prayingforlove: afternoonsnoozebutton: Tip for all my student readers: if you’re too lazy to use a bibliography creator like NoodleBib or RefWorks, let Google generate your bibliography entries for you. All you have to do is google the article/book title in Google Scholar, click “cite” at the bottom of the search result, and copy either the MLA, APA, or Chicago cite into your word document.  This is literally how I got through college. More Google bollocks None of these examples would work at our firm. I can’t make sense of the ones above. Why is Jennifer Preston’s name cited differently by MLA and Chicago compared to David Goodman’s? Is there some kind of sexist rule? What day was the ninth volume of 2012 of The New York Times published? I’m not sure any of these conventions would abbreviate a newspaper article to just 9 (2012). I’m not insisting that our style is perfect, but it would allow the article to be found, provide fairness for male and female authors, and give a proper date, not just ‘9’.D. J. Goodman and J.

The intellectual integrity and infinite order of the universe obviously are vastly greater than man. Man is an invention within it. What one did about this understanding would have to be through design. I decided I must not be a persuader, but a doer.

One out of eight is a majority in Google-land Here’s how Lucire looks via Sucuri, referred by a friend of mine. Given that Google is the only one that thinks we’re dodgy, why on earth do so many sites rely on it, when seven others think we’re fine?
