Conspiracy?

o  Well into a long period of 'no front license plates' on motor vehicles, resulting from a "Do you want to pay for two metal license plates?" influence-networking demand-call strategy (non-disclosed 'poll'), the SBA and Federal Stimulus Programs among other funding sources may be asked at this late date to back home/small-business license-plate waterproof/rustproof laminates option using images of purchased single plate.  Has pedestrian death-rate data been compiled during one-plate period, plus driver-confusion death-rates from collisions?   --  Will such death-rates, caused by demand-call strategy, be used to justify laminate-demand strategies?

o  The yellow-painted bike frame is no longer standing in its original creekside position.  However, two pairs of shoes lie in the Tun'a Creek waterstream in the E. Washington Street bridge area  --  one low-heel coral-colored and the other off-white flats.  A brand-new small pink-and-sparkly toddler shoe attracts attention on sidewalk beside west-side Davis Street at the base of a telephone pole, intersection with Forman Street.

Last day -- global 'special' historical palm-tree zones viewable within the Degolia PA mucousal oracle-bead chronicle, together with multi-species linkages causing microclimate effects, might include air pollution. Such organization meetings now routinely include micro-climate data without, however, any reference to oracle-bead archaeological artifact as climate-change impetus.

warm and humid walk through Callahan Park

The dead woodchuck/groundhog was gone from its position beside Bennett Brook, and hope that it was not simply garbage-binned was evident.  There were fewer wild cherries lying on the pathways that extend through the parklands, meaning that a duty to collect and plant them is perhaps now in force.  School has resumed in the region, pre-Labor Day, and the park swimming pool is locked up and empty  --  as if the valley's main purpose is to accommodate and train children, who however somewhat predictably die from classroom overcrowding and/or the demands of locally-housed troop members pressured to write a book (never forthcoming) about the unusual reverse-polarity Tun'a Valley environs.

The Bradford Era dated 8/26/2010 gives a page-two article titled, 'Carnegie Mellon to suspend Greek program', from Pittsburgh, "...masters program it began in Athens in 2002...in information networking...the foreign campus... ."  Because informal continental searchs to find a match with the Degolia PA mucousal oracle-bead artifact have been active without disclosure, often with the belief (and hope) that the artifact was/is a type of edible salamander egg, quite a number of other regional/world activity 'fronts' (that, i.e., might also hope to set up marijuana/cannabis-sativa cultivation areas as well) are no doubt being identified and curtailed in favor of planned legal, formal investigation venues.

The SAS Bulletin (Fall 2010), Volume 33, Number 3) gives a front-page editorial that summarizes "...biochemical analyses of stable isotopes...used to answer questions about human behavior...38th International Symposium on Archaeometry, held in Tampa FL this past spring...Robert Tykot's special session about the isotopic analyses of human remains...revised recovery techniques now include microsampling, there is always a detrimental impact on the human remains.... ." by Jay VanderVeen, Editor.

oh yeah, the big yellow fork

Also during 'return to the High Road', a painted-yellow bicycle front-wheel metal 'fork' was seen lying in the middle of the dirt road that extends from East Avenue to Hillside Avenue, while moving southward to pick up the lost sweatshirt above High Street.

The main bicycle frame appears to be propped against the Tun'a Creek wall without wheels, also painted bright yellow, directly beside the waterstream below the Davis Street bridge here in Bradford, PA, the other side of Main Street  --  perhaps a type of hazing activity that affects population focus within Bradford city environs.

Tree shown remains from +/-2007 storms jammed against Davis Street bridge in the East Bradford PA area, moving slowly northward with the waterstream Tun'a Creek flow.

Day one near Bennett Street

Very nice day.  Road work continues in School Street traffic lanes.  BAPL (the local public library) was not crowded.  A yard sale has no books for sale yet.  The walk to and through Callahan Park was a breeze, with dead woodchuck seen lying beside Bennett Brook in the past smackdown area.

