Q: Swapping to numpy arrays element wise I have two NumPy arrays l and g, and I want to swap the elements of l that are greater than the corresponding elements in g.
for example:
l = [0,19,1]
g = [1,17,2]

after the operation
l = [0,17,1]
g = [1,19,2]

the arrays could be multi dimensional. How do I do this efficiently in NumPy?

A: Just use np.minimum and np.maximum:
l = np.array([0,19,1])
g = np.array([1,17,2])
l, g = np.minimum(l, g), np.maximum(l, g)

Samira Surfs by Rukhsanna Guidroz illustrated by Fahmida Azim
I have been anxiously waiting for this middle grades 411 page book in verse to be published. The last few books I've read in this style with smart strong female protagonists have blown me away. This book unfortunately really fell flat. I think the difference is most OWN voice narrative do so well in prose when the emotion can be felt and explored deeply, so that when the story moves forward with sparse words the reader can forgive the gaps and jumps. This didn't have that insight, sadly, and just left a lot of holes for me. The author's family on her father's side is Muslim, she is Persian Indian Chinese, not Rohingya or Bangladeshi, and that isn't to say that she can't write a story about them, but it just felt lacking, and this is my assumption as to why. The author is a surfer, and that is where the detail and passion really shines. The book is fine, it just didn't inspire me or move me. It checks boxes for having characters with strong Muslim identities, highlighting a persecuted population, showing diversity within subcultures, and showing universal similarities, so I'm glad the book was written and is available, I just wanted it to be so much more.
Samira and her family have recently made the perilous escape from Burma to Bangladesh. Burma decided that the Rohingya must be killed and convinced the majority Buddhist to turn on their Muslim neighbors. Her parents and brother survived, but her grandparents, her Nana and Nani, drowned on the way. Samira's family were turned away from the over filled refugee camp in Cox's Bazar and have set up with others, their own meager living on the outskirts. Samira's father works for very little illegally as a shrimper, her brother as a waiter, and she sells eggs on the beach to tourist. Ever on the lookout for police and from angry Bangladeshis, life is lonely and frightening. Slowly Samira starts to make friends with other girls, her brother Khaled is helping translate and is beloved by his employer. When their father gets injured however, the family is thrown in turmoil as they need his income. At this same time Samira starts to be tempted by the ocean and the surfer girls that seem so free and fearless as they take on the waves. Knowing that her family will not support her surfing, her brother agrees to teach her how to surf in secret, like he is teaching her to read and write English. A surfing contest is announced for boys and girls with a substantial monetary prize for the winner, but Samira is not allowed to be in the water, and the Bangladeshis in charge of the surf boards are not happy with how much potential Samira has to win the competition.
I love that the story brings some awareness to the under represented Rohingya and that it shows resilience and strength. It talks about religion, they opt not to fast in Ramadan because the father is weak after his accident and he proclaims that if he isn't fasting no one should. The men go to the mosque, the mom talks about hijab. Cultural words are dropped in and foods mentioned. The illustrations are fun and engaging and do a good job of breaking up the text and keeping the reader connected. I loved the dad and his way of supporting his kids, I also loved the brother sister relationship, but ultimately, the plot holes just overwhelmed the straightforward story line.
I wanted to know more about the tourist near this refugee camp, who were they (Bangladeshis? foreigners?) and what was that dynamic like. I wanted to know where the eggs came from and how that was set up as a job for Samira. How come the family was nervous about Samira being on the water since that was how her grandparents died, but not her brother? I get that as a female grows the family might not want her in a bathing suit out swimming for modesty issues, but I didn't like how the book just chopped it up to swimming being against Islam, clearly she was taught to swim and obviously it isn't. I was looking forward to some big reveal about the brothers notebook of drawings. I thought maybe he would get them to a newspaper or get them shared somehow to give insight to what his people were experiencing. It seemed like it was teased that there was going to be a climax there, but there wasn't and it felt misleading. I didn't get the whole standoff with the other surfers protesting if Samira wasn't allowed to surf they wouldn't either. If the organizers weren't letting her that makes sense, but why would her parents care? There wasn't a clear connection and the speed and vagueness in which it was resolved was disappointing as it was presumably the point of the story.
Fairly clean. There is bullying and mention of death.
I don't think I would do this for a middle school book club. It is a solid middle grade read. Possibly it could be used to supplement a larger unit of study about refugees or particularly the Rohingya. Older readers will be left with more questions than they had when they began the book though, and wonder what the point of the story was at all.

