To attain the most beautiful skin, experts recommend drinking enough water by consuming the recommended 8 glasses of water a day, and more for those with special health issues, who spend lots of time in the sun or who engage in strenuous exercise or activity. Being well hydrated improves the elasticity of skin, making it look and feel beautiful.
Wearing sunscreen is another critical aspect of maintaining the beauty and health of skin. Year round sunscreen or a make-up containing sunscreen, should be applied on the face. In the summer, be sure to reapply every two hours. Many make-up lines offer sunscreen in the form of light powders, which are easy to apply, not greasy or smelly, and do a great job of protecting skin. When at the pool, or outdoors, be sure to apply sunscreen all over exposed skin and to reapply often. It is recommended to stay in the shade between the hours of ten and two, thus avoiding direct contact with bright mid-day sun.
You are what you eat, and in the case of your skin, this saying holds some truth. Foods rich in anti-oxidants, low in fat, and high in Vitamin C suggest healthier skin.
Other lifestyle choices affect the health of skin as well. Smoking has been shown to increase wrinkles by reducing the size of blood vessels carrying blood to the surface of the skin. To simply stop smoking is an enormous help to the health of skin. Regular exercise is another lifestyle choice that positively impacts the health of skin, by boosting blood circulation and increasing oxygen capacity.
Skin is the largest organ in the human body and the only organ on the outside of the body. As a result it deserves special consideration and attention. The Mayo Clinic recommends that skin be treated as gently as possible, cleaned with gentle products, patted dry and carefully moisturized. The estheticians at the Aspen Spa recommend, in addition to daily cleansing and moisturizing, a regular facial, every four to six weeks, or at the very least every season in addition to careful exfoliation. Facials are a method of deep cleaning the skin. Tools utilized by estheticians can diminish signs of aging, eliminate fine lines and stimulate the skin on a cellular level. Exfoliation through scrubs or masks removes old, dead skin, leaving bright, new skin exposed. However these treatments are not limited to the face. At the Aspen Club and Spa, skin treatments are for the entire body.
Finally, an important aspect to the health and beauty of skin is managing stress. To look and feel young, individuals must relax. Many of the body treatments at the Aspen Spa focus on cleaning and treating skin, but also ridding the body of toxins, stress and rebalancing the mind and body.
Summer is the time to look and feel your best; head on down to the Aspen Club and Spa to schedule your facial or body therapy today and start summer with a warm, beautiful glow!

Previous winners table?[edit]
Anyone have a better idea as to how to include this information in the article? Having a table that long just looks bad... though there doesn't seem to be much of a better way to do it. Perhaps only feature previous winners from the past ten [or so] years? Or a new article purely for the previous winners list, so that omitting results from years past would be okay and in good taste?

I go along and chuck a load of cites in to an article, and then i read thread and may i have done wrong? lol ? 126.96.36.199 02:06, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- No you haven't... If anything, much of the actual names have been cobbled together from various web sources (mostly the Google cache in my case because it showed enough of the information to fit it together). FIM themselves only list the surnames, but if you search for the date, the winning team and potentially the track, many names become clear. Where physical sources have been used (such as Stefan Everts' biography, they are referenced appropriately). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 19:38, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- What I'm getting at is on said thread, Mr Meyer (website owner and article author) himself (MXgeoff) admits he "lifted" the first paragraphs from this page, so when i (me not signed in - 160.5 etc) read his article, and think, I'll start citing the MXDN article, have a created some sort of reference loop/paradox ??? I mean i know a lot about MX, but i can't cite myself as having read umpteen MX mags, websites, etc for umpteen years as a source ;) - panic not, its not the end of the world ;) Pickle 03:35, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

With Raleigh because of no arena they played in Greensboro where there was one. Greenboro is about 75 miles away from the Raleigh/Durham metro area. The arena there has been a frequent home of the ACC basketball tournament in March.
What they did in Carolina because it was using state dollars was to build the Arena on the NC State campus since they had just built an Arena for UNC it was NC States turn. The arena is used for NC State baseketball and other sports. It also uses the same lots as the NC State footbal stadium.
The islanders going to Brooklyn to play is an utter farcs. The Arena would be lowest capacity by far in the NHL. the team will lose alot more money than if they moved to some other city.
As for Phoenix....
The Arena is next to the football stadium used by the Arizona Cardinals (hosted past super bowls and will again in 2015)...If the product is good and the people in the Area want it then they will come out to it. I honestly think if they were able to play in the same arena as the Suns Phoenix would have been more successful. It doesnt help having a poor lease.
If you build an Arena putting it in downtown doesnt always work. It depends greatly on the area and how the traffic flow is. You could have a fantastic arena but if you put it in a location that is a traffic nightmare when you need to go to a game, people wont come.
Something comparative may be found in other sports....
Think of NFL when they destroyed the Kingdome to build a new home on the same lot they had Seattle play in the Univ of Washington football stadium for a couple of years. When Cleveland moved to Baltimore the team played in old memorial stadium while they build a new football field.

