Nothing works better than a warm, referred introduction - it always gets the rightful attention. The above are good principles for you irrespective of which firm you approach / pitch to. Our email ids are not hard to guess as well! Preferably write to one person at a time, in the firm. Do check out their social profiles (LinkedIn, Twitter) to access their contact info. Please check out the team page, find the best person in the Investment team who has invested in and / or covers the sector you're building in. When writing in cold, a considered and researched mail (much like a quality college application) is the only way to attempt such a reach out. We have ensured that our internal systems catch every pitch - cold or warm or hot. Your email will certainly be read, even if it is not always responded to. But if that is not possible, do reach out to us cold. In a highly networked startup ecosystem, it is not that hard to reach us through the strongest possible mutual connection. The exceptions, while not impossible, are indeed rare.Ĭeteris paribus (all things considered), you are better off reaching us through a trusted common friend. You can count the exceptions to this rule with one hand in every cycle, and still have a few fingers to spare! These referrals come from our own founders we have backed, other founders who know that we will do right by their angel investments and our extensive set of friends, investors and well wishers in the ecosystem. As Blume has grown, we've looked at the empirical data and discovered that the vast majority of our investments were referrals from our contacts in the ecosystem. We invest in about 10-12 of these per year. This includes referrals, cold mails, DMs on social channels etc. We get anywhere between 4,000 to 5,000 ideas pitched to us annually, across the team, across all formats. The above framework helps us shortlist but finally, it is a (increasingly improving) trained gut call that ends up building out the portfolio. Great founders overcome all of this but if we can select such that we have better odds at the starting point, why not? As the funding ecosystem matures, we may shrink weightage of this in the future. We force ourselves to evaluate how much capital may be required to build to exitable scale and how challenging it is to raise that capital. Investability or probability of next rounds of capital: The reality of how the later stage funding market is shaped to take risky bets in the ecosystem is important to consider while funding, especially in young and concentrated ecosystems like India, and that’s why we attribute 20% weightage to this element in India. In every decision, once the other two factors are seen as a go, the clincher element in a yes/no decision boils down to the founding team – their expertise in solving for this space, as well as the integrity, mission, passion and persistence that one can gauge at this early stage of business. At Blume, we try to find a portfolio balance between founders who can chase a large market opportunity domestically or build a tech-led differentiated product for global markets (which increaseįounding teams: These are the most important variables for us or even most VCs at our stage. For example, are Ola and Uber a ride hailing app or a large scale urban transportation business? The market size expands 5-10x when the latter is applied. That said, one has to begin with the aggregate opportunity being very large. ![]() The best founders know how to reshape a market opportunity and build solutions to fit the largest of the market opportunities. Market size or opportunity: Pick too small a market and even the best team can’t build a large scalable business. Let us double click on these three criteria. ![]() Our approximate weightage for Opportunity : Team : Investability is 40 : 40 : 20. In our framework, we look at three criteria to evaluate startups – size of market or opportunity, team quality and finally, investability or probability of the next round of capital. ![]() ![]() ![]() However, I don’t believe that these reviews are accurate descriptions of this eye cream. I know that this product received mixed reviews when it was first launched and I remember a few negative reviews from people who said that this cream would look like under-eye chalk (?) or that it would leave them with glittery skin around their eyes. I’ll definitely use it up because it hydrates the skin under my eyes nicely, but I don’t think that I would repurchase this eye cream because I can’t use it under my make-up. I’m not sure whether to recommend this product or not. The eye cream contains shimmer particles which appear to reflect light this makes dark circles disappear if you look at your eyes from the right angle. And my answer is that it helps to a certain extent – whilst the cream is on. I know you wonder whether this eye cream actually helps with dark circles or not. This means that I can only wear this eye cream when I’m not wearing make-up, which is overnight and on the odd day when I’m not leaving the house. There may not be any problems at all with other foundations, but I’m not changing my (holy grail!) foundation for a non. ![]() ![]() I use Max Factor’s Pan Stik which doesn’t work with this eye cream. It’s not horrible, but it’s just enough to render it unsuitable for wear under make-up. One thing that annoys me is that this eye cream is too rich. When I cleanse my face and don’t reapply the cream, I can’t see any difference between now and four weeks ago. I can see that it makes lines appear less pronounced, but this effect is only temporary. This eye cream glides on smoothly and it hydrates my under-eye area nicely. They absorb really quickly and brightened my undereye area within a few days of use! Also, my concealor goes on smoother ontop of this eye cream, so fab bonus.Hi there! I’ve been using this Olay Regenerist Luminous Dark Circle Correcting Eye Swirl for about four weeks – and now’s the time to share my findings.

