"Please Release Him."
That was the simple but startling front-page headline on Wednesday in New Express, a cutting-edge newspaper based in China's southern city of Guangzhou. "Him" is Chen Yongzhou, one of the paper's investigative journalists who New Express says was taken away by police after reporting "problems with the accounts" at Zoomlion Heavy Industries."
Bloomberg reports that Chen's May 27 story on construction-equipment maker Zoomlion "accused the company of improperly accounting for sales, forcing Zoomlion to halt trading of its shares in Hong Kong and Shenzhen. The company has denied it falsified sales."
Zoomlion filed a complaint against Chen with local police last week, and he was detained on Oct. 18 for "damage to business reputation," media reports said.
The arrest of Chen comes as China has sought to crackdown on what it has described as online rumors and false news.
Radio Free Asia calls the move by New Express "unprecedented" and notes:
"While all Chinese newspapers are tightly controlled by the propaganda department of the ruling Chinese Communist Party, some continue to push the limits set down for them, in particular through investigative reporting of alleged corruption."
New Express editors said: "We had always believed that it was enough to carry out responsible reporting and that then no problems would arise, or that if they did we could apologize or correct them or compensate [the relevant parties] through the courts, and that even if we were shut down, that we would have deserved it."
"Now, events have clearly shown us that we were too naive," the article said.
"Even though Zoomlion is very strong and has paid a lot of taxes in Changsha, we are still class brethren, and there are contradictions here," the newspaper's commentary pleaded. "We beg the police, our brothers, please let Chen Yongzhou go."
The Hollywood Reporter says the front-page piece was "widely carried on Weibo, the Chinese version of the banned Twitter service, and also ran in Chinese mainstream media, without any obvious censorship."

Resumes are like advertisements. As such, it's important to decide which type of "ad" – in this case, format – you will use before you begin the resume writing process. Depending on the type of job you are applying to, different resume formats may apply. The four standard types of resumes include 1) chronological, 2) functional, 3) combination, or 4) targeted. Below are definitions of each type and recommendations on which format works best. Once you have developed your resume, post it online at America's Job Exchange and begin your job search today.
- What is it - Chronological resumes are the most commonly used format. They list work history in chronological order, starting with your most recent job down to your earliest. This resume is preferred by most employers because it provides a quick snapshot of work history, with most recent positions up front.
- Who should use - If you have a solid work history, your experience is aligned with the job you are applying to, and you have no lapses between employment, use this format
Functional Resume:
- What is it - Unlike chronological resumes, functional resumes focus on your skills and experience first. This type of resume de-emphasizes the dates in which you have worked. Employment history is secondary, and is listed under the details of your skills.
- Who should use - If you have lapses in employment, are in the middle of a career transition, are a recent college grad with limited work experience, or have a diverse background with no clear career path, this is the most effective type of resume.
Combination Resume:
- What is it - Combination resumes let you detail both your skills and experience, while also backing this up with a chronological listing of work history. Flexible in nature, the combination resume lets you tailor to the prospective job opening and tell hiring managers a story.
- Who should use - Use this resume if you want to detail work experience to show hiring managers the type of employee you are.
Targeted Resume:
- What is it - Targeted resumes are customized in detail to the prospective job you are seeking. Everything from your objective, your qualifications to educational experience mirrors the job requirements.
- Who should use - These resumes are the most time-consuming, but can generate the best results as the qualifications and experience you outline mirror the prospective job opening closely. Be careful, however When you develop a targeted resume you need to be as accurate as possible and not embellish career highlights simply to mirror the job.

Dalkey (/ˈdɔːkiː/; Irish: Deilginis, meaning "thorn island") is one of the most affluent suburbs of Dublin,[2][3][4] and a seaside resort southeast of the city, and the town of Dun Laoghaire, in Ireland. It was founded as a Viking settlement and became an active port during the Middle Ages. According to chronicler John Clyn (c.1286–c.1349), it was one of the ports through which the plague entered Ireland in the mid-14th century. In modern times, Dalkey has become a seaside suburb that attracts some tourist visitors. It has been home to writers and celebrities including Jane Emily Herbert, Maeve Binchy, Hugh Leonard, Bono, Van Morrison and Enya. The village and broader area lie within the jurisdiction of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council.
The town is named after Dalkey Island, just off shore. The name is derived from the Irish deilg ("thorn") and the Old Norse ey ("island").

