# Walk a Little Faster

Walk a Little Faster is a musical revue with sketches by S. J. Perelman and Robert MacGunigle, music by Vernon Duke, and lyrics by E. Y. Harburg.

## Production

The Broadway production opened on December 7, 1932 at the St. James Theatre and then moved to the Selwyn Theatre, closing on March 18, 1933 for a total of 119 performances. Staged by Monty Woolley, the cast starred Beatrice Lillie, the comedy team of Bobby Clark and Paul McCullough, and Evelyn Hoey. The production design, by Boris Aronson, featured an innovative use of stage curtains; for example, one was shaped like an iris lens.

### April in Paris

The show was only a moderate success but contained the famous song April in Paris. It was introduced by Evelyn Hoey. According to an account by Stanley Green, the idea for this song title came about as Duke and friends were talking about Paris in a restaurant. When someone said 'Oh, to be in Paris now that April's here', Duke started composing on the spot. According to Harburg, the song came from Aronson's model of a set of Paris. "Aronson was in love with Paris...he designed one of the most beautiful, sensitive sets that ever was seen." The producer wanted a song to match the set.

## Sketches

Bea Lillie was a 1906 college girl, Penelope Goldfarb ("Scamp of the Campus"); the belle of the Yukon, "Frisco Fanny"; a radio songstress, and a French chanteuse ("Quel Bijou"). Clark and McCullough provided additional humor with their usual outfits and props, including a cigar for Clark. One of the sketches was a take-off on another show, Flying Colors, in which Clark pretended to be Clifton Webb and Lillie was Tamara Geva.

## Songs

* Where Have We Met Before?
* Speaking of Love
* A Penny for Your Thoughts
* April in Paris
* That's Life
* So Nonchalant
* Off again, On Again

# Brown-throated wren

The brown-throated wren (Troglodytes aedon brunneicollis) is a mostly Mexican bird in the wren family, often considered a subspecies of the house wren.

## Range and habitat

This subspecies is fairly common in some areas, in oak and pine-oak woods and clearings in the highlands of Mexico (1600 m to 3000 m elevation) from Oaxaca north to Coahuila and Sonora and in neighboring southeastern Arizona.

## Description

Its appearance is very similar to the house wren's, 11.5 to 12.5 cm (4.5 to 4.7 inches) long, with brown head and upperparts, barred with black on the wings and narrow tail. It has a stronger buff eyebrow stripe and black eyestripe than the house wren. Below it is buffy, grayer (more like the house wren) in subspecies cahooni of northern Mexico and Arizona, more ocher in the other subspecies. The flanks and undertail coverts have dark brown bars.
The voice is also similar to the house wren's. The song consists of "scratchy, chortling, warbling, and trilling" sounds, and there are scolding calls starting with a ch sound, as well as a mewing call. One sound not in the house wren's repertoire is "a bright springy trill, tseeeurr or ssreeuur, suggesting a rock wren."
The brown-throated wren's behavior is, perhaps unsurprisingly, similar to the house wren's: typically skulking but not infrequently visible, especially when singing from an open perch.

## Classification

Some authorities do not list the brown-throated wren as a separate species. An argument for lumping it with the house wren is that house wrens in the southwestern United States and northern Mexico have characters intermediate between the two species.
The brown-throated wren is considered a separate species following the Handbook of the Birds of the World. A 2005 DNA study corroborated this split by suggesting that the brown-throated wren was not only a separate species but likely not the house wren's closest relative. For further information, see Troglodytes.
As a separate species, it comprises five subspecies: brunneicollis, cahooni, compositus, nitidus, and vorhiesi.
# Blythia hmuifang

The Mizoram Ground Snake (Blythia hmuifang), is a species of snake in the subfamily Natricinae of the family Colubridae of the superfamily Colubroidea. The species is endemic to Mizoram, India.

## Etymology

The specific name hmuifang was chosen in honor of the people of the Hmuifang village.

## Description

B. hmuifang can be distinguished from B. reticulata, by having fewer ventral scales (114–117) and fewer subcaudal scales in males (20–21). Smaller, younger specimens of B. hmuifang have a bright orange-red venter, and older snakes have a creamy venter.
# Mechanicsville Historic District (Grafton, Vermont)

The Mechanicsville Historic District encompasses a cluster of residential properties that are all that remain of one of the early industrial areas of Grafton, Vermont. Located a short way east of Grafton Village on Vermont Route 121, it includes ten well-preserved 19th-century properties, some located on properties where early mills once stood. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.

