Concerts 2008!
The following is from Creation Entertainment:
There is no better Holiday present for
our fellow Xena fans....
It is the announcement that our
favorite superstar LUCY LAWLESS is finally making her
premiere convention appearance in The United Kingdom.
The Official XENA CONVENTION comes to beautiful
London at the upscale Hilton Metropole Hotel on May 2-4,
2008 and we're rolling out the red carpet to welcome
Lucy and a cast of guest celebrities we know you'll love
meeting. Click here to read more
For well over a decade American fans
have treasured the memories made at The Official Xena
Conventions. Xena: Warrior Princess was the show that
changed television forever, but equally important, it
created an international family of fans that have kept
the feeling of the show alive through message boards,
fan fiction and blogs, websites, charity drives and of
course, conventions. We've grown to love the series
stars and production people behind the show's success,
and we're very pleased to be bringing The Official Xena
Convention to Great Britain for the very first time.
It is a pleasure to announce that
superstar Lucy Lawless, television's iconic Xena:
Warrior Princess, will not only be headlining the
convention but she is also bringing her acclaimed
musical concert performances to a London nightclub on
Saturday and Sunday nights of the convention weekend.

Adrienne's Charity Auction Update
"Hey all,
Whew...what a year. Ebay has given us SO MUCH trouble
this year - culminating today when they deleted our
entire auction and all the current bids with it!! They
claim they were erring on the side of caution and
deleting all charity auctions because of a few scammers
out there. I admire their ideals...but we have a great
cause that still needs help!
Anyway, We hope to have a strong final push in the 2-5
days as we have many lovely things left. We HOPE to have
everything back up within 24 hours. The descriptions
will no longer say anything about benefiting a
cause..but yes, all proceeds still go to help a family
in need....we just can't put that in our listing.
Three items I would like to highlight - because we have
multiples.... (btw, any we have left over will also be
available after the auction on the adriennewilkinson.com
merchandise page).
-set of 4 character photo's (Adrienne in Xena, Charmed,
Angel and Star Wars)
--photo packets: set of at least 15 headshots and
publicity photos
--press packets Professional press kit for Adrienne
Wilkinson that
contains more than 30 pieces including interviews,
photo's and more.
We also have props from REFLECTIONS as well as items
from CSI and Ugly Betty. We have some jewelry, house
wares, scripts, photos, wardrobe and a few other items.
I would say we have about 80 items left...and we'd love
to find a home for all of it. All remaining items are on
short 3 day auctions, so we can ship it all this week!
Thank you for your help as we give the auction one last
big push in hopes of
finding a home for everything.
-Adrienne"

AUSXIP's 11th Birthday...
Well well well it's another year gone and AUSXIP is
celebrating it's 11th Birthday! Gosh that year has flown
by. Usually around this time we have a charity auction
(actually since I started this new trend last year, I
figured it will continue). Unfortunately this year, for
various reasons, the auction will be held over until
after I get back from my North American trip. Hopefully
we can have it up and running some time mid February. So
save those pennies :)
It's been quite a year - personally and for the site. In
addition to my very loyal sidekicks, Mesh, Roger and my
newest sidekick Christa, I would also like to thank the
regular contributors LB, MET, Pat, Julie H, Barbara
Davies, Barbie and the many others who regularly scanned
pics, sent in news items, fanfic and contribrituted in
various ways to this site. Thank you to all.
Many many thanks to those who have / are contributing to
the Xenaverse Refreshes campaign for the WGA strikers.
It's been very much appreciated by those involved. The
Xenaverse has once again been active and that is always
a great thing to behold.
This year also saw new subsites/sites added to AUSXIP:
AUSXIP was once again affiliated with
Talking
Xena and TX becoming the official AUSXIP message
board. Wonderfully run by EZ Ryder and her many sidekick
mods - I was very happy to join in happy matrimony once
again.
The banners changed (again), the site design/s
changed (again but it wasn't Mesh this time), some
things were changed back, others changed forever. What's
been constant is the support this site has received and
I'm stoked.
What's coming in the next year? Don't know.
This site is a work in progress and so I have no clue
what I'm going to be doing other than to say, it will be
more of the same: keeping you updated with the latest
news, articles, video and anything else that comes up.
Thanks for continuing to visit and contribute. I've
said it often enough but I will say it again...AUSXIP is
what it is because of the contributions of the many
xenites who have helped shaped it into the site it is
today.
If you are new visitor to AUSXIP and want to know why
this behemoth of a site was born, check out the
AUSXIP
History page (if I repeated it again I think I would
bore everyone to tears so go and read the history page).
This was going to be a short note and not an
epic...Thank you muchly!
Roll on Year 12.

