The city was founded in 1797 in the area of a farm named Santa Catalina. The toponym "Guantánamo" means, in Taíno language, "land between the rivers".
Geography
Overview
The municipality is mountainous in the north, at Humboldt National Park, where it overlays the Sierra Maestra (mountains), and borders the Windward Passage of the Caribbean Sea in the south. It is crossed by the Bano, Guantánamo, Yateras, Guaso, San Andrés and Sabanalamar rivers. The city is spread with a square plan and is crossed in the middle by the Carretera Central highway. Guantánamo Bay is a natural harbour south of it.
Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp, a detention camp set up at the Guantanamo Naval Base in 2002 for holding enemy combatants and terror suspects extrajudicially detained by the United States
Battle of Guantánamo Bay - Battle in which U.S. forces captured Guantánamo Bay from Spanish forces in 1898
The Road to Guantanamo, a 2006 docudrama about prisoner treatment at the detainment camp
Guantánamo is a baseball team in the Cuban National Series. Based in the easternmost Cuban province of Guantánamo, the Indios have had uneven results, though they advanced to the playoffs in three straight years from 1997 to 1999.
Current roster
Catchers: Roberto Borrero, Yusdet Romero, Luis Rivera
Infielders: Yoenni Southeran, Yoilán Cerce, Islam Martinez, Alexis Laborde, Alberto Sánchez, Vismay Santos, Andrés de la Cruz, Enoyder Fondín, Kenen Bally
Worldwide controversy surrounds Guantanamo. The detention camp is infamous for its harsh methods and for not abiding by habeas corpus, a major stain on American rule of law and human rights violation. We take a look at what it’s really like behind the barbed wire fence.

In 2002, the US opened a prison at its naval base in Guantánamo bay, Cuba. The 9/11 attacks had occurred just months before, and the US was capturing hundreds of men in Afghanistan and Pakistan. It wanted a place to hold and question them. So the Bush administration opened Guantánamo and claimed that it lay outside of US and international law.
The detainees didn’t have to be charged with a crime to be imprisoned and the US could hold them as long as they’d like. By 2003, there were nearly 700 men imprisoned in Guantánamo, but there was backlash from around the world. When Barack Obama took office in 2009, he pledged to close Guantánamo.

What is it like in Guantanamo Bay?
Ruhal Ahmed was detained without trial by the US government in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. He told us about the abuse and torture he experienced, and how he was eventually flown back to the UK in 2004 and released the next day without charges.
This is an episode of Extraordinary Lives, where we speak to people with a unique life story to tell. From a North Korea escapee to an undercover cop, a Cold War spy to a shipwreck survivor.
Hosted by LADbible's Ben-Powell Jones, this series is a window into remarkable experiences – with stories that paint a picture of extraordinary lives.

But politics quickly got in the way. He was able to decrease the population but faced legal challenges. Ultimately, no president has been able to close Guantánamo because once something is created outside the law, its impossible to bring it back inside the law.

Conga: The Heart of Cuban Baseball
Conga comes from Africa and is deeply rooted in Cuban culture. It’s played at festivals, local celebrations and many other venues throughout the island.
Conga is also an essential part of Cuban baseball. Every team in Cuba’s baseball league, called the National Series, has its own conga band. Their music riles up the crowd, sets the mood of the stadium and can sometimes prove decisive for their team’s result on the diamond.