More collapsed wild cherries and bare seeds, more rotten apples tossed into the brook waters.  Photo shows mushrooms with brain-like markings.

Callahan Park under dark and drizzling clouds

The tape draped as a barrier in the school parking lot at the Bennett Brook ford-zone, just outside the Callahan Park parking-lot gate, is gone today.  Collapsed wild cherries and rotting green apples litter the brookside walkway and grass, more picked up from the ground today to toss into the waterstream.  Plus, woody asparagus stems were tossed into a small rivulet channeling water from Brook Street neighborhood to brook, flowing beneath large, aging metal grill at park east entrance.   (Are bok choy stems in the same category of foreign influence as Asian carp?  The Code-man will let us know.}

Other views toward Degolia, PA:  Above photo (made weeks ago) shows new addition to Bradford Hospital, the entire premises now lettered 'BRMC'; the question is, will a bigger hospital mean more episiotomies?  Original idea was to put an extension in a more stable outlying municipality than the reverse-polarity Tun'a Creek locale.
Next photo shows evening perspective from School Street Elementary School parking lot (between Pearl Street and North Center Street), and neon flame from the Zippo Manufacturers premises addressed blocks away, southward, along Barbour Street in Bradford PA not far from Interstate Parkway   --  perhaps a cultural hint that neon would be more appropriate than an open flame to light 'n' view the oracle-bead archaeological site a few miles distant--a public hint from predecessor artifact discoverer(s).

Possible streamside wall repair

The survey scaffolding is gone from Bennett Brook wall at W Washington Street.  The scaffolding was standing a few weeks then removed.  Gnarly small tree trunk and roots have been bared among streamside wall-stones dislodged during past years.

whoops

The Bradford Area Public Library is open only until 2:00 p. m. Saturdays  --  a cost-cutting measure during state funding-reduction times --  so the doors were locked when attempt was made to go in and read a newspaper.

A walk through Callahah Park as located beside the newly-expanded hospital was unusually quiet and the parklands were almost empty --  apparently a family reunion was scheduled with informal telephone-pole notice displayed on Poplin Avenue but the situation was not clear about formal reservations or whether the entire park was reserved.  Motorcycles and riders  were grouped within the nearby high school parking lot, and a yellow plastic ribbon was stretched across the Bennett Brook vehicle entry/exit-access ford zone technically outside parklands proper.

The neighborhoods in the hospital/high-school/parklands zone have been ruined throughout past decades, and it is suspected that oil-companies' resident flux around a company-claimed mansion has contributed to the disappearance of West Bradford housing (as a result from fires) and families.  Indeed, as casual walk through the parklands proceeded past the family grouped among the picnic tables, a scramble (as rotten green apples were picked up to toss in to brook-waters creatures) left one small child prone on the brookside walkway.  The small and dense green apples, some slightly reddened, are usually left lying on the ground where-ever they are found on public lands to forestall conflict although many think otherwise.

back to the High road

Reversed yesterday's walk, beginning from the public library again addressed West Washington Street.  Proceeded from the library to Main Street along Mechanic Street and walked to the end where it intersects with High Street and East Main Street; made note about roadway hand-sized hole in asphalt nearby Eagles Club premises, again +/- one foot deep; then further along East Main Street to cross and step up first 'disappeared'-home-lot concrete stairway east side to 'disappearing' sidewalk, where lay an intact Bud Light bottle.  Pushed through short path bearing old acorns; picked some up and pocketed for dirt road passage.  Passed working and noisy oil rig (that also dissuades roaming wildlife whether any oil is collected or not) at second concrete stairway to lot; picked up broken Bud Light brown beer-bottle pieces at third concrete stairway to empty lot  --  the oil rig cable-movements are noisy and there is also pipe-ramming noise/action (and danger) a few yards directly upslope from sidewalk.



