Spooky.

This IP shows up as belonging to the CIA's IT Procurement office. Very interesting, however it's probably meaningless. It just some guy using one one of the open systems there who was surfing the web.

There is nothing spooky to see here. Remember that the CIA can't do domestic surveillance and if they really wanted to monitor this blog you wouldn't know they had been watching.

Spooky? I think not. Maybe someone at the CIA was trying to find out from the blog how things are going at LLNL since they can't get any honest answers from LLNS-LLC management.

No body cares about what's going on at LLNL and certainly no one is coming to the LLNL blog for vital and up to date information. LLNL and everyone associated with it knows in the near future most all activities at LLNL will be unclassified and certainly no more interesting than what's happening in the private world where they actually make a product for sale. LLNL will NEVER be of any value again to the nation and NIF certainly will find itself out of business a few years after operation due to shot cost, maintenance and repairs. That being said my advise to anyone near retirement is hang in their as long as you can but for those who have decades to go before being eligible for social security, I'd say use this time to find a better place for long term employment elsewhere.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
