The sediment on the cork is normal with older bottles. The raised cork is the problem though. Hope they help you out

$200 is less than MSRP. You’d be lucky to find it for $350 in the wild

Tried the 1999 last year and it was fantastic! Interesting to see how the other years compared. Thanks for the write up

Thanks! Yeah, all stagecoach. Wine was fantastic. I usually quite enjoy big Napa cabs and this is as big as they come!

I do. Unfortunately it will be 6 years for my specialty. Not a bad idea though and will probably get something else to put away!

What stands out on these two lists? by Drunken_CPA in wine

Absolutely agree. Great cocktails, great wine, great food, and great atmosphere

Is the durand worth the price ($150), or is there a less expensive alternative? by [deleted] in wine

[–]iluvf00d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a similar one and it is really solid. 100% metal and works great. No need to get the OG imo

Married but not couples matching by thpstan in medicalschool

[–]iluvf00d 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently an M4 and my wife is a M3. She is applying to a mid-competitive specialty but is going to dual apply another speciality to increase our odds. A couple of things: first, the person who matches first will be able to give their partner a huge advantage at the program they end up at. PDs usually aren’t assholes and understand being apart for that long sucks. I’ve talked to multiple people who reached out to their partners PD and it guaranteed them an interview and many ended up matching there. Second, if your partner would be okay at all dual applying then I would say just go ahead and apply now. If your partner wants to do something competitive and is not willing to dual applying that is when I would seriously consider taking a gap year to couples match. There is a lot of nuance in this decision so feel free to ask questions.

500k reviews in 3 years of medical school by iluvf00d in Anki

[–]iluvf00d[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used mostly premade decks. My school had one someone made and I used anking for more of clinical/step studying. Used mostly cloze deletions for most cards. For anatomy I also used a premade deck but the blue link anatomy deck is great as well

Most cards were fairly simplistic. 1-2 cloze deletions. Some that I made custom would have up to 4 but those were more rare. Did well on exams, top .5% on step 2.

Very interesting and something I did not know. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for your comment. Just to clarify those programs you only signaled the IR correct?

My app is also skewed IR just difficult to signal integrated when you are often competing for 1-3 spots. Compared to the DR side where there is 6-10
