Dozens of veterans across the state received recognition in the form of medals and badges Monday that officials said they should've gotten more than a decade ago.The medals and badges were earned while protecting our country at war and belong to brave men and women in Cambria County, but up until two months ago, they had been lost for more than a decade."They were found in a storage shed of a governor's outreach program," said Tricia Shaffer. "Somebody was cleaning it out and they were actually going to throw them away."But that's when another man stepped in and reached out to the director of veterans services in Somerset County to return the medals to their rightful owners."I don't know how many in all but I do know that Cambria County had the most," said Shaffer.Officials were able to track down 36 veterans in Cambria County.Some were there in person Monday to accept the awards themselves and some had family members there to accept for them while others are no longer here."Maybe whenever they ordered them or should have been given them back in 2000, 2001 maybe then they were alive," said Shaffer. "Unfortunately now they're not."For Ralph Weakland's family, the medals mean much more."I know that would mean a lot to my mom because she had no idea either," said Mary Rose Weakland, Ralph's daughter.His daughters said war is something he never brought up, and something their mother had always questioned."He wouldn't talk about it at all," said Mary Rose. "I mean, that was something that, no, and he never criticized mom stating it was his nerves, and I still don't know nothing.""I absolutely love my job, love the vets, love working with them," said Shaffer. "So for me, this gives me great pleasure being able to do this for them."The question everyone's probably asking is, how did this happen?Shaffer said she doesn't know, in fact, she said no one's certain.She said it's not uncommon for it take a while for awards to be delivered to veterans and their families and said many of them are too proud to ever even make a request.

I wrote an article "Past, Present, Future Acquisitions of Wireless and Communications Stocks" back in August which highlighted several of the recent acquisitions and rumors surrounding the communications industry. Looking back at the article I continue to be confident in regard to Dish Networks (NASDAQ:DISH) and its purchase of Blockbuster (OTC:BLOAQ). I believe the company is making all the right moves and is positioning itself to control the industry and perhaps become a leader in other areas of service as well.

Blockbuster has garnished a significant amount of publicity over the last month with DISH incorporating the service into its service plan. Back in August I wrote the Black Leather Zip 140mm following in regard to the DISH purchase of Blockbuster.

DISH may have viewed the purchase price as too good to pass up, but plans to let the company revive the stores and operate as an individual business. If DISH has these intentions in mind, then this acquisition was absolutely meaningless, since Green Suede Belle Zeppa 100mm the company went bankrupt with its business plan. However, if DISH plans to utilize the company with a service plan, then I believe the company will see large returns and profits.

I have been excited ever since I heard the news that DISH was acquiring Blockbuster's assets and even more excited since I learned that it was going to incorporate the service into its service plan for subscribers. DISH recently launched its Blockbuster Movie Pass that will allow Red Suede Belle Zeppa 100mm the customer to stream more than 3,000 movies to there TV and more than 4,000 to their computer. Subscribers can also choose between 100,000 DVDs, Blu ray, TV shows, and video games that are available by mail. This service will be available to DISH customers for $10 a month, with new customers receiving 3 months free, or 1 year free for signing a 2 year contract with the 200 channel package. I believe this service places DISH on a higher level than the competition with no other company offering a similar service with the same level of benefits. I believe the acquisition of Blockbuster directly affects two companies: Directv (NASDAQ:DTV) and Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX), and indirectly affects several more.

DISH Networks and Directv are in constant battle with each other, as both companies' advertising is geared towards the other. And while both companies offer advantages and disadvantage I believe the new services that DISH provides separate it from Directv, since Directv can not create a service that is competitive with Blockbuster's mail order program. And although Directv will push its services and try to evolve its technology, DISH will always remain competitive and offer similar services with a Movie Pass option that can not be matched.

It's expensive to stream movies from both DISH and Directv, yet both offer the service for its customers. In fact we can probably go through the list of what each company offers and we will probably find that both companies offer the same service under a different name. Directv has made a splash by offering its NFL Sunday Ticket for free to its new customers. This promotion will most likely have a big impact and result in a strong third quarter for the company. However, DISH offers the same service called the NFL Redzone but has chosen to market this service much less than its Blockbuster movie pass, since the mail order program will lead to long term gains. After Directv's Sunday ticket is no longer relevant how will the company separate itself from DISH Networks on a consistent basis? Both companies offer some form of NFL package yet Directv decided to focus its marketing on this promotion, while DISH has focused on a product that Directv can not offer. So if you're an investor the question is; how does Directv separate itself from DISH? My answer is that Directv can not separate itself from DISH, yet DISH can separate itself from Directv. This should shift the balance of power between the two companies since mail order DVD's and a remarkable streaming service is a luxury that the consumer desires.

Netflix experienced an unbelievable amount of success by streaming movies and providing mail order DVD's for one low price. And now DISH Network's Movie Pass will offer the same service at a cheaper price with more benefits such as Blu ray, videogames, and more choices. I believe this service will be the emergence of Blockbuster and will help drive the future success of DISH Networks because people forget that Blockbuster was the leader for many years and only went bankrupt because new competitors such as Netflix came along that offered the same service at a much cheaper price. Therefore, I believe this new service from DISH is quite ironic since Blockbuster's inability to compete with Netflix, and others alike, ultimately put it out of business and now Blockbuster will have the opportunity to return the favor.

I don't believe Netflix is capable of competing, long term, and I also believe that DISH finally found Black Suede Belle Zeppa 100mm a service that Directv cannot imitate. There is no other company that offers a digital TV package, internet TV from Google (NASDAQ:GOOG), and a mail order program in the same way as DISH. The company is directly outperforming all of its competition and creating a service that is beyond the reach of its competitors. The company can compete with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) by offering its Google TV, it competes with Netflix by offering mail order DVDs, and it competes with Directv by offering the same satellite services. But when you combine all of the services that DISH now offers and the strategic moves it's making for the future, which include Smartv with Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), the company is on a different level in which no other service provider can compete.

If we switch gears and look at this company through the eyes of an investor I believe that with a market cap of less than $12 billion it could be the best investment within the market over the next 10 years. Since 2009 the stock has gained over 100%, however it's lost 20% of its value since the market sell off in late July. The company has made several strategic moves that will result in growth and profit, which have been highlighted. However, the company is also believed to be shopping a wireless company. During an interview in San Francisco Dish Networks CEO Joseph Clayton said:

look at partnerships, acquisitions, all of the above, Clayton said today in an interview in San Francisco. Asked whether that could include buying or partnering with Clearwire or Sprint, he said: be. The CEO understands that it would be a project since the company lacks the infrastructure for immediate success in the wireless industry but most believe the technology could easily be obtained. Dish Networks is in a position where it can afford to make acquisitions and build its company with a large amount of cash. Although the company does have a much higher debt to assets ratio than I prefer, if it purchases companies that are in financial distress than it can build with acquisitions for a limited cost.

It's a known fact that Sprint (NYSE:S) needs additional financing especially after deciding to part ways with Clearwire (CLWR). The company is in no position to be making large expensive changes to its service, yet it feels the change is necessary, as most communication companies are switching to LTE technology. Sprint has posted $33 billion in revenue over the last 12 months and is now trading with a market cap of $6.6 billion. Therefore Dish could acquire a large holding in this company, or acquire the entire company, for very little cost.

Dish Networks CEO Joseph Clayton is making a splash in the communications industry and is building DISH into a dominant company. After the acquisition of Blockbuster, the partnership with Google, and the new technology with Intel I believe the company is well positioned for long term success within this industry, with the likelihood to exceed Directv in market cap over the next 2 years with its exceptional service. But if DISH were to purchase Sprint I believe the company could challenge Verizon (NYSE:VZ) over the next 5 years. Maybe not in wireless service but in overall value, both AT (NYSE:T) and Verizon are making attempts in the digital TV market. So why can't Dish Networks try its luck in the wireless industry? The only difference would be that Dish would have an established brand, and after seeing the marketing ability of Dish with Blockbuster I believe that the company is fully capable of building a successful wireless segment and competing with the largest companies within the communications industry.