## Description and history

The area that is now Grafton was first chartered in 1754, but only began to see permanent settlement in the late 1770s, in the town's Middletown section. Grafton Village developed around the confluence of two branches of the Saxtons River, a tributary of the Connecticut River. Mechanicsville, a short way downstream from Grafton Village, was, along with the main village, one of the places where grist and lumber mills were established early in the town's history. Three of its lumber mills (none of which stand anymore) survived into the 20th century, supporting the local economy until the last one closed in the 1960s. The result is a collection of residential structures, mainly from the first half of the 19th century.
The historic district consists of a cluster of twelve houses, ten of which are historical. The seven on the north side of Route 121 are roughly centered opposited the Howland Mill Bridge, while the remaining five are west of the bridge, between the road and river. Most of the houses are set close to the road, and are stylistically vernacular interpretations of Federal and Greek Revival styles, although there is one moderately Italianate house. The two non-contributing properties in the district are a modest 2000s Colonial Revival house, and a 19th-century blacksmith's shop that has been moved and converted into a residence. The contributing c.1850 Pitt Blacksmith Shop/Walker-Watrous House at 516 Rt. 121 East, affectionately known as the “Chipmunk House”, was swept away by Hurricane Irene in 2011 leaving eleven houses remaining within the district, nine of which are historical. A metal guardrail now stands in its place, just west of the Howland Mill Bridge.

# Entrepreneurs' Row

Entrepreneurs’ Row is a New Orleans loft-style office building owned by International House Hotel and created by entrepreneur Sean Cummings in July 2007. Located at 220 Camp Street, it houses several of the city's fledgling startups.
The idea for Entrepreneurs’ Row came to Cummings in May 2007, when Nicolas Perkin, the co-founder and president of the Receivables Exchange, an electronic marketplace for the buying and selling of commercial receivables, contacted him to ask his opinion on a proposed move from New York to New Orleans. Cummings encouraged him to do so. The Receivables Exchange was the first entrepreneurial tenant to move into Cummings’ building in July. By November 2008, nine companies had offices at Entrepreneurs’ Row, and Cummings had personally invested in six.
According to Cummings, the goal of the development was to focus on “clustering likeminded entrepreneurs to build their businesses together” and fuel a local tech-based economy.

## Entrepreneurship in New Orleans

Cummings partnered with Perkin and two other local entrepreneurs to launch Start Up New Orleans, a web-based information service connecting entrepreneurs with resources to set up new businesses. They have actively recruited startups to move to New Orleans.
Regarding Entrepreneurs’ Row, Start Up New Orleans, and entrepreneurship in the city in general, Cummings noted, “To really prosper, New Orleans must focus on the few opportunities in which we have a compelling competitive advantage. We must likewise recruit entrepreneurs who are drawn to this city's joyful quality of life. It’s a home-run success story. Entrepreneurs are reinventing New Orleans, like Prague after the Iron Curtain, like Milan, like a smaller Seattle.”
# Blue-and-white mockingbird

The blue-and-white mockingbird (Melanotis hypoleucus) is a species of bird in the family Mimidae. It is found in El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico.

## Taxonomy and systematics

The blue-and-white mockingbird is monotypic. It and the blue mockingbird (Melanotis caerulescens) are the only species in their genus.

## Description

The blue-and-white mockingbird is 24.2 to 28 cm (9.5 to 11.0 in) long; 20 specimens had a mean mass of 68 g (2.4 oz). The adults' upperparts are a dull slate blue that is slightly brighter on the crown. The wings and tail are slaty black. A conspicuous black "mask" covers from the lores past the eye. The underparts are white darkening to bluish or slate gray on the flanks and vent area. The juvenile has a similar pattern but its upperparts are dull slaty gray instead of blue.

## Distribution and habitat

The blue-and-white mockingbird is a year round resident of Mexico from south of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec through Guatemala to El Salvador and southern Honduras. It inhabits a variety of landscapes including the edges of humid evergreen forest, pine-oak forest, second growth, and humid and semi-arid scrublands. In elevation it ranges between 900 and 3,000 m (3,000 and 9,800 ft).

## Behavior
### Feeding

The blue-and-white mockingbird primarily forages on the ground, by sweeping aside leaf litter with its bill. Though its diet has not been fully documented, its primary food appears to be invertebrates and it also eats small fruits.

### Breeding

The blue-and-white mockingbird's breeding season extends at least from May to August. Females build the nest, a shallow cup of fibrous roots on top of a platform of sticks. It is placed in dense thickets or small trees. The clutch size is two. The female incubates the eggs and broods the nestlings but both sexes feed them.

