Join Clutch and his team of LEGO®experts as their adventure leads them from LEGO® City to the Space Police prison planet to the medieval world of Ashlar where they must help the rightful heir to the King’s throne find the courage to regain the kingdom from the evil wizard Mallock the Malign. Their brick-building skills will be put to the ultimate test as they face off against Mallock’s skeleton army. Get ready for an action-packed adventure like nothing you have ever seen before, The Adventures of Clutch Powers!

CJ liked the graphics a lot. I found the story to be part Indiana Jones and part Star Wars. I loved the bits of humor that were incorporated into the storyline. “Let me get your legs. I’m not half the man I used to be.” “She brings extra hair.” I loved when one character chastised another for not following the directions when a piece was left over after building a structure. Despite the fact that they were “bad guys” I really thought the skeleton Lego characters looked cool. It was really neat to see so many of the Lego pieces I’ve seen over many years used in the film, as everything in the film was made of Legos.

Sothys Good Skin Giveaway

I’ve got another great giveaway from the folks at KMR Communications!

First, here’s some information about the prizes from Sothy’s .

These days, it’s easy to fall into bad skin habits. Between stress from work, our love lives, and even the harsh weather – we tend to let our skin care regimens slip away. However, there is good news for all those who are experiencing signs of premature aging. By avoiding a few bad skin habits and taking preventative action, we can help delay the natural aging process and thwart many skin care problems.

Bad Skin Habit:

* Over-Exfoliating

Although exfoliating scrubs and chemicals like alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) and retinoids (including retinol, Retin-A and Renova) can eliminate dull, dead cells on the skin’s surface, frequent sloughing can leave your skin irritated. Harsh cleansers or over-exfoliation can actually exacerbate oil production and worsen breakouts by spreading bacteria.

Good Skin Habit:

* Using a Gentle Daily Cleanser

Cleansing is a vital component of any skincare routine. Sothys Morning Cleanser gets rid of the oil without over-cleansing. Formulated for both men and women, this extra gentle cleanser with sweet almond oil, shea butter and chamomile extract purifies all skin types. Apply on moist skin morning or evening for an oil-free, mild yet deep-action cleanse. Price: $29

Bad Skin Habit:

* Staying Up Late

During sleep, the body repairs damage from the day. Interrupting that process will slow down cell turnover causing stress and aggravating all skin conditions, including acne, eczema and psoriasis. Only a few sleepless nights can interrupt blood flow to the skin, making the complexion sallow.

Good Skin Habit:

* Applying a Weekly Face Mask

Adding a weekly face mask to your beauty regimen will significantly improve skin’s health and appearance. Sothys Hydra-Protective Vitality Mask is a dual-action cleansing, normalizing mask for all skin types. Plant-based complexes mattify and detoxify skin, while witch hazel provides astringent properties and corn germ oil moisturizes. Its comfortable “powdery” texture leaves the skin looking bright and healthy. Price: $27

Bad Skin Habit:

· Drinking Too Much Alcohol

Drinking can accelerate sagging of the skin by increasing the level of inflammatory agents in the bloodstream. Alcohol dehydrates your skin and widens blood vessels causing your skin to look red or blotchy. Drink in moderation or your skin will suffer.

Good Skin Habit:

* Using a Daily Defense Face Cream

Get the most out of your face care products by using a cream that both hydrates and protects. Sothys Hydra-Protective Protective Cream uses natural corn grains to stimulate skin cell regeneration. Using it day and night will comfort the skin and counter minor imperfections. This rich, soothing cream enhanced with Divatonyl helps improve your skin’s elasticity by keeping a perfect balance of moisture. Price: $35

The key to having healthy skin is to implement a basic skin care regime. Skin care is not a difficult job. All you need is a few minutes a day and some diligence. Practice good skin habits and you can make sure your skin stays healthy and flawless. Sothys products guarantee vibrant skin with the use of gentle, but effective products.

WIN IT!

ONE winner will receive a Good Skin Package containing the three items above, valued at over $90.

Le Baby Hair Gel Giveaway

Time for a giveaway from the folks at KMR Communications.

Stylish Tresses for Tots

Introducing Le Baby Inc., Hair Gel Designed for Babies & Children

www.lebabyinc.com

Well, move over ladies - there is a new class of style trailblazers that are landing on the top of today’s “Best Dressed” lists. But you won’t find them on the red carpet or on the runways. Instead Hollywood’s latest fashion A-listers are at the playgrounds and on playdates. Little tots like Suri Cruise and Kingston Rossdale are being hailed as the next best thing of their generation in terms of style. Celebrity kids are sporting rocker chic Mohawks, bohemian-cool shags and posh bobs causing stylists to acclaim them as today’s hairstyle icons.

“Today’s fashionable parents think of their children as extensions of themselves,” says Tami Dimmerman, mother of two and creator of Le Baby Inc., a hypoallergenic hair gel designed especially for babies, kids and anyone with sensitive skin. “Today’s modern kids need to look just as fashionable and stylish as their cool moms and dads. Hairstyles have become a way of self-expression for kids and remind others that they have their own personalities.”

Not Just For Toddlers & Tiaras

Le Baby hair gel is a styling gel free of harsh chemicals meant to define wispy curls and tackle unruly after-nap hair. While the concept of baby hairstyling products might seem a little child-beauty-pageant to some, for many moms and dads it’s a must-have diaper bag accessory. From taming those wild fly-aways to smoothing frizzies, Le Baby hair gel works on all hair types and is hypoallergenic for sensitive skin. Whatever your child’s hair type,

Le Baby will make combing and styling a cinch. The unique formulas leave hair shiny, healthy looking and more manageable.

Additionally, the winner will win a trip to New York City and the opportunity to have professional photos taken of them to help build their portfolio, as well as participate in an exclusive, behind-the scenes tour of the As The World Turns set. The tour will be captured on film with photos and video being posted on BrightenBay.com and the Brighten Bay Facebook page and the As the World Turns FaceBook fan page.

The contest is part of the Brighten Bay Cheer soap campaign that kicked-off in November and has been brightening laundry routines at an affordable price all across the country. The campaign, which was inspired by daytime dramas, celebrates Cheer’s commitment to provide consumers with sparkling bright clothes, and now at a lower price point.
