Just for the record, and if this is successful, it will be the (according to my records):
57th orbital launch in 2007...
20th russian orbital launch in 2007...
2792nd russian orbital launch...
1196th orbital launch from GIK-5 Baikonur...
15th orbital launch from GIK-5 Baikonur in 2007

This would be the 60th orbital launch attempt in 2007, and the 16th orbital attempt from Baikonur. It would be the 22nd orbital attempt from Russia or Kazakhstan, and the 23rd orbital attempt made by launch vehicles made in the CIS, year to date. One Proton and one Zenit 3SL have suffered launch failures this year to date. One successful Zenit 2M launch was performed from Baikonur.
The U.S. has 16 orbital attempts with one outright failure to orbit and one launch vehicle that orbited, but failed to reach the prescribed orbit.
China has 10 orbital launches with no failures.
Europe has performed five launches with no failures.

It is interesting how at the start of the year lots of people was saying that China was going to overtake Russia this year in terms of orbital launches, and yet Russia has made twice as many launches as China so far this year.

Looks like it's going to be starting 5 minutes late. The clock on the test card says 16 mins, and it's 22:04 now.
