title: Python: convert some encoding to russian alphabet
body: <p>I have list with unicode</p>
  
  <pre><code>lst = [u'\xd0\xbe', u'/', u'\xd0\xb8', u'\xd1\x81', u'\xd0\xb2', u'\xd0\xba', u'\xd1\x8f', u'\xd1\x83', u'\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb0', u'____', u'|', u'\xd0\xbf\xd0\xbe', u'11', u'search', u'\xd0\xbe\xd1\x82', u'**modis**', u'15', u'\xd0\xa1', u'**avito**', u'\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb5', u'[\xd0\xa1\xd0\xbe\xd1\x85\xd1\x80\xd0\xb0\xd0\xbd\xd1\x91\xd0\xbd\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb0\xd1\x8f', u'\xd0\x92', u'\xd0\xb5\xd1\x89\xd1\x91', u'kid', u'google', u'\xd0\xbb\xd0\xb8', u'13', u'**\xd0\xb0\xd0\xb2\xd0\xb8\xd1\x82\xd0\xbe**', u'[\xd0\x9f\xd0\xbe\xd0\xba\xd0\xb0\xd0\xb7\xd0\xb0\xd1\x82\xd1\x8c', u'\xd0\x9f\xd0\xbe\xd0\xb6\xd0\xb0\xd0\xbb\xd0\xbe\xd0\xb2\xd0\xb0\xd1\x82\xd1\x8c\xd1\x81\xd1\x8f', u'\xd0\x9e', u'&amp;parent-', u'\xd0\xaf\xd0\xbd\xd0\xb4\xd0\xb5\xd0\xba\xd1\x81', u'###', u'**avito**.', u'**kiddieland**', u'\xd0\xbc\xd0\xb0\xd0\xb3\xd0\xb0\xd0\xb7\xd0\xb8\xd0\xbd', u'45', u'click2.yandex.ru/redir', u'72']
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I try to convert some like <code>u'\xd0\xbe'</code> to russian.
  I tried to use 2 and 3 python, but I can't do that.
  I use IDE Pycharm and in settings I have default utf-8. 
  When I print that with</p>
  
  <pre><code>for elem in lst:
      print (elem)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it returns me <code>Ð¾</code> for the first elem. When I try <code>print (elem.encode('cp1252'))</code>  it returns <code>b'\xd0\xbe'</code>
  When I use <code>chardet.detect</code> it returns me, that it's <code>utf-8</code>.
  Can anybody explain to me, how can I convert it to russian alphabet and why ways, that I use doesn't fit to get it.</p>
