WTFotD: Not a place of honor

What do you do when you need to store some nuclear waste that will be toxic for the next 10,000 years? Of course, you bury it underground, then form a committee to draft an awkwardly worded warning for future generations. Here's what they came up with:

This place is not a place of honor.
No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here.
Nothing valued is here.
This place is a message and part of a system of messages.
Pay attention to it!
Sending this message was important to us.
We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture.

WTF?

Office Olympics - Event 8: Name Plate Marathon

Round 1: One at a time, grab a name plate out of a bag and run to put it on the correct office wall.
Round 2: Decipher scrambled names stuck to an office wall, and place the correct name plates under them.

My team got silver! Julie rocked the second round but got a bad luck of the draw in the first round. Still in third!
