RGB          Red, Green, Blue.   The three colours of light which can be       mixed to produce any other colour.   Coloured images are often       stored as a sequence of RGB triplets or as separate red, green       and blue overlays though this is not the only possible       representation (see {CMYK} and {HSV}).   These colours       correspond to the three "guns" in a colour {cathode ray tube}       and to the colour receptors in the human eye.          Often used as a synonym for colour, as in "RGB monitor" as       opposed to {monochrome} (black and white).

Rizpah       coal; hot stone, the daughter of Aiah, and one of Saul's       concubines. She was the mother of Armoni and Mephibosheth (2       Sam. 3:7; 21:8, 10, 11).                It happened that a grievous famine, which lasted for three       years, fell upon the land during the earlier half of David's       reign at Jerusalem. This calamity was sent "for Saul and for his       bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites." David inquired of       the Gibeonites what satisfaction they demanded, and was answered       that nothing would compensate for the wrong Saul had done to       them but the death of seven of Saul's sons. David accordingly       delivered up to them the two sons of Rizpah and five of the sons       of Merab (q.v.), Saul's eldest daughter, whom she bore to       Adriel. These the Gibeonites put to death, and hung up their       bodies before the Lord at the sanctuary at Gibeah. Rizpah       thereupon took her place on the rock of Gibeah (q.v.), and for       five months watched the suspended bodies of her children, to       prevent them from being devoured by the beasts and birds of       prey, till they were at length taken down and buried by David.                Her marriage to Abner was the occasion of a quarrel between       him and Ishbosheth, which led to Abner's going over to the side       of David (2 Sam. 3:17-21).
