Nudity automatically raises the stakes of any situation. Swimming in a shark tank? Pretty wild. But swimming in a shark tank in the nude? That's the stuff of epic poetry. Burning down a house while making cookies on a grill? Also insane, but not nearly as nuts (pun intended) as doing so naked. And finally, there's arresting a naked man. That sounds intense enough already. But doing so while you're also in the buff? Well, that's bananas (pun intended).
This incredible event occurred in real life on Friday evening in Sweden. Apparently, an off-duty (naked) police officer in a sauna noticed that the (also naked) man next to him was a drug offender who'd fled after his sentencing and previously been found guilty of attempting to assault a public servant.
"By a coincidence, and rather amusingly, they both recognized each other in the sauna," Christoffer Bohman, deputy police chief in the Stockholm district of Rinkeby, told SVT, later cited by The Local. "It's easier to take action when you have your colleagues with you, and all your tools and equipment. This was as stripped-down as it gets -- in more ways than one."
Neither the officer nor the fugitive were identified, but a tribute was made to the au naturel cop on Rinkeby Police's Facebook page.
"To our dear colleague who kept your head cool when it was heating up to a potentially dangerous situation, despite being on your day off and relaxing in a spa," the post read, which was titled "Naked Arrest," according to a translation from The Local. "Despite finding yourself in a packed sauna with a wanted criminal, you kept your wits about you and carried out an arrest while considering the needs of all." The post added: "We are everywhere. Even if you don't see us, we are there."
He will reportedly receive overtime pay for the arrest.

Naukluft Hiking Trail:
A 120km round trip hiking trail that takes 8 days to complete.
It is however possible to complete only the first part of the hike in 4 days.
Because of high summer temperatures the trail is open only between 1 March and the 3rd Friday in October and tours are only allowed on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays of the first 3 weeks of each month.
Groups must consist of a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 12 persons.
There are short hikes from the camp site and 2 well marked trails of 10 km and 17 km each.
The best route from the south is the C14 which links Maltahöhe with Solitaire, while the recommended route from Windhoek, the C24, is joined about 3 km south of Rehoboth. At Rietoog, however, you turn onto district road 1206 and follow it for 28 km to Büllsport where the C14 is joined.
Turn onto the D854 signposted about 2 km south of Büllsport to reach the Naukluft entrance gate about 11 km further down the road.
The park office is 12 km beyond the gate.
Accommodation at Naukluft camp is limited to 4 sites with picnic tables and benches, fireplaces and drinking water, as well as ablution facilities.
Since there is no shop, restaurant or filling station, visitors must be totally self-sufficient. Firewood or charcoal can, however, usually be bought at the office.
Sunrise to sunset. Facilities at camp sites are limited to fireplaces, refuse bins and toilets. Visitors must ensure that they have sufficient water, fuel and all other supplies for the duration of their stay.

Kohekohe Presbyterian Church, Awhitu Peninsula, Auckland, New Zealand. Deconsecrated in 1976. Photo: Su Leslie, 2013
There are many littled churches like Kohekohe dotted around New Zealand. Our devout nineteenth century settler ancestors built churches as a matter of course wherever townships sprang up.
Population shifts and a decline in church attendance has led to the abandonment of many of these small, rural places of worship.
The old Free Kirk, or Duff Memorial Church at Kirkmichael, Perthshire, Scotland. Photo: Su Leslie 2013
Like the Kohekohe church, the now-abandoned Free Kirk in Kirkmichael was built in the 19th century. It came into existence because of a schism in the Church of Scotland whereby the evangelical wing of the church broke free from the established Church. In Kirkmichael, the Free Kirk stands south of the River Ardle, along a narrow farm track, while the established Church is on the north side, on a…

Your choice of the Fund depends on the following factors -

1) Your age- There is a general saying that equity investments as a proportion of your total investible surplus should be 100 - your age. So, if you are in the younger age group, you can invest high percentage of your assets in equity. If you are in the older age group, then high risks assets should be minimized.
2) Your appetite for risks-If you are willing to take risks, then going for Equities may be the best option and they may give excellent returns for your money.
3) The people dependent on you- If you have more number of people dependent on you, avoid Funds involving very high-risks. You may opt for the lower-risk Equity funds, Hybrid and Debt Funds.
4) Your salary- It is not advisable to invest all your money in one single fund. A diversified portfolio would help you in the long run. If the salary is low, it is better to avoid funds that have considerable risk.
5) How frequently do you require the pay-outs- Equities may pay once a year, or whenever profit booking is done. I you need regular pay-outs, then avoid investing in equities.

