Exhibits at the new Children's Museum of Green Bay are expected to be installed this month, and a grand opening is set for April, officials said Tuesday.
Museum officials gave a tour of the 15,000-square-foot space to supporters. Construction began last summer.
Toni Burnett, the museum's executive director, said she is confident that the finished product will provide Green Bay children and parents with a high-quality attraction.
"I think people in Green Bay are going to be absolutely floored," Burnett said. "Every piece of the museum is just cool, fun and unique."
The museum is part of the WaterMark real estate development under way along downtown Green Bay's Washington Street at the site of the former Younkers department store.
In its earlier incarnation, the children's museum operated for many years inside the downtown Washington Commons shopping mall. The museum closed its doors in 2006, and has been making plans to reopen ever since.
Officials said Tuesday they still are $1.3 million short of their $4.5 million fundraising goal.
But with interior walls now going up at the new site, crews are within weeks of installing many interactive and educational exhibits in the museum.
"It's very exciting to be part of this project," said Scott Koffarnus, chief executive of Cineviz, a Green Bay firm designing an interactive exhibit about Lake Michigan.
Museum officials have recruited designers from across the country to create exhibits that will include a miniature fire truck, lighthouse, tree house, sailboat, shoe store, diner, garden shop and football field.
Although some exhibits are being designed or built in Seattle, Minneapolis and Indianapolis, others are being done closer to home.
Mike Kilgore of Green Bay-based Modern Design & Development said his firm is pleased to have the job of designing and assembling the 12-foot-long mock fire truck, which kids will be able to climb on and use to douse pretend fires.
The exhibit is being customized according to museum officials' precise specifications and objectives, Kilgore said.
"It's going to be unique," he said. "It's going to definitely be an identifier."

All day today, people across the country are taking time to honor our nation's 23 million veterans.
One of the largest Veterans Day tributes in Kentucky happens each year at Camp Nelson National Cemetery in Jessamine County.
Hundreds of veterans and their families took part in the ceremony Thursday morning, to honor the men and women who have served, or are continuing to serve our country.
Camp Nelson is befitting for the ceremony, as it provides a final resting place for many of our nation's heroes and their dependents.
More than 12,000 people are buried at the cemetery.
Several state leaders also took part in the ceremony, which included the placing of a memorial wreath.
After the ceremony, many came to remember their loved ones. Way Thompson and his family came to visit Thompson's brother, a veteran who is buried at Camp Nelson National Cemetary.

Joining the control arm to the steering knuckle, your Gmc Yukon ball joint works as a pivot in-between the suspension and wheels. Subjected to road debris and several other damaging elements, ball joints may break and mess up steering and suspension, as you lose full rein over your car, particularly whenever you drive over humps. You will certainly experience hard steering and poor suspension whenever one of the ball joints breaks.
Clunking noises may be traced to a worn-out ball joint. If your wheels feel like they move loosely and you spot unusual wear patterns somewhere in your tires just like scalloping, you ought to inspect the ball joint and restore this part immediately when necessary. Keeping a busted ball joint isn't safe by any means-you can easily lose great control over your car, especially when cornering or driving over holes and bumps. Put money into a brand-new ball joint that is specially built for the make and model of your motor vehicle and precision-engineered to last for a long time.
We ensure the high quality of Gmc Yukon ball joint choices that we sell here at Parts Train at affordable costs-after all, these OE replacements are supplied by top-rated brands like American Presto, and Ingals Engineering, and RideTech. We make sure that you'll have fun purchasing from us through dependable customer support available 24/7, on-schedule shipping, secure payment options, and up to 1,000,000 parts for sale.

A total of nine children were treated and released from Memorial Hospital after a pickup crashed into a school bus Thursday on Ohio 412 and County Road 198.
But Sandusky County EMS Director Jeff Jackson said responders at the scene were still following mass casualty incident protocol.
"The first crews there do a scene size-up - a field triage," Jackson said. "The most critical (victims) go first and then we work our way to the least critical. We figure out if they're wounded and if there's immediate treatment needed, we do that." ...

