I asked Josh if he could balance a can of Java Monster on his energized bicep.
Cans are not team players, and its cooperation was lacking. Although the can was falling in every shot, the photograph still worked fairly well.
Model: Josh Hall
Stunt Can: Java Monster Irish Blend Coffee Energy Drink

Writing in Dance Magazine, Janet Light describes ballerina Kristi Capps as, "A Classic Beauty", and praises every turn in her career.
Kristi trained at
School of American Ballet, The Harid Conservatory and University of North Carolina School of the Arts, and was selected to study and perform with the
Hungarian State Ballet School in Budapest, Hungary. Upon
graduation, Kristi became a member of Atlanta Ballet for three
seasons, then joined Cincinnati Ballet where she rose quickly to
Principal.
She danced numerous lead roles, and as guest artist performed with ballet companies such as the International Ballet
Festival of Miami,

American Ballet in Spain.
Kristi danced as Principal with Chautauqua Ballet Company in New York, performed at New
York City’s Guggenheim Museum and performed the leading role with The

Most recently she performed with the Morphoses dance company in
Paris, France.
She is part of the faculties of Colorado Ballet Academy, Sweatshop Dance, Colorado Conservatory of Dance, a
rehearsal coach for Ballet Ariel, and now Ballet Mistress for Kansas City Ballet.

The 2014 Sundance Film Festival U.S. Grand Jury Prize for Documentary went to Rich Hill, a feature documentary by directors Tracy Droz Tragos and Andrew Droz Palermo.
The crew spent a year with young friends Andrew, Harley and Appachey in a declining, rural-American town. The boys live with hope amid unfortunate and overwhelming circumstances, and limited resources.
It is uncommon to see a documentary in theaters, however Rich Hill, which has garnered additional recognition, opens in select theaters in August, and in Kansas City August 8th.
Vanity Fair's Hollywood just listed Rich Hill as one of nine independent movies to see this summer.
Since the movie's completion, Harley was diagnosed with a brain tumor and has undergone surgery. If you care to make a donation to help with his medical expenses, you may click here.
Pictured are Harley, and Tracy Droz Tragos.
