No Matter What Murdoch Says, Fox Is Still Pulling For The Tea Party
Blog ››› ››› OLIVIA KITTEL
On Tax Day, Fox hosts provided a platform for six Tea Party members, disproving Ruport Murdoch's claim that the network doesn't promote the Tea Party.
During a March 2014 interview with Fortune, Rupert Murdoch called "bullshit" on the assertion that Fox News has gone to bat for the Tea Party, saying, "we don't promote the Tea Party. That's bullshit. We recognize their existence." But just as Fox can be credited with a staggering amount of early Tea Party promotion in 2009, Fox hosts celebrated Tax Day 2014 by hosting a number of Tea Partiers to discuss the movement.
On the April 15 edition of On The Record, host Greta Van Susteren questioned why the Tea Party hadn't planned any large scale events in honor of Tax Day and hosted three Tea Party members to promote the movement's new political plan. Van Susteren painted the Tea Party as victims, claiming that the movement has been "unfairly demonized by some members of politics." Van Susteren even gave the floor to the Tea Partiers to promote their favorite hopefuls for the 2016 presidential election:
Your World host Neil Cavuto likewise commemorated the five year anniversary of the Tea Party's first Tax Day protests by featuring three additional prominent Tea Party members. Cavuto implied the Tea Party has been unfairly attacked as "villains" and "cooks" and complained that the mainstream media was not interested in covering Tea Party protests, which they regarded as "not cool" compared to the Occupy movement:
Murdoch's claim that Fox News merely recognizes the Tea Party flies in the face of the network's longstanding history of bolstering the movement, a trend that began with heavy reporting on the party's first events in 2009. Fox was so excited about their early coverage of the first Tax Day Tea Party event that they ran over 107 advertisements and hosted a virtual tea party.

Feather Love Photography Workshop
Back in February, I saw that Noa Azoulay-Sclater, artist and owner of Feather Love Photography was looking for an assistant for her Bay Area Workshop. I applied thinking there was no way I would get it. I'm not a photographer, I'm not even an aspiring photographer. My background is in public relations, I'm a planner, an organizer, a stationery designer. I just wanted to be surrounded by people who could help me grow personally and creatively. When I found out I had gotten the job, I spent a good hour zippity-do-dah dancing around my apartment.
Over the next few months, Noa and I worked closely to pull together all of the details for a successful workshop. I knew this workshop was her baby and as I got to know Noa and take on more and more, this workshop became my baby too. I drove in to Pacifica the night before the workshop nervous and anxious. It was to be my first time meeting Noa in person and everything that I had been working on for the last few months was finally coming to fruition. I knew that so much was riding on this.
The workshop flowed over the next two days, with Noa sharing her insight on the photography industry, letting go of expectations, breaking down walls and finding your creative voice as an individual. Somehow in a room among 20+ others, the setting felt intimate and real. There were breakthroughs, some public, expressed with tears, others nodded in agreement and for me personally, the realization that I had found a group of people who understood exactly what I have been going through in quitting my full time job to pursue a career that I am passionate about.
I don't know how she did it, but it felt like Noa found a way to give each and every one of us exactly what we needed to move forward with our own individual creative pursuit. She filled a void and has calmed some of my fears. Given me a new sense of confidence that yes, I CAN and WILL be successful in my new career.
In addition to all of this goodness, the workshop included guest speaker Chloe Aftel who taught the art of shooting with poloroids, Anne Sage from The City Sage and Rue Magazine who shared her insight on social media, blogging and running an online magazine. There was a photo shoot for Rue Magazine with styling by Erin of Apartment 34 that was GORGEOUS and a personal highlight for me was Tim and Nicki Bluhm who shared a gift with us when they performed a few songs from their last and upcoming album!
I walked away from the workshop having attained my goal, feeling inspired and moved beyond belief and having met an amazing group of creative people who I can identify with. I feel privileged to have attended the workshop. As I was leaving to head home, I told Noa I feel like I've won. I'm so lucky to have worked with her and to continue working with her moving forward. And I mean it!

Sounds like an amazing experience! Wish I could have been there. I went to high school with Noa in the 80s! Glad to be connected on Twitter and Facebook and seeing all the amazing things Noa is doing. Thanks for sharing Stacy! XXReplyDelete
This was great to read about your experience at the workshop. If funny because you seem so composed and so sure of yourself and the workshop you would have never guessed that you too need assurance and inspiration like the rest of us. You go girl and get that successful career you deserve it! As Noa said "If you want something MAKE IT HAPPEN"ReplyDelete
I am a huge Noa fan. Her photography and general take on life is so special and unique in a sea of sameness. I thought about this workshop in the months leading up to it and really wanted to attend but it was not the right timing for me. So happy you got to be a part of it. What a great experience.ReplyDelete

UAB Fans,
I hope you enjoyed your "off week" as much as I did. I got to make a quick trip out west to see my sister and her family. We watched football, ate, and watched a little more football. As much fun as going to games and calling games are, a true off day during the season is good for EVERYONE! The Blazers got away from football over the weekend, and let's hope the extra time between games will allow some of those bumps and bruises to heal nicely.
Neil Callaway's team should still have some momentum, despite the down time, following the emotional, hard-fought win on Homecoming over the Thundering Herd of Marshall. The Blazers had to overcome an early deficit and some miscues in the second half that might have caused earlier editions of the Green and Gold to question whether they'd enjoy another victory celebration this season. Coach Callaway preached about handling adversity, something the Blazers did NOT do against UH. This time around, nothing seemed to faze UAB. The players and coaches were determined to put 60 solid minutes together, and they did just that. It wasn't easy...it wasn't always pretty...but the Blazers never doubted themselves, the coaches or the game plan. The result was the first conference win of the year and the first victory over Marshall.
(By the way, the win over the Herd looks better and better after Marshall whipped up on Houston earlier this week on national television.)
Now it's time to build on that victory...remember that good feeling after the game...and for a little more motivation, remember what Southern Miss did to the Blazers at Legion Field last year. UAB heads to Hattiesburg on Saturday for the 9th meeting between the Green and Gold and the Golden Eagles. USM exploded in the second quarter of last year's game and cruised to an easy victory, the easiest in the history of the series, in Birmingham. There have been plenty of close games and near-misses for the Blazers, but they've never quite gotten over the hump against Southern Miss.
The Golden Eagles come into the game with a new head coach, Larry Fedora, and a five-game losing streak, too. It's hard to figure out why USM has struggled this year, but one thing is for sure, they have too much talent on both sides of the ball for it to continue TOO much longer. Let's just hope it does for one more week, and the Green and Gold can walk out of newly-expanded Roberts Stadium with the school's first-ever football victory over USM.
Kickoff is at 7 PM...CSS will televise the game...and the Blazers ISP Sports Network will be on the air starting at 5:30 PM with pre-game coverage.
It is so hard to believe we are entering the final month of the regular season. It seems like only yesterday we were getting ready for the high-octane Tulsa offense...feel free to root for the Golden Hurricane this weekend...TU is at Arkansas (a game filled with subplots and storylines), and Tulsa is very much in the running for a BCS berth. A win in Fayetteville would keep them undefeated...add some needed credibility to the league...and put them one step closer to a very nice payday for Conference USA come bowl season!
As for another team to keep your eye on this weekend...how about the UAB volleyball team? They wrap up a long home stand this weekend, and go into Friday night's meeting with East Carolina on some kind of roll. The Blazers have won a school-record 14 straight matches! Kerry Messersmith's team stands at 20-3 overall and 10-1 in Conference USA. They'll enjoy Senior Night festivities prior to the start of the 7 PM match with ECU, and then UAB closes out the home stand AND the home schedule with Marshall on Sunday afternoon at one o'clock. Best of luck to the Blazers!
Also want to wish the women's cross country team the best of luck this Saturday when they head to Memphis for the Conference USA Championships!
It's going to be a busy weekend for the Green and Gold...get out and enjoy some of the action. Hope to see you in Hattiesburg and...

