I just received my annual TCP-1 letter from LLNS and a summary of the LLNS Pension Plan. Looked in pretty good shape in 2013. About 35% overfunded (funding target attainment percentage = 134.92%). This was a decrease from 2012 where it was 51% overfunded (funding target attainment percentage = 151.59%). They did note that the 2012 change in the law on how liabilities are calculated using interest rates improved the plan's position. Without the change the funding target attainment percentages would have been 118% (2012) and 105% (2013). 2013 assets = $2,057,866,902 2013 liabilities = $1,525,162,784 vs 2012 assets = $1,844,924,947 2012 liabilities = $1,217,043,150 It was also noted that a slightly different calculation method ("fair market value") designed to show a clearer picture of the plan' status as December 31, 2013 had; Assets = $2,403,098,433 Liabilities = $2,068,984,256 Funding ratio = 116.15% Its a closed plan with 3,781 participants. Of that number, 3,151 wer...

Fantasy liberal trope. Get over yourself.
Hate in Los Alamos
From the LANL Monitor

At the end, some of the demonstrators joined one of the creators of a banner placed over the Diamond Drive crosswalk reading “Black Lives Matter.” Shortly after it was placed there about a week ago, someone changed it to “All Lives Matter.”
“Unfortunately, it was changed again this morning to “All Lives Matter,” Isaiah Espinosa said.
I am deeply saddened know know that there are people at LANL who think "All lives Matter".

We are going to be entering a world where sarcasm is going to be a very dangerous thing, you could be canceled, fired, censored or even injured. I say we should just jump to Pol Pot methods and get it over with. In any case HBO just banned Gone with the Wind. Fortunately I know that youtube will never ban certain rap songs. By the way the American Physical Society has declared a strike today for everyone to consider various aspects of racism and police interactions with certain minatory groups. People are trying to figure out what to do today. I suggest they just listens to voices of the oppressed. I found a few good songs that cover the subtle, complex and systematic racism with police interactions can be found below by such voices of the unheard like N.W.A and Bodycount. Enjoy
