Video of TMC councillor's street brawl with another woman goes viral, she blames ‘reckless driving'
After a video of a street brawl involving two women, one being a TMC councillor, went viral, Panihati municipal authorities in North 24 Parganas said the incident would be investigated, and appropriate action would be taken. Local TMC councillor Srabanti Roy, however, said she would not file a police complaint against the other woman, citing her young age, and added that the brawl happened after the young woman's Scooty hit her bike. In the viral video, the councillor is seen slapping a young woman, who retaliates by grabbing Roy's hair and hitting her. As passersby watch, the two women fight, oblivious to attempts by locals to intervene. The two women were eventually stopped from fighting by traffic police. The incident reportedly took place on Monday near Panihati Mahotsavtala Ghat. Roy is councillor of Ward No. 26 in Panihati municipality. Roy on Wednesday told mediapersons that the confrontation began when the young woman's Scooty allegedly hit her bike. Roy claimed that she dismounted to protest and warn the young woman about 'reckless driving'. 'I consider it my duty as a public representative to warn her. But the young woman responded with abuse and took my bike keys. As I protested, I was attacked,' Roy said. 'A section of the media is making a big deal out of my slapping the young woman. But in the video, you can clearly see her actions,' she said. Roy said she was not keen to file a police complaint against the woman, as 'she is young, and I don't want any repercussions for her. However, the Opposition BJP used the incident to accuse the TMC of 'goondaism' and claimed that people were 'no more afraid of the ruling party'. 'This is not a mere scuffle between two women. The lady in white salwar kameez is an elected representative. She is the TMC councillor Srabanti Roy. Good to see that people are not bowing down under TMC's fear and rather standing up against this sort of goondaism,' BJP leader Keya Ghosh wrote on X.

Delhi court frames rioting and arson against 57 accused in 2020 case
New Delhi: A court has framed charges of rioting and arson against 57 accused people in a case related to the 2020 Delhi riots , observing that there was a "prima facie case" against them. The court of additional sessions judge Pulastya Pramachala in its April 15 order observed that the evidence on record prima facie showed that the accused were part of an unlawful assembly and had the common objective of going on the rampage and damaging properties. That's why they set a truck, Scooty and a godown, along with other articles, on fire, the judge said. The ASJ court was hearing the case against the 57 accused people, against whom Dayalpur police station had registered a case for committing the offences on the Main Wazirabad Road and near Chand Bagh on Feb 24, 2020. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Your Finger Shape Says a Lot About Your Personality, Read Now Tips and Tricks Undo The judge, noting their statements and complaints, said that there was a case against them for vandalism, arson and mischief by fire, besides a case for wrongful restraint and causing simple injury to a man named Om Prakash. The presence of all the accused in the mob of rioters has been established by different witnesses, the judge said. "I find that a prima facie case for offence punishable under IPC Sections 148 (rioting, armed with a deadly weapon), 435 (mischief by fire with intent to cause damage to an amount of 100 rupees or upwards), 436 (mischief by fire with intent to destroy house), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 341 (wrongful restraint) read with IPC Sections 149 (unlawful assembly) and 188 (disobedience to order promulgated by a public servant) against all the accused persons," ASJ Pramachala said. The judge, however, discharged the accused from the offence of criminal conspiracy, observing that from the statements of witnesses, the element of prior agreement among the accused persons and others could not be inferred. "From their statements, the scenario appears to be that a mob gathered near the Main Wazirabad Road and 25 Foota Road, Chand Bagh. The mob became violent subsequently and started indulging in riot, vandalism and arson," the judge said.