Returned to East Avenue where both oil-rig noise and traffic noise were significantly loud nearby General Roofing Company, the Route 219-bypass traffic adding to the non-abated oil-rig noise  --  meaning more not less machine-noise overall in that neighborhood.  Walked uphill until again reaching dirt road where 'California'-lettered sweatshirt lay; folded garment and placed in grocery bag with seedling yet embedded in hood, then added peat pot to stabilize plant.  Scattered acorns below squirrel in tree, and carrot-tops et al in muddy ditch among animal tracks. Regained Hillside Avenue, moved downhill to High Street and left the bag/contents in a small shaded area beside the 'high side' elevated walkway.  Made photos, shadowed oil-industry equipment plus views toward Degolia PA.  Descended along Elm Street through Tun'a Valley to other side, made more photos of views toward Degolia and again walked up stony trail behind West Corydon Street at Tibbitts Avenue (knife in tree is gone); continued along dirt road to Tuna Avenue.

Descended Tuna Avenue, then walked along West Corydon Street toward downtown Bradford PA, removing a supermarket shopping-cart from inner placement beside metal guard rail, above visible grassy pathway extending directly downslope to the creek; pulled cart to TOPS Market.  Trudged to SaveALot to buy popsicles, then returned to Pleasant Street family home.

Treasure trove: The Cravens collection - The Buffalo News

Growing up (sort of) in Bradford, PA, the Craven family resided two blocks away. After discovering a rare and tiny mucousal oracle-bead chronicle beneath a limestone roadside-rest structure some five miles away in Degolia, PA, naturally (to me) I approached one of the Cravens in schools to ask if the tiny bead-chronicle was used as a reference during past Craven activities in South America -- and was kicked with a sturdy shoe by another girl as if I was a Muslim approaching a lackey of the Queen of England. Years later, Craven telephoned with a "report to" and I explained about the artifact, whereupon he was sent to West Point Academy without stooping to confer or concur and died.

the other side of Tun'a Valley

After stopping in to read a few newspapers and magazines at Bradford Area Public Library, today's walk included High Street area oil-well equipment observation  --  newly painted green  concurrent with the newly-renovated Route 219 roadway-bypass  --  plus an uphill walk along King Street past Cottage Row to Hillside Avenue from High Street, where other aging oil-well equipment can also be seen.  Hillside Avenue ends at yet another dirt road that extends above High Street to Main Street intersection and beyond above East Main Street to East Avenue beside General Roofing Company; a foot-long live mottled-colors snake was seen on the dirt road not far from a discarded dark-blue sweatshirt lettered 'California' that has a small seedling growing through the hood among other such plants embedded in soil around the garment.  More oil-well equipment can be seen, including a bundle of metal pipes and spigot nearby, plus tank-type containers and drill-rigs.

Debris alongside dirt road extending from Hillside Avenue signifies readiness to prop, frame and collect artifact from Degolia PA ceremonial/archaeological site, but leavings also are 'examples of the culture' demanded during influence-networking tactics.

Regaining the sidewalk beside East Main Street was a bit hazardous during the late afternoon post-workday traffic that curves to and from downtown Bradford, Pennsylvania.  Concrete steps that in the past fronted houses now 'disappeared' lead directly to the roadway without leeway berm, and in places end where overgrown foliage now covers them.  The walk was continued along East Main Street to South Kendall Avenue, that leads to Jackson Avenue via the berm nearby through-traffic bypass exit/entry ramps.  Again today, a flame was visible from one of the slender stackpoles within American Refining Group premises alongside Tun'a Creek.

Description of a small pothole across from ARG at a Jackson Avenue was test-messaged to the local city Public Works Department, while again moving past the large tree-stumps in yards beside Jackson Avenue.  Sitting to rest at a stable and solid wall along Jackson Avenue at Sanford Street, a tiny purple string-underpant was seen lying atop the wall where some few food containers were also scattered in the grass.

