rainbow shower

n : deciduous ornamental hybrid of southeastern Asia and Hawaii

having racemes of flowers ranging in color from cream to

orange and red [syn: {Cassia javonica}]

rainbow series

Any of several series of technical manuals

distinguished by cover colour. The original rainbow series

was the NCSC security manuals (see {Orange Book}, {crayola

books}); the term has also been commonly applied to the

PostScript reference set (see {Red Book}, {Green Book}, {Blue

Book}, {White Book}). Which books are meant by ""the" rainbow

series" unqualified is thus dependent on one's local technical

culture.