If You Live Somewhere Snowy, These 33 Problem-Solving Products Are Here To Help
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Shopping · Things that will help you stay so warm and dry, you'll forget it even snowed to begin with. 1. A set of snowball-making claws so you can make a massive cache of (adorably-shaped) snowballs in mere minutes without your hands going numb from the effort. Your opponent won't know what hit them (a dinosaur). Amazon Promising review:"These turned out to be a lot of fun. Makes perfect snowballs easily, quickly, and (as an adult) I could play without having to get my hands wet and cold, lol." — funfetti Get a set of four from Amazon for $12.78+ (available in two styles). 2. A Dead Sea ice melt designed to work immediately without corroding sidewalks or *most importantly* harming pets. The last thing anyone wants to see is their dog limping from stepping on salt. If only everyone used this stuff! The salt is 100% magnesium chloride, which the brand says won't irritate paws, and comes in rounded pellets, not spiky pieces, making it softer for pets to step on. Just remember to wipe their paws after they come inside (check out the ASPCA for more information). It also comes with a handy scooper. Harris is a small business that sells outdoor equipment. Promising review: "I purchased this because it was pet-friendly. This was my first time living with snow in 45 years, so I really didn't know what to look for. This product works VERY well. I am very happy with the results. I'm a senior citizen, so having the ability to get rid of the ice is important to me. Buy it — you will like it!" — Scooty Get a 15-pound bucket from Amazon for $39.99. 3. An electric snow blower you can push like a lawn mower, making it a great choice for people with limited mobility or just more snow than they can handle. The 13-amp motor can clear an impressive 580 pounds of snow per minute and rocket it up to 20 feet in the air. Your mean neighbor is in for a surprise. The "snow thrower" weighs under 26 pounds, making it more manageable to push around, and the adjustable chute lets you choose where you want the discarded snow to go. Promising review: "To be honest, I purchased this in 2017 and broke my leg shortly after, so it sat in my storage shed until I dug it out this Fall. It's awesome! I have two decks and two sidewalks to clear, and this gets it down in record time. Easy to maneuver on my uphill driveway, too! Lightweight but was able to clear the 6" of snow we received yesterday with no problems whatsoever! I highly recommend Snow Joe!" — Carol Get it from Amazon for $149.99. 4. Magnetic air vent deflectors to help increase efficiency and lower your heating bill by redirecting airflow towards the center of the room. Much better than just shooting it up the walls! Promising review: "Such a great and simple solution to help redirect A/C and heat. Super simple and easy to install. Universal fit makes it a cinch to work with any vents within the size range." — Heydaddy Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in a pack of four). 5. A jumbo pack of HotHands hand warmers you can keep tucked in your mittens or pockets to ensure your hands stay toasty warm no matter what. As someone who used to work outside, I can't overstate how effective these things are! If you've never used these before, you just remove them from the packaging, shake them, and enjoy 10 hours of warmth in under 15 minutes. Promising review:"I keep a continual supply of these in my vehicle for several reasons. I drop these in my pockets to warm my hands and body at hockey games, but honestly, any time I spend a great deal of time outside in the winter, I have them just in case. Once they heat up, you can put them in gloves, pockets, or anywhere you need to keep warm (I've put them in my knit hat before). Depending on the temps and where you place them, two to four hours of warmth can last." — Miss Hollis Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $15.99. 6. A double-handled shovel that's spring-assisted to give your shovel thrusts a little more oomph. Over 23,000 reviewers love the durability, adjustable handle, and wide blade that work together to make the whole chore easier and faster. Amazon Promising review: "The SnowJoe is really rounded out my Minnesota Snow Removal Arsenal. I replaced my conventional snow shovel with the SnowJoe and haven't had a sore back since! As a senior, any back-saving tool is welcome, and I feel like I'm throwing the snow as easily as I did as a younger buck!" — craig Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three colors). 7. A set of dog booties to protect their sensitive paws from snow, debris, and salt. Bonus: They're good against hot pavement in the summer! Promising review: "I loved these so much for my pup that I bought them for a friend's pup, too. Her dog has sensitive paws and they get hot and chapped from walking. She also chronically licks her paws raw. These booties have been a lifesaver already for her, keeping her paws healthy and deterring her from licking them!! 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend it! Plus, they always look so so cute in them." — Austin E. Get them from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in eight sizes and four colors). 