Latest on the Movie
Rumour from Sharon Delaney / LLFC - "Bull****" I won't spell it out
in case Net Nanny is filtering :-)
Fancy a company
trying to spread a rumour about the Xena movie to sell more
merchandise. I'm shocked. Absolutely shocked <vbg> I have a really
big big big bridge to sell these people, hardly ever used, okay
maybe occasionally on Sundays.
It seems
that the Official Xena and Herc Catalog site think there is going to
be a Xena Movie around Autumn in 2006.
Apparently the official catalog is telling people there's going to
be a Xena movie released in Fall 2006. They're apparently
discontinuing the Xena (and Highlander) swords because (and I quote,
"coming out movies for Highlander and Xena..."
There is a video of Lucy's make-up session with Darrell Redleaf.
Darrell is doing Lucy's make-up for an audition - she's auditioning
for a part as a cop with a little bit of a kleptomania problem <g>

(With permission)
Atlanta and DragonCon folks will remember Charis, the little
feminist/lesbian bookstore here in Atlanta. Like every other
small seller, they are reeling under the dual whammy of online
ordering and a Border's that opened about six months ago less
than a mile away. They are a precious and irreplaceable resource
to the reading community, and they need help. Below, see their
web address. They will be delighted to take orders online or by
phone and ship any book published--and they especially have many
of our Bards in stock in the store. Please, if you are looking
for SnQ or Missy Good or Linda Crist or Radclyffe or Cate
Swannell or Nene Adams or Mary D, to name a few, consider
ordering from Charis instead of Amazon. Local folks, they have
some gorgeous jewelry, too! They are one of the very, very few
remaining booksellers that cater especially to the Women's
community, and they are very socially active too, sponsoring
young writers, etc. They deserve some payback, I think. Anyhow,
please read. I just did a whole lot of Christmas shopping there!

In the NZ and Australian version, it will be the February

She's not entirely sure about these dates, but that's the latest she
was told. It may also show up in other countries, but we're not
sure about that. So check the newsstands.
Also, it's not set yet whether she'll be on the cover, so you won't
be able to use that as a judge when hunting it down.

A Role for Lucy?
-
Oscar winner Charlize Theron (Aeon Flux) has
turned down the female role in the new James Bond movie,
Casino Royale, opposite new 007 Daniel Craig (Munich),
the British tabloid Sun newspaper reported.
Theron is only the latest big-name actress to decline
the role of Bond girl Vesper Lynd, following Angelina
Jolie and Scarlett Johansson, the paper reported.
Producers have just a month to find an actress to star
in the movie, based on Ian Fleming's classic Bond novel,
before filming is set to commence.

Renee is auctioning off her Xena...
This
was the first oil painting i made of "xena", which went through
several transformations before it became the portrait you see now. I
started it late in 2004, and i finished it in the beginning of 2005.
It became a t-shirt to mark the 10th anniversary of the start of the
xena series. "she" is close to me and i have enjoyed her in my home,
but now it is time for her to move in with someone else! The
dimensions, including the frame, are 17.5inches in width by 21.5
inches in length. The photograph of her here does not really show
her vibrant colors, nor her texture because of the file capacity.
Roc productions will maintain the copyright for further photographic
prints. I hope whomever gets her, enjoys it! Thanks, renee

Hey
Convention Virgins!
During the last couple of years many Con Virgins have asked me many
questions about conventions and I thought it would be a nice idea to
do a little workshop at a con for the first-timers and people who
won't know anybody there!
So....at the upcoming Xena convention my team and I will be happy to
answer any questions you might have! Don't be shy and join us on
Friday, Jan 13 2006 at 10am in the lobby of the Hilton!
All you have to do is....show up!
If you want you can jot down questions and bring them to the con or
you can email them to me at
corxy@gmx.net and my team and I will do our best to answer them
during the workshop! And also if any questions will pop up during
the con, you're always welcome to ask us!
I'm not a Convention Guru or anything but I like passing on the many
experiences I've made and I like to see the happy and excited faces
of newbies!
It's going to be a lot of fun! I've made the experience that some
Con Virgins are too shy to mingle and walk up to people and just ask
about what's going on and I thought it would be nice for Con Virgins
to know that there'll be someone who'll answer their questions!
My team and I are looking forward to seeing you there! :o)

There seems to be a bit of confusion as to which
episodes Lucy will be appearing in for the second part of Season
2. Sharon Delaney has checked with Ausiello from TV Guide about
his post that Lucy's episodes will be on the 17th and 24th
February and hopefully will have a definitive answer at some
point. The reason for this confusion is because Ron Moore, Exec
Producer, felt it wasn't the right time for this type of episode
dealing with the Cylon POV.

