45 Years After Apollo 13

Here is a great article in Ars Technica about a near disaster during NASA's third trip to the moon when an oxygen tank exploded in the Apollo Service Module and the effort required to bring the three astronauts back home alive.  It all happened 45 years ago this month.  I remember it well.

Livingston, MS Butcher Shop Stands Out

Hopefully a growing trend has taken seed in Livingston, Mississippi involving growing local food that is featured in local restaurants.  In my home, we have shifted to grass fed beef and limited amount of grass fed dairy (butter mostly).  I'm seeing more and more grass fed beef in local supermarkets and I hope we see more in local restaurants here in Knoxville, Tennessee.  Read about the breakthough in Mississippi here.  I hope they exceed beyond their expectations.

Paul W. Klipsch Items on Display at the 2015 CES

 



At this year's CES, Klipsch Group will be displaying several historical artifacts linked directly to the legendary Paul W. Klipsch.  Click here for a link.

I had the pleasure of attending a lecture on acuoustic theory by Paul Klipsch when I was in college in 1972 at Henderson St. University.  One of my college buddies was arrested for wearing a t-shirt with the Klipsch "B*** S*** moto a few years later in Fayetteville, AR due to an ambitious local prosocuter.  The story made the "Grapevine" alternative newspaper.  The charges were dropped.

I now have two Klipsch Forte spearkers, two Kg4 speakers, and several S4i Headphones for our iPhones.  They all provide amazing audio free of distortion.
