![]() We’re trying really hard to make that path to purchase the most attractive - and now also unlocking that via Amazon. That includes things like free shipping and early access to new flavors. We’ve added benefits to subscribing in addition to the 20% discount. 32% of our orders come from subscribers - so it’s a very significant portion of sales. Tell me about subscription: Is that a big help for forecasting? And how do you make that an attractive proposition? Back then, I could process a purchase order for inventory and get product the following week - but today, that timeline’s extended to 14 weeks - so we’re often in the dark on what’s required to not overshoot, while not selling out. And then after all that - COVID supply chain issues were our next challenge. We started with the smallest batch possible (45,000 bars), but we sold out in 2 days. We’ve been fortunate to sell out a few times, but that also means our sales drastically go up and then back down when that happens. Forecasting supply is really the area I most struggled to get to grips with.

![]() When I was in high school it was the “popular” girl with the hottest body, just purely physical (immature I know). “My idea of my dream has changed all through the years. And a woman that I can sit next to when we’re older and laugh at all the great moments we shared throughout our years.” Joe, 30 A woman of great virtues to pass onto our children. I see a woman that I can lock eyes with across the room and we can share the same thought without sharing a word. Someone who doesn’t get discourage during trying times and finds the good in everything. I see someone who is full of life and passion. I see a supportive best friend and someone I can rely on and be present for as well. Opening my eyes in the morning and seeing a radiant smile. “When I see my dream girl I envision sunshine. Being spontaneous is a plus too.” Michael, 36 She would be athletic (take care of herself). Has a sense of humor and doesn’t take life so serious. “My dream girl consist of a pretty girl of course, who loves to laugh a lot. “My dream girl does not live on this planet.” Kevin, 36 She would have a great personality while not being one of those high class girls that needs a lot of maintenance.” Sean, 32 “My dream girl would be a girl who has a sense of humor, likes country music, and doesn’t mind being a model for my photography. ![]() The pain caused by sorrows past that fuel the feelings summoned here are supplied by the listener who gets involved, whether he or she likes it or not.Dreamgirl: Noun One’s ideal vision of a female companion. It’s three chords, an easy to remember melody, lyrics that reach back in time and ask very big questions, and you’ll have something to yell about. However, if you’re wired differently, you can’t help but being annoyed by it. ![]() Which is why most fans are so vocal about their love. Of course, this is not for everybody, but if it’s for you, if the chemicals in your brain respond to everything Mangum gives us, then there’s little as powerful as his music. It’s a vulnerability that can’t be faked, paired with beautiful, tragic poetry with biblical and historical images that evoke feelings in our brain that we can’t escape. His voice often cracks, he screams and misses the note, howling in despair. Jeff Mangum is an exposed nerve, an acne covered high school student who can’t stop reading his poetry out loud to the cheerleader he fell in love with. Maybe it’s just the song title, though I refuse to believe that. Perhaps it really is the familiarity of the chord change that makes “My Dreamgirl Don’t Exist” click, or maybe it’s the theme Jeff Mangum touches on (about being in love with a girl he found in a history book) or the lines he uses in later Milk songs (more notably “Ghost”), but I can’t think of something sadder. Having said that, I understand the importance of the mention the almost cliche progression plays a role in the sentiment within this song, and it’s something that defines Neutral Milk Hotel. When you Google this song, you find an entry at the Neutral Milk Hotel archive that explicitly states that it has the same chord progression as Green Day’s “When I Come Around.” It’s a curious thing, I guess, but somehow it feels irrelevant. ![]() ![]() ![]() There's also a lot of help and a thriving community online, if you get hooked and want to know more.Inkscape is an amazing piece of open source software, a vector graphics application that’s a million times more lightweight than comparable commercial offerings while coming in at the low, low price of free. Hopefully that's tempted you to download this application and play with it. If you've played Flash games on a website, you've seen vector graphics in action, and you might have already discovered that you can make downloaded Flash games bigger. You've probably seen vector graphics without even realizing it: Adobe Flash, the most common way to show animations in a web browser, uses them. Just math, telling the computer application how the bits all relate to each other. As you scale it up, the computer does the math and draws everything bigger, but not fuzzier, because there are no dots. ![]() The design can be any size, as big or as small as you like, and the quality stays the same regardless. ![]() Think of it not as a photo or a painting, but as a set of instructions. Everything needed to reproduce the design is there, but at no specific size. When you draw your vector art on the computer screen, what's stored is the math behind the drawing, not the drawing itself. ![]() In fact, it's not even an image, it's a text file, written in a code called XML, which describes the relationships of all the objects in the design to each other. Blow it up again after shrinking it down, and it looks like a Lego toy, because once you've lost detail, you can't get it back.