Frank Shamrock, braceless, is your picture of the day

Brace yourselves. MMA legend and Strikeforce commentator Frank Shamrock has worn braces on his teeth for pretty much ever. They were a familiar sight to fight fans, as was the question, "When will Shamrock get those braces off?" The answer to that question is April 12, 2012.

Do you even recognize him?

Did Caravaggio meet a grisly end - with the Vatican's complicity?

Citing documents from the Vatican Secret Archives, an Italian historian argues that 17th-century documents reveal Renaissance artist Caravaggio was assassinated by the Knights of Malta.

In one of his most graphic paintings, the rabble-rousing Renaissance artist Caravaggio?depicted his tortured face on the head of Goliath, slain and decapitated by the boy warrior David.

Skip to next paragraph

An Italian historian thinks that Caravaggio may have met just such a grisly end ? at the hands of the Knights of St. John of Malta, the chivalric order founded during the Crusades.

Vincenzo Pacelli, a Caravaggio expert from the University of Naples, has unearthed documents from the Vatican Secret Archives and state archives in Rome that suggest the Knights ordered the artist to be assassinated in revenge for him attacking and wounding on one of their members during a brawl.

They then dumped his body in the sea at Palo, north of Rome, which would explain why there are no documents recording his death.

Until now, conventional wisdom said Caravaggio died either from an illness or lead poisoning from the oil paints he used.

The murder was ?commissioned and organized? by the Knights of Malta and carried out with the complicity of the Vatican, Mr. Pacelli says in his forthcoming book, "Caravaggio ? Between Art and Science."

The historian found strange discrepancies in correspondence between Cardinal Scipione Borghese, a powerful Vatican secretary of state, and Deodato Gentile, a papal ambassador, in which the painter?s place of death was cited as the island of Procida near Naples, ?a place that Caravaggio had nothing to do with,? according to Pacelli.

A document written by Caravaggio?s doctor and first biographer claimed that the painter died at the age of 38 north of Rome, but the place name was later scrubbed out and replaced by the name of a town in Tuscany.?Pacelli also found an account written 20 years after Caravaggio?s death in which an Italian archivist wrote that the artist had been ?assassinated.?

He believes it all adds up to evidence of an assassination plot by the Knights of Malta which was then covered up.

Not all experts are convinced by the new theory.?John T. Spike, a Caravaggio expert at the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, Va., is skeptical of the idea that the painter was murdered on the Knights' orders.

?The problem with the theory is that the Knights had ample opportunities to kill him sooner ? either when he was living in Malta, or when he then went to Sicily, which is very close,? says Mr. Spike. ?Why did they wait so long??

The academic sparring will continue, but more than four centuries after his death in 1610, the true fate of Caravaggio remains an enigma.

Stocks rise as investors examine jobs data

By msnbc.com news services

Stocks were higher Thursday following an unexpected rise in initial jobless claims in the latest week.

Equities were supported by a tick down in benchmark bond yields in Italy and Spain that signaled easing concern about the euro zone's debt troubles.

New U.S. claims for unemployment benefits rose last week to their highest level since January, a development that could raise fears the labor market recovery was stalling after job creation slowed in March.

"Jobless claims came in higher than expected, but it doesn't change the trend," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital, New York, citing seasonal and holiday variables for the unexpected rise in claims.

If the economic outlook does worsen U.S. policymakers are ready to deploy a third round of asset purchases, said New York Federal Reserve Bank president William Dudley.

Previous rounds of quantitative easing have been a boost for equities and other risk assets.

In other economic news, the U.S. trade deficit fell in February to the lowest point in four months as American exports rose to an all-time high and imports fell.

Italian three-year borrowing costs jumped more than one percentage point at a bond auction compared to a month ago, but 10-year yields in both Italy and Spain edged lower for the day and the euro strengthened, as concerns over the region's debt seemed to ease.

"Auctions (in Europe) have not been disastrous and that was good enough," said Art Hogan, managing director at Lazard Capital Markets in New York. "Yields are not optimal but good enough to not cause panic."

A recent spike in borrowing costs in Spain and Italy reminded investors the debt crisis in the euro zone is not under control.

Google is due to report earnings after the closing bell. The options market is expecting calm in shares of the Internet search giant after the results.

On Wednesday, U.S. stocks rose after five days of declines on the S&P 500 and the Dow industrials. An encouraging start to the earnings season contributed to the rebound, but the S&P 500 was unable to rise back above its 50-day moving average.

Reuters contributed to this report.
