Changing The Face of The Trucking Industry

Changing the face of the trucking industry is a huge task. If we all just do a little, the change can more easily take place.

 Truckers are seen thru a lens that produces negative opinions which are held commonly about drivers and the industry.

It's based on old movies, biased new reports, ex-trucker wives who were mistreated or abandoned and the worse of drivers being highlighted for various reasons.

While those individuals in who have made poor choices and caused problems or pain for others.  The number of those types of drivers are a fraction of the 3 plus million truck drivers.

Never the less, the perceptions they help produce have a huge impact on the quality of lives of other the truckers and their families.

It affects how we are viewed and treated sometimes on the highways, at shippers and even at some companies.

That being the case, it has an indirect impact on the trucking industry as a whole.

If you look closely to the paragraph above, you will realize that everyone connected to the trucking industry including officers and four wheelers stand to gain by treating drivers better and seeking to improve the industry.

I will elaborate on less obvious reasons why when I break down how you or your segment of the industry can contribute positively to the changes that I desire to see.

What can you do to help facilitate the change

Trucking Companies - These drivers are not robots. They have families and they have lives. Treat the drivers the same way you would want to be treated if you were a driver. Focusing entirely on the bottom line will only be counter productive to your desired result.

If you want to increase driver loyalty, driver retention, better performance and work ethic, treat drivers like your would want to be treated. Increase your profit margins by doing things efficiently including hiring competent people in the office. If family or friends that are employed can't cut it then cut them.

Tell drivers what you expect and when they don't perform after proper warning fire them until you get a good team so that all driver on your team are treated like a winning team member. (That's what you will have)

This doesn't mean not to give drivers with less than perfect records a chance. These people could very well end up being your best employees. When people prove themselves in an interview give them a chance to prove themselves on the job, don't assume from 10 incident on the record or criminal report that a person is not suitable for a position with the company.

Dispatchers - Treat drivers like you would want to be treated if you were a driver. If a driver is responsible and dependable don't give him fabricated appointment times.

You need to care about your job performance just like the drivers need to. I know some of you especially at large companies are college students. Please take your job serious while you are working, you are supposed to learn that as part of your college experience, I don't care what your are going to college for. Always give your employer at least 100 percent, that means trying to be effective with the logistics and relationship building aspect of the job. Thanks.

D.O.T. - Most of us know that you are here to do a job. I talk about it here. Be careful not to take out the bad attitude of the clown of the day on another driver. You know what challenges we face at the shippers and receivers and that we have families at home so do what you feel is right when you are faced with decisions. Most drivers appreciate the job you do and realize that there will always be a few who go to unnecessary extremes to satisfy their own personal needs, please don't be one of them! By the way this is something that needs to change, this driver fatique enforcement checklist is not right. Thanks

Media We understand that you are interesting mostly in ratings first. Keep in mind that the perception you create in the mind of your viewers affects the lives of people.

Take time to publicize many of the positive stories about truckers. There are angles to take to make the story interesting if you have the skills and creativity to do it. Many people would be interested in the details of a trucker's life. You can showcase exceptional drivers and hero's of the highway.

Don't just put the few weirdo's and criminal out of the 3 million drivers on the top news story.

When you cover accidents don't emphasize the truck or the truck driver when you know and have information that the truck was not at fault of the accident.

Too many people take what you report in a literal sense and use it for a foundation from which to think. are Many don't look at the big picture or read between the lines, they take things literal and on face value.

This is why what you feed them has such an impact on what they believe, if you care about people, be more balanced.

You have people scared to drive beside us, wives and overly anxious about their husbands on the road and drivers and the general public has false beliefs about who we are.

By creating these poisonous foundations in the thought process you are crippling the lives of many people and believe it or not you too will be effected eventually as long as you live and interact along with the rest of society.

Let's be more fair and not be misleading in the stories that so many people's lives are shaped by.

Truck drivers are the safest drivers on the road, have less than accidents than cars, and cause less of the accidents that trucks are involved in.

Many of the trucks that you show are involved in accidents for trying to accommodate the poor driving skills or dumb choices by the person driving the car. Include that in some of your reports. Thanks

Well that's enough for now!

I’m going to cut to the chase here. Why should Valentine’s Day be the only day where you show your significant other how much you love and care for them? Why shouldn’t you do it each and every day of the year – making sure you take a little time to remind them of how much they mean to you?

There’s really no reason why you can’t make every day Valentine’s Day. It doesn’t take too much effort, and by getting started today with a rotuine that you can carry throughout the year, you’ll find that the momentum of the day can – and will – last all year long.

Here are just a few of the little things you can do to make February 14th last far longer than just 24 hours:

Start and End the Day with a Connection

When you wake up in the morning, let them know you’re happy to see them or hear their voice. Before you go to bed, remind them that once more. There’s nothing quite like reminded how special you are to start and end your day. And it takes just a little bit of awareness to make such a huge difference in someone’s life. Why shouldn’t that difference be made for that special someone in your life?

Give Hugs

Again, something that takes very little to make happen but can mean so much to the recipient. A hug reinforces that physical connection you have with your partner, and it can linger all day long. Whether your partner needs a hug to lift their spirits or just as a gesture of how much you care about them, a hug is one of the best ways you can make that Valentine’s Day feeling last all year long.

Simple Gestures

Things like writing a love note in their lunch kit or sending an email that lets them know you’re thinking of them is a simple gesture that can go a long way. Keep some Post-It notes in a kitchen drawer along with pens of different colours so you’ve got them at the ready, and bookmark an eCard service in your Internet browser so that should the moment strike you, you can quickly send off a message to your sweetheart.

Say the Words

Whether those words are “I love you” or “You’re the best”, it really doesn’t matter. Sometimes it’s just great to hear them, especially if they seem to appear out of the blue. By starting to “ritualize” this sort of thing, you’re setting yourself up for a long-lasting habit that will level up your love life and keep the home fires burning throughout the year.

Reflection Leads to Recognition

Taking the time to journal how you feel is an important way to not only express how you feel about someone, but to foster expressing those feelings to them on a daily basis. It’s in those moments of capturing your thoughts in a journal of some sort that the gratitude really resonates, giving you further fuel to make sure that Valentine’s Day isn’t the only day where you let your love one know how much they mean to you.

In Closing

As you can see, there’s absolutely no reason why you can’t make Valentine’s Day last the whole year through. You just need to take the time to make it happen. You’d be surprised as to how much your productivity and zest for life will increase by showing those you love how much they mean to you more than just one day per year.

The Lima Beads Blog News, Contests, Fun & More

Interview with the Lima Guy

Posted by Steve on January 16 at 02:00 pm

Interview with LimaMeet the man behind the mittens in our exclusive interview with the Lima Guy on The Fresh Daily. I sat down with Lima between photo shoots for a candid chat–check out the transcript below, and ask your questions in the comments!