Update: District Magistrate and District Police Super have been suspended over the Mathura violence.
Update: 24 people, including an SP and an SHO, have been killed in yesterday's massive clash between police and members of a sect who had encroached on government land here, even as tension prevailed in the area with police seizing a large cache of munition from the site and arresting 320 people.
Lucknow: Twenty-One people, including an SP and an SHO, have been killed in the massive clash between police and encroachers that broke out in Mathura on Thursday even as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has ordered an inquiry.
Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, who spoke to Mr. Yadav, expressed anguish over the loss of lives and assured all necessary help to the State government.
19 people have been killed apart from SP City Mukul Dwivedi and Farah SHO Santosh Yadav, Commissioner (Agra Division) Pradeep Bhatnagar said on Friday. A magisterial probe has also been ordered, he added.
The violence had erupted when police were trying to evict illegal occupants, believed to be of Azad Bharat Vidhik Vaicharik Kranti Satyagrahi, from Jawahar Bagh on Thursday on the directions of the Allahabad High Court.
In Lucknow, Mr. Yadav ordered a probe by the divisional commissioner of Mathura, an official spokesperson said. DGP Javed Ahmed and Principal Secretary (Home) Debashish Panda have rushed to Mathura.
Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said he has reviewed the situation in Mathura. "I have spoken to the Chief Minister of Uttar Pardesh and reviewed the situation in Mathura. I have assured him of all possible help from the Centre. I am anguished over the loss of lives in the incident in Mathura. May God give strength to the bereaved families," Mr. Rajnath said.
Police said some vehicles bearing Madhya Pradesh registration number have been found. "The wrath of people against encroachers was such that when they were retreating, they were severely beaten by the public," an official said.
The activists not only used hand grenades, but also opened fire from automatic weapons after taking position on tree tops, District Magistrate Rajesh Kumar had said.
The area was filled with smoke following explosions from hand grenades and LPG cylinders and several huts caught fire, he said. Over two years ago, activists of splinter group of Baba Jai Gurudeo had occupied hundreds of acres of land of Jawahar Bagh on the pretext of 'dharna'. Their demands included "cancellation" of election of President and Prime Minister of India, replacement of existing currency with 'Azad Hind Fauj' currency, sale of diesel at the rate of 60 litres for one rupee and petrol at the rate of 40 litres for one rupee.
The High Court had, acting on a PIL, directed the authorities to vacate the land. In April, Mathura district administration has issued a notice to the protesters asking them to vacate the land. The land falls under the Horticultural Department of the U.P. government, and attempts by its officials to evict the people had failed.

How are the career opportunities for college graduates in Washington D.C.?
You shouldn't have to pound the pavement for long in D.C. Bouncing back vigorously from a tough period of low economic growth, Washington D.C. is experiencing an economic boom that bodes well for graduates. The District's steadily low unemployment rate has been hovering around an average of only 6.5 percent since November 2015. On top of that, you'll find fairly high salaries, outstanding (maybe even overwhelming) networking opportunities, and internships everywhere, especially if you're going into politics. One downside though: everyone dreams to "make it" just like you. Thrive on that healthy competition and you'll find success in D.C.
Growing industries? What major companies/industries are hiring what type of graduates/skills in Washington D.C.?
While the foundation of D.C.'s job market is made up of business service jobs (think finance, law, IT, etc.), you can also correctly assume the area has government jobs galore, both full-time and contract. Additionally, you'll find plenty of positions in the region's several universities, such as Georgetown University, George Washington University, the University of Maryland, and Virginia Tech. Tourism is a constant as well. And again, politics consume the D.C. world. If you see yourself working as a lobbyist, assistant, strategist, or something else political sciencey, D.C. is certainly the place to get your foot in the door.
Is Washington D.C. more of a college town or a great place to start a career and family? What communities are best?
As one of the most unique locales in the country, D.C. is a town for professionals, for the movers and shakers new and old. Whether you're partying in Adams Morgan every weekend or commuting to work on the metro every morning (or both), you oughta be prepared to live among aspiration.
Split into four "quadrants," D.C. has four major communities each with its own little pockets of more nuanced neighborhoods known as wards. For college grads, Columbia Heights in North-Central, Dupont in the East, and Foxhall or the Palisades in the Northwest offer affordable housing and lots of peers.
While there are family-friendly residential communities, D.C. doesn't quite offer your traditional suburban experience, at least not at a price the typical recent grad can afford. It's a great place to kick off a career, but once grads have established themselves and decide they're ready to start a family, many end up moving to the surrounding burbs of Rockville, Gaithersburg and Alexandria.
What do the locals in Washington D.C. like to do for fun?
Work. Just kidding, sort of. When it comes to fun, the D.C. grad's fun is in the chase of a magnificent career while making ends meet, and doing leisure right in the downtime. High-energy nightlife is definitely accessible if desired, from quaint bars to upscale restaurants, to the excellent selection of concerts. Football is big here too. No matter what football team you're rooting for, you're bound to find a bar full of like-minded fans to root along with. (There's a good bit of hockey enthusiasm as well. Go Caps!) And with so much free art and history surrounding you, taking a walk around the Lincoln Memorial (free) or a bike ride along the trails, or having a good old fashioned picnic after visiting the Smithsonian (free) are great activities for your weekend outing.
What's the dating scene like in Washington D.C.? Will I meet my perfect mate?
D.C. is teeming with motivated, well-dressed, well-educated 20- and 30-something-year-old workhorses who you can singly mingle with. Most people around your college-grad age will be living with roomies, since the housing here isn't exactly cheap. And of course, this is D.C., so politics are bound to come up in conversation. You might run into a few big egos with strong opinions flowing that don't flow with yours, but luckily, the District is quite a melting pot with someone to date for everybody...Unless you land a job in the CIA, the NSA, the FBI, or even NASA. Think your date can handle the secrecy? Eh, you'll both get used to it.

