Doc I just caught up on all the recent posts and found yours about cooking carp. This is my grandfather's favorite recipe for Ohio carp:
-Catch the largest carp you can (they get huge) -Don't clean, scale or gut it. -Put it on a pine board slightly larger than the carp. -Bury both in the ashes of a hot wood campfire for two hours. -Remove from the fire, throw away the carp and eat the pine board. Delicious.
Will need to try that soon

The letters on the Q website from Frank and Richard are a little vague to me in regards to the AIDS thing. I don't see an actual denial of AIDS. There are laws on the books for people that have HIV/AIDS that does not force them to disclose that type of information.
Richard stated that "Frank is not HIV"? HIV what? Richard can not get caught in a possible lie by posting what he did.
Frank did not disclose that he does not have AIDS in the letter, from what I read.
There are laws that protect HIV+ people from disclosing this type of information to people.

10/14/2005 - Ruthless Tactics Concerning CEO's Health
From Frank Olsen:
"I am a proud member of the gay and lesbian community and I stand tall as a 62 year old gay man. I am, however, very disappointed that every time a gay man gets a sniffle or takes a pill, someone has to say he has AIDS. This has happened to me. As a result, I have to make the statement that I am NOT HIV positive in any way, nor do I have any terminal illness whatsoever. Anyone who DOES have AIDS, you are my brother/sister and I cherish you.
My medical records can be viewed by any independent doctor to verify that this statement is true.
Frank states that he is not HIV positive and that his records can be viewed by any independant doctor. I am no docter but if this was an issue for me I would find a doctor and ask, 'can you have aids without being hiv positive,' and maybe pay that doctor to look up Franks records. JMO, GL.

I have to point out that I, also, have tried to DD this information to no avail.
I was really curious if anyone could come up with a source that didn't obviously originate from a company-supplied bio... and nobody has yet.
So I have no proof one way or the other as to Frank's reputation, and I don't think it matters much given that he's already on the job. But when it is said that he "created numerous channels" etc.. well i still see no proof in that.
The company (Q) surely supplied the information for Frank's bio which was used to promote his seminar appearance. Fine. That is standard procedure, a CEO's public relations company writes their company bio.
Clearly every single source comes from the same supplied writings, stating "President of the Hospitality Movie Channel which he sold that business to Showtime/Viacom". SEE THAT WORDING? "...which he sold that business..." not correct grammar, and used every single time because it is all from one source.
Google "The Hospitality Movie Channel" and all you get is Frank's bio rewritten several times.
No other results at all.
There are several other points, like "He entered the television arena with a four-hour home shopping program which was the forerunner of the current home shopping channels." but never says "he sold it for billions.
I know I'm putting myself on a limb here, but I DD'd this subject to death and found nothing to back up the SUCCESSFUL SALE of any tv or radio station, or any background DD not provided by the company itself.
June 1: Presenter: Frank Olsen, President/CEO of Q Television Network Location: Terrace Room A (University Commons) About the Presenter: Frank Olsen is President/CEO of Q Television Network, a subsidiary of Triangle Multi-Media Limited, Inc.. Mr. Olsen has been in the broadcasting industry for over 35 years and has helped shape minority programming. He created Q Television Network to provide quality programming for and about the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender communities around the world. Mr. Olsen previously launched the first radio station focused on African Americans and their culture in Seattle. He entered the television arena with a four-hour home shopping program which was the forerunner of the current home shopping channels. He was president of The Hospitality Movie Channel which he sold that business to Showtime/Viacom. In addition to his broadcasting ventures, Mr. Olsen has also worked in the LGBT communities, starting 17 clubs centered on LGBT entertainment. His wealth of experience in broadcasting and business, combined with his creativity, has helped him bring Q Television Network to a national audience and create the premiere LGBT television network of his dreams.

so your saying that that was a quality move on the behalf of Q to allow him to respond. Is Richard not paid by Q? I guess your saying he did that on his own time. My comment was also in response to the lawsuits that Q has threatened. Time and Money.

