Category talk:British military personnel of the Palestine Emergency

Proposed renaming

 * Category:Palestine Emergency to Category:Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine – C2D per Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine Good Ol’factory (talk) 09:12, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Category:British military personnel of the Palestine Emergency to Category:British military personnel of the Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine
 * I'm not sure this would be an improvement. The main article Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine begins "Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine involved paramilitary actions carried out by Jewish underground groups against the British forces and officials in Mandatory Palestine between 1939 and 1948." So it does not seem accurate to refer to "the Jewish insurgency" as an event; perhaps "the period of Jewish insurgency"? Meanwhile, the term "Palestine Emergency" is used elsewhere for this period, in United Kingdom casualties of war (dates stated as 1945–48) and List of friendly fire incidents List of friendly fire incidents. Perhaps the most specific term would follow the section Jewish insurgency in Mandatory Palestine. However, "British military personnel of the Jewish Resistance Movement" or the nomination "British military personnel of the Jewish insurgency" might imply involvement in or support for the Movement/insurgency. I'd be inclined to just add dates at the end of the existing name. – Fayenatic  L ondon 15:50, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I revised the section link in the "friendly fire" article to 1945–48, as this also matches the dates given in the biographies in the subcat. – Fayenatic  L ondon 21:22, 10 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose these two, not uncontroversial. – Fayenatic  L ondon 23:18, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Moved the first one to a full discussion. Good Ol’factory (talk) 02:54, 30 June 2016 (UTC)

protecting water tank from hurricane
I'm reading that bottled water is being airlifted into the hurricane-stricken parts of the Bahamas, and I remember similar things from other hurricanes. Would it really have been that hard to set aside a supply of water on the island ahead of time, either specifically for the hurricane or just kept around at all times, to be dispensed to residents in case of emergency? The article Olympic-size swimming pool conveniently says that such a pool holds 660,000 gallons of water, so having a comparable volume around seems doable and would free up transport capacity for other stuff. Just wondering. Bottled water is always the first thing people think of and it has always seemed crazy to me. Ziploc bags work pretty well as impromptu water carriers as long as you don't throw them, so they would be ok for dispensing into from tank trucks or whatever. Just a thought. Thanks. <IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 05:18, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Propositioning emergency supplies, including water, is a strategy that's sometimes used. There are some limitations though:

 * Often there is little time to make such preparations.

 * It's often not clear exactly where a hurricane will hit worst, meaning these preparations may be needed in many places, most of which will not be used.

 * It must be assumed that the transportation infrastructure will be disrupted, meaning that those emergency supplies must be within walking distance of each person. So, many smaller supply depots are needed instead of one large, central depot. And "walking distance" may be much shorter than pre-storm, as it involves walking over debris, downed trees, etc.

 * Leaving personnel to weather the storm and then deliver the supplies may not be possible. The other alternative of bringing in personnel afterwards may also be difficult, as there may not be any place for a helicopter to land, so they would need to rappel down ropes. And these personnel would also need equipment and supplies (and maybe weapons to protect themselves and the supplies from looters). You could also leave the supplies unguarded and allow the locals to distribute them, but this could go wrong if an armed gang gains control of them, keeping in mind that lawlessness may result following the storm.

 * The locals need to be informed of the location of the supply depots. Since communications are likely to be down, maybe some form of automated loudspeaker and/or lights at night would work, as long as the batteries, and maybe solar cells, lasted.

 * To survive the storm and not be washed out to sea, the supplies may need to be anchored to bedrock. Not something that can be done all that quickly.

 * Ports and airports may be overcrowded with evacuees, making delivery of supplies harder. Instead of sending in cargo planes and ships, the best you might be able to do is ship what supplies you can on passenger planes and ships headed to pick up evacuees.

