<p>I am a comic book geek.  Well, I was until I had kids and had to start buying diapers instead comics.  I have tried to think for years on how to get my kids into comic characters and all of the imaginative stories that come along with these iconic beings of super-ness.  I was really pleased when I got word that Marvel was going to start putting out a new show using a whole heapin&#8217; of their super heroes!  This show is really geared to younger kids but, stays true to comic likenesses that I have seen throughout my years in the realm of comics.  The young-lings laugh at the silly jokes and I &#8220;marvel&#8221; at the short quips and throwbacks to yesteryear!</p>
<blockquote><p>The most powerful object in the universe, the INFINITY SWORD, has been shattered (oops!) in a battle between IRON MAN and DR. DOOM. But Doom doesn’t give up easily; he’ll leave no stone unturned until he recovers every last shard. Iron Man snags the best heroes around to beat Doom at his own game: WOLVERINE, HULK, THOR, the SILVER SURFER and a hotshot flyer named THE FALCON. With friends like CAPTAIN AMERICA and MS. MARVEL, and with tons of other heroes helping out, Iron Man can lead the Super Hero Squad to victory!</p></blockquote>
<p>In addition to a great look that kids won&#8217;t be afraid of or too intimidated by, there is HUGE list of celebrity voice actors and it&#8217;s really fun while watching  and picking out the actors!  Featuring the guest voices of Adrian Pasdar (Heroes), Robert Englund (A Nightmare On Elm Street), Tricia Helfer (Battlestar Galactica), Greg Grunberg (Heroes), James Marsters (Buffy The Vampire Slayer), Lena Headey (Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles) LeVar Burton, Taye Diggs and Stan Lee!  The kids loved it and I totally tolerated it!  </p>

Dad&#8217;s like to stay connected.  I talk with my family throughout the workday every day.  I am fortunate to have a job that I can talk with anyone at anytime but, I am constantly on the move.  That&#8217;s why I am so glad to have been hooked up with a Jawbone ICON.

<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2293" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=2293"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2293" title="Jawbone_Icon" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/Jawbone_Icon.jpg" alt="" width="409" height="237" /></a></p>
<p></center></p>
<p>Dad&#8217;s like to stay connected.  I talk with my family throughout the workday every day.  I am fortunate to have a job that I can talk with anyone at anytime but, I am constantly on the move.  That&#8217;s why I am so glad to have been hooked up with a Jawbone ICON.</p>
<p>Users can listen to podcasts or music while running errands throughout the day. They can receive turn-by-turn driving directions whispered into their ear while navigating the streets with both eyes on the road and both hands on the wheel. Users can even discreetly listen to the live play-by-play of a big sporting event while working at a desk. The addition of streaming audio allows Jawbone ICON users to be more productive and connected, all while remaining hands-free and discreet.</p>
<p><center><a rel="attachment wp-att-2297" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=2297"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2297" title="jawbone_icon_row_reflect_wh" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jawbone_icon_row_reflect_wh1.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="97" /></a></center></p>
<p>Jawbone ICON is the world’s most intelligent Bluetooth headset. With the best noise elimination on the market, Jawbone ICON also provides the first and only integrated application platform. Users can go to <a href="http://mytalk.jawbone.com/" target="_blank">mytalk.jawbone.com</a> to explore the all-new Jawbone MyTALK and to download apps that allow them to use their voice to send text messages, check their email, and tweet— all from their Jawbone ICON.</p>
<p><center>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a rel="attachment wp-att-2305" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=2305"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2305" title="jawbone_icon_hero_f_b" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/jawbone_icon_hero_f_b.jpg" alt="" width="409" height="237" /></a></p>
<p></center></p>
<p>One of the sweetest things that reeled me in to liking the ICON is that Jawbone is the inventor of NoiseAssassin, the world’s first and only military-grade noise-eliminating technology.  My wife constantly would tell me to &#8220;get to a quieter place&#8221; or &#8220;call me back at a place where I can hear you!&#8221;  NoiseAssassin has saved my marriage.</p>
<p><center><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="500" height="285" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/k1WBN2r6MT0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="500" height="285" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/k1WBN2r6MT0&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>Originally developed for use in tanks and helicopters, Jawbone ICON&#8217;s  NoiseAssassin is a proprietary technology that eliminates background noise from mobile phone conversations. Jawbone is the only Bluetooth headset with a Voice Activity Sensor (VAS) that actually feels your speech, which helps Jawbone distinguish your voice from background noise. As a result, Jawbone offers better audio quality than any other headset on the market.</p>
<h2>Ryan’s Rating: 9 out of 10!!</h2>
<p><strong>Pros</strong>:  Sleek, small yet stays put in my ear, and I can actually hear out of it and be heard too!</p>
<p><strong>Cons</strong>: More accessories like another earbud to make it true stereo or a separate small case to store on a belt clip.</p>
<p><center><a rel="attachment wp-att-2310" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=2310"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2310" title="icon_package" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/icon_package.jpg" alt="" width="511" height="296" /></a></center></p>
<h2>Giveaway</h2>
<p>I will be giving away (2) Jawbone ICON&#8217;s to 2 lucky people here on Daddy Digest!</p>
<h2>How to Enter</h2>
<p>Just leave me a comment telling me how this headset would make your life easier by being handsfree.</p>