I wrote a story on Tuesday's minor offshore earthquake and New Jersey's temblor risk for today's Asbury Park Press.
If anything, the risk of a significant quake has grown since I wrote a Jan. 24, 1999, story on the issue.
To New Jerseyans, who consider earthquakes a "left coast" threat, it may come as a shock that the region might be overdue for a damaging quake.
Fortunately, there's lots of information on the Web that can help us understand the risk and respond to it.
– U.S. Geological Survey information on magnitude 3.9 earthquake east of New Jersey on Nov. 30.
– New Jersey Geological Survey information on earthquakes.
– "Earthquake Risk in New Jersey," by Daniel R. Dombroski Jr. of the New Jersey Geological Survey.
– "Earthquake Loss Estimation Study For New Jersey: Geologic Component," including estimated losses from hypothetical quakes in Monmouth, Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Morris, Passaic, Somerset and Union counties.
– U.S. Geological Survey Earthquake Hazards Program.
– U.S. Geological Survey New Jersey Earthquake Information.
– New Jersey Office of Emergency Management earthquake information.
– Lamont-Doherty Cooperative Seismographic Network.
– Multi-Disciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering Research.
– Federal Emergency Management Agency Earthquake Risk by State and Territory.
– U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Fact Sheet on Seismic Issues for Existing Nuclear Power Plants.

felt a tremor today around 12 noon aug 23, 2011.
Anything to justify wasting more tax dollars on "research" that has been secretly pre-determined to somehow support cap and tax, carbon credits, and the "redistribution of wealth".
It's shill science…just like the argument that La Palma will slide into the sea and cause an east coast tsunami.


One day after an inauguration marred by violence, vast crowds of demonstrators convened in cities nationwide for the markedly more peaceful Women's March.
Hundreds of thousands of women and their allies assembled in Washington, D.C., on Saturday for the Women's March. Attendees chanted and sang, carried signs and banners, and said a great many rude things about President Donald Trump. People did the same thing in scores of "sister marches" in cities across the country—across the world. Their reasons for participating were as varied as the public squares where they assembled. They all had one thing in common, though, aside from an allergy to President Trump. In the largest Women's March demonstrations nationwide, nobody got arrested.
No one was arrested in Seattle, where at least 120,000 people marched from Judkins Park to Seattle Center. No one was arrested in Chicago, where 250,000 demonstrators shut down parts of the Loop. No one was arrested in New York City, where 400,000 people took to Fifth Avenue to give President Trump what-for in his own hometown. No one was arrested in Los Angeles, site of the largest assembly in the country—750,000 demonstrators. And no one was arrested in the nation's capital, where half a million joined together to affirm their rights and defy the president who had been inaugurated 24 hours earlier.
According to spokespersons in all of those police departments, the five assemblies drew more than 1 million demonstrators—quite possibly double that number—and landed zero of them in lock-up.
These cities weren't isolated, either. The march in Austin, Texas, drew some 50,000 protesters—probably the biggest gathering in the city's history, if not the state's—and led to no arrests, according to a police spokesperson there.
In a few cities with large protests, namely Boston, Philadelphia, and San Francisco, police spokespersons didn't immediately return phone calls. And with nearly 700 solidarity Women's March events taking place on six continents, it's impossible to guarantee that there wasn't an arrest somewhere.
Yet D.C. seemed like a different city than it was the day before, when isolated bands of anti-Trump activists shattered storefront windows and torched a limousine during the inauguration; more that 200 arrests were reported, with several injuries among police and civilians. On Saturday, instead of firing tear gas and flash grenades, police officers were giving Women's March participants directions. Only one other D.C. event in recent memory compares: President Barack Obama's 2009 inauguration, which also saw huge crowds and no arrests.
For the organizers and attendees of the national Women's March, this is an impressive feat. It's hard to imagine 2 million people doing anything without someone getting arrested for something. Police deserve a lot of credit, too. Not only in D.C., where law enforcement has a lot of experience with public protest, but in all the cities and towns with sizable sister marches that aren't often given over to mass demonstrations. Given the level of vitriol displayed on both sides of the nation's political chasm recenly, the spectacle of millions of citizens engaged in a lawful and peaceful exercise of their rights served as a welcome respite from all the Nazi punching and bleak talk of "American carnage" that dominated the previous day's events.

