BIE Networks Suspends Broadcasting Events

Greetings Everyone,

I hope this email or blog finds you all well.  As of January 28th 2015, BIE Networks will suspend attempts to broadcast streaming media.  For now going on roughly two years, we have tried

to make a dream, a reality.

One summer in the late 1980s or early 1990s, I spoke with my late father, Marion L. Adams stating that I wanted to own  a radio station.  He did not discourage me because of the color of our skin or the financial status that we currently resided in at the time.

Instead, he encouraged me to dream the impossible dreams, focus on making them come true and with my late Mother's ( Mrs. Emma S. Adams ) wise advice - always put God 1st.

Since then, I have met many outstanding people and some great mentors to guide me alone the way in making this dream real.

Through everyone's inspiration, I have learned that every setback is perhaps a setup for something great, not seen, but soon to come.

That being said, " BIE Networks will resurface again, but at a later date."

I want to thank all the Broadcasters, Artists, Marketing & Sales Rep's from various Networks, Investors, Friends, Colleagues and Mentors for your continued support.

Dreaming About A Drone Invading My Privacy While I Sleep

By C. Henry Adams  


You know, we live in a World where far be it for me to say, advance technology exist.

However, just because it may exist does not mean that it will ever be stealthier enough to elude the human species.

Why do I make that statement?

Well, because a human being with spirit attached is perhaps one of if not the most complex creature in my professional opinion ever studied thousands to millions of times, whereas, we still don't have all the answers to how they work or operate.

I believe that only God knows us truly.

Anyway, so I had this particular dream about a Drone hovering near my home with at least one infrared night vision camera looking into my window.

Then, I woke up - thought to myself, what legal rights as a U.S. Citizen, as a Small Business Owner and just as a Human being - do I have to address this matter appropriately?

I  mean really now, I would assume that Drones are great tools and/or toys when properly utilize.

However, if you have NO business or RIGHT to operate a Drone at NIGHT, plus in a residential area, why take the risk?

Then again, mind you - I'm just dreaming this stuff up, right?

Well, I sincerely hope for those advocates of the Drone with night vision, commercialized and have the intent to invade everyday/night citizens privacy by aerial trespassing, get this message clearly.

Perhaps, You are not welcome.   Maybe, You are not without observation in return and legal recourse will be taken against You.  

OK,  (LOL) enough said, let me go back to sleep now without hearing a weird hum or buzz.

Well, those are my thoughts, what are yours?

Kevin Heights Neighborhood - Modern Day Tribe

By C. Henry Adams



Recently, I reviewed an interactive article in a local newspaper web site that was discouraging in my professional opinion.

However informative it tried to convey awareness of criminal activity in the City of Atlanta, it might have promoted a negative message to visitors from other walks of life  regarding the municipality.

It is true and I'm not in denial when I state this,  'there is crime everywhere'.

However, there are good things or perhaps greater things occurring everywhere as well.

For instance, where I grew up and currently reside, there is no Murders, Rapes, Aggravated Assaults or even Larceny occurring in my immediate neighborhood - modern day tribe - to the best of my knowledge to date.

Yet, the picture painted for the World to see on an Open Source GPS web site begs to differ.

How can I make this comment and sleep safely at night?  Well, it's a factual statement.

To make it a valid expression, here's what the people or fellow tribe members do...

1)  Become Nosy Neighbors, pay close attention to details.

2)  Communicate with their neighbors openly through greetings when outside of their homes.
(e.g.  Hey!  How are you doing!  Have a great day!)

3)  Communicate with Neighbors via  POTS (Plain Old Telephone System).  (e.g.  Hello,  how are you? Listen, I just wanted to give  you a call to share some observations.)

4)  Communicate via Facebook and other Social Media with neighbors or fellow tribe members.

5)  Communicate via Text Message System amongst Modern Day Tribe Members, City Council Person and Police.

6)  Pickup trash around their homes, other neighbor's homes and from time to time, the entrance to the subdivision while being watchful of the community as a whole.

7)  As adults, speak openly to children when they are observed misbehaving in the neighborhood while at play; certain steps are taken.  

STEPS: 
A.  If a child is observed misbehaving, call out to that child and ask him or her to refrain from bad behavior.  
B. If the child fails to comply, contact their parents or guardians immediately to stop their bad behavior. 
C. If the parent or guardian is absent or fails to correct the child's actions, call the police.

