Congregational Religious Trusts in Victoria's Churches of Christ
Authors: Goodwin David , Reynolds Paul
Published: October 2023

The leaders of 21st Century church organisations face the challenge of how to revitalise and rationalise their property holdings for contemporary usage while simultaneously respecting the history and sensibilities of congregations. In an increasingly secular society, many congregations have dwindling memberships and are no longer financially viable. The real estate portfolios amassed by Christian church movements and denominations, scattered around the metropolitan areas and country towns of Australia at prominent locations on main streets, are massively valuable. But who ‘owns’ the properties of churches in a religious denomination? Do the organising bodies of movements have the power to divest particular congregations of their church properties in service of the broader movement? These are questions that arouse passions and that have real contemporary significance for the 'business' of church. Answers differ depending on the characterisation of a church movement as hierarchical, presbyterian, or congregational. This article examines these questions by focusing on the case of the Churches of Christ in Victoria, a congregational movement whose properties are generally held under a variety of forms of trust. Relevant case law is reviewed. The implications of the history of the movement and its foundational principle of congregational autonomy are explained.

Published: October 2023

La financiación de la educación siempre ha estado impregnada por movimientos que inducen inversiones en el desarrollo de la educación pública. En cuanto a la educación integral, la financiación es sumamente relevante para la expansión de espacios y tiempos de aprendizaje, con miras a la inclusión de las materias que experimentan la dinámica educativa y que, por medio de esta, alcanzan la inclusión social y el acceso a la formación humana, sin dejar de lado la búsqueda de la integración del conocimiento. Así, este artículo es el resultado de un ensayo académico que buscaba reflejar las siguientes preguntas: ¿Cómo es la financiación para la Educación Integral? ¿Garantizan la especificidad de las prácticas docentes que se refieren a la integridad de la asignatura? ¿Con qué recursos financieros, humanos y materiales podemos contar para realizar una educación completa de la materia? Para ello, abordamos la comprensión de la educación plena basada en las ideas de Anísio Teixeira y Edgar Morin y, posteriormente, discutimos las políticas públicas que financian la educación en Brasil, sobre la base, en particular, de un análisis sobre el Fondo para el Desarrollo de la Educación Básica y la Valoración de los Profesionales de la Educación - FUNDEB. Contrariamente a la comprensión y la concepción de la educación presentada por los autores mencionados, la financiación de la educación pública brasileña no es tal que cubra todas las demandas y necesidades derivadas del proceso educativo desde la perspectiva de la integridad. En tiempos de ataques a la democracia y a los derechos sociales, necesitamos entender la realidad en la que estamos comprometidos y seguir movilizando esfuerzos en la búsqueda de financiamiento que brinde una educación emancipadora con calidad social.

The theoretical study of voluntary beliefs
Authors: Liu Liying
Published: October 2023

Beliefs reinforce people's perception of right and wrong to provide behavioral guidance. But is our faith voluntary? Therefore, it is necessary to understand whether these beliefs can be determined by our conscious choices. To shed light on this debate, this paper will explain why people's beliefs are involuntary mainly by examining the relevant literature in biological, social, and cultural psychology and exploring the importance of science and education in helping individuals develop new beliefs in line with modern ethics. By exploring and understanding the underlying mechanisms that influence our belief system, people's beliefs can become more rational and more in line with the modern world. This requires the guidance of the government to make people return to rationality. Therefore, I believe that the government should call for social projects that follow modern ethical guidelines. These programs can give people awareness of protecting the environment and raising equality. By doing so, humans can be more adapted to embrace the beliefs of diversity, inclusion and equity.
Psychoanalytic Interpretation of Crime and Punishment

As a masterpiece of Dostoevsky’s psychological novels, Crime and Punishment tells the story of Raskolnikov, a college student, who committed a crime because of the opposition between reality and ideal, and then was punished, understood, and atoned for his sins. Attempting to analyze the process of Raskolnikov’s “crime” and “punishment” through the psychoanalytic theory put forward by Freud in Ego & Id, this thesis aims to provide a better interpretation of the theme of “crime and punishment”.
Unveiling the Illusion: Exploring the Voluntary Nature of Belief
Authors: Zhou Shiyuan
Published: October 2023