9 Most Popular Types of Driveways For Your Home
While there's no discounting their designated function, driveways can and should be considered to be visually pleasing– if done right. Thankfully, with the right specialist, this is an objective that's easily accomplished. Nevertheless, it should be said that there's a reasonable quantity of leg work to ensure that you're getting exactly what you desire. Exactly what many people don't immediately think about is the huge amount of driveways that can be used to the house.
In this post, it is our aim to speak about the majority of the popular kinds of driveways. We'll also talk about a few of the pros and cons in having them set up, as they all have different properties and assorted problems that they might come with. This is specifically the case for us in this area, as we have a myriad of various climate problems, particularly when it pertains to whether or not our selections will stand up to cold and freezing temperature levels.
1. Concrete Driveway
Concrete is considered to be the most popular type for a number of reasons. Chief among these is the fact that it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to install. Furthermore, you don't have to worry about its durability. It's made to last. Concrete also offers some flexibility in its appearance. It can be stamped or dyed to change the color, texture, or richness. Many people even augment it to make it look more expensive.
While concrete is definitely known for its durability, concrete does have a main drawback. Concrete can be affected by extremely cold weather. While most homes in this area should be fine, it can be a concern.
2. Brick Driveway
Brick driveway have long been a favorite for plenty of homeowners and businesses alike. The fact is that brick driveways exude a certain level of class. It's easy to see why; brick comes in a variety of colors and can be customized in such a way that it's unlike virtually any other driveway made of the same composition.
There aren't a ton of complaints when it comes to brick, but the most common complaints is that it's expensive. But, as they say, you get what you pay for.
3. Asphalt Driveway
Asphalt is another popular choice because it's very easy to install, especially when you compare it to concrete. This does allow a prospective party to save a little money on install costs. An additional benefit is that the black assists greatly in melting snow that will inevitably fall in this area.
For some, this can be a gift and a curse. By virtue of asphalt only coming in one color, you really don't get any customization options. Also, asphalt has sealing problems. You'll have to get it resealed about once every four years or so.
4. Gravel Driveway
Gravel is a rocky surface that has always been a mainstay due to its expensive material. Since it's readily available, you can expect to save a good amount of coin and headache involved in installation costs. It also comes in a great variety of colors, which will help you obtain the look and feel of a given driveway. gravel also helps with water runoff.
Since gravel are small rocks, there will be a fair amount of shifting around over time. Most contractors recommend that you edge or layer the gravel to assist in its upkeep. Also, gravel isn't always the best option for snowy regions.
5. Crushed Stone Driveway
We like a few things about crushed stone. Of all of these, crushed stone – while a bit similar – offers a smoother surface than what gravel can provide. However, like gravel, it does offer some flexibility in colors.
While there aren't many drawbacks of implementing crushed stone, one major for our area is that it's not the easiest for snow removal. This doesn't discount it completely, but it does give you something to think about.
6. Paver Driveway
This type of drive is made from brick, concrete, or natural stone. With this amount of variety, you can essentially get your pick of the litter. It looks good, holds up, and does offer that "wow" factor when seen from the street.
The biggest con is expense here. With there being a myriad of types and surfaces, it can be hard to pin down exactly how much one will pay. However, it's known to be one of the most expensive endeavors for driveways.
7. Basalt Driveway
We think that basalt is is one of the more unique looks for driveways. Outside of its beauty, we also like that it's very low maintenance and you don't have to worry about its structural integrity – regardless of most climates.
Still, basalt is a material that requires a very skilled company to make it look right. This isn't only in the actual work, but the selected contractor has to possess a keen eye during the consultation in the basalt's design relative to your home.
8. Cobblestone Driveway
Cobblestone has always been a favorite style of driveway. This timeless design is one that comes with a multitude of different design choices. The durability of cobblestone is one that comes without much compare. It simply holds up without much maintenance.
Cobblestone does take a certain kind of company to handle. Belgian block pavers aren't necessarily known to be cheap; these specialists aren't found everywhere. Also, the surface of cobblestone isn't always completely consistent, so you will have some difficulty cleaning snow.
9. Tar and Chip Driveway
Tar and chip may not be the most common choice, but it is one that we think should be talked about. It's probably one of the best surfaces for traction. Additionally you're not going to spend a lot of money for it. However, it does require a higher level of upkeep than many.
All of these driveways can be incredible for your home, given that you do the proper research and understand the advantages, disadvantages, and what you're going to pay. It's true that the plethora of companies in the Dalkey area can adequately perform many of these tasks, having a driveway replaced because of adequate – if not worse – work will be nothing short of a headache.
With that said, it's always best to get it right the first time. For a number of years, we have been providing these solutions – and more! – for our valued customers. If you're looking for the best looking driveway in your neighborhood, do not hesitate to contact us at EcoLandscapes for an estimate. Not only do we exceed from a standpoint of expertise, we also understand the importance of minding your budget.

