I'm never prouder than when an awesome photo I took gets a ton of views and comments on Flickr [1], and maybe (just maybe) a stranger subscribes to my photostream! It's a nice accomplishment for a part-time pic snapper like myself. I'm not saying I'm Annie Leibovitz in any way, but I've offered up an informative how-to or two of my own to help you take the best snapshots you can and work with what you've got.
Whether you have a digital camera, a Polaroid [2], a Lomo [3], or a sweet camera phone [4], then you've got the potential to take great photos, no experience required. Photography is for everyone, not just those who get paid to do it! Take a look at my photo how-to roundup for a refresher, or to help you take some awesome shots for the first time when you .
- DIY Photography [5]: Jump right in and get a boatload of info from everything from inspiration, to adjusting your color levels on this super-informative site.
- Looking good and feeling good [6] are two important points whether you are in front of, or behind the camera!
- But if you're strictly the front-of-camera type [7], I can give you some pointers on how to look your best, and avoid blinking [8] for perfect shots every time!
- Besides, learning how to pose like a celebrity [9] (and how to make those demanding subjects look thin [10]) is a skill everyone should know!
- Love the holidays? Not only can you learn how to make that gooey, fake blood look real on Halloween [11], but capture those shiny, happy Christmas lights [12] like a pro, too!
- Speaking of holidays, we all know how boring all those birthday photos [13] can get of you blowing out the candles, unwrapping gifts, and stuffing your face, so why not jazz it up a bit?
- For a real fun photo session next time the fam gets together on the Fourth of July [14], snap away and take some spinning photos for a cool effect [15]!
- And once the BBQs and fireworks [16] are over, save space on your memory card for some sweet shots once the sun goes down [17].

When the next phase of wide-area wireless networking rolls out, AT&T and Verizon Wireless will be using the same technology, the 100-megabit Long Term Evolution (LTE). Not surprisingly, it will be the same technology used by Verizon's GSM-flavored corporate parent, Vodafone.

New London – A jury of six in New London has convicted a Bridgeport man on most of the charges he faced in connection with the March 2012 attempted armed robbery of an 81-year-old woman in a parking garage at Mohegan Sun casino.
Winston A. Riley, 28, was convicted Thursday of attempted first-degree robbery, second-degree threatening, attempted second-degree larceny and carrying a dangerous weapon. Following the two-day trial, Riley was found not guilty of first-degree reckless endangerment.
State police said he attempted to snatch the woman's purse in the casino parking lot. The woman resisted, and Riley fled.
The case was prosecuted by Senior Assistant State's Attorney Stephen M. Carney.
Riley, held in lieu of a $99,000 cash bond, is slated for sentencing on Aug. 8 by Judge Arthur C. Hadden. He faces a maximum of 30 years in prison on the felony attempted robbery and larceny charges.

Solos With Co-Pilots
Dance is an intensely social, labor-intensive art form, except when you're a choreographer generating movement for yourself. Two's a crowd when it comes to individual style. Yet this week at the Joyce Theater's Altogether Different Festival, Peter Pucci and Margie Gillis offer solo programs midwived by longtime colleagues who know how to draw out these choreographer-performers' idiosyncratic qualities.
Pucci, whose To Begin Again plays Friday night and Saturday afternoon, is the quintessential "company man," a veteran of team sports from his youth in Baltimore. His talent was annealed in the collaborative crucible of Pilobolus, where he worked for nearly 10 years and where five or six names are likely to be affixed to a piece of choreography. He began making dances there, and struck out on his own in 1986; his troupe, Peter Pucci Plus Dancers, has played five times at the Joyce. Until Thanksgiving, he worked on the aborted Barry Manilow musical, Harmony. He's done countless industrial shows, as well as commissioned works for other troupes, ice-skaters, the Muppets, and television commercials. For this rare solo effort he's working with theater director Daniel Fish on a series of personal vignettes, to Chopin, that explore how a kid from a Baltimore housing project, contemplating a future as a gym teacher, turned into an accomplished dance artist.
"What drew me in is that it was Peter's life story," says Fish, a lean man with long hair and a beard. "I keep steering him back to those stories. Whenever we work on anything, I'm interested in it being very personal. If he has to change costumes onstage and be kind of naked, he'll just do it."
Introduced to Pucci a decade ago by lighting designer Howell Binkley, Fish has collaborated with the choreographer on productions of Shakespeare, Molière, Charles Mee, Oscar Wilde, Joe Orton, and David Rabe. "This is the mirror image of what we usually do," says Fish. "Here, I'm the sounding board for him. Peter had stories he wanted to tell. I became a sort of filter."

