Don't get me wrong. Malaysia is a beautiful country with friendly people. It's just that I made some mistakes and I hope other tourists would avoid at all cost so as not to ruin a rather fun vacation.
1. Ignoring the sanctity of religious places
I was walking around the campus of International Islamic University and as a curious tourist, I entered the campus mosque. I was curious and wanted to see what's going inside. I saw people take off their shoes before going in and so I did. I was not disrespectful at all, you see. As I entered the mosque, I didn't realize that it was a time of prayer and one guy followed me and spoke to me in a foreign language.
I didn't know what he was saying and as I try to answer him in a polite manner, he raised his voice as if I committed something wrong. I started to panic and out of desperation to escape the situation and to tame his anger, I bended my knees and started praying. I thought this is a place for prayer so I should be praying anyway, right? He got more angry and one Malaysian guy noticed us and spoke to me in English.
I felt relief and comfort from that moment and finally I can explain my side. I told the guy that I was only curious and wanted to see the mosque. Later I found out that the guy who spoke no English was from Kazakhstan and the Malaysian guy told him that I am not a Muslim. The Malaysian guy told me that the Kazakh guy was asking me to pray with him.
After the explanation, I apologized to the Kazakh guy and thanked the Malaysian guy for helping me. I left the mosque feeling guilty and promised to myself to be sensitive to religious places whereever I may be.
2. Leaving my baggage in hotel custody
Most hotels allow their guests to leave luggage under their custody for different reasons. First, guests are checking out in the morning but the flight is not until the afternoon or evening. In this case, the hotel allows guests to leave their luggage and give the guests a claim tag which they should present upon claiming as proof of ownership.
Second, valuables of guests like jewelries, cash, laptops, etc. can be left under the hotel custody during the period guests are billeted at the hotel. Third, guests may leave their luggage if they are checking out but has another confirmed booking sometime in the future.
Under any of the three circumstance, the hotel has the obligation to keep and ensure the safety of the guests' belongings. I fall under the third circumstance. I checked out of the hotel to continue traveling to Sabah, but then I have a confirmed booking seven days later. So as not to bring all my stuff to Sabah, I decided to leave my luggage at the hotel.
To make the long story short, I came back to the hotel seven days later to find out that some of my things including an electronic gadget were missing. I reported the incident to the manager and was surprised that he even had the guts to blame me for not taking care of my stuff. I felt helpless and decided to report to the police. This was already 12 midnight. I jut came back from Sabah feeling exhausted and now I have to face this ordeal.
I went to the police station knowing this may be a useless effort but I did anyway. The police asked me to narrate the events. The police on duty looked uninterested in helping me at all. After my narration, he printed the police report and gave it to me. I didn't lose hope since I had no hope at all even before going there anyway. At least I've tried.
That was a lesson learned for me. I don't think mentioning the name of the hotel can serve any purpose as this can happen to any hotel, even the most expensive ones.
3. Throwing away my arrival card
I was leaving Malaysia and got to the airport in time to catch an early morning flight. I checked-in to my flight and proceeded immediately to the immigration counter. The officer looked serious, as any other immigration officer around the world. I know it's only a routine of a quick glance of my passport and stamp out of my way, until the officer asked me to hand in my arrival card. I felt numb for a half second. I tried to composed myself and not feel nervous. I told him that I lost it together with my other belongings in the hotel.
I handed him the police report. It showed there that I lost some of my belongings. The immigration officer seemed satisfied and let me out. Had I tried to looked for my arrival card in my bag, the officer would instantly know that I lost it in my possession and the alibi of saying I lost it in the hotel wouldn't work.
As I was waiting for my flight at the boarding gate, I realized that I threw several papers while I was in Sabah. I can clearly remember that one of those papers was my arrival card. That moment, the arrival card was not important anymore.
My flight took off. Everything is now but a recollection of memory.

Indeed, like the song says Susie Elelman is a spectacular woman and what's more she has impeccable taste as she loves Tasmania especially Salamanca and Port Arthur. Susie will no doubt be visiting the state a lot more since her brother's best friend moved here.
Another friend, a canyoner had what could have been a disastrous experience in Tassie when he and his girlfriend became stuck in a cave but being experienced and a strict adherer to safety he did all the right things including leaving a note of his intended whereabouts so he and his girlfriend were thankfully found.