Chapter TwentyMature
Chapter Twenty
"Are you okay?" I asked as we ate.
"Yes, for the hundredth time I'm fine. Danny's no different from a dozen other guys I've had to deal with. Though I should shove a heel in his eye for what he almost did," Amber replied. Her mind imaging the scenario she just said. I shook my head at her and glanced across the hall. Danny wasn't anywhere to be seen. But Lewis was, he was sat on his own. Quinn was nearby, no doubt making side-comments.
"We are not moving to sit with psycho lonely boy," Amber said, reading my thoughts.
"Fine," I replied. At least I had Zack's promise to hold onto. When lunch ended I headed to Geography where Darren had clearly already heard the news.
"What am I going to do? I'll never find a good enough Joanne now," he whined. I barely stopped laughing as I wrote my notes.
"Thanks. I think," I said when I finished. Darren grumbled some more complaints before paying attention to the teacher. We both headed to philosophy but there was a big sign on the door saying cancelled.
"Go home early?" Derek suggested to the group. Kim and Darren both liked that idea. Kim probably wanted to go hang out with Anisha. Darren? He'd probably go read books or something.
"We can't. We're still training for the last football game of the season tonight," James said.
"Bugger," Derek muttered. They both headed for the gym and Amber took my hand.
"How about I take you for a proper date?" she suggested with a grin. I blushed at the idea and mumbled my agreement.
"Double-date?" Zack added making us laugh. I glanced at Nick to see if he wanted to go but his arms were already raised.
"I am not mentally fit enough to be the only single around two couple locking tongues. So I'll just go home," he said with a laugh.
"Aww, but you might meet someone," I pointed out.
"I think I'm good," Nick replied. I smiled at him, guessing he was still holding out for the 'difficult' person. He waved good bye and left, the chains on his jeans clicking against each other in the silent corridor.
"I guess we could make it an official goodbye dinner as well?" Michael suggested. Amber paused next to me, unsure how I would react. Part of me was sad hearing the suggestion. But I was glad he though it up.
"Let's go then," I said with a smile. We walked into the city centre and wandered the market. Me and Michael stopped to look at an art stand while the others wandered elsewhere.
"It all seems a bit unfair," Michael murmured. He realised he'd said it out loud and covered his mouth.
"It's okay. You're right," I said, he still sent me a sheepish look. "I guess I should've known it'd happened when my dad used the big 'promise' word," I continued, making air quotations.
"Well, we only have sixth form college. Then there's university," Michael said. I gave him a pointed look and we both laughed. Amber going to university was unlikely. But I couldn't deny finding his words helpful.
"I'd ask you to move in, but then you'd have to put with Evan ..." Michael said his name darkly. I remembered the guy I met at the restaurant and couldn't really blame him.
"Are things okay? I mean with the new home and everything?" I asked, still sketchy on the actual details regarding his parents. He shrugged, shoving his hands in his pockets uncomfortably. I flicked through some black and white photography, admiring how well the building and faces came out while he spoke.
"I guess. It's much better than our old one that's for sure. But Evan outright hates me and Jasmine mostly avoids me. Luckily she spends weekends with her mother. Evan has his own place, but he seems intent on always being around. I think he blames me just as much he blames his dad for the divorce," Michael said, his voice worn out. "Sorry, I'm rambling a little," he said with a nervous laugh.
"It's allowed. A lot's changed for you," I replied with a shrug.
"Understatement," he muttered back with a laugh.
"Let's go find the others," I said, wanting to get rid of his mopey mood. I grabbed his hand and headed for the clothing stands where Amber most likely was.

Telford & Wrekin Council said a new operating model for working with vulnerable children, young people and their families will result in a "reduction in the number of, and our input to, children's centres to a minimum".
There are currently 12 children's centres in Telford. The council said the new approach will also focus on "building community resilience".
"We will look for partners or communities to take on the running of some children's centre services/activities," a council document detailing the cuts reveals.
"Our communities will need to be supported in reducing their dependency on receiving services from the council. Our role will become more enabling, with an emphasis on finding positive role models within communities."
In total, Telford & Wrekin Council said it needs to make savings of £30m over the next two years having already made savings of £80m since 2010.
Savings to staffing costs as a result of the children's centre proposals will save the local authority £474,000 in 2016/17 and a further £800,000 in 2017/18 – a combined £1.27m.
The council also plans to save £1m in 2017/18 by reducing use of residential care for children with complex needs, and a further £151,000 a year by closing of a number of youth clubs run by part-time youth workers.
Just last month it emerged eight children's centres in Doncaster, four in Enfield, and 25 in Essex, are at risk as local authorities seek to make savings for the 2016/17 financial year.
The government had said it will launch a consultation on the future of children's centres. It had been due to launch last autumn but has been delayed.