Belief is a complex aspect of human cognition that shapes our understanding of the world and influences our behavior. This paper examines the voluntary nature of belief, with a focus on religion as an illustrative example. By examining voluntarism, non-voluntarism, and free will in the context of religious belief, this paper delves into the intricate relationship between the freedom to believe and external factors, including civil liberties and social norms. While belief is often considered a matter of personal choice, socialization, cultural environment, and personal circumstances can significantly influence and limit the voluntariness of belief. By acknowledging that the voluntary nature of belief is susceptible to external influences, society can work towards fostering genuine freedom of religious belief and supporting individual autonomy in diverse belief landscapes. This commitment to fostering genuine freedom of belief contributes to a more inclusive and tolerant society that values the autonomy and agency of its members.
The happiness is Unmeasurable
Authors: Zu Tianyou
Published: October 2023

People have been investigating and pursuing the true meaning of happiness and been on a persistent quest for a happy life since the dawn of time. However, the answer to happiness is not a multiple-choice question but an open-ended test, so there is no standard answer or exact value. This paper will demonstrate that happiness is not measurable in terms of the conceptual construction of happiness test and the 'inconsistency' of the test results and will also focus on the future development of happiness measurements.
Exploring Continuity and Change: Personal Identity Formation from Childhood to Adulthood
Authors: Hu Miao
Published: October 2023

Individuals' initial conceptualizations of the world are typically formed during their childhood years, a period whose influence is notably enduring. This fundamental understanding tends to reach maturation during adolescence, though it remains subject to continuous evolution and reshaping throughout adulthood, influenced by a myriad of personal experiences. The complex interplay of continuity and change in identity formation underscores the multifaceted and dynamic nature of personal identity. This recognition can enhance nuanced understanding of self and others, potentially enriching interpersonal relationships, self-development, and overall life satisfaction. By appreciating the intricate perspectives, maintaining a stable core identity and accommodating the potential for change, individuals can better navigate the complexities of life. This equilibrium provides a crucial framework for individuals to forge their unique life paths, while adjusting to various special expectations and personal growth stages.
Study on the mechanism of rural education for income generation of poor households
Authors: Qin Zhuofan
Published: October 2023

Since the poverty eradication campaign in 2013, from education for poverty alleviation to the talent revitalization strategy, education has played an important role in helping poor families pint out of their plight and promoting family income generation. This study compares the income-enhancing effects of rural vocational education and basic education through the literature review method and comparative analysis method, and draws the following conclusions: (1) Vocational education is an educational tool centered on skills training, which enhances market competitiveness and obtains non-farm income by directly improving the quality of laborers, expanding the breadth of their employment, as well as improving their ability to use resources. (2) Basic education is a means of education centered on the cultivation of viable abilities, which improves social status and income by increasing the accumulation of human capital and improving viable abilities, and breaks through the limitations of social structures such as household registration restrictions. (3) In terms of quantitative relationships, education and income are not simply linear, and education for rural household growth requires certain preconditions. The income-enhancing effect of vocational education on rural families is not significantly higher or lower than that of compulsory education.
On the judicial application of United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods in China
Authors: Chen Kai
Published: October 2023

Under the background of economic globalization and the increasing and in-depth trade among countries, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG), which was implemented in 1988, has become the most important international uniform law to regulate international trade conflicts. In recent years, with the continuous improvement of globalization, CISG has been widely applied in the judicial practice of various countries. But as a result of the treaty is a compromise between different countries, the adjustment principle, causes in the judicial practice there are some limitations. This situation means that although the Treaty is applicable to many countries, each country may have different standards and interpretations. Although China is a party to the CISG, it was only after China became the world's second largest economy that the convention really received attention in academia. But the new civil code of the international treaty to make no rules. Although the Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Cases concerning International Sale of Goods issued by the Supreme People's Court in 1987 can be applied in judicial practice, the lack of specific provisions has led to different judgments by different courts and arbitration bodies. The Supreme People's Court on the international sale of goods cases to explain some issues of applicable law in the regulation of content is extremely limited, unable to cope with the complexity of case treatment, there is no specific steps to perform the convention provides guidance. Against this background, this article discusses the judicial application of the CISG in China, and offers suggestions and recommendations based on the study of the Convention and its practical application.

