So there was some talk about there being something "dangerous" in the tap water, I wonder what could it be?

Ahead of the opening ceremony, my friends at SecureBio have sent me an assessment of the CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) threat to the Sochi Games. They assess the threat as being (spoilers!)
SUBSTANTIAL (Attack is a strong possibility)

SarutosZero posted:

Are they talking about an upcoming attack or is it just an assessment of what Russia has turned Sochi into because I'm not very sure they aren't the same thing.

Any official word on how long the opening ceremony will be? Google tells me maybe four hours like China and the UKs opening ceremonies.

An inside source has just revealed to me that the attack is likely to be a suicide bombing.

The opening ceremony at Sochi has been masked in secrecy but leaked videos of rehearsals hint at a spectacular, record-setting affair with 80 professional dancers joined by hundreds of volunteers and complex animatronic set pieces. The musical guest list is also under wraps but speculation ranges from opera singer Anna Netrebko to faux-lesbian duo Tatu. Despite the emphasis on modern Russia, some traditional aspects of the performance can be assumed. A processional of 100 she-bears will probably enter the Fisht Olympic Stadium during the ceremony. Russian President Vladimir Putin will rise from beneath the floor on a slow lift, his head bowed, before a spot light illuminates the stage and he steps forward, making the "come at me bro" gesture. Putin is expected to wrestle each bear in turn, with penetration possible. A chorus line of Soviet-era strongmen will demonstrate feats of strength including tearing tarps and bending dogs. Choreographer Daniel Ezralow has described the affair as "years of alcoholism blending seamlessly into 21st century human rights abuse."

I wouldn't be surprised if Putin orders Sochi to be bulldozed as soon as the games are over.

Do they plan to turn these into regular hotel rooms after the games? So many tiny twin beds.

I'm sure it's an automated error in the airport or whatever, but the idea of losing that much poo poo that clearly has JAMAICA WINTER OLYMPICS TEAM written on the side is p funny.

According to Wikipedia, the average male ejaculate is around 10ml.

Therefore, by my calculations, that makes for a grand total of 1000L of semen to be produced during these games. If we assume a density for semen similar to that of water, that makes a grand total of 1 metric tonne of semen.


And that's not even taking into consideration wanking and blowjobs.

Putin: Your appointment with IOC should be finalized within the week. I've already discussed the matter with the Councilor.

Bach: I take it he was agreeable?

Putin: He didn't really have a choice.

Bach: Has he been bribed?

Putin: Oh yes. Most certainly. When I mentioned we could put him on the priority list for the stadium construction, he was so willing it was almost pathetic.

Bach: These dogs... their numbers are intensifying to the point where we may not be able to contain them.

Putin: Why contain them? Let them spill over the stadiums and venues, let the bodies pile up in the streets. In the end they'll beg us to shoot them.

Bach: I've received reports of armed attacks on shipments. There's not enough pillows to go around, and the journalists are starting to get desperate.

Putin: Of course they're desperate; they can smell their deaths, and the sound they'll make rattling their tarps will serve as a warning to the rest.
