From the "That's Neat" Department

Just noticed (via a facebook status update from Andrea Mrozek that Canada's Olympic Curling Team includes Kristie Moore who is 5 1/2 months pregnant. From the yahoo.sports site to which Andrea linked:

Moore found out about her pregnancy weeks before team officials invited her to join Team Canada as an alternate. When she divulged her secret, the team was more than supportive. Said team leader Cheryl Bernard, "she is young and fit. There's no reason we'll have any problems, and she'll be out there."
Barring unforeseen problems with the other four members of the team, it's unlikely Moore will see any Olympic action. During competition her role as an alternate is much like a backup quarterback in football: She'll be called on if needed. Moore has said that although she'd like to get out on the ice, doing so would mean having to play at the expense of someone else's injury.
