We want to allow Costa Ricans to make a qualitative leap in our development and go to an economy based on innovation and developing a broadband infrastructure in order to overcome the barrier of 15 per cent penetration.

We want to bridge the digital gap to provide broadband access to 100 per cent of our educational institutions and to make it widely available to all people.

I have no problem with people feeling a bit down - crikey, you only have to walk down the road to find enough reasons to fall into a depressive coma - but I do have a problem with whining about it.

Venezuelans have a long history. So we are able to listen to each other, to talk to each other. From here were born the liberators of the region, and they said before and after that process we have a culture of political action. We are not in despair. That's the image broadcast to abroad.

When you think of the typical Teach For America corps member, soldiers and ex-bankers are probably not the people who come to mind. In fact, there is no such thing as a typical corps member. They can't be neatly pigeonholed or painted with a broad brush.

With the quality of this league from top to bottom, you are never going to back your way into success. I felt as if we were just trying to hold on, thinking that that we were going to back our way into a road win in the Big East Conference. It's not going to happen.

With the new C&G format, by all accounts those games will be at weekends. So hopefully, we will have more access to our first-choice side which is something we haven't had this year. Guys won't be forced to use up as many holidays to play and that frees up other opportunities to go abroad and play.

With the NBA scheduling, a lot of times it puts the onus on teams traveling. You play Utah one night and a team like Phoenix is resting and waiting for you the next night. That's tough. So you run into some circumstances like that more, it seems, on the road than you do at home.

We knew with our defense keying on the inside that we would give up some open threes but they hit three in a row. On the road it seems like we always have one bad quarter. We've got to get consistent and get four good ones.

We knew what we could do in our hearts, but we still had to go out and play each one of those games. We went and won seven in a row. We did what everybody said we couldn't do. We took the scenic route. We went and visited everybody's city and played on the road. They said, 'No way they could have all these games on the road and continue to win.' You know what? When you play football like we play at that point in time, and just execute like we're doing, we feel like we can beat anybody.
