stories on the BBC News Channel. That's all from | :00:00. | 3:59:59 | |
Good afternoon. A man has appeared That's all from me, stay with us | :00:00. | :00:10. | |
Good afternoon. A man has appeared in court in Omagh charged with the | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
murder of his partner. Mairead McCallion, 36, was found with head | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
injuries at a house in Castleview Court last Sunday and died the next | :00:17. | :00:20. | |
day. The accused is Noel Knox, 50, of Knockshee park in Omagh, who | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
appeared at the town's Magistrates' Court speaking only to confirm that | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
he understood the charge against him. Bail was refused and the | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
defendant, who denies the charge, will appear in court again later | :00:32. | :00:34. | |
this month. Two people have been arrested as | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
police investigate the sudden death of a man who was found with head | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
injuries in Coleraine. The 46-year-old was discovered outside a | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
house in Strand Road just before 4am. He died later in hospital. | :00:45. | :00:56. | |
A planned homecoming event in County Donegal tonight for John Downey, who | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
was charged with murdering four soldiers in the Hyde park bombing, | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
has been cancelled. A judge stopped the case against Mr Downey last week | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
because the accused had been sent a government letter telling him, | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
mistakenly, that he was not wanted by police. Supporters had organised | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
what was billed as a "welcome home dance" for him. But in a statement | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
issued by Sinn Fein, Mr Downey has said he has decided to cancel | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
tonight's event. He has said it was planned as a simple get-together and | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
he did not want it to be turned into a media circus. | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
Two men have been attacked and injured by a masked gang armed with | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
baseball bats and a hammer in Larne. Three men went into the house in | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
Greenland Parade shortly after midnight. Some damage was also | :01:41. | :01:43. | |
caused to a window and the front door. The victims' injuries aren't | :01:44. | :01:46. | |
thought to be serious. As two teachers' unions criticise | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
the way pupils with special needs are taught, a charity says too many | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
children are losing out. "Positive Futures" deals with learning | :01:54. | :01:56. | |
disabilities and autism and says the stress of trying to get a good | :01:57. | :01:59. | |
education is putting a lot of pressure on families. | :02:00. | :02:17. | |
Kirsty, 16, has been relying on home tuition for two years. Her family | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
realised she could not cope in mainstream or special schools. She | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
has a mixture of conditions including autism and believes there | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
is a lack of training for teachers working with pupils like her. Some | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
teachers were very good with my autism and anxiety. Some teachers | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
did not get me. They would have stood too close to me or shouted | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
right behind me or put their hands on me. The family are under huge | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
stress and one school specifically geared to order them. I have had to | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
leave work to be at home with her so that has been a big thing to come to | :02:59. | :03:05. | |
terms with. Everything has had such a huge effect on us as a family. | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
Kirsty Sage with lots to be in school and is far from being the | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
only one who cannot find a suitable replacement. Not an isolated | :03:15. | :03:22. | |
situation. I have had parents begin to me about the circumstances in | :03:23. | :03:26. | |
which their children find themselves were schools simply do not seem to | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
be able to go with or understand the issues their children present. The | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
family said his too wait for Kirsty, but they might want their experience | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
to help others. In Rugby, Tommy Bowe marked his | :03:42. | :03:45. | |
return to the Ulster team last night by crossing the line twice in a | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
five-try bonus point victory over the Dragons. The Pro 12 league clash | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
finished 38-8 at Ravenhill. Ruan Pienaar and Sean Doyle also touched | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
down. Paddy Jackson added the conversions while Pienaar also | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
kicked a penalty adding to the home side's total. | :03:59. | :04:04. | |
The Irish Football Association say they expect Northern Ireland's | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
friendly match in Cyprus to go ahead next week, after a referee's car was | :04:08. | :04:10. | |
damaged in a bomb attack near Nicosia yesterday. All first | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
division matches in Cyprus this weekend have been postponed. The IFA | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
chief executive Patrick Nelson says they are monitoring developments | :04:21. | :04:30. | |
ahead of the match on Wednesday. The latest information as the incident | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
would have nothing to do with international football and would not | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
put the game in jeopardy, however we are monitoring developments. We are | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
going to be in contact with the Cypriots if they later today and we | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
are waiting for the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to comment on it | :04:48. | :04:48. | |
and we are keeping an eye on it. It has been quite nice for the first | :04:49. | :05:04. | |
day of spring. Clothes are moving in from the Atlantic and that will | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
bring some rain. A lot of dry weather around. Quite chilly as the | :05:10. | :05:18. | |
breeze picks up. This weather front will come in across western areas | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
during the course of the day but probably not reaching the east coast | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
and the south-east until this evening. A few showers over Wales | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
and north-west England otherwise many parts will be drivers up. A | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
couple of hours of heavy rain, strong winds, but it does not last | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
and a good part of the night will be dry and clear. Some frost, fog and | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
ice on Sunday morning. More rain will be moving in from the west on | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
Sunday especially through the second half of the morning. An increasingly | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
wet and windy day to come on Sunday. Mid-afternoon on words it starts to | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
dry up and brighten up and maybe some sunshine before the end of the | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
day. A few wintry showers, and on Monday the showers could be wintry | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
over the hills, otherwise reasonably dry and braid. Not much changing as | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
we head into Tuesday and Wednesday. The second half of the new week will | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
be more unsettled and milder. That's it for now. Our next | :06:26. | :06:26. | |
television news is at 6:05pm. Nowadays we take the issue of | :06:27. | :06:37. | |
fairness in employment for granted. I have never felt it important | :06:38. | :06:40. | |
to ask anybody's religion when I'm going to employ them | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
as a sheet metal worker. This is the story of fair | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
employment in Northern Ireland. it masked a much greater problem | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
in terms of educational disadvantage. | :06:51. | :06:55. |
