...time with some soothing guitar distortion. And the lyrics sometimes are razor sharp, the sort of brilliant poetry that Reed's always done (take, for instance, "In the mystic morning where the river meets/The hurdy-gurdy of the hip-hop beat," from "Mystic Child"). Most of the songs deal with Lou Reed's long defunct marriage and the emotion does shine through, anger and sadness and helplessness reflected through the sparse chords.

Federal lawmakers don't know what hit them: While Smith & Wesson has endured a great deal of industry ire after its conciliatory move, there was little indication the company would back down altogether. Maybe they should have seen it coming: "The confusion between the Smith & Wesson reading of the deal and the government's reading was apparent from the get-go," says TIME national correspondent Edward...
