Java 8 or JDK 1.8 is the most significant expansion of the Java language yet. Java 8s new features such as Lambda Expressions, Stream APIs, Nashorn, Compact Profiles, new Time APIs increase the expressive power of the platform and make it easier for developers to take advantage of modern, multicore processors. This article gives an overview of the new features in Java 8 with links to in-depth tutorials for the most important of them.
1. Lambda Expressions enable you to treat functionality as a method argument, or code as data. Lambda expressions let you express instances of single-method interfaces (referred to as Functional Interfaces) more compactly.
2. Method references provide easy-to-read lambda expressions for methods that already have a name. Constructor References are the equivalent forms of representation for constructors.
3. Default methods enable new functionality to be added to the interfaces of libraries and ensure binary compatibility with code written for older versions of those interfaces.
4. With default methods in Java 8, multiple inheritance of behavior is now possible in Java, and it is important to understand the conflict resolution rules which resolve Diamond Problem and other conflict scenarios.
Java 8s new package java.util.function provides many useful functional interfaces for the most common scenarios. The 4 most important functional interface among them are Predicate, Consumer, Function and Supplier.
Repeating Annotations provide the ability to apply the same annotation type more than once to the same declaration or type use.
1. New java.util.stream package provides a new Streams API
to support functional-style operations on streams of elements. The Stream API is integrated into the Collections API.
2. Java 8s new Collector interface and its multiple predefined implementations provide an efficient way to terminate the Stream operations and collect the result in a collection.
3. A new Date-Time package java.time with a new comprehensive set of date and time utilities.
4. Java 8s new enhanced methods in Collections API are covered in a series of 4 tutorials Iterable.forEach() & Iterator.remove(), Collection.removeIf(), List.sort() & List.replaceAll(), and new multi-value map methods.
5. Java 8 has introduced new internal iterators based on declarative functional programming style.
6. Comparator interface has undergone a major upgrade in Java 8 with new methods leveraging Java 8s functional programming features, comparator chaining, in-built null handling, and many more such features. Java 8 Comparator tutorial covers these new features in depth.
7. Nashorn Javascript Engine enhanced to provide a version of javascript which would run within the JVM
8. Standard Encoding and Decoding Base64,Parallel Array Sorting and Unsigned Arithematic Support.
9. JDBC 4.2 with new features and notably the JDBC-ODBC bridge has been removed.
10. Concurrency related important changes which include
o Changes to ConcurrentHashMap to support aggregate operations based on the newly added streams facility and lambda expression.
o Addition of classes to the java.util.concurrent.atomic package to support scalable updatable variables.
o Support for a common pool in ForkJoinPool.
o New StampedLock class to to provide a capability-based lock with three modes for controlling read/write access
11. Type Annotations provide the ability to apply an annotation anywhere a type is used, not just on a declaration. Used with a pluggable type system, this feature enables improved type checking of your code.
12. Improved Type Inference and Method Parameter Reflection.
13. Compact Profiles contain predefined subsets of the Java SE platform and enable applications that do not require the entire Platform to be deployed and run on small devices.
14. Improved internationalization including support for Unicode 6.2.0, new Calendar and Locale APIs, Adoption of Unicode CLDR Data and the java.locale.providers System Property and Ability to Install a Custom Resource Bundle as an Extension.
15. In case you are interesting in knowing about the best books on Java 8 then you can read the.

The Complete Java 8 Comparator
Java 8s Comparator is a Functional Interface
Owing to the fact that the Comparator interface has just one abstract method, compare(), it automatically qualifies to be a Functional Interface
in Java 8. Nevertheless, Java 8 designers have gone ahead and annotated the Comparator class interface @FunctionalInterface to enforce its role as a Functional Interface. Being a functional interface, Comparator can now be used as an assignment target for a lambda expression or a method reference.
Java 8 Comparators null handling using nullsFirst()and nullsLast() methods
There are instances where the sort key value is nullable. We have to then decide whether we want to place objects with sort key as null earlier in the ordering than the objects with non-null sort key or at the end of the list after the objects with non-null sort key. Java 8 Comparators provide nullsFirst() and nullsLast() static methods for exactly such sort order handling of null valued sort keys. These methods have the signature
static Comparator nullsFirst(Comparator<? super T> comparator)
AND
static Comparator nullsLast(Comparator<? super T> comparator)
To understand the functioning of these methods, let us make the two of the employee names as null. The below two sections of code and respective output shows how the use of nullsFirst() and nullsLast() handles sorting when some objects have sort-key as null.

