Over the 2009-11 period, the U.S. military suffered a total of 14,627 casualties, according to the Pentagon’s Defense Casualty Analysis System and iCasualties, a non-governmental organization tracking Iraq and Afghanistan war casualties from published sources. Of that total, 8,680, or 59 percent, were from IED explosions, based on data provided by the Pentagon’s Joint IED Defeat Organization (JIEDDO). And the proportion of all U.S. casualties caused by IEDs continued to increase from 56 percent in 2009 to 63 percent in 2011. Little is known medically by doctors or scientists about what happens to a brain as a result of a powerful bomb blast, as opposed to car crashes on a highway, blows to the head on a football field or a bullet wound. These are the first wars in which soldiers, protected by strong armor and rapid medical care, routinely survive explosions at close range and then return to combat. The bomb blasts, which throw off energy waves — atmospheric overpressures and underpressures — that are absorbed by the body, add a little-studied dimension to the trauma. Scientists are only now beginning to study the extent of the damage. That soldiers are sometimes exposed to multiple blasts during a deployment, or can suffer from a vast combination of wounds, including shrapnel, burns, blows to the head, blast waves, lost limbs or internal injuries, can exacerbate brain trauma in ways unseen among civilians. “It is the black box of injuries,” said Dr. Alisa D. Gean, the chief of neuroradiology at San Francisco General Hospital and a traumatic brain injury expert who spent time treating soldiers at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany. “We’re at the tip of the iceberg of understanding it. It is one of the most complicated injuries to one of the most complicated parts of the body.” But the consequences of these concussions can be far-reaching, leading to financial problems, job losses, divorce and mental health issues. The ramifications often go unseen by the military because symptoms often worsen once veterans leave the structure of the Army or Marine Corps for the unpredictability of civilian life.

Uma breve informação sobre os "personagens" dessa montagem: os africanos pertencem à tribo Hereró, que ocupava os territórios da antiga África Oriental Alemã, no leste do continente africano que incluía os territórios que hoje são a Tanzânia, Burundi e Ruanda. Os hererós foram recolhidos em campos para serem exterminados (1904 - 1907) na mesma maneira como os judeus sob o nazismo - de fato, o extermínio dos hererós serviu como "ensaio" para as técnicas de extermínio em massa praticadas pelos alemães. Quanto aos "brancos", numa escala reduzida, se tornam como prsonagens de um conto de fadas, que é como viviam e se portavam no continente que estavam dominando e explorando. Um conto funesto e sangrento e que era cuidadosamente ocultado do mundo dito civilizado.

A brief information about the "characters" of the image: the Africans belong to the Herero tribe, which occupied the territories of the former German East Africa that included the territories that today are Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda. The Herero were gathered in camps to be exterminated (1904 - 1907) in the same way as the Jews under the Nazis - in fact, the extermination of the Herero served as a rehearsal for the techniques of mass murder committed by the Germans. As for "white" in small ways, become as prsonagens of a fairy tale, which is how they lived and behaved in the continent that had been dominating and exploiting. A fatal and bloody tale, carefully concealed from the so called civilized world.

Writing blanks também conhecidas como 'school pieces' ou 'Christmas pieces' eram folhas soltas impressas a partir de gravuras em cobre ou madeira, emitidos pelos vendedores de impressos (e, mais tarde, pelos livreiros para crianças), e vendidas para as crianças de um grande espectro sócio-conômico. Eram regularmente publicadas pelo menos duas vezes por ano, para a criança ir preenchendo os espaços em branco no centro da folha com a sua melhor caligrafia. Publicadas aproximadamente entre 1660 e 1850, as efêmeras writing blanks eram muito populares na segunda metade do século XVIII, quando foram publicados em grandes tiragens. Decoradas com gravuras ilustrando lições de história, geografia, ciências naturais e sagradas escrituras, bem como as fábulas de Esopo e obras populares de ficção em verso para as crianças, elas fornecem um registro valioso de um currículo formal e informal. Muitos também mostravam cenas da vida contemporânea, paradas militares, produções de teatro, batalhas navais, o que sugere uma familiaridade juvenil e participação na cultura popular e eventos atuais da época.

Writing blanks: "also known as 'school pieces' or 'Christmas pieces', these were single sheets printed from copper or wood engravings, issued by print sellers (and, later, children's booksellers), and sold to children across a broad socio-economic spectrum. 'Regularly published at least twice a year', they were intended as a form of sampler, the child filling in the blank space in the centre of a sheet with a set piece in her or his best penmanship.
Published between about 1660 and 1850, these highly ephemeral "school pieces" were increasingly popular in the second half of the eighteenth century, when they were published in large numbers, a development contemporary with the expansion of the children's book trade. Decorated with engravings illustrating lessons in history, geography, natural science, and scripture as well as Aesop's fables and popular works of fiction and verse for children, they provide a valuable record of a widely ranging formal and informal curriculum. Many also show scenes from contemporary life-the wild beasts at the Tower of London, a specific military review or theatre production, a naval battle, or a balloon ascension in Hyde Park, suggesting a juvenile familiarity with and participation in popular culture and current events (political, cultural and social)." *source by historical children's book scholar, Jill Shefrin
