Winchell To Perform Friday
Terry Winchell will perform at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation on the Sag Harbor/Bridgehampton Turnpike Friday as part of the “Songwriter’s Share” series. Nancy Remkus will MC each event. The event is a fundraiser for Maureen’s Haven. Winchell, a versatile and gifted singer/songwriter, brings the richness of her life experience to the recording studio, airwaves and stage. H e r e m p a t h y, r e f l e c t i o n , conviction, and soulfulness bring the fullness of life into her music and lyrics. Raised on Long Island’s South Fork and widely traveled since her teens, Winchell grew up in a family of iconoclastic musicians and artists. Her two successful albums: Under the Veil of Wilderness, which was recorded in Nashville with many of the top session musicians, and Vice Versa, reflect her dynamism as a writer, composer and musician. Accompanying Winchell at the "Songwriter’s Share” concert series will be guitarist Mark McCarron and cellist Suzanne Mueller. They have been performing live and in the studio with Winchell for many years, and they are also featured on her new album Blue Flower scheduled for a spring release. The show is slated to begin at 7 PM. For more information call 631725-3938 or 631-537-0132. For more information, go to Winchell’s website, www. terrywinchell.com. M.X.L.

enormous bag of technical tricks which become apparent to the viewer the longer he stands before the work. So, in Hunt, there is a serious side to painting. By varying the moods and techniques of his work, in fresh and exciting ways, Hunt Slonem creates beautiful work that continually gives joy and surprise." For more information visit www. veredart.com.

PISCES (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20) Pisces rules the feet and this week you’re going to need them. As the students of Zen say, “Walk on.” Things are going well, believe it or not, but you must believe it to take advantage of it. Time is short.
likes to think about getting rid of their garbage, but it’s crucial. Help a weak person get rid of theirs.
ARIES (Mar. 20 - Apr. 20) Aries rules the head of things and as head of the world known as “You” - you’re being challenged this week as to the validity of the new project and/ or aspect of your personality that you’ve been trying to get going. TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 21) Taurus rules the throat and you would do well to speak up, in your best “cultivated” voice, and let them know that no matter who owns what, there’s no reason to push you too far. They’ll never forget if they do. GEMINI (May 21 - June 22) Gemini rules the hands, but this is no time to sit twiddling your thumbs. Though you may feel older than you are and world-weary, rise to the occasion. There is tremendous opportunity -anything can happen. CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Cancer rules the breast and stomach so beat your chest and call your pals from far and wide for a party. Even if they’ve just had a big celebration, surprise everybody and throw one to
show you care.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21) Sagittarius rules the thighs because they take you places. You’ve been putting off the call of nature for weeks now. Listen to what your body is saying, “Use me.” Get back in touch with your organismic responses.
LEO (July 23 - Aug. 23) Leo rules the heart and lower back and this week you are going to have to have the heart to bow a bit to those in a superior position to you. Acknowledge them and they’ll let you put your abundant energies to work.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 21 - Jan. 20) Capricorn rules the knees because they hold us upright - the land-based aristocrats of the planet Earth. But bend a knee this week as you ask for approval or a favor. A humble aristocrat is a potent combination.
VIRGO (Aug. 23 - Sept. 23) Virgo rules the digestive system. The mental equivalent of that is thinking but you’ve done more than your share of that last week. What is called for now is action to bring your ideas into material reality.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 - Feb. 19) Aquarius rules the ankles and wrists – “crazy” joints of our bodies. Without them we’d all look pretty stiff. Use your ability to be crazy: inspired and inspiring. It’ll prevent doubts from making you go stiff.
LIBRA (Sept. 23 - Oct. 23) Libra, as the sign in the middle of the Zodiac, rules the waistline and the diaphragm and kidneys, which are there. As you’ve learned, if you drink too fast you’ll get the hiccups or worse. Tell a certain friend. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 - Nov. 22) Scorpio rules the highest and the lowest. In the body this translates as our eliminative systems. Nobody

