But many of them could discover that their insurance doesn't cover damage from that common hurricane effect. That's because of the little-known, misunderstood and obscure "anti-concurrent causation clause" written into their policy. "The vast majority of homeowner insurance policies have this exclusion," said Executive Director Amy Bach of United Policyholders, a San Francisco-based consumer insurance advocacy group. She predicts that it will "put policyholders in a fight with their insurers right from the get-go." Simply put, an anti-concurrent causation (ACC) clause states that if two events (like wind and water damage) occur close together and only one of them is covered, your insurer doesn't have to pay for either one. General Reinsurance provides a detailed explanation. "If two separate events occur, such as wind and flood, and cause damage within a short period of time, but only one is insured, then the order in which it occurred is irrelevant, and your insurer will not pay for either one," said Director Robert Hunter of the Consumer Federation of America. This is true even if the wind damage is $100,000 and the flood loss is only $5,000, added Hunter, the former insurance commissioner of Texas who has been through several flood events." - cbsnews & Director Robert Hunter of the Consumer Federation of America.

Macular degeneration is the death of photoreceptor cells in the eye.Aug 15, 2018 According to the research conducted by the University of Toledo, Blue light is naturally present in sunlight, but with the growing ubiquity of electronic devices — and the light glaring from their screens — one’s exposure to blue light can become harmful. According to the National Sleep Foundation, blue light suppresses the body’s production of melatonin, which regulates your sleep cycle. This can make it difficult to fall asleep, on top of the newly discovered threat of eye damage. In other experiments, the researchers found that the combination of blue light and retinal molecules can lead to the death of any type of cell, including cancer cells, heart cells, and neurons. They noted that a certain molecule natural to the body, alpha tocopherol, can stop these cells from dying. But as individuals age or their body weakens, the defense is hindered." - Fortune, University of Toledo News & Kasun Ratnayake https://www.google.com/search?q=blue+light+and+sunglasses&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-1 Blue Light sunrays (HEV) may cause 30% of Macula Degeneration - https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-combine-pdf-files/ How to combine PDF files (Windows and MAC) - https://www.digitaltrends.com/home-theater/please-dont-mount-your-tv-over-the-fireplace/ Why you shouldn’t mount your TV above your fireplace - SO VERY OBVIOUS, AND YET, PEOPLE DO IT http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=30673 The Beauty of Cape Town Is Highly Apparent In This Video - 4K video - Modern Cape Town can trace its roots back to the mid-17th century when Dutch traders set up a way-station for their ship https://www.digitaltrends.com/cool-tech/engineered-sand-water-suply/ Engineered sand could remove nasty toxins to produce drinkable water http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=15879 Fly Above Cape Town and Catch Some Stunning Views! - http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=5837 Rio is a Paradise On Earth: A Look at a Magical City - https://www.digitaltrends.com/home/optinid-tiny-house-france/ This tiny house produced in the Alps opens up to the skies - http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=24534 The Road to Machu Picchu Makes it Even More Breathtaking - http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=28914 Take a Virtual Walking Tour Through the Streets of Venice - 1 HOUR TOUR - http://www.ba-bamail.com/video.aspx?emailid=30524 Australia Looks Even More Impressive When Seen From Above! - Gathered 09/07/2018: https://www.digitaltrends.com/cars/ford-recall-2-million-f-150-trucks-citing-fire-risk/ Ford recalls 2 million of its popular F-150 trucks due to fire risk - https://www.digitaltrends.com/business/nissan-recall-key-ignition-switch-issue/ Nissan recalls a range of vehicles to fix potentially dangerous ignition issue - https://www.tomsguide.com/us/iphone-xs-iphone-9-preview,review-5726.html Skip? the New iPhones If They Don't Have These 5 Upgrades - https://insights.globalspec.com/article/9696/new-wind-measurement-satellite-promises-to-improve-weather-forecast-accuracy?id=%2D1527517306&uh=2a9fa3&email=DRW2003%40nc%2Err%2Ecom&md=180904&mh=370a72&Vol=Vol18Issue36&Pub=1&LinkId=1945211&keyword=link%5F1945211&itemid=330593&et_rid=419503628&et_mid=83716928&frmtrk=newsletter&cid=nl New Wind Measurement Satellite Promises to Improve Weather Forecast Accuracy - https://www.theverge.com/2018/9/6/17829414/american-airlines-flights-emirates-sick-passengers-airplane-phl-jfk-airpots CDC investigates two more flights that landed with coughing passengers - https://www.washingtonpost.com/transportation/2018/09/06/officials-unveil-new-facial-recognition-system-dulles-international-airport/?utm_term=.1635abb39b51 Officials unveil new facial recognition system at Dulles International Airport - Gathered 09/06/2018: https://www.statnews.com/2018/09/06/with-big-name-backing-a-startup-launches-to-match-cancer-patients-with-clinical-trials/ With big-name backing, a startup launches to match cancer patients with clinical trials - https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-09-05/mercedes-brings-hands-free-driving-to-its-40-ton-highway-hauler?srnd=hyperdrive Mercedes Brings Hands-Free Driving to Its 40-Ton Highway Hauler - UGH!! - 4O TONS IMAX is launching its own AV certification program for home theater setups - theverge Rita Ora is seriously trying to make see-through dresses happen as she gets transparent at GQ afterparty - metro Kate Beckinsale pulls off a very daring swimsuit-style sarong dress at GQ Men of the Year Awards and proves summer isn’t over yet - metro iRobot’s latest Roomba remembers your home’s layout and empties itself - theverge ‘Waterworld’ no longer seems sci-fi, so an artist designed your future gills - digitaltrends Gathered 09/05/2018: Say what!?
