Had an offer from the British Columbia Lions of the Canadian Football League to play quarterback but chose to switch to receiver and play in the NFL. "It was hard for the fact that you never played the other position [receiver], so you have a huge road ahead of you to learn something at the highest level in the world to it. But the easy part was that you didn't grow up wanting to go to the CFL. I grew up wanting to go to the NFL, having that dream," he said.

2014 - NFL Pro Bowl - AFC Special Teams Player of the Week (Wk. 9)

Standout College QB to NFL Wide Receiver
Edelman began his college football career with a year at the College of San Mateo (Calif.) before transferring to Kent State where, as a senior, he completed 56 percent of his passes (153 of 275 passes for 1,820 yards) with 13 touchdowns. He was also the leading rusher, gaining 1,551 yards on 215 attempts (an average of 7.5 yards per carry) and scoring 13 touchdowns. His offensive numbers broke Kent State's single-season record for total offense set by Joshua Cribbs in 2003. Said head coach Bill Belichick on the versatility of Edelman: "He played the quarterback position in college at Kent State and all the positions really that he's played in the NFL – covering kicks, returning kicks, slot receiver, outside receiver, slot defender – he didn't do any of those things in college. I think that really speaks to his versatility and how much he's grown as a player and how many things he's learned how to do that he really didn't have much experience with in college. I'd say that's pretty unusual, especially to be as competent in them as he is."
Born May 22, 1986, to Angie and Francis Edelman.
H As senior at Woodside (Calif.) High School in 2004, led the Wildcats to a 13-0 record and Central Coast Section championship and was named first-team all-league and all-county.
H Totaled 2,237 passing yards and 29 touchdowns in his high school career and also rushed for 964 yards and 13 touchdowns.
H Majored in business management at Kent State.