This stock dips after every earnings report. Don't miss your chance.
CNBC asked the smartest people in the room for their thoughts on the markets and the economy.
Wal-Mart is doing what none of its competitors can do to gain its share of the $106 billion in economic stimulus check rebates that Americans will be receiving over the next few weeks. The world's biggest retailer Wal-Mart will:
Wall Street has been busy figuring out where and when consumers will spend their rebate checks, even as the latest consumer sentiment numbers show U.S. consumers are more distressed than they've been since 1982.
With consumers under siege from skyrocketing fuel and food prices, what's the best way to play a penny–pinching population?
What would you do with $600? If you're an American making $75,000 or less, you'll be receiving a rebate check in that amount by the end of May. Spend that payout on groceries at Kroger or Supervalu and those stores plan to give you some extra cash on top of that government money...
It costs consumers more to buy 'green' or eco-friendly products. But retailers are hoping that consumers' conscience will override price-consciousness when it comes to buying these green lines.
Following are the day's biggest winners and losers. Find out why shares of Supervalu and Crown Holdings popped while eBay and Chesapeake dropped.
With the ISM Numbers coming out today, this will be the first major economic indicator of the second quarter. The previous reading came in at 48.3 and consensus is for further contraction.

As food prices surge, America's supermarkets are also feeling the pain. While consumer food prices are up five percent, wholesale prices have soared a whopping 20 percent.

While other supermarket stocks go bad, Kroger is ripe for investors.Investing can be confusing.

Alan Wiley, the referee who faced down as innocently as some clear-eyed martyr the rage of Sir Alex Ferguson a few months ago, is now being given a virtually free ride.
It is being provided by all those who rushed, legitimately, to his support on the occasion of the classically intemperate attack by the Manchester United manager.
On that first occasion Wiley was guaranteed to walk free even from a kangaroo court after a near faultless afternoon's work. This time, though, he should be dead to rights. That he is not the runaway winner of the award for football scandal of the week is little short of breathtaking.
He committed an appalling error when he failed to punish William Gallas properly for a brutal late tackle on Mark Davies – and then compounded the distorting effect of his negligence by reporting, contrary to the impression he had given Bolton, that he had seen the incident and deemed it unworthy of any action.
The absurd result is that Gallas gets away with the kind of offence which has long been deemed the most serious in the game, the calculated, over-the-ball tackle most likely to cause serious injury.
When Eduardo da Silva had his career threatened by the unfettered attention of Birmingham City's Martin Taylor, Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger's initial rage was pretty much unlimited. He said that Taylor, who received wide support among fellow professionals as a player not known for a nasty streak, should be banned for life.
Wenger withdrew from that position quickly enough, as Bolton's Owen Coyle this week modified his claim that Gallas had committed an "assault" on his player. However, in neither case was there any doubt that serious fouls had been committed.
Whether Taylor's offence was deliberately destructive, or merely one born of poor timing and extreme recklessness, was beside the point. Rightly, he was sent off.
That Gallas received no sanction, not even a yellow card – when a red one was glaringly appropriate – was an outrage only compounded by the fact that Arsenal were allowed to play on against 10 men and score a hugely important goal.
Here, we have another example of a game being warped by the failure of an official to do his job. Human errors will, of course, always happen but it is sickening when such mistakes, ones of great influence on individual matches, are allowed to go unacknowledged by the authorities, especially when video review happens to make the nature of the offence quite clear.
Because Wiley claims that he saw the incident the matter is closed. It is quite absurd. No one is saying that Arsenal, having regained some poise and already reduced Bolton's two-goal lead by one, might not have eventually triumphed in other circumstances. But they would have found it considerably more difficult if they had been reduced to 10 men, as they should have been.
Yes, I guess we all know where we are heading with this. It is back into the great debate about technological assistance and the Luddite refusal of the football authorities even to begin to embrace it effectively after a whole decade of the 21st century.
What the current situation says in the important matter of retrospective discipline is that the referee is essentially infallible. If he takes action, however wrong-headed, or admits to seeing something which he deems unworthy of his attention, the process stops dead.
Gallas gets away with his atrocious, dangerous tackle. The referee sails blithely on in the assumption that he is the sole arbiter of what is just and what is not. And football, the world's most popular and profitable game, continues to trail behind most serious-minded sports in their administration of on-field justice.
It means that sports like tennis, rugby union (for all its other inconsistencies), rugby league and, moving swiftest of all to an infinitely healthier understanding of the importance of avoiding the kind of hideous error which so disfigured the recent World Cup play-off in Paris, when Thierry Henry so deceitfully and without repercussion handled France's passage into the finals, cricket, are a light year ahead of their senior rival.
One unacceptable premise is that football referees are entitled to some deity ranking way beyond the officials in other sports. One argument against the adoption of cricket's referral system is that it would undermine umpires. It has merely exposed the most incompetent of them.
Much was made of the Graeme Smith controversy in Johannesburg, when the South African captain stood his ground, on the way to a brilliant century, against English claims that he had fallen victim to the finest of edges. Risibly, the chairman of the England and Wales Cricket Board, Giles Clarke, suggested this could be the death of the new system. As it happened, the case against Smith was less than utterly unassailable and it was also true that the avoiding of serious mistakes in the four-Test series reached a quite remarkable level. Also dramatic was the reduction in frivolous, hectoring appeals.
The feeble argument of some anti-technological forces in football is that the game would become a hopelessly staccato series of brief bouts of football sandwiched between video appeals. Plainly, feasible application of film assistance will always vary from sport to sport. In football the main challenge is not to monitor all decisions but prevent the kind of travesty that occurred in Paris. The best use of technology, clearly, is to help the referee avoid the kind of error which can make a mockery of any contest.
This was not prevented at the Emirates this week and if it is right that much thought will need to go into the question of whether such random events can easily be rectified on the spot there is already an overwhelming case for giving a fourth official, armed with a pretty much all-seeing eye, a much more important role.
Unquestionably, such a fourth man with some understanding of the game, rather than a black and white set of laws, could have made a vital contribution this week. He could have wiped out a goal which flowed directly from a piece of dangerous, cynical play. Also, he could have ensured William Gallas faced some measure of proper justice.
Ponting protects a great tradition
Quote of the week came from a cricket star of the ages. It was supplied, not for the first time, by Australia's enduringly combative captain, Ricky Ponting, who is currently fighting to defend the structure of an Australian game which for so long has provided such a brilliant foundation for the highest achievement.
"Punter" was deploring the threat to the old Sheffield Shield first-class competition by the brutishly named Twenty20 KFC Big Bash League. He said: "We have always been very protective of our domestic cricket because we think it has developed and brought on a number of very good players through 100 years."
We all know the kind of player he had in mind: Bradman, Miller, Lindwall, Harvey, Border, Thompson, Lillee, the Waughs, Warne, McGrath, Gilchrist. This isn't to mention one of the greatest of them all, the former larrikin Ponting. His special honour is he understands the meaning of what he does and fights so hard to preserve it in some recognisable form.
Let's hope sex clinic gets Tiger on course
The arbiters of correct behaviour may have gleaned some dubious satisfaction from the picture of an unshaven, glum Tiger Woods patrolling the bleak acres of a sex addiction clinic in Mississippi.
Hopefully, the world's best golfer will draw some benefit from his humiliating experience.
But this is his business, his hope. In the meantime those of us who respond to the artistry and imagination of a great sportsman can only anticipate eagerly the day he returns to the golf course. We must hope it comes no later than the opening of the Masters tournament in Augusta.

