2006 in England
The Prince of Wales makes a televised address in tribute. Richard Lochhead holds the seat for the Scottish National Party. Steve McClaren , manager of Middlesbrough F. Charles Clarke is dismissed as Home Secretary.
Yet writers themselves hate to be categorised: there is something about being a writer that is all about putting your roots in the air. Stories, on the other hand, grow downwards, seeking the cultural nutrients in the soil. When David Edgar, chairing a session on theatre and censorship, asked the Northern Irish playwright Gary Mitchell whether he spoke for the Protestant community in North Belfast, Mitchell replied pugnaciously that he spoke only for himself. Mitchell knows all too well what it means to be accused of representing a community. He calmly described the intimidation that he and his family have received at the hands of loyalist paramilitaries who object to his portrayals of their culture. Her play Bells, staged last year at the Birmingham Rep, explores the world of the mujra: so-called dancing clubs prevalent throughout South Asia and now common in Britain.
This was dense in places, and the flashing amber light signals had been switched on for most of the night. So far there are no reports of anyone seriously injured in the accident. This accident, the fourth involving a multiple pile-up of vehicles in the last month, comes just as the first National Conference on Motorway Use is getting under way. At the opening meeting in London last night, Sir John Stone, the Metropolitan Area Traffic Adviser, criticised the standard of motorway driving in this country. He said that there was evidence that many of the basic disciplines of motorway use had yet to be learned by British drivers. Lane discipline was much worse in this country than in America; and the habits of drivers when overtaking were particularly bad. One saw far too much dangerous pulling-out without an adequate signal having been given, and there was a similarly dangerous tendency for drivers to cut in after overtaking. Perhaps the commonest form of misuse however, was the reluctance of drivers of private cars to move into the inside lane whenever it was possible to do so. Sir John said that far too many were determined to stay in the middle or even the outside lanes, regardless of traffic conditions, with the result that drivers wishing to overtake became impatient and tried to follow too closely behind the vehicle in front, thus making accidents more likely. The conference is continuing. Now, the Common Market negotiations. Geoffrey Rippon, the chief negotiator, flew to Brussels last night. Britain has put forward the suggestion that a reasonable contribution would be thirteen to fifteen per cent, built up in a series of equal yearly steps over a period of five years.
His law-enforcement background was an asset during the campaign. Lawhorne wants to expand the jail into the former headquarters of the police department and increase security for the facility. It will also allow city workers to test the feasibility of using wireless devices for municipal operations. There, hostage negotiators tried to reason with Barber using a sound system and a robot. Eventually, Barber emerged from the house with a gun, and two police officers shot him. This prompted one member of the commission to vote against accepting the report. A second jury found Jones guilty of second-degree murder, recommending 13 years imprisonment. The second murder happened on May 28, when bicyclist Mark Creasy, 48, was strangled by a man who later ran naked across the George Washington Memorial Parkway and bit a police officer. In November, Andre Dwayne Suggs pleaded guilty to second-degree murder. The murder, which happened on federal property, is not counted in city homicide statistics. On Sept. He is currently awaiting trial. The fourth murder happened on Dec. No arrest has yet been made in the case. David Murphy was the brother of Greg Murphy, who was indicted in 2000 for the murder of an 8-year-old boy in Del Ray.

2006: The News Year That Was
We take a look back at ten of the biggest news stories from the year. Their hallucinations were confirmed to be, in fact, reality when TV cameras captured a juvenile female Northern bottlenose whale who was five metres long and weighed about seven tonnes. Her normal habitat would have been near the coasts of the far north of Scotland and Northern Ireland, and in the seas around the Arctic Ocean but she appeared to have lost her way. Rescue teams attempted to get the whale affectionately named Diana back into the Atlantic but she later died from convulsions as she was being rescued at around 19:00 GMT on 21 January. Journey to the Hawaiian islands and observe humpback whales and their calves in our exclusive video taken as part of our Frozen Planet series. There were seven bomb blasts that occurred over a period of 11 minutes on the Suburban Railway in Mumbai. The bombs were set off in pressure cookers and killed 209 people and injured over 700. The first bombs went off at 18. Nine years later, 12 people were convicted in this case.
Faisal Sheikh, Asif Khan, Kamal Ansari, Ehtesham Sidduqui and Naveed Khan who planted the bombs in various trains were all sentenced to death while the other seven accused of the crime—Mohammed Sajid Ansari, who prepared the electrical circuits for the bombs, Mohammed Ali, who allowed people to use his house to make the bombs, Dr Tanveer Ansari, one of the conspirators, and Majid Shafi, Muzzammil Shaikh, Sohail Shaikh and Zamir Shaikh who gave logistical support — were given life imprisonment. What does it do to you to be one of the bereaved in such a traumatic event?

A number of lorry drivers and motorists were unable to pull up in time and ran into the overturned vehicle, causing a major pile-up. Some of the steel bars from the load were flung by the impact across the central reserve into the southbound carriageway, which was restricted to single-lane working because of repairs and resurfacing, causing several minor accidents. With both carriageways blocked, police closed the motorway for a time, and diversion signs were posted at the nearest slip roads.
Breakdown vehicles and ambulances had considerable difficulty in reaching the scene of the accident because of fog. This was dense in places, and the flashing amber light signals had been switched on for most of the night. So far there are no reports of anyone seriously injured in the accident.

The arrests were made in London, Birmingham, and High Wycombe in an overnight operation. Of the passengers and crew, 49 of 50 are confirmed dead in the hours following the crash. President George W.
