KEVIN BALL found his way in the humanitarian world because he felt the need for change. Hollywood's materialistic temperament was wearing on him. His career as a professional stuntman spanned over thirty years and it helped to prepare his mind and body for the hurdles of filming NGOs in developing nations, as well as giving him years of experience both in front of and behind the camera. Kevin decided to take his skills and advocate for those doing great things in the name of humanity. Since his first trip in 2007 to the K-5 minebelt in Cambodia with Freedom Fields USA and the international humanitarian demining group, The HALO Trust, he hasn't looked back. As of 2022, Kevin has had boots on the ground supporting NGOs in over thirty-five countries and has worked with the World Food Program, Operation Smile, The HALO Trust, International Health Emissaries, GUA Africa, Global Action for Children, and more. Acting as the personal film crew for Cindy McCain on her humanitarian missions, Kevin, with the assistance of his stunt buddy, John Evanko, accompanied her to Southeast Asia to document segments to be used during John McCain's run for Presidency of the United States in 2008. They then continued to travel with her, documenting her benevolent actions. Kevin's soapbox message, which he preaches often, is that "Humanity is simple one hand reaching out to help another hand in need, nothing more, nothing less." With this message as his guiding light, he continues to speak out in the darkness and to be a voice for those silenced by unfortunate worldly circumstance and for those that are just trying to do what is right.Mostra libro

Gaius Julius Caesar remains one of the most influential and recognizable figures in history. A brilliant military commander and astute statesman, Caesar played a decisive role in the events that led to the collapse of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire. His life and career were marked by political ambition, military conquests, and transformative reforms that forever changed the Roman world. Born into a patrician family, Caesar rose to prominence in Roman politics through strategic alliances and persuasive rhetoric. In 60 BC, he formed the First Triumvirate with Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus, known as Pompey. This informal political alliance dominated Roman politics for several years, enabling Caesar to secure the consulship in 59 BC. The Triumvirate sought to advance the interests of the Populares, a political faction advocating for the rights of the common people, in opposition to the Optimates, the conservative faction of the Roman Senate. Powerful senators such as Cato the Younger and orator Cicero resisted Caesar’s growing influence, leading to increased political tensions. To solidify his power, Caesar launched a series of military campaigns known as the Gallic Wars from 58 BC to 51 BC. These campaigns significantly expanded Roman territory, bringing Gaul (modern-day France and Belgium) under Roman control. Caesar's military success earned him wealth, popularity, and the unwavering loyalty of his legions. His invasion of Britain and the daring construction of a bridge over the Rhine River showcased his strategic prowess and ambition. These victories, however, unsettled Pompey, who grew increasingly aligned with the Senate following Crassus’ death in 53 BC. Fearing Caesar’s rising power, the Senate ordered him to disband his army and return to Rome as a private citizen.Mostra libro