about Champers Bingo
Isle of Man (Cozy Games Limited)
Champers Bingo verdict
This site is now closed. Check our list of the best Cozy Games sites still open.
Champers Bingo aims to create a luxurious environment in which to play and win bingo games and slots on desktop PCs and mobile devices. It's a member of the Live Bingo Network (LBN) and runs on Cozy Games software, and as part of its mission to treat its players like VIPs, it offers a no-deposit bonuses, a welcome bonuses, a community blog where you can mingle (while drinking something bubbly, of course) with other roomies, and a host of attractive jackpot games and promotions. So, will Champers Bingo make you pop your cork, or will you find it disappointingly flat?
Some Cozy Games sites are very basic when it comes to design, but Champers manages to look more glitzy and glamorous than most by using a champagne bottle in its logo, and a smart and attractive black and gold colour scheme. In fact, it's got more of an online casino feel to it, which is no bad thing, and we like how they've managed to include details of four special offers as well as a scrollable mini-lobby onto the homepage without making it seem overcrowded.
The main menu is easy is use, and lets you hop between the different pages including Promotions, Winners, Games, Contact Us, and Mobile. There are also prominent links to the Live Help facility and Facebook page (Champers' Facebook not LBN's, we're pleased to add) fixed to the right-hand side, and a section at the top-right that lets you log in, register, or request a password reset.
Champers Bingo excels at customer service, offering 24/7 support seven days a week all year round. You can use the online email form, submit a support ticket, speak to an agent via live chat, or ring the telephone number provided.
If you get a distinct sense of déjà vu when you view the Promotions page, it's because all of the offers are the same throughout the Live Bingo Network. Without meaning to detract from the admirable assortment of free bingo games, jackpot events, cheap ticket offers, welcome bonuses, and loyalty scheme which are impressive if it's the first time you've seen them, it's a shame that a site with a luxury theme can't accommodate a couple of exclusive and out-of-the-ordinary offers.
There are multiple bonuses to take advantage of, starting with the £10 no-deposit bonus you gain when you sign up and add a valid debit or credit card. There are also welcome bonuses available on your first three deposits of £10+ each, which give you a combined total of 1150% extra. Before you can withdraw any associated winnings, however, you must first meet the 4x bingo or 10x slots wagering requirements.
On your future deposits, you can claim between 25% and 100% casino cash, and providing you deposit at least £10, you'll also receive as many as twenty free cards for the weekly Mega Jackpot and monthly Super Jackpot games.
Cozy Games software powers Champers Bingo, and if you've played at other LBN sites such as Comfy, Scrummy, and Bob's Bingo, you're likely to recognise its design and lobby straightaway. It provides a good quality and reliable playing experience, and offers side games, a pre-buy facility, and chat.
There are always chat hosts visible in the rooms, and although the site isn't all that busy at non-peak hours, the jackpot rooms do attract lots of players.
Because it's a networked site, Champers doesn't offer any exclusive variants or other unique game types. However, there are still five bingo variants to enjoy.
As the Mobile page explains, almost every smartphone and tablet is compatible with Champers Bingo, and although there's no mobile app, the mobile site doesn't require Flash player so you can play via your internet browser without any issues. The only downside is the chat function doesn't work on mobiles.
Champers is regulated and licensed by the Isle of Man Government and the UK Gambling Commission. The website displays a Trustwave certificate to show that it protects your financial transactions via data encryption, and the iTech Labs certificate shows that the random number generator (which is used to ensure fair game outcomes) has been independently tested.
Champers also has pages for its privacy policy and terms and conditions, and provides information on responsible gaming.
The celebratory Champagne theme of Champers Bingo might be unique, but the remainder of the site offers players nothing new. If you're a first-timer at LBN or Cozy Games' brands, you'll find plenty to keep you occupied, but if you're already a member of other sites in the network, you may quickly tire of the identical promotions and games selection.
As far as variety goes, there are 90-ball, 80-ball, 75-ball, 50-ball, and 30-ball rooms to choose from, which is more than many bingo sites can boast. There's also a varied selection of slots and scratch cards, but no well-known titles from big online software developers like NetEnt or Microgaming, and the casino and video poker games are all safe, common choices.
Making deposits and withdrawals is nice and easy thanks to the well-designed banking system. If you're eligible for any bonuses, you can select them accordingly, and you can also enter promotional codes into the boxes provided.
The withdrawal process takes an average of two to three working days, but there are two things that you need to be aware of when cashing out. Firstly, you can only submit one withdrawal request every five working days, and secondly, the minimum deposit amount is £30.
The payment methods include Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, Solo, Switch, Boku (Pay by Phone), Paysafecard, and Neteller.
Instead of offering a special VIP service, Champers uses the standard LBN loyalty system which includes four levels (Silver, Gold, VIP, and SVIP). The Loyalty page explains how many loyalty points you need to accumulate to move up through the levels. The two main benefits of the system are the ability to convert your LPs to cash, and the redeposit bonuses which are more generous at the higher tiers.
When you first feast your eyes on Champers Bingo, you could almost miss the fact that it's a part of the Live Bingo Network. It's slick, high-class design and theme are both original and inviting, but underneath the cover, all that's on offer are the standard LBN games and offers. In summary, if you've played at other Cozy/LBN sites, Champers probably won't add any extra value to your existing online bingo experience. However, if you're a newbie, you'll find a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, plenty of bonuses and special offers, and lots of attractive prizes to play for.

INDIA TO BE PLACED ON PAR WITH AMERICA'S NATO ALLIES FOR EXPORTS
An article on QRIUS on 4th July says that the US Senate has passed legislation to accord India the same status as its other US allies, such as South Korea, Japan and Australia. The legislation paves the way for improved maritime security and advanced technology transfer between the 2 countries. The National Defense Authorisation (Amendment) Act contains the proposal to increase US-India defence co-operation in the Indian Ocean in the areas of humanitarian assistance, counterterrorism and counter-piracy. When enacted, it will thus ensure that the US State Department treats India as a non-member NATO ally for the purposes of the Arms Export Control Act.

US SANCTIONS REGULATOR OUTLINES EXPECTATIONS FOR GLOBAL SANCTIONS COMPLIANCE: IMPACT ON PRIVATE EQUITY
On 3rd July, Hogan Lovells published a briefing saying that The Framework for OFAC Compliance Commitments offers private equity and other fund managers a detailed insight into OFAC's expectations with respect to an organisation's sanctions compliance programme for the first time. The Framework outlines 5 components OFAC considers to be essential for an effective risk-based sanctions compliance programme, and OFAC also highlights "root causes" of sanctions violations. The briefing says that the Framework is particularly relevant following the Government's escalation of sanctions, such as its recent re-imposition of sanctions against Iran and Cuba. The new OFAC guidelines not only apply to US companies generally, but also to non-US companies which may find themselves subject to US sanctions laws, such as non-US companies that conduct business in or with the US, that employ US citizens or that use US-origin goods or services.

