Cover photo by Jorge Freire & Abel Cruz www.photostudiomiami.com Model: Andrew Corvin Styling by: Joey Rolon PUBLISHER'S CORNER GET READY FOR PRIDE For this week's edition of Wire Magazine, we bring you another installment of our quarterly Hot Models Calendar. However, I decided to do something a little bit different from our usual quarterly calendar issues by showcasing some edgy pho- tos of gorgeous model Andrew Corvin taken by Photo Studio Miami and styled by Joey Rolon. Since publishing is our passion, we constantly strive to bring new and interesting content to our readers. This photo shoot is an example of creative new things to come from Wire Magazine's ongoing partnership with Photo Studio Miami. Enjoy! I also want to give you a heads up about next week's annual Miami Beach Gay Pride special edition of Wire Magazine. This annual issue is a great platform to advertise and reach thousands of potential new customers. Upon publication, you will see that several very well-known national companies are advertising in this issue because they support Pride and want to be part of our special Pride issue. Feel free to contact me directly or visit www.wiremag.com/ads if your company would like to acquire new customers by partnering with Wire Magazine. We will be glad to help you grow your business. Perusing beautiful hot model photos serves as an effective distraction from the decidedly less good looking state of American civic life these days. Repeated lies, broken promises and ongoing controversies surround President Donald Trump. Add to that Trump's attacks on the media calling him out using facts and videos of his previous statements. All this has talking heads screaming at one another and neighbors at odds with each other. Not even all the sexy photos of Andrew Corvin in this week's issue have been able to distract Wire Magazine Editor Michael W. Sasser from worrying that he might not know the dress code for a full-fledged revolution. He explains his quandary in his Postmodern Politics column. If things domestically are just a little too contentious for you, maybe a getaway across the pond is on your agenda. In Destinations, travel writer Dane Steele Green shares the story of Montpellier, deep in the south of France. It's hardly a cheap destination, but it is distinctly gay-friendly with a vibrant nightlife and plenty of other attractions to boot. The south of France is beautiful and very popular, so you may want to plan a vacation to Montpellier for 2017. Also in this week's issue of Wire Magazine, music columnist DJ FR8-O has heard the most recent album release from James Blunt and declares the "Beautiful" sing- er is ready to assume a role at the forefront of contemporary male vocalists. Final- ly, in Nutrition we get some help from Anthony Reyes discovering the true amounts of liquid calories in some of our favorite beverages. You may initially be shocked, but you will be able to ascertain their impact on your battle against the bulge, and do something about it to improve your nutrition habits. I, for one, recognize that I need some help addressing my struggle to stay on point with my nutrition and health given my super busy lifestyle.
