...Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders did not lead the charge on San Juan Hill. Colonel Roosevelt participated primarily in the taking of Kettle Hill, which was adjacent to San Juan Hill. San Juan Hill is more of a misnomer as the area was a series of ridgelines making up the San Juan Heights and not a hilltop. The American press deemed this victory as the greatest victory for Theodore Roosevelt and the Rough Riders of the 1st Volunteer Cavalry even though the Buffalo Soldiers of the 10th Cavalry and 24th Infantry Regiment had done the bulk of the fighting. In the early months of 1898, key events took place in relatively rapid succession that led up to the Spanish-American War and in turn, the Battle of San Juan Hill. Some saw this war as a necessity to end the appalling conditions on an...

...ya que ahí sucedieron dos hechos importantes: las conquistas de la Triple Alianza y la española.La última etapa cultural del Pánuco abarcó de 1200 a 1519 y representó la época de mayor grandeza de la cultura huasteca.La conquista española penetró en México por lo que hoy es el estado de Veracruz.El 22 de abril de 1519, Hernán Cortés desembarcó en la playa de Chalchihuecan como continuación de la campaña iniciada por Juan de Grijalva apenas un año antes. La isla fue bautizada como San Juan de Ulúa.En este lugar Cortés decidió fundar el primer ayuntamiento español en tierra firme, y eligió para ello el Viernes Santo, el día de Semana Santa conocido como de la Vera Cruz. De esta narración viene el nombre de la pequeña población la cual se llamaría Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz.En 1609, un negro llamado Yanga, encabezó una insurrección que fue combatida por los españoles, el líder negro perdió la batalla, continuando la lucha lo que obligó al gobierno a firmar un pacto de amnistía, por medio del cual, los negros consiguieron su libertad y el derecho a fundar el pueblo de San Lorenzo de Zerral, hoy municipio de Yanga. En este territorio veracruzano se da por primera vez la abolición de la esclavitud en el continente americano.El traslado de la Nueva Veracruz a tierra firme, asentado su división por el río Tenoya, con el correr del tiempo desaparece, para albergar a más habitantes, se construye la Casa de Cabildo hecha de material y sin torre aún, se le otorga el título de ciudad.Fue hasta...

The Popular Mystery of Flight 19 A: The legend of six fighter planes disappearing on a routine flight. B: How the Bermuda Triangle got its name from this mystery. C: The true occurrence of how the mission went and explanation of phenomena. For years there has been an unsolved mystery of disappearances of boats and planes with no trace of evidence left behind. All of these conspiracies had relevance as to the whereabouts of these lost travelers. The locations of these disappearances were within a geographical triangle in the Atlantic Ocean. The corners of this legendary triangle were between three axis points: Miami, Florida; San Juan, Puerto Rico; and Bermuda. After some question this so-called triangle gained the name "Devils Triangle," serving to peoples superstitions that the devil was fooling with lost travelers. It also brought to question whether aliens had a selected spot on earth for abduction or could it be a vortex that warps the living to another dimension. Could all of these questionable losses just be a coincidence that conjured up a myth? In the last hundred and fifty years forty ships and twenty planes have disappeared carrying over a thousand people into an oblivion that is yet to be explained (Kusche 10). Even the US Coast Guard is baffled by these series of events. There are also cases of disappearances during search and rescue missions. There...

...Discussion 1: Course Policies In my opinion, to keep up with deadlines and daily work is vital to the success of any course and program. It is important to complete assignments promptly to avoid losing points in the class for this aspect. As students, we cannot procrastinate at any point because that will delay our work and then if something else comes up we will regret it. Being such fast paced course, we will need to take advantage of the time and engage in effective time management. I admire your courage Robert, in returning to your studies and getting back on track. In my case, this is my first doctoral course, after taking a bridge course between my masters and the doctoral. All these policies are scary, but if we do not follow them it is on us. The University provides us with all the tools that we need to succeed. Your example of coming back to study shows us how important all these goals are to become better individuals and professionals. Discussion 2: Doctoral Journey Assumptions I first thought about a doctoral degree because of my past job. It was a competition because I used to work at a University. Then, when I left that job, I thought about it more in depth and found out that it was what I wanted. The only difference was that if I was still in that job I was going to study something that I did not like. Now I am in a program that I know I will love. Obviously, like most of my fellow learners some of my assumptions about the program are that...

That is where aircrafts and ships are reported to be missing under mysterious conditions. For the Bermuda Triangle to be considered as the "devil's triangle" their must be some sort of proof that there really is paranormal activity going on in that area. Their are many cases of paranormal activity, but this one is not only the most confusing considering the fact they still haven't found the cause for the incident, but this is also the first ever affair in the history of the Bermuda Triangle.