Susie has had a very eclectic career including talk back radio where she rues the limited number of women involved. She is a strong proponent of equality and the 'Me too' movement and pay parity.
Perhaps best known for her work on 'Good Morning Australia' with Bert Newton and her own chat show 'Susie',she jokingly tells me the naming of the show was not decided by her but says if having your show named after you is good enough for Oprah and Ellen, then its fine with her too. She speaks with particular pride of 'Susie' for which she was the executive producer and her very own concept for a daily lifestyle show of which 309 episodes were made and was affiliated on Channel Nine around Australia.
Working hard and giving back has been something Susie's wonderful parents encouraged her to do. Both her mum and her dad were extraordinary. Her dad was a holocaust survivor and her mum's house was bombed in Germany and left her in a coma for a time. Her parents arrived in Australia via Italy where Susie's brother suffered chickenpox. All they had was a suitcase and five quid in her dad's pocket.
The public life of Susie began when she was encouraged to enter the Miss Australia contest. She soon found herself in a very public role, which would extend beyond the requisite 15 minutes of fame. These elusive 15 minutes are the topic of Susie's book which includes some secret insights into the lives of celebrities she has worked with or heard about but Susie has left it up to the reader to take a guess.
Susie does however discuss some of her favourite people and memorable interviews. Whoopie Goldberg, Susie says, was her favourite interview subject. Whoopie moved away from her minders to join Susie outside for the chat. She was so impressed with Susie who was standing in for Clive Robertson that she sent the latter a recorded message saying how good Susie was. Susie was also part of Liberace's tour entourage required to keep him provided with cigarettes as he so wished. Noticing her addressing him as Mr Liberace he said to her 'call me Lee'.
Away from international guests her favourite Aussie personality to work with is Bert Newton. She is reminded of an incident when a cameraman was mentioning his 25 years on channel 10 and how Bert remembered this significant achievement and brought him a celebratory bottle. Bert was also known to reply to all mail that arrived at the show even if it were for Susie he would write a letter saying it had been forwarded to her. Susie is very impressed by Bert's work ethic and how he could juggle it!
She says he did Good Morning Australia five days a week for three and a half hours each a day and then theatre and then eight and a half hours doing live theatre.
Bert says Susie only used his clip board as a tele promoter to see who the next guest was, read it quickly and then didn't refer to it for the duration of the interview.
Susie can be seen on 'The Chat Room' on Channel Nine Daily News and on 'Studio 10'.
'15 Minutes of Fame' by Susie Elelman is out now published by New Holland Press.

IMF: Cambodia Cannot Avoid the Consequences of the Global Economic Crisis! – Saturday, 14.3.2009
The Mirror, Vol. 13, No. 603
Apologies for the delays in publishing – due to my international travel. I try to catch up as soon as possible.
Norbert Klein
Apologies for the rough language – it is the policy of The Mirror to provide readers of the English translations a glimpse at the sometimes rough world of Khmer journalism as it is – as always, without endorsing opinions expressed, nor being able to verify the veracity of original statements.
"A representative of the International Monetary Fund, Mr. John Nelmes [IMF Resident Representative in Cambodia], had predicted that Cambodia would encounter the consequences of the global economic crisis, and it is necessary to be prepared in advance.
"However, Prime Minister Hun Sen, who has no economic skills, became angry and shouted that the Cambodian economy cannot decline as predicted by this person or by that person.
"It should be remembered that the IMF had warned recently, 'Cambodia is heading toward an economic downturn and the GDP will decline to a growth rate of only 0.5% this year, after there was rigid growth during one whole decade.'
"Moreover, Mr. John Nelmes emphasized again on Thursday [12 March 2009], 'The Cambodian economy is in a negative status, such instability happens in the context of a bleak global economic atmosphere. We are talking about a period of dramatic decline in economic activities. So far, what we have seen is that the depth of the downturn is worse than expected.'
"Mr. John Nelmes added, 'Any hope for next year's economic growth in Cambodia is not clear, because we foresee only 3% growth for 2010, but it might change.'
"Mr. Nelmes went on to say, 'The export data of some countries are terrible, and the US retail sellers will have negative growth rates this year. This is not a good omen for garment exports.'
