    The Fifth Discussion on the Origin of the Universe

    Get PDF
    Humans are an amalgamation of matter and spirit (Liu, 2024.8a). They are a combination of the three- dimensional universe and the zero-dimensional universe (Liu, 2024.5). Humans have two origins: the origin of the spirit and the origin of the body (Liu, "?????"). The return to the origin of the spirit is called the death of the human body; the return to the origin of the body is called the death of the flesh. Humans are computer-like materials created by the universe, and the human spirit is software installed� by the universe. The existence and survival of humans are determined by the universe and by themselves

    The Innovative Development of the IFRS17 Formulated Brighton Mahohoho Inflation-Adjusted Automated Actuarial Loss Reserving Model: Harnessing Advanced Random Forest Techniques for Enhanced Data Analytics in Fire Insurance

    Get PDF
    This paper presents the development and implementation of the IFRS17 Formulated Brighton Mahohoho Inflation-Adjusted Automated Actuarial Loss Reserving Model, lever- aging advanced Random Forest techniques to enhance data analytics in fire insurance. The methodology encompasses the simulation of synthetic fire insurance data with key variables such as claim frequency, severity, and inflation rates. Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) and data visualization techniques were employed to assess relationships and trends, aligning the model with IFRS17 compliance standards. Random Forest regression models were developed to predict claim frequency, severity, and inflation adjustments, integrating these predictions to estimate future loss reserves. Robust evaluation metrics, including Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Squared Error (MSE), and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), ensured model accuracy. Stress testing and scenario analysis were conducted to assess the model�s resilience under various conditions. Key IFRS17 metrics such as Present Value of Future Cash Flows (PVFCF), Risk Adjustments, and Contractual Ser- vice Margins (CSM) were calculated, offering a comprehensive approach to actuarial loss reserving.

    Darwin\u27s Legacy: The Peacock Paradox

    No full text
    The foundation of this paper is the generation of all life by evolution. By this as- sumption, �everything� has to be compatible with Darwin�s theory. I discuss some issues that concern animate beings. I ask some rhetorical questions. Answers are provided by speculations. I present arguments for an evolution and general thoughts. I show that some properties of animate beings are compatible with an evolution. The arguments except those in the chapter �Homosexuality� are ideas of mine. All points only are personal views. &nbsp

    Spiritual Crisis and Architecture. An Analysis from the Anthropological Structures of the Imaginary

    Get PDF
    This essay is a ponderation about the spiritual crisis that the Western world is experiencing, and its reflection in architecture. The analysis is basically based on the Anthropological Structures of the Imaginary proposed by the anthropologist Gilbert Durand, to demonstrate how architecture reflects the patterns of an exacerbated diurnal regime, where the human vital experience, the symbolism and poetics of space, and the search for meaning and depth, are transgressed by a desire of flight, detachment, immediacy, artificiality, exposure, appearance and superficiality that disengage and separate individuals and societies

    Exploring the Essence of the Universe

    Drawing from the philosophical ideas of Daoism, Buddhism, as well as modern scientific theories such as physics and cosmology, this paper explores concepts of space, time, and the universe, reflecting on their significance

    Evolution of Entering the Caste-based Untouchability System in Nepal

    Get PDF
    The early history of Nepal centers around the Kathmandu Valley, believed to have been covered by a water pond in ancient times. Over thousands of years, as the water receded, people settled here, starting with groups of migrants and cow herders known as \u27Nepa.\u27 The Gopal and Mahishapal rulers followed, associated with agricultural professions. The Kirata Period followed, marked by warrior Aryan Kiratas who ruled after defeating the Mahishapals. The origin of the Kiratas is debated, with various theories about their entry into Nepal. This period is mentioned in Hindu texts, and it\u27s believed that Kiratas might have a connection with the Ancient Indus civilization. Despite uncertainties, it\u27s agreed that Kiratas ruled Nepal after the Mahishapals. The Kirata era stood out for its egalitarian society, contrasting with later caste systems. Gautama Buddha\u27s time saw the arrival of Shakya refugees. Afterward, various groups, including Licchavi, Koli, and Malla, entered Nepal due to political changes and the rise of Magadha in India. The Lichchavi Period witnessed the development of confederations in the Terai region. Lichchavis eventually defeated the Kirata king, established a caste system, and declared themselves descendants of Surya, Raghu, and Rama. Lichchavis followed Hinduism and enforced caste divisions, leading to a societal shift. This historical journey reveals a Nepal shaped by migrations, changing rulers, and evolving societal structures. The Kirata Period stands as a unique phase of equality, while the Lichchavi Period introduced the caste system. Nepal\u27s history is a complex tapestry, showcasing diverse influences that have contributed to its rich heritage

    The 3 S\u27s of FIFA - Soft Power, Sports washing, Sports Diplomacy: The BRICS and Qatar World Cups

    Get PDF
    This article analyzes how the BRICS countries and Qatar used sporting mega-events as a discourse to expand their political influence. To this end, the article discusses (a) the public sphere and its interfaces in sports and (b) the 2010 to 2022 World Cups as examples of Soft Power, Sportswashing, and Sports Diplomacy. As an analytical structure, we will make an interface between the studies that discussed the role of the Western media during the events and FIFA\u27s 3 S\u27s. The central argument resides in FIFA\u27s 3 S\u27srole during the World Cup cycle in countries of the Global South and the existence of a FIFA modus operandi in the last four World Cups

    Psychosocial Risk Factors at Group Level and Operational Distress among Employees in Salvadoran Companies

    Get PDF
    The study of psychosocial risks at the group level and operational distress among employees in Salvadoran companies is scarcely addressed, despite the significant importance organizations place on this issue. This study aims to understand employees\u27 perceptions of these psychosocial risks and distresses through an assessment of their prevalence using the Healthy Talent Model� and HTMetrics PCAS Tool�, with the goal of proposing interventions to mitigate negative impacts. A descriptive analysis using frequency tables was conducted. The findings confirm the prevalence of occupational stress, the presence of psychosocial risks at the group level, and operational distress. Finally, various levels of intervention are proposed to address these issues in Salvadoran companies

    Eternal Formalism: about the Judicial Reform in Mexico

    Get PDF
    This study offers a critical and hermeneutic analysis of some substantial points proposed in the latest project for reforming the federal judiciary of the Mexican state. The primary focus of this project is to propose a new model for selecting judges, aimed at legitimizing its members through citizen voting, similar to certain federal entities in the United States and to the constitutional model of the state of Bolivia. However, this project overlooks some fundamental elements, such as formation (Bildung), emphasizing that legal formalism remains a cornerstone in the teaching and practice of law in Mexico. Without overcoming this, achieving a paradigm shift that improves the Mexican judicial system and brings it closer to a new vision of understanding and applying the law becomes a highly complex task to resolve
