+  </p>
+  <p>
+  We are pleased to announce the release of a new Conservation track based on the human 
+  (GRCh38/hg38) assembly. This track shows multiple alignments of 100 vertebrate species and
+  measurements of evolutionary conservation using two methods (phastCons and phyloP) from the
+  PHAST package for all species. The multiple alignments were generated using multiz and other
+  tools in the UCSC/Penn State Bioinformatics comparative genomics alignment pipeline.
+  Conserved elements identified by phastCons are also displayed in this track. For more
+  details, visit the 
+  <a href="../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=cons100way">track description page</a>.

+  <p>
+  We would like to thank Hiram Clawson and Jonathan Casper for their efforts in creating this track.

 	New blog post:  How to share your UCSC screenthoughts </b></font>
 	</p>
 	<p>
         Do you want to save your UCSC Browser screenthoughts, or share them with a colleague,
         or make a slide for a talk, or publish them in a paper?  Saving the state of your screen
         can take two forms:  static or dynamic.  You can snap and save a picture of the screen,
         or you can share a link to an active Genome Browser.  We talk about both approaches

-	GENCODE Genes Now the Default Gene Set on the Human (GRCh38/hg38) Assembly</b></font>
-	<p>
-	In a move towards standardizing on a common gene set within the bioinformatics 
-	community, UCSC has made the decision to adopt the GENCODE set of gene models 
-	as our default gene set on the human genome assembly. Today we have released 
-	the GENCODE v22 comprehensive gene set as our default gene set on human 
-	genome assembly GRCh38 (hg38), replacing the previous default UCSC Genes set 
-	generated by UCSC. To facilitate this transition, the new gene set employs 
-	the same familiar UCSC Genes schema, using nearly all the same table names 
-	and fields that have appeared in earlier versions of the UCSC set.
-	</p>
-	<p>
-	By default, the browser displays only the transcripts tagged as &quot;basic&quot; by the 
-	GENCODE Consortium. These may be found in the track labeled "GENCODE Basic" in 
-	the Genes and Gene Predictions track group. However, all the transcripts in the 
-	GENCODE comprehensive set are present in the tables, and may be viewed by 
-	adjusting the track configuration settings for the All GENCODE super-track. 
-	The most recent version of the UCSC-generated genes can still be accessed in 
-	the track &quot;Old UCSC Genes&quot;.
-	</p>
-	<p>
-	The new release has 195,178 total transcripts, compared with 104,178 in the 
-	previous version. The total number of canonical genes has increased from 
-	48,424 to 49,534. Comparing the new gene set with the previous version:
-	</p>
-	<ul>
-	<li>9,459 transcripts did not change.</li>
-	<li>22,088 transcripts were not carried forward to the new version.</li>
-	<li>43,681 transcripts are "compatible" with those in the previous set, 
-	meaning that the two transcripts show consistent splicing. In most cases, 
-	the old and new transcripts differ in the lengths of their UTRs.</li>
-	<li>28,950 transcripts overlap with those in the previous set, but do not 
-	show consistent splicing (i.e., they contain overlapping introns with 
-	differing splice sites)</li>
-	</ul>
-	<p>
-	More details about the new GENCODE Basic track can be found on the
-	<a href="http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=hg38&g=knownGene"> 
-	GENCODE Basic track description page</a>.
