I can't imagine a greater honor than being acknowledged by my peers. Being an actor is a hell of a thing. It's a hell of a thing. It's up and down. It's great, but I found the best thing about it is hanging around the craft-service table with other actors and crew people, eating doughnuts.

Where you have a bit more flexibility in the exchange rate ? for instance, Jamaica ? you would require a smaller amount of international reserves.

For us this was very big because everybody saw Cuba as a smaller team. They thought of the other teams, greater teams, bigger teams, powerful. They thought we could never win against Venezuela, that we did not have any possibility or any chances. And here you have it. We know how to play under pressure.

If between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., it gets two or less hours of direct sunlight, then you can really only work with shade plants. Two to four hours of direct sunlight, then you can work with mixed plants. If it's greater than four hours in that area, then you can work with a full sun plant.

If it's surface water, that would allow the possibility of photosynthetic organisms. Once you can tap into sunlight, it leaves open the possibility for a much greater abundance of life if it was ever there.

Globalization is causing a shift of momentum and energy to greater Asia, where China has steadily expanding reach and may become a peer competitor to the United States at some point.