It is very obvious that most of the time, outside elements, people or even gangs will select a place to perform criminal activity.  As a result of these negative actions, a urban blight is place over an entire area.  This economy killer must stop and will stop when a person or people get fed up with crime.

Those are my thoughts, so what do you think?

Debut Spot presents Tawana Lael - ' A Brand New Day '

by  C. Henry Adams


Happier New Year Everyone!   Why did I state, "happier" instead of "happy" new year?   Well, it is my hopes and prayers that 2015 becomes a better year than 2014 for you.  Nevertheless, I had the opportunity to meet a Beautiful Lady, should I say Beautiful Business Lady who goes by the name of Tawana Lael.

Prior to reading about her online and hearing this R and B - Soul Artist sing, I did not know that someone had the GREAT MIND to marry her.  That someone goes by the name of " EMJ".   EMJ is also the Producer of Tawana Lael's  first and second album.

The Bibles says, when a man finds a woman, he finds a 'GREAT' thing.  EMJ has found a Great Artist in Tawana to say the very least and I would like to encourage you to come out and hear her sing at De'lux Lounge, Bar and Grill located at 5456 West Fayetteville Road on State Route 314 in College Park, Georgia on Friday, January 30th 2015 starting around 8:00 pm EST.
( Tawana Lael's Show on 'Debut Spot' was postpone on 1/7/15.)

Wait-a-minute, I can hear somebody in the reading eye of this Blog say,  " Well, C. Henry, I'm sorry but, I can not fly down to the Atlanta Metro Area near Hartsfield- Jackson International Airport right now to hear Tawana sing".

My Reply:  Well, that's OK, BIE Networks is solving that problem in several of the following ways;

1)  BIE Networks will start streaming video / audio broadcast on its network in January of 2015.

2)  A Show called, " Debut Spot " will feature an Artist 'Live' from De'Lux Lounge, Bar and Grill at 5456 West Fayetteville Road, State Route 314 once a month for at least six months starting
Friday, January 30th 2015 on BIE Networks.

My Opinion Regarding Ebola

by C. Henry Adams
This statement is just my opinion, perhaps I'm wrong or right. Ebola is a deadly virus that is said to kill in about 2 to 21 days. ( Please feel free to correct me, if I'm wrong. ) As an American, I have shown great concern regarding the consequences of someone entering the USA with Ebola. I pray for healing regarding the person or people who suffer with this disease. I extend my condolences to the many families who have lost love-ones as a result of a deadly virus such as Ebola. I also pray that everyone in the sight of my writings take heed to learn more about this and other diseases /or virus (es) to avoid contact with an infected insect ( No allege claims have been made as of yet.) , animal, person or people. Money can not always buy a cure to this disease and other diseases. However, putting God 1st through prayer and utilizing common sense in a Hazmat Situation is a key to me.

Just my thoughts, what are your thoughts regarding this matter at hand?

I FINISH 26693rd IN THE 2014 AJC PRR

By C. Henry Adams  (UPDATED)

This particular article is my testimony regarding the accomplishment or milestone I personally made on Friday, July 4th 2014 while running in the 2014 AJC Peachtree Road Race.

If you are an avid runner and you read the title,  " I FINISH 26693rd IN THE 2014 AJC PRR ", perhaps that's not a big deal to you.  But, to me coming off a 10 year hiatus from running in the AJC Peachtree Road Race that was a very big deal.  

A matter of a fact, when I finally made it to the finish line, I looked up and I saw a time of 2 hours : 45  minutes : something seconds (something, meaning I forgot the numbers.  LOL ). 

Then,  I thought to myself, the " Y " Wave ( The last group of Runners to run the 2014 AJC Peachtree Road which included Meb Keflezighi, the Boston Marathon Winner) started or allegedly was to start at 9:05 am EST, whereas, the first group of Runners started at 7: 30 am EST.

This means that I just ran this race in 45 minutes!  (WRONG)

But later, when I checked my time at AJC Peachtree Road Race Unofficial Results web page for 2014 ( http://projects.ajc.com/running/peachtree/2014/ ),  I guess that wasn't the case. 

Instead, I ran the race in 1 hour :  9 minutes : 41 seconds while placing at 26,693rd out of 60,000 runners.

Did I feel bad about that placed position?   Heck Naw!

Why?  Well, to start - 10 years ago, I suffered heat exhaustion or perhaps a heat stroke trying to run the 2004 AJC Peachtree Road Race.

The years following that episode in my life revealed other health related issues which eventually lead me to believe that I was on the right track trying to stay healthy as I got older by training and running.