A SELF-STYLED street preacher was sentenced to death today in the killings of three down-and-out men lured by bogus job offers posted on Craigslist.
The jury that convicted Richard Beasley of murder recommended that he face execution. The judge had the option of reducing the sentence to life in prison.
Beasley, 53, was convicted of teaming up with a teenager in 2011 to use the promise of jobs on a southeast Ohio farm to lure them into robberies. Three men were killed, and a fourth who was wounded testified at Beasley's trial.
The judge read the three death sentences in a hushed courtroom crowded with victims' relatives, some of them holding back tears.
Beasley skipped the chance to speak to the judge before the sentencing on the aggravated murder convictions. He listened to the verdict with his head on his chest, sitting in a wheelchair he uses for back pain.
Later, about to be sentenced on other crimes including kidnapping, Beasley said he sympathised with the families of victims but said he was innocent and expects to have his conviction overturned on appeal.
Beasley's co-defendant, who was 16 at the time of the crimes, was too young to face the death penalty. Brogan Rafferty was sentenced to life in prison without the chance of parole on his conviction last year.
Fresh start in life
One victim was killed near Akron, and the others were shot at a southeast Ohio farm during bogus job interviews.
The slain men were Ralph Geiger, 56, of Akron; David Pauley, 51, of Norfolk, Virginia; and Timothy Kern, 47, of Massillon, Ohio. All were looking for a fresh start in life, prosecutors said repeatedly during the trial.
The survivor, Scott Davis, now 49, testified that he heard the click of a gun as he walked in front of Beasley at the reputed job site. Davis, who was shot in an arm, knocked the weapon aside, fled into the woods and tipped police.
Beasley didn't turn around to watch Davis tearfully denounce him and thank the judge for handing down the death sentence.
Davis said he was grateful to be alive and told the relatives of slain victims, "They didn't deserve what this animal did to them."
Debra Bruce, Pauley's twin sister, choked back tears as she told Beasley, "You took my best friend, confidant and my twin."
Bruce said she was sickened by references to Beasley as a preacher or chaplain. "No true man of God would take lives," she said.
The jury recommended execution after hearing two hours of testimony from witnesses, including Beasley's tearful mother, who were called to portray him sympathetically and press for leniency.
Carol Beasley testified that her son had a troubled childhood and suffered physical abuse by his stepfather. She also said she learned within the past year that her son had been sexually abused by neighbourhood youngsters.
The defence also called a psychologist, John Fabian, who testified that Beasley suffers from depression, alcohol abuse, low self-esteem and a feeling of isolation, all possible results of a troubled, abusive childhood.
Beasley will become the seventh person from Summit County currently on Ohio's death row.

India reports over 44,000 Covid-19 cases
Wed, Nov 25, 2020 3:00 PM
India has registered 44,376 new confirmed coronavirus (Covid-19) cases in the past 24 hours.
The latest increase has taken the total number of cases to 9.22 million, the Health Ministry said Wednesday (Nov 24). Deaths rose by 481, driving the total fatalities to 134,699.
India's confirmed daily toll has remained below 50,000 for a few weeks, after peaking in September. But several cities have witnessed a surge in cases, prompting some state governments to clamp additional restrictions to contain the spread of the virus.
In Mumbai in southern India, travelers from New Delhi, Rajasthan and Gujarat will have to undergo mandatory coronavirus tests before entering the city. The three northern states are witnessing the latest surge in infections.
The situation remains grim in New Delhi, which is recording the highest number of cases in the country. The capital is reporting nearly 100 deaths on average every day for the last two weeks.

