|Mr. Robotic's Website
Amidst all the independent emcees who cater to a niche, "underground" audience, there are the exceptional few who are already making club and radio hits—with the right backing, they could easily shoot to the top of the Billboard charts. Bullet, the "cyborg Martian maniac" who recently wowed our readership with debut single "Mr. Robotic," is one of these rare up-and-comers with a preternatural talent for pop songwriting as well as prodigious skills on the mic; once the rest of the industry catches onto his unique blend of futuristic pop appeal and hyperkinetic hipster-hop lyricism, Earth's musical landscape will never be the same.
In just over a year, the Chi-town emcee has established himself as a Booth favorite, earning acclaim for high-energy, Slot A-produced tracks like "Supersonic (Pt. 1)," "Shake Yo Body," and "Take It to the Top," and well as more lyrically-driven cuts like "Fortune Teller.' Fresh off the release of his Home Alone mixtape, Bullet is now preparing to take his game to the next level with his forthcoming, hotly-anticipated Mr. Robotic EP.
In an exclusive interview with our own DJ Z, Bullet steps into the Booth to discuss the importance of balancing individuality with a pop-savvy sound, how he and Slot A came up with the title track and lead single off his forthcoming EP, and whether or not patience is a virtue for artists on the indie grind.

Mr. Robotic Interview Transcription
DJ Booth: What's goin' on, everybody? It's your boy, "Z," doin' it real big, and joining me inside the DJ Booth is an up-and-coming emcee from the Windy City whose nine Booth-approved features over the last year have helped him build up his current buzz. Fresh off the release of his Home Alone mixtape and preparing for the eventual release of his hotly-anticipated Mr. Robotic EP, please welcome my main man, Bullet!
Bullet: Greetings, Earthlings! [laughs]
DJ Booth: How you doin', B?
Bullet: I'm doing awesome, doing awesome. Working hard as usual.
DJ Booth: Absolutely. I know that you're always working, which is a great quality. That's all I do also.
Bullet: Bingo!
DJ Booth: Pretending that you are filling out a job application and not really being interviewed by me inside the Booth, give us, an abridged version of what you are all about.
Bullet: Let's see… I'm a pop-hip-hop artist, I'm a songwriter, and I buy too many kicks! [laughs]
DJ Booth: [laughs] That's pretty abridged! Now, as you and I both know, image is everything. So, considering your stage name is "Bullet," how important is it for you to convey to all your listeners that your music is not at all about gun-packing, ammo-loaded violence?
Bullet: It's very important in my opinion, image-wise. People still ask me for edited versions of my records, and I don't curse at all. I try to take out so much stuff [to the point that] you know I'm not doin' that. 'Cause I feel like, my name, a rock group could have that name, and people wouldn't think it was on some violent stuff, in my opinion.
DJ Booth: Something you've been trying to impress upon people is your unique style. Now, as a self-proclaimed Martian who's orbiting the Earth to feed the masses good music, where do you see yourself fitting in amongst all of your industry peers?
Bullet: I think I have my own niche, but I also can be different in a certain aspect, but I still can fit into the genre I want to go in—like, my music still is in the theme of radio, and I think it still fits there, but I also have my own edge to it, to the point where you know it's me, you wouldn't think it's anybody else.
DJ Booth: So you're the cool kid in school who leads his own group, basically?
Bullet: Yeah, basically! [laughs]
DJ Booth: Let's say I wanted to organize my CD collection by sounds and styles, not alphabetically. What two albums would I slide your forthcoming Mr. Robotic EP in between?
Bullet: Oh, great question!
DJ Booth: Thank you.
Bullet: I would put [it in between] Timbaland's Shock Value and maybe N.E.R.D's Seeinhg Sounds.
DJ Booth: Okay, so, [judging] by your answer, production style is very important—when you go about searching for a certain sound, what is the first step?
Bullet: First, I think the beat has to be different, but it still has to be able to fit. I think people go too far, tryin' to be different, instead of finding that person who can make different stuff, but it still can be mainstream, it's not too left or right. It has to fit—that's what I really look for.
DJ Booth: Well, if what you're doing is different but not too far different, I think it's working.
Bullet: Right! [laughs] Yes, sir.
DJ Booth: For the most part, rap artists absolutely hate to be associated with the word "pop," and in your introductory question you actually called yourself a "pop/rap artist." In several conversations that you and I have had off the mic, you've made it abundantly clear that this is actually your aim, you're not at all afraid of this word. Please divulge and explain exactly what you mean, because, for the most part, people think the word "pop" is, like, a death sentence!
Bullet: Right! [laughs] First off, people forget that "pop" means "popular." I'm not an underground artist—I make popular music. That's what I'm trying to do, that's what I want to do. I think the reason why people don't like the word "pop" associated with rap is because of how pop music ends up corny. My thing is, I'm doin' me, and it's not corny at all—I can actually rap, I can actually make melodies, I can actually make hooks that fit into mainstream radio, that hit Top 40 stations, rhythmic radio, and all of that. So why would I sell myself short, just sayin', "I'm the best lyricist ever!" Why do that when I can also songwrite? And then, on top of that, you have a better chance making records and then letting people know you can rap, instead of proving to other people, "Oh, I can rap," and then trying to make a single. It'll be so hard to do the "Oh, I'm the best lyricist in the world," and then try to make a single after that—it's super-hard to do that.
DJ Booth: You're right about that. Two names that immediately come to mind when I think of rap and pop are Kanye West and Eminem. And, between the two of them, they've probably sold in excess of 50, 60, maybe 70 million copies. So I think it's worked out for them quite nicely—nothing to be afraid of.
Bullet: Right, not at all. [laughs].
DJ Booth: The feature that has received the most love from our readers here at DJBooth.net is your current single, "Mr. Robotic," which certainly has that popular appeal. Explain how you and your man, Slot A, went about crafting this unique piece of ear candy.
Bullet: [Slot A] usually sends me snippets of beats when he's done making them, and I was working on the project that used to be The Lost Jabbawockee, but we changed the name and stuff, and I wasn't gonna ask him for that beat, 'cause I want him to be able to sell beats. I was really taking a [liking] to B.o.B, so I asked somebody who knew people in his crew to see how much it would cost me to see if I could get him on a record, and I knew I couldn't do it, so I was like, "Skip it, I'll do it myself." I asked Slot to finish making the beat, but make sure he made a lot of switches, 'cause I was listening to Justin Timberlake's "What Goes Around Comes Around," and, you know, when the beat switches up to a whole 'nother song, it just takes the song to another level, and I was like, "'Mr. Robotic' needs to do this." People always get into it, whenever a beat swtiches. He finished the beat, I was in my bed, chillin', and it was like three in the morning. I had my microphone that was hooked up to the laptop, and I just started hummin' this melody. It was super-rough, and I sent it back to Slot, and he was like, "Hm… this could work." And then we took it to the studio, I did the same thing, and the engineer, Steve, put his magic on it, and that's my record now! [laughs]
DJ Booth: I have to admit something: every time I listen to the record, my head bobs up and down uncontrollably. To this point I've stayed injury-free, but, should I need to call up my chiropractor, are you willing to cover my copay?
Bullet: Yes, I am, definitely!
DJ Booth: Okay, because eventually, from what I understand, this could lead to serious upper back and neck damage. And if you get a hit single out of it, and a record deal, but I have medical bills out the ass, I don't think that's fair!
Bullet: [laughs] Nah, you're my man, so I'm definitely good for that.
DJ Booth: I appreciate it.
Bullet: You have to promise to come to a show!
DJ Booth: It's gonna happen, it's gonna happen. While constantly recording new material, and in hot pursuit of the next best opportunity, you're also enrolled at Chicago's Columbia College. Studying in school and creating music by themselves are challenging endeavors. You're managing to do both—how's it working out?
Bullet: It's goin' good! I'm actually part-time now, 'cause I travel more. But I think, without Columbia, I wouldn't be where I'm at, honestly, 'cause I met so many people there—like, 90 percent of my friends are in the industry—all because of Columbia. And I made sure, when I was a freshman, that I hung out with the older crowd, the juniors and seniors, 'cause those were the ones that were on their way, and most of them are my best friends now. And then, on top of that, I went to school for music business, so I know this business like the back of my hand. I can't get messed around in no way; I know it. [laughs]
DJ Booth: Have any of your records been penned while sitting in a lecture hall?
Bullet: Yes. I keep my laptop, and I always write my verses on Notepad.
DJ Booth: Do you ever walk down to your teacher at the end of that lecture and say, "Thank you," and he says, "Uh, what are you thanking me for?" [and you say], "I got some of the best writing I've ever done today, in your class?"
Bullet: [laughs] Yeah, maybe I should start thankin' them!
DJ Booth: Absolutely! When you get it on an album, you should include them in the publishing.
Bullet: That's what I think I'm gonna do.
DJ Booth: Now, moving forward, obviously, your goal has to be getting together with some sort of label who sees your direction and wants to roll with you, allowing you to do what you and not what they want. What would be your ideal situation?
Bullet: Hm, let's see… what type of label would I sign to?
DJ Booth: What would you need from any prospective label out there, in order to sufficiently and happily create music and have it released within your own rules and regulations?
Bullet: All I personally would need is a marketing budget and creative control.
DJ Booth: That's it?
Bullet: That's about it! [laughs]
DJ Booth: Labels, you can save yourselves lots of money; my man B has a special going on right now, it's a limited-time-only offer! So, with a little bit of marketing expertise, a budget, and creative control, you could be on top of the industry.
Bullet: It's really all I need. I have relationships with producers, I have everything—just give me money to market and a video and I'm good.
DJ Booth: The flip side of this all—and I want you to get serious with me—is, obviously, the way you put it seems so simple. So, how frustrating is it, up to this point, to know that, really, that's all it's gonna take, and it hasn't happened yet?
Bullet: For me, it's super-frustrating. Like, anybody who knows me knows I'm probably down every night—a tear comes out every night! I think, just the fact that I know what I'm doing, and just seeing other people who probably haven't accomplished all that I've accomplished in the past two years, and they have deals and stuff, it's heartbreaking for me personally, but I know that everything I keep getting now is always gonna add more to my résumé. There's a reason for everything, so I stop doubting and just keep recording records.
DJ Booth: Well, as I tweet about regularly, even though I know you don't always see eye to eye with me, patience is a virtue that you need to instill in yourself, and it's going to come eventually. Mark my words, I'm usually never wrong—I have a good track record, ask around!
Bullet: Yeah, of course, of course! I remember, I wrote a blog on that; I received the tweets you wrote about patience. Somebody just hit me in my Honesty Box, "Just because you're young doesn't mean it's just gong to fall into your lap," or something, "You're very talented ," and all that. I just got super-sad about that, 'cause it's like, people forget, I've been doin' this since I was 16! I've probably met [everybody] in the Chicago industry in the past four or five years! So that was my thing with the patience. 'Cause it's like how long is bein' too patient? I just didn't understand that.
DJ Booth: Well, there are several artists who are signed to several key major labels, who have been sitting on the back burner for at least a decade, so, in my eyes, you definitely have a leg up on them. And the next step is clearly to make sure that everybody and anybody knows about what you have goin' on, so give them a website, a MySpace page, so they can find out more about you.
Bullet: Sure. The website is gobullet.com, MySpace page is myspace.com/gobullet, and Twitter is twitter.com/gobullet—follow me, I'm almost at 2,000, yay! [laughs]
DJ Booth: [laughs] Well, B, it's a pleasure to have you join me inside the DJ Booth. I know it's been a long time comin', so I appreciate your patience there and wish you nothing but the continued best of luck, my friend.
Bullet: Yes sir!

