 For lists of short items, single-space each item with no space between items.
 Align text inside bullets.
 Use filled-in bullets.
To format numbered lists of short items, please do the following:
1. Single-space each item, with no spaces between items.
2. Type and align periods after the numerals.

To format bulleted and numbered lists with longer items, please do the following:
 For lists with longer items, single-space each item and put one line of space between
each item. See References section for another example.

are making this item longer so you can see how it should look. End all bulleted lines with
a period.

Figures
Figures and Tables may be placed within the text when appropriate or at the end of your
paper following the references.
More than one figure may be placed on a page.
The figure caption should be placed two spaces below the figure.
Leave at least four lines of space between figures if you include more than one per page.
If there is only one figure per page, it should be centered horizontally and vertically.
Please use colored figures where color significantly enhances the information (e.g. photos,
complex charts, and figures). However, if you can create the same effect in a gray scale
figure, please do so.

Please remember when planning your colored images that some colors are difficult to see
against certain background colors and should be avoided (yellow is the main colour to avoid
with a white background).
