    As well as historians, in the construction of the historical narrative from the investigation of sources, cartoonists favor different aspects of the same object. João Spacca de Oliveira, who signed his cartoons as Spacca, was born in 1964, in São Paulo. He began his career as an illustrator at the age of 15. He concluded drawing and communication studies at FAAP in 1983 and debuted as a cartoonist at O ​​Pasquim in 1985. In the same year, he won a contest for new talents at Folha de São Paulo, for which he began to draw political cartoons until 1995, having made Sarney cartoons à la Fernando Henrique Cardoso. He collaborated with comic book magazines Níquel Náusea and Front, as well as working as a book illustrator. In this interview, we talk about his training, the development of underground culture, his work as a cartoonist for Folha, among other subjects. Currently a master's student in Social History at the University of São Paulo, it wouldn't be too much to say that Spacca is also a historian.Bem como os historiadores, na construção da narrativa histórica a partir da investigação das fontes, os chargistas privilegiam aspectos diferentes de um mesmo objeto.

    Murder - suicide is an event where a person kills another and then suicide. Murder - suicide is more rare than other forms of violent deaths, but it is certainly mostly tragic and usually more shocking than homicide or suicide when taken individually, especially when the event involves a mass murder. This chapter will present an overview of the main types of murder-suicide, outlining the most common features of the crime and providing some guidelines on prevention. Thematic context of homicide followed by suicide, including victim - perpetrator relationship, age, sex, race, ethnicity, and occupation in addition to precipitating factors, motivation, type of fatal injury, and location of event, is discussed. For each different category of crime the incidence of the phenomenon in the Italian context is given. The Italian data were collected in a span of 24 years (from 1 January 1985 to December 31, 2008), using the information disclosed by the state press agency and the four national newspapers of greater circulation. © 2012 Bentham Science Publishers.

Nevertheless, other degenerative diseases have to be considered. In this paper, pathology and imaging of degenerative spine diseases will be discussed, starting from pathophysiology of normal age-related changes of the intervertebral disk and vertebral body