"Mr. Nelmes continued to say that also the high inflation in 2008, and the rising price of the dollar make Cambodia to become a more expensive goal for tourism.
"He predicted that tourism, which had an annual growth rate of nearly 20% during three or four years, decreased to around only 5% in 2008, and might also encounter negative growth rates in 2009. The selling of cars and of motorbikes dropped now by 50%, [for cars] and it had been down by 20% at the end of 2008, compared to the twelve months of the previous year.
"The executive director of the ANZ Royal Bank, Mr. Stephen Higgins, said that Cambodia needs cheaper electricity and more roads to encourage broader commercial exchanges.
"Mr. Higgins added that while one kilowatt/hour of electricity costs around US$0.05 in Vietnam, in Cambodia it can cost up to US$0.18, which is much more expensive than in Vietnam. He went on to say that the cost of transportation of agricultural goods in Cambodia is four times more expensive than in Thailand, adding, 'This is a big difficulty. If the government wants to spend its money, it should spend it on anything that promotes the productivity in the country.' He continued to say that although the agricultural structure might get improved and likely earn additional income, employment opportunities will be less. More production in different other sectors besides the garment sector will absorb a growing number of the labor force. The garment sector was producing more than half of the industrial output of the country, while food production earned only about 10 percent.
"Also, Mr. Higgins looks forward to the promise that there will be a Commercial Court to solve commercial disputes, which is a key factor to encourage investors.
"He added that corruption is still another concern for investors – different anti-corruption laws and regulations could solve this situation. He said, 'Everything to clear up corruption will have long-lasting results.'
"Recently, a parliamentarian and spokesperson of the Sam Rainsy Party, Mr. Yim Sovann, said, 'The government has to recognize the serious situation of Cambodia and must not conceal it. And the government must really support the budget package of around US$500 million [proposed by the Sam Rainsy Party] to encourage the economy.'
"The spokesperson of the Sam Rainsy Party said so after the Prime Minister, Mr. Hun Sen, who has no economic skills, had dismissed the predictions about the dramatic downturn of the economy of the country, which suffers the impacts of the global economic crisis.
"The Prime Minister, who boasts about his political achievements, claimed proudly to protect this bad face, saying , 'Growth in agriculture can surely prevent Cambodia from falling into an economic crisis, even though some major sectors of the Cambodian economy encounter a downturn.'
"Because of this persistence, without recognizing what is right or wrong, Hun Sen predicted the future of the economy in Cambodia himself, 'Cambodia will have 6% GDP growth in 2009.' Prime Minister Hun Sen chatted lightly, referring to America, Europe, Japan, and Korea as elephants. He added, 'The global economic crisis in Asia in 1997 was like a sheep that fell dead on the elephants' legs. But now, the elephants died and fell on sheep's legs.'
"Mr. Yim Sovann said, 'If the government still hides the rate of economic changes, they will be hurt by it in turn.' He added that the IMF might make only few mistakes in their forecasting, which is technical and it is not colored by politics.
"He went on to say, 'The government should not mix politics with technical problems.'
"The Cambodian economic growth, predicted for 2009 after just two or three months, was nearly 5%. However, on Friday last week [6 March 2009], the IMF listed Cambodia among the countries facing an economic slowdown.
"The IMF predicted that Cambodia will have another 0.5% drop in economic growth, because of the global economic crisis, and the decline of tourism, and of the construction and the garment sectors." Khmer Machas Srok, Vol.3, #364, 14.3.2009

Fetal congenital anomalies are among the leading causes of perinatal death or survival with disability worldwide. Their accurate antenatal detection employing a range of fetal imaging techniques enables parental choices to be made and for postnatal care of affected babies to be planned. While such prenatal care is well developed in developed countries of the world, it remains poor in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This review article examines the scope of the problem and proffers strategies for service organization and fetal imaging that will improve care in LMIC settings.

Things To Do in Punta del Hidalgo - Tenerife's Amazing Natural Pool
Punta del Hidalgo is a small coastal village with a beautiful natural swimming pool, which is best enjoyed during the summer months.
Punta del Hidalgo is part of the municipality of La Laguna and is situated very close to Bajamar, another tranquil place to visit in this area of Tenerife North.
