A Threat to Human Life or just another Wire Theft?

Digital Photo Album:  A Threat to Human Life or just another Wire Theft?


Monday Morning, October 22nd 2012, neighbors in the Collier Heights Community of the Kevin Heights Neighborhood woke up to No Phone, No Internet and No way to call 911 yet again!

"Jeezh Man-net-ty!, "What the H- E double L", "Oh Snap", "Really Man, No Freaking Service again!?

These are just some of the nicer ways to paraphrase neighbors who are now completely fed up with the theft of thousands of tiny copper wires that give them access to the World.

Because, I am a small business man looking forward to making it through the rest of the day; I will re-frame from saying what the small business owners or entrepreneurs would likely say.

But here's facts to check and confirm:

1)  Neighbors are said to have lost service around 3:00 am 10/22/2012.

2) Telephone Trunk Link was cut again near the property of 50 Linkwood Road.

3) The Atlanta Police was suppose to be vigilant of the area on Day Watch (7am thru 7pm, which consist of 3 shifts.)

4)  Can  this incident now be considered an act of Domestic Terrorism?

http://www.fbi.gov/stats-services/publications/terrorism-2002-2005

There is no single, universally accepted, definition of terrorism. Terrorism is defined in the Code of Federal Regulations as “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives” (28 C.F.R. Section 0.85).

Domestic terrorism is the unlawful use, or threatened use, of force or violence by a group or individual based and operating entirely within the United States or Puerto Rico without foreign direction committed against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof in furtherance of political or social objectives.

The FBI Divides Terrorist-Related Activities into Two Categories:

• A terrorist incident is a violent act or an act dangerous to human life, in violation of the criminal laws of the United States, or of any state, to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.

5) The GBI or even perhaps the FBI should look into this investigation.

6) A person in the underlying area who has the Analog Phone service affected by this outage can not dial 911.  Therefore, this is a serious event that has occurred more than once.


I'm going to stop here and pray for a blessing to get out of this epedemic of wire theft.  It's going to stop, but just like the economy... it will take the Amercian People-  specifically those in Atlanta , as well as, Small Business to make that a reality.  Just my thoughts.  What are yours?

Tweet Bird (Twitter) Announced Last Month (Sept.) That It Would End @Anywhere!

by C. Henry Adams


[DRAFT]


I tell you what, it is very important to pay attention to the evolution of advance technology.

It appears that Twitter shut down "@Anywhere" Twitter Interface Platform (September ) leaving many users with blank sections on their web site, because we didn't read the Developer's Blog on Twitter's Website.

Sunsetting @Anywhere

This is embarrassing for BIE Media Group because we are just now discovering the name of the platform and why the doggone thing disappeared.

Many apologies to the clients we introduced the Twitter Interface called, "@Anywhere".

Shake My Head = (SMH)

For no additional charge, we will be glad to remove that script and replace it with an embedded script for Twitter.

Telecommunication Crisis on Linkwood Road

Update: Saturday Oct. 6th 2012 Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Rd

Day 4 : Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Road

Day 5: Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Road

Day 6: Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Road

Day 7: Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Road

Night 8 of Day 8: Telecom Crisis on Linkwood Road


Since I did not have a date with a Lady tonight, I decided to set at home and watch the TV Show “Fringe” on the Fox Network.

But, before I could find my seat in front of the television, the phone ranged.

On the other side of this wireless connection was a Neighbor and Community Leader.

He said, “C., AT and T is out here on Linkwood Road again tonight with a number of trucks and technicians.”

I immediately replied back without putting another thought to the matter saying, “Alright, I'll grab my digital camera and be there shortly.”

In my mind I'm thinking, “...and the saga continues.” But, I wasn't aware of what to expect when I arrived on the scene. Therefore, I said a little prayer of protection before venturing out into the night.

It was Night 8 of Day 8 and I had not the opportunity to check my email today due to business obligations that took a seat behind this outage.