What You Learned
Hunting is a safe sport, but it does involve a certain amount of risk. To plan properly when you prepare for your hunt, remember these four areas.
- Be Ready: Anticipate potential problems.
- Know Your Location: Familiarize yourself with the terrain.
- Prepare for Safety: Assess your physical condition and equipment, and firearm safety rules.
- Tell Others: Prepare a hunting plan.
Since hunting demands a lot of physical exertion, be aware of any conditions that could interfere with your abilities such as allergies, asthma, a heart condition, excess weight, poor physical conditioning, or poor mental condition.
Select clothing based on the weather you expect, while being prepared for the worst. In all types of weather, always wear a daylight fluorescent orange hat and daylight fluorescent orange outerwear. Daylight fluorescent orange clothing makes it easier for one hunter to spot and recognize another hunter because nothing in nature matches this color.
In addition to your hunting gear, which includes your firearm—or bow—and field-dressing equipment, you also should prepare a day pack that includes emergency supplies.
Whenever you're hunting in a remote or unfamiliar area, use a topographic map and compass. As you hike into unfamiliar terrain, you can keep your bearings by taking frequent compass readings and plotting your progress on a map.
If you become disoriented or if something else goes wrong, you have five primary requirements for survival.
- Shelter: Start preparing your camp well before dark.
- Fire: Gather more fuel than you think you can use.
- Signal: Use the international emergency sign for distress which is three of any signal.
- Water: Drink two to four quarts of water per day, purifying it if necessary.
- Food: Eat to keep yourself more comfortable and clear-headed.
The eight rules of survival are (1) Give a responsible person your hunting plan. (2) Don't travel or hunt alone. (3) Take enough food and water to last for several days in an emergency. (4) Bring a map and compass, and always orient yourself before leaving camp. (5) Wear layered clothing and take extra clothing, preferably wool and polyester, with you. (6) Plan your outings so that you can return to camp before dark. (7) Never leave camp without taking fire-starting equipment and a foil blanket. 8) Don't panic if you become lost.

The residential real estate market has been plodding along for most of the year. However, three recent reports show the market may be on the verge of a rebound.
The residential real estate market has been plodding along for most of the year. However, three recent reports show the market may be on the verge of a rebound:
1. Existing Home Sales (closed sales) are up, marking two consecutive months of growth.
2. Pending Home Sales (contracts signed) are up with each of the four major regions reporting both month-over-month growth and year-over-year gains in contract activity.
Here is the month-over-month growth:
- The Northeast rose 0.7%
- The Midwest increased 0.6%
- The South increased 1.4%
- The West grew 3.1%
3. Buyer Traffic (the number of people shopping for a home) is up compared to the same time last year, and for the first time in 13 months.
- The Northeast is up 5.9%
- The Midwest increased 1.3%
- The South is up 2.7%
- The West grew 2.2%
In their most recent report, ShowingTime Chief Analytics Officer, Daniil Cherkasskiy explained:
"The trend we saw in year-over-year buyer traffic in previous months continued across the United States. For all four regions there were more showings per listing this year compared to last year, making it the most competitive August in the last five years."
Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist with the National Association of Realtors, believes the uptick in activity will continue into the future:
"It is very encouraging that buyers are responding to exceptionally low interest rates…With interest rates expected to remain low, home sales are forecasted to rise in the coming months and into 2020."
Bottom Line
If you are thinking about selling your house, there are purchasers out there who are ready, willing, and able to buy.

