I was all set to bring you some well-researched facts about for today's piece before my boss told me that the average weight of a female lightweight rower is 57kg.

Now while I'm usually one to listen to his guidance, I thought that this was a little too tenuous a link, even for my liking.

But, with little else connecting the Olympics with the number 57, I was on the verge of unearthing some rowing facts before those good people at the Beijing Olympic Committee saved us all, sort of.

Earlier this month, it published the "Legal Guidelines for Foreigners Entering, Exiting and Staying in China during the Olympics" and guess how many questions and answers it contains?

Helpfully, the 57 questions, which are designed to help foreigners understand and abide by Chinese laws, were only posted on the Beijing Olympic Games website in .

Thankfully, elsewhere to reveal information on entering and exiting the country, spectatorship at events, travel, accommodation, transportation, food and beverage and entertainment.

Most of the questions and answers are common sense, such as the basic rights for foreigners in China and the visa requirements.

However, it also reveals that people suffering from mental disorders or insanity will not be allowed to enter the country.

And you are not allowed to take in items which may harm China's political affairs, economy, culture, or morals, such as publications, undeveloped film, pictures, recordings (music), movies, cassette tapes, videotapes, laser discs, or computers.

But you can take your dog, or one packet of your favourite food for every day you are there.

What do you make of the rules and regulations?
