How to... Bend the knee

No, we’re not fondly reminiscing on those numerous pledging of fealty scenes from Game of Thrones silly, we’re focused on something a lot more serious and closer to home, and that’s how to propose! Some have dubbed February as ‘the month of love’, what with Valentine’s Day and the preparations that many couples make to show their love and appreciation for their significant other. Well, we thought that instead of the usual ‘go get roses and prepare a homemade dinner by candlelight’ speech we’d bump it up a notch and give you guys who are a little more serious about things some hearty advice on how to really lock things down. That’s right, we’re talking the ultimate ball-and-chain situation, and those always begin with a marriage proposal. So, what’s the…

Jenna Nicole The Southern Belle

“...he has to be able to hold a great conversation with my wild mind... Tell us about yourself? I’m a fun-loving, sweet girl with a big heart. I have a huge passion for helping people and animals.

ASPIRING PORNSTARS!

Don’t believe everything you see on TV… especially not in porn! One of the biggest problems younger generations face today (we’re talking millennials and younger here), is the constant access to information online, at any given time. This means that access to porn is almost instant, and most often free. You can literally access any category of porn at any time you like. And what this also means is that for most men this age, porn is likely to have been their first bought of ‘sex ed’… When we take a closer look at porn sex and real sex, there are major differences that men and women need to identify and understand! The type of sex that porn portrays, and unfortunately often the type of sex a young person grows…

MEGA PAY-DAY CONOR MCGREGOR’S $80 MILLION IN 40 SECONDS

All the hype, all the tension, and what an epic event U.F.C. 246 was. Picture it, one of the biggest names in UFC history Conor McGregor makes a return to the sport headlining a match against Donald ‘Cowboy’ Cerrone and beats him in the first 40 seconds. McGregor took out Cowboy with a quick, explosive flurry of strikes that was impressive to watch. Talk about a comeback kid! McGregor’s last fight was in late 2018 but he hasn’t lost his natural-born talent to knock a guy out. Although the Dublin-born fighter took home $3 million for the fight, he estimates he’ll earn more, a LOT more. Still, three mil in 40 seconds, that’s $76,250 per-second which isn’t bad for a day’s work. The estimated $3 million that he earned didn’t…

THE ICE BREAKER

Outside these windows, it’s absolutely freezing. Battery-sucking conditions, apparently, for electric cars. Fortunately the Porsche Taycan I’m currently snuggled in is prepared for such wintery hell with a suite of onboard heaters quick to pamper the batteries to peak performance. FHM has been invited to the very edges of the Artic Circle to sample the entry-level Porsche Taycan 4S and to make things more, erm interesting, we’re driving it on snow and ice as well as drifting them around, almost brainlessly, at the Porsche Experience Centre – the sum total of its foundations being a cozy wooden hut and some leveled snowfields. I think this is Porsche’s way of proving that their first EV is fun… as much fun in fact as some of its revered sportscars. Noise aside, I’m…

Classics COCKTAILS 100%

The more things change, the more they stay the same and nothing could be more true with alcoholic beverages, cocktails, and mixers. We’re all aware that gin has been a growing staple in bars across the world for a few years now spawning new brands from celebrities and long-term distilleries alike and there’s no sign of that trend stopping anytime soon, be it this year or next. But it’s still interesting to see some of our bar shelf favorites still holding their own in terms of popularity, variety, and taste. Be it whiskey, vodka or rum, there’s something to mix up for everyone. One thing is certain though, people prefer quality over quantity and there’s a noticeable shift away from over-the-top sugary drinks to more healthier options. Cocktails and mixes…

Review

From the dawn of creation, the council has maintained the Balance across existence. Carrying out their orders are the Horsemen, Nephilim (powerful beings spawned from the unnatural union of angels and demons) who have pledged themselves to the Council and been granted immense power. However, this power came at a tragic cost: the Horsemen were ordered to use their newfound strength to wipe out the rest of their kind. What followed was a bloody battle on Eden where the Horsemen, obeying the will of the Council, annihilated the Nephilim. Still reeling from the events on Eden, War and Strife have been given a new assignment — Lucifer, the nigmatic and deceptive demon king, has been plotting to upset the Balance by granting power to master demons throughout Hell. War and…

TRISTA Tauchas Exotic Charm

Could you tell us something interesting about yourself that people would not ordinarily know about you? I have never lived in the continental United States. I have only ever lived in either Hawaii or Alaska. Other than that, I lived in Mallorca, Spain for 2 years while I taught as an ESL teacher. I was working for the Spanish Ministry of Education in a tiny town, on an island in the middle of the Mediterranean. All three places are incredible and have definitely shaped me to be a unique individual. Hawaii, Alaska, and Spain feel like home, while California feels like a foreign country. If you weren’t a model, what would you be? I’d definitely be a fox, since they’re clever, incredibly adorable, and can live on all seven continents.…

KEVIN PLANK THE RISE OF UNDER ARMOUR

Think like an entrepreneur. Create like an innovator. Perform like a teammate.

It’s also a brand that came into existence because it’s future CEO was the sweatiest man in the football locker room.
