Terrazoanthus sinnigeri is a species of uncertain validity (taxon inquirendum) of macrocnemic zoanthid first found in the Galapagos.
It is potentially a junior synonym of Terrazoanthus patagonichus.
It can be distinguished by commonly occurring on rubble and rocks on sandy bottoms, having about 30–36 tentacles, and numerous nematocysts in its pharynx.

Lijon Eknilang (March 1, 1946 – August 2012) was a Marshallese activist and nuclear fallout survivor.
Eknilang advocated on behalf of residents of Rongelap Atoll, who were victims of nuclear fallout stemming from the Castle Bravo hydrogen bomb test at Bikini Atoll in 1954.
Eknilang was just eight years old at the time of the Castle Bravo hydrogen bomb test on March 1, 1954.
The resulting fallout from the test on Bikini Atoll sent a snowstorm-like covering of radioactive fallout, which covered Rongelap Atolls.
The eighty-two residents of Rongelap, including Eknilang, suffered long-term health problems due to the radiation.
Eknilang suffered eight miscarriages and could not have children.
Eknilang traveled extensively throughout the United States and Europe to draw attention to the health problems experienced by Rongelap's residents due to Castle Bravo.
She has been called an "icon in the Marshall Islands for her international advocacy on behalf of nuclear test victims."
Eknilang spoke on behalf of the former residents of Rongelap before the United States Congress.
She also spoke before the Advisory Proceedings on the Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons at the International Court of Justice in The Hague in November 1995.
Lijon Eknilang died in Majuro in late August 2012.

The Volkswagen Phaeton (
) (Typ 3D) is a full-size luxury sedan/saloon manufactured by the German automobile manufacturer Volkswagen, described by Volkswagen as their "premium class" vehicle.
Introduced at the 2002 Geneva Motor Show, the Phaeton was marketed worldwide.
Sales in North America ended in 2006 and global sales ended in 2016.
The name Phaeton derives from Phaëton, the son of Phoebus (or Helios) in Greek mythology, by way of the phaeton auto body style and the type of horse-drawn carriage that preceded it.
Production ended in March 2016 and an all-electric second generation was slated to be produced.
Starting in April 2017, the Gläserne Manufaktur Dresden assembles the e-Golf instead.
First and second series (2002)
(GP0/GP1)
Development
The Phaeton was conceived by Ferdinand Piëch, then chairman of Volkswagen Group, who wanted a car that would surpass the German prestige market leaders, Mercedes-Benz and BMW, in part as a response to Mercedes' and BMW's decision to compete in Europe directly with Volkswagen by introducing the A-Class and BMW 3 Series Compact.
Although the Volkswagen Group already had a direct competitor in the full sized luxury segment, the Audi A8, the Phaeton was intended to be more of a comfort-oriented limousine, like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Lexus LS, whereas the Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series are more performance-oriented.
Piëch also wanted to move the VW brand upmarket, with the Phaeton serving as the brand's flagship model.
Initial development of the Phaeton, given the internal project code VW611, began with Piëch giving his engineers a list of ten parameters the car needed to fulfill.
Most of these specifications were not made known to the public, but a number of them were told to automotive reporters.
One of them was that the Phaeton should be capable of being driven all day at with an exterior temperature of whilst maintaining the interior temperature at .
Piëch requested this even though the Phaeton's top speed was electronically limited to .
Other requirements were that the car should have a torsional rigidity of 37,000 N·m/degree, and that the electric motors that perform various functions in the car should be hidden for a cleaner look.
At the 1999 International Motor Show Germany, Volkswagen presented the Concept D, which was essentially a hatchback prototype of the Phaeton, with very similar design, V10 TDI engine, air suspension and all wheel drive.
Overview
The Phaeton used a special version of the Volkswagen D platform platform, designated D1. The D1 variant was shared with the Bentley Continental GT and Bentley Flying Spur, and was differentiated from the other D platform model, the Audi A8, by using all-steel construction, whereas the A8 continued to use the all-aluminum "Audi Space Frame" chassis.
Certain systems, such as the automatic transmission and some engines, are shared with the A8.
Compared to the Audi A8L 4.2 litre FSI quattro, the Phaeton is heavier but is still competitive with the lighter A8 in most driving tests, due to the Phaeton's increased engine power (335 hp versus 330) and a shorter axle ratio (3.65:1 versus 3.32).
However, the weight gives the Phaeton considerably worse acceleration and poorer fuel economy compared to the A8.
The Phaeton had the longest wheelbase in the Volkswagen passenger car line.
Features
Development of the vehicle led to over one hundred individual patents specific to the Phaeton. Distinctive features include a draftless four zone climate system and standard Torsen based 4motion four-wheel drive.
For high ride comfort, it introduced Adaptive Air Suspension with Continuous Damping Control (CDC)-(Skyhook suspension). The same suspension system, with firmer settings, was introduced in the technically similar Audi A8 in November 2002.
First Volkswagen with radar adaptive cruise control: automatic distance regulator (ADR).
Phaeton Lounge (2005)
The Phaeton Lounge was a concept car based on a lengthened version of the Phaeton with seating for four (two pairs of seats facing each other) in the rear compartment.
It features a W12 engine, a reinforced chassis, six speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, individual climate control for each passenger, front and rear wine coolers, a minibar, multi color mood lighting, a cigar humidor, two 17 inch monitors, DVD changer in the trunk, second DVD player in the rear cabin, and a Bluetooth enabled computer with a broadband connection.
The vehicle was unveiled in 2005 Middle East International Motor Show.
Production
The Phaeton was hand assembled in an eco friendly factory with a glass exterior, the Transparent Factory () in Dresden, Germany. This factory had a capacity of producing 20,000 vehicles a year, and was planned to expand to 35,000 vehicles a year.
It also assembled Bentley Flying Spur vehicles destined for the European market until October 2006, when all assembly of the Bentley products was transferred to Crewe, England.
The Phaeton body was fabricated and painted at the Volkswagen works at Zwickau, Germany, and the completed bodies were transported approximately 100 km by special road transport vehicles to the main factory.
Most Phaeton engines, the W12 being the notable exception, were built at the VW/Porsche/Audi engine plant in Győr, Hungary.
Reception and sales
Sales of the Phaeton fell far short of expectations. Its biggest market was China, followed by South Korea.

Later in the same year, he let Brooks take the wheel of his Connaught, giving the future Vanwall and Ferrari star his first big break.

Later in life, Riseley-Prichard became the centre of a child pornography scandal, and he emigrated to Thailand.

After a lengthy illness he died in Baan Kai Thuan, a remote village approximately inland of Bangkok.