Have Parenting Questions? Ask a Parenting Counselor for Answers
I guess my main concern is that things so far at school have come very easy for him without trying and as with sports I can see a problem in the future when the school work becomes harder he won't know how to cope.
Just to let you know that he does want to make the travel hockey team very badly but despite that fact he won't put any effort into the task. Being good at something without putting any effort into the activity is not going to get him very far in life regardless if it is a sport or school work.
His entire personality is very layed back, he moves at one speed; slow, despite any time restraints. I am probably making to much of this but I do believe a good work ethic will get him far in this world and I don't think 7 is too earily to start but my efforts so far are not getting us anywhere. Chores are a big chore to get him to complete.
He is a wonderful loving child that any parent would love to parent. I just want to avoid major problems in the future.

text: Posted July 26, 2014 Yet again Fan Fest has come and gone. Due to the CBA regulations, the players did not wear pads. So, unlike in years past, fan fest did not feature an actual scrimmage. Still, it was great to see the guys in action. Before practice began, Cam had some encouragement for Greg Hardy, who was fairly quit for the practice. It an awkward situation Hardy is in, but everyone is trying to make the best of it. I noticed KB tends to stick his tongue out quite a bit. It worked for Jordan, but I am not so sure its a great idea in football... Cam Newton and Ryan Kalil continue to develop great chemistry. I think it is under appreciated how well these guys do together. Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis threw on the sidelines for a while. Davis kept putting some heat on the ball and causing Luke to drop them with the crowd watching, which wasn't appreciated. The two really do seem like brothers. The usual conditioning and training drills began. We got our first look at Tyler Gaffney. Gaffney may see increased snaps at the start of training camp due to Jonathan Stewart's hamstring pull. Gaffney really needs to take advantage of it. Chandler and Bell once again split time at both tackle positions throughout the day. Dave Gettleman was seen on the sidelines looking over his squad. He was joking around with Charles Johnson a bit and seems to really have the respect of the players. I think they relate to him well as an ex-football coach. Cam looked healthy and was able to perform all that was asked of him. It is not surprise that Josh Norman looked good. He always looked good in camp and in practice. Can he make his way out of the dog house this season? Tavarres King made a really nice grab that was initially bobbled in the air during wr/cb matchups. In an actual game, it may have been picked off by a safety. None the less, it was impressive to watch. Byron Bell was drawn offsides by Charles Johnson. The flag would probably gone against Johnson I believe, Cam's hard count the credit. There is little doubt in my mind that Trai Turner is our day 1 starter at right guard. The man is a double wide. Swole Bones Brandon Williams also made some nice grabs with the first string. If he can produce this year it is going to be huge for the Panthers offense. Hello two tight end sets! Any time I can take a picture and have two future All Pro players in the frame, its a picture worth taking. Benjamin made a nice grab from Cam in heavy traffic and headed for the end zone. He continues to flash and could be a breakout player this year. Deangelo looked good, as usual. He has never had an issue with conditioning in camp. We tend to take that for granted. Could Vinnie Testaverde's influence on him still linger? Kenjon Barner is quick. He gets to the outside faster than any running back on the roster. He also made a couple of really nice grabs. I know some of you have written him off, but I haven't. Cam had a blast directing "the wave" with the crowd. I can't think of another player in Panthers history with so much likeability and charisma. The best play of the day goes to Bersin with a gorgeous TD grab over Byndom. After practice, it is easy to see who is the most sought after player by the media for a quote. Hope you enjoyed these photos. I am heading to Spartanburg on Saturday for the kickoff party. If you are there, please be sure to say hello! 84 people like this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hollywood Hillbillies: 'Gingers Do Have Souls' Kid Lands Own Reality Show After Viral YouTube Video, Honey Boo Boo to Compete? WATCH CLIP from Michael Kittrell's 'South Park' Rant
The "Gingers Do Have Souls" kid now has his own TV show called the "Hollywood Hillbillies."
According to Zap2it, ReelzChannel announced that "Hollywood Hillbillies" will follow YouTube sensation Michael Kittrell and his family while they move from Grayson, Ga. to Hollywood to spend money they say they made on the Internet.
"Hollywood Hillbillies" will follow Kittrell, his grandmother, a.k.a "Mema," Delores Hughes, two other family members, John Cox and Dee Dee Peters, and her boyfriend Paul Conion.
"Hollywood has just gained some weight. Country has come to town, and we are 2 tons of fun, let me tell you." Delores' daughter Dee Dee Peters told reporters at the TCA press tour presentation on Sunday, July 18. "We've put the fun in dysfunctional, I'm telling you."
Kittrell is just looking for love.
"I'm single," he said. "So if any ladies out there are looking, they're into redheads ... I'm definitely your man [roars]. I'm a tiger. I'm a lot of fun. I'm not the best‑looking guy, but I'm a lot of fun."
And don't mistake this family to be similar to Honey Boo Boo's whose show has become major hit on TLC.
"She needs to be spanked," said Dee Dee. "I mean, I'm sorry. She's terrible. If I would be acting like that, we would have been buried in the backyard."
Kittrell became an Internet celebrity after his 3-minute YouTube video went viral.
Zap2it describes further:
Michael Kittrell's three-minute heated video response to an episode of "South Park," in which he bemoans being called a "fat ginger," garnered more than 34 million YouTube views, and was parodied may times over. Even the writers of "South Park" took notice and responded back with a clip of their own, animating Michael and some of the famous lines from his rant, including, "It really irritates me when people say that redheads don't have souls. Because we do have souls alright?" And: "I go to church. I'm a Christian. You don't know me. You're not God."
"Hollywood Hillbillies" will debut in January 2014.