Browns General Manager Ray Farmer hopes Josh Gordon does some soul searching during NFL banishment Browns Ohio

Browns General Manager Nude Patent Leather Love Me 100mm Ray Farmer made it clear he believes Josh Gordon's NFL career is on life support and questions whether the former All Pro wide receiver will use his latest suspension to resuscitate it.

It's official: Josh Gordon will not play in the NFL at Gold Glitter Love Me 100mm all in 2015, and isn't assured of playing in 2016, either. The NFL announced today that Gordon has been suspended and will remain suspended until after next year's Super Bowl.

Today marked the beginning ofDick LeBeau Monthin Pittsburgh, but tonight he's moving south. According to Jim Wyatt of the Tenneseean, the veteran assistant coachis expected to be named the Titans' assistant head coach/defense.

Ex Steelers defensive coordinator LeBeau says 'goodbye' to Pittsburgh TribLIVE

On Tuesday morning, Dick LeBeau was given a key to the city. By Tuesday night, he had reportedly been given the keys to the Tennessee Titans defense. LeBeau, the much admired Steelers defensive coordinator, who helped the team win Super Bowls in 2006 and 2009, found a new employer, according to a report in the Nashville Tennessean

Will the Cincinnati Bengals' playoff streak end in 2015? ESPN

There are so many days, weeks and months between now and the moment when the question above will officially be answered. But that doesn't mean we can't debate the merits of it at this time.

Cincinnati Bengals early long shots to win Super Bowl 50 ESPN

You knew this was coming. Just one day after Super Bowl XLIX's bizarre finish that gave the New England Patriots a 28 24 win over the Seattle Seahawks, Las Vegas oddsmakers already Nude Patent Leather Love Me 120mm started forecasting their favorites for winners of the next Super Bowl. The Cincinnati Bengals, not surprisingly, weren't among them.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank said Tuesday he has seen enough of the NFL's investigation of fake crowd noise at Atlanta's home games to acknowledge wrongdoing. The NFL is trying to determine if the Falcons pumped artificial crowd noise into the Georgia Dome for home games the last two years. Apparently, the answer is yes. Blank had a quick response when asked if there was a fine line for crowd noise not allowed by the league. "It's not really a fine line," Blank told The Associated Press. "I think what we've done in 2013 and 2014 was wrong. Anything that affects the competitive balance and fairness on the field, we're opposed to, as a league, as a club and as an owner. He makes every game more exciting to watch. There's the numbers, the ability, the juggling, yada, yada, yada. But take a peak around at the receivers playing in the Super Bowl. Who would you say was the biggest name among them? Julian Edelman, converted Kent State quarterback? Jermaine Kearse, undrafted out of the University of Washington? Brandon Lafell, Panthers cast off? These two teams offered the latest validation that receiver may be one of the most overrated positions in the game in terms of Black Patent Leather Love Me 120mm relation to wins.

Bridget Moynahan says Gray Suede Vicky Botta 120mm there is no bad blood between ex boyfriend Tom Brady, his new wife Gisele Bundchen and her, despite how it seems.

In an interview with More magazine, on whose cover Moynahan appears, the actress says, : "I never made a comment about Gisele or Tom publicly. I have a relationship with these people on a daily basis. I'm raising a child, and it's public""My son has two loving parents and an extended family, whether it's cousins or stepmothers or boyfriends. My son is surrounded by love."

Moynahan, who was pregnant with Brady's child when he began dating Bundchen, says the NFL superstar was not in the delivery room with her when she gave Red Leather Vicky Botta 120mm birth.

"He was not in the room. He was there on that day and came in afterwards. He certainly wasn't holding my hand while I pushed," she said.

