Open Cockpit puts you in a Vintage Warbird at Palm Springs Air Museum

By Alison Elsner

lying enthusiasts can visit the Air Museum every Saturday in August to climb into the pilot’s seat of some of the most incredible aircraft in history. Guests will feel what it was like to be in the throes of combat during World War II or the Korean or Vietnam Wars while at the controls of a vintage warbird. Aircrafts on display will include the AT-6 Texan (August 3), P-40 Warhawk (August 10), F7F Tigercat (August 17), P-47 Thunderbolt (August 24) and F-104 Starfighter (August 31). Aircraft hangars are fully airconditioned, and the Open Cockpit visits are free with regular paid admission to the Museum. While you’re there, be sure to take the full tour, which features four hangars organized by theme (Pacific-Navy,

European-Army, Major General Kenneth P. Miles and the small hanger that contains the B-17 Flying Fortress), computer flight simulators, Tuskegee Airmen mural, Women Pilots of WWII exhibit, Korean War Remembrance Wall, daily documentaries, the large wall European Map with interactive displays and Freedom Fighter’s Café. A visit to Open Cockpit will make you look at the world a whole lot differently, appreciating those who fought for us all. Open cockpits take place August 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31 from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The Palm Springs Air Museum is located at 745 North Gene Autry Trail, Palm Springs. The museum is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is $10-$17, children under 5 are free. For more information, call 760-778-6262 or visit palmspringsairmuseum.org. Answer on page 9

Feisty Farmer She was fed up with reckless drivers speeding on the open roads surrounding her village in Sefton, England, so 71-year-old farmer Edie Pope took matters into her own hands, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. The feisty farmer decided that if a scarecrow can deal with pesky birds that dine on

crops, a “scarecop,” dressed like a police officer with radar gun, might help keep the roads around her farm a little bit safer. It’ll take time to see if her solution works.

Pretty Potholes Pothole ridden streets are dangerous and unsightly but a local artist in Chicago may have come up with a way to give commuters a smooth and esthetically soothing ride, says the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. Jim Bachor is an accomplished mosaic artist who came up with the idea of filling the potholes with unique works of art on a trip to Pompeii. He uses a technique that employs shards of marble and glass just as mosaic artists did 2,000 years ago. Bachor says a tour guide in Pompeii inspired

him. The guide pointed out that the mosaic works of art that adorn floors throughout the ancient city look just as they did when they were first created. “I still don’t know if it’s legal or not, but I have had discussions with [Chicago] police through the years, about a half dozen, and once they know what I’m doing they don’t have an issue with it.”

If you ever wanted a compelling reason to join a group or get out more, here it is: A new study shows that poor social relationships contribute to bone loss in senior women. This wasn’t a small, brief study. In this Women’s Health Initiative, researchers studied the bone health of 11,000 women over six years and included information about social support and social functioning. The bottom line: Over those six years, high social stress equated to lowered bone mineral density in the femoral neck (where most hip fractures occur), the lumbar spine and the whole hip. They assigned a rating to levels of “social strain,” and found that each additional point added to the lowered bone density. There’s more to this than how many groups we meet with each week. It turns out it’s the quality of our relationships rather than the quantity. Life satisfaction and our sense of optimism play a part, which might well be tied in with

Dear Paw’s Corner: We’re now in the full grip of summer. Please remind your readers to be careful walking their dogs on the hot pavement, because it can burn the pads of their paws. -Debra L., Baltimore Dear Debra: Absolutely! Folks, even dogs that love being in the outdoors are vulnerable to injury from the hot pavement, and from heat in general. Here are a few tips for keeping pets safe during the summer: • Take pets outside early in the morning, before it gets very hot, or after sunset. • Before walking dogs on the side-

the quality of the relationships we do have. That’s scary, and for those of us who don’t have much time for socializing, it serves as a wakeup call. What are we going to do about it? The first thing that comes to mind is any activity that encourages interaction with others. Even a weekly reading group at the library, with participants commenting on the book they read and adding thoughts to others’ comments, has the potential to evolve further into coffee afterward, phone numbers swapped and invitations to other activities. The same goes for dog walking at the animal shelter, bus trips with the senior center, walking clubs around town, board-games night at the library and neighborhood yard sales. As a place to look for local activities, search online for the Red Hat Society (www.redhatsociety.com). (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc.

