UP, UP AND AWAY
It’s your turn to fly high in a hot air balloon ride
By Alison Elsner For DMHN It all started in 1783 in Paris, France with the first untethered, manned balloon ride. The romance of the hot air balloon was officially introduced, propelling it through centuries of
culture with depictions such as Jules Verne’s 1863 breakout novel, Five Weeks in a Balloon, the 1956 film “Around the World in 80 Days” and the 1967 hit song by Jimmy Webb, “Up, Up and Away.” Modern hot air balloons were developed in the 1950s with the first
successful flight on October 22, 1960. On November 26, 2005, Vijaypat Singhania set the world altitude record for highest hot air balloon flight, reaching 68,986 feet in India. However, passenger and commercial balloon flights stay within a 1,000 – 3,000 foot altitude for safety and pressurization
reasons. A hot air balloon for manned flight uses an inflatable fabric bag (called an envelope), with an opening at the bottom called the mouth. The envelope attaches to a gondola usually made of rattan, wicker or aluminum for carrying passengers. Mounted above the Continues on page 6 >>

Social Security Matters: “Ask Rusty” - Can I re-marry, or not? record and I’ve been told that if I remarry I’ll lose those benefits. But I’ve also been told that I can remarry if I’m over 60 years old. My new guy is not collecting Social Security yet, although he is old enough to start if he chooses. So please help me. Can I remarry, or not? Signed: Bride in waiting
Social Security Matters by AMAC Certified Social Security Advisor Russell Gloor, Association of Mature American Citizens Dear Rusty: After a pretty difficult 32 years of marriage and ugly divorce a few years ago, I finally found the man of my dreams. We’d like to get married, but I’m collecting spousal benefits from my ex’s Social Security
May 25, 2017
Dear Bride: This is one of those things that always seems to cause confusion for those who are divorced, collecting Social Security and thinking about a second marriage. Let’s start with some basics: The rules say that as an ex-wife you are entitled to spousal benefits if you are at least 62 years old, are not currently married, and were married to your ex for at least 10 years (and divorced for at least 2 if your ex is not yet collecting benefits). The benefit you are entitled to is ½ of your ex’s primary insurance amount (or “PIA”, the amount he is entitled to at his full retirement age). This, of course, would need to be higher than any benefit you would get on your own work record. That means that if you remarry now, regardless of your age, you will indeed lose your spousal benefit based upon
your ex-husband’s record. Since you say your new guy is not yet collecting Social Security, what is most important for you is whether he plans to apply soon, and how much your spousal benefit would be on your new husband’s record. This amount is easy to obtain if your new beau sets up an account at www.ssa.gov and gets his current benefit estimate, which would include what he’s entitled to at his full retirement age (his “PIA”). Once he starts collecting benefits, as his spouse you would be entitled to ½ of his PIA. You can compare the benefit you now get on your ex-husband’s record with what you would get from your new husband’s record if he were collecting. With this knowledge, you and he can make an informed decision about whether getting married at this time is financially prudent. Where the confusion usually stems from on remarrying after reaching 60 years of age is because that is the rule for ex-spouse survivor’s benefits, not benefits from a living ex-spouse. Divorced widows can remarry after age 60 and still collect benefits on their deceased ex-husband’s record
www.desertmobilehomenews.com
(said benefit being 100% of whatever benefit the deceased ex was collecting or entitled to collect at death). My wish for you and the new “man of your dreams” is that you spend the rest of your lives enjoying a loving and caring relationship, hopefully with wedding bells sometime in the near future.

Pet of the Week “Pet Rescue”
Hard2 - Chihuahua, Baby, Male Hi, everyone. My name is Hard2 and I’m a male Chihuahua who’s about 9 months to a year old. My coat is fawn and white which makes my black snout stand out in an adorable way. I’m a little guy who weighs less than 10 pounds and I keep hearing how cute I am. You might be wondering how I came to receive such an unusual name–it was because I was ‘hard to catch’ when I was abandoned by my former owner. I was dumped around the area of the Pet Rescue Center when a very kind person
saw me all alone. He tried to catch me, but I kept running away. I kept going in and out of the bushes on a hightraffic street. I could have experienced a fate worse than being abandoned if that kind person didn’t try so hard. Finally, I was enticed out of the bushes by pieces of hot dog gotten from Pet Rescue. That did the trick and I am so happy it did! I feel very happy and safe now. I’ve made many new friends and I am picked up and cuddled quite a lot. I really like that! Won’t you please come and visit me? I’m a sweet boy and I’m young enough to be trained to be the best boy for you. I’m neutered, up-to-date with vaccinations, and microchipped. - xoxo Your Hearty Hard2