Steve: Thanks for joining me today.

Lima: No problem, I was in the area.

Steve: The world wants to know… what have you been up to lately?

Lima: Have you seen our ad schedule this Winter? Yeesh, it’s been photo shoot after photo shoot. Have you seen me on the home page? We’ve got a lot lined up for the new year!

July 2005

July 2005

Steve: Yes, yes we do… can you tell me a little more about your early career with Lima Beads?

Lima: I started in July ’05 for the fall promotion that year. As you can see in the picture, I sure had a lot of fun playing in those leaves!

Steve: OK, tough question: gemstone beads, or freshwater pearls?

Lima: Well, I AM a gemstone bead myself… so I’m biased. But what the heck, I’m going to go with Freshwater Pearls because of the new colors we just added. I pocketed a couple of loose semi-rounds that were on the floor yesterday–talk about gorgeous.

Steve: You have pockets?

Lima: Never mind.

Steve: Let’s talk tunes. What’s on your iPod?

Lima: Right now I’ve got a mix of Al Green, The Mittens, Green Day, and the California Raisins. In fact, the California Raisins inspired me to get into the modeling business.

PerformingSteve: Speaking of modeling, what was your first gig?

Lima: I did a couple of cereal commercials, your basic low-budget starter jobs. Gotta get your name out, you know? I had a short stint on American Idol season 3, but Simon said I sounded like a green beluga whale with a cold. That guy is ruthless! Look at me now, Simon!

Steve: Can I ask you a personal question? What’s under those white mittens?

Lima: Fingers, what else!

Steve: Thanks for joining us. Can you stick around the blog if the readers have some questions?

Lima: No problem! I’ll be happy to answer more questions in the comments!

Diamonds & Rust Myrtle the Turtle

About this design:

This necklace came about thanks to Martha (Sunny Chick) who told me about this great turtle pendant she bought from our own Lynn G! Of course I had to have one too as she (Myrtle) was so cute! The purple lentil beads I had not had a clue what to do with and the beads that I thought that would work with Myrtle didn't. The small quartz nuggets were an odd purple and part of a leftover from a redo necklace. The rest of the beads I have had and were odds and ends or just forgotten about. I like this piece because it reminds me of the pet turtle I had as a child that lived in a little plastic turtle aquarium with a green plastic palm. tree.

Google Sends Warning For Article Marketing

November 24  |  Link Building  |   Ryan Clark

Are you link building via article marketing for your main source of links? You might not be as safe as you think. While I’m aware I’m spouting and promoting fear a little bit here, I do have my ear to the ground when it comes to this topic. Clearly the majority of companies out there are pumping out ultra low quality content. That’s not the only problem though, everyone is also gaming anchor text and that’s what Google hates…a lot.

I like the fact that Google would discourage this because too many sites are way too shitty to deserve a top ranking spot. Google’s guidelines when it comes to links makes it pretty clear that link schemes are going to cause you trouble, and most article marketing falls under their definition.

You might remember the violation emails Google sent out regarding unnatural links detected pointing to a site. While it’s a very rare occurrence, the possibility is a reality and something you’ll see pop up in Google’s webmaster help central. I just came back from a trip and while catching up on the latest posts on my trip, I discovered this instance that caught my eye.

Meanwhile I submitted a reconsideration request for my other sites that had the same -50 filter, some which had zero inorganic links. In the E-mail I received I was told that I needed to remove any “inorganic links” that I could and if I couldn’t remove them I needed to create a list of the links I couldn’t remove.

It’s important to keep in mind that this person is most likely running a bunch of thin affiliate sites and they were also doing user profile spam. A lot of people think that links can never have a negative effect on your rankings, but those people haven’t been around long enough. Even the link schemes definition from Google clearly states that “This is in violation of Google’s Webmaster Guidelines and can negatively impact your site’s ranking in search results“. That alone should end the debate.

If the post is true, it’s still a rare case and, in my ninja opinion, pretty difficult to get in trouble with links. Pretty much every top niche is dominated by unethical link building practices and it has been that way for the last decade. We, of course, do a lot of high quality content marketing and I’m not claiming to be pure by any means, just be careful out there. That statement is also for those companies who are just blind hiring an SEO to get mass links.

Fortune 500 Company + SEnuke = Disaster

July 3  |  Black Hat  |   Ryan Clark

Before we get into this quick post I’ll state this is in by no means a bash to SEnuke, but more of a lesson when hiring an in-house SEO. A lot of the link building tactics used in the software are 100% link schemes, and are going to eventually get you in trouble. However, it is also in the user(think guns don’t kill people, people with guns..) to make it black hat. You could most definitely use it for legit purposes in small doses. But for the most part, this software spams forums, blog comments and web 2.0 profiles. It also now does link wheel “strategies”, and by looking at the diagram below, what do you think of;

If that’s not a visual definition of a link scheme. So in came an email from a fortune 500 company asking for help when their homepage dipped out of the SERPs, and a whole ton of their target kw’s were now bouncing around the 50-70 range. Not good right? Naturally my first step was to run a link report and see what was going on. I nearly spat my coffee all over the keyboard with what I saw after my Link Research Tools (shameless plug for Cemper here :) report finished.

So what happened? This company is an old school one, and they for so many years just relied on a webmaster, basic on page SEO and the natural links they received. After a few of the higher ups went to a conference and got all jazzed on online marketing, they decided to put together an in-house team. This lead to someone fresh out of university being picked up and hired, along with 4 other graduates from the same school/marketing program.

Perhaps a risky move, but the university has a great reputation, and the fresh hires were cheaper than some one with a lot of real world experience. Perhaps the first mistake, but not necessarily a bad move. The problems arose once the team decided to implement SEnuke as their link building platform and methodology.

After learning about link wheels, profile links and all the other “techniques” out there they went to town with this software. After 8 months there were nearly a dozen link wheels setup with spun content, but the worst part, the thousands and thousands of forum spam, blog comment and 2.0 profile links. To back that up, only 6-10 different money keyword anchor text were thrown in the mix. This got real obvious real quick.

So a year later and some very major problems are now a reality in this companies life. The clean up process is going to be down right awful, and guess who gets the clean up work duty? No me, that’s for sure! We’ll be taking their link building efforts into 2012 with awesome content, resources, web apps, mobile apps and beyond. Large companies have huge pull and don’t need to resort to anything other than natural link creation, so let this be a warning to all.

Be careful who you hire, don’t use questionable tactics and do things right if you want to stick around longer than a year in the SERPs. Google is going to be really focusing on SERP quality over the next year (and beyond), so now is the time to go over everything and make sure you’re squeaky clean.

