# Western Australia Day

Western Australia Day or simply WA Day (formerly known as Foundation Day) is a public holiday in Western Australia (WA), celebrated on the first Monday in June each year, to commemorate the founding of the Swan River Colony in 1829. Because of the date of the Western Australia Day public holiday, Western Australia does not have the King's Official Birthday public holiday in June, as do most of the other Australian states; it is held in September or October instead.

## Background

HMS Challenger, under Captain Charles Fremantle, anchored off Garden Island on 25 April 1829. On 2 May, Fremantle officially claimed for Britain the part of the continent then called New Holland that was not already "included within the territory of New South Wales" which at the time extended to 129th meridian east of Greenwich.$^{:11–12}$ The merchant vessel Parmelia – with the new colony's administrator Lieutenant Governor James Stirling, other officials, and civilian settlers on board – arrived on the night of 31 May and sighted the coast on 1 June. It arrived in Cockburn Sound on 2 June,$^{:11}$ and finally anchored there on 6 June. The warship HMS Sulphur arrived on 8 June, carrying a British Army garrison. The Swan River Colony was officially proclaimed by Stirling on 11 June.
Ships carrying more civilian settlers began arriving in August, and on King George IV's birthday, 12 August, the wife of the captain of Sulphur, Helena Dance, standing in for James Stirling's wife Ellen Stirling, cut down a tree to mark the founding of Perth.
In 1832, Stirling decided that an annual celebration was needed to unite the colony's inhabitants, including settlers and Aboriginal Australians and "masters and servants". He decided that the commemoration would be held on 1 June each year (or if a Sunday, on the following Monday), the date originally planned by Stirling for Parmelia's arrival in recognition of the first and greatest British naval victory over the French in 1794, the "Glorious First of June".
The holiday was celebrated as Foundation Day up until 2011; in 2012, it was renamed Western Australia Day as part of a series of law changes recognising Aboriginal Australians as the original inhabitants of Western Australia.
In November 2024, premier Roger Cook stated he was open to the idea of moving Western Australia Day to a date closer to summer, citing the more favourable climate. His comments came after the 2024 WA Day Festival was cancelled due to poor weather, with the event postponed to 24 November 2024.
# Baczewski

Baczewski is a name of a Polish szlachta family, founders of the J. A. Baczewski vodka company.

# Comeau C/C++

Comeau C/C++ is a compiler for C and C++ produced by Comeau Computing. Comeau C/C++ was once described as the most standards-conformant C++ compiler. In 2006-2008 it was described as the only mainstream C++ compiler to fully support the export keyword for exported templates.

## Design

The compiler supports several dialects of both the C and C++ languages. It comes with its own version of the Standard C++ library, libcomo, that is based upon the Standard C++ library from Silicon Graphics, but can also be used with the Dinkumware Standard C library.
The compiler is based upon the Edison Design Group C++ frontend, also utilized in the Intel C++ Compiler. Rather than produce an executable directly, Comeau C/C++ outputs C code and requires a separate C compiler in order to produce the final program. The Comeau C/C++ can employ several back ends.

## Standards compliance

Comeau Computing is a founding member of the C++ committee. Comeau Computing's CEO, Greg Comeau, provided one of the early ports of cfront to the PC.

## Distribution

A limited-function version of the compiler, which allows one to compile source code and view any resulting error messages, but not to produce executable programs, is available from the company's web site.
The compiler is available for both Unix and Microsoft Windows platforms. Comeau also offers custom ports to other platforms, albeit that this is substantially more expensive than buying existent versions of the compiler.

## Status

The compiler was updated October 6, 2008 featuring version 4.3.10.1 Beta 2.
As of September 2017, version 4.3.10.1 remains in Beta. The company website appears to have been sold to an unrelated blogger.

# Mantoku-ji

Mantoku-ji (萬徳寺) is a Buddhist temple belonging to the Kōyasan Shingon sect located in the city of Obama, Fukui, Japan. Its main image is a statue of Amida Nyōrai.

## History

The temple was originally named Gokuraku-ji (極楽寺) and appears in historical records only from 1265, although its foundation appears to have been much older. It converted from the Tendai sect to the Shingon sect during the Ōan period (1368-1374) and was renamed Shōshō-in (極楽寺). During the Sengoku period, it was sponsored by the Takeda clan and in 1544 Takeda Nobutomo granted it a charter as a refuge for women who were abused by their husbands. The temple was destroyed during the battles of the Genki period (1570-1573). After its restoration in 1602, it was renamed Mantoku-ji. In 1677, Sakai Tadanao, daimyo of Obama Domain under the Tokugawa shogunate ordered that the temple be relocated from its original site on the banks of the Otonashi River to its present location in the mountains.

# Monster Care Squad

Monster Care Squad is a fantasy tabletop role-playing game by Sandy Pug Games about veterinarians for gods and monsters. It was inspired by Studio Ghibli films. Players inhabit the role of a 'Monster care Specialist', and are tasked with healing creatures of the world.

## Description

Gameplay involves co-operation between players. It uses variations on the Powered by the Apocalypse game engine by Meguey Baker and Vincent Baker.
Reviewers have drawn analogies between the game's systems and that of Apocalypse World, Ryuutama, and Monster of the Week. Players roll two six-sided dice that affect the outcome of particular gameplay moments in combination with 'natural talents' of their character.
Alternative rules are available for solo play. Additionally, a 'mentor system' allows for GM participation alongside players.
The game's art style has been compared to Pokemon, Nausiccaa of the Valley of the Wind, and Monster Hunter.

## Reception

Monster Care Squad was funded by a Kickstarter campaign in July–August 2020 that raised $72,995 from 2027 backers.
Linda Codega for Gizmodo called it a "masterpiece of game design...full of incredibly vivid, wonderfully rendered creatures and characters, drawn by Leafie."

# Speckled longfin eel

The speckled longfin eel, Australian long-finned eel or marbled eel (Anguilla reinhardtii) is one of 15 species of eel in the family Anguillidae. It has a long snake-like cylindrical body with its dorsal, tail and anal fins joined to form one long fin. The dorsal fin also often extends farther than the anal fin. It usually has a brownish green or olive green back and sides with small darker spots or blotches all over its body. Its underside is paler. It has a small gill opening on each side of its wide head, with thick lips. It is Australia's largest freshwater eel, and the female usually grows much larger than the male. It is also known as the spotted eel.

## Description

Long-finned eels can grow to 1.6 metres and 22 kg (although generally to 1 metre) for females while males are much smaller at 650 mm and 600 g. Landlocked eels have been reported to grow to 3 metres (10 feet).

## Distribution

The long-finned eel is a native of New Guinea, eastern Australia (including Tasmania), Lord Howe Island, and New Caledonia. It can be found in many freshwater areas, including creeks, streams, rivers, swamps, dams, lagoons, and lakes although generally more often in rivers than lakes.

## Breeding and migration

Like other Anguilla species, the eel lives predominantly in freshwater rivers and streams, but is born in deep waters of the ocean. Each species has its own spawning grounds; spawn use ocean currents to return to their adult species range. The long-finned eel spawns in the Western arm of the Southern Equatorial Current, which carries spawn to the eastern coast of Australia. This species is panmictic, spawning throughout the year.

## Diet

A carnivorous species, the speckled longfin eel eats an assortment of aquatic vertebrates, such as fish, turtles, and small birds.
