Have you ever experienced the "Old Hag Syndrome"? | sleep paralysis is a throwback from our hunter/gatherer days, caveman days, a long time ago. Back when we where not on top of the food chain and we were not the most powerful preditors. It is a defense mechanism that kept us safe at night. If we were asleep and moved, that would alert preditors out to get us. So our nervous system prevents the body from involuntarily moving while we are most vulnerable, while we are in a deep sleep. It is not supposed to continue when we are conscious but it does happen. If it happens while we are having a bad dream it seems logical to associate the feelings of terror and fear with evil but it is in our minds. |

A young couple who found themselves longing for a simpler life decided to take the matter of their marital abode in their own hands - quite literally.

Malissa, a 3D artist, and Christopher, a graphic designer and photographer, stumbled upon the 'tiny homes' movement online and knew it held the key to their perfect home. Despite having little to no knowledge of how to build a house - or anything at all for that matter - they spent 800 hours over seven months to build their own home and everything within it. Thanks to Malissa’s skills as a 3D artist the pair were able to designed it themselves and make a virtual version of their future home, ahead of grabbing hammer and drill. ‘We just had some basic shop class skills from High School’, Malissa Tack explains on their website. Simple is good: Chris and Malissa Tack traded in the busy life for what they think is the good one - as small as it may seem .

Mary Smith was attacked by gang of boys while walking two dogs .
They tried to drag her from her scooter and rummage in her bags .
She then grabbed the dogs and drove straight at the children on scooter .
Mrs Smith, who is partially deaf and blind, then managed to escape . | Mary Smith, 100, managed to fight off a gang of children who attacked her in a park before escaping on her high-speed mobility scooter . A 100-year-old great-grandmother managed to fight off a gang of children who attacked her in a park before escaping on her high-speed mobility scooter. Mary Smith, who is partially deaf and blind, was taking her dog and a neighbour's for a walk in Rugby, Warwickshire, when she was attacked by the group of three or four boys. As the children, who were aged around ten, tried to drag her from her scooter and rifle through her bags, Mrs Smith grabbed her dog Xena and the other pet and drove straight at the gang, forcing them to scatter. The former Second World War dispatch rider then escaped on her high-speed scooter. Her daughter Rita Doggrell, 77, who also lives in Rugby, said her mother did not understand what was happening when she was set on by the boys. 'I can’t quite believe the lack of respect these boys showed to a woman of mum’s age,' she said. 'She had just started to go around the path and was taking her own dog and the neighbour’s dog for a walk when they just set upon her. 'Mum suffers quite badly with blindness and loss of hearing and can only really make out shapes so she couldn’t tell what was happening to begin with. 'She knows that a group of three or four young boys approached her and started trying to get her out of her mobility scooter. One of them even got onto it at one point.' Mrs Doggrell said her mother, who she described as inspirational for her age, was remarkably unshaken by the ordeal. 'Unfortunately nobody else was around to help,' she said. 'But thankfully she was able to fight them off, grab the dogs and get away from them. 'She is incredibly strong and very good for age so she just took it in her stride. Smith, who is partially deaf and blind, was taking her dog and a neighbour's for a walk in this park in Rugby, Warwickshire, when she was attacked by the boys, thought to be from a nearby illegal traveller camp . 'But it is completely unacceptable something like this should happen.' Widow Mrs Smith became the oldest person in Europe to have a pioneering cochlea implant earlier this year. The mother-of-three, who also has six grandchildren, did not report the attack to police. |

