Questions & Answers
dCOR design Christable Round Folding Bistro Table
Would not buy it again
Barbara from Sanibel, FL– Verified Buyer
Was hard to put together and continued to be wobbly!
Good Quality Round Table
Steven from WA– Verified Buyer
This is a good quality table. The assembly was easy. The only issue I had is I bought stools that were a little too tall. I wish you could adjust the table height.
Love the look
Mike from Seaside, CA– Verified Buyer
Soda shop style. Fold feature good if outdoors so water doesn't accumulate. Otherwise useless
Not really made for outdoor use / exposure to the elements
Tara from Oklahoma City, OK– Verified Buyer
The table looks great and is functional for small spaces, such as a balcony. Unfortunately, the bottom of the tabletop has a cardboard backing that will not old up to rain. We will remove the backing altogether.
Our own private sidewalk cafe
Robin from Towson, MD– Verified Buyer
This is just like a table you'd find at a sidewalk cafe. Solidly built, looks cool and modern. We have it on a tiny porch off our kitchen and we eat at it every chance we get.
Bistro table
Sherry from Capitola, CA– Verified Buyer
Looks as advertised, but not very sturdy, wobbly, difficult to balance well.
Shawn from Dana Point, CA– Verified Buyer– Top 100 Reviewer
I purchased 2, the ability to fold and store is perfect. When I entertain I have additional table seating and when the guests leave I clean and put away until my next BBQ
bistro table
Bonnie from Miami, FL– Verified Buyer
This table is perfect for our condo balcony - love the size and the clean modern lines. We are enjoying eating outside with an amazing view.
love my table
paula from milford, MI– Verified Buyer
I bought this table for my vintage camper and it is perfect. It is made very well and folds up nicely at night so I can pull out the sofas into a bed in the camper. It is just the right size and I love the retro look of it to go with my 1972 Shasta trailer. Very glad that I found it.
Nice Table
Brian from Sacramento, CA– Verified Buyer
I bought this table because of it's ability to fold up and be tucked away when I'm not using it. It's really light but well made, and looks exactly as it appears on the site (you've also seen these tables around at cafes as a few days after it arrived, I saw a coffee shop that had a whole bunch of them). Recommended.

Follow a drop of water
Photo courtesy trodel via FlickrIn this ongoing series of features, slideshows, and discussions, we explore the complicated and often dramatic relationship between urban rivers and the people who defend and rely on them. Where does our water come from? What kind of convoluted journey does it make on its way to our taps? How do we think about its critical role in building a sustainable urban future?
We start with the Colorado, then head to New Jersey's Passaic, taking a hard look at how we've poisoned it. But that's just the beginning. Come back each week for a new installment of our travels down some of America's most important rivers.
Stories in this series:
Down the Colorado
As a native Coloradan, photographer Peter McBride always wondered how long it took irrigation water from his family's cattle ranch to reach the Colorado River and ultimately the sea. That question sent McBride (with author Jonathon Waterman) on a two-year journey to follow the water. He photographed the Colorado, mostly from the air, in an effort to document where the river's water actually goes. The results will appear in the book The Colorado River: Flowing Through Conflict (Westcliffe Publishers), due out in September. This sneak preview of McBride's work marks the launch of our "Follow a drop of water" series, …
From paradise to Superfund, afloat on New Jersey's Passaic River
For the first 18 years of my life I lived along the final 17-mile stretch of the Passaic River. That's the dirty, ugly part of the river that passes through the most crowded, industrialized part of the United States. The Passaic forms the western border of my home town: North Arlington, New Jersey, a tiny borough just a few miles north of the river's mouth in Newark. Our house sat on a steep slope above the river. In the winter, when the oak and maple trees were all bare, I could see the water from our front porch. Sometimes in …
How we poisoned the Passaic
