INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your beagle's floppy ears are prone to reinfection, so you will need to be diligent about preventing future ear infections. One way to do this is to clean his ears at least once a week. If he has had chronic ear infections, you may need to clean his ears every day. Your vet can recommend the ideal ear cleaning frequency for your beagle. Schedule your beagle's ear cleanings for the same day and same time each week. Be aware that regular cleanings may not completely prevent future ear infections, but will reduce their frequency. Do not use medicated ear drops after you clean his ears, even if you have some left over from his treatment. Overuse of antibiotic ear drops can lead to the growth of bacteria that is resistant to most forms of antibiotics. This can make future infections very difficult to treat. Your beagle's long and floppy ears prevent good air circulation within the ears. Without much air flow, heat and moisture can get trapped in the ears, which can lead to an infection. To increase air flow, flip his ears on top of his head so his outer ears are exposed to air. If he flips them back, use some cotton gauze and tape to secure his ears to the top of his head. When you have his hears flipped back onto the top of his head, wrap the gauze once or twice around his head. Wrap the gauze firmly, but not so tightly that your beagle is uncomfortable. The gauze is not adhesive, so you will need the tape to keep the gauze together. You do not have to leave your beagle's ears flipped up all dayhe probably wouldn't tolerate having his ears like this for very long. Talk with your veterinarian about how long to keep his ears up in this fashion. If your beagle has a food allergy, then switching his food would be key to preventing future ear infections. Based on the results of the food elimination trial, your vet would be able to identify the 'culprit' ingredient. For dogs, common food culprits include beef, chicken, and dairy products. Feeding him a diet that does not contain the allergy-causing ingredient can help prevent future ear infections. Be aware that a diet with a novel protein source (a protein your beagle hasn't eaten before) may help prevent ear infections for a while, but may not be as effective once your beagle's digestive system becomes used to the protein. A meat-based diet that is low in yeast may help prevent yeast-based ear infections. Talk with your veterinarian before making any changes to your beagle's diet.

SUMMARY: Clean your beagle's ears regularly. Let air flow through your beagle's ears. Change your beagle's diet.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The feeling of depersonalization is usually not dangerous and commonly fades. Remind yourself that the feeling is uncomfortable, but temporary. This will make depersonalization have less control over you. Tell yourself, "This feeling will go away." Tell yourself, "I feel weird right now, but I am OK." Think about any other instances in which you experienced depersonalization, and remember that the feeling went away then, too. Notice what the temperature is, what things are around you, and what sounds you are hearing. Engage with a nearby object, such as turning on a fan or writing with a pen. This will force your mind to be in the present moment, and will lessen the feeling of depersonalization. You can also carry around a tactile item, such as sandpaper or something furry, to touch during intense depersonalization moments. Mentally list things you see, hear, and feel around you. If possible, listen to music. Aim for favorite tunes that give you positive feelings, rather than any music that may increase anxiety or sadness. Research shows that music therapy is effective for all sorts of mental illnesses and can significantly reduce anxiety, depression, or agitation, all of which may be present in chronic cases of depersonalization. Begin a conversation, or get back into the conversation you were having. This will bring you into the present moment. If you are alone, text or call a friend or family member just to chat. You do not have to reveal your depersonalization to others. At the same time, many people are aware of and have experienced depersonalization; if you feel comfortable, talk about your feelings with a friend as they are happening.
Summary: Acknowledge and accept the feeling of depersonalization. Focus on your immediate surroundings. Engage with those around you.

There is also a "ruderalis" or "auto-flowering" strains of cannabis. These strains are hybrids that have been bred to have an ability to start making buds automatically after a few weeks.

You can do it indoors, outdoors, or hydroponics style. It's all up to you. Growing weed indoors has many advantages when compared to the risks associated with growing marijuana outdoors makes, what with threats from theft and possibly the law if it is illegal to grow where you live. By growing marijuana indoors you can control the ambient conditions just exactly as you want them and grow a nice healthy cannabis plant. Growing your plant in the wild allows you to avoid any nosy neighbors and avoid being caught red-handed, but it does force you to relinquish an element of control: You can't control the weather, disease, thieves, or how they grow. However, outside also eliminates the need for an indoor growing room, saving you loads of money initially. Hydroponics is the term for growing plants (any kind) without soil. Believe it or not, they don't actually need it. While soil is obviously a source for nutrients, they can be had in alternative ways.

SUMMARY:
Know the law. Know the difference between the strains. Get your mitts on some seeds. Choose a spot and/or method.