De ganar MILLONES a ganar DIPLOMAS: Alexei Ramírez premiado en Cuba
El equipo Vegueros de Pinar del Río es sin dudas el conjunto más estable dentro de la actual Serie Nacional, esto ha sido sustentado por varios atletas, tales como William Saavedra, Yaser Julio González y Alexei Ramírez. Sus 19 juegos ganados con tan solo nueve perdidos lo mantienen cómodamente en la cima de la tabla de posiciones. El más cercano a los pativerdes resultó ser el conjunto Las Tunas, equipo que ganó 15 y perdió ocho en lo que va de campeonato, con cinco juegos de menos en su recorrido
La actuación del equipo líder del campeonato trajo consigo recientemente halagos de parte de sus seguidores y directivos provinciales. Con la intención de resaltar el buen trabajo de sus mejores atletas, se produjo un chequeo de emulación para el equipo. En el mencionado acto, resultaron destacados varios peloteros, entre ellos Alexei Ramírez, jugador ExMLB que se incorporó a la nómina
La noticia fue compartida por INDER Pinar en su Red Social Facebook. El chequeo de emulación del equipo fue desarrollado para estimular a los jugadores más destacados de los primeros 25 juegos. Acto que presenciaron las mayores autoridades de la provincia, incluida Daniellys Sánchez González, directora provincial de deportes
Durante el transcurso del suceso fueron resaltados varios atletas del equipo, entre ellos Alexei Ramírez. El ExMLB recibió un diploma de manos de las autoridades provinciales, premiándolo así como líder en hits y bases robadas.
Por otra parte, reconocieron a atletas como William Saavedra, Yaser Julio González, Juan Carlos Arencibia y Jorge Rojas. Además de Jenier Álvarez, Gabriel Cantero y Orisbel Borges. Todos ellos y al igual que Alexei Ramírez, recibieron diplomas en forma de distinción. De esta forma fueron «estimulados» los mejores peloteros de la provincia Pinar del Río

A lo largo de la historia de las Series Nacionales, el trágico fallecimiento de algunos de sus protagonistas ha enlutado a la fanaticada. Muertes prematuras provocadas por accidentes, enfermedades, eventos meteorológicos adversos, e incluso asesinatos; han detenido bruscamente carreras deportivas en ascenso de jóvenes figuras que ya se habían ganado el respeto y el arrobo de la familia beisbolera en todo el país
El primer deceso mediático que impactó a los aficionados fue el de José Antonio Huelga, el 4 de julio de 1974. Un accidente de tránsito ocurrido en la carretera del Mariel cuando solo contaba con 26 años de edad, terminó con la existencia de este lanzador espirituano, considerado por muchos entre los mejores lanzadores que han pasado por las Series Nacionales.
Un año más tarde el mundo del béisbol se sorprendió con la muerte del también lanzador Emilio Salgado cuando apenas tenía 27 años de edad, fulminado por un tumor cerebral maligno que acabó con su vida.
Trágica para los lanzadores cubanos fueron esas dos primeras décadas, cuando además del fallecimiento del granmense Francisco Tomás Moreno en 1965 al salirse de la carretera el ómnibus donde viajaba para inaugurar estos obituarios, ocurrió la desaparición física de Santiago ”Changa” Mederos, producto de otro accidente en la madrugada del 14 de diciembre de 1979
En la década de los 80´s fue doloroso el caso del joven inicialista holguinero Ricardo Bent Williams (padre del medallista de bronce olímpico Neisser Bent), quien fue alcanzado por una descarga eléctrica en medio de una tormenta y del jardinero yumurino Lázaro Contreras, asesinado por su esposa al regresar de un evento internaciona
Más acá en el tiempo también fueron víctimas de actos violentos los lanzadores Enrique Cutiño (Santiago de Cuba), quien fue apuñalado en una riña callejera, Eddy Nelson Savón (Guantánamo), fallecido durante una trifulca familiar, y Arcilio Dionisio Rodriguez (Villa Clara), asesinado en el pedraplén que conduce a Cayo Santa María
En este siglo, varios accidentes automovilísticos troncharon las vidas de valiosos peloteros. Uno de las perdidas más sentidas fue la del camagüeyano Miguel Caldés en diciembre de 2000, cuando el auto en que viajaba fue impactado por una locomotora en un pase a nivel.
Otra perdida sensible fue la del lanzador artemiseño Yadier Pedroso, a solo unos días de cumplir 27 años, cuando el auto en que se encontraba chocó con un transporte de carga en una carretera de su provincia natal
En este oscuro listado también se incluye Frank Tamayo, receptor de Santiago de Cuba, quien perdió la vida a la edad de 28 años al impactarse contra un árbol mientras conducía una motocicleta en estado de embriaguez y Andrés Luis Martínez, lanzador zurdo camagüeyano, atropellado por un camión mientras se trasladaba en una bicicleta
Otros fallecimientos menos mediáticos también son los de los lanzadores Arnaldo Hernández (hermano del “Duke” y Liván), víctima de una enfermedad repentina, quien apenas logró jugar un campeonato con los colores de Metropolitanos; el de Osmani Tamayo, jugador de siete campeonatos nacionales, producto de un infarto cardiaco a los 30 años de edad; y la del prometedor espirituano Andy Fache, electrocutado al tocar una cerca perimetral en casa de un familiar cuando apenas contaba con 19 años de edad.
La última de estas muertes trágicas de peloteros cubanos que se desempeñaron en Series Nacionales fue la del también lanzador Miguel Alfredo González, el 24 de noviembre de 2017 a la edad de 34 años, en un accidente automovilístico ocurrido en la Habana.