To choose the Best Funds it is best that you meet a Financial expert, who may pick the Best Funds for you and plan an Investment strategy for you.

Overall the biggest operating factor is your appetite for risk

Funds that involve high risk, generally give good returns. Yet a Mutual Fund failing completely occurs in rare cases. With modern strategies and the boom in the economy it is rare and the Mutual Fund can always bounce back over a period of time, enough to give you back the invested amount.

If you are open to high risk, then equities is the best option for you. If you are willing to take moderate risks then 'Balanced Fund' is the best option for you. If you want to play safe then choose Debt Funds. However, they still suffer from the risks of Interest rates and possibility that the Company may fail to deliver.

Making numbers count
Manipulators are a set of interactive tools for controlling transformations of objects. Letting users manipulate objects interactively on the screen is far more intuitive than trial and error tweaking of numbers in pursuit of suitable values. The most common transformations are translation,rotation, and scale. Manipulators are presented to users as widgets attached to objects and by interacting with these widgets the transformation parameters are changed. Many modeling packages, e.g. Maya, offer some form of interactive manipulation of objects. The manipulators shown here were implemented from scratch, using C++ and OpenGL, for Naiad Studio. Rotation was implemented using the famous ArcBall quaternion methods.
Large point cloud visualization is challenging because of the huge sizes of modern data sets. Additionally, using points as rendering primitives has significant drawbacks, that are further amplified in situations where large numbers of points are involved. Put simply, mathematical points have no volume, and, therefore do not cast shadows. Further, points have no surface area and no natural normal vector, which is commonly used for shading. Although, both volume and surface area can be approximated, it is difficult to get it right. An alternative is to use cubes as rendering primitives. Cubes have clearly defined volumes and six distinct surfaces, which means they can be rendered with traditional techniques.
Cubes are created and stored in a hierarchical data structure known as an octree. Using a divide-and-conquer strategy, cubes are created to encapsulate the input point set. So, for each cube there is one or more data points inside its volume. The cubes are in fact the bounding boxes of the leaf nodes in the octree, which is recursively sub-divided to a user-defined depth. Data points are streamed, which means that there is no limit to the number of points being used in octree creation. Further, the memory footprint of the octree is orders of magnitude smaller than that of the raw points. The cubes are output to an OBJ-file, which can be rendered in real-time or offline. In the case of offline rendering (especially ray-tracing) it is possible to merge neighboring cube faces, to drastically reduce the amount of geometry to process (approx. an order of magnitude). This greatly speeds up rendering times without compromising visual quality. Images on the left were rendered with Maxwell.
The image below was shortlisted for the UCD Image of Research Competition 2008. The input point set for this image was part of a high-grade aerial laser scan of the city of Dublin.
Famous rockband Radiohead have generously released the data captured during the making of the video for their single House of Cards. The data consists of several thousand frames of real-time laser scan data of singer Thom Yorke's face. A few frames are showed on the left. Two levels of voxelization, rendered in different colors, are overlaid and rendered with depth-of-field and motion blur. Finally, the images were post-processed to remove some saturation from the green and blue channels.
The Preetham sky model simulates sky color for a given time (year, day of year and time of day) and location (latitude, longitude). The main idea is to compute the color at zenith and use a clever distribution technique to approximate the rest of the hemisphere. This leads to a cheap, closed-form solution that is reasonably close to meteorological measurements and relatively easy to implement. However, this model is not perfect, and a rigorous criticism was made recently. In spite of this, the Preetham sky model provides nice backgrounds to CG scenes, especially when compared to many of the simpler alternatives, such as single colors or gradients. The main alternative is to go out and acquire panoramic photographs of real skies, a task that requires expensive hardware and is time-consuming. Also, photographs cannot be animated over time, providing only static snapshots of lighting conditions. Finally, this implementation could be improved by adding physically based glare and some form of tone mapping.
