Dude, Your Dad is Weird

To premiere our new video section, here's a Russian video-reportage about policeman Eugene who's been raising his daughters to perform dangerous stunts, lovingly subtitled by RUSSIA! Watch the circus-man without a circus as he throws darts at his daughters, has them walk on swords and broken glass, and assaults them fire and daggers. It's kind of sweet, actually.

The fabled communal apartment, or kommunalka, is seeing its dying days in Moscow. Last year alone brought the liquidation of 3,000 communal apartments, with dwellers dispatched to private apartments by government initiative. By 2014, in the midst of the financial crisis, the Russian government promises to fund an additional two-stage breakup of communal apartments in the city center. For comparison, 1997 data showed 151,000 functioning kommunalkas in Moscow; this year that number is 58,000.
