# Thomas Reade (British Army officer)

Colonel Sir Thomas Reade (1782 – 1 August 1849) was a British Army officer during the Napoleonic Wars, known also as a collector.
In 1799, at the age of sixteen, he ran away from home to enlist in the Army and participated in campaigns in Holland, Egypt and America, as well as postings across Europe. Major Reade served as Deputy Quartermaster General at the 1814 Siege of Genoa. He was knighted in 1815. When Napoleon was defeated and exiled to Saint Helena, Reade was one of his principal guards.
He married Agnes Clogg on 8 September 1824.
He was appointed consul general in Tunis on 10 May 1836. On 29 April 1841, he convinced Ahmad I ibn Mustafa, the bey (ruler) of Tunis, to abolish the slave trade.
Reade was also a scholar and antiquarian and collected a range of artefacts, much of which are held in the British Museum today. Reade was responsible for seriously damaging the Libyco-Punic Mausoleum of Dougga in 1842 for the purposes of stealing the monument's Libyco-Punic inscription.

# Beecraft

Bee Aviation Associates, Inc. (Beecraft) built three prototype aircraft designed by William F. "Bill" Chana at Montgomery Field in San Diego, California. None of the aircraft went into production.

## History

The first aircraft built was the Wee Bee in 1948. The Wee Bee is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's lightest aircraft, weighing 210 pounds (95 kg) when empty. It had a two-cylinder engine and tricycle landing gear. The pilot flew in a prone position, lying atop the fuselage. The Honey Bee was the second plane, completed in 1952. It had a single seat in an enclosed cabin. The Queen Bee was the last and the largest of the three. It was completed in 1960 and seated four. The Queen Bee and the Honey Bee had V-tails.

## Defunct

The Queen Bee and the Wee Bee were destroyed in a fire that destroyed the San Diego Aerospace Museum on February 22, 1978. The Honey Bee escaped the fire as it operated out of Montgomery Field at the time, owned by Walt Mooney. In 2004, the Experimental Aircraft Association donated the Honey Bee to the San Diego Air & Space Museum, which is currently (As of 2007) awaiting restoration at their Gillespie Field annex. According to Aerofiles, two Honey Bees were built based on advertised plans. Because of its historic significance, a second Wee Bee was constructed and is now on display at the new San Diego Air & Space Museum.

# RotorSport UK Calidus

The RotorSport Calidus is a German tandem two-seater autogyro modified in the UK to meet British Civil Airworthiness Requirements CAP643 Section T. The Calidus is an enclosed-cockpit development of the open-cockpit RotorSport UK MT-03. New-build AutoGyro Calidus aircraft are imported from the manufacturers, AutoGyro GmbH in Hildeshem, Germany and completed to British regulations by RotorSport UK Ltd (now AGC).

## Design and development

The Calidus is powered by a 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912 ULS, although optionally a 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 UL Turbo can be fitted. Fuel capacity is either 39 litres in a single tank or 74 litres in two tanks. The Calidus has an aerodynamic fuselage pod, giving 20 knots higher maximum speed than the MT-03. While the open-cockpit MT-03 (which continues in production) is promoted as a "motorbike in the skies", the Calidus is aimed at a different market. The Calidus' fully enclosed cockpit protects the occupants from exposure to inclement weather, while the aircraft's higher cruise speed makes it more suitable for long-distance touring.
The panel can be equipped with conventional instruments and/or a "glass panel" according to certification requirements and the buyer's needs. For the UK RotorSport version, either a fixed-pitch propeller or a ground-adjustable propeller may be fitted; but in Germany the unmodified AutoGyro Calidus has either a ground-adjustable propeller or an inflight-adjustable controllable-pitch propeller.
The Calidus has a take off distance of 10 to 70 metres and lands in 15 metres, or can land vertically in some circumstances. Flying speeds range from 20 mph (32 km/h) to 120 mph (193 km/h);. An optional heater makes cold-weather flying feasible; but although navigation lights may be fitted, night flying is not permitted. The payload is 230 kg for versions with the Rotax 912, so even with a full fuel load of 54 kg, two crew of up to 88 kg each can be accommodated.

## UK manufacturer AGC

The UK manufacturer, formerly RotorSport UK Ltd (RSUK), is now known as AutoGyro Certification Ltd (AGC). AGC holds the CAA AANs for the gyroplanes in the UK, and are responsible for the Continued Airworthiness of all RSUK gyroplanes. The company is based in Wentnor, Bishops Castle Shropshire.

# Raby Bay

Raby Bay is a bay within Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia, created by the Cleveland Point headland. It forms the coastline of the suburbs of Cleveland and Ormiston in the City of Redland.

