...become a habit in Vladimir Putin's Russia to splash cash on sports events, using them them to boost the nation's morale in the tradition of the Soviet Union in its heyday. And there was certainly an opportunity for crowing, just last week, when Russia's Zenit St. Petersburg won a 2-0 victory over Glasgow Rangers in the UEFA Cup Final staged in Manchester. That trophy may be a lesser tournament than the Champion's League, but that didn't stop both Prime Minister Putin and his President-consort Dmitri Medvedev from celebrating Zenit...

Beer bottles, wine boxes, cigarette cartons, condom wrappers, dirty clothes and dog chow pile up on the soggy carpeting. Gang tags and drug-addled poetry splash the walls in red, gold and black spray paint. The decimated kitchen counters sag beneath jugs of curdled milk and rot-encrusted dishes.