Russian spy murder plot thickens
Marketplace Staff Nov 27, 2006
https://www.marketplace.org/2006/11/27/russian-spy-murder-plot-thickens/
KAI RYSSDAL: The mystery deepens in the case of the poisoned Russian spy. Alexander Litvinenko died in London on Thursday. Today, Britain's Home Secretary said traces of the radiation that killed him have been found at three other places in London.
Litvinenko had been a vocal opponent of Russian President Vladamir Putin. There's speculation that Litvinenko was poisoned by the Russian security services. And today's Times of London says there may be a link to another scandal involving the Russian government: the takeover of Yukos, the giant oil conglomerate.
Tony Halpin is one of the reporters who broke the story. We reached him in Moscow. Tony, welcome to the program.
TONY HALPIN: Good evening, Kai.
RYSSDAL: Remind us, if you would, what the Yukos situation was with Moscow and the government taking it over.
HALPIN: Well, as you recall, the pursuit of Yukos and the jailing of its founder, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, in 2003, was pretty much the most controversial action of the Kremlin since Mr. Putin came to power. Yukos was broken up and most of it sold off to another state company, Rosneft. It proved a very controversial issue because it's gone to the root of the question of whether private property is protected in Russia, and also raises the issue of how many of these billionaires — these so-called oligarchs of Russia — acquired their fortunes in the first place.
RYSSDAL: And your paper is reporting today that Mr. Litvinenko had some information about Moscow's conduct during the Yukos episode.
HALPIN: Yes. It's emerged that Leonid Nevzlin, the number two at Yukos who fled after the Kremlin started pursuing the company and now lives in Israel, has told us that Mr. Litvinenko came to Israel not so long ago and passed on documents which he said related to the whole Yukos investigation. Mr. Nevzlin has said that it's his duty to pass on this file because he had said that Mr. Litvinenko had found information on crimes, as he put it, that were committed with the Russian government's direct participation. We don't yet know what is in that dossier, which Mr. Nevzlin said he was going to pass to Scotland Yard. But clearly he thinks it's pertinent to the poisoning and subsequent death of Mr. Litvinenko.
RYSSDAL: Let me take a step back and put this into context for a second. Russia has in the past year, 18 months, perhaps longer than that, become very muscular in its foreign policy, based on what analysts are saying is a great deal of confidence in its oil and natural gas strength. That it is now an oil superpower.
HALPIN: Well, yes, that's right. And not only oil but gas as well, of course. Europe gets something like 25 percent of its gas from Russia. This oil superpower aspect of it has come along with the rising price of oil. Along with that has come immense wealth and with that wealth renewed confidence in foreign affairs on the part of Russia.
RYSSDAL: Does this confidence extend to leverage over the U.K. and whether or not London might be somehow persuaded, I guess, to not pursue this investigation?
HALPIN: You know, I don't think that's the case. Although clearly the U.K. has a great deal of interest now in Russian energy and the Russian energy sector — not only as consumers but as investors. Companies like BP are very active in the Russian market. But at the same time, the British authorities take a great deal of offense to having a British citizen — which Mr. Litvinenko had recently become — murdered on British soil.
RYSSDAL: And it's a difficult situation for London, too. They don't want this international financial capital to become a stalking ground, I guess, for people who have enemies there.
HALPIN: Oh, absolutely. London is a global city. There are people from all over the world who live there, who work there, who are there for different reasons — some of them to do with political asylum. The reason they're there and the reason they're contributing to London life is because they feel safe. If that safety is threatened or they feel their security is no longer guaranteed, then they may look elsewhere. And some of those people, of course, are very wealthy — as Boris Berezovsky, who was Mr. Litvinenko's patron in many ways, has shown. He's a very wealthy, former Russian oligarch who's now in exile and living in London.
RYSSDAL: Tony Halpin with The Times of London in Moscow. Thank you, Tony.
HALPIN: Thank you.

Jos Buttler's run out at the hands of R Ashwin has polarised the cricketing world.
Some criticised the move as Buttler became the first victim of 'Mankading' in the history of the IPL.
While many lauded Ashwin's move, there were plenty of memes shared on social media of the incident. While some pointed to a reference to 'Mankading' in a scene from Lagaan, others shared memes to capture the mood of the debate about the rules of the game and the spirit in which it should be played.
Ashwin's jersey says "Aaj Tak – Sabse Tez"
Buttler's dismissal sparked a collapse for RR, who then lost seven wickets. Chasing down 185, the side only managed to get to 170/9 in 20 overs.
Ashwin defended his actions. "It was very instinctive. It was not planned. It is there within the rules of the game. I don't know where the understanding of the spirit of the game comes because, if it is there in the rules it is there," the bowler said in the post-match press conference.
Interestingly, Buttler had been 'Mankaded' by Sachithra Senanayake during an ODI against Sri Lanka at Birmingham in 2014. Buttler had defended the bowler after he was criticised. "It is obviously the batsman's error," he had said, adding: "If you walk out of your ground and someone wants to do it, it is in the laws of the game. It is all part of the game."

Japanese new product advantage: A comparative examination
Cheryl Nakata, Subin Im
Over the last few decades, Japanese companies have been at the cusp of innovation, introducing new products to receptive buyers throughout the world. Toyota's Prius, a hybrid gas-electric car, and Casio's Exilim, a palm-sized digital camera, are just a few of the products recently developed and successfully marketed from Japan. The key reason for these products' popularity appears to be built-in advantage, or superiority, over rival offerings. For example, the Prius saves on fuel costs, emits almost no fumes, requires little maintenance, and sells at an affordable price. Despite such successes, Japanese companies are unable to rest on any laurels. Nipping at their heels are South Korean firms, which are vying with Japanese businesses in their traditionally strong sectors of consumer electronics and automotives. Samsung is perhaps the most notable challenger. The firm has introduced a flood of new products in the last several years, winning design accolades and many new customers for its premium cell phones, plasma flat-screen TVs, and ultra-thin computer monitors, among other innovations. In several of these categories, the firm is the global market leader or is a close second in sales. Along with several other companies based in South Korea (referred hereafter as Korea), Samsung is making great strides in innovation, mastering the ability to create advantageous new products.