Paid Links in 2011

March 13  |  Black Hat  |   Ryan Clark

I never thought I’d be writing another post about paid links, especially in 2011. Talk about beating a dead horse, resurrecting it and then beating it to death again. You can find our team helping people for free on Google’s Webmaster Central, and it is the reason I’ve decided to blab on the topic. Almost on a daily basis we’re answering topics where the webmaster either has no idea that buying links are a no-no, or they’re not checking who they’re hiring. I could have stated a third option, but I just cannot imagine people are dumb enough to buy the kind of paid links we’re seeing. I’m talking the usual lame blog with dozens of unrelated anchor text links all over the place..footer, blogroll and in-content text ads. A blog about potty training doing a post on car insurance…as Gob from Arrested Development would say, “Come On!

The latest thread I posted on was from a printing company in the UK. They made a post stating that they’ve lost most of their traffic over night. Imagine that folks. How would you feel if you had to come back tomorrow morning and tell your staff that business is going to get really rough. It would be even worse if you had to start laying off workers because of the massive monetary hit your company is about to take. Don’t let this be you folks, as well let this be a lesson to not keep all your eggs in one basket. Google is a volatile lover, and that’s why our company builds relationships on line…not just links.

If you’ve hired a link building consultant in the past year and haven’t bothered to look deep into the links you’re getting, do so right now! If you’re seeing a whole lot of lousy links then you need to jump on that asap. You wouldn’t believe the amount of potential clients that come to us in major trouble from past people hired. They were either burned hard and lost most of their business, or they were teetering on the edge of getting caught.

In this day and age, if your top anchor text count is for a specific search term you’re targeting and not your company/brand name, then I’d be a little worried. Google has been cracking down more and more, and they’ve even stated recently that major changes are coming to the way they view links. No one really knows what that entails, but I can imagine they’ll start looking closer into “natural” link profiles. A common factor in the clients we help get out of a penalty is the fact that their top 10 used anchor texts were obvious links to game the system.

If you’re going to still buy links against the advice of the Google gods, then at least do it smart. Link networks are always lousy and obvious, links from unrelated sites are obvious, and links in the sidebar or footer are just plain silly…I’m getting tired of cleaning up paid links for people!

Peace out

20,000 Links For $250 Please – What The F$%!

January 25  |  Black Hat  |   Ryan Clark

For those of your who enjoyed taking a gander at the hilarious post we wrote in November titled “Can I Get 5000 Links Please“, I bring you an even better one. The freelancer sites are littered with the craziest link building offers one can find. No legit company in the world would be out trying to snag deals like this, but instead these are affiliate marketers going after spam links. This one in particular caught my attention on Twitter and made me almost choke on my coffee here.

The request is for 20,000 links in about 10 days time….riiiiiight. They also state they all have to be dofollow and white hat techniques only. Oh an the best part, they only want to pay a max of $250 USD. While the offer is getting bids from the usual outsourcing companies, there’s no way this guy is going to have his project met in a white hat method. I cannot stress this enough to some of the big brands out there that come to us wanting something like this.

I feel sorry for Matt Cutts and his team having to combat the tens of thousands of websites out there trying to link spam like this, so I’ll be sure to buy him a beer the next time I see him. Keep in mind when it comes to getting a lot of links, do it over time, do it right and don’t spam. We are firm believers of quality over quantity, so build strong relationships on line and the good links will follow over time…not 10 days. The freelancer link builders are only going to get your company caught up in an anchor text filter, or even worse, complete de-listing from Google.

WP Original Source Plugin

January 24  |  Wordpress SEO  |   Ryan Clark

We’ve been having problems with a site scraping out content (, and we’re not having any luck contacting them. Their web host won’t do anything, we’ve already resorted to replacing images to naughty ones, but alas no luck.What’s even worse, is sometimes the content is outranking our site, and even their blog is showing up in Google Blog Search instead of ours…frustrating to say the least.

Google recently launched two new meta tags for content publishers, and now there is a WordPress plugin for it! Thanks to the handy coding work of Thibaut Dancette from who published this handy plugin for us WP users. You can grab WP Original Source HERE, and it installs easily without any modification.

I’ll update this post later to report back on how it’s effectively working, so keep your fingers crossed for us. Content scraping is more rampant than ever so it’s nice to know there are efforts on Google’s end to help clean up the junk. If their webspam team is listening, I’d love to see a anti-scraping feature built into Feed Burner to help combat these problems.

Link Request Email How NOT To

November 23  |  Black Hat  |   Ryan Clark

I doubt the SEO world needs another post about link request emails, let alone get into the implications of mass link exchanges from homepages(or any page for that matter). I’m just winding down from a long day of building relationships for my clients the proper way, low and behold this email came into our inbox.

My name is Abigail Cox, Web Marketing Consultant. Ive greatly enjoyed looking through your site and I was wondering if you’d be interested in exchanging links with my website, which has a related subject. I can offer you a home page link back from my related websites all in google cache and backlinks which are:

cleanprotalk(dot)com PR4

If you are interested, please send me the following details of your site:

I’ll add your link as soon as possible, in the next 24 hours. As soon as it’s ready, I’ll send you a confirmation email along with the information (TITLE and URL) regarding my site to be placed at yours.

I hope you have a nice day and thank you for your time.

Kindest regards,

Web Marketing Consultant

I didn’t bother to block out the name or email address mainly because I don’t care, and there’s nothing really to protect here. While the only positive thing I can get out of her tactics was coming across as a woman. I instantly thought of a sexy web marketer out there thinking my site was hot stuff. Sadly, when you look at the CleanProTalk website you’ll see about 100 links in the blogroll which blows my mind a little…I didn’t think they’d net that many link exchanges, but then again it could be all her own sites.

So for those companies out there who don’t have a marketing team, and if an email like this somehow tricks your webmaster, you should train him or her to sniff these out. The CleanProTalk site in question should have easily been spotted as pure junk not only from the 100+ blogroll links, but at a quick glance you can see from my totally 31337 Gimp skills the crap that’s right in front of your eyes;

– so we have default WordPress sub-heading still in place

– duplicate content stolen from article sites without even linking back

– the 100+ sidebar links

– they didn’t bother to change the default category name

– adsense which tracks back to all their other sites on the web

So what should a link builder do to obtain a link? Well, in my opinion, you should first build your business relationships online and not even bother to do any link exchanges in the first place. There are so many bloody emails like this going out thanks to software and cheap ass outsourcing that you barely have a chance to get your legit message through. We’re living in a digital, social web and there are powerful tools such as Twitter, Linkedin and Facebook at your disposal. It takes time to network with real people, but if you do it right it will pay off in the end. Stay away from lousy sites, blogrolls and link pages because you’re only going to suffer in the long run!

Siegel presents five auctions in three days; sales include Pony Express, Jenny Invert

June 06, 2014 10:45 AM

  • The June 26 Rarities of the World auction by Robert A. Siegel in New York City will include this position 73 example of the 1918 24¢ Jenny Invert airmail error.