Natural Writing ... Using Your Verbal Style to Create Your Written Style

Image source: https://images.template.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Sample-Demonstrative-Speech-Outline-PDF-Download.jpg

When I first started writing, I sat down and worked on a small article for nearly a week. The problem was that I couldn't figure out how to squeeze my idea into the 1,500 word limit. I was lost, frustrated, and almost gave up. After some years of work, many rejections, and a lot of determination, I finally figured out how to fine-tune the process and reduce the time involved so that this "writing stuff" would work for me.

--- Au Naturale ---

>From various writing experiences, I learned that one must be rigid and unemotional in technical or informational writing. As time crept by, a few books and articles went to market, and several documentation sets were completed, I found that the idea of rigidity in writing, regardless of the arena, was terribly boring for the reader---not to mention "the writer." This rigidity was very unnatural for me and the entire process became "a job."

If you write in a way that is not natural for you, your writing will be bad, boring, and broken and it will take you an enormous amount of time to write. Always write in a way that flows out of your fingers and always understand your material BEFORE you write. In this way, your brain can stream the information out and you can write from an expert's point-of-view---you!

--- What'd you say? ---

To write in a natural way, you have to learn your own "verbal" style before you can master a "written" style. If you feel that you don't have style, you're wrong. Say something out loud and listen to your words, voice, and inflexions. This is a general example of YOUR style of communication and is what can make your writing unique as well as smooth.

I found that, if I read out loud one hour a day, I am better able to understand my style. Sounds loony? I got this idea from my actress/singer wife. On her days off, she roams around the house talking to herself, reading scripts, reading books, and singing---all out loud. She said it allows her to hear herself and better understand her voice and style. I tried it ... and it works! This little exercise has allowed my written words to flow like my spoken words using MY style!

--- Does this please you master? ---

If you find writing a chore, you're either in the wrong business or you're not writing about what you should! It's "always" more fun to write about what you enjoy. Why do something you hate? Pick a topic you like and jot notes about it. If you feel compelled, write a short article. Write what you want to write!

Once you get going, make sure that you are doing multiple assignments at the same time. In some cases, you might be doing what you enjoy, but you've hit a wall on the specific topic. Change gears! Work on something else! You're not only exercising your brain and reducing boredom and block, but you're also producing more work.

--- Tell me more. ---

Many new writers sit and wonder how they can shove all their information into 1,500 words or less. The secret is in writing less and saying more. I've edited manuscripts that explain one small point in four sentences. One minor adjustment brought it all down to one sentence! One secret is in the use of active voice.

Many new writers are afraid of being taken as too bold or brash. Tell the reader what it is they need to know in as few words as possible. If you write, "the Web site's promote-ability is increased by ensuring the proper content of the first paragraph and the Meta Tags", you are boring and confusing the reader. Try using the active voice, as in "Proper content of the first paragraph and Meta Tags increases a Web site's promote-ability." That cut the number of words from 19 to 14 and still provides the same information. Active voice is more authoritative and is easier for the reader to understand.

It all boils down to just telling the reader what they need to know. Consider the following sentences. Which one is more natural when spoken?

* A: "The suggested manner of baiting the hook is to, first, take the worm out of the can, hold it just so, and slide it onto the hook such that it covers the hook so as not to frighten the fish swimming in the lake."

* B: "Open the container, grab the worm, and slide it on the hook."

I hope you picked B. You have to consider the context in which the content is delivered. If you're sitting on a boat in the middle of a lake, I'm sure your audience will understand that you're baiting a hook to go fishing. If you're in your living room, of course A is a better choice, but I would have to ask ... why would you bait a hook in your living room?

Be natural in your writing and understand the context. Base written content on how you would present it verbally. Use active voice where appropriate to reduce content and increase clarity.

--- Finish your math, or no dessert! ---

To fully understand the material for a piece, do your homework. Always develop an initial set of questions that need to be answered. For example, I always use the following core set of questions to begin my research:

* Why I am writing this piece?
* What is the focus of the piece?
* Why is this important?
* What group is my primary audience?
* Why would the audience be interested?
* How would it benefit the audience?
* How can the audience use this information?

Try to answer each question with ONE sentence. This not only saves time by defining the direction of the piece, but it also helps you think about the piece in depth---writing one sentence about anything is a chore requiring some examination! If you can't create one-sentence answers, stop now! There's no sense in writing about something that has no real purpose. If you can't understand it, no one else will either.

