As you will see, LLNS did not earn the "award term." However, the Performance Evaluation Report - upon which this memo is based - is not yet up on the web. Some of you will recall that last year, the Fee Determining Official (at that time, Neile Miller) gave LLNL management a "bump up" to allow them the "award term." She also gave LANL management an anomaly to give them the "award term." Congress was not amused - and so it may be particularly interesting to see the actual Performance Evaluation Reports this year. Tri-Valley CAREs will be watching for the FY 2013 Performance Evaluation Report, and will use the Freedom of Information Act to ensure its public availability if it is not posted by NNSA on the web in a timely manner.

I'm not sure anyone here cares what Marylia Kelley has to say about anything.

She provides a link to the NNSA PERs website. Interestingly, however, NNSA appears to have disabled select content on the site.

From the number of comments I believe it is safe to assume no one cares about her or her organization.

"I do." said Mr. Kelly to reporters.

"On Tuesdays if she is in a good mood, I get lucky."

Her post was about the LLNS annual performance evaluation. Too boring for some of you?

Let's be careful here. TVC is examining the legitimacy of lab contract awards and extensions. There is (or should be) a connection to our LLNS "worker bee" assignments and NNSA "performance evaluations" of the labs yes? Do you want a NNSA rubber stamp annual review of the labs, or a substantive 360 review? It's only our jobs, benefits, and future. I'm just saying, unless you think we are the same or better off under LLNS, let's not discard a common concern from the outside. We need not be in complete lock step with TVC to value a common concern.

I want both Marylia and NNSA to eat shit and die.

The lab,the employees, the country, and nuclear science were much better off when UC ran the place and everyone else was self absorbed or stoned...

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!
