Search for New High-κ Dielectrics by Combinatorial Chemical Vapor Deposition
Authors: Xia Bin , Smith Ryan , Chen Fang , Campbell Stephen A. , Gladfelter Wayne L. 
Published: June 2017

AbstractTo develop a high-κ gate dielectric for replacing SiO2 in MOSFETs, multi-component metal oxides could have advantages over single metal oxides because they may offer higher dielectric constants (κ's) as well as other favorable properties. To find the film composition for obtaining a good dielectric from the given component oxides is a time-consuming and costly process for multi-component systems. Recently, we reported a combinatorial chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technique to deposit compositional spreads of ternary metal-oxides for high-κ dielectrics. In this work, compositional spreads of ZrO2, TiO2, SnO2 and HfO2 were deposited using anhydrous metal nitrates. By measuring chemical composition, film thickness, and electrical properties, we are able to map κ and establish its dependence on film composition. This high-throughput deposition technique allows us to generate a compositional library quickly for screening material properties. In addition, a crystalline phase which does not exist in any of the four pure oxides, α-PbO2, was detected.
Prof. dr hab. Benignus Józef Wanat OCD jako propagator kultu św. Rafała Kalinowskiego
Authors: Praśkiewicz Szczepan T. 
Published: June 2017

Artykuł przedstawia zaangażowanie śp. prof. dr. hab. Benignusa Józefa Wanata OCD w szerzenie kultu św. Rafała Kalinowskiego (1835–1907), powstańca styczniowego i katorżnika Sybiru, później karmelity bosego, odnowiciela zakonu na ziemiach polskich, który jako pierwszy karmelita bosy, po św. Janie od Krzyża, dostąpił w Kościele chwały ołtarzy przez kanonizację. Ojciec Wanat był twórcą kaplicy i muzeum św. Rafała w klasztorze karmelitów bosych w Czernej koło Krakowa z okazji jego beatyfikacji w 1983 roku. Z kolei z okazji kanonizacji św. Rafała w 1991 roku, będąc przełożonym prowincjalnym, o. Wanat opublikował jego biogram w dzienniku watykańskim „L’Osservatore Romano”, współpracował z artystami wykonującymi podobizny świętego oraz skierował do polskich karmelitów bosych list okólny, prezentując życie i duchowość św. Rafała, nazwanego „Nową Gwiazdą Karmelu”.Autor artykułu czerpie wiedzę z publikacji oraz z autopsji, znając wiele szczegółów dotyczących przedmiotowej sprawy jako naoczny świadek.
Analogia ad legendum. Funkcja znaczeniowa, użytkowa i kompozycyjna dwóch ambon w kościele oo. Dominikanów w Lublinie
Authors: Kluz Paulina 
Published: June 2017

W kościele dominikanów w Lublinie odnajdujemy nietypowy przykład znajdujących się we wnętrzu sakralnym dwóch ambon usytuowanych vis-à-vis na łuku tęczowym. Są one dziełem rzeźbiarza Sebastiana Zeisla, który wraz z warsztatem w latach ok. 1756–1761 wykonał rokokowe wyposażenie dla tej świątyni. Rzeźbiarska dekoracja ambon buduje odniesienia do ich funkcji kaznodziejskiej, jak również do duchowości dominikańskiej. Rozwiązanie to formalnie wydaje się zainspirowane modelem kompozycyjnym ambona–antyambona, który był wynikiem rozwinięcia posoborowej koncepcji symetrycznej (kulisowej) organizacji wnętrza sakralnego. Jego znajomość przez wykonawcę mogła być wynikiem inspiracji lokalnej (np. kościółem św. Anny w Lubartowie) bądź wcześniejszego środkowoeuropejskiego doświadczenia artysty, w tym jego edukacji odbytej prawdopodobnie w kręgu artystów wiedeńskich. Jednak budowa dwóch dominikańskich ambon, spośród których obie były użytkowane (żadna z nich nie jest pozorna), świadczy o tym, że prócz kompozycyjnej pełniły również inne funkcje. Wydaje się, że na ich powstanie miały wpływ indywidualne potrzeby lubelskiego zakonu dominikanów, przede wszystkim praktyka kaznodziejska. Dotychczasowy stan wiedzy pozwala domniemywać, że budowa dwóch ambon ma związek z ich rolą podczas liturgii, a mianowicie prowadzeniem kazań polemicznych przez Braci Kaznodziejów w Lublinie.
Medal na pamiątkę wręczenia papieżowi Innocentemu XI sztandarów tureckich zdobytych pod Parkanami, autorstwa Giovanniego Martino Hameraniego z 1684 roku. Uwagi ikonograficzne
Authors: Rokita Jan Gustaw 
Published: June 2017

