Album Summary
Superheroes dominate pop culture. From blockbuster summer movies to Halloween costume choices – kids and adults want to identify themselves with humans who exhibit supernatural abilities sacrificially used for the benefit of others. With his third studio album, Florida rapper/producer Brinson aims to proclaim that there are No Other Heroes. The only heroes the world will see is us as Jesus' representatives.
He emphasizes this idea through an album filled with a variety of hip hop, street anthem, and dance hits. No Other Heroes’first single, “3D Standout,” features Stellar-nominated singer Jai (Trip Lee’s “Hero”) over a synth-driven beat. It forms the background for Brinson’s raps about his desire to live a fully rendered life visualized by God’s redemptive love for others.
The party continues with the energetically joyous “Hit the Floor” (just wait until you see the song’s video treatment) and “Not Too Far” – an 80’s pop-inspired offering featuring vocals from Rossi and NBC’s “The Voice” contestant Niki Dawson.
“Bodyguard” also resonates the album’s hero theme when Brinson and friends celebrate the safety they find in Christ. And later, storytelling dominates tracks like “Gold” and “Shoulda Told ‘Em.”
The album ends with a radio-ready mash-up of rap and worship called “I Am Yours” that is sure to be a Sunday-morning and Christian radio favorite. Finally, No Other Heroes includes the bonus track “Tebowin” - a hip hop tribute to NFL quarterback (and vocal Christ-follower) Tim Tebow that was featured on ESPN.com.

JayLafe’s second studio album The Skylines EP is here! A seven-track EP featuring production from Grammy-nominated producer Tony Stone and more, Skylines explores the tensions of existing in a fading “city of man” while hoping in a better future, the New Jerusalem. Loosely inspired by fifth-century African theologian Augustine’s The City of God, Skylines is a cultural critique blended with hopeful proclamation of the Gospel as humanity’s ultimate refuge.

 TV One has announced that its President and CEO Wonya Lucas will step down at the end of the month.

Apple has announced the iPad Mini, the long-rumored challenger to Google's Nexus 7 and Amazon's Kind Fire tablets.
Apple has announced the iPad Mini, a smaller version of its full-size tablet, putting an end to months of rumors concerning the device. After Tim Cook talked at length about the iPad’s success in education, and a revised iPad was introduced, Phil Schiller took to the stage to reveal the new, smaller model.
The device is 53-percent thinner than the full-size iPad, and just 7.2mm thick. It has a design that looks closer to the iPhone 5 than the existing iPad in the pictures, and features a 7.9-inch display with a 1024 x 768 pixel resolution and a pixel density of 163ppi.
To differentiate the iPad Mini from the competition, Phil Schiller spoke about the new tablet having an aluminum chassis instead of plastic, and how the larger display shows 50-percent more content than a 7-inch display when viewing the web.
Inside is a dual-core A5 processor, a battery offering 10-hours of use and a 4G LTE radio, while outside is a 5-megapixel camera, an HD FaceTime camera and a Lightning connector. The operating system is still iOS 6, and apps designed for the iPhone will upscale to fit the larger screen.

The first of a dozen defendants to be sentenced in last year's hazing death of a Florida A&M drum major avoided jail time when he received his punishment Monday, but he will spend more than two years under close supervision.
Brian Jones was given six months of community control, which strictly limits his freedom with measures including frequent check-ins with probation officials. Following that, the 23-year-old from Parrish, Fla., will serve another two years of probation. He's also required to perform 200 hours of community service.

Upon entering the workforce, people are told to not take their jobs home with them. In spite of these warnings, most people have at least some difficult separating their homes lives from their work lives. The human mind is bad at forgetting about the stresses of work, but it is important to spend one’s free time disconnecting from what happens at the office. Here are six tips for balancing life and work.
When it comes to workaholics, one of the best ways to enjoy free time is to treat it is a necessary step for working well. Studies have consistently shown that relaxation is crucial for keeping the mind sharp, so people should view their time off of work as a period for resting and recharging. By making fun time a critical element of succeeding at work, many people are able to relax a bit more.
The human mind is stubborn, and it often wanders to areas seemingly on its own. In many cases, the mind wanders to stresses encountered while at work. One way to combat this is to make note when your mind begin to think about work and focus on something else. By telling yourself that it is okay to think about work but that you would rather not at the moment, it may be possible to train the mind to think about other tasks.
Often, people spend their time at home watching television and browsing the Internet aimlessly. As a result, they often have little passion outside of work. While work is important, it can also help to have other passions in life aside from work and family. A hobby such as restoring a car or starting a collection can give your mind something else to focus on during the day.
It is important to get away from one’s normal surroundings. While homes can be a great sanctuary, it helps to leave them for even short periods of time. Even a day hike is a valuable break that allows the mind to reset itself a bit. Vacations do not have to be long or expensive, and the important key is to simply detach from one’s common surroundings.
While many people view exercise as a strenuous chore, it is actually a great relief that most people end up enjoying after a short period of time. The best form of exercise is the one that you enjoy the most, so take some time and find a fun way to spend your time while exerting yourself. Any exercise that gets the heart pumping slightly faster than usual is effective, and only 15-minutes of exercise is necessary to reap tremendous health benefits. Aside from the physical benefits, exercise also leads to great mental relief as well.
Smart phones and email have revolutionized how business is done. As a result, people have access to their business information regardless of their location. Unfortunately, this has caused many to have trouble ignoring work messages while at hope. If your job allows it, ignore your emails while you are at home. Even quick checks can make it difficult to disconnect and stop thinking about work. If you are expected to answer emails while at home, ensure that you are properly compensated.
California rapper, Game, has revealed his artwork for his latest album, Jesus Piece, and a world wind of controversy is sure to follow. The artwork portrays Jesus wearing a red bandanna, covering his nose and mouth, sporting a gold Jesus medallion and necklace, with a tattooed teardrop on his left eye.
Game is no stranger to controversy and he’s about to ignite another firestorm with the illustrated cover for his upcoming album Jesus Piece. The religious-themed artwork features a portrait of Jesus with a teardrop tattoo under his eye, a Jesus piece chain around his neck, and red bandanna over his mouth. The image has already sparked outrage from some fans. “You took this sh*t too far,” wrote one of Game’s Instagram followers, while another added, “Open minded people see this concept, but I think this cover can push some people away homie.” (Rap-Up)

