He's on my Dad's mother side and from what I can tell goes back to a long line of Germany & Austria Military and Marine Officers,  and that very interesting because until today (Nov 11th, 2015) not much was known about Adam and the Becks; And, this new bit of information will help us to learn more about he and his family as well adding to the long history and tales of my family in the Military. 


From all of us to all Veterans; Bless you for your services and to family that paid the ultimate sacrifice. And curse the politicians that put you in harms way for political gains alone.

They made this statement after studying chess players. ( click here for reasonable explanation as to why chess masters) as subject matter for what it takes to be considered expert minds.  In his book OUTLIERS Malcom Gladwell broke it down to 10,000 hours which if you think about is about at 5.5 hours of it a day everyday. . Funny one of last nites Grammy nominated, presenters said that they were humble and willing to wait since 1 of the bands nominated for best new band had been around for 10 years.     So lets look at Socialmedia.  For most this has been around for a very short time in fact so short that in 2006 I put up ...