She also revealed her fear at being a single mother: I can't help anyone make the decisionI don't Gray Suede Vicky 120mm think any girl grows up dreaming of being a single mom Every time my dad mentioned he had to go [home to Massachusetts], I'd start crying."But"There's not a second I regret having a child on my own."

Pranking is a time honored and often welcomed part of sports. Whether it be fans of rival teams or teammates having a laugh at each other's expense, pranks help us remember that sports, at the end of the day, are a game. And while some pranks run the risk of going too far, some hit that sweet spot between hilarity and mischief so well that they become just as much a part of sports lore as the games themselves.

Here are five sports pranks which stand the test of time.

Who would have known that MIT would make everyone forget about Harvard and Yale when the two Ivy League rivals met on the football field on November 20, 1982. Attention shifted from the action on the field to the sideline when a black balloon started to grow near the sideline. After it became apparent that the balloon had MIT scribbled all over it, the balloon popped. CBS's Brent Musberger even mistakenly reported that a bomb had floated onto the field and exploded.

Watch: Korean Councilman gets egged over baseball stadium

The really admirable thing about the MIT prank is that ">it took five years to come into fruition. Originally conceived in 1978, the original creators of the electrical device that would cause the balloon to inflate graduated before getting the opportunity to plant it on the field. The project was then uncovered by future MIT students who made sure that the prank was seen through to the very end.

Huskies Fans unwittingly cheered for Caltech at 1960 Rose Bowl

You know a prank is good when it gets its cheap nfl jerseys own name. In this case, Caltech's trolling of the 1960 Rose Bowl is known as "The Great Rose Bowl Hoax." Caltech students handed out signs to Huskies fans at the game between Washington and Minnesota, promising them that the collective signs would spell out "Go Huskies" when they lifted them simultaneously.

Watch: Kelly Slater's Wholesale NFL Jerseys China new music video

Of course, when the attendees did raise their signs, people all over the nation were perplexed as the signs actually said "Caltech", a school which not only had nothing to do with the Rose Bowl, but a school which had no football team.

The Lakers set up rookie Tony Bobbitt with Lucy Liu

Watch: Coach disagrees with penalty call, flips everyone off

During the 2004 05 season, Lucy Liu attended a Lakers game at Staples Center and rookie Tony Bobbitt was telling anyone who would listen that Liu was staring at him the whole game. The Lakers veterans immediately sprung into action. They had a ball boy bring Bobbitt a piece of paper with a phone number on it, and they told him to tell Bobbitt that the number was Liu's.

The phone number actually belonged to Lakers center Vlade Divac.

Divac got an employee to pose as Liu for his phone's voicemail and the team nfl jerseys china would message Bobbitt as the actress.

Eventually, Tony got a date with "Lucy Liu", only to show up at the restaurant to find his teammates waiting for him instead.

Jeff Francoeur thought that his non deaf teammate was deaf for weeks

In April, Jeff Francoeur found himself playing for the Padres Triple A team, the El Paso Chihuahuas. The team decided to have a bit of fun at Francoeur's expense as they had Jorge Reyes stay completely still at practice while all the other players shouted "heads up." Francoeur was then convinced by players and managers that Reyes was deaf and had gone through his entire life without saying anything.

Jordan Subban's chipped his teeth

Reyes' wife even got in on the fun, telling Francoeur that she communicated with her husband through gestures and texts.

This went on for a good month before the team finally stopped the charade and showed Jeff a video of what was going on behind the scenes. His reaction is priceless.

And this wasn't the last time he team would prank him.

Stanford trolled Cal fans by creating a fake Cal newspaper which stated that "The Play" was overturned

"The Play" is widely remembered as one of the greatest plays in college football history. The improbable last second touchdown by Cal stunned Stanford students but it didn't take Stanford Daily's staff long to think of a great comeback. That very week, the newspaper created a fake Daily Californian which stated that the NCAA had overturned the last touchdown of the game. Stanford students then travelled to Berkeley and posed as Cal students in order to pass out the fake Daily Cal paper.