walk, place the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 to 10 seconds. If it’s too hot to keep your hand pressed to it, it’s too hot for your dog’s paws. Walk on a grassy area, instead. • If you must walk your dog on pavement (you live in the city, for example), place booties on your dog’s paws to protect them. • Make sure your pet has plenty of cool, clean water to drink, even if it spends all day indoors. • Don’t let your pet out in the backyard unless there’s a shady, open-air spot for it to rest. A blog post at Vets Now breaks down the details. Even when the air temperature is below 80 F, asphalt on the street can reach 125 F, especially on sunny days with little wind. That’s hot enough to cause severe skin burns, even on dogs’ seemingly tough pads. Brick and concrete pavement are only slightly cooler. So don’t leave it to chance. Take control of your pet’s comfort and safety this summer by making sure they are protected from heatrelated injuries. (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc.

on CBS, or is it just a tease for the summer? It really is enjoyable and so good to see so many of the cast from “The Good Wife.” -- Kathleen A: “The Good Fight” has aired for three seasons on CBS All Access, a streaming service (think Netflix or Hulu) that shows original content as well as older shows available from the CBS library. It costs $5.99 a month. This summer, the regular CBS network that is available everywhere has been airing episodes from the first season of “The Good Fight,” which stars Christine Baranski. It picks up one year after 10, fighting continued. In fact, two days later, a Japanese submarine sank two American ships.

Billy himself reportedly once claimed he had killed 21 men. On Aug. 13, 1902, German engineer Felix Wankel, inventor of a rotary engine, is born in Germany. Wankel reportedly came up with the idea for a new type of internal combustion gasoline engine when he was 17 years old. On Aug. 16, 1920, Cleveland Indians shortstop Ray Chapman is struck in the temple by a ball pitched by Carl Mays of the New York Yankees. He died 12 hours later.

On Aug. 12, 1964, British author and journalist Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond, the world’s most famous fictional spy, dies in England. His novels about the debonair Agent 007 were based in part on Fleming’s real-life experiences. The first Bond book, “Casino Royale,” was published in 1953. On Aug. 15, 1979, “Apocalypse Now,” the acclaimed Vietnam War film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, opens in theaters. It told the story of an Army captain who is sent into the Cambodian jungle to kill a U.S. Special Forces colonel who has gone AWOL and is thought to be crazy.

Q: What happened to the meteorologist who had the weekday mornings slot on ABC’s Channel 7 in New York? His first name was Bill. I believe there was a rumor that he had contract problems. Please enlighten me. -- G.J. A: According to “Radio + Television Business Report” (RBR.com), former WABC-7 meteorologist Bill Evans is now the program director

August 1, 2019

for Sag Harbor, N.Y.’s WLNG-FM 92.1 radio station. The most recent programming schedule shows that he is on the air Sunday afternoons and Monday nights. The station’s website www.WLNG. com also has a link that allows you to listen live via the internet if you can’t get the station on your radio in the car or at home. I’m not sure if Evans chose to leave TV or was forced out, but replacing him is a familiar face to national audiences. Former “Good Morning America” meteorologist Sam Champion is now in Evans’s old spot while still occasionally appearing on “GMA.” Champion was working at ABC7 when “GMA” first hired him years ago, and he says he’s thrilled to be back.

It’s All in the Game Perhaps “Jeopardy!” champ James Holzhauer might want to stick to word games; the professional gambler folded after playing 14 hands at this year’s World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

Jeopardy wins earlier this year. He took the 454th place in the poker fest, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC]. The Association of Mature American Citizens provides the Filler Files as a service on issues of concern to Americans over 50.

