The Extra (1962 Film)
''The Extra'' (Spanish: ''El extra'') is a 1962 Mexican comedy film directed by Miguel M. Delgado and starring Cantinflas and Alma Delia Fuentes. In the film, Cantinflas plays a man who works as an Extra (acting), extra through several films. This was the last Cantinflas film whose art direction was made by long-time set designer Gunther Gerzso. Plot Rogaciano (Cantinflas) is the modest worker of a Mexican film studio, who performs several roles as an Extra (acting), extra in the films shot there. His excessive zeal at work causes the antipathy of successive directors who do not support his forays into their films. After his run-ins into film sets, he dreams that he is the protagonist of each of the productions of which he has participated, such as him playing a ''Sans-culottes, sans-culotte'' and saving Marie Antoinette in a film about the French Revolution, being the lover of Marguerite Gautier in a retelling of ''La Dame aux Camélias'' in which she survives, and saving a maiden ...

XEWW-AM
XEWW-AM (690 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to the Tijuana/Rosarito area of Baja California, Mexico. Its studios and offices are located in Burbank, California, United States and it is leased by H&H USA. Transmitter XEWW is a high-powered Class A station, with its 77,000-watt daytime signal sometimes reaching as far as the middle of the San Joaquin Valley. It covers nearly all of Southern California and most of Baja California. XEWW operates with 50,000 watts at night as is required by the "Rio Treaty." This same treaty would normally allow XEWW to operate with a daytime signal of 100,000 watts. However, 77,000 watts was apparently selected as this power sends the equivalent of the station's former 50,000-watt daytime signal (from its original Tijuana site, since demolished) towards Los Angeles without also increasing its prohibited overlap with KIRN (670 AM) in Simi Valley and KSPN (710 AM) in Los Angeles (from its present Rosarito site). At night it uses a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Extra (cricket)
In cricket, an extra (sometimes called a sundry) is a run scored by, or awarded to, a batting team which is not credited to any individual batsman. They are the runs scored by methods other than striking the ball with the bat. The extras are tallied separately on the scorecard and count only towards the team's score. Giving away many extras is often considered as untidy bowling. There are five types of extra: no-ball (nb), wide (w or wd), bye (b), leg bye (lb), and penalty run (pen). Types of extras Illegal deliveries These are extras that are awarded because the bowler or fielders have violated certain rules in how they deliver the ball to the batsman (i.e. they are not bowling from far away enough, or the ball is out of the batsman's reach), or where they are positioned in the field. Most methods of dismissal can not occur on an illegal delivery. Illegal deliveries do not count towards the completion of the over they occur in, and thus in limited overs cricket, ille ...

Extra is a Norwegian discount supermarket chain of 535 stores as of 2021. It is part of the Coop Norge cooperative and was until late 2015 named Coop Extra. The chain markets itself as being low-cost while maintaining large stores with a wide selection of items. The chain director of Extra is Daniel Kyrre Pedersen. Coop Extra was established in 2006, with its first store opening on 15 September in Halden. The chain expanded rapidly, much of it by rebranding other Coop stores such as Coop Prix.
