Otitis externa is the most common disorder of the cat ear canal in small animals, with a higher incidence in dogs than in cats. It has a multifactorial etiology comprising of numerous predisposing, primary and perpetuating factors. The most important primary causes are atopy, food allergy, otodectic mange, foreign bodies, endocrinopathies and keratinisation disorders. Bacteria and yeasts residing in the ear canal usually complicate the initial lesions thus leading to the establishment of ceruminous or suppurative otitis externa. Otitis media and chronic hyperplastic changes of the ear canal are hold responsible for the perpetuation of the disease. A diagnosis is easily made from the history, the cleaning of the ear canal and otoscopy, the cytologic and parasitologic examination of ear exudates, the bacterial culture and sensitivity testing and the radiography (cartilage mineralization, otitis media). Evaluation and treatment of the underlying skin disease is always necessary. Therapy of otitis externa depends on identifying and controlling the predisposing and primary factors, whenever possible. Medical treatment includes cleaning of the ear canals and the middle ear, applying topicals and/or administering systemic medications (acaricides, antifungal agents, antibiotics, glucocorticoids). Corrective surgeries are indicated in the refractory to medical treatment cases.

“…Fructose and Clutter that specialize in adult toys and ‘artefacts for a second childhood’, to websites like Officeplayground.com, Millionaireplayboy.com and Kimandjason.gostorego.com (the latter the purveyors of a range of ‘Adulthood stinks’ products) that cater to the needs of ‘rejuveniles’ and other ‘kid-centric obsessives’. From the ‘toyification’ of new technology (Noxon, 2006: ch. 3), to the desire of young adults to extend their childhood through ‘instant nostalgia’, the ‘Skool disco’ craze, and other forms of ‘collapsed synchronic pastiche’ (de Zengotita, 2005: 35), the triumph of the ‘inner child’ over the ‘inner adult’ is bringing about the demise of what Andrew Calcutt (2000) astutely calls ‘a viable sense of adult agency’.…”

The 'long road to adulthood' that supposedly now characterizes the period from the teens to the late twenties (for individuals in developed countries) has been the subject of much recent media and academic commentary. This paper adopts a sociological perspective to review and critique this commentary, and in particular the argument made by certain developmental psychologists that the period between adolescence and fully-fledged adulthood is now distinct enough to constitute a new stage in the life cycle known as 'emerging adulthood'. In contrast, it is argued that, rather than anything as significant as a new life stage, what is actually happening is the erosion of established ones.To illustrate this point, the article introduces the new theoretical concept of 'life stage dissolution' (and its attendant bi-directional processes of 'adultification' and 'infantilization') -a blurring (or more accurately merging) process that makes it increasingly difficult for young people to differentiate and disassociate themselves from the generation immediately ahead of them, and indeed vice versa. The paper argues that, whilst this process takes a number of cultural/psychosocial forms, it is at its most prominent in contemporary Anglo-American advertising and marketing practices that actively seek to erode traditionally demarcated adult and childhood roles, differences, and oppositions as a new and distinct message within contemporary consumerism.Notes 1 I define 'lifestyle advertising' here as the attachment of a novel identity politics to the processes of consumption. 'Identity here becomes a reflection of "lifestyles" that are closely associated with commercial brands and the products they label, as well as with attitudes and behaviours linked to where we shop, how we buy, and what we eat, wear, and consume' (Barber, 2007: 167).'Life stage dissolution' in Anglo-American advertising and popular culture 543
