How to Increase Your Social Media Click-Through Rates
Want more traffic to your website?
What if you could double the click-through rates of your social media updates?
Extra traffic from Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter would be nice, right?
In this article you'll discover four steps for crafting a great call to action that improves click-throughs.
Why Driving Traffic Matters
Your website is the hub of your online marketing efforts. It's where your audience can find the answers to their questions and where you deepen relationships with readers, offer value to visitors, and yes, maybe even encourage email signups and purchases.
In an ideal world, you'd be funneling all of your social fans and followers to your website so you could do just that.
How To Build a Content Strategy Using a Social Media Audit
Do you want to create a strong social media content strategy?
Are you looking for tools to help you analyze the content on your competitors' social media profiles?
To create a content strategy that engages and motivates your audience, you need to do a comprehensive social media audit.
In this article I'll share how to perform a social media audit to build a successful social media content strategy.
#1: Identify Your Competitors
Most businesses have already identified the main players in their industry by searching Google or social networks.
If you don't already have a list of competitors at hand, just search for your site on SEMrush to see a list of related providers. SEMrush automatically sorts them by competition level based on how many common keywords the sites rank for in Google.
How to Promote Your Content With Social Media
Do you put a lot of time and effort into the content you create?
Do you want that content to be seen by as many people as possible?
A master chef can present the same meal in 100 different ways, and you can do the same thing with your content.
In this article, I'll show you the best practices of presenting the same piece of content in multiple ways on the same networks.
#1: Feature It on Facebook
Facebook offers you three different ways to post your content: links posts, posts with images and video/rich media. Let's dive into your options with the different post formats possible.
Facebook Link Posts
A link post is when you want to share a link in your Facebook update. Did you know that you're able edit the headline, link description and preview image on any link post?

Why Your Social Media is Not Working?
If you feel like you've tried everything to connect with your audience, but it's just not working, you're probably looking to social media experts for advice. Maybe you've followed that advice, but your audience still isn't responding. What's going on?

10 Social Media Tips to Enhance Your Marketing, From the Pros
Are you serious about kicking your social media marketing up a notch?
Do you want tips that will help you stay ahead of the social media marketing curve?
Here's some great advice from ten social media pros.
In this article I share 10 social tips from the pros to improve your social media marketing in 2014.
How to Create Visual Social Media Content
Do you use images to boost engagement?
Are you looking for tools to create better visual content?
Creating compelling visuals for your social media marketing can be challenging.
In this article you'll find just about every resource you need to create visual stories on all of the major social platforms.
The Big Picture
Visual content has become extremely important to marketers' social tactics. That's because of a growing consumer interest in images as evidenced by popular sites like Pinterest, Instagram and Snapchat.
People connect more emotionally with images than they do with text. In fact, customers are more likely to take action or make a decision when prompted with an image.
That means brands using visual social media content to drive a stronger message to their audience will naturally cut through the noise and rise to the top.
Here's a lot of important stuff you need to know about visual content for social media marketing.
#1: Making the Case for Visual Content in Social Media
The use of visual content in social media has exploded, partly because it's so easy to create and share images and video with a smartphone, and partly because images are more persuasive than text content. Here are some important reasons why you should include visual stories in your social marketing tactics.
Why Use Visual Content in Social Media Marketing?: Over at the Marketing Tech Blog, Douglas Karr breaks it down for us with an infographic (of course) to explain why any social marketing should be dominated by visuals.

How to Increase Your Social Media Following by Over 700%
Are you looking for creative ways to grow your social media following?
Are you dealing with limited resources?
Then you'll want to study what Microsoft Dynamics did.
How is a giant like Microsoft the same as everybody else when it comes to social media marketing?
They have the same challenges as any company. They have to figure out:
- Whom they're talking to
- What their needs are
- Where and how to talk to them
And even though they're Microsoft, they still have limited resources to do it all. So how does Microsoft do social media? They start by trial and error, and then see what works and what needs changing. Sound familiar?
Over the past two years, Microsoft Dynamics, a business group of Microsoft, pruned their social channels by half, but now reaches more customers.
I spoke with Kelly Rigotti, senior marketing communication manager of social media for Microsoft Dynamics, to learn how they did it.

