Sunglasses or sun glasses are a form of protecting eyewear designed mainly to prevent bright sunlight and high-energy visible light from injuring or discomforting the eyes. They can sometimes also function as a visual assistance, as variously termed spectacles or glasses exist, featuring lenses that are colored, polarized or darkened. Many people find direct sunlight too bright for comfort during outdoor events. Healthcare professionals recommend eye protection whenever the sun comes out to protect the eyes from ultraviolet radiation (UV) and blue light, which can cause several serious eye problems. Since the 1940s sunglasses have been popular as a fashion accessory, especially on the beach.Sunglasses offer protection against too muchcontact to light, including its visible and invisible constituents.

Asia will witness 21st century's longest eclipse
Map shows the path of the upcoming solar eclipse and the areas of AP – Map shows the path of the upcoming solar eclipse and the areas of visibility

BANGKOK – A swath starting in India and crossing Shanghai to southern Japan will be plunged into darkness for about five minutes Wednesday in the longest total solar eclipse that will happen this century.
Japan, which hasn't seen a total eclipse for 46 years, is celebrating with fireworks. An astrologer in Myanmar has warned the eclipse is a sign of impending chaos. In India, some pregnant women have been told to stay indoors to follow a centuries-old tradition of avoiding the sun's invisible rays.
The eclipse will appear first at dawn in India's Gulf of Khambhat just north of the metropolis of Mumbai.
It will move east across India, Nepal, Myanmar, Bangladesh, Bhutan and China before hitting the Pacific. The eclipse will cross some southern Japanese islands and be last visible from land at Nikumaroro Island in the South Pacific nation of Kiribati. Elsewhere, a partial eclipse will be visible in much of Asia.
For astronomers, it will be a chance for a prolonged view of the sun's corona, a white ring 600,000 miles (1 million kilometers) from the sun's surface. The previous total eclipse, in August 2008, was two minutes and 27 seconds. This one will last 6 minutes and 39 seconds at its maximum point.
Solar scientist Lucie Green is aboard an American cruise ship heading for that point near the Japanese island of Iwo Jima, where the axis of the moon's shadow will pass closest to earth.
Passengers paid $ 2,599 to $ 3,643 for the cruise run by Mayhugh Travel Inc., a California company that specializes in astronomy vacations, according to the company's Web site.
"The corona has a temperature of 2 million degrees but we don't know why it is so hot," said Green of University College London. "What we are going to look for are waves in the corona. ... The waves might be producing the energy that heats the corona. That would mean we understand another piece of the science of the sun."
Scientists are hoping data from the eclipse will help explain solar flares and other structures of the sun and why they erupt, said Alphonse C. Sterling, a NASA astrophysicist who will be following the eclipse in China.
Man has been recording solar eclipses for 4,000 years, and even today they inspire a combination of fear, fascination and wonder.
One astrologer in Myanmar, also known as Burma, predicted in a magazine that the eclipse would trigger wars, instability and natural disasters for the next several months.
In India, hundreds of scientists have started arriving in the village of Taregna in Bihar state, where they hope to avoid
Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius & in Semi-square to Pluto and Uranus & Sun in Leo

Lunar Eclipse in Aquarius & in Semi-square to Pluto and Uranus & Sun in Leo
Lunar Eclipses are most Powerful Full MoonsI have commented in my article about the Capricorn Full Moon Lunar Eclipse, July 6, 2009 about the importance to look at the opposing astrological signs as the complementing force to the planetary position. Especially with a Lunar Eclipse which is a Full Moon, created by the opposition between the Sun and the Moon, it is crucial to look into the particularities of both signs forming the axes.Sun and Moon are the yin and yang, the male and the female force, the complementing forces in life. Sun as the life giving entity is radiating the force to create life and Moon is reflecting the energy, taking it into the inner world, sustaining and nourishing life.Sun in astrology show us our self- identity, the inner place of strength we act from in our life. Sun is representing the inner and outer male figure. Sun is our self awareness and consciousness guiding us into choices and decisions. With the Sun moving through the whole zodiac throughout the year it gives us different mental perspectives onto life and guides our process of evolution as an individual and as whole humankind.Moon in astrology on the other hand reflects consciousness evolving through our inner digestive process of our feelings and guides us more intuitively. Emotions are often unclear and hidden from the light of consciousness and might take a while to float up to conscious recognition and acknowledgment. Moon is the archetypal mother, the inner woman or outer woman, nourishing us in her unique way of being.A Lunar EclipseA Lunar Eclipse is created by the earth's position between Sun and Moon, intercepting the Sun's light meeting the Moon. For a short duration there is the interruption of Sun's radiation towards the Moon. Some astrologer read that as the opening into a hyperspace portal into a non physical dimension. I don't know about that but I always like to keep an open mind.What we can say for sure is that this is a moment of interruption of the familiar flow of consciousness and with that we have a chance of waking up from our normal, very patterned and habituated flow of thoughts, feelings and self-expression.I do believe a Lunar Eclipse stirs things up from our deeply unconscious mind because of that interruption in the habitualness. With looking at the shadow side of both astrological signs the Sun and Moon are in, we will be able to gain much clarity and guidance to make the best out of this particular universal time.The Last Lunar Eclipse 1990 in AquariusNineteen years ago we had another eclipse in almost the same degree at 13 degree, 47 minutes in Aquarius/ Leo. I don't know about you, but I don't remember much about that time or what was important to me then. If you do, you might have an inkling to the impact of this eclipse for you.This Lunar Eclipse
