Caivano/AP Photo Using her cell phone as a flash light, a woman walks up the stairs to her sixth floor apartment in a building that has been without electricity for two weeks in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Thursday, Dec. 26, 2013. Power outages continue in Argentina's capital, where electricity usage is setting new records amid 100-degree (37.8 Celsius) temperatures in the Southern Hemisphere summer.
