Double Dare News Speaker & Event Profiles 3.30pm ZOE BELL (USA/NZ) Zoe Bell has worked as a professional stuntwoman since 1997. Between 1998 and 2001 she worked as a double for Lucy Lawless on the hit television
series Xena. After Xena died, she landed the role of Uma Thurman's stunt double in Quentin Attention’s two-film epic Kill Bill. For her work on Kill Bill Vol.1 she was nominated for 2004 Taurus World Stunt Awards in

Lucy Interviews Update on the transcript of the Lucy interview with Jennifer Pizer, Julie sent me some info that sheds light on what Lucy said in Maori. Many thanks to Julie for that :) "Lucy responded with "Kia ora, Tena tatou katoa," which is used as a formal inclusive greeting to everybody present, including oneself. It sounds as though Lucy may have changed "tatou" to "katou," -- (there is a similar Maori greeting "Tena koutou," -- which means the same thing but is pronounced differently). If anybody is interested in learning more, there is a great website called "100 Maori Words every NZer Should Know," located at the following link: http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/Gallery/tereo/words.htm Clicking on each phrase opens a QuickTime file that gives the proper pronounciation. A nifty little site! 23 July

I'm very pleased to announce the addition of Charis to the wallpaper section. Charis does amazing work and I'm really chuffed she has added her work here.
New Artwork by:
AUSXIP Site Announcement:
I am very pleased to announce the re-opening of the Artwork
section. There are 165 artists listed in the Artwork section - Cindy has redesigned the section and it looks fantastic! Mt Kilimanjaro Trip Anybody out there interested in a group climb of Mt.
Kilimanjaro in Africa? This is not an "official" Xena gig; it's just a couple of fans who thought it would be fun to make the trip with other Xenites. When? July 2006 (That’s 2 years to raise the cash for the trip, lose that extra weight, quit smoking and get in shape!) Where? Book the entire trip from your front door, or meet up with the group in Tanzania for an 8-day hike to Uhuru Peak & back. How? The trek to the summit does not involve technical climbing. It’s a rugged hike and if you’re fit you have a good chance of reaching the top. How much? Man, you ask tough questions! The trip could cost as little as ~$4,000 or as much as $6,000, depending on airfares, add-ons, & inflation. The $6,000 would include a 5-day/4-night camera safari in the Serengeti. Why? Because it’s there! Because ROC did it! Because you can do it! Because it will be the adventure of a lifetime AND you get to share it with other Xenites Are you interested? Take the poll and let us know! 10 July There is an article in the July issue of Lesbian News entitled: "Lucy
Lawless is at Home in the LGBT Community. -- Wow this is exciting news - and congratulations to Patricia Parker and Rebekah Lynn - two VERY talented Xenaverse artists for getting their work recognised by Rittenhouse Archives! Rittenhouse Archives has announced a new card set - Art and Images of Xena: Warrior Princess and to top it off - Renee has done some art and these will be available in the set: The following is from SciFic Hobby site For the first time in a Xena trading card set, Rittenhouse Archives presents collectors with one of the hottest chase cards in today's market. Each box of Art and Images of Xena: Warrior Princess will contain one hand-drawn sketch card! Artists for this series include Warren Martineck, John Czop, Cris Bolson, Sean Pence, Emir Ribeiro, Patrick Hamill, Eduardo Pansica, Joe Corroney, Scott Rosema, Steven Miller, Patricia Parker and Pablo Raimondi. Fans can expect to find their sketches of their favorite characters including Xena, Gabrielle, Joxer, Argo, Ares, Callisto, Aphrodite, Hercules, Borias and others highly detailed in pencil, ink and color! Continuing the theme of art in this series, collectors will find artwork from three different artists. Artists Rebekah Lynn and Patricia Parker, both Xena enthusiasts themselves, have lent their stunning artwork to this series. Their artwork truly captures the danger and passion of the show. Artist Douglas Shuler will be creating nine new pieces of artwork exclusively for this series that when put together form one large image. Probably the most exciting pieces of artwork in this series will be those created by series co-star Renee O'Connor. We all know that Renee can act, but did you know that she can draw as well? Renee has drawn 9 new pieces of artwork of her friends from the show including Lucy Lawless as Xena, Kevin Smith as Ares, Alexandra Tydings as Aphrodite, Ted Raimi as Joxer as well as self-portrait of herself as Gabrielle.

9 July REAF - Help Is On the Way X Benefit News The following is from Crystal about the REAF Benefit Programs I know that there are a lot of you who will not be able to attend the upcoming performance that Lucy will be singing in in San Francisco. When many Lucy fans from

This is what he replied: Honourable Lucy mention in relation to the movie "King Arthur" The movie Double Dare - a documentary about Zoe Bell (Lucy's Xena double) and the stunt double for Wonder woman will be screening between 10 - 15 August at The Michigan Womyn's Musical Festival

I'm quite sure everyone knows Judi from her tireless work in producing episode screengrabs and interview screengrabs since 1998 at Ausxip. She is also a gifted artist and her work will be an absolute delight to have here. Over the coming days, I will be adding Judi's creations to the site.

- It's near where the ticket order info is on the "Help X" event page. --- That was an interesting day yesterday...to allay everyone's fears, Ausxip won't be moving or changing. The following is an FAQ about the merger that answers some questions: 1. Will the colour scheme on Ausxip change 5. When can I start sending in my artwork? Lucy Aussie TV Alert An update to yesterday's TV Alert - Bernie Mac won't be on because of the tennis from Wimbledon. So don't tune in if you want to see Lucy, you won't. You'll see Serena or Venus or Martina instead <g
1 July Major Site Announcement AUSXIP AND FOREVAXENA MERGE I have the great pleasure in announcing a merger between Ausxip (and the Lucy and ROC sites) and Forevaxena which is run by Cindy. Cindy (Forevaxena) and I have come to an agreement where the Forevaxena site will merge into Ausxip. That doesn't mean forevaxena will disappear off the Xenaverse radar, it just means that Cindy will alter the focus of Forevaxena and merge some aspects of Forevaxena into Ausxip. What this also means for Ausxip is that Cindy has volunteered to maintain the artwork section on ausxip. Now what that means for artists is that they can now submit their artwork again. The Xenaverse is chock full of talented people. One of those talented fans is Cindy. Having a dedicated webmaster like Cindy join Mesh, Judi, Ann and the regular contributors at AUSXIP will only benefit the Xenaverse. I have always admired Cindy's work and it's an honour to have her join AUSXIP, The Lucy Lawless Files and The ROC Files. A word from Cindy/ForevaXena:
I am very pleased to announce three new artists to the Wallpaper section - Cindy/Forevaxena, Angie Larson and Deborah Abbott. All three are superb artists and I'm seriously chuffed to have them here.