MPA Program Brings Students to Cape Town, South Africa
A new course that brings Graduate School students overseas is designed to be a life-changing experience for its participants, but it's also an idea that is shaping the young Master of Public Administration program and The College of New Rochelle.
"This is the future," said Dr. Malcolm Oliver, who has chaired the MPA program since it launched in Fall 2012 and began planning the study abroad course as soon as he joined CNR. "We need to develop more international components to the program," he said. "We need to build more networks, not just in cities or between states."
Environmental and economic issues freely cross international borders, Oliver said. The United States, for example, feels the effects of Europe's economic troubles.
The dozen students in the winter session course Governance in the Mother City traveled to Cape Town, South Africa, from January 10 to 20, seeking to learn how government agencies, nonprofits, and other institutions are providing services to a relatively new democracy.
Since the end of Apartheid, a system of racial segregation by which the white minority subjugated the black majority, the South African government has been trying to provide a more stable life for its citizens, most of whom were denied basic rights and services. The country now has the most progressive constitution in the world, Oliver said, establishing access to housing, water sanitation, education, and health as basic human rights.
Delivering these services has been a challenge, and not just financially. Apartheid limited the education of the majority of the population, meaning there is a lack of trained workers. Oliver said this trip has provided a firsthand education on democratization, "how public agencies are responding under pressure, and how nonprofits are filling the holes government can't."
South Africa's history of colonization means it has first-world and developing-world issues in the same jurisdiction -- a microcosm of the rest of the world and, Oliver said, "the perfect laboratory for a social scientist."
The students had a view of South Africa's challenges and assets from the ground level. Pela Selene Terry wrote of speaking with hotel workers about the nation's shifting color lines. "The journey has heightened my academic (and political) awareness of not only the history of the nation, but shifted my understanding better to see the impact of that history on modern society," she said.
Terry concludes that "South African problems require South African solutions" -- solutions that keep in mind the country's complex history and reality.
A tour of the township of Khayelitsha, the second-largest in the country, brought home many of South Africa's issues. "It was the crux of what we're studying," Oliver said.
But amid the poverty, the lack of indoor plumbing, and other privations, the students also saw hope. Aesha McNeil collected donations from friends and family to bring toiletries to township children and found inspiration in their happiness despite their hardships.
Many were also affected by meeting Malandi Ntozini, a 17-year-old who operates Vicky's B&B, the smallest hotel in the continent. She took over from her mother, who was stabbed to death by her husband. "I'll forever be grateful for the opportunity to have met her," wrote Tameir Cummings.
Other highlights included visits to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela and other political prisoners were held, and natural wonders such as Cape Point and Table Mountain.
Oliver hopes to continue the bringing students overseas, and is considering Spain or Brazil for the next trip. He said Brazil is particularly interesting because of its incredible diversity, economic disparity, history of slavery and segregation, and its place as a leader in South America. Hosting the upcoming World Cup and Summer Olympics also puts the country on the map.
The study abroad component should also help put the MPA program on the map, Oliver said. "We can tell people, we're not just going to give you an education -- we're going to take you around the world."

