Man charged over balcony death in Sydney
October 30, 2008, 6:05 am

A 26-year-old man will appear in court on Thursday charged with murder, sexual assault and other offences after a woman fell to her death from an apartment balcony in Sydney.
The man was arrested after a police manhunt.
Chinese student (Elva) Liao Wei, 18, was one of four Asian students who endured horrendous sexual assaults for up to an hour at the hands of a knife-wielding predator before she and her boyfriend fell from the balcony in inner city Waterloo about 1.40pm (AEDT) on Sunday.
Her boyfriend, Korean Tae Wook "Chris" Han, 19, remains in hospital with serious spinal injuries from which police say he may never recover following the fall from the third floor of the apartment complex in Hunter Street.
About 8.20pm on Wednesday, after an extensive manhunt, police investigators arrested a 26-year-old man in Castlereagh Lane, Redfern and he was charged with murder and 21 other offences, police said.
They included recklessly causing grievous bodily harm, aggravated sexual assault, inflicting bodily harm with intent to have sexual intercourse, assault with act of indecency, aggravated break and enter, robbery armed with offensive weapon, detain persons with intent to sexual gratification and inciting others to commit acts of indecency.
The man was refused bail and will appear at Central Local Court on Thursday.
His arrest came after detectives on Wednesday released CCTV footage of a man wanted over the home invasion and assaults, as a large squad of police worked on the murder investigation.

Today hot issue is this News. I think this situation didn't present to Korean, but it will happen soon. So I just afraid somebody blame them with no reason. And I saw their picture on this news site, but it disappeared. I think someone (might be their family) complained to them. 

 

[News] Good and bad takeaway foods !!

Good and bad takeaway foods

Reporter: Georgia Main
Broadcast Date: October 27, 2008

The average family spends 15 per cent of its food budget on takeaway, so which dishes are the healthier choice?
Australians buy takeaway up to three times a week and it shows because we spend nearly $14 million a year avoiding our kitchens.
Dietician from the Australian Healthy Food Guide, Caitlin Reid, said it is based on demand.
"There has been a lot of demand for healthier choices so they definitely have come onboard with that but it's still up to the customer to make the healthy choice," she said.
With options like Chinese, Indian, Thai and Italian, Caitlin gave her opinion on the best options.
"You want to look at something that's got a lot of colour," she said.
Thai green curry is a no-no because it is full of coconut cream.
Pad Thai is also on the no list.
"If you look at the pad Thai you can see it's all the one colour to start off with which is not a good thing, but you've got fried noodles in there and oil," she said.
"Naturally the kilojoules are going to increase a lot more."
Thai chicken with chilli and basil has 12 grams of fat, the pad Thai has more than double that, coming in at 30 grams, which is more than a Big Mac.
Indian food is renowned for heavy sauces but there are some good choices, according to Caitlin.
"The chicken tikka is definitely a better choice than the chicken korma, even down to the bread, the roti which is made with wholemeal flour is definitely a better choice than the naan bread," Caitlin said.
Chicken tikka has 9g of fat while chicken korma has a whopping 51g.
The Chinese beef and black bean is a good option, but we need to look at the serving size.
Caitlin suggests serving the meal on a plate, rather that eating it out of the container.
"If you ate it out of the container you wouldn't stop to think how much you are eating," she said.
But steer away from sweet and sour pork.
The beef and black bean had 9g of fat, while sweet and sour pork and fried rice had 60g.
It is no surprise that it is better to choose a tomato-based pasta rather than a creamy carbonara.
"The saturated fat and total fat of that dish is going to be quite high so you're looking at twice the kilojoules in a creamy-based pasta compared to a tomato based pasta," Caitlin said.
Pasta napolitana came in at 12g, the carbonara at 32g of fat.
"It's definitely possible to eat healthy takeaway, you just need to have a think about what you are choosing when ordering it."

I love to eat Thai food, so this news made me sad cuz I don't feel I eat Thai food any more. I really care about my body shape. Now I don't have a nice body, but I really want to be. Sometimes I don't eat for the shape. I didn't know Thai food have a much oil. Oh, what can I eat...