Baroness Williams described former husband as 'brilliant' and 'wonderful'
She and Sir Bernard Williams divorced following his affair in 1971 .
The 84-year-old veteran politician said her career played a part in their split .
She also said the philosopher had been 'vulnerable' to 'hopeful ladies' | Baroness Williams has said the downfall of her marriage, prompted by her husband's affair, was that he was 'vulnerable' to 'hopeful women' Her first husband cheated on her then deserted her. But far from feeling bitter, as many women would, Shirley Williams insists she was partly at fault. The veteran politician also blames the split on women who ‘pinioned’ Bernard Williams, saying the philosophy professor succumbed to their charms because he was too ‘vulnerable’ to resist. Baroness Williams says her burgeoning career – she was a Labour shadow minister at the time – played a part in the collapse of the marriage and urges other women whose husbands leave them to look at themselves with a critical eye. She rejected 12 proposals before marrying Sir Bernard, once described as the most brilliant and most important British moral philosopher of his time, in 1955. They had a daughter in 1961 but ten years later he left her for Patricia Skinner, the young wife of a fellow academic. She is said to have offered to sacrifice her career as a rising political star if he stayed but to no avail and their divorce was finalised in 1974. ‘He [Bernard] was a wonderful man, a brilliant man but he was always a bit… vulnerable, put it that way,’ said Baroness Williams, now 84, yesterday. ‘And of course because he was rather good-looking as well as frighteningly clever, he was pinioned by quite a number of – I have to say – hopeful ladies.’ The Roman Catholic added: ‘I’d been brought up with the view that if you were going to get married, then you had to be faithful – and you only got divorced in the most extreme circumstances.’ Her mother, the feminist author Vera Brittain, initially applauded her decision to marry Williams, telling her: ‘Of all the men you might have married, Bernard obviously has far and away the best mind, and he is also the only one who is capable of putting you before himself.’ Baroness Williams was happy in her second marriage to Harvard historian Richard Neustadt, who died in 2003 – the same year as Sir Bernard. But reflecting on what went wrong the first time, more than 40 years ago, she told the Radio Times she had stopped herself being consumed by anger by asking herself: ‘If your spouse indicates that they feel the time has come to break up, what did I contribute to that?’ She said: ‘You’ve got to understand how it is that he – who you loved – decided to leave you. And if you don’t begin to understand what you have contributed to it, your life will be destroyed by a sense of vengeance, anger, fury, injustice – and, you know, that’s not the way to go. Sir Bernard Williams left his politician wife for Patricia Skinner (pictured above, left following his divorce from Baroness Williams) ‘You’ve got to come to terms with that single question – what did I contribute to this? And only when you have the answer to that can you actually then seriously think about why you broke up. ‘You mustn’t kid yourself that you’re the one who’s been badly treated – you just have to understand how it happened.’ Many regarded Baroness Williams as the woman likely to become Britain's first female prime minister . A former journalist before entering Parliament in 1964, Baroness Williams rose via the Shadow Cabinet in the early 1970s to become Secretary of State for Education and Paymaster General – holding both positions at the same time – as the only woman in James Callaghan’s 1976 Cabinet. Many at the time regarded her, not Margaret Thatcher, as the politician most likely to become Britain’s first woman prime minister. After losing her seat in 1979, Baroness Williams left the Labour Party in 1981 as one of the ‘Gang of Four’ who founded the Social Democratic Party, before becoming a Liberal Democrat peer in 1993. Asked if she encountered sexism in Parliament, or was patronised, she replied: ‘It was more subtle than that. 'It was much more being treated as though you weren’t worth listening to. ‘That was one of the real problems but, to be fair, people like, not just Margaret Thatcher, the usual example but Barbara Castle even earlier, were quite substantial figures and they stood up for what they believed in and argued the case. 'They did not fit into the agreeable, supportive woman concept. It’s about being taken seriously and not being treated as an ancillary figure.’ Meanwhile, a film version of Baroness Williams’ mother’s 1933 book, Testament of Youth, opens this week. Miss Brittain, a pacifist and feminist, was inspired to write it by the deaths of her fiancé, brother and two closest male friends during the First World War. It was adapted for TV in 1979. |

