:00:07. > :00:10.The enterprise minister Arelene Foster has described a petrol bomb

:00:11. > :00:13.attack on the home of a man working for a shale gas exploration company

:00:14. > :00:17.in County Fermanagh as a disgraceful and cowardly act.

:00:18. > :00:20.Two petrol bombs were thrown at the house in Letterbreen

:00:21. > :00:45.Our South West reporter Julian Fowler reports.

:00:46. > :01:01.Two weeks ago, they began to secure this quarry where it wants to drill

:01:02. > :01:08.a borehole as part of its exploration licence. Yesterday

:01:09. > :01:12.morning, two petrol bombs were thrown at the home of one of the

:01:13. > :01:15.site workers. The company says it follows a number of unlawful

:01:16. > :01:19.incidents and threats to security staff. Hundreds of people have been

:01:20. > :01:22.involved in peaceful protests outside the gates. Local campaigners

:01:23. > :01:25.have condemned the attack. From our point of view we went to diss

:01:26. > :01:31.associate ourselves with this. We have a code of conduct which is

:01:32. > :01:33.non-negotiable. The environment minister has seven more days to

:01:34. > :01:35.decide if the borehole to collect rock samples can go ahead. It will

:01:36. > :01:38.not involve fracking. There have been a lot of very misleading

:01:39. > :01:40.statements made recently, some very ignorant statements made and I hope

:01:41. > :01:43.that people recognise that this is not just a matter for me or indeed

:01:44. > :01:45.for the Minister of environment, it is a matter for the entire

:01:46. > :01:48.Executive. We need people to come together. People in the West need to

:01:49. > :01:51.fight fracking. We need to ensure the protests are kept peaceful. We

:01:52. > :01:53.must protest in a way which does not impact on anybody's health and

:01:54. > :01:59.safety. The police are investigating the attack. They want to speak to

:02:00. > :02:01.the driver of a dark coloured Audi estate car seen in the road at the

:02:02. > :02:03.time. Specially trained victim recovery

:02:04. > :02:06.dogs are being used in a fresh search for

:02:07. > :02:09.a murdered teenager in Portadown. Caroline Graham went missing

:02:10. > :02:11.in the town 25 years ago. The police have launched a new

:02:12. > :02:14.search at a house in Hanover Street where the 19-year-old was living

:02:15. > :02:28.when she disappeared in March 1989. Whoever is responsible for this

:02:29. > :02:33.crime, whoever they are, I believe they may have discussed this over

:02:34. > :02:39.the past 25 years. If that is the case, and you have information, I am

:02:40. > :02:43.appealing directly to you to provide that information to my Ent enquiry

:02:44. > :02:46.team. A 31-year-old man has been arrested

:02:47. > :02:48.after a series of hate crimes Paint was thrown over a car and

:02:49. > :02:52.another vehicle had its windscreen One of the cars belonged to a Polish

:02:53. > :02:57.family and the police believe A short time later another

:02:58. > :03:00.windscreen was smashed Enquiries

:03:01. > :03:05.into the attacks are continuing. As part of the commemorative events

:03:06. > :03:29.is a candlelit vigil at A poignant and sombre service in

:03:30. > :03:32.honour of the war dead. Dignitaries, politicians and others came to

:03:33. > :03:37.remember the beginning of the great War. The Queen was represented this

:03:38. > :03:42.evening by the Duke of York. Also there, the Secretary of State, Irish

:03:43. > :03:49.Minister Heather Humphreys and the First Minister. We're here to mark

:03:50. > :03:53.the centenary of the beginning of the First World War. This we

:03:54. > :03:59.penitence and faith, contemplating the sacrifices that 100 years ago

:04:00. > :04:31.were about to be made. When people also remembered those who gave their

:04:32. > :04:55.lives, lighting a candle for every one of the five years of war. And

:04:56. > :05:15.the candle lit by Prince Andrew was placed beside one of the eight

