Fruit of the tree:
Dr. Ronald J. Polland is an expert on the design, implementation, and analysis of needs assessments, surveys, questionnaires, tests, focus groups, and market research.Dr. Polland has over 30 years of experience in the field of survey, questionnaire, and test development, needs assessment, market research, and program evaluation. He is also trained in instructional design methods and has 10 years of teaching experiences.
Cleartext: Polland is a political operative, of the kind used in campaign work. His connections to the Hill faction are already clear, and now his professional pedigree is too. Oh, and you can chat with him and get his professional advice, on needs and such. For $2 a minute.
I don’t talk to trolls.
For the benefit of others and to bolster your own statements, a link to the dispute would be good to post.
Bet he would for $2 a minute...
maybe some folks might actually burn up the phone lines to DC with all their phone calls of protest! I really wonder if most folks activist is keyboard only. For example, did u see the thread that Kagan falsified a medical report before it went to SCOTUS? She should be disbarred much less nominated. We should be all over that!
Which dispute? The one where he accused a long time, respected, good freeper of forging her own certificate of birth?
Or
Everything else.
tutstar, you know darn well I am not a troll.
Reasonable questions, polarik, deserve reasonable answers.
You have been repeatedly pinging me to these threads and I have maintained my silence, but you keep stepping in deeper and deeper and you drag FR with you.
Answer the questions.
Pueblos are very wily.
Certain hillary supporters and 9/11 truthers are not/
scammers who mess with peoples’ minds while betraying their trust are not. They are evil.
Polarik should be donating 2 bucks a minute to FR for using it as his private headquarters.
Others can benefit from researching Dr. Polka. In that manner, they can gain insight to know that Dr. Polka's existence on FreeRepublic is a particularly visious internet scam. Presto! And there is no dispute :).
vicious. Vicious!!
What I'm gonna do to that spell-chcker - there used to be a Taliban hangout named "by the drill"...
Lol Bambi.
We go down, we cruise around
we go down, down, down in the violence...
Before starting to post in this harsh and brutal forum world full of internet scammers with bad hair who are able to post ascii in rainbow colors, it is good to scope out the scene first, wouldn’t you agree?
I just knew you would ;).
I have had a few FReepers ask me some good questions about the Obama COLB border, vis-a-vis, the one I demonstrate how to make.
I thought that the group should know them, too.
The first thing I said to them was, “If you are looking for logical reasons as to why the forger did what he did, there are none - beyond simply the desire to make a one-off that would surely piss off people like me.
Of all the initially wrong assumptions that I, and other “Sluethers,” made about Obama’s COLB, was to start off with “Ecclesiastes,” as in, “To everything, there is a reason.”
In the case of Obama’s COLB, we thought that every part of it had a reason for being there. Not true.
However, two facts stand out - and I did mention them in the video.
One, that the forger needed to obscure the security paper pattern that could be seen in a real border, and Two, the forger made the border semi-transparent because that is how the security paper pattern is seen below the border.
Back in mid-November 2008, I posted a real 2007 COLB border in which I had found the right mix of coloring, sharpening, and contrast to match that of Obama’s 2007 border.
However, to my chagrin, the alterations I made to the real 2007 border enhanced the security paper pattern that was still visible.
Why was that a problem?
If you enlarge the Obama COLB and look closely at its border, you can see the pattern of the security paper through it. You know that you are looking at security paper because the dark green patterns of the paper are not interrupted by the border.
They patterns run continuously across the face of the COLB, from the left edge of the paper to right edge and from top edge to the bottom edge - but are not perpendicular to the paper! (Chapter One, Part 4).
In other words, the borders on Obama’s COLB are semi-transparent while on the real 2007 COLB, they were close to being opaque.
One of the “security features” of the actual border used in 2007 (as well as in 2006 and 2009) is a very fine mesh through which the security paper can be seen.
It also can be seen on very high resolution scans and photographs - like that 2009 COLB I made - but not perfectly.
Normally, a scan or Xerox copy of a real COLB will cause that mesh to blur and obscure the background pattern of the security paper.
What made the Obama border such a bitch to replicate was the way in which it was repeatedly blurred and sharpened, and then made transparent enough to actually see the “security paper background” through it.
Keep in mind that Obama’s COLB (and my replicate) is a composite of four main layers: the first is an image of security paper; the second is the text layer including the certificate Masthead; the third is the border, and the fourth and last layer contains the “certification stamps” including the Seal, date-stamp, and Registrar’s stamp - which should be as visible as the date stamp, but is not even close (and why I left it off for now. Putting it on, though, is easier than doing the date stamp because the bottom of the border obscures most of it).
The reason for making the date-stamp so visible is to convey a sense of authenticity to the “document.”
Getting back to the problem, I realized that I had to make the border layer semi-transparent, WITHOUT changing the solid black information boxes at the top and bottom. Had they stayed a part of the border, they would have been incorrectly made to be semi-transparent.
Alas, I’m not done yet.
The other kicker about the Obama border is how did the forger keep the lettering in those black boxes sharp and nearly white in appearance.
My first thought was that he typed over an all-black rectangle with a white font. That was not right because in real borders, you can also see the security paper patterns through the text of the boxes like a stencil.
I decided that the text in those boxes were, in fact, transparent , but what initially threw me off the idea was clearing out the existing letters by highlighting them directly.
It made the openings in the letters too wide and too thick.
The solution was to expand the selection by a single pixel after inverting it.
That’s about all I’ll say about the border. I’m concentrating on finishing the book.
I honestly don’t have time. IF you know it then it is much easier for you to show us. Aren’t freepers known to back up their smack?
Yeah, and a lot of smack there is, too. I think I posted a quite revealing bit of data earlier in this thread, fairly much proving that Polarik is something completely different than he claims. So did Mesta.
I predict that as the races heat up and the strife between Hillary and Obama comes to a head, FR may find Polarik one of the main points of scandal regarding this site.
Really? Do you think Free Republic is in danger because of his posts?
That depends, of course. But consider this:
- There's good indications that he's somewhat connected to Phil Berg.
- There's good data showing Phil Berg connected to the troofer crowd and also to Hillary Clinton.
- Hillary Clinton is said to now be gearing up for 2012, becoming a contender.
- In such a setting, the Hillary gang will have to do something about Obama.
- It looks like Polarik is building a very large internet footprint showing a classic internet scammer MO.
- So when the chips fall, we have someone both being a large liability for the board, as well as being a Clinton asset.
Of course the scandal process may erupt at any time, independent of any planned timeline. All in all, it's not a good prospect.
“If you are looking for logical reasons as to why the forger did what he did, there are none - beyond simply the desire to make a one-off that would surely piss off people like me.”
Ego much?
Have you apologized to Danae yet?
I am looking for logical reasons why you are still here and why on all your previous blog sites and forums, you have told everyone to check you out here as if you owned the place.
I am awaiting your response. If uou have no response other than what you said about not talking to trolls, I wull extrapolate that you have no reason.
I am not playing with you, Ron. Put up or shut up. Apologize to the people you used and the ones you hurt and withdraw. You will NOT make Free Republic part of your agenda and you will NOT use Free Republic to perpetrate yet another scam all over the net to embarrass us.
What you have done is completely on you. FR has nothing to do with it and I want that on the record.
Furthermore, anyone here who received those evil emails setting Danae up behind her back on polarik’s bogus say so, then sat back and let him rip her to shreds while you all had a shark feeding frenzy at her expense, should hang your heads in shame.
And if you let him revive what he so humbly called “Polarik’s army” that he could sic on anyone who disagreed with him, I question your judgement. BIG time.