Pucci considered using spoken text. But Fish got a sense of the structure of the whole evening and, he says, "we made a decision to find another way to tell the stories."
In his 24-year performing career, Pucci claims never to have missed a show because of injury. "I've never stopped performing; I've just done less of it," he says. At the Joyce he shares the stage with six live musicians playing versions of Chopin nocturnes that his late mother, who was Polish, loved. He's wanted to choreograph to the nocturnes for ages; his musical director, Brent Michael Davids, arranged them for toy piano, grand piano, Wurlitzer, accordion, bouzouki, flute, and the human voice. "It's music-driven," says Pucci of To Begin Again. "I don't think I'd have attempted this as a younger man."
Margie Gillis, celebrating her 30th year as a soloist, is another creature entirely. Although she's guested with troupes in her native Canada and in New York, she's basically always worked alone, developing a reputation as a dramatic dancer; the program she'll show at the Joyce Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday brought audiences at Montreal's Place des Arts to their feet last year.
The child of Olympic skiing stars, Gillis seemed destined for a movement profession. One brother was a pro hockey player, her sister a freestyle skier, and her late brother Christopher a featured member of the Paul Taylor companyand a promising choreographerwhen he died in 1993. She has performed in her brother's work, and in pieces by Martha Clarke, but she's basically a loner. "I'm dyslexic and I do not count," she asserts. "Dancers spend an enormous amount of time with numbers. My head's got other things in it; my nervous system is busy with other things."
So to make sure that the pieces she performsincluding one by renowned neuromuscular trainer and anatomist (and sometime choreographer) Irene Dowdlook their best, she works with Daniel Jackson, her "artistic adviser." Jackson, 66 and a native of Detroit, has been a dancer, artistic director, and rehearsal director in Montreal since 1961. He had finally retired"I was in the mothballs for six months" is how he puts itwhen Gillis invited him to design a duet program for her and Peggy Smith Baker, another Canadian solo dancer.
"I've worked with dozens of choreographers, hundreds of dancers," says Jackson, whose ponytail is only slightly shorter than Gillis's legendary mane. "But this was the first time I'd worked with a choreographer-dancer." They've been together for seven years now; he rehearsed her in James Kudelka's Dracula, in which she guested with Les Grands Ballets Canadiens.
"I started out coaching her dance," says Jackson, "and realized I was making a huge mistake. I entered a place of silence which enabled me to become as much a creator as Margie is. A good coach is also the dancer. Both of us are the student, and both the teacher. It has nothing to do with how I'm going to make it better the next day. It's about the joy we share. We keep ourselves fresh. That's why I'm in this business at this age."
"Danny brings his expertise," says Gillis, "and I bring mine. There's an enormous amount of nonverbal communication that speaks volumes to both of usit's subtle, coded, entire situations implied by the tilt of a head. We each bring a wealth of experience. We generate humor, which is freeing, and we take risks. There's also a generating of love."
That love is evident as Jackson watches Gillis, a figure who might have slid off an Edwardian cameo or out of a Burne-Jones illustration, run through her solos. He sits rapt as she dances to a song by Leonard Cohen, a Bach piano sonata, a recording of tuning-fork tones calibrated to mobilize a frozen shoulder.
Just when dancers' maturity crests, their bodies often begin to fail. The challenge is to keep a brilliant expressiveness alive on stage. Gillis dislocated her arm a couple of years ago, and while recuperating stepped into a rabbit hole in Scotland and broke her ankle. "Particularly with solo dancing, if you're going to survive, you have to be keenly interested in health," she says.
For Gillis, the psychology of a piece determines the architecture and method of creation. "If a piece is dreamlike, the process might be circular," she says. "Or it might be unwieldy. The inner landscapethe vision, if you willcreates the method."
How did working with Jackson change her process?
"I was suddenly in a room with someone else who had a similar desire for health, love, risk taking," says Gillis. "When I was younger, it was appropriate to be wild, savage. Now the question is, how can I manipulate energy? There are dances you can't do as a young person that I can do now. I'm interested in how my personal life can be a window to compassion, to a connection at a human level. The theater's natural place is catharsis, transformation, renewal. That's my business and my passion."
As to her future with Jackson, all options are open. Says Gillis, "We're not a recipe for anyone else, but we feel grateful to share it. We feel free to give in a very profound way."

