What Do You Want
The document discusses various amenities employees may want from their company such as a nice parking spot, company car, flexible work practices, entertainment areas, ergonomic meeting rooms, and communal spaces. However, it concludes by telling employees to stop dreaming and appreciate what they already have, and to get back to work.
Library2.0
This document discusses the origins and evolution of the concept of Library 2.0. It explores how the concept emerged from discussions of Web 2.0 and the challenges of applying Web 2.0 principles to libraries given differences in how libraries and the web function. The document also reports on a survey of French information professionals that found perceptions of Library 2.0 varied but implementation has yet to fully realize the concept. It concludes that libraries must continue adapting to new technologies and paradigms while maintaining traditional functions.
The Jaguar and the Deer
1) A deer and jaguar both chose the same spot to build a house and unwittingly helped each other with construction.
2) They realized they were living together and agreed to do so, but the deer feared being eaten by the jaguar.
3) The deer tricked a bull into killing the jaguar, then told the other jaguar they should eat what he caught. Both fled in fear, deciding to part ways.
Story of the Peace Pipe
Two young men come across a beautiful woman emerging from a ravine. One wants to take her as his wife, but the other thinks she may be holy. She presents them with a peace pipe, explaining that it will bring peaceful thoughts and should be used in treaties and ceremonies. She demonstrates its power by transforming into a buffalo and back. She gives the pipe to the village medicine men and instructs them on its proper use before transforming back into a buffalo and leaving.
Sometimes Do You Feel
The document is a collection of quotes from various public figures that are unintentionally humorous due to errors in language, logic, or context. Some examples provided include Miss Alabama's rambling response about immortality, Mariah Carey's comments about starving children that focus on her own appearance, and Al Gore's statement about pollution and impurities being the cause of environmental harm. The document is meant to make the reader feel smarter by highlighting amusing mistakes and blunders in the quotes of celebrities, politicians, and other prominent individuals.

Visible Paths: Tracing the Development of an Online Tutoring Program
This document outlines the development of an online English tutoring program from its origins in 1996 using email and forums to the implementation of an online tutoring program in 2001. It discusses researching available technologies, developing training for tutors, and implementing tutoring to address issues like lower retention and success rates for students who couldn't visit campus. A VCCS grant supported a plan to identify technologies, evaluate options, determine best practices, and develop tutor training before launching online tutoring services.
The Turtle and the Sky Bowl
Turtle was responsible for bringing the Sky Bowl filled with corn to the cliff top each morning to summon the Sun. However, one morning the bowl was missing, with only a feather from Vulture left behind. Turtle set out to retrieve the bowl from Vulture's nest high in the crags, but Grizzly, Eagle, and others refused to help her. After sitting by a stream and admiring the Moon's reflection, Turtle gained a hard shell from the Moon. With her new shell, she confronted Vulture and managed to get the bowl back when Vulture attacked and his beak bent on her shell, causing him to drop the bowl.

Why women live longer than men 2
This document discusses the results of a contest on why women live longer than men. It lists the 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd, and 2nd place entries for the contest before revealing the winner and a close runner up.
Apache: The Origin of Fire
Fox tricks the fireflies to steal fire for the world. He attaches wings and flies with geese to the firefly village where a fire constantly burns. Fox lights bark on his tail from the fire and the cedar tree helps him escape over the wall. As he runs, the sparks from his tail spread fire everywhere. The fireflies chase Fox but cannot take the fire back, and this is how fire came to the world and the Apache people learned to use it.
Ghosts
This document presents several photographs claimed to show ghosts or supernatural phenomena. Three of the photos show unexplained figures appearing alongside living people or in the background of family photos. Another photo shows an unidentified figure in some caves where a man was later found dismembered. The document suggests these photos provide evidence of ghosts or supernatural occurrences.
The Skunk and the Rabbit
A skunk who had no friends went into the mountains to look for a friend. He met a rabbit and they agreed to be friends, but the rabbit was worried because the skunk couldn't run as fast. The skunk said he had a weapon under his tail to protect them. Later, when a coyote threatened the rabbit, the skunk scared the coyote away by using his smell. The coyote found them again and the skunk tried to use his smell again but was out of ammunition, so the coyote captured the rabbit.
