Chromatic name Achromatic name others 4 2 Hue Attribute of a visual sensation according to which an area appears to be similar to one of the perceived colors Often refers red, green, blue, and yellow 5 Brightness Attribute of a visual sensation according to which an area appears to emit more or less light. Absolute level of the perception 6 3 Lightness The brightness of an area judged as a ratio to the brightness of a similarly illuminated area that appears to be white Relative amount of light reflected, or relative brightness normalized for changes in the illumination and view conditions 7 Colorfulness Attribute of a visual sensation according to which the perceived color of an area appears to be more or less chromatic 8 4 Chroma Colorfulness of an area judged as a ratio of the brightness of a similarly illuminated area that appears white Relationship between colorfulness and chroma is similar to relationship between brightness and lightness 9 Saturation Colorfulness of an area judged as a ratio to its brightness Chroma – ratio to white Saturation – ratio to its brightness 10 5 Definition of Color Appearance Model so much description of color such as: wavelength, cone response, tristimulus values, chromaticity coordinates, color spaces, … it is difficult to distinguish them correctly We need a model which makes them straightforward 11 Definition of Color Appearance Model CIE Technical Committee 1-34 (TC1-34) (Comission Internationale de l'Eclairage) They agreed on the following definition: A color appearance model is any model that includes predictors of at least the relative color-appearance attributes of lightness, chroma, and hue. -
Traveling with a Revolutionary
NOT FOR PUBLICATION WITHOUT WRITER'S CONSENT INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS TRAVELLING WITH A REVOLUTIONARY Part Catholic churches mushroom, party schools become hotels, government officials buy land. Surprises are many on the roads of South Vietnam, especially when you travel with an old revolutionary. Peter Bird Martin ICWA/Crane-Rogers Foundation 4 West Wheelock Street Hanover, New Hampshire 03755 Dear Peter, It rained so much in Hue, Mr Vinh's Cigarette began to droop from his lips. Dusk fell on the Ancient Imperial Capital of Vietnam and we took shelter from the monsoon under the balcony o an old colonial French villa. Vinh's white shock of hair and the burning ember of his cigarette pierced the darkness. "In prison, we shared every butt," he says, talking over tl]e muffled sheeting sound the monsoon. "These days, nobody shares anything. Vlnh is 70-year old. His head barely reaches my shoulder but he towers over me. He holds his head up high, chin erect, hands clasped behind his back. His finely shaped bony face is usually distant, lost in thought, seemingly disdainful. But the man can laugh, oh so well. Often, as we travelled together during the past ten days, his son-in-law cracked an anti- communist joke and the old man" s laugh cascaded from .his seat, at the back o our rented minl-bus. It was like the joyful flight of white egrets fluttering over a rice field, an explosion o water and light. "We were no communists, says Vinh as we chat under Hue's heavy rain. -

Graphic Standard Guidelinesview
Maricopa County Graphic Standard Guidelines basic standards The updated Maricopa County seal is the basic building block of our new visual image. It is a symbol of many things our County represents. The goal is to establish an image that is credible, “ownable” and that with proper use will promote the County as a well-integrated organization. This graphic standards manual was prepared to ensure that we speak to all with a common “voice,” projecting a distinctive and relevant image of Maricopa County, while allowing the necessary flexibility for individual departmental messages. These guidelines provide an objective set of boundaries to ensure consistent quality in the application of the seal and safeguard against potential problems that could dilute efforts to build the Maricopa County identity. addendum: typefaces Garamond (replaces Minion Regular) abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 0123456789 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ Garamond Italic (replaces Minion Italic) abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 0123456789 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ Garamond Bold (replaces Minion Semibold and Bold) abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 0123456789 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ Note: Do not artificially italicize Garamond Bold.

List of Clinics and Hospitals / Danh Sách Phòng Khám Và Bệnh Viện
LIST OF CLINICS AND HOSPITALS / DANH SÁCH PHÒNG KHÁM VÀ BỆNH VIỆN The following is a list of both international and Vietnamese clinics and hospitals in Ho Chi Minh City and in the provinces. The list is by no means exclusive. Many of the international medical facilities have foreign English-speaking doctors on staff. The U.S. Consulate General bears no responsibility for the quality of care or service at any of these facilities. Please be aware that medical care in Vietnam, even in Ho Chi Minh City, is considerably below U.S. standards. Sometimes, even routine injuries or conditions may require medical evacuation to a regional medical center with higher standards. The telephone country code for Vietnam is 84. Dưới đây là danh sách một số phòng khám, bệnh viện Việt Nam và quốc tế tại Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh và các tỉnh thành. Danh sách này không liệt kê đầy đủ tất cả các cơ sở. Nhiều cơ sở y khoa quốc tế có bác sĩ người nước ngoài nói tiếng Anh. Tổng Lãnh sự Hoa Kỳ không chịu trách nhiệm về chất lượng chăm sóc y tế hay chất lượng dịch vụ tại bất kỳ cơ sở nào trong danh sách này. Xin lưu ý điều kiện chăm sóc y tế ở Việt Nam, ngay cả tại Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh, thấp hơn các tiêu chuẩn của Hoa Kỳ khá nhiều. Đôi khi, ngay cả những chấn thương hay tình trạng sức khỏe thường gặp vẫn phải được chuyển đến một trung tâm y tế trong khu vực với các tiêu chuẩn cao hơn. -

Appendix G: the Pantone “Our Color Wheel” Compared to the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) 1
Appendix G - 1 Appendix G: The Pantone “Our color Wheel” compared to the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) 1 There is considerable interest in the conversion of Pantone identified color numbers to other numbers within the CIE and ISO Standards. Unfortunately, most of these Standards are not based on any theoretical foundation and have evolved since the late 1920's based on empirical relationships agreed to by committees. As a general rule, these Standards have all assumed that Grassman’s Law of linearity in the visual realm. Unfortunately, this fundamental assumption is not appropriate and has never been confirmed. The visual system of all biological neural systems rely upon logarithmic summing and differencing. A particular goal has been to define precisely the border between colors occurring in the local language and vernacular. An example is the border between yellow and orange. Because of the logarithmic summations used in the neural circuits of the eye and the positions of perceived yellow and orange relative to the photoreceptors of the eye, defining the transition wavelength between these two colors is particularly acute.The perceived response is particularly sensitive to stimulus intensity in the spectral region from 560 to about 580 nanometers. This Appendix relies upon the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) developed within this work. It has previously been described as The New Chromaticity Diagram, or the New Chromaticity Diagram of Research. It is in fact a foundation document that is theoretically supportable and in turn supports a wide variety of less well founded Hering, Munsell, and various RGB and CMYK representations of the human visual spectrum. -