### Vocalization

* Songs and calls
* Listen to blue-and-white mockingbird on xeno-canto
The blue-and-white mockingbird's song has been described as "an amazing medley of bird notes...[including] a rapid series of monosyllables, now a shrill squeak, now a whistle, now a guttural croak...certainly not musical or harmonious". It also has a wide variety of calls.

## Status

The IUCN has assessed the blue-and-white mockingbird as being of Least Concern. Though it has a large geographic range, its population has not been quantified and "[h]abitat destruction or degradation may jeopardize the viability of populations".
# Braintree Rural District

Braintree Rural District was a local government district in the county of Essex, England. Established under the Local Government Act of 1894, it served as an administrative division in the rural areas surrounding Braintree.

## History

Braintree Rural District was created in 1894 as part of widespread local government reforms. It initially encompassed numerous civil parishes within the county of Essex.
In 1934, the district underwent significant changes when the parish of Bocking was removed and merged into the newly established Braintree and Bocking Urban District. This division resulted in the rural district being split into two separate geographical areas. Despite this reorganization, the district retained its name and was administered from Bocking.
On 1 April 1974, the district was abolished under the Local Government Act of 1972. Its area was incorporated into the newly formed Braintree District, which combined several urban and rural areas in the region.

## Civil Parishes

At the time of its dissolution in 1974, Braintree Rural District comprised 20 civil parishes:
* Bardfield Saling
* Black Notley
* Bradwell
* Coggeshall
* Cressing
* Fairstead
* Faulkbourne
* Feering
* Finchingfield
* Great Bardfield
* Great Saling
* Hatfield Peverel
* Kelvedon
* Panfield
* Rayne
* Shalford
* Stisted
* Terling
* Wethersfield
* White Notley

## Legacy

The Braintree Rural District's legacy continues as part of the larger administrative area of the District of Braintree, which governs a mix of urban and rural communities.
# Dumas Commercial Historic District

The town's oldest surviving commercial building, the Porter Grocery, was one of several built by David Porter between 1905 and 1938. The historic district includes eight noteworthy buildings, including the Merchants & Farmers Bank building, a Colonial Revival National Register-listed building designed by Charles L. Thompson. All of the buildings occupy a single city block of South Main Street, between Choctaw and Waterman Streets. Most of the buildings of interest were built in the 1920s, and are vernacular brick commercial buildings.
The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
# Cogne lace

Cogne lace (French: dentelles de Cogne) is a handmade bobbin lace that is made in Cogne, in the Aosta Valley in Italy. It takes the form of strips of lace, due to the manner in which it is made on a drum.

## History

The tradition of Cogne lace began with the flight of the Benedictine sisters from the Cluny Abbey to the Aosta Valley in 1665. They found refuge at Saint-Nicolas and first taught bobbin lacemaking in the area, though the diffusion of their teaching was not wide.$^{:21}$ Notebooks chronicling life in Cogne, written by inhabitants some decades after the events described, document the arrival of lacemaking in the mid-1800s. However, local lacemakers had different recollections. Physical evidence in the form of similar lace-making horses indicate that the lace was introduced from great lace centers in France and Flanders via the neighboring Alpine regions.$^{:21–22}$ It was used by the women of Cogne to decorate their traditional black and white dress, with a black lace head kerchief and a white lace collar.

## Equipment

Cogne lace is handmade on a base or horse called a "cavalot", made of wood decoratively carved with rosettes or flower symbols. It may include the monogram of Christ, the year it was made, and the name of its first owner. $^{:22}$ The base supports the coessein (patois cognein for "pillow", cf. French coussin), a wide cylinder stuffed with straw or wool.$^{:22}$ Generally a male relative or fiancé made the pillow horse, which have a drawer to hold thread, pins, and bobbins.$^{:22}$
The bobbins are made of hard wood, such as apple, pear, cherry, walnut and ash, trees all found in the Alps.$^{:22}$ The lower potions of the bobbins, used as handles, are round.$^{:23}$

## Lace Designs

Cogne lace is characterized by being made without any pattern, rather it is made in an entirely mnemonic way, and uses the design on the fabric, usually checks but sometimes stripes, covering the "coessein". It is categorized as freehand lace. It produces bands that are only a few centimeters wide, up to a maximum of 7–8 cm (approximately 3 inches). The patterned fabric allows the lacemaker to keep her selvages straight, using large pins.$^{:22}$

## Today

The Mèison di pitz (Lace House, in patois cognein) is the permanent museum housing Cogne lace.$^{:24}$
