It’s a busy day for me today, so my Poutine research is put on hold until I take care of some client work first. Some of my hunches are panning out and some aren’t. Anyways, If you like me and burdened by things like science and facts a…
Well folks, this is the third time at bat for this kid here on Perspective on Canada, but the story continues to make waves, so we continue to report it! Like I said a few days ago the Perspective Research department found out that the T-Shirt is not really the point in this story, but [...]

Stephanie Pappas, LiveScience Senior Writer A hoax or a miracle? The Shroud of Turin has inspired this question for centuries.
