A vote of no-confidence in "Livermites!"

That is what they calls us at LANL!

What our friends at LANL are saying

Don't worry about comments from uninformed posters to the LANL blog - in this case they don't even know the role LLNL played on the 2nd axis. Of course if something happened that involved the downstream transport and target, LLNL will be involved - it's their hardware after all.

What LANL thinks of Livermore really is not relevant. They don't influence our budget, management, or projects. If they wish to be bitter about us, let them stew away.

All one has to remember is this. If it wasn't for LANL buying Mustangs on their credit cards or REQ we wouldn't be under the magnifying glass so much. Compound this with their security violations and here we are. Pensions gone, massive lay-offs and no future. All fingers point south. Now we have LLNS and things will only continue to get worse. Hello to corporate America in a filed they know nothing about and one LLNL or LANL will never be able to competed in. Funny how the ones whi caused all the problems get fully funded and the ones they screwed over get the shaft. We Will Never Forget

Sounds like some of the commenters here are just as ignorant about LANL as LANL blog commenters are about LLNL. Maybe you should inform the LANL blog where the accelerator cells were built, and I'll inform you that the mustang incident was attempted fraud by a third party, and there was no wrongdoing by the LANL worker accused of the crime. But you already knew that, didn't you?

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.

Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem

From the Huffington Post Why Workplace Jargon Is A Big Problem http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/04/25/work-words_n_5159868.html?utm_hp_ref=business&ir=Business When we replace a specific task with a vague expression, we grant the task more magnitude than it deserves. If we don't describe an activity plainly, it seems less like an easily achievable goal and more like a cloudy state of existence that fills unknowable amounts of time. A fog of fast and empty language has seeped into the workplace. I say it's time we air it out, making room for simple, concrete words, and, therefore, more deliberate actions. By striking the following 26 words from your speech, I think you'll find that you're not quite as overwhelmed as you thought you were. Count the number that LLNLs mangers use.  touch base circle back bandwidth - impactful - utilize - table the discussion deep dive - engagement - viral value-add - one-sheet deliverable - work product - incentivise - take it to the ...