The professional boxing business is thriving in Germany, where a crowd of 61,000 people was entertained on Saturday night in a heavyweight championship fight at the Veltins Arena when one man was hit just once in nine completed rounds.
Wladimir Klitschko retained his good looks and his World Boxing Organisation, International Boxing Organisation and International Boxing Federation championship belts when Ruslan Chagaev's cornermen decided that enough was enough at the end of round nine. Chagaev was cut, bemused and a few million euros richer, but his reputation is ruined.
There was not one messy moment, not one moment of drama and the only punch that landed on Klitschko's whiskers was thrown after the bell sounded and was therefore illegal!
Chagaev did his best to hurt Klitschko's hands, by sitting on the ropes with his ears cradled between his gloves, and offering the towering Ukrainian the chance to land every jab and all but two of his thunderous right hands. If Klitschko missed, he held on for dear life to avoid being hit.
Chagaev actually entered the ring as one of the World Boxing Association's two current world heavyweight champions, which only further complicates the distress all lovers of heavyweight boxing must be feeling. Chagaev, a former world amateur champion, fought a clueless but defiant fight and was hit with jab after jab until his desire joined his tactics in a void.
Klitschko never took a single risk, even when Chagaev retreated to the ropes ready to quit, and at the end was still not fully extending his punches in case Chagaev unleashed a short counter. Some might argue it was a magnificent performance by Klitschko, but heavyweight boxing should be about excitement, risk and the unknown.
Chagaev, to further hurt the division's tarnished image, has beaten the WBA's other incumbent, the massive Russian Nikolay Valuev, and has also, just like Klitschko, taken care of several hapless American heavyweights. The American heavyweight business is in the sporting sewer, with fighters from the last five years clearly lacking the aptitude, the attitude and the appetite for the fight. Meanwhile, a conveyor belt of big, stiff lumps from the former Soviet republics (Chagaev is from Uzbekistan) is still producing talented but dull fighters.
London's David Haye, who many see as a potential saviour, was due tofight Klitschko on Saturday but withdrew two weeks ago and will have to wait for a chance. Klitschko ended Haye's hopes of a quick opportunity, saying: "Haye should get in line and fight with his fists and not his mouth." Haye had vowed to knock out Klitschko, who he insists is scared of being hit.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Tela from Not very warm This coat looks great. Fit is wonderfull - not too tight or too lose and plenty of room to MOVE. However, this coat is not at all warm enough for a MN winter. I've had Columbia coats in this style before, and they have worked well. Maybe there was a redesign? If you are looking for something really warm - keep looking.