today’s birthday by Miles X. Logan
Queen Isabella I of Castile, 1451 There would be no America if it weren’t for Isabella. Though born into a royal family, young Isabella did not have an easy childhood in Castile. When her brother ascended to the throne he kept his younger siblings in poverty despite the last wishes of her father. She was well educated, however, and eventually went to live with her brother in the king’s castle in Segovia. She eventually ascended the family hierarchy to become heir to the crown. She married Ferdinand of Aragon, marking the first move towards the unification of what is now Spain, though neither lived to see it occur. As queen, Isabella moved aggressively to mend the wounds left by her brother, who alienated many noblemen and spent an enormous amount of money – which he borrowed. Isabella’s strength was her strong alliance with the Catholic Church, which held extraordinary power in the region. Isabella agreed to finance Christopher Columbus’s foray west, where he believed the West Indies were located some 2000 miles away. Instead, he landed on what is now San Salvador. In the following years Spain repeatedly financed trips to the New World, including two more by Columbus. In fact, Spain and Portugal entered into a treaty where-in the two countries divided the new lands, with each claiming half. Under Isabella the Roman Catholic Inquisition raged. Jews were ordered to leave the country, but to leave all their wealth behind. Isabella named a Catholic Monarch by the sanctioned and abetted the Inquisition. Isabella and Ferdinand wanted to unify Spain physically and also convert all residents to Catholicism. Isabella and Ferdinand had five children. Her son John died in 1497, and Isabella, torn with grief, never fully recovered. She gave up the crown in 1504 and died within months, still dressed in black, the traditional mourning garb.

Indy Eyes Stress Awareness Month Bu Kitty Merrill You furrow your brow. You clench your jaw. You grind your teeth. You squint your eyes or purse your lips. You don’t sleep, eat junk food, and forget to hydrate. And all the emotions prompted by stress – anger, anxiety, depression -- hit you right in the kisser. A p r i l i s S t r e s s Aw a r e n e s s Month, so what better time for The Independent to launch a month-long series examining the effects of stress and strategies you can use to relieve it? This week we’ll discuss one of the most visible ways it attacks . . .
Stress Wrecks Your Face Got stress? If so, and if you’ve hit “a certain age,” you’ve probably
got wrinkles. If not, you could be one of millions of people who suffer
stress-induced (or exacerbated) skin problems like acne, hives, eczema, or psoriasis. The effects of chronic stress on the skin have become so widespread; they’ve given rise to a new discipline, psychodermatology, which addresses the link between emotions and skin. In fact, studies show that about 30 percent of all dermatology patients have some underlying psychological problem, according to WebMD. With a multitude of nerve endings connected to the skin, when that “fight or flight” feeling kicks in, the stress hormones released to deal with the threat can do a number on your skin. (Check the archives on our website, www.indyeastend.com, for earlier sections of this series describing stress hormones.) Cortisol, the main stress hormone increases the body’s oil production, which can lead to acne flare-ups. At the same time, it reduces the skin’s ability to repair itself. Too much cortisol also allows free radicals to build up and damage dermal cells.

In some women, it can even prompt “mini-menopause,” where a dip in estrogen means less collagen production and less moisture, leaving skin dry and dull.
Stress & Grey Hair
When the stress response kicks in, the body is programed to get blood flowing to muscles. The extra blood flow was a necessity during caveman times, when it helped Fred Flintstone run from predators (or get his footcar up to speed, for cartoon fans). In modern times, however, that decreased blood flow strips skin of its radiance and ultimately can result in sagging skin. Laura Anne Pelliccio is a licensed aesthetician and a spa manager at Gurney’s Seawater Spa in Montauk. She summarized, “The skin is the largest organ in the body, so stress and tension can develop a tremendous impact on your immune system. When the immune system is weakened, our skin, which is the largest organ in the body, is more susceptible to premature aging, constant change,
You’re worried and you can’t sleep. Then you worry about your sleeplessness, and wake up red-eyed and sallow-skinned. If chronic stress is starting to show up on your face, one of the best, and easiest, remedies is hitting the sheets. “Sleep is the body’s way of recharging the system and is the easiest yet most underrated activity to heal the body. Sleep also helps to eliminate puffy red eyes and dark circles. There isn’t anything that can compensate for lack of sleep," according to nutritionist and bestselling author J.J. Smith. “Lack of sleep causes extra wear and tear on the body, accelerating aging, and pushes the body out of its natural balance and rhythm.” All the facials and special creams and treatments can’t substitute for sleep. But, guess what? The supreme sense of relaxation that comes from the attention of an aesthetician can get you there. So, go ahead and get spa treatments, but try to wait till you get home to pass out. and a visible difference in appearance.” The belief that stress makes people look older lacked scientific evidence for years. Simple logic dictates, however, that wrinkles can form as your face assumes the same worried, angry or depressed expression over and over. Your skin looks dull and sags thanks to the unhealthy lifestyle that is often a default behavior when one’s under stress. It wasn’t until 2004 when a study revealed a link between aging and stress. Structures at the ends of chromosomes called telomeres shorten as people age. The study determined telomeres shortened prematurely in people suffering chronic stress. The results of that study, as well as additional research that ensued demonstrate a link between stress, aging, and the signs of aging. By the way -- You know that old caution – “Stop worrying, your hair will turn gray”? It might not be an old wives’ tale. One group of researchers believes high levels of cortisol cause hair follicles to be stripped of the cells that give hair color, leaving you with that dull grey. (Or in this reporter’s case, “sparkly” grey.) Scientists are still gathering clues in an effort to learn whether stress hastens the graying process.