Nevertheless, I've heard from the Atlanta Journal & Constitution Newspaper this morning and proceeded with other business while from time to time confirming with Elderly Neighbors or their kids (Grown Children I grew-up with..) that their phone service had been restored.

Anyway, back on the tangent; when I arrived on Linkwood Road, it was confirmed that AT and T Technicians were on the site alone with Armed Guards ( Licensed Peace Officers).

As I walked up to one of at least three repair locations with multiple Technicians on duty, I was asked by a Law Enforcement Officer to identify myself.

So, without any mental reservation or hesitation whatsoever, I respectfully gave my name and mention that I came from a nearby neighborhood.

After the meet and greet, the conversation lead to the discovery of an AT and T Executive Officer (Person unknown at this time.) recent visit to the site.

Furthermore, it was mentioned that the Executive Officer asked the Technicians if did they needed anything to get the job done.

It was discovered that in past days when AT and T Technicians left at 3:00 pm EST - it was because they weren't authorized to work overtime.

Well, the unknown AT and T Executive Officer obviously gave the clearance to work into the night.

Recently, someone asked, "What are you doing to help resolve this issue in the community?"

Here's my answer:

A) Working with Community Leaders and Neighbors to help get needed assistance in the restoration of telephone services.

B) Contacting Media Sources to get the word out.

C) Suggesting alternative plans for communications like giving Elderly Parents older cellular phones (No Older than 2003) to dial 911 in case of an emergency until phone service is restored.

D) Keeping Colleagues, Friends and Neighbors updated on turn of events through text messages, emails, phone calls, social media and digital photos just to name a few. (Unified Communications)

E) Being more vigilant in the community alone with other neighbors.

F) Staying in contact with the City Councilman and informing him or his staff of turn of events.

G) As a new member of the National Preparedness Coalition under FEMA or the Federal Emergency Management Agency which connects to the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, as well as, first responders – I'm hoping to seek training for my community, colleagues, as well as, myself.

H) Preparing to recommend the development of a Business Continuity Plan and Disaster Recovery Plan that has emphasis on crime prevention in the community.

That being said, respectfully – we would like to make some suggestions to help AT and T resolve the issue of wire theft below:

1) Perhaps Neighbors, Citizens and Individuals need to be given a common sense written criteria of what to lookout for when suspecting wire theft.

2) If AT and T Technicians typically work during the hours of 7:00 am to 3:00 pm., perhaps any unusual activity observed outside normal business hours (I.e. 4:00 am in the morning) should be reported by customers.

3) Perhaps AT and T needs to setup a direct human to human 24 hour hotline just for these types of theft.

4) Perhaps AT and T needs to accept text messages alerting them of possible theft.

5) Perhaps AT and T needs to accept tweets alerting them to possible theft.

6) If AT and T is concern with prank or false calls, perhaps some sort of notice should be given to advise the caller of the seriousness of this matter. If false calls are considered a violation of laws, this disclosure should be made known.

7) If the area is a common place for wire theft, perhaps AT and T needs to study patterns, implement countermeasures and apply sting tactics with law enforcement.

8) Perhaps satellite surveillance if applicable should be considered for digital photograph analysis regarding movements of thieves.

9) Perhaps AT and T should ask their customers and anybody serious about stopping the wire thefts to take picture of suspected wire thieves with their smartphones, then upload the image immediately to a specific site for review. This information should be shared with the Law Enforcement in the area and surrounding areas.

10) Perhaps AT and T should take full advantage of Social Media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Blog sites, Radio Ads, TV Ads, as well as, Online Video sites to get the word out.

11) Perhaps to stop or deter this particular crime, a collective effort must ensue by AT and T , Small Businesses, Towns, Communities, Non-Profits Organizations, Governments (Federal, State, County and City), Groups and Individual Customers.

12) Perhaps a market campaign, a crime prevention campaign and private interest effort will help AT and T protect its infrastructure.