 * Once the supplies arrive at ports, delivering them to their end locations would also be difficult, due to roads crowded by evacuees. Then evacuating the staff who deliver them would also be difficult. SinisterLefty (talk) 08:15, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Drinking bottled water may be crazy if you have a reliable supply of piped drinking water, but it does make sense in an emergency. Bags or pouches need to be opened and a significant amount of the content is likely to be spilled, whereas a bottle controls it better.  And water mains and pumping systems, of course, may be damaged in the emergency. --<IP_ADDRESS> (talk) 09:32, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
 * On forrested islands in the Mediterranean there are water reservoirs kept for fire fighting. However the Water quality for human consumption of the stagnant water is doubtful without on-going Water treatment. DroneB (talk) 12:04, 13 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Drinking water can be stored indefinitely, but only under some very specific conditions:

 * It must be stored in an airtight glass container, as water will react/interact with either plastic or metal over time.

 * The cap/seal is also tricky, as a metal or plastic lid poses some risk, but less so if there's an air gap between the cap and the water. Better yet, use a glass lid with a silicone rubber seal, and also leave an air gap.

 * The water must be sterile to begin with. This requires home canning techniques as are used in sterilizing preserves in mason jars. SinisterLefty (talk) 11:10, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Also note that in addition to drinking water, there's need for water for bathing, washing dishes and clothes, cooking, etc. That water doesn't need to be quite so pristine, especially if the final rinse is done with potable water. So, it could be stored in plastic containers and doesn't need to be sterilized. You would have to mark it clearly as "not for drinking", though. SinisterLefty (talk) 00:49, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

George Radcliffe Colton

George Radcliffe Colton (April 10, 1865 – April 6, 1916) was an American politician and civil servant. He served in the Nebraska House of Representatives and as governor of Puerto Rico from November 6, 1909, to November 15, 1913, a position to which he was appointed by President William Howard Taft.

Early life
George Radcliffe Colton was born on April 10, 1865, in Galesburg, Illinois, to Francis Colton. His father was a bank president, diplomat and railroad financier. He attended Knox College.

Career
In the 1880s he was a rancher in New Territory. Colton organized the Central Nebraska National Bank in David City, Nebraska, in 1887. He served as vice president of the bank from its organization until January 1, 1889, when he became cashier. He remained cashier until his resignation on February 15, 1898. He then worked as national bank examiner for a few months. He served in the Nebraska House of Representatives from 1889 to 1890. He served as a colonel in the National Guard. He served as a lieutenant colonel of the First Regiment of the Nebraska Volunteers of the United States Army in the Philippine–American War from May 1898 to 1899.

In August 1899, he joined the customs service in the Philippines as a deputy collector. He later became a collector of customs in Iloilo. In 1905, he was chosen to organize the Dominican customs service and served in the Dominican Republic as a U.S. receiver. In 1907, he was appointed as collector of customs in Manila. In 1909, he returned to the United States to help in the revision of tariff laws with the Philippines. Colton was appointed as governor of Puerto Rico in December 1909. He held the office until his resignation on November 5, 1913. After his retirement, he focused on his property interests in South America and returned to the United States to work in business.

Personal life
Colton married Jessie T. McLeod on October 16, 1889. They had two sons, Francis and George. His wife predeceased him.

According to the 1910 U.S. Census of Puerto Rico, Colton lived in barrio Catedral on Allen Street (Calle de Allen). He lived there with his sister Margarite Colton and three servants. He later lived in Connecticut and by the time of his death, he had moved in with his sister in Washington, D.C.

Colton died on April 6, 1916, at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. He was buried in Oak Hill Cemetery.

So this is a student-run station which was on air for a very brief period, and Flava has now reverted to being a regional college webcast while 209radio is still awaiting a longer-term license.

General Biology/Animal Evolution

The Evolutionary Tree in Animals
There are many competing hypotheses for the form of the evolutionary tree of animals. A traditional hypothesis is that the tree resembles a tuning fork: it has a short base and two main branches. However, there is recent molecular evidence that challenges part of this traditional hypothesis.

Under the tuning fork model, the "base" of the tree includes structurally simple animals like sponges, corals, and their relatives.

One main branch includes arthropods, molluscs, annelids, and nematodes. This branch, or a large part of it, usually is called the protostomes.

