Twierdza Modlin jako garnizon wojskowy II Rzeczypospolitej
Get PDFThe interwar period was a time of rapid development of our statehood. After 123 years, Poland regained its independence and began the reconstruction of the devastated country. The main task was to ensure the security of the state by creating a strong army. The Modlin Fortress, due to its convenient location and the existing infrastructure, was a suitable place to set up a strong garrison. Many military units were brought there to create training centres for various types of armed forces. Housing estates were developed to accommodate soldiers and their families. This large garrison quickly became a significant centre of military, educational, cultural, and religious life.Okres międzywojenny to czas burzliwego rozwoju polskiej państwowości. Po 123 latach Polska odzyskuje niepodległość i zaczyna odbudowywać wyniszczony kraj. Głównym zadaniem było zapewnienie bezpieczeństwa państwa poprzez stworzenie silnej armii. Twierdza Modlin była dogodnym miejscem do stworzenia silnego garnizonu dzięki dogodnemu położeniu i dotychczasowej infrastrukturze. W tym celu sprowadzono tam wiele jednostek wojskowych, tworząc centra szkoleniowe różnych rodzajów wojsk. Wraz z żołnierzami do twierdzy trafiły ich rodziny, co spowodowało rozbudowę osiedli mieszkaniowych. Ten duży garnizon stał się szybko miejscem ożywionego życia wojskowego, oświatowego, kulturalnego i religijnego

Let's Go Down
Oh, father, let's go down,
Let's go down, let's go down.
Let's go down, father,
Down to the valley to pray.
Chorus:
As I went down in the valley to pray, Studying about that good ole way And it's Who shall wear starry crowns? Good Lord, show me the way.
Oh, mother, let's go down,
Let's go down, let's go down.
Oh, mother, let's go down,
Down to the valley to pray.
(Chorus)
Oh, children, let's go down,
Let's go down, let's go down.
Let's go down, children,
Down to the valley to pray.
(Chorus)
Oh, Mona, let's go down,
Let's go down, let's go down.
Oh, Mona, let's go down,
Down to the valley to pray.

Child and youth care through a constructive-developmental lens
Get PDFPreviously, I have written about the discrepancy that exists between child and youth care as described in the literature, and child and youth care as it occurs in practice (Modlin, 2013). Instead of being a therapeutic environment, residential care can become quite the opposite. The pervasive frustration and anxiety that can be experienced by the staff, coupled with the entrenched emotional distress of the young people, often results in power struggles and ‘counter-aggression’ (Brendtro & Ness, 1983) between the staff and the young peopl

