What a week. A hearing to question a hearing followed by one of the most high-profile omissions in Lions history. This 2013 series finale is good to go.
Just like in 2001, the British and Irish Lions tour will go down to the wire against the Wallabies amid off-field drama worthy of Ramsay Street.
Twelve years ago we had Austin Healey's ghost-written column that stirred the pot while this time Down Under...well, the lid has come off in 2013.
Where else to begin than with selection. Warren Gatland couldn't have imagined on what scale the fallout his axing of Brian O'Driscoll would create heading into this weekend. Social media went into meltdown on Wednesday with messages of surprise from New Zealand playmaker Daniel Carter, former Wallabies centre Matt Giteau and thousands of fans as O'Driscoll was not in the 23 - when surely the Lions were short on leaders.
We then had a 'Justice for BOD' facebook group, Hitler's reaction on youtube and several photo-shopped pictures as the dust refused to settle.
We reckon Lions legend Phil Bennett's selection summary was the most damning: "Everything's been lovely and...this morning it's all gone to pieces," he stated.
It leaves Gatland running the fine line of being either a genius should the Lions be victorious or vilified in defeat, as once again questions are raised over players having coaches fighting their corner. Like it or not, relationships and familiarities have played a large part in 2013.
One wonders if the lack of leadership - missing Paul O'Connell, Sam Warburton and O'Driscoll - will affect the performance in this high-pressure game at ANZ Stadium.
Australia meanwhile have gone the other route and added 2001 series winner George Smith to their starting XV, despite openside Michael Hooper's excellent recent form.
Those who have watched Super Rugby this season will know Smith is an impressive ball carrier for the Brumbies, regularly standing out at first-phase, crashing it up in midfield before Ben Mowen, Christian Lealiifano et al contribute. Expect to see Smith running at first receiver off line-outs as they know occupying Jamie Roberts in midfield defence will go a long way to allowing the likes of James O'Connor and Lealiifano to create for the backline.
Back to the Lions and while I feel Toby Faletau is deserving of the number eight jersey, I find it hard to fathom why Tom Croft fell out of Gatland's thinking after the first Test. The blindside was statistically their strongest forward in Brisbane but found himself down amongst the replacements in Melbourne. This week, when the Lions will surely need Croft's unrivalled abilities, he falls out of the 23 altogether. A trio of Faletau, Sean O'Brien and Croft would have been ideal for me. It's also worth noting he is another to have Lions Test experience.
These are all words - like so many other people's since Wednesday - that will be eaten should the British and Irish Lions prevail, winning their first Test series since 1997.
Momentum though is, of course, with the home side after the Melbourne victory and even O'Driscoll recently revealed that in 2001 Australia carried that critical element through