If you can get the answers on paper, research the topic. However, when do you stop researching? When it clicks into place! Just like writing something you hate, or writing outside of your own style, you can't force organization. Everything has a natural order and if you let it, self-organization will take place---once you understand the topic. The key to doing research is that you aren't done until it makes sense to you! As you begin to understand the topic, it will organize itself for you.

So, don't panic! If the topic doesn't look right, research it until it does! By allowing the information to organize itself through research, you are combining two tasks into one.

--- The Three-Pass Rule ---

I always write in three passes. This approach saves a considerable amount of time by grouping tasks together.

* Pass 1: The Rough
The rough is just a brain-blast. You want to write all the information you already know about the topic. Don't worry about spelling, grammar, or format ... just write.

* Pass 2: Substantive Edit
During the substantive pass, determine context and content. Organize the information and research, fill in the blanks, and make sure that your information is presented completely for the reader.

* Pass 3: Final
The final pass consists of final editing, content checking, and flow.

Don't try to write to perfection, as you will never get it perfect. Write to make it right! I've seen myself rewrite something 20 times to find out that the third pass was better than the last. Write the piece such that it is solid, easy to digest, and presentable---you want something that you can be proud of and something the reader can use.

--- Fugitaboudit! ---

Many writers I know sit and dwell on their last piece. They wonder if anyone will like it, or how many people will send them hate mail. Don't waste your time! Once you send it out, forget about it! It's done, don't dwell, and move on!

I find that the readers that usually dislike my pieces have valid comments from their own perspective. Readers are allowed an opinion, and you can guarantee that you'll hear a good percentage of them. You have to take the good with the bad and learn that criticism is a good thing---at least someone took the time to read your piece!

Native, HTML5, or Hybrid Information about Mobile Application Development Options.

Native, HTML5, or Hybrid: Information about Mobile Application Development Options.

Screens are small, apps are big and life as we know it is back on its head. In a world that is increasingly social and open, mobile apps play a crucial role and have shifted the focus from content on the web to apps on our mobile device. Mobile apps are no longer an option, they are a must. You need a mobile app, but where do you start? There are many factors in your mobile strategy, such as: These include, for example, the development capabilities of your team, the required device functionality, the importance of security, offline capability, interoperability, and so on. In the end, it's not just a question of what your app will do, but how you get it there.

Like Goldilocks, you may need to try a pair of beds that are too soft or too hard before you find the one that's just right. And sometimes there just is not a perfect choice. Each development scenario has its pros and cons, and these can be inline or disagree with your means. Unlike Goldilocks, there are no bears we are struggling with, and it is our intention that this article prevents you from burning your lips on hot oatmeal (well, figuratively).

While this article is generally about developing mobile apps, it is specifically designed for developers who want to build mobile apps that interact with Salesforce.com, Force.com, or Database.com. The Salesforce Mobile SDK currently supports the creation of three types of apps:
Native apps are specific to a specific mobile platform (iOS or Android) and use the development tools and language that each platform supports (for example, Xcode and Objective-C with iOS, Eclipse and Java with Android). Native apps look and deliver the best performance.
HTML5 apps use standard web technologies - usually HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS. This single-write approach, which can be run anywhere, creates cross-platform mobile applications that work across multiple devices. Although developers can create sophisticated apps using HTML5 and JavaScript alone, there are some important limitations at the time of writing, especially session management, secure offline storage, and access to native device features (camera, calendar, geolocation, etc.).
Hybrid apps allow embedding HTML5 apps in a thin native container, combining the best (and worst) elements of native and HTML5 apps.

Native mobile applications In short, native apps offer the best usability, the best features and the best mobile experience. There are a few things that you can only get with native apps: Multi-touch - double-tap, pinch spread and other connection UI gestures Fast Graphics API - The native platform gives you the fastest graphics, which is a big deal with a static screen with just a few elements or a lot of data a quick update.
Liquid animation - in the context of the fast graphics API is the ability to have fluid animation. This is especially important in games, highly interactive reports, or high-speed photo and sound conversion algorithms. Integrated Components - The device's camera, address book, geolocation, and other native features can be seamlessly integrated with mobile apps. Another important built-in component is encrypted memory, but more on that later. Ease of Use - The native platform is what people are used to. So if you add that familiarity with all the native features you expect, you'll have an app that's just easier to use.
Documentation - There are over 2500 books for iOS and Android development alone, with many more articles, blog posts, and detailed technical topics on sites like StackOverflow. Native apps are usually developed with an integrated development environment (IDE). IDEs provide tools for creating debugging, project management, version control, and other tools that professional developers need. While iOS and Android apps are developed using different IDEs and languages, there is a lot of parity in the development environments, and there is not much reason to be aware of the differences. Simply put, you are using the tools required by the device.
You need these tools because native apps are harder to develop. Likewise, the required level of experience is higher than in other development scenarios. They do not just cut and paste Objective-C and expect it to work. In fact, the technological know-how of your development team is an important consideration.
If you're a professional developer, you do not have to be sold on proven APIs and frameworks, painless special effects through established components or the benefits of having your code in one place. Let's face it, today an experienced native iOS or Android developer is a rock star and can make Rockstar claims.

