MLA textual citation request
Mellel does not appear to correctly format MLA textual citations properly when scanning and document and generating a bibliography. My understanding of MLA is thus: 1. the first time a work is cited, both the author and the page number are enclosed in quotes with a space between them and no other pu...

What is the origin of the "hit apple-s" every ten seconds mentality? I lived in an apartment for a year where the power went out unexpectedly at least once a month. I had a desktop computer.
