...student-athletes in the country to earn the honor - and with it, two years of study at England's vaunted Oxford University - Rolle flew to College Park, Md., joined his teammates late in the second quarter and helped Florida State to a pivotal win over the Maryland. TIME caught up with Rolle to discuss his jam-packed schedule, his inspirations, and whether he'll opt for the NFL or Oxford...
...fleets use high-tech spotter planes buzzing over the Med during the summertime tuna-spawning season in search of shoals that have escaped the trappers. The industry's major players are massive multinational corporations like Mitsubishi, the world's biggest tuna trader - Japan imports the bulk of bluefin tuna caught in the Med. Some of the larger companies have created state-of-the-art tuna ranches in the Med's deep waters, where bluefin tuna swim into giant nets and are fattened over a period of months before being hauled out, processed in floating factories and then exported...

At an open-air market behind the capitol, mangoes, okra, guavas and limes are everywhere--and cheap. Good thing too because most Cubans earn from $15 to $25 a month and survive off the ration books that offer them sugar, rice, beans and (only for the elderly) cigars. But to get past subsistence, you need to shop at the air-conditioned hard-currency stores. That's where Damaris goes...
