Photographer Brad Walsh caught up with Will Wikle for a photo shoot amongst the Tiffany-blue walls of Will's apartment. We had a fantastic chat and interview with Will just last year -- though you may remember that amazing Rick Day photo of his tush more...

Congratulations to Jack Mackenroth on his Bronze medal win at Outgames 2009. Our friend medaled in the 200m IM (which he wasn't even thinking he would place in.)

UPDATE 07/28/2009: Jack won two silver medals today at the Outgames in Copenhagen in swimming - only .4 seconds from a gold!

UPDATE: Jack's final medal count: 2 Gold, 4 Silver, and 2 Bronze! Way to go!

Outgames isn't over yet, though -- who are your favorites in the games? You should tell us via Twitter, Facebook, or e-mail!

Jonathan Waud might have just missed out on taking the crown on Bravo's Make Me a Supermodel, but he has been one of the more visible former contestants since the show's airing.

This month Jonathan has landed on the cover of Bello Magazine, photographed by Alek and Steph (of OHLALA Mag.) Now Jonathan is headed to Seattle for a gig -- though unfortunately not at Hunk du Jour HQ!

Check out Jonathan's full shoot and interview at Bello Magazine, and keep tabs on him on Facebook and Twitter.

(You should follow us on Twitter and our Facebook page too.)

A staple among primetime reality shows, Survivor has successfully kept the same host through out the years, sexy hunk Jeff Probst. Season 18 wrapped up recently and the new location for Season 19 has been announced. *Drum Roll* Samoa! Jeff has also signed up for Season 20 as well. Needless to say, we will be seeing plenty more of Jeff on our TV sets.

After the jump, see a couple pictures when Jeff guest starred on Head Case.

Our next Home Improvement Hunk can be seen on both Australian and American television -- but Jamie Durie's form of home improvement is featured outside the four walls!

Jamie has been seen on HGTV Showdown, The Outdoor Room, The Victory Garden, Backyard Blitz, The Block, and Australia's Best Backyards. (Oh, and since that doesn't keep him busy enough he drops by to see Oprah every so often.) As you can gather from that list of credits -- he specializes in creating spectacular outdoor spaces!

Before hitting the airwaves he was a dancer with Manpower Australia - something he doesn't bury or try to hide, has his own award-winning landscaping company, and has even appeared on the Australian version of Dancing with the Stars!

I'm making a habit of starting off our theme weeks on Tuesdays, it seems... maybe I should just embrace that I'm not one of those "Monday People" and be OK getting productive starting on Tuesdays of each week!

This week we're diving into the world of home improvement television! There's something about the way these men can completely transform homes on ridiculously low budgets and/or time frames -- and if they look good in a tool belt while they're doing it, it's just icing on the cake!

Our fabulous reader Bill recommended this week's theme -- Thanks Bill! If you have a great idea for a future theme just drop us a note!

Kicking off things this week is Matthew Finlason, who helps people sell their homes by with expert staging on the HGTV show The Stagers.