  • The 1942 6¢ orange airmail envelope manufactured in error with blue paper will be offered by Robert A. Siegel after being held by its discoverer for 70 years.

  • This 1860 westbound Pony Express cover with free franking by Sen. Milton S. Latham was delayed by the Paiute Indian War and was carried with military escort. It will be offered during the June 24 auction by Robert A. Siegel in New York City.

  • One of only two covers known franked with the 10¢ red and blue Greenville, Ala., provisional stamp will be auctioned by Robert A. Siegel June 24 in the first sale of the Ralph Brandon collection of Confederate States.

  • This 1861 olive yellow 5¢ Thomas Jefferson stamp with grid cancel is among the many attractive offerings in the selection of the Wade Saadi collection that will be auctioned by Siegel June 25.

  • From the Daniel H. and Marcel V. collection of birds of the world, to be auctioned by Siegel June 26, comes this example of Canada’s 1959 Seaway invert.

During a three-day stretch in the firm’s Rarities Week, Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries is presenting five very distinct sales.

The June 24-26 auctions will offer the New Helvetia collection of Western Express and California mails, Confederate States’ postmasters provisionals in part 1 of the Brandon collection, a part of the Wade Saadi “Struck on Stamps” collection, the Daniel H. and Marcel V. collection of birds of the world, and the 2014 Rarities of the World sale.

Each sale is presented in individual full-color catalogs that can be browsed at, or downloaded from the website as PDF documents.

The sales are taking place in the Siegel galleries at 60 E. 56th St. in New York City, with online bidding, phone bidding and absentee bidding available.

The 2014 Rarities of the World sale will take place June 26 and will include some familiar rarities along with others rarely seen.

The auction begins with a selection of autographs and free franks, including an outstanding cover bearing the signature free frank of the legendary frontiersman Davy Crockett during his tenure as a United States congressman from Tennessee.

The extensive range of U.S. stamp and postal history material on offer includes an example of the 1918 24¢ Jenny Invert airmail error (Scott C3a) from position 73 of the discovery pane of 100.

The stamp is lightly hinged, with deep rich colors and choice centering, according to the auction description, which also notes “possibly a small thin spot but not visible to the eye or in fluid.” A 1970s certificate noted a “small thin spot,” which Siegel discloses but adds that its own examination shows no evidence of a thin.

The stamp, encapsulated by Professional Stamp Experts, which graded it as fine-very fine 75, is listed with the 2014 Scott catalog value of $450,000.

As reported by Jay Bigalke in the June 2 Linn’s, this sale will also offer a full pane of six of the upright variety of the 2013 $2 Jenny Invert, purchased in a post office earlier this year by David and Gail Robinson. This first example of a full pane of six to be offered at public auction is listed by Siegel with an estimate of $40,000 to $50,000.

One rarity in the sale has been held by its original discoverer for 70 years and is now heading to the auction block for the first time.

Robert B. Hopler was 12 years old when he bought the 6¢ airmail envelope in the Madison, N.J., post office in 1944.

Recognizing its unusual character, he followed advice to have it expertized by the Philatelic Foundation three years later, and obtained a new Foundation certificate authenticating it in 2013.

The envelope has been in his possession since the day he bought it, Hopler told Linn’s.

Andrew Titley of Siegel told Linn’s that the firm has sold only one other example of the error envelope (Scott UC6a), and is now unaware of that envelope’s whereabouts.

“This rarity has been missing from all of the prominent collections of Postal Stationery formed in recent memory, including Floyd, Saddleback, Wanamaker, Schiller and Scarsdale,” Siegel stated in the auction description.

The unused airmail envelope offered in the auction is described as having a few “inconsequential” slight vertical creases, and is listed by Siegel with the 2014 Scott catalog value of $15,000.

The rarities in the June 26 auction also encompass U.S. back- of-the-book stamps, U.S. possessions (including two Hawaii Missionary stamps and other issues), classic Canada proof sheets, worldwide stamps and covers, and more.

The first sale in the current series opens June 24 with a selection of Western Express covers, followed by 1860-61 transcontinental Pony Express covers and stamps, 1862-65 Virginia City Pony Express material, British Columbia and Vancouver Island mails, and concluding with numerous California covers and foreign mail covers.

Four pages in this catalog are devoted to a single item, a June 3, 1860, westbound Pony Express cover franked by Sen. Milton S. Latham (1827-82), described as “Delayed due to Paiute Indian War, and carried with military escort.”

The cover is one of four recorded westbound Pony Express covers delayed by the 1860 war, according to Siegel, and one of the two that carry Latham’s free frank.

The cover bears a clear strike of the running pony oval date-stamp and the senator’s handwritten free frank across the top. It is offered with a presale estimate of $75,000 to $100,000.

The catalog for part 1 of the Confederate States collection of Ralph Brandon (1931-2012) serves as a history lesson for the many typographed or lithographed adhesive stamps and printed envelopes locally created to accommodate the need for prepaid postage before the Confederate general-issue stamps became available.

The catalog for the June 24 sale includes a list of the 88 post offices represented by stamps or envelopes in this sale, complete with Scott catalog numbers and the names of the issuing postmasters.

A highlight of the collection is one of only two recorded covers franked with the 10¢ red and blue Greenville, Ala., provisional stamp (Scott 33X1). The 1862 cover is addressed to D.B. Taylor of the Pensacola Rangers at Richmond, Va. Formerly in the collections of Seebeck, Caspary and Lilly, the cover is offered with an estimate of $47,500.

The Wade Saadi collection of postmarked stamps is described by Charles Shreve as containing “a dazzling group of cancellations of all kinds — different colored inks, unusual ‘killer’ designs, straightline markings, foreign postmarks, pictorial fancy cancellations and private express company datestamps, to name a few of the broad categories.”

The stamps in the June 25 sale are all classic U.S. issues of 1851 to 1868. Among the choice items are three used examples of the 1860 blue 90¢ George Washington (Scott 39), and one of the scarce blackish violet variety of the 1863 24¢ George Washington (78c) marked with a neat seven-bar grid cancel.

The sale also includes several color varieties of the 1861 5¢ Thomas Jefferson, but just one of the elusive olive yellow shade (Scott 67b), and it’s a particularly nice and sound example. Boldly struck with a grid cancel and barely touched by a red cancel at top, this stamp is listed with its $4,000 Scott catalog value.

The Daniel H. and Marcel V. collection of birds of the world is an extensive selection of material featuring birds in the design, including proofs, essays, imperforate stamps and more.

A wide range of appealing errors in the June 26 auction includes two familiar key issues: Western Australia’s 1879 2-penny lilac Swan error of color (Scott 31a) and Canada’s 1959 5¢ Seaway Invert (387a).