From Punta del Hidalgo the road only continues up to Lighthouse, although the last section of the road up to the Faro de Punta del Hidalgo is not asphalted, so you must be careful if you drive there. The wind is usually quite strong there and there are a few coves and small rocky beaches, very isolated, remote and quiet, where you can expect to have a relaxing day of sunbathing.
In Punta del Hidalgo you will not find the big chains of hotels like in the south of Tenerife and no all-inclusive holiday packages are available for this part of the island. So if you're looking for a different holiday in Tenerife, in a secluded and quiet place, away from mass tourism, Punta del Hidalgo might be the best choice for you. Or possibly Bajamar, only a few miles away up the road.
Punta del Hidalgo is especially popular during the summer months, as it can be quite chilly and windy during the winter season. In summer, Punta del Hidalgo is a popular place to visit even for residents of La Laguna, which is situated only 20 minutes away by car.
What to do and what to see in Punta del Hidalgo
The natural swimming pool in Punta del Hidalgo
This lovely natural pool is the village's top attraction and it's really beautiful, ideal to cool off during the summer heat, although you can swim in it all year round, depending on the weather (we've been there even in winter, in February or March and people were swimming in the pool, although we personally felt the water was too cold for us).
Punta del Hidalgo Lighthouse
You can drive from Punta del Hidalgo up to the lighthouse, or you can take a walk along the coast and enjoy the wild and rugged landscape.
It is a modern lighthouse, built in 1994 and it is currently one of the 7 lighthouses still in use on the coast of Tenerife.
Other places to see in the area
- San Mateo Church
- The mirador from Capilla del Carmen
- Roque de los Dos Hermanos
- Mirador de San Mateo
- Ermita de San Juanito
- Mirador El Homician
- Mirador de Sabanda

Usually, the writing agreement that freelancers sign with their clients contains several clauses. However, not all clauses carry the same weight. Some are more important than others. As a freelancer, it is your responsibility to develop a knack for identifying the must-include clauses in your agreement. Otherwise, you would be setting yourself up for a bit of disappointment. What is more, your entire consultancy may go up in flames once some of your clients realize your mistake. Avoid sending the writing agreement to clients until you study it with surgical precision.
What are the most important clauses in your writing agreement? Find the answers below.
Freelance writers who have worked or are working regular jobs are accustomed to regular pay at the end of the month or week. However, once you opt to go freelance fulltime, you should be ready to forego such privileges. Instead, your life will now be defined by irregular pay. Mostly, clients will pay you an upfront fee (or deposit) before settling the balance later once you complete the job. As you may have recognized, such an arrangement makes you too vulnerable for comfort. In such scenarios, your saving grace would be the milestone pay clause.
Through this clause, you would be protecting yourself from exploitation. More importantly, you would be entitled to a partial payment every time you deliver a portion of the project. That way, the client will remain with a very tiny portion of your pay, which would be to your advantage in case some customers decide to take off before settling the balance. Get yourself up to scratch by studying as many writer agreement samples as you can find. Read different milestone clauses from fellow writers to improve your knowledge regarding them too.
The clause regarding kill fees is just as important as any other that appears on the freelancer's writing agreement. Kill fees come into effect anytime clients decide to cancel a project that you were discussing with them. Without it, clients would be legally free to walk off at any time before you submit the article you were working on without paying you. However, the presence of this clause protects you. Once clients see this clause, they realize that they can't just take off. Instead, they have to compensate you first for the work you have done thus far!
Where kill fees are concerned, you should remember to set them reasonably. Otherwise, you may set the fees too high only to burn the bridges with some of your clients. Additionally, the fees should not be standard throughout the duration of the project. Adjust them depending on where you have reached with the project. On top of that, it pays to give clients a brief period just after the two of you sign the writing agreement when they can walk away without paying kill fees. The aim is to protect yourself without hurting your relationships with the clients.
How can clients use your articles? When should they start using those articles? Where will the articles appear? These questions represent the few that should always form the basis of the clause regarding usage rights. Otherwise, your articles might appear on websites or platforms with a horrible reputation thus damaging your standing as a freelance writer. What is more, failure to include this clause could also render you helpless in case clients opt to take your words out of context. Such issues shouldn't matter to you only if you work as a ghostwriter.