Trucks spraying saline solution to clear the air of fine dust particles from traffic exhausts .
The sticky salt solution makes dust particles stick to the road rather than hover in the air .
Clean Air in London warns the tactic is putting public health at risk by masking true extent of pollution . | By . Damien Gayle . PUBLISHED: . 07:21 EST, 2 April 2012 . | . UPDATED: . 10:57 EST, 2 April 2012 . Under fire: Mayor Boris Johnson has been accused of 'public health fraud' over his use of dust suppresants . Boris Johnson has been accused of 'public health fraud' for ordering the use of dust suppressants to cut readings at pollution monitoring stations in London. The London Mayor could be avoiding hundreds of millions in EU fines by ordering the use of sprays to cut the amount of dust in the air near pollution monitoring stations. But the tactic could also be putting the public at risk by masking the true extent of pollution levels in the city and preventing smog warnings when pollution is severe. Simon Birkett, director of Clean Air in London told MailOnline: 'This is deadly serious. We’re talking about dangerous particles, some of which are toxic or carcinogenic, not inert house dust. 'It’s public health fraud on an industrial scale to use pollution suppressants in front of the air quality monitors most relied on to warn the public of smog episodes and report legal breaches. 'The Mayor needs to reduce pollution at source not hide it from monitors.' The tactic was revealed in a report by the Mayor's office recocomending the use of the sticky salt spray along busy streets, particularly during the Olympic Games. Saline solution sprayed by trucks usually used for salting roads in winter makes fine dust particles stick to the ground rather than hover in the air. Pollution hot-spots like Upper Thames Street, Marylebone Road and Neasden Lane are among the 15 sites were the so-called 'dust suppressants' are alreay being used. All of the sites are close to official air quality monitoring stations which measure the level of pollution in the city, Mr Birkett pointed out. He said Upper Thames Street, in the . City. was the first to record a breach in air quality levels, while . Marylebone Road, in Westminster, is the location of the government's own . pollution monitoring station. Pollution levels are measured in tiny particles of soot and dirt from traffic emissions. When inhaled, the particulate matter, known as PM10s, can cause heart and lung problems. The daily limit of PM10 in the UK must not be higher than 50 micrograms per metre squared more than 35 times in a calendar year to meet European Commission targets.

Even with the use of dust . suppressants, on Neasden Lane this level has already been exceeded 32 . times since the beginning of 2012, while in Upper Thames Street it has . been exceeded 28 times, Clean Air in London claims. On Marylebone Road the level has been breached 25 times, according to figures provided by the campaign group. If . and when the EC quota is breached the UK could find itself facing the . European Court of Justice, which enforces European law. The country . faces a fine of £300million if it fails to clean up its act. The . Department for the Environment issued its first summer smog alert the . weekend before last after high ozone levels were recorded. This kind of . pollution, the most dangerous for athletes, occurs when sunlight reacts . with pollutants. Mr Birkett said: 'Marylebone Road and Upper Thames Street are at the absolute heart of the Olympic road network. 'TFL's plan for dealing with pollution during the Olympics is to use the suppressor truck. Unbelievable.' The Mayor's own pollution strategy recommends the use of the suppressants to achieve 'compliance' with European standards. The document reads: 'There are other days where a location only just exceeds the EU limit value. 'In . these circumstances a reduction in local emissions or concentrations . (for example, by preventing re-suspension) will help achieve . compliance.' Heart of the City: The daily limit of PM10 pollution on Upper Thames Street has been exceeded 28 times so far this year . Dirty: The limit has been breached in Neasden Lane 32 times . West End: And in Westminster's Marylebone Road the limit has been exceeded 25 times. Clean Air in London believes this picture shows residue from saline spray . Mr Johnson's office has said the suppressants are part of a short term strategy to cut pollution alongside long term measures to improve air quality like bringing in more low emission zones and planting more trees. His office told the Daily Telegraph that having monitors at the busiest traffic spots made sense as it forces the UK to clean up its dirtiest air, and that these were also the most important areas to use dust suppressants. But Mr Birkett claimed the suppressants were simply being used to avoid taking firm action on pollution. 'What this is about is that actually we need to be focusing on the solutions,' he said. 'This is mainly a diesel problem and we need to be focusing on diesel emissions. 'Our low emission zone is two years and two steps behind the one in Berlin and that's the real test of whether we are getting to grips with pollution levels.' |
