* The Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith recently revised its norms for handling Marian (and other) apparitions; some discussion has made it into the news by Associated Press and (with more specific details) the National Catholic Register. The primary goal seems to have been to insulate bishops from the more serious kinds of controversy that might require the Holy See to step in; the primary effect seems to be a sharp restriction on how far bishops can go in declaring apparitions genuine.
