    Olympians headed to Rio de Janeiro have already been told to be cautious of the virus Zika.

    But Olympic swimmers, sailors and windsurfers will have to look out for more than that, because the city’s waters have what health experts are calling a “petri dish of pathogens,” including bacterias that cause diarrhea, vomiting and even death to those with weakened immune systems.

    “Foreign athletes will literally be swimming in human crap, and they risk getting sick from all those microorganisms,” Dr. Daniel Becker, a local pediatrician who works in poor neighborhoods, told the New York Times. “It’s sad but also worrisome.”

    Feces from a nearby sewage plant reportedly pours into the water untreated and human and animal dead bodies are found in the water with “upsetting regularity,” according to the San Francisco Chronicle.

    The government promised to clean up the waste in Guanabara Bay and the beaches surrounding Rio seven years ago, but officials admitted their efforts have fallen short. The Olympics start on Aug. 5.

    Also did my home pc and my dad's.  We'll see on 10.  Doesn't really seem any different outside of hiding menu's I use...

    Only negative thing for me is the amount of crap I have to uninstall and hide. Almost as much crap preinstalled as the OEM computers back in the XP days.