<p>I&#8217;m the type of  person who has always went to a place to get my hair done. Not super fancy places that charge outlandish prices to help select a style, wash, cut, blow dry, style, primp and give you advice on how to maintain your expensive look though. I also cringe at the thought of going to a traditional &#8220;barber shop&#8221; and get a haircut just like my daddy and my grandaddy. So finding a place like Fantastic Sams was an immense relief and convenience.  Fantastic Sam&#8217;s was actually the first establishment I went to when I was younger and moved out on my own.  Fantastic Sams Hair Salons is one of the world’s largest hair care franchises, providing the same quality services as independent salons but at a fraction of the cost.</p>
<p>One of the things I always think of is the hair care products that are used in a hair salons.  I usually always get my hair washed and rinsed before I leave because I can&#8217;t stand to have hair bits all on my scalp after the haircut.  The only problem is that I can&#8217;t keep that great smelling salon product in, on, and around my head the next day.  The great news is that there is the Fantastic for Men Line.  The Fantastic for Men Line includes a two-in-one shampoo &amp; conditioner, a tea tree shampoo, tea tree conditioner, simple style matte wax, x-treme gel, and styling cement.  Here is some info on all of them and who they are right for!</p>

</ul>
<p>I really love the products that they sent over. My favorite by far is the Two-in-One shampoo/conditioner.  It is amazing to just have both on one bottle.  With all of the other bottles occupying the shelves in the shower in a household of five it is good to just look for your ONE bottle.  As for the products in general: When they say it tingles&#8230;it does.  When they say it styles well&#8230;it does.  When they say it holds&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.it&#8230;&#8230;sorry I had some on the tip of my finger&#8230;see it really holds!  Good stuff all around.</p>

<p>Hey Peeps!  On June 8th, Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment releases STARSTRUCK: EXTENDED EDITION on DVD! Pop star Christopher Wilde (Sterling Knight, “Sonny With a Chance”) makes quite the impression on Jessica Olson (Danielle Campbell, “Prison Break”) and her older sister Sara during a routine family vacation. Brandon Mychal Smith (“Sonny With a Chance”) and Chelsea Staub (“JONAS”) also star in this rockin’ DC Original Movie!</p>
<blockquote><p>
<em><strong>StarStruck</strong></em>, a music and adventure-filled romp that hits all the right notes for kids and tweens, tells the story of Jessica Olson (Danielle Campbell, <em>Prison Break</em>) and her older sister Sara (Maggie Castle, <em>Time Traveler’s Wife</em>), who are heading to Hollywood from Kalamazoo, Michigan, on a family trip to visit their grandmother. Sara is obsessed with pop star Christopher Wilde (Sterling Knight, <em>Sonny with a Chance</em>) and hopes to track him down while in California, but Jessica could care less about the stuck-up star and would rather go sightseeing. When the sisters arrive in L.A. Sara takes Jessica on a hunt to find Christopher and a chance meeting with the star sets off a series of comic adventures that feature many of L.A.’s landmark locations. As the sisters sightsee and spend time together, Jessica gets to know the real Christopher and soon their friendship grows. Ultimately Christopher must decide what is more important &#8212; being himself or becoming a movie star. Disney Channel stars Brandon Mychal Smith (<em>Sonny With a Chance</em>) and Chelsea Staub (<em>JONAS</em>) also star as Christopher’s loyal best friend and fame- hungry girlfriend, respectively.</p></blockquote>

