WSJ Publications Library: "DiResta (7:30 p.m.). John DiResta is a stand-up comic, but he once was a New York City transit cop - and that's the role he hopes will make him a TV star. This show's a spin on the funny one-man show DiResta did onstage in New York, presenting his experiences on Manhattan's subway and homeless beat. Anthony Gentile and his wife Donna Daley of Abrams Gentile Entertainment , the producers of Saturday morning TV shows and the toys that spawned them (Sky Dancers and Dragon Flyz) saw DiResta in a comedy club when he was still on the police force. They thought he had the makings of a new Jackie Gleason. Their company put up the money for an off-Broadway show, to give him a showcase and publicity push. Within three months, major studios were bidding for the TV rights, and Disney/Touchtone bought them. When UPN's Dean Valentine left Touchstone to head up this network, he took the project with him. AGE is producing it for UPN, with Matt Goldman as executive producer. DiResta's an appealing character, and there's a lot of his off- Broadway show's in this sitcom. But the best part is when DiResta's playing the overworked, frustrated family man with TV wife Leila Kenzle (Mad About You) and two very cute kids. "

Hi Micky; Here is something on that Power Glove: Here is an excerpt from Computer Gaming World from 9/1/98: Get a Grip The good people at Abrams - Gentile Entertainment who brought you the Nintendo Power Glove are bringing an updated, higher resolution version of the Power Glove to the PC. In fact, they will be doing right-handed and left-handed versions. Imagine being able to make gestures with your hands to cast a spell in a fantasy role-playing game. Or being able to "manipulate" objects in a game with your fingers. Unfortunately, prototypes weren't ready by E3, so I have no idea what it will look like or how well it will work, but it's certainly another step in the slow march toward virtual reality. SIS