Rated 5 out of 5 by EFGH from Love the coat, but runs big I have had a Columbia Omni-heat jacket for years and love it! I was looking to upgrade to one that was omni heat and Omni shield/water proof. The coat I wanted to replace was a small, so that's the size I ordered. I LOVED the color combination and was so excited when it came in the mail. When I tried it on, it was almost as big as the medium I had tried on in store. I would have exchanged it for an extra small one, but at that point they were out of extra smalls! Bummer...maybe next year!

Rated 4 out of 5 by WatermEllen from I like it This jacket is not actually fitted at the waist. Otherwise, I really like it. It has princess seaming, so I bet it will be easy for a tailor to take in at the waist. The size chart says I'm size M, but M was huge on me. I got a size small next, which fit better in most ways. I can still wear a sweater under it. The smaller size did bind a tad in the shoulders, which is fine for my purposes. If you ski, you probably want to follow Columbia's size recommendation for the sake of unrestricted movement. The fleece liner is a little stiff, but soft to the touch. It's a thinner liner than I expected. Maybe that's because you make a lot of heat when you ski. For me, it's a good windbreaker for walking on windy, merely chilly Texas days. I think it will work for our "cold" days if I wear a sweater! Note: I get cold easily, even by Texan standards.

Rated 1 out of 5 by DisappointedDee from Bugaboo quality not what it used to be I purchased this coat in February 2016 from Sports Authority. It was a replacement for the Columbia Bugaboo 3-in-1 interchange jacket I had bought about 10 years prior and absolutely loved, but had a tear in the outer shell. This will likely be the last jacket I purchase from Columbia. The quality and attention to detail is very poor compared to previous versions. Things my previous Bugaboo jacket had that this one lacks: 1) Elastic on the sleeves of the inner fleece jacket to keep out the cold (useful when you buy up 1 size planning on wearing bulky sweaters in a Wisconsin winter) 2) An elastic pull cord at the bottom of the fleece to keep cold air from blowing up your back. 3) An inner security pocket in the fleece 4) An outside left breast zippered pocket in the shell 5) An outside sleeve pocket - really not missed, was never used. Things this jacket has that previous Bugaboo jacket didn't: 1) Omni-heat dots- completely negated by the lack of elastic built into the fleece cuffs. 2) The inner security pocket in the shell is zippered instead of velcro like the previous version. This is a nice feature, but somewhat negated by the lack of security pocket in the fleece.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Unhappycustomer33 from Winter jacket??????? A winter jacket? Bought this for my wife as a gift. The item is described as a winter jacket it is very thin and not warm at all. Maybe a winter jacket for Florida. It also is described as 3 jackets in one. All it is is a rain coat with a flimsy zip out liner. Either returning it or saving it if we ever go on a trip to the amazon in February. Don't waste your money unless you want a really expensive rain coat

Rated 5 out of 5 by Billie7 from It's a heat bubble I love this coat!! I've currently had it for 2 winters in Chicago. I wore it ice skating when the wind chill was -40*F. After an hour of skating, I had to sit in the ice house to stop sweating before heading home. We're currently suppose to be a polar vortex and majority of the time, I'm only needed the fleece. I really only need the fleece until it drops to high teens or low 20s. Wind breaker by itself, lasts me till the mid-40s.

Rated 2 out of 5 by GeezLouise from Ripped within 2 weeks I have been wearing this coat for a only a few weeks and I went to take it off last night and the stitching came apart where the lining is stitched to the outer shell of the coat. Needless to say I am not thrilled that I already have to sew it after very little use. This is actually the 3rd Columbia coat I have owned and I never had problems with them years ago. Another frustration is how the fleece sleeves do not come off as easily because of how they are not permanently attached to the outer shell so you have to be careful when taking the coat off...very careful so it doesn't rip. I have been wearing a North Face coat prior to this one for years and thought I would give Columbia another shot. The coat is warm but not satisfied with function and durability.

Rated 1 out of 5 by CharLou from Looks cheap, feels cheap This 3 in 1 is lighter than my spring jackets. I have never seen such a thin fleece. The "reflective" Omnheat lining makes it look like cheap foil/saran lining. I have seen better quality in Walmart and will be returning asap. I wouldn't wear it at 1/4 of the price. Too bad - my old Columbia jacket looked good and was a true winter jacket. Another expensive brand cheaped out.

We own 2 of these jackets for summer/fall rain to ski/snowboarding season...THEY ARE PERFECT!

Rated 3 out of 5 by Goody from Please lose the velcro!! I got this jacket as a replacement for one I had from Columbia previously, which had Velcro all down the front and self-destructed! I haven't worn this one yet - I got it because it was the ONLY Interchange jacket I could find on the site, in the color I wanted, that did NOT have Velcro ALL the way up the front (only partway - and I am considering getting a seam ripper and removing it). I AGREE with this review of a similar Columbia jacket: " I kept this jacket only because it's the closest I could find to the last Columbia jacket I purchased, but I'm already wishing I hadn't kept it because the Velcro down the front placket of the jacket is sticking to everything and driving me crazy! When I take it off the hanger to put it on, I have to lay it down and pull the jacket apart because the Velcro pieces are stuck together. The Velcro sticks to my clothing and the Velcro pieces on the cuffs when I am putting the jacket on, as well as scratching my skin. AWFUL!!!" I am hoping against hope that this jacket will not shred itself along with all my scarves, etc. - but I URGE COLUMBIA TO LOSE THE VELCRO AND GO BACK TO SNAPS. Seriously. MAJOR design flaw.