Boy Oh Boy Police in Brigham City, UT recently received numerous calls about a young man -- a very young man -- had set up a roadside stand selling beer. The Association of Mature American Citizens [AMAC] reports that when the police went out to investigate they caught the underage entrepreneur red handed. He was holding a sign with large block letters hawking “Ice Cold Beer.” But on closer inspec-

tion they saw the word “root” spelled out in very small letters between the words “Cold” and “Beer.” A very clever “marketing strategy,” said the police on the Brigham City Police Facebook page.

When Specialists Disagree Dear Dr. Roach: I am a snowbird who uses two different cardiologists for my health, and I am devoted to both of them. However, they have conflicting advice. I have coronary artery disease and had three stents placed in New York. I am an active 86-year-old woman who walks at least a mile daily and does light weights. My lab results are all normal. I take a daily baby aspirin and Plavix. I’ve done well with them. My Florida doctor wants me to discontinue the Plavix and take just the aspirin, but my New York doctor thinks I should keep the Plavix forever. I honestly don’t know the right course of action. -- S.T.M. Answer: Both aspirin and Plavix (clopidogrel) work by decreasing the activity of platelets, the specialized blood cells that start to form clots. They have been shown to

August 1, 2019

reduce blockages of stents, which hold open blood vessels that have been unblocked via a catheter in the heart. There are several different types of stents, and some of them have medications embedded in them, which release slowly over many months. These “drugeluting” stents require using both aspirin and clopidogrel for a longer period of time. There is some debate about how long to continue these medications, but I have not read any recommendations to continue them for more than 30 months. A study (the DAPT trial) used exact information about the person and the type of stent to make predictions about balancing risks, and the results of the study showed that in your case, using both aspirin and clopidogrel would reduce heart attack risk slightly, but at an increased risk of bleeding. Nonetheless, some cardiologists will continue both medications in some patients if there are no problems. It sounds like your New York cardiologist may have more knowledge about the stent, as it was performed in New York, so I would try to get the two of them to reach a consensus. There may be something about your particular case that warrants long-term treatment with these medication. (c) 2019 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved

Blue Water Vets Gain Agent Orange Benefits It passed! H.R. 299, known as the Blue Water Navy Vietnam Veterans Act of 2019, is now Public Law 116-23. It extends disability benefits to Blue Water Navy veterans who were presumed to be exposed to Agent Orange between Jan. 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975. It will take effect on Jan. 1, 2020 when the VA will begin processing claims. Here are some of the specifics you need to know:

If you were on a vessel within 12 nautical miles of the Vietnam or Cambodian coasts, you may be eligible for presumption of exposure. You also may be eligible if you have any of the diseases previously connected with Agent Orange: AL amyloidosis, chloracne or similar acneform disease, chronic B-cell leukemias, diabetes mellitus Type 2, Hodgkin lymphoma, ischemic heart disease, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, Parkinson’s disease, early-onset peripheral neuropathy porphyria cutanea tarda, prostate cancer, respiratory cancers (lung, bronchus, larynx or trachea) and some soft-tissue sarcomas. If you applied for AO disability and were turned down, file again. Eligible survivors should also file. If you’re age 85 or older and you are ill, your claims will be pro-

cessed first. We can thank in part the Institute of Medicine, which was asked years ago to determine whether shipboard veterans could possibly have been exposed to AO, and if so, how. The answer was in the water distillers that converted sea water into water used on the vessel for showers, coffee, laundry, etc. They called it a “plausible pathway of exposure.” To determine if you’re eligible

for benefits, go online to www. va.gov and put Blue Water Veterans in the search box. Look for the first link, titled Agent Orange Exposure in Vietnam Waters (Blue Navy Veterans). You also can contact your Veteran Service Office or call the VA at 800-8271000. And keep an eye on www. bwnvva.org, the Blue Water Navy Association website. (c) 2019 King Features Synd., Inc.