In June 1983, Newark's close knit Ironbound community was overrun by investigators in Hazmat suits after EPA officials found dioxin at the Diamond Alkali chemical plant site.Photo: wirednewyork.comOn the morning of June 2, 1983, the governor of New Jersey declared a state of emergency. Speaking at a press conference in his Trenton office, then Governor Thomas Kean told reporters that the state's Department of Environmental Protection had detected disturbingly high levels of dioxin at the former Diamond Alkali chemical plant at 80 Lister Avenue in Newark's Ironbound neighborhood. With a three-page executive order, he shut down the Newark Farmer's Market, …
"Follow a Drop of Water" photo contest winners
Taunton River in Bridgewater, Mass.Photo: Corrie Collin Water covers 70 percent of the Earth's surface, but chances are there's a body of water close to home that's also close to your heart — a fjord that strikes your fancy, a beautiful bayou, or a river that gives you shivers. Grist asked our Facebook fans to send in photos of their favorite watering holes, be they bays or brooks. We received more than 40 submissions. Wow! Such lovely pictures! Invite us on your next hike/swim/canoe trip, OK? Our favorite photo — and winner of Grist's "Follow a Drop of Water" photo …
Passaic riverkeeper sees signs of hope despite the slow pace of cleanup
Andy Willner, activist and advocate of the Passaic.Photo courtesy of al-ICE g via FlickrOn Jan. 2, 1990, a leaking pipeline at Bayonne, New Jersey's Exxon Bayway oil refinery sent 567,000 gallons of heating fuel into the surrounding waterways and marsh. Andy Willner volunteered to help the affected wildlife. He wound up collecting a truckload of dead Canvasback ducks and driving them straight to the refinery. When a worker there tried to shoo him away, Willner threatened to drive the oily carcasses across the Hudson to the door of The New York Times. The worker acquiesced. An activist was born. Not …
Cleanup efforts bring life back to Grand Calumet River
Grand Calumet River near Gary AirportLeslie DorworthThe first time I saw the Grand Calumet River, I was driving down the Indiana Toll Road. It was 1996, and I had just arrived in northwest Indiana from North Carolina to take a new job as an aquatic ecology extension specialist with the Illinois-Indiana Sea Grant Program. All around me I could see steel mills and processing plants, and the Grand Calumet, meandering slowly through this highly industrialized landscape like a rare natural jewel. There were herons, egrets, and other birds wading along the banks, and abundant, luscious greenery such as cattails and …
How a river went from diversity to dumpsite
A sign near the Cal Sag channel, part of the Calumet River System, warns against "any human body contact."Photo courtesy Tom Gill via FlickrThe Grand Calumet River is about 13 miles long and flows through one of the most industrialized areas in the United States. At one time, the river's branches and tributaries flowed throughout northwest Indiana and supported globally unique fish and wildlife. Today, thanks to being moved and manipulated by humans over the years, the Calumet river system is one of the smallest watersheds in the region, and there are stretches of river that support nothing but sludge …
Running dry on the Colorado [EXCERPT]
Author Jonathan Waterman followed the Colorado River from its headwaters in Rocky Mountain National Park to where it trickles away in the Mexican desert. Here is the first of two excerpts from his book, Running Dry.
Mighty Colorado River dribbles through Mexico [EXCERPT]
In his effort to paddle the entire length of the Colorado River, author Jonathan Waterman had to walk the last 60 miles of delta and infected his feet in the polluted remains of the drying river. Here is the second of two excerpts from Waterman's book, Running Dry.

Downloading music is the same thing I used to do: I used to record all the songs in tapes, the hits, the songs I liked from the radio. I don't care. I hate seeing all those big rock stars complaining. At least they're paying attention to your music, moron, and they're paying attention to you, you know? You should appreciate that, fuck. Why are you complaining? You have 5 fucking big houses, so shut up.

Buying a boat should include tools. Not because a boat isn't built well, but because anything can happen on the water.
A while back while riding in an unnamed Elite Series pro's boat for practice for the Bassmaster Classic, we needed some tools for a minor repair.
"They are in the back compartment," he said.