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Nowogródzka Cavalry Brigade as a part of the Modlin Army from the 1st to 11th of September 1939
No full textThe aim of this article was to present the military and political situation faced by Poland in September 1939. The situation of Poland before these events was also described. The article presents the struggle of the Modlin Army, and especially of the Nowogródzka Cavalry Brigade, as well as the 20th and the 8th Infantry Division and the Mazowiecka Cavalry Brigade, in the period from 1st of September, through fights with the Germans on 4th to 7th of September in the Płock region, until the time of the move towards the Kampinos Forest on the 10th . The cadre and weaponry of the Nowogródzka Cavalry Brigade and of its adversary, 217th German Infantry Division of the Third Army, were also described, presenting the military advantage of the Germans.Celem artykułu jest przybliżenie sytuacji wojskowej i politycznej, w jakiej znalazła się Polska we wrześniu 1939 r. Omówiona została również sytuacja Polski w okresie przed wydarzeniami wrześniowymi. Opracowanie przedstawia zmagania Armii Modlin, a zwłaszcza wchodzącej w jej skład Nowogródzkiej Brygady Kawalerii, a także 20. i 8. Dywizji Piechoty i Mazowieckiej Brygady Kawalerii, począwszy od 1 września, poprzez walki z Niemcami 4–7 września w rejonie Płocka, do czasu przemarszu w rejon Puszczy Kampinoskiej 10 września. Zaprezentowane zostały składy osobowe i uzbrojenie Nowogródzkiej Brygady i jej przeciwnika, czyli 217 Niemieckiej Dywizji Piechoty z 3 Armii, ukazujące przewagę militarną Niemcó
Smart Process – Smart Project. Modlin Fortress – new meaning of the ‘military city’
No full textCelem artykułu jest konfrontacja studialnego oraz idealistycznego podejścia projektowego ze strategią projektowania pragmatycznego/zawodowego dla konkretnego inwestora. Wywód prowadzony jest w narracji porównawczej pracy dyplomowej z aktualnymi działaniami projektowymi, docelowo inwestycyjnymi dotyczącymi Twierdzy Modlin. Pozwala to na zestawienie hierarchii wartości w obu przypadkach oraz zasadność przesłanek podejmowanych decyzji w procesie planowania i projektowania, zaś w kontekście prac zespołu projektowego, wzajemnych proporcji w udziale osób mających wpływ na projekt oraz kolejność wykonywania zadań inwestycyjnych.The goal of this paper is a confrontation of a study-based and idealistic design approach with the strategy of pragmatic / professional designing for a specific investor. It has the form of a comparative narration of a diploma dissertation with the current design-related activities, soon to be investment activities, referring to the Modlin Fortress. This allows to juxtapose hierarchies of values adopted in both cases and verify the legitimacy of premises underlying the decisions taken in the planning and designing process, and in the context of works of a design team, of mutual proportions in the contribution of people influencing the design, and the order of performance of individual investment tasks
Molecular Genomic Assessment Using a Blood-based mRNA Signature (NETest) is Cost-effective and Predicts Neuroendocrine Tumor Recurrence With 94% Accuracy
Get PDFINTRODUCTION: Identification of residual disease after neuroendocrine tumor (NET) resection is critical for management. Post-surgery imaging is insensitive, expensive, and current biomarkers ineffective. We evaluated whether the NETest, a multigene liquid biopsy blood biomarker, correlated with surgical resection and could predict recurrence. METHODS: Multicenter evaluation of NET resections over 24 months (n = 103): 47 pancreas, 26 small bowel, 26 lung, 2 appendix, 1 duodenum, 1 stomach. Surgery: R0 (83), R1/R2 (20). One millilitre of blood was collected at D0 and posroperative day (POD) 30. Transcript quantification by polymerase chain reaction (normal: ≤20), CgA by NEOLISA (normal ≤108 ng/mL). Standard-of-care (SoC) follow-up costs were calculated and compared to POD30 NETest-stratification approach. Analyses: Wilcoxon-paired test, Chi-square test. D BIOMARKERS: NETest: 103 of 103 (100%)-positive, whereas 23 of 103 (22%) were CgA-positive (Chi-square = 78, P < 0.0001).In the R0 group, the NETest decreased 59 ± 28 to 26 ± 23 (P < 0.0001); 36% (30/83) remained elevated. No significant decrease was evident for CgA. In the R1/R2 group the NETest decreased but 100% remained elevated. CgA levels did not decrease.An elevated POD30 NETest was present in R0 and 25 (83%) developed radiological recurrences. Normal score R0 s (n = 53) did not develop recurrence (Chi-square = 56, P < 0.0001). Recurrence prediction was 94% accurate with the NETest. COST EVALUATION: Using the NETest to stratify postoperative imaging resulted in a cost-savings of 42%. CONCLUSION: NETest diagnosis is more accurate than CgA (100% vs 22%). Surgery significantly decreased NETest. An elevated POD30 NETest predicted recurrence with 94% accuracy and post-surgical POD30 NETest follow-up stratification decreased costs by 42%. CgA had no surgical utility. Further studies would define the accuracy and cost-effectiveness of the NETest in the detection of postoperative recurrent disease
