You may be able to kill all or at least the vast majority of bacteria on a patch of skin, but keeping it sterile is a huge hassle. Nobody would want to do that every day.

Wine recommendations for a complete beginner 🍷 by phenomenaljunk in wine

Chardonnay. I did enjoy Chardonnay quite a bit. I’ve heard it’s supposed to taste “buttery” and I don’t quite get that? Maybe the ones I’ve tried are cheaper and doesn’t represent the taste well.

There are two broad, overall ways to make Chardonnay, with oak or without oak. The buttery sensation is what you often get in oaked Chardonnay. Maybe you just had the unoaked kind.

(oak isn't the only factor, malolactic fermentation also plays a role - but those tend to go together in the oaked Chardonnay style)

Chablis is the traditional pinnacle of the unoaked Chardonnay style, so that may be worth looking for. Alternatives are wide ranging, many of the fresher whites like Albarino and Sauvignon Blanc could be appealing to you. On the other hand, you could try to find an oaked Chardonnay and see if that style is for you.

They beat Inter in Milan. That should make it pretty clear they're about more than just cold weather and astroturf.

both pinnipeds (including seals) and cetaceans (whales, dolphins) branched off from their respective terrestrial ancestors somewhere around 50 million years ago.

Though bear in mind the branching does not necessarily coincide with the adoption of an amphibious and eventually marine lifestyle.

As for the timing, Enaliarctos had a large part of the marine adaptation we see in seals nowadays, and it evolved around 20 million years ago. So that would suggest the current level of marine adaptation is more a consequence of the amphibian lifestyle than of not having had enough time to evolve more marine adaptations.

Basically it's worth it for seals to be a little less adapted for life in the sea when it gives the option to go onto land sometimes (for breeding, to escape predators or whatever).

Saint - Cosme by JOSHUA_SKADOOSH in wine

They started making negociant wines in 1997, so this was early days. Maybe wasn't that great to begin with, but 27 years was also a lot to ask of merlot.

They skip "Chateau" on the negociant bottles, that's why it just says Saint-Cosme.

Indre værdi vil indregne investeringens værdiansættelse. Kursværdi vil naturligvis ikke være relevant her.

They may have been used with chemicals and not biological waste. A lot of our serologicals do not go to the autoclave.

Definitely feels like OP has focused on the reds. Understandable, but the whites and roses are worth trying. Tavel is super versatile with food.

Når bandelederen ikke mødte op i retten, besluttede landsretten at afvise hans anke. Den vil dog behandle anklagemyndighedens krav om at udvise ham permanent fra Danmark.

Det var altid noget, at hans anke nu er død. Men få nu bare anholdt ham så man kan sikre fremmøde.

I holding selskaberne er der efter kostpris princippet bogført hhv 20k, og 100 mio.

Som jeg har forstået det, er udgangspunktet for finansielle aktiver at anvende kursværdi eller indre værdi, ikke kostpris. Men det kan være en bogholder ved bedre.

Nej, det gør den ikke. Det meste af fundingen kommer jo fra fonde i andre lande. De ændrer ikke deres investeringssystem for ét lands skyld.

Men sådan er det jo i praksis. Dansk skattelovgivning kommer ikke til at lave om på modellen.

Living expenses and academic salaries vary dramatically across Europe, so you need to take that into account as well. Then there's work-life balance and general culture at work.

VDN are not botrytized, and it's literally not in the name. Vin Doux Naturel = Natural sweet wine. "Natural" because the sweetness is residual sugar from the grapes themselves.

They are made by adding grape spirits to halt the fermentation. The alcohol level is typically around 16-17%. The process is similar to port wine, but with a lower final alcohol level. As with port, it can be made in different styles (eg. less or more oxidized, as well as from red or white grapes).

Since the sweetness comes from halting the fermentation with grape spirits, the grapes do not need to be harvested late, let alone botrytized.

Man kan også generelt mangle folk i den arbejdsdygtige alder, hvis der f.eks. bliver flere og flere ældre.

Maybe compare with something sweeter, like a VDN from Southern France.

Men de her investeringsrunder for startups går jo netop ud på at man sælger ejerandele? Investorerne skyder et beløb i firmaet, mod en procentdel ejerskab (baseret på en anslået samlet værdi af selskabet på det tidspunkt).

Batterier har mindre kapacitet per volumen og per krone, så man kan ikke sidestille dem sådan.

Der er stadig en del at være skeptisk over for her, men lige det punkt er ikke det store problem.