Worldwide controversy surrounds Guantanamo. The detention camp is infamous for its harsh methods and for not abiding by habeas corpus, a major stain on American rule of law and human rights violation. We take a look at what it’s really like behind the barbed wire fence.

In 2002, the US opened a prison at its naval base in Guantánamo bay, Cuba. The 9/11 attacks had occurred just months before, and the US was capturing hundreds of men in Afghanistan and Pakistan. It wanted a place to hold and question them. So the Bush administration opened Guantánamo and claimed that it lay outside of US and international law.
The detainees didn’t have to be charged with a crime to be imprisoned and the US could hold them as long as they’d like. By 2003, there were nearly 700 men imprisoned in Guantánamo, but there was backlash from around the world. When Barack Obama took office in 2009, he pledged to close Guantánamo.
But politics quickly got in the way. He was able to decrease the population but faced legal challenges. Ultimately, no president has been able to close Guantánamo because once something is created outside the law, its impossible to bring it back inside the law.

It turns out that the American prison in Cuba – Guantanamo Bay – isn’t exactly how Harold and Kumar depicted it when they were incarcerated with terrorists and other international criminals and prisoners. Turns out, you can get sent there indefinitely with no scheduling of a trial, release date, and if you die: that’s on you! And yeah it was supposed to be closed, but Barack Obama was a little too busy to close down Guantánamo Bay it turns out.

The city was founded in 1797 in the area of a farm named Santa Catalina. The toponym "Guantánamo" means, in Taíno language, "land between the rivers".
Geography
Overview
The municipality is mountainous in the north, at Humboldt National Park, where it overlays the Sierra Maestra (mountains), and borders the Windward Passage of the Caribbean Sea in the south. It is crossed by the Bano, Guantánamo, Yateras, Guaso, San Andrés and Sabanalamar rivers. The city is spread with a square plan and is crossed in the middle by the Carretera Central highway. Guantánamo Bay is a natural harbour south of it.
During a hearing on Guantanamo Bay, Rep. Matt Salmon criticized Pres. Obama's attendance of a Cuban baseball game so soon after Brussels attacks.