Mes
sage from Taipo:
Hello, All!
I finally got a message on my machine from the intrepid Aileen! I'd
been trying to reach her with no luck, but she's just fine. She
ended up driving to New Orleans alone. She was on her way back this
morning, and reported that things went well, and she had a good talk
with Lily. I'm sure we'll hear more.
Anyway, they still desperately need toys for boys. They are
distributing them through the schools Lily and her helpers are
supporting, and there are still two more schools to go. Also,
they'd love to get school supplies to put into some backpacks that
were donated. Those, too, are desperately needed.

especially thought the following was just so beautifully
written:
"This holiday season we could forgo the latest gizmo and pledge a gift to a stranger in our community, or in New Orleans or even overseas. Every time we do this we add a thread to the fabric of care that binds all beings on this planet far more securely than all the political manoeuvring in the world. Let us be Conscious."

is mentioned:
"Practically every show has a Christmas episode," Werts said by

don't have a Christmas episode. I couldn't find one for 'Hogan's
Heroes,' but there's even a 'Xena' Christmas episode.

The following is from
Josh Becker's site
about the movie he had written which was to involve Lucy, Renee, Ted
Raimi and Bruce Campbell:
Regarding "The
Horribleness," we're still waiting for the contracts to be signed,
or not. The possible deal I had for "It's a Lost, Lost World" ("Lost
in Dino World" was Lucy Lawless's title) has fallen through, so I'm
working on others. "The Cascade Effect" is undoubtedly collecting
dust at Sci Fi Channel.

A Friend In Need
Campaign Update
The following message is from
Taipo:
Hello, All,
As some of you may have seen from a previous post, one of our
number, Aileen, will be taking a load of toys and books to Miss Lily
in New Orleans. She will be driving it herself, most likely, from
Laughlin, Nevada around the 12th or 13th, hoping to arrive on the
15th in New Orleans. If she is using a rental vehicle, she hopes to
leave it in N.O. and fly back; if not, she'll have to drive back.
Here's the scoop- she'd like someone to go along and be her
co-pilot/navigator person. Obviously, it will have to be someone who
is located close by, can take the time off work, and can afford a
plane ticket if necessary. That lets out a lot of folks one way or
another, but perhaps one of you out there can do it.
Please let me know if you are able to help, and I'll contact Aileen,
who's busily trying to get a truck for this venture. She feels very
strongly about getting these toys to Miss Lily for the kids'
Christmas. Let's see what we can do to help her! Kick in your
thinking caps, check your connections, and let the Greater Good know
we're out here and working for it!!
Thanks, gang!------------Taipo

January/February 1997 The warrior women known to ancient Greek
authors as Amazons were long thought to be creatures of myth.
Now 50 ancient burial mounds near the town of Pokrovka, Russia,
near the Kazakhstan border, have yielded skeletons of women
buried with weapons, suggesting the Greek tales may have had
some basis in fact.

Factory). If you would like to send toys, books and other
goodies to help out - send them to:
Lily Duke
c/o Mardi Gras World
233 Newton St.
New Orleans, LA 70114
Ms Duke has requested: Please do not send money.
If you may include a note saying that this is being done in the
name of Lucy Lawless or Xena if you wish.
As we all know we can be quite a formidable group when we put
our minds to it.
Lucy At The Factory
Aileen
sent me some great Lucy footage from The Factory. There is a
full version of Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves and Down On
Your Knees. Also there are two audio files of the the two songs
in mp3 format. CindyT's video was dead center while Aileen's
video is to the left and you get a different view.
Most of you would have seen the ads for Mastercard with their
'priceless' moments using a mastercard. Well Aileen developed
one herself just for this event - she was the thoughtful fan who
gave Lucy her flowers at the end of Down On Your Knees.

She mentioned for any folks wanting to send toys that the boys
are getting short shrift. Seems everyone sends girl toys, but
forgets the young gentlemen! They're in need of things like
sports items -- baseballs, baseball gloves, soccer balls,
basketballs and the other items associated with those sports.
And for the younger boys, Tonka trucks and other small boy toys.
No weapon toys, please.
