Use the textbook written by Todd Lammle, it makes CCNA look real simple.
Also go through the authorized study guide by Cisco Press. For me, it was a lot easier understanding this after going through Todd Lammle's book like two/three times.
When you feel confident enough (which should'nt take too long if you really put your mind to it) visit www.certcollection.org and check out the forum section. There you would find user experiences and of course some dumps (mind you, the dumps are not always accurate so i advise you just use this to test yourself extensively).
Good luck!!
I tell you, you do not really need to pay anyone a dime to mentor you in preparation for CCNA!!!

To date (for me), nothing beats Terre D'hermes!! Try it.

Cynthoney, I found this on the web- http://www.squidoo.com/happy-christian-family . It explains a lot.

Don't bother trying to understand them, i assure you you'll be happier for it! That's the golden rule!

Yes Ma.
I take it you were only airing the views of some "white women who prefer dogs".
And it's good to know you have a guy you love so much. It goes to say that although we can be the most misunderstood species on earth, there is something irresistable about us (i'm blushing).
Finally, for those "white women who prefer dogs":
Matthew 15:26 - "it is not good to take the children's bread and throw them to DOGS". How i'm loving that quote from the Bible! It's no use concealing a bad ulcer with a sweater cause though hidden, it's still there. In other words, we all know the truth!!!

It's very easy. Too much of everything is bad (they say).
A little to the right, a little to the left does the trick and we won't complain.
For example, you don't have to move ourightly from dressing nicely to dressing like a village girl!
And why on earth would you wanna smoke? Are you a chimney?

True, i've always wondered about this affinity for dogs by white women. Anyways, everything/anything happens our there. I suspect their men would not fall prey to their whims and caprices, thus the need for more willing servants.
Every complicated 'arithmetic' has a solution, you just need to find it.
Naturally, someone has to take the blame and it's a case of who's more disposed to take it.
I have found out that being unpredictable keeps your woman guessing, trust me, this has always worked (probably from the ancient days).
However, i do not subscibe to wife enslavement! And i am not a misogynist either.

Now back to the original post. I have a few comments:
1.Dogs do not have problems expressing affection in public. That’s why they are called dogs, they even get laid out there
2. Dogs miss you when you're gone. Of course, it’s a ‘bony affair’ You’ll soon be home to hand them the next ‘bone’
3. You never wonder whether your dog is good enough for you. Yeah, cause maybe it’s better
4. Dogs don't criticize your friends. It’s obvious they can’t talk, if they could!!!!
5. Dogs are very direct about wanting to go out. Men are very direct when they go in.
6. Dogs do not play games with you -- except fetch (and they never laugh at how you throw). Games are meant to exercise the brain.
7. Dogs don't feel threatened by your intelligence. Men don’t either.
8. You can train a dog and it will even get your newspaper. First sign of laziness!
9. Dogs are easy to buy for. Well, that’s why men are endangered species!
10. You are never suspicious of your dog's dreams. Quite true cause they dream small – like when’s the next meal?
11. Gorgeous dogs don't know they're gorgeous. It pays to know your worth
12. Dogs understand what 'no' means. Women always mean ‘yes’ when they say ‘no’.
13. Dogs don't need therapy to deal with their problems. Men have only one problem – women.
14. Dogs are happy with whatever you feed them. Yeah, men don’t want a repeat of the Garden of Eden episode.
15. You can force a dog to take a bath. It’s obvious man was given dominion over animals.
16. Middle-aged dogs don't feel the need to abandon you for a younger owner. That’s the reason you have to work real hard to stay relevant.
17. Dogs don't borrow your credit cards or cellular phone. It’s always the other way round.
18. Dogs don't weigh down your purse with their stuff. Point of correction, Men hate purses!
19. Dogs don't play video games. They do, they are P*rn stars in every sense.
20. Dogs don't drink beer or watch football. Men do, because they can’t drink women, and watching them can be quite a bore!
** Every man is INCOMPLETE until he marries, then he is COMPLETELY finished!

It's ok Cynthoney, maybe i was beginning to lose it myself. No vex.

1) Tenhap already exists free of any contamination from an unwholesome union (my opinion, someone may think differently) of Cyn + Dog, so there can't be another Tenhap!!

2) Cyn + Dog would be closer to CynthDog or HoneyDog

3) Though i don't hate dogs, i don't keep them because they can't take care of themselves , think like animals (which they are) and of course, nature/religion/history has always referred to them as lesser creatures compared to humans (now that should get someone thinking).

4) I know where my mama is

5) Dearest, ? I'll get to that if my busy schedule permits!!