Therefore, writers should learn to include these crucial clauses in any writing agreement.

A Year of Magic
Hello friends!
How is your week going? Can you believe how close Christmas is?
This of course also means it is almost time for a new year. And along with that come a new "one little word."
I wanted to jump on today to talk about my one little word for 2017, which was
, and share some big, VERY magical, news!
When I chose magic, or rather when it chose me, I really didn't know exactly how true it would become as 2017 unfolded.
It truly has been a magical year for me, especially with this art business of mine. Before I share my big news, first let me recap some of the bits of magic that have led me up to it.
The first wonderfully magical surprise of 2017 was being invited to contribute monthly printable sets to the
Illustrated Faith shop
I began with my first set in April, and my most recent
December set
will be my last. Although I'm hoping they'll invite me back for another special project at some point!
Man, what a fantastic experience. I learned and grew so much as an artist and found myself included in such a supportive community of women. A blessing in so many ways.
The second magical opportunity that came my way this year was
teaching for Big Picture Classes
Having their videographer come to my house to film me and the entire process of creating the classes was such a learning experience, and again, gave me the chance to become a part of another wonderfully supportive community of creative folks.
In the midst of this, I bought my iPad, which was a major game-changer. (BIG thanks to my hubby for practically forcing me to buy it after drooling over it and talking about it for weeks!)
I was seeing so many other artists raving about theirs, but let's face it, I'm SO frugal, and it was a BIG investment.
The biggest financial investment I've made in my art career so far.
And it has by far been the best decision. I had no idea I could create practically all of my artwork on it. Such a magical piece of equipment!
I also had the opportunity to create some really wonderful local projects, including a wall mural and coloring pages for our local schools. I live in such a fantastic, supportive community.
OK, so now that all of that magic is out of the way, here's the big one. The grand finale of my magical year, but hopefully only the beginning.
In October, I signed with
Pink Light Studio
I have an art agent.
Say what? Who's life is this?
Apparently it is mine, and goodness I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it. This kind of magic happens to other people, you know? But apparently it can happen to anyone, including this small town Indiana girl with an over abundance of hope.
If you aren't sure what signing with an art agent means, I will be creating collections of art for them, and they will share the collections with companies who buy the art to put on all sorts of products like wall art and gift wrap and fabric and journals and basically anything you find art on in a store.
Pretty fantastic right? Pinching myself daily.
I've been working toward this for what seems like forever, but it has really only been like four years. Crazy.
So I'm still in the beginning stages, learning how all of it works, and cranking out all sorts of artwork.
This is a fun collage of my first collection I created for Pink Light,
Cozy Christmas
I am so in love with it and proud of how far I've come.
And I'm learning that it is OK to say you are proud of yourself.
That is a hard one for me.
The process of creating this first collection was equal parts exciting and anxiety-inducing, so in some ways it felt like growing and giving birth to another child. And I'm one proud momma!
I can't wait to see what 2018 brings as I dive further into this art licensing journey. Hoping to keep carrying on that 2017 magic for sure!
I shared this quote in last year's one little word post, and man did it ever come true for this past year...
Thanks SO MUCH for being along for this ride with me. I have the BEST cheerleaders.
And now I need a word for 2018. Tough shoes to fill for sure.
Any suggestions?

Here, is another wonderful work of art By the Croation artisan Daniel Mustran. He perfectly used the high grade of briar, which is complete match with the general shape of this creation. Moreover, stunning finish and olive wood insertion makes it more unique in the way of being. Another important issue that is always visible in Daniel's work, is the way of his designation. This wonderful pipe perfectly lay in the hand and with its glossy finish pleases the eyes. With no doubt, this pipes could be considered as one of his best works with this Measurement.
Daniel Mustran was born in Germany in 1975. A year or so, after he was born, his parents moved to Croatia where he is living since. He has a degree in electronic engineering and he is currently working in transformer station maintenance. For years he was interested in Hi-Fi electronics especially tube electronics and he is specialized in audio amplifiers – developing them from scratch into fine pieces of equipment that are able to produce "music" with emotion and accuracy.