Rated 2 out of 5 by rmm1011 from The don't make 'em like they used to I bought this jacket because I've completely worn out my old Columbia 2-in-1 jacket. Had it for 10+ years and love it (still). Two things they should have figured out by now: 1. Considering the length of this coat, it should have a second zipper that unzips from the bottom for ease of movement and sitting. But it doesn't:[ 2. The lining should be slippery so that it slides over whatever you're wearing, but it doesn't it's like brushed cotton (or something) so it grabs your sweater sleeves and bunches them up. If you raise your arm over your head (which I have to do a lot in my work), you have to reach under and pull your sweater down right or it's all rucked up under the jacket. Did anybody actually try this on????

Rated 3 out of 5 by gall0171 from Beware the color I purchased the Bluebell. The color was much more vibrant than it looks online. The blue part was definitely brighter, almost purplish and the peach was more of a bright pink. Definitely not my color palette so I returned it. Also of note the sleeves are very open (even with the velcro at the bottom) which won't do for a Minnesota winter.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Vdahna from Runs very big I have read many reviews that people felt this ran small but I completely disagree. I'm 5'4/125lbs/C cup and ordered a small. I tried on the Columbia Whirlibird in a store in small, if fit perfectly but they did not offer the color here on the website that I liked, as well as I own two other Columbia jackets in small so hence why I ordered a small. The sleeves are extremely too long and I look pregnant my husband said wearing this jacket. It's VERY baggy/big looking and I tried it on with a thick sweater. I'm extremely unhappy and should have just had the whirlibird ordered in a different color than I liked because as least I know it would fit properly. The red camilia whirlibird was not an option on their website like it was at a store that had it. I had someone order this jacket for me so now I'm stuck because it's too much of a hassle to mail it back to them to mail back to Columbia with the receipt that they have and then reorder another jacket all before my Alaska trip next month. Anyways, the point is if you're around my stats, I'd order an xs or know the small will be baggy. As usual with any Columbia jacket, it is well made/great quality.

Rated 5 out of 5 by dbivens from Bump It Up I had to reorder this jacket TWICE to get one that fit. It runs VERY small. I usually wear an XL and ended up with a 2X for proper fit. Other than that, it is beautiful and very well made. It was well worth the trouble. Alaska, here I come!

Rated 4 out of 5 by MamaTechieShopaholic from Love the versatility and quality I love this jacket - it is literally an all-weather jacket combo. I should've gotten a small - I'm 5'4" and 135 lbs and the medium is baggy. I wanted enough room to wear a sweater under, but the medium is still a little large. I bought the Dahlia color - rich wine, burgundy. Love it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Sachi from Fit Excellent quality. I like the fact that the jacket has a removable lining. If it gets warmer, can remove. Got a small. A little snug in the arms because well padded but medium would have been too big. Going on Alaska cruise so need added warmth for evenings.

Rated 5 out of 5 by JackCanuck from Great light duty jacket Omni heat keeps you warm and outtershell keeps you dry. Perfect for winter in the Pacific Northwest. Not heavy enough to take to the slopes or back country but great for day hikes and day to day wear.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Rayna from Womens Bugaboo Interchange Jacket You can't go wrong with Columbia. I absolutely LOVE this jacket/coat. As a tall/lengthy woman with a very small frame I have a hard time finding clothing to fit not only my body but my long arms. The sleeves on this jacket are super long which I absolutely LOVE!!! I couldn't have made a better purchase. Initially, I ordered a size up (LRG), but when I received the coat it was far too big. So, Customer service helped me return the jacket and get a medium. Even with the medium I have plenty of room to put layers underneath. I am 5'11 125lbs. I normally wear a size 0-5 depending on the brand. But, always have to order a size up due to the length of my arms. Customer service told me that from the XS-L there is only a 1/2 inch difference in the length of the sleeves. So, I would suggest ordering your regular size. Hope you enjoy this jacket as much as I am. It is so very warm, waterproof, and windproof. I bought this for snowy/cold weather and skiing. ENJOY!!!!

I live in upstate NY, and it isn't warm enough to compete with the 5 degree morning temperatures. This coat is awesome for people who live in more mild climates. I wouldn't buy this if it gets colder than 30 degrees.

Rated 5 out of 5 by almagrace from Everything I expected and more! I just bought this jacket to use for skiing and I absolutely love it! A few complaints here say that they dislike this jacket because it is "flimsy" persay, and I would agree that this jacket is not "sturdy," but it gives you great motility for skiing that I could not love more. It is very light and easy to wear. I ordered a Medium (I'm 5'9", 150 pounds) and it fits me perfectly. Which says a lot because I usually struggle with having sleeves that are too short. The fleece on the inside is comfy and it is nice and warm and I can't wait to use it out on the mountains again. I give this a 10/10. Good buy that was very affordable; thanks Columbia!