We know what you're thinking, but take a closer look at that title. This exposŽ bares all about the first performances of Hollywood's stars in the movies. Remember The Cry Baby Killer? How about A Party at Kitty and Stud's? Or Scudda Hoo! Scudda Hey! Just the inauspicious beginnings for Jack Nicholson, Sylvester Stallone and Marilyn Monroe.
The road to fame is always filled with a few detours, and Their First Time in the Movies takes the biggest stars from every Hollywood era and reconstructs their rise to the top. Author Les Krantz captures the "it" factor for more than 70 actors, charting their intriguing family histories, hidden passions and goofy first gigs in bite-sized bits of information on two-page spreads. Filled with delicious movie arcana, it's fascinating reading for film fans. Who knew that Robert Redford turned to acting after losing interest in a professional baseball career? Or that opera was Meryl Streep's first love? Looking at the full-page, black and white photos from their early days, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see star quality in these gorgeous young thespians. A young John Wayne puts today's heartbreakers to shame; although she was nicknamed "Sophia Toothpick," Ms. Loren radiates sensuality; a dewy Marilyn Monroe looks almost virginal.
After you've read the history on the big-screen-bound, pop in the companion video and DVD to see the actual footage of 30 of the top performers making their debut. Or head out to the local video store you might get a good laugh from a full viewing of Julia Roberts' Blood Red, Harrison Ford's Dead Heat on a Merry-Go-Round or Clint Eastwood's Revenge of the Creature, the highly praised sequel to The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Hey, you've got to start somewhere!

HEBER, Utah (KKCO) The Colorado wildfire season has slowed down, but our neighbors to the west aren't faring as well. Officials are now calling the wildfire near the Jordanelle Reservoir the "Fox Den" fire. It began as three smaller fires Saturday afternoon, and because of high winds quickly burned 200 acres. Some areas are under a mandatory evacuation order, and the Red Cross is assisting residents. At one point Saturday night some 2,000 people were without electricity. So far no structures are reported burned. The fire is now about 5% contained.

Only 15 fathers in the FLDS?
I've turned up some conflicting information as I look into rumors that imprisoned polygamous sect leader Warren Jeffs has handed down an edict saying all children in the community will now be fathered by just 15 men if true, marking a new, extreme level of control over every. single. aspect of his followers' lives.
With a few TV news stories out on this issue (here and here) I thought I'd present for you what I've found so far.
Private investigator Sam Brower said he's spent more than a month looking into the rumor, and is leaning toward believing it.
"I'm still saying it's hearsay and rumor, but the information I have, it's pretty solid," he said.
Brower said when the concept was announced at the church meeting for Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints people who are not yet part of the new United Order, the people were told to stand up and leave if they had a problem with the "revelation." Two to three hundred stood up and walked out, which may have been a risk for them in regard to their standing in the church or could just mean they need more "training."
But Wallace Jeffs, one of Warren's brothers who was kicked out and is now fighting for custody of his kids, says the rumors are bogus.
Citing a close relative who witnessed the original announcement to the new United Order, he says the "revelation" was much more tame. Leaders said just 15 men are qualified to be called father, "nothing to do with breeding or bring forth children," he said.
"I'm not saying they're not capable, but I've never heard it said they would do that," he said. "I think if they did, 90 percent of the women in the group would leave. That goes against everything we've been taught."
On the other hand, Isaac Wyler, a former member of the FLDS who still lives in the community and works there, says he believes it's likely true and the people (who have already been forbidden from sex with their spouses) have been given until the end of the year to accept it. The motivation, he said, might be to fulfill the 1886 John Taylor revelation that not a year should go by where a child isn't born into polygamy.
Willie Jessop, the former spokesman for the sect turned sharp critic, says he's turned up no evidence that it's true.
"We've not been able to confirm any such thing," he said. "There's absolutely nothing out there that can substantiate it."
There you are. With all the conflicting info, I'm not writing a story for print just yet, but I'll keep you up to date as it develops.