The general idea of this game is that areas that are connected by having the same color are removable, and the objective is to remove areas in a strategic way until no further moves are possible. Cells will fall down if there is empty space below them and will be pushed together if there are empty columns. The game ends if there are no possible moves or if all the cells are gone.
My idea was to write a solver that builds a game tree where each leaf contains the final score from making a particular sequence of moves. As one quickly realizes there is a huge number of possible solutions. In order to speed things up, pruning of the game tree can be deployed. However, it is very likely (although unproven for this particular problem, but proven for similar but simpler problems) that the problem of optimally solving this game is NP-complete. This means that pruning won't really help, because all leaves have to be visited in order to guarantee an optimal solution. However, a few obviously strategically flawed paths can be skipped. As with most pruning, evaluation functions must trade greediness and speed for optimal solutions.
A more failsafe optimization would be to implement a transposition table, because it is likely that by following different sequences of moves (in some cases simply changing the order of the moves) we arrive at the same game position, albeit with a different score. However, this involves checking for existens of a game position before solving at each node. This requires a fast hash-function for computing unique ID's for game positions, which is non-trivial to design. In these cases we can terminate the paths where the same position was achieved with a lower score.
Currently, I can solve small grids (5×5) using a brute force approach. I also have a playable version of the game, for verifying the suggested moves (and for fun). The solver and the game are built on the same core-library developed by me.
The Hough transform is a feature extraction technique used to detect objects or shapes in images. Features are represented in a suitable parameter space. The transform then casts votes into this space based on processing of the pixels in the input image. Local maxima in parameter space then correspond to the parameterised features.
The Hough transform operates on binary images, and as such often requires a thresholding of the original image. For greyscale images an alternative is to use the Radon transform. The Radon transform is roughly equivalent to a continuous formulation of the Hough transform.
The images to the right show the respective parameter spaces of a Hough and Radon transform applied to an image (not shown here). At first glance we seem to get better contrast in the Hough image. This is often desirable because it makes the task of finding robust local maxima easier. However, the price we pay for this is the constraint of having to input a binary image. Although it is more difficult to find robust local maxima in the Radon image, this method may sometimes be preferrable. One such case would be when the task of finding robust local maxima is easier than finding a suitable threshold for the original image.
First, please note that this project does not express any political views whatsoever. Posterization is an art-form with the power to transform images into aesthetic renderings geared towards a particular message, often using few colors for printing purposes. I have taken the impressive style used in the 2008 Obama-campaign and applied it to a picture of myself. The procedure is well described in this tutorial. A lot of manual work is required and it is non-trivial to achieve the professional look produced for the presidential campaign. Also, some of the procedures described in the abovementioned tutorial are needlessly complicated. For instance, I have found that using a combination of blurring and median-filtering on the different threshold levels, followed by manual tweaking, is an intuitive way of shaping the final product. Also, this allows much more efficient use of the live-tracing capabilities of Adobe Illustrator, which eliminates the most time-consuming part of the process, namely the path-tracing. Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator were used to create the different image levels and the following path tracing.

