Baby I'm Sorry
I Ask for your forgiveness a million times and more before your love for me is completely out of your heart and you take your final walk out the door.
I ask for your forgiveness please! ! ! ! ! ! my heart was not Listening, so thee immature side of me allowed it to enter one ear and go out thee other. I guess i got so use to my mother and my grand mother doing things like you.
Now Im the fool who needed a wake up call for real because I blame myself for not really making you a priority! ! ! ! ! ! and for not coming to your aide when needed. Baby I'm sorry! ! ! ! ! ! , I'm sorry and I'm guilty that I could hear your plea for help and i did not get up because this brother did not no how to help U.
And it's not an excuse but I hear you today and I hope it's not to late Now! ! ! ! ! but If I'm honest I got to relax with the fact that I just got use to you handling everything, everything! ! ! that I negated that fact that we suppose to be a team! ! ! ! !
and your my Boo boo lol and that your king took his Queen for granted! ! ! in every shape or form, and I stand here today to say Baby I'm SORRY! ! ! ! ! A million times more for making you feel as tho you were a team of ONE and your king has now become your son! ! ! ! ! baby I'm sorry.

Returning to the horror from Lovecraft's original 'Reanimator' set during the dark days of WW1, Call of Cthulhu: The Wasted Land draws the player into a nightmare world where the terror of mustard gas and trench warfare are but a foretaste of what is to follow.

MANOS: The Hands of Fate
"This game will be bigger than Skyrim!" - Bill Corbett, Rifftrax/MST3K
WARNING: This is REAL retro gaming! Be prepared for vast, unique levels with challenging boss battles!
MANOS is an homage to the great games you remember from your childhood! Remember how every film and cartoon had it's own platform game adaptation? When every man, woman, child, animal and inanimate object were out to get your character? When the streets were filled with bats, ghosts and Frankenstein monsters? MANOS will take you back to the fantastically absurd games of the past!
Lost on their vacation, Mike and his family have wandered the desert trying to find a place to stay, only to wind up in the haunted Valley Lodge. Maintained by Torgo, an unusual man/satyr who "takes care of the place while The Master is away", the hotel is swimming with paranormal activity which Mike has to brave through to find his now missing family. Who is The Master, and what does he want with Mike's family? Armed with his trusty revolver, Mike will have to wander the haunted halls, venture out into the desert, uncover a dark temple and battle the forces of darkness to find out!
- Huge levels with boss battles at the end of each!
- True classic gameplay!
- 100% authentic retro style!
MANOS pays homage simultaneously to the worst movies of all time and some of the best games. The gameplay will remind you of CastleVania, Mega Man, Super Mario Bros. and more.

The purpose of this letter to the editor is to request the residents of Dawson County to assist me in contacting our local and state officials to work toward improving the unsafe intersection of Hwy. 53 and Hugh Stowers Road.
Gov. Nathan Deal gave his annual State of the State address to a joint session of the General Assembly on Jan. 15. The annual event takes place in the House of Representatives and is attended by members of the House, Senate, State Supreme Court Justices, State Court of Appeal Judges and the State's Constitutional Officers.
I read a news report this week that says while we are living longer in the U.S., people in other countries are living even longer. Bummer.
Dear Cameron:
Before 2013 faded out, my intentions were to congratulate a number of local people receiving honors. And though it is late, and I'll probably overlook some important ones, I'll still tip my hat to these.
I hope each of you had a safe and wonderful Christmas and that your New Year is off to a good start. My family was blessed this past year in so many ways, and we had a wonderful holiday season. Stacie and I have a tradition of taking the girls to the mountains for New Year's, and we had a great time again this year. The girls were extremely excited to be there to see their first snow of the season.
This could be an important piece of information I am about to share with you. Whether it is or not is up to you. It depends on how much you care about the money being spent on our state's politicians. If you don't care and want to cop the "it doesn't make any difference" attitude, then I suggest you blow the dust off the ol' Funk & Wagnall and look up the word "apathy." Or go kiss a goat. Your choice.
Good grief. I just took a peek at next week's calendar. It says 2014. That can't be correct. I'm still waiting for Y2K and for all our computers to crash. I must have overslept.