Autor artykułu opisuje szczegółowo cztery zabytki z epoki mające związek z opisywanym medalem. Autor zauważa, iż mamy w tym wypadku do czynienia unikatowym artefaktem pochodzącym z epoki Sobieskiego, który ponad wszelką wątpliwość został odwzorowany przez medaliera na krążku. Przypuszczać należy, iż przebywający w interesującym nas okresie w Rzymie Giovanni Martino Hamerani miał możliwość osobiście studiować wspomnianą chorągiew turecką typu zulfikarowego lub korzystał z wcześniejszej grafiki, której autor ze szczegółami skopiował wygląd tureckiego trofeum. Niemniej wartym podkreślenia pozostaje sam fakt, iż wzmiankowany obiekt zachował się do dnia dzisiejszego w zbiorach Zamku Królewskiego na Wawelu w Krakowie. Niewątpliwe w pełni świadoma decyzja dysponenta, którego zlecenie wykonywał medalier, podyktowana była przede wszystkim względami propagandowymi. Potencjalny odbiorca po pobieżnym nawet kontakcie z medalem nie mógł mieć wątpliwości, iż przeciwnik turecki zagrażający nie tylko Wiedniowi, lecz również całemu kontynentowi europejskiemu został pokonany podczas bitew pod Wiedniem i Parkanami. Zaś świadectwem triumfu militarnego stały się porzucone przez ewakuującego się wroga chrześcijaństwa znaki wojskowe.
Kościół bernardynów w Rzeszowie. Mistagogia przestrzeni prowadzącej do wnętrza świątyni
Authors: Ryba Grażyna 
Published: June 2017

W latach 1610–1629 z fundacji Mikołaja Spytka Ligęzy wzniesiono w Rzeszowie na miejscu objawień Matki Boskiej kościół, nad którym opiekę powierzono bernardynom. W związku z jubileuszem 500-lecia owych objawień, przypadającym w 2013 roku, w kościele dokonano szeregu prac renowacyjnych. W kruchcie, która zajmuje dolną kondygnację wieży, na osi na wprost prezbiterium odkryto wejście, zamurowane prawdopodobnie wkrótce po wybudowaniu kościoła, i przebito je ponownie, zgodnie z pierwotnym założeniem. Pomieszczenie kruchty w przyziemiu wieży zajmuje przestrzeń na planie zbliżonym do kwadratu, przykrytą sklepieniem krzyżowym. W każdej ścianie znajduje się otwór wejściowy wypełniający wnękę w grubości muru zamkniętą łukiem odcinkowym. Dwie pary dwuskrzydłowych drzwi z brązu, obustronnie rzeźbionych, prowadzą do wnętrza kruchty z zewnątrz, natomiast kolejne drzwi, również pokryte dekoracją rzeźbiarską, oddzielają to pomieszczenie od nawy. Ich częściowe przeszklenie sprawia, że w kształt pola obrazowego zostaje wpisane całe wnętrze bogatej, manierystyczno-barokowej budowli, tworząc przestrzenny układ scenograficzny, rozwijający się w głąb, aż do tabernakulum i ołtarza głównego w prezbiterium. Z natury rzeczy ruchomy układ skrzydeł pozwala tworzyć zmienne konfiguracje o zróżnicowanym przesłaniu, rozwijającym się w czasie i przestrzeni. Obrazy z historii lokalnego objawienia i postaci miejscowych świętych poprzez przedstawienia i cytaty biblijne stopniowo prowadzą widza do tajemnicy wcielenia. Przestrzeń kruchty, łącząca umiejętnie przekaz ikonograficzny z symboliką i ekspresją formy (m.in. symbolika światła i symbolika materiału) stanowi znaczący element, a zarazem metaforę wtajemniczenia mistagogicznego, dokonującego się podczas przekraczania granicy pomiędzy profanum a sacrum.
The stonemasonry centre in Dębnik under the management of the discalced Carmelites in Czerna
Authors: Skrabski Józef 
Published: June 2017

