In our paper we present a corpus of transcribed Lithuanian parliamentary speeches. The corpus is prepared in a specific format, appropriate for different authorship identification tasks. The corpus consists of approximately 111 thousand texts (24 million words). Each text matches one parliamentary speech produced during an ordinary session from the period of 7 parliamentary terms starting on March 10, 1990 and ending on December 23, 2013. The texts are grouped into 147 categories corresponding to individual authors, therefore they can be used for authorship attribution tasks; besides, these texts are also grouped according to age, gender and political views, therefore they are also suitable for author profiling tasks. Whereas short texts complicate recognition of author speaking style and are ambiguous in relation to the style of other authors, we incorporated only texts containing not less than 100 words into the corpus. In order to make each category as comprehensive and representative as possible, we included only those authors, who produced speeches at least 200 times. All the texts are lemmatized, morphologically and syntactically annotated, tokenized into the character n-grams. The statistical information of the corpus is also available. We have also demonstrated that the created corpus can be effectively used in authorship attribution and author profiling tasks with supervised machine learning methods. The corpus structure also allows using it with unsupervised machine learning methods and can be used for creation of rule-based methods, as well as in different linguistic analyses.

Furthermore, in order to find out the possible obstacles for the proposal to apply criminal liability for the attempts with dolus eventualis, related norms of the Penal Code as well as the opinions of the researchers of criminal law are analysed. The analysis of Article 22 of the Lithuanian Penal Code shows that the text of the Penal Code does not preclude criminal liability for an attempt with dolus eventualis. What is more, the analysis of the theoretical discussion of the pro and contra views regarding the criminalisation of an attempt with dolus eventualis allows to conclude that dolus eventualis is compatible with the concept of attempt. Consequently, the author ascertains that there are no formal (dogmatic) reasons to object to the criminal liability for an attempt with dolus eventualis. He indicates that the discussion is of penal-political nature. The author concludes that because of the high dangerousness of the crimes committed with dolus eventualis, it is more politicaly reasonable to qualify such crimes according to the rules that are applied for intentional crimes (and, consequently, punish attempts) than to qualify them similarly to negligent crimes (and leave attempts unpunished).

Italian historian Sebastiano Ciampi, has spent 22 years investigating the Italian and Polish communications history. This is the first professional historian, as the Italian witch collected and posted information related to the subject. To inform the public about his findings an to commemorate it in the beggining of XIXth centyry he published fuor books and Tritoma , that are not available to the public and often not even aware of them. And though the author has worked on behalf of the Polish government and sought information about its citizens, but as Lithuanian and Polish history are inseparable, among the collected data there are some news about Lithuania as well. So the main purpose of this research is to look what kind of information about the Lithuania in the XVI-XIX centuries, the author has detected in his studies, and to look what is his contribution to the Northern Italian and Lithuanian history of communication studies. So the work starts with the looking at the author's personality and his life, then it goes to the information, the author has found, about the italians in Lithuania and lithuanians in Italy, with the presentations of the material that S. Ciampi detected, with gives us the opportunity to lead to conclusions of the guests that visited Lithuania, their work in this country and the contibution to the Lithianian art. Later, fifteen letters are discussed. Letters, that were written in diferent periods and are published in these books, that directy or no concerns Lithuania, or lithuanians, that were involved in some events.Finally, different messages and announcements are discussed, and stories relating to the subject. The final section presents conclusions that answers the fundamental question of this work: what is S. Ciampi's contribution to the Northern Italian and Lithuanian history of communication studies- he brought the unknown names of italian artists, doctors in Lituania into the scientific circulation, gave an oppotunity to look, through the published letters, what interested the Italian rulers about our country in different times.

This work is of theoretical and practical importance, that is, generation of new knowledge associated with mobile commerce adoption in terms of security concerns and trust which will help not only future researchers but also e-businesses. Despite the fact researchers have examined the adoption of m-commerce in a holistic way, the author found there was no research focusing solely and in-depth on the determinants of trust and perceived risk. The problem was to examine how the above determinants affect the intention to adopt m-commerce. The objects are mobile commerce, security concerns and trust. The purpose of this study is twofold, namely, empirical and explanatory. As for the objectives, it was necessary to review the literature, propose a research model, analyze the results, and verify or reject the proposed hypotheses. When it comes to the hypotheses, there was a test on whether trust, perceived risk, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use negatively or positively affect the constructs of the proposed model. The author used theoretical and empirical collection methods. As for the theoretical ones, analogy, generalization and modeling methods were used. Concerning the empirical ones, due to the fact that quantitative approach was chosen, a survey instrument, that is, questionnaire was used. After the results had been collected, SPSS 22 was used to perform descriptive data analysis of Likert summative scales. At last, the results along with the research limitations were discussed. The final outcome of this study was to confirm all the proposed hypotheses. As for the conclusions, the perception of risk in terms of privacy, m-payments, m-commerce legislation and quality of delivered products has negative effect in the intention to use mobile commerce. Additionally, trust elements such as good reputation, enticing promises, good encryption security and transparency, reduce the perception of risk and increase the intention to use m-commerce. Also, the availability of policies that are easy to understand and find, has positive effect in the intention to use m-commerce. Last, but not least, when customers feel free of risks and have high level of trust in the intention to use mobile commerce they actually adopt it.