Saturday in the downtown Bradford PA area

Returned to the East Corydon Street yard sale near Sehman's Auto; searched the small stacks of books set out on the porch in cardboard boxes, explaining about research attempts.  Proceeded to TOPS Market, passing the former 'Old Post Office', a dignified and spacious building with large windows and stonework steps  -- very different from the cubby-like USPS set-up now operational on Boylston Street.  Exactly six portable toilets were set in a row a few steps from the supermarket entrance, together with a hand-sanitizing station.

Racked beside the check-out line, The National Enquirer presented a front-page story-line that purported to describe Angelina Jolie's return to a mental hospital.  Duh  --  is she French-speaking or not (Brad)?

Footsteps casually strolled around the West Washington Street corner with Mechanic Street, where a body-piercing 'business' was in the past housed within a fine brick building, passed by a small dead sparrow slumped over a metal drainage grate  --  definitely a position worth suspicion.  A pile of fast-food julienne-fried potatoes somehow dumped near Moonan's car wash addressed West Washington Street have slowly been carried, a fistfull at a time, to be scattered in Tun'a Creek for summertime critters to ingest.  What appears to be a white fiber noose is submerged in the creek water nearby now-empty demolition (former dance studio upstairs) site located beside brick building  --  about ten feet long looped around a streambed stone.

[Note:  the moved 'body-piercing' business now appears to be housed within 'Primal Studios' recording-studio premises, if lettering on windows is notice.]

The peninsula city of San Francisco, CA, also presents an Italian Festival each year with parade, in a neighborhood not far from a 'special' tall palm-tree in Golden Gate Park, viewable as 'Image #1 baby-palm-tree' at the surface of the Degolia PA mucousal oracle-bead chronicle found beneath a limestone roadside-rest decades ago.  Image #1, the first of a strand of historical images  --  some ancient  --  coiled within the waxy/gel oracle-bead artifact, appears to be a 'speck' of palm-dust nearby a South Bradford Farmers' Market when sighted close by the streamside limestone structure.

Nine-volt batteries were successfully purchased for the smoke/carbon-monoxide alarms here.  An unusual minivan plastered with football and other sports images was seen leaving the BAPL parking lot.

another West Corydon Street walk



Top photo  --  2006.  Other photo  --  2010.

After leaving a 'load' of recyclable grocery bags at TOPS Market collection container, and picking up  broken brown beer bottle glass beside the telephone company premises addressed East Corydon Street, a walk along West Corydon Street from South Avenue area gave views upward toward stony trail extending to dirt roads above homes addressed along the hillside.  Tuna Street, which extends directly up/downslope from West Corydon Street in Bradford PA, has a number of obvious potholes in the eroded asphalt that has covered the red brick remaining beneath.  Shown above is former walkway with metal railing that yet extends along the south side of the upslope streetside environs, now blocked with overgrown foliage continuing until the present time.  Also shown is flaked rock alongside stony trail, approaching Tuna Avenue from South Avenue.

The walk to Dorothy Lane alongside West Corydon Street proceeded beside north-side guardrails, and passing vehicular drivers were nice enough to straddle the painted lane marker without grazing me, since the hillside is directly downslope from the guardrails without so much as a mousie path.  A gated and level section of land on the north side of West Corydon Street might eventually be appropriated to hold a children's playground for local residents and inhabitants.  Concrete steps lead to now-empty lot.

Dorothy Lane passes through the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford Campus installation, and one of the Tuna Valley Trails in the region crosses over the Lane; the Lane extends to West Washington Street and a fairly short walk past the three city cemeteries to return to Bradford city environs.  Shown below is creek below West Corydon Street.

