Children watch a boy practise breakdancing in the town of Melnikovo, near the Siberian city of Tomsk, about 3500 km (2175 miles) east of Moscow, June 5, 2008. In the mid-1990s, virulent tuberculosis was killing prisoners here every week, but with the help of a group of American doctors, the jail near one of the world's biggest swamps has set an example to others worldwide dealing with drug-resistant TB.
