Metaxas Regime In 1936, Ioannis Metaxas was appointed Prime minister of Greece by King George II. On August 4, 1936, with the support of King George II, Metaxas initiated a self-coup and established an authoritarian, nationalist and anti-communist regime, specifically outlawing the Communist Party of Greece (KKE). As such, Lioudaki's sister's fiancé Napoleon Soukatzidis was imprisoned for being a communist in April 1937. While in prison, Lioudaki wrote Soukatzidis letters, which were intercepted by the Metaxas regime. These letters were used as evidence against her and described as an offense "concerning the security of the social status." The Ministry of Education asked Lioudaki to sign a statement denouncing communism and dissolving her sister's engagement, but Lioudaki refused.

As a result of her refusal to sign the statement, Lioudaki was demoted from Principal to regular teacher at Ierapetra. The new principal at the school intervened to bring new disciplinary proceedings against Lioudaki claiming "the social regime is plotting!" Lioudaki was punished with six months suspension and a 50% cut in her salary.

Nazi Regime During April–May 1941, Nazi Germany invaded and began occupying Greece. During this period, KKE sought to reform the party with additional subsidiary groups and an anti-axis focus. In 1941, Lioudaki joined the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), becoming an important member of the militant resistance arm National Liberation Front (Greece) (EAM). She became a resistance coordinator along with Maria Drandaki and Maria Athanasaki to provide assistance to victims. Their activities included supporting orphans and homeless individuals resulting from the Viannos massacres, a mass extermination campaign launched by German forces against the civilian residents of around 20 villages near Crete, killing more than 500 people. In Drandaki's home and shop, Lioudaki would listen to illegal radio broadcasts from Allied forces (World War II) and prepare daily news bulletins which were distributed widely with other members of KKE. As a result of her resistance efforts, she was expelled from the Folklore Archives.

Death

Dekemvriana & Treaty of Varkiza After four years of Italian occupation at followed by German occupation, Ierapetra was liberated on September 12, 1944. EAM made efforts to rebuild the city and support efforts to feed inhabitants in the city. Lioudaki played a leading role in supporting food and culture. Tensions rose between the Communist Forces and the Greek government, culimnating in Dekemvriana, a series of clashes fought during World War II in Athens from 3 December 1944 to 11 January 1945. As a solution to these clashes, the Treaty of Varkiza was signed on February 12, 1945. According to the treaty, EAM had agreed to disarm as long as they would be allowed full participation in political activities. Ultimately, the promises enshrined in the Treaty of Varkiza were not upheld. The main problem was that the treaty gave amnesty only for political reasons, but many actions by communists during the Dekemvriana were viewed as nonpolitical. After the signing of the Varkiza pact, there was widespread persecution of communists and former EAM members and supporters. This period, immediately prior to the outbreak of the Greek Civil War, was known as the White Terror (Greece) (1945–46). The country became polarized, eventually leading to the outbreak of the Greek Civil War in March 1946, which lasted until 1949. The Communist Party of Greece remained legal during the Greek Civil War until 27 December 1947.

Death In May 1947, Lioudaki was arrested, together with Drandaki by the armed group of Bandouvas on November 26, 1947. Bandouvas and his team gathered a large number of citizens in the courtroom of Ierapetra and asked them to renounce communism. Those who did not do so were arrested. Among the detainees were Lioudaki and Drandaki. The two women were first taken to the Badouva stables and then to the Heraklion gendarmerie, where they were tortured, raped, and hanged on December 4, 1947. Drandaki was executed with a spear, and Lioudaki was strangled. Then Drandaki and Lioudaki were beheaded and their bodies crushed with stones and then thrown into a ravine in Myrtia, Heraklion. Six months later, the bodies of the two women were identified on the roof of the Prefecture of Heraklion. They were found by a farmer near the stables of Baduwa and identified by the braids in their clothing.

Maria's sister, Chara Lioudaki, survived and died in 2000.

Legacy A street in Ierapetra is named after Lioudaki and Drandaki.

In the square of Latsida Mirabello, a village near Neapoli, Lassithi, there is a sculpture monument in memory of Lioudaki.

The Library of the Educational Home of Ierapetra was named after Lioudaki, as well as the Association of Primary Education Teachers.

