Hi fractint artists,

This happened to me last night.  The list returned 3
of my posts.  So now tonight I get through.  While I
can, I will forward any on topic posts.  If someone
else like Janet will help, we may be able to continue
through the holiday.  For some of us this is a time
we can get to our art,

Subject: (fractint) Joy to the Chef

A friend sent me these delightful stories of cooking disasters.....I hope
you and yours are having a lovely....and disaster free day

 THEY GOT MASHED, ALL RIGHT
   Pat Livingston of Dallas was married to "a big, physical fellow," she says.
   One day he volunteered to mash some potatoes that she had cooked in a
   pressure cooker. You know where this is going.

   "I overheard him in the kitchen grunting and shouting, 'I can't get this
lid
   off, uggghhhh, uggghhhh,' " she says. "I heard a huge bang that sounded
like
   the day the universe was born. I rushed to the kitchen, and there the
big guy
   stood with the pressure cooker in one hand, the lid in the other, and
   steaming potatoes exploded onto more than half of the kitchen. We're
talking
   the ceiling, walls, cupboards, stove, everywhere. I never knew potatoes
could
   explode like that."

   ONE OVEN DESIGN THAT'S ABSOLUTELY DYNAMITE
   After watching Julia Child, Janice Kelly of Grand Praire was inspired to
make
   an "authentic curry." Ms. Child recommended heating the coconut to
facilitate
   removing the meat from the husk.

   "One rather vital bit of instruction I missed was to drain the milk from
the
   coconut before heating," she says. "I put the coconut in the oven, set the
   timer and went off to a meeting. When that steam-powered bomb exploded, it
   blew the oven door off and spewed coconut milk about 10 feet in all
   directions! I returned to find the oven door dangling from one hinge. I
   cooked on that GE wall oven for another 20-plus years - all with a
   coconut-sized divot in the door."

   YEAH, WELL, AT LEAST THE ALMOND SLICES ARE GONE
   When Donna Graebner of Dallas was young, she and her sister watched their
   mother ice an angel food cake and sprinkle it with almond slices. Some fell
   into the hole in the cake's center.

   "Mom didn't want to cut into the cake in front of the guests only to find a
   mess of almond slices stacked up in the hole. So she got the hose to our
   vacuum cleaner and stuck it down the hole. As soon as we turned it on,
almost
   all of the cake was sucked up into the vacuum cleaner. What a disaster.
   She had to pull the remains of the cake out . . . and wash out the hose. I
   don't remember what she ended up serving."

   AFTER THREE ROUNDS, BIRD CONCEDES DEFEAT
   Carrollton resident Estela DeLa Fuente had never cooked a turkey this
big: 22
   pounds. She rose at 5:30 a.m. to wash and stuff it, place it in a
cooking bag
   and pop it in the oven. She was headed back to bed when she noted a "glow":
   The bag had ignited. She removed the turkey, pitched the bag, basted the
bird
   and put it back in the oven. Only now its string cradle was dangling
over the
   pan.

   "I peered into the oven to see a small flame eating its way up the string,
   much like you see a fuse burning toward a stick of dynamite in the movies!"
   she says. Out came the bird. Off came the string. An hour later, the smoke
   detector went off, waking everyone in the house. One of the wings had
dripped
   fat, which caught on fire.

   "After the third fire, I wasn't sure whether I'd ever get the turkey to the
   table," she says. "But he did manage to get cooked and eaten, with a lot of
   good-natured teasing from everyone."

   AND FOR HER NEXT TRICK, SHE WILL LICK DRY ICE
   Dallas native Lynda Doty was making caramelized sugar for her family.

   "In an unthinking moment, I lifted the wooden spoon to take a quick
taste of
   my delicious-smelling concoction (don't all good cooks taste as they
   create?)," she says. "The caramelized sugar adhered the wooden spoon to my
   tongue! There I stood, alone in my kitchen with a large wooden spoon
dangling
   from my tongue, not knowing what step to take next, and all the while
   realizing that whatever I did, it would be wrong!" She finally loosened the
   spoon with ice water and butter.

   "The holiday went on as planned, although I did lose a few taste buds that
   day!" she says.

   "INSTANT" RECIPE FOR GUARANTEEING YOU NEVER EAT A POTATO AGAIN
   After moving here from Korea, Sue Chase decided that if others could cook,
   she could, too. She began with instant potatoes - "thinking that if
   they were instant, it would be easy to make," she says.

   The potatoes looked too moist, though, so she added another package of
   potatoes - which made the mixture too dry.

   "To make a long story short, after going to the store and purchasing two
more
   boxes of instant potatoes, I had a pan of potatoes for an army mess tent.
   Since there were only four in our family, we ended up eating a variety of
   mashed potatoes (pancakes, croquettes, etc.) for the next seven days."