While digging in an old tackle box in that compartment, I found a rusted mess of "tools" that were welded together, gummed up and in a condition that even Royal Purple Maxfilm couldn't repair. They were sitting in a puddle of water in the bottom of the box. The pliers we needed were in such bad shape that both of us pulling on either handle couldn't open them.
It was right then I made a commitment to build a Plano Dry box with the proper tools and to keep them in a dry compartment. I have them in both my little boat and my big boat and will not leave the dock without them.
There are 5 tools that are mandatory in that kit.
1. An adjustable wrench – We call them Crescent wrenches here in the Midwest, and it's a tool that can be used on a variety of sizes of nuts and bolts. They can be used to both tighten and loosen depending on the need and a good one should have tight adjustments to keep from slipping.
2. A multi-bit screwdriver or cordless screwdriver – There are all sorts of screwdrivers that feature replaceable bits to give you a phillips head, flat head or even allen or star head for tightenting loose screws, removing equipment, replacing broken equipment and more. We found that a handy battery powered screwdriver that accepts other bits is invaluable at times on the water.
3. A pair of needle nose pliers – multiple sets of these pliers should be on every boat. They can be used to cut and repair wire, bend a hook, tighten or loosen a part or get into a tight space to fix something. Not to mention they are handy for unhooking fish.
4. A set of Allen wrenches – These are handy all over the boat and include both regular Allen sizes and star shapes used on many bass boats today. Many people call these torques. Both sets should be included.
5. A pair of cutters – These should be of the heavy duty variety and can be used to crimp as well. I have a set that cut and crimp and they too have rubberized handles. They are handy for tightening connections, repairing them and also great for cutting errant hooks and wires that could be tangled in you or the boat prop. I have seen crab traps, fence, rope, old line and other wire get tangled in a prop and they work perfectly to remove it.
Take the time, build the kit and throw in some electrical tape, fuses and connectors too. Use one of the variety of Plano waterproof boxes to store it all. They fit nicely in the boat and don't leak.
Pingback: What to put in toolbox for boat??
Don't forget duct tape and electrical tape!!!
A small set of primary wire as well spark plug socket and ratchet I also carry a small socket assortment but I'm paranoid
There is no way the average person will ever remember to keep the cordless screwdriver charged!
Well, you should get one that has a 12v charger should you need to charge it you could use you're own boat's battery!
I agree with everything but the cordless screwdriver. Manual is the way to go there…cordless lack torque on tough screws and if the battery is dead you out if luck. Good snap-on ratcheting will hold bits in handle too.
One other thing that not many people think of BUT SHOULD HAVE on their boat is a 12v solar powered battery tender/charger, trust me, It will be extremely useful at times.. There are lots of options on these, but one with at least 50W that preferably has a charging control to avoid overcharging is the way to!
Especially with a older boat, I agree with Mike about the cordless.

Bridget Jones's little diary has leaped to the big screen at a star-studded premiere in London's West End. The film's starsRenee Zellweger, Hugh Grant and Colin Firthwere all there on Wednesday, as was Helen Fielding, who first dreamed up the character of the neurotic Bridget.
Halliwell turned heads at the premiere of Bridget Jones's Diary with a
daring backless dress. Halliwell arrived in a backless, one shoulder Julien
MacDonald creation and wandered around greeting fans outside the Empire
cinema before handing over a spare ticket. Inside the cinema, Halliwellwho
provides the song It's Raining Men for the soundtrackembraced
Zellweger and handed over a handmade bracelet. The actress looked
delighted with the beaded bangle, which she showed off and was inscribed
with the words "so hip it hurts".
Zellweger also won admiring glances as she showed off how she had regained her figure after losing the 20lbs she gained for the film in a revealing black crocheted dress.

