JH & Associates PRINTED IN THE When you put the pieces back together make the vessel stronger When you put the pieces back together make the vessel stronger Bởi: Joe Tye “The work of healing is like finding, sorting, and putting together the pieces of an ancient pot The work is often tedious, and some of the slivers may be sharp and dangerous The result, if you are patient, is a beautiful object, elegant in form and function, and elegant in the tales it tells of its creation If put together carefully, it will also be watertight and can be filled up with good things.” Richard A Moskovitz: Lost in the Mirror W Mitchell, author of the book It’s Not What Happens to You It’s What You Do About It, had his face and hands burned off in a fire after his motorcycle was run over by a truck After years of painful rehabilitation he built a new life, moved to Colorado, started a business, ran for mayor of his small town (campaign slogan: not just another pretty face), and bought an airplane with special controls that he could fly without use of hands One day his plane crashed on take-off; his back was broken and he was paralyzed And you think you’ve had some bad days! Mitchell is often asked whether, if he could go back and undo those two accidents and have his body restored but be the person he would have been had the accidents not happened, would he it? His answer is always an unequivocal No It’s the answer you almost always hear from people who have endured terrible adversity and emerged stronger as a result Like the broken ceramic pot described by Moskovitz, the glued together parts are perhaps not as physically attractive as the original, but the rebuilt pot is more beautiful at a deeper level, and is stronger and more functional If your world has turned upside down, imagine yourself as a pot that fell from the shelf and was broken What are the pieces that need to be reassembled? Your self-esteem? Your pride? Your balance sheet? Your career? Your relationships? As you reassemble this pot, how can you make sure that the inevitable scar tissue makes you stronger and protects you from future blows without making you brittle and insensitive? 1/1 TeAM YYeP G Digitally signed by TeAM YYePG DN: cn=TeAM YYePG, c=US, o=TeAM YYePG, ou=TeAM YYePG, email=yyepg@msn.com Reason: I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document Date: 2005.04.26 09:18:47 +08'00' [...]... are feeling, in the pit of your stomach But gnashing your teeth or wailing with closed eyes won’t win people to your side When in doubt, smile At least people will know you’re trying to reassure them, which in turn makes it possible for them to reassure you And it has the side benefit of reassuring you If you’re tough enough to put up a strong public face, you’re probably tough enough to handle the new... someone needed to step in right now Introduction What s an Accidental Leader?

Wassily Kandinsky, Composition VII, 1913. The State Tretyakov Museum, Russia © 2009 Russian Design Research Consultancy Lumiknows 6 Pioneer spirit of an artistic revolution, The Times, June 3, 2006 One evening in the summer of 1909, Wassily Kandinsky became aware of the power of abstract art after he saw “indescribable beauty with an inner glow” in a painting. “I was startled momentarily, then quickly went up to this enigmatic painting in which I could see nothing but shapes and colours and the content of which was incomprehensible to me.” The answer to the riddle came immediately: it was one of his own pictures leaning upside down against the wall. But from then on, Kandinsky was bewitched by the idea that “subject matter was detrimental to my paintings”. © 2009 Russian Design Research Consultancy Lumiknows 7 The Nine Dot Puzzle © 2009 Russian Design Research Consultancy Lumiknows 8 The Nine Dot Puzzle © 2009 Russian Design Research Consultancy Lumiknows 9 The Nine Dot Puzzle © 2009 Russian Design Research Consultancy Lumiknows 10 [...]...

Here are 10 commands you need to know, inside and out, when using the Cisco IOS. #1: The “?” It may seem entirely too obvious that you should know how to type ? to ask for help when using the Cisco IOS. However, the Cisco IOS is completely different from other operating systems when it comes to using the question mark (help key). As the IOS is a command-line operating system with thousands of possible commands and parameters, using the ? can save your day. You can use the command in many ways. First, use it when you don’t know what command to type. For example, type ? at the command line for a list of all possible commands. You can also use ? when you don’t know what a command’s next parameter should be. For example, you might type show ip ? If the router requires no other parameters for the command, the router will offer CR as the only option. Finally, use ? to see all commands that start with a particular letter. For example, show c? will return a list of commands that start with the letter c. #2: show running-configuration The show running-config command shows the router, switch, or firewall’s current configuration. The running-configuration is the config that is in the router’s memory. You change this config when you make changes to the router. Keep in mind that config is not saved until you do a copy running-configuration startup-configuration. This command can be abbreviated sh run. #3: copy running-configuration startup-configuration This command will save the configuration that is currently being modified (in RAM), also known as the running-configuration, to the nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM). If the power is lost, the NVRAM will preserve this configuration. In other words, if you edit the router’s configuration, don’t use this command and reboot the router–those changes will be lost. This command can be abbreviated copy run start. The copy command can also be used to copy the running or startup configuration from the router to a TFTP server in case something happens to the router. #4: show interface The show interface command displays the status of the router’s interfaces. Among other things, this output provides the following: • Interface status (up/down) • Protocol status on the interface • Utilization • Errors • MTU This command is essential for troubleshooting a router or switch. It can also be used by specifying a certain interface, like shint fa0/0. #5: show ip interface Even more popular than show interface are show ip interface and show ip interface brief. The show ip interface command provides tons of useful information about the configuration and status of the IP protocol and its services, on all interfaces. The show ip interface brief command provides a quick status of the interfaces on the router, including their IP address, Layer 2 status, and Layer 3 status. #6: config terminal, enable, interface, and router Cisco routers have different modes where only certain things can be shown or certain things can be changed. Being able to move between these modes is critical to successfully configuring the router. For example, when logging in, you start off at the user mode (where the prompt looks like >). From there, you type enable to move to privileged mode (where the prompt looks like #). In privileged mode, you can show anything but not make changes. Next, type config terminal (or config t) to go to global configuration mode (where the prompt looks like router(config)# ). From here, you can change global parameters. To change a parameter on an interface (like the IP address), go to interface configuration mode with the interface command (where the prompt looks like router(config-if)#). Also from the global configuration mode, you can go into router configuration using the router {protocol} command. To exit from a mode, type exit. #7: Where ? WHAT ?