The Georgia Hospital Administration and the Georgia State Medical Association are asking Gov. Nathan Deal to accept the federal government's offer of $40.5 billion for Medicaid expansion in our state.
Santa is a big part of our annual Christmas party for Friends of Recovery, but I had not met the man playing Santa this year.
There is no way I can send Christmas cards to all the wonderful people who expressed concern for me during my recent "confinement" through cards, calls, flowers, food, visits and prayers. So please accept this as my personal greeting to you. It is also a greeting to those whom I don't even know.
The mood in the galley of the research ship was gloomy. Our grand experiment had failed and we were pounding our way through the rough seas of the Gulf of Mexico bound for New Orleans.
Former South African president Nelson Mandela has received much-deserved praise following his death on Dec. 5 at the age of 95, and rightly so. South Africa could have sunk into chaos and a bloody civil war with Mandela's rise to power following 27 years of imprisonment and the end of apartheid. Instead, he preached reconciliation and forgiveness, not vengeance. For that, the world can be grateful.
It is hard to believe that 2013 is about to come to a close. It has been a productive and busy year for my family. I was blessed to be able to serve in my first session as your representative. It is a true honor to represent you at the Georgia State Capitol. With the year coming to an end, we are gearing up for the 2014 legislative session that will start on Jan. 13.
When "Dawson County, Georgia Heritage 1857-1996" was published, Dawson County Historical Society members didn't visualize that 27 years later there would be a third printing. For several years, there have been no copies available for sale, but this year they had a limited number of books reprinted and are now offering them as a Christmas special for the price of the original book, $65.
During the third week of the Georgia General Assembly's 2015 legislative session, my colleagues and I passed one of the most important pieces of legislation of the year: The 2015 amended fiscal year budget (AFY 2015).
The third week of the 2015 legislative session saw a significant piece of legislation pass through the Georgia State Senate. I am proud to say that with unanimous consent, Senate Bill 1 passed the Senate and is now under consideration in the House.
Let's get off the backs of law enforcement, shall we? Most of us couldn't do their job, or wouldn't do it, if we had the chance.
Forty years ago I embarked on a career in the oil industry that has covered decades. That career has taken me around the world far more than once. It has taken me from oil rigs to refineries, to massive tanker ships to the highest corporate towers.
The State of Georgia's Juvenile Justice System is going to the dogs. And that's a good thing.
Georgia is still refusing the federal funds to expand Medicaid to cover more than 500,000 uninsured people. This decision will cost the state's health care system about $34 billion over the next decade, according to a new report by two well-respected research organizations.
Gov. Nathan Deal made it clear during his annual "State of the State" address that Georgia's economy continues to grow in the aftermath of the worst economic collapse of the 21st century.

I'm so very excited to introduce Treasure Hunting, a new monthly column for DIY Wednesdays. If you're like me, you can often be found browsing the aisles of thrift shops, scouring the tables at flea markets or haggling over prices at yard sales. Sometimes you inherit a random item unexpectedly, or perhaps you walk past give-away piles on the street and feel an involuntary cringe over the wasted possibilities. This column stems from those experiences and from a love of objects and their formal properties.
I'm not advocating aggressive hoarding habits by any means, but there are some seemingly mundane, disposable, obsolete objects in the world that are not entirely without merit. Treasure Hunting will take these objects and find a way to make them wonderful again, through their visual impact as a collection or their value as a new and improved functional or decorative item.
The first post is about old keys. The key is a pretty standard tool that we all own, but as a design object, it's spectacular. The possibilities for using keys in interesting and beautiful ways are endless, so forgive the length of this initial post; they won't all be this lengthy, I promise. I hope you enjoy the new column and stay tuned for all the treasures yet to come! — Kate

Nothing combines form and function quite like a key. Their beautifully peculiar notches and curves are not just for decoration; the shapes are dictated by the maze of gates inside their corresponding door lock. Maybe if I studied locksmithing a bit, the process would be demystified but as it stands now, keys are magical. They certainly look magical. With a humble purpose, low price point and everyday availability, keys are an untapped resource for creating a captivating home display.
