Loyalty??

The new Sandia operator is requiring employees to sign what some are calling a "loyalty oath". Anybody got a copy? I hear some would rather leave than sign, others are simply not signing, and others are contacting their lawyers to figure out what parts of it may be illegal.

Why not just give Sandia managers undisclosed raises and undisclosed bonuses like LANSLLNS does to buy loyalty? No signatures required for allegiance with that method. If LANL goes non-profit in 2018, lab salaries might be in the public domain once again.

This is just a way to sniff out the subversives. Got to give them credit.

The problem is that Steve may be a subversive.

Sound like Steve Girrens is up to his old games he played at LANL. He doesn't want your loyalty, he wants your adoration of him. Girrens is French for God. Problem is, you have all these egos running Sandia that not only want your commitment but your soul. Sounds like a religion (Youngerism) is being implemented at Sandia.

Sandians will all be going to church on Sunday (whether you like it on not!) with Younger as the preceding Cardinal. Guess who will be sitting in the front row?

Have you idiots even confirmed that such an oath exists? Could be a nondisclosure, could be a policy on public statements. Hell, could even be a social media policy (irony). How about somebody test the hypothesis first?

Sign it and lie. It's just another job.

Check out Steve Younger in this video, he looks and acts like a humorless zombie even while all the rest of the talking heads appear to be normal humans. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQBLpJFi6f0

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!