York premiere
(The Times, by Joanna Coles, April 4, 2001)
Renee Zellweger and Hugh Grant, Dominic West, Alan Cumming, Frances McDormand, Donald Trump, Tara Fitzgerald, the singer Moby and the veteran television star, Barbara Walters, were among the British and American celebrities who gathered at the Zeigfield Theatre in New York on Monday night to celebrate the premiere of Bridget Joness Diary. Miss Zellweger, the American actress who was granted the role of the famous British singleton, only after she agreed to put on 20lbs, stunned the audience not only with her impeccable London accent, but also with her dramatic weight loss.
Now skinny as a starlings rib, and wearing a tiny black suit by the New York designer Marc Jacobs, it was clear she had lost at least a stone more than she had put on, giving Calista Flockhart, the tiny star of Ally McBeal, a run for her money as Americas most anorexic actress.
I miss London, I really do, I really do! I miss the Met Bar, she said, adding that working incognito for an English publishing company as part of her research for the role, and then making the film with Mr Grant and their co-star, Colin Firth, was a wonderful experience.
It was unique, extraordinary, every day brought new opportunities, she said.
Mr Firth was unable to attend because his wife is expecting a baby this week. Sporting a spikey new haircut, Mr Grant seemed peevish and refused to speak to the British press. Asked briefly if he enjoyed playing the bad guy as a change from his recent role in Notting Hill, he snapped: Ive played the bad guy before you know. It was a welcome return.
The film was co-written by Helen Fielding, Bridget Jones creator, who arrived at the theatre with her American boyfriend Kevin Curran, a writer for The Simpsons. Asked if he had managed to woo the real-life Bridget Jones, he said sheepishly: I guess you could say that, shes a wonderful woman.
The two now live together in Los Angeles. Ms Fielding, who was dressed in a blue suit by the British designer Ghost, and wearing a diamond necklace by Asprey, said it was important to her that Ms Zellweger had been prepared to put on weight for the part.
Another co-writer was Richard Curtis, creator of the Black Adder series and Four Weddings and a Funeral. He said he was relieved he had not had to disinfect his feet before arriving in the United States, but he was worried about not being able to take food back to London with him. Looking forward to further projects, he added he was thinking of creating a new Black Adder series with Rowan Atkinson playing a college professor who hates students.
Eric Fellner, one of the films producers from the British company Working Title, pointed out that if the film is a reasonable success it will mean Mr Curtis last four films, which include the blockbuster Notting Hill, will have a combined gross of more than $1 billion.
The film was directed by Sharon Maguire, a BBC documentary maker who was the real-life inspiration behind Shazza, Bridgets best friend. Ms Fielding always promised that if the book was ever made into a film, then her friend would direct it. The movie also includes several cameos of Ms Fieldings friends including the authors Salman Rushdie, Julian Barnes and Sebastian Faulkes. Lord Archer also makes a brief if unflattering appearance.
After the screening Barbara Walters, a famous singleton herself, said she loved the film. Renee was adorable, she said.
I shall give it a good review, said Jonathan Foreman, film critic for the New York Post. He added that he liked Mr Curtis eye for social detail though he feared an American audience might miss the subtlety. My only worry is that the film has such a thick heroine. No American film would dare to insult its target audience like that.

Rosalind Russell as Auntie Mame, with the author of the famous book of the same title, Patrick Dennis.
In my mind Rosalind Russell always was and always will be Auntie Mame. It wasn't just the one role. It was a quality she projected in all her films. She played the madcap lady with a finesse that, in a funny sort of way, gave her more control than the dames who played it tough.
I contacted her through her producer husband, Freddie Brisson, who told me she loved the campaign and would gladly pose for it. At the time, she'd been taking medication for an arthritic condition and it had somewhat bloated her face, though not her trim figure.
Avedon arranged the shooting in Los Angeles. I was not able to attend, so Dick handled everything. Russell wore white satin Norell pajamas, and Avedon made a sort of blanket of the fur and had her kick it into the air. It was a perfect shot-the quintessential Mame.
I eventually did meet Rosalind Russell at one of the 'legendary lady' evenings produced by John Springer. She was being honored at a party at the Rainbow Room in New York, to which I escorted Joan Crawford. Though Miss Russell was in ill health at the time, she never let on. The lady had great style.
