The purpose of the given work is the analysis of larvae of malaria mosquitoes
stigma plates of Anopheles genus (Diptera, Culicidae). Three-dimensional photos of stigmal
plates are received from An. claviger, An. maculipennis, An. messeae, An.sacharovi,
An. superpictus. The structure of stigmal plates has been defi ned, a key for defi nition of
sibling species of An. maculipennis complex on territory of Republic of Armenia has been
developed. The analysis of stigmal plates of An. superpictus, An. maculipennis, An.
messeae, An. claviger has been made with use of geometrical morphometry methods. It
was stated that these species of malaria mosquitoes disperse well in the space of relative
deformations. An. superpictus, An. claviger and representatives of complex An. maculipennis
are well differentiated in RW1 and RW2 gradients; sibling species An. maculipennis and An.
messeae are successfully differentiated on RW1 and RW3 gradients. It was shown that the
sizes of Procrustean distances refl ect the degree of relationship between the studied malaria
mosquitoes of Anopheles genus.

The article focuses on the custom services and custom-house barriers
infrastructure in the Azov and the Black Sea region in late 18th century. The author considers
those customs services ability to ensure the necessary import and export conditions to be
one of the key factors infl uencing the trade success in this new and «young» sector. The
research conducted by the author shows that in late 18th century the development of the
customs services infrastructure in the Azov and the Black Sea region was insuffi cient. The
functioning of this regions customs services was complicated due to the insuffi cient quantity
of qualifi ed customs stuff, ineffi cient trade legislation and large amounts of smuggling.

The subject of the present article is the sign character of creolized written texts.
The author attempts to describe different types of signs on both levels of creolized texts -
verbal and iconic. Special attention is paid to the issue of interaction between the signifi er
and the signifi ed. Variability is viewed as one of the key sign characteristics seen on both
verbal and iconic levels. The author points out the necessity of further research on the sign
character of semiotically complicated texts.

The article raises some issues of referential pragmatic semantics of linguistic
notional category intensifi cation. The author makes an attempt to describe pragmatic
semantics with the help of contextual and communicative content of utterance, which shows
actual communicative quantity of information. Intensifi cation is presented as a quantitative
measure of qualitative evaluation. The defi nition of this speech phenomenon is given. The
latter is considered in its correlation with gradation. The complex system of means and ways
of gradation is also analyzed

The article deals with the notion of «secret agent» lingua-cultural type. This lingua-
cultural type possesses a certain number of characteristics and peculiarities, which are
refl ected in the novels written by I. Fleming. The analysis of Flemings novels shows that
British national world image, its components and notions are vastly represented in the text by
linguistic means. Lingua-cultural type, an absolutely new notion in cognitive linguistics, helps
us both reveal national linguistic world image, its components and avoid certain diffi culties
in the translation process.

All fi lms inevitably use abusive language as a representation of modern society.
The research in question defi nes some functions of abusive language use (emotional state,
social status, pathological swearing etc.) and its types (naming parts of human body, the
coitus process, etc.). The problems of swear words translation lie in the fact that despite the
variety of the Russian abusive vocabulary in comparison with the English one, the translation
of such English words into Russian is rather complicated (as TV series are usually watched
by children). The article presents some examples of the most commonly used English swear
words from two TV series of different genres. The author provides them with the variants of
their possible translation.

The article analyzes the most common mistakes when writing the equations of the
electrolysis of aqueous solutions of electrolytes. The mistakes under analysis are typical for
those who take the entrance test on chemistry at Moscow State Regional University, and the
tasks of Moscow region Contest on Chemistry for schoolchildren.

ble (inert) and soluble electrodes. The authors show the possible processes occurring at
the cathode and anode in the electrolysis of aqueous solutions of electrolytes. The article
describes the processes of electrolysis of solutions containing a mixture of cations. Much
attention is given to the tasks to quantify the substances released at the electrodes.

In modern Russia the Church endures the same crisis it had passed through in
XIX - the beginning of the XX-th centuries. The present moment is characterized by the

universal social-political harmony, but as the unique phenomenon of the Russian society.

The authors study the theoretical bases of socio-psychological phenomenology
as a new direction in the domestic psychology, investigating laws of occurrence, changes,
development, functioning, specifi city of manifestation and interrelation of business and interpersonal
information phenomena. It is shown that the philosophical analysis of socially-psychological
phenomenology demands overcoming the formal-logic thinking unilaterality which
separates the concrete from the abstract, as well as the opposite properties and qualities of
real objects refl ected in persons consciousness. The article states that communication phenomenon
becomes a peculiar socio-psychological phenomenon relating communication as
a system. Consequently, any scientifi c knowledge about the phenomenon of communication
becomes primarily certain knowledge, because it formulates concrete concepts, categories,
and patterns. Moreover, in this case the concept concreteness does not deny its content
abstractness, despite contradictory statements that, on the one hand, the truth always has
concreteness, on the other hand, that the theory gives abstract knowledge.

The subject of the article is evidential subjective modality and its correlations with
other semantic categories: personality, subjectivity and others. The author describes the
linguistic means with which evidential subjective modality is refl ected in modern Russian.

modal phraseological units and conjunctions. The author states that evidential subjective
modality is important in debates, polemics and scientifi c discourse.

The article presents the formulae for transverse electric conductivity and dielectric
permeability in quantum collisional plasma. The kinetic equation in momentum space in
relaxation approaching with constant collision frequency for derivation of these formulae is
used. It is shown, that when Plancks constant tends to zero the deduced formula passes
in the corresponding formula for classical plasma. It is shown also, that when frequency of
collisions of particles of plasma tends to zero (i.e. plasma passes in collisionless plasma),
the formula for electric conductivity passes in the well-known Lindhards formula.

Forest fi res accompany mankind throughout its history. They cause extensive
damage to landscape areas, human settlements and cities. Causes of forest fi res are varied
and one of them is spontaneous combustion of marsh gas, which includes methane and
other fl ammable compounds. An experiment was conducted to assess the potential fi re
hazard of different districts of Moscow region (Shatura, Taldom, Odintsovo and Domodedovo
districts). The marsh gas samples were analyzed in gas chromatograph Kristallux-4000m.

strategy formation at an industrial organization. The article analyses in detail the main stages
of the process mentioned: the formulation of a career mission; the revelation of a career
position, the competitor analysis, the coordination between the employees career potential
and the companys interests; the career strategy formulation, the implementation of the
strategic plan.
It should be borne in mind that the strategic planning process should be monitored and
corrected by the senior management.

The author considers the acute problems of the current legislation in the sphere
of the construction contracts legal regulation. The property rights are the object of the
relations arising from the construction contract conclusion. These benefi ts are sorted out
into a separate group on the basis of them having property character: as the result of the

construction contract was introduced into the Russian legislation system. The article
