Discuss Renee's visit on AUSXIP Talking Xena - ROC Chat

Hi folks,

I have to say I am beyond stoked about this figure - I'm thrilled to tiny little bits that in this economic tough time, people have been so generous with their time, their money and their willingness to give for the greater good.

I've just received the final figure from Starship together with the ROC Outreach Fund and Adrienne's charity.

The figure comes to $18,165.24

Last year we raised $16,173.86 which is an increase of $1992!

I want to take the time to thank my two sidekicks - Roger and Christa for their hard work in shipping everything out and the support they have given me throughout the auction. I'm so proud of them and also proud of this fandom. Thank you also goes to those who came up to me at the last convention or emailed and gave me items or offered their help and in particular Julie Eaton, Kim Manrique, Mesh & Bev,  KG MacGregor, Val Foster, Barbara Bruno, Marilyn Edwards, Tiger and Tracy. Hopefully I haven't forgotten anyone. You guys rock.

I also want to take the time to thank our Xena alumni who took the time to make this auction even more special: Lucy Lawless, Renee O'Connor, Adrienne Wilkinson, Katherine Fugate, Steven Sears, Melissa Good and Simone Lahbib (who isn't a Xena alumni but took the time to help out and has been adopted as one).

Thank you everyone!

It's time for The AfterEllen.com Hot 100 again! Time to tell the world who lesbian and bi women think are sexy — because even with all the increased visibility we've had in the last decade, heterosexual men and women still dominate the discussion about who and what is attractive, online, on TV, and in magazines like People and Maxim.

Which makes creating this list not only fun, but a little bit revolutionary.

In the form below, you can submit your nominations for the 10 women you think are the hottest women on the planet. They can be gay or straight, young or old, and of any race or nationality — basically, any woman who turns you on. The woman with the most votes will be No. 1, the woman with the second highest number of votes will be No. 2, and so on down the list (which means it doesn't matter in what order you list the names in the form).

Voting will stay open for two weeks until April 24th, and then we'll publish the results on Monday, May 11th. To keep you entertained in between, we'll feature one of the 100 on the blog each weekday from April 27th to May 8th, and you can guess where she landed on the list.

This year, you can also submit nominees for companion lists in the following categories: 10 Hottest Out Lesbian/Bi Women, 10 Hottest Women of Color, and 10 Hottest Women Over 40. And yes, you can nominate someone for more than one list. To submit up to 5 nominees in each of these separate polls just click on the relevant icon (before or after completing your Hot 100 submissions below):