The traditional understanding of fiber art includes the use of materials and techniques that have fiber properties. However, materials have always been subordinate, passive, and at the service of the work. In contemporary fiber art, the use of materials is so widespread that it has long undermined the traditional perception of fiber. The different textures and textures of the material, as well as its different structures, are gradually being discovered during the creative process. This paper focuses on the expression of fiber art materials as well as the uniqueness and difference of the texture language of contemporary fiber art at the level of the combination of material texture and technology Fiber art is a unique combination of material texture, technology and craftsmanship, and the different ways of creating and expressing texture in fiber art have been discussed and analyzed in depth.
Research on measuring happiness
Authors: Deng Yiling
Published: October 2023

People have been exploring happiness through various "tools", "processes" and "objects" to uncover the mystery of happiness. But few people have measured happiness quantitatively. In this article, I will analyze the reasons why happiness cannot be measured from the perspective of the "tools", "processes" and "objects" of happiness measurement, and highlight the shortcomings of current happiness measurement. I hope this study will help us identify the barriers we need to overcome when measuring happiness. Of course, there are a number of limitations in this paper, such as the lack of discussion of happiness measurement from a cognitive neuroscience perspective and the lack of discussion of the use of multiple methods to measure happiness (the combination of daily reconstruction and glucocorticoid testing, etc.). Although happiness cannot yet be measured, it is clearly something we value very much and it is worth our effort to learn more about it.

Authors: Yuan Xiaoshu
Published: October 2023

ESG transformation is profoundly changing corporate goals and business logic, improving the growth potential of enterprises. This article selects data from Chinese A-share listed companies from 2011 to 2021 as research samples to empirically test the impact of ESG rating on enterprise growth and its impact mechanism. Research has found that ESG rating can significantly enhance the growth of enterprises. Meanwhile, the impact of ESG rating on enterprise growth exhibits heterogeneity in different types of enterprises and regions with different degrees of marketization. From the perspective of impact mechanism, ESG rating can promote high-quality development of enterprises and improve enterprise growth by improving financial flexibility and alleviating financing constraints. This article provides relevant theoretical evidence for the practice of implementing the ESG rating in enterprises and it has important practical guiding significance for the government to formulate enterprise information disclosure and ESG evaluation systems, as well as for China to further promote high-quality transformation and growth of the macro economy.

The Double-edged Impact and Solution of Emission Trading Scheme: Perspective from China
Authors: Gong Zixi
Published: October 2023

Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) is widely used for carbon emission globally, but there are few comprehensive studies about the debate of the impact of ETS. This paper presents new evidence of the double-edged impact and solution of Emission Trading Scheme by conducting qualitative methods like literature review to overcome the debate. Using evidence from China, it is found that the positive impact of ETS includes emission reduction, technological innovation and cheaper cost for emission reduction; the negative impact includes loss of GDP, carbon leakage and price bubble. In light of the findings, the negative impact of ETS could be overwhelmed by related policies like extending the coverage of areas and industries, combing ETS with a package of other related intervention and the supply of carbon tax.

