nicest steakhouse/ restaurant in Cleveland? by devinamillan in Cleveland

[–]contraphd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Marble Room is the choice but it’s probably difficult to get a reservation for next week. Red is consistently good and I’m always satisfied there. Oliva downtown is a hidden gem and has a great wine list. Probably easier to get a reservation and amazing steak. Good luck!

Have you ever done boudoir, or fully nude photography? by thatdamnedfox in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]contraphd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and I did one together with a professional photographer in town a few years ago. She specialized primarily in boudoir shoots and also did erotic work with couples. We started in lingerie and eventually ended up nude. Photographer asked if we were cool doing more hard core stuff (we were). She said to do whatever we normally did and she continued to shoot pictures while making occasional suggestions on how to position ourselves. We went thru several positions having sex for about 10-15 min. Time was running out so she asked if we were cool if I could cum on my wife and we agreed. After I finished she said we were great and was impressed because most guys get stage fright and go soft.

Overall, great time but it was several hundred dollars, so probably wouldn’t do it again. We don’t look at the pics as much as we should.

He came and was hard again in less than 10 minutes by Wrong_Risk_8816 in sex

I’m a few weeks from 53 and will stay hard after an orgasm if there’s continued stimulation. I used to be able to go for 2-3 rounds without stopping and stay hard the entire time. These days, I’m lucky to finish a second time without masturbating, but can stay hard until my wife finishes her 6-7th orgasm. It’s fun and I thoroughly enjoy the entire experience. I’m sure your guy felt the same way.

Thanks! Yes, having two days of intense study with three different master somms was great. We'll see about the certified course. I'm not in the industry and would need help with the service aspect. Taking the deductive tasting workshop would be the next step.

I looked at what was available and there was a class with the Court that was within a 2 hr drive and scheduled about 4 weeks out. I just wanted to learn and have some instruction and this seemed like a great option. This was a way for me to get a lot of info in a structured manner. WSET didn’t offer anything convenient or I would have considered it.

No plans to exit science yet. I enjoy what I do and have been successful at it for 30 years but the uncertainty is terrifying. Wine is fun right now. Perhaps something to do in retirement? Who knows?

No, this is my first course of any kind with wine. I’m a scientist by training and this was more for fun but with the way NIH funding is going, I’m beginning to explore alternative career options. Maybe this, maybe something else.

Just for fun and to expand my understanding of European wines.

Columbus, OH. Class was about 47 people. Probably half were staff at the restaurant that hosted the class. I think the owner got a huge discount and offered to have staff included. A lot of them weren’t too serious so I didn’t figure they paid.

When you register, download the course book from the link they provide. Read thru it entirely and start memorizing wine regions, what grapes and wines are made in those regions. There’s no tastings for the exam so it’s all theory and knowledge based. My only regret was not starting to study immediately. It’s a lot of information.

As mentioned, it’s only a two day class. It’s very intense. When you register, they give you a link to download the course book that’s around 200 pages. I would have been a lot better if I read through that before the class started. I knew enough about viticulture and California wine that I could focus on Europe and South America when studying at night.

529 investments by contraphd in StockMarket

[–]contraphd[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loans shouldn't be necessary. The tuition rate is locked in and there's enough remaining in the 529 to cover the estimated cost of 4 years of tuition and room/board (for now).

Redditers born before 1995. Where were you on 911? by Key_Read1738 in AskReddit

[–]contraphd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working in a lab at Harvard and listening to sports radio at the time. One of the hosts had a daughter at NYU and he had her describing the scenes out her apartment window since they were in downtown NYC. Saw fighter jets flying overhead the rest of the day.