A Fan Too Far
by Mike Coffey
When you operate a sports fansite, you're exposed to people in all walks of life and at all levels of fandom. The vast majority are ordinary folks who love the same team you do, and your encounters and exchanges with them can be very rewarding.
But there's a reason the word "fan" is borne of the word "fanatic". Every now and again you brush up against the outer fringe of the spectrum, and those encounters aren't nearly as rewarding. In fact, they can be downright unsettling.
I was reminded of some of those encounters the other day on the train, when I read this article about Alabama fan Bobby Livingston, a worker on the construction crew making the upgrades to Kyle Field at Texas A&M University, who was fired for the ways in which he was expressing his fandom at work.
Some of the episodes were innocent, such as flying the Crimson Tide flag at the worksite. But others, hinted at on his social media accounts, potentially were much less so. He claimed he was "wrong-holing everying" in an effort to slow the project down, and bragged about "questionable welds" while (hopefully) joking that fans who sit in that area should be careful.
Obviously I have no way of knowing whether or not this guy actually did those things. One hopes it was simply braggadocio from one Tide fan to others and this guy wouldn't put the lives of Texas A&M fans at risk, and a logical-person test probably would lead you to that conclusion.
But it's not a definitive conclusion, and that's what I find scary.
Yes, he's probably full of hot air. But a part of my brain remembers counters with the fanatic fringe on the ND side, and that part isn't so sure. Some folks wrap all too much of themselves and their self-worth in the outcomes on the gridiron and hardwood (not to mention their participation on websites), and it's not too difficult to see someone like that take things on a job site a little too far.
At the very least, this guy's love for Alabama (or at the very least his inability to express it correctly) cost him a (probably good-paying) gig. I always said if NDNation started causing problems in my real life, I'd walk away from it in a New York minute. I wonder what Mr. Livingston will choose to do?

