Telstar 6 launch . . .

The fireworks begins tomorrow night with the launch of Telstar 6 at 12:12am EST (Saturday). That is 10:12am local time in Baikonur. There will be a satellite broadcast of the launch via Telstar 5 and Orion 1, so I assume that Florida Today will provide live reports. I have not yet found any webcast listed, but am keeping my eyes open.
Here is a link to a page on the International Launch Services website that describes the Proton K/Block DM launch vehicle, and a typical launch profile:
