  • Nurses and Midwives in Nazi Germany
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 03:18 04 October 2016 Nurses and Midwives in Nazi Germany This book is about the ethics of nursing and midwifery, and how these were abrogated during the Nazi era. Nurses and midwives actively killed their patients, many of whom were disabled children and infants and patients with mental (and other) illnesses or intellectual disabilities. The book gives the facts as well as theoretical perspectives as a lens through which these crimes can be viewed. It also provides a way to teach this history to nursing and midwifery students, and, for the first time, explains the role of one of the world’s most historically prominent midwifery leaders in the Nazi crimes. Downloaded by [New York University] at 03:18 04 October 2016 Susan Benedict is Professor of Nursing, Director of Global Health, and Co- Director of the Campus-Wide Ethics Program at the University of Texas Health Science Center School of Nursing in Houston.

Budapest, Heroes’ Square Budapest because: • it is the cultural, political and transportation centre of Hungary; • it is built on both side of the Danube, the great European river that is registered as a World Heritage panorama; • nature is safeguarded in two national parks and a number of environmental protection areas; • it has represented a “multicultural Europe” for centuries – over 200 nearby villages are populated by Hungarians, Serbs, Slovaks and Germans (Swabians); • it has a strong artistic and cultural heritage; • there’s always something happening: festivals, concerts, theatre perform- ances, sports competitions, exhibitions, church events, wine celebrations or handicraft fairs; • there are many outdoor activities to enjoy: trekking, rock climbing, biking, horse riding, golf, rowing, swimming, potholing or fl ying; • its restaurants offer not only Hungarian cuisine – and wine and palinka – but food from all over the world.

  • European Commission
    C 171/12 EN Offi cial Jour nal of the European Union 19.5.2020 OTHER ACTS EUROPEAN COMMISSION Publication of a communication of approval of a standard amendment to a product specification for a name in the wine sector referred to in Article 17(2) and (3) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 (2020/C 171/07) This communication is published in accordance with Article 17(5) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/33 (1). COMMUNICATING THE APPROVAL OF A STANDARD AMENDMENT ‘Duna/Dunai’ Reference number PDO-HU-A1345-AM02 Date of communication: 9.2.2020 DESCRIPTION OF AND REASONS FOR THE APPROVED AMENDMENT 1. Addition of the municipalities of Kömpöc, Petőfiszállás, Pálmonostora, Újszilvás and Bácsszentgyörgy to the demarcated area (a) Product specification headings affected: IV. Demarcated area (b) Single document heading affected: Demarcated geographical area (c) Reasons: — The Wine Community Council of the Kunság Region (Kunsági Borvidék Hegyközségi Tanácsa) amended the product specification for the ‘Kunság/Kunsági’ PDO. The areas of the municipalities of Kömpöc, Petőfiszállás, Pálmonostora and Újszilvás classified as Class I and II according to the vineyard cadastre of wine-producing regions were added to the demarcated area. The change affects the demarcated area in the product specification for the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO and has been included in this application. The characteristics of the areas included in the vineyard cadastre correspond to the demarcated area of the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO. Vine-growing is one of the traditional economic activities of local inhabitants. The classification of the wine region and the possibility to produce the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO generates significant employment and income in these municipalities and contributes greatly towards the local tourism industry.
