Vervet monkeys(Chlorocebus aethiops) are found from Senegal to Ethiopia and south to South Africa. [...] Chlorocebus aethiops is usually around 400 to 600 mm in length(head and body), with tales about 300 to 500 mm. [...] Males are larger than females. [...] The faces of vervet monkeys are usually sooty black. A defining characteristic of this species is the greenish color of the upper parts of the face, which is caused by the banding together of individual hairs with black and yellow strands. In males, the scrotum and surrounding areas are bright blue or a greenish color. 2, record 2, English, - vervet%20monkey

For instance, on a printer, or printing press, strips of various CMYK [cyan, magenta, yellow, black] values are read with a measuring instrument. This information is saved into a file that can be used to define the color space of that printer or press. The same applies to monitors. Usually an emissive colorimeter is attached to the face of the monitor for calibration, and then to measure its color space, or color capability. This process of measuring a color space is called characterization... 5, record 3, English, - press%20characterization

Flexography has the potential to approach and rival the print quality of rivals lithography and gravure, if flexo converters are willing to pay the price. That price is awareness and control of printing variables. This type of control can be obtained with a press fingerprint -- or as it is more commonly called today, press characterization. Characterization, when done correctly, has the potential to control variability in the current process. 3, record 3, English, - press%20characterization

Dermatite séborrhéique («eczéma» séborrhéique). Cette dermatose très fréquente n'a pas d'étiopathogénie univoque : on incrimine la colonisation par une levure saprophyte (Malassezia furfur) des zones séborrhéiques. Cependant, la gravité de la dermatite séborrhéique (DS) n'est pas toujours corrélée avec la densité cutanée de cette levure. Un état levurique pelliculaire du scalp (pityriasis capitis) est fréquemment associé. 2, record 4, French, - dermatite%20s%C3%A9borrh%C3%A9ique
