Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal MIDFIELD target not for sale.

Manchester United, Arsenal and Chelsea have been heavily linked with a move for highly rated Belgium and Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini in recent weeks.

But according to Everton manager David Moyes, the versatile midfielder will not leave Goodison Park any time soon.

"The plan is to keep all of our players.

"I wouldn’t be talking about anyone’s contracts if I can help it, and I won’t do it now." Said Moyes.

Fellaini has been sensational for Everton this season a fact that has attracted the interest of top clubs all scrambling for his signature.

The Belgian may have added credence to the exit rumors when he was quoted saying that he deserves to play at the highest level, the Champions League and if Everton fails to finish in top four they sure have a fight in keeping him at Merseyside.

Chelsea are in the market for a Frank Lampard replacement who is set to quit the Blues in the summer once his contract runs out while Arsenal and Manchester United managers are known to be admirers of the powerful midfielder.

3 Secrets To Getting A Job FAST

3 Secrets To Getting A Job FAST

After three to four years of hard work, you finally did it; you graduated! It feels good to have that degree certificate in your folder. Not a day goes by without you looking through those certificates and wondering what the world holds for you. The plan is to take it easy this Christmas, catch up on all those many hours of lost sleep then probably by mid-January, you will know what to do with yourself.
The many stories of how guys struggle with getting jobs, unanswered applications, endless tarmacking and polite regret letters go through your mind. What about the girls? Will they like you? Will you get a good one?
All these thoughts bring butterflies to your stomach. Therefore, today we discuss how you can brace yourself for the times ahead.
In my childhood, my late dad would once in a while take us out fishing on River Thegu on the slopes of Mt Kenya (now only a small shadow of what it was). As we set up our equipment, he would tell us to look for 12 worms each then we would get to sit on a carefully selected site, bait our hooks and get on with fishing. I didn’t like worms back then. I was fonder of sweets, biscuits and sausages. Sometimes I tried these as bait, but they didn’t catch the interest of any fish. It was the worms that always worked.
Looking back at this, I learned a critical lesson; that it always pays to bait the hook that suits the fish. So how does this apply to the challenges you will face?
Every year, hundreds of thousands set out in search of jobs. Every vacancy is met with thousands of interested applications. If you go this way, yours will always be one of the thousands that don’t even get out of the envelope. You need to adopt better approaches to job hunting.
First, get to understand the desires of would-be employers: The calibre of staff they desire, the level and diversity of skill they would find helpful and where they are likely to look for it.
Just like in fishing, there are three fundamental elements you need to get right to land the job you desire — the product, packaging and positioning. As a baseline, you need to develop your product. For example, what extras are you bringing on board? Take up some professional evening classes and study to get more skills. Go out of your way to learn new things. Any good employer wants a team of guys with a diversity of skills, so do not be content with that degree or diploma.
Packaging is a whole mix of things, but it primarily involves putting together an attractive and focused resume. This acts as your face to an employer who has never seen you. Always tweak the resume to suit a particular job. Use neat and professional fonts. Make it brief and sweet, but rich in content. Get credible referees; don’t just give names, addresses and phone numbers. Get people with good titles working for credible companies because people will always judge you by the company you keep.
Positioning is the third critical element in job hunting. The recruitment terrain has changed. Human resource managers don’t just sit and wait for applications. They are always recruiting; in supermarkets, at restaurants, on Sundays at social events and in between flights. This is what makes packaging an important element in job hunting. Your dressing, mannerisms, attitude and reactions to different situations can get a potential employer asking for your resume.
Knowing that people are always recruiting will get you dressing decently. This does not mean always putting on a suit, but it could mean dropping those jeans that expose half of your behind. Be courteous when dealing with people and hang out in the right places — malls, family and professional events and concerts.
Good employers recruit through their friends, contacts and through networking. So hang out in the right places, with the right people and put the word out to your friends, relatives and people you meet and it won’t be long before you start swirling round on a comfortable seat in a good office.

