The other thing one should point to is the more than fragile balance between the shareholders of Goupil: As soon as Theo too was there, Vincent had no change to stay longer. But that's a point, discussed in my text for Budapest, so not yet material for WP. --R.P.D. 21:52, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I dimly recall reading somewhere that the brothers sent letters in the packing cases for the artwork that moved between branches ... I will chase this up.  The point being, that presumably Theo had got his position while Vincent was still in the employ of the firm. Stumps 20:54, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Talk:AC Aceca

message: Triumph Engine AC Aceca Factory Installed in 1957
-
AC Aceca factory installed Triumph engine.
After the restoration of this AC Aceca on Car SOS the owner and Car SOS were in touch with the AC Committee. What they thought was a previous replacement engine installation was actually a one and only factory installed Triumph engine. The Stock letter ’T’ refers to Triumph in the log book.
Date: July 2nd 1957
Car: AC Aceca
Color: Gunmetal with Red AC Leather
Stock#: TAE 618 (T representing Triumph) All other vehicles listed have AE
Dealer: K. N. Rudd Ltd Sussex
Buyer: Wing Cdr G T Dale
History:
Originally built in 1957 this rare AC Aceca (1 of 328) was the only ‘one’ factory installed Triumph engine. AC at the time was looking to replace their original AC engine and built this as a trial. It was sold to Wing Commander G T Dale. After 14 years it was then purchased in 1971 by it’s second owner who has owned it to this day. It has gone through a full restoration thanks to CAR SOS and now is home to the British Motor Museum for the Car SOS Exhibition until Feb 2019.
Restoration:
In 2015 Car SOS was contacted to restore this one of a kind AC Aceca. To the owners knowledge the car was being shown in an exhibit for AC Aceca’s until all was revealed at the end. Members of the AC Committee were at the reveal and it wasn’t until after the show when the AC committee got involved that they found out that this was a one of a kind factory installed Triumph engine. In 1957 AC had been looking to replace the AC engine and wanted to try out the Triumph engine as an option.
Car SOS exhibition at the British Motor Museum:
Car SOS took their show on the road at the British Motor Museum. The exhibition includes a pre-war Austin 'Tilly' truck which underwent a sympathetic overhaul, a vibrant yellow Lancia Delta Intergrale with a touching back story and rare AC Aceca sports car along with four others - an MGA, Volvo P1800, Aston Martin DB6 and a Ford Capri 3100.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by AC.ACECA (talk • contribs) 02:24, 24 December 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: The original article text in question: The term SMOF dates back at least as far as 1955, when Wilson Tucker referred to it in Neo-Fan's Guide to Science Fiction Fandom. Even as early as that time, the term, which could refer as easily to fanzine fans as well as convention runners, could be used as a verb to refer to the process of discussing con running and fan politics. (This term does *not* appear in the original 1955 edition of the NEOFAN'S GUIDE or in the 1966 edition. The author of this caveat does not have the 1973 and 1975 editions, but it *does* appear in the 1978 edition.)--Hurtstotouchfire 11:28, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Number of Words in English

message: I find this article unclear. 
"A headword, head word, lemma, or sometimes catchword is the word under which a set of related dictionary or encyclopaedia entries appears. The headword is used to locate the entry, and dictates its alphabetical position. Depending on the size and nature of the dictionary or encyclopedia, the entry may include alternative meanings of the word, its etymology and pronunciation, compound words or phrases that contain the headword, and encyclopedic information about the concepts represented by the word.
For example, the headword bread may contain the following (simplified) definitions:
"
According to the above definition, the headword is a pointer to an article, which is called entry.
But in the sentence "[..] the headword bread may contain the following (simplified) definitions" 'headword' is used as a synonym of the 'entry' (or complete article). 
Personally, I would prefer 'headword' for the pointer (a word or word group) and 'lemma' for the complete article. 'Entry' sounds to pointer-like to my ears.Yospangsada (talk) 19:48, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

But some sources give it has 38 tons.
So what exactly is the max weight or it changes regularly as new production versions come out??
by the specs given, the maximum internal fuel is 9 tons, max external weapons load is 8 tons. So 17 tons total Plus 17 tons empty weight will make it 34 tons.
one surprising fact due to composites is, F-22 weighs almost same as Su-30 but still carries max 15 ton warload, almost two times  what Sukhoi carries.

Apparently, this describes more than one  pitch, maybe two or even three, if we assume that exponents indicate the octave and take into account that the different capitalization of “a” and “F#” (which, btw, should probably have a proper sharp sign instead of the number sign, hash, or pound sign) would usually indicate different octaves.