Next Round 11
WRC Spain - Rallye de Espana - Catalunya - October 1-4
Official Website:
The entry list is now complete ahead of the World Rally Championship's penultimate round of the year at Rally Spain. 80 crews representing 28 different countries have signed up for the event situated on Catalonia's Costa Daurada.
The event's 45th edition will be based in Salou from October 1st to 4th, with rally headquarters next to the Port Aventura park.
Following the Citroen camp's post-rally penalty in Australia, victory shifted from Sebastien Loeb to Mikko Hirvonen and gave the Finn a five-point advantage in the drivers' standings. The Spanish round will therefore be crucial in conquering the 2009 crown.
The situation also means that a number of Citroen C4 WRCs and Ford Focus RS WRCs could very well play an important part in the title fight, and all five teams participating in the World Rally Championship will have at least two cars defending their interests in Spain.

"Just received the cards; they were better than expected. Thick, quality paper. I splurged for the iridescent paper but due to the background color of the card, the pearlescent quality does not show up, so I wouldn't spring for that for this particular card. The regular card stock will do. Overall, happy with the card."
"We were looking for some race car invites for our son's 2nd birthday. All of the ones we looked at (online) were bulky and too busy. We were so happy when we found this one because it goes with the theme but also is simple, easy to read, and a perfect size to place on the fridge. Colors are calming and the card stock is wonderful. I also like how you can add a photo to the back of the invite."
"The only mistake I made was not paying attention to the size of the invitation. The diameters were listed but I didn't look until I received them and noticed they were smaller then I would have liked them to be. Overall the quality is excellent."

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Seven weeks into the season, and there's still no shortage of dramatic games. The Patriots barely avoided another upset. So did the Giants, for that matter. Houston took command of the AFC. San Francisco took over their division. The Wildcard situation, tight as it is, makes for a constantly shifting group of teams. With everything as volatile as its ever been, let's look at what would happen if the playoffs started as of Tuesday, October 23:
A bye week kept the Falcons undefeated, but they're still very talented. With their ability to win close games, Atlanta will be a force against many teams.
What more needs to be said about Chicago? Their defense is by far the best in the NFL, and their offense is great as well. One could easily count the Bears among the Super Bowl favorites.
No doubt the Packers will be looking for revenge after the Giants eliminated them last season in the divisional round, but Green Bay is a lot worse this year. The G-Men have the best offense in the NFC, and Green Bay isn't exactly known for defense. We've been seeing across the league this season that elite offenses no longer make up for porous defenses as they have in previous years.
Similarly, San Francisco will be looking for revenge after losing in Minnesota set them back earlier this season. Not only do they have the defense that can get after a young quarterback in Christian Ponder, but their offense, not exactly known to be powerful in the Alex Smith era, has picked up enough this season to keep up with Minnesota's.
In hosting Baltimore, Houston really asserted themselves in the AFC. Putting up 43 points and surrendering just 13 against a team like Baltimore will do that. Certainly, Houston established themselves as the top contender from the AFC.
Speaking of Baltimore, the holes in their defense sans Ray Lewis showed themselves. Baltimore still has plenty of talent, but a blueprint like the kind Houston created really makes it difficult on a team following a tough loss like that.
The Dolphins moved up during their bye because the teams ahead of them lost, and they have a good enough conference record to hold #6. The Patriots again showed a drastic inability to close out games, which will cost them in the playoffs. Still, Tom Brady and the offense will be able to torch any defense at any time, something even the pretty good Miami defense must watch out for. And Miami's relatively low profile rookie quarterback has only been the top passer once, and still had trouble putting up enough points against the Cardinals (24-21 loss). New England has the edge for now, but it only gets more interesting for them from there.
Both teams had their bye week after Denver scored 35 straight to get the win in San Diego. Considering San Diego blew a 24-point lead at halftime, that makes it even more impossible to bet against Peyton Manning at home.

During the past two weeks, the Supreme Court scheduled dates for the health care arguments in March, HHS outlined guidelines for the states on essential benefits requirements, CMS announced the selection of 20 health systems and 12 physician groups to participate in a "Pioneer" Accountable Care Organization initiative, and Rep. Paul Ryan and Sen. Ron Wyden released a bipartisan Medicare proposal.
On Monday (12/19), the Supreme Court said that arguments in the health care lawsuit are set to begin March 26. Though most cases are allotted an hour for argument, the Court scheduled five and a half hours for the health care case. The central part of the arguments will occur on Tuesday March 27 and will focus on the minimum-coverage provision. A decision in the case is expected by the end of June.
On Friday (12/16), HHS released a bulletin outlining the benefits insurers must offer under the Affordable Care Act. The guidelines are vague on details, which will give states more flexibility to implement the reform law. HHS seeks feedback to the guidelines before it releases a final regulation on these essential benefits requirements in the near future. The announcement sparked criticism from a number of interest groups. Consumer advocates expressed concern that Americans would be offered substantially less comprehensive insurance than the law's drafters intended. Employers and insurers were concerned about the alternative – that states might make benefits packages so comprehensive they would be prohibitively expensive.
On Monday (12/19), CMS said it selected 20 health systems and 12 physician groups to participate in a "Pioneer" accountable care organization initiative. Pioneer ACOs differ from other ACOs in that they can reap a greater share of savings but take on more risk. The groups range from small and rural to big and urban and include the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center and the University of Michigan Medical Center.
In its first year of operation the CMS Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation developed a dozen new initiatives to reform the health care system. Among them are new payment models, ACO initiatives, mentorship programs, and plans to turn health centers into medical homes. The Commonwealth Fund published a report highlighting the center's work, describing the 12 initiatives.
On Monday (12/19), the Department of Justice said that the Affordable Care Act helped it to recover about $2.4 billion through health care fraud cases in the past year.
New data released by the federal government indicates that the Affordable Care Act has enabled up to 2.5 million young adults to receive health insurance, and that the percentage of Americans 19-25 years old without health insurance has decreased from 34 percent to 29 percent since the beginning of 2010.
HHS issued the final rule governing the Consumer Operated and Oriented Plan program (Co-Op Program) to provide loans for the creation of consumer-governed, private and nonprofit health insurance issuers to offer health plans in state health insurance exchanges.
On Thursday (12/15), House Budget Committee Chairman Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) and Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) released a bipartisan Medicare proposal. The congressmen outlined the proposal in a pamphlet. The model would transition Medicare for those under 55 into a system in which individuals are given subsidies, called premium supports, to choose among competing private health insurance plans. The plan would also keep traditional Medicare as a permanent option for seniors. Under the proposal, the government would only subsidize an amount equal to the bid proposed by the second-cheapest plan, and if an individual would prefer a more expensive plan, he or she can pay the difference.
The House of Representatives approved a payroll tax extension, which includes a two-year fix to the physician payment formula. It would temporarily prevent the looming 27.4 percent Medicare payment cut to physicians and provide a 1 percent payment update to doctors for the next two years.
On Thursday (12/15) CMS announced its rejection of Florida's request and on Monday (12/19) announced its rejection of Michigan's request for adjustments to the medical-loss-ratio standard requiring health plans to spend 80 cents of every premium dollar on medical care.
On Thursday (12/15), a legislative committee gave the Colorado Health Benefits Exchange board approval to apply for an $18 million federal grant.

