	Music Genre: Bomba - Music of Puerto Rico
		Although critics are uncertain about the exact origin of the bomba, it is generally agreed that it is derived from West Africa, through the importation of slaves to Puerto Rico from that region.
		Other bomba styles are named for the type of dance it is associated with, such as leró, which is a French derivative meaning "rose", in reference to the formation of the dancers that symbolized a rose.
		The bomba emerged as a very important expression to the system of slavery and a form of spiritual strength.

		Bomba is not a religious ceremony even though it does connect its participants into a profound spiritual experience when performed in a spontaneous context.
		Bomba performers, as they continue to choreograph a counter-history throughout time and space in the urban centers where such performative construction of the Puerto Rican body is imposed as a national discourse, are embodying resistance.

	The Bomba by Alex Pertout
		The Bomba is the most popular music and dance style found on the island of Puerto Rico.
		Traditionally the rhythm is performed using bomba drums; barrell shaped hand drums similar to the Cuban conga drums but slightly shorter, cuá; a pair of sticks on the side of a drum or log drum, and a single maraca.
		In this format the congas have substituted the traditional bomba drums, the cuá pattern is played on a woodblock or side of a drum, a cowbell pattern played by the timbal player has been added, and the Puerto Rican scraper known as güicharo is often incorporated.

	The Soviet Weapons Program - The Tsar Bomba
		The Tsar Bomba (referred to as the Big Bomb by Sakharov in his Memoirs [Sakharov 1990]) was the largest nuclear weapon ever constructed or detonated.
		The destruction and damage of buildings at much greater ranges than this which occurred was due to the effects of atmospheric focusing, an unpredictable but unavoidable phenomenon with very large atmospheric explosions that is capable of generating localized regions of destructive blast pressure at great distances (even exceeding 1000 km).
		Support for this idea may be drawn from the shape of the Tsar Bomba, a fat 2 m wide bomb, too wide to fit inside the Tu-95 bomb-bay.