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This is a great school with dedicated staff and a great student body.
My child loves to go to school everyday. He gets to participate is extracurricular activities that help homework, reading, math and even learning to speak Chinese. He is learning to speak Khmer and learning about lots of different cultures. He is able to use online programs at home that is provided by the school. We get parent news letters with update information every month. Plus, the school's website has current information about school events. Parents are kept informed and get to come to monthly meeting and help plan fun activities for students. I really like that that Kirkbride is a safe school and there is high expectations for students to behave well.
I feared the worst and I got it! There is no recess, there is no auditorium, they just got a music teacher this year at the cost of the world language program. they do have awards assemblies which my child was a part of last year but i was never invited.the principal and her staff are unapproachable without an appointment. and volunteers are not as welcome as you would think.I have witnessed far too much yelling and the students have to stand in silence in the gym each morning before school. My son is in first grade this year I have had many concerns. this is my neighborhood school, I hoped he would have attended straight through 8th grade. But we are looking into better schools for the future.
I attended an awards program for my son today. He won first prize for the writing contest. It is really nice to go to his school for something positive. This school is doing a great job preparing students for high school.
Eliza B. Kirkbride School has been chosen by The School District of Philadelphia as one of The Best Practices Schools. (The Best Practices Schools celebration was held at the Education Center at 440 N. Broad St.) This event celebrated its highest quality schools as models of exemplary performance that can be replicated throughout the District. According to the School District, Kirkbride earned The Best Practices School recognition because it met Pennsylvania No Child Left Behind achievement standards and realized significant achievement growth over the three year time period. Kirkbride has made very good progress and, as a parent, I am delighted that the school has continued to prosper. I would like to congratulate Mrs. Magness, the principal and her excellent staff for maintaining a very high standard. I really appreciate the leadership and management of Ms. Victoria Magness. Her leadership and management of the school are strong and excellent at all levels. She is kind, understanding, and caring person who is easy to talk to. She never looses her cool in dealing with delicate situations. Her implementation of a number of good policies and procedures ensures the safety and the welfare of the students. I give top marks for the energetic and enthusiastic teaching at the school. Students are often swept along by the teacher s enthusiasm and energy. Teachers are knowledgeable and hard working. Their commitment contributes to the good standards achieved academically. I strongly feel that the quality of teaching and learning at Kirkbride is excellent throughout the school. My children are doing so well academically at Kirkbride; therefore, I am very satisfied and content with its management and staff. Overall, I see that the students at Kirkbride have very positive attitudes toward school and behave very well. I feel blessed to be able to send my children to Kirkbride. My first child attended Kirkbride. My second is currently attending Kirkbride. My youngest child will be attending Kirkbride in September 2006. I feel that Kirkbride is one of the most effective and excellent school with many impressive qualities. That s why I am sending my children to Kirkbride.
My son was transferred from our local school to Kirkbride two years ago. It was the best thing for both of us. We both love the school and staff. All of the teachers,office staff,crossing guards and all of the other staff I've met have been nothing but friendly and professional. My son is in the learning support class and has been able to stay on grade level and above in some areas. Each morning he is happy to go to school to learn which is a change from his old school, he never wanted to go. The principal,Mrs. Magness is wonderful. She knows the children's names and parent's also. She does things for the kids I have never seen other principals do,like making sure they can go on class trips,or attend a book fair. I honestly don't have enough room to write about how much I like this school.
The Kirkbride school is a safe, clean, nuturing, learning place. Inside the school is so bright and cheerful. The teachers are hardworking and they care about helping children. My 3 children all have had good experiences at Kirkbride and 2 have graduated and have gone off to really good high schools. The principal and assistant principal care about safety. They are there every morning when kids come in and in the afternnoon when it is time to go home watching over our children to make sure they are safe. Kirkbride is a good school with lots of extra programs where kids can have art, music lessons and sports.
I went to Kirkbride School for an awards program for my son. He got an award for being a good reader. His teacher works very hard with the boys and girls so that they all read, write and do math well. I am pleased with this school and the test scores keep going up every year. The principal is always there to make sure that kids understand that learning is serious business.
Kirkbride is one of the finest schools in South Philadelphia with dedicated and hard working teachers and exceptional leadership from the Principal. Here are the following reasons why Kirkbride has quality academic programs: 100 Book Challenge Program for grades K-6-Students read daily from a wide selection of books in class and at home for approximately one hour a day. Homework is given consistently and effectively every day in grades K-2. There are computer intervention reading programs, i.e. Fast Forword and READ 180 to help students who are reading below level. School-wide writing contests and other reading and math activities in which students are always rewarded with prizes and certificates. The Principal in this school is one of most decent and impartial people who genuinely care about all of her students academic and social needs. I could send my child to any schools, but I chose Kirkbride.
This is not a school to enroll your children in. The princicpal is very harsh, condescending & 'in charge of her school'. We were reminded of that 4 times in one conversation today. If your child is teased and taunted by the bullies in the school and your child fights as a result your child will be considered the 'problem' and the principal will talk to you as if both 'you and your child are the problem'. This school is the pits!
This is the worst school I have ever seen. Half of the teachers speak broken english. My daughter went there for K & 1st grade. Her K teacher was wonderful but that was the only good thing about the experience. It was so bad that we removed our daughter and put her in a private school that we really couldn't afford. My husband works two full time jobs just so we won't have to send her back there. When our daughter went into the private school she was very unprepared and had to have special instruction just to be on the same level as the other kids. Parents.. if you have a choice don't choose this school.

