How to Put Letters in a Circle... Using the Polar Coordinates Filter on the Free Online Photo Editor Pixlr/e/

To Start: In any Paint type program Make a .jpg File with Large Block Letters at the Top...  I used Paint dot Net 

These Letters started out as Normal Height but I Selected the Letters and used Edit/Cut and Edit/Paste into a New Layer SO I COULD STRETCH THEM TO BE EXTRA TALL... 

Then I uploaded The image to the Pixlr/e/ Program online... and Used the Polar Coordinates Filter... with Standard Settings...

It is Possible to Put Big Black Letters on a White Background Using Pixlr/e/ but I found that it's Just too Complex... and I use Paint dot Net for Everything Else... So... That's What I Used... 

The Polar Coordinates Filter is Fantastic! on Pixlr...

The epic failure of Donald Trump Letter To the Editor: Wisdom Here! Thanks Chuck Petty... #TrumpMustResign

The Trump presidency has been an abject failure from the very beginning and history will prove his tenure as the leader of the free world to be the worst in the annals of our democracy.

He has repeatedly failed to bring our country together as a nation by his inability to provide any leadership whatsoever when it was so desperately needed. He has failed the world when he walked away from NATO. He failed again when he said climate change is a hoax, solely blaming the Chinese and dropped out of the world organization. His failed trade wars and tariffs has had a very detrimental effect on many segments of our population, especially farmers and in particular beef farmers by importing 3.7 billion pounds of beef from 19 countries last year resulting in many struggling to survive.

While taking an $18 per head loss, the beef processing companies turn a profit of $600 a head. He failed us when he did not put together a national plan of action against the COVD-19 emergency. He failed us when he stopped funding to the WHO when it is most needed to fight the pandemic. He has failed to protect the American people from the current pandemic by refusing to listen to the advice of his own health experts and the dire consequences that would result from doing nothing. He actually stated “It will go away, it will be like a miracle it will just disappear. “ It is nothing but a hoax perpetrated by the Democrats.” He has failed us when he ignored the facts and refused to take any action in the fight against the pandemic until it was too late, costing untold thousands of lives.

He has failed us in trying to place the blame on anybody or anything but himself. The truth is, those thousands of lost lives lay only at the feet of the President of the United States. The blame cannot be cast elsewhere. The facts are not fake news. He has tried desperately to hide facts from the American people that might be detrimental to the health of the economy and his re-election. It is obvious his only concern is for himself and not anyone or anything else. He is willing to trade lives for the Dow Jones.


Be a responsible citizen and vote in the November presidential election to remove this inept and corrupt despot and return respect, sanity and dignity to the office and to us, the American people.

The Idiocy of Donald Trump Letter to the Editor. 

The Mirriam-Webster definition of the word idiocy is as follows: Extremely stupid behavior, notably stupid or foolish-madness-lunacy-insanity. The definition for inept is as follows: Not suitable to the time and place-unfit-bungling- lacking sense or reason-generally incompetent. This accurately describes the personality and mental state of the man currently the leader of the free world, and reminiscent of a man of insanity from the past: Adolf Hitler.

The threat to the USA, our democracy, freedoms and liberty is not Russia and Putin, nor North Korea and Kim Jung-Un, nor China and Xi Jinping. The real and present danger sits in the White House as Donald Trump. The American Psychiatric Association classifies Trump as suffering from a narcissistic personality disorder characterized by exaggerated feelings of self-importance, an excessive need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. He exhibits a preoccupation with power, prestige, and vanity. This condition is also characterized by exploitative behavior to achieve personal gain, exaggeration of skills, and accomplishments and intolerance of the views of others. Pathological narcissism personalities insult others constantly and cannot tolerate criticisms. He is also characterized as a sociopath and pathological liar with repeated lying, and manipulation of others with aggressiveness and consistent irresponsibility. American mental health professionals have long warned us Trump exhibits signs of clinical insanity and we haven’t listened.

In September 2017, a mere eight months in office, 60,000 mental health professionals crafted and signed a petition stating that he has serious mental illness and requested Congress remove him from office, according to article four of the 25th amendment to the constitution that states the president will be replaced if he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. That call has gone unheeded in Congress where Republicans habitually turn a blind eye to Trump’s insanities.

Politifact named Trump the winner of its annual “lie of the Year” award in 2015 with 72 percent of Trump’s public remarks about factual circumstances as false. To date there has been in excess of 18,000 documented and proven lies from this mentally disturbed despot.


Is this who we want as our president? I hope not. I pray not. A June 4 poll showed that only 26 percent of the respondents viewed the US going in the right direction. Most people now understand what we have is not what we want or need as our leader. Do your patriotic/civic duty and vote in November to remove this sick man from office.

Letter to the Editor: Wake Up America! President Donald Trump has made America the laughing stock among the world’s nations. What induces us to stand behind a man who cannot open his mouth without lying? Why would anyone want to do business or associate with someone who cannot be trusted, has no values and cannot maintain a position on anything?

EVERYBODY SING! They Say That Waking Up... is... Easy To Do... Now I Know... I Know That It's True... OOh EE... so Chew-Z... Instead of Believing Trump I Think That I'll Be Waking UP! Today! 

Written By Doug Findley:
I can no longer ignore my exasperation concerning the upcoming Presidential election. How in God’s name can the good people of this nation continue to support our President?

This man has made every effort to dismantle the fabric of our society. He has appointed foxes to guard the hen houses of every cabinet department, many of whom come from the very industries that have been regulated by the departments they are now in charge of.