Release dates for LeBron 12s

The Stanford paper even went as far as to fabricate a photograph of one of the referees calling the play dead amidst Stanford's band, which had run onto the field while the play was in progress. While some Cal students caught on quickly, others were tricked into believing Stanford's fake story.

If you think "hypocrite" is too strong a word for the people on this list, keep in mind that we're all hypocrites, in a way. Even the most fierce animal rights activist may really love the leather shoes some poor cow made possible. We're all human, and that's also true for the famous thinkers and activists below.

So we're not saying these people are all liars or that their books should be tossed in the garbage. It's just interesting to see how the human mind works.

9. George Orwell Teamed Up With Big Brother to Defeat CommunismIf you know George Orwell for anything, it's probably Animal Farm Wholesale Cheap Sunglasses and 1984, two novels that ripped the Soviet Union for their large and intrusive government, propaganda programs, surveillance, and lack of freedom of thought. His biting satire gave us terms like "Big Brother," "Cold War," and "thought police" and showed us a horrifying world in which you have to believe what the state tells you to, and if you dare to object, you might get dobbed by your best friend."Just admit that Picard is better."

Orwell should have added an addendum to his philosophy: You're free to believe in whatever you want, as long as it's not communism. That's not hypocritical per se, but as the Cold War raged on, Orwell's fear of the red menace grew to the extent that he put on his own thought policeman's cap and started reporting suspected commie sympathizers to the British government.

In 1948, Cheap Michael Kors Outlet Britain decided to form a secret government organization called the Information Research Department (IRD), whose goal was to spread anti communist propaganda. Orwell not only supported this organization, but agreed to work as an informer for them.

He barely managed to dodge the lightning bolt that came out of the sky after typing "insincere person."

In other words, the man who coined the term "Big Brother" was an instrumental part of Britain's own McCarthy style communist hunt. Although the system that Orwell helped put together wasn't exactly Orwellian (it didn't lead to any arrests or, as far as we know, extended visits to a room without windows), it's nevertheless doubleplus ironic that his anti propaganda novels were later used as propaganda by the IRD that funded and distributed them across different countries.

8. John Lennon Was Down With the IRAJohn Lennon will always be remembered, along with Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr., as one of those people who called for an end to violence and wound up having their own point made for them by the people who shot them to death.

Lennon did have one exception to his whole "no war" rule, however, and that was his partiality to the Irish Republican Army, a terrorist group that likes to settle their issues by blowing random people to bits with nail bombs.

Don't get us wrong in the conflict between the IRA and Britain, the British don't exactly have clean hands. In 1972, the British Army was being harshly chastised for shooting 12 unarmed people at a protest, an event that became known as Bloody Sunday. No one outside of Ireland was quite as outraged as Lennon, though, who not only wrote about it in the songs "Luck of the Irish" and the non U2 version of "Sunday Bloody Sunday," but also was quoted as saying, "If it's a choice between the British Army and the IRA, I'm with the IRA.""I am the phallus, doo doo d'douche."

Of course, Lennon never wrote any songs called "Ouch I Lost My Legs in a Belfast Restaurant," which may reveal that he had some bias in his no violence rule. A few years ago, a former IRA member told the Guardian that he'd met with Lennon in New York to discuss the possibility of Lennon performing a show in Ireland to raise money for the IRA. The spanner in the works was that at the time the Nixon administration was trying real hard to throw his ass out of the United States due to Lennon's lack of a hard on vibram five fingers outlet for the Vietnam War. Lennon was afraid that if he left, he might not get back in again, so he stayed put and never said anything about the IRA again.

7. Ronald Reagan Was a Rabble Rousing Union LeaderRonald Reagan is the closest thing the right wing has to a superhero. economy back to life with the other.

Nothing better illustrates Reagan's no bullshit conservatism than his stance on labor unions. When a bunch of punk ass air traffic controllers went on strike for higher wages and shorter workweeks, Reagan warned those commie bastards that he would fire every single one of them who didn't put their ass directly in their seat and get back to work. And despite the possibility of causing an airline industry disaster, he followed through with his threat.