It keeps me super warm when the temps dip below 0 but doesn't overheat me when it gets above 32. The sleeves are long enough to comfortably fit my 6 foot frame. It's also not too restrictive when I'm driving. The collar also pops up nice and high to help cut down the wind. I am really pleased with this coat!

Feb 12, 2010 at 6:18 am #1255177
Jeremy GBPL Member
@gustafsjLocale: Minneapolis
I am headed out for a winter camping trip in Northern Minnesota and am trying to figure out how cold my planned sleeping system will take me.
It is currently -18F in the region that we are headed too. We are not going until the end of Feb., but it could still get that cold or colder at that time.
Can somebody give me some good feedback on my numbers and questions??
Referencing Mark Verber's website for insulation values and playing it conservatively…
– Sierra Sniveller Long – 2" Baffles with 2.5" Overstuff -> WM says 20F for 2.5", JRB says 25-30F)
– Lafuma 45F Polyfill Bag (Long) converted to quilt (overbag) – 1" Loft for a total of 3-3.5" -> Verber says 0F for 3.5" (I would probably put the system at 10F)
– Titanium Goat Raven XL Bivy – Verber says 5-15F addition. Due to highly breathable material and non-reflective, I put it closer to 5F Addition (Summing it up, the system so far should get me down to 5F)
– Insulated clothes – Marmot Down Inner Jacket has about 2" loft, BPL Cocoon Pro 60 Side Zip pants are about 1.5". In theory, this should get me down to at least -30F, but I'd be surprised if this was actually the case. I'd also be extremely nervous about pushing it that cold!
I plan on wearing my VB socks in my wool boot liners for my feet. I also have a poly-fill insulated balaclava for my head. Lastly, I will be wearing all my base layers (merino wool).
-Sleeping Pad -> REI Blue Foam 3/8" = 1.4 R-Value, I'm pretty sure the Walmart Pad I just picked up is 1/2" which has a 2.2 R-Value. I'm not actually sure how cold this will get me too, but I would think easily down to 0F. Haven't totally figured this out yet.
Will each layer allow the layer below it to loft fully?? I guess this is one advantage of using quilts, however, the bivy will only allow so much loft as well. I plan on putting my sleeping pads outside of the bivy, so this should help.
Also, I have thought about picking up a down vest to combine with my JRB down sleeves in lieu of bringing the Marmot Down Jacket. Is this worth the weight savings?
Because I have the Sniveler, I can wear that as needed around camp if I decide to swap out the down inner with a vest. Or am I risking too much using my down quilt out in the elements?
I plan on using a Driducks XXL jacket over either my down inner or over the Sniveler quilt. Any thoughts on this?Feb 12, 2010 at 6:23 am #1572947
Chris WBPL Member
@simplespiritLocale: .
I believe you want ground insulation with a combined R-value of 5 or greater for below freezing temps and you'll be cold with your proposed pad combo.Feb 12, 2010 at 6:37 am #1572950
john TierSpectator
@peter_panLocale: Co-Owner Jacks 'R' Better, LLC, VA
I agree with Chris… thicker pads are needed… Also they need to be plenty long and plenty wide…. Elbows hanging off on the ground is a No-No at Zero…A decent WP ground cloth will help as well.
UL at zero and below is a far cry from UL at 30 and even farther than SUL at 40 or 50 degrees.

John VanceBPL Member
@servingkoLocale: Intermountain West
I would agree that insulation under you should be at least R-5 for those temps. I have taken UL down to 0f and a bit lower but it isn't for the faint of heart. I use an Exped Downmat 7 full length and it makes a HUGE difference over my Prolite 4 + closed cell.
In addition, If you feel drafts in a quilt set up at 32f, you will find the nights very long at 0f. I would recommend a light bag over the quilt at these temps but if you combine your quilt with a light bag you could wear the quilt in camp and use it to extend a light bag.
This is what I currently use for winter and it works very well.Feb 12, 2010 at 7:49 am #1572978
I think the bivy would easily add 10 degrees of warmth. The amount of draft that a bivy reduces is nothing to sneeze at in temps that cold, especially with quilts.
I think people put too much insulation on their arms and legs. Tests have shown that your insulation works better on your torso and head. So I vote for a vest instead of a jacket/sweater. Make sure your core and head are well insulated when you sleep and your whole body will feel warmer.
Like they say "if your feet get cold, put on a hat"Feb 12, 2010 at 9:26 am #1573006
Jeremy GBPL Member
@gustafsjLocale: Minneapolis
Thanks for the feedback thus far!
Any recommendations on low-cost sleeping pads for cold weather? Do I just add another CCF pad to my existing system? I do have a Z-Rest, or could I replace the 3/8" pad with my old thermarest? I don't remember the specs on that, but I think it is a 1".
I have used the thermarest plus my z-rest down to about 15F on snow and was comfortable.
Also have used the 3/8" pad by itself down to about 25F, was a little chilly, but manageable.
How about any suggestions on an low-cost lightweight insulated vest?Feb 12, 2010 at 10:05 am #1573011
I just received a synthetic Golite Caddy, last years model on sale at Campsaver for less than $50.
I went with synthetic because it doesn't compress as much when you wear it and it's good in wet weather.
My sleeping bag is down so I want to at least have my clothing be hydrophobic:-)Feb 12, 2010 at 11:03 am #1573026
Ross BleakneyBPL Member
@rossbleakneyLocale: Cascades
For low cost insulation, nothing beats closed cell pads. Just bring lots and lots of them. The only drawback is the bulk. If you can't stand the bulk, then you'll probably have to pay for the down filled inflatables.
Excellent point by Steven. Make sure your core (especially your head) is well insulated.Feb 12, 2010 at 11:10 am #1573028