This application ray traces level sets by using the signed distance function to determine safe distances for rays to "leap" into the data grid. Snow is applied by letting particles fall downward in a 4D simplex noise field and applying a union operation where particles collide with the level set. The build-up of snow is rather slow for small particles, but smaller particles yield a finer grained build-up where individual unions are not visible after a while.

As the year begins, it's time to close out your books and prepare for the looming 2020 tax filing deadlines. Between quarterly income tax filings and semiweekly payroll withholdings, for most businesses, it's tax season all year.
Your small business tax checklist for 2020
Whether you've started your first company this year or you are a veteran entrepreneur, your business might be subject to a variety of federal taxes. Required tax filings depend on your industry, annual revenue, and the number of employees.
Income tax
Most businesses and self-employed individuals must submit estimated tax payments quarterly and file an income tax return annually. Filing dates depend on whether you operate a corporation, partnership, S corporation, or sole proprietorship.
Sole proprietorships use the same tax schedule as individuals, so returns are due on April 15, 2020. If your business is a S corporation or a partnership, the return is due on March 16, 2020. Corporations can have various tax filing deadlines, and it should be defined in your corporate resolution.
Employment tax
Payroll withholdings and unemployment tax payments are submitted semi-weekly or monthly depending on your filing status. Employers must document deposits and distribute year-end tax documents to employees.
Excise tax
Certain businesses, including manufacturers, retailers, and trucking companies, are subject to excise tax. Depending on industry-specific requirements, excise tax is paid monthly, quarterly, or annually.
The following deadlines are geared toward small businesses that follow a calendar-year reporting system. Additional information, including schedule modifications for fiscal-year tax filters, appears in IRS Publication 509.
Tax filings for wages and nonemployee compensation
By January 31, employers must distribute paper copies of appropriate tax forms to individuals who received cash payments during 2019, including wages, nonemployee compensation, dividends, royalties and profit-sharing distributions. Alternatively, electronic files can be delivered with the recipient's consent. Additional copies must be submitted to the Social Security Administration at the same time. The January 31 deadline applies to the following tax documents:
• Forms 1097, 1098 and 1099
• Forms 3921 and 3922
• Forms W-2 and W-2G
Small businesses have until February 28 to send corresponding copies to the IRS. Employers may also be required to submit Form 1096, Annual Summary and Transmittal of U.S. Information Returns, and Form 8027, Employer's Annual Information Return of Tip Income and Allocated Tips. For electronic filings, the deadline for these filings is extended until April 1.
Employment taxes and payroll withholdings
Based on tax liability as reported on Form 941, Employer's Quarterly Federal Tax Return, small businesses must deposit employment taxes monthly or semi-weekly. Items subject to this requirement include federal income tax, federal unemployment (FUTA) tax and Social Security/Medicare (FICA) withholdings.
Additionally, employers must report their payroll withholdings quarterly or annually using IRS Form 941, 943, 944 or 945. Key deadlines for Form 941 are April 30, July 31, October 30 and January 29, 2021. All other forms in the 940 series are due on the last day of the first month after the end of the calendar year:
• Form 940, Employer's Annual Federal Unemployment (FUTA) Tax Return
• Form 943, Employer's Annual Federal Tax Return for Agricultural Employees
• Form 944, Employer's Annual Federal Tax Return
• Form 945, Annual Return of Withheld Federal Income Tax
Income tax returns for partnerships and S corporations
If your business is classified as a partnership or an S corporation, you must submit your tax return on March 16 or the 15th day of the third month after the end of your organization's tax year. Partnerships must complete Form 1065, which is used to generate a Schedule K-1 earnings statement for each partner. For S corporations, Form 1120S is needed to prepare the Schedule K-1.
Partnerships and S corporations may request a six-month extension by submitting Form 7004 along with a deposit equal to the amount of estimated tax owed. In this case, the annual tax return along with interest and penalties will be due on September 15.
Corporate income tax returns
Companies have until April 15, 2020 to submit corporate tax returns for income received in 2019. Businesses may use Form 1120 or request a six-month extension by filing Form 7004 and submitting a deposit for the amount of estimated tax owed. The first quarterly estimated tax payment of the year is also due on this date.
If your business requests an extension, you have until October 15 to submit your income tax return using Form 1120. You'll be required to pay penalties, interest, and any remaining tax at that time.
2020 Tax filing deadlines for estimated income tax
Businesses must calculate their quarterly income tax liability using the worksheet Form 1120-W. Quarterly estimated income tax payments for corporations are due on the following dates:
• First quarter: April 15
• Second quarter: June 15
• Third quarter: September 15
• Fourth quarter: December 15
Federal excise tax requirements for small businesses
Federal excise taxes apply to a number of different products and industries. Filing requirements vary depending on the nature of your business.
• Form 720, Quarterly Federal Excise Tax Return, applies to retailers, manufacturers, communications companies, and travel services. It's filed quarterly, with this year's due dates falling on April 30, July 31, October 30, and January 29, 2021.
• Companies that accept wagers must file Form 11-C, Occupational Tax and Registration Return for Wagering, before accepting any bets, and Form 730 for every subsequent month.
• Companies that operate heavy highway vehicles must file Form 2290 by the last day of the vehicle's first month of service. For subsequent filings, the excise tax period begins on July 1 and ends on June 30.
Find more information about when to file taxes 2020
This guide includes an overview of the 2020 tax filing deadlines that apply to small businesses. Your company may also qualify for tax credits and deductions on essential expenses, such as business insurance, which may reduce your tax burden. If you have specific questions about when to file taxes in 2020, additional information is available online through the IRS Small Business and Self-Employed Tax Center