   NEXT TIME, WE RECOMMEND A HEARTFELT POEM
   Allen resident Angie Houghtlin's younger sister decided to bake her way
to a
   young man's heart. The tool: chocolate cake.

   "My sister, who, to this day has absolutely no interest in cooking, and who
   still eats cereal for almost every meal, really outdid herself," she says.
   "When my brother and his friends sat down to cut the cake, therein lay a
   surprise. Not one of the eggs had been mixed into the batter. There they
lay,
   in all their hard-cooked glory: whole and with yolks intact. She has never
   lived this down."

   IT'S FUDGE, I SWEAR IT IS
   Eager to impress her new husband, Michelle Padgett Perkus of Richardson
   decided to make her mother's fudge. She cooked the mixture until it was hot
   and bubbly but could not get it to the "soft ball" stage. Convinced the
batch
   was bad and lacking a garbage disposal, Ms. Perkus did what many a young
   bride might do.

   "I dumped the hot fudge failure into the commode," she says. "The whole 4
   cups of hot fudge splattered to the bottom of the commode, where it quickly
   formed a soft ball. When I tried to flush it, the brown gooey glob of fudge
   firmly attached itself to the bottom of the commode and refused to flush."

   Her husband came home. He laughed, she cried.

   "The worst part was having to spend many hours digging that fudge out of
our
   commode with a spoon!" she says.

   THIS DIVINITY SURE DOES TASTE MIGHTY ... REGULAR
   It was back in the late 1930s that Thelma Hopkins' sister made one very
   unusual batch of divinity.

   "I can remember it and smell it like it was yesterday," Ms. Hopkins
says. "We
   started to eat it and realized she had used Fletcher's Castoria (a strong
   Laxative) instead of vanilla. There were six of us kids so you know we
didn't
   throw it away. We ate it. We passed each other on the way to the bathrrom,
   but we survived and laugh at it every so often."

   JACK FROST, GET OUT OF THE COUNTRY. ASAP.
   Dallas resident Jeannine Verinder has always liked the part of that song
that
   goes, "chestnuts roasting on an open fire."

   "Several days before Christmas one year, I happened to notice chestnuts for
   sale in the produce section, so I bought some," she says. "My husband
   and I didn't have an 'open fire,' so I decided to roast them on an open
   cookie sheet in the oven. Was I ever surprised when the chestnuts started
   exploding. We spent hours cleaning those fibers off the inside of our
oven."

   DRIVEWAY STILL SOLID AS A ROCK
   As a young bride, Jan Wallace of Mesquite didn't want guests to see her
   relying on a cookbook.

   When they arrived, "I hurriedly put away my cookbook," she says. "I
   remembered that the recipe for gravy called for one 'something' of flour
and
   unfortunately I chose the word 'cup' to replace 'something' and added a cup
   of flour to the grease. I added and added and added milk and it was so
thick
   we could have used it to pave the driveway."

   At her guests' suggestion, they skipped gravy altogether.

   MM-HMM, RIGHT. MEANWHILE, CHECK ON THE KID'S LIFE INSURANCE POLICY
   Virginia Davis of Dallas insists she is not stupid. No, she was simply
young
   and inexperienced in the ways of canned ham.

   She stuck the can in the oven for just a "few minutes" to melt the gelatin
   around the edges. Then she forgot about it. Company arrived.

   "Just as our nephew passed the oven, it happened - the oven door flew open
   and the exploded ham flew out of the oven, missing the child's head by
   inches," she says. "As it hit the wall, the shredded ham was flung
across the
   kitchen and was literally hanging from the ceiling. I remain extremely
   thankful that I did not kill my nephew with an exploding ham."

   THAT'S NO HAM, THAT'S MY ...
   John Lowrey was working days, his wife Mary nights. He came home one night
   and noticed an unfamiliar smell. He went into the kitchen and saw
"something
   round" on the floor.

   "At first I thought that an intruder came into the apartment and killed my
   wife and cut her head off," he says.

   He turned on the kitchen light.

   "I saw 'stuff' hanging from the ceiling, curtains, walls and floor!" he
   recalls. "The oven door was open and there was a twisted thing on the
floor.
   After calming down, I looked closer. The twisted thing was a ham can. The
   ball on the floor was an exploded ham and the 'stuff' all over was more
   ham."

   The instructions never said to remove the ham from the can, said the
Mrs.; it
   just said "cook at 325 degrees."

   "You know, she was right," he says.

   THAT BARB ALWAYS WAS A LATE RISER
   Lynn Dickson's mother-in-law brought over her bread machine so that Ms.
   Dickson and her husband could try it out. She also brought a plastic bag of
   powdered milk, which she said would improve the flavor of the bread.

