Shoreline zoning delays show loss of local control in Maine towns
York County Maine lags on mandated shoreline zoning four years after passage as half the towns miss the deadline. State rules now govern even where moratoriums once paused development, with Biddeford and Saco under state planning until ordinances are complete. Local waterways require protection from over development.

Fanfani the wolf and the crumbling Christian Democrats
In Rome Amintore Fanfani once dominated Italian politics though lacking a coherent ideology. At 67 he faces unpopularity and defeats as the Christian Democrats drop him after leadership struggles. His career shows shifting loyalties, attempts to curb communism, and a party fracturing under weight of division and loss of church support.

It notes US backing, economic hope for Egypt, and warns against full-scale war or premature final peace. Geneva talks and phased diplomacy are seen as parallel paths toward broader peace.
