From the Publisher's Desk: Ice Cream Social has fun for all

Ice cream and airplanes and dancers, oh my! OWL and singers and prizes, oh my! Have I piqued your interest? The day is fast approaching to enjoy these things and so much more! From 1 to 5 p.m. Sunday at Wilber Park in Oneonta, the second annual Ice Cream Social will take place. I invite you all to join us for a day of fun and activities, and of course, all the free ice cream you can eat.....more>>

From the Publisher's Desk: Weekly Star is coming to your homes for 2 weeks
Surprise! Bet you weren't expecting me this week, but I wanted to tell you about a bonus for home subscribers to The Daily Star for the next two Fridays.
From the Publisher's Desk: There are many new ways to connect with us
Some of you may trek out to your Daily Star tube early in the morning and start your day reading your local newspaper cover-to-cover over a cup of coffee. Some of you may first turn to the sports section, the classified section or start the crossword puzzle. And still others head to their computer and read the news of the day online.
From the Publisher's Desk: In times of stress, seek out ‘me’ time
Everywhere I turn these days, I can’t seem to escape the tirade of news on the current economic climate, our state budget woes ... and the list goes on.
From the Publisher's Desk: The Star isn't going anywhere
Nationally, across all industries, these are hard economic times and, as they should, the news media have covered it every step of the way. Over the past several months, many local businesses have had to make tough choices in their operations to stabilize or minimize the impact of this recession. That includes this newspaper.
From the Publisher's Desk: New Star features are available for readers
As in any organization, you constantly look at what you do, then take a good, hard look and ask why you do it. "Because we have always done it that way" is not a reason to continue along a path that may be a dead end. The effort put forth should produce some value in the end product.
From the Publisher's Desk: Jobs are available even now
Last Thursday, like many others, I attended the 2009 CDO Workforce Job Fair and Career Expo at the Holiday Inn in Oneonta.
From the Publisher's Desk: Opinions can be shared in many ways
Ever turned to Page 4 of our newspaper, read the editorial and strongly agreed or disagreed with the opinion? I can imagine there were times when you nodded in agreement or, conversely, thought, "What the heck were they thinking?"
From the Publisher's Desk: Comment away on our site
Ever get frustrated feeling there is no one place to have a healthy discussion about a pressing community issue _ especially because you already wrote a letter to the editor and the newspaper's policy says you have to wait 30 days between published letters?
From the Publisher's Desk: Bad luck before the new year
On New Year's Eve, I had quite the experience, and I am glad it ended my 2008 rather than kicked off my 2009. I failed to see the humor in it at the time, but as I look back, I can chuckle a little as I retell the story that many rolled in laughter about.