Six Florida History Myths That Won't Die: Everglades Suicide, Al Capone and Castro's House
Yes, Ponce de Leon is an asshole. But does he matter? |
Last week, T. D. Allman sent Florida the worst birthday card ever. The author's widely shared column in the New York Times trashed Ponce de León and bemoaned celebrations of his "purported discovery" of the peninsula in 1513 as a "fiesta of illusion." OK, so Ponce was a racist, imperialist dunderhead. But he's OUR racist, imperialist dunderhead. And what's more, Allman was wrong in arguing that Ponce didn't achieve anything, says Dr. Paul George, professor of history at Miami Dade College.
"He did open the gates to the colonization of Florida," George says. "He documented his voyage, which whetted the appetite of other Spaniards to go after gold in Florida. That is significant." That's not to say there aren't some other historical myths worth busting on Florida's 500th birthday, though. Riptide asked George to share his favorites.
How did Disston die?
via Florida Memory Archives
Everglades Suicide
For decades, Floridians have whispered about Hamilton Disston's cautionary tale. Disston, a 19th-century industrialist, became obsessed with draining the Glades to create farmland. So obsessed, the tale went, that when his last attempt failed, he slit his wrists in a bathtub. Dramatic! Also, false. "He died of natural causes," George says. Obituaries from the time make it clear that heart disease likely killed the pioneer.

Miami Beach's Anti-Semitic Signs
In the dark days of Miami Beach racism, blacks were forbidden from the sand, and Jews were barred from hotels. Ask any Beach old-timer how bad the intolerance was and they'll mention businesses posting "No Dogs or Jews" signs. It's a powerful, and probably incorrect, yarn. "There was blatant discrimination," says George, including hotels with "Gentiles Only" signs. But as for the "dogs" sign of lore, "I've never found any documentation of those signs."

Jane Andrews, the former dresser of the Duchess of York who was jailed for the murder of her lover, was in a critical condition last night after a suspected overdose.
Andrews, 36, was taken to hospital after she was found unconscious in her cell at Bullwood Hall prison in Hockley, Essex, yesterday morning.
Andrews, who lost an appeal against her life sentence last month, remained in intensive care last night without having regained consciousness.
Doctors were examining the possibility she may have taken an overdose after possibly stockpiling a quantity of her daily medication, which included anti-depressants and sleeping tablets.
Andrews was jailed for life two years ago after being found guilty of murdering Thomas Cressman, 39, in their home in Fulham, west London.
Last month, her lawyers sought permission to bring new evidence to the court of appeal claiming to show she was suffering from borderline personality disorder due to sexual abuse as a child.
However, Lord Justice Kennedy rejected those grounds for appeal and declined their application to receive the new evidence.
As a result, Andrews reportedly become increasingly depressed in the aftermath of the hearing, according to Julie Bindel, of the support group Women For Justice.

Sometimes Philip used to be bracketed with spin-doctors, and criticised as a master of the darker arts of election campaigning. The truth is that he was the exact opposite. If today's politicians, journalists and, er, pollsters wish to pay his life proper tribute, it would be to speak as truthfully and candidly as he always did.

The Fourteenth Annual Child Memorial, designed to remember the ten Lucas County children who died as a result of abuse and neglect in 2012, and 11-year-old Andrew Hassler, killed by his mother in Toledo, Ohio on April 19, 2013.

An 11-year-old boy hanged by his mother was "probably sedated" before he died, according to the Lucas County Coroner's Office.
Andrew Hassler and his mother, Kim Hassler, 48, were found dead April 15, both hanged inside a Point Place garage. A toxicology report that was released Friday shows that both had diphenhydramine, an antihistamine, in their systems when they died.
The ruling calls the Hassler youth's death a homicide and his mother's death a suicide.

There are four T1 lines coming into the VloggerCon building, which is why there's good bandwidth. Remember, this is a video blogging conference.
Rex Hammock on John Dvorak: "He's a troll."
The Dvorak video has been Slashdotted and Dug.

