The Shroud of Turin was not faked and could possibly be real, according to Italian researchers using 21st century technology to scientifically test the alleged burial cloth of Jesus Christ . Experts at Italy’s National Agency for New Technologies, Energy and Sustainable Development have concluded that the purported burial cloth of Jesus Christ could not have been faked . The government agency’s report officially proclaims: “The double image of a scourged and crucified man, barely visible on the linen cloth of the Shroud of Turin, has many physical and chemical characteristics that are so particular that the staining, which is identical in all its facets, would be impossible to obtain today in a laboratory.” The Italian government scientific agency concluded that the post-crucifixion burial cloth could not have been technologically manipulated in Medieval times, as has been theorized in the past by skeptics screaming “Fake!” as believers were yelling “Real!” “The most advanced technology available today is unable to replicate all the characteristics of the Shroud image,” declared head researcher Paolo Di Lazzaro .

“Till the World Ends” is a 2011 apocalyptic Los Angeles-themed electronic dance song by L.A. pop icon Britney Spears . A smash single from Britney Spears’ multi-platinum album Femme Fatale , “Till the World Ends” was written by Dr. Luke , Max Martin , Kesha and Alexander Kronlund . “Till the World Ends” is an electropop song which accompanies an award-winning music video set in Downtown Los Angeles on December 21, 2012 — the highly speculated date of the “end of the world.” The video for “Till the World Ends” puts L.A., the most famous city of disasters, up against 12-21-12, the most famous disaster date. Replete with subliminal symbolism, the video features Britney Spears as the embodiment of Isis , the Queen of Angels, the goddess for which Los Angeles was named. A culmination of all California blonde goddesses who came before, Britney Spears dances, teases and commands a Technicolor spectacle of hedonistic defiance in the face of looming disaster and impending destruction. As a devastating earthquake meets an obliterating comet in the universal City of Icons , earth meets sky in a symphony of apocalyptic judgment as Britney Spears, the living proxy of Barbie , the world’s most celebrated graven image, gyrates in a trance amid leather-clad dancers. In an underground chamber, beneath the highrise buildings of Los Angeles, the blonde goddess dances hypnotically while tossing her golden mane in a nod to California’s warrior goddess Minerva , who is said to have invented music after striking her rival, Medusa , with a head full of snakes out of jealousy. With the video’s center stage placed before a wall of brightly illuminated gold 33-1/3 rpm albums, the visual symbolism is complete in its allusion to California as victor over destruction and death — as Britney, 30, wildly shakes those snakes. At the video’s conclusion, Britney Spears emerges from under the earth as the unscathed and victorious goddess rising up to be kissed by the California sun. Repeated viewings of the video will reveal additional archetypes purposely not mentioned in this article. One of the most enjoyable dance songs about California , “Till the World Ends” is complicated in its deceptive simplicity — and one of Britney Spears ‘ most ironic achievements as an artist.