House Republicans are moving toward a vote on a six-week extension of the nation's debt limit as a way to buy time for more negotiations with President Obama.
GOP leaders discussed the proposal with their members at a conference meeting, with some aides saying a vote could come as soon as Thursday.
It is not clear if the hike to the $16.7 trillion debt limit would be completely "clean," meaning it would not demand concessions from Democrats. A clean hike would mark a significant concession to the White House.

That is more horrifying than having her leave it at a mystery. Now she is admitting that she is fine with possibility of the destruction of life. Doesn't matter either way to her.
Obama is the same - he claims to have no idea when life begins. 50/50 chance that it is murder, but he'll support it anyway. Going a step further, he says, even if the aborted baby moves (he or she is alive) it is not worth saving.
Forget about 'No blood for oil' The Dems are willing to give the blood of infants for expediency and votes/power.

David Burgin, longtime newspaper editor, dies
According to the Associated Press, Burgin died of the effects of four serious strokes he had suffered since 1997, said his wife, Judy Burgin.
Burgin had served as editor-in-chief of seven U.S. daily newspapers, starting with New Jersey's Paterson News in 1977. His first top management jobs came at The Washington Star, where he rose through the ranks of sports editor and city editor to assistant managing editor and hired such young talent as future New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd and sportswriter Ira Berkow.
He talked two Washington bartenders, future Boston Globe business writer Chris Reidy and future Chicago Tribune columnist Steve Daley, into trying newspaper work.
After getting his first assignment of running a newspaper in 1977, as editor-in-chief of the Paterson News in New Jersey, The Tribune Co. hired him a year later to merge two of its Bay Area dailies, the Palo Alto Times and Redwood City Tribune, into the Peninsula Times Tribune, which closed in 1993.
The Tribune Co. later sent him to improve and expand the Orlando Sentinel.
In 1985, Hearst Newspapers hired Burgin to revive the fading fortunes of its flagship San Francisco Examiner. He was fired by publisher William Randolph Hearst III after seven months on the job.
In a 1996 profile published in the SF Weekly, Burgin said he was fired after spurning an invitation to meet with the Hearst Corp. board.
After doing consulting work for a year, Burgin took the offer of former Washington Star colleague William Dean Singleton to be editor-in-chief of the Dallas Times Herald, which Singleton had just bought from the Times Mirror Corp.
From 1986 to 1990, Burgin worked to try to save two Singleton dailies from extinction, running the Dallas daily for two years before the owner of its crosstown rival, The Dallas Morning News, bought and folded it.
Singleton took the proceeds to buy The Houston Post, another struggling No. 2 newspaper in its market, and hired Burgin as its editor-in-chief for the next two years.
In 1990, Singleton hired Burgin to run a newspaper group he had just bought in the Bay Area, the Alameda Newspaper Group (later the Bay Area Newspaper Group), which included the Oakland Tribune.
Singleton sold the Houston Post in 1995 to its dominant crosstown rival, the Houston Chronicle, which folded the Post.
Burgin began to acquire a reputation for trying to revive fading and dying newspapers, having been associated with so many of them, Judy Burgin said.
"He was brought in when there was trouble. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it was too late," she said.
He remained as editor and vice president of Singleton's Bay Area Newspaper Group until 1997 when he suffered the first of a series of four serious strokes.
But convalescing easily bored him, his wife said, so he took over a book publisher, Woodford Publishing, and in 2000 rejoined the no-longer-Hearst-owned San Francisco Examiner. He was fired a year later.
His health continued to deteriorate, but he never lost his penchant for ideas for an increasingly struggling newspaper industry, Judy Burgin said.
"It was heartbreaking to him what was happening. He had ideas for how to fix it, but he was too sick to act on them," she said.
A memorial is tentatively scheduled for 2 p.m. Sunday, June 22, at the Houston Country Club.

When I interview Will Hearst he said Burgin, who struggled with alcoholism, didn't "spur" Hearst's invitation to meet with the board... he failed to show up at the board meeting because he was on a bender. Now that he's dead folks will plaster over his many flaws but he was an awful editor to work with, even when he was sober.

David Burgin will have his detractors but having worked with him while at the SF Examiner during the Fang days, I found him to be one of the best old-fashioned journalists.
He had a lot to offer and he was more than willing to teach.
I can honestly say my days at the Examiner with Burgin were some of the best times in my 20-plus years as a journalist.
Thank you Dave from "Hawkeye."

Over-rated and overpaid. never stayed anywhere long enough to make a real difference. Made a lot of dumb mistakes along the way, especially in Houston during the short time he was there.

Look up "most overrated" in the dictionary and you're liable to see a picture of Dave Burgin. Too little, too late to make any differences whatsoever. And his "eye for talent" tag is exaggerated as well. He liked to hire bartenders, probably because he got a bigger discount off his considerable bar tabs as a result.

Portland multimedia artist Alexis Gideon's show Alexis Gideon: Video Musics Series opened in late September at Emmanuel Gallery. But gallery director and curator Shannon Corrigan says the collection of still images, drawings and what she calls a "trailer," for lack of a better word, are like eye candy to fuel interest in tonight's live video opera performance with the artist in person. And she's almost at a loss to describe what will transpire: "It's like nothing I've ever seen before, visually," she says. "The pieces are very layered and raw, and the music is so contemporary. He's a DIY artist from beginning to end, creating all of his own music, with the narratives unfolding in a pretty in-depth story."
Gideon will present the local premiere of Video Musics: Floating Oceans — a stop-motion animated video based on the writings of Irish author Lord Dunsany and dream experimentation by Irish physicist John William Dunne and interpreted through a battering ram of utterances, morphing musical genres and hands-on imagery — beginning at 6 p.m. (doors open for a reception at 5 p.m.) at Emmanuel, located on the Auraria campus. Admission is free; for information, go to www.emmanuelgallery.org or call 303-556-8337. Video Musics Series continues through November 1.
Mon., Oct. 22, 6 p.m., 2012