"To put the milk to sleep... is a phrase that is still used in Anatolia and it means to make yogurt, however you need to be really careful as to how the milk is put to sleep. If the milk is put to sleep by different people, the outcomes will be different. If we use rennet or casein as the starter, then we end up with cheese. Cheese was actually invented by mistake. The first cheeses were milk that had soured and gone bad. Because of this, in Anatolia some cheeses are still called "ekşimik" (soured milk).
The guest speaker of the seminar, Sabri Özderici attending from Mustafakemalpasa, who is a 3rd-generation cheese monger, took the stage and talked about cheese-making traditions he has learned from his family. He also mentioned the major differences between cheese-making in local places using local techniques, and making cheese in industrial places.
After the seminar, the participants had a chance to taste 16 different types of local cheeses along with traditional foods made with cheese. Among the traditional foods were bacu (fried hard cow's milk cheese), cingen salad (a salad with white cheese, tomatoes and herbs), 2 types of börek (savoury pastry) with cheese, zucchini fritters with cheese, cheese-stuffed zucchini cooked in olive oil, and cheese halva.


Online Scheduling: on the Rise in Google and a Local Search Ranking Factor?
I want to emphasize that I have not tested this – even to the extent you can "test" anything in local search.
1. Google seems to integrate online "Make an appointment" software into local businesses' knowledge graphs more often than it used to.
2. Businesses with the "Make an appointment" feature in their knowledge graphs often seem to outrank businesses without it.
I've also seen FullSlate and PatientConnect365.com pop up on a few occasions. Also, Jesse Palmer of LoveandScience has shown me an example of a HealthGrades scheduler appearing in the knowledge graph.
Use one of those services and you'll probably get the "Make an appointment" feature showing up in Google when people search for you by name.
It's not only for doctors. I've seen it for accountants, massage therapists, and even cryotherapy saunas. It's for anyone who wants to give clients / patients / customers the ability to book an appointment online using a third-party scheduler.
That's nice, but why might it be a local ranking factor? We local SEOs can be a superstitious bunch, and sometimes throw around that 6-letter F-word with abandon.
Links to booking options will appear automatically for eligible businesses. There's not currently a way to request this service for your business.
2. The knowledge graph has replaced the local Google page as the place to find info on local businesses in Google. seems to care about what's in it and it's shoved in your face, whereas your Google Places Plus My Business page is very hard to get to.
3. As Big Brother, Google must know whether and how searchers use with the online scheduling interface. One thing I've noticed is that a business using online scheduling only tends to outrank other businesses if it's got reviews (Google reviews and others). As with Google Maps driving-direction lookups, a combination of online bookings and an influx of reviews might suggest to Google that customers do business with you and live to tell about it.
Unlike most spammers – you're serious enough to fork over.
People can actually meet you, probably at your place of business.
By the way, on the off-chance you own an online-scheduling site, you can apply to be included.
Have you noticed more instances of "Make an appointment" lately?
Did I miss any appointment-scheduling services that cause that to pop up?
What do you think about the theory that online scheduling might be a minor ranking factor?
Great read, especially how the appt booking service usually only helps someone outrank if they already have reviews.
Making a guess, if this goes viral, Google will get into the online appointment scheduling business, it seems Google always wants to be the per-lead vendor, they're just testing and testing to see how this works out.
I am a fan of Vcita, wonder if anyone has seen their online appointment booking service show up for this.
That seems a good guess, Justin. Google's dalliance last year with HomeAdvisor suggests to me they're pretty interested.
Yeah, I have no idea why Google incorporates some scheduling services and not others. But I suspect over time we'll see many more than the half-dozen or so I've noticed and listed in the post.
I have a few clients who use Demand Force. Is there some type of special package they have to have in order for this to show up? Or is it just in beta/testing in certain areas?
Good question, Joy. DemandForce's booking feature has been showing up in the KG since last year, and I seem to be seeing more booking integration in KGs everywhere, so I doubt that it's still beta/testing.
What industries are your DemandForce-user clients in, and how long have they been using it? As you know, Google has certain criteria for getting the booking feature to show up in your KG, and I don't know what those criteria are, but this might help us get a rough idea.
This is great, I never knew this was even possible.
I am trialling a scheduling, payment and CRM system called vCita which has a nice WordPress plugin and I have let them know about that application process.
So you just let vCita know about the application, correct?
PS: Haven't seen this in the AU. Guess it's US only for now.
Wonder if Google will eventually provide a way for us to mark up this info so we can use an in-house appointment setting solutions.
Good question, but I doubt it'll happen.
Healthgrades is another service that Google is using to make appointments. What's interesting is that my client doesn't have a deal with HG for bookings, it's happening without any effort on our part. We sure would like to be able to track those bookings somehow.
I have other clients using ZocDoc, but the option to schedule an appointment isn't appearing.
Interesting. Can you add a link here or email it to me? I'd love to take a look.
I've been hesitant to have online scheduling. I like my office to have control of the schedule. They can cluster book appointments, leaving larger gaps for new patients, meetings, report writing, reading this blog, etc. I think if the schedule is free to the public my schedule will be left with mini-gaps that are useless to me. I wonder if scheduling software has a way around this?
Phil, have you seen Google integrate scheduling into results in Canada yet?
That's a great point, Jason, and I agree. Google shows the scheduling in the KG precisely as an alternative to clicking through to your site. I suspect they'll monetize it as an AdWords extension at some point.
I am seeing it in Canada, albeit not as often.
Could it just be that anyone who's embraced the online scheduling functionality (and staffed for such) are also those setting aside marketing dollars for SEO that works, such as gaining local citations and writing highly clickable, locally-relevant content? I could definitely imagine the two being correlated IRL.
I agree, Scott: Those businesses are probably more proactive in general. Who knows where the rankings benefit – if there is any – comes from.
FYI, I did take pains to point out that this was just speculation on my part.
I just saw the option on a few of my clients. Do you think it's okay to just link it to the website's contact page and it might still have the same SEO punch? I don't have any of those booking software accounts. Thanks for the great post.
I doubt there's much or any direct SEO value to this. I suspect you'd get a bump if people consistently and long-term clicked on your page and took the next step – Google knows their every move – but that's just my guess. Even if that's the case, it's too early to tell. In the meantime, you'd just add a URL simply for the sake of would-be customers/clients/patients.
Does anyone know a booking system that integrates with google my business and google tag manager at best or at the very least google analytics?

