South Dakota regulators on Wednesday denied a construction permit for a carbon dioxide pipeline project, one month after a North Dakota panel did the same to a similar project by another company.Navigator CO2 Ventures wants to build a 1,300-mile pipeline network across Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota, to carry planet-warming carbon dioxide emissions from more than 20 industrial plants to be buried over a mile underground in Illinois.The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission voted unanimously to deny Navigator’s application for its Heartland Greenway pipeline. Chair Kristie Fiegen cited myriad reasons in her motion to deny, including the company’s lack of promptness and several objections to commission staff questions as well as struggles to notify landowners of routes and meetings. She detailed concerns related to safety, community growth, landowners and emergency responders, among other issues.The proposed South Dakota route encompassed 112 miles...Minnesota attorney general investigating predatory student-loan debt-relief companies

Vengeance, thy name is the pain of Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson.Is he ready to make the hated Raiders and the champion Chiefs pay?After getting buried by a mountain of criticism for doing a painful pratfall during his debut season in Denver, I asked Wilson on Wednesday if he kept the receipts.“I think you have to keep them in your back pocket,” replied Wilson, a mischievous grin lighting up his face.A little salty, don’t you think?And refreshing, especially from a quarterback whose words are usually as warm and soft as a puppy dog’s nose.But from the first time I met Wilson, way back when he was playing football for the Wisconsin Badgers, it was evident there’s a big chip on this little quarterback’s shoulder.While Wilson proudly wears his religious faith on his sleeve, if I correctly remember how Samuel L. Jackson devilishly misquoted Ezekiel 25:17 in “Pulp Fiction,” there can be heck to pay from a man who seeks vengeance with receipts in his back pocket.“Listen, I’m used to ...Stolen golf cart pursuit caught on camera

Authorities in the Inland Empire were involved in a less-than-high-speed pursuit of a suspect who allegedly stole a golf cart. The incident occurred just after 2:30 p.m. on Sept. 2, according to Sgt. Wilson with the Colton Police Department. In a video obtained by KTLA, a male suspect can be seen behind the wheel of the golf cart with officers trailing closely behind. As the man approaches the intersection of South La Cadena Drive and West Tropica Rancho Road, he is boxed in by another police cruiser. The suspect can then be seen fleeing the golf cart on foot, running across the road and jumping over the railing into what appears to be a drainage ditch just as more officers arrive at the scene.