...James Keaney Mrs. Gresham Honors English November 2nd, 2015 The Bermuda Triangle is an expanse of sea that is infamous because many ships and planes go missing over its waters. The causes of these disappearances are still unknown, and many have not returned from it. There are many facts involving the Bermuda Triangle, and even more interesting theories. 1. Facts The Bermuda Triangle is an expanse of ocean between Puerto Rico, Florida, and the island of Bermuda. It was first given its name Devil’s Triangle in the 1969 John Wallace Spencer book, Limbo of the Lost. Despite being known worldwide, it is not officially recognized by the US Navy or the US Board of Geographical Names as an actual worldwide area (“Bermuda Triangle”.) There are many popular cases of disappearing ships and like the case of Flight 19, which was a set of five ships being sent on a practice mission over the area, and never returned. The two planes that followed to try and locate the missing ones were also lost and never seen again. Another popular case, the sinking of the USS Cyclops, also happened around that area. The USS Cyclops was a 542-foot long collier ship that was making its way to Baltimore to deliver supplies to the US Navy, when it made a stop on the island of Barbados. The ship never arrived at its destination, and the crew of 306 lives has been lost, and the bodies never retrieved. Other famous cases include the disappearances of the Mary Celeste and the Ellen Austin (“The “Mystery” of The Bermuda...

Labor2 1AB Communication Arts Seniors, Institute of Communication, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Colegio de San Juan de Letran 2 Faculty, Language Area, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Colegio de San Juan de Letran ABSTRACT Pinoy Big Brother of ABS-CBN Channel 2 is the Philippine version of the reality television show Big Brother. Television’s effects on viewers especially teenagers is a subject that has been extensively studied in the last twenty years and whose impact extends farther than most people realize. Many studies have focused on how television programs that appear to be “real” (such as new and daytime dramas) alter the viewers’ perception of reality (or social reality). However, there is a lack of qualitative data to either support or disprove this belief. This study thus aims to describe and discuss the pluses, minuses and interests (PMI) of the perception of Pinoy Big Brother to teenagers. Forty selected teenagers who are a fan of the show were the participants of this qualitative inquiry. Initially, the teenagers were made to fill out forms for purposes of profiling their baseline characteristics. The teenagers were asked individually to discuss both their positive and negative perceptions to Pinoy Big Brother. Data...

Miguel Gregorio Antonio Ignacio Hidalgo y Costilla Gallaga Mandarte Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla es, para la mayoría del pueblo mexicano, el “héroe” más significativo durante el proceso de independencia. Ya sea por lo aprendido en la escuela o por lo enseñado por nuestros padres, este individuo pasó a la historia de México como una persona de rectitud envidiable y valor intachable. Pero, ¿fue realmente la persona que idolatramos como pueblo? Comúnmente pensamos que murió a sangre fría y sin consideración a manos del ejército realista. Lo que la mayoría de la gente no conoce es sobre el proceso militar y eclesiástico al que fue sujeto. Mismo proceso que nos disponemos a comentar. Antes que nada, es necesario aclarar que este no es un estudio sobre la independencia de México o sobre el movimiento insurgente durante el mando del Cura de Dolores. Tampoco es una explicación sobre la lucha armada entre el ejército insurgente y el realista. Y menos es un artículo sobre las causas de la independencia de México. Simple y sencillamente, es un comentario sobre el proceso militar contra...

....Lawyer . Apolinario Mabini was undoubtedly the most profound thinker and political philosopher that the Pilipino race ever produced. . Born on July 23, 1864, in Tanauan, Batangas, Apolinario is the second of 8 children of Inocencio Mabini and Dionisia Maranan. Very poor family . Before taking up law in UST, Mabini received a scholarship and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree with highest honors at the Colegio de San Juan de Letran in 1887. . Mabini was a member of the reformist La Liga Filipina in 1893. He became secretary of its Supreme Council. The group advocated for reforms in the Philippines before the Spanish Cortes (legislature). . Mabini was paralyzed in both legs due to polio in early 1896. Orthopedics confirmed it in 1980 when they performed an autopsy on Mabini's remains. . The Spaniards mistakenly assumed that Mabini could not participate in the armed struggle due to his paralysis. Still, he was detained at the San Juan de Dios hospital from October 1896 to February 1897. However, some arrested La Liga Filipina members were executed at Bagumbayan in January 1897. Their deaths contributed to Mabini's decision to join the Revolution shortly after his release. . Mabini became President Emilio Aguinaldo's chief adviser. He formally served in Aguinaldo's cabinet from January 1899 until his resignation on May 7, 1899. . Mabini arrived at Kawit, Cavite, on Independence Day in 1898, after being summoned by President Aguinaldo himself. Aguinaldo was impressed...