Das Museum Schloss Fechenbach (früher Kreis- und Stadtmuseum Dieburg) zeigt historische Gegenstände aus Dieburg und dem Landkreis Darmstadt-Dieburg. Es befindet sich in der Eulengasse 8 am Rande der historischen Dieburger Altstadt im Schloss Fechenbach.

Sammlung
Die Sammlung ist der Archäologie und Volkskunde gewidmet und beinhaltet Stücke aus allen historischen Epochen, wobei traditionell die Römerzeit einen Großteil der Ausstellungsfläche einnimmt. Nach einem Umbau (abgeschlossen 2007) konnten auch die Ausstellungen der Vorgeschichte und der Neuzeit erweitert werden. Regelmäßige Sonderausstellungen ergänzen das Programm.

Die Ausstellungen der Vorgeschichte, Römerzeit und des Mittelalters befinden sich im Keller des Gebäudes. Im Treppenhaus sind verschiedene Steindenkmäler präsentiert, darunter eine Kopie des Kleestädter Leugensteins. Der erste Raum des Kellergeschosses enthält eine Vorstellung verschiedener Methoden der Archäologie.

Vorgeschichte
Die frühesten Funde menschlicher Besiedlung sind im zweiten Kellerraum mit dem Schwerpunkt Jungsteinzeit ausgestellt. Die fruchtbaren Lössböden des Dieburger Beckens ermöglichten bereits früh eine Besiedlung der Region, die sich in zahlreichen Funden widerspiegelt. Die Funde illustrieren die Lebensumstände der einzelnen Epochen. Jeweils einen weiteren Raum nimmt die Bronzezeit sowie die darauf folgende Eisenzeit ein.

Römerzeit
Als Hauptort der Civitas Auderiensium gibt es aus dem römischen Dieburg zahlreiche Fundstücke. Die Abteilung ist nach sieben verschiedenen Schlagworten gegliedert:
 Unter dem Stichwort "Handel und Gewerbe" wird unter anderem ein Modell der Römischen Villa Haselburg gezeigt.
 "Bautechnik" illustriert anhand der Funde verschiedene technische Errungenschaften der Römerzeit, darunter die Funktionsweise einer Hypokaustheizung. Regionale Funde von Verkleidungsziegeln mit Rollstempeldekor erläutern die Möglichkeiten zum Wandverputz.
 Steindenkmäler aus Dieburg und der Umgebung werden in der Abteilung "Götterwelt" gezeigt, darunter eine Jupitergigantensäule.
 Unter "Bestattung" werden vorwiegend Funde aus den sechs römischen Gräberfeldern gezeigt, die um Dieburg ausgegraben wurden.
 "Ess- und Trinksitten" zeigt vorwiegend anhand von Keramikfunden die Ernährungsgewohnheiten der damaligen Zeit.
 Das Triclinium ermöglicht es, wie in der Römerzeit üblich, auf der Liege eines Speisesaals Platz zu nehmen.
 Glanzstück der römischen Abteilung ist das rekonstruierte Mithräum mit Kultbild, das durch ein Multimediaangebot unterstützt wird.