You may want to toss this under your blow up bad:
For temps below 0 start looking to the mountaineering guys' gear for what works.Feb 12, 2010 at 4:23 pm #1573119
Eric BlumensaadtBPL Member
@danepackerLocale: Mojave Desert
The R – 5 recommendation for mattresses posted above seems a bit high.
I'm a cold sleeper but am fine with just my Trail Pro mattress (R – 3.8) when temps are in the teens.
If I knew it was going into the single digits or below zero I'd use my RidgeRest beneath the Trail Pro. But I'd also be using my M.H. 4th Dimension -20 F. Polarguard bag too.
The RidgeRest Deluxe (a thicker, softer version of my RidgeRest) only has a 3.2 R value and Cascade Designs recommends it for winter camping.Feb 12, 2010 at 4:38 pm #1573122
Brad GrovesMember
@4quietwoodsLocale: Michigan
R-5 is probably about right. Guess it depends on the sleeper and system as a whole, but some pretty reliable research on the subject. Personally shoot for ~R-6, ~R-8 for subzero. Sleep comfy warm! Remember, ~35% of your insulation comes from underneath you (if a back sleeper)… See the following threads:
also consider:
20*F below zero is not a time for screwing around with a stack of pads that you hope might be warm enough… Realize that there's a lot of difference between systems that work at +15*F and -20*F. Kinda like the difference between systems that works at 15*F or 50*F… Gotta say, a Downmat 9 is the way to go for deep winter.Feb 12, 2010 at 5:27 pm #1573138
Chad MillerMember
@chadnscLocale: Duluth, Minnesota
As a backpacker with a few seasons in northern Minnesota during the winter I agree that shooting for an R-Value of 5 for your sleeping pad is a good idea. Personally I like to use two long sized RidgeRest pads. I do not like to use self inflating pads in the winter as they take a long time to loft up, and they seem to loose a good deal of insulation through their sides when it's below 15 degrees.
For my sleeping bag I will typically still use a zero degree bag until the end of Feb. If the temperatures look warm then I will take a 20 degree bag and augment it with the high loft clothing I'd be taking anyways. For me personally I've found that trying to boost the warmth of bags lower than 20 degrees with insulated clothing actually becomes heavier and colder than simply using a warmer bag with a draft collar.Feb 12, 2010 at 5:50 pm #1573144
I agree with Chad, you loose a lot of heat through a low R sleeping pad. Having a huge amount of insulation up top doesn't do much good if your body heat is going into the ground. This is especially true if you sleep on wet, frozen or rocky ground.
Now if you can find a pile of relatively dry leaves, then the R factor of your sleeping pads doesn't matter:-)

One may lose it under certain circumstances.
Your friend cannot file for citizenship, as he has not had his permanent residence long enough to qualify. He can get a divorce and keep his green card, but he needs good legal representation. I would strongly suggest that he consult with both an experienced immigration attorney and an experienced matrimonial attorney for professional help and guidance.
This answer is of a general nature and should not be relied upon as final, nor is it intended as legal advice. A consultation with an experienced attorney is always the best way to go.Ask a similar question
This is a very delicate situation. You friends will need to discuss all pros and cons of inevitable divorce with a local immigration counsel as it will change the dynamics of his legal status and subsequent submissions to remove the condition on the LPR unilaterally with a bona fide package.

He has options, but they won't be easy. He should get a local immigration attorney to guide him through the process.

If this was a good faith marriage and they have been married for six years, he doesn't have to worry about losing the greencard. If I was him in light of her threat to accuse him of fraud, I would be keeping records of her statements/actions in case there is trouble ahead. Read the requirements for N-400, if he just got his greencard in 2011, he doesn't qualify for USC yet.Ask a similar question
Your friend should not continue being abused, but should seek advice from an immigration attorney about his situation. His options would be primarily based on whether the greencard he got back in 2011 is conditional or not. It seems like it was not a conditional one, and then he would be able to divorce his spouse without any immigration consequences.
