East Timor consumes 125 GWh of electricity per annum, an average of 95 kWh per person. The country has about 80 MW of electricity capacity, 19 MW in Dili — the capital has an electrification rate of 85%, but rural electrification is at just 5–18%: total nationwide electrification is just 22% (one of the lowest electrification rates of any country in the world). Only the capital and Baucau have uninterrupted supply.

Most of the energy infrastructure was destroyed by the Indonesians during the 1999 East Timorese crisis. In 2005, the government identified the high price of electricity (US$0.20 per kWh) as a deterrent to development. Gariuai Hydroelectric Plant is the country's only hydro plant, with a production capacity of 326 kW. Many people rely on diesel generators. A feasibility study of 2007–10 concluded that the country had huge potential for renewable energy.

St. Mary's Episcopal Church was an Episcopal church in Athens, Georgia, United States. Completed in 1869, it came to prominence after the musical group R.E.M., then without a name, played its first concert at the location in 1980.

Built for the workers at the nearby R. L. Bloomfield Pottery, the factory's closure in 1892 led to the demise of the church's functionality.
72,703,315
70201656
History Built in 1869, and located at the foot of Carr's Hill, the first service was held at the church on April 9, 1871, by Robert Lee Bloomfield (1827–1916), who also designed the church. He based the design on his childhood church in his native Bound Brook, New Jersey.
72,703,316
70201656
Regular services were held for the next 21 years, but had stopped by 1899. Bloomfield's pottery business closed in 1892, resulting in a marked downturn in parishioners.

R.E.M. In the spring of 1979, Dan Wall, owner of Wuxtry Records, visited the property. He discovered that between the wall of the inner shell, created by the construction of the apartments, and the back wall of the original building was a large space containing the remnants of the altar. Although it had a hole in the roof and an unsound floor, under which there were two graves. Wall recognized the potential of the church as a rehearsal space and cleared it out. He lived there briefly too.
72,703,319
70201656
Later that year, Wall moved to Atlanta to manage its branch of Wuxtry. Peter Buck, who worked for Wall at the Athens branch, expressed an interest in taking over the church that his boss was renting out. Wall sub-let the apartment to Buck, his brother Ken, Kathleen O'Brien (a bartender at Athens' Tyrone's OC and a morning-show disc jockey on WUOG) and another girl named Robyn Bragg, although it is rumored that up to fifteen other people lived there as well, all contributing to the monthly rent of $350. "There were pews and a stage and ceilings and the old preachers were buried under the floor," explained Buck. "It was like something out of weird Tennessee Williams, this big, pink, decrepit church. It wasn’t so legendary as rumored. It was a real zoo. It was a dumpy little shithole where only college kids could be convinced to live. It was really wretched: slate falling off the walls. We lived with some girl who dealt drugs, and all of these sickos who would come over at four in the morning with 'the urge.'"

"Our first jam was in February [1980]," recalled Mike Mills, who became the third of the four members of the band. "It was cold; we didn’t have any heat. It was in the back of the church. I was trying to play with gloves on and steam was coming out of our mouths. I really enjoyed what Michael and Peter were doing with the songs Bill [Berry] and I brought, and it was clearly working."
72,703,321
70201656
At the end of the month, to celebrate her 20th birthday in just over a month's time, Kathleen O'Brien said she intended to throw a party at the church. At five weeks' notice, after a performance by John Cale at the Georgia Theatre, she asked the quartet to help provide the entertainment. They had only been practicing together for a few weeks and were less than enthusiastic with the idea. "She begged us to play," explained Berry, now also resident at the church. Mills slept on the church couch while rehearsals took place.
72,703,322
70201656
On April 5, 1980, Berry, Buck, Mills and Stipe played the arranged birthday concert, in support of the Side Effects, at the church, then home to Buck and his new friend Michael Stipe. The band became known as R.E.M. shortly thereafter.

In November 2010, a fire occurred at Rick Hawkins' print shop in front of the church at 376 Oconee Street. Established in the 1970s, the Athens magazine Flagpole was founded in the shop. Afterward, county inspectors told the Steeplechase Condominium Association that they either needed to repair the steeple of have it torn down. Although they voted for the latter, they did not arrange its demolition.

In 2013, Nuçi's Space became the owner of the steeple. Initially, the association was only willing to sell the tower itself, not the land on which it stands. Bob Sleppy, exeuctive director of Nuçi's Space, launched a fundraising campaign to facilitate its upkeep and build an adjacent meditation garden. Sleppy brought in Whitsel Construction, specialists in historic preservation, who removed a wall that had been part of the church but was not attached to the steeple. The project was completed in early 2020.

Maria Lioudaki (November 22, 1894 - December 4, 1947) was a Greek educator, folklorist, and resistance fighter. She promoted social action in Lasithi with her friend, Maria Drandaki (1914-1947), with whom she was arrested and killed during the Greek Civil War.
72,703,360
70201694
Personal life Lioudaki was born on November 22, 1894, in Latsida of Apano Mirabello, in the countryside of Crete to farmer Georgios Lioudakis and Aikaterini, from the genus Papazachariadis (family clan), and was the oldest of their 8 children. Growing up in a rural family, she experienced the sounds of the "Mantinadas" in the fields at work, in social gatherings, in dances; with emotional devotion.
72,703,361
70201694
Education She studied at the Girl's School of Naples and in 1908, immediately after graduation at the age of 14, began her career as a sub-teacher at the primary school of Kritsa. She also taught at Agios Georgios in Lassithi and at Fourni Mirabellou from 1912 to 1914.
72,703,362
70201694
In 1914 she graduated with honors from the School of Heraklion. From 1925 - 1927, after successfully passing her examinations, she studied at the University of Athens. In her postgraduate studies she was taught by Manolis Triantafyllidis, Dimitris Glinos, and Alexandros Delmouzos who instilled in her the idea of educational reform, including giving education to all social classes.
72,703,363
70201694
Triantafyllidis distinguished Lioudaki for her spiritual interests and introduced her to Folklore. Triantaphyllides also supported and instilled in Lioudaki the then-new ideas of educational reform. She received her postgraduate degree with honors.
72,703,364
70201694
Career After graduating, from 1927 - 1937, she took over as Principal of the Girl's School of Ierapetra which was housed in the old Turkish school in Mehtepi.

She complained about the poor condition of the building, and in 1929, sent a letter to the parents, who were mostly workers, fishermen, and farmers, saying. "Make sure you find your masters, move, work for your children." She shared her food with the poorest children in the school, and conducted extra classes without pay.

At the same time she took part in the trade union struggles: to improve the position of teachers and to provide a better Education to the children of the people."Man must be educated, and education does not distinguish in society between young and old, high and low. He who is not a coward in front of the supposed superiors and tortures his inferiors. An educated person is one who puts himself in second place to serve his neighbor. Educated is the man who suffers for their sorrow and rejoices for their joy. Education is something divine, he is the god who dwells in us."At the same time, she was also financially supporting her family including her siblings' educations and her youngest sister Hara's fiancé Napoleon Soukatzidis.
72,703,366
70201694

72,703,367
70201694
In the prologue of Mantinades of Crete Lioudaki refers to those who helped her in the work of collecting mantinadas in various ways. She makes a special reference to Napoleon Soukatzidis about whom she writes: "I especially thank the most noble and progressive child Napoleon Soukatzidis, who worked tirelessly in the collection of mantinades. Most of these are among the thousands he found… ”
72,703,368
70201694

70201694
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.
72,703,372
70201694
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.
72,703,373
70201694
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.

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.
72,703,376
70201694
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.

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.

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.