Today, I work hard to keep a positive mental attitude while balancing my life with healthy exercise, dieting and practicing methods of relieving stress.

As a small business owner, it is essential to balance one's life and very important to surround yourself with LIKE MINDS who believe in practicing great health.

I personally want to thank  The Atlanta Track Club  ( http://www.atlantatrackclub.org/ ) for the opportunity to run in their event and the magazine that I received in the mail from them was very informative while giving great advice.

I will continue this NEW old hobby that I have been doing since my days in Elementary School over 30 years ago.  LOL  I see clearly now that it is important to maintain some sort of exercise regiment to maintain great health in one's life.

The AJC Peachtree Road Race is a great choice for improving your health when you train for it and discover through it that all your hard work paid off when you cross the 6.2 mile finish line regardless of finishing 1st or last.

UPDATE: Kevin Heights Neighborhood Residents File A Complaint Against ATT

by C. Henry Adams

Updated:  May 22nd 2014 2:51 pm EST

As of May 22nd 2014, the Historic Kevin Heights Neighborhood Complaint against AT and T has been resolved.

A little known Historic Duplex which actually sat where Interstate 20 is now located, is the center of discussion. 

It was removed and placed in the Kevin Heights Neighborhood over 50 years ago.

It is the private property ,whereas, the incident has occurred.

A portion of the property is backed by the Georgia Department of Transportation barrier wall overgrown with vegetation, it is near the corner of Tribble Lane and Linkwood Road in Northwest Atlanta.

The Private Owner of the said historic property spoke with AT and T Technicians on site and was told that repairs would be made after the construction period end.  However, this construction period has continue off and on for months.

Atlanta City Councilman C. T. Martin's Office relayed a message to an AT and T contact as well.

An Executive Representative of AT and T receive notice from the Chairman Chuck Eaton's office of District 3 for the Georgia Public Service Commission and immediately contacted a representative of the Kevin Heights Neighborhood to resolve the matter amicably.

As it stands, there is a positive outlook to the end of this story.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:  This complaint was sent to the Georgia Public Service Commission, its Chairman Chuck Eaton of District 3 and various others seeking a positive outcome.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It has been observed on several occasions by Neighbors entering the Kevin Heights Neighborhood, to which is a part of the Collier Heights Community in Northwest Atlanta; that tire tracks smear and disfigured the grounds at the entrance.

Therefore, residents made efforts to place "Keep off the Grass" signs at the entrance in hopes of containing further damage to the property.

It appears their efforts were to no avail.

On Tuesday, May 20th 2014,  a resident of the Kevin Heights Neighborhood approach the entrance to the subdivision to discover what appear to be an AT and T Bucket Truck parked on the grass where the entrance sign to the neighborhood is located.

The resident approach the AT and T Technician and a male Georgia POST Off-Duty Policeman of another jurisdiction outside the City of Atlanta guarding the Technician.

He asked the AT and T Technician to remove his truck off the grassy area that display the Neighborhood sign.

The AT and T Technician refused to remove what appears to be a Bucket Truck and the Georgia POST Off-Duty Policeman told the resident that the Technician had a right to park the truck on the lawn and directed the resident to have a "Nice Day" and leave immediately.

Considering the fact that the vehicle or Bucket Truck would not impede traffic on the street, plus if this vehicle is in fact a Bucket Truck, it could extend to reach any utilities without destroying the lawn, the sewer covers seen damaged and entrance to a neighborhood; the AT and T Technician clearly damaged property while reducing the property value of the community.

Nevertheless, on Wednesday, May 21st 2014, the same or similar Bucket Truck with the same Male AT and T Technician was seen on the Bucket Truck parked on the lawn with no regard to the neighborhood.

In fact, approximately 4:00 pm EST it was observed by a resident that the AT and T Technician left wires exposed on the Utility Pole and Lines.

AT and T also has left trash and debris laying on the grounds in and around their construction site.

Furthermore, AT and T has failed to cover a hole that is clearly seen at the construction site.

Furthermore, the communication box where the AT and T Technician often work out of is clearly in disarray and appears open at times after technicians have left the site for the day.

Digital images have been taken and documented regarding this neighborhood with the site in question.  These atrocities have been in due form more than 12 months.

It appears that AT and T does not care about their current customers in Northwest Atlanta.

