How Magnetic's Can Destroy Your Family VHS Tape Memories

MAGNETIC DAMAGE TO FAMILY VIDEO TAPES Magnetic tape damage is pretty common. Family tapes store video and audio information in the form of a magnetic strip. The VCR has special heads that can pick up on these magnetic signals and translate them into images and sound that plays on your TV.

After 1874, when the new game of lawn tennis swept the country, royal tennis became more fashionable again among the English aristocracy.  By the year 1900 the popularity of lawn tennis was so great that it was universally called "tennis" and the old game ha...