Images, from top: A key display from Llubav Choy Duerr's living room, a collection of skeleton keys from Country Living
Hanging Composition
This style of loosely composed objects as wall décor seems so effortlessly chic to me. I love how it catches the eye, and then allows it to wander off the composition. The beauty is not only in the overall visual impact of the varied shapes and sizes. It's also in the details you can only see close up, the intricacies and history behind each rusted or labeled key. Another benefit to this display is that you can add to it as time goes on, enriching it with an ongoing collection of pieces found here and there.
How to Get the Look
1. A successful composition can be loose and organically shaped, or rigid and linear. First, measure the size of the wall space you have.
2. Tape off the dimension on the floor so you can roughly plan out a composition to see if it works and to give you an idea of the spacing you need.
3. Begin hanging the keys on the wall using a hammer and small picture-hanging nails or brads. These will cause minimal damage and allow you to make a few adjustments without causing any eyesores in your wall.
4. If you have trouble finding varied sizes or shapes of keys, consider drawing silhouettes of keys onto decorative paper, fabric or wood veneer and add them into the mix. The combination of 2D and 3D objects can be quite striking if there is a common shape that keeps them unified.

Framed Key Art
Sometimes quantity in a collection is unnecessary. I love the look of a single object or group of objects hovering in a frame. The focus given to a seemingly mundane object once it's framed is mysterious and visually quite interesting. Placing a small collection of keys in to a framed wall piece is a quick and easy way to display the objects.
How to Get the Look
1. Find a frame or frames that will fit your key collection. If you want to have glass in the frame, you will need to use a shadow box or a frame deep enough to fit your keys. Paint or treat the frame if necessary.
2. Use a piece of cardboard, foam core or wood as the backing for your piece. Cut it to size, so it will fit perfectly within your frame.
3. Cover the backing with paper, linen or a fabric of your choice. Use spray adhesive to attach the paper or fabric to the backing.
4. Use small nails or tacks to hang the keys in place. If your keys are lightweight, you can choose to use a small dab of hot glue at the top of the back of the key to permanently set the keys in place. Remove any loose glue threads by blowing on them for a few seconds with a hairdryer.
5. Carefully place your keys in the frame and replace the backing or glass, and it's ready to hang!

Loose Keys
Keys are like little mysteries unto themselves, which is why they can be charming just on their own to give as present or wear as an accessory. You can personalize a plain key with paint, gold leaf, decoupage and other craft techniques, or you can simply use a beautiful antique key on its own — either way, keys are little treasures that make the perfect objet d'art.
How to Get the Look
1. You can fake the look of these beautiful cast porcelain keys by dipping real keys into plaster-of-Paris or thick white paint. First, bend a few paper clips open and hang them on a string to make drying hooks, and place a layer of newspaper or paper towel underneath the drying station.
2. Mix up the plaster-of-Paris or paint in a small bucket, ensuring you have enough liquid in the bucket to submerge the entire key. Give the key several coats, allowing it to dry between each coat. This will help achieve that thick, made-of-clay appearance.
3. Attach the key with a pretty ribbon to a gift, or string the key on a chain to create a lovely pendant.
Now that you've discovered several ways to use a collection of keys, it's time to go hunting . . .
Where to Look
1. eBay — On any given day, there will be at least 50 auctions for antique or old keys happening on eBay. It's probably your best resource for finding keys in a short time line, plus it allows you to compare many collections at once and pick the one you like best. Some great search terms are: antique key lot, old key lot, skeleton key lot, or just plain keys, old keys, antique keys, etc. People who label their items "antique" vs. "old" usually view the objects as more valuable and price them that way. I like to start with "old" because you find some undiscovered gems hiding in there sometimes.
2. Flea markets and yard sales — These can be hit or miss whenever you're looking for something specific, but they will usually have the best deals. If you frequent the same flea markets and see the same vendors every time, you can mention that you're in search of keys. Usually these vendors have the time and resources to do a lot more searching then you do. If you mention what you want and you're willing to pay a little extra (within reason), this can be a great connection.
3. Etsy —The vintage selection on Etsy is much more selective and curated than that available on eBay. As a result, you'll find far fewer items, but you can pretty much guarantee they will be quality specimens. However, this curatorial aspect coupled with the straight sale format (as opposed to eBay's auction style) means higher costs. Etsy would be a good option for someone looking for one or two special items, and I would check here only if eBay and flea markets have failed to provide any treasures.
