What are Folders?
"Folders," also known as "directories," on your computer work in much the same way that file folders in the real world work. You use them to store stuff and help keep organized. Without them, your hard drive would have thousands of files just floating around on it, making it more than a little difficult to find something you're looking for.

Russia Events
Mr. Putin: Operative in the Kremlin
March 18, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Who is Vladimir Putin? Observers have described him as a "man from nowhere"—someone without a face, substance, or soul. In their new book, Mr. Putin: Operative in the Kremlin, Russia experts Fiona Hill and Clifford Gaddy argue that Putin is in fact a man of many and complex identities. Clifford Gaddy discussed the book's major themes and examined Putin as the Statist, the History Man, the Survivalist, the Outsider, the Free Marketeer, and the Case Officer. Understanding Putin's multiple dimensions is crucial for policymakers trying to decide how best to deal with Russia.
Russian Politics: The Paradox of a Weak State
March 11, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Since the public dissention after the presidential "swap" announcement and rigged elections of last year, Putin and those who rule with him are resisting change and are even less willing than before to engage in reforms and economic "modernization." Marie Mendras, Professor at the School of International Affairs, Sciences Po University, Paris examines Putinism as a system of rule in crisis—struggling against the tide, but still with considerable resources and instruments at hand.
A Muslim Weimar? Istanbul between the Wars
March 04, 2013 // 4:00pm — 5:30pm
History and Public Policy Program
One reading of modern Turkish history focuses on the country's perpetual race to catch up with Europe. In the often forgotten world of interwar Istanbul, Muslims were the powerful hosts and Europeans the unwanted migrants.
Russia: Illicit Financial Flows and the Role of the Underground Economy
March 04, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
A recent study from Global Financial Integrity (GFI), a Washington-based research and advocacy organization, found that $764.3 billion in illegal money flowed into and out of Russia since the dissolution of the Soviet Union. GFI's director, Raymond Baker, discussed the findings and significance of the report, the mechanisms by which money is laundered into and out of the country, and some policy recommendations for curtailing the problems.
Boris Rabbot and the "Shestidesiatniki:" The Forgotten Liberals of the 1960s
February 25, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Boris Rabbot, a journalist and sociologist, was in the vanguard of the pre-perestroika "shestidesiatniks," influential intellectuals and party leaders who vigorously advocated a policy of liberalization within the Soviet system. His widow, Lynn Visson, Visiting Adjunct Professor and Visiting Associate, Monterey Graduate School Institute of Translation and Interpretation, retired UN interpreter and co-compiler of "Boris Rabbot: An Unheeded Voice of the 1960s," discussed how he and the intellectuals of his generation presaged the reformers of the Gorbachev era.
Immigration Reform in Russia
February 07, 2013 // 4:00pm — 5:30pm
Kennan Institute
Russia receives the second most immigrants in the world after the United States. Due to this fact, immigration reform and the national migration concept have been the primary focus of federal migration policy debates in recent years. Olga Gulina, Law Institute, Samara and Alisa Oblezova, Perm State University will offer their views on Russian immigration law and enforcement and the national migration concept adopted in June 2012.
Russia, the Near Abroad, and the West: Lessons from the Moldova-Transnistria Conflict
February 04, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Drawing from the analysis in his newly published study of the nearest approach to a settlement in Moldova, the failed Kozak Memorandum almost a decade ago, William Hill, Professor of National Security Strategy, National War College, Washington D.C., offers some thoughts on possibilities for success in the current negotiations, and how longstanding, conflicting Russian and western perceptions and interests in the so-called "near abroad" affect both prospects for progress in Moldova and relations between Russia, the EU, and the U.S.

