CONSTANT HISSING IN RIGHT EAR.
Answer

Tinnitus, often described as a ringing or buzzing sound in the ear, is a symptom that can be related to almost every known hearing problem. Tinnitus is not a disease, but it can be caused by exposure to loud sounds, middle or inner ear infections, tumors on the hearing nerve, and even wax on the eardrum.
Sometimes tinnitus can be medically or surgically treated. All patients with tinnitus should consult an ear, nose and throat physician (otolaryngologist) before seeking any other form of treatment.
It is not always possible for your physician to determine the cause of your tinnitus; each case is different. The same cause will not necessarily produce the same set of symptoms in each patient.
Dealing with Tinnitus
Although psychological or emotional problems may be associated with tinnitus, it is a real problem -- not imagined. Almost all patients indicate that stress or tension makes their tinnitus worse. Tinnitus is difficult to describe because there is no standard terminology related to it. Family and friends have trouble understanding the problems tinnitus patients face because they cannot see or hear it themselves. Because tinnitus is so hard to describe and treat, patients may fall victim to self-pity and depression. Some tinnitus patients withdraw from social interactions and alienate family members and coworkers--the very people who can help them cope with their problems.
Relieving Tinnitus
Approximately 40 million Americans have chronic tinnitus. For 10 million of these people, tinnitus can be a severely debilitating condition. However, for 30 million Americans with tinnitus, it is not bothersome. Tinnitus does not interfere with the enjoyment of life for the majority of people who experience it. Our goal is to help patients to understand and gain control over their tinnitus, rather than it having control over them. Ultimately we hope to help patients progress to the point where tinnitus is no longer a negative factor in their lives. We want them to move from the âseverely debilitatedâ group of tinnitus sufferers to the ânot bothered by tinnitusâ group and to enjoy their lives as much as possible.
There are, as yet, no cures for tinnitus but there are several treatments currently used to produce relief. One treatment is the use of Acoustic Therapy which is available in several forms. Another relief procedure involves medications to help patients to control their anxiety, depression, or insomnia. Research for relief procedures continues, and hope is very much alive.
Things to Avoid
All Loud Sounds
Wear earmuffs or earplugs when using chain saws, guns, lawn mowers, loud music or power tools. Exposure to loud sounds can make tinnitus worse and can also cause additional hearing loss.
Excessive use of alcohol, caffeine, or aspirin
However, moderate use of these products is usually O.K.

classic vw bug need some help?
Austin H
so im thinking about getting a bug for my first car my mom loves the idea and loves that theyre cheap
i was hoping to get a convertable and turn it into a baja bug is there anything i should know before i get into this? i dont have the bug yet so i should figure this stuff out
what are the goods and bads of a bug? specifically a convertable baja bug
oh and would i be able to take the baja bug camping? like could it handle light trails? i live in colorado so mountains are all over
and i was going to be a mechanic would this be a good car to learn off of? and could it haul maybe three lawn mowers? i repair them as a side job
Answer
Austin: A couple of responses to your questions and extras
1) If you are talking about a 'classic' convertible you are NOT talking about cheap. A good one, fully restored and in daily driver shape, will be worth about $8 to $12,000. Showroom quality will bring up closer to $18,k (Check eBay's completed auctions for an idea of price vs. condition)
Secondly, convertibles are rarer then bugs.. if you find one and start whacking away at it you will lose a bunch of its value right off the bat.
2) Ok.. dunebuggy AND street legal. You are talking about the old Myer's Manx type kits. A nice idea and best done with an old but with a bit of surface rust. Make sure the structural elements are still good (posts and framework).
3) Engine.. if you put in a 1700 engine and do regular maint. it should handle light (dirt) trails pretty easily. Just remember to keep cleaning the air cleaner and hose out the cooling fan / fins after any dirty ride. Maint. is the big key. MONTHLY oil changes.
4) Do not plan on being warm in the winter. The engine provides interior heat and it is too efficient to warm up with Colorado's snowy winter. This is good for the engine but sucks for the driver. So keep this in mind. ESPECIALLY if you hack off the top of a regular bug.
5) If you want to haul lawn mowers get an el camino or an old truck. The bug will not work very well for that.
6) Its a great engine to learn to work on. It is simple and easy to deal with for routine things - pretty much like your lawn mower engines. Just buy yourself an old 'how to keep it running' book from the 70's. (available on eBay as a reprint - xerox edition)
7) Back to the cutting off the roof part. The frame of the bug provides structural integrity to the car. If you cut the pilar posts and top off you will weaken the car. The convertible has extra stiffenng.
8) Lastly, if you MUST take it out in the snow, put some extra weight in the front (sandbags). This keeps the light front end ( you can actually pick it up in the front by yourself) from 'sking' an losing contact with the ground which makes steering a new adventure.
good luck.. if I were you *I* would go for it.
