Cubans enjoy huge waves battering against Havana's seafront El Malecon, September 12, 2004, as winds strengthend ahead of the gradual advance of Hurricane Ivan. Hurricane Ivan battered the Cayman Islands with roaring winds and surging seas Sunday and took aim at Cuba and the United States after cutting a deadly path through the Caribbean. So far, at least 44 people have been killed in the storm's rampage through the Caribbean. REUTERS/Rafael Perez CD/GN
