...begin to wind down here, FlyBy would be remiss if it didn't mention a couple of its favorites. Quincy has been fairly low-key, outside of the distinctive color of their shirts. In this scene, they were in the process of getting outclassed by the Lowellians standing next to them. Fear not, though, you'll be getting a taste of that Master's Residence later today...
Most of the exorcisms that Father Gary witnesses are fairly low-key. What happens during the dramatic ones? If an exorcist sees 100 people, there are only going to be 2 or 3 that are dramatic. And I would characterize those as being when the person actually speaks to the exorcist. Quite often they'll be burping or belching or coughing or yawning. There's moaning and screaming too.

Nonetheless, “The Century...
Gates, the U.S.'s 22nd Defense Secretary, has declared a low-key war against the military services and the way they develop and buy the weapons they use to defend the nation. Up until now, he has done that mostly by jawboning: The U.S. can't "eliminate national-security risks through higher defense budgets, to do everything and buy everything," Gates says in the latest issue of Foreign Affairs. That futile quest has led to weapons that "have grown ever more baroque, have become ever more costly, are taking longer to build and are being fielded in ever dwindling quantities...