Jesse Jane: All American Girl
ExpectationsLet's face it. Jesse Jane is a hot blonde with a great body and beautiful tits who loves to suck cock. You could probably fill an olympic size swimming pool with all the jizz she has inspired. She appears in seven scenes in this DVD. Why wouldn't I be excited?
SummaryI was disappointed by this video. The lighting was good, but the whole movie was shot in slow motion, and the soundtrack was 100% music (and pretty lame music at that). If you (or your lady) want to watch 1 1/2 hours of slow motion sex, then rent it. Otherwise pass on it.
The Cast
The Sex!!!
Jesse Jane and Jerry
Paddling, cunnilingus, standing doggie, BJ, facial.
My impression:
Despite the hint of S&M with the paddling early in the scene, this is couples porn. The whole movie is shot in slow motion. Soothing music plays in the background of this scene. Jesse's ass looks really nice while she's being spanked, and she does a great job of sucking Jerry's boner. When he jerks off on her face, Jesse takes his sticky member into her mouth, and finishes the blowjob. Still the action was too slow and gentle for my taste.
Jesse and Karlie Montana
Undressing, tit play, ass-licking, cunnilingus, candy-cane insertion, fingering, .
My impression:
Karlie looks fantastic naked. She has a pretty face, beautiful natural B-cups, and a tight young ass. Next to Karlie, Jesse looks like Michael Jackson, with her fake boobs, liposuction, and surgically enhanced lips. The scene had a classical music sound track. I would love to see more of Karlie, but the scene didn't do much for me.
Celeste Star
My impression:
Celeste plays with herself through a pair of sheer white wet panties that give us a hint of what lies underneath without revealing too much. Even when she starts fingering herself, the panties stay on. This scene is a great tease, but does not satisfy.
Jesse, Nadia, and Scott Nails
Ass-licking, cunnilingus, tit play, 2-girl BJ, standing doggie, reverse cowgirl, double facial.
My impression
Nadia is very pretty with pert little breasts with nipples that stand at attention during the whole scene. Both girls look great sliding their mouths up and down long stiff rod. Scott pumps his cock into one pussy after another, and Nadia's pussy looks incredible during her reverse cowgirl. She has a ring going through her clit, and is completely shaved. The facial was spoiled by the fact that both girls let Scott's jizz drip out of their mouths rather than swallowing it.
This was probably my favorite scene in the movie.
Cheerleader outfit, stripping, masturbation.
My impression.
Except for a nice close-up of Jesse slapping her pussy, this scene didn't do anything for me.
Jesse, Carli Banks, and Celeste
Undressing, tit play, ass-licking, cunnilingus, fingering.
My impression:
Like so many girls in this movie, Carli is very pretty. She has a lovely face, almost perfect tits, and a tight cunt with a sweet little clit. Still, the scene never really heated up, and it left me wanting more.
Jesse and Scott Nails
Whipped cream, tit play, cunnilingus, fingering, BJ, standing doggie, sideways cowgirl, cum on pie.
My impression:
Jesse gives Scott a great blow job, licking drops of cum and whipped cream off of his cock with equal relish. Scott pounds his cock into Jesse's pussy with joy, but I found myself distracted by Jesse's boob job.
Valerie Vasquez
My impression:
Valerie has large natural-looking boobs that droop a little and a pretty face. Still, her pussy isn't pretty enough for her to star in a solo-scene. The lips lacked clear definition, and there was a little bit of brown on the edges.
Joey and Jerry
Foot play, BJ, fingering, doggie, cunnilingus, missionary, cum on pussy.
My impression:
I'm not a big fan of feet, but if you are, don't bother with this scene, instead check out Jenna Haze Darkside. To my eye, Joey's feet don't look particularly good, and she didn't even clean the bottom of them. To make things worse, there are discolorations on her legs that look like small bruises. Still, the rest of her looks pretty good. She has strong facial features, and her tongue is made to stroke up and down a hard cock. I also liked that Jerry came on her pussy, and then continued fucking her. I find that much sexier than facials.
Jesse and Scott Nails
Seductive glances, BJ, cunnilingus, standing doggie, reverse cowgirl, facial.
My impression:
Jesse looks good in a black bra, and, as always, her big pouty lips look great when they are surrounding a hard dick. Her pussy also looks really nice when it opens up to accept Scott's hardon. It's completely shaved, has a pretty pink color, and is topped off with a nice-sized clit. When Scott is stroking out, her inner lips grab onto his cock, and show themselves nicely to the camera.
Again, she let his semen drip out of her mouth instead of swallowing. But even after he cums, she sucks him like a porn star.
The DVD is light on extras. It has pictures, some trailers, a bio of Jesse, and a slide show.
I like it when porn shows off a woman's body while she's having sex. In addition to using slow motion, this video uses a lot of doggie-style, which can be hot, but doesn't show a lot.
Porn is a very personal matter. You may like slow motion, and you may hate the sounds of porn stars fucking. If so, you may want to check out this DVD. But if your tastes are similar to mine, you should pass.
If you have any questions or comments, please e-mail me.