:05:16. > :05:35.volumes of books kept in the cathedral which record the names of

:05:36. > :05:50.all those from across the island of Ireland who fought and died. I

:05:51. > :05:53.thought it was great that we had Mr Humphries from the Republic of

:05:54. > :05:59.Ireland taking part. Looking at these centenary is with a spirit of

:06:00. > :06:04.historical accuracy, inclusivity under consideration and help

:06:05. > :06:14.everyone move forward. There are lessons for this day and this

:06:15. > :06:24.generation. We see where business and division Leeds. It leads to

:06:25. > :06:30.conflict, death and injury. What is spelt out and meet is, what unites

:06:31. > :06:33.human beings is huge and wonderful. What divides human beings is small

:06:34. > :06:38.and mean. That sentence has come from the artist who was commissioned

:06:39. > :06:52.to do this. Bob, what is that sentence? What does it mean? It is

:06:53. > :07:06.inspired by the famous football match on Christmas Day which is a

:07:07. > :07:08.cliche but is actually true. It's not an apocryphal story. The Germans

:07:09. > :07:12.did engage in a football match with the British Christmas Day. The

:07:13. > :07:13.obvious thing about that powerful is that there were the same kinds of

:07:14. > :07:16.people fighting that playing on both sides. It is about saying for

:07:17. > :07:19.today's society, we need a new peace movement. It looks special. During

:07:20. > :07:22.the day, we had a chance look at the artwork in daylight. I know this was

:07:23. > :07:26.carried out by various community groups. What did you think of the

:07:27. > :07:31.way they carried your work? Enormously proud of it because we

:07:32. > :07:45.had different groups from all across Belfast, a city which knows about

:07:46. > :08:06.division. You had all these different groups and they have all

:08:07. > :08:14.come together to make this which is a statement about peace. It has been

:08:15. > :08:15.a moving experience. We had lesbian and gay groups. We had a group

:08:16. > :08:15.called arts sector. It has been great doing it. You can see it

:08:16. > :08:16.tonight but unfortunately, that is the last opportunity because it will

:08:17. > :08:17.be packed up by midnight and it will be away tomorrow. Just to say at the

:08:18. > :08:18.last minute, between ten o'clock and 11 o'clock, people have been asked

:08:19. > :08:18.to turn out the light and have a single candle to remember people who

:08:19. > :08:22.died in the war. Torrential rain over the weekend

:08:23. > :08:24.caused landslides in County Antrim, as around fifty millimetres

:08:25. > :08:27.of rain fell in just a few hours. The downpours brought havoc to

:08:28. > :08:29.farmers, as Louise Cullen reports. Friends, family and fans gathered

:08:30. > :08:32.at the Queen's Pavilion this evening to welcome Northern Ireland

:08:33. > :08:55.athletes back home after On Saturday, we were coming back

:08:56. > :09:06.from seeing a friend and we looked up. This ground looked funny. My

:09:07. > :09:11.friend said there is a landslide. As we walked up, it was dramatic

:09:12. > :09:17.watching half the mountain slide down with the force of the water. It

:09:18. > :09:23.was the first time people here had seen anything like it. My father

:09:24. > :09:28.says he has never seen anything like it. They were clumps of clay the

:09:29. > :09:33.size of cars moving. It is amazing to see. Work is underway to get the

:09:34. > :09:37.road cleared and open to traffic again but this is a rural area. They

:09:38. > :09:42.were not any properties under threat but it was a different story in one

:09:43. > :09:48.of the other glands. The rain also caused for landslides in these

:09:49. > :09:51.mountains. They crashed down the slopes, bringing stones, trees and

:09:52. > :09:57.destruction to this farm and guesthouse. The stream has broken

:09:58. > :10:00.out and I ran out thinking I would need to put a stone to stop the flow

:10:01. > :10:06.of water and then within ten minutes, I could see several hundred

:10:07. > :10:14.tonnes of rocks coming right down through the farmyard. The mud is up

:10:15. > :10:18.to the back door. With the clean-up under way at the sun shining, the

:10:19. > :10:21.suddenness of Saturday's landslips seems a distant memory. People here

:10:22. > :10:35.The boxing team excelled with nine medals in all.