While we got to know native apps from a development perspective, there is also the more important perspective: the end user. If you are looking for an app, you will find it in the shop. When you start the app, it will start immediately. Using the app gives you fast performance and a consistent platform look and feel. If your app requires an update, you will be notified. Native apps give you everything you expect from the company that built your device as if it were just meant to be. HTML5 Mobile Applications If you're new to mobile app development, you're late for the party.
For mobile web-based apps, however, we still celebrate like in 1999! Sure, browsers have gotten better in the last few years, but the underlying technology is not much different than if you feared the Y2K bug. But that can be a good thing. An HTML5 mobile app is basically a web page or series of web pages that work on a tiny screen. Therefore, HTML5 apps are device independent and can be opened with any modern mobile browser. And because your content is available on the web, it can be searched, which can be a big advantage depending on the app (for example, when shopping).
If you have experience in developing web apps, you will be taking HTML5 to the water like a duck. If you're new to web development, the technological bar is lower; It's easier to start here than with native or hybrid development. Unfortunately, every mobile device seems to have its own idea of what constitutes usable screen size and resolution, and therefore there is an added burden of testing on different devices.
The browser incompatibility is particularly common on Android devices, so the browser should be careful. An important part of the write-once-run-anywhere HTML5 method is that distribution and support is much easier than with native apps. Do you need to fix a bug or add features? Done and made available to all users. For a native app, there are longer development and testing cycles that the consumer typically needs to log into a store and download a new version to get the latest fix.

Over the past year, HTML5 has emerged as a very popular method for building mobile applications. Several UI frameworks are available to solve some of the most complex problems that developers do not want to reinvent. iScroll does a phenomenal job of emulating dynamic scrolling. JQuery Mobile and Sencha Touch provide sleek mobile components with hundreds, if not thousands, of plug-ins that range from merry-go-rounds to sophisticated controls. So, if HTML5 apps are easier to develop, easier to support, and able to reach the largest possible number of devices, where are these apps losing importance? We have already reviewed the main benefits of native development. We just want to repeat that you can not access native features on the device.
Users will not be familiar with the native look and feel or be able to use compound gestures that they are familiar with. But progress is being made on all fronts, and more and more features are always supported by browsers. The latest batch of browsers supports hardware-accelerated CSS3 animation features, offering smooth movements for slidable panels and transitions between screens, but even these can not match the performance and flexibility of native apps.
Today, it's just not possible to capture multi-touch input events (detect when there's more than one finger on the screen) or create path-style elegance with spin-out buttons and photos that float and then fall into place. Especially for mobile companies, however, there are significant limitations regarding offline storage and security. While you can implement offline features by caching files on the device, this is not a good solution. Although the underlying database may be encrypted, it is not as well-segmented as native keychain encryption, which protects every app with a developer's certificate.
When launching a web application with authentication from the desktop, users must enter their credentials each time the app is sent to the background. This is a lousy experience for the user. In general, implementing even trivial security measures on a native platform can be complex tasks for a mobile web developer. So if security is paramount, it can be the deciding factor on which mobile technology you choose.

Hybrid Mobile Applications Hybrid development combines the best (or worst) of the native and HTML5 worlds. We define hybrid as a Web application that consists primarily of HTML5 and JavaScript and then embedded in a thin native container that provides access to native platform features. PhoneGap is an example of the most popular container for creating hybrid mobile apps. In most cases, hybrid apps offer the best of both worlds. Existing web developers who have become gurus in optimizing JavaScript, using CSS to create beautiful layouts, and writing HTML code that works on any platform can now create sophisticated mobile applications that do not sacrifice native capabilities.
In some circumstances, native developers can write plug-ins for tasks such as image processing, but in such cases the devil is in the details. On iOS, the embedded web browser or UIWebView is not the same as the Safari browser. While the differences are small, they can cause debugging issues. For this reason, it pays to invest in popular frameworks that have taken all constraints into account. You know that native apps are installed on the device while HTML5 apps are on a web server.
So you'll wonder if hybrid apps store their files on the device or on a server. Yes. In fact, there are two ways to implement a hybrid app. Local - You can package HTML and JavaScript code in the mobile application binary file, similar to a native application. In this scenario, you use REST APIs to move data back and forth between the device and the cloud. Server - Alternatively, you can implement the full Web application from the server (with optional caching for better performance) by simply using the container as a thin shell over UIWebview.