President Donald Trump has made America the laughing stock among the world’s nations. What induces us to stand behind a man who cannot open his mouth without lying? Why would anyone want to do business or associate with someone who cannot be trusted, has no values and cannot maintain a position on anything?

Anyone who professes to follow the teachings of Jesus and also supports Mr. Trump is a hypocrite. Though Jesus preached forgiveness, he also asked that we repent of our sins. Has Donald Trump ever apologized for any of his acts of calculated evil?

That Trump is a puppet of Mr. Putin is indisputable. He believes Putin’s denial of Russia’s well documented meddling in our election over the facts supplied by every one of our intelligence agencies. He has taken funds our Congress designated for military aid to the Ukraine to help them fend off further Russian aggression and diverted them to pay for his “Great Wall.” He has outed a high-level Russian who was a long time source of vital inside information and put that man and his family in imminent danger. We were forced to extract them to safety and lose any future intelligence he could have supplied.  

To ignore this behavior in a trade for Supreme Court appointments he has made placing men with fundamentalist agendas in power is a devil’s bargain.

The President is blatantly pilfering great wealth from our military budget, ordering our Air Force to refuel at a commercial airport in Scotland, and boarding airmen in his nearby resort.

I could go on for much longer but doubt that there would be column space for it. 

My Letter to the Editor of the Times Standard in Eureka - Suggestions for Using the Abandoned Safeway Store. Ideas from my Fellow Bus Riders.

Let’s put a water slide pool in the empty Safeway store in Eureka.

There is an abandoned Safeway at the corner of Harris and Harrison. Due to the cool weather here, a pool would be a great blessing to the community. The nearest water slide pools are in Redding or Santa Rosa. Too far to drive for a family that just wants to relax and do something fun for the kids. Arcata has a public pool but no slides. An indoor water slide park is a big success in Anchorage, Alaska.

While riding the city bus home tonight we discussed what other business would be best to put in that location. Suggestions: a snow skiing mountain, a piano store, a pool table store, a luxury car store or a skating rink.

Neocon Taking Head [Idiot] now hired to censor Facebook. The Weekly Standard Magazine Hired to determine What is Fake and What is Real.

https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/09/facebook-fake-news-thinkprogress-weekly-standard.html

Facebook has empowered a conservative magazine [The Weekly Standard] to suppress liberal viewpoints.

Bill Kristol, a frequent Talking Head on MSNBC, is an author for the Weekly Standard. Most Famous for being wrong about the Iraq War, he is a commentator stating is opinions as if he was a Wiseman Pundit. While in fact he is "not very bright."

While Millions of people protested against the War in Iraq BEFORE IT STARTED... The Weekly Standard Editor was totally fooled into Actually Supporting the War and Going on TV to Beat The Drums. 

Supposed Wise Pundit is actually an Idiot who Believed all the False Propaganda published by George W Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.  

https://www.weeklystandard.com/ The Weekly Standard is a news Magazine Edited by Stephen F. Hayes

Prior to the proposed 2003 invasion of Iraq, Stephen Hayes spoke to BBC News, arguing for American intervention: "I think liberating Iraq will send a strong message to Iran, North Korea, other hostile regimes not only because it will show that we will - the United States will not tolerate bullies, especially bullies with weapons of mass destruction, but it will also I think hopefully show what a free liberated people, what a free liberated Iraqi people can do for themselves and it will be - again it will be a fabulous model, not only for the Middle East but for places throughout the world that haven't had these kinds of freedoms in the past or haven't had them realised."^[3]

Stephen F. Hayes is the author of three books. His first book, The Connection: How al Qaeda's Collaboration with Saddam Hussein has Endangered America, was published in 2004.

Meetings with Remarkable Men - in Arcata, CA - Dr Harold Campbell

In 2005, Dr Hal commanded me to take a class called Mergemedia. We put the Humboldt State University's Lumberjack Newspaper on the Internet. Hal said, "This is a classic task... They are like the customers who want to accomplish something using computers, and you know computers. Make it Happen.
http://thelumberjack.org/

Dr Hal is no longer Teaching College for the State of California. He founded his Own College in Oregon.  He worked for the LA Sheriff's Dept before HSU.

I knew absolutely Nothing about journalism but as a requirement for the class, I had to write 8 articles for publication. My Editors were other students and they explained basic concepts like...

0. If I see something happen and write about it, that's an 'Opinion' Piece.
1. If I Talk to three people and ask them what they saw, that's News. (sources).
2. Explain the entire concept of the article in One Sentence (headline)
3. Explain in more detail the concept in One Paragraph so that a reader can decide IF the article is worth reading. (Abstract).
4. Let your editor read the article and re-write it using her suggestions. (once)
5. Let your editor read the article and re-write it using her suggestions. (twice)
6. Let your editor read the article and re-write it using her suggestions. (Oh for Pete's Sake, this article is Not going to be published. Go get me a Story!)

Dr Hal was my Faculty Advisor at Humboldt State University in 2001. When we first met, he asked: "Why are you here?" I replied that I wanted to learn how to accept credit cards over the Internet and Sell Stuff. He said 'OK'... but... His trick was to force me to teach myself. He would give hints, tell me to do research, review what I had learned and assigned a Senior Project to build a Webstore with 5 other classmates... Eventually I built my own Webstore in the Real World and Am keeping the Profits.

What he did not know was how to build a Wildly Profitable Webstore. If he knew that, he wouldn't be teaching college...

LinkdIn Says:
He founded his own college... and got a black robe!
