Foreign Currency [Abstract]
Venezuelan Currency Devaluation	NOTE 5. VENEZUELAN CURRENCY DEVALUATION In early 2014, the Venezuelan government modified the currency exchange system by establishing two new exchange mechanisms, SICAD 1 and SICAD2, where participation in the auction process of each mechanism is controlled by the Venezuelan government depending on the economic sector within which a company operates. These mechanisms are in addition to the existing official exchange rate. There could be additional changes to exchange mechanisms in the future. We have not been eligible to apply for exchange at the official rate nor have we been allowed to participate in the SICAD 1 auctions. We have successfully participated in SICAD 2 auctions. As a result, during the second quarter of 2014, we adopted the SICAD 2 exchange rate of approximately 50 BsF per USD for purposes of remeasuring BsF denominated assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses because we believe the SICAD 2 rate was and continues to be the rate most representative of the economics in which we operate. Prior to this change, we were using the official exchange rate of 6.3 BsF per USD. The impact of this devaluation in the currency was a loss of $12 million resulting from the write down of our BsF denominated monetary assets and liabilities. This loss was recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2014. In February 2013, Venezuela's currency was devalued from the prior official exchange rate of 4.3 BsF per USD to 6.3 BsF per USD, which applied to our BsF denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The impact of this devaluation in the currency was a loss of $23 million and was recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2013.

NOTE 5. VENEZUELAN CURRENCY DEVALUATION

In early 2014, the Venezuelan government modified the currency exchange system by establishing two new exchange mechanisms, SICAD 1 and SICAD2, where participation in the auction process of each mechanism is controlled by the Venezuelan government depending on the economic sector within which a company operates. These mechanisms are in addition to the existing official exchange rate. There could be additional changes to exchange mechanisms in the future.

We have not been eligible to apply for exchange at the official rate nor have we been allowed to participate in the SICAD 1 auctions. We have successfully participated in SICAD 2 auctions. As a result, during the second quarter of 2014, we adopted the SICAD 2 exchange rate of approximately 50 BsF per USD for purposes of remeasuring BsF denominated assets and liabilities and revenue and expenses because we believe the SICAD 2 rate was and continues to be the rate most representative of the economics in which we operate. Prior to this change, we were using the official exchange rate of 6.3 BsF per USD. The impact of this devaluation in the currency was a loss of $12 million resulting from the write down of our BsF denominated monetary assets and liabilities. This loss was recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2014.

In February 2013, Venezuela's currency was devalued from the prior official exchange rate of 4.3 BsF per USD to 6.3 BsF per USD, which applied to our BsF denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The impact of this devaluation in the currency was a loss of $23 million and was recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2013.
