So I needed a Lock for my new locker when I go back to college and I got a blue lock but I wasn't yet satisfied I didn't feel like the lock was truely mines so I went crazy and added some personal touches to it, what do you think? Too much? Haha.
Le Pont des Arts, Paris
more than 1,600 different sized and shaped “love locks” cling to its railings
After 100mm of rain in the last two days the Lock Street Bridge over Quart Pot Creek looks like a weir! Closed to traffic.
Apparently it is tradition for newly engaged lovers to put a lock on the grates of the bridge, and then throw the key into the river to symbolize the permanence of their relationship.

This is a great picture because it encapsulates the themes of paranoia, invasion, and secrecy that are associated with the Cold War. The briefcase that the Victoreen Model 70 was carried in had a lock on it that would imply several things. First it implies that the AECL wanted very few people to have access to this (secrecy). Second, it implies that the dosimeter was relatively easy to use because they were afraid of just anyone getting their hands on it. Lastly, it implies that it was very valuable and they couldn't afford to lose it. Also, notice the rust on the lock. This implies that it was genuine and that it was used often.