Schumer adds extreme measures to gun-sellers bill
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 03/16/2013 @ 12:33 am In Politics,U.S. | No Comments
(Breitbart) Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has quietly added a slew of new measures to his self-sponsored gun control bill currently making its way through the Senate.
Schumer has been fighting to get his Protecting Responsible Gun Sellers Act of 2013 (S 374)–now called the Fix Gun Checks Act of 2013–passed into law, but one of the early problems with the bill was that it was essentially a shell or placeholder bill, incomplete at the time of introduction.
Ostensibly, Schumer's bill is meant to change current laws to require that all firearm sales initiate a background check on the buyer before the sale is finalized. Currently, private citizens are exempt from performing background checks when they sell guns to other private citizens.

Who needs Big Ben when ya got Hollywood in your backyard?
Rumors have been swirling recently that Victoria and David Beckham are planning to ditch the U.S. and jump the pond back to Great Britain.
However, we're happy to report that...
Our favorite former Spice Girl and her hunky soccer stud hubby aren't going anywhere. L.A. is home sweet home for them and those adorable three sons of theirs, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.
"We love living here and we have no plans to move back to the U.K.," Victoria told us at last night's BritWeek 2010 Charity Event at the Beverly Wilshire hotel in Beverly Hills.
"The boys have a lot of friends and David loves being back in the U.S. so much," she said. "It's a really, really, really good home. This is our home. We're really happy here."
So happy, in fact, that even David's recent knee injury isn't getting the fam down! "He's hobbling around the house right now," Victoria said, "but he's doing good."
With a chuckle, she added, "I left him on homework duty!"

I've read the phone manual 3 times, search tips and tricks, and the internet, and I've played with the phone for an hour (profiles, phone status, hidden menus, IMEI number, etc.) I can't believe I can't find what I'm looking for.I just put in a new pay as you go SIM card, and I want to see the phone number that the phone recognizes itself as. Is there no "show own number" feature on the K750i?With older/other phones, it was always in or near the network NAM settings.I can't believe that this phone wouldn't have it, and even more that I can't find it.Can anyone offer some help?
(I know I can call to another phone and use the caller id to see the number, but I'm thinking it must be on the phone somewhere)
How do I check for the CID number on the W810i.View 4 Replies View Related
What do you think is the best SE camera phone? Is there any phone that "has it all"? And I mean mostly hardware features like xenon flash and lens protection, not software ones like best pic or face detection. I'm searching for a successor to my K750i.View 14 Replies View Related

how can i hack someones pictures from phone. i have sony erisscon k750i, and i found 1 program, and i download it
but i can't steal pictures.
I just broke my K750i joystick so everything I can do is use the shortcut keys. The problem is, since I've updated the firm of k750i to w800i and now I have the walkman utility, I need my joystick to navigate there! I erased all the songs and uploaded new ones but I need to choose "Artists" or "Tracks" to update the songlist.
So: is there a way to control my phone from the PC using the USB cable (or something...)?
My trusty old k750i is a very good camera as well but it has its flaws.I'm not complaining about the resolution or general pictire quality, it is sufficient for most of my cam shots. The real problem for the cam is action shots. Shutter lag is horrible. Of course I've been spoiled lately by a fine SLR cam with close to no shutter lag at all but before that I've been shooting quite a lot with simpler point'n shoots that were much much better in this department than the sluggish k750i.I would also very much appreciate good performance in low-light situations, this is always a big problem for simple cams like phonecams of course.As far as I love the old k750i, I'd like to find a worthy replacement now. It should be just as snappy in the user interface as the k750i, just as reliable in basic functions, and have a very good camera like what I have now but FAR faster.Suggestions are much appreciated. I might add that I have lots of computers around so I don't really need a "smartphone"-type phone. Just a very good cameraphone.View 14 Replies View Related

