Greenwich Comedian Mixes Irish Roots, Family Antics For Palace Show GREENWICH, Conn. -- The Greenwich country clubs, the women in pearls, the use of "summer" as a verb: That has been the fodder for much of Jane Condon's comedy -- at least when she's performing in the tri-state area -- and it's what you can expect in her "Colleens of Comedy" show at The Palace in Stamford on March 13. You can also expect, since we're close to St. Patrick's Day, a host of Irish jokes, many of which stem from her childhood growing up as the youngest of four girls in a blue-collar town outside Boston with grandparents straight from the Emerald Isle. "Only the Irish say we …

Katonah Mom Runs To Raise Money For Juvenile Diabetes Research KATONAH, N.Y. -- We all know it's been a tough winter but for Karen Panzirer, who's training for the United Airlines NYC Half Marathon on Sunday, March 15, the weather these last few months has made training a challenge. "I like to fit my long runs in early on a Saturday or Sunday, depending on what we have going on for the day, so my training doesn't interfere with our children's schedules," explained the Katonah mom of three. "With this said, early morning means colder temperatures. I have been running with the same running partner for 12 years and she is right there with me in all ki…

Bridgeport Singer Finds His Voice In Cabaret-Style Shows BRIDGEPORT, Conn. -- Bridgeport native Michael Dunham is a lot of things: Radio host (he does the late night shift on Mondays on WPKN-FM 89.5), artist (his work has been been displayed in various murals and exhibits throughout the area), and singer (Two Boots, the Bijou, The Palace in Stamford).

Did You Set Your Clocks Ahead, Fairfield? FAIRFIELD COUNTY, Conn. -- Wake up sleepyheads across Fairfield County. Sunday officially marks the start of daylight saving time, so make sure you've set your clock ahead an hour. Aside from Hawaii, Arizona and all island U.S. territories, most of the country "springs forward" as an energy-saving measure that dates to 1966, when the Uniform Time Act was implemented.