A Real Stretch
Wednesday, January 7, 2009
I kid you not.
Kelly B. paid a whopping $4 for this, folks, JUST so she could share it with all of you. Now that's loyalty.
I find it fascinating that someone can know how to spell "giraffe" without having any idea what one looks like, don't you?

i love the fact that the cake maker had to actually write 'giraffe' so that we (the public) know what the heck that was!

Is that supposed to be two cupcakes? So is this a horrible CCC gone even more wrong than possible?

Having to label your cake is a sure sign you have a Wreck on your hands.

In general, if you have to label it, it isn't working, right?

Damn, I thought it was a smiley dumbell for all us New Years dieters. We need all the help we can get you know. Now my stupid iron dumbells look lacking. I'm disappointed.
- January 7, 2009 at 9:29 AM
This one gets politeness marks in my book for having the courtesy to tell us what exactly it is. But who knows..maybe this cake decorator was a disaffected abstract art student whose globs just didn't match the greatness of Pollock or somebody else - and so the caption was to let our uncouth eyes know the motivation behind this cakey masterpiece.

I think if you have to announce what it is, then it's a dead give away that it does NOT resemble it intention. Just like cars, the only cars with HONDA written across the windshield are the cars that resemble nothing close to a honda...

You know it's not good when the "decorator" has to write out what it is because they know no one will know what it is!

It should say "giraffe" hee, hee.
Honestly, I'm surprised they spelled it correctly.
WV: faveness - Cake Wrecks is a faveness of mine. - January 7, 2009 at 9:37 AM
It looks more like a long necked yellow ladybug then it does a giraffe, is this a new hybrid we have'nt heard of before?
- January 7, 2009 at 9:38 AM
I teach kinders that could do a better job than that wreck.
- January 7, 2009 at 9:40 AM
Oh, but he looks kind of wobbly and cute. And...tasty?

There has been a plethora of cakes on cakeboards bearing a title. My thought is, if you have to explain what it is, it's not good enough to sell.
Maybe the idea was to make a child's cake that the child could pass off as his or her own creation? Like, a 2-year old child. - January 7, 2009 at 9:44 AM

That is a giraffe? Then I am Madonna.
Wow. - January 7, 2009 at 9:47 AM
- Kelli said...
Does it have five legs or four with a really long tail? It kind of looks like one (maybe the tail) is waving? But it can't be the tail, right, its coming out the front...

I think I would pay $4 to have a good laugh. Money well spent. Thanks for the chuckle.
You know, the giraffe is kinda cute, in an ugly kind of way. - January 7, 2009 at 9:53 AM

More micorbiology...Mitosis: reproduction through cell division.
Or it could be "budding". It's anything but a giraffe.
wvotd exhakine: The amino acid lacking in the brains of people who decorate cakes badly. The missing amino acid causes a delivery flaw in the synapes the carry the image the eye sees to the tasteful/tacky dicphering part of the brain. This results in a skewed perception of what looks accurate and what is acutally presented. - January 7, 2009 at 9:56 AM
- Craig said...
I felt more like the decorator should have written "Ceci n'est pas une girafe."
- January 7, 2009 at 9:57 AM
- January 7, 2009 at 10:01 AM
I have to ask Kelly B. if she felt at all embarrassed to purchase this?
I can just picture the cashier looking at me thinking "You are going to pay money for this??" Or maybe the cashier and the baker have both gone to the acid-trip zoo together. - January 7, 2009 at 10:05 AM