So I've decided to do something with my phone, give it some different color. I tried to do with something conservative, but silver and grey is conservative and elegant enough to be the original color. Didn't wanna mess up the "image" of the phone just make it a little more interesting. Well its still in the process, which means that I have to wait until the paint completely cures , before I make it a little shinier, but here is a little taste, see how you like it. The side buttons are painted as well, basically everything except the back panel cause the little camera slider is not really meant to be taken apart. By the way the colors are Tamiya "pearl white" and Tamiya "racing blue".View 14 Replies View Related
I have 1 EMPTY BOARD k750i which is totally dead boot. When the 1st time i try to test the boot, SEMC Tool still can detect the phone, once the phone has detected, i unplug the cable because just want to test the boot, see whether the phone can be revive or not. Now my problem is, SEMC Tool totally cannot detect the phone, when i select the flash file and click flash, software wont detect it and show 'Unknown Phone. Try Recover Phone 1st. Then i try on "Recover Phone", SEMC Tools show "Phone Recover Done, now can flash the phone,but result also same, unable to start the flashing process. I try on KZF_v1.8b with crack UFS_HWK, software will detect the boot, but only show the M CU ID, without the CID number. KZF also prompt to recover phone 1st, but cant be done, always result failed with recover function. Is it any solution to revive this kind of phone ? Or maybe need put some power voltage the flash the phone ?
I am using UFSx, k750i cable with dummy battery attach to the cable.I also try with SEMC Tool Empty Board function, also cannot flash the phone, i really have no idea how to repair this phone.
When I delete a SMS message my SE K750i will reuse that filename. Is there a way to prevent that.
E.g. I have currently 5 sms messages.
Then I delete
Then I send 2 new sms. My directory will now show
....sm_FFFFFFFF_00032.sms ---- new sms - reused filename
What I want is to prevent my phone to reuse sm_FFFFFFFF_00032.sms filename, so after sending 2 new sms I would like to have:
Any configuration files that could do the trick? I'm using FAR and SEPF.
So what I want to do is use my ADSL Broadband connection on my phone. How do I want to do this? My laptop is connected to my modem via a LAN cable. My phone is connected to my laptop via a DCU-60 cable or bluetooth. So can I use a COM port or Bluetooth PAN or something so that my phone uses my ADSL connection? I am almost sure this is possible, I read it somewhere a very long time ago, I think it was done with a K750i.View 3 Replies View Related

From about a week's time I'm facing this issue. Also it is not happening for all the numbers. Only for few numbers the phone is not recognizing the contact. (I have checked the contact and both the name and number are present). When I clock the options and select Use Number and when I select the Call option, the phone recognizes the number and displays the name of the person when calling.