The Swan error has a large part of its original gum and is uncharacteristically well centered, according to the catalog description. It is listed with the 2015 Scott catalog value of $20,000.

The Seaway invert is described as wonderfully well centered, with rich colors and free of faults. It is listed in the auction catalog at $12,000, the 2014 Scott catalog value.

With its focus on birds, this sale also includes a number of U.S. federal duck stamp singles, multiples and errors.

For additional information about any of these sales, visit, or contact Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries, 60 E. 56th St., New York, NY 10022.

A Template-Based Approach to XML Parsing in C++

Using the Xerces library and a little C++ code, you can parse an XML file to get only the information you need as easy-to-handle objects.
Mapping XML Tags to Domain Objects

The next aspect of our XML-parsing framework is converting XML tags into domain-related objects that can be used within the application by using templates and a loose definition of policy classes.

The XMLDomainMap template accepts a single template parameter, called an XMLNode. The interface for the domain-mapping object is as follows:

The XMLNode acts as both a leaf and a root in a tree structure that aggregates its children as a subtree. The XMLNode's interface is:

The key here is the design of the public interface of the object. There are several operator overloads, specifically operator equals (operator==), operator not equals (operator!=) and the assignment operator (operator=). The benefit to this is the object now can be used with many standard template library (STL) containers and algorithms, which allows for the use of advanced features with the C++ language.

Linking our Classes Together—An XML Façade

Thus far, the focus has been on individual classes and describing the templates that have been created for our XML-processing framework. The next step is to link the disparate interfaces together and make them appear to function as a single cohesive unit by using the façade design pattern.

The façade design provides a simple and elegant way to delegate parsing functionality from an outside client to the internal policy class that will be used for performing the parsing.

In Design Patterns, the authors define the intent as to “Provide a unified interface to a set of interfaces in a subsystem. Façade defines a higher-level interface that makes the subsystem easier to use.”

The XMLProcessor is the façade that has been created. It is defined with the following interface:

Once all the source has been written, an XML file and a test client will be needed to run our sample.

Parsing an Actual XML File

The following simple XML file, showing the basic layout of a customer record with a name and account number, has been created to illustrate the simplicity of using the framework:

<?xml version="1.0"
    <name>John Doe</name>

For now, create this file with a text editor and save it as MyXMLFile.xml.

The Public Interface—Writing the Client Application

The framework's functionality will be used as a mechanism to provide a succinct interface to the client application.

The primary methods that a client of the framework would make use of can be described with an actual, albeit small, sample of C++ source code:

// ---------------------------------------
//  Sample source for parsing an XML doc
// ---------------------------------------
#include "XMLProcessor.hpp"
#include "XMLDomainMap.hpp"
#include "XMLSAXParser.hpp"
#include "XMLNode.hpp"
#include "XMLCommand.h"
#include "XMLSAXHandler.hpp"
#include "XMLSAXErrorHandler.hpp"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
using namespace XML;
// Let's get the ugly stuff out of the way first
typedef XMLSAXHandler<XMLDomainMap<XMLNode> >
typedef XMLSAXErrorHandler ERRORHANDLER;
typedef XMLProcessor<PARSER> XMLEngine;
// Create a basic test client
int main(void)
    // Define a string object with our filename
    std::string xmlFile = "MyXMLFile.xml";
    // Create an instance of our XMLFactory
    XMLEngine parser(xmlFile);
    // Turn off validation

    // Parse our XML file
    // Get the tree root
    XMLNode root = parser.getXMLRoot();
    // Print the name of our object
    cout << "Root = " << root.name() <<
    return 0;

Now that an instance of an XMLNode object representing the root of the tree has been parsed, the child elements of the root XMLNode can be accessed.

Compiling the Test Client

The last step is to compile the client. Simply perform the compile at the command line:

g++ -o testClient -I. -I/path/to/xerces/include \
-I/path/to/xerces/include/xerces testClient.cpp \
-L/path/to/xerces/lib -lxerces-c

This compiles the client application. The next step is to run a test. Be sure to set your LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to point to the location of your Xerces installation's lib directory. Because the shared libraries are from this directory, the application loader needs a way to import the required symbols at runtime in order for everything to function correctly.

When testClient is run, the following output is expected:

Adding child name
Adding child account-number
Root = customer

You now have a fully functional XML-parsing framework using C++ templates that will allow you to incorporate XML into your new or existing applications. Sample code is available at ftp.linuxjournal.com/pub/lj/listings/issue110/6655l1.tgz.

A Note-Slinging Dynamic Duo

"The drawback with using most note-taking applications on any platform is that they are limited in the type of data you can put into them. For instance, simple text editors ignore Internet and content links. Plus, you cannot import graphics. Even word-processing programs, which overcome the links and graphics deficiencies, lack the tree structure that makes storing and viewing notes quick and useful.

"For typical daily office and personal note-taking tasks, using a database application is like using a fumigating spray to kill a fly when a fly-swatter would do a better and safer job. Basket Note Pads and QToDo Manager offer convenience and reliability as note trackers.

"Both of these apps were developed for the KDE Linux desktop. But they are much different in look and feel. They run fine on Linux distros that use the GNOME desktop."

Greer Named A-Sun Runner of the Week
Wednesday, September 28, 2011
By Colby Wilson
Greer Named A-Sun Runner of the Week

MACON, Ga. – Lipscomb men’s cross country athlete Isaiah Greer has been named the Atlantic Sun men’s cross country runner of the week, the conference office announced Wednesday afternoon.

The award is the first of Greer’s career and the first for a Lipscomb men’s runner since the week of Sept. 24, 2008 when Ryan Chastain won the Vanderbilt Invitational for Lipscomb’s first individual title since joining the NCAA.

Greer, from Johnson City, Tenn., was 12th out of over 250 runners at last weekend’s Erik Andersen Invitational in Spokane, Wash. His 25:03.20s mark in the eight-kilometer race was second-best 8K by an A-Sun runner in the 2011 season.

Greer’s mark was the catalyst for a ninth-place Bisons team finish in Spokane; he has been the first Bison runner across the finish line in each of Lipscomb’s first four meets this season.

Greer and the rest of the Bisons will be at Kentucky’s Tom Sawyer State Park for the Louisville Classic, Saturday. The meet is scheduled to begin 8:30 a.m. (CT).

Singer Alicia Keys Pours Heart into AIDS Fight in Africa

Alicia Keys did not have to come here, to this small town outside of Durban on South Africa's eastern coast, where the infection rate from HIV/AIDS is believed to be twice the national average: 40 percent of the people in this part of the country are infected.

But for the Grammy winning singer and songwriter, the opportunity to come here and help build a clinic was reason enough to cross the ocean and confront a seemingly insurmountable challenge. She came, she says, "To be the voice of the people. To represent real people and real life, real struggles, real pains, real joys, real things that are really there, you know?