Cleansed By Fire Lyrics - Alice Cooper
Review The Song (5)
I don't know but I've been told
The streets of hell are paved with gold
Crazy, crazy
You told me that nothing's free
Except my own insanity
Crazy, maybe
Wake me, shake me
Wake me, shake me
You offer me the world and all its wealth
All for myself
You promised me a life eternally
And drink to my health
I may seem only half-glued
But I can see right through you
Burn it up, burn it down
Burn this sucker to the ground
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Going, going, going, gone
There's a party going on
Do you think I don't know who you are
A fallen star
When I feel my soul scream out at night
I know you're not far
You need a better disguise
This one won't win any prize
Burn it up, burn it down
Burn this sucker to the ground
Oh yeah, oh yeah
Going, going, going, gone
There's a party going on
Cleansed by fire, cleansed by fire
I may seem only half-glued
But I can see right through you
What about dark
What about light
What about wrong
What about right
What about death
What about sin
What about the web you're trying to spin
What about truth
What about life
What about glory
What about Christ
What about peace
What about love
What about faith in God above
What about war
What about hell
What if I stumble
What if I fell
What about blood
What about greed
And all of these things you're offering me
Yeah, what about me, little me
You lose and I win
You couldn't suck me in
It's over, you have no power
You're lost
And I'm found
And I'm Heaven bound
Go back to where you belong
To where you fell
Go to hell

The Last Temptation | Reviewer: Vincent | 2/20/10
I hate to disappoint, but the song isn't purely some born-again Christian message. The entire album was written as an accompaniment to the graphic novel, The Last Temptation, co-written by and starring Alice himself. This song pertains to the book's ending, in which the protagonist, who Alice has been tempting the whole time with money and friendship and women and eternal life, finally overpowering him by burning him to death.
I'm not saying there aren't definite Christian undertones to the song, there clearly are, but that's because the novel utilized the old light vs dark cliche as its plot device, and the whole religion, God vs the Devil ideal is the same basic gist. You should read the graphic novel first before reading too much into the song's meaning and adopting it as some anthem for your Christianity. Plus it's an excellent novel.
Hmm... | Reviewer: Enchantress | 7/13/07
Well I just love the music changes...
I like the lyrics but I guess I haven't really interpreted them in a religous sense...
Unrestraint | Reviewer: Scott | 3/24/07
Alice's approach in this album is straight forward. He doesn't come across as preachy, but simply honest. He confesses things he struggles with (as do we all struggle), and talks about what concerns him in society. Thanks for the music and the message!
Elect Alice ! | Reviewer: David Steber | 5/31/05
WOW !! Alice hit the nail on the head in a way no one else can, and I bet satan cringes every time Cleansed By Fire is played. If I never meet him in this world, I will see Alice in heaven... Those who say Alice is evil better look in the mirror and try to cleanse themselves before the fire gets hotter.
Oh yea, and the song ROCKS !
VERY UPLIFTING!!! | Reviewer: Pamela Baker | 12/27/04
My husband bought me "The Last Temptation"cd from Alice Cooper for Christmas, and "Cleansed By Fire" is my favorite!!! My husband and I are both Born-again Christians, and it's almost like Alice is giving me a wonderful sermon from this song!!! It's SO uplifting, and encouraging to me!!! Alice is Heaven-bound, and so are my husband and I!!! We both LOVE Alice, and we are so proud of him!!! He is a wondeful Christian man, and he will surely get many rewards in Heaven!!!