Olay Regenerist Luminous Anti-Dark Circle Correcting Eye Treatment 15ml, £29.99 There is one negative… This day cream does not have any SPF, so if I don’t have any SPF in my makeup I have to go over the cream with a light sunscreen like Neutrogena sheer touch, as it’s the only one that goes on well on top of other products whilst leaving a good base for makeup. This is going on my repurchase list, as I have seen such great result. I use very little and never feel I have slick of cream on my face and at the same time this keeps my skin hydrated well all day.

To achieve maximum crisp salt the eggplant to draw-out excess moisture. I prefer crispy eggplant for low carb eggplant Parmesan. They are supposed to be soft like a noodle. The difference being that the eggplant slices in the lasagna recipe are layered with wet ingredients and baked together. Who doesn’t like stacks of crispy eggplant coated in keto breading, topped with Marinara, fresh Mozzarella cheese, basil, and Parmesan? My family loves it! To Salt or Not To Salt?Īlthough I found it unnecessary to salt the sliced eggplant in my keto eggplant lasagna recipe, I did salt the eggplant for this recipe. Just roll to store.ĬAUTION: never use a knife to cut on it.THIS POST INCLUDES AFFILIATE LINKS TO SHARE THE THINGS I LOVE. What a great invention! They are reusable and washable so you will save money too. Like this one. For years we baked using parchment paper, having to cut to size and throw away every time, then one day, we ran out of paper when we needed it! Until we discovered silicone baking liners. Make sure to line your baking sheet with foil, parchment paper, or better a reusable silicone baking liner because it tends to make a little mess between the tomato sauce and the breadcrumbs! Be careful to keep an eye on your stacks when they bake because the breadcrumb topping can easily burn (yes like in the picture below!) But don’t worry, you can just flake off the offending crumbs and everything below is perfect. In thi s recipe, you mix your favorite dried herbs with a little olive oil in panko breadcrumbs and use that to top your stacks. As a result, it is ideal for baking and making light fried food (think tempura). Panko breadcrumbs are flakier and absorb less oil. Made entirely from dried crustless white bread and nothing else, it is a healthier (lower in calories, fat, and sodium) and tastier alternative to regular breadcrumbs. So, one way to get around this (short of making your own from day-old stale bread), is to buy panko. If you are used to buying seasoned breadcrumbs you may be surprised (as I was when I started to read the ingredients) that many brands contain some form of dairy-like casein, dry milk powder, whey, or some combination. This dish being of Italian origin, I wanted to stay within the theme!įor the touch of green, spinach is a perfect choice because it is tender but you can use arugula leaves or any other greens you like. So I cut little cubes to have an even coverage but you could use other brands you like. I even think that it is better than regular mozzarella because it isn’t so rubbery and it has more flavor too. I love the brand Miyoko’s mozzarella, it is the best I have tasted. As you can tell from the photo, this eggplant was small in size but it made 4 stacks, so depending on your appetite you can serve 2 hungry people or 4! What vegan cheese to use? You don’t want them mushy, just lightly softened because you need them to hold the stack. The idea is just to soften the slices before you bake the stack. Or, you can brush each slice with some olive oil and bake at 350F for 10-15 minutes. If you sprinkle the slices with some coarse salt, let them sweat for 15 minutes in a colander to drain the juice, then pat them dry as much as possible then you have 2 choices, if you are in a hurry, you can pan fry the slices in a little water with a teaspoon of oil. The fiber of eggplant is similar to a sponge so if you cook it in oil, you will end up with an oily sponge! The good news is that you do not need oil to tenderize slices of eggplant. You can use almost a cup of oil if you are not careful. I, for one, try at all costs to stay away from do ing that. When you make a traditional eggplant parmesan you always fry the eggplant slices in a generous amount of oil and that is one of the reasons why this dish can be heavy. What’s not to like? To precook or not to pre-cook the eggplants? One that is more delicate, has fewer calories, cooks faster, and looks beautiful. You are not building a skyscraper, that would definitely turn into a falling tower of Pisa! The idea is more along the line of a deconstructed and lighter version of eggplant parmesan. We didn’t have quite enough to make a whole eggplant ‘parmesan dish… what to do? What if we made free-standing stacks? Alternating a layer of eggplant, followed by a slice of tomato or thick tomato sauce (or both) maybe some pesto, some vegan cheese, some spinach. We didn’t want to use them to make baba ganoush (one of our all-year-round favorite dips). It is this time of the year when some of our smaller eggplants are almost ready to harvest. ![]() ![]() ![]() Are there any collectible radios manufactured after 1963?ĭepending on the taste of individual buyers, vintage transistor radios are not relegated to the 1960s only.