Watch Nightline at 11:35 p.m. EST tonight to see the full report on Cynthia McFadden's visit to South Africa with Alicia Keys. For more on Keys' foundation, go to

"I never wanted to be caught up in all the fantasies and the frivolity," she said. "You know, just, I never cared about that."

The humanitarian organization Keep A Child Alive has enlisted Keys as an ambassador to raise awareness about AIDS in Africa, where it hopes to attack the pandemic through a simple philosophy: $1 per child, per day for life-saving drugs, with nearly 100 percent of donations going toward treatment.

The clinic in Wentworth will provide the town's residents with HIV testing and treatment, as well as counseling for alcohol and drug dependencies, and courses in nutrition and women's empowerment.

But the effort, though substantial, is a small counterattack in a war with many, many fronts.

Overcoming Stigma and Taboos

Twenty-five years after the AIDS virus was identified, stigmas, taboos, and falsehoods continue to surround the disease, especially in a place like Wentworth. South Africa has as many as 6 million people living with HIV/AIDS -- it's more than any other country, but the accurate total is difficult to estimate because so many people refuse to be tested.

Until very recently, the nation's President denied the link between HIV and AIDS. And in a widely publicized trial this year, a major politician claimed he would bathe after sexual intercourse to avoid transmission of the virus -- a claim that enraged health advocates.

Keep A Child Alive hopes that the attention Keys creates can bring real results to a place where progress has been slow.

"There is such a stigma here and just because Alicia Keys put her name on this building, now it's cool to go get tested. Now it's cool to go get treatment," says Erika Rose, Keys' longtime friend and sometime song-writing partner. "I mean, we are talking about something that is layered so deep here, people just suffer in silence."

The legal justifications for apartheid, South Africa's official state policy of segregation, were largely removed by 1991, but its legacy persists in the nation's treatment of HIV/AIDS. The challenge in Wentworth is unique, according to Keep a Child Alive Founder Leigh Blake, because much of the population here is of mixed race -- a community Blake says has been neglected.

"They were dumped here in this township of Wentworth mostly to work for the surrounding industries," Blake said. "When apartheid was abolished, there was a lot of focus on the black community and quite rightly -- they'd been desperately, painfully treated through the centuries. But the colored community also needs help."

"Colored," the phrase commonly used in South Africa to refer to people of mixed race, was a phrase that the American visitors had to get used to. But eventually, Rose said, she realized it was another source of connection for her and for Keys -- both of whom, in South Africa, would be considered "colored."

"It really took someone explaining, you know, this is what they call it here, that's what they call themselves, colored, you know. I'm colored here," Rose says. "Alicia is colored too, which is another sort of insane connection . . . People see her as one of them and she sees it the same way."

A Common Language

Far from home, in an unfamiliar place, Keys found a familiar language: music. Not only in the wind through the trees or the chirping of the birds, but often in her own songs, which people sang to her wherever she went. Music unites people, she said, and serves as a source of hope.

"All music speaks to me," Keys said, "but we have to believe in something, and when it seems like there's nothing to believe in, you have hope and you have your faith that you are not going to be left alone."

In this and in any epidemic, accurate information is vital, and so Keys' voice is a powerful tool in the fight against AIDS.

"If you have this voice that Alicia has, you know, you gotta use it. It's a currency, you know," Rose said. "People put so much stock in celebrity and fame and people don't use it for the right thing."

VIDEO: Allies of same-sex marriage protest Chick-fil-A by locking
WATCH Chick-fil-A Opponents Protest With Same-Sex Kissing

On Wednesday hundreds of thousands of traditional marriage activists ate "mor chickin" to support Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day. Today, it is same-sex marriage allies' turn.

Gay marriage supporters are putting a romantic spin on traditional sit-ins, organizing "kiss-ins" outside of Chick-fil-A restaurants from Dallas to New York City to celebrate National Same-Sex Kiss Day.

"Basically what you're going to get is a bunch of pretty normal, average, everyday people that just happen to be gay or lesbian give each other a kiss or a hug, hold each other's hand, and really show them that we stand up for what we believe," said Marci Alt, who is organizing a protest outside the Chick-fil-A in Decatur, Ga., about 20 miles from the company's Atlanta headquarters.

While the spark for this week's protests both for and against Chick-fil-A stemmed from comments the company's CEO, Dan Cathy, made supporting traditional marriage, the issues driving people to the streets go deeper than one executive's words.

"For me why it's so important is, I don't believe anybody should have the ability to say, I'm not a good Christian, or I'm Jewish, that I'm not a good Jew because I'm gay," said Alt, who has been with her wife for 12 years and has two daughters. The couple have invited Cathy over to dinner, where they "can share a respectful dialogue about our faith, work and families here in Georgia," said Alt, who says she'll even make chicken.

Get more pure politics at ABC and a lighter take on the news at

Many of the Chick-fil-A supporters who turned out for Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day told ABC News that they chose to eat chicken sandwiches on Wednesday to support Cathy's First Amendment rights to express his opinion on marriage.

Activists who are planning to turn out for Friday's kiss-off say it is not about the CEO's speech, it's about his company's actions. Chick-fil-A and the non-profit foundation WinShape that it supports have donated millions to anti-gay groups.

Between 2008 and 2010, Chick-fil-A donated $28.4 million to the WinShape Foundation, according to the nonprofit's IRS reports.

In that same time WinShape has given $3.2 million to organizations that advocate against same-sex marriage. WinShape gave $1.2 million to the Marriage and Family Foundation, which lobbies against same-sex marriage and anti-discrimination policies, in 2010.

Over the three years of available tax returns, WinShape donated $2,000 to the Family Research Council, which pushes for a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one woman and was designated as a "hate group" by the Southern Poverty Law Center in 2010.

The Chick-fil-a-backed nonprofit gave also gave $2,500 to the Alliance Defense Fund, which represented proponents of California's Proposition 8 to outlaw gay marriage in the U.S. Court of Appeals when the proposition was ruled unconstitutional.

"Yes, you're allowed to have your opinion, but when you start signing checks over to people who are against my community and trying to rip my family apart, I'm going to stand up," Alt said.

Alt said she expects "hundreds, hopefully thousands" of people to show up for the Atlanta kiss-in.

Carly McGehee, who founded National Same Sex Kiss Day at Chick-fil-A, said she expects 15,000 people to have a same-sex smooch outside the company's 1,600 locations nationwide today. McGehee said she got the idea for the kiss-in from a similar event at Starbucks in 2009, where gay couples kissed in the coffee shop to show support for the company's domestic partner benefits.