Netflix has a really cool app that uses the same code base to run the UI on all devices: tablets, phones, smart TVs, DVD players, refrigerators, and cars. While most people have no idea and do not care how the app is implemented, you are interested in knowing that they can change the interface on the fly or perform A / B testing to determine the best user interactions. The core of decoding and streaming video are delegated to the native level for optimal performance.
So it's a fast, seemingly native app that truly offers the best of both worlds. Conclusion Mobile development is a constantly moving goal. Every six months, there is a new mobile operating system with unique features that can only be accessed with native APIs. The containers soon bring them to hybrid apps, with the Web making huge leaps every few years. Based on current technology, one of the scenarios described in this article will meet your needs.

Music Producer Training

Image source: http://www.mobo.com/sites/default/files/cm%20sounds%20comp%20d.jpg

Follow your dreams and start training for a career in music production today!

In order to become a music producer, one needs to have the musical inclination and learning by either self-study or formal education. This job is serious and it takes years of experience and enough exposure in the industry to be called a pro. Some folks may be stuck with the hopes of making it big one day because it is no joke if you really want to become a music producer and be among the big names out there.

It starts with learning the basics first, which is why education is an essential factor. Though having a degree in music is a plus factor, the technicalities of music production is often taught and learned through experience. A music producer doesn't become one until he's learned the technical side of the job. He may start as a music studio apprentice or intern while in college. Some producers start as sound engineers if they have the technical know-how upon their job application.

Learning the necessary skills in music production such as musical arranging, sound editing, sound mixing, studio and recording management, and many others, takes years. While some big names in the industry are quite young, they too have undergone training in order to become music producers. Their advantage is the advanced technology that made it easier for them to learn quickly and become exposed in the industry.

The younger generation of music producers have technology in their hands- from modern instruments to high-tech studio equipment. Don't be surprised to hear these folks singing or playing instruments during concerts and gigs. Nowadays it is normal for the younger generation of musicians and singers to become a music producers as well; and vice versa.

Do you have what it takes to become the next most sought-after music producer in the industry? Or are you simply stuck on wishful thinking and hoping that you'll be noticed one day?

Basic Requirements and Know-how's

Being a good musician is one of the top requisites in order to become a music producer. Some are good at keyboards or piano, some excel in guitars and other string instruments, while others are geniuses of brass and percussions. It is also essential that a music producer has experience in performing, improvising and instrumentation, as well as production control particularly in arranging and recording of music compositions.

Although you may not realize it, but some of the prominent music producers have classical music or conservatory education. And yet many end up in producing songs and albums for artists of various genres. This is another important quality that you should have if you want to become a music producer - flexibility.

What draws you to a film theatre? The Stars, the hype (created by media) or the film itself, or may be an illustration or a preview image of the film, which grabs your eyeballs at first and that instigate you to decide whether or not to watch the film. The towering images of your heartthrob star bravura on vinyl banners, billboards or dangling portrait behind buses are considered as the first look of the film and they are the iconic Film Posters. They are meant to attract, captivate and grab the attention of the viewer with the stunning illustration of the forthcoming movie. They are considered to be an important tool of film promotion and even in digital age they are absolutely incomparable.

Previously movie posters were considered to be an artists' illustration of a film. It is the artist who creates such posters by depicting the most suitable and attractive images from the film and express it on vinyl banners or window cards. However, the illustrator has to abide by certain parameters instructed by the film directors or producers (or sometimes even the actor/actress). Even now in the digital age where artist's paint brush is replaced with Photoshop software and digitized printers have taken over rotary printers, the trend of limited liberty of poster artists even continues. Whichever way it is viewed, the sphere of film promotion has broadened with TV channels, internet, promotional events, but the captivating ability of the smartest graphic posters enthralls the audience even today. It escalates their temptation for the film and they rush to book a ticket. That's where this promotional tool is still a winner in the age of satellites and ipods.

