  Color   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
:''For alternative meanings, see color (disambiguation).'' Color is an important part of the [[visual arts.]] Color (American English) or colour (Commonwealth English) is a sensation which (in humans) derives from the ability of the fine structure of the eye to distinguish three differently filtered analyses of a view.
The perception of color is influenced by long-term history (nurture) of the observer and also by short-term effects such as the colors nearby.
In practice, the human color receptors will be saturated or even be damaged at extremely-high light intensities, but such behavior is not part of the CIE color space and neither is the changing color perception at low light levels (see: Kruithof curve).

 Archimedes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other senses of this word, see Archimedes (disambiguation).
In a civilization with an awkward numeral system and a language in which "a myriad" (literally "ten thousand") meant "infinity", he invented a positional numeral system and used it to write numbers up to 10
He devised a heuristic method based on statistics to do private calculation that we would classify today as integral calculus, but then presented rigorous geometric proofs for his results.