One of the most famous centers of stonemasons’ settlement in Poland is located in a small village Dębnik near Krakow, which from 1628 years belonged to the Monastery of the Discalced Carmelites in Czerna. Carmelites dealt with the administration, leasing stone mines, obtaining stonmasons and acquiring customers. The text examines the history of the stonemasons’ settlement under the management of the Discalced Carmelites from the beginning of the seventeenth century until 1953, the administration of craft workshops, management and relations between religious and stonemasons in different historical periods.
The role of monastic embroidery workshops in the formation of the early modern Polish embroidery
Authors: Stanilewicz Karolina 
Published: June 2017

The article presents the state of research and the research problems concerning the early modern Polish embroidery and the role of the monastic workshops in its formation. Embroidery was one of the regular occupation in the female congregations. Nuns embroidered for their churches, as well as they took the orders from outside – from male congregations, the higher clergy and the secular customers. Their importance has increased in the 17th century, and in the 18th century nearly all convents dealt with this craft. The preserved embroideries reflect the general stylish trends prevailing in the handicrafts, but they are characterized by greater conservatism. Their level is very varied, from perfect works to very weak and inept ones. Nuns rarely prepared themselves patterns for embroideries, more often they used the services of craftsmen or they were repeating the proven solutions. They certainly used the embroidery pattern books. An important inspiration for them were also patterns of fabrics. While the floral motifs showed high proficiency, in less common figural presentations we often see much incompetence. Vestments decorated with the elaborate symbolic representations are distinguished among them. At this stage of research it seems that the monastic workshops have had a major impact on the prosperity of embroidery in the Republic of Poland and that along with the guilds they developed a certain style and taste. Preserved objects are waiting for being catalogued and for insightful research that let us connect more of them with definite workshops.
Arcabas’s paintings in the Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette
Authors: Szweda Piotr 
Published: June 2017

Acting under the nickname Arcabas, Jean-Marie Pirot is a contemporary French religious painter, totally unknown in Poland. Arcabas’s artistic output is enormous, albeit difficult to catalogue. Today his works can be admired in many churches in France, in other locations across Europe, as well as in North and South America, or even in distant Japan. Our article presents a synthesis of the artistic path of Arcabas as a versatile painter who likes to influence human senses by colours while looking for harmony and beauty as God’s humble follower. In his works he transfers biblical scenes to canvas, transforming them into visual art. Moreover, we analysed six Arcabas’s paintings exhibited in the cradle of the congregation of Missionaries of Our Lady of La Salette, i.e. in the shrine of Our Lady of La Salette in France: The Wedding at Cana, Mouring at Calvary, Christ Pantocrator, The Symbols of Five Evangelists, Crowned Madonna with Child Jesus, La Salette – the Encounter. The artist’s smooth transitions from the literal to the abstract, and even combining both in a single work cause Arcabas’s works to be greeted with enthusiasm on the one hand, but criticized on the other. Jean-Marie Pirot’s art is far from clear or easy to absorb; it is rather challenging and ambiguous. It holds a mystery that intrigues, invites and encourages us to look deeper. It contains strong links to traditional Christian art, both eastern and western. The painter is not satisfied with merely becoming part of the long tradition and being inspired by themes from the repertoire of the past. He is not a slave to traditional figurative art, although his works do contain references to this tradition; instead, he demonstrates his creativity, always coming up with something new. In addition, Arcabas’s output demonstrates exceptional freedom in intertwining the sacred with the profane, sometimes suggesting that the very division should be rejected. His works, including those displayed in the shrine in La Salette, raise many questions, and provoke deep thoughts and many feelings, ranging from negative to positive. It should be emphasized that Arcabas’s paintings in the shrine of Our Lady of La Salette are not kitsch, but exemplify brilliant art of the 20th century.
The Krakow church and Bl. Bernardyna Jabłońska in the years 1896–1940
Authors: Urban Jacek 
Published: June 2017