Apple's iPad mini is almost certainly set to be announced next week at an event in San Jose Tuesday, and we're now hearing that it will ship a week and a half after that unveiling. November 2 is the ship date we've heard today from a source close to Apple's supply chain, echoing an earlier report by Geeky Gadgets that that's the day the iPad mini will go on sale. There will surely be many more to come, these Eli Manning vs. Robert Griffin III matchups.
And if so, the NFL is in for quite the treat because Round 1 -- a 27-23 victory for Manning's New York Giants over Griffin's Washington Redskins -- was nothing short of incredible.
It will be Manning's 77-yard touchdown pass to Victor Cruz over cornerback Josh Wilson and safety Madieu Williams, combined with Chase Blackburn's forced fumble on wide receiver Santana Moss on the ensuing drive, that will go down as making the difference.
But none will forget the 77-yard drive Griffin led shortly before those events, especially not the amazing scramble-and-throw on fourth-and-10, when he escaped from Jason Pierre-Paul and eventually threw the ball to Logan Paulsen for 19 yards, a first down and new life. On the next play, Griffin escaped to his right for a 24-yard run around end that extended the drive.
Two snaps later, he laid a perfect ball on the hands on Moss and over Giants rookie Jayron Hosley for a 30-yard score that was a potential game-winner.
Griffin, who sparked a trend called "Griffining" with the Week 1 sight of his sitting down and raising his hands in the air after a touchdown against the New Orleans Saints, struck a new pose after this one. As he was lying on his back, he brought his hands over his face.

 Venus Williams of the USA flashes a smile after defeating Monica Niculescu of Romania on Sunday to capture the Luxembourg Open. (Geert Vanden Wijngaert, AP)
Venus Williams won her first WTA tournament in more than two years Sunday, beating Monica Niculescu of Romania 6-2, 6-3 to take the Luxembourg Open title.
Slowed for two seasons by injuries and illness, Williams showed she still had the winning touch and played steady tennis while Niculescu proved error-prone as she sought her first career title.
At 32, Williams won her 44th singles title in a career that includes seven Grand Slams.
For Niculescu, ranked No. 70, it was the second loss in the Luxembourg Open final in a row.
Williams, now ranked No. 41, had not won a tournament since early 2010, when she took the titles in Dubai and Acapulco in short order.
Throughout the 1 hour, 22 minute match, Williams rarely looked in trouble, taking the early initiative and never letting go.
For a player who relies strongly on her serve, she was successful on only 63 percent of her first serves and didn't manage a single ace on the indoor hard-courts at CK Sportcenter Kockelsheuer. She was much more solid in her backcourt game as Niculescu looked hesitant from the start and failed to get any momentum going.
The victory was a welcome turnaround for Williams, who has been struggling for several years from an autoimmune disease, which often left her fatigued and with painful joints.
She only started her season in March following a seven-month layoff because of the illness. And even then, it often was a slog through the summer in singles play, as she struggled to capture the style and power of old.
In doubles, she did shine when she won a 13th Grand Slam doubles title at Wimbledon with sister Serena and then made it a repeat performance at the London Olympics a month later.
That form did not rub off in singles play though. She hasn't made it past the fourth round of a Grand Slam since the 2010 U.S. Open and among the fans speculation over potential retirement started making the rounds.
Williams would have none of it. The first signs of improvement came when she reached the semifinals in Cincinnati in the run-up to the U.S. Open despite some back problems.
She was ousted in the second round at the U.S. Open, but in her first tournament since, she finally ended her title drought.

 What do Civil War vampire Nicolas Cage and Christian evangelist Kirk Cameron have in common? Well, if things work out, they will have both played Cameron "Buck" Williams in the Left Behind series.Nicolas Cage is eyeing the lead in a big screen remake of this Christian-themed end of the world thriller from writers Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. This will be the first theatrical feature from faith-oriented production company Stoney Lake Entertainment.
With a projected budget of $15 million, this reboot of the series will shoot in early spring with a projected release date of Fall 2013. Samuel Goldwyn Films is releasing the film theatrically.