Lessons That Can Help You Succeed In Life

Lessons That Can Help You Succeed In Life

Here are some lessons to learn on the journey through life
1. Be visionary: Have a clear vision of what you want to do with your life. Every successful career begins with a decision of what you want to be or to do with your life, goals that you want to achieve, short-term, mid-term, long-term. It must be your vision and not that of your parents, peers or spouse because ultimately it’s you who will have to bring it to reality. Without a vision for your life you will easily drift through life, resentful and feeling as if you are simply existing and life has short-changed you.
2. Be resourceful: Make the most of the opportunities and resources that life has given you. In a given position, take time to gather all the skills, knowledge, experience that the position offers. There is no such thing as useless skill or experience. Gathering skills and experience often entails spending several years in the same line of work. Remember that a rolling stone never gathers moss! In my experience I consider a minimum of three to five years in the same line of work absolutely necessary.
3. Be daring: Life is about taking risks, and having the faith and courage to follow your dreams through. Don’t be afraid to take risks. I particularly want to challenge you lady lawyers to start your own private practice, rather than seeking to be hired by your male colleagues. Remember they had the same opportunities and training as you. Think outside the box of looking to be employed by someone all the time!
4. Be tenacious: You need not be an intellectual genius to succeed in this life. You simply need to work hard and to diligently pursue your dream with unwavering courage, fortitude, steadfastness and tenacity. You see there is a big crowd of enemies waiting to see you fail and sometimes actively working to pull you down. If you are not tenacious you may easily give up. Let no one despise you on account of your age, gender, tribe, race or any other stereotype out there.
5. Be ambitious: In everything you do strive for excellence! If you want to leave your mark in life you cannot afford to settle for mediocrity. Do not do something simply because “everybody does it” or do it a certain way just because “that’s the way everybody does it.”
6. Be discerning: It is important in life to focus on those things that matter most. For example, in a job, money is not everything. There are other considerations such as job-satisfaction, opportunities for scholarships, exposure and experience. While we all long for well-paying jobs, you must accept that you may have to start with humble beginnings and that instead, the skills and experience you acquire from this seemingly poor-paying job are priceless! Money is good but the danger of making money your objective is that after a while, it will surely choke and overtake your dream and vision.
7. Be resilient: In life, ugly things happen. You may meet situations where you suffer racial, gender, tribal, religious or other kinds of prejudices. Believe you me, prejudice comes in as many shades as the colours of the rainbow with those who reckon themselves higher up the pecking order, lording it over those they reckon are lower down. Never allow these prejudices to stand in our way! Through sheer resilience, you can face up to such challenges and instead of wallowing in self pity you can choose to turn those mill-stones into stepping stones to success.
8. Be humble: Arrogant people tend to rub everyone the wrong way. On the other hand, there is nothing that impresses me more than people who are high achievers and yet remain humble. Humility simply means learning to keep your success in perspective. Remember you are neither the first nor the last to reach where you are!
9. Self-Critique: For one to grow in one’s career, you must learn periodically to audit your performance. Take stock of your achievements, failures, short-comings etc. with a view to identifying those areas that need improvement. We all tend to stagnate at times.
10. Worship: Honour God and honour your profession by serving your fellow man faithfully. I believe the majority of us here do believe in a power higher than ourselves. You achieve success in my not by your own strength but by God who guides your choices, blesses and rewards your efforts.

UHURU and RUTO should not vie for PRESIDENCY - KHALWALE

  Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and his running mate William Ruto should not be allowed to contest the Presidency in the March 4 general election, Ikolomani MP Bony Khalwale has said.

Addressing over 350 UDF delegates from Kakamega County at the party offices in Kakamega town, Khalwale said the two should be barred from contesting because of the crimes against humanity charges facing them at the International Criminal Court (ICC).

Khalwale said Kenyans are keenly awaiting the outcome of an integrity case against the two saying the constitution will guide the electoral process and the law must not be applied selectively.

He compared Uhuru and Ruto cases to the case of former deputy Chief Justice Nancy Baraza who was sacked on the grounds of merely pinching a security guard's nose.

“As leaders from Western Kenya, we are waiting see if the courts will clear the two to run for Presidency. We want to know what between pinching one’s nose and facing crimes against humanity is a serious crime,” Khalwale said.

The outspoken MP, who is also a close ally of Deputy Prime Minister Musalia Mudavadi, said Chapter Six of the constitution should not be applied selectively and told Chief Justice Willy Mutunga that Kenyans have full confidence in the reformed Judiciary and are waiting the outcome of an integrity case keenly.

On the issue of next election, Khalwale dismissed the assertions by Uhuru and Ruto that they have the numbers, saying the next elections will be decided by 14.3million registered voters but not by two tribes.

SHAME: Can the Standard Newspaper explain this?

On Saturday, all major roads in Nairobi were leading to the historic Uhuru Park grounds to witness the unveiling of the Jubilee coalition dream team.

Hundreds of thousands of Kenyans from different tribes trickled down to the historic park from as early as 6 am.

But it was shameful this morning when I saw Standard Newspaper never covered the story on their main news.

When Jubilee coalition was in wrangles two weeks ago, major headlines in the newspaper was about the jubilee coalition split.

We in the diaspora were shocked to learn that the Standard Newspaper has already taken sides as their Royal Media Services (RMS) counterparts, which to journalism   code of ethics is unethical especially at a time when the country is undergoing healing and reconciliation from 2007-08 post election wounds.

It may be a good choice but know that majority of people who read your news were shocked to learn that you have already taken sides.
