Our View: Board members should have full access to records
Opinion
There is a letter to the editor in this week’s Star-Observer from School Board member Sandy Gehrke, upset about the district’s request that she pay $428.54 for copies of paperwork. Gehrke might be viewed by some as a maverick on the board, but she was the choice of the voters.

Book Report: Another word on former presidents; waxing poetic on the death of a fly
Three American presidents lead off this week’s roster of books: Franklin Roosevelt, Dwight Eisenhower and Richard Nixon. You could fill libraries with what has already been written by these guys, but leave it to the scholars — they can always find a niche that’s unfilled.

Letter: Disagrees with St. Croix County DA
The DA of St. Croix County is living on cloud nine. His law credentials have generated so much power that it has gone to his head. It is time for him to go. Mr. Johnson has decided to join the anti-second amendment crowd, not for gun control but for a total gun ban. Mr. Johnson, you keep your advice, I’ll keep my guns.

Letter: Dislikes HHS music rules
The St. Croix Valley Music Educators Association (SCVMTA) is a professional organization for teachers of private lessons for piano, voice, string and woodwinds. I am writing to voice the opinion of its members in regard to the article about Hudson High School’s choral department and its inclusion of sacred music for education and performance.

Letter: Supports DA gun proposals
Not surprisingly, several writers have submitted letters opposed to St. Croix County District Attorney Eric Johnson’s proposal to enact reasonable and meaningful gun restrictions (2/25/2013). It is also not surprising that some writers are misinformed when it comes to their understanding of the Constitution.

Letter: Thoughts on wolf hunting
The grey wolf isn’t the only dangerous beast in the forest. There’s another beast that is even more dangerous. This other beast isn’t as smart as the grey wolf, but what it lacks in intelligence it makes up for with unusual savagery.

Book Report: A new Scandinavian thriller takes the stage
I’m way behind in my coverage of the Scandinavian thriller surge in world publishing, not having even read a Stieg Larsson thriller, so I’ll try to make it up by reviewing a finely wrought thriller by first-time Swedish author Alexander Soderberg. It’s “The Andalucian Friend,” (Crown, $26), translated by Neil Smith.

Notes From the Dockside: Multiple species days
It was the first day that spring that my buddy, Doug and I were fishing the Mississippi River. We had several sauger already in the livewell and had caught a number of smaller fish we threw back. Although it was cold out, as you would expect in early spring, we had steadily been getting strikes and it was a good day of fishing.