8. Or, if your dog hates shoes, paw protection cream with vitamin E to keep paw pads nice and soft. It'll create a protective barrier that'll help keep their tootsies safe from the elements. Promising review:" My dog has extremely dry and cracked paws, so rough she gets stuck to the carpet. I've tried just about everything; all failed for various reasons. This product works. I was only able to do one paw the first time; she fought me like a demon. Next time, she let me do all four with little fuss; she likes the result. I followed everyone's lead and put it on right before walks. I've noticed that she wants to run and jump more and genuinely is happy with her feet. One downside is because it softens the pads, you have to be careful where they step; she picked up a thorny branch where, before the treatment, it wouldn't penetrate. Fair trade, in my opinion; now we can play and snuggle without her scratching me up. Bottom line: love it, the dog loves it, good value little goes a long ways. — Peggy Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 9. A cocoon-like pullover hoodie dress to wear on snowy days when you want to dress up but long for the comfort of your favorite sweatshirt. This thing hits the knees, meaning you can roll into a ball and hide inside it when needed. Promising review: "This dress is perfect for any occasion. I wore it out with sneakers to a ball game and got so many compliments. The material stretches, so it was easy to move in. I later paired it with some dressy flats to go to dinner, and everyone raved about how nice I looked. The material is so soft, and it's the right thickness to keep you warm on a chilly day but not too hot for a sunny day. I will order more." — KJ Get it from Amazon for $43.99 (available in women's sizes S–3XL and 14 colors). 10. A windshield ice cover because why waste time scraping ice when you don't have to? This waterproof protector holds onto your side mirrors and protects your glass from ice, snow, slush, rain, and whatever else the weather throws at you so you can stop scraping and start zooming off to brunch. It wraps around your wheels so it won't come off or let snow underneath! Promising review:"This is the best thing I could have ever bought! I bought one for myself, my mom, and my sister. New England just got slammed with a Nor'easter, and let me tell thing works! It only took about five minutes to put on my car, and like five seconds to get it off this morning. No snow or ice anywhere on the wiper well or windshield. I highly recommend this!" — Shelley Get it from Amazon for $26.95. 11. And a giant foam snow broom with a telescoping pole so you can easily uncover the rest of your car in record time. When you're done, it breaks apart for easy storage. Because it's foam, it's super lightweight and it won't scratch your paint, and the telescoping handle makes it easier to fit in the trunk. The opposite end has a built-in scraper if you end up needing to remove a thick layer of ice, too! Promising review:"Love this product! It's got a nice big 'sweeping' side that very easily moves large amounts of snow. I'm disabled and have bad joints and trouble lifting and stretching, and this item has been a lifesaver for me. It's soft; it won't scratch paint or cause damage. It's lightweight, so it's easy to maneuver. And you can telescope it out to make it longer. This allows my 5'6 self to fully clear my truck and even my camper on my own. Efficient, lightweight, easy to use. Can't go wrong." — mom4solidarity Get it on Amazon for $19.99. 12. Columbia hiking shoes beloved by outdoorsy folks all over the country thanks to their unmatched comfort and style. Their high-traction rubber sole and waterproof leather-and-suede upper are designed to hold up during intense hikes in all kinds of weather. And they're pretty cute, as far as hiking boots go. Reviewers swear these don't even have a break-in period, making them a great pick for that last-minute outdoorsy trip where hiking and rough terrain are on the docket. Note that it's recommended to go up a half size in these boots to accommodate thicker hiking socks. Promising review: "There's a reason that these hiking boots are the #1 best hiking boots on Amazon. I am amazed that they are so comfortable. This is day four that I've worn them, and my feet feel fantastic! I hiked four miles on the second day, and my feet were not tired, achy, or sore. I have been hiking for 30 years and have had numerous boots, but not a single pair has been this comfortable. The price is so worth it for what you get." — Granny B Get them from Amazon for $49+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and four colors). You can find a similar men's version here. 13. A pair of lightweight and durable escape tracks you'll be really glad to have the next time it blizzards. Quicksand might not be the ever-looming threat you'd thought it would be, but snow trapping you in the middle of nowhere can be just as perilous. The heavy-duty tracks are built to be indestructible (they can survive temps as low as 5 degrees F and as high as 212 degrees F) and work in sand, mud, and snow. Promising review:"I got my truck stuck in some very deep snow last week (Montana, where there's enough snow in early November to get you stranded). Nothing was working to get me out and I had to abandon the truck for a few days to figure out my next move, which likely was to pay for a wrecker to come out and see what they could do. I wasn't looking forward to that, as I was about 60 miles from the nearest town, and there was really no way to get any type of tow truck in the area. First thing I did when I got home was to order a set of these. Well, they worked. I dug out some of the snow/ice that kept the truck from moving, put these mats under the front tires and in all of about five seconds, I was out. No damage to the mats, no damage to the truck, and I'm sure I saved a ton of towing money by buying these. They will have a home in my truck from here on out." — Meir Get them from Amazon for $129.95+ (available in four colors and four styles). 