Cristiano Ronaldo's first-half score was the only difference between Real Madrid and Malaga as Carlo Ancelotti's side claimed a 1-0 win at Estadio La Rosaleda.
The Portugal international fired home a low strike after beating three Malaga defenders in the 23rd minute to claim a narrow victory for Real.
The result left Malaga in 13th place but only three points clear of the Primera Division relegation zone.
Atletico Madrid remained hot on the heels of Real following a 1-0 victory over Espanyol at the Estadio Vicente Calderon.
Diego Costa netted the only goal of the game as Atletico kept the pace at the top to sit three points below Real.
Rayo Vallecano climbed out of the relegation zone by comfortably beating fellow strugglers Almeria 3-1 to record their third straight league win.
Alberto Bueno gave the hosts the lead on 37 minutes and Joaquin Larrivey extended the advantage 20 minutes later. Fernando Soriano then gave Almeria a brief glimmer of hope with a powerful finish, but Larrivey struck again to secure another vital victory for Paco Jemez's side.
Celta Vigo took a big step towards securing their survival with a narrow but vital 1-0 victory at Levante.
Nolito scored the only goal of the game after 19 minutes and Celta were fortunate not to lose their lead in the second half, with Levante's David Barral missing a penalty and then having a shot blocked on the line by Celta goalkeeper Yoel Rodriguez, although it looked as if it may have crossed.

RA Jones was born in 1955 and grew up in a mining village in South Wales with his nose in a book and his head in the clouds. He managed to subdue his imagination long enough to carve out a career in medicine, writing whenever the chance arose.
In 1994, writing as Dylan Jones, he published his first scary book for adults, a thriller, which was subsequently made into a two-part film by the BBC. Other scary books followed.
Book Description
Oz Chambers lives in a haunted house. His mother wants to move, but Oz believes that the old place is too full of mystery to leave. When he and his friends hear ghostly footsteps, they decide to investigate the house's eerie reputation. But what Oz hasn't bargained for is that he's not alone in his quest and that solving Penwurt's puzzles will uncover a murky secret, and the chilling realisation that nothing is quite what it seems.

Game Description
Laws and Every Other Damn Thing
Came a time when I figured the Stolen Lands was just plain cursed. Nowadays, I know it is. Aint never been a more ornery stretch o land that was that fertile, tell you what. Every sad sumbitch went out there to settle th place came back with naught to hold but his pecker, and thats if he was lucky enough to come back with hands at all. If the bandits dont get you the trolls and fey will, an youll be owlbear turds afore you can spit sideways.
So, good luck out there.
Howdy folks, Im Doctor Kash, and Im going to run a 4E game here on Myth-Weavers. Specifically, well be running Paizos Kingmaker Adventure Path, which Ill be converting to D&D 4th Edition. Well also be using the Golarion campaign setting, which is in my opinion one of the best campaign settings on the market.
Kingmaker is something of a departure from the Adventure Paths you may be used to- this one is based around sandbox exploration, wilderness adventuring, kingdom building, and has much less structure than modules/paths generally do. In fact, Ill be adding more content into it to open up the sandbox a bit more; My goal is that in this world, you will be able to do anything you want to do.
As for the theme of the game, Im going for something akin to the Deadwood television series. Much like Deadwood, the Stolen Lands are a harsh world where encroaching civilization and the lawless wilds come together, and this creates a community rife with conflict.
While this is Golarion, we are changing it somewhat. The look and feel will be very much American West during the Gold Rush era, including the advent of firearms (see below). The West as a culture is slowly dying, but the people are still as barbarous as ever. Saloons teem with monsters hiding under thin sheets of civilization.
This will be a very adult-themed game.
Enter the nation of
. Long time ago it was two nations, neither of which liked each other, by the names of Issia and Rostland.
Badass fella came along name of Choral the Conquerer, who kicked the crap out of everyone in what is now Brevoy with his two buddies, who happened to be
red dragons.
Because of Choral's immense ass-badness, he became the king and united both countries, who still didn't like each other.
After a short dynasty of Choral's less-badass children, the entire royal line vanished one day. Nobody knows what happened, but the Surtova family cited some bull-hockey that put one of theirs on the throne. The Surtova's are Issian, which made the Rostlanders extremely angry. Restov, a city-state that will get mentioned pretty often in this game, wants to challenge the Surtovan hold on the throne with a Rostlander king/queen.
The nobles of Rostland are called Swordlords, and yes, that is a stupid name. The Swordlords of Restov had themselves a great little schemin' party, and came up with the idea that they needed to expand their military might and holdings. The Stolen Lands to the south, long a threat due to bandits and barbarians, represented the perfect opportunity.
Unfortunately, if they'd just up and annexed part of the Stolen Lands, it would tip their hand; Surtovan interests would see that as an obvious power grab and they'd respond in kind. Ergo, the Swordlords of Restov decided that if they sent some adventurers down south to explore the area under the pretense of dealing with raiders, they could eventually set up an ally state beholden to them. When it came time to throw down against Issia, Rostland would have a powerful ally to the south backing their play.
So, the Swordlords of Restov put out the call, and have chartered four groups of adventurers (with a liberal sprinkling of their own people, to ensure loyalty to Rostland). You are in one of these groups.
Originating from the province of Alkenstar, firearms have spread like wildfire across Golarion as an equalizer to rampant mages running around as if they own the place. The current tech level allows for revolvers, rifled barrels, and standardized ammunition. As factories are still unheard of apart from the Alkenstar gunworks, the creation of guns is still an artform practiced by individual gunsmiths, some more effectively than others. However, there's enough of a consensus to have a few distinct calibers of ammunition that are compatible across gunsmiths.
The magic-using population of Golarion has stepped up their efforts in this arms-race; many wizards, sorcerers, and hedge-magicians have adapted guns as a focus for their spellcasting. They originally used these like wands, only to find out that the Gun of Cure Light Wounds tended to defeat its own purpose.
Mechanically, there are no rules for firearms. The way we're going to treat this is the time-honored 4e artform of reskinning. Essentially, I don't care much what you describe your awesome attacks as. In your posts you would describe your gunslinger blasting away at enemies with two pearl-handled revolvers while your deputy sneaks up on a flank with his double-barreled shotgun. That's fine; mechanically, the ranger is using twin strike and the rogue is coming up for a melee attack with a shortsword.
Feel free to get creative with your reskinning; pretty much any ranged attack can be done with a rifle/pistol, including magic. Melee attacks work well as shotgun blasts, and area effects can be any number of things, like dynamite or molotov cocktails.
Why are you using 4th edition for a Pathfinder module?
Because I like 4th more. If you want to see Kingmaker done as intended in Pathfinder, I strongly suggest you go buy the modules and run it yourself. Hell, Id even ask to play in it, except that Im already in a PFRPG Kingmaker game.
Can I reskin X race mechanically into a human?
Sure. Knock yourself out.
5-6 with party composition taken into account. Im looking for people that can handle roleplaying and combat with equal aplomb; if you only like one or the other, you need not apply.
As for posting requirements, once a day is more than enough. If we end up waiting on you for more than a few weekdays during combat, I'll probably NPC your turn, the next time, we'll start looking for a replacement. Outside of combat, if we don't hear from you for a long stretch, we'll probably start asking after you and failing a response, will start looking for a replacement.
Anything put out by Wizards of the Coast for 4th edition. 3rd party 4th edition content on a case-by-case basis, and Im willing to convert backgrounds from Paizos stuff.
Build characters using standard point buy at level 1 with 100gp starting funds.
Please also check out the Kingmaker Players guide for background information, available for a free download
. Please note that at least a skim of this narrow volume is required for this game.
Nowadays the characters are at level 2, so you'll be building at 2 with standard gear for that level.
I'm shamelessly stealing the writeup that Sandster already did. Here it is:
The regions of Golarion are all ripped shamelessly from cultures and, in some cases, stereotypes from the real world. While I'm not going to waste time debating whether or not that's questionable from a political correctness standpoint, it does allow me to describe those regions and peoples very easily.
Listed below are short descriptions of each ethnic group.
Very similar to Rome during Caligula or Nero's rule. As a state they have made alliances with infernal powers; they are under the impression that they are in control. Here law and morality don't really coincide; ask any slave.
Similar to Bedouins before the time of Muhammad. If you really enjoyed Lawrence of Arabia, this is a good race for you.
Middle Easterners after Muhammad.
Less of a real-world analogue, and more ripped straight out of Conan's Hyboria. Specifically, Cimmeria.
Essentially African tribes, such as the Zulu.
The English during Victoria's rule, with a strong emphasis on Imperialism and National Superiority.
Your token Chinese/Japanese representation. They added this in because someone is going to want to play a
damn samurai.
Indians, complete with a religion different than Hindu in name only. Lots of monks come from here, incidentally.
The regions are a little more widespread than the ethnic groups, which I'll get into later. The Golarion Campaign setting is, well,
It may be easier, if you wish, to pick a real-world historical culture/place, and then I can tell you which Paizo-fied intellectual property your character hails from.
What I want in an application
Virtues and Flaws
A picture would be nice. I'm going to need one eventually to make a battle grid token for you.

Each young woman will seek to strengthen relationships with extended family members.
Prepare a copy of the questionnaire "Who Am I?" for each young woman. Provide pencils.
Display pictures of extended family members associating together.
Assign two class members to be prepared to share ways their family strengthens relationships with extended family members.
Assign two class members to tell briefly the stories of Ruth and Naomi (see Ruth 1–4) and Moses and Jethro (see Exodus 18:7–27).
Assign class members to present any stories, scriptures, or quotations you wish.
Suggested Lesson Development
Ask each young woman to complete the "Who Am I?" questionnaire.
Who Am I?
Fill in the blanks that apply to you with as many names as you can.
I am the daughter of
I am the sister of
I am the sister-in-law of
I am the granddaughter of
I am the niece of
I am the cousin of
I am the aunt of
Teacher presentation
Explain that families are basically composed of parents and their children, but families also include other members such as grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers' and sisters' spouses, nieces, and nephews. These other relatives are called extended family members and can greatly enrich our own family circles.
Ask the young women to count how many extended family members they wrote down. Point out that most people have many extended family members with whom they can cultivate lasting relationships.
We Should Strengthen Relationships with Extended Family Members
Teacher presentation
The scriptures give us examples of how extended family members have established strong relationships and shown great love and concern for each other. One example is Joseph who was sold into Egypt by his brothers. Joseph became a ruler in Egypt, and his brothers, who had betrayed him, came before him seeking help. They did not know that he was the brother they had sold many years before. It would have been easy for Joseph to seek revenge, but instead he promised to help not only them, but also their wives, sons, daughters, and all of his father's family. (See Genesis 45; 47:11–12.) He was able to be a great blessing to all of his family.
Class member presentations
Ask the assigned young women to tell the stories of Ruth and Naomi (see Ruth 1–4), and Moses and Jethro (see Exodus 18:7–27).
- •
What can we learn from these people about how the Lord wants us to interact with extended family members?
Explain that we have been counseled in these latter days to cultivate close relationships with our extended family members. President Spencer W. Kimball said: "We ought to encourage our children to know their relatives. We need to talk of them, make effort to correspond with them, visit them, join family organizations, etc." (in Conference Report, Oct. 1974, p. 161; or Ensign, Nov. 1974, p. 112).
- •
Why do you think it is important that we know our relatives?
Emphasize the following points: (1) The love of our extended family members can make us feel secure and give us a sense of belonging. (2) We have a responsibility to help our extended family members and should know their needs so we can assist when necessary. (3) We can better research family history and provide names of other family members for temple work if we work as an extended family.
We Can Strengthen These Relationships in Many Ways
Teacher presentation
Explain that it is easy to say we are too busy, too far away, or too uninterested to strengthen our relationships with extended family members. But given a little creativity and time, we can do things with extended family members that will become some of our choicest memories.
Class member presentations
Ask the two assigned young women to share with the class ways in which their families strengthen relationships with extended family members.
- •
What are other ways we can strengthen these relationships?
Answers might include family reunions; family newsletters; working together on family history; establishing or joining family organizations; inviting extended family members to birthdays, baptisms, and weddings; working together to serve a family member; helping family members in times of emergency or crisis.
Explain that one way to strengthen extended family relationships is to plan an enjoyable or recreational event that will draw family members together. Such activities could include picnics, birthday celebrations, vacations together, or just visits to one another's homes.
- •
What activities have you enjoyed with your extended family?
Another way to strengthen extended family relationships is through correspondence, as shown in this story about a young woman and her grandmother.
Nancy wanted to give her grandmother something special for her birthday. Nancy had lived close to her grandmother until her last year of high school, but then her family had moved away. Now Nancy saw her grandmother much less than before. Nancy decided to write a letter to her grandmother in which she recorded all the special memories they had shared. She expressed her love, appreciation, and thankfulness. Her grandmother was so thrilled that she wept with joy. Since then she has told Nancy many times how much the letter meant to her. She has read and reread the letter and even sent copies of it to several family members.
- •
Why do you think the grandmother responded as she did? What could you do to create this kind of closeness with your grandparents or other family members?
Extended Family Relationships Bring Blessings
Teacher presentation
Explain that almost anyone who has been away from home, family, and relatives for an extended time soon realizes the many benefits of strong family relationships. It is easy, however, to take these benefits for granted if they are always around us.
Activity and discussion
Some of the young women in the class may leave home in the next few years for school or work. Ask all of the class members to imagine that they have left home and are not near any extended family members. Ask them to name some of the things they might miss most about being close to these family members. (Some of their answers might include family dinners, a close friendship with a cousin, holding a newborn niece or nephew, talking to a favorite aunt, riding an uncle's horses, seeing a grandma's cheery smile and eating her good cooking, and games, parties, and celebrations shared together.)
Explain that whether we live close to extended family members or live away from them, we should value and nurture the many blessings they bring into our lives.
Teacher presentation
Elder Vaughn J. Featherstone told how his great-grandmother had a great influence on his aunt:
"I have a sweet Aunt Beryl Hollindrake. She told me that when she was just three or four years old that my great-grandmother, her Grandmother Featherstone, would hold her on her lap and tell her about the Savior, all the beautiful stories. Then she would recall how my great-grandmother would tell her about the Savior's trial and how they beat him and cursed him and spit upon him—how they dragged him and forced him against the cross and drove huge spikes into his hands cruelly. She said, 'As my grandmother would tell me these stories, tears would stream down her cheeks.' And she said, 'It was on the lap of my grandmother that I learned to love the Savior with all my heart and soul'" (in Conference Report, Oct. 1974, p. 39; or Ensign, Nov. 1974, p. 30).
- •
Has an extended family member strengthened your testimony of the gospel? In what way?
Remind the young women that extended family members truly are a blessing to them. They should follow the counsel given by their leaders and take the time and make the effort to strengthen these relationships. The relationships will enrich their lives and be a comfort and strength they can count on.
Lesson Application
Ask the young women to choose an extended family member they wish to become closer to and use one of the ways discussed in the lesson to strengthen that relationship.

