...more modest Cold War levels. Defense Secretary Robert Gates took a good whack at unneeded weapons systems in last year's budget, killing the F-22 fighter and other programs of dubious merit. Unfortunately, his minions seem to believe that this one-time slice is sufficient. Ashton Carter, the Pentagon's top weapons buyer, said Feb. 17 that he believes last year's cuts mean that additional program cancellations "won't be necessary...

Though the second half of the album is clearly no match for the opening, it does contain some gems. “Running From the Cops” has Carter singing through garbling effects similar to those found on Aphex Twin songs. Though these effects can be grating, they do add some variety to the vocals in their oddity. “You Are the Ocean” is the only track with Carter on lead vocals that truly succeeds in being an emotional and catchy tune, proving he can be an effective lead singer, not just a guy playing...
