Abstract: The author of the present article analyzes essential features of the concept "economic crimes committed with use of the computer equipment and the modern information technologies". For this purpose the author studies current approaches to the definition of "economic crimes", and specifics of making crimes with use of the computer equipment and modern information technologies in the sphere of economic relations (production, distribution, exchange and consumption of goods and services as well as products of labor). The author states that the purpose of using these technologies is to facilitate commission of crime and conceal traces of crime, thereby complicating activities for detection and disclosure of the specified category of crimes. The methodology of the research invovles general research methods such as analysis, synthesis, comparison, induction, deduction, and specific research methods, in particular, system-structural and statistical analysis. The main conclusion of the article is the author's definition of "economic crimes committed with use of the computer equipment and the modern information technologies" as socially dangerous acts committed in the sphere of production, distribution, exchange and consumption of goods and services as well as products of labor by using a set of methods of storage, transmission, processing or destruction of computer information and hardware and software systems for the purpose of facilitation of commission of crime and concealment of its traces.

Abstract: The object of the research is the method for selecting and breeding as well as training search dogs. The subject of the research is the algorithm for developing and supporting the genetic resources of search dogs of hybrid populations like Laika reindeer herding and European jackal. The research and implementation of the practice of creating the genetic resources and developing the algorithm for selecting and training Laika reindeer herdings and European jackals has been done by the author for over thirty years. In this research the author has used the historical analysis (origin and development of domesticated dog and the problem of the reverse mutagenesis in the animal world), genetic analysis (the influence of jackals on features of domesticated dogs in the process of cross breeding), particularities of inheritting working features of dogs (in particular, their manifestation under different cross breeding conditions), experimental method (testing olfactor features of dogs in practice and work). The author has also used the descriptive and classification approach to analyzing the current list of breeds used in search activities (for example, dog security service at Aeroflot). The author offers the algorithm for creating the genetic sources of a universal search dog from Laika reindeer herding and European jackals, describes and classifies current genetic resources (owned by Aeroflot), and provides methods for testing dogs depending on their working abilities as well as methods for bringing up and training universal search dogs based on available genetic resources.    These dogs have a highly developed intuition and can become universal official search dogs. Describes the tragic fate of the small size stock huskies in Russia, ways of their hybridization with the jackal and the available population.

Abstract: The subject of the present research is the standard procedural, institutional, psychological and linguistic grounds of developing policemen's skills in communication with hearing-impaired citizens using dactile and sign language. The authors examine problems arising in the process of professional communication of law enforcement officials with hearing-impaired citizens. In order to solve these problems, law enforcement officials need to perform actions aimed at creating relevant conditions and psychological grounds for efficient communication. According to the author of the article, a policeman needs to define the main representational system of an individual and maintain a contact based on this system. The methodological basis of the research is the dialectical research method. The systems and activity approaches used by the author as the main direction of research methodology have allowed to analyze procedural, institutional, psychological and linguistic properties of interaction between law enforcement officials and hearing-impaired citizens from the point of view of certain patterns and interactions typical for their structural elements. The main conclusion of the research is that a policeman can maintain a psychological contact with a deaf or hearing-impaired citizen (i.e. situation of mutual understanding and overcome communication barriers in order to obtain information or perform actions that would be beneficial for achieving professional tasks) only if he or she manages to fully switch to the visual or kinesthetic information channels.

Based on the provisions made in her research, Zyrianova offers an amended version of Articles 225 and 40.1 of the Criminal Law Code of the Russian Federation. In her research the author uses different research methods, not only legal research methods but also analysis, comparison, generalization and induction. The novelty of the research is caused by the fact that the author offers to amend Part 4 of Article 225 of the Russian Federation Criminal Law Code.
