Fractals have infinite detail, and can have a similar structure at different levels of magnification. The term ' faktal ' which is derived from Latin, it was discovered by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975.

The geometry of fractal that looks at the stupas of Borobudur Temple. As we know, the temple is the giant stupa in which consists of domes and other smaller ones.

Verizon is also charging $799 for a contract-free tablet.If you sign up for a 2 year data plan you will be able to pick it up for $599.

Meanwhile, Verizon has confirmed that customers who are willing to buy the tablet at full prize will no longer be required to register for a one-month data plan. It was earlier reported that paying for at least one month's data plan is required to unlock the tablet's WiFi functionality. Of course, if you are not interested in using 3G, there is really no point in buying the tablet at the moment by paying the contract-free price of $799, because Motorola has plans to offer a WiFi only version sometime soon. And that model is priced at $599.

In related news, Verizon will reportedly offer free upgrade to 4G in about 3 months. Customers will have to send in their tablets to get the upgrade, though.