Ī vector graphic, though, isn't graphical at all - it's mathematical, and it's not even in color. Shrink it down enough, and the fine details get lost. Blow it up, and the quality gets far worse, because the dots get bigger too. The size of this pattern is fixed, with a set number of dots, or pixels, occupying a set space and relationship to the rest. If you're curious about vector graphics, this is probably not the place for a long explanation but the short one goes like this: bitmap graphics such as JPG and BMP files are made up of numbers that represent a pattern of dots, or pixels. And it's not hard to convert vector graphics into bitmaps, though after that, they become just as inflexible as bitmap files too. Thanks, guys.īTW this is a format which is now read natively by all the major web browsers except (of course) Internet Explorer, but there's a plug-in for that now, too. It's a constant amazement to see what spare-time coders and designers give away for free, and a privilege to be able to use apps like this without having to install bloatware and be charged over the top for it. So don't be put off by the masses of menus and buttons, start drawing basic shapes and just mess around for a while until you're hooked enough on the vector graphic style to want to learn more. If you've done even the smallest amount of drawing with a vector art application, or even just toyed with the pen tool in Photoshop or similar bitmap art and photo apps, there's not much of a learning curve here and you can pretty much dive in and play with it straight away. Perfect for learning how to use vector graphics, and easily capable of producing professional work if you are, so don't overlook it just because you don't have to spend $400 on it.Īll the basics are here, including bezier curve drawing, manipulating shapes and colors, freehand line drawing and painting and all the basic vector graphic tools. An under-promoted open source alternative to Adobe Illustrator, lacking some of the power tools, but being open source, it's entirely free. ![]() ![]() Players can select the troops they’d like to train and send them on missions with their Followers.Players can view their Followers and manage their equipment and upgrades.Players can then plan their adventures for when they’re in game.Players can view active World Quests available for their character and the available rewards from directly within the app.Conduct research to unlock upgrades and track the status of your War Talent Tree, maintaining the momentum of your in-game progress.Collect rewards from completed missions, manage your champions, upgrade their gear, and recruit troops for future missions.Send champions and troops out on missions for your faction, all while you’re on the go.With the app players can view active World Quests, emissary bounties, and available rewards and then plan their adventures for when they’re in the game.It’s not all Shadowlands as players can also use the app for other expansions, which includes: Players can view active Callings Quests and available rewards from directly within the app to help plan their exploits for when they’re in the game.Players can view their Adventurers and their status before they send them on their next Adventure.Players can then set Adventurers to undertake them.Players can view all the Adventures available to their character and the associated rewards. ![]() With the app, players can do these things: With the new Adventures feature, players can delve into their role as a member of one of the four Covenants which are Kyrian, Necrolord, Night Fae, and Venthyr.

With two prolific kid artists in residence, my family has struggled to find a good method for corralling our assorted markers, crayons, and colored pencils. (Just keep in mind that kids develop at different rates, so all age recommendations should be taken with a grain of salt.) And please share your own best ideas in the comments below. We also have guides to gifts for tweens and teens. If you’re looking for more kids gift ideas, check out our guides to the best gifts for 1-year-olds, 2-year-olds, 3-year-olds, 4-year-olds, 6-year-olds, 7-year-olds, 8-year-olds, 9-year-olds, and 10-year-olds, as well as thoughtful stocking stuffers for kids. We relied on the advice of Tenuto and other experts-as well as that of parents and caregivers on our staff-to identify memorable and engaging gifts for 5-year-olds. Books to build their library are wonderful choices, and board games are also great, especially cooperative ones that require working together as a group. ![]() You could look for gifts that complement a child’s natural curiosities, whether they love to create art, grow stuff, play sports, make music, or get up close and personal with insects. Kids automatically get an educational benefit from any number of well-designed, engaging toys, said John Tenuto, a sociology instructor at the College of Lake County, in Grayslake, Illinois, who has studied toys and collectibles (and is an expert featured on the Netflix series The Toys That Made Us). Learning is at the center of a 5-year-old’s life, but that doesn’t mean they need so-called educational toys. Toys and kits that let them engage in project-based inquiry-such as performing simple science experiments and exploring nature-can help them make connections between what they’re exposed to in the classroom and what they experience out in the world. Many 5-year-olds are starting kindergarten, and they’re exploring new subjects and ideas in school for the first time. We hope these Drunk Jenga ideas have inspired you to create your own game! As always, be safe and keep an eye on your friends.By the time kids are 5, they’re developing skills and more-specific interests that open up new gift-giving possibilities.

