En el presente artículo estudiaremos las causas y el desenlace de la victoria hispana sobre la armada inglesa del almirante Edward Vernon durante el sitio a la ciudad de Santiago de Cuba (1739-1741) en medio de la guerra del Asiento. Prestaremos especial interés en nuestro análisis al accionar de las milicias de indios de los pueblos de San Luis de Los Caneyes y San Pablo de Jiguaní, que junto a otros grupos armados llevarían un peso decisivo en expulsar al enemigo, y salvaguardar los intereses del imperio español en tierras cubanas. In this article we will study the causes and the outcome of the Hispanic victory over the English Navy of Admiral Edward Vernon during the siege to the city of Santiago de Cuba (1739-1741) in the middle of the War of the Seat. We will pay special attention to our analysis of the actions of the Indian militias of the towns of San Luis de Los Caneyes and San Pablo de Jiguaní, which along with other armed groups would carry a decisive weight in expelling the enemy, and safeguarding the interests of the Spanish empire in Cuban lands.

Globose-shelled to depressed-helicoid terrestrial snails of the subgenus Helminthoglypta (Charodotes) occur from the vicinity of Morro Bay to the City of San Luis Obispo in San Luis Obispo County, central California, USA. Populations with intensely papillose shells largely or entirely lacking incised spiral sculpture, originally described as "Helix var. morroensis," have been regarded as either a subspecies of Helminthoglypta walkeriana (Hemphill, 1911) or an infrasubspecific variation without taxonomic significance. Shell form variation is distributed as one would expect if the two major aggregations of individuals were reproductively isolated, biological species, H. walkeriana and H. morroensis (Hemphill, 1911). Differing penial morphology is also consistent with reproductive isolation. The two species appear to be allopatric.

In view of the vast number of spurious glass artifacts known, it is of interest to note a genuine example which came to light recently in excavations in Florida.The scraper illustrated with this note (Fig. 27) is made of heavy green glass, and is a perfectly good aboriginal piece in form and workmanship. The length is 57 mm., the width 36 mm. The greatest thickness, 11 mm., lies near the steep nose at a point where original surfaces are present on both bottom and top. Undoubtedly, the material was derived from a heavy green glass bottle.The artifact was found in test excavations at the site of San Luis de Talimali, several miles west of the city of Tallahassee, Florida. San Luis was the major Spanish settlement in the Apalachee area during the seventeenth century, and at the time of its abandonment and destruction in 1704 consisted of a fort and blockhouse, a mission, and a number of dwellings inhabited by both Spaniards and Indians.

Self Defence

The political environment of Iraq in the period from 2011-2014 experienced a great degree of turbulence. Many Sunni tribes in the Anbar, Ramadi and Salahadin regions organized a daily protest against the central government, accusing it of being sectarian. Gradually, these protests become more popular, and the Baghdad government became fearful that it would spread into the other regions of Iraq. In order to control the protests, the government used force, and many were killed. Simultaneously, in Syria, and especially during 2013-2014, the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) controlled more land and more people, and to take advantage of the Iraqi people's dissatisfaction with their government, ISIS crossed the border between Iraq and Syria in June 2014. Mosul as the second most heavily populated city was seized by ISIS and the Iraqi army could not fight back, which meant that the Iraqi army retreated from most of the Sunni areas. Even Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, and the city where the central government operates, was threatened. While the Iraqi army was unable to fight against ISIS, the Shia religious supreme leader Al-Sistani called for self-defence and to stand against ISIS. Sistani’s call became a cornerstone for the creation of the so-called Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) with the aim of the fighting against ISIS. In this article, we assess the PMF from different perspectives, for example, using the Weberian theory that the state is the only entity that has a monopoly on violence, considering Ariel Ahram's model of state-sponsored and government-sponsored militias, and finally the devolution of violence to these armed groups.

When people speak of the Spanish conquest of America, they generally mention the outstanding figures, either heroic or odious, like Pizarro, Alvarado, Cortés, Benalcázar, Nuño de Guzmán, De Soto, Cabeza de Vaca, etc., but they forget those other figures, whose names in many cases have not even come down to us, who played just as important parts as the better-known leaders and who were the veritable “motors” of the conquest—and even more of the colonization: the royal scribes, the judges, the oidores, in a word, the letrados or men of the law. This statement is neither exaggerated nor one-sided. The letrados were the organizers of the Spanish empire, the empire that was able to sustain itself for three and a half centuries—or four up to the loss of the Antilles. There today in Santiago de Cuba a monument stands on San Juan Hill, near those of the mambi and of the American soldier, which is inscribed to the Spaniard as a ”homage to the defender of the last Spanish territory in America (1492-1898).“

<p>This paper studies the participation of women in the media seeking to examine whether there was discrimination against them, the characteristics of female employment, institutional cultures and the dynamics of power in the period between 1982 and 2002 in the city of Villa Mercedes, San Luis, Argentina. This development is also a research effort to try to display the status of women in the media world in a certain context and historical moment. Stereotypical representation of female workers in the media has been one of the central themes of the first reviews and studies on communication and gender. Using tools of qualitative methodology using document analysis and semi-structured interviews examine the institutional and dynamic cultures of power in women who worked in the media in the city of Villa Mercedes, San Luis.</p><p> </p>
