  When I view my blog in Firefox lines of left-justified text often end with a hyphenated line break. This does not happen when viewed in Chrome.
  I would like to eliminate the automatic hyphening. Is there a way to adjust this in the WordPress settings?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there!

  To remove these hyphens, you’ll need the Custom Design upgrade. With this upgrade, paste the following code into your CSS editor:

  /* Remove automatic hyphens */
  p, ul, ol, dl, blockquote, .post-statement, .statement {
      -webkit-hyphens: none;
      -moz-hyphens: none;
      hyphens: none;
  }

  I hope this helps :)