Smith Cards 1-Under-Par 71 to Lead Preseason Junior at St. James Plantation Buchanan Ahead in Girls Division at The Members Club Course
SOUTHPORT, N.C. Trey Smith of Virginia Beach, Va., had two birdies on the back nine on his way to 1-under-par 71 and a two-shot lead after the first round of the Preseason Junior at St. James Plantation. Samantha Buchanan of Bluffton, S.C., used a boost in her short game to pace the field in the Girls Division with a 10-over-par 82. Both players hold leads while playing in their first American Junior Golf Association tournament.
Conducted by the AJGA, the Preseason Junior at St. James Plantation is a 36-hole stroke play event being held at St. James Plantation The Members Club Course. The 93-player field features players from 19 states. The Boys Division is playing St. James Plantation The Members Club Course at 6,704 yards, while the Girls Division is playing at 5,764 yards.
Smith played the front nine with absolute consistency. He hit every fairway and green, and two-putted every hole on his way to an even-par 36. His back nine was propelled by a strong start on the first few holes.
I made a long par putt on No. 11 and that's what got me going, Smith said. Then I birdied the next hole.
Brantley Kushner of Leesburg, Va., and Minchung Kim of Cary, N.C., both shot 1-over-par 73 and are tied for second heading into the final round. Clay Brown of Davidson, N.C., sits alone in fourth place after carding a 2-over-par 74. Jay Carroll of Upper Arlington, Ohio, Robert Zieser of Myrtle Beach, S.C., and Ethan Wall of Brielle, N.J., all share fifth place after finishing at 3-over-par 75.
Buchanan relied on her short game all day long as she was able to jump out to a two-stroke lead in the Girls Division. She plans to continue to attack the flagsticks tomorrow and capitalize on opportunities as they arise.
My short game was actually pretty good, Buchanan said. I had two different putts from the fringe that I put just on the edge of the cup.
Devon Compton of Rochester, Mich., will begin the final round in second place after finishing with a 12-over-par 84. Allyson Markiewicz of Charlotte, N.C. follows in third place at 13-over-par 85.
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf. The AJGA provides valuable exposure for college golf scholarships, and has an annual junior membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 junior golfers from 49 states and 30 countries. To ensure scholarship opportunities for all junior golfers who have the skill, the AJGA created the Achieving Competitive Excellence (ACE) Grant program to provide financial assistance to young players in need.
Titleist, the AJGA's National Sponsor, has been the catalyst and driving force behind the Association's success since 1989. Rolex Watch USA, which is in its third decade of AJGA support, became the inaugural AJGA Premier Partner in 2004. In 2007, after 12 years of support, Polo Ralph Lauren became the AJGA's second Premier Partner.
AJGA alumni have risen to the top of amateur, collegiate and professional golf. Former AJGA juniors have compiled more than 400 victories on the PGA and LPGA Tours. AJGA alumni include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Stewart Cink, Cristie Kerr, Paula Creamer and Morgan Pressel.
The final round of the Preseason Junior at St. James Plantation begins Sunday, April 11 at St. James Plantation The Members Club Course with an 8 a.m. shotgun start. For more information about the Preseason Junior at St. James Plantation, call Tournament Headquarters at (770) 861-0519.
The Foundation
The Achieving Competitive Excellence (ACE) Grant program provides financial assistance to junior golfers who wish to play in AJGA events. Its goal is to give top-flight golf opportunities to young golfers regardless of financial resources. This program helps to fulfill the AJGA's mission of developing young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf.
What is Leadership Links?
Leadership Links is a new program whereby the AJGA is able to further its mission to help develop young men and women by teaching charitable giving skills and service-oriented practices at an early age. This program gives juniors all the tools necessary to donate their time, talent and resources to local charities and the AJGA youth development programs. Please click here to learn more about the program and the different opportunities available.