Mittelalter
In den beiden letzten Kellerräumen befindet sich die Sammlung zum Mittelalter. Sie enthält Funde aus fränkischer Zeit sowie aus der seit dem 12. Jahrhundert fassbaren Burg und der frühen Stadtgeschichte Dieburgs. Bereits im Erdgeschoss ist ein Raum den Dieburger Adelsfamilien, besonders den Ulner von Dieburg und den Herren von Groschlag gewidmet.

Neuzeit
Seit der römischen Zeit ist in Dieburg das Töpferhandwerk nachweisbar. Ein Raum zeigt die Dieburger Töpfereigeschichte von der Römerzeit über das Mittelalter bis in das 20. Jahrhundert.

Von den weiteren Räumen des Erdgeschosses ist jeweils einer der Baugeschichte des Schlosses, den Freiherren von Fechenbach als Namensgeber des Schlosses sowie dem 19. und 20. Jahrhundert gewidmet. Letzterer enthält einen Kolonialwarenladen.

Im Obergeschoss befinden sich heute ein Saal, Tagungsräume, die Sonderausstellung und das Museumscafé.

"Operation Offset" is what the Republicans are calling their budget cut plan to pay for Hurricane Katrina. Will there be tax cuts for the rich? Nope. The great majority of the proposed cuts target the elderly and the poor, heavily targeting Medicare. They eliminate all federal funding for energy conservation, the "Energy Star" program, energy efficient vehicles, hydrogen vehicles, high-speed rail, light rail, PBS, the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, AmeriCorps, the "Even Start" program, the Presidential Election Campaign Fund, security/anti-drug funding for innercity schools, and all federal loans to grad students. Also facing cuts are the Global AIDS Initiative, the EPA, the Center for Disease Control, pensions and healthcare plans for retired federal workers, job programs and revitalization funds for poor neighborhoods, the school lunch program, community health centers, and health care for soldiers.

There's a special event that happens every second Sunday at Toronto's St. Michael's Cathedral. Toronto's chief shepherd, Archbishop Thomas Collins, welcomes the faithful for an evening of Vespers and Lectio Divina. This divine reading is a meditation on scripture. For the past nine months the Archbishop has been working through the Sermon on the Mount. A couple weeks ago, he completed his final meditation (Matthew 7:13-29) on this beautiful portion of scripture found in the Gospel of Matthew and this Sunday, Salt + Light will be broadcasting it.
"Lectio Divina is a prayer. It is not a teaching. It's not catechesis. It's prayer." the Archbishop told me and a colleague recently, "It's an encounter with Jesus and the word of God. It is not a study of the word of God."
Lectio Divina is an excellent way to stop and reconsider Scripture -- to read it slowly, to contemplate it, to digest it, and to give it the time and attention it deserves.
You can catch Archbishop Collins' last edition of Lectio Divina on the Sermon on the Mount this Sunday, June 29th, at 9pm ET, only on Salt + Light Television!

"Puppet Nation" And "Point of Order" Garner Six SAFTA Wins For Both Worlds
Home/Puppet Nation, ZANews/"Puppet Nation" And "Point of Order" Garner Six SAFTA Wins For Both Worlds
CAPE TOWN: The most recent South African Film & Television Awards (SAFTAs), the 11th annual SAFTAs, again proved to be a momentous event for Both Worlds. Off the back of ten nominations for its two headline productions, Puppet Nation ZA and Point of Order, the Cape Town based production company returned with six Golden Horns.
Both Worlds' other SAFTA nominee, Puppet Nation ZA, carried on its stellar history at the SAFTAs with five wins including its fourth consecutive win as Best TV Comedy.
Now in its 12th season, Puppet Nation is an established name in South African satire and comedy, featuring a cast of latex local and international celebrities and politicians, from Jacob Zuma to George Clooney, DJ Fresh to Donald Trump. Not only popular with audiences, even those satirised by the show, but also critics, Puppet Nation has garnered a slew of accolades including more than 20 SAFTAS, two Writers Guild of South Africa Muse Awards, 10 IAB Bookmarks and two International Emmy nominations.
Only having debuted in 2016, Point of Order received the honour of being named "Best TV Game Show." Based on the shenanigans in the South African parliament, Point of Order is a comedy panel show hosted by the brilliant Tumi Morake. The show allows for SA's top comedians to introduce important and vital new laws ‐ like singing in the shower should feature 90% local content ‐ and special guests a chance to talk well, politics almost like real MPs do. Perhaps with only a little more sensibility. The second season of the now award-winning show is scheduled to go to air on the 1st of April on Starsat One (Channel 120) with the third season in pre-production.
