The Unveiling of the Bahati Foundation Pro Cycling Team
At the
end of the 19th century, African-American cyclist Marshall "Major"
Taylor seized the sport's attention based on a ‘perfect storm' of
circumstances- the public's thirst for speed, the era's unrelenting passion for
competition, and Major's desire to push his mental and physical boundaries.
Over 110 years later, Rahsaan Bahati is not only following
in Taylor 's
footsteps, but forging a path of his own towards cycling excellence. For
Bahati, his skin color is an avenue and opportunity to affect social change.
The unveiling of the Bahati Foundation Pro Cycling Team in
downtown Los Angeles
last Friday night was a culmination of months of hard work by countless people.
For Bahati, it was the realization of a dream he's had since attending Crenshaw High School a decade ago. It was there
that his two loves- music and riding- set him on a path towards greatness.
"I just had a vision that one day I could show up with
a U-Haul truck full of instruments and surprise all the kids...we're almost
there...that's one of the first things I want to do with the money donated here
tonight,"a visibly moved Bahati said to the packed house at Club Nokia.
The crowd itself
was a unique mix of the cycling industry, local Southern
California riders, and friends and family who have followed
Rahsaan's storied career.
Aside from meeting the team in its entirety for the first
time, the night was meant to be a celebration, and a call to action, for what
sets this team apart- GIVING BACK.
The Bahati Foundation, by definition, supports youth in
inner city and under-served communities through the sport of cycling, education
and music. Simply put, it helps young kids transcend their circumstances for a
better life. Their purpose can be distilled even further to three words:
Charity, Responsibility, and Action.
"It's an easy message, it's all about giving back. That
came from Rahsaan on Day One," commented Steve Owens, the team's General
Manager.
On top of the team's powerful social motivation, their
racing resumés prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that this team will be a force
to be reckoned with every time they toe the line.
"It was Rahsaan who said it, but it's really exciting
to have a team just like this, we're so extremely strong. It reminds me of the
days of SATURN- which was the most dominant team in the United States for some time,"
Owens added.
The roster is full of national and
international experience, Olympians, National Champions, and GC winners. For 8x
Australian National Champion Nathan O'Neill, who was a fixture on the US racing
circuit for years, the team offers another motivating force: a second chance.
Having served a two-year
suspension for doping after testing positive for the appetite suppressant
phenteramine at the Tour of Elk Grove in August 2007, O'Neill is as excited to
race again as a 10-year old with his first two-wheeler.
"The vibe amongst the
riders is incredible...we're all on the same page...now that we're doing this
for kids, and me being a parent, I realize that there is no job in the world
more important than raising another human being, and it doesn't matter if
they're my kids or someone else's kids, they are all important."
O'Neill's teammate, Floyd Landis, was
all smiles at Friday night's launch. Though negotiations to join Bahati's team
had been ongoing, even as little as one week ago, it looked like the former
winner of the Tour of Georgia, Tour of California, and Paris-Nice, might not
have a squad to ride for during the upcoming season. Officially announced as
joining the team this past Wednesday, the joy on his face was evident as he
talked about racing and the message of the Foundation. Floyd spent 2009
re-acquainting himself with the peloton, and those that know him well have said
he is eager for the 2010 season to commence and to deliver results.For Floyd and the rest of the team, the canvas on which to paint their 2010 masterpiece would be the Amgen Tour of
For bike-racing fans, this is one of the top teams to watch in the coming months. They will not be afraid to animate races, and ultimately, expect to win. Aside from each rider's personal goals, the mission Bahati has given them should prove to be equally empowering.
Win or lose on the road, the Bahati Foundation Pro Cycling Team is about nurturing that essential link and connection between us all, and that's the essence of giving back, as well as the key to winning on the road of life.

Kamal Haasan
The 55 year old Kamal Haasan also added: “I’m looking
forward to the next 10 years which I hope will be the best years of my career.”
It proves beyond doubt that there is nobody who is more passionate about cinema
than the master himself.
Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni
said: “A retrospective gives people an opportunity to view works of art on a
vast spectrum. It is a visual treat for movie buffs. It is important to view
classics, as they make a tremendous impact on society. We have cinematic
diversity in our country. Our brand entity is not only because of Bollywood,
but also because of the creative genius of all languages.”
The minister also said: “This is an acknowledgement of your
contribution for the past 50 years. After his debut in Kalathur Kannamma in
1959, Kamal has been honoured with several awards. In fact, he may be the most
awarded person in the country.”

Shakira
Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll (born February 2, 1977), known
professionally as Shakira (pronounced , Spanish., or [ʃaˈkiɾa]),
is a Colombian singer, songwriter, musician, record producer, dancer, and
philanthropist who emerged as a musical prodigy in the music scene of Latin America in the early 1990s. Born and raised in Barranquilla , Colombia , Shakira revealed many of
her talents in school as a live performer, demonstrating her vocal ability with
rock and roll, Latin and Middle Eastern influences with her own original twist
on belly dancing. Shakira is a native Spanish speaker and also speaks fluent
English and Portuguese.
After commercial flops with local producers on her first two
albums, and little-known outside Colombia , Shakira decided to
produce her own brand of music. In 1995 she released Pies Descalzos, which
brought her great fame in Latin America and Spain , and her 1998 album ¿Dónde
Están los Ladrones? was a critical success. Since then she has gained many fans
in semi-Hispanophone countries, and many non-Spanish-speaking countries,
especially the United States .
In 2001, and aided by heavy rotation of the music video, "Whenever,
Wherever", she broke through into the English-speaking world with the
release of Laundry Service, which sold over 13 million copies worldwide.[6][7]
Four years later, Shakira released two album projects called Fijación Oral Vol.
1 and Oral Fixation Vol. 2. Both reinforced her success, particularly with the
most successful song in the 21st century to date, "Hips Don't Lie".From
October-November 2009 Shakira released her latest album She Wolf worldwide.
She has won two Grammy Awards, seven Latin Grammy Awards,
twelve Billboard Latin Music Awards and has been Golden Globe-nominated. She is
also the highest-selling Colombian artist of all time, and the second most
successful female Latin singer having sold over 50 million albums worldwide.
Additionally, she is the only artist from South America
to reach the number-one spot on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100, the Australian ARIA
chart, and the UK Singles Chart. Shakira is to be given a star on the Hollywood
Walk of Fame.
Shakira's latest success story is the superhit "Waka
Waka (This Time for Africa )", the
official song for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, along with its Spanish language
version, titled "Waka Waka (Esto es África)". The song has received
generally positive critical reception, and has become a worldwide hit