Review this game
Feb 14, 2014I suppose the biggest problem I had with this game was that I played Persona 4 first. Because of that I feel my experience of the game was not what it could have been.
It is clear that this game is the game before Persona 4 as all the same mechanics are there, just in a far more raw form. I did really want to like this as much as I did P4, but I just could not get past the flaws that I think I wouldn't of noticed had I not played P4 first.
Story wise it is on par with P4. The narrative is deeply engaging, but perhaps a little too transparent at times.
Most of the characters are well developed and interesting, however not as flushed out as in P4. I never felt any deep connection to any of the characters, at least not to the same degree as I did for the P4 cast. I suppose it could be because there are perhaps far too many character and your time is spent to spread out to really feel a strong connection to each individually.
Combat is practically the same as P4 however clearly an earlier stage. The inability to directly control anyone except the main character is deeply annoying at times. If anything, it helps you appreciate the P4 system even more.
In game visuals are on par with P4 but the Anime cut scenes are clearly inferior.
Soundtrack is OK, but doesn't feel as ...... personal as P4's.
To round up. I know this sounds like me bashing on the game, but in truth I'm not. P3 is a fantastic game and if not for it, P4 would never have been. I just wish I could go back and play them in the right order.
A great game, that is a little rough around the edges, but worthy of any JRPG fan's collection.… Expand
Dec 29, 2013Excellent music and great characters make this game truly satisfying from beginning to end. The game can be extremely unforgiving if someone wants to get 100% completion on their first play through but, do not let that deter you. The boss battles are very challenging and the combat is fluid and makes leveling up less of a grind.10/10.
May 2, 2013ATLUS always impresses me with their games. This one is no exception, in fact, this is probably my favorite RPG as of right now. All the attention to detail and things to do besides just explore and grind in the tower make it a stellar experience with tons of replay value.
Nov 13, 2012I played Persona 3 FES, so I will submit this review for both the original and FES. Persona 3 is right up there on my list of "greatest games of all-time" alongside Shenmue. The story in this game is simply the best ever, it's emotionally engaging, great voice actors and really puts you in some tough positions when you have choices to make. This is RPG at it's finest. I fell inlove with all the characters here and I never stopped. The gameplay is top-notch, dungeon crawling has never been more fun, the combat is the best I've seen for a JRPG, the use of Personas gives it a nice, unique twist to it. When you're not in combat, you're either in the dorm, at the mall, in school or exploring the other areas of the city. There is so much to do, and the game is extremely long, took me ~80 hours to complete this. Oh and lets not forget the soundtrack, simply one of the best, if not the best, of all time. If you love JRPGS, great stories, and great combat, make sure you purchase this game, you WILL NOT regret it.… Expand
A downright fantastic game! I loved every minute...even when it was somewhat repetitive. The story, the characters, there is nothing that I didnt love about this game. Even when other characters would be mad at me I was entertained...albeit a little hurt. This game really shows you how important it is to form bonds, even though we are not all out to save the world. The story kept me going and I was sad to see it end. The persona system itself is genius and the social links just add to the fun. I HIGHLY recommend this game.… Collapse
May 30, 2012This is the one of the best JRPG on the ps2, and to me it still is because of its originality and how different was the common RPG where you're the usual hero and go on a travel and do dungeons: in here, you are a student and you have a life to handle too, by attending school, making relationships (which is needed), but also having the exploration in THE dungeon and train in order to go on in the game, and in this part of the game you'll end up using Demons, or Personas, which are basically your set of magic spells, stats, weaknesses and defense. Except for the main character, which can use any persona, thus can change his stats at any time, the others are fixed characters with fixed personas. and they'll usually behave according to their "role" (Yukari is basically your healer, while Akihiko is your physical attacker with few spells). Nothing original on the fighting system, but it works great, and the plot of the game is very good and dark, with some few twists as well, and the setting for the story is very intriguing.....but with that said, I wouldn't recommend this game to everyone for few good reasons, actually 3: 1) This game is based on the dungeon crawler formula, which is basically "One dungeon with lots of floors", and that's it. Yes the floors are many (about 200+) and actually varied, but this formula isn't what many people expect on a home console and even though I don't mind I "kinda" got disappointed too on this regard...oh well, at least it's explained and makes sense. 2)The relationships I've mentioned are actually a MUST: you have to increase the Social Links, which is basically a way to measure the relationship with a certain friend or person, and you need it in order to create better personas via fusion; with that said, the game is basically a mix between the first point and this one, so....it can be a real big disappoint if you like more variety. But one more issue can be a problem, and that is...3) This game has a time limit!!! You have an (ingame) year of time to complete the game, but don't worry about it because you'll have TONS of time in order to finish, without mentioning time never actually passes when you do dungeons or play anything. But you still have a specific dead line and this aspect can be in conflict with the other 2 points, because you have to plan your interactions with your friends and ALSO train in the dungeon. Even though it's possible to increase all Social links to maximum you'll have to plan what to do next and, since you need to train in the dungeon, you'll won't be able to do some specific Social Links at night. Oh, you also have to train your character interaction stats (Charisma, Courage and Academics) in order to speak to some of them too! Anyway, these 3 points aren't real big flaws but I believe these 3 points can go in contrast and be annoying to each others, so that's why this 8, but if you like dungeon crawling, a good story, a simple yet good fighting system (I know the compagnions are AI controlled, but I actually had no big trouble with them, but yeah I wish I could control them), this game still and will remain one of the best RPGs on the ps2, and that isn't easy considering there are many good rpgs on it!… Expand
Jun 12, 2011I wasn't particularly impressed, but it is pretty addicting. Normally anime high school based games aren't my cup of tea either, but something about this game's build up was much better than games I've played previously in this sort of gameplay style. At first I wasn't sure why this was M-rated, but then when I got to the part where you have to shoot yourself in the head in order to attack with your persona(s) it became pretty clear (it's not a message you want to send to kids). There's a lot of interesting things you have to take into consideration in this game that most other games don't consider - like resting and relationships with other people... (well I guess a lot of games consider this, but I don't play a whole lot of them) Anyway, that's pretty much why I find it decent. Not really the best reason I suppose, but hey, I enjoyed this game. (it's got creepy incoherent animated scenes)… Expand
Apr 19, 2011anime in general needs to pick up this game as well as Persona 4. The Social Link system is an amazing way to mix up the action, and the end result is a perfect blend of dungeon crawling, monster collecting, and visual novel. The grind might be repetitive, but the boss battles are great and the story/characters are amazing. Definitely not an RPG to be missed!
A downright fantastic game! I loved every minute...even when it was somewhat repetitive. The story, the characters, there is nothing that I didnt love about this game.

Persona 3 is an amazingly unique title for the Playstation 2. Even if you're not a fan of dungeon crawls, Persona 3 deserves your attention for its maturity alone. Gamers that are sick of typical JRPG settings will love the new atmosphere and relish the creepy style.
Persona 3 holds its themes together with solid gameplay and cool characters, and thoroughly rewards you for the time you invest. [Aug 2007, p.96]
Persona 3 is a fairly unique game, in that it combines stale and tried elements to make them fresh. The presentation is good, and the environments are crisp. This is definitely a game only for the true RPG faithful.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- A 34-year-old man has been charged with first-degree murder in the shooting deaths of three people in Kansas City.
Jackson County prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced the charges Wednesday against Brandon Howell.
He also faces charges of first-degree assault, burglary, car theft and felon in possession of a firearm for critically injuring two others.
Police also said Howell assaulted three people at a north-side motel.
Howell is being held in the Jackson County jail. Kansas court records show he was paroled in 2011 after a conviction for a home invasion in Johnson County, Kansas.
Baker said 88-year-old Alice Hurst, 63-year-old son Darrel Hurst and 69-year-old Susan Choucroun were killed during an attempted car theft.
An SUV that went missing from the scene of the shootings was found near the motel.

September 2010
by Alex Roman, Managing Editor
With dwindling sales tax revenues causing significant budget shortfalls, most of the 78 percent of respondents who said they are experiencing budgeting issues have implemented some form of service cuts, fare increases or both.
Along with those budget issues, there was an actual drop of 891 vehicles for a total of 63,807 reported by transit agencies from the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico. New York City Transit (NYCT) still holds the top spot with a total 4,493 vehicles. NYCT is followed by Metro (Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority) (2,723), Pace Suburban Bus (2,392) and New Jersey Transit (2,373). The Toronto Transit Commission commandeers the number five slot with 1,998 vehicles.
Vancouver, Wash.-based C-Tran — one of this year's three new entries, along with Nashville Metropolitan Transit Authority (No. 87) and London, Ontario-based London Transit Commission (No. 90) - rounds out this year's Top 100 with 157 vehicles, while Cincinnati's South West Ohio Regional Transit Authority holds down the No. 50 slot.
Budget issues
With dwindling sales tax revenues causing significant budget shortfalls, most of the 78 percent of respondents who said they are experiencing budgeting issues have implemented some form of service cuts, fare increases or both. Many others have also been forced to lay off employees, freeze hiring and salary increases, and delay implementing new services or purchasing new equipment.
The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency (No. 26) reported that it approached its unions for givebacks, resulting in a successful agreement for most employees to take 12 unpaid days off per year, which equates to an almost 5 percent decrease in pay.
Additionally, 68 percent of respondents said they are having problems balancing rising demand for service with those budgeting issues. To help the situation, officials at the Utah Transit Authority (No. 32) say that every four months it modifies the system by dropping less efficient routes and adding or combining routes.
Brighter side
There is still much positive news to be found throughout the nation. One significant turn, for instance, came in April of this year when voters overwhelmingly passed a tax increase to help fund public transportation, which helped St. Louis Metro jump from No. 83 in 2009 to No. 60 this year. As a result of its tax victory, the agency immediately restored services that had been cut and has plans to increase some services in the near future.
Agencies around the nation are also continuing to do all they can to make their communities aware of the services they provide. In Albany, N.Y., the Capital District Transportation Authority (No. 65) reports that it is focusing on developing partnerships with businesses and organizations to get the word out and seek innovative ways to increase ridership.
The numbers
A closer look at the numbers reveals 47,540 buses are 35 feet or longer; 53 percent, or 33,955, of the total vehicles are low-floor applications; and 9 percent are demand response. In total, this year's respondents report that they intend to order 4,518 vehicles in the next year.
Alternative-fueled vehicles, at 17,345 total vehicles, make up 27 percent of the fleet totals reported for 2010, with compressed natural gas (8,180 vehicles) leading the way, followed by various types of hybrid-electric vehicles.
With all the budget and staff cuts going on around the nation, METRO would especially like to thank all of the transit agencies for participating this year. If you know a fleet that belongs on this list or have suggestions on how to improve our future lists, please let us know.