Move Over Fab 5: Q Television Has Arrived; New Gay Family Television Network Showcases its Unique Perspective Prior to Public Launch
NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 26, 2004--Q Television Network (Pink Sheets: QBID), headquartered in California, announces the launch of a subscriber channel for the gay and lesbian community in July 2004. An industry soft launch for carriers and advertisers begins June 1, 2004.
"It has taken more than seven years and millions of dollars to arrive at this day," says president and chairman Frank Olsen. "Clearly, the time to launch this network is now, and I am confident that the gay and lesbian community will embrace the unique perspective we offer as a family channel."
In a pre-public move to preview a sample of its programming to cable and satellite industry professionals, as well as potential advertisers, Q Television Network will offer a compressed daily broadcast that includes featured programs. The sample highlights Q Television's availability for carriage and sponsorship.
As executive vice president Steven Grunberg notes, "This is built by and for the gay community. Rather than a smattering of stereotyped gay characters offered because current market projections indicate it would be profitable, we offer a channel that will unite the gay and lesbian audience through a network that educates, entertains and informs - a network of real value."
Beginning June 1, the network will be available for viewing on Intelsat America's 7, 129 degrees West, Channel 1.
Olsen, an entrepreneur with a significant background in broadcast, was instrumental in the launch of The Movie Channel prior to its acquisition by Showtime. A pioneer in the development of new radio broadcast formats throughout his 40-year career, Olsen helped create African American radio and started the first gay radio stations. "Just as CNN had tremendous hurdles to overcome, Frank and Q Television Network have had an uphill battle in the launch of Q Television," observes CFO Rene Schenk. "Q Television is positioned to successfully meet the demand that exists for a gay family channel."
Original and Acquired Programming
With a system of production crews throughout the United States, Q Television Network will offer a combination of original and acquired programming, which includes sports, fashion, travel, health & fitness, talk shows, plays, documentaries and movies. Teams of producers and directors will also bring breaking stories of interest to the network's audience via access to bureaus in Washington, D.C., New York, London, Paris, Moscow, Jerusalem and Iraq.
A preview of original programming premiered in May at the National Cable & Telecommunication Association's annual industry conference and was also included in a successful five-hour sample broadcast on May 15, which aired on Cox Cable in Louisiana and Comcast in the Puget Sound Region.
Included in that preview was "I Will, I Do, We Did," an original Q Television documentary exploring gay and lesbian marriage in America that offers an inside glimpse of the challenges faced by this community. Independent films, such as "An Intimate Friendship" and the award-winning "Straightman," are other examples of what will be available on the network, as well as commercial fare such as Bette Midler's "Divine Madness" concert.
About Q Television Network
This television network was organized to create and develop a network devoted to providing television programming for the gay and lesbian community. While the company expects much of its subscriber base to be comprised of members of the gay and lesbian population, management also believes that quality programming about the gay and lesbian experience, designed to entertain, educate and inform, will attract many other segments of the viewing public. The company's programming will be available on a subscription basis to those desiring its programming. The network will broadcast 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Providing distribution via satellite ensures availability of the network across the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
Safe Harbor Statement
As a cautionary note to investors, certain matters discussed in this press release may be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such matters involve risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially, including the following: changes in economic conditions; general competitive factors; the television network's ability to execute its business model and strategic plans; and the risks described from time to time in the company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Somewhere, on one of the boards, I've read that potential institutional investors monitor the QBID boards in order to keep tabs on the overall 'mood'. It is very possible that Frank & Co. have received some negative feedback from some of these potential investors that has it's roots in false statements made on these boards, thus prompting action.

If the last CC is any indication of what we are to expect tomorrow, than I am not personally expecting too much other than confirmation of what we already know, based on Franks PR s, Shareholder letters, Richard responses etc. I wish that Frank would have released the Audit Financials and the DVD prior to the CC– that would have really provided the shareholders with a good solid basis for questions. Instead, it is the other way around. I hope his answers to our questions are not “…this will be described the DVD” or this will be revealed in the “…audit financials,” etc. So in summary, I am a bit skeptical about the value of the CC itself. I hope I am wrong.