He took her in his embrace and Hypnos went to work putting him to sleep, with Hera in his arms. He told her that he was never in love with anyone as much as he loved her at that moment. Zeus said that she could go any time, and that she should postpone her visit and stay there with him so they could enjoy each other's company. She told him that she wanted to go help her parent stop quarrelling and she stopped there to consult him because she didn't want to go without his knowledge and have him be angry with her when he found out. Zeus asked Hera what she was doing there and why she had come from Olympus, and she told him the same lie she told Aphrodite. Zeus was extremely taken by her and suspected nothing as Hypnos was shrouded in a thick mist and hidden upon a pine tree that was close to where Hera and Zeus were talking. Hera went to see Zeus on Gargarus, the topmost peak of Mount Ida. Hypnos made her swear by the river Styx and call on gods of the underworld to be witnesses so that he would be ensured that he would marry Pasithea. Hera finally got him to agree by promising that he would be married to Pasithea, one of the youngest Graces, whom he had always wanted to marry. He refused this first offer, remembering the last time he tricked Zeus. ![]() ![]() Hera first offered him a beautiful golden seat that can never fall apart and a footstool to go with it. This made Hypnos reluctant to accept Hera's proposal and help her trick Zeus again. Hypnos managed to avoid Zeus by hiding with his mother, Nyx. When Zeus awoke he was furious and went on a rampage looking for Hypnos. So she had Hypnos put Zeus to sleep, and set blasts of angry winds upon the sea while Heracles was still sailing home. She was furious that Heracles, Zeus' son, sacked the city of the Trojans. It was Hera who had asked him to trick Zeus the first time as well. Hypnos was reluctant because the last time he had put the god to sleep, he was furious when he awoke. Hera called on Hypnos and asked him to help her by putting Zeus to sleep. Hera was almost ready to trick Zeus, but she needed the help of Hypnos, who had tricked Zeus once before. She told Aphrodite that she wanted the charm to help herself and Zeus stop fighting. In order to procure the charm, however, she lied to Aphrodite because they sided on opposite sides of the war. She then called for Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and asked her for a charm that would ensure that her trick would not fail. She wove flowers through her hair, put on three brilliant pendants for earrings, and donned a wondrous robe. So she washed herself with ambrosia and anointed herself with oil, made especially for her to make herself impossible for Zeus to resist. She decided that in order to trick him she needed to make him so enamoured with her that he would fall for the trick. During the war, Hera loathed her brother and husband, Zeus, so she devised a plot to trick him. Hypnos was able to trick him and help the Danaans win the Trojan War. Hypnos and Thanatos carrying the body of Sarpedon from the battlefield of Troy detail from an Attic white-ground lekythos, ca. His wife, Pasithea, was one of the youngest of the Charites and was promised to him by Hera, who is the goddess of marriage and birth. Nyx was a dreadful and powerful goddess, and even Zeus feared to enter her realm. However, sometimes he was the son of Nyx and Erebus, the god of Darkness. Hypnos' mother was Nyx (Νύξ, "Night"), the goddess of Night, without a father. Hypnos lived next to his twin brother, Thanatos (Θάνατος, "death") in the Underworld, where the rays of the sun never reach them. He is said to be a calm and gentle god, as he helps humans in need and, due to their sleep, owns half of their lives. According to Homer, he lives on the island Lemnos, which later on has been claimed to be his very own dream-island. No light and no sound would ever enter his grotto. His bed is made of ebony, on the entrance of the cave grow a number of poppies and other soporific plants. According to rumors, Hypnos lived in a big cave, which the river Lethe ("Forgetfulness") comes from and where night and day meet. Both siblings live in the underworld ( Hades). Hypnos is usually the fatherless son of Nyx ("The Night"), although sometimes Nyx's consort Erebus ("The Darkness") is named as his father. Pausanias wrote that Hypnos was a dearest friend of the Muses. His name is the origin of the word hypnosis. In Greek mythology, Hypnos ( / ˈ h ɪ p n ɒ s/ Ancient Greek: Ὕπνος means 'sleep') also spelled Hypnus is the personification of sleep the Roman equivalent is known as Somnus. ![]() |