Have you ever uploaded a video to YouTube that just hasn't taken off?
Well in honor of geek week, SoulPancake decided to use Science to figure out how to make a video go viral.
What did they find? A song parody of "Rock Star" by Smashmouth starring almost every internet meme from the last couple of years.
We would say that they figured it out.

Todd Blackledge, the analyst doing Saturday's USC-UCLA game from the Rose Bowl for ABC, has been making himself a guest of whatever local eatery will have him in a "Todd's Taste of the Town" segment that he's made popular during games that he's covered the last couple of seasons.
Above, that's him at the famed Apple Pan in West L.A. during a trip out during Labor Day weekend to cover the UCLA-Tennessee opener at the Rose Bowl. During Saturday's USC-Notre Dame game from the Coliseum on ESPN, which he did with Mike Patrick, Blackledge visited Philippe's French Dip (linked here) and wolfed down a roast beef and montery jack cheese double-dipped sandwich for the cameras.
"Ooooolala," he exclaimed.
Where's he putting on the feedbag this week? Tommy's? Pink's?
We're still trying to get a hold of him. Stay tuned.
Meanwhile, check out this story on Blackledge (linked here) done last week by ESPN.com's sports travel columnist Brett Pauley, who some will remember as the former L.A. Daily News outdoors writer.

Hello, I'm new to the forum and wondering if anyone can help me with dilema.
I purchase a remote fob for my EX but can't seem to program the remote
I've done everything but unsure of the some of the direction. I higlighted them in RED
What does power door locks cycle to confirm if your in programming mode?
How can i find out if my vehicle IS equip with the keyless entry.
thank you
using this technic.
1994-97 Accord 5-door EX with factory-installed keyless entry system
1995-98 Odyssey EX with factory-installed keyless entry system
Programming the Transmitter
^ The system accepts up to two transmitters.
^ Entering the programming mode cancels all learned transmitter codes, so none of the previously programmed transmitters will work. You must reprogram all of the transmitters once you are in the programming mode.
1. Open the driver's door.
2. Push the driver's power door lock switch to the unlock position and hold it. (Continue to hold the switch during this procedure.)
3. Insert the key into the ignition switch, then remove it. Repeat this four more times (five times total) within 10 seconds. (You must complete steps 3 and 4 within 10 seconds or the system will exit the programming mode.)
4. Insert the key into the ignition switch. After you insert the key, make sure the power door locks cycle to confirm that the system is in the programming mode.[/SIZE][/SIZE]
5. Press the "LOCK" or "UNLOCK" button on the transmitter. All the power door locks (except the driver's door) should cycle to confirm that the system accepted the transmitter's code.
6. To program a second transmitter, press its "LOCK" or "UNLOCK" button within 10 seconds of programming the first transmitter.
7. Release the master power door lock switch to exit the programming mode.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stocks slipped on Tuesday on comments by Federal Reserve officials saying the FOMC would likely opt for some tapering of QE3 and QE4 purchases of agency mortgage-backed securities and longer dated Treasuries as early as next month.Two key levels came into play among the five major equity averages. The Nasdaq traded below my monthly pivot at 3663, but closed above it. The Russell 2000 closed just below its weekly pivot at 1053.08. Weakness in these two indices is important to watch as they are the most overbought on their weekly charts. Fundamentally the ValuEngine valuation warning continues with 76.7% of all stocks overvalued with 44.1% overvalued by 20% or more. 15 of 16 sectors are overvalued, 14 by double-digit percentages including 10 overvalued by more than 20%. Seven of the eight companies that reported quarterly results premarket on Tuesday handily beat EPS Wall Street estimates. I profiled these eight stocks on August 5 in, Michael Kors, Dish and Molson Coors Earnings Preview. Today I provide a scorecard for these stocks, and profile four stocks of interest that were taken to the investor woodshed on company specific negative news. Scorecard from stocks that reported earnings results premarket on Tuesday: Archer Daniels ( ADM) ($37.89) beat estimates by 4 cents earning 46 cents a share. The stock opened lower on Tuesday but then traded up to a new multi-year high at $38.18 despite having a sell rating by ValuEngine. My semiannual value level is $33.38 with a monthly pivot at $38.75 and annual risky level is $39.17. CVS Caremark ( CVS) ($59.89) beat estimates by 4 cents earning 97 cents a share. The stock traded down to its 50-day simple moving average at $59.53 on Tuesday even with a buy rating. My quarterly value level is $58.42 with a weekly pivot at $61.65 and monthly risky level at $64.95. DISH) ($44.91) beat estimates by 6 cents earning 60 cents a share. The hold rated stock opened lower trading down to $43.60 then rebounded to $46.00. My semiannual value level is $43.28 with a weekly risky level at $47.31.