The second main branch includes vertebrates (phylum Chordata), and starfish, sea urchins, and their relatives (phylum Echinodermata). This branch usually is called the deuterostomes.

Flatworms (phylum Platyhelminthes), which include free living planarians as well as parasitic flukes and tapeworms may be placed very low on the protostome branch, or high on the trunk just below the protostome - deuterostome branching.

Support for the "Tuning Fork" Model
The features of animals that have been interpreted as suggesting a tuning fork model are extremely basic characteristics of body organization and early embryonic development.

Asymmetry
Lack of any symmetry. Many sponges are asymmetric.

Bilateral Symmetry
There is only one plane of symmetry, and it is anterior-to-posterior, dorsal-to-ventral, through the midline.

Characteristic of most protostomes and the higher deuterostomes.

Presence of True Tissues
Tissues are defined as an integrated group of cells that share a common structure and a common function (for example, nervous tissue or muscle tissue).

Sponges are described as lacking true tissues.

True tissues are present in Cnidaria, flatworms, and all higher animals.

Number of Embryonic Germ Layers
Germ layers are defined as the basic tissue layers in the early embryo which give rise developmentally to the organs and tissues of the adult (e.g., ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm).

This is a concept that is applied only to organisms considered to have true tissues.

Two Germ Layers
Organisms with two germ layers are said to be diploblastic.

This is characteristic of Cnidarians.

Three Germ Layers
Such organisms are said to be triploblastic.

This is characteristic of flatworms and all higher organisms.

Four Germ Layers (?)
Some developmental biologists consider the neural crest tissue of vertebrate embryos to be a fourth germ layer.

Nature of the Main Body Cavity
Most triploblastic animals have a fluid-filled space somewhere between the body wall and the gut. Such a cavity can provide numerous functional advantages.

For example, peristalsis of the gut need not affect the body wall, and movements of the body wall during locomotion need not distort the internal organs.

We will consider three conditions with respect to the body cavity:

Acoelomates
These animals lack an enclosed body cavity; the only "body cavity" is the lumen of the digestive tube.

The space between the gut and the body wall is filled with a more or less solid mass of mesodermal tissue.

The major example of this is the phylum Platyhelminthes, the flatworms. Minor examples: Phylum Nemertea (Rhynchocoela) and Phylum Gnathostomulida (not responsible for these "minor" examples).

Pseudocoelomates
Pseudocoelomates have a fluid-filled cavity between the body wall and the gut, but it does not form within mesoderm, nor does it end up fully enclosed by mesoderm.

This cavity often is interpreted as being a developmental remnant of the blastocoel, the fluid-filled cavity of the blastula stage of the embryo.

To distinguish it from the next grade, this type of cavity is called a pseudocoelom.

Major examples of pseudocoelomates include the phyla Nematoda (round worms) and Rotifera (rotifers). Other phyla listed in the table that are considered to be pseudocoelomates are flagged with an asterisk. Note that recent molecular data in particular have challenged the "naturalness" of the pseudocoelomates as a possible taxon.

Coelomates
Coelomate animals also have a fluid-filled cavity between the body wall and the gut.

In this grade, however, the cavity is completely enclosed by mesoderm.

Major examples of coelomates include molluscs, arthropods, echinoderms, and chordates.

The protostome-deuterostome distinction
The distinction is based on several fundamental characteristics of early development.

Characteristic:
 * Protostomes
 * Deuterostomes

Determinate vs. indeterminate cleavage
 * Determinate
 * Indeterminate

Spiral vs. radial cleavage
 * Spiral
 * Radial

Fate of the blastopore
 * Mouth
 * Anus

Source of mesoderm
 * Lip of blastopore
 * Wall of archenteron

Formation of coelom
 * Schizocoely
 * Enterocoely

Phyla Echinodermata, Hemichordata, Chordata
 * Mollusca, Annelida, Arthropoda
 * Roundworms & flatworms, although non-coelomate, demonstrate other protostome features, and so are included in this group by some authorities.