Now, don't get me started. I usually do not subscribe to this trend of online bashing, but would not hesitate to step up to it!!!

Your guess is LOGICALLY wrong, !
Woman (maybe you) chooses to procreate with a dog (any breed), a child-puppy is born.
Logically, i do not fit into the equation in any way. Lion + Tiger = Tigon or Liger, Lion + Leopard = Leo (these much have existed before now). Cyn, + Dog = ? So perhaps we're gonna have a new one, who knows?

Cynthhoney, sorry no offence meant. I been just dey follow analyze the issue from one angle. Yet another angle is, , if women do really prefer dogs to some priced endangered species (men) i look forward to when they'll start prcocreating with them (dogs). I wonder how child-puppies would look!!!

@Ileke-idi
You see, exactly my point! I can't even remember what i had for dinner!!

Who, wetin, be this
This is about as interesting as what i had for dinner last night!!!

I'm not a Doctor, neither am i an Inspector. But my good people, isn't this enough food for thought for a lifetime?

Men could be more romantic if only they could find space in their hearts to trust women.
Now tell me, how do u go about that? How can u trust something that bleeds for 4 days and doesn't die?!! Simply amazing!!

So damn plenty of them!! Wouldn't want my kids to try them. Where do i start, ?

@Poster,
You may be right to a reasonable extent but:
Having worked in the same organization for some years before i left, i need point out the following:
1) While there you can use your idle time to advance your career
2) Under proper arrangement, you can have the time to attend to other concerns that can generate income (PP).
3) Finally, whatever time you spent there would be counted as 'post-qualification experience' when you have need to apply for another job!
Finally, everything for this life na 'how u position urself'!

Thanks to all that responded to my post.
I just picked up my passport today and was given 6 months multiple entry (visit) visa to the Uk.
This might be of help to others:
I submitted my application with the following docs-
1) Hotel reservation
2) Pay slips
3) Statements of accounts
4) Employment letter
5) letter of introduction from employer
6) Marriage cert
7)Children's birth certs
8 )Landed property docs
Regards to all!!

4teelaw:

sorry, dont know if this is coming in late.
1. i think you should apply to stay for about 2 weeks minimum
2. you can book hotel on your own, it doesnt matter how you do it, they wont ask please, dont get a sleazy hotel, a decent one should earn you respect ( i think!)
3. no need for flight reservation
4. make sure you have more than 2000 pounds equivalent in your account as this is obviously what you need to cover hotel flight and maintenance

the major problem in applying for visit visa is that general visitor form. be as truthful as possible, and do not withhold any information.

since you have been denied visa before, indicate it in the form and write the reference number., i will suggest you write a personal letter stating that you were once interested in studying in uk, but when you were refused you got a job and lost interest in studying. now you only want toa go and spend your annual vacation in uk sightseeing and relaxation. as long as you were not banned i see no reason why you cannot apply again.

most of all, pray for divine favour.

Many Thanks for your kind response.
I'll give it a shot.

@poosy_faka, I love the very last line!

As a National Officer or General Service staff, nobody's paying you dollars! You can only be paid in dollars if you are an international staff (say as a Nigerian, u are recruited in the Professional cadre to work in Ghana for example).

I had a similar experience in 2003. I paid in full for a car in April and it was to be delivered to me one week after. Things never quite worked out that way as the same kind of stories came up. After waiting for two months, i decided to take a trip to lagos to bring back the car myself (being that at this time, my car was said to have come in from cotonou and was in Lagos.) When i got to Lagos, the dealer (an old time friend of mine) went under and would not take my calls. Through the help of another friend, the car was traced to Owode where is was still parked with some parts taken off. Well, i had to return to the east and wait some more and after two weeks or so, the car was eventually delivered to me but not without the dealer cooking up some extra expenses amounting to well over 50k. I got my car and resolved to pay my friend (the dealer) in his own coin - "i go pay today, i go pay tomorrow". I eventually gave him 10k and that was it, i refused to pay a dime more!! I suppose your car's been bought, but perhaps the guy used part of the money to satisfy another customer. If my experience is anything to go by, you will eventually get the car but may have to pay 'a little extra'. Some of these dealers are not just trustworthy!!!

London, Stamford bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down, ! Sing with me!!!!!!!!

Not an option as far as i am concerned!!! Thank God my kids (by my rating) are damn smart!!

Dear all, i really want to know if registration under the Tier 4 of the Points based system is a prerequisite for ALL companies ( including IT training institutes) in the UK. To be specific, there are lots of companies in the UK that offer IT-related training (for shot durations like 1 week, 5 days, etc). Must they sponsor one under this system before one can apply for a UK visa to attend the training?