A REFLECTION ON THE CURRENT STATE OF PLAY REGARDING HOW EEA FIRMS CAN PROVIDE FINANCIAL SERVICES INTO THE UK POST-BREXIT
On 2nd July, an article from Allen & Overy says that it is unlikely that clarity on the Brexit saga will be forthcoming any time before 31st October. It warns that a hard Brexit would result in UK financial services providers losing their rights to provide products and services into the EU. This gives rise to a 'cliff-edge' risk of market disruption as it may become unlawful for UK providers to undertake new business, and potentially even to service existing business, in the EEA. In the UK, it says, both the legislator and the regulators have taken extensive action to ensure that EEA firms and other market participants accessing the UK market are provided with a high level of comfort that their access rights will be maintained (for a time limited period), whatever the outcome of the political negotiations; but that it is clear that recognition of trading venues on either side of the channel is a political pawn in the Brexit game.

CITY COUNCIL SECURES £350,000 IN COMPENSATION FOR VICTIMS DEFRAUDED BY LOCAL PLUMBING COMPANIES
Local Government Lawyer on 4th July reported that victims of 2 plumbing companies who defrauded their clients have been fully compensated for their financial losses, after Southampton City Council prosecuted the individuals involved. 8 defendants were found guilty of money laundering and fraud offences, and a further defendant had previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to defraud. Between them the 9 defendants had paid, or had been ordered to pay, compensation totalling more than £350,000, and this figure is said to increase as subsequent compensation payments are scheduled to be paid up until July 2020. The trial followed a 4-year investigation by the city council's Trading Standards team, which put evidence before the court of 177 victims, who had paid sums varying from £200 to more than £18,000 for plumbing and drainage work.

HUMAN RIGHTS AND INTERNATIONAL MINING DISPUTES
On 2nd July, Clifford Chance published a briefing saying that mining activities are accompanied by a high risk of adverse impacts on human rights. Mining operations are complex, and managing the associated risks is challenging, but failing to do so effectively increases the potential for disputes. The briefing discusses the ways in which human rights issues typically arise in mining projects, assesses recent efforts by the mining industry to address those issues – spurred by stakeholder pressures and legislative developments – and considers the variety of dispute resolution methods that are utilised to seek remedy against businesses for alleged human rights harms associated with mining operations. It considers the key role played by the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGP), the global authoritative standard on business and human rights, in framing the way in which disputes arise in the sector.

IMPORTANT UK SUPREME COURT RULING ON RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS
On 3rd July, Eversheds Sutherland published a briefing reminding one that contractual terms which aim to prevent an employee from joining a competitor immediately after leaving employment are, in principle, unenforceable unless they are necessary to protect a legitimate interest of the former employer and are reasonable with reference to the interests of the parties and of the public. The briefing is concerned with a case where the Supreme Court has overturned a decision of the Court of Appeal, finding that a contractual restriction purporting to limit a former employee from "engaging, being concerned or interested in" any competing business after leaving was an unreasonable restraint of trade because the restriction was too widely drafted.

UK: ADMISSIBILITY OF WRITTEN STATEMENTS AND THE USE OF DIGITAL SIGNATURES
A Q&A from the Police National Legal Database on 3rd July asked: is a written witness statement admissible as evidence if it has a digital signature, or is a 'wet signature' required? It also asked if there are any rules regarding the admissibility of digital signatures on statements? The answer explains that, although a 'wet signature' can still be applied, there are no requirements in legislation for such a signature to be used; the requirement for a signature can always be accommodated using digital materials and electronic methods of transmission, where possible; and any doubts as to the provenance, authenticity or integrity of a digital document containing a digital signature would need to be tested in the same way that they would be tested in respect of a traditional 'wet' signature on paper. It says that it is arguable that an e-mail from a named e-mail account could also be considered to 'purport to be signed' by the account holder, particularly so if it is a secure account and one that requires a password to obtain access.

ALBANIA'S SELF-CONSUMING CORRUPTION IS UNDERMINING ITS PATH TO EU ACCESSION
On 4th July, Emerging Europe carried an article saying that NATO member Albania, which Transparency International rates as one of Europe's most corrupt countries, has only made limited progress in combating corruption, including money laundering and bribes, despite firing crooked judges and prosecutors. European ministers met in Luxembourg last year and agreed to open talks, but in June the decision was unexpectedly postponed. Many EU countries see the political tension in the country as a sign that Albania is not yet ready to join. The leaders of the main political parties are accusing each other of corruption, while seeking the power to rule the country which is facing major problems. The opposition called the protests, but the Washington Post recently revealed that its leader, Lulzim Basha, and 2 other party officials have been accused of illegally spending about $650,000, which is linked to Russia through a lobbyist and a foreign company. This, it says, is nothing new – 8 years ago, Ilir Meta, the current president, appeared in a video that was leaked to the media, discussing a $700,000 bribe.

