Drunk and belligerent, journalist, ex-flair bartender and former porn actor, Hugh Mungus, traverses the highways of America in search of the unexplained.
Armed with an endless supply of bourbon, Hugh hunts for the secret to immortality, tests out a gravity defying staircase, digs for interred aliens and quests to uncover a race of giant humans.
If you've ever wondered where the purported haunted houses are, or how to reach the nearest UFO landing site, let Destinations Across Paranormal America help you get there.
A tenuous epidermis covers reality. Above the surface, we tell ourselves what we experience is valid. Below this thin skin, awaits truth.
Cookie cutter houses on neatly-ordered streets — which look the same, because they are the same. Still, we pretend we're being unique.
Soldiers who profess individuality, yet have identical haircuts, wear matching clothes and march in lockstep.
Humans on Earth exist in Delusionville, unaware they've no idea what reality is.

What's to Stop an Atheist From Lying on the Witness Stand?hughmungus
Was the Great Emancipator — Abraham Lincoln — a racist? Does the god of the Old Testament demand his devotees murder, rape and steal? Is it possible the United States has nuked itself?
These questions, and more, become fair game for What’s to Stop an Atheist From Lying on the Witness Stand? — a publication that strives for truth.
How comforting is it to learn the Father of the U.S. Space Program was a Nazi war criminal? Do you giggle with excitement knowing a giant asteroid is headed toward Earth, while you read this?
Reality is rarely what we’re led to believe. Let the pages herein be proof of that.

A study of the productivity, financial viability and multifunctional benefits of small farmers (20ha and less) by Rebecca Laughton . Presented at CCRI 26th Jan 2017.
Representatives of the International Rice Research Institute and the CGIAR Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security gave this presentation on applying and scaling up Alternate Wetting and Drying for paddy rice in Vietnam.
The proposed project is off-season vegetable farming unit, spreading over a land area of 7.5 acres in Tehsil Klor Kot Zilla Bhakar. Off-season vegetables are proposed to be cultivated in this project using tunnel technology. The three vegetables assumed to be cultivated in this particular project are watermelon, melon and pumpkin. There is great demand of vegetables all year round and the price is high at the start of the season and at the end of the season. If modern techniques are applied to grow off season vegetable, high prices can be fetched. Using tunnel technology, in which temperature and moisture is controlled for specific growth of vegetables. As the landholding power of farmers is decreasing, they need to increase the productivity of their available land, off-season vegetable farming is a measure through which they can attain higher profit margins from the crop. Tunnel farming is gaining popularity, and being practiced in different areas of Punjab like, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Okara, Sahiwal. The total initial cost for setting up the low tunnel farm is estimated at Rs. 1.338 million. The legal business status of this project is proposed as Partnership. The estimated yield potential of the farm varies according to the selected type of vegetable. The proposed vegetable mix is watermelon, melon and pumpkin each cultivated on 2.5 acres of land. The quantity of seeds sown each year on 7.5 acres of land is 750 grams watermelon seeds, 1,000 grams of muskmelon seeds and 2,000 grams of pumpkin seeds. The estimated produce would be 51 tones of watermelon, 53 tones melon and 38 tones of pumpkin excluding 15% wastage.

ZGB - The Role of Generative AI in Government transformation.pdfSaeed Al Dhaheri
This keynote was presented during the the 7th edition of the UAE Hackathon 2024. It highlights the role of AI and Generative AI in addressing government transformation to achieve zero government bureaucracy
This session provides a comprehensive overview of the latest updates to the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (commonly known as the Uniform Guidance) outlined in the 2 CFR 200.
With a focus on the 2024 revisions issued by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), participants will gain insight into the key changes affecting federal grant recipients. The session will delve into critical regulatory updates, providing attendees with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate and comply with the evolving landscape of federal grant management.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the rationale behind the 2024 updates to the Uniform Guidance outlined in 2 CFR 200, and their implications for federal grant recipients.
- Identify the key changes and revisions introduced by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in the 2024 edition of 2 CFR 200.
- Gain proficiency in applying the updated regulations to ensure compliance with federal grant requirements and avoid potential audit findings.
- Develop strategies for effectively implementing the new guidelines within the grant management processes of their respective organizations, fostering efficiency and accountability in federal grant administration.

2. OFT on Cluster bean
Effect of sulpher levels on yield of Cluster bean (Assessment)
Application of 20 kg S per hectare increased the seed yield of cluster bean by 18.92 per cent
over control and gave highest net profit and B:C ratio followed by the application of 40 kg S
per hectare highest net profit and B:C ratio. However, the successive increase in S up to 40
kg S per hectare recorded higher seed yields of cluster bean.
