The central theme was 'The Torino Shroud'. Almost every scientist declared it a fake, except belivers. Having this thesis, they tried to prove why it is a fake. And the main theory is that the shroud was designed by Da Vinci. There are many hints to that...the way he uses his face in pictures. they discovered Da Vinci's trademarks in the shroud. Da Vinci had access and knowledge to those techniques. There are 3 theories: The shroud is the earliest photography - made with medieval techniques. The possibility is proved. The second one: the image on the shroud is in fact the result of burning. It is possible to burn the material with an iron mask/statue. -> the result is similar. The third possibility is that it is a classic picture. the image has depth. Which is impossible to make somehow else...Da Vinci knew these painting techniques, he knew about ealry photsensitive products and he knew how to use the light...

Hehe....I'm so caught in these right now, that I can't stop... Razz

Hehe....I'm so caught in these right now, that I can't stop...

wow... i had no idea what "The Shroud of Turin" was. Embarassed

so, i googled it. Smile

that's so crazy. Shocked

i can't believe no one has yet to figure out, who created this shroud. Shocked

i mean, there seems to be a million theories, but no true answer. Laughing

i looked at photos of it and it does look like a Da Vinci creation... but it sounds like scientists will not credit him, because "Because Leonardo (1452-1519) was born almost a full century after a documented appearance of the Shroud in western Europe". Suspect

Very interesting. Wink

so, after watching the documentory, who do you think created it, Alex? Very Happy

Quote :: Baskov?? Rachel, do you like him???

O Lerka, you should know I love him baaa

noooo no
don't be afraid :wink:

I don't, but probably you remember last year at UniHel's site, I listened to a "thing" of a Russian skate exhibition and Baskov was singing there Kalinka together with Evgeni and some other skaters, it sounded really funny especially when you told Kalinka is about a berry... :smile:

(I still like the song though :smile:

) and now I wanted to know how Baskov looks

Thank you dear Alex for finding this photo :<33: flower

Lana, I'm vegetarian too and we have a recipe of cornbread but it's in Dutch, so I've to translate it...or find something different....

Well, that's not the only document about the shroud. there are many hints in the "Bible" as well. There are some old documents and testimonials about this - early testimonials. It is said that Da Vinci always liked riddles and games. He loved irony and symbols. So, after hearing/reading something like "You should look for the glory of God/Jesus and not the shroud" he couldn't help himself to play a trick. He also realised that belivers will worship the shroud and what it represents, so it is possible that he wanted to deceive the whole world - people would in fact worship his work, they would worship science, instead of a miracle. I don't have enough informations about this, so obviously I'm influenced by the documentary. But I'm inclined to think that Da Vinci was capable of such a trick. I think he knew many things and it is possible to give him the credit. A little example: there are some paintings he made back then and nowadays people still can't figure out how those were made. For example, "St John" (the portrait looks very devilish...I can't see a saint there Razz

) was analysed with UV and all sorts of lights and machines. Scientist and art experts were unable to find some sketches. Every painting has more layers, sketches, some background, some lines, drawings...or at least white backround . This painting has nothing of a kind, not even some lines. -> Da Vinci's painting techniques are so complex and good that no one can copy him. They have no idea how the painintg was conceived...
So, if Leonardo wanted to do such a thing (no matter why..the reasons) I'm sure he could have, he was capable Wink

Aww... That's okay, Alex. You aren't "airy". Kisssssssssss

It would be an easy mistake to make. Wink

I remember I was very confused in Spanish. You see, "perro" means "dog" and "pero" means "but". Oh my poor head!

Someone was speaking Spanish to me and he kept saying, "Pero... blah blah blah... pero...". :kataus:

I just stood there, thinking, "Why does he keep saying 'dog'?" :blush2:

It sounds good doesn't it? Very Happy

I want to make one, but I'm leaving for Edmonton on Friday. Bravo!

So, I would have time to eat it all. Weep

I'll tell you how the corn bread turns out. Laughing

I'm sure it will be extremely yummy. :vo:

Quote :: and I didn't know you are, in our class we are with 3 out of twelfe, so we can have big discussions

That's like my class. Very Happy

I had maybe 4 or 5 vegetarians in my lit class. Wink

Sometimes, we would have big, heated discussions. Lots of the veg girls had very strong opinions on it. Razz

I've been vegetarian, since I was 12 years old, so I don't think anything of it. Embarassed

About the corn flakes...

lol!

Believe me. I can totally relate to that story. :kataus:

My father likes going to Steakhouses. Suspect

And... erm... I always have to eat mashed potatos... Razz

Because... Erm..

There's nothing else. Laughing

The first time I heard about MICROSOFT, I thought that people were talking about some MICHAEL SOFT :dying:

And about the corn bread - I've never eat it, I'm curious to taste it someday :smile:

Thank you, Rachel, for the recipe!
And now, I think, it's your turn. What do you want?

Kisses!