:10:36. > :10:38.BBC Newsline has followed the competitors every step of the

:10:39. > :10:46.way and Nigel Ringland was there for the final leg of the journey today.

:10:47. > :10:52.Captaining the Northern Ireland team home, Paddy Barnes and Michael

:10:53. > :10:54.Collin at the controls, as they returned from Glasgow after most

:10:55. > :11:23.successful games since 1986. Daniela Hill competed in her first

:11:24. > :11:28.games. She is looking forward to four years time. I am very excited.

:11:29. > :11:33.I cannot wait. There's lots of training to going to be the best and

:11:34. > :11:38.to get the final stages and hopefully medal finishes. For these

:11:39. > :11:42.bowlers, it was their fifth and final games. Both returned with

:11:43. > :11:48.medals, proud to have represented Northern Ireland for so long. We

:11:49. > :11:53.watched the finals day and it was a fantastic atmosphere. It is good for

:11:54. > :11:59.sport in Northern Ireland. When you walk into that stadium for a opening

:12:00. > :12:02.ceremony, you are effort told. An amazing experience. It was the

:12:03. > :12:09.boxers who stole the headlines with nine medals. Some great athletes

:12:10. > :12:12.here. World class. They just need a little bit of funding and they can

:12:13. > :12:17.all step up to the plate. That is what comes down to. Believe you me,

:12:18. > :12:25.every athlete on the team did their best. I didn't see anybody lying

:12:26. > :12:28.about. Everybody did their best. From Northern Ireland, there will be

:12:29. > :12:33.many memorable moments from northern dash from Glasgow to look back on.

:12:34. > :12:40.Here's Barra Best with a look at what the weather has in store.

:12:41. > :12:46.Thankfully we lost the weekend's rain. Most of us enjoyed a fine day.

:12:47. > :12:50.The distilled fine across many areas at the moment but through the night,

:12:51. > :12:55.there will be the odd spot of rain coming in from the south. But it

:12:56. > :12:58.will be a mild sniper temperatures between 12 and 14 degrees. Tomorrow,

:12:59. > :13:02.we do have a fair amount of dry weather on the cards. Bright as well

:13:03. > :13:06.at times but also a scattering of showers. Some of those showers will

:13:07. > :13:10.be heavy. The Met office has issued a weather warning. There is the

:13:11. > :13:19.potential force some thundery downpours. We could see flooding as

:13:20. > :13:22.a result. Something to bear in mind. To begin with, a fair amount of dry

:13:23. > :13:25.weather. Some wet weather around the post. As we make our way into the

:13:26. > :13:28.afternoon, we begin to see those scattered showers beginning to pep

:13:29. > :13:31.up and some of those will be heavy, stretching down the east coast of

:13:32. > :13:38.Ireland and further inland during the day. Much of Britain will get

:13:39. > :13:42.off to a good, bright start. In the afternoon, the best of the sunshine

:13:43. > :13:47.across eastern areas. Further west, cloudy with some scattered showers.

:13:48. > :13:51.Temperatures in the south-east up to 24 degrees. Cooler and fresher

:13:52. > :13:55.further north. For Northern Ireland, there will be a few showers

:13:56. > :13:59.aren't there. Some of them will be heavy. They will be well spaced

:14:00. > :14:04.out. Not everyone will get one but if you do, you probably will know

:14:05. > :14:10.about it. Temperatures of 19 or 20 degrees with fairly light wind. It

:14:11. > :14:14.is an improving picture as we make through the day on Wednesday.

:14:15. > :14:15.Temperatures up to 20 degrees. More unsettled as we head towards the end

:14:16. > :14:17.of the week. You can keep up to date with