January 14, 2013 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Alexander Verkhovsky, Director, SOVA Center for Information and Analysis, Moscow and Reagan Fascell Democracy Fellow, National Endowment for Democracy examines the public demand for tough state response to sensitive issues in anti-extremist legislation, as illustrated with examples from current law enforcement practice.
Man as Media: Old Mass Media and the New Digital Environment in Russia and the United States
December 17, 2012 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
The third emancipation of text in human history is the emancipation of authorship. Problems of legacy media are usually explained by the development of multimedia and internet technologies. But the real disaster for old mass-media is the emancipated authorship of amateur "occasional" journalists. Fulbright-Kennan Institute Research Scholar and consultant Andrey Miroshnichenko asks, what will be the result of the competition between the professionalism of staff journalists and the cognitive surplus of guerrilla journalists? How will business models and design of content develop in Russian and American media?
Forced Labor in Modern Russia: Questions about Legal Responsibility and the Protection of Worker's Rights
December 10, 2012 // 12:00pm — 1:00pm
Kennan Institute
Prohibition of forced labor is one of the fundamental principles of labor law in Russian Federation. However, the analysis of enforcement practice shows that this principle remains declarative. The Labor Code provisions concerning individual labor disputes stipulates no specific measures to protect worker's rights in forced labor cases. Alisa Oblezova, Fulbright-Kennan Institute Research Scholar and Senior Lecturer, Labor Law and Social Security Department, Perm State University, investigates the different questions concerning employer's liability for the use of forced labor, as well as methods for the protection of workers, including migrant workers, and makes an overview of proposed amendments to current legislation.

Hungary 's commitment to cut the budget deficit hasn't removed the threat to its investment-grade debt rating because the government needs to clarify its economic policies, Standard & Poor's said. Moody's Investor Service, also mulling a downgrade, said fiscal plans will steer its decision.
Bondholders are signaling confidence in Egypt's army chief-turned president as Arab nations rally to his support, even as Standard & Poor's says it will maintain the country's near record-low rating.
Ukraine had its credit-rating outlook upgraded to stable from negative by Standard & Poor's after Russia said this month that it would provide $15 billion of aid and cheaper natural gas.
Anglo Irish Bank Corp. 's bailout may cost Ireland's government more than 35 billion euros ($47 billion), Standard & Poor's credit analyst Trevor Cullinan said, exceeding the rating company's previous estimate.
Russia sees a high probability that neighboring Ukraine will default. Standard & Poor's says that outcome is likely. Even Ukraine's acting president calls the country's plight a "pre-default situation."
Ukraine's opposition set up a clash with the ruling party over a proposed cabinet shakeup, bolstering demands for the ouster of Prime Minister Mykola Azarov after the biggest street protests in almost a decade.
Ukraine's dollar-denominated bonds rose as government officials from Europe's riskiest debtor lobbied for foreign economic support after the largest protests in Kiev in almost a decade.
France and Austria lost their top credit ratings in a string of downgrades that left Germany with the euro area's only stable AAA grade as Standard & Poor's warned that crisis-fighting efforts are still falling short.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk won "breathing space" with a four-year fiscal plan that uses as much as 36 billion zloty ($11.9 billion) of asset sales and cash management savings to defer tax increases and spending cuts.
"If we see a significant reduction in domestic conflict and violence, that would be over and above our base case and that could lead to a positive ratings change."

I heard an article about this on NPR this morning. He apparently has a fair amount of control and even feeling while the power is turned on. He talked about getting a shot in his lower back while the systems was powered up and being able to feel the pain, the pressure of the insertion, everything you'd expect a normal person to be able to feel. He joked about it being both bad and good, but you could tell he was really pleased.
The interesting thing is that they aren't, from what I understand, trying to bypass the damaged nerves, rather they're applying a continuous current to them, which seems to boost the natural ability of the nerves to receive signals. For lack of a better description (and assuming I understand what's going on, which is assuming a lot, even the doctors don't seem too clear on the details) the applied current allows the nerve signals to "jump" the cut in his nervous system.
Also for reasons I don't understand, they only use the system 2 hours or so a day, so for the majority of the time he's a normal paraplegic. That may explain why it's taking him so long to relearn things like walking and standing, though the article indicates that only gross movements may ever be possible so it could be that the signals just aren't strong enough still for fine motor control.
Actually, that's wrong. At least in cats. As proof they kept a cat's body alive, removed its brain, and put it on a treadmill. The cat was held up, but as the legs felt pressure on them, they started to run by themselves. Rather well, too, matching speed with the treadmill. The muscles and spinal cord basically play a huge role in balance and walking..it isn't 100% brain controlled.