Citation: Choi, M., Tae, W.K., Kustas, W.P. 2011. Reliable estimation of evapotranspiration on agricultural fields predicted by Priestley-Taylor model using soil moisture data from ground and remote sensing observations compared with Common Land Model. International Journal of Remote Sensing. 32(16):4571-4587. Interpretive Summary: Reliable evapotranspiration (ET) estimates are critical in evaluating the hydrologic cycle and water resources for watersheds and regions. In addition, ET is an important metric used in assessing environmental conditions such as drought in natural and agricultural ecosystems. Providing spatially-distributed maps of ET required for watershed and regional assessments is problematic using ground observations, so models been developed using remotely sensed inputs that range in level of complexity from empirical to physically-based approaches, fully treating soil-vegetation-atmosphere interactions. A relatively simple model, the Priestley-Taylor (P-T) approach, and the complex physically-based Common Land Model (CLM) are compared for a corn-soybean production region encompassing Ames, Iowa. ET measurements are compared to output from these two models using ground and remotely sensed soil moisture data as a constraint to potential ET computed by the P-T model. Results show that the relatively simple P-T formulation performs as well as the complex processed-based CLM scheme when the soil moisture constraint on the P-T technique is imposed, which can be derived from remote sensing. This suggests that remote sensing-based methods using relatively simple ET formulations may provide reliable estimates for agricultural crops at watershed and regional scales.
Technical Abstract: Evapotranspiration (ET) is a crucial factor in understanding the hydrologic cycle and essential to many applications in hydrology, ecology, and water resources management. However, reliable ET measurements and predictions for a range of temporal and spatial scales are difficult. This study focuses on the comparison of ET estimates using a relatively simple model, the Priestley-Taylor (P-T) approach and the physically-based Common Land Model (CLM) using ground and remotely sensed soil moisture data as input. The results from both models were directly compared with hourly eddy covariance measurements at two agricultural field sites during the Soil Moisture-Atmosphere Coupling Experiment in the corn soybean production region in the upper Midwest, United States. The P-T model showed a significant overestimation of the potential ET compared to the measurements with a root-mean square error (RMSE) between 115 and 130 Wm-2. Actual ET was better predicted by the CLM with RMSE ranging between 50 and 75 Wm-2. However, the actual ET from the P-T model constrained with a soil moisture dependency parameterization showed improved results when compared to the measurements with a significantly reduced bias and RMSE values between 60 and 65 Wm-2. This study suggests that even with a simple semi-empirical ET model similar performance in estimating actual ET for agricultural crops compared to more complex land surface-atmosphere models (i.e., CLM) can be achieved when constrained with the soil moisture function. This may imply that remote sensing soil moisture estimates from the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer - Earth Observing System and others such as Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity may be an effective alternative under certain environmental conditions for estimating actual ET of agricultural crops using a fairly simple algorithm.

Family creates fund for assault survivor
The family of a woman, who was the victim of a home invasion, stabbing and sexual assault Jan. 4, has set up a fund for her.
"She has no disability and she is still listed in critical condition, but she's recovering. It's going to be a long recovery," said cousin Nancy Sanchez.
Family members will be gathering this weekend to move her furniture from her house because she cannot [auth] afford to keep it while she is in the hospital.
Kenneth Whiteside, 18, broke into her home in the 900 block of Pecan Drive around 6 a.m. He took televisions, jewelry and a gaming station.
He stabbed, raped and beat the woman before he left. She had to go to a neighbor's house to call police. Doctors at a local emergency room confirmed the victim had been stabbed in the neck and sides.
"She is a single mother. She has three kids. Her children are pretty traumatized, but they were not hurt. They were staying with their dad at the time," said Sanchez.
The children will continue to stay with their family members until their mother can come home.
Speaking for the family, Sanchez said: "We are pretty shocked. You don't know what to do in a situation like this."
The shock was shared by the community. Her neighbors held a candlelight vigil for her Jan. 5.
"We have set up a fund for her through Wells Fargo Bank at any location in any state," said Sanchez.
She explained that anyone who wants to donate can go to Wells Fargo and mention the account by name: "The Roswell Victim Fund."

We tried to warn you guys months ago to start paying attention to Toronto Blue Jays' 3B Brett Lawrie's new girlfriend Paige Brendel. One thing leads to another and her Twitpics start including the likes of a bed photo with the Canadian heartthrob. Our interest in this Lawrie-Brendel relationship is like opening a book on how a WAG rises from nothing to something on the Internet. Let's be honest, Brendel is 4-5 bikini photos this summer from being an Internet star.
Perfect scenario would be Brendel rolling into Miami for the Blue Jays visit to South Beach June 22-24. That gives her ample time to hit the beach, upload said bikini photos and she's a huge star by Monday, June 25 – at least in Canada.
For those of you not in the know, Lawrie is the next coming of Evan Longoria for the Blue Jays. He's just 22, 6-0, 215 lbs., tatted up, has perfect hair and women are totally nuts over this guy. For example, this week in Toronto, Lawrie was the special guest at a Victoria's Secret in-store shoot with model Elsa Hosk (see below). He played in 43 games last year, batting .293. Through 23 games this year, Lawrie is off to a .278 start with two dongs and 13 RBI. He's headed for multiple all-star games. Guaranteed.
This means Brendel needs to be on top of her game. That's why the bikini pics are going to make or break 2012 in her rookie WAG season. Sure, she can mingle with the other Blue Jays WAGs all she wants and make friends. However, there is a way to keep your MLB meal ticket and that's to be a star yourself.
The bed shot is a start. This is the kind of material we can turn into posts. It's just May. Plenty of time for this chick to ramp up her campaign and keep Lawrie happy. All eyes are now on that Miami trip.