Please see images attached with this complaint.  https://plus.google.com/photos/110216596103776814317/albums/6016113319485111873?authkey=CMPR3M6RruakvQE

A Conversation With A Film Maker And US Ambassador

By C. Henry Adams

I have the honor to know a Film Maker/Producer  and a US Ambassador.

Each of the two people that I highly speak of are known for their unique and individual roles in life.   How unique?  So unique that they have made positive impressions on many people's lives of different colors, creeds and national origins like mine for years.

So, with great thought,  I pondered on how I could connect these two people to convince them to tell a story based on true accounts regarding 20,000 or Twenty Thousand Men who help change the course of the US Military (United States Marine Corps) ,as well as, Civilian Life throughout seven (7) decades by giving of themselves to defend the United States during World War II.

Perhaps you heard of theses great men who in June of 2012 receive the Congressional Gold Medal.  My father, the late Marion L. Adams, Sr. was a Montford Point US Marine and receive his certificate posthumously.

As a result of my late father's great works,  I've decided to take action regarding the Montford Point US Marines Story.  So far, it has not been an easy act.  Truth is based on facts.  Providing a historical account of several turn of events requires factual evidence.

In order to tell a great story of these historic events, perhaps it would be wise to gather pertinent information from a person or persons who served during WWII in the USMC (United States Marine Corps).

Well, one of those great men would happen to be a Living Legend of the ' Few and the Proud '; who went on to be appointed a United States Ambassador.

Ambassador (Dr) Theodore Britton, Jr. currently resides in the Atlanta area.   As a Business Man, I've learned that you can never have too many Mentors within your Profession.   Dr. Britton is one of my Professional Mentors to which I hold in high regards.  What makes him stand out the most is... he is highly intelligent, up to date on the latest technologies and a real to life Globe traveling Gentlemen that is spot on time.  LOL

Then, there is the Colleague and highly intelligent Professor, named Rel Dowdell.   Rel, is an Educator,  Film Maker / Producer, who has great business sense. 

The Film Industry is a Billion Dollar Enterprise.  Today, even though you have advanced technology at your finger tips to create incredible film footage, it still takes a lot of money, the right cast and crew;  plus a whole lot of other things behind the scenes  to produce a great movie.

As of May 15th 2014, Rel's Film called, " Changing the Game " will debut , (Thursday, May 15th 2014 ) on BET  at 7pm EST.   http://www.bet.com/shows/bet-star-cinema/photos/2014/05/flicks-of-the-week-may-12.html

Nevertheless, while driving to go and eat some chicken at this place (Chick-Fil-A) on South Cobb Drive in Metro Atlanta.  (( Sorry, no shameless ad here, just like the food and customer service.  LOL))

I got the notion to call up my ole Classmate ( Professor Rel Dowdell ) and two-way him with my Mentor ( Dr. Theodore Britton, Jr.).

Guess what?  It worked;  I was successful in reaching both Gentlemen.

Although the conversation was short and brief, I believe that I've made some sort of connection.

Furthermore,  it turns out the Montford Marines Memorial located in North Carolina near Camp Lejeune needs additional funding to complete it.

If some sort of collaboration was made to use the Copyright of the Montford Point US Marines while creating a film to benefit the Non-profit Organization's Memorial, as well as, others - that would be a beautiful thing.

After reviewing the Bereavement Announcements of the recently deceased Montford Point US Marines, it is realized that time is of an essence.

Many of the these Legends have passed away.  However, for those that are living, this is the time to reach out to the Men, their Wives and Grown Children in order to grasp a piece of the past, whereas, to know whence you come from to clearly know where you are going into the future.

Furthermore, it is also time to call on the Surviving Spouses and Children as well, while educating this Great Nation regarding the legacy and contributions left behind.

So, what are your thoughts?

Favoring The 300M Plan For The TED

by C. Henry Adams

I would favor Georgia State University and Carter Developers proposed 300 Hundred Million Dollar Plans for Turner Field property , AKA the "TED".

Back on December 1st 2013, I wrote a blog asking how much for Turner Field with the mindset of preserving it.  However, this concept that I recently observed would definitely perform a greater purpose.

It would be sad to see the Atlanta Braves along with the Stadium in its current form go, but on the other hand - it would serve a higher calling for the Students matriculating through the Halls and Buildings of Georgia State University; as well as, it would likely support the surrounding Neighborhoods and Communities where Turner Field is located.

I briefly read the article in the Atlanta Business Chronicle and glance at the Atlanta Journal Constitution  article as well.   Here is a concept booklet found in PDF here.

So, what are your thoughts?