   Her husband tried it and made what seemed to be a perfect loaf. But he
threw
   it away; he didn't like the crunchy texture.

   That evening, Ms. Dickson noticed that a small plastic bag containing the
   cremated ashes of her deceased sister, Barb, was missing from a table in
the
   bedroom.

   "I had recently flown back from out of state following her funeral with her
   ashes in the bag until I could locate a suitable permanent container for
   them," she says. "When I questioned my husband as to where 'Barb' was, his
   eyes widened and with a grief-stricken look on his face, he exclaimed, 'You
   are not going to believe what I did! I put her in the bread!!' In a
state of
   shock, I asked, 'All of her?' 'No,' he cried, 'Just two tablespoons!' "

   Unsure whether to laugh or cry, they finally began to laugh, knowing that
   Barb would enjoy the humor of this incredible story.

   "We thought of many humorous sayings at that point, such as 'Well, Barb
   always wanted to be rolling in the dough!' or 'Barb was so well-bred!' or
   'Barb has truly risen!' "

Have you looked at the GNU gmp library? It's free with source and
documentation and includes at least simple transcendental functions (I
think). It is written in C and includes assembler code for many
processors. There's also a C++ wrapper ("cln") for it that is, of
course, much nicer to use because you have overloaded operators
(really nice to write "z = z * z + c; when z is a 200-digit complex
number :-).

I thought about implementing a deep zoom fractal engine with it
recently, because it includes algorithms for multiplication that are
better than O(n^2) like fractint (O(n log n) and O(n) even, I think).
Probably that would be useful only with *really* deep zooms, though...

Dear List Readers-

This is my first post to the list.  I'm a relative fractalint newbie.

Can someone please enlighten me on the following:

Our local PBS station out of LA (KCET) recently aired
 a program on Fractals, hosted by Arthur C. Clark.
I believe some of you saw it, as it was mentioned some posts past.

In it, the developer/owner of Iterated Systems was interviewed.  During his
interview there was a demonstration of a software filter which was
used on a severely data reduced (pixelated) image of a part of a
parrots eye.

By passing the data set through the filter one obtained a substantially
enhanced image at seemingly higher resolution than the original low resolution
image.

Could some of you out there in the "know" on these sorts or subjects
please comment on this.

Historically, we have never been able to obtain high rez output from
low rez input, regardless of the processing applied.  You can't create
"information" out of nowhere.

But I suspect, due to the observed self-similarity exhibited in fractal images,
using a "reverse fractal filter" (for lack of a better name), based on
fractal mathematics, would result in output which probably resembles the original,

rather than an exact recreation of it.

Does anyone know if these processing techniques have ever been applied to
astronomical observations, say image data from the Hubble Space Telescope?

If one can recreate the parrots eye from a hand full of pixels, wouldn't it be
possible to fractal process an image taken at the limits of an instruments
capabilities and effectively multiply the power of that instrument
10's or 100's of times maybe 1000's of times?

I apologize if I've posted this to the wrong newsgroup, but it seemed
like a good first approximation.  Please advise me of an alternate if one
is aware that such exists.


Dying to know (the ramifications are astounding)
Richard

Well, that too (these days I only bother jumping on Make Money Fast!
scams); but I was thinking more of such wanton running of software of such
dubious pedigree....




I dunno, Tim turns his back for five minutes and look what happens...

Michael Barnsely (the developer/owner) has written a book called "Fractals
Everywhere" that covers the ground you're interested in. Iterated Systems
has since bought algorithms for other extremely high data compression
methods (weighted finite automata, etc.).

Certainly, if you over-enlarge a portion of someone's skin in a portrait,
you just see more skin - you do not start seeing skin cells!

No doubt someone has applied them for their own use, but the data itself is
stored in a lossless (noncompressed) FITS format. Even JPEG and GIF
compression (one lossless, the other with a restricted palette) are too
damaging to the data to be used for recording purposes. In fact, FITS files
are not limited to two-dimensional images (one- and three-dimensional
images are also common), and its headers can contain massive amounts of
data - not just a description of how many images there are in the file, and
the number of dimensions and bits per pixel each image has, but notes on
what telescope took the photo, what instruments were attached, what
wavelengths were gathered, what part of the sky is in view, catalogue
numbers of any objects in the view, UTC timestamp...

One reason for the aversion to compression in FITS images is the age of the
format (it was designed to be conveniently stored on punched cards). FITS
files are no doubt tarred and gzipped for archival purposes (perhaps with a
summary of the header stored separately for indexing), but that is not
strictly an image-compression issue.

The other reason is that in astronomical photographs _every_ bit is
considered significant data - considering the amount of effort that has
gone into obtaining it, this is not surprising!

The extra "information" would still be fake. The results might look good,
but they would be useless for research purposes.