Besides the kisses, McGehee, 24, said supporters are celebrating Kiss Day with by constructing kissing booths and buying Chick-fil-A food using dollar bills that they've written "gay money" on. McGehee said she wanted to hold a kiss-in rather than a traditional picket signs and chants protest so that "people see where we're coming from."

"This is a day about love," she said. "Our love is just as valid, just as real and just as credited as heterosexual love and we deserve the same protections under the law to raise a family and get married." "It is just a nice nonviolent demonstration of LGBT love," said

Rome Frost, who is organizing a kiss-in in New York City, said Friday's protests are a "nonviolent demonstration of LGBT love."

Because there is only one Chick-fil-A location in New York City, Frost is holding his kiss-in outside the restaurant on the New York University campus, which is closed for the summer. He said he expects between 150 and 200 people – both gay and straight – to show up for the New York City kiss-in, which starts at 8 P.M. ET.

"It's to show how much support that we do have and how we can solve these kinds of problems in a very nonviolent and romantic way," he said.

But while both the Chick-fil-A Kiss-Ins and the Appreciation Day have, by and large, been peaceful, police are investigating graffiti at a Southern California Chick-fil-A after "Tastes Like Hate" was painted in large, black block letters across the side the restaurant.

The graffiti mirrored the style of Chick-fil-A's "Eat Mor Chikin" ads and had a cow holding a paintbrush painted beside the words.

Cole Donahoo, who owns that Chick-fil-A franchise in Torrance, California, told the Long Beach Press-Telegram that he would get the graffiti "cleaned up as quickly as possible."

The restaurant declined to comment to ABC News citing the ongoing police investigation.

While it is Chick-fil-A's policy not to fire people over their sexual orientation, a Tucson, Arizona man was fired for criticizing a Chick-fil-A employee for supporting "hate groups" while he was going through the drive through on Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day.

Adam Smith, the former CFO and treasurer at the Tucson-based medical device manufacturing company Vante, posted a YouTube video showing him ording a free water at the Chick-fil-A drive-through window. Upon being handed his water Smith started criticizing the company and the young female employee who handed him his beverage.

"I don't know how you live with yourself and work here," Smith said in the video. "I don't understand it. This is a horrible corporation with horrible values. You deserve better."

Vante fired Smith on Thursday, issuing a statement saying that Smith's actions " do not reflect our corporate values in any manner."

"We respect the right of our employees and all Americans to hold and express their personal opinions, however, we also expect our company officers to behave in a manner commensurate with their position and in a respectful fashion that conveys these values of civility with others," the company said in the statement.

"We hope that the general population does not hold Mr. Smith's actions against Vante and its employees," it added.

The Prettiest Ruffle Blouse

13 June 2016

Mango Girls ruffle blouse - LITTLE SPREE

Mango Ruffle Blouse (3-14 years) £15.99

I found this blouse when I was compiling our edit of the Mango womenswear for Friday’s post (so many great things…). I always love a ruffle and I love this style of pretty (but simple) blouse for Tabitha – so easy to chuck on with jeans, dungarees (how sweet are these?), or little shorts when you want something a little prettier than a regular top/tee. In fact, it’s very similar to one I have myself (and love and wear all the time) from Isabel Marant. Tabitha’s (I went for the striped) is already on its way! But I may or may not be able to resist a second…

Sarah & Nicky xx

ps: I always size up with blouses for little ones, and just roll the sleeves up for a while. It’ll easily last until next Summer if you do. Also super-cute as a little dress on girls younger than three. Particularly with knitted tights in the Winter months.

Tween Spree

9 May 2016

Older girls fashion - Little Spree

1. Mango Flowy Shirt (4-14 years), £16.99
2. Next Jumpsuit (3-16 years), £16.00-£21.00
3. Gap Shirt Jacket (xs-xxl), £24.95
4. Monsoon ‘Make Your Own’ Beaded Necklace, £8.00
5. Gap 1969 Boy Fit Denim Shorts (4-13 years), £16.95
6. Next Fringed Bag, £12.00
7. Next Woven Sandals (sizes 26.5-41), £24.00-£30.00

Ladies, you spoke, we listened. So here it is: our first ‘Tween Spree’ post. There are some lovely pieces out there for older girls so we thought we’d start you off (yes, we’ll be doing more, and not just for girls) with a round-up of some of our favourites. These denim cut-offs and green utility jacket are mini-must-have pieces, and we just love these cute accessories (they would make great gifts too). Oh, and just between us Mamas, those leather woven sandals go up to size 41, so, if somehow your shoe size ends up in the basket, our lips are sealed!

Going, Going…

19 January 2016

Little Spree girls sales picks

1. Louis Louise Blouse, £36.40 (was £52.00)
2. Boden Dungarees, £15.00-£17.50 (were £30.00-£35.00)
3. Carrement Beau Wool Coat, £42.05 (was £60.08)
4. Pom D’Api Brown Boots, £51.10 (were £73.00)
5. ilovegorgeous Sequin Bag, £27.30 (was £39.00)

Although we’ve never tested the theory, it’s said that if you wear all your favourite pieces together, you end up with a wonderful outfit. These girls ‘as seen on Little Spree’ sale picks seem to prove the theory – chosen individually, on the basis that they were some of our favourite items from our winter outfit edits (and still had sizes available) they actually  make a lovely (cheap chic) outfit. You might also like to test the theory with these other sale pieces from Mango, Louis Louise, Gap,  Louis Louise, Mango, and Manuela de Juan.

Nicky & Sarah xx

ps: Tabitha has 2, 3 and 4. In fact, SC loves number three so much, she’s considering re-buying for next Winter!

Just add a black ribbon…

9 November 2015

Screen Shot 2015-11-08 at 21.28.34Girls Dungarees

1. Boden Dungarees, £27.00-£31.50 (were £30.00-£35.00)
2. Mango Shirt, £16.99 (ribbon from John Lewis, £3.25-£6.00)
3. Monsoon Sparkle Bag, £8.00

We first saw this gorgeous dungaree styling at the Bonpoint Spring/Summer 2016 catwalk show (above). Then we saw it for the second time last week at the Bonpoint press day for the same collection. Even more adorable in person! We have long been fans of the dungaree for girls (and that includes us!!), and I often love to style mine and Tabitha’s with something ‘pretty’ to contrast with their, ultimately, boyish style. But this simple (why didn’t we think of it before??) styling trick of addling a black ribbon? It’s nothing short of styling genius! Get down to your local John Lewis haberdashery department (or get online right now!!) and get yourself some black, grosgrain ribbon, For you and your little ‘Mini Me’. I know I will be!