UP, UP AND AWAY It’s your turn to fly high in a hot air balloon ride << Continues from page 1 basket is the burner, which injects a flame into the envelope, heating the inside air. The burner is fueled by propane, a liquefied gas stored in pressure vessels. The balloon is usually in the shape of an inverted tear drop or variations thereof, to minimize stress upon the fabric once it’s inflated. The envelope itself usually weighs approximately 250 pounds. The force that causes the balloon to lift into the air depends upon the differential between the temperature of the air inside and outside the envelope; the maximum internal temperature is limited to approximately 250 degrees. The difference between inside and outside air must be at least 140 degrees, which is why summer flights are conducted in early morning hours when the outside air is cooler. Generally, hot air balloons only fly in the Coachella Valley between September and April, since the extreme hot weather can make adequate lift, not to mention comfort, difficult to achieve.
6
Most balloon operators fly year-round in Temecula and San Diego, both of which are popular locations for private rides as well as festivals such as the upcoming Temecula Valley Balloon and Wine Festival on June 2-4, 2017, a spectacular regional celebration of color, adventure and vino (more information: www.tvbwf.com). In the United States, a hot air balloon pilot who is carrying passengers must have a FAA commercial pilot license. A skilled pilot will only allow balloons to ascend if wind speeds are stable and minimal. So, maybe it’s time for you to schedule your own balloon flight or plan a surprise gift of love and excitement! Here’s what to expect: 1. Whether you arrive at your point of take-off or catch a ride in the “chase” vehicle, the envelope will take 30 minutes to inflate. You can expect to be up in the air for around 45 minutes to an hour. The entire experience will take around three hours by the time
you are driven back to your point of origin upon landing. 2. The gondola normally carries between two to sixteen people, so when booking your flight just make sure to find out what the company offers and schedule your preference. 3. Speaking of landing, most pilots try to perform them as smoothly as possible, but it can be tricky if air at ground level is more than 5 mph. Upon ground contact, the basket sans wheels may drag for a bit or feel like it’s going to tip over. After landing, the envelope is deflated, detached from the basket, folded into its carrying bag and packed into the retrieve vehicle. It’s traditional for balloon riders to toast with champagne or mimosas and enjoy a light breakfast or hors d’oeuvres following the flight, and most companies will include these amenities with your ride. The cost? The fee can be around $275 per person, however there are dozens of internet specials as well as Groupon
www.desertmobilehomenews.com
and LivingSocial deals where you can easily book a ride for $107 - $159 per person as well as better rates for group rides. Many say it’s the experience of a lifetime, and what a perfect way to celebrate an engagement, graduation, anniversary or just a well-deserved view of the panorama below. As the balloonists say, “Soft winds and gentle landings.” To schedule your flight, contact: • Palm Desert Hot Air Balloon Rides at www.balloonridepalmspringsca.com or 1-888-445-8798 • Magical Adventure Hot Air Rides at www.hotairfun.com, 619-865-1187 or 1-866-ENJOY US • Panorama Balloon Tours at www.gohotair.com or 760-271-3467 • HavNFun Hot Air Ballooning at www.flyhotairballoons.com (Tom and Kelli Keller), for information on festivals and events

Home remedies for toothache Toothaches can vary greatly, from mild soreness to an unbearable throbbing pain in your teeth or around your jaws. Some of the main causes of toothaches are cavities, an infection, an exposed tooth root, a cracked tooth, gum disease, a loose filling, or jaw joint disorder. A toothache happens when the central region of the tooth, known as the pulp, becomes irritated or inflamed. The pulp consists of several nerve endings that are highly sensitive. Pulp can become inflamed or irritated for many reasons, some of which are noted above. If you have toothache, it is best to seek immediate advice from a dentist before the problem worsens. You can also try some natural remedies to relieve the pain temporarily. Here are the top 6 home remedies for toothaches that will relieve the pain: • Pepper and Salt: Salt mixed with pepper can be of great use when a tooth be-

he White sisters, Dr. Florilla White and Miss Cornelia White, along with a third sister, Isabel, came to Palm Springs from New York. Florilla and Cornelia were explorers who loved the desert and never wore dresses. Isabel was more proper in her attire. They purchased Welwood Murray’s Palm Springs Hotel and continued to rent out rooms with much of their business coming from the overflow of the Desert Inn. They arrived when there were only 15 non-Indian residents in the village and proceeded to buy the entire block of 100 North Palm Canyon Drive and part of South Palm Canyon Drive. Florilla White, a medical doctor, was a dedicated horsewoman and a member of the Desert Riders. Cornelia was also an avid horsewoman. Today, Cornelia’s little house is part of the Palm Springs Historical Society on South Palm Canyon Drive.

Stars and Streets of the Desert JACK BENNY
STAR: 1894-1974 STREET: JACK BENNY RD., RANCHO MIRAGE
Maze Answer
WordSearch Answer
C
elebrated entertainer of stage, radio and television fame, Jack Benny was portrayed as a penny-pinching miser. In reality he was one of the most generous and best-loved persons in show business, or anywhere else. He was a source of joy and laughter to all who knew him. Jack Benny was a long-time resident of the desert and a founding member of Tamarisk CC in Rancho Mirage. He often broadcast his radio programs from the famed Plaza Theatre in Palm Springs. Benjamin Kubelsky grew up in Waukegan, Ill., where he learned early to play the violin and, as a teenager, performed in vaudeville. In his 20s, he joined the Navy and played his music for the troops, along with adlibbed jokes and comedy routines, which were met with more favor
May 25, 2017

than the violin. Later Jack resumed his vaudeville tours with the violin secondary to his act. He landed his own weekly radio show in New York, “The Jack Benny Program,” which ran from 1932 to 1955. He met his wife who took the stage name Mary Livingstone and added her to the cast. When Eddie Anderson turned up as a porter in a bit part, Benny noticed his comedy timing, recast him as his valet and the popular continuing character “Rochester” was born. Benny moved the show to L.A., so all his show business pals could appear with him. The writers rewrote the radio scripts with visual gags added and “The Jack Benny Show” became a long-running successful television program. In the mid-60s, when demographics revealed a younger television audience, Jack Benny’s show went off the air, after nearly 30 years. He then turned to specials, personal appearances and films.