Chicago Breaking News is reporting that domestic terrorist, Marxist, and unofficial Obama advisor, Bill Ayers, is retiring from his position of indoctrination of America's youth.
No mention in the article about how Bill used to like to try to kill pigs and blow people up. Just this little kiss off:
Ayers' retirement had nothing to do with the negative press, Chou said, adding that the university will miss him.
"It will be more than a ripple because he's made a significant mark here," Chou said. "He's been really a very good colleague here. He has hundreds of students who really cherish that they've had the experience of being taught by him."

An Interesting story in the Calgary Herald, entitled "DataGardens grows corporate IT security in cloud" by technology startup business columnist Lloyed Lobo (published in the Dec. 5, 2014 online newspaper edition) about former TEC Edmonton client and 2008 TEC VenturePrize Fast Growth Competiton winner DataGardens.
Edmonton-based DataGardens has grown to the point where it provides IT cloud security to some of the best-known multinationals in the world, such as Coca-Cola, Dell and Hewlett Packard.
Thanks, DataGardens CEO Geoff Hayward, for the mention of TEC Edmonton and Innovate Calgary as important support services that startup companies should take advantage of.
DataGardens has since been sold to American cloud security company CenturyLink.

I started yoga teacher training last night. My back against a wall, feet on the floor, a soft voice of yoga in front of me, the rumble of Kirtan behind. The row of windows to my right let in the twinkle of holiday lights still wrapping the trees and the noise of the street, Friday night in Old Town. At first, I am flanked by emptiness, but before long the circle is full, it and the door closed. Women with intention, all of them speak of a hunger for community and friendship. I feel on the floor in more ways than one, grounded and low, bottomed out. We chant the Ganesh mantra, Remover of Obstacles, Lord of Compassion, and I remember that I am my biggest obstacle. Breathe in, breathe out. Begin again.

