9:42 AM AEDT | I AM a resident of Vincentia and I love to walk on the beautiful beaches with my two dogs in the mornings.
9:41 AM AEDT | JOHN Horobin may well know something about algae. However, his dismissive views on the response of sea level to global warming suggests he has narrow scientific understanding (‘Marine scientist warms to global warming effects’, SCR March 10).
9:40 AM AEDT | FRIDAY saw a bit of a political mystery unfold in the State seat of Kiama, when NSW Premier Kristina Keneally and her entourage descended on Kiama to take part in a number of photo opportunities with beleaguered sitting member Matt Brown.
12 Mar 10 | OPENING the South Coast Register on March 10, the heading read ‘...so what’s making these kids so ill?’ Maybe a photo shoot knee-deep in the stuff.
12 Mar 10 | THERE is much one could say about the article, ‘Marine
scientist warms to global warming effects’ (SCR, March 10) suffice to say, that it is largely just silly.

perspective.

12 Mar 10 | NOT even halfway through its term, Shoalhaven City Council appears to be unravelling. Disunity, lack of focus and once again accusations of ignoring the community have bubbled to the surface – mainly associated with the row over the huge waste tender.
10 Mar 10 | GOOD to see NSW Minister for Water Phil Costa opening the Currarong sewerage plant.
10 Mar 10 | I AM writing in relation to the Weed Refugee article published in the SCR on March 3.
10 Mar 10 | IT’S a lay-down misere — if hospital networks and health systems are taken over by the Federal Government the running of local hospitals should be the responsibility of councils.
10 Mar 10 | PAM Arnold’s comments (SCR March 8) concerning pay rates for men and women do not provide an accurate picture.
10 Mar 10 | TONY Abbott’s foray into the issue of parental leave was no doubt timed for International Women’s Day and intended to rectify his poor standing among female voters.
08 Mar 10 | K. WOLDRING questions the Westminster system of government because it assumes a two-party lower house.
08 Mar 10 | WHAT a miserable whinger B. Cambourne of Woollamia is with his petty, negative and insular comments regarding the Jervis Bay Triathlon.

08 Mar 10 | I WAS interested to read that Cr Watson is calling for a community process regarding waste collection services (SCR, March 3). I don’t remember council consulting with the public about this when Cr Watson was mayor.
08 Mar 10 | EVER since it came to light that rotting seaweed had been implicated in at least one death and a number of cases of serious illnesses, we have been trying to get at least one government agency to test the air at Callala.