Rhodactis inchoata, otherwise known as the bullseye mushroom or Tonga blue mushroom, is a species of coral in the genus Rhodactis, this species is also, but more uncommonly, referred to as the hairy or small elephant ear mushroom. This species of Rhodactis cnidarian can also sometimes be kept in aquariums, and mostly prefers low to medium lighting in the room where it is kept in, and a low level in water movement, which makes this species easy to keep as a aquarium pet.

Aquarium care This species of coral mostly prefers low to medium light, and low lighting in general, in its environment, as well as low-water movement, which makes this species easy to maintain in an aquarium, which normally requires for the coral to be in the lower-regions of the aquarium tank, seeing as how it will be partially shaded off from all other light sources which might disturb it. The species itself is semi-aggressive, which, if you put it in a aquarium tank, you will have to be precise where abouts you put it, as it might damage, or even kill, other species in the tank itself due to how it is semi-aggressive in behaviour, and proper spacing must be observed in the tank.

Symbiotic relationships

R. inchoata has a symbiotic relationship with the species of algae called zooxanthellae, and this species of algae is contained within the tissues of R. inchoata. But when in captivity, you are required to feed this species nanoplankton, but you may add dissolved organics in the water itself if needed to.

Distribution

R. inchoata can be found in the waters of the indo-pacific ocean.

Description

R. inochoata possess a small surface covered all in with tentacles which form small clusters which give this species a unique appearance when comparing it to other corals. The stalk of this species is relatively small, and is often not noticed when spotted in a reef. The area around the oral disk of this species is bare, which makes R. inochoata an easy species to identify when going Scuba diving or when looking for it. R. inochoata can sometimes be found with purple bodies, and green margins, highlights of these margins include multicoloured green, red and blue, and while also possessing a red coloured mouth.

This species can actually warp to the surface of the oral disc, which changes the water flow around them and direct particulate and flocculent material which they then move to their mucous-covered centre in order to absorb the material. R. inochoata has been known to grow up to 1.5 - 3" (4 - 8 cm), however, the lifespan of this species has not been documented yet, leaving people puzzled about how long R. inochoata lives for.

Palyanytsia (Паляни́ця) is a type of Ukrainian hearth-baked bread, made mostly of wheat flour. The bread has a semi-circular cut across the top third of the load.

Etymology The word comes from "пали́ти", the Ukrainian word for "to burn" or "smoke". This is because, when baking the bread, the raised crust can sometimes be burned. In the 19th century, the Russians used similar names.

Ahatanhel Krymsky,a noted Ukrainophile and scholar, believed that the word "palyanitsa" comes from the Greek "pelanos" (Πελανος).

Recipe Traditional palyanitsa was baked from yeast dough. First, hops were boiled in a pot, which was then poured into a makitra, to which sifted wheat flour was added. The resulting dough was kneaded, covered with a makitra and left to cool. Yeast or sourdough was added to the cooled dough and placed in an unheated oven overnight. In the morning, the dough that had already risen was kneaded with wheat flour, and warm water and salt were added. The dough was then kneaded at night until it stopped sticking to the baker's hands. After that, the dough was divided into pieces, which were then rolled out on the table. The resulting bread was placed in the oven on a wooden shovel, sprinkled with flour or steamed cabbage leaf. Finally, an incision was made in the bread to allow it to rise further when baked.

According to GOST 12793-77, the bakeries of the USSR produced a standardized "Ukrainian palyanitsa" baked in molds. It had a weight of 750g-1kg, with a lateral cut of 3/4 of a circle.

Symbolism In Christianity, palyanitsa, like bread in general, symbolizes happiness and well-being, the body of God, affection, hospitality and security. Palyanitsa can also be interpreted as a symbol of the sun.

According to popular belief, you should not eat a piece of palyanitsa after another person, as doing so will take away their happiness. It is also unlucky to leave a piece uneaten; and eating bread behind another person's back will "eat" their strength.

Other uses The word "palyanytsia" is used as a shibboleth in the Ukrainian language, to identify people for whom the Ukrainian language is not native. Russians tend to pronounce "palyanitsa" with a soft sound "i" rather than "и", and "ц" sometimes replaces "тс". During the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the word became one of those proposed to use to identify subversive enemy reconnaissance groups.