writers and producers would soon sign a new pact all

Kevin Smith's Ares Costume for Auction
I posted the following back in October from Barbie
(Xena Prop House) and since we are fast approaching the
2008 Burbank Convention, it was best to repost the note
with pictures of Kevin's costume:
IMPORTANT COSTUME NEWS
Click here to view the scans of the full costume
We all fondly remember Kevin Smith, a talented and
much loved actor on Hercules: The Legendary Journeys,
Xena: Warrior Princess, and Young Hercules. His friends
and fans all over the world have never forgotten him.
On the contrary, since his tragic passing, money has
been donated or raised over the years for the Kevin
Smith Trust for his three sons. However, his wife Sue
would like to mark his 45th birthday next year in a
special way by erecting a wonderful memorial stone.
To facilitate this, Lucy Lawless has agreed to auction
off Kevin's complete costume, worn on many late episodes
of Xena and Hercules, at the Creation XenaCon in
Burbank, California. This Con runs from January 25-27,
2008. (See
www.creationent.com ).
Kevin's spectacular leather costume will be
provided by Sue Smith with her signed letter of
authenticity. This truly is a once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity to acquire one of the finest Hercules/Xena
series costumes ever and it will go to a special cause
to further honour Kevin's memory for many years to
come. More information will follow but please do
NOT contact Creation about the costume. They currently
have no additional information. So stay tuned.

- Lucy's Chicago concert DVD is on sale over on
the Creation site -- with free shipping through
December 12! Couldn't resist showing you the menus
for the DVD created by our editor Warner Young using
photos taken by Chris Schmelke and Lida Verner. And
I had a great time working on the bonus footage.
Especially the first day of rehearsal with just
Lucy, Joe LoDuca, Jason and the backup singers. So
intimate, so mellow, so smooth, so uninhibited. It's
a great peek behind the scenes.
See the
menus on Lucy's home page

Xena show/Lucy mention in writer's interview
-
FastForward Radio
This week Phil Bowermaster and Stephen Gordon had a
chance to visit with PJ Manney. PJ has written for
television - Xena and Hercules - and she's a
novelist.
PJ is also a very active futurist. She's on the
board of directors for the World Transhumanist
Association, she's a senior associate at the
Foresight Nanotech Institute, and she is on the
scientific advisory board for the Lifeboat
Foundation.
Lastly, we got a great story about PJ's Xena
episode, "Is There a Doctor in the House?" PJ was
too modest to mention it, but this episode is both a
fan favorite and the favorite episode of Lucy
Lawless.
many thanks to Barbara Davies for the news

WGA Strike Update
The following is from Katherine (and posted on Talking
Xena)
hey all and sundry --
yet ANOTHER generous drop came to the disney gate today
from the xenaverse. have tell you - it's so humbling and
inspiring. the mostly male WGA writers always walk up to
me with shock on their faces when i arrive, saying,
"they did it AGAIN!" and i smile, realizing, then say,
"you don't know the power of the xenaverse."
your gift was especially appreciated today as i'm sure
many of you have read, the AMPTP's "groundbreaking" deal
was anything but. the lowball offer -($250 flat fee
residual after 6 weeks FREE downloading for an 1 hour
show and ZERO for feature films) has only served to
unite us even more in our fight to receive a fair deal
from the major corporations.
if you have any questions about the strike - please
visit
my website or
www.unitedhollywood.com.
and thank you again for understanding and supporting
writers! (and also actors, because SAG will be next and
we're hoping that with union solidarity and by
bargaining first, we can assure them a fair deal equal
to ours.)

Lucy Auction - 2 Day Auction
  Lucy
has donated her chaps and her pink go-go outfit to the
The B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga Association of Southern
California (IYASC). Both items are now on ebay and you
also get two autographed pics of Lucy wearing the two
outfits.
The B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga Association of Southern
California (IYASC) a not-for-profit organization, is
dedicated to the study, teaching and dissemination of
the teachings of Yoga according to B.K.S. Iyengar.
IYASC, owns and operates the Iyengar Yoga Institute of
Los Angeles.
Back in July 2007 Lucy mentioned that the Association
was losing their lease in their LA location and they
were going to fundraise to be able to move to a new
location.
Part of Lucy's blog post on 20 July 2007:
I have gotten word
that the Iyengar Institute is losing its lease at their
LA location and they are madly fundraising to get a new
home. B.K.S. Iyengar is one of the greatest teachers of
yoga living today (and some would say ever!). Iyengar
yoga has been my salvation after years of poor posture
and a fractured pelvis that I feel could not have been
fully rehabilitated without Mr. Iyengar's teachings. I
am going to put up a couple of my costumes for a silent
auction. What do you think if I auction off my chaps
and my silver space suit?