4. Hardware stores — If you are going for a more modern look or need a large mass of keys to complete your display, you should consider adding standard keys into the mix. Hardware stores often have tons of mistake keys that would normally go to the trash. If you plead the case for art, some of the managers might soften to you and let you have them instead. Anything for art!
You can use these resources to hunt for keys of all shapes, sizes and eras. Once you're on the lookout, you'll start to see them everywhere. While antique keys are a more valued find, don't spend over a few dollars for a large antique key unless you're determined to have it. Depending on the size, try to pay around 50 cents to a dollar per key, especially if you want to amass a large collection. Like I said, consider adding handmade paper keys into the mix, as well; be creative and experiment with what you have.
Happy hunting!
I'm a treasure hunter by nature and the two things I always gravitate to: bowls and chairs.
If I only have the space for more chairs, then I wouldn't have to cycle through them, but alas, we live in 1000-1100 sq ft apartment :)
Oh I love old keys, I found a bunch of them when I would dig in the dirt as a kid! What's even cooler is the house that i live in has all the original locks that use skeleton keys so fun!
Love this new column!
I love this post! I am a treasure hunter for sure and I have a box full of keys that probably weights 20 pounds – from years of collecting! I like all the ideas you have given me in this post! I think I am going to attempt the wall o'keys!
Thank you for this post! I enjoy collecting old keys and have tried incorporating them into our home decor where possible. I'll have to try the framing techniques you've shared. Great post!
Looking forward to the new column! It sounds so exciting! Treasure hunting is my favourite past time….that I hope will be a full time job very soon! I can dream!
I love this new column! My favorite activity is wandering thrift stores and looking for hidden treasures. I've even gotten my fiance to join in the fun.
I. Love. This.
I love antique keys- this post was so interesting. I usually have a group of them tied with a ribbon setting for an end table with an old or classic book as accessory pieces. I found the images of framed keys to be another wonderful way to use them as art. Great ideas ! Thank you so much for this informative post.
Katy…this post is definitely going
to my accessory file. Thank you again. Fabulous post !
This post came at a good time. My husband just inherited several old keys from his grandfather, who was a locksmith in Manhattan early last century. (They were passed on by his mother.)
We've been looking for a shadowbox, but now I realize I can make my own. I'm planning to hang it in our entryway, along with this glicee print by artist Duane Keiser: http://keiserprints.flyingcart.com/?p=detail&pid=13&cat_id=
I think I'm going to need this column more than just once a month!
THANK YOU for this new column. I share your dismay at the way our society is so quick to throw things in the landfill without considering other uses (both functional and creative).
Great article! Another option for hanging the keys in a composition is to use straight pins (the ones you would use for sewing) rather than nails… my grandmother taught me that trick, you have to be careful when hammering them in, but the holes they make are so small you don't even really need to fill them when you take it down… you can use them to hang picture frames also (as long as the frame isn't super heavy)
I have a whole wall full of keys. I collect them for 4 year now and It was great to see that some other people are as crazy as me!
I often find keys while flea marketing, usually piled up in small cardboard boxes that are off to the side. It's hard to pass them up.
Love this post! Great thoughts and photos! :]
I love old keys. Old wooden electrical equipment is awesome too, like old Ohm meters. Old wooden cases in general are great. I have an ancient violin case that I treasure.
Super excited about this new series!! And you've inspired me with some great ideas to try with keys.
I loved this post. I have been collecting old keys for sometime now and I am always trying to figure out exactly what to do with them.
This is a great idea for a new column! During my stint in NC I loved going to the fairgrounds and finding treasures.
Its something fairly new to me, but I fell in love. The keys are beautiful! Thanks for posting:)
Thanks everyone! I am SO happy you like the new column, and I cannot wait to show you all what's coming…
Donkee – I am also a lover of chairs, it's not the most convenient collection for a small apartment dweller, but i'm hooked. I will definitely add chairs and bowl to my list for post ideas. stay tuned!
Oooooh. Treasure hunting. This is right up my alley! What a brilliant idea! And keys as a first post? I think my heart just melted a little bit!