Many of Gill's creations nod to Indian culture and design: tunics and maxi dresses feature intricate embroidery detailing, swimwear and woven jewelry pieces come in bright and bold colors, and her sumptuous wedding gowns boast jeweled bodices and elegant draping. Made of viscose, chiffon and super-soft jersey knit, Ranna Gill's womenswear feels as luxe as it looks.
Sleek jeans, strappy heels, and more, saturated in the hottest hue of the moment.
Summer's sunny days call for a new version of the classic LBD. Why not lighten things up with flattering styles in white-hot shades? Outfit yourself in easy, romantic silhouettes, from flirty crocheted drop waist numbers to gauzy silk maxi dresses, embroidered cotton tunics, and floral lace shifts, ideal for pairing with simple sandals and delicate jewelry.
Stylish sheaths, wraps, and more to wear from work until the wee hours of the night.
No need to break the bank to snag a stylish piece you'll wear again and again. Case in point: this mix of ultra-flattering dresses. From printed silk tunics to flirtatious strapless minis, we've got something for dinner parties, date nights, and weekend getaways.

More On Legal & Compliancefrom The Advisor's Professional Library
- Meeting and Exceeding Clients and Regulators' Expectations Although it can be difficult, there are ways for RIAs to meet or exceed client expectations, increase customer satisfaction, and help firms retain current clients and attract new ones.
- Registration Requirements for Investment Advisor Representatives (IARs) When individuals launch an advisory firm, they must avoid marketing themselves or the firm as investment advisors before they are properly approved and registered. Otherwise, they are subject to severe penalties.
NEW YORK (AP) — A not guilty plea has been entered on behalf of a large hedge fund charged in a criminal indictment with letting insider trading occur over a 10-year period.
The plea was entered Friday morning in Manhattan federal court by Peter Nussbaum, longtime general counsel for SAC Capital Advisors. It happened a day after the company was charged with wire and securities fraud.
A prosecutor says the evidence is "voluminous."
Stamford, Conn.-based SAC said in a statement after the charges were announced that it will continue normal operations.
It said it "has never encouraged, promoted or tolerated insider trading and takes its compliance and management obligations seriously."
The company is owned by embattled billionaire Steven A. Cohen. He has not been charged.

Hey friends! How was the rest of your Sunday? Ours was great! I got out of work at 7:00 and Matty and I headed to our friend's apartment to make dinner. It was us and three other couples so we had our work cut out for us! We made Mama Pea's Summer Succotash Quesadillas with Nacho Mmmm Sauce . These are always a crowd pleaser, especially among a crowd of less-adventurous eaters.
Afterwards, we watched "Despicable Me," which I am now obsessed with. Actually, I think I'm mostly just obsessed with Agnes. I wanted to take her home with me! " He's so fluffy, I'm gonna die! " So great.
This morning was ab-tastic! After a 30-minute warm-up on the stationary bike, I busted through a circuit that gave my bod a run for its money. The circuit is similar to one I'd incorporate into Total Body Barre, a class I teach at Mind Body Barre from time to time.

"Peace and Tranquility right in the heart of Champagne"
Our wonderful stay in Jean Michel's Gite de la Vallee made our first visit to the Champagne region memorable indeed. The location is perfectly situated between Epernay and Reims. The warm welcome by Jean-Michel was very much appreciated. It was clear from our first to the last impressions that this spacious, fully equiped and charming french cottage is being well taken care of. We can highly recommend this authentic stone walled gite if you want to submerge yourself in the peace and tranquility right in the heart of Champagne.
Thank you very much for your very good review.
I was very happy to meet you and make you happy.
See you soon.

Thank you for your review, I read carefully.
I understand your comment and the cottage has now:

A problems often arises when you have a pedal board with a bunch of crap cables and connections. This not an area to save money by buying the cheapest on the market. Reliability and quiet is worth every cent!
Although I stick with patch cables for my pedalboard, I did pick up a Planet Waves 1/4" - 1/4" Straight Adapter (Item #PW-P047A) for when I need to turn a female 1/4" jack into a male 1/4" plug, and it works great! This adapter is durable, provides a great connection, and produces no noise. The gold-plated connections also guard against the corrosion that other metals are prone to, and the double-insulated/double-shielded cables stop hum and triboelectric noise dead in its tracks! I own and use over 50 Planet Waves cables of various types for performing and recording, and they deliver an awesome signal! Planet Waves guarantees all of its adapters for life, and they're built to last a lifetime! These adapters are well-worth the investment!
These adapters are great for anyone who has a hard time with patch cables on their pedalboard. These things are the perfect length and don't leave excess cable sticking out everywhere. The gold tips really provide a great undisturbed signal. The price is unbeatable and since your getting 2 its even better.