I just met a radio guy named John Hammond, who is also a famous pianist. He has a radio show on 1550 AM in SF, but he lives in New York. Grew up in Berkeley on Euclid Ave.
Apparently the invites to Foo Camp are going out. Someone just asked me what I think of it. Here's what I think — there's a big difference between a chaotic disorganized event like VloggerCon, that's open to everyone; and an invite-only event where only people who don't offend a couple of control oriented people. This one is noisy and creative. People at Foo Camp waste a ton of energy congratulating each other that they got the invite. But nothing useful actually comes out of the invite-only event, because the most creative people aren't there. It's practically algorithmic.
I'm at the back of the main ballroom at VloggerCon in SF. If you're here, the people on stage are asking the audience for questions after they did presentations. Folks, that is not an unconference. Please. No audience, and don't ask questions, say things, tell stories. Most of the smarts are in the room not on the stage. If you're here come by and say hello. I'm wearing a black hat and a black polo shirt. And geez, people are lining up at a microphone and making speeches. There should be a session here about what an unconference is. Maybe we need to do one of those at BloggerCon. (And there's a dull roar from the hallway conversation.)
Pictures from last night's Vloggercon party.

Download the Dvorak movie via BitTorrent. My server was getting slammed, this method is so much more rational.
I don't think I've ever seen a torrent with this many seeds.
I got a report from Jeff Powell that he is having trouble downloading the Dvorak movie via BitTorrent. I see a lot of people are successfully downloading it, and I was able to myself (using Azureus on a Mac). If you have any clues, please post a comment here. (However, there's not much I can change because Amazon is hosting the Torrent.)

Fresh Kills' Facile Morality Tale Offers Cheap Laughs
A play featuring a secret Internet tryst in an old pickup truck—parked in Staten Island's favorite landfill, no less—promises some compelling seediness, if nothing else. So why does Fresh Kills ultimately come off so wholesome? Part gritty social realism, part community theater–level comedy, Elyzabeth Gregory Wilder's script struggles to find a tone befitting its potentially transgressive material. Eddie—a married middle-aged blue-collar dad—trolls the Net for teenage boys, one of whom, Arnold, pursues him for an extended relationship. But instead of probing the demons that fuel Eddie's recklessness, Wilder seems more interested in rigging sensational and farcical plot twists, especially when Eddie's oblivious wife takes a maternal liking to Arnold.
Director Isaac Byrne skillfully stages the proceedings in and around a lifesize Mitsubishi Mighty Max (crammed into 59E59's smallest space), but an overly breezy atmosphere encourages more cheap laughs than unsettling insight. Todd Flaherty brings welcome electricity to the feral Arnold, while Robert Funaro's nice-guy persona doesn't add any layers to the script's already slim portraiture of Eddie. Fresh Kills's contemporary working-class milieu may be appealing, but it's ultimately only incidental backdrop, and Wilder's clumsy, pseudo-tragic climax reveals the play for the facile morality tale it is.

5 standard matzohs
1 cup Horizon Organic unsalted butter
3/4 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
Pinch salt
2 cups chocolate chips
2 cups chopped pecans, lightly toasted
Preheat oven to 400°F. Line an 11" x 17" jellyroll pan with foil then grease the foil with butter.
Arrange the matzohs in a single layer covering the entire bottom of the jelly roll pan. (You will need to break some of the matzohs to make them fit. Break them into as few pieces as possible to create a single, even layer.)
Place the butter and brown sugar together in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring often, until the butter melts completely. Increase heat to high and bring the mixture to a boil. Boil undisturbed for 3 minutes. Immediately pour the hot sugar mixture over the matzohs, spreading it if needed to cover the matzohs completely. Bake for five minutes until the whole surface of the pan is bubbly.
Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with chocolate chips. Let stand for about five minutes to allow the chips to melt. Use a small knife or spatula to spread the melted chips into an even coating of chocolate. Sprinkle pecans over the top, pressing them gently to help them adhere.
Allow the toffee crunch to cool to room temperature then refrigerate until the entire pan is well chilled. Break into chunks.
Matzoh Toffee Crunch can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or frozen for up to 1 month.

