The Wonderful World of Disney: A Bug's
Life
 A Bug's Life, another box-office hit by
the producers of Toy Story, tells the
story of Flik (Dave Foley), the smartest
ant in his colony. Flik invents a device
to harvest grain faster so the colony
can build a mountain of food as an
offering to a tyrannical band of
grasshoppers. Unfortunately Flik spills
the offering and Hopper (two-time
Oscar-winner Kevin Spacey), the leader
of the grasshoppers, makes his great
displeasure known — and promises grave
consequences if the offering is not
restored. Flik apologizes to the Queen
(Phyllis Diller) and is encouraged by
Princess Atta (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) and
Mr. Soil (Roddy McDowall), then sets out
on a journey with a plan to hire
mercenaries to defend the colony against
the grasshoppers. Alas, the nine bugs he
hires — believing they are fierce
warriors — are actually discontented
flea-circus performers.

around the fiery boundary of
the Pacific Rim. You'll feel
the heat as the cameras take
you to the birth of a new
volcano in Chile, and relive

the process of the
geological forces that cause
a volcanic eruption or
earthquake. The devastating
results of these forces are
witnessed through the scenes
of the 1989 earthquake that
rocked the city of San
Francisco.

Ring Of Fire (IMAX)
This award winning
film, seen by millions at
IMAX theatres worldwide,
takes you heartstoppingly
close to the great circle of
volcanoes and seismic
activity that rings the
Pacific Ocean. It is the
story of these immense
volcanic forces and the
half-billion people that
coexist with them every day
around the fiery boundary of
the Pacific Rim. You'll feel
the heat as the cameras take
you to the birth of a new
volcano in Chile, and relive
history with rare and
spectacular images of the
infamous 1980 eruption of
Mount St. Helens. You will
march with the inhabitant of
Sakurajima, Japan, as they
participate in their annual
evacuation drill, and
witness one of the frequent
ash eruptions of this very
active volcano. A whirlwind
computer animation sequence
gives you a ride through the
center of the earth to see
the process of the
geological forces that cause
a volcanic eruption or
earthquake. The devastating
results of these forces are
witnessed through the scenes
of the 1989 earthquake that
rocked the city of San
Francisco.

Two shows premiering HDNet Jan 25 and
26 - the second season of the
award-winning comedy series "An American
in Canada," and a special
concert by Chick Corea and friends from
his Grammy-nominated "Rendezvous in New
York" performance.
HDNET PRESENTS
SECOND SEASON OF "AN AMERICAN IN CANADA"
Season Begins Jan. 26 With On-the-Set
Special HDNet
is set to premiere its second season of
"An American in Canada," a
comedy series from the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation. This hilarious
show
featuring Jake Crewe as the television
host of "Wake Up Calgary" returns
to HDNet on Monday nights with 10 new
episodes beginning February 2.
On January 26th HDNet
will air a special original production of
"On the
Set: An American in Canada, Season 2."
This irreverent, tongue-in-cheek show
takes viewers behind the scenes to spend a
day with the characters and
director, following them through
rehearsals and preparing for the taping
of the show.
"An American in Canada" stars Rick Roberts
as Jake Crewe, the acerbic host
of Wake Up Calgary and Helene Joy as Judy,
the producer of the show, who
can't trust a man who can't commit to a
country. This quirky look at
Canadians through the eyes of an American
received overwhelming response
from both the audience and critics when
the pilot aired. It garnered the
Gemini Award (presented by the Academy of
Canadian Cinema & Television)
for best comedy show.
HDNET CONCERT
SERIES PRESENTS "CHICK COREA: RENDEZVOUS
IN NEW YORK," PREMIERING JAN. 25, 9:00 PM
ET
What: HDNet presents "Chick
Corea: Rendezvous in New York," a concert
documentary offering an unprecedented
musical retrospective of
contemporary jazz told from the viewpoint
of legendary pianist Chick Corea, who
reunites nine different bands that he has
led over his illustrious career.
Narrated by Jeff Goldblum and directed by
HDTV pioneer David Niles, the
program features highlights from Chick
Corea's three-week performance from
the famed Blue Note in New York,
interviews with the performers and
exclusive behind-the-scenes footage. Last
fall, HDNet broadcast a
nine-part concert taken from these
performances to the acclaim of many HDTV
viewers
across the country. One viewer gave HDNet
a "big thumbs up" on the
broadcasts, describing them as "incredible
programs in HD" with "excellent
picture and sound." Another said, "It's
really like being there."
The CD/SACD that was produced from these
performances, also entitled
"Rendezvous in New York", has garnered
three Grammy Award nominations,
including Best Instrumental Arrangement
Accompanying Vocalist(s); Best
Jazz Instrumental Album, Individual or
Group; and Best Jazz Instrumental Solo:
Matrix.