I recently acquired a walther p99 in 40 and the trigger pull is very high. I want to lower the trigger pull to under 6lbs at least. Any gunsmithing or walther enthusiasts here that can help me or point me in the right direction? Thanks

It's a striker fire.
Part of the heavy trigger pull is that you are also "loading" the striker for a good hit on the primer.
If you lighten the striker spring, you may experience light hits. You could also create other problems.
So look at the trigger return spring. Maybe that could be lightened.
Remember that springs lose their tension with use. Maybe some range and dry-fire time?

Isn't the p99 a single/double action?

I don't need No stinking signature.
It does not have the ecock button on top of the slide? Not sure what you can do except dry fire the bejeezus out of it

Range Install
Can someone who knows wiring please check out my thread over in appliances?
Here is a link that might be useful: Range Install - Thread in Appliances
This was done by two supposed professionals who work in commercial construction for a company (10 years). "It's stricter in commercial than residential," you know. That's what they tell me when I question things. "We've built from the ground up."
Isn't it just kind of like having a surge protector sitting on the floor though? Most of my concern is about it being placed near the warming drawer as the installation documents say not to. I'm not sure why it being loose is an issue other than it's not very professional. I don't think the stove could run over it. It was a hard wire before with that big cable stacking into the compartment. I think that was normal for its time and the only way those long cables could possibly be set up. You have to be able to pull the range in and out.
But you are right, their practices are poor. I hate to think the quality of construction companies if this how they do things there. These guys have been trained very poorly through work on job sites, imo.
They are not illegals.
Neither of them are apparently electrical professionals.
From what little I can see, the installation is illegal.
I suspect there is even more than meets the eye (as I stated, the presence of the electrical tape is a red flag...why is it there?).
A surge protector is a cord connected appliance. A junction box to your house wiring is a complete different beast.
"A junction box to your house wiring is a complete different beast. "
Even the stranded wire in typical cables is not rated for movement. The stranding is far to coarse.
I have a piece of left over 4/0 wire that is as limp as a macaroni noodle.
It has over 2,000 strands of #30 wire and is rated for movement (heavy and large vibration in the case used).
I'm just trying to imagine the conversation that lead to this particular setup.
"Damn, we forgot to run the line for the stove and the drywallers are finished. I hate patching friggin drywall! Ya think the owner would notice if we just pulled the line up and left if flapping behind the stove? Oops, I snagged the insulation trying to pull it. Got any electrical tape?"
Even if you can legally tack up a wall mounted box and be code compliant, that is just substandard work. It would be like having exposed conduit running up to all your lights. Legal, sure. Acceptable in a finished kitchen, absolutely not.
When you say illegal I take it you mean not to code?
So what type of cable is used for the hardwire installations? Not this type I take it? It's original and probably was the builder's original wiring even though a hack relocated the range years back when I moved in (many, many years ago).
I'm very surprised the electrician who inspected after I moved in and found out the guy who did the work did not have an electrical license would not have checked the range hookup. That doesn't make sense.
Yeah, things were supposed to be done right for this poor little house this time around but apparently I have doh-dohs again. I had expected an outlet on the wall, asked why not, and he said it was better this way for pulling the range in and out (if I didn't mention that earlier). The good news is that the wall wasn't cut out in the wrong location to install it. Now it can be placed correctly.
My real concern was the warming drawer issue. They obviously do not pay much attention to things. Like details and safety. Or simple pride in workmanship!
Every new range will come with instructions about the allowable placement of the outlet. As long as you follow that, you'll be fine.
Personally, I wouldn't let anyone who did work like this back in my house. I'd cut my losses and find someone who cares about their reputation.
"Even if you can legally tack up a wall mounted box and be code compliant..."
If the box is otherwise code acceptable wall mounted is fine.
Hundreds (if not thousands) of dryers use a wall mounted receptacle.