Great idea for a column as I am a hunter and gatherer myself and currently addicted to American Pickers on the History channel. I have some old keys and recently my brother bought an old trunk that was locked…lo and behold, one of my keys opened it!
Great article – I love old keys. I often take time to wonder who owned them before, and what they opened. A couple of good uses for keys are; 1. Tie a small, antique key to each end of a pretty ribbon to make a great boo mark.
2. I have a medium size clear vase in my living room which I filled with an assortment of old keys. It never fails to get a comment from visitors.
I have been collecting old keys and been thinking/looking for an idea to do with them. I love how many small objects together can make such a statment. I love D*S!!!
I LOVE old keys. I am stoked about this new column…what a great idea.
Great! I'm really looking forward to this new column! And what a lovely topic today!
This is a great idea for a new column! I love going to antique malls and am always thinking of fun ways to use the items you find there. If you're taking suggestions, I've recently been snagging retro sewing patterns because I love the art on the front. Aside from framing them, I'm not sure how to use them.
Congratulation from Italy! Your site is a fantastic source of inspiration, I really love it and your articles and suggestions, too.
Great idea for a column! Looking forward to more!
i'm very excited for this series!
Excellent idea for a column! I am excited to see what other types of treasures you feature!
I am thinking a bunch of keys strung together on a cord or ribbon would look great on a wall and would make for fewer nail holes than hanging each key individually. Maybe just tie a knot around each key to hold it in place.
Thanks for the ideas & resources!
I've always loved the look of a key collection, but admittedly it's one of those items that seems to allude me on my thrifting-ventures…
Love the pictures of the framed keys on canvas!
After my deceased grandmother's "shotgun" style house in New Orleans was drowned in the 2005 hurricane and later gutted by the insurance company, I went by last summer to visit her house on a trip from Austin. She was "Sweetheart" Casanova, and I found in several of her doors those old keys yall are displaying, rusty and decayed, but meaningful, tragic and sentimental to me. I feel so happy to have it, knowing she or my grandfather locked up their doors … So your key displays are inspiring me to find a nice solution to show off and tell the story of the key I brought home. Lately I've been studying mixed media collage making and scrapping, so I'm thinking I'll use a copied classic old photo of she and my g'paw from their early marriage, and use that almost as the backdrop of that single key yall showed, centered in the middle of a squared off matt. What a testament to their life, even though they were spared the horror of the only home they ever owned being 15 feet submerged over a month after Katrina.
my husband and i created a little skeleton key vignette in our house after seeing some on a wall in our favorite little deli in positano, italy. we would go in every day, sometimes for a coffee, sometimes for a dessert and always people watch and look at the little wall of keys. it takes me back there every time i see it. thanks for sharing!!
This is so fun! My sister gave me a huge collection of keys for a wedding present (long story). They are now lining our dining room wall as a kind of wall paper.
For my wedding, we tied antique keys to seating name tags (and then centerpieces on tables included antique key door plates). We scoured our local antique store and bought every key we could find – 148!
Love the new column! I've already been on Etsy and Ebay looking for keys
I grew up in an old house that needed skeletons keys…even my bedroom! I've always loved them and when i was younger found some in the yard. I then used to think they were magical. Like a key to the Secret Garden or to a Castle.
Love it! thank you!
I love this post!
I hoard keys myself, and I have been obsessed with making necklaces out of them lately. They are the perfect simple accessory!
I love this post!

there's a great shop in Santa Cruz that has its shop name on the wall outlined with old keys…it's pretty spectacular. love the new column!
love the look of old keys and its pretty coincidental that sam mentioned the santa cruz shop with keys outlining its name. its called "Stripe" and probably my favorite shop in the area!
thanks for this post – its inspired me to hunt for my own set of old keys!
I've always loved and collected interesting looking keys.
Currently I live in an old house where I get to use a skeleton key to access my laundry room. It's one of my favorite things about this house.
I am looking forward to seeing more treasure hunting columns.
How great! I might just have to start collecting!
-Chic Done Cheap
So excited for this new column!
Keys are amazing!! Am super excited about this new column!!
