The devil's advocates
Article Abstract:
Pope Paul VI declared the canonisation process to make Pope Pius XII a saint would go ahead and gave Father Peter Gumpel and Father Paul Molinari the job of carrying out the procedures for canonisation in 1965. They both considered Eugenio Pacelli, Pope Pius XII, was a saint. Gumpel sees any challenge to his view as causing problems for Jewish and Catholic relations. But evidence has shown Pope Pius helped German Dictator Adolf Hitler gain power. Whilst his behaviour during the Jewish holocaust is still open to debate. The process of canonisation requires an independent investigator.

Accretion of low-metallicity gas by the Milky Way
Article Abstract:
Observed abundances of elements heavier than helium may require a continuous infall of gas with metallicity around 0.1 times the solar value. In the distant Universe, low-metallicity hydrogen clouds are sometimes observed near galaxies. A metallicity of 0.09 times solar is reported for a massive cloud that is falling into the disk of the Milky Way.