99 1.8t automatic variant with tiptronic
I was pulled over tonight by the local police who gave me a "Fixit Ticket" as he called it...giving me 6 days to repair a problem. Apparently my reverse lights were on while I was driving. After a bit of testing in a parking lot I found out that when I slowly move the selector from P through R and N, then to D, the reverse lights stay on. If I do the same procedure but quickly the reverse lights do not have a chance to go on (maybe a flicker) and all is well.
There are no other issues with other lights.
Any ideas as to what the problem might be?? A failing switch? A dirty contact??
Not sure if it has anything to do with this, but it was -30 C at the time.

A unique BBC application
This is my first post on Hotrodders- so I should first say thanks to all the helpful info that Ive been able to gather from searching these past few months. Ive been doing a lot of reading since my father and I bought an inboard ski boat with a 454 in July. For those familiar, its a '79 Barefoot Nautique, which was the first year that Correct Craft made this barefoot-specific model. I realize this is a pretty unique application compared to most here, so I figured Id throw a few questions out there that I couldnt find answers to.
First of all, here's what I know. Most Barefoot Nautiques came with 330 hp 454's, which were typical marine longblocks with peanut port heads. These boats typically topped out around 48-49mph. We first suspected that this one had been previously worked on when some carb and ignition tuning produced a much stronger 56mph on the gps. We started pulling casting numbers and here's what we've got (from Mortec):
Block: 14015445, 454 2 or 4 bolt 75 87
Intake: 3933163, fits 68-69 396 375 hp, 427 425 hp
heads: 6272990, 70-up...rect...OPEN...454 service replacement, used on some MKIV crate engines, 118cc chamber
The engine is running great, but we will be pulling it over the winter since we are doing some structural repairs to the boat. We're considering tinkering with the engine to some degree if there are easy ways to add hp. I do not know anything about the pistons (I assume the block has been apart at some point), is there any way to determine my CR without pulling the heads? I also dont know anything about the cam- though I plan to measure at least the lift before doing anything. I suspect that it may be a stock-ish cam (peak hp on the 330hp engine occurs at ~4400), for 2 reasons. 1) We did not pick up any extra speed when we changed props that gave us 300 extra RPM at wide open throttle (5200rpm vs. 4900rpm). 2)This is a reverse rotation motor, so the availability of reverse rotation BBC blanks is and was an area that no one seems to know much about- including the Correct Craft forum, which has a lot of reverse rotation knowledge.
Based on the boats performance, my guess is that the engine is putting out somewhere in the neighborhood of 400hp, right around 5000 RPM. We would like more, obviously, without any adverse affects- namely low end power. We get an instant 2500 RPM or so from a standstill now, and while the holeshot is OK, its not great. Without propping down, we'd like to at least keep what we've got. I know the rectangle port heads are likely to be called overkill for our application, but it does run strong once the boat gets on plane, so Im hesitant to change them (though if building from a stock 330hp engine in the future, Id probably pick 781's or 049's as are commonly suggested).
I am not sure if a stroker is in the cards, but if I can convince Dad, whats the optimal size we should consider going up to? Ideally, Id like to see a powerband of 2500-5500 or so with the 990 heads, with a max RPM of 5500 or so (we can play with the prop to dial this in). Reliability is also key. What should we be looking at for a compression ratio- ~9:1? We run 93 octane now and dont mind doing so. What about cam? How big can we go on 454ci and not harm the bottom end power? Comp tells me they do reverse rotation BBC cams, though Im not super confident in the info I was given.
We do a fair amount of barefooting (39-45mph), so we need useable power, but we also would love to have the bragging rights that a 60mph ski boat would afford! I think another 50hp would get us there. If it matters, we're running a Performance Distributors DUI (HEI) with 24 degrees of advance (initial is set to ~12 deg) and a 750cfm 4160/4150 marine carb with the choke horn milled off. It starts and idles great right now.
Thanks in advance for any input!

56 MPH on a 454 BBC? how heavy is that boat?? my faimily used to have a 21' 1973 Starcraft Chieftan cabin cruiser with a 181 CI Chevy 4cyl with a Mercruiser I/O outdrive and in calm water, would turn out 53 MPH on the GPS.
Diffrent pitch props can effectivly change your powerband sort of how a torque converter works
Inboard tournament ski boats are built to pull- the term "water tractor" comes to mind. Theyre not built for top speed though- most small block V8 direct drives (not v-drives) top out in the mid 40's. Typical wakeboard speeds are in the 20's, slalom skiing speeds in the 30-36 range, and barefooting in the 38-45 range, so theres little functional reason for them to go faster... but there are some of us who think building up classic inboards with big V8's is a lot of fun. Naturally there are some bragging rights involved, hence my question.
To answer your question, the boat is about 18', and dry weight should be around 2700 lbs with the big block. My guess is that its a few lbs heavier than that due to a soaking wet structure underneath the floor, so its getting rebuilt this year.
With those heads you may want to shoot for 6500 rpm to meet your goal.I dont know anything about reverse rotation cams,but you could call UDHarold Brookshire for a custon grind,662-562-4933,or 662-301-1245.You may also want to consider going with a solid roller cam.There are better intake manifolds available,the one you have is decent,but its an old design from the 60's.A Weiand Stealth would be a better choice.Your carb is a bit on the small side,an 800 might be better suited,and your timing is too low,big blocks like to have 36-38 degrees BTDC total timing in by 3-3500 rpm.If I were you,I would work on this combo before going stroker.
Ski Boat
Hey TRB, Nice ski boat. I'm a HotBoat guy too, 20ft Eliminator, hotrod sbc, mercruiser. I've always wanted to get my hands on a v-drive ski boat and modify it for high speed rather than its low speed pulling power. Alot can be done, gear ratio changes, prop size and pitch, engine hop ups, etc. But all these modifications are a trade off, reducing pulling power for higher top speed. In your case, you can have your cake and eat it too. There are several torque boosting modifications that will increase your top speed without losing low end grunt to get skiers up on the water.
About your engine, its likely 8.5:1 CR so it will run on any junk marina gas available. Most had 224/224@.050 .500/.500 lift cams. It likely has forged pistons. As far as reverse rotation thats a reverse ground camshaft & distributor gear. This is normally reserved for twin engine boats, I'm not so sure your engine is reverse rotation, got a feeling its just a reverse rotation propeller because of the v-drive gear box. The rectangle port heads are generally too large for operation in the 5000rpm range. The marine manufacturers had to use what GM had available in the Gen 4 era. There were the peanut port truck heads, the medium port pass car heads(781,049) and the big rect. port heads. When GM quit producing the medium port heads, marine manufacturers chose the still available rect. port heads vs. the peanut port heads that were weak on the upper end.
I think that stroking your engine is way overkill. You can probably get what you want with some torque boosting. Aftermarket high performance exhaust manifolds, change the rectangle port heads out to medium port with big valves, maybe a cam change, but in that order. Likely the exhaust manifolds will get you what you want.
You should get this book; Big Block Chevy Marine Performance by Dennis Moore. It is loaded with information specific to marine performance engines, tons of part numbers, specific camshaft recommendations, etc. Ok, there's food for thought, hope it helps. olnolan
EDIT- I had to leave the computer for a while, now I see it's a direct drive, not a v-drive. The torque boosting approach is still valid though.olnolan