Just because you got paid to do it, doesn't make you a professional!!! GAH!
We really need to get some professional accreditation standards in this field so this doesn't happen to some poor unsuspecting parent! LOL
level 1: Master Cake Artist (leave the masterpieces to these guys!)
level 2: Advanced Cake Decorator (can handle most orders)
level 3: Intermediate Cake Decorator (basic grocery-store type cakes will at least resemble what it should be)
level 4: Basic Cake Decorator (your cake will look home made, but appealing)
level 5: Cake Wrecker! (order with tongue placed firmly in cheek; for the humour value only! Nobody is responsible for the icing to cake ratio with these people, and CCCs are best left to this group as well!) - January 7, 2009 at 10:10 AM
- D.B. Echo said...
I have a feeling that this cake design is based on a child's drawing. Which is actually a really cute idea.
MAD Magazine ran a piece decades ago in which children's drawings were rendered as three-dimensional objects. The rocket ship was pretty cool. - January 7, 2009 at 10:16 AM

Just. So. Sad.

Let me tell you what this really is. It's a smiling lollipop on a tiny planet that has four leafless trees and a dead one growing on the other side.
Ignore the giraffe label! - January 7, 2009 at 10:28 AM
It looks like he's waving to us with his fifth leg.
- January 7, 2009 at 10:29 AM
- Lizzy Leigh said...
That's not a giraffe. It's a lady bug holding a lollipop!

it looks like two bumblebees mating. :)

I was surprised the spelled giraffe correctly!
- January 7, 2009 at 10:43 AM
I had to comment because my WF is "abled". As in when Kelly B. bought this cake she en-abled the cake wreckecorator. Now there will be more of these bad cakes on the bakery shelf because the wreckecorator thinks they are good enough to sell!
- January 7, 2009 at 10:44 AM
I'm generally in favor of "Take Your Child To Work" days, but letting them _do_ the work?

My favorite wrecks tend to be the ones that have their description written directly on the cake. I want to walk into a bakery one day and glance at something that makes me think "WTF is that???" and then when I get closer, I'll be able to READ what it is. Awesome.

Oh no, it has brain tumors! Poor giraffe =( I'm glad she bought him now because he may not have long left...

Okaaaaaaaaayyyy...so just to show you how my mind works...and probably frighten the life out of you...while I was watching the Rose Parade all I could think of was that next year, there should be a CW float. I was picturing the ever hilarious monkey...now I think he should also be joined by the "Giraffe". Can't you just see them in all their petal/seed/grass covered glory?
- January 7, 2009 at 11:39 AM
At least it was only $4.
- January 7, 2009 at 11:43 AM
- KPP said...
I...kind of like it. Its a wreck, surely, but I might buy it anyway.
- January 7, 2009 at 11:43 AM
Maybe a giraffe from another planet.
- January 7, 2009 at 11:44 AM
As a rainy-day activity decorated by a preschooler, I would buy it.
As a "professional" cake . . . they've gotta be kidding. - January 7, 2009 at 11:49 AM
but it is so incredibly cute!
- January 7, 2009 at 11:53 AM
I wonder if it had "giraffe" on it from the start, or if they added it later after people kept asking?
- January 7, 2009 at 11:56 AM
- Dianna said...
I bet the decorator ran out of time and let her kids help. Yup.
- January 7, 2009 at 12:09 PM
I think it's cute... it would be cuter if it were better done, though. :)