Sarah & Nicky xx

ps: Tabitha was given this glittery ‘mini bag’ by Monsoon at a recent party they held at The Tower of London to celebrate their 20th anniversary of childrenswear. She absolutely loves it. It really is super-cute.

pps: this blouse is a great option in the unlikely event that you can’t be arsed with the DIY ribbon…

Elias & Grace: treat week for girls

20 October 2015

Girls Dot Jacket

1. Morley Chloe Blouse, £55.00
2. Carrement Beau Wool Coat, £60.08
3. Gap 1969 Super Skinny Jeans, £19.95
4. Pom D’Api Boots, £107.00

We love stripes, we love (little) spots, but spots and stripes together? I know it’s a shock to see not one, but two patterns together in a Little Spree post, but even we can’t resist this gorgeous Morley top and Carrement Beau coat (in fact Tabitha already has both, as well as these gorgeous boots – even nicer in really life). It’s ‘treat week’ at Elias & Grace who are offering 20% discount off their AW15 collection with code TREATAW15. This offer only runs once per season so it’s the perfect time to stock up on those more expensive/statement/investment items (which is includes the Morley stripe top and these Pom D’Api boots). Also in our basket you’ll find this Zef dress; this Louis Louise poncho; this Carrement Beau Breton; this Kidscase dress; these Minnetonka boots (Tabitha has already put in a request for a pair after seeing them on my laptop!); this Nice Things cardigan (the perfect cardigan); this Louis Louise blouse (first seen on Little Spree here); these Miller mittens (Tabitha and Marlow already have these from last year in grey and navy – proof that mittens on a string really don’t get lost!); and it’s the perfect opportunity to buy new wellies for the Winter too. Check back on Thursday to see our boys ‘treat week’ wish list. Happy shopping!

He's back: one step at a time

LAST year started — like one of his trademarks charges — with a bang for Kelepi Tanginoa.

The Cabramatta junior made his NRL debut in round two, he was elevated to the starting team in round four and was selected in the NSW under 20s team by round six.

There was no sign of the 20-year-old slowing down. Then came injury number one: a fractured left hand.

Nine games into his first NRL season and the Rhino was sidelined for eight weeks. At the time it was almost a blessing in disguise to rest his body after a tough opening to the season where he graduated from Holden Cup prodigy to an 80-minute man NRL second-rower.

It meant he could get his body right for the back end of the season.

But then came injury number two.

In a cruel game of Twister, it went left hand in cast, to right foot in moon boot.

A stress fracture in his foot meant Tanginoa's season was over.

It was a double blow for the former Westfields Sports High student.

Not only did he have to sit idly in the stands while the Eels struggled on the field, he also missed his chance to represent Tonga at the World Cup.

"I won't lie it was pretty hard to sit on the sideline for five months but it's something everyone has to go through at some stage," he said.

"I spent three months in a moon boot so it meant I had to skip the World Cup to focus on my rehab and getting the strength back in my right leg."

The concept of training hard is not foreign to Tanginoa. The NRL media guide points out that Tanginoa is often the first to get to training and the last to leave.

It's why after almost nine months out of the game and with little trial form under his belt, coach Brad Arthur was still able to pick him for the opening round.

It's the first step on the road to reaching his goal in 2014: to play good and consistent NRL footy. A goal he is hoping to share with brother Saia, who is playing for Wentworthville in the Ron Massey Cup.

Six key tasks for new Everton FC boss

Greg O'Keeffe on how David Moyes' successor can hit the ground running

Will Martinez be the new man at EFC?

Everton are likely to have a new manager installed in the Goodison hot-seat shortly, but what challenges does the new man face – and what should be his priorities?

Everton correspondent Greg O’Keeffe examines what David Moyes’ successor needs to do in order to hit the ground running in time for the 2013/14 season.

Everton FC's Leighton Baines
Everton FC's Leighton Baines

The England full-back is coveted across Europe and was once seriously considered by this season's Champions League winners Bayern Munich. With rumours that David Moyes could consider signing the 28-year-old for a second time, this time luring him to Old Trafford, the new manager will know that keeping him is a priority.

Most players are replaceable, but Baines – who created the most scoring chances in Europe last term and was voted Everton’s player of the season – is not most players.

He is a loyal character who is settled on Merseyside, so the Kirby-born defender would be unlikely to agitate for an exit. But the chance to play in the Champions League may also be temping for a player who wants to seal his place as England’s first-choice left-back ahead of Ashley Cole ahead of the next World Cup.

The new manager must sit down with Baines as one of his first tasks, and tell him how he plans to take Everton forward on the pitch and off it. The defender is as intelligent as he is humble, and will be receptive to suggestions Everton’s style of play can progress.

Losing him would be a severe blow to the morale of a supporter-base already smarting from seeing their manager head along the M62, and would leave the side without their main creative force.

With Leon Osman having already committed to a new deal, the next manager will be confident he has an experienced playmaker in his ranks and can also count on the undisputed ability of Steven Pienaar and Kevin Mirallas. But David Moyes knew he was lacking a bit of extra dynamism in central midfield back in January, which is why he targeted FC Twente powerhouse Leroy Fer.

Fer has made noises about still being interested in a Goodison switch, but there will have to be further assurances about the longevity of his knee. However, finding a rapid player with an exciting turn of pace, or a comative unit in the mould of West Ham’s Mohamed Diame would be a boost to the Blues engine room.

David Moyes nurtured Ross Barkley expertly and the 19-year-old’s development is likely to be a testament to the Scot’s experience. But the new manager could do worse than playing Barkley more often when the new season gets underway. Likewise he can look at the poacher’s eye of talented U-21’s striker Conor McAleny, and the defensive stature of Shane Duffy as other assets worth using more often. If he decides they’re not good enough, they should be allowed to further their careers elsewhere.

Everton haven’t had a 20-goal a season front man since Yakubu’s debut campaign in 2007/08. Goals, or a lack of them, have been their Achilles Heel ever since.

The new boss can start with rejuvenating the confidence of Nikica Jelavic and hoping that the Croatian’s struggling form last season was simply a prolonged blip.

But whatever happens he must sign another goal-scorer capable of firing the Toffees up the table.

Jan Mucha is likely to hang up his rarely-used gloves and head back to his homeland this summer, and Moyes had already admitted he needed a better, younger goalkeeper to drive number one Tim Howard on.

Across the park Liverpool benefited from having Brad Jones to step in when the usually reliable Pepe Reina’s form faltered. Everton could do with a similar level of quality back-up, and someone with genuine first team ambitions to keep Howard on his toes.

The Blues will have a bigger transfer war-chest than in recent years this summer thanks to the new cash influx all Premier League clubs will receive in the wake of BT’s broadcast deal, and the savings they will make on Moyes’ £5m-per-year contract.

But they will still need a manager with an eye for a bargain, and ingenuity in the market. Kevin Mirallas was a steal at £6m last summer, and the next man in the Goodison frame should have contacts as far and wide as Moyes who can unearth him a gem from a less exposed league, such as Greece, to Everton’s eventual benefit.
