Russian and/or Arabic IPA

Hey,

I'm looking for good resources to teach myself some Russian and/or Arabic, but I find that those silly pseudo-phonetic descriptions ("de-SCRIP-shun", etc.) confuse me and aren't terribly accurate. Does anyone know of any that have pronunciation guides in the IPA? It can be a book or a website, just anything that'll get me started.

Thanks!
