'Wrong kind of sun' delays trains
Trains approaching Bath Spa station have been slowed down by the mad March heat.
In a move already dubbed 'the wrong kind of sun' by some commuters, Network Rail has imposed speed restrictions on stretches of line in the west.
Operator First Great Western says the worst affected area has been between Filton Abbey Wood and Stapleton Road in Bristol, but there have also been delays in Wiltshire and in Bath itself.
The curbs – called heat speeds – have been implemented because of the effect of the spring heatwave on the tracks.

/Glasses
Glasses, also known as eyeglasses or spectacles, are devices consisting of lenses mounted in a frame that holds them in front of a person's eyes. Glasses are typically used for vision correction. Safety glasses provide eye protection against flying debris or against visible and near-visible light or radiation. Sunglasses allow better vision in bright daylight, and may protect one's eyes against damage from high levels of ultraviolet light. Specialized glasses may be used for viewing specific visual information (such as stereoscopy). Sometimes glasses are worn simply for aesthetic or fashion purposes. The number of Americans who are nearsighted has doubled since the 1970s and almost 3/4 of the US population wears glasses. People are more likely to need glasses the older they get with 93% of people between the age of 65-75 wearing corrective lenses-wiki link-https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasses-i have worn glasses since the middle eighties for reading,long sight and i remember being abit aware of people taking the mike out of me but soon pasted ,now have 2 pairs one is just for reading and doing computer the others are tinted due sightly sensitive to light.

T-rex was an old romantic at heart! Scrape marks show fearsome theropods built 'love nests' and took part in 'prehistoric foreplay' 100 million years ago
You may think of dinosaurs as cruel, terrifying creatures with slashing claws and ferocious jaws.
But new research reveals these beasts had a much softer side.
Palaeontologists have found evidence that dinosaurs used tender courtship displays and 'prehistoric foreplay' similar to some modern ground-nesting birds.
This included males preparing nests to persuade potential suitors they would make a helpful father. READ MORE -http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3388651/T-rex-old-romantic-heart-Scrape-marks-fearsome-theropods-built-love-nests-took-prehistoric-foreplay-100-million-years-ago.html

Information About Prosopagnosia
What is prosopagnosia?
Prosopagnosia (also known as 'face blindness') refers to a severe deficit in recognizing familiar people from their face. While some people report a very selective impairment that only influences the recognition of faces, others find the deficit extends to the recognition of other stimuli, such as objects, cars, or animals. Many people also report deficits in other aspects of face processing, such as judging age or gender, recognising certain emotional expressions, or following the direction of a person's eye gaze. Finally, a substantial proportion of prosopagnosics report navigational difficulties.
How does prosopagnosia affect a person's life?
Some prosopagnosics cope well with the face recognition impairment, and develop elaborate compensatory mechanisms to help them function effectively in everyday life. For others, however, the condition has a much greater impact on daily functioning. Some prosopagnosics have reported avoidance of social interactions, problems with interpersonal relationships, damage to career, and even depression. In extreme cases, prosopagnosics may develop social anxiety disorder, characterized by fear and avoidance of social situations that may cause embarrassment.READ MORE -http://www.prosopagnosiaresearch.org/index/information
