| Postal workers to strike
I was interested to observe this morning the Post Office's apparent strategy to clear the backlog. A PO van pulled up at the end of the road and 2 young (ca.14 y.o.) girls got out with a small parcel of letters each in their hands. [bold]Is Watford PO now empoying underage strike-breakers?[/bold] .
Chelsea still stalk Man Utd and Arsenal
At Wigan in November, the Brazilian right-back had run from the halfway line before lashing the ball home and this has encouraged Chelsea's fans to yell "Shoot!" whenever he takes possession, even if the range is demanding. Here it was 30 yards, but he obliged them, letting fly with one that moved a bit but essentially beat Cerny, who had seen it all the way, through pace. Amid an explosion of blue glee, Spurs' deposed England goalkeeper, Paul Robinson, watched from the bench. Cerny's attempt to stop Wright-Phillips's shot also caused some comment, albeit not from Juande Ramos; the Spurs manager merely said goals were conceded by the team as a whole. He also deflected questions about whether a goalkeeper was top of his shopping list for the rest of the winter window. Unless something was lost in the translation from Spanish, his general impression of the match was sheer twaddle.

Business objectivesSo measurement metrics must be determined by business objectives: Who do we want to reach? What media do they use? Where do they live? What do we want them to do? How important is competitive positioning? What do we want to compare at the end of the initiative? How will we find out if our editorial coverage made a difference? Did we get our key messages out to our target audience? Whatever method we use to measure media, we start by collecting clips. In South Africa the most-used clipping agencies are Newsclip and Monitoring SA. Both offer media statistical and content-driven media tracking across all media types, including print, broadcast and online.As PR practitioners we need to get more specific about what we want and need from clipping agencies.