During his whole life, from the time he can remember, he was fascinated with pipes and people smoking them. From time to time, he has been fortunate enough to get the chance to talk with guys that were smoking them. He liked it a lot – the smoke, the "ritual" wrapped around it, everything. But, what he liked the most was the sense of peace those guys had while smoking those beautiful pieces of functional art. As this is what pipes truly are.
He started making pipes in spring 2010 and finished first one on Aug 13th. Since this time he carved alot of wonderful and interesting piece of arts. His ability developed very fast in a way that just after 3 years all of his pipes speak for themselves. With enormous success, Daniel has produced a handful of freehand shapes with different concept and dynamic. He mostly inserts several inlay rings in his work, In this case this also could consider as a signature for this artisan.
Here you will find some of his finest art craft with great attention to the grain and finish. Looking to his creations, you can be easily able to feel the amount of energy and joy invested while making them.

|Sublingual Cannabidiol for Anxiety
|Brief Summary
|This study evaluates the effects of cannabidiol (CBD) for the treatment of anxiety in adults. Participants will use a sublingual (under-the-tongue) tincture of whole plant derived CBD three times daily for four weeks in addition to their normal treatment regimen. Participants' clinical state will be assessed weekly during the treatment period. In addition, cognitive function and measures of quality of life, sleep, and general health will be assessed at baseline and the post-treatment final visit.
|Detailed Description
Cannabis has been used for medicinal purposes across many cultures for a range of disorders dating as far back as 2700 B.C. The plant is comprised of a variety of components, including phytocannabinoids that act on CB1 and CB2 receptors. Numerous phytocannabinoids are present in cannabis, including the major psychoactive constituent of cannabis, delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which acts as a CB1 receptor agonist. Another phytocannabinoid, cannabidiol (CBD), is a major non-psychoactive constituent of cannabis and is only a partial agonist at CB1 receptors. Increasing evidence indicates that CBD in particular may have significant medicinal properties and benefits; experimental studies in both animals and humans have demonstrated that CBD can act as an anticonvulsant, antipsychotic, and muscle relaxant. CBD is often found in higher levels in products dispensed as medical marijuana relative to strains used primarily for recreational use. Several studies have demonstrated that CBD produces acute anxiolytic effects in animals and humans, although thus far no clinical trials of CBD have been conducted in patients with anxiety. As a growing number of states are legalizing medical marijuana, a gap exists in the scientific literature regarding the effects of CBD on anxiety.
This investigation is composed of two phases. Phase 1 is comprised of a four-week, open label clinical trial of a high-CBD containing compound in individuals with anxiety. Participants will be pre-screened by phone in order to evaluate their eligibility for the study. If approved, participants will come to the hospital for a baseline/screening visit, and will complete a structured clinical interview, clinical and quality of life questionnaires, and cognitive assessments. Enrolled participants will be given tincture to use for the duration of the study; participants will be instructed to self-administer 1 milliliter (ml) of the tincture under the tongue three times per day for four weeks. Throughout the treatment period, participants will return to the hospital on a weekly basis to complete questionnaires about their mood and quality of life. Participants will also return to the hospital for a final visit after four weeks of treatment to complete additional questionnaires and cognitive assessments.
Phase 2 of the study is a double-blind clinical trial of this tincture in patients with anxiety. This double-blind trial will begin after the open-label trial has been completed. In the same manner as the open-label trial, participants will be pre-screened by phone, and approved participants will come to the hospital for a baseline/screening visit to complete a structured clinical interview, questionnaires, and cognitive assessments. Eligible participants will also have the option to complete an hour-long MRI scan at the baseline and final visits. Enrolled participants will receive either CBD tincture or placebo tincture to self-administer throughout the four week treatment period, as described above. Participants will return to the hospital weekly during the treatment period to complete questionnaires about their mood and quality of life. Participants in this phase of the study will also return for a final visit after four weeks of treatment to complete additional questionnaires, cognitive assessments, and an optional hour-long MRI scan.

Home : Resources : Oral History Collection : Saying Goodbye to Romana Raffetto and Elaine Young
Site Map/Search
(l) Romana Rafetto with her son, Andrew Raffetto. (r) GVSHP Executive Director Andrew Berman with Zack Winestine and Elaine Young of Save Gansevoort
Last week GVSHP and Greenwich Village lost two good friends and two wonderful women – Romana Raffetto and Elaine Young. Both were proud stalwarts of their community, and both will be greatly missed.
