mendmark

Mend Mark
The mend mark is a distinctive wristband designed with the purpose of resembling one of the five scars of Jesus. The band features circular disks that are positioned at each side of the wrist. The intent of these is to simulate one of the holes that was instrumental in killing a King. The purpose of bearing this symbol is to emphasize the importance of His sacrifice and prompt us to never forget the role that it continuously plays in our lives. Have you been marked?

HIS

Hearts In Stereo
Besides a great icon in the two hearts, this Canadian quintet cranks out some melodic pop punk with a good penchant for a vocal hook. They pull off a real funny parody of Justin Bieber’s “Somebody to Love” in a video on their MySpace.

News From Verona
Gripping vocals, shredding lyrics, and a shear level of optimism is what defines News from Verona. News From Verona is able to combine the smarts of Paramore with the boldness of The Classic Crime all while crafting a tightly produced, hook-laden rock album (All I Know Is I Know Nothing) appealing to a multi-cultured demographic.

Look for their big tour with ManicDrive in January and February.

“Really catchy hooks that are easy to begin singing along to. Nice piano accompaniment with the smooth vocals.”

NOU_forgiven

www.Noustore.com
“Forgiven”  by Eric Samuel Timm  XLVII-V-XVII “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!”

The word “Forgiven” really cuts to my heart strings. What I love about forgiveness is that is connects the common threads of humanity. What I mean by that is our pains and pasts are very much alike, the details is what makes them unique to us. I wanted to paint a piece that captures this commonality we all share and the solution I pray we would all find. I wanted to connect us together, but offering room for each of us to add our story.

For more information on Eric Samuel Timm or to have him speak/paint at your event check out nooneunderground.com

Ashlynn
“After The Clouds, The Sun” is the wintery, swirling debut EP from Ashlynn, a 4-piece indie band based out of Dallas, Texas. Their sound seems to be the musical embodiment of a baby that would be conceived from the likes of Thrice, As Cities Burn, and Lydia. Unique instrumental and vocal arrangements mixed with the conceptual lyrical journey of discontentment to understanding makes “After The Clouds, The Sun” worth a listen, given you are a citizen of good taste.

Mike Farris and the Cumberland Saints
The Night The Cumberland Came Alive is the first of Farris’ Rose Memorial Fund projects, which is an ongoing charitable outreach in memory of his long-time manager and friend, Rose McGathy. Farris rolls out a decidedly pre-war Americana sound, while delivering a hopeful message of restoration.

“The net result is one class act, Mike Farris, soulfully supporting a very good cause.”
Dan MacIntosh, HM Magazine

The follow up to Philmont’s critically acclaimed ATTENTION (August 2009), The Transition EP delivers 6 tracks of high-energy, melodic pop sound with singable choruses like on debut single “You Will Remain,” currently vying for adds at Christian Hit Radio.

HT-7450_Dark_Chocolate_Hero_3-4_Right_wells_down

HT 7450 Zero Gravity Massage Chair
Human Touch makes a complete line of massage chairs (you know, those things you plunk down on for long periods of time at Brookstone shops in the mall until someone stares holes into you) and this one is at the top. With a user-friendly remote control, it’s easy to explore and learn what the different programming options are. This one is billed as a “zero gravity,” because it reclines almost into a full horizontal posture. The handy remote allows you to add heat and experiment with rapid or slow percussion, kneading and compression. A cool Acupoint® Detection system pinpoints trigger points to key in on during the massage. At times a program will stall, as if the unit is over-worked. Nevertheless, this chair has been cherished and appreciated during our deadline this issue. [humantouch.com] [ Setup Ease: A-  |  Performance: B  |   Price: $3,999 ]

Robin Hood DVD

Robin Hood
Epic, historical (though the accuracy could be questioned) and highly entertaining, this 2-Disc Unrated Director’s Cut is a pleasure to watch. Then, with the directional oversight of Ridley Scott, this should come as no surprise. Russell Crowe was superbly cast for this medieval tale put to film. They managed to balance equal parts battle action with human drama (redemption, betrayal and corruption). The extra bonus disc is loaded with fun deleted scenes and entertaining documentaries on bringing this legend to life.