I'm in the minority that thinks it's pretty cute. :) Kinda like something I might make (no, I'm not very artistically talented)....I might use two cupcakes for the body, but that's just me :)
- January 7, 2009 at 12:28 PM
You know what I see here?
I see the next design that should appear on the newest "Wreckwear" clothing!
Can anybody else see this on a baby's onesie or a toddler/kid's T-shirt? LOL.
I know I've seen kids' clothing with a random zoo animal & the name of the animal on it. I think it'd be a cute- no....Wrecktastic take on your kid's wardrobe ;) I'd buy one, and I don't even have a kid! - January 7, 2009 at 12:34 PM
- QubaHQ said...
Hmmm... I have to admit I actually DO LIKE IT. It has a certain naïve quality to it that makes it... cute (?)
Don't get me wrong, it is totally a wreck, but a cute one nevertheless. I would personally gladly pay up to $10 for this thing... and treasure it for years to come. - January 7, 2009 at 12:43 PM
sometimes life doesn't make sense?
Like I have to actually have to know what I'm doing to keep my job, but this decorator just gets to produce this??
I mean WOW! - January 7, 2009 at 12:46 PM
- B Flat Major said...
It looks like something my six year old would create: a cratered planet engulfed in sulfurous gas, orbited by a sun exploding (see the cloud of black smoke pluming towards the planet?) But to make the planet not feel so bad about its fate...the sun puts on a smile. Maybe he could start charging $4 a pop too.

I'm with D.B. Echo. The cake could have been recreated from a kid's drawing which makes it kind of endearing.

Kaylee: It's a [giraffe]. I like it.
Inara: You do?
Kaylee: Looks like it was made with, you know, longing. Made by a person who really longed to see a [giraffe].
Inara: Perhaps because they'd only heard of them by rough description. - January 7, 2009 at 1:07 PM

if this wasnt professional it would be great if only a 3 year old designed it and decorated it. but professional, come on, that person should be fired.

Huh. I've yet to see a yellow and black giraffe. I think our local zoo must be spray painting our tan and brown variety. And since when is it kosher to frost the cake board instead of the cake??

I hope it was tasty, Kelly...because it sure isn't cute!

Actually purchasing it is only encouraging them. What if the bakery manager gave this 'designer' one last chance to prove him/herself?
"Do your best, try your hardest, and we'll see if anyone buys it. If it sells you can keep your job. If not, don't let the door hit your bum on the way out."
The following day:
Designer: "It sold! It sold!"
Manager: "Ah, crap! Welcome to the team." - January 7, 2009 at 1:43 PM
- Scritzy said...
Okay, I looked at it, and I looked again, and I looked yet again, and I thought, "Maybe it's just the medication I'm on ..."
But apparently, yeah, that's supposed to be a giraffe.
*eyeroll* Reminds me of the fireplace cake, only with WAY less icing.
By the way, have you noticed if you read the word giraffe several times, it begins to look as if it's misspelled? - January 7, 2009 at 2:02 PM
My two-year-old saw this and immediately shouted "Spider! Talking on the phone!"

OMG! I actually think this thing is sort of cute! Giraffes are my favourite animal, and I collect giraffe-related items.
I also find it amusing that they had to write "giraffe" on it. Otherwise it just looks like... well.... I don't know. - January 7, 2009 at 4:20 PM

My 4 year old daughter had no idea what the cake was, and she is imaginative.
- January 7, 2009 at 4:53 PM
Add me to the list of people who think it's kind of cute... in a weird, twisted way. Must be the giant happy face that's as big as its body. C'mon, how can you not love that goofy grin, just a little bit?

If they were trying to appeal to children they missed the mark. As I was reading the post my 3 year old came over and asked what I was looking at. I responded by telling him it was a giraffe and asked if he thought it looked like one. He answered with a no and then added that he thought it looked stupid.

When I paid for this "Cake" the cashier looked at me like I was nuts. So I explained to her why and she looked very relieved. My 5 year old thought it was a dog.

I actually...rather like it. It's not terribly well executed, certainly, or worth £2.61 ($4) to me, but I find that expression of inane optimism rather delightfully cheering. :-D

I think if the parameters of the job were that the person had to make a giraffe out of two round cupcakes, without cutting them, it would take a really phenomenal decorator to do much better.

i love this cake, it makes me hoot. i look it up when i'm sad. i want it for my birthday cake next month. it is the happiest giraffe ever. not to eat, obviously because that much frosting looks beyond vile, but to marvel at in wonderment. a genius cake. why isn't it on a tshirt yet?