Gratitude Friday
1. The sky in Colorado. It does stuff like the above, all the time and for no special reason, sunrise and sunset and everything in between. This happened the other morning while we were walking Sam at City Park. Luckily Eric had his phone so we could get a picture of it. This is one of the reasons I get up early, leave for a walk while it's still dark. This.
2. Red Table, my favorite cafe that was scheduled to close for good on December 22nd is not disappearing, just moving. Once a new lease is signed, they'll announce where to, and there will be dancing in the streets, even if it's just me, a flash mob of one.
3. Yoga Teacher Training at Om Ananda Yoga, (I'm official, all signed up and ready to go, we start in January) and a new yoga mat from Eric for my birthday. I am so excited to see how this is going to shift my practice, my relationship to my body, my life.
4. Birthday wishes. Lots of love there.
5. Guest post request from Rachel. She's taking a blogging break, so "lined up a few great 'substitute teachers'," and asked me to be one of them. I am still working out what I'll write about, but am so excited for the opportunity, so touched and grateful that she asked.
Bonus Joy: Sam. We have (mostly) decided that rather than get a new dog over Winter Break, we are waiting until Spring Break. *sigh* There are lots of really good reasons, but the most relevant is that Eric and I are still feeling the trauma of losing two dogs in a row to fatal cancers and need a bit more time to work with that before being responsible for another life, before inviting another beast in who will eventually break our hearts. The only issue I have with this decision is it isn't necessarily the best one for Sam, because he needs another dog. He's developing fears he never had before (the washing machine, which means the dryer too by default, the vegetable steamer, even the toaster because it sometimes sets off the smoke alarm) and will be much happier, calmer once he has another dude.
Many True Things and One Wish
I know, I know–this post is supposed to be Three Truths and One Wish. But lately, it just doesn't want to behave, doesn't want to conform to the rules, and since my goal here is the truth, forcing it to be something it isn't doesn't make any sense. Today, what really wanted to be said is that in the past month, there have been practices that have helped me to get at the truth, to go deeper, to consider what has happened in the past year and contemplate what might happen in the next, and I really just wanted to share them with you, in case they might be of some benefit for you as well.
1. Truth: I am so happy that Kat of I Saw You Dancing decided to host Reverb12 this year. For starters, I now have another wonderful blog to read, one where I find myself constantly saying "yes!" and "me too!" as I read. I have entire conversations with her in my head, only a tiny part of which ever get shared with her in the comments. She is a kindred, and even though I am officially about half a month behind in posting responses to the Reverb prompts on my blog, I am so glad I took part this year, gained so much clarity from the process, and hope to again in the next.
2. Truth: Sarada's New Year's Eve Yoga class at Om Ananda, my favorite yoga studio was amazing. I attended this special event for the first time last year, and was so happy I did. This year's practice was the same, the best way to say goodbye to one year and welcome the next: Sarada's amazing teaching–her warmth and her wisdom, the light and warmth of the space (twinkle lights outside, candles on the window sills, the studio lights dimmed, the hum of the heater), my fellow practitioners, and the focus of the class (union, carrying the strength of the past into the new year, surrendering residual tension, moving forward with intention and love, opening our hearts and being present). I left feeling blessed, blissed, and so so lucky.
3. Truth: Reset. Revive. Restart. was so worth doing, and I plan to do it again next year. Sandi Amorim and Cigdem Kobu are amazing women and put together an incredible program. It's over now (*sob*), and there's a rumor that our private Facebook group will be shut down in another week, but I'm still in denial about it, am going to miss it so much. It was like virtual summer camp for grown up women. The good news is I can now restart A Year With Myself (another awesome program Cigdem put together), since last year I only got to about week 15 before I crapped out, (another year with myself isn't the worst thing that could happen).
4. Truth: Signing up for the Open Heart Project, and then joining at the Practitioner level was one of the best things I did for myself this year, maybe ever. Today is the final day of a seven day retreat and it was such a good thing for me, to intentionally focus on reflecting, practicing and contemplating, to not jump ahead into next year or the next thing too soon. I absolutely adore Susan Piver, and the community that has formed around her, the practice and the project, is such a support to me, such an amazing opportunity.
5. Truth: There were so many prompts and videos and posts and people and practices that helped me transition from 2012 to 2013.
- Rachel Cole's Wisdom Notes: Rachel has a quiet, gentle yet powerful way of leading you to the truth. This came at just the right time, and her emails were such a comfort and inspiration during the busy and sometimes stressful holiday season, the overwhelm that can happen this time of year. Her upcoming Ease Hunting promises to be the same sort of wonderful.
- Susannah Conway's Unravelling the Year Ahead workbook. I did this last year too, and it's one of my favorite New Year's rituals.
- Picking a word for 2013. This originates (for me anyway) with Ali Edwards, Susannah Conway, and Andrea Scher. Last year I selected Retreat, and this year it's Freedom.
- Andrea Scher did a really great post with a series of videos this year, A New Year's Ritual, a short practice that you might want to consider if you haven't had time for anything else.
- Patti Digh offered Two Questions for the New Year, another practice you might still consider if you are short on time, but big on intention.
One wish: Neil Gaiman offers some of the best New Year's wishes, so I will share his from this year as my wish for all of us, kind and gentle readers.
It's a New Year and with it comes a fresh opportunity to shape our world.
So this is my wish, a wish for me as much as it is a wish for you: in the world to come, let us be brave – let us walk into the dark without fear, and step into the unknown with smiles on our faces, even if we're faking them.
And whatever happens to us, whatever we make, whatever we learn, let us take joy in it. We can find joy in the world if it's joy we're looking for, we can take joy in the act of creation.
So that is my wish for you, and for me. Bravery and joy.
August Break: Day Six
I am a yoga practitioner. I have been for about five years, and have aspirations to be certified to teach someday, to share this practice that has been so helpful, so meaningful for me. I attend four yoga classes a week, and do some practice on my own. Three mornings a week, I attend a class at my gym. What I love about that class is many of the same people have been going for the last five years, there are lots of rotating regulars, and it's become a little community. The space where we practice, a general fitness class room, isn't all that appealing.
However, I'm am lucky enough to also practice one day a week at a real yoga studio, Om Ananda. It is a beautiful space. Before class yesterday morning, I took some pictures so I could share it with you.
