What do Muslims do on Christmas day to celebrate?
It's like Christmas for us. It's not our holiday to celebrate. We have our own New Year as we have a lunar calender, this means our New Year (and months) depend on the moon. So, our New Years aren't on the same day every year if you compare it to the Christian calender. In the Islamic calender they are on the same day.

Why does Russia have a double Christmas and when did the second Christmas start?
When Julius Caesar made the Julian (old) Calendar his mathematicians made errors that built up over time (currently 13 days off and growing slowly at 11 minutes a year). Many Russian Orthodox churches use the old calendar putting Christmas on the 6th of January (still the 25th on the old calendar). When Russia adopted the Gregorian (new) Calendar in the October Revolution (October 25th, 1917) some churches followed the old calendar and some followed the new calendar. So Russia doesn't have a double Christmas, just some Russians celebrate Christmas on the 25th and others on the 6th (relative to our current calendar).
