Lots 22, 28, 29, and 83 were also posted in the club house as for rent. Lot 52 was for rent for $650 a month including electricity. When we visited over Labor Day weekend there were a couple of lots for sale or rent. Our daughter had a blast riding her scooter around and around the half-mile loop all weekend. This is not the type of camper you take to different state parks each weekend.Īlthough River’s Edge RV Park did not have a playground or swimming pool, it was perfect for kids to ride bikes and scooters. It’s a trailer the size of a fifth wheel, but it’s apparent this is what you would buy if you are going to remain stationary. Multiple brands make this type of travel trailer. One of the popular RVs in the campground was the “cottage” camper. Majority of the park was filled with campers who leave their rig there permanently, set-up and ready for a vacation. While we were there, the neighbors directly to each side of us were gone for the weekend. Michelle and James really like their neighbors, so there is no issue with it. Because of the way the lots are set up there is not much privacy in these sites. Most campsites on the river have decks that look out onto the water. Our daughter loved this deck and thought that it was her stage for the weekend. They have a toy hauler so they built a tall deck that the porch of their camper connects to. Michelle and James built a fire pit to put their solo stove on. ![]() ![]() The outdoor living space is located on the back of the site. The lot has a large shed that they use for storage, extra sleeping arrangements, and a work room. Michelle and James purchased this lot in 2021 to use as a home base because they travel full-time. The lot we stayed on was paved, full hook-up, and looked over the Nottely River with a beautiful deck. We did not bring any floats with us, but it would be great for tubing. Michelle and James’s neighbor let us use their steps to play in the river on Saturday. Some owners have built steps down to the river and decks that overlook it. It has views of the mountains, but the most appealing attraction is the Nottely River. When a lot does become available for purchase it is posted to Zillow.įrom the main road you would never know the campground is located in the valley.

If you don’t want to share the entire contents of a PDF with ChatGPT, or if the PDF contains images or formatting that can’t be easily copied and pasted, you can convert the PDF to a text file before uploading it. PDF to ChatGPT conversion enables you to provide instant responses to inquiries, eliminating the need for help. Let’s test it! PDF to ChatGPT conversion is an excellent way to bring your written content to life in a new formatĬhatGPT will then be able to access the content through the link and analyze the article. Copy the link to the file and paste it into the ChatGPT chat window. If you upload the article as a PDF to services like Drive and more, ChatGPT cannot process the information. To do this, give a direct link to the content. This method is particularly useful if the PDF file is too large to copy and paste or if you don’t want to share the entire contents of the PDF with ChatGPT. Provide a link to the contentĪnother way to share a PDF with ChatGPT is to provide a link to the file. PDF to ChatGPT conversion can help you reduce the workload. However, if your content is above 600 words, you should try other ways for the best results. In this way, you can easily let ChatGPT read PDFs. With PDF to ChatGPT conversion, you can easily transform a static document into a dynamic conversational experience ChatGPT will then analyze the text and provide insights based on the information you’ve shared.Īs an example, we copy and paste the GPT-4 Technical Report‘s one of the parts, and based on the given text, ChatGPT answered our question correctly. Next, go to the ChatGPT chat window and paste the text by right-clicking and selecting “Paste” or using the keyboard shortcut “Ctrl+V” (Windows) or “Command+V” (Mac). Then, right-click and select “Copy” or use the keyboard shortcut “Ctrl+C” (Windows) or “Command+C” (Mac) to copy the text. To do this, open the PDF in a PDF reader or editor, and select the text you want to copy. This will allow ChatGPT to analyze and respond to the text you’ve provided.