10/17/2005 - Q&A on Message Boards (revised)
Dear Shareholders,
***The company has also asked me to ask shareholders not to respond to posters you think may have an agenda. It is my belief and the companies that these people are somehow rewarded by responses. We understand how difficult this will be, but we feel this will help our cause in ridding these people from the boards. Thanks
Thank you for allowing me to answer some concerns you had. Like we discussed, there will always be disgruntled investors attacking whatever or whoever they can to hurt a company. Remember, QTN/TMM has an open door policy and although all of us are very busy, we will answer any concern you may have. I promise you this, no poster on the message boards know anymore than the rest of you in regards to the business structure of QTN or TMM. If you decide to believe what they have to say fine, but understand you are listening to a person that has an agenda to spin.
I am outraged at the length some individuals will go and equally as perplexed as to the reason. It's evident these individuals do not own stock in TMM and to post hundreds of times a day is unbelievable.
For shareholders that could not be a part of today's discussion:
Frank is NOT HIV
I have never been associated with the firm that some represented I was with and I have never been in trouble with the SEC
I am the only Richard Brown at Equity Relations. My father was an officer of Equity Relations, but has never had interaction with the company and has never been in a finance related position for any company
TMM is not liquidating itself
Frank Olsen has controlling voting rights of TMM and QTN
VC's (Venture Capitalists) DO NOT control any portion of QTN or TMM
We will prosecute all individuals posting fallacies on the internet
We have been in contact with the parent companies that run these websites and they are working with us
IF TMM and ITS SUBSIDIARIES i.e. QTN, etc. is sold shareholders will be directly compensated based upon the tender offer
As for the rest of the questions, please dial in to the conference call on Wednesday. The details are listed on the Investor's section of the website.

Here are some previous PRs that I think i'll post, just because they have been such a big issue in recent days.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: PALM SPRINGS, Calif. – April 15, 2005 – Triangle Multi-Media, (Pink Sheets: QBID) announced today that Triangle Multi-Media received notice that the retirement of 1,000,000,000 shares of QBID stock, which began in December 2004, is now finished, and the reduction in float has been complete.
The 1,000,000,000 retired shares are QBID common stock that was personally held by Frank Olsen, President and CEO of Q Television Network.

These 2 prs combined seem like they should have taken a lot of shares out of the float, thus eliminating a sinking boat.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: PALM SPRINGS, Calif. - August 2, 2005 -- Q TELEVISION NETWORK, (OTCBB Other: QBID), the first 24/7 premium network for the gay and lesbian community, announced today that, in an effort to bring fair value to its trading stock, QBID, Frank Olsen, President, CEO and majority shareholder, has converted all his personal QBID holdings into preferred stock, which makes up 53 % of the total shares.
"We converted QBID shares into preferred stock, eliminating fifty-three percent of the tradable outstanding shares. We are confident this will strengthen the demand for our stock, and dry up the supply of trading shares that we feel are being manipulated in the market," said Olsen. "Converting our common stock into preferred stock will allow us to retain voting rights, but will also squeeze out the large short position in the stock. Q Television will continue to be as aggressive as possible, and do everything necessary to ensure our shareholders are treated fairly."

On a different/similar topic about posters. Whatever happened to that KoreanVet poster POS that was posting false rumors and letters with Frank's signature. IMO the Q should have been dealt with him – that was BS! Anyhow, I guess the morale of the story is do not start negative rumors about a CEO's health - everything thing else if fair game in the Pinks. But hopefully not for long.

Thanks Wangdo, but that's the same info. It comes from a company PR which proceeds the re-written bio...
and they later inserted "Hospitality" before "Movie" in all subsequent mentions as quoted here:
"He was president of The Hospitality Movie Channel which he sold that business to Showtime/Viacom."
And aside from the company stating it, just one source, any source, where it isn't from the company itself or that same bio...
hey, I spent a lot of time trying to DD this myself, so i don't expect that someone is going to just shoot up a link cuz it isn't that easy.
the info just isn't there.

sid if that is the case and it materially effects the business of Q then I stand corrected. I was just expressing a thought that responding to bashers was not entirely necessary, especially if it costs money to do so. If those comments keep away institutional investing then maybe responding was good. I want to see Q go through the roof just like everyone else here.
