A year ago, I posted this torch in the first post of this BLOG vowing to continue the defunct http://llnlthefinalstory.blogspot.com. I named it llnlthetruestory.
I am about ready to hand the ownership to the next volunteer. Please email me if you want to continue the BLOG.

Congrats Scooby, and thank you! A year of running a blog represents a tremendous amount of your time and effort for which you received only our gratitude. Should we ever meet, though, I will buy the beer.

Cheers!

Well it looks like the new blogmaster is no better than the old blogmaster. He or she picks what he or she wants to post and when it become to controversial or not in support of his or her political view / candidate, he or she deleted the topics entire. So don't worry there will be no improvement to your blog. If you haven't noticed anything pro Obama is kept but anything anti-Obama is eliminated since there can only be one party and one view. Another example of a pure Communist / Socialist media at work. It seems those who run blogs are no better than those who control the major media's like NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN or MSNBC. I guess this is why the LLNL blog when run years ago had it all over LLNL blog. That blogmaster at least let people vent regardless if her or she agreed with it.

You make no sense - what are you talking about. I've not edited one post. Everything that's been left for comment has been posted.

I think I will start a new post soon. Something for posts that have nothing to do with the topic discussed. I am able to move posts, but I've not deleted any as of yet. I simply try to moderate.

I am glad that you're reading and participating on this blog though.

THANKS!

Just wanted to tell you that I REALLY APPRECIATE the Blog, and all the work to keep it going.

Since it started, I took the VSSOP. The Blog did and continues to provide access to information that is important to me, and now that I'm retired, it is a link to see where LLNL is going, and what is happening.

Many topics are of continuing importance, such as Benefits. Mostly I am a reader, (or maybe a lurker?) I suspect there are lots of silent readers out here. But now and then I've posted a point or a question, and usually am pleased to see a good response!

MY Sincere THANKS!

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
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.

By scooby
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

By scooby
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 ...