The former Troup & Pluto photography studio captured images of Stark Countians for decades. In storage are tens of thousands of proofs and negatives from 1957 to 2006, which now have been made available to the public.
The second floor of Spike's Shine Shop and its sister business, Coffee and Chrome, is a treasure trove of memories that could touch thousands of local people.
The former Troup & Pluto photography studios once occupied the building at 3145 Tuscarawas St. W. In storage there are tens of thousands of proofs and negatives, dating as far back as 1957 and up to 2006.
Owners Annie O'Toole and Mike Pastore opened their businesses — a used-motorcycle showroom that also offers restoration, detailing and accessories, and the adjacent coffee shop — Oct. 3.
Upstairs, rooms of file cabinets and boxes hold proofs, negatives and digital files of senior photos, weddings, family portraits and more. The public is welcome to them in exchange for a toy or monetary donation to Toys for Tots.
O'Toole has spent countless hours organizing and preparing for what is sure to be an all-out blitz on the business. She knew it was the right thing to do because of her own experience this past year.
When she took possession of the building in January and discovered all the photos, her mother, Mary O'Toole, asked her to find the senior photos of Annie's brother, Eddie, who had died two years earlier.
"I was in there for hours," said Annie O'Toole, who wore a miner's hat with a light and braved the old building, which, at the time, had no heat, electricity or water.
She found them. Then in September, her mother again asked her to go through the boxes and find her brother's National Honor Society photos from Timken High School.
She found those, too.
O'Toole recalled how happy it made her mom (who made copies of the pictures for family members) and what she said about the photos that re-mained.
"She said to me, 'You will never know how much they mean to people,' and she died the next week," O'Toole said.
After their businesses opened, O'Toole found an employee, whose to-do list said to clean up the second floor, moving boxes of proofs to a Dumpster. That was the day, Oct. 21, she posted the proofs on Craigslist under "free."
Since then, more than 150 people have turned up to search.
Left behind
Tom Lazaroff bought Troup & Pluto in 1990 and took possession of the proofs and negatives and added those from his Perry Township studio.
"We would keep all the negatives in case someone wanted to reorder," he explained. He said, on occasion, people would lose their photos to floods, fire or other disasters, while others would see an old family photo and want a print. "It was another revenue source."
It also is common practice to keep only proofs of photos that a customer ordered. If a family portrait sitting produced 50 pictures, but only 10 were ordered, for example, the other 40 would have been destroyed.
Page 2 of 3 - When Lazaroff sold his business to Lifetouch in 2006, the company, he said, did not want his files, and "I was faced with the task of what to do with them."
Following a column note in The Repository about the business being sold, many people, he said, came in to buy their files. He ran advertisements in the newspaper and on local radio, "to further get them into the hands of people." Wedding files were sold for $25 and portrait files for $15.
When he left the building, he called a shredding company for a quote on destroying the rest of the files. The $3,000 price was too steep, and Lazaroff decided to leave them there. He believed the building's new owners would destroy the building and throw away the files.
He said the 414 file drawers could hold as many as half a million files.
Gone viral
Word of the files has spread quickly by word-of-mouth, on Facebook and other social networks.
Carole Byrd, a secretary at Timken High School, heard about it from co-workers. She spent a lunch hour with them finding proofs. Senior pictures of her son. Brian, a 1993 Jackson graduate, and daughter, Vanessa, a 1987 graduate, quickly were found.
But, it was the pageant photos from Vanessa's try for Miss Ohio USA taken by Lazaroff that really pleased Byrd.
Vanessa was killed in a car accident in 1992, when her friend who was driving fell asleep at the wheel.
"I was really happy to have those pictures," she said.
A Facebook posting brought Tracy Jeffries in last week to find her senior portrait proofs. A Perry High School graduate, she was able to find the school and graduation years for herself and her brothers and retrieve their proofs fairly easily.
"Annie has taken such care to make sure you can go up and see them," Jeffries said. "She could have just put them in a Dumpster."
For her part, O'Toole says there are a million reasons why she didn't.
"And every one of them is tied to someone's memory," she said. "Every last one of them."
Want your proofs?
If you want to look through the pictures taken between 1957 and 2006 by Troup & Pluto or Tom Lazaroff, bring a new toy or monetary donation for Toys For Tots to Spike's Shine Shop Coffee & Chrome, 3145 Tuscarawas St. W in Canton, according to this schedule:
Mondays through Fridays 7 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Saturdays 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
For more information, call Spike's at 330-456-7745 or Coffee & Chrome at 330-452-7476
Troup & Pluto: A brief history
Walter Troup started Troup Studio in his parents' Canton Township home in 1947 with his wife, Norma Jean.
Page 3 of 3 - The business of photographing high school seniors and weddings grew quickly, and two years later, they moved into a rented storefront. Soon after, Troup partnered with Harry Pluto and changed the business name to Troup & Pluto.
The partners built a studio in Canton in 1960 and began investing in processing equipment. To offset costs, they took in processing jobs from other photographers. That business became Buckeye Color Lab in 1970, and it eventually outgrew their Canton building.
They purchased a North Canton facility in 1979 and continued the lab business as Buckeye Color Lab. Walter's son, Steve, is president.
Troup & Pluto sold the Canton studio in 1990 to photographer Tom Lazaroff, who also had a Perry Township studio. He sold to Lifetouch of Minneapolis in 2006.

