The corner copy (at the right or center of the bottom of your invitation) is a great place to include your dress code. Writing on the paper invitation will ensure that your guests don’t miss it. This is a great option if your ceremony and reception are in the same place. If your ceremony and reception are in different locations, include the dress code on both the invitation and the reception card. That way, there's no confusion! This can also be helpful if your wedding and reception don't have the same dress code. For example, if your wedding is black tie but your reception is casual, mentioning that on the reception card lets your guests know they can change into more comfortable clothing for the reception if they want to. Including a simple enclosure card that accompanies your wedding invitation is a great way to let guests know about important guidelines, especially if your wedding invitation design doesn't easily accommodate extra information about the dress code.  If your wedding is outdoors during winter, for example, you could remind guests here that they’ll want to bring warm layers and appropriate footwear. You don't need to include the dress code on both the invitation and the enclosure card, just make sure it's clearly stated on one or the other. Include brief, straightforward phrasing like “black tie event” or “semi-formal” for your guests. Your guests can then research those terms for specifications if they’re not familiar with different dress codes, or you can include brief details next to the dress code. Wording for dress codes might be:  Black tie (tuxedos and formal gowns) Formal, black tie optional (suit and tie and dresses) Semi-formal (suit and tie and cocktail dresses) Cocktail attire (suits and party dresses) Beach or garden party attire (summer suits and summer dresses) Casual (button down shirts and slacks and summer dresses or skirts) Be sure to include the website address on your wedding invitation so that your guests know to check the website out. On the FAQ page of the website, you can include a simple question like, “What will I wear?” and answer it for your guests with several examples and outfit ideas.  Give visual guidance. Including a photo along with your dress code description is a great way to let people know what you expect. You could create a Pinterest board with different examples of the looks you’re going for to share with your guests. This is a great option for themed weddings where costumes are encouraged.

When sending a fax from a computer, you will have the option to use software that is installed on your computer or an online service.  Some operating systems come with programs that allow you to send faxes. Windows 7, for example, has a tool called Fax and Scan, which allows you to send a fax without a fax machine. In order to use computer software, you will need to connect your computer to a phone line. If this is not possible, try using an online service instead. There are several online services available, including MyFax, eFax and FaxZero. Some are free, some require a subscription or membership, and some services will ask you to pay per fax. Each program is unique, but you should see an option called "create new fax" or something similar. In order to fax documents using a computer, you will need to upload them to your message. You should see a button that says "upload documents" or something similar.  If you have electronic documents, you can search for them on your computer and attach them to your message. If you have paper documents, you will need to use a  scanner to digitize them. If you don't have a scanner, you can also  take a picture of the documents and either  email it to yourself or  upload the picture directly to your computer. Type a brief message to your recipient into the space provided on the screen, just as you would if you were sending an email. This will serve as your cover sheet, so there is no need to attach a separate cover sheet. You will also need to enter the recipient's fax number in the TO field. You may also be asked to type in a confirmation code to prove that you are not a robot. Once you have attached your documents, typed your message, and entered the recipient's fax number, hit the send button, and you are done.

One-sentence summary -- Choose a program. Open the program and create a new fax. Attach your documents. Enter the fax number and a message. Hit send.


Training a cat is slightly different from training a dog. A dog will learn tricks because he wants to please you; to train a cat, you need to respect his or her independence and provide enticing reasons for the cat to obey you. Pellets of dry cat food aren't going to work, and neither is excessive praise, which cats are less interested in than dogs. The trick is to use high-quality treats that your cat will desire, like catnip, pieces of fresh chicken, or tuna. Before you begin trying to teach your cat a new trick, make sure he is aware that you're trying to teach him something.  Hold the treat in front of your cat's nose so he understands that there is a potential reward waiting for him. Slowly move the treat in your hand over and behind his head. Continue to do this until your cat tips his head up and sits down on his bottom. Praise your cat and give him the treat as soon as he completes the "trick" of sitting down. If you don't have a clicker, you can use a retractable pen to make a similar noise. Give your cat a treat each time you use the clicker, so that he will come to associate the sound with getting a treat. Then use the clicker and a reward every time your cat accomplishes a new trick, like chasing a stick when you throw it. Eventually your cat will respond every time you throw the stick and click the clicker. Remember that your cat will get tired out. Aim for training and play sessions that run about 15 minutes, once or twice every day. As a cat owner, you are probably aware of your cat's unique personality traits and independent nature. Never try to force a cat to do a trick he or she doesn't want to do. Some cats will happily learn to use the toilet and flush it afterward, or perch on your shoulder while you walk around the house, while others prefer not to be bothered or touched. Learn to coexist with your cat so that you're both getting something out of the relationship.