## History

The bay was named by the surveyor James Warner on 1 July 1841, after the Duke of Cleveland who was also known as Baron Raby.
In 1864 Queensland's first lighthouse was constructed on Cleveland Point. Now heritage-listed, the Cleveland Point Light remained in use until 1974.
In October 1885, there was a land sale to the south of Raby Bay known as the Raby Bay Estate. 16 subdivided allotments were auctioned by James R. Dickson & Company.
In June 1979 the Queensland Government approved a canal estate development in Raby Bay which would expand the suburb of Cleveland into the bay using land reclamation to create waterfront building sites for prestige residential and commercial purposes with canal access to Raby Bay for recreational boats moored either at the individual properties or in marinas. Construction commenced in 1983 and the first stage was officially opened on 23 November 1984 with 158 blocks to be sold at prices between $53,000 to $96,000 each. The canal estate was marketed under the name Raby Bay and this name is commonly used as a neighbourhood name to distinguish this land from that of the rest of Cleveland (of which it is officially part). As with other canal estates in Queensland, the Redland City Council finds itself under pressure to provide for maintenance of the canals in these canal estates as the original development company no longer exists. In 2014, it was estimated up to 23 kilometres of canal wall were in need of repair. The owners of the properties in the canal estate claim they should not have to pay a levy as the canals are not part of their land and should be maintained by the council in the same way as roads. However, other residents in Redland City do not believe that their rates should be increased to pay for expenses associated with residents who chose to purchase land in a canal estate.

## Environment

Raby Bay is known for its seagrass meadows, which support the local dugong population. The canal estate development destroyed seagrass meadows, mangroves and roosting sites for migratory wading birds. However, there are signs the seagrass is recovering in Raby Bay {citation needed | date=January 2023} with sightings of the dugongs within the canals (not validated). However, larger populations of dugongs can be found in the Ormiston parts of the bay which have not been so affected by development.
# Relative analgesia machine

A relative analgesia machine is used by dentists to induce inhalation sedation in their patients. It delivers a mixture of nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") and oxygen. A relative analgesia machine is simpler than an anaesthetic machine, as it does not feature the additional medical ventilator and anaesthetic vaporiser, which are only needed for administration of general anesthetics. Instead the relative analgesia machine is designed for the light form of anaesthesia with nitrous oxide, where the patient is less sensitive to pain but remains fully conscious.
# Thomas Hanmer (died 1737)

Thomas Hanmer (c. 1702–1737), of Fenns, Shropshire, was an English Tory politician who sat in the House of Commons from 1734 to 1737.
Hanmer was the eldest son of William Hanmer of Fenns, Shropshire and his wife Esther Jennens, daughter of Humphrey Jennens of Gopsall, Leicestershire. He was admitted at St Catharine's College, Cambridge on 25 April 1720 and was awarded BA in 1724. In 1724 he succeeded to the estates of his father. He was awarded MA at Cambridge in 1729 and was incorporated at Oxford University in 1731. He married (with £6,000), Lady Catherine Perceval, daughter of John Perceval, 1st Earl of Egmont on 9 April 1733.
At the 1734 British general election, Hanmer was returned as Member of parliament for Castle Rising on the Howard interest. He was presumably a Tory
Hanmer was the prospective heir of Sir Thomas Hanmer, 4th Baronet, but died without issue of tuberculosis on 1 April 1737.

# Relative apparent synapomorphy analysis

Relative apparent synapomorphy analysis, or RASA, is a method that aims to determine whether a given character is shared between taxa due to shared ancestry or due to convergence. A synapomorphy is a shared trait found among two or more taxa and their most recent common ancestor, whose ancestor in turn does not possess the trait. RASA assigns a score to the character based on its potential to be informative.

## Limitations

The method performs poorly when used to select an outgroup taxon, to quantify the amount of phylogenetic signal present, or to identify taxa that may be prone to long branch attraction.

# Advance New Zealand (1995)

The Advance New Zealand Party was a New Zealand political party. It advocated for multiculturalism and the interests of ethnic minorities, and a substantial segment of its membership came from New Zealand's Pasifika communities.

## History

Advance NZ was registered on 10 August 1995. In the 1996 New Zealand general election, it submitted a party list of ten candidates, headed by England So'onalole. It also stood candidates in six electorates. It received 949 party votes (0.05% of the total), and did not win any seats.
Advance New Zealand merged into United New Zealand in 1997. Party leader England So'onalole made the decision to join United after much consultation with the party executive and membership, agreeing that United was the only party in parliament compatible with the values of Advance New Zealand. England stated "We assessed that we couldn't trust the economy to a Labour-Alliance grouping, National hasn't the community concern we seek, and New Zealand First has shown itself to be less than trustworthy with their attitude to immigrant populations."
