Whilst Josh’s selections for this evening should keep your feet tapping, we have some more recommendations if your feet are worn out and you’re looking for something more tweedy.

• UW Historian Herbert Ellison talks about Boris Yeltsin and Russia’s Democratic Transformation at 4pm. Hearken back to a time when the only person a Russian leader was trying to poison was himself, with vodka.
• Also at 4, Princeton scholar Ato Onoma comes to town to discuss Property Rights in Postcolonial Africa.
• Architecture and Urban Planning pairs up with a local Danish foundation to present a panel on Sustainable Planning and Design in the Northwest and Denmark at 7pm.
• Speaking of the frigid north, the UW Program on the Environment and the Alaska Wilderness League bring noted Arctic photographer Subhankar Banerjee to ask the question: America’s Arctic: Is It For Sale? at 7pm.