100 years ago died St. Brother Albert Chmielowski. 75 years ago died Bl. Sister Bernardina Jabłońska. We are thus commemorating two important anniversaries. They are important for the Albertine family, for Albertine Brothers and Sisters; they are significant for the history of mercy. Krakow was the place where the Blessed used to work; the city that is particularly entitled to commemorate them. St. Brother Albert died during the First World War (1916), Mother Bernardina at the beginning of the Second World War (1940). The article discussed the life and work of Mother Bernardina Jabłońska in Krakow from the perspective of Krakow Prince-Bishop Adam Stefan Sapieha, his collaborators, as well as secular clergy and regular clergy. Bernardina arrived in Krakow in 1896 as an 18-year old candidate for monastic life. Six years later, in 1902, 24-year old Bernardina became Superior General of the Albertine Sisters and in this role she continued to perform her duties until her death. The article opens with a sentence saying that “the entire Krakow” walked behind Mother Bernardina’s coffin at her funeral in 1940. The author attempts to make it clear who followed Bernardina’s coffin, who felt connected with her, who by the death of Bl. Mother Bernardina became part of the Albertine works of mercy. After St. Brother Albert’s death, Mother Bernardina took a number of decisions, e.g. sought to obtain a decree to approve the Albertine order as a monastic congregation in diocesan law, which was granted in 1926, decisions in matters of monastic formation, decision on the relocation of the order’s Main House from Kazimierz to Czerwony Prądnik, or on setting up further shelters in Poland. The establishments were open to everyone, regardless of age, religion or nationality. The author attempted to present at least selected signs of cooperation between the clergy (particularly Krakow clergy) and Mother Bernardina in her outstanding work.
BRAF Mutations as Predictive Biomarker for Response to Anti-EGFR Monoclonal Antibodies
Authors: van Brummelen Emilie M. J. , de Boer Anthonius , Beijnen Jos H. , Schellens Jan H. M. 
Published: June 2017

Abstract
Recently, the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) and the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) recommended that patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-expressing metastatic colorectal cancer could be treated with anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) cetuximab and panitumumab only in absence of Rat-Sarcoma (RAS) mutations. In addition to the previously established biomarker Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) exon 2, cumulative evidence also shows that patients whose tumors harbor KRAS exons 3 or 4 and neuroblastoma rat-sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (NRAS) exons 2, 3, and 4 mutations are found unlikely to benefit from anti-EGFR treatment.
In line with the resistance of RAS mutated (mt) tumors, treatment response in BRAFmt tumors may also be altered given their important role in the EGFR signaling pathway. However, BRAF is not recommended as predictive biomarker yet because the evidence for the impact of BRAF mutations on treatment outcome is considered insufficient.
This article summarizes the evidence for the impact of BRAF mutations on treatment outcome of anti-EGFR mAbs. Based on a review of literature, eight meta-analyses were included that consistently show that patients with BRAF mutations have a lack of treatment benefit of anti-EGFR mAbs. After discussing the quality and quantity of available evidence, we conclude that evidence is stronger than suggested by ESMO and ASCO. Additionally, we highlight that the quality of evidence for BRAF is even higher than for extended RAS as a biomarker. We therefore advise ESMO and ASCO to reconsider BRAF status as a predictive biomarker for response.

