UAMS Counter List Block
The UAMS Counter List Block should be used to display an ever-increasing count of a thing or list of things from a specific date and time.
Capitalize the text in the heading according to the AP Style rules for composition titles.
The starting date/time can be defined using a specific date and time. Alternatively, it can be defined using the beginning of the current day, week (Sunday), month or year. This is set at the block level, but it can be overridden at the counter item level.
The Counter Item Title defines the heading of each item you want to count.
The Counter Item Unit Singular and Plural define the unit(s) displayed after the count.
The Rate of Increase defines how much the count should increase after one second.

- Description: 518 characters at most, though 317 characters or fewer is recommended
- Counter item unit, singular: 90 characters
