Abstract:
The article discusses the heavy and special weapons of the Russian army during the Caucasian war across the territory of Black Sea coastline. By heavy equipment is meant all kinds of artillery systems which were used in the fortresses at that time. The particular importance is given to the special weapons, which include the minefields (mines and fougasses). It is proved that the mines on the galvanic elements were used not only in the navy but also for the needs of the ground forces. The authors came to the conclusion that the technical superiority of the Russian army became one of the main reasons for defeat of the highlanders in the war.

Abstract:
The research aimed to explore the effect of a new technological development, Mobile Remittance, on the profitability of Pakistani banks. For this purpose five bank’s data have been chosen over the period of 5 years, i.e., from 2009-2013. Return on Assets is used as the proxy for measuring bank profitability. The empirical result of this study show that mobile remittances, off-balance sheet activities and capital adequacy ratio have a positive coefficient which indicates that these variables play an important role to increase banks profitability. The credit risk has a negative coefficient that shows that increase in the ratio of credit risk decreases the bank's performance.