LOVE IT! There's a store here in Oakland the Center for Creative Reuse, which is like a treasure trove of weird things for craft projects. Its my favorite place in the world.
what I did with some of my key collection:
I agree, there's something very pleasing about the shape of keys. Not sure what it is but they work from a design point of view.
Love this new column! I've just moved from a city where the thrifting scene was absolutely dead to one where it's alive and kicking. I'm so excited to hit the flea markets and this column will be so useful in my new adventures :)
Great article…I have a great skeleton key collection that I never plan to part with…just add to!
I love keys and I know I am going to LOVE this new column! Many thanks for your ideas and for taking the time to share them! I can't wait until next week!
One of my earliest treasures as a kid was a key. You inspire me to reach out to that child and play!
I have been decorating my home with old skeleton keys for years. I love the vintage look they give to each room. I have even used them when creating art pieces. I suspect Treasure Hunting is going to be my favorite Column! Thanks for sharing the ideas!
Well…up until reading this post I had a really amazing set of antique keys sitting in my Etsy shopping cart. They'd been there for about a week, but….let's just say they're on their way to my house now.
I love this new column! Treasure hunting at my local thrift and vintage shops is probably one of my top hobbies.
My boyfriend's father, a former prison director, has an amazing collection of all things prison related, including lots antique cell and gate keys. They're about three times the size of regular skeleton keys and SO intricate and beautiful. I love the juxtaposition between their aesthetic beauty and their harsh function.
I am really excited about this new weekly addition to Design Sponge. As a treasure hunter myself, I am looking forward to your posts and the inspiration I can take from them. There are so many things I love hunting for….I just know them when I see them.
Love this post! I have a collection of skeleton keys and have been meaning to showcase them in a shadowbox for months. Now I have lots more ideas and sources… thanks!
I love this! I collect old keys – I even have a skeleton key tattooed on my arm. Definitely going to be trying out a few of these ideas. Thanks!
(you can see my tattoo on my photo blog at hijennross.wordpress.com)
LOVE THIS! I've always had a thing for things old…especially keys.
A wonderful idea! I have a little collection of antique keys, they from my father's childhood home where nobody lives anymore. I never thought of hanging them on the wall like art.
Looking forward to the next post :)
AWESOME new column. Love it mucho!!
This will be right up my alley! I've been seeing tons of jewelry, magnets, pins, etc.. made from old keys.
This catagory is just what I wanted to see, making Something out of Nothing! Thank you!
WOW!! I love this new column!!!
There's nothing more exquisite than skeleton keys. There's so much history behind each piece and it's something you can find all over the world. I love seeing that my key collection made the posting -yay! My wall has about 190 keys and they've come from all over. 50 of them are from India. The rest are a combination of Virginia, Texas, France, West Virginia, and Egypt and some were gifts. This is whats also nice about having a passion for collecting because then friends and family want to add to your wall!! I also have keyholes –they are a great addition and some of them are very ornate. Grace and Kate I'm going to need this column more than once a week!
I have a beautiful, heavy 6 inch antique key which I use… as a keychain. I have two small groups of keys hooked to the big loop. It's heavy as heck but so easy to find in my purse! And I tell people it's the front door key to my chateau.
I LOVE old keys. I just started a new project that I HAVE to share: I'm making a KEY WINDCHIME! I cut and tied one end of 20 or so 9-12inch long pieces of fishing line to the top of 20 or so keys, drilled a whole in a thin piece of wood and tied the other end of the fishing line to the wood. The sounds of the keys clanging together is surprisingly heavenly! We even "hid" a house key in our windchime just in case we get locked out. So far, we've been lucky! This project is fun, easy, and cheap…and who DOESN'T like to up-cycle something instead of throwing it away!
Wow what a lovey site. I need some help if possible. I've just come across 2 bunches of amazing looking keys. All different sizes and shapes. They look old but need some help on dates and if there worth anything and how can I bring them back to life. I can e mail photos
Thank you :)
i absolutely love old keys be it a skeleton key or a flat key. the mystery behind them is magical,electrical and mysterious.Every key would tell a story. What I do to make them even more unique is on my facebook page called Didora Designs. I have about 250 keys all up. I think what this lady has done is beautiful. I f you want click on the link below and have a look at a diverse range of vintage keys.
yours truly

This past summer, the Cybersecurity Act of 2012 failed due to a Senate filibuster inspired by industry lobbying. The Obama Administration has publicly raised the possibility of an executive order that merely asks industry, including the power sector, to develop best practices in coordination with the federal government, for voluntary participation.