Brisketlab: A Smoked Meat Co-Op
Brisket: It's a staple on the Shabbat table and on the picnic tables of barbecue joints in the South. And self-proclaimed "Czar of Street Food," Daniel Delaney is bringing it to New York City in a big way.
Delaney, 26, is the founder of Brisketlab, an "underground smoked meat guild" that will distribute pounds of barbecued brisket to its members this summer, with a side of booze and music. As a food writer and barbecue acolyte, Delaney was frustrated by the lack of craft barbecue experimentation in New York. So he bought an 18-foot-long smoker off a friend of his in Texas, hitched it to a trailer, and brought it back North with a truckload of indigenous Texas oak, what Delaney calls "the Rolls Royce of wood."
"I've been cooking barbecue for a number of years, so I'm not completely green to it," Delaney explained. "It's easy to get to 95% good, but that last 5% is a marathon." Batch by batch, Delaney plans on adjusting his technique to achieve brisket perfection. "With a lot of cookery, the final product is determined by the ingredients. But in brisket the ingredients are set: Beef, salt, pepper, and smoke. What's interesting about brisket is it's the minute changes and adjustments that make a real difference, like the positioning of your firewood and the length of your chimney."
But smoking meat, like stewing up a batch of gumbo (or matzo ball soup), doesn't work that well for a small group. You have to share. So Delaney dreamed up Brisketlab, in which brisket-lovers reserve meat by the pound and then pick it up at one of Delaney's top-secret meat parties. Delaney's smoking will take place in an undisclosed location. Within 48 hours of opening up Brisketlab's registration, all 2,500 pounds of meat, at $25 a pound, had already been claimed.
"It took on a life of its own. I figured that we would have about 300 people, but we got 4,300 who pre-registered in eight days." Delaney said. The guild's members will get to sample the various incarnations of brisket at around ten parties, scattered around Brooklyn and Manhattan beginning this summer. Members can secure a portion of their meat allotment by the half-pound at any of the events, along with a slew of condiments. Delaney will collect feedback and lead discussions on brisket so everyone can "geek out about meat" together.
Why brisket? Delaney loves a challenge. "It's the hardest meat to cook, and I think it's the best protein for barbecue. Texas barbeque and brisket go together like Lucy and Ricky," Delaney said. "And when it's cooked properly, it's an amazing piece of meat — fatty and flavorful. It's getting it right that's the hard part."

June 4th, 2012, 10:20 am by JANIS CARR, OCREGISTER.COMPau Gasol, the Lakers' perennial good guy, will receive the first Kia Community Assist Award on Monday for his work with Children's Hospital of Los Angeles.

Kia will present the Lakers power forward with will the David Robinson Plaque that bears the inscription, "Following the standard set by NBA Legend David Robinson who improved the community piece by piece."

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus There is a great program with the local reservation where they have a satellite school. This is the program I am in, it promotes a sense of pride in culture.
What to do for fun I don't know. I just do my work and go home.
Food and Dining I am taking my classes at one of the satellite programs, I don't know about the food they offer.
Dorm Life They do not have dorms, you must find your own housing. There are apartments across from campus though.
Academic Rigor They hold the same standards but allow assistance if you need it.
Tips for prospective students Ask questions that apply to your needs, you should find out if they have the same class you want or need at a time that is convenient. Ask for help, it's there for you.
In three sentences Central Lakes College-Brainerd has that small school feel with the multicultural diversity of a much larger school. I like the fact that they have many options of places to take classes, you aren't tethered to the main campus, but rather can find classes that suit you closer to home.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus I really like the bean bag area in the library for reading.
Bang for the buck Cheapest community college in the state, as far as I know. They also don't have an instate and out of state tuition difference. Warning: It is more expensive to take classes online.
What to do for fun Going to the Raiders games (for all sports) can be fun, if they are home games. I also really like Cultural Thursdays and the Frisbee Golf Club.
Food and Dining There is not much available here for food, I always pack my lunches so that I can stay and do homework in the library. Breakfast is a popular thing to eat here, but nothing else.
Academic Rigor My high school was bigger than this college, and the work load in high school was much harder for me than it is here.
Tips for prospective students Be persistent about communicating with administration. They will not help you unless you demand it.
In three sentences This is a commuter, non-traditional, campus. If you are looking for the college experience it is not here. Lots of PSEO students, and mature students. Most of the students know each other from high school and are not welcoming to new friends.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The campus is very safe.
Clubs and Activities There are a variety of clubs on campus, but the wide dispersement of students (from all over the Brainerd Lakes Area), makes some of them smaller than they should be. CLC offers some activities as well, but communication of these events is not always great.
Great for these types of students Non-traditional students will find a variety of class schedules and programs to help them find a new career. They also offer PSEO, which makes it a great choice for High School students (Juniors and Seniors).
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus The Cube is an interesting lounge area on the second floor.
Bang for the buck The AA degree provides a fantastic degree that is 100% transferrable in the MNSCU system, and even to many surrounding states' colleges and universities as well. Other degrees can transfer easily as well, although obscure ones may be less useful.
What to do for fun Frisbee golf, some concerts and shows, and clubs provide a variety of opportunities on campus.
Food and Dining While the campus has a variety of vending machines and an on-campus cafeteria, prices are high and service isn't that great. I suggest bringing your own food, unless you want to spend the extra money.
Dorm Life No dorms.
Academic Rigor Academic rigor varies greatly depending on instructor, classes, and the program. Check with the instructor and previous students to determine how hard it will be. There are some classes that are an easy A, and others that will challenge you. Something for everyone.
Tips for prospective students Apply and register for classes early. Many fill up quickly. Even if you are late, get on the waiting list, as many people drop classes leading up to class time, and even in the first week of classes.
In three sentences CLC is conveniently located, offers a variety of useful programs and class schedules, and has some faculty that is interested in your success, although not all are. It is an excellent place to begin a transfer to a new career, or prepare for transfer to a 4-year college.

