AC Brooklands Ace. The AC Brooklands Ace is a roadster built by the British automotive company AC Cars from 1993 to 2000. Launched in 1993 following two previous concept cars of 1986 and 1991, the Brooklands Ace underwent small scale production until 1997 when it received a facelift and reengineering under AC's new owners and was relaunched. The Brooklands Ace did not prove popular, and production ceased in 2000 after a total production run of approximately 58 cars.

Development
The Brooklands Ace traces its history back to the 1986 concept car called the Ace of Spades that featured a high proportion of Ford parts including the 2.9 V6 engine and four-wheel drive system.

The car underwent significant development before reappearing in 1991 with a new design by IAD, a stainless steel chassis and a Ford 3.0 V6 engine.  The second prototype was a standard two-seater, dropping the 2+2 design of the Ace of Spades.

Brooklands Ace (1993–1996)
In 1993 the production model was launched, with a new specification and went into small scale production for two years before AC Cars folded in 1996. The production model is powered by a 4.9 L V8 engine from Ford and is shared with the AC Cobra, producing . The final version included an electric hood mechanism but the pop-up headlights from the earlier prototype had been abandoned, but the aluminium body was kept. Production ended with 46 of the original versions made between 1993 and 1996, by which time AC Cars had gone into receivership.

AC Ace (1997–2000)

Under new ownership in 1996, the Brooklands Ace underwent a significant redesign and re-engineering, with a relaunch at the 1997 London Motor Show as the Ace V8, dropping the Brooklands name. Sales started in 1998, but despite the changes, production reached only 12 units before ending in 2000.

The external changes included a significant re-design to the bumpers, grille, lights (now rectangular instead of round), and a new bonnet. As well as production of some elements outsourced to South Africa, final assembly was undertaken in Coventry. A change of some manufacturing techniques to reduce cost and weight was also included in the refreshed design.

The second generation Ace weighs , sits on a wheelbase of  and an overall length of . The engine range was increased with two 5.0 L V8 options, in  and  V8 supercharged variations; a 4.6 litre  V8 32-valve fuel injected quad cam engine, and a Lotus 3.5 V8 producing . The 1999 London Motor Show car was originally fitted with the Lotus engine, but as it was never operational a 4.6-litre Cobra engine was later installed. A four-seater version called the AC Aceca, reviving an old AC model name, was also launched with the 4.6 L V8 engine. The 5.0 V8 achieved a top speed of  and could accelerate from 0 to 60 in 6.9 seconds. The supercharged 5.0 could reach  and accelerate to 60 mph in 5.5 seconds.

Engine room artificer. Engine room artificer (ERA) is a specialised position in the crews of naval vessels – especially those of the British Royal Navy (RN) and other Commonwealth navies. An ERA is usually a fitter and turner, boilermaker, coppersmith or enginesmith. On larger vessels, there are several ERAs, divided into three or more classes. Each of these positions is normally associated with a specific non-commissioned rank and level of experience – for example, an ERA (First Class) is normally a chief petty officer (CPO).
The designation ERA was introduced in the early days of steam-powered warships, and in most navies is now obsolete.

Usually working under an engineer officer, an ERA was able to read and write, competent in the workings of engines and boilers, and trained in the maintenance and operation and uses of all parts of marine engines. ERAs were the senior maintainers and operators of all warship mechanical plant.
From about 1916, ERAs could also be placed in charge of small ships as an engineering officer and were also EOs of the watch on destroyers and below for which they received rapid advancement to CPO and extra charge pay of 1/- (one shilling) per day on attaining their "ticket"

By the 1950s, the RN used the term ERA for apprentice-trained boilermakers, coppersmiths, fitters and turners; however, boilermaker and coppersmith skills were becoming redundant and the remaining trades, fitters, turners and metalworkers, together with shipwrights and mechanicians, were expanded by cross-training to undertake most operational maintenance and the running of all mechanical equipment, including steam, diesel and gas turbine main machinery. During the same period, ERAs spent their first 16 months (four terms) at HMS Fisgard in Torpoint, Cornwall, and the next eight terms at HMS Caledonia in Rosyth, Fife before completing their fifth year at sea or in dockyards with the fleet. During this long training time their duties with the RN often moved beyond the world of engineering and into the world of combat and leadership.