When: Premieres Sunday, January 25, 2004
at 9:00 p.m. ET / 6:00 p.m. PT
Check the HDNet programming schedule at
www.hd.net for encore
presentations.
Chick Corea's four decade career is the stuff of jazz lore, an
amalgamation of influential,
limit-stretching musical experiences which
have filled many a page in 20th century
music history encyclopedias. Other
musicians performing with Chick Corea
include Bobby McFerrin, Gary Burton,
Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Miraslav Vitous, Roy
Haynes, Joshua Redman, Terence
Blanchard, Christian McBride, John

Derived
from SkyREPORT
Seems
Mr. Murdoch would like to get his investment
in DirecTV back in and thinks you folks
might be eager to suuport his mission. He
will increase the prices for DirecTV's base
packages between $1 and $3, depending on the
package, beginning March 1. That comes from
the pockets of the people who can least
afford it--pensioners and those on fixed
Social Security allowance--you know, the
people who are most dependant upon
television for some quality of life in our
post agricultural age.
Here
is the way it breaks down: Total Choice with
locals, $39.99 a month, a $1 jump; Total
Choice Plus with locals, $42.99 a month, a
$3 increase; and Total Choice Premier with
locals, $90.99 a month, a $3 jump. Without
locals, package prices are: Total Choice,
$36.99, a $3 jump; Total Choice Plus,
$39.99, a $2 increase; and Total Choice
Premier, $87.99, a $2 increase.
But
there is some good news for better-off HDTV
owners and those using the packages with
foreign language channels, and premium
networks for they will not change, along
with prices for pay-per-view and the DirecTV
DVR service. As for its upcoming national
promotion, DirecTV will offer new customers
its Total Choice with Locals package for
$29.99 for the first six months of a
subscription, a $60 savings. Customers who
purchase new equipment, agree to a one-year
commitment and subscribe between March 1 and
July 17 will be eligible for the offer. The
Spanish-language DirecTV Para Todos package
with locals also will be offered at the
discount.
NBC TO
BROADCAST DAYTONA 500 IN HD
First-Ever HD Coverage of
NASCAR - HDTV Broadcasts To Be Seen on NBC's
DTV Affiliates
NEW YORK - Jan. 22, 2003 - NBC Sports will
broadcast the first-ever high definition
coverage of a NASCAR race when it provides
exclusive live coverage of the 46th running
of the Daytona 500, Sunday Feb. 15, at Noon
ET. In addition to the Daytona 500, NBC
Sports will provide live coverage of the
Hershey's Kisses 300 NASCAR Busch Series
race in high definition on Saturday Feb. 14
at Noon ET. The announcement was made today
by Ken Schanzer, President, NBC Sports.
"NBC's high definition broadcast of the
Daytona 500 will deliver the biggest event
in motorsports and one of the premier events
in sports to NBC affiliate stations' digital
television homes using the world's premier
television technology," said Schanzer.
"NASCAR has long been at the forefront of
broadcast technology and it is only
appropriate that the 'Great American Race' -
the Daytona 500 - be the first auto race
broadcast in High Definition."
NASCAR on NBC &TNT director, Mike Wells,
said: "When I'm sitting at home watching a
show in HD I think about how great NASCAR
will look using this technology. And
there's no better race to get started with
than the Super Bowl of stock car racing -
the Daytona 500."
In 22 years of directing motorsports on
television, Wells, a 17-time Emmy Award
winner, has defined the way auto racing is
seen on television today.
The HDTV broadcast will be produced in 1080i
HD format with Dolby Surround Sound using
the same HD mobile production unit that will
produce the Super Bowl in High Definition
two weeks prior and will feature the audio
and commentators from NBC's standard
production.
NASCAR on NBC and TNT coverage will be led
by play-by-play announcer Allen Bestwick,
analysts Benny Parsons and Wally Dallenbach,
pre-race host and lead pit reporter Bill
Weber and pit reporters Dave Burns, Marty
Snider and Matt Yocum.
NBC currently has 115 digital television
affiliates, reaching approximately 83
percent of U.S. digital television
households.
The
CES and Hawaiian reports are still labors of
love but the administrative tasks here have
led me away from the writing of them. As
soon as it is ready it will come out to you.
It is presently 6:30 am and I am just finish
up yesterday's urgencies. So, you see little
time is left until we staff up, and that is
quite dependant upon our market.