13) There is technology that can detect brakes in fiber, perhaps there is technology that could help AT and T quickly identify multiple telephone lines going offline at once that needs to be installed.

14) Perhaps AT and T should now increase the $3,000 USD bounty to at least $100,000 USD  to draw interest.  By doing so, give Private Industry and Non-profit Organizations an incentive in helping to capture criminals who commit this crime.

Recently, I contacted Major Quiller of Zone 1 for the Atlanta Police Department (“APD”).

During the conversation with Major Quiller, we discovered the following things that Atlanta Police Department (Zone 1) is actively doing to rectify the situation in the Linkwood Road Area:

a) Morning Watch ( Shifts starting from 7am thru 7pm) is on alert for Wire Theft.

b) Crime Suppression Unit activated.

c) Constant Surveillance of the Area (Linkwood Road Area).

d) Collaboration with AT&T Security Services, as well as, other Law  Enforcement Organizations.

e) In contact with Recycle Centers.

d) Canvasing neighborhoods to investigate and gather leads to this crime.


Update:  Saturday, October 13th 2012 -

An unknown number of Neighbors now have phone service, BUT in essence if you call Mrs. B's number, Mrs. C may receive the call.

Hopefully, AT and T will resolve that connectivity issue soon.

Telecommunications Crisis on Linkwood Road

Photo Album: Telecommunication Crisis on Linkwood Road

by C. Henry Adams

[ DRAFT ]   Link: http://tinyurl.com/8tqzocg



Do you remember when you were a kid growing up in the Neighborhood? Not really, huh? I can hear someone saying right about now, “Wait a minute, yes I do recall being a kid growing up in the neighborhood.”

Well, whether your past experiences were good or bad in that particular community, at least a number of us can call it our childhood home.

Speaking of childhood homes, not too far from the home where I grew up from a little boy to a grown ole man, an incident occurred recently that could endanger many people lives.

This crisis was just a series of events witness in that particular community in just one years time.

Yes, I'm going to get to the point and tell this story, but before I do, I would like to define some things for clarification and hopefully historical significance one day.

Number 1, growing up in Atlanta, Georgia where this community is located, it was ALWAYS known to be apart of the NORTHWEST region of the City. Why do I say this? Correct me Scholars if I'm wrong, but when we describe our street location, “NW” is on the tail end of street sign or our US Snail Mailing address.

Number 2, my childhood neighborhood was and is apart of the Historical Collier Heights Community only separated by the development of Interstate 20 first in the late 1950's and early 1960's; then enclosed by Interstate 285 in the 1970's & 80's.

But, who cares huh? Well, many descendants of that area and myself care.

Now straight to the point; Linkwood Road connects Collier Drive to Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. It is a heavily walked pedestrian street with no sidewalk which is badly needed and a heavily daytime driven route from Collier Drive to Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.

The neighborhoods surrounding this area consist mostly of African American People who were Upper Middle-Class, Middle-Class and Lower Income living people.

Since the 1960's thru the 2000's the demographics, average income of the people, racial background and even the crime rate has changed. Nevertheless, a number of Citizens remain in the area who help preserve a unique way of life to which the pursuit of the American Dream has not faded away.

On Friday Morning around 4:00 am EST, according to neighbors; individuals were seen near the corner of Linkwood Road and Burton Road on the telephone poles removing wire.

This telephone wire or in more technical terms - “Trunk Line”, according to AT&T Technicians working later on those lines; contain about 2000 customers from residents to businesses – phone service. So, when neighbors in the area of Linkwood, Hedgewood, Tribble Lane, Hermer Circle and Kevin Court tried to call out or were looking to receive calls inward, they heard nothing. Not even the crackling hum of a disconnected phone, because of the failure to pay a bill.

When they called “AT&T”, they were told that a Service Technician will come out that afternoon. When the Service Technician did not show up, they were told by AT&T that it would either be Monday or Tuesday before their phone service would be restored.