I realize the rectangle port heads like lots of RPMs to make power, but Im very leary of running 6500 on this application. Thats a ton of RPM's for a ski boat thats always under heavy load (unlike a car). We'd be pushing 5k RPM's at barefooting speeds with a prop that allowed us to turn that much at WOT, which we hold for minutes at a time. Reliability is a major concern! The factory HO 454's from the late 70's through the mid 80's were rated between 390 and 425 hp and were propped the same as the 330hp motors- they just spun more RPM's (5500 vs. 4400), hence my desire to keep RPM's in the mid-5k range. This is why I mentioned stroker- a few more cubes would help me take better advantage of my existing heads while keeping the RPM's down, right? Ive built engines before, but Im still a BBC newbie.
Ill give Harold a call and see what he can tell me- thanks for the reference! Ive been looking for a BBC cam expert, I dont have a lot of faith in the techs at Comp when it comes to this oddball application. (Ive found Cam Research to be a great resource for my Ford boats.) From what I understand though, a roller cam is going to be big bucks- apparently those blanks would need to be custom made and run $2k+, which isnt in the cards. Id just like to stick with a warmed up hydraulic flat tappet that can make better use of my top end flow without killing my bottom end power... hopefully theres a happy medium here.
As far as the Stealth goes, I assume you mean something like the 8018 (dual plane, rectangle ports)? Ive got one of these on a 351w and absolutely love it. Any idea how the height compares to the vintage piece Ive got? Ive got workarounds if there are motorbox clearance issues- just curious.
As far as timing goes, Ive got 24 degrees of advance built into the DUI, so with 12 initial, we're seeing about 36 total and its all in by 3000 RPM's. The ignition upgrade really woke up the holeshot of the boat, so it was a huge upgrade from the antique Mallory that was on there before.
The factory carb on the 330hp 454 was a 650cfm Holley. For whatever reason, marine engines seem to run pretty well with the smaller carbs- my 302's run 450cfm, my 351w a 600cfm. I figure unless I want to run this 454 past 6500rpm (which would require 768cfm at 90% VE) or stroke it to 496 and run it past 5800rpm (which requires 750cfm at 90% VE) then what Ive got should work, right? Or are BBC's notorious for running better with huge carbs?
Concerning the reverse rotation engine, it definitely is. Correct Craft primarily installed RH engines in all of their direct drives from the early 60's through 1989, at which point they introduced a transmission that reversed the direction of engine rotation. This allowed them to keep the RH prop that offsets the weight of the driver and keeps the boat running level with just one person aboard (important for the ski wake). I havent torn it down yet, but everything Ive read indicates that the reverse rotation 454's (and possibly all RR Chevies) run gear to gear timing sets that have the cam spinning the same as a LH engine, albeit with a reverse firing order. This keeps the dist gear the same as a LH engine. (My RR Fords do it as you mentioned with reverse cut dist gears and chain drive timing sets.) If a RH BBC chain drive cam exists, Id love to know about it!
With all the reading Ive done, I know the 781/049's are the way Id go if I was starting with a regular peanut port headed engine... but this thing already runs so strong once its on plane that I am very hesitant to swap out the 990's. It is easily among the fastest boats in our nationwide community of Correct Craft nuts, and Id like to keep it that way! Id like to keep the 990's and either boost the cubic inches if necessary, or just bump the CR and cam if that would be considered adequate. I dont plan on pulling the engine out of the boat more than once- so now is the time to get it right (thats why Im here). Like I said, the holeshot isnt bad as it sits, and the top end is amazing.
New exhaust manifolds are certainly in order, but I was hoping to go with a classic set of aluminum logs and do some port matching, rather than go with a high dollar set of new-tech shorty header type manifolds. I was already planning on increasing the exhaust size from dual 3" to either 3.5" or 4" (these are wet exhaust pipes, my 351w spinning to 5200rpm loves the 3.5" Ive got on it). Maybe I need to rethink this if the exhaust is a major BBC bottleneck.
Like you caught, its a direct drive with a 1:1 gearbox. I like the speed vs. RPM's its pulling now, so I dont see major prop changes in our future. It runs pretty good with both the 13x14 and 12.5x15 we've tried, I can play with the cup to get the WOT RPM's in check if necessary.
Its funny...ten years ago when I pulled the 454 out of my 79 Camaro, the guy I sold it too said he was putting it into a boat. Ironically, it had that same block and heads. Wish I had the numbers off it. It would be a hell of a coincidence if it was the same mill.
The block was from a 75 Monte Carlo and the heads were from a 1970 Ambulance. The Monte had the peanut heads so I dropped the big rectangles from the ambulance on the motor. No way to tell if it is the same mill, but wouldn't that be something!
Hey Bud, The rectangle port heads are highly regarded for automotive applications,will flow @7000+rpms. Like Guy Hiltz suggested, you may have to up the revs to take full advantage of them. If you want to maintain current rpm levels, the medium ports will boost torque right in the rpm range that you need and also boost low end grunt to jerk double skiers out of the water. You might find a automotive machine shop that would be willing to trade you a set of completely rebuilt medium port heads for your rect. ports(highly desirable for drag cars).
As far as the exhaust, you need to go full 4". A lower priced alternative in marine exhaust manifolds with individual runner design is the Kodiac brand. I used them on my 406 sbc with 3.5" and did a 468 bbc w/4" for a friend in his boat. I was well pleased with the end result. They are half the price of Gil, Imco and others. The aluminum casting and powdercoating is great, remove a buttload of weight. As far as the classic aluminum logs, I dig um for looks, especially polished, but a log is a log, the individual runner manifolds perform like short tube headers and a log performs like a LOG.
You may need to jet the carb up a bit after the HP manifolds resulting in more top end power. The GM manifold responds well to staggered jetting, the design runs some cylinders a little lean. Gotta read the plugs. Sounds like you got the timing pretty good.
Again the book I referred to is a good read, got mine off the shelf at Books A Million. I have been building hotrod engines for cars for a while and think I've got pretty good insight on do's and dont's, but when I started playing with boats too some years back, I had to start thinking on different terms, for instance, targeting power improvements in a specific rpm range versus just bolting together the biggest power makers you can afford on a car.