One recently-alive skunk was found slain alongside the eastbound traffic lane beside West Washington Street not far from one of the cemeteries, the muscles of one hind leg completely exposed with furry skin split and internal organs exposed; the fly-infested creature was removed from the asphalt roadway with a plastic bread bag and carried to telephone pole at Wagner Avenue intersection.  Skunks naturally burrow and breed along and within the banks of  Bennett Brook and other locale waterstreams.  The remains of a small feathery bird were also seen near Gates Hollow Road along with a mottle-pattern snakeskin.  Another dead skunk was seen also along south side West Washington Street across from the Jewish cemetery at the 'city line', also with flesh exposed.

a different memorial day outing

Today time was scheduled to see family gravesites at McKean Memorial Park in Lafayette Township, Mount Alton vicinity.  The late afternoon drive took us through Custer City, Degolia, and Lewis Run, Pennsylvania, to the cemetery where many individuals have been interred dating from the 1800s.  The cemetery has two drive-through stonework columns, a series of dusty dirt roads, a pond with visiting Canadian geese, and many memorial grave markers (all flat), some with attached vases.

Today billowing smoke was seen rising just outside the cemetery boundary.  Some graves have new-style composite grave markers which, however, are sinking at one edge.  Other graves are now barely visible within the grassy turf, such as one lettered "Reverend...Burton" nearby the pond (no doubt a former sinkhole); no running water is visible within the immediate cemetery grounds.  Dandelion flowers and mushrooms are scattered among the graves, which are maintained by the McKean County Cemetery Association.  Small wild-animal feces littered one section near the pond.  The setting is rural woodlands rural flatland.

Creekbed shopping-cart retrieval

Voila! the shopping cart is removed from Tun'a Creek where it did lay below the three-pugs house addressed Miller Street. The footing is always slippery in the sunny Davis St. waterstream environs in the summertime because algae and silt accumulate in the creekbed.  Otherwise, the creekside concrete drainage areas make a simple walk to the crashed cart from the inclined accessway, that was then pulled across the creek through ankle-deep water and over good-sized stones to the sidewalk and further to TOPS parking lot bearing some slimy mud.

Note was made of sidewalk condition that extends a few steps from Davis Street bridge walkway to Hanley Park, where asphalt applied between skateboard court and bridge walkway has stretched, leaving fissures +/- a foot deep that might turn an ankle.

A large tree trunk is now lodged beneath the bridge, the remains of a once-live tree now devoid of branches and foliage.

All aqua-socks in that area have disappeared except a pair of large size 12-14s in CVS store.

more bangs

three big bangs this evening

This early afternoon I walked over to the Callahan Park area to check out a garage sale that advertised 'books' amongst its wares.  The street where the garage sale was found --  off Willard Avenue  --  is also located near a beer distributor that sported two lengthy cigarette drops beside one entrance, in an enclosed-and-mulched decorative bush area; those were photographed as a local police officer watched.  A short walk along the opposite end of Willard Avenue passed by the backside of the so-called 'Jewish Cemetery' addressed West Washington Street, which now has many newish stone monuments standing within its small metal-fenced space, not far from Bennett Brook where scaffolding now stands as preparation to survey a crumbling waterstream wall.

Additionally, the source of a cluster of seeded blackberries (stages of fruition randing from white/green to dark purple) found on a screen in the garage after an evening of thumps and bumps heard, was seen to be a thorny blackberry plant bent streetward along Poplin Avenue not far from the city park.  Missing plantparts may have been pulled from the stem-top flattened on the asphalt.  Following a McKean County PA District Nine basketball championship won by past local high school Owls team, various demand-call strategies using player name 'Knott' (purveyor of seedless jams from CA) have been privately/secretly prevalent among some populations.


Small rock slabs lay beside Poplin Avenue, north from West Washington Street, one flaked/separated not far from Willard Avenue (photos taken last week in June 2010).  Aging oil-well rig yet stands nearby the Jewish cemetery, beside Willard Avenue; divided mudhole and antler-like branch also nearby cemetery.

It's about 6:30 p. m. here in the Bradford PA city locale, and three loud gunshot bangs were just heard across the Tun'a Valley, two more than heard the night before last after national journalism reported an injurious grizzly bear encounter in the western United States (MO).