Wait-A-Minute Now! Monday or Tuesday of NEXT WEEK and its FRIDAY. Are you kidding US!? No, AT&T wasn't kidding and later return my call, whereas, stating there was a major outage.

Furthermore, the Representative of AT&T that I spoke with could not give us a location of the outage when asked.

Nevertheless, after responding to the fact that no phone service was available to my family in case of an emergency, I tried to spring to action.

In the community of my childhood memories, I established a communications plan or small communication systems with other kids of my youth who now were adults living out of the city and in some cases out of the State of Georgia.

Furthermore, Twitter and Facebook has played a major roll in effectively getting the word out to not only them (Former Kids of my Youth), but Family, Colleagues, Classmates, Government Officials, as well as, companies who “Really” appreciate our business; not to mention Small Business Owners in the area like myself.

But, you know- its kinda sad when you call television station's newsrooms all excited to ask if they could confirm the outage with AT&T and get no response on the scene.

Possibly Two Thousand People without phone, possibly a number of elderly people in their homes who don't own a cell phone or have one of those personal emergency devices to alert authorities that now does not work, WOW!

I might catch some flack from the previous statement I made, but after all if the news
crews do show up, I can update this blog with no problem.

My Take On The First Presidential Debate Wednesday October 3rd 2012

by C. Henry Adams


[ DRAFT ]

Warning: This link may or may not work once article is posted: http://tinyurl.com/8jxoadr


After reviewing the debate half asleep or half awake, I'm still not sure what to think.

It is true President Obama and his Administration inherited a major country (USA) in great debt flying like a single engine airplane caught in a spiraling tail spin just about to crash and burn.

It is also true that his (Obama's ) Administration likely could not turn the downward US Economy around in just 4 years.

Furthermore, it is also true that at less one year of his term in office there (Washington D.C. ) would be a transitioning phase from a Republican lead party Administration to a Democratic lead party Administration.

Furthermore, it is true – a lot of the decisions Good or Bad made by President Obama and his Administration likely were influenced by Conservatives, Liberals and Moderates whether any of them were Democrats, Republicans or Independents.

Moreover, regarding Governor Romney and President Barack Obama, it is true that both of them come from families that were well off or wealthy, rich, etc. In fact, President Obama referring to his late Grandmother mentioned that she worked her way up to being the Vice-President of a Bank. Note: This is the American Way or an American Dream that can and will become a reality if you make the effort and don't give up, give in or give out.

Also, it is not a coincident that both the Incumbent President Barack Obama and Governor Romney – Former Governor of Massachusetts are Graduates of Harvard Law School.

Should I continue? Yes. OK, in slang terminology and with great respect, both of these “Kats” have or will possess more money, as well as, financial resources than likely at least 200 Million Americans of the 300 Million plus Citizens in this great country; this includes their families, friends and colleagues to a certain degree as well.

So, the question likely we all should be asking ourselves is... “ have we really identified the real REASONS why we went into a Depression, sorry, I mean recession?”

If so, considering that Lower Income and Middle-Class Americans create wealth for the Elite (Super Rich), Major Corporations (250+M to 1000+M) and Countries (USA, UK, China and WTO's); why have we not at least started to see a “significant “ turn-around in the Job Market, Housing Industry or Small Business Industry period?

What is the guarantee or indicator that if Governor Romney becomes President things will change for the better?

What is the guarantee or indicator that if President Barack Obama is re-elected to the Office of the President of these United States that things will improve?

The only real guarantee or indicator we all can seem to agree on is generating jobs which employ people or creating contracts for Small Business to employ people to generate some sort of income.

However, in reality - neither Candidate for the 2013-2017 US Presidential Period in Office CAN NOT guarantee prosperity.

So who can guarantee prosperity?

My Answer: In my professional opinion, the American People.

Definitions:
______________________________

250+M = 250 Million Dollar a Year Business. ( Not a Small Business.)

1000+M = 1000 Million Dollar a Year Business. ( Not a Small Business.)