<p>Most people say that change is good.  Well, I can at least say that changing your oil in your engine is very good.  Did you know that in the United States the average age of cars and light trucks on the roads today has reached a record high of 9.4 years? That means it´s more important than ever to take proper care of your vehicle.</p>
<p>With the informative Web site <a href="http://www.motoroilmatters.org/" target="_blank">www.MotorOilMatters.org</a> (created by the maker of industry-leading brands Pennzoil and Quaker State) you can easily locate key information about how quality motor oils can help prolong your engine´s life and improve overall efficiency, as well as help answer other questions you may have about motor oil. In addition, the site offers a fun, educational game for you to play called &#8220;M.O.M. Knows Best&#8221; where you can put your motor mind to the test with an interactive quiz.</p>
<p>Did you know?</p>
<ul>
<li>According to a recent survey from the Automotive Service Association, more than 54 percent of customers who take their vehicles for service and repair are women</li>
<li>Using a high-quality motor oil in the right grade can help maximize fuel economy</li>
<li>Low-quality oils that do not meet industry standards or the vehicle manufacturer´s requirements could cost consumers in the long run by potentially damaging the vehicle´s engine or possibly voiding the manufacturer´s warranty</li>
<li>Another reason to look to a high-quality motor oil &#8211; like Pennzoil and Quaker State &#8211; is that it is designed to meet the demands of today´s engines</li>
</ul>

<p>I will be giving away (1) $35 Jiffy Lube gift card for one lucky winner!</p>

I usually have an extremely hard time finding my wife something from the kids and I on Mother&#8217;s Day.  This year the great people at Marshalls and T.J.Maxx have come to our rescue!  Marshalls and T.J.Maxx are the places to find the same designer merchandise as department and specialty stores but for up to 60% less other retail stores.</p>
<p>I went ahead and took my wife on over to Marshalls and then to T.J. Maxx so she could look around and find some things that she really wanted and that she had all the time in the world to find them.  My wife is the hardest person to buy for but, I do love being able to get her stuff she really likes.  Usually she is also so worried about spending alot of money on things that she likes.  Thank goodness that at Marshalls and T.J. Maxx she can find the same designer merchandise but pay the &#8220;off-price&#8221;.  This should be really awesome for every different mother out there.</p>
<p>Here are some of the things that she picked up for Mother&#8217;s Day!</p>
<p><center><a rel="attachment wp-att-2001" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=2001"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2001" title="marshalls tjmaxx 002" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/marshalls-tjmaxx-002-300x208.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="208" /></a><br />
Here are some gorgeous shirts she picked up.</center></p>
<p><center><a rel="attachment wp-att-1961" href="http://daddydigest.com/?attachment_id=1961"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1961" title="marshalls corn basket" src="http://daddydigest.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/marshalls-corn-basket-190x299.jpg" alt="" width="190" height="299" /></a><br />
I know, I know, but she really likes corn on the grill!</center></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some great idea&#8217;s for every mother on your list!</p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;"> </span></strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>For the “Fashion Forward” Mom: </strong>If mom is a self-declared fashionista, buy her a new outfit to usher in the spring season.  Create a look that highlights some of the great spring trends like a floral-printed dress topped off with blush toned cardigan.  If your mom is really cutting edge, tap into the rocker chic look by purchasing a bomber jacket paired with boyfriend jeans. Or, sneak into her closet, find her shoe size and pick up a great pair of designer shoes she won’t be able to resist.</li>
<li><strong>For the “Home maker”: </strong>For the mom who loves to decorate, cook and garden shower her<strong> </strong>with home staples in the season’s best colors.  Be creative by purchasing a decorative frame with your picture already placed inside of it. Table centerpieces and vases are also great gifts. Try a stylish new apron, or a basket full of gourmet foods, oils and spices.  Or, pick up a set of colorful gardening tools or decorative watering can and oversized hats for her days in the garden!</li>
<li><strong>For the “Fitness Fanatic”: </strong> For the mom who loves a good work out, high-quality, stylish and low-priced work out gear will be sure to make her both look and feel good while running, doing yoga or even playing tennis.  Create a special gift package by pairing the outfit with a pair of sneakers or a yoga mat.</li>
<li><strong>For</strong> <strong>the “Mom Who Has Everything”: </strong> If Mom is a tricky person to shop for, focus on this season’s hottest item – jewelry.  A must have this spring are clear Lucite pieces like rings and bracelets.  Cocktail rings or a mixed metal lariat necklaces, are also a great gift if you are stumped on what to get mom. Or, just get her a gift card….so she can spend the day shopping and picking out her favorite things!</li>
</ul>
<p>I hope some of these ideas will help some of you out with the Mother in your life.  If not before, then as an &#8220;I&#8217;m sorry gift&#8221; afterward!</p>
