Queensland’s government has warned Indian mining giant Adani it must finance the controversial Carmichael coal mine on its own. “All dredge material will be placed onshore on existing industrial land”, the spokesman reportedly said.

Danny Woodhead: 8 touches in the first half against the Dolphins and scored 3 TDs.

Branislav Ivanovic , Pedro and Oscar scored the goals to lift them to 15th, albeit still only four points above the bottom three. Many Premier League observers will suggest that the Foxes will not be able to carry on this form for the rest of the season.

Woodhead scored a career-high four touchdowns it possibly the team’s final act in San Diego. Today might have been his last game in San Diego after 12 seasons, with the team likely moving to Los Angeles soon. But his performance was overshadowed by tears and sniffles as a team which has been in town since 1961 could exit. It is down to three teams that we know of: the Rams, Raiders, and Bolts. “It will be interesting, but those guys will fight, and if that’s what we’ve got, we will make a go of it”. Some players lingered until 6 p.m., while fans belted out “San Diego Super Chargers”, a disco dirge.

Indeed, that winning mentality is part of the 44-year-old’s nature, and he is unlikely to let his standards slip over the next six months.

Gordon was hurt late in the second quarter of Sunday’s emotional 30-14 victory against Miami, which might have been the Chargers’ last game in San Diego if Dean Spanos can get his fellow owners to approve a move to an industrial suburb of Los Angeles. “That’s when it’s just kind of like, ‘Man, they’ve been here the whole time I’ve been here.’ I think you just realize it affects more people than just (us)”.

He had three carries for five yards and three catches for eight yards last week against Kansas City, and he had three carries for 10 yards and three catches for 24 yards two weeks ago against Denver. Rivers was intercepted by Reshad Jones, who weaved through traffic for 42 yards before guard Orlando Franklin stripped the ball. The Chargers made the playoffs four years in a row (2006-2009) once Rivers took over the offense, including making the AFC Championship game. After searching for a stadium solution in the city for more than a decade, the Chargers have gone all-in on the potential move to Carson. Instead, he sees the remaining games as a chance to create momentum toward 2016. “Hopefully they’ll come to their senses”.

Some fans brought signs deriding Spanos.

Injury updates: Campbell said he didn’t have anything new to report in regard to the injury status of center Mike Pouncey (foot), offensive tackle Branden Albert (knee) and linebackers Chris McCain (knee) and Koa Misi (back).

“[The city] seems to be doing everything humanly possible, including doing back flips, to try to get them to stay”, Plummer said. I guess I would liken it to a child that’s going through their parents’ divorce.

Grimes was credited with two passes defenses and had one of the Dolphins’ two interceptions. It appears Gates is toying with coming back for another season, but with his contract expiring, there’s no guarantee it would be with the Chargers. “All I have to do is go out and do what I do”.