![]() ![]() It possibly made me overlook warning signs. “He used to spend hours talking to me about material and complimenting my mind and validating me. Thurman got to know Weinstein and his first wife, Eve, in the afterglow of “Pulp Fiction.” “I knew him pretty well before he attacked me,” she said. Something like that tunes the dial one way or another, right? You become more compliant or less compliant, and I think I became less compliant.” ![]() When I got home, I remember I stood in front of the mirror and I looked at my hands and I was so mad at them for not being bloody or bruised. He told me the door was locked but I never ran over and tried the knob. “I tried to say no, I cried, I did everything I could do. “I was ultimately compliant,” she remembers. She says when she was 16, living in a studio apartment in Manhattan and starting her movie career, she went to a club one winter night and met an actor, nearly 20 years older, who coerced her afterward when they went to his Greenwich Village brownstone for a nightcap. (She had a brief first marriage to Gary Oldman.) Her hall features a large golden Buddha from her parents in Woodstock her father, Robert Thurman, is a Buddhist professor of Indo-Tibetan studies at Columbia who thinks Uma is a reincarnated goddess.īut beneath that reserve and golden aura, she has learned to be a street fighter. In interviews over the years, Thurman has offered a Zen outlook - even when talking about her painful breakup from Hawke. Her two older kids with Ethan Hawke, Maya, an actress, and Levon, a high school student, also drop by. Luna is in her pj’s, munching on a raw cucumber. Stretching out her lanky frame on a brown velvet couch in front of the fire, Thurman tells her story, with occasional interruptions from her 5-year-old daughter with her ex, financier Arpad Busson. So what you really saw was a person buying time.”īy Thanksgiving, Thurman had begun to unsheathe her Hattori Hanzo, Instagramming a screen shot of her “roaring rampage of revenge” monologue and wishing everyone a happy holiday, “(Except you Harvey, and all your wicked conspirators - I’m glad it’s going slowly - you don’t deserve a bullet) - stay tuned.” “I was not a groundbreaker on a story I knew to be true. “I used the word ‘anger’ but I was more worried about crying, to tell you the truth,” she says now. When asked about the scandal on the red carpet at the October premiere for her Broadway play, “The Parisian Woman,” an intrigue about a glamorous woman in President Trump’s Washington written by “House of Cards” creator Beau Willimon, she looked steely and said she was waiting to feel less angry before she talked about it. “I stand as both a person who was subjected to it and a person who was then also part of the cloud cover, so that’s a super weird split to have,” she says. Thurman stresses that Creative Artists Agency, her former agency, was connected to Weinstein’s predatory behavior. And all these lambs walked into slaughter because they were convinced nobody rises to such a position who would do something illegal to you, but they do.” Quentin used Harvey as the executive producer of ‘Kill Bill,’ a movie that symbolizes female empowerment. “I am one of the reasons that a young girl would walk into his room alone, the way I did. “The complicated feeling I have about Harvey is how bad I feel about all the women that were attacked after I was,” she told me one recent night, looking anguished in her elegant apartment in River House on Manhattan’s East Side, as she vaped tobacco, sipped white wine and fed empty pizza boxes into the fireplace. “Pulp Fiction” made Weinstein rich and respected, and Thurman says he introduced her to President Barack Obama at a fund-raiser as the reason he had his house. (With a foot fetish thrown in.) But beneath the glistening Oscar gold, there was a dark undercurrent that twisted the triangle. A spellbound Tarantino often described his auteur-muse relationship with Thurman - who helped him conceive the idea of the bloody bride - as an Alfred Hitchcock-Ingrid Bergman legend. The Miramax troika was the ultimate in indie cool. Playing foxy Mia Wallace in 1994’s “Pulp Fiction” and ferocious Beatrix Kiddo in “Kill Bill,” Volumes 1 (2003) and 2 (2004), Thurman was the lissome goddess in the creation myth of Harvey Weinstein and Quentin Tarantino. We’re talking about Hollywood, where even an avenging angel has a hard time getting respect, much less bloody satisfaction. She has been betrayed and gaslighted by those she trusted.Īnd we’re not talking about her role as the blood-spattered bride in “Kill Bill.” We’re talking about a world that is just as cutthroat, amoral, vindictive and misogynistic as any Quentin Tarantino hellscape. ![]() ![]() ![]() It should be successfully authenticated as shown below.