UK: 'PROFOUND AND FAR-REACHING' POLICING REFORM URGENTLY NEEDED, SAYS CHIEF INSPECTOR OF CONSTABULARY
On 4th July, Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Constabulary warned that profound and far-reaching aspects of police reform are needed, or services face unacceptable compromises in quality of service levels of public safety. This was as the Inspector published the Annual Assessment of Policing in England & Wales 2018. Most police forces are said to be performing well, and praised the police for their integrity and bravery. But he also called on leaders in police forces and institutions to make bold and long-term decisions to improve policing. He said there was continued controversy about the 43-force structure of policing in England and Wales, with a need for the police service to function as part of a single law enforcement system.

JIHADI NETWORKS USING FACEBOOK TO TRADE LOOTED ANTIQUITIES STOLEN FROM WAR-TORN COUNTRIES
On 4th July, Illicit Trade carried news of a report which says that Islamist terrorist networks are using Facebook Groups to trade looted antiquities stolen from conflict zones such as Syria, Libya and Yemen. An analysis of 95 Arabic-language Facebook Groups set up to facilitate the trafficking of looted antiquities, a group of volunteer anthropologists, discovered that such items are being traded by members of violent extremist organisations. These are said to be actively using the Groups to trade antiquities stolen from war-torn countries across the Middle East and North Africa, including items that were looted by Daesh in Iraq and Syria before the final collapse of its so-called caliphate in March. Administrators of these Groups are highly interconnected and have a global reach, the report stating that a US antiques dealer is linked with one individual involved with the running of multiple trafficking pages on Facebook. The 95 Groups analysed for their study were managed by 488 individual administrators, and had 1,947,195 members.

SHOULD/CAN I BREACH CONFIDENTIALITY TO REPORT SUSPECTED CRIMINALITY?
On 3rd July, Allen & Overy published a useful and interesting briefing saying that a recent case throws up some interesting issues concerning when it is OK (and when it is not OK) to breach confidence in order to report suspected criminality. The case concerned some private investigators who decided to report their clients for suspected criminal conduct, rather than keep confidential the results of their investigation. The private investigators had signed a retainer containing strict confidentiality provisions with another entity acting on behalf of the FBME bank. They relied on the public interest defence, and it was common ground that the starting point when looking at the public interest defence is the 'defence of iniquity'. However, the court drew a distinction between regulators and law enforcement agencies in the UK and US, finding that disclosures to law enforcement agencies were not capable of attracting the defence of public interest and were therefore a breach of confidence – on the other hand, disclosures to regulators in the relevant countries (Tanzania and Cyprus in this case) would have been capable of falling within the defence. The private investigators were also found in breach for failing to notify the supply of information to a third party, and failing to deliver up confidential documents if requested. A problem highlighted was the wide-ranging scope of the disclosure made – the "dumping" of all the information obtained on law enforcement – if the disclosure had been more focused, the court felt some of it might have been justified on public interest grounds. The article concludes that there is no general duty to report suspicions or knowledge of criminality by a third party – though those who operate in a regulated sector may have specific requirements upon them to report suspicions of money laundering or terrorist financing. For others, whether or not to report suspicions is a matter of choice, and in any case, disclosure should be targeted and must evidence the allegation(s) made.

[Originally posted January 31, 2023] Authorities are searching 1,400 kilometers (870 miles) of Australia's Great Northern Highway, between Perth and the remote town of Newman, for a lost sealed-source capsule containing cesium-137. The source was part of a density gauge used by mining company Rio Tinto at its mining operations in Western Australia.
The Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) of Western Australia reported that the density gauge containing a 6-mm-diameter (0.24-inch-diameter) by 8-mm-height (0.31-inch-height) source capsule was sent by flatbed truck to Perth for repair, leaving Rio Tinto's Gudai-Darri mine site in Western Australia on January 12 and arriving in Perth on January 16. The package containing the gauge, however, was not inspected until January 25.
Upon opening the package, it was found that the gauge was broken apart with one of four mounting bolts missing. The source itself and all screws on the gauge were also missing. It is assumed that vibrations from the truck broke the gauge apart and allowed the screws and capsule to fall through the bolt hole and away from the truck. DFES said they were notified of the loss on the evening of January 25.