You are an Adventurer!
Whether you fashion yourself after great warriors or seekers of lore, you want a life that takes you to interesting places in search of treasure, fame, knowledge, power, or just excitement. The Western Heartlands of Faerûn are filled with strange beasts, ancient ruins, and warring powers. It is here that you began your life as an adventurer and hope to continue.
You have a short life expectancy!
Nobody knows this better than the former adventurers known as "the Heartland Warders." Once a force known throughout the Heartlands, their number has diminished over the years and the remaining Warders have cooled the fires of their youth. You yourself have faced death and consider it a small miracle that you are alive today.
You need role models!
The three surviving Warders have retired from adventuring, but see that their skills are still needed. Though they have little taste for excitement and adventure, they offer guidance to would-be heroes who dream of adventure, but too often find just pain and death. They've found you after a few initial successes and offered their aid. Each has knowledge of the Western Heartlands which provides you with increased survivability in your pursuits. Their real goal is to have you deal with the kinds of things which need doing but they no longer feel up to. They are also trying to fill the vacuum left by their withdrawal from adventuring.

Carolina Abril, Candy Licious, Breathless and James had a no holds prohibited fucky-fucky. The women very first liked some alone time, smooching, slit gobbling and bap gargling. Briefly after, Panting and James joined them with their rock hard spunk-pumps in arm well-prepped for activity. Carolina and Licious deep-deep throated both of the boys and then interchanged chisels for more rod gargling joy. Panting and James continually romped both of the women all over the place. After receiving the drilling of a lifetime, Carolina and Licious nearly buried in what seemed like an never-ending blast of jizm that was shot with pinpoint accuracy on their pretty faces

Around the Nation
Here are four arts and culture videos from public broadcasting partners around the nation.
"Off Book" explores "The Art of Web Design":
"The explosion of the internet over the past 20 years has led to the development of one of the newest creative mediums: the website. Web designers have adapted through the technological developments of html, CSS, Flash, and JavaScript, and have mastered the balance between creativity and usability. Now, the rise of mobile computing is further changing our expectations for responsible web design."
Watch The Art of Web Design | OFF BOOK on PBS. See more from Off Book.
"Idea Channel" asks, "Are Virtual Video Game Economies Becoming Real?":
"The idea that a collection of pixels can be sold for actual money might be confusing to some, as they are neither true "objects" you can hold nor "ideas" that can be considered intellectual property. But despite the lack of tangibility, real world economies have formed around these games and real world profits are being made."
Watch Are Virtual Video Game Economies Becoming Real? on PBS. See more from Idea Channel.
"The Cliburn: 50 Years of Gold" premieres Friday on PBS (check your local listings):
"Every four years, a group of the finest young pianists takes the stage at the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition in Fort Worth, Texas….Seen through the eyes and memories of 15 gold medalists, The Cliburn: 50 Years of Gold follows the half-century-long history of one of the world's most prestigious music competitions."
Watch The Cliburn: 50 Years of Gold – Preview on PBS. See more from 50 Years of Gold.
"MN Original" profiles artist Emily Gray Koehler:
"Printmaker Emily Koehler's reduction woodblock prints are nature scenes informed by a childhood split between the farm and the forest. After an initial print is made, Koehler builds a corresponding collagraph out of a rigid surface, collected prairie grasses and glue, to which she applies ink and runs through a press atop the original print. The result is an added layer of texture which makes the two-dimensional print more dynamic. Koehler lives and works in White Bear Lake."

Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter has played the NGP and likes what he saw, Tweeting that "with the right software, quite awesome".
"Hands on NGP at Sony yesterday; with the right software, quite awesome. The controls very smooth, the screen flawless, price will be high," he tweeted.
He followed with his thoughts on the handheld's release price.
"Tretton said NGP "between $100 and $599", am betting it's priced either $299 or $349, depending upon bill of materials"
"My guess? Two models, one at each of those price points (3G/non-3G). Or maybe $349/$399."
Finally Pachter said what gamers will be pleased to hear.
"Uncharted NGP tech demo was cool, accelerometer to swing on rope, massage back touch pad to climb, dual analogs intuitive. Gamers will likee."
We're expecting to hear much more on the NGP at E3 this summer - hopefully a price, release date and even its final name.

This post is brought to you by Visit Santa Maria Valley, which provided advertising support. Ever since butchers Larry Viegas and Bob Schutz grilled the first tri-tip in the meat department of a Safeway store on the corner of Mill and Vine Streets in Santa Maria, California in 1952, the Santa Maria Valley has been one of America's best kept barbecue secrets. California's favorite barbecued beef, the tri-tip—the triangular tip of the sirloin—combines...Read more →
The ride up Highway 29 from the city of Napa to Calistoga takes you past some of the greatest wineries in North America -- Silverado, Stag's Leap, Grgich Hills (to name a few). But don't limit your explorations to wine tasting. When you reach Calistoga, you'll see a plume of smoke on the left and a parking lot where Harleys and pickup trucks idle next to Jags and Mercedes. Your nostrils will twitch at the scent of red meat roasting over an oak fire,...Read more →
BLISS ON THE BONE Greetings from one of our favorite chop houses - "Press" in St. Helena in the Napa Valley. Pastured meats. Great local wines. And a souffle for dessert made from Scharffen Berger 70 per cent chocolate. Here's one secret behind Press's big flavors: They use only cherry and almond in the wood-burning grill. Absolute bliss on the bone: a mixed grill featuring Sonoma lamb chops, smoky beef tenderloin kebabs, and Wagyu...Read more →
SOME ASSEMBLY REQUIRED Our friend Rueben Olivas, an active barbecue blogger and firefighter on Guam, recently indulged himself by ordering an authentic Santa Maria-style grill, a first among Guamanian grillers. Rueben is actually a Santa Maria, California, native, so knows a thing or two about these nifty grills with their fly-wheel controlled grill grates. We're guessing he knows his way around tri-tips, too, a specialty of the Santa Maria Valley...Read more →
Greetings from Oakland, California, where Steven found an amazing restaurant, Camino. The cooking is done on a wood fire over a raised hearth--exactly as it would have been centuries ago anywhere in North America or Europe. (There's also a wood-burning oven.) Simple, beautiful food cooked by a wood fire. It's a "must try" on your next visit to the East Bay.Read more →
Playing with Fire in LA Can man live on barbecue alone? Absolutely. But women? Maybe not.