Published: June 2017

El presente artículo es resultado de una investigación, cuyo objetivo fue la de identificar factores de naturaleza no monetaria asociados las Pymes del sector Confecciones a Mercados Internacionales. Se consideró, como enfoque de investigación la metodología cuantitativa y método descriptivo. La técnica de investigación para el levantamiento de la información fue la encuesta, realizada por medio de instrumentos de recolección de datos, aplicados a una muestra de 31 empresas. Entre otros hallazgos se observó en la muestra la ausencia de desarrollos innovadores de modelos de gestión empresarial como el clúster, asociaciones, y cadenas de suministros. Se concluye en este trabajo sobre las cuestiones relacionadas con la competitividad y que para el éxito de las exportaciones es necesario llevar a cabo estudios de monitoreo sobre los indicadores de competitividad que los empresarios consideraron como elementos clave para el sector de la confección. AbstractThis article is the result of a research, whose aim was to identify non-monetary factors associated with Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (PYMES) of the Garments sector that affect its entry to International Markets. Thequantitative methodology and the descriptive methodwere used as the research approach; and a survey was the research technique used to gather information, applied to a sample of 31 enterprises. The findings show that the sample has lack of innovative developments for models of business management, such as the cluster, associations and supply chains. It is concluded, in relation to competitiveness, that for the exports success it is necessary to carry out monitoring studies on competitiveness indicators, considered by business people as key elements for the Garments sector.

The Relationship between Courts and the Other Arms of Government in Promoting and Protecting Socio-economic Rights in South Africa: What About Separation of Powers?
Authors: Davis Justice Denis 
Published: June 2017

The model of constitutional democracy which is envisaged in the 1996 text of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (the Constitution) has been described as promoting 'a thick' conception of democracy. It is concerned with the empowerment of all citizens to participate in decisions that are crucial to the outcome of their life choices. At its most basic promise, the Constitution promotes a model of participatory democracy, by creating a series of representative institutions and enabling participation in decision making, both inside and outside of these institutions. Expressed differently, the Constitution promotes both participation through regular elections and enshrines a principle of accountability in terms of which government can be held accountable for particular aspects of its policy, particularly those which fail to pass constitutional muster. That leads to the second component of the model which introduces a substantive set of guarantees to ensure participation. The idea is that various institutions of State should work to promote and to vindicate basis democratic principles which are directed to accountable control of decision making and substantive political equality between citizens.
Cave Pecuniam: Lawyers as Launderers
Authors: Hamman Abraham 
Published: June 2017

The attorney’s trust account is an enticing prospect for criminals seeking ways to launder money acquired illegally, and the attorney whose trust account is abused in this way stands to be branded and punished as a money launderer. The overall aim of the article is to identify the dangers which money launderers pose to attorneys and to highlight the need for vigilance in the face of these dangers. It analyses the anti-money laundering reporting obligations imposed on attorneys by the Financial Intelligence Centre Act and considers impact of these obligations upon the attorney-client relationship. Some of the ways in which a law practice may become implicated in the placement, layering and integration stages of the money laundering process are discussed, and cases which deal with attorneys’ involvement in money laundering schemes are presented.
African-Style Mediation and Western-Style Divorce and Family Mediation: Reflections for the South African Context
Authors: Boniface Amanda 
Published: June 2017

Both Western-styled mediation and African-styled mediation are practised in South Africa. Each of these models is applied in specific social contexts. In this article a brief explanation of what is meant by the term divorce and family mediation is provided. Thereafter the principles and processes of both Western-styled divorce and family mediation and African-styled group mediation are explored. Attention is given to the roles of mediators in both of these models as well as the ubuntu-styled values found in African group mediation. In Africa, there is a tradition of family neighbourhood negotiation facilitated by elders and an attitude of togetherness in the spirit of humanhood. Both of these show a commitment to the community concerned and a comprehensive view of life. In Africa conflicts are viewed as non-isolated events and are viewed in their social contexts. Not only are consequences for the disputing parties taken into account but also consequences for others in their families. These methods can be found in present-day methods, which are either used independently of imported Western structures or used alternatively to such structures. In this article the concept of mediation circles, as currently found in Western-styled mediation are also covered. Additionally, the provisions of the Children’s Act 38 of 2005 referring to mediation as well as the provisions of the Child Justice Act 75 of 2008 and family group conferencing in the realm of restorative justice in South Africa are critiqued. It is suggested that divorce and family mediation can learn from the principles of restorative justice applied during family group conferencing as well as from African-styled group mediation.
