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...

Scooby are you going to allow willful misinformation on this blog? You have freedom in speech as long it does not harm others. This nonsense could harm others. Fuaci did not personally fund coronavirus research at Wuhan. This is medical disinformation. Saying we allow the Chinese to

The idea that something like free speech should be used to hurt people is outdated concept, just allowing these people to speak is giving them a platform. There are certain things that should not be allowed to be said. I am of sick people using the idea of "free speech" to create conditions for potential violence and harm. We as a nation need to confront the idea of putting a stop to clear misinformation and
hate speech. If we need to amend the Constitution than so be it it is time to move on from the past, need form a more perfect union.
As for Tawian, we have more important things in our nation to address before we get involved in other nations business.

Scooby does this look like anti-Asian hate to you, if so than why do you allow it.