Full Court Press There are many reasons to visit the Napa Valley. Add the restaurant Press, in St. Helena, to your list of incentives to go there. Steven is pictured above with Chef Keith Luce and his lust-worthy wood-burning stove and grill (both custom-built). Keith, named a "rising star" by the James Beard Foundation, also cooked in the White House kitchen before relocating to the West Coast. Press opened in Spring, 2005, and is rightfully...Read more →

Sizzling sauces, like Steven's new Shanghai Barbecue Sauce, Lemon Brown Sugar Barbecue Sauce, and Red Eye Barbecue Sauce--made...Read more →
The Best Japanese Grill in Los Angeles As we move into the New Year, a lot of folks are asking what the major barbecue and grilling trends will be in 2006. First, I believe ethnic grilling will continue to grow in popularity. Especially Japanese restaurants specializing in robatayaki. Ro means "hearth" and yaki means "grilled" or "grilling." Put them together and you get some of the most refined grilled meats, seafood, vegetables, even...Read more →
Short ribs, anyone? Here they sizzle on a charcoal grill at one of Steven's favorite Korean restaurants in Los Angeles, Soot Bul Jeep. Each table has a charcoal burning hibachi in the center and you get to cook your barbecue the way you like it. The rib meat is thinly sliced and marinated with soy sauce, garlic, sugar, and sesame oil. You eat it moo shi style--wrapped in lettuce leaves with grilled garlic, chili, bean paste, and rice and it's absolutely...Read more →

Homework Questions? Ask a Tutor for Answers ASAP
This is a powerpoint presentation. It needs to have a minimum of 12 slides and no more than 15 slides and that includes the title and reference.
For this assignment, assume you are a new manager who manages a organization of more than 50 employees. Using your career area of interest, determine and describe the scope of work performed by your department. Some ideas might include a sales & customer service department, a technology & IT group, a human resources department, a clinical department in a healthcare facility, or any other area functional area which interests you.
Your vice president has asked you to prepare and present to her a PowerPoint presentation that outlines what actions you will be taking and what you expect to accomplish during the first 90 days on the job. She requested that you be as specific as possible stating what activities you will be involved in related to all of the functions of management—planning, organizing, leading and controlling.
For each topic, state what you will do and do not simply describe the concept. For example, if talking about organizational structure, describe the organizational structure you will implement for your department and and let us know why this is the best structure for your situation. If talking about leadership style, describe your leadership style and what you will seek from managers or leaders in your organization.
Your PowerPoint presentation should be a minimum of 12 slides and no more than15 slides and include the following:
Title page
Planning and Goal Setting
Decision Making Process
Diversity Efforts
Organizational Structure
Human Resource Management
Leadership style
Managerial and Quality Control
Information Technology and E-Business
When developing a presentation for an audience it important your actual slide only highlight the key points of your "talking points" rather than include all the things you are going to say. There is a note section at the bottom of the slide which for this exercise you are to use.
Therefore, each slide should have a slide portion with the key highlights or talking points. Then the notes section will have a paragraph or two about what you will say when you present that particular slide. For example, my Agenda slide might have the following bullet points.
My notes section might read, "Good Day. My name isXXXXX and I look forward to sharing with you today my plans for our Human Resources department over the next 60 days. I will begin with a brief introduction, and then move on to the four managerial functions: planning, organzing, leading, and controlling. Within each area I will present specifically what actions I recommend take place during the next 60 days."
If you could help me, I would appreciate it very much. I don't normally ask for help like this, but my youngest who is 4 months old has become very demanding and my oldest is sick. Thank you for your help. I do not need it until Tuesday at the latest.
Like I said in my question, I need this by tomorrow, Tuesday. It's not due until midnight tomorrow night, but I would like to have time to go over it and add my touch to it as well.
I usually do not ask for help, but the last few days my oldest daughter has been sick and my youngest daughter has been difficult. With the two of them wanting a lot of my attention, it takes away from time I need to put into my work. I appreciate any help.
Hi I will post by midnight or sooner...
Hi Jb, I am working on this now and will post before 11 pm tues?
Hi Toneemarie
Thank you for your help. I realize this may sound like a silly question, but did I overlook the answer? The reason I ask is because in an e-mail, it said to view the answer. Some reason it shows that I accepted. I must be really tired. :)
Hi I am not able to open it. Any suggestions?

Carol Fenster's Gluten Free Pizza Crust And Pizza Sauce
Servings: 1
- *Available at health food stores or possibly on-line from Authentic Foods, Bobs Red Mill, Gluten-Free Pantry, Miss Roben's, and Ener-G Foods.
- Sauce:1. Combine all ingredients in small saucepan and bring to boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 min, while Pizza Crust is being assembled.
- Makes about 1 c..
- Crust:1. Preheat oven to 425F. In medium mixer bowl using regular beaters (not dough hooks), blend all ingredients on low speed.
- 2. Beat on high speed for 3 min. (If the mixer bounces around bowl, dough is too stiff. Add in water if necessary, one Tbsp. at a time, till dough does not resist beaters.) Dough will resemble soft bread dough.
- 3. Put mix on 12-inch pizza pan or possibly baking sheet (for thin, crispy crust), or possibly 11 x 7-inch pan (for deep-dish version) which has been coated with cooking spray. Liberally sprinkle rice flour onto dough, then press dough into pan, continuing to sprinkle dough with flour to prevent sticking to your hands. Make edges thicker to hold the toppings.
- 4. Bake pizza crust for 10 min. Remove from oven. Top Pizza Crust with sauce and your preferred toppings. Bake another 20-25 min or possibly till top is nicely browned.
- Serves 6 (1 slice per serving).
- This pizza garners national accolades because it's so similar to the real thing. Freeze the partially baked crusts (after first 10 min of baking) and you'll always be prepared. Pizza

Well worth a visit
Just had a 2 day stay at the Sorbietrees B&B and the reviews they have received are fully justified and you will not be disappointed.
Very easy to find thanks to Sandys directions....in a fantastically quiet/semi remote area. 5 minute drive or 40 minute walk to Newcastleton where you will find The Grapes and the Liddesdale .....perfect for your evening meals. At the Sorbietrees, John and Sandy are the perfect hosts, they cant do enough for you.....from handing you maps and tips about walks, cycling and horse trails, to ideas about what to do in the area. The room was clean and warm with all the usual amenities, the bathroom was seperate, across the hallway, but this was not an issue.....and they even supply all the bubble baths and dressing gowns!!!. Breakfast was fantastic and plentiful......you will not need lunch. There was an extra unique plus point in that the guests share a large breakfast table, an ideal way to get to know the other guests and so adding to the friendly atmosphere. Kielder Forest is just 20 miles away and if you get a soaking like we did, you can hang all your wet gear in the boiler room and go and sit in the front room with the log burner on. All in all The Sorbietrees was like a home from home and John and Sandy as I said before, were the perfect hosts, we will definately stay here again