-Peter Rogers
L-R bottom row:Ingrid Bergman, Marlene Dietrich, (???) someone I should recognize but don't
R-L top row: Mah Boo Stanwyck (!!!), ?? someone I should recognize but don't, Rosalind Russell
And the middle on the top row MAY be Susan Hayward. That would be my guess.
Isn't that Joan there across the way too?! And maybe Shirley Temple next to her? Also I'm no expert but is that ~possibly Loretta Young behind the possible Susan Hayward? lol I love photos like this! XD
I love this photo and all the speculation into who the others are. I love that if that is Joanie, she is the only woman in a fur coat. Makes me laugh. Anyone know where this photo was taken? A polo match?
Correct me if i'm wrong but i think it goes like this
first row: ingrid bergman, marlene dietrich, irene dunne.
second row: rosalind russell, jean arthur, barbara stanwyck and those badass sunglasses, and Loretta Young in the back.
in the back: i'm quite possitive that's ginger rogers and then joan crawford and next to joan it's Shirley.
I don't think that that is Jean Arthur in the second row, but I agree with the rest.

I've been working for a few months now on a hobby project, WellPilot, with the goal of turning complex health data into simple guidance for optimal wellbeing. (Probably need to simplify that statement, huh?)
For this hobby, I keep an eye out for useful data sources that can help make WellPilot more accurate and more useful. So I was excited when I read about openFDA, the US Food and Drug Administration's new initiative to make their data more open and accessible.
The first dataset they've launched is for adverse events. An adverse event is, for the most part, a negative side effect. Healthcare professionals and manufacturers report these to the FDA for drugs, supplements and other things people tend to put in their body.
This reporting is important because many side effects aren't discovered until a large number of patients start using a marketed product. While clinical trials are supposed to be representative of a population taking a drug, they are often too small to capture every meaningful permutation of biology (think, for example, about how genetic variations affect drug metabolism) and too short to fully understand the long-term effects. This is why post-marketing databases such as the FDA's adverse events database are so important.
Unfortunately, such databases haven't been easy to tap, especially for hobbyist programmers like me.
With openFDA, that's all changed. Through a simple application programming interface (API)—basically, enabling online requests that return data in machine-usable format—the FDA has made adverse event information easily accessible.
WellPilot now incorporates this information in three ways:
- A list of all side effects* for treatments we've analyzed; see all side effects here
- A list of side effects associated with treatments (example here: caffeine), organized in descending order of FDA reports
- A list of all treatments associated with side effects (example here: nausea), organized in descending order of FDA reports
Some people might wonder why this is useful. After all, many websites offer side effect information—for example, consumer health sites such as WebMD. However, these are often not comprehensive or entirely up to date. For example, the official labels for prescription drugs are based off clinical trials, with limitations noted above. WellPilot side effect data is regularly refreshed based on reports to the FDA.
This is just a start of how WellPilot might use adverse event data—not to mention other data openFDA should have in future. For example, some ideas I'm considering:
- Allowing people to track treatments they're taking to see of which side effects they're most at risk overall
- Allowing people to see both how effective a treatment is for a condition, as well as how severe the side effects might be
- Making analysis of condition-treatment relationships smarter by informing the analysis algorithm of what's a likely side effect (for example, with adverse event data, the algorithm would be more likely to flag "nausea" as a side effect of chemotherapy treatment rather than something chemotherapy treats)
- Evaluating side effect risks of treatments for specific conditions (whereas we currently just evaluate it for treatments overall)
If you have any thoughts, feel free to comment here or reach out to me on Twitter.
* Note: We call them "side effects" on WellPilot rather than "adverse events" because the former is a more consumer-friendly term. In reality, however, some adverse events are not really side effects. They include things like drugs not working at all, or a method of administration not working as intended. But, for the most part, I think the label works, and it's what consumers are most familiar with.
