 heading.
 Begin your introductory material before the first section heading.

\begin_layout Itemize
The tablenotes or figurenotes environments may be used below tables or figures,
 respectively,
 as demonstrated below.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
If you have difficulties with the mathtime package,
 adjust the package options appropriately for your platform.
 If you can't get it to work,
 just remove the package or see our technical support document online (please refer to the author instructions).
\end_layout

\begin_layout Itemize
If you are using an appendix,