What's a Wreck?
What's a Wreck?
A Cake Wreck is any cake that is unintentionally sad, silly, creepy, inappropriate - you name it. A Wreck is not necessarily a poorly-made cake; it's simply one I find funny, for any of a number of reasons. Anyone who has ever smeared frosting on a baked good has made a Wreck at one time or another, so I'm not here to vilify decorators: Cake Wrecks is just about finding the funny in unexpected, sugar-filled places.
Now, don't you have a photo you want to send me? ;)

9 Lies People Tell Themselves
About Hearing Loss
Over the last few decades, major medical advances have helped us better understand the nature of hearing loss. Still, there's a lot of misinformation out there.
Here are nine common self-deceptions — little lies we tell ourselves that can ultimately sabotage our hearing.
Don't let them hold you back from getting the hearing help you need.
I'd Know If I Had Hearing Loss.
Reality check:
Hearing loss is often so gradual that you may not notice it at first. As your hearing loss increases, you may compensate by turning up the volume or asking people to repeat themselves.
We all tend to be stubborn. It's common to deny the problem initially, then blame others for mumbling or keeping the TV volume too low. But the fact is, people without hearing loss don't need to convince others that "I can hear just fine!" If others tell you to you need a hearing test, it's time to get one, especially when you consider that your odds of having hearing loss are 1 in 5.
It's not worth the trouble to improve my hearing.
Reality check:
Better hearing will improve your life, especially your relationships with friends, family and coworkers.
Hearing loss can be frustrating for you and lead to social withdrawal and depression. It can drive your family nuts when they constantly have to repeat themselves or leave the room because the TV is too loud.
The best solution is to deal with hearing loss rather than act as if it isn't a problem.
It doesn't matter if I put off getting hearing aids.
Reality check:
The sooner you address your hearing loss, the better. Hearing loss gets worse over time.
Researchers even have a name for this: "auditory deprivation." The longer you ignore your hearing loss, the more hearing you'll lose that can never be recovered.
Hearing aids can help, but only if you have enough hearing left to be saved. And the longer you live with hearing loss, the harder it is to adjust to using hearing aids.
Don't Wait! Early treatment
is the most effective treatment.
If I'm hearing impaired, it's just a matter of turning up the volume.
Reality check:
Sure, you can take that approach. But don't expect to have the best relationships. When people know they'll constantly have to repeat themselves, they tend to save themselves the trouble by avoiding you.
The right way to turn up the volume to use professionally programmed hearing aids, so that you don't have to turn up the volume on everyone else.
Keep in mind that people resent being burdened when they know that someone could just as easily help themselves.
Hearing aids won't work for me.
Reality check:
Hearing aids work for almost everyone, but only if you use the right technology with the right settings.
If you work with your hearing specialist to find the right hearing aid, programmed for your specific hearing loss, fitted and adjusted to your lifestyle, your hearing aids will almost certainly help you hear better.
Hearing aids are ugly.
Reality check:
Not any more. Older models were large, and there were few options.
But today, you can choose from dozens of behind the ear, in ear or in the ear canal models. The newest models are sleek and small, with some types that fit completely inside the ear canal, making them nearly invisible.
What's the right treatment for
your type of hearing loss?
Hearing aids will make me look – and feel – old.
Reality check:
First, hearing loss affects people of all ages.
Second, hearing clearly and participating in conversations with confidence and without hesitation can help you stay young and vibrant.
What can make you seem old: Constantly asking people to repeat themselves, missing parts of the conversation and responding inappropriately!
I can save money by just getting one hearing aid.
Reality check:
If you have hearing loss in both ears, you need two hearing aids.
There's a reason you have two ears; you use them both to locate the source of sounds, to maintain balance, and to hear sound clearly regardless of the direction it's coming from.
Buying one hearing aid to save money when you need two is like buying just one shoe — or a half a pair of eyeglasses.
Hearing aids are expensive.
Reality check:
Some flat-screen Ultra-High Definition TVs retail for more than $8,000, but the millions of people who buy them don't think they're too expensive. It's all about value!
Hearing clearly is part of staying healthy, happy and active. How much is that worth to you? The hearing specialists at Modern Acoustics will recommend the hearing aid options that best match your hearing needs, your lifestyle and your budget.
