Updated

The coal industry in Queensland is struggling to keep up with its huge demand, with the state's most profitable industries expecting to lose some 2,000 jobs by 2025 as industry growth in other sectors falls.

The coal industry in Queensland is booming at a time when demand is falling.

The industry has been hit by steep falls in world coal prices and falling prices in the world's second largest economy for demand, partly thanks to China.

The coal industry employs a total of around 3.2 million Queenslanders.

The industry is expected to lose around 2,000 jobs over the next year by 2025.

Business in the Queensland business community said industry executives were not optimistic the industry could cope without further industry growth.

"We haven't been given the benefit of the doubt on where the bottom lies, or how much future growth is there," said Tony Wilson from Australian Coal Association Queensland.

The Queensland business community is not worried the industry has much room to grow, given the fact China is expected to reduce domestic coal imports from 2017, said Mr Wilson.

"I think the Australian economy, over the next five years will be in more or less the same position as it's been for the last five or six years.

"We are pretty much in that position," he said.

As well as employment, there is concern the industry is facing significant financial challenges.

"For the Queensland industry it's always a bit hard to sustain in the current environment. So that's a big concern," said Mr Wilson.

NEWBURY COUNTY, Conn. -- An 18-year-old former University of Connecticut football player has been sentenced to six years in prison for sexually assaulting two women, one of whom was a student at his high school.

Daniela A. Garcia-Lopez appeared in Superior Court on Tuesday, pleading guilty to charges of second-degree rape and sex with a minor. She was arraigned by Judge Joseph B. Focke to the lesser counts for each, and she was released on a $25,000 personal recognizance bond with the condition that she not leave the state.

She will also have to register as a sex offender.

Garcia-Lopez was arrested Aug. 23 in Newburyport at her home. During the arrest, she told police that she was involved in a romantic relationship with one of the women, a student at the university. When asked if she engaged in that relationship and was ever physically intimate with the women, Garcia-Lopez responded, "No," in response to a question about having sex with the women, the lawsuit states.

Garcia-Lopez admitted to having sexual contact with both of the victims and to having vaginal sex on one occasion with a male student, according to the lawsuit. Garcia-Lopez also admitted that when she was interviewed, she had admitted to having sexual contact with the female student, and she told officers she did not remember sex.

The school's attorney, Paul Zeller, argued that when Garcia-Lopez admitted to having sex with the female student and did not recall any sex with the male student, it was too late to seek consent and that Garcia-Lopez's initial guilty plea represented an opportunity to change her statement to police before they had a chance to question her and conduct an investigation.

According to court documents, the school's internal investigation of Garcia-Lopez's sexual conduct led to three different complaints regarding her alleged actions and conduct toward the women, none of which were referred to the school.

The university suspended her indefinitely pending the completion of her punishment.

She now faces up to five years in prison if she violates the terms of her bond, and up to ten years in prison if she violates the conditions of her bond. She will also be prohibited from having contact with any victims or any other students, and her name will be reported to the school sexual abuse center and that person would not be allowed to receive or use any funds.

In addition, Garcia-Lopez will have to participate in two sexual assault prevention counseling sessions, one conducted by a non-a";s:12:"comment_type";s:0:"";s:7:"user_ID";i:0;s:7:"user_id";i:0;s:7:"user_ip";s:13:"89.248.174.24";s:10:"user_agent";s:114:"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/67.0.3396.87 Safari/537.36";s:4:"blog";s:33:"http://chinesereadingpractice.com";s:9:"blog_lang";s:5:"en_US";s:12:"blog_charset";s:5:"UTF-8";s:9:"permalink";s:94:"http://chinesereadingpractice.com/2020/05/29/communist-folk-tales-the-secret-of-the-water-jug/";}
