Looking for the perfect Happy Fathers Day gift on June 20th? Mega-best selling author John Gray says Dad’s favorite gift is free, easy and as close as your heart. “More than anything, every father wants to feel like a hero and his wife can easily do that,” says John Gray, Ph.D., C.F.T. “In front of the kids, tell your husband that he truly makes you happy and proud. Write him a card and read it out loud.”
Dr. Gray explains that just by hearing those words, a man’s testosterone increases. Testosterone is the hormone that provides stress relief and vitality for men. “He’ll feel like Brad Pitt and Will Smith, climb mountains and even clean the garage. A confident Dad is a great Fathers Day gift for the whole family,” says Gray.

CLAY AIKEN featured in Chicago’s Senior News
June 9, 2010All it took was a few bars of an old Heatwave song, and Clay Aiken was on his way.
American Idol viewers in January 2003 were taken by surprise when an unknown singer strode confidently into the audition room, announced to the judges that he was their choice, and backed up that claim with an electrifying rendition of “Always and Forever” that instantly caught the attention of millions watching at home. Many of them — like judge Randy Jackson — must have wondered, “Where is that voice coming from?” Well, Clay knew…and he’s never looked back. (click to read more, and scroll down)