Here is the latest over-the-air (OTA) channel line-up for the various stations presented by TheNewsCenter:
49.1 (or 15.1)
Suddenlink: 104 HD/4 SD
WTAP-D2 (CBS in SD):
49.2 (or 15.2)
Suddenlink: 5
WTAP-D3 (Fox PKB in SD):
49.3 (or 15.3)
Suddenlink: 14
WTAP-D4 PinPoint Weather:
49.4 (or 15.4)
Suddenlink: 125
WOVA-Fox Parkersburg (HD):
Suddenlink: 114 HD
Suddenlink: 105 HD
WIYE-D2 MyNetwork (My5):
Suddenlink: 97
Most of these stations are also carried on Dish and DirecTV in Wood, Washington and Pleasants counties only.
Satellite customers living in other counties will get their "home stations," meaning the network affiliates from the communities that have, traditionally, had the most viewing from those counties.
For example:
Satellite customers in Ritchie County, WV, get their NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliates from Clarksburg.
Satellite customers in Wirt County, WV, get their NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliates from Charleston-Huntington.
Satellite customers in Athens, Morgan and Noble Counties, OH, get their NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliates from Columbus.
Update: August 2012
Gray Television's new stations are now on the air in the Parkersburg-Marietta area.
WIYE digital channel 47… and WOVA digital channel 22 … were officially activated for testing purposes on Tuesday, August 21, 2012.
"About six years ago, we only had an NBC affiliate," says TheNewsCenter's VP, Roger Sheppard. "In 2006, we added our FOX and MyNetwork stations. A few months ago, we activated a new PinPoint Weather Channel, to provide around-the clock radar and weather information to our viewers who do not have cable or satellite service. On Labor Day, we'll launch our new CBS station, making us a five-station market."
TheNewsCenter is the new name that Gray Television will use in the Mid-Ohio Valley, to refer to all of its various properties, including this webchannel. The webchannel's main address will become www.TheNewsCenter.tv in the next couple of weeks but you'll still be able to access it through www.wtap.com. (More info to come.)
Area residents who rely on antennas to receive television signals, can go ahead and scan in these new channels NOW, so they will be ready to go when the transition occurs on Sept. 3.
"On that morning, we will turn on our CBS station's actual programming on WIYE-TV, digital channel 47.1," Sheppard says. Right now, the station is running a CBS 47 logo and music to help folks know when they have the channel scanned in.
FOX Parkersburg, which has been available for several years in standard definition on digital channel 15.2, is now available in high definition on digital channel 22, WOVA-TV. The 15.2 signal will cease on Sept. 3rd.
My5, which has been on 15.3 for the past few years, is now on digital channel 47.2. The 15.3 signal will also end on September 3rd.
WTAP's new PinPoint Weather channel, which has been available on 15.4, will move up to 15.2 when the FOX and My5 stations move to their new positions.
These channels will be carried on most, if not all, cable and satellite systems serving the valley. Some of the channel numbers have not yet been determined.
Dish has already announced that it will replace its current out-of-market CBS station (WDTV-TV) with WIYE on the same channel number: five. That carriage will begin before the end of August.
DirecTV plans to launch the new CBS station in HD on its channel 47. No word as to whether it will continue carrying WBNS from Columbus, OH.
"It's entirely up to the cable and satellite companies whether or not they continue carrying any out-of-market CBS stations," Sheppard says. "It's their business decision, not ours."
Suddenlink Cable is planning to include the new CBS station, as is Zito Media, whose cable systems serves Warner, OH. Discussions are continuing with CAS and Time Warner Cable.
If you have any questions, or run into an problems finding these new over-the-air channels, please contact Roger Sheppard at 304-481-8110.

I think her topline will muscle up a little the longer you are doing slow work with her getting her collected and rounded. Top Sail Cody bred horses are build a little long and have a higher tail set than other reiners but they make great reiners and have a big stop.
I think she will be fun for little local shows, at least if she doesn't work out for reining you can do plenty of other things on her