HgCapital's Parts Alliance acquires Unipart Automotive branches and jobs
Related fund data links
HgCapital's Parts Alliance has partnered with automotive parts business Andrew Page (AP) to acquire the business's assets of Unipart Automotive, a UK supplier of car parts and workshop consumables.
The deal, which is for an undisclosed sum, means that HgCapital's Parts Alliance will acquire a total of 12 of the former Unipart Automotive 33 branches, with Andrew Page to acquire the remaining 21 branches, securing 350 jobs.
The Parts Alliance is a central organisation for the UK automotive parts market based in Solihull, West Midlands. It employs over 60 people on behalf of its 12 member companies, who manage all aspects of their businesses from national sales and IT, to product management, marketing and central warehousing. Annual group turnover stands at over GBP350 million and customers range from independent garages to multi-branch workshops and fast-fits.
The addition of the 12 Unipart Automotive branches will further broaden The Parts Alliance's national presence, enabling it to better service its current clients, as well as provide access to new customers. This will facilitate HgCapital's goals to grow gross margin through exposure to new and competitive suppliers and improve EBITDA margin by increasing productivity levels.
Simon Cottle, a director on HgCapital's services team, says: "The opportunity to add 12 fully staffed and operational sites to HgCapital's Part's Alliance branch portfolio, while also ensuring the continued employment of a large part of a highly skilled and professional workforce, was one we were keen to capitalise on and we are pleased to have been able to move swiftly to make this deal happen. The clear synergies the acquisition offers means that already steady revenue growth will receive an immediate boost. We look forward to working with our new employees to continue to grow the business into one of the largest players in the UK automotive parts industry."
Peter Sephton, CEO of The Parts Alliance, says: "This is a tremendous opportunity to expand our branch network, further service our national account business, and secure the employment of many talented Unipart Automotive Group employees. The Parts Alliance now has the largest network coverage of any UK automotive parts supplier, with 278 branches across the UK and Ireland."

You will arrive to a spotless villa, made-up beds ready to relax in and a welcome pack in the fridge comprising water, milk, orange juice, bread, spread, sugar, tea, coffee and a bottle of red wine.
Facilities in the surrounding area: For those seeking all the facilities of a modern Spanish holiday, the villa is only 20 minutes away from the beach resort of Mojacar Playa and the fishing port of Garrucha. Extensive outdoor weekly markets are held Wednesdays in Mojacar Pueblo and Fridays in Garrucha and Turre.

Walking in and around Bedar: There are many scented promenades if you choose to walk in Bedar, El Pinar, Los Gallardos and surrounding areas. A mining area until the 1920s you will find evidence of caves, once lived in by the workers, and a railway track, now defunct, which constitutes an interesting walk where you will see the odd tunnel cut through the mountain side or a huddle of stones that may have been an engine house. If you leave Bedar and head through the hills towards La Serena and El Campico you will experience the solitude of the tiny villages and hamlets and see (and smell!) the goat farm in El Campico. But to counteract that you can wander through the hills and marvel at the space, peace and beauty of the mountains and brush your way through rosemary, thyme and sage growing wild and releasing a heady perfume. The older villagers still collect these herbs for their traditional dishes. Some of the walks are displayed on notice boards throughout the villages.

