AUSXIP on hiatus from 05 September 2024 to 12 October 2024
Hi folks.
Yes, the site has been a little quiet since the end of the AUSXIP Charity Auction on September 4, 2024. I have a great reason. I took a 60th birthday (yeay) Eat Pray Love overseas holiday that spanned three different continents for five weeks! Life changing event! I'm now back and regular updates will start again!
The big news from the charity auction is that we raised just over $12,000 - will have a definite total in the new few days.
The other big news...
HURRICANE MILTON!
To all the Xenites in the path of Milton, we are thinking of you and hoping you are safe! This is a monster hurricane (or as Aussies call it, a cyclone).
Milton MAY impact the AUSXIP Server which is housed in Tampa and it may go
down but servers can be rebuilt, losing people to a raging hurricane cannot.
Please take care and know that millions are wishing for the best!

Lucy's directorial debut of a documentary about the legendary Margaret Moth in now in post-production.
NEVER LOOK AWAY
Currently in Post-Production
Director: Lucy Lawless
Producers: Matthew Metcalfe,Tom Blackwell,
Lucy Lawless
Editor: Whetham Allpress
New Zealand born CNN
camerawoman Margaret Moth walks on the razor's edge between sanity and
death. Her first assignment with CNN is to cover the riots that followed
Indira Gandhi's assassination in India.
She goes on to cover
conflicts in Africa, the Middle East and fatally, the Bosnian war. In
vivid, emotional detail, we see what Moth saw and how she in turn
changed what we, the television viewer, saw. A rollicking ride through
sex, drugs and war, NEVER LOOK AWAY is war from a female perspective; as
you have never seen it before.

Well Cyclone Gabrielle has battered New Zealand over the last few days. Unfortunately two people have lost their lives and so many have had major damage to their homes.
Another shocking development was Amber Rhodes (Amber was Renee's double on the show) had her home demolished by Gabrielle.

'Xena: Warrior Princess’ Changed New Zealand's Film Industry
Critics hailed the show for its strong female characters. Over two decades later, fans have maintained a cult following. The show remains so popular that an annual convention still occurs in LA...
Lucy Lawless
This is one of those articles where you instantly go... yeah, right. Not happening. Apparently Lucy's Alexa is going to be her last role as an actress <insert eye roll> Acting is in her blood. She won't give it up and she's BRILLIANT at it.

End scene? Lucy Lawless reveals My Life is Murder role will
likely be her last - NZ Herald 28 August 2022
New Zealand actor Lucy Lawless says her current TV role will likely be her last on our screens. The 54-year-old told Francesca Rudkin on Newstalk ZB's The Sunday Session that she has no acting aspirations beyond playing private investigator Alexa Crowe on My Life is Murder. "I think Alexa may well be my last role. This is it. I love her and I'll keep doing her for a little while ... I don't have a dream of acting out there," she said.