WTO's = World Trade Organization Members.

"Kat" =  Respectful Name given by a Male to describe another Male with character.

Elite(Super Rich) = Individuals or Families worth at least 1000 Million Dollars.

1000 Million Dollars = 1 Billion Dollars.

How do you think Cloud Computing will impact Physical Security?

By C. Henry Adams

(NOTE: I'm currently editing, please REFRESH.)

Recently, I reveal in a blog that I was in Graduate School.

Well, one of my classmates (Sorry, can't mention the person's name.) asked me the following question related to a discussion in our course:

THE QUESTION:

Something else to think about - how do you think Cloud computing will impact physical security?

I started to say one thing, but came up with a futuristic scenario that could very well become a reality. I based my "theory" described in a skit below off the fact that some kids and adults have never seen a typewriter!

C. Henry Adams' Theory: Cloud Computing if properly implemented will make physical security tools utilized today to secure a facility obsolete.

MY REPLY:

Currently, Cloud Computing has been utilized for over 20 years with the use of email companies like Yahoo or AOL. One would 1st need to study how many times these companies have been compromised. Oh, don't forget Amazon which offer Cloud Services outside its online store as well.

Second, if you depend on Cloud Computing to access your house, car and other physical things, it could become a very serious concern regarding physical security.

Future Scenario: A female college student lost her tablet on the flight home (USA) from school(Europe). So, when she finally arrived home, paid her taxi fare via her smartphone; she started to freak out when she discovered that her parents were not at home.

In a panic, she press a button on the smartphone and called her mother. The phone projected a hologram image of her Mother who answered the phone saying, "What's wrong Sweetie?"

Female College Student: Mom, quick - what do I do!? I'm locked out of the house and I can't get in! It looks like its going to rain!

Mother: Calm down Baby, you will be OK.

Female College Student: Mommm! I don't want to get my hair wet!

Mother: Sweetie, do you remember those little metal things called "keys" we gave you years ago when you were little?

Female College Student: Yes, but how is that going to help me now!?

Mother: See that flower pot over to the left side of the door? Lift up the fake flower, get the key and put it in the lock and turn it to the right clockwise like your father taught you. You will hear the door unlock and just push the door open.

Female College Student: Oh! Right, that's cool.

Understanding Other People's Cultures, Religions and Life Styles Is Good Business

By C. Henry Adams September, 2012

I'm actually in Graduate School now working on receiving a Graduate Certificate, so besides operating a small business for about 12 to 15 hours a day, I'm writing papers or studying online.

Nevertheless, that might be irrelevant to the People who have took the time to read this Blog's entitled, “Understanding Other People's Cultures, Religions and Life Styles Is Good Business.”

So, let me get to the point. But first, let me give you the definition of certain terms I will utilize in my writings to the best of my ability.

Why? Well, to put it bluntly in American English Slang, “ I don't want you to get it twisted. “

Furthermore, I don't want to say anything, write anything, print anything, produce any video or audio that will get anybody killed, period.

This is no laughing matter, unfortunately it is a reality.

Alright, that being said, when I say “Other People”, I mean a group of individuals who may not live in my particular city, county, state or province, as well as, country.

When I say “Culture”, I mean the aforementioned people's tastes, thoughts and developments.

When I say “Religions” I mean the aforementioned people's belief system and practices based on Spiritual Guidance.

When I say “Life Styles”, by the way, this is a hard one to understand or accept at times, but it need to be said. I mean certain people who choose to live a certain way. No, I will not define 'certain'.

Now that I've define Other People, Cultures, Religions and Life Styles.

THE POINT:
Good Business in my professional opinion encompass treating all People with respect, kindness, while not offending them period.

That means if you understand that certain things should NOT be said, printed, written, produced in a video or audio to be displayed in other people's culture, about other people's religion or other people's life style; perhaps your company will be a success while in compliance with the Wide World of many groups of “Other People “.
