18 Jul '06

---------- Forwarded message ---------- Subject: actors needed for fight film (filmed locally) Please feel free to forward widely: EXTRAS NEEDED FOR LOCAL FILM! To all interested in being in "Rigged": Thanks to everyone for your interest in this film. We are looking for extras to be involved in the making of an underground boxing film, think "Million Dollar Baby" meets "Fight Club." This is your chance to be a part of a major motion picture being shot here in KC! Here's the schedule for all four days: Date: Saturday July 15th Location: underneath the 7th street bridge between Southwest Blvd and I-35 in Kansas City, KS (RSVP for directions) Parking: on location, but dirt roads or off-road Time: 08:30 PM The Scene: Underground boxing match between "Henry the Hacksaw" and a female boxer, "Kid Vixen" (our hero) Wardrobe: Dress rough and tough. Dark clothes and leather are great, but t-shirts and jeans can work as well. No logos. Date: Thursday July 20h AND Friday July 21st Location: Clarion Hotel 9103 E. 39th Street Kansas City, MO, 64133 Parking: on location Time: 06:00 PM The Scene: The FINAL BATTLE between our hero, "Kid Vixen", and the villain "Richter" ... an epic boxing match Wardrobe: Dress can be casual, or classy and upscale ... this is a legal boxing match this time. Dark clothes are great, but suits and ties work as well. No logos. Also: G-Love from the band G-Love & Special Sauce will be appearing in the scene Friday night! Date: Saturday July 22nd Location: parking lot at intersection of 11th St and Mulberry in the West Bottoms in Kansas City, MO Parking: on location Time: 08:30 PM The Scene: An illegal street race Wardrobe: Dress rough and tough. Dark clothes and leather are great, but t-shirts and jeans can work as well. No logos. If you can only come one of the four nights, please come Friday the 21st ... this is the biggest scene in the movie. I'll try to answer all other questions here: - What will extras be doing? -- Each of these scenes takes place at an illegal boxing match (or street race). Extras are playing attendees at these events. They need to be excitedly watching the events in question. Energy is the most important thing. - Can under 18 attend? -- We're looking for crowd members attending underground boxing matches, which means children are unfortunately out. Teenagers that look older are welcome, however. Parents, keep in mind that this is an R-rated film with adult language, themes, and violence. - Is there any pay? -- "Rigged" is an independent film, and much of the cast and crew on "Rigged" are working on a volunteer basis. Extras are as well. - Can I bring friends? -- Absolutely!!! We need all the help we can get to make these scenes as exciting as possible. Tell everyone you know. - What if Im late? No problem! Any time you have to make it is much appreciated! If you are available any of these days, please write RiggedExtras(a)yahoo.com with RSVP and the date(s) in the subject line or message. And feel free to write back with any questions not covered here, or call at 785-979-3789. Thanks! - Stephen Deaver UPM, "Rigged"

by rod 18 Jul '06

18 Jul '06

Anyone have a good lead on finding a MB that accepts: AMD Athlon XP 2500 (socket A) DDR 333 memory AGPx8 I'm trying to replace a ASUS A7V8X-X I've struck out at: MicroCenter (I should have done a more exhaustive search here) CompUSA Computer Depot Surplus Exchange Dash Computer Dist. Even Ebay prices where 50% more that what I paid for my board 2 years ago. Hypertech has one for $40 (only 3 pci slots) that I plan to pick up tonight but thought I would also ask the group. Thanks I plan to be a the meeting tonight. Rod Holcomb

Re: Kclug Digest, Vol 24, Issue 9

This happens to me all the time, its the sound system not recognizing amarok because its buggy (or something like that.) What you need to do is play a video file in totem, because that somehow makes the sound pop back on again.

I have Kubuntu Dapper 6.06 AMD64 at home and have loaded/ran Easyubuntu in order to get added repos, multimedia, etc. I have system sounds working and I get audio and video from a DVD playing in the drive, but .mp3 files give no sound when played in Amarok. Crweb had me install some lib stuff that should have added support, but "w32codecs" said it had no installation target, like it had changed it's name. He linked me to a .deb, which wouldn't install because it was meant for i386 and not x64. I'll check out the following links tonight to see if that sheds more insight. >-----Original Message----- >From: Jason D.

Graphics files
by Zscoundrel 16 Jul '06

16 Jul '06

Not sure where to start with this, but at least I am NOT high jacking another thread!!! (grin) I have been having trouble viewing media files in Email. I get a lot of stuff from friends and family that has audio or video files, and I would like to be able to play an occasional MP3 file but none of that seems to work and I can't find any reference to what works well now. I upgraded to FC4 a few months ago and have been too busy to do a full investigation so a few pointers would be really helpful. I am running the Mozilla suite for Email and surfing and have installed flash and adobe, but not sure what works best for audio and video. What is everyone using these days and what is the best way to install it so I don't spend days buggering something else up? .//

[announcement] kansas city asterisk user group
by Kyle Sexton 13 Jul '06

13 Jul '06

I would like to announce the start of a new asterisk user group here in Kansas City. Right now it's primarly just a mailing list, but if there is enough interest we will probably start doing meetings and the like. You can find information about the group at http://www.kcaug.net/. If you are completely unfamilier with Asterisk here's a snippet from asterisk.org: Asterisk is a complete PBX in software. It runs on Linux, BSD and MacOSX and provides all of the features you would expect from a PBX and more. Asterisk does voice over IP in many protocols, and can interoperate with almost all standards-based telephony equipment using relatively inexpensive hardware. Features Asterisk provides Voicemail services with Directory, Call Conferencing, Interactive Voice Response and Call Queuing. It has support for three-way calling, caller ID services, ADSI, SIP and H.323 (as both client and gateway). Check the Features section for a more complete list. Go ahead and sign up on the list if you are at all in running asterisk at home or where you work! Thanks, Kyle