In the 1960s, as an increasing number of nuclear-powered submarines came into service with the RN, nuclear technicians were included in the ranks of ERAs. Later in that decade, to better represent the range of technical abilities of ERAs, the name of the appointment was changed to Marine Engineering Artificer (MEA).  For example, a nuclear technician became an MEA (P), for "propulsion". An MEA was a qualified technician with an in-depth knowledge of a wider range of equipment, including the main engines, engine room, auxiliary propulsion equipment, and calibration of electronic and mechanical gauges and other measuring equipment.

The Irish Naval Service continues to use the term Engine Room Artificer for marine technicians, who wear a distinctive insignia.

Phase distinction. Phase Distinction is a property of programming languages that observe a strict division between types and terms. A concise rule for determining whether phase distinction is preserved in a language or not has been proposed by Luca Cardelli - If A is a compile-time term and B is a subterm of A, then B must also be a compile-time term. 

Most statically typed languages conform to the principle of phase distinction. However, some languages with especially flexible and expressive type systems (notably dependently typed programming languages) allow types to be manipulated in the same ways as regular terms. They may be passed to functions or returned as results.

A language with phase distinction may have separate namespaces for types and run-time variables. In an optimizing compiler, phase distinction marks the boundary between expressions which are safe to erase.

Theory
Phase distinction is used in conjunction with static checking. By using a calculus based system, phase distinction removes the need to enforce linear logic between different types and terms of programming.

Introduction
Phase Distinction distinguishes between processing to be done at compile-time versus processing done at runtime.

Consider a simple language, with terms:

    t ::= true | false | x | λx : T . t | t t | if t then t else t

and types:

    T ::= Bool | T -> T 

Note how types and terms are distinct. At compile time, types are used to verify the validity of the terms. However, types do not play any role at runtime.

Jersey Electricity Company. Jersey Electricity plc or Jersey Electricity (informally JE) is a public limited company, and the sole provider for electricity in Jersey. JE has two sites around the Island: Queens Road, St Helier, the site of two Rolls-Royce Olympus gas turbines and La Collette Power Station where there are five Sulzer Diesel turbines, one Rolls-Royce Olympus turbine, and three Parsons steam turbines.

History
Jersey Electricity was founded in April 1924, with a small generating station at the end of Albert Pier. Within a decade it had moved to a new, bigger power station at Queens Road, the site of today's Powerhouse retail park and administration offices.

By the 1960s, increased demand for electricity meant a move to an even bigger station. The company was listed on the London Stock Exchange to raise capital for the building of La Collette Power Station that served the Island for over 50 years. Today, La Collette is the controlling hub of a transmission network that includes three multi-million-pound undersea supply cables that import 95% as low-carbon power from France. Its generating plant is maintained for emergency back-up only as Jersey now benefits from a decarbonised electricity supply. The security of this supply has been called into question, however, after recent threats by the French government relating to retaliation over fishing rights.

In 2022, Jersey Electricity announced intended partnerships with local landowners to install several strategically placed ground-mounted solar arrays to further diversify supplies and increase energy sovereignty. The first array in Rue du Moulin à Vent, St. Clement, will generate enough power for nearly 650 fully electric homes when complete.

Group
The JE group includes many varied businesses including JE Building Services (JEBS), Jendev, Channel Islands Electricity Grid a joint-venture, Jersey Energy, Foreshore, Jersey Deep Freeze Ltd, Jersey Electricity Retail.

Retail
The group also own a retail store, called The Powerhouse. The store sells home appliances and technology products.

In 2014, a portion of the store was let to Sports Direct and then to Majestic Wine in 2024.