On the other hand, I'd say it's not without its values and has some wisdom about how Python maintainers should proceed with language's future development. I've seen one too many posts (here or elsewhere) that treats Zen as a set of gold ideas in Python when in fact, as far as I understand it, it isn't. Another PEP suggests disagreements among Python maintainers about the interpretation of another aphorism. On the other hand, this PEP specifically addressed one item of the Zen as a calumny against the Python language in its early days and therefore shouldn't be taken seriously. And among the dev-python google group (where "key Python developers discuss the future of the language and its implementation"), the Zen is frequently quoted to argue for or against a particular design. However, many PEP over the years have quoted the Zen of Python as motivations, rationales etc. Some suggested that this is just a joke, which makes some sense. However, the source code of this easter egg goes out of its way to violate many (if not all) of these principles. The Zen of Python is supposedly, by its literal description, the "guiding principles" from Guido himself.

This paint last saw the light of day in about 1992, and even then it was looking rather defeated, much like 14 year old Alex of the same era when he realized he possessed far too much inherent fear and not nearly enough athletic ability to become the next Tony Hawk. Our walls in this room have a very old coat of paint on them. ![]() But before we could launch into the actual plastering process, we had to make sure our plaster had something to really hold onto. They had been plaster buttoned, scraped of liquid nails, and patched with drywall where necessary, At that point we were ready to begin putting everything back together again and making our walls smooth and solid. In our last post on our work in this room, we described how we had painstakingly prepared our walls. The missing plaster was patched in with drywall against the wood lath. And most importantly, we're making updates that will hopefully stand the test of time and will preserve our home for many generations of future owners. In our dining room plaster repair project we're applying the skim in multiple coats and eliminating sanding as a part of our process (which is seriously cutting down on the mess and, as a result, improving spousal approval of the technique). When it comes down to it, we must challenge ourselves to grow and learn, evolving in our approach to plastering, much like our distant ancestors discovering that a sugary drink and a little added yeast allowed to sit for long enough in the right conditions turned them into delicious alcoholic beverages, which after sufficient chilling, can be used to celebrate the completion of a plastering job well done. This doesn't mean we were wrong in what we did, simply that there's a better way for future work. Primarily, they were a real mess to create, and they tend to ding and chip far easier than we'd like. But when it comes down to it, even though our walls and ceilings look rather lovely, smooth, and like beautiful old plaster some 15 years removed from the original work, there are problems. Not only did I learn this flawed technique, for years I peddled it as the righteous path forward as I shared our progress. Oh, and we've even been featured in a published guide on how to attempt some DIY plaster repair (that makes some in the historic plaster repair community cringe because it used joint compound as an ingredient)! See '90s Alex, all that time spent memorizing the lyrics to Rapper's Delight and figuring out how to dance like MC Hammer have paid off, now you're a pseudo plaster expert and can grow a semi respectable yet unreasonably creepy looking mustache. Along the way we've picked up tips and tricks, we've made plenty of mistakes, and we finally feel like we're starting to get the hang of this whole plastering thing.until we learn more that makes us second guess what we've done in the past and we begin to think we're actually just total crap at plastering. In our 15 years we've learned more about plaster than we ever expected when we first bought our historic home. Go ahead and play another game of Joe Montana Football on your Sega Genesis and call me when you're less obsessed with Andre Agassi. Don't worry 13 year old Alex, you're even more lame at 13 than 40 year old you, you just don't know it yet. ![]() My teenage self of the early '90s just read that statement and cringed at what his life has become.

Ready to start practicing mindful drinking? Take the 3-minute quiz to build your personalized plan. But seeking balance and moderation is key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle and always feeling your best. It’s normal to end a day with a little beverage as a reward. In fact, 54% of US adults claim to drink 3 or more times a week, and 48% reported drinking 3 or more drinks each time, which actually exceeds the CDCs recommended guidelines for healthy drinking. This has led to 82% of people saying they do most of their drinking at home, and 33% reporting that they’ve been drinking alone more frequently. On top of that, frequent lockdowns over the past few years have meant fewer opportunities to decompress and socialize with friends and family. And even if you close Instagram or Facebook for a few minutes, it can feel impossible to escape the daily chaos that is all around us. Our news feeds are full of sad, depressing and painful stories (but also memes). After all, alcohol consumption has increased dramatically, and considering how many stressful events have been taking place around the globe, it makes sense.

