I am awaiting someone to do a Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon on this one to tie it back to the National Labs.

A topic on this blog need not always be about LLNL science. If a topic like retiree COLAs, benefits, local cost of living, and yes, LLNL employee and LLNL retiree home property values are all germane topics as well. One’s net worth which includes their home value , can have a material impact to one’s retirement decisions.

Your Kevin Bacon comment is funny! Enjoy your day.

Azul points out, some insurance companies that back or insure insurance companies that we pay home insurance premiums to, are withdrawing from the market.

You are a year or two behind the times. Several insurance companies have gone bankrupt in Florida and a few have pulled out of the state. There are scams going on where a company is created and they collect the first payments, then go bankrupt when they have to pay up. Some companies, I think Allstate is one, have pulled out of California. I had to get a new car insurance company because California Casualty made a "business decision" to pull out of New Mexico. People in Florida are backing out of house purchases because they cannot afford the insurance, including the flood insurance.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
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.

By scooby
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.

tcp1 looking good

By scooby
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...
