The region is referred to as the Carpathian Basin. North to South it is 268 km and East to West it is 528 km. The terrain consists of flat land plains to the East and smaller mountains to the West. Kékestető is the highest point with 1014 m in height. The main rivers are the Danube and the Tisza, both are considered large and are conducive to ship and boat travel. The largest lake of Central Europe is also found here called Balaton, it is 78 km long and 14 km at its widest point, covering an area of 592 km² and is referred to by Hungarians as the "sea of Hungary". It is a summer paradise for sailing, fishing and swimming with its silky sky blue waters. Budapest, the capital of Hungary is situated along the Danube. The river divides the city into two parts. The hilly Buda is located along the right bank of the Danube, while the flat left side is called Pest. Budapest is populated with approximately 1.7 million people, roughly one fifth of the country's population. More information about Budapest, Hungary is available at: www.budapest.com and www.hungary.com UNIVERSITY OF VETERINARY MEDICINE BUDAPEST The university has an uninterrupted teaching record for more than two centuries (since 1787), making it thus one of the oldest veterinary schools in the world. It is the only veterinary school in Hungary. It is a state institution supervised and financed by the Ministry of Human Capacities and is accredited to issue the diplomas of Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M), Master of Science (MSc) in applied zoology and the postgraduate degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in veterinary sciences. 3 Postgraduate education is also organized by the university for the veterinarians on several fields of the veterinary praxis meeting the demands of the colleagues wishing to specialise themselves in a certain animal species (horse, cattle, poultry, pet animals etc.) or in a specific field of veterinary praxis (microbiologist, toxicologist, veterinary legislation expert etc.). Besides the graduate and postgraduate education, internationally highly estimated research work on practically each field of veterinary work is run by the academic stuff of the university, mostly in cooperation with the support of different national and international grants. Keeping the demands of international integration and joining the European education and research community in mind, since 1989 in addition to a yearly enrolment of about 100 Hungarian students international students have been continuously enrolled in the school. A full veterinary program has been instituted and is offered in English with the pre-clinical section also in German. Currently about 1000 international students are studying veterinary medicine in Budapest from all over the world. In 2001 a new Large Animal Clinic was opened in an ideal rural environment of the University Field Station area 30 km from the city. The historical campus remained the centre with the Office of the Rector, the Basic Science Departments and the new Small Animal Clinic opened in 2006, while the new Large Animal Clinic is gradually developed into a centre for farm animal and equine practices. Both sites are equally equipped with up-to-date diagnostic and therapeutic facilities and will provide increased opportunities for teaching, practical training and research. Our university is also an EAEVE Accredited Institution as in February 2014 the European Association of Establishments for Veterinary Education evaluated our school in two stages examining our curriculum and our quality management system as well. The high level of veterinary training attracts excellent, motivated students and the European accreditation certifies that the level of the Hungarian veterinary training equals to that of the best schools in Europe. Results of the EAEVE evaluation are followed by professional organisations overseas, and the EAEVE accreditation helps to accept the diplomas outside Europe, too. 4 OFFICE FOR INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS The Office for International Relations is responsible for all students, professors, researchers arriving in the framework of the different scholarship programs or bilateral agreements.

Ethan is confused about more than just his sexuality the night he wanders into a white-trash bar after breaking up with his fiance. When he's dragged outside the bar and beaten by leather-clad thugs, he's rescued by the last man he needs in his life.

The enigma only draws Ethan in more as he finds himself unable to resist this man or the power he holds over him. Secrets are slowly uncovered. The bond between the two men deepens as scars of the past reveal themselves. But Ethan finds he's learning more about himself than he ever imagined as a new word finds it's way onto his lips: submission. **This is a 65,000 word stand-alone novel which contains intensely intimate scenes between two men, and a happily ever after with no cliffhangers.** The bases of paleodemography † Support for field work came from American Philosophical Society, N.
