"Give The World Your Heart" TV to Debut With Live Webcast, Tuesday, Nov. 24


CHANTILLY, VA -- 11/23/09 -- Internet TV Network TV Worldwide (www.TVWorldwide.com), announced that it has been selected by Give The World Your Heart, Inc. (www.GTWYH.org) to produce and launch Give The World Your Heart TV (www.GTWYH.TV), an Internet TV Channel dedicated to the community of people interested in participating in positive, healthy activities to help themselves and others improve the planet and tally their heartbeats while doing so. The channel will launch with a live webcast featuring a panel of Give The World Your Heart advisors and experts at 12 PM Noon ET on Tuesday, November 24, 2009. Participants can view the webcast, register heartbeats and participate in the event interactively at www.GTWYH.TV.

Give The World Your Heart TV viewers will enjoy positive motivational programming, live webcasts, music video, documentaries and shows from participants from all over the globe, that encourage viewers to send their heartbeats in an effort to grow a new health heartbeat counting measurement called Total Gratitude Heartbeat Counter.

"The mission of Give The World Your Heart is to offer you and others, from all over the world, an opportunity and a means of connection by all the positive things that you and others do each day," stated Sandy Masin, Founder of Give The World Your Heart, a 501(c)(3) non-profit company. "This creates a positive, self satisfying atmosphere. All you really have to do is very simple. Just take a little time, get involved, record your heartbeats into the counter and enjoy what you did that day."

"I see counting total gratitude heartbeats as a way to maintain the trust of a Patient-Healthcare Provider covenant," remarked Dr. Bobby Garfinkel, a member of the Give The World Your Hearts Health Advisory Board. "When we work together giving our heart-felt intentions for a better outcome, then this level of trust may be just enough to see remarkable outcomes."

"The process is all inclusive as everyone counts, no barriers of race, religion, culture, gender, age, socioeconomic status, handicaps etc.," Masin added. "Everyone can contribute in some way and when they contribute they are changing the focus of the world. We are also offering the opportunity for charities, faith-based groups, clubs and businesses to develop their own heartbeat counter, which could be hosted on the organization's web site, encouraging everyone to add their heartbeats while giving stakeholders even more reason to become engaged interactively, and adding the group's heartbeats to the GTWYH world counter on a regular basis."

"This is certainly a departure from the professional industry content we feature on many of our Internet TV channels," commented Dave Gardy, Chairman and CEO of TV Worldwide. "But the community-building and interactive social media principles are the same as they would be for any Internet TV channel special interest group. It is always a pleasure to work with people that have an interest in making the world a better place, like the content and heartbeat contributors to Give The World Your Heart TV."

"For 35 years, KISS has rocked all over the world to sold-out crowds and set the standard for what a rock show should be. This tour will solidify our place in history for having the loudest, most entertaining and hardest rockin' show in all of music," said Gene Simmons.

Users who own an Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft can click the Guitar Hero banner at the bottom of the screen and go directly to Xbox LIVE Marketplace on Xbox.com to purchase the KISS three-song track pack and queue it up for download to their Xbox 360 console.

TV to provide HD webcast of Hurley US Open of Surfing

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 22 July, 2009 : - - Los Angeles, Ca -- FueL TV, the only network dedicated to the lifestyle of action sports, is proud to offer the first true HD webcast of a surf contest with the 2009 Hurley U.S. Open of Surfing.

On Saturday, July 25 and Sunday, July 26, internet viewers will be able to watch the HD webcast of the final rounds of the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) World Qualifying Series (WQS) 6-Star Hurley U.S. Open of Surfing, as well as, women’s Hurley U.S. Open of Surfing, the Nike 6.0 Junior finals, the Corona Nose Riding Invitational final, WPS All-Star Tow-in expressions session, and Life Rolls On 'They Will Surf Again' session live on FUEL TV’s website at fuel.tv/usopenofsurfing

“FUEL TV is excited to be webcasting this year’s Hurley U.S. Open of Surfing exclusively in true HD quality,” says Gene Pao, FUEL TV’s Vice President of New Media and International Development. “All production will be done in HD, and the webcast stream will be delivered at 2.4mbps using Move Networks technology. FUEL TV is honored to partner with Hurley and IMG to present the U.S. Open to the world using the highest quality live-event production and video delivery technologies available on the internet today.”

“The U.S. Open of Surfing is elevated to a new level this year both on the beach and online,” says Pat O'Connell, Hurley's VP of Sports Marketing. “We're excited to be partnering with FUEL TV and we're looking forward to seeing the webcast in HD.”

On its 50th anniversary, the Hurley U.S. Open is offering the first-place finisher a record $100,000, the biggest first-place price in professional surfing’s history. The historic event will run from July 20-26, 2009, at the famed Huntington Beach pier. The magnitude of this event has attracted the world’s best surfers from the prestigious ASP World Tour as well as top seeded surfers from the ASP WQS who are looking to gain valuable qualification points in their campaigns for a World Tour berth in 2010.

The epic field of world class competitors is headlined by nine-time world champion Kelly Slater; former world champions Andy Irons, Mick Fanning, C.J. Hobgood and Sunny Garcia; and three-time U.S. Open champion Rob Machado.

The event will also showcase the Women’s WQS, the Nike 6.0 Junior Pro, and the Corona Nose Riding Invitational longboard contests. On Saturday, the HD webcast will kick off with the Hurley U.S. Open men’s round of 16, followed by the Hurley U.S. Open women’s semifinals, WPS All-Star Tow-in Expression Session, Nike 6.0 Junior semifinals, Hurley Pro Wildcard trials, Nike 6.0 Junior women’s final, Corona Nose Riding Invitational semifinals, and finally, the Hurley U.S. Open women’s final.

On Sunday, the HD webcast will begin with the Hurley U.S. Open men’s quarterfinals followed by the semifinals. There will be a break before the final when the Corona Nose Riding Invitational final will take place, along with the Nike 6.0 Junior men’s semifinals, WPS All-Star Tow-in Expression Session, Life Rolls On “They Will Surf Again” session and concluding with the Hurley U.S. Open men’s final.

FUEL TV has successfully executed several live HD quality webcasts this spring and summer—most recently the 6.0 Lowers Pro surf contest and the Maloof Money Cup skateboard contest. In addition, FUEL TV produced the first full HD webcast of a skate contest, the Tampa Pro, in March. In all cases, FUEL TV has utilized video technology from Move Networks that provides video delivery rates more than three times the encoding rate of traditional technologies.

FUEL TV also offers a limited selection of full-length episodes of its programming in HD streaming on its web site. Viewers can watch HD versions of shows such as “New Pollution” and “Firsthand” using the same HD player as is used for the 2009 Hurley U.S. Open of Surfing webcast. FUEL TV will offer “heats on demand” immediately following the live webcast.
