Abc - Abc Setting Up Student Bureaus


In what amounts to a significant expansion of its existing intern program for college
students, ABC News is planning to open actual student-staffed bureaus next fall at
five universities. ABC News President David Westin said in a statement Wednesday
that the bureaus will not only allow aspiring TV journalists to experience actual
on-the-job training but also give the network a greater insight into the behavior
and interests of 18-to-25-year-olds, a demographic group avidly courted by advertisers.
Bureau chiefs at the campus facilities will receive additional training at ABC News
headquarters in New York, the network said. It was not clear whether any of the students
participating in the program will be paid or whether they will only receive college
credits. Schools participating in the project include Arizona State University, Syracuse
University, University of Florida, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and
University of Texas at Austin.

Ryan Condal to adapt 'Ocean'

Based on Warren Ellis' comic book miniseries





Ryan Condal has been hired to adapt "Ocean," a comic miniseries by Warren Ellis that is set up at Warner Bros. Nick Wechsler and Hollywood Gang's Gianni Nunnari are producing.


The story revolves around the discovery of thousands of coffins containing angel-like bodies and a giant weapon of mass destruction beneath the ice on Europa, one of Jupiter's moons. A U.N. weapons inspector is sent to investigate the find, teaming with a space station crew, when a powerful conglomerate moves in to exploit the discovery.


Six issues of the comic book were published in 2005 and 2006, with Wechsler and Nunnari optioning the film rights in August 2007. The two are working on bringing Frank Miller's "Ronin" to the big screen.


Hollywood Gang's Craig J. Flores is executive producing "Ocean."


Condal, a relative newcomer, is known for his spec "Galahad," a revisionist take on the King Arthur legend. He is repped by WMA and Energy Entertainment.

Prince turns to print

Prince the musical auteur is becoming an author. 21 Nights, a photographic essay that offers "a rare glimpse into the life, lyrics, and mystique" of the maker of such hits as 1999 and Purple Rain, will be published worldwide this year, according to Atria Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster. The book, his first, is based on Prince's 21 sold-out concerts in as many nights at London's O2 Arena in 2007."Juxtaposing his duelling worlds of music and solitude, it (21 Nights) will incorporate Prince's evocative poetry and lyrics to new songs and other selections, and 124 full-colour, sumptuous, never-before-published images by celebrated photographer Randee St Nicholas," Atria announced yesterday. 21 Nights will include a CD of after-hours jams, Indigo Nights, unavailable from any other outlet.

One of the major criterion groups in the early development of ambient-house, Space was formed by Orb mainman Dr. Alex Paterson and the KLF's Jimi Cauty. Just subsequently Paterson and Cauty recorded and released the Orb individual "A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld" in late 1989, they began working on an inner-space record album. Though the yoke split early in 1990, Cauty released the recordings later in the year on KLF Communications as the Quad LP.