Romana Raffetto was the proprietor of the beloved Raffetto's at 144 West Houston Street, a culinary institution in Greenwich Village since 1906. Romana supported efforts to preserve the rich heritage of the South Village, of which her family was an integral part, and generously contributed an oral history to GVSHP's collection along with her son Andrew, in which they discussed Raffetto's history and Greenwich Village – read or listen to it here.
Elaine Young lived in the West Village for decades and was a true crusader for preserving and protecting her neighborhood. She was a member of GVSHP's Save Gansevoort Market Task Force, which spearheaded the successful drive for landmark status for the Meatpacking District in the early 2000s, and co-formed the community group 'Save Gansevoort' to fight a planned oversized development on Gansevoort Street. In 2016 Elaine and Save Gansevoort co-founder Zack Winestine were co-recipients of a GVSHP Village Award for their work – see the video of the award here (starts at 1:18:45). At Elaine's friends' and family's request, we have set up a special page for donations to GVSHP to be made in her memory, to continue her work to fight to preserve and protect the West Village and Meatpacking District – that can be found here.
Romana Raffetto and Elaine Young each in their own way contributed immeasurably to their communities and worked tirelessly to support them. Their loss will certainly be felt, but their contributions to their neighborhoods will long be remembered.

William Halliwell was born at 58 Dallas Street in Preston on the 19th May 1894 the son of George and Elizabeth Halliwell (nee Baron). William`s parents married in the church of St. John the Baptist in Broughton near Preston on the 9th June 1880.
William had eleven siblings, eight of whom survived; Mary Ellen (1880), Joseph Edward (1881), Elizabeth (1882-1882), Alice Jane (1883), Nicholas Baron (1885-1886), Edith Ann (1998-1905), Elizabeth (1889), Margaret (1891), Florence (1897), Robert (1900) and Harold (1905).
After William`s parents married they moved into 48 Adelphi Street in Preston where his father George was a butcher and cattle dealer. By 1891 the family had moved to 58 Dallas Street which is where they would remain for many years. By 1901 George Halliwell seems to have had a complete change of occupation and was no longer a butcher but was now working as a `jobbing gardener`.
Twenty years on when the 1911 Census was recorded William and his family were still resident at 58 Dallas Street. Three of William`s eldest siblings had married by now and his sister Edith had passed away and so the family now consisted of; Williams parents, his elder sisters Elizabeth and Margaret, both cotton weavers and his two youngest brothers, Robert and Harold. Sixteen year old William was employed as an apprentice French polisher at Fisher`s in Kent Street. Also in the household was one of his married sisters` Alice Pilkington and her two children, Harry 5 and Mary aged 3 and there was also another child, 2 year old Joseph Wilson Halliwell.
William`s exact date of enlistment is unknown because unfortunately his service papers are not available. However, we do know that he joined the Loyal North Lancashire Regiment and was issued with the service number 13460. In April of 1915 the 10th Battalion was transferred to the 112th Brigade in 37th Division and then on the 31st July 1915 William sailed for France with the initial deployment of the 10th (Service) Battalion LNL.
During the course of the war William attained the rank of Corporal, remaining with the 10th Battalion throughout. The 10th Battalion were involved in the following battles; First Ypres, Ancre, Somme 1916, Arras, Scarpe 1917, Arleux, Menin Road, Polygon Wood, Poelcappelle and Passchendaele.
It was after the Battalion`s involvement during the Battle of Arras in April 1917 that William was awarded the Military Medal. The Battle began on the 9th April but the 10th Battalion had remained in support for two days before finally joining the attack on the 11th. After two days of fighting the Battalion losses were heavy with 13 Officers and 286 other ranks, killed, wounded or missing. They were then withdrawn for a period of rest before returning to the front line on the 23rd April near St. Nicholas, south of Arras.
Extract from the Battalion War Diary
27th April 1917 – Received orders to attack Greenland Hill at dawn next day. Made all necessary arrangements and decided that the Battalion should `go over` in two waves.