Reilly’s approach to cooking was similarly salt-of-the-earth. ![]() She just went in and did her job every day, like most blue-collar people." A nd yet Reilly was never one to trumpet her achievements, her son, Thomas B. After taking time off to raise her children in 1961, she returned to the company two decades later, now in the role of manager of the Campbell's Kitchen, a position she held until her retirement in 1988. As a supervisor at Campbell’s, “she was a trailblazer in a world in which women were generally on the sidelines of corporate America,” according to a video tribute from her alma mater. ![]() Born in 1926, in Woodbury, New Jersey, she was raised in Camden, and became one of the first members in her family to attend college. Reilly’s pioneering accomplishments were not limited to the test kitchen. You can find upgraded versions of the recipe ( Bon Appétit, for instance, recommends ditching the canned soup for whole milk, cream and fresh cremini mushrooms) and Reilly’s hand-written original recipe card even made it into the archives of the National Inventors Hall of Fame. Green bean casserole has endured over the ages, with 40 percent of Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup sales going towards making the dish, a spokesperson told Rao in 2015. “I’m very proud of this, and I was shocked when I realized how popular it had become.” ![]() “We all thought this is very nice, etc., and then when we got the feelings of the consumer, we were really kinda pleasantly shocked,” Reilly once said, according to Today’s Rao. Dorcas had created many recipes for the company (among them tuna noodle casserole and Sloppy Joe’s made from tomato soup), and was somewhat surprised that the green bean casserole proved to be such a hit. Originally called “Green Bean Bake,” Dorcas’ dish really took off when Campbell’s began printing the recipe on its mushroom soup cans, according to Karen Zraick of the New York Times. Though they continued to shoulder the responsibility of keeping the family fed, an ever-growing number of women were entering the workforce, fueling the demand for easy-to-make meals. The lifting of wartime rations on canned goods, coupled with innovations in canning and freezing that made packaged foods more accessible than ever, created a culture of convenience cooking. It was the perfect recipe for post-War America, when cheap, fuss-free cooking was all the rage. The prep time was minimal the dish worked well with frozen or canned green beans, and the fried onions were pre-packaged. According to Today’s Vidya Rao, she and her team initially toyed with adding celery salt and ham to the recipe, but ultimately settled on six simple, affordable ingredients that could be stirred together in a casserole dish and popped into the oven for 25 minutes. The recipe had to be based on ingredients that any home cook would have on hand, including Campbell’s mushroom soup and green beans.ĭorcas, who had earned a degree in home economics from Drexel University (known then as the Drexel Institute of Technology), got to tinkering. In 1955, Dorcas was working as a supervisor at the home economics department of a Campbell’s test kitchen in Camden, New Jersey, when she was tasked with creating a recipe for a feature that would appear in the Associated Press. The retro recipe, which has been appearing on American tables for more than 60 years, can be traced back to a woman named Dorcas Reilly, who died on October 15 at the age of 92, reports Timothy Bella of the Washington Post. This Thanksgiving, some 20 million Americans will tuck into green bean casserole, a culinary classic consisting of just six ingredients: a can of Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, green beans and crunchy fried onions.

This is similar to the positioning for a CT scan. The patient is then passed into the center of the magnet using the sliding table. The coils are positioned as close as possible to the part of the body being examined. The coils are plastic covered receivers made of copper wire that “listen” for the images that come from the patient’s body. The type of coil depends on the type of exam being done. The patient is usually placed on a sliding table and positioned within some “coils” which record the images. The exam requires that the patient be placed inside a large magnet. If a patient is mentally challenged or has difficulty communicating, it is always good to have a family member or caretaker with the patient who is familiar with their medical and surgical history for purposes of the MR Safety Screen which must be completed before the exam can be performed. If you have an implanted medical device and have been given a card or document which states that it is safe, or has contact information for the company that made the device, please bring that with you on the day of your exam.