De ganar MILLONES a ganar DIPLOMAS: Alexei Ramírez premiado en Cuba
El equipo Vegueros de Pinar del Río es sin dudas el conjunto más estable dentro de la actual Serie Nacional, esto ha sido sustentado por varios atletas, tales como William Saavedra, Yaser Julio González y Alexei Ramírez. Sus 19 juegos ganados con tan solo nueve perdidos lo mantienen cómodamente en la cima de la tabla de posiciones. El más cercano a los pativerdes resultó ser el conjunto Las Tunas, equipo que ganó 15 y perdió ocho en lo que va de campeonato, con cinco juegos de menos en su recorrido
La actuación del equipo líder del campeonato trajo consigo recientemente halagos de parte de sus seguidores y directivos provinciales. Con la intención de resaltar el buen trabajo de sus mejores atletas, se produjo un chequeo de emulación para el equipo. En el mencionado acto, resultaron destacados varios peloteros, entre ellos Alexei Ramírez, jugador ExMLB que se incorporó a la nómina
La noticia fue compartida por INDER Pinar en su Red Social Facebook. El chequeo de emulación del equipo fue desarrollado para estimular a los jugadores más destacados de los primeros 25 juegos. Acto que presenciaron las mayores autoridades de la provincia, incluida Daniellys Sánchez González, directora provincial de deportes
Durante el transcurso del suceso fueron resaltados varios atletas del equipo, entre ellos Alexei Ramírez. El ExMLB recibió un diploma de manos de las autoridades provinciales, premiándolo así como líder en hits y bases robadas.
Por otra parte, reconocieron a atletas como William Saavedra, Yaser Julio González, Juan Carlos Arencibia y Jorge Rojas. Además de Jenier Álvarez, Gabriel Cantero y Orisbel Borges. Todos ellos y al igual que Alexei Ramírez, recibieron diplomas en forma de distinción. De esta forma fueron «estimulados» los mejores peloteros de la provincia Pinar del Río
A lo largo de la historia de las Series Nacionales, el trágico fallecimiento de algunos de sus protagonistas ha enlutado a la fanaticada. Muertes prematuras provocadas por accidentes, enfermedades, eventos meteorológicos adversos, e incluso asesinatos; han detenido bruscamente carreras deportivas en ascenso de jóvenes figuras que ya se habían ganado el respeto y el arrobo de la familia beisbolera en todo el país

Más acá en el tiempo también fueron víctimas de actos violentos los lanzadores Enrique Cutiño (Santiago de Cuba), quien fue apuñalado en una riña callejera, Eddy Nelson Savón (Guantánamo), fallecido durante una trifulca familiar, y Arcilio Dionisio Rodriguez (Villa Clara), asesinado en el pedraplén que conduce a Cayo Santa María
En este siglo, varios accidentes automovilísticos troncharon las vidas de valiosos peloteros. Uno de las perdidas más sentidas fue la del camagüeyano Miguel Caldés en diciembre de 2000, cuando el auto en que viajaba fue impactado por una locomotora en un pase a nivel.
Otra perdida sensible fue la del lanzador artemiseño Yadier Pedroso, a solo unos días de cumplir 27 años, cuando el auto en que se encontraba chocó con un transporte de carga en una carretera de su provincia natal
En este oscuro listado también se incluye Frank Tamayo, receptor de Santiago de Cuba, quien perdió la vida a la edad de 28 años al impactarse contra un árbol mientras conducía una motocicleta en estado de embriaguez y Andrés Luis Martínez, lanzador zurdo camagüeyano, atropellado por un camión mientras se trasladaba en una bicicleta
Otros fallecimientos menos mediáticos también son los de los lanzadores Arnaldo Hernández (hermano del “Duke” y Liván), víctima de una enfermedad repentina, quien apenas logró jugar un campeonato con los colores de Metropolitanos; el de Osmani Tamayo, jugador de siete campeonatos nacionales, producto de un infarto cardiaco a los 30 años de edad; y la del prometedor espirituano Andy Fache, electrocutado al tocar una cerca perimetral en casa de un familiar cuando apenas contaba con 19 años de edad.
La última de estas muertes trágicas de peloteros cubanos que se desempeñaron en Series Nacionales fue la del también lanzador Miguel Alfredo González, el 24 de noviembre de 2017 a la edad de 34 años, en un accidente automovilístico ocurrido en la Habana.