More food for thought. Keep us updated regardless of what you decide, I love HotBoats, especially the classics. olnolan
Either increase the revs or increase the cubes, right? I would think that either would help take better advantage of the 990's. I dont want to prop down, but Id be OK turning in the 5500-5800 range- but Id need the hp to get me there (probably 50-80hp since Im turning about 5200 now and it takes 10-15hp to pick up 100 rpm).
Stock compression ratio on the marine 330hp 454 would have been about 8.12:1. The HO version (390/425hp) would have been around 8.6:1. Again, I dont know what Ive got now as who knows what it was rebuilt with. I guess we'll have to pull the heads to find out, right?
Assuming Ive got a pretty tame cam in it now, would I stand to make any gains with a piston (to bump CR to ~9), cam, intake manifold and exhaust change? Again, I dont want to do anything that will hurt holeshot.
Ill look into the Kodiaks, as well as other (used) header options. Ill go with 4" if at all possible... though I REALLY like the look of the logs. Ive seen minimal gains with high $$$ headers on a BBC (330hp, otherwise minimal mods) and a flow test which proved that some ported aluminum logs can outflow ported cast iron center riser manifolds on a Ford, so I had hopes I could make a little bit more power with them (and save some weight at the same time), while adding a cool look for not a lot of money.
Heres a shot of the boat in action, just for fun.
The Weiand Stealth is approximately 1 inch taller than the factory # 3933163.
Hey TRB, I think you're a pretty sharp dude but, maybe you need to do the math on prop changes. Okay, first I agree there is no substitute for cubic inches, the bigger the better. I also agree that more CI will help your rect. port heads act smaller in respect to boosting torque. You need to think in terms of torque in respect to boat engines rather than HP. A boat does not overcome it's mass like something rolling on wheels. Once you get a car moving it takes less torque to keep it moving faster and faster till you run out of gear ratio or HP. A boat on the other hand really never overcomes its mass.
Getting up on plane is just the action of rolling over the barrel of water that forms under the boat when you're trying to get it moving. Once you get the boat on top of the water, the drag is more constant. If you trim up, you get less boat it the water and less drag. Do you have the full size trim plate on the transom, is it fixed, adjustable or what?
As far as more RPM are concerned, it does not do you any good to prop for more RPM if you're decreasing pitch to get there. You did say a smaller prop,
which leads to the math on prop changes. You said you had a 13x14 and a 12.5x15, these are super pulling props w/1:1 drive but if you want more speed you gotta go up in pitch as in 16",17",18" to gain speed. Every inch you go up in pitch is gonna bring the revs down but what you're hunting for is the sweet spot in the torque that can still turn the prop at a speed desired. In your case, you can probably still go up in prop pitch, gain some speed and not give up too much low end pulling grunt.
If you still want to give up some cash and build a stroker motor, cool. But you can likely gain a little speed with a prop change, still pull skiers and only be out of the cost of a new prop.
Examples; 14" @ 5000 w/20% slip=53mph
15" @ same=56.8
16 @ same=60.6
19 @ same=72.0mph
You gotta see what it will spin up to with different props.
example; 19"@4600 w/20% slip=66.2
Food for thought, speaking of that, its supper time, later.olnolan
Just to clear things up, this is a 1:1 fixed inboard, so no trim. No trim plate either. This is actually a pretty decent sized v-hull, and despite the tank-like handling and relatively heavy weight with the big block, seems to be a pretty fast hull. The lifting strakes get a decent amount of boat out of the water. Regardless, theres no adjustment here.
I do disagree with your theories on props- whether that works on the types of boats youre familiar with I have no idea, but it doesnt work on ski boats. In my experience, maximizing top speed is a matching game between the hp curve of the engine and the size of the prop. Whatever size prop allows the engine to turn at or near its hp peak at wide open throttle should maximize top speed- other constants like rake, number of blades, etc held constant.
While the top speeds with the 2 props Ive tried are very similar, the larger pitch (12.5x15) had a significantly worse holeshot. I suspect that propping any larger than this would make the boat unskiable, and would likely hurt top end as well since the maximum RPM's would end up lower than 4900, and everything else is telling me that these heads want to breathe more than that.
Conversely, I could prop down to a smaller pitch (13x12) and pick up RPM at WOT and that would help holeshot. If my cam better matched my heads and allowed the engine to make more power (up to, say, 6500) then I would expect to see an increase in top speed by allowing the engine to turn closer to its hp peak at WOT. I just dont want to turn significantly more RPM's at skiing speeds than we do now (due to increased fuel usage and reliability concerns).
In other words, Ive seen smaller (pitch) props make a boat faster, and larger (pitch) props slow a boat down. There is no set formula on how to make one of these boats faster- its a careful balancing act. Generally speaking, when making engine modifications, sticking with a stock-ish sized prop will give you the best performance when doing top end (breathing) mods that add hp- you just spin that prop more RPM. On the other hand, going up in pitch will improve performance when doing bottom end mods that increase cubic inches (stroker) that increases the engine's torque.
In any case, based on factory settings and numerous other accounts, combined with how we intend to use the boat, I am confident that the props I currently have will be pretty close to what I end up using. I may dial in the cup a bit to tweak WOT RPM's, but for the most part, Im there.
The next step is going to be to determine our cam specs (at least measure the valve lift) and check out the pistons to try to determine what we have for a CR. Unless someone here thinks that we could pick up power by carefully tuning either (or both) of these, then I figure we probably have 2 options. A) go to a 496 stroker and take better advantage of the 990's, or B) Swap out the rectangles for some large ovals. Either will likely be accompanied by an appropriate cam change, possibly a CR change as well. If we choose the latter, maybe Ill hang on to the 990's and start planning a ground up stroker build for the future.

