Text length Article lengths can vary greatly—from 1,500 to 5,500 words—­ depending on the subject matter. Our approach is that if you needmoreorlesswordstodothetopicjustice,thenpleasemake the article as long or as short as necessary. Wecanrunanunusuallylongarticleinmultipleparts,butthis usually entails a topic for which each part can stand alone be- cause it contains so much information. In short, we do not want to limit you in terms of article length, sopleaseusethewordcountaboveasageneralguidelineandif youhavespecificquestions,pleasedonothesitatetocontactus. Text formatting We also ask that you forego any special formatting beyond the useofitalicsandboldface.Ifyouwouldliketoemphasisecertain wordswithinthetext,pleaseonlyuseitalics(donotuseunderli­ ningoralargerfontsize).Boldfaceisreservedforarticleheaders. Pleasedonotuseunderlining. Please use single spacing and make sure that the text is left ­jus­­­­- tified. Please do not centre text on the page. Do not indent para- graphs, rather place a blank line between paragraphs. Please do notaddtabstops.

Image requirements Please number images consecutively throughout the article by using a new number for each image. If it is imperative that certainimagesaregroupedtogether,thenuselowercaseletters to designate these in a group (for example, 2a, 2b, 2c). Please place image references in your article wherever they areappropriate,whetherinthemiddleorattheendofasentence. If you do not directly refer to the image, place the reference at the end of the sentence to which it relates enclosed within brackets and before the period. In addition, please note: ·· We require images in TIF or JPEG format. ·· Theseimagesmustbenosmallerthan6x6cminsizeat300DPI. ·· Theseimagefilesmustbenosmallerthan80KBinsize(orthey willprintthesizeofapostagestamp!).
