It is located in the East Valley area ; of the large midget, which is the analog of the large midget at ; -1.75 on the negative X-axis of the Z^(2.003)+C Mandeloid. ; ; Here again we have features that remind me of a rail yard. And ; there are quartic midgets -- lots of them -- so many midgets in ; fact that they come in clusters. ; ; Today's image picks out one midget in a long string of similar ; midgets. Part of an adjoining midget is visible at the right ; border of the frame. ; ; I named the image "No Quartic Contest" and rated it at a 6. I ; had no good reason for choosing the name; the rating seems ; appropriate. The calculation time of 12 minutes is true on my ; worn-out 10-year-old computer. SOTA machines will finish the ; task in a couple minutes or so. But the fastest and easiest way ; of all to see the image is to visit the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; and view it there. ; ; The sun was bright, the wind was light, and the temperature ; reached 75F 24C here at Fractal Central on Tuesday. But the ; weather went un-noticed by the fractal cats, who spent much of ; the day racing up and down the long hallway, sliding around on ; the carpets on the newly refinished floor. We have decided to ; let them have their fun until they grow tired of it. They we'll ; put rubber mats under the slippery carpets to hold them more ; firmly in place. ; ; The graphic work continued light. I expect Wednesday to be the ; same. The next FOTD fractal will appear in 24 hours. What it ; will look like nobody knows. Until then, take care, and be ; ready to see something never before seen by human eyes. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= No_Quartic_Contest { ; time=0:12:07.82--SF5 on a P200 reset=2004 type=manzpower center-mag=-1.22302423582265300/+0.003499866084603\ 55/1.487328e+011/1/5.00003794580166439/-0.00014829\ 5373074855408 params=0/0/4.003/0 float=y maxiter=4500 inside=0 periodicity=10 colors=000SddQccObcM`bK_aIYaGX`EW`CU_ATZ8RZ6QY4PY9\ OWDOUHOTLORPNQTNOXNM`NLdMJhMIlMGpMFmOMkQTiS_gTehVb\ iW`iZZj`XjaVkdTkeRlgOmiMmkKnlInoGopEorClqFjhIhgLef\ NceQadTZcWXbYV``S_cQZfOYhLXkJWnHVqFUsLYtQauWdv`hwe\ kwkqwqwwlushspcqm_oiWmfRhcNc`JZXEUUAPR6KODFLPAITFG\ WJDbEBh98n56o88oB9oEBpHCpKDpNFpQGqTHqWJqZKraLrdNrg\ OriPuaFwU5sS7pR8mQAjPBgODdNEaMGZLHVKJSJKPIMMFNJAKG\ AFDAAAAA0AA0AA0AA0AA0AA0AA0AA0AAKTNK`NKhOKpOKxOMuN\ OsNQqNSnNUlNWjNYhN_eMacMcaMe_MgXMiVMkTMmRMkQKjPJhP\ IgOGfNFdNEcMDbLB`LA_K9ZK8`MCbNFcOIeQMgRPhSSjTVlVZm\ WaoXdqYgr_kt`nvaqwbtvasu`st_ssZssYsrXrqWrpVsoUtoTu\ pSvqRwrQxsPyqRspSnoUhnVcmXYlYTkZOhYNfXNcWNaVNZUNXT\ NUSNSRNQRNOUOMWPLZQJ`RIcSGeTFhUDjVCmWAoX9qYAoZAn_B\ l`BkaCibChcDfdDeeDdfEbgEahF_iFZjGXkGWlGVmFXkFYiEZg\ E_eE`dDbbDc`CdZCeXCfWBhUBiSAjQAkOAlNEnMHoMLpMOqMSr\ MVsMZtLauLevLiwLmxLqyLuzM } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ;
