Does that mean That Tomas will have a bright future in politics? Hey he is Hispanic (according to some definitions). Tea party would love him. He would give Marco Rubio a run for his money. Plus Tomas has a much better rags-to-riches story though things seem to be rags-to-riches-to-whipping boy nowadays.

Hey, hey, hey. That ol' democrat doing what democrats do. Raise taxes, act out, look out for ol' No.1.

A little less hanky panky and a little more blood to the ol' grey matter might have prevented his current addlepation.
What would St. Pete do? Put her on her back. Not exactly a role model for kids... not the adulterer part, the senator part...

LLL smiles.

Doing the hanky-panky with the 20-something daughter of your Senate colleague when you are in your mid-40s isn't cool. Covering up the results of this tryst for over 35 years is even worse. Did he even pay child support? Sounds like he didn't because Domenici's family didn't find out about this event until very recently.

I'm very surprised to hear about this and the fact that Pete Domenici was one of the Republicans to call for Clinton's impeachment in the late 1990s smacks of hypocrisy on his part. Shame on you, Pete! I thought you were a better man than this.

Lots of unforgiving moral superiority here. That sort of thing is never honestly acquired. Might explain a lot about this entire blog...

(a) He screwed around with a girl much younger than himself and got her pregnant.

(b) He keep it secret from everyone including his family and never bothered to pay child support.

(c) He pointed fingers for "untruthfulness" at others who engaged in similar behavior like Bill Clinton.


It's not a matter of moral superiority and an unforgiving attitude. The guy showed very poor behavior with this event and nothing in the way of remorse. Not an ounce. Sadly, most of our politicians are the same in this respect.

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!