Western Europe's tallest building, The Shard, will be formally inaugurated in London today by His Excellency Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassem Bin Jabor Al Thani, Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of the State of Qatar and HRH the Duke of York KG. The event marks the physical completion of the exterior of the building -- which is fast becoming one of the most recognisable London skyline silhouettes. The inauguration represents the culmination of a 12-year journey to build a significant new landmark on the London skyline. Designed by renowned master architect Renzo Piano and developed by Sellar Property, The Shard stands at 310m (1,016 ft). The Shard's 95-stories will become a 'vertical town' comprising office space, residences, restaurants and the five-star Shangri-La Hotel. The building will also house the capital's highest public viewing gallery, The View from The Shard, which will offer 360° views of London stretching for over 40 miles and opens on 1 February 2013. The Shard is the highly visible landmark at the heart of London Bridge Quarter, a 2m sq ft gross mixed-use development which, once complete, will create more than 12,000 jobs. London Bridge Quarter is a key part of the regeneration of this part of London and benefits from access to one of London's key transport hubs, London Bridge Station. The development has transformed London Bridge Station delivering a new bus station and train station concourse, and this will be linked by a central plaza which will open in 2013. This plaza will also link The Shard to its' sister building The Place, a new 17 storey HQ building due to complete in Spring 2013. The Shard is owned by LBQ Limited, comprising the State of Qatar (the majority shareholder) and Sellar Property, with non-equity funding by Qatar National Bank. The inauguration will also be marked by a spectacular light and laser show, where lasers will reach out from The Shard to other major landmark buildings across the capital; including the London Eye, the Gherkin and Tower Bridge at approximately 22.15 (BST) on the evening of 5 July. This will be streamed live at http://www.the-shard.com.

Gartner Top Ten: Open Source, Green IT and Software as a Service
According to market researchers, Gartner, Open Source is one of the biggest IT trends for 2008 and the years to come. The analysts also see green IT, home users as opinion leaders, software as a service, 3D printers and Apple corp. as the Top Ten developments for the next few years.
According to forecasts, some 80 percent of all commercial software will contain at least some Open Source components by 2012. "Many open-source technologies are mature, stable and well supported" say the analysts. Thanks to free software, users and vendors would be able to cut costs and improve ROI (Return On Investment). Gartner forecasts considerable competitive disadvantages for companies that fail to seize this opportunity. According to Gartner, vendors should at least have an "embedded" Open Source strategy in order to stay competitive.
The market researchers all see further cost-cutting potential in Software as a Service (SaaS) and Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA). They believe that, by 2012, at least one third of application software in the enterprise will be purchased as a service subscription instead of on a product license basis. In contrast to the fixed price model, enterprises that opt for the SaaS model only pay for services they actually use. Higher bandwidth will make SOA generally available, and thanks to "Cloud Computing" applications will be independent of a specific infrastructure. Cloud Computing describes a system where the IT services within an enterprise have a similar structure and are used like the Internet. Another advantage for users: they will be more independent of service providers. Due to this development, Gartner forecasts a complete paradigm shift in purchasing behavior and new criteria for decision making in procurement.
The analysts have also identified green IT as another major trend, saying that environmental criteria will play an important role for more than one third of all IT organizations by 2009. This development has its roots in increasing energy costs and the desire to reduce costs: the "ecological footprint" of IT equipment as a whole will be more important in future. Gartner believes that in 75 percent of all enterprises consumption and the CO2 footprint of IT equipment throughout its service lifetime will be decisive hardware purchasing criteria by 2010. According to the market researchers, vendors have much ground to make good here: some vendors had little or no knowledge of the their products' ecological performance.
In the next few years, notebooks are likely to be replaced by cheaper and handier devices that will sell at prices of below US$ 400. Gartner also sees 3D printers on the up. Devices for less than US$ 10,000 have been announced for 2008, and this will make them a realistic purchasing proposal for smaller businesses and even home users. Gartner also sees a stronger role for the home user as an opinion leader in future: home users will influence more than half of all IT decisions. And this possibly explains why Gartner sees Apple as an enterprise with a bright future. According to Gartner, Apple will double its market share by 2012 thanks to user-friendly design and ongoing innovations over various platforms such as the iPod or iMac.
Gartner evaluated more than 100 predictions from trend monitoring and market developments to compile its "Top Ten" IT trends for 2008 and the years to come. Gartner views this forecast as an actionable recommendation for executives and IT experts.
