The history of embalming - start with Egyptians (or further back) - you know, mummies, canopic jars, and the like - move to modern times - go to a local funeral home and ask for a tour (I'm totally serious - they don't get serious enquiries often, so they will usually comply if they know you are serious).\nOr if your goal is to WIN the science fair, go with something in the psychology area (left brain/right brain differences maybe)- questionnaires, skills tests, and such.  You can enlist your family's help with all the "field work," and since very few people enter in this category, you're a likely winner!

Wow.  The one you may be thinking of is at the SFMOMA (Museum of Modern Art, on Third Street (near Yerba Buena Gardens)  called "A Disaster in Pictures".  But keep your eyes peeled for more as April approaches...

Not yet, but I SERIOUSLY want to go!!! I think there may be one in Cardiff next year, which is relatively near me, so I'm going there like a shot. Their music is great.

In Singapore - the Chinese lay out the body of their loved one in a coffin and place it in the voids under the high rise flats for several days - 3, 5 or 7 days with candles, photos and flowers.  The area is blocked off with yellow tarp - and sometimes large cloth banners with messages from other families are strung up all around the area.  Some even have coloured lights around the perimeter. It's beautiful! They have tables and chairs for many people - and it seems that a constant 'party' is taking place.  Some of them even seem to have caterers - particularly for the last night.  The body has to be injected with chemicals to stop it from spoiling in the heat and people just keep coming throughout the whole thing to pay their last respects.   On the last night, a group of musicians play very loud music to frighten the evil spirits away - but I think the funeral procession takes place the next morning.   Sometimes the musicians accompany the funeral procession as it is led away - making loud noises and walking alongside or behind the vehicle carrying the coffin. The Chinese section of the cemetery in Singapore is made up of fairly uniform raised 'tombstones' - which look a bit like short slippers similar to the ones worn by the women with bound feet.  The tombstones look as though they are tiled or patterned and  are placed close together in rows and layers on hills.  The effect is quite stunning.  In answer to your question though - I think whether or not you will ever see a Chinese funeral - will depend on how many Chinese people you come into contact with.  There are no Chinese people where I come from and I had never seen one until I lived in Singapore where there seemed to be one at least every other week.  Sometimes on the way to work - I would see two or three in process in different apartment blocks.

But if you're after Rugby League then the game of the year is on Easter Sunday where the Newcastle Knights (Ranked 2nd) take on the North Queensland Cowboys (Ranked 1st) up at Newcastle. Kick off is at 3pm - the game is basically already sold out! As for ANZAC Day, there will be an Australia vs New Zealand match and but it won't be on until 5th of May. Gotta love your rugby league! Cheers :)

Oh My My, someone is really bugged! Anyways pal the answer is that Australia is a part of the Organisation of Commonwealth countries and it bid for it and the council ( of Commonwealth) awarded the games to Melborne. By the way these games are always money spinners for the host city. So cheers!

Well it just happened so probably not for a while! This year I don't think they began announcing artists until 3-4 months before the festival, and many weren't confirmed until a few weeks before. \n\nI can't wait to see the lineup either though. I went this year for the first time and it was so much fun - I'll definitely go again next year if I can!