14. An insulated, self-adhesive weatherproofing strip to stick to your door to ensure your precious warm air stays put. Once you see your heating bill, you'll know this thing pays for itself. It's also great for soundproofing, in case you also wanna block out the sound of howling wind. It's also great for soundproofing your room/apartment! Promising review:"Very strong adhesive holds in place. Very good draft/leak stopping. My door faces the breezeway, and it tends to seep into the cracks and blows hot or cold air along the floor, making it awful in the winter. This stopped that as soon as I put it on." — AYonko Get it from Amazon for $8.57 (available in four colors). 15. Or an easy-to-use insulator kit you can install yourself with just a hair dryer. The shrink film will cling to your old, drafty windows to keep heat in and looks a heck of a lot better than, say, duct-taping it. Each kit comes with enough clear film to insulate five or 10 standard windows. To apply it, you first attach the included double-sided tape to your window frame, measure your window and cut the film to size, press it onto the tape, and then shrink it with a blow-dryer so it adheres to your window. Some reviewers say they improved the process by working out bubbles with a credit card as they went. Promising review: "This product kept my apartment warm and toasty last winter! I live in an older (but charming) apartment and the windows are not only large, they're not updated to be efficient. There was draft pretty much on all the windows in the apartment so the heater just keeps kicking in to warm the place. Of course, this means an enormous heating bill. Last winter, my husband decided to try this product. We noticed the difference right away on the first night we had it installed! No more drafts and the apartment stayed pretty warm. We noticed a huge drop on our heating bill (almost $50/mo compared to the previous year)." — D Dacera Get them from Amazon for $18.94+ (in sets of five or 10). 16. An electric-heated, snow-melting stair mat to ensure you don't slip on the icy stairs on your way to grab your shovel. Just plug it in, lay it wherever needed, and watch it melt about two inches of snow per hour. They're splurgy, but I'd honestly pay any amount of money to avoid shoveling. Amazon Each mat is weatherproof, slip-proof, and comes with a two-year warranty. Grab a weather-proof extension cord while you're at it! Promising review: "This works GREAT! Bought this for my 70-year-old mother for Christmas to get to her morning paper. Makes her much more confident about not slipping. Expensive, but for an older person, it gives them peace of mind for sure!" — Cheryl Get it from Amazon for $99.95 and the power cord for $49.95. 17. A heated water bowl so your husky can stay hydrated while they frolic in the snow for — *checks watch* — OK, all day. It's also a nice watering hole for thirsty visitors. Promising review: "I got the bowl for the squirrels and birds who visit my patio. The bowl has been out overnight for several nights now in freezing temperatures. As advertised, the water does not freeze. It was snowing today. In the picture, you can see one of the many squirrels who visit the patio, stopping by for a drink. A friend asked if the water gets warm. It does not." — MHHS Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in four sizes). 18. Handknit lamb's wool and acrylic mittens to keep your hands nice and toasty warm in case they need to leave the warm embrace of your coat pockets. And the cute pattern is sure to warm your heart as well! Ornute / Etsy Ornute is a small business based in Minneapolis that sells cozy handmade fashion accessories and home decor. Promising review:"These were so well made! My daughter needed mittens that were warm during the cold walks on campus. These made me think of the mittens my grandma used to make me every year. Thank you!" — kate405 Get it from Ornute on Etsy for $56.99+ (available in a variety of colors). 19. An animal inner tube specially made for sledding down snowy hills. Since they can be packed down to a small size, they're a lot easier to store in the warmer months. And they're just fun! Do you see their gnarly snow goggles painted on? They're ready to shred. Promising review: "We bought this because our kids love dragons. It looks just like it was pictured. We were pleasantly surprised that it has held up to multiple trips sledding so far this year. We've had no trouble inflating and deflating it, and it has held up well even with adults using it. It's not the fastest way down the hill, but it goes about as fast as the other snow tubes that we own." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in five styles). 20. A pair of snuggly Ugg ankle boots for when you want the comfort and warmth of a classic Ugg but without the big cumbersome shape. Thanks to the wool lining, your feet won't go numb halfway through shoveling. Pick up some waterproofing spray so you can wear them in slushy weather! Promising review: "So cute. So comfortable. True to size. Love them. Easy to take on and off. I have worn them a few times, even dressed down with some sweatpants and dressed up with some jeans and a cute shirt. If you are on the fence, do it. They are pricy but def worth it. You get what you pay for." — Samantha Get it from Amazon for $139.95 (available in women's sizes 5–12 and 10 colors). 21. A bubble tent not unlike the kind you might find at expensive rooftop bars. Set one up in your backyard, and you can enjoy a romantic evening out of the house — but without cold, slush, or an eye-watering bar tab. This splurge-worthy tent pops up automatically thanks to springy fiberglass ribs. When you're done, it folds into a traveling case for later. Promising review:"This was easy to assemble and is likely even easier with two people. I love going out in the woods to have a camping/picnic date or party with friends. It's resistant to the wind and water-resistant. When the weather is cold, it's cozy and warm inside this tent. It maintains a good temperature (review image above, left)." — jimeamezcua Get it from Amazon for $249.59+ (available in four sizes). 22. An oversized scarf designed to be a convincing stand in for cashmere. It's ultra soft and so big that you can tie it into a balaclava when you need some extra protection from the elements. Amazon Promising review: "Would 100% buy again. The SOFTEST material ever. And it is oversized to perfection. It looks just like the picture, which I was skeptical lol. I love it. I need another color." — Heather Get it from Amazon for $10.79+ (available in 26 colors). 23. A suctioned drain cover so you can fill your tub all the way to the tippy top. You need all the warm water you can get — it's cold out there! Amazon, SlipX Solutions is a small business that specializes in safety-oriented shower and bath accessories. Promising review:"Can I give this thing 10 gold stars? I have a four-foot bathtub (so small it should be illegal), so I used to bring a towel in the tub to cover myself just to keep warm because the water was so shallow. I've used this drain cover three times, and now I literally bask in my Epsom salt baths. The silence is wonderful; I used to seethe at hearing the precious bath water drip-drop down the overflow drain. Buy it, hands down, a peace preserver." — M. Smith Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in nine colors). 24. A reversible windproof plaid jacket to give your dog a "we vacation in Europe" type of vibe. The fleece lining and water-repellant outer layer will ensure your dog stays warm, even in typically dreary English weather. Promising review:"This is a great option as a coat. The fact that it's reversible is great! My dog has long fur and seldom gets cold, but it is a pain to dry him off after going outside when it's wet. The plaid side is cute for snowy days and the black, water-resistant side is excellent for rain or sleet. The high neck helps add additional protection. There is a large flap that goes under the tummy to protect tummy fur from getting wet. Both sides of the coat and one side of the neck have Velcro closures so it is very easy to put on and take off quickly. And the Velcro hasn't gotten full of fur or stuck to his fur at all. The leg and neck openings are perfect." — CrystalM Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 13 styles). 25. A pack of thick, patterned socks that will keep your feet warm without being so bulky they don't fit in your snow boots. Over 14,000 5-star reviewers love these socks thanks to their vibrant colors, durability, and overall cuteness. Promising review:"I've had these socks since 2019, and they're still looking great! They're warm, and the colors match so many outfits. I'd buy them again, but I haven't needed to. 😎" — Caryn Get a pack of five from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 16 styles). 26. A heated massage cushion for anyone who reeeally wishes they had a heated carseat option. Instead of shelling out for a new car, let this addition keep you warm and relaxed as you brave the treacherous route to work. It has six vibrating massage motors, four intensity settings, an optional heat setting, and an auto shut-off feature. This portable seat cushion comes with a wall adapter for use at home as well! Be sure to grab an auto adapter so you can use it in the car during the winter months. Promising review: "I've been using this for a few days and LOVE it! I've never had a back massager that ACTUALLY vibrated with enough intensity to actually feel like I was getting a real massage. There are several different areas that this cushion conforms to and kneads and you can choose whether it alternates between them all or if you just want one or a few specific areas for it to concentrate on. You can control the intensity, whether it heats up or not, and it's all easily controlled by the built-in remote that's got its own innocuous home to the side for it to rest in, so it's not just hanging out in space. I've put this up both at my work desk chair and then changed it to my car to get better use of it. It's great to de-stress after a long day while sitting in traffic, and the heated seat will help out with these cold winter months." — Redd Summers Get it from Amazon for $56.98+ (available in two colors). 