Unless you've been living under a rock, you've noticed news accounts of a possible executive order on cyber security that would ask the power sector to voluntarily undertake new cyber security efforts on the distribution system and participate in coordinated information sharing with the federal government.
Of course, in an election season, or in industry circles of whatever stripe, use of the term "federal government" is a not-so-secret code word implying incompetence, overreach, mistrust and, generally, a ticket to the monkey house.
On the other hand, in journalism circles, any mention of the terms "self-policing," "voluntary regulation" or "industry knows best" is laughable. Rigor in a challenging task is rarely achieved alone. Star athletes have coaches. Proof readers provide a second set of eyes. Two heads are better than one. Etc.
And so the friction between government and industry will always exist. The relationship becomes particularly thorny when national security and industry converge, as it does in the area of cyber security for critical infrastructure such as exists in the power sector.
That's a sketch of the tensions involved. Now let's look at recent events to set the stage for a variety of interviews that I hope will help illuminate the issue from many angles.
Briefly, Sen. Joe Lieberman, I-Conn., introduced the Cybersecurity Act in February and the measure fell to a Senate filibuster. According to Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W. Va., the measure failed due to lobbying by industry groups and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. In late September, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano informed the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affair Committee that an executive order might be issued but would be less effective than legislation.

Report: "screaming matches" with DeBoer led to Ballard trade
What do you guys make of this?
If it's true, then DeBoer needs to fully realize he's in the NHL and not in juniors.
We all wanted new blood from outside the organization (instead of a retread) when Martin stepped down as coach, but in hindsight, hiring a coach straight out of juniors with no professional experience looks like a very questionable decision. I don't think DeBoer was ready for the NHL when we hired him, and unless we see better results, we can't just continue to spend years letting him learn on the job.
To be fair though, Ballard deserved to be yelled at quite a bit this year, he was a shadow of his former self.
If there really are issues though, you'll find out when DeBoer is replaced (whenever that may be, obviously it will happen one day).
Can you really blame DeBoer for treating the players like juniors when that's how some of them played last season?
"The Panther players are quick to let everyone know, of course, because DeBoer is extremely unpopular with most of the Florida players because he largely treats them like juniors."
If this is true this is a big, big problem. You are dealing with grown men and professionals, not amateur teenagers anymore. That could really lose the respect of some of the vets and could mean DB is out after this year if they don't make the playoffs (which is still a miracle on my opinion).
And if he was unpopular with any Panther, I'd imagine it'd be Horton anyway.
It's mostly a little he-said-she-said right now, but I would imagine there was some bad blood between PDB and the players after the Boynton incident. Come to think of it, we've pretty much sucked since that incident.
On the other hand, with a roster that figures to be as young as the Panthers the next couple years, a coach that treats them like "juniors" may be just what the doctor ordered.:nod:
Well maybe Ballard had a bad year for a reason other than "he's dumb or lacks skill" (which he doesn't)
...and what 16Skippy said...
If these problems persist, then DeBoer shouldn't be here. Sure this roster isn't the most talented, but the bottom line is that DeBoer has already had two incidents where players got upset with him, and he's made many other questionable choices in his 2 years here. If he doesn't show some signs of improvement this year, then I don't think DeBoer's contract should be renewed.
Whats with the junior guys (DeBoer with florida, and Groulx when he was in Rochester) both of these guys seem to have no respect for veteran players. Both of them seem like they don't know too much about vets and how the nhl works with players... you can't treat guys making pretty big money like kids, because they will tune you out faster than you can say jack robinson
What does it mean, "treats them like juniors?"
Pete's 93 point season says hello
Quite honestly, I've never been a big fan of DeBoer. People also loved blaming Kitchen, as if he wasn't one of DeBoer's guys.
I'm hoping he gets fired, at some point, and Tallon gets somebody else, whoever that may be.