Power Load Forecasting System Based on Deep Hybrid Learning Model
Authors: Dong Shangyichen
Published: October 2023

Accurate prediction of electricity demand is crucial to ensure the stability and dependability of local power grids. Numerous scholars have put forth comprehensive prediction systems; However, the majority of these models fail to capture the inherent global features present within the data. This study introduces a novel integrated prediction system that leverages the synergistic capabilities of Time Convolutional Network (TCN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) architectures, aiming to enhance the accuracy of short-term electric load forecasting. The initial step is to establish separate prediction models for LSTM and TCN, with a focus on electric load data. After combining the output results of these models, the reciprocal of the error square ratio was used as a weighting factor. By using this approach, the LSTM-TCN model for combined prediction is created. This research paper performs an exhaustive examination of the case study by employing authentic data sourced from the Australian Energy Management Authority. The study's findings support that the LSTM-TCN model outperforms both single prediction models and traditional network models in terms of performance. The results indicate that the LSTM-TCN model exhibits greater accuracy in predicting short-term energy demand.

Published: October 2023

A espécie florestal Myrocarpus frondosus Allemão (Fabaceae), conhecida vulgarmente por Cabreúva, é bastante difundida no estado do Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil, pela importância econômica e ecológica. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o crescimento de mudas de M. frondosus submetidas à diferentes níveis de sombreamento e estabelecer condições ideais de luminosidade para o crescimento inicial da espécie. O trabalho foi conduzido em casa de vegetação com quatro tratamentos: 0% (pleno sol) e 30%, 50% e 70% de sombreamento, os quais foram propiciados por sombrites. Cada tratamento teve 15 repetições composta por uma planta. Realizou-se avaliações periódicas de crescimento e biomassa as quais se estenderam por dezessete meses. De cada tratamento foram coletadas cinco plantas nos intervalos de seis, onze e dezessete meses após a instalação do experimento para a mensuração da área foliar (AF); área foliar específica (AFE); massa seca de folhas (MSF); massa seca de raiz (MSR); volume de raiz (VolR), massa seca total (MST) e massa seca do caule (MSC), realizadas por método destrutivo. Durante esse intervalo, avaliou-se mensalmente a altura da planta (h), diâmetro do caule (d) e o número de folhas (NF). Os dados foram analisados por análise de variância em delineamento inteiramente casualizado, quando detectadas diferença entre os tratamentos aplicou-se o Teste de Tukey, (α = 0,05). Para NF as maiores médias ocorreram durante as estações com maior período de luz e nos tratamentos com maior luminosidade e as menores médias nas estações com menos luz e nos tratamentos de luminosidade restrita. Na AF o tratamento de 70% apresentou a maior média, diferindo do tratamento 0%, que apresentou menor média. Em AFE não houve diferenças entre os tratamentos. Os níveis de sombra combinados com a luminosidade do ambiente melhoram o crescimento das plantas nas estações com maior período de luminosidade. O crescimento das plantas foi sensível às variações climáticas de cada estação. As plantas de M. frondosus ajustaram suas estruturas aos ambientes que foram inseridas e de acordo com a sazonalidade para garantir sua sobrevivência, podendo-se recomendar que esta espécie seja implantada no enriquecimento de capoeira, intercalando-as com outras espécies que lhes proporcione sombreamento e microclima, permitindo assim sua adaptação e consequentemente crescimento sadio no campo.

Drumstick (Moringa oleifera L.) is a tropical plant with wider adaptability to drought and different agro-climatic conditions. The different plant parts including leaves, fruits, flowers and immature pods are used throughout the world for various purposes due to their high nutritive value. The 34 genetic resources of drumstick along with Thar Harsha variety were investigated in this study during 2019–2021 on quality parameters at ICAR-Central Horticultural Experiment Station, Panchmahals, Vadodara, Gujarat. Results showed that the percentage of dry matter and moisture content ranged from 10.86 to 17.98 and 83.08 to 89.14 (pod), 8.16 to 14.80 and 83.40 to 93.38 (pulp), 16.00 to 22.80 and 72.20 to 84.00 (skin) and 24.62 to 30.54 and 69.46 to 75.38 (leaves), respectively. The total phenolic (TP) content (mg GAE/100 g) in pod (26.36– 39.90), pulp (151.54–232.70), rind (73.37–169.06) and leaves (448.21–970.16) were recorded. The pod, pulp and leaf of CHES D-40 accession recorded the highest TP content. While, the rind of CHES D-42 accession recorded the maximum TP content. Similarly, leaves and pods of CHES D-40 showed the highest vitamin C. In 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) assay, the antioxidant activity of M. oleifera accessions leaves varied from 14.83 to 31.29 µmol TE/g. In all nutrient contents of the M. oleifera accession dry leaf powder was quantified with wide variation. The accession CHES D-40 recorded the highest N, K, Ca, S, and Fe in leaves, whereas, P and Cu in CHES D-42, Mg and Zn in CHES D-34 leaves. The protein varied from 21.58 to 29.87 g/100 g in leaves, while in pod, 13.00 to 18.00 g/100 g. These results revealed that the potentiality of M. oleifera leaves in context to antioxidants and nutrients can be included in diets to supplement our daily nutrient needs.