My Bad Dude, You seemed like a "new boat guy" on your first post. I didn't know you had alot of experience. I don't think I can offer you anything that you don't already know or have proven different from what I know. olnolan

My 4y old cat started making strange noises, usually after eating, as you can see in these videos. Usually he throws up a white jelly foam (not food) after a little while, like he is trying to get rid of something.
He had a rough childhood.
He had Coryza and he usually "cries" from one of his eye. I don't know if it can give him a bad taste in his mouth, causing this behavior.
He also had a kidney incident, he then started eating Urinary food and know is on Renal food, but his latest analysis showed everything is ok.
No FIV and FeLV.

Formula 1 tyre supplier Pirelli has asserted its influence on the outcome of races again, with the teams struggling to adjust their strategies to the durability of the varying compounds at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix.
Race winner Kimi Raikkonen of Lotus needed only two pit stops for tyre changes Sunday compared to three stops for their closest rivals, while others struggled with degradation to the supersoft tyres.
Pirelli's motorsport director Paul Hembery said the tyre maker came to Melbourne with the intention of offering the supersofts "in order to spice up the action. We believe that this worked very well, with a variety of different two- and three-stop strategies just as we expected and seven different leaders."

It's been an exciting past few months here, as I'm sure it has been in your communities, and I wanted to share some of the things we've been up to at the National Center for Safe Routes to School.
In September, we participated in a meeting on Capitol Hill hosted by Kevin Jennings, Assistant Deputy Secretary, Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools, U.S. Department of Education, to discuss priorities for the Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools. It's significant that Safe Routes to School programs have risen in priority to be included in the larger discussion of safe and drug-free schools and I was encouraged to be invited to represent the National Center among a select group of organizations.
October kicked off with another record-breaking Walk to School Day on Oct. 7 (see article below ), and the Walk 21 Conference, an international conference on walking in New York City. The conference provided the opportunity to hear from leading professionals about programs, policies and projects that really work around the world. The National Center co-hosted a Walk to School Day event with Livable Streets Education in conjunction with the Walk 21 Conference. Check out this cool two-minute video highlighting the celebration.
The UNC Highway Safety Research Center — home of the National Center — recently hosted a delegation of physicians from Turkmenistan interested in highway safety and walking and bicycling issues. Nancy Pullen-Seufert, associate director for the National Center for Safe Routes to School, spoke to the group about our programs, issues and concerns, and participated in what I understand was a very interesting idea sharing session. And on Mon., Oct. 26, the National Center awarded the 2009 James L. Oberstar Safe Routes to School Award to Washington D.C.'s Ben W. Murch Elementary School .
We are thrilled to be engaging professionals from such diverse backgrounds in the discussion and implementation of Safe Routes to School programs. Together, we can achieve great things.

Streaming giant Netflix has secured the exclusive global rights to new Batman series Gotham for a reported $1.75 million an episode.
Netflix made a significant play to expand its international business with the purchase from Warner Bros - signing a deal to stream the show in all of its international territories, a first for the site.
Netflix, which passed 50 million subscribers earlier this year, is due to launch in Germany, France, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland and Luxembourg this month, adding to its business in Canada, Latin America, the UK, the US, Ireland and Scandinavia.
The Fox TV Batman prequel, created by Warner Bros Worldwide and based on the Batman characters in DC Comics, is due to broadcast on September 22 and will be streamed in all of Netflix's territories by 2015, the Financial Times reported.
Netflix is reportedly paying $2 million per episode to Sony Pictures Television for the first season of ABC's "The Blacklist" as it attempts to hook viewers with online exclusives.
In some countries in which the Los Angeles-based firm operates it does not hold the rights to stream its own originally produced content.
Netflix hopes to win new custom through a combination of both original programming and other studios' content.
Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos said: "The Batman origin story is sure to have massive global appeal so it is fitting that, along with Warner Television, we have created a new model for distributing a show that international and domestic audiences will love."Reuse content

Dr. Ramanand Sagar
Press Release
Hotels & Resorts
SFX Dept
Film City
Fun Zone
'BHARAT' i.e. India is one country in the world which sends the message of 'Peace and Brotherhood' to the world.
India - following the principle of 'Live and let others Live' thus has advanced to the peak of prosperity.
But the enemy countries are jealous of the success and progress made by India and are thus hell bent upon to create instability in the country. The ample proof of such a design is the terrorism prevailing in Kashmir.
ANKHEN is a TV serial of patriotism at its best. It is a serial to combat current burning problems as also fighting against terrorism, mafia drug addiction and cultural invasion. The third generation scions of the Sagar family - Amrit and Shakti Sagar, when they saw their grandfather (Ramanand Sagar's) film Ankhen; they expressed a desire to convert it into a TV serial.
Through Ankhen, they have advocated the view that that there is a need to be perceptive; keep our ears and eyes open in these trying times. There is a need to be alert in this age of terrorism wherein there is a constant threat from insiders. We cannot depend on the military and the police alone.
The idea was to instill in the new generation deep sentiments of nationalism, boldness to fight enemy agents and corruption and preserve our national freedom. There are brave heroes playing with life and death at the toss of a coin.
Mission India is one mission lead by a band of selfless freedom fighters, which keep a vigil on the evil-doers and are ever ready to crush evil at its roots.
Mr. J.K. MALHOTRA is the Governor Designate for Kashmir. Our enemy wants to eliminate him and they enter into a contract with notorious killer CARLOS to kill Mr. J.K. MALHOTRA.
Col. DHYAN CHAND of the GURUKUL - through His secret agents comes to know about the conspiracy and he along with his patriot soldiers pledge to spoil the plot.
The Ankhen team under the leadership of Col.Dhyanchand succeeds in spoiling the evil designs of CARLOS and save the life of Mr. Malhotra. Carlos is infuriated by his failure. He vows to take revenge with the Ankhen team and designs a new conspiracy- to blow up a bomb at the venue of the impending peace conference of the foreign advisors in India. Thereby the reputation of India will be adversely affected and the other countries will look at India with hostility. Thus India will be separated from other countries.
In order to achieve his mission- Carlos asks his counterpart Ms.Monica and Thomson to reach India.
But the secret agents of Ankhen detect the conspiracy and Col.Dhyanchand is alerted of the same and once again team of Ankhen prepares themselves to face the situation and saves the country. Thus the Ankhen team which looks after the safety and security of the country always saves the country from all types of danger at different instances.
Year of telecast:
Ankhen was launched in the year 2001 on DD1 (Doordarshan) where a total of 104 episodes were telecasted.
Direction and casting:
Ankhen made under the banner of "Sagar Entertainment Ltd" was produced by Jyoti Sagar and directed by Amrit Sagar and Shakti Sagar.
Starcast: Arvind Rouseria as Colonel Dhyanchand, Sanjeev Wilson as Carlos, J.P. Sharma as Kangaroo, Sagar Saini as Ankhen team member, Vinod Pandey as Ankhen team member and Sarvender as Ankhen team member.
Ankhen has bagged three awards-
Nagarik Award
2001-2002, for