Categories Comments Campus Safety there are security guards roaming around. the cafeteria staff seem to have a good handle on sanitation and there are drills and procedures set in place and practiced and the staff knows what to do. there is safety equipment easily accessed throughout the labs and school. harassment does not seem to be an issue either. i have never felt unsafe there.
Greek Life i don't know what to say about this.
Clubs and Activities there are clubs for everything! if you don't find a club you want to join you can always start one too. i've never been in one of the clubs but i have heard good things.
Great for these types of students students on a tight budget can usually afford to attend here. students who want small class sizes and good disability services also could attend here.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus there are many places to study in the sun or a computer commons or a hallway or the library. you can always find plants everywhere, there are even 15 foot cactuses near the cafeteria.
Bang for the buck the tuition is not high! books are the most difficult thing to pay for and financial aid is available.
What to do for fun there are pool tables and computers available at all times during regular hours. there are ski trips and snowboard trips lined up. there are various tournaments every month ranging from call of duty tourneys to volleyball and basketball. there are also international trips available to sign up for and there is a weight room for students to use and a gym, a track and a football field. if you are looking for something to do with the college there is something you can find to fill your spare time.
Food and Dining the cafeteria has okay food. i have never had gross food there but the variety is not close to what you might expect of a college. there are several choices but not many. this is due to its small size as a college.
Dorm Life i do not live in a dorm myself but i have been in them and they are not too impressive. they range from nice and pretty clean to dirty and old.
Academic Rigor this school is not particularly difficult academically. there are certain classes that are very tough to pass but they are for professional workers and it is very necissary.
Tips for prospective students get you financial aid applications in early, otherwise they will take a long time to process them. if you take online classes there you need to communicate with the professors regularly and honestly or you may not succeed. also, use the printing account you have at the school, that way you don't use your own ink and paper up and you already paid for it wether you use it or not anyways.
In three sentences central lakes college is a relatively inexpensive college. the professors there is generally very easy to work with and the class sizes are small. i enjoy going to school there and i like the smaller classes because i can have one on one contact with the instructors.

Description |
7.62mm automatic. Medium recoil. Stick it to the man with the premiere choice amongst entrepreneurs and thugs alike. Simple design, high reliability, low cost, and so popular it is part of a national flag – the AK was built to heist.
The AK is similar in performance to the AMCAR-4, with the initial magazine capacity being the same, and with comparable damage per shot. The AK, however, has a higher rate of fire and can be upgraded for more damage, at the cost of higher recoil. The weapon excels at both close and medium range, with the ability to take down a Heavy SWAT in four shots to the body without damage upgrades, three shots at damage increase III, and two at damage increase IV.
The AK is an effective anti-special unit weapon, especially at close range. Its high damage output can break a Bulldozer's visor in a matter of seconds when close enough, and can kill a Taser with the bursts fired off when the wielder is being electrocuted.
The weapon does have some distinct drawbacks, however. With the AK's high rate of fire comes severe recoil, which can make hitting targets at long range challenging. Firing in short bursts at targets at medium range can help your effectiveness with the weapon, as fully automatic fire will drag your crosshair away from your targets. Also, the AK suffers from an especially slow reload speed when empty.