28th April 1917 – 4.25am. Barrage opened, Battalion already in position for the attack. Battalion advanced and reached a point where the enemy had commenced to dig a trench, and during this movement the losses had been heavy and only 1 Officer – 2nd Lieut. Jones – was left. We at once began to improve the newly dug trench under enfilade fire from the direction of the Chemical Works on the right, and in this trench and adjacent shell holes what remained of the Battalion hung on until the early hours of the 29th (when it was relieved and withdrawn to St. Nicholas).
During the operations of April 1917 the Battalion had 21 Officers and 478 other ranks killed, wounded or missing.
An entry in the 10th Battalion War Diary made on the 1st June 1917 records;
On the 21st February 1918 the 10th Battalion was officially disbanded and having been made up to a strength of 1,100 men they then became the 15th Entrenching Battalion of the Fifth Army. Strict guidelines had been laid down as to the use of the Entrenching Battalions stating that they should only be used in defence work, not be used in forward areas and should not be attached to `fighting units`. However this directive was short-lived when most of the Entrenching Battalions became involved in helping to stem the tide during the German Spring Offensive in March 1918.
On the first day of the German Spring Offensive, Operation Michael (21st March 1918) the 15th Entrenching Battalion was involved in the defence of the TERGNIER to QUESSY line. It was on the following day that Corporal William Halliwell `for an act of conspicuous gallantry and initiative` was nominated for the award of a Distinguished Conduct Medal.
The citation reading;
13460 Cpl. W. Halliwell, M.M.,
L.N. Lanc. R. (Preston) (LG 3 Sept. 1918).
For conspicuous gallantry and devotion in action. When the enemy were attempting to turn the flank of a company, he, on his own initiative,
collected a party of stragglers of all units, and, dashing forward, held up the attack for a considerable time remaining until one man and himself
were left alone. He then joined another party and continued to fight on.
William`s parents notified the local paper the Preston Guardian and they published the following article and photograph.
The following month on the 9th April 1918 ten Officers and 120 other ranks including William left the 15th Entrenching Battalion and transferred to the 9th Battalion of the East Surrey Regiment. After joining the East Surrey`s William was allocated a new service number of 28795.
A war diary entry for the 9/E. Surrey Regt. dated 31st May 1918 records;
Later in the year in the October of 1918 William managed to secure some home leave and on the 23rd October 1918 the Lancashire Daily Post announced that on the following day (24th) he would be presented with both his Military Medal and Distinguished Conduct Medal by the Mayor of Preston, Alderman Cartmell.
Tomorrow morning, at 10.30, the Mayor of Preston (Alderman Cartmell) will present the D.C.M. and M.M. awarded to Corporal W. Halliwell, L.N.L. Regt. of 58 Dallas Street, Preston. These public presentations are usually made on Saturdays, but in this case, Corporal Halliwell`s leave expires on Friday.
The presentation of awards in Preston would usually take place on the steps of the Town Hall, conducted by the Mayor and in the presence of family and members of the general public. The Mayor would make a speech and would then read out the award citations and the ceremony normally concluded with `three cheers` and applause.
William went back to the front, he survived the war and was finally discharged to Class Z on the 21st February 1919. After the war he was awarded the 1915 Star, British War and Victory Medals to go with his Military Medal and Distinguished Conduct Medal.
In the June quarter of 1934 William married local girl Mary Winifred Dwyer in Preston and the couple went on to have three children. On the 29th September 1939 when the National Registration of the entire population was taken, William and Mary and their family were still living at 58 Dallas Street in Preston. William`s occupation was still a French Polisher by trade, however, at the time he declared that he was `temporarily disabled – road accident`.
Lancashire Evening Post reporting 15th June 1939;
"William Halliwell (45) of Dallas Street, Preston was admitted to Preston Royal Infirmary this afternoon suffering from a compound fracture of the right leg and head injuries due to being knocked down by a car while crossing Garstang Road from Ripon Street to Moor Park".
William eventually recovered from his injuries and presumably returned to his work as a French Polisher. He passed away at Sharoe Green Hospital in 1973 at the age of 79.

Janet Davis has been researching her family history for many years and through this she discovered many relatives who served in WW1. This interest then led Janet to do many walking the battlefield tours with her husband. In April 2013 she discovered this website and volunteered to help. Janet believes that there are lots of stories still to be told, most of them very sad but at the same time they are a fascinating insight into the men, their families, what they did and where they came from.