Tallon quickly hired Quenneville in a short season, I think DeBo will be sent packing sooner than later.
I thought Pete was awesome the first season in FLA. He seemed like he really rallied the troops and we had our best season in awhile, but things started getting a bit dicey at the end of that season, and then this season, how miserable. Not sure whats going on here, but Boynton, and now supposedly Ballard?
Does "where there is smoke, there is fire" apply to this?
probably neither here nor there. i'm not sold on pete but a shouting match or two, especially with the **** season ballard had last year (had to know CH would show up and try to excuse ballard) really doesn't mean that much.
and it's rather irresponsible for this writer to say:
ultimately, the proof is seen on the ice. can this team establish an identity and play to it night in and night out? i'm not talking about wins and losses, i'm talking about consistent effort, adherence to systems/philosophies, compete, etc. it seemed like they were on the right track 2 years ago (it wasn't *all* vokoun and andy) but last year was not as encouraging. there have obviously been mitigating circumstances, though (personnel, management, ownership, learning curve, etc.) as well.
the reality is that it's not about which system or philosophy you install, it's whether the guys in the room buy what you're selling. i think the jury is still out on pete, imo.
Works both ways.
At the end of the day, we didn't make the playoffs, and DeBoer's coaching that season down the stretch (specifically with Boynton) didn't help team chemistry, I'm sure.
DeBoer has gotten a lot of credit for doing a lot of nothing. He's lucky he's coaching in South Florida.
Yes, it's a bit of he-said, she-said, but we have new owners and a new GM so I don't doubt Pete may very well be on a short leash with Tallon itching to bring in his own guy. Whether it's due to the latter or to issues with players, Pete's had his up and downs. One of those questionable choices he made was his assistant coaches & keeping them so long.
I just hope the players are still buying into his system and this isn't true b/c it would make what's looking like a poor to mediocre season (at best) even worse.
Even though expectations are low among the fans, I don't think Tallon views this as a throw away season. He'll want to see what this team can do. If they play well, it bodes well for next year. If it goes poorly, getting the first pick won't resolve all that much. So I think Laus was right, DeBoer is already on a short leash, even if only in Tallon's mind. DT does not want a mediocre season if he can help it, and if the coach is the problem, there will be a quick fix.
BTW it's probably not a coincidence that the two arguments we've heard about are PDB versus the two close friends. Is this Ballard's revenge for the Boynton incident?

Speaking of Bowling Balls
8 pcs 3/8" rebar cut 40"
1 ceramic insulator
2 pieces of craft glass
1 3" lag bolt
flat black paint
Normally I'd say--eeeeeewwwww ..... a BUG !
LOL --- but I love this one ! Robert -- You have a unique brain . You see things no one else does ! ENVY !!! ENVY !!! ENVY !!!
PS ...I don't know if you could ever incorporate pieces of stained glass in your creations , but that's my main craft . I have tons of good size leftover pieces. I just can't throw them out ... but if I store them - I'll forget about them ! Robert , would you like a goodie box sent to you ?? ( free ) I can send you a few pieces -- OR-- I can jam a flat rate box till it bulges out ! LOL
Yes or no ... if not ...no big deal. Don't feel pressured.
I have so much leftover glass, I just thought I'd offer !
Amazing bowling ball art!!! Oh my brain is exploding from craft ideas!!!
SOOOO - this may be tacky to ask but Toomuchglass, if I send the postage do you have enough glass to send me a box??? Just had to ask - the thought of little pieces of stained glass is just so exciting.
What an amazing collection of people make up this group, curious, witty, and thoughtful. Thank you all for your friendship.
cnm1 - I first drilled eight new 1/2" diameter holes in the ball, bent and fitted the rebar, mixed about a Tablespoon size dollop of Bondoî, and attached two legs at a go. (By fitting two legs at a time it kept the ball balanced). The insulator was done in a similar fashion: I drilled a pilot hole for a 3" lag bolt, fitted the insulator, filled with a small quantity of Bondoî, and it was basically complete.
Hi Robert....been missing you and your creations here! LOVE the spider! Never really thought about using a BB for the body....I'll have to keep my eyes open since my DH loves creating arachnids! Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing your new garden creation!