Detective Gadget Beat any heist using the STRYK Pistol, AK Rifle, GL40 Grenade Launcher, Toolkit upgrade, Sentry Gun equipment and Big Game Hunters crew bonus. To complete this challenge, you will have to have played the heist from the start. |
- The AK is based on the AKM and features parts from several different models and derivatives of itself. Most notably it has the magazine of a 5.56mm Type 84 and muzzle brake of the 5.45mm AK-74. The upgrades for the AK includes a reflex sight appears to be based on an amalgam of a BelOMO PK-04 and a Nantong Fortune SP-4-1, and a lightweight body which includes a polymer handguard and skeletal stock.
- It is strange how the lightweight frame of the AK would reduce the amount of recoil per shot when it makes the weapon lighter and harder to weigh down.
- The upgrade tree image shows the AK in a left-handed configuration. Oddly, it is wielded right-handed by Hoxton in the same image.
- The dry reload is different from the mid-magazine reload, being significantly longer and more complex: the player character grips the AK by its handguard, flicks out and replaces the old magazine with a fresh one then pull on the charging handle, with quite a bit of needless juggling in between.
- Despite the player not hitting the release paddle during the reload, the old magazine still flies out.
- The AK can be seen in the No Mercy trailer before its official debut, being held by Chains roughly a minute into the video.

- 1 cup dried kidney beans, picked over and rinsed
- 1 cup dried pinto or rattlesnake beans, picked over and rinsed
- 1 cup dried black beans, picked over and rinsed
- Two 1-pound smoked ham hocks or 1/2 pound lean double-smoked slab bacon cut into 2 pieces
- 3 quarts water
- 6 cups chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth
- 3 medium ancho chiles, stemmed and seeded
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 large onions, chopped
- 4 large jalapeños, seeded and chopped
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 cup butter cracker crumbs
- 1/4 pound extra-sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
- Lime wedges, for serving
In a large bowl, soak the kidney and pinto beans in cold water overnight. Soak the black beans overnight in another bowl.
Drain the two bowls of beans separately and transfer each batch to a large saucepan. Add 1 ham hock or piece of bacon to each saucepan. Add 2 quarts of the water and 4 cups of the chicken stock to the pinto and kidney beans. Add the remaining 1 quart of water and 2 cups of chicken stock to the black beans.
Bring the beans in the saucepans to a boil, then cover partially and cook over low heat until they are almost tender, about 1 hour for the kidney and pinto beans and 35 minutes for the black beans. Drain the beans; reserve the kidney and pinto bean cooking liquid. Discard the black bean cooking liquid.
Remove the meat from the ham hocks and shred; reserve the ham hock fat and 1 bone. If using bacon, trim the fat and cut the meat into pieces. Reserve the bacon fat.
Heat a medium cast-iron skillet. Add the ancho chiles and toast, pressing down with a spatula until they are fragrant and blistered, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a heatproof bowl, cover with boiling water and soak until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain and finely chop.
In a large, enameled cast-iron casserole, cook the ham hock fat or bacon fat in the vegetable oil over moderately high heat until the fat is crisp, about 5 minutes. Discard the fat. Add the onions, jalapeños, garlic and ancho chiles and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 8 minutes. Add the reserved ham or bacon meat and cook, stirring until golden, about 3 minutes. Add the barbecue sauce, tomato paste, the reserved ham hock bone and all of the drained beans. Stir in 4 cups of the reserved bean cooking liquid and season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook over moderately low heat, until the beans are tender and the gravy is thick, about 1 1/2 hours longer; add more of the bean cooking liquid if the beans seem dry. Discard the ham hock bone and transfer the beans to a large shallow baking dish or individual crocks.
Preheat the oven to 425°. In a medium bowl, toss the cracker crumbs with the cheese. Sprinkle the mixture over the beans. Bake the gratin for about 25 minutes, or until bubbling and golden. Serve with lime wedges.
