When you call Model::read(), the data returned is automatically set in
the Model::$data array. When you call Model::find(), this does not
occur.
Also, with Model::read() you can only scan the model by the id; you
cannot perform complex operations that you can do with Model::find().
Note: Model::read() actually calls Model::find() to obtain the
resultset desired.
