Sounds like a Xinhua propaganda peice to me. The Holy See and the Communist Chinese government have not seen eye to eye on appointments of Cardinals. They (the Chinese government) appoints their own, much to the chagrin of the church. Like the official Tibetan Dali-Lama as long as they control it, all is well.

Curing Cancer With Baking Soda
by Tired of the Hypocrisy inhey gang, i got a link from a buddy of mine on how cancer can be fought off with baking soda.
i read the article and while i can't prove or disprove the claims, it seems like some reasonable information and it sure can't hurt to try it.
thought i'd share it with you all.. http://www.bamboo-delight.com/download/cure_cancer_with_baking_soda.htm.

After some searching Google assisted me in capturing the escaped survey names.
There were a couple of recent large astronomical surveys recently which turned up nothing.
2MASS - http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/2mass/overview/about2mass.html
IRAS - http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/IRASdocs/iras.html
Neither of them found a companion star of the Sun. There was another survey to be done called panSTARRS, but I think that never made it past a proposal.

What is really happening to the planet is, and I don't mean that pollution isn't bad when I say this, but climate change is a natural feature of a binary star solar system.
So, ignoring the fact that the amount of CO2, a proven greenhouse gas is increasing you choose to believe what could best be stated as an unproven hypothesis. There was a hypothesis that the Sun had a red or brown dwarf companion star that caused disturbances in the Oort cloud which sent comets towards the inner solar system which hit the earth periodically and caused the repeated mass extinctions. Nothing was ever mentioned of climate change due to the "Nemesis Star" as it was called. Any gravitational influence on the Earth's orbit from a star that far out would be miniscule, far less than say Jupiter, and Saturn which do change the shape (eccentricity) of Earth's orbit over time.
Despite repeated searches they've never found the Nemesis star, there is one survey currently underway or soon to be who's name escapes me at the moment that will probably be the last chance of finding any companion star of the Sun.
