NSW floods affect area the size of Spain
‘Bomb’ man faces court
The NSWs summer flood crisis was the most significant for a generation and affected an area the size of Spain, State Emergency Service (SES) Commissioner Murray Kear says. “This has been the most significant flood event that inland NSW has witnessed in a generation,� Kear said in a statement on Friday. About 70 per cent of NSW – an area the size of Spain – has been affected by flooding since January. Source: AAP

He had pleaded guilty earlier this month to aggravated break and enter and committing a serious indictable offence. Peters was arrested in Louisville, Kentucky in the US, almost two weeks after the incident in the Pulver family home at Mosman on August 3. Source: AAP
Australia can expect to pay about $130 million each for its first two Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) aircraft and an average of about $85 million if it opts to buy 100. These increased cost figures come in the US Defence Department’s selected acquisition report for 2011 (SAR11) presented to Congress on Thursday. The report is an update on major US defence programs including the Lockheed Martin F-35 JSF. Despite the apparent price hikes,
the Australian Defence Force is confident final prices will be lower because the most recent fixed-price incentive contract was significantly below the SAR10 cost estimate. Australia’s first two aircraft will be produced in a later contract lot. For Australia, SAR11 indicates Australia’s first two aircraft, scheduled for delivery in the US from 2014, will cost about $130 million, based on 2012 prices and a $US1.03 exchange rate. Source: AAP
New breast cancer gene discovered during study Researchers may have found the key to unlocking the genetic code behind a host of serious diseases, following the discovery of a new breast cancer gene mutation. A large international study led by University of Melbourne researchers has identified a mutation linked to breast cancer attached to the newly identified gene, called XRCC2. Lead researcher Melissa Southey says the discovery, using high-speed technology, will hopefully mean more gene mutations responsible for causing breast cancer could be rapidly identified in the next few years.
