poverty Row studios, shut down in the late 1950s. But he doesn?t have any real sense of being a man out of his time?he blithely follows other actors auditioning with Gorky and Strindberg with a performance of Lionel Atwill?s monologue from Son of Frankenstein.

The script tracks Ford through two decades of artistic and financial failure: a marriage, a divorce, the deaths of close friends, his entire life happening while he survives on TV dinners and longs for his SAG card. He gets work as a ?waiver,? even further down the totem pole than an extra?there?s an insert shot with a giant arrow identifying his head in a crowd scene?but he can?t get a line. Eventually, he settles into a more or less stable existence playing the villain in black theater productions: crooked white cops, ?Mother? in A Hatful of Rain, and the like. Bad guys, like he wanted. But not exactly like he wanted.

Ford?s story plays out against the parallel lives of his two closest friends from high school, Ben Krantz and Al Foster. Krantz, the most successful of the trio, is a relatively well-known painter, teaching art at UCLA and sleeping his way through the student body. Foster wants to be a screenwriter (?Interest has been shown in my scripts and I've been attending a number of meetings?), but, alcoholic and thin-skinned, he has none of Ford?s ability to shield himself from failure. The script ends with an Adaptation-like recursion: Krantz?s son writes a movie about Ford, who gets a cameo and finally gets his SAG card.

But the plot matters much less than the portrait Dobbs captures of a willful blindness that?s central to human nature. Ford amiably soldiers on as the world changes around him, convinced that at some point he?ll get an agent, a line, a SAG card. It?s not quite hubris; as Ben Krantz says, ?I don't think he knows. He doesn't know. About the road getting narrower ... as you go.? And Dobbs manages to show this happening, Ford?s road getting narrower, in painful detail, while Ford himself doesn?t notice. On any page of Edward Ford, you can say, as Fitzgerald said of Gatsby, that ?his dream must have seemed so close that he could hardly fail to grasp it. He did not know that it was already behind him.?

Some of the script?s enduring reputation undoubtedly comes from what I think of as the Sideways effect: If there?s one group of people predisposed to like a screenplay about a film nerd who doesn?t succeed in Hollywood, surely it?s aspiring screenwriters. I can certainly attest that Edward Ford resonates more deeply with each fresh failure to sell a screenplay. More than that, though, Edward Ford has grown in my estimation with each screenplay I?ve read over the years. That?s less a compliment to Dobbs than it is a comment on the state of screenwriting: the outsized influence of a few screenwriting gurus has ensured that even the very best screenplays have a certain monotonous predictability to them. Every time I slog through another script that delivers precisely the expected turns and jolts on precisely the expected pages, I have more appreciation for the way Edward Ford?s structure follows theme instead of a template.

But saying it?s pretty good for a screenplay doesn?t go far enough. Though written by a 19-year-old, Edward Ford is one of the few works of art that tackles real, bone-deep, four-in-the-morning terrors. You might not have the talent you need. Success may no longer be available to you. Time will bury everything you care about. These are not things you want whispered in your ear on date night, and they don?t turn studio executives' eyes into dollar signs. But they are essential parts of what it means to be human.

Edward Ford has kicked around Hollywood now for longer than Edward Ford himself, and under similar circumstances. Ford arrived in town a few years too late to star in a Republic Western; Dobbs managed to write what should have been one of the great New Hollywood films in 1978, just as the studios stopped making them. Its life as a cult object began in the early 1980s, when Stuart Cornfeld?now running Ben Stiller?s production company, but at the time working at Fox?read it, loved it, and started passing it around. Steven Soderbergh, who got a copy from Cornfeld, mentioned the script in his sex, lies, and videotape diaries. As Dobbs, now 52, tells me, ?Suddenly every would-be filmmaker in the world, and film journalist, agog at Soderbergh?s ascendance and wanting to read about and emulate him, saw this reference in his book. That's when the?endless?articles and so on started about ?best unproduced blah-blah ...? ? (Adds Dobbs, darkly, ?This was also the moment when ?screenwriting? became the basis of civilization, where before it had been simply a profession and largely unnoticed?).

Wedding entourage killed in Afghan bombing

A local official says the victims were travelling in a minibus though Farah province when the bomb ripped through their vehicle.

Most of the victims have been identified as women and children.

Provincial police are blaming Taliban insurgents for planting the bomb.

Roadside bombs are the weapon of choice of the hardline Islamists.

They are fighting Afghan forces and the 100,000 NATO troops in an effort to topple the government of President Hamid Karzai.

Afghan weddings are often lavish affairs, drawing hundreds of relatives and guests from far afield.

The latest blast took the total toll among wedding guests on the roads to 46 in less than a month.

Guatemala earthquake: Strong 7.5 quake shakes region, at least one fatality

Guatemala earthquake: The 7.5 magnitude quake collapsed houses and a school building, injuring eight people. The earthquake, off the Guatemala coast, was felt as far away as Mexico City. .

By Staff,?Associated Press / November 7, 2012

A magnitude 7.5 earthquake struck off the Pacific Coast of Guatemala Wednesday a.m.

A strong earthquake struck off the Pacific coast of Guatemala Wednesday morning, rocking the capital and shaking buildings as far away as Mexico City and El Salvador. Guatemala's emergency management agency said on its Twitter account that it had received preliminary reports of one death from the quake.

The U.S. Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was a possibility of a local tsunami, within 100 or 200 miles of the epicenter, but they were not issuing an immediate warning for the broader region. The magnitude-7.5 quake, about 20 miles deep, was centered off the town of Champerico. Nicaragua's disaster management said it had issued a local tsunami alert, but there were no immediate reports of a tsunami on the country's Pacific coast.

People fled buildings in Guatemala City, in Mexico City and in the capital of the Mexican state of Chiapas, across the border from Guatemala.

RELATED: Nuclear sites in the Pacific ring of fire

A reporter in the town of San Marcos, about 80 miles north of the epicenter, told local radio station Emisoras Unidas that houses had collapsed onto residents and smashed televisions and other appliances had been scattered into the streets.

The local fire department said on its Twitter account that a school had collapsed and eight injured people had been taken to a nearby hospital. Local radio reported widespread power outages and cuts in telephone service.

A spokesman for El Salvador's Red Cross branch told The Associated Press that the quake had been felt throughout the country, sending people fleeing their homes in the capital, but there had been no immediate reports of injuries or serious damage. He said there had been no local tsunami warning issued. El Salvador's Civil Protection agency said officials were evacuating some coastal communities as a precautionary measure.

The mayor of Mexico City said no serious damage or injuries had been reported in the city, although many people had fled their offices and homes during the quake.