27. A personal heater so you can stay warm even when the rest of your home or office is a tundra. This 200-watt heater is small, quiet, and comes with overheat protection, so it's perfect for your desk or other small spaces. Promising review:"I bought this to put on my desk to warm my right hand while using my mouse. It is always ice cold when I leave work each day due to the cold blasting A/C vent above my desk. To accomplish reaching my hand I need to lay the heater on its side. This means it has no tilt detection to turn off, which is fine because the outside housing of this heater never gets hot or even warm to the touch. If you stand it up it can easily warm your front side at 1-2 feet away. Keep in mind I'm using this in an office area that is already heated/cooled to around 68F. I'd say if you're using this in an extremely cold environment (<50F), it would probably not do much to warm you up. With that being said, this is an ideal small heater to sit on a desk in an already warmed area." — Dan S. Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in four colors and model types). 28. A pair of sheepskin insole inserts to add a snuggle factor to your slippers — or whatever shoes you use for your quick sprint outside for the mail. As a bonus, the wool offers some extra cushioning and support. Promising review:"Bought these as a refresher for my son's slippers. I know they won't last forever. Neither did the original liners from the slippers themselves. They all flatten out, hence purchasing another set now. These were easy to trim up to fit inside something that is now the shape of his foot. They are a little expensive but not so much as buying a whole new set of slippers, so I find it an acceptable price." — Heather Lunar Get them from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in women's sizes 6–12 and men's sizes 8–14). 29. A microchip pet door so your dog can come and go without bringing home any unexpected friends looking to get out of the cold. Y'know, like a raccoon or your neighbor's cat who bites. Amazon The door scans on entry only, so any animal can scurry outside. The scanner works with nine Avid Secure, 10 FDXA, and 15 FDXB digit microchip numbers and can learn up to 32 identities. Promising review:"We've had several cat doors over the years, and this is by far the very best. This is a SUPERIOR, WONDERFUL, BRILLIANTLY DESIGNED PET DOOR! We love it, and so do our cats. We have three cats and live in a wooded area with lots of raccoons. Until we bought this pet door, there weren't any good solutions for our raccoon problem. This pet door does EXACTLY what the company says it does and more. Our cats are now safe from predators and can jump into the house anytime they want. When it rains, they can pop right in. When they want to go out, they can go out immediately. THANKS TO THE BRILLIANT PERSON WHO INVENTED THIS DOOR! And to the brainy crew of developers who built it." — Literary Fiction Reader Get it from Amazon for $134. 30. A baby wipe warmer that'll really come in handy on those blizzardy evenings because there's nothing your baby will hate more than a cold wipe shocking them awake in the middle of the night. The holder comes with a night-light (with a 10-minute auto shut-off) and holds up to 100 wipes at a time. Promising review:"So many people will tell you this isn't necessary. Just get it! My son would scream during diaper changes, especially at night. After getting this, they go much smoother! It's quick and easy to open while changing and fits right on top of the changing table! Not all wipes are super warm, but definitely better than when sitting out." — Get it from Amazon for $29.68. 31. A waterproof shoe tray to contain the tracked-in mud, dirt, and snow this winter. Now all you have to do is pray your family members remember to use it. Promising review: "This rubber shoe mat is a great compact, lightweight option to keep the house tidy. We bought this for our little Airbnb unit that we own and it's been a great addition to the entryway. Easy to clean!" — AKara Get it from Amazon for $11.87. 33. Or a wool blend knit hood if you're looking for a little more mystique in your winter attire. There's even a drawstring to adjust when the wind starts up. And when the hood is down, it works as a neck gaiter, too. Promising review: "I love this!!! I am from Georgia and was planning a trip to Indiana. I am not used to the cold weather. I hate to be cold. One thing on our agenda was ice skating, and I was worried about staying warm on the ice. I do not like hats on my head. This was so convenient. It worked as a scarf and hat. It was warm. It was soft. It did not cause static, either. And it looks good on." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $17 (available in 11 colors).
