Steve, thank you!
Yeah, I found this in cake source code

//code
/**
 * Determines whether the given user is authorized to perform an
action.  The type of
 * authorization used is based on the value of AuthComponent::
$authorize or the
 * passed $type param.
 *
 * Types:
 * 'controller' will validate against Controller::isAuthorized() if
controller instance is
 *                              passed in $object
 * 'actions' will validate Controller::action against an
AclComponent::check()
 * 'crud' will validate mapActions against an AclComponent::check()
 *              array('model'=> 'name'); will validate mapActions against model
 *              $name::isAuthorized(user, controller, mapAction)
 * 'object' will validate Controller::action against
 *              object::isAuthorized(user, controller, action)
 *
 * @param string $type Type of authorization
 * @param mixed $object object, model object, or model name
 * @param mixed $user The user to check the authorization of
 * @return boolean True if $user is authorized, otherwise false
 * @access public
 */
        function isAuthorized($type = null, $object = null, $user = null) {
//code end
There is another question, if _create action was setted -1 and others
were setted 1. What will happen?
Hope somebody can help! :-)