Original movie posters are not only a mere promotional tool, they are considered to be great collectible items as well. They hold a special mention in the history of films not only in Hollywood but all over the world. Before 1940, the hand drawn posters were maintained by producer's offices or the studios. Before the release of the film they were distributed from the exchanges to different cities all over the country. In some cases the big city theatre owners, visited the exchange offices, picked up the films and the posters just before the show. While in small towns, the theatres received their films and posters via the Greyhound buses and the posters used to dangle at the front or rear of the bus to promote them to the masses. The process continued and by 1960 the theatres started offering the collection of posters and soon they began to be considered as rare collectible items. Be it lobby cards, teaser posters, character posters or posters of any sizes, all iconic posters are great collections which worth in some cases, millions of dollars. However, recent film posters don't seem to hold such promises.

According to many notable film poster artists, the original movie posters don't appear inspiring with artistic waves. Whether it is the declining quality of the film or the artist's illustration in general, they are considered to be mediocre Photoshop jobs or just floating-head posters. However, in theatres & multiplexes a cinematic experience ceases unless the smell of pop corn mingles well with posters of starlets and sirens - even today.

MLA Paper Format How to Format a Paper in MLA Style

Image source: http://academictips.org/mla-format/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2013/03/mlasamplepaper2.png

When formatting your paper in MLA Style, you'll need to follow a series of rules that outline all aspects of the creation of the paper. Most people think of MLA Style when trying to determine how to cite sources used as references in the paper. However, MLA Style includes rules for many aspects of formatting the paper beyond citing sources. Here are 15 formatting tips you should follow when creating your MLA paper.

ALIGNMENT. Align the text flush left. If your word processor, such as MS-Word, has a "full justify" setting, which spreads the text and aligns it both left and right, do not use it. Leave the text ragged on the right side.

BINDING. MLA Style calls for binding the pages with a simple paper clip or spring clip. Do not use a staple or other permanent binding system, unless your instructor requests it.

ENDNOTES AND FOOTNOTES. You may use endnotes or footnotes with MLA Style, but they should only be used to further explain a term or a complex idea, beyond what you're able to include in the main text. Endnotes and footnotes should not be used to cite sources. Save those for the "Works Cited" page.

FONT. MLA Style calls for a 12-point font size, along with an easily readable font, such as Times New Roman.

HEADINGS. In MLA Style, headings and subheads that break up the text are optional. Check with your instructor before using them.

INDENTIONS. You'll need to indent the first line of any paragraph by one-half inch from the left margin. If you aren't using word processing software, indent by five spaces.

ITALICS. You should use italics for titles of longer works. MLA Style also allows use of italics within the body of the text for emphasis of a particular word or phrase, but use such items sparingly.

MARGINS. All four sides of the MLA paper -- top, bottom, right, and left -- require a margin of 1 inch. The only items that should appear outside the margins are the page numbers.

PAGE NUMBERING. Place the page number in the upper right corner of every page. Use Arabic numerals for the page numbers. The page number should appear one-half inch from the top of the paper and even with the right margin (1 inch from the edge of the paper). If you choose to use an optional title page, you should not number it. If you choose not to create a separate title page, instead including the title and other relevant information on the first page of the main text, you must use "1" as the number of that page.

PAPER TYPE. Use standard, 20-pound white paper that measures 8.5-by-11 inches.

PUNCTUATION. Follow all standard punctuation marks with just one space, including colons, commas, periods, and semicolons. Some instructors still prefer the old rule of using two spaces after periods that end sentences. MLA Style does allow some flexibility in punctuation when the instructor requests a change from the standard MLA Style.

QUOTATION BLOCKS. Whenever using a quotation that will be longer than four typed lines, set the entire quotation block apart by indenting it from the left margin 1 inch (or 10 spaces). Double-space within the quotation block. You do not need to use quotation marks with a quotation block.

SPACING. You'll need to double-space all of the text within the paper, except in rare special circumstances as directed by your instructor. All quotations, notes, and lists of works cited should be double-spaced.

TITLE. MLA Style doesn't require a separate title page. You can include the information used for the title on the first page of the paper, and begin the paper's main text on the same page. All text should be double-spaced on the first page. You can place the page number in the upper right corner. In the upper left corner, flush left and beginning at the margins, include your name, the instructor's name, the course, and the date. Then center the text for the title, mixing uppercase and lowercase letters. If you choose to skip the separate title page, you can begin the main text immediately after the title text.

UNDERLINING. With the third edition of the MLA Style Manual, the new guidelines have eliminated the use of underlining. Now italicize all published works, rather than using underlining.
