	Bow Street and Russell Street Area: Catherine Street \| British History Online
		When this street was first laid out by the fourth Earl of Bedford in the 1630's it was closed at its southern end a few yards north of the present junction with Exeter Street and Aldwych by the wall of Exeter House garden and the back premises of the White Hart Inn in the Strand.
		In 1657 ground south of the street was bought from the fifth Earl by the tenant of the White Hart, (ref.
		118) Clifton's previous tavern in Russell Street, the Goat, does not seem to have been a very staid place, and although he subsequently figures in chapelry matters in respectable guise the Fleece itself was to become notorious for the murders committed there.

		In the Oklahoma bombing case it seems the government is attempting to perform a similar feat of light and magic.

		Russell Crowe is the kind of guy - I went up to his farm, he's got a big ranch up there, his mother and father are up there.
		Russell Crowe is dead-center perfect as Captain Jack Aubrey, and O’Brian himself would surely have been pleased to know that the moral gravity of his novels has made it to the screen intact.
		Russell Crowe, who plays Capt. Jack Aubrey with the breezy authority of a born captain, is usually an academy favorite, and Paul Bettany gave a wonderfully detailed supporting performance as Aubrey's friend and shipmate Stephen Maturin.

		Similar claims occurred in the wake of the bombing of the Russell Street police headquarters by local criminals in Melbourne in March 1986.

		Two of the three bombs that exploded in the London Underground on Thursday were fitted with timer devices left in packages on trains, police said yesterday, as they embarked on a massive manhunt for the terrorists who claimed at least 50 lives and left more than 700 people injured.

		A fourth bomb that blew up a bus almost an hour later was probably left in a bag and not triggered by a suicide bomber, they added; experts speculate it had initially been destined for a train.

		Authorities were at work at all the bomb sites except the one beneath Russell Square station, where at least 21 people died, which must be made safe before police work can begin in earnest.
		The Tavistock Place site, where a bomb killed 13 people aboard a bus, was also challenging, because the explosion took place in the open air, spreading debris over a wide area, he said.
		The bombs used in the attacks held less than 10 pounds of explosives each -- light enough to easily tote in a bag or knapsack, police said.

		Anita Beaty, from the Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless, in her visit to Sydney in August 1998, stated We noticed that a year out, folks were being arrested routinely, just by being on the street, that oppression built up and reached fever pitch a year away from the Games¹.
		Whereas in Atlanta new laws were required to carry out this task of cleaning up the streets for the Olympics, police in NSW already have these powers, through the Police and Public Safety Act, the Drug Misuse and Trafficking Act, and other laws, which give police wide discretionary powers.
		Redfern Legal Centre¹s statement regarding the law makes the point that: ³It requires very little thought to see that the people most likely to be caught are either users cutting or taxing small quantities and or selling to support their own habit, or recreational users who may supply to friends.

		The first season began with a car bomb exploding outside a police ball, killing one police officer and horribly burning another.
		(in the show it was a bombing at the police Christmas party) - and it was at least tacitly based on the actual Russell Street bombing in question; there were many parallels.
		A second series was made in 1993, but at least to start with it lacked the resonant hook of the first series: No bombings here, instead aggravated burglaries and related drug importation, and continual run-ins with internal investigations.