The study suggests that in chickpea higher WCI, HEI and lower WI were noticed with the application of pendimethalin + imazethapyr 1.0 kg/ha as PE fb MW at 30 DAS. Although the application of topramezone @25.2 g/ha as PoE fb MW at 40 DAS (T5) resulted in higher WCI and lesser weed dry weight at both 60 and 90 DAS, the residual effect of this treatment was evident on the succeeding crops. Thus, standardization of the dose of topramezone for chickpea without any phytotoxic effect on the succeeding crops would pave the way for effective weed management in a cropping system mode.

A field experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) seasons of 2021–22 and 2022–23 at the research farm of Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi to find out the suitable cropping system with optimum row ratio and nutrient management practice in Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern.] + chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) intercropping system. Cropping systems i.e. mustard sole; chickpea sole; mustard + chickpea 2:5; mustard + chickpea 5:2 was taken as main plots. Nutrient management practices i.e. control; 60 kg Nitrogen/ha; 20 kg Nitrogen through farmyard manure + leaf manure; 20 kg Nitrogen through farmyard manure + leaf manure + microbial consortia were taken as sub-plots to attain a higher degree of precision. It was observed that though the crop yields of individual crops of mustard and chickpea were the highest in sole crop, but yield of intercropping system in terms of mustard equivalent yield was found to be the highest for mustard + chickpea 5:2 row ratio. Yields of both mustard and chickpea were observed to be the highest in the plots treated with combination of organic manures and microbial consortia i.e. 20 kg nitrogen through farmyard manure + leaf manure @4 t/ha + microbial consortia. Highest gross returns, net returns and benefit-cost ratio were found in mustard + chickpea 5:2 row ratio. Analysis of intercropping indices revealed the highest intercropping advantage in mustard + chickpea 5:2 row ratio when treated with organic manures and microbial consortia. Intercropping systems had land equivalent ratio more than unity, depicting advantage. Aggressivity values showed mustard crop was dominant over chickpea.

The financial performance of agricultural has been declining to recent time where most of the agricultural firms reported deficits in their income statement, following the dwindling revenues, firms are in a deep financial crisis that can possibly lead some of them to a halt. Proper cash management is essential for any organizational survival. This is because an institutions’ inability to identify relevant cash management practices can be its source of inability to perform. The general objective of this study was to determine the effect of cash management on financial performance of listed agricultural firms in Nigeria. The study employed an ex-post facto research design. The study population was five (5) listed agricultural firms on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX). A sample size of five (5) agricultural firms was used using a census sampling technique covering ten financial years (2012 to 2021). The data used in this study were secondary sourced from annual reports and statement of accounts of the selected firms between 2012 and 2021. The method of data analysis is descriptive statistic, unit root test, diagnostics test and panel ordinary least square (OLS) with the help of E-view v12. The findings showed that there is a significant effect of cash and cash equivalent on return on assets, there is no significant effect of cash turnover on return on assets, there is no significant effect of cash and cash equivalent on return on equity and there is no significant effect of cash turnover on return on equity of listed agricultural firms in Nigeria. It was suggested amongst others that given that cash and cash equivalent were found to enhance return on assets as a measure of financial performance of agricultural firms, this study therefore recommends for continuous embracement of these cash and cash equivalent by agricultural firms in Nigeria.
