I can't find the part that says all the filming took place near Chatswood.

An assumption on my part, because it said that "the bus driver attended Chatswood Police Station".  It is of course possible that he could have lived in the Chatswood area and worked elsewhere....

I had to catch two buses today.  As far as I could see, there were no suspicious looking holes in the floor....

Because women are honoured in the West?

Man wanted for petrol attack arrested

POLICE have arrested a man allegedly involved in stabbing and setting alight a woman at a Melbourne petrol station.

The man had been holed up at the Church of Christ in Bayswater, in Melbourne's outer east, surrounded by police.

The church is about 200 metres from the Woolworths service station on Mountain Highway where the woman was allegedly stabbed and set alight about 8.30am (AEST) today.

An Ambulance Victoria spokeswoman said the woman has been flown to The Alfred hospital in a critical condition with burns to almost 100 per cent of her body...

One man "Beau" said he spotted the woman on fire while he was driving to work.

He tried to help her by grabbing a fire extinguisher while a man armed with a knife warned a group of about 10 people to keep away.

"He was waving a knife around at us - very precarious situation for everyone," he told Fairfax Radio.

"(He was) telling her to burn, not a pleasant sight."

Taylor 'thought Newton would kill her'

Rachael Taylor has reportedly claimed in legal documents that she feared Matthew Newton would kill her during his alleged attack.

The Underbelly actor, who is currently undergoing psychiatric evaluation in a Sydney clinic, is believed to have assaulted Taylor a few days after proposing to her in Rome.

According to The Daily Telegraph, Taylor has claimed in her application for an apprehended domestic violence order against Newton that she received treatment for "scarring to her top lip, arm and knee", "neck injuries" and "bruising" after the incident.

The documents also state that her injuries were consistent with having her head "bashed against the floor and walls".

She also reportedly said that Newton has "threatened to end her life" on more than one occasion since January this year.

How Matthew Newton got away with hitting Brooke Satchwell

MATTHEW Newton got off scot free for hitting former girlfriend Brooke Satchwell four years ago because the judge found that he was a "gentleman" who was unlikely to hit a woman again.

A who's who of entertainment provided glowing references, telling District Court Judge Joseph Moore that Newton, who continued to punch Satchwell while she begged him to stop, had the "utmost respect for women".

Judge Moore quashed Newton's conviction for assaulting Satchwell, even though he had pleaded guilty, and dismissed the charge

Israeli drive to prevent Jewish girls dating Arabs

Hostility to intimate relationships developing across Israel’s ethnic divide is shared by many Israeli Jews, who regard such behaviour as a threat to the state’s Jewishness. One of the few polls on the subject, in 2007, found that more than half of Israeli Jews believed intermarriage should be equated with “national treason”.

Bat Yam rally: Death to Jewish women who date Arabs

Some 200 people held a demonstration in central Bat Yam Monday evening against relationships between local Jewish women and Arab men.

One of the protestors called out, "Any Jewish woman who goes with an Arab should be killed..."


'We will not allow it.' Bat Yam rally

During the rally, held under the banner, "We Want a Jewish Bat-Yam", demonstrators also insulted the prophet Muhammad and made racist remarks against Arabs and their saints. 

Police forces maintained order, but did not act when the demonstrators made racist remarks.

"We are not racist, we are just Jews. The Arabs are coming and taking our daughters. We will not allow it," one of the speakers said.

Moshe Ben-Zikri of Eilat said the "struggle" began three years ago in Givat Ze'ev. "There were 330 Arab families there, and the Jewish women would walk around with them freely. We vowed this would not happen again.

"Just like we triumphed there, we will triumph in Bat Yam as well. We are not afraid of the police, the media or the Arabs – we only fear God," he said.