Mission of Mermaids was filmed on the East End and it’s one of the most beautiful places -- full of healthy food, refreshing air, and a clean and abundant ocean,” continued Rockefeller. “As part of the event I’m honored to have mermaid ambassador Gina Bradley, who is also in the film, on hand to discuss the importance of taking care of not only ourselves, but also the sea and land around us.” Spa Soirée tickets are available at www.spa-soiree.com for $25.

Broadway Reporting From
(& Sometimes Off)
By Isa Goldberg
It’s Tyne Daly at bat, Harriet Harris throwing some nasty curves from the mound, and Edward Hibbert ushering in his gay jokes on the sidelines that makes It Shoulda Been You a giddy confection. Brian Hargrove’s book, set at the ritzy St George Hotel, where a “wedding deception” is underway, takes shots at contemporary values wealth, religion, same sex couples, race, and the whole mishpucha. Helmed by David Hyde Pierce with crackerjack timing and a great sense of teamwork, the show, which may seem obvious at the onset, hits the ball out of the park when it comes to making fun of us all. Hargrove and composer Barbara Anselmi’s comic character songs, including “Where Did I Go Wrong” sung by the mother of the groom (Harris), and “What They Never Tell You,” by Daly as mother of the bride, (a refreshing Sierra Boggess), are among the show’s highlights. But, the break out performance here is from Lisa Howard as the overweight maiden of honor, who sings with extraordinary grace, and dare we say, beauty. Josh Grisetti as an apparently jilted boyfriend and Montego Glover as bridesmaid and primary love interest bring the action full circle. The humor is kitsch, spritzed with one-liners, littered with pitfalls and pratfalls for a nonstop 100 minutes of light hearted entertainment. Moving Skylight Moving like a frenetic bird, Bill Nighy (Tom Sergeant) hops off the boards in Stephen Daldry’s revival of David Hare’s Skylight. Here, Carey Mulligan (Krya Hollis) as the much younger woman and former lover describes his worldview as “possession, owning it . . . your whole body
language expresses it.” Indeed, Nighy’s quirky mannerisms reveal the restlessness of this type A character -- a successful restaurateur, but a man whose enormous wealth contrasts a sad life. As his son, Matthew Beard looks like his father, but in his sweetness, he is the polar opposite. At the still point of his restless world, Mulligan demonstrates amazing strength as the love interest, albeit one who aims her sites on more bountiful rewards than Tom. Kyra, a schoolteacher, only wants to elevate the underserved and protect those whose human potential has been denied. Skylight is a meaningful departure for both Hare, whose left leaning politics are typically at the fore, and Daldry, whose work characteristically focuses on moral dilemma. In this play the essential matter is the relationship between a man and a woman. Politics, when it rears its head, is the background, the context for their personal raison d’être. As Tom puts it, glancing around Kyra’s cold and dingy flat, “put a bucket in the corner to shit in and you could take hostages and call it Beirut.” It sounds like David Hare making fun of himself, while his characters take flight into their inner recesses, of love’s labors lost but not to be forsaken. More Urban Life Similarly, life on the urban front, in New York this time, is convincingly evoked in The Public Theater’s production, Buzzer. Tracey Scott Wilson’s drama focuses on the triangulation that occurs between a biracial couple and their full time, live-in guest, a recovering addict. Wilson builds complex characters and filters their interpersonal conflicts
It Shoulda Been You through the socio-political environment that confronts them as they move into their newly renovated apartment in the dangerous neighborhood of Brownsville, Brooklyn. Anne Kaufman’s direction is firm, driving the action without sentimentality, and the cast is outstanding, especially Michael Stahl-David who plays a bad boy with fetching seduction. As
his best friend, Grantham Coleman captures the swagger and tension of the successful African American professional, Jackson, and Tess Ferrer as Suzy proves a powerful indisputable presence. The scenic design (Laura Jellnek) and lighting (Matt Frey) morphs an open theatrical space into an interior home with the outside peering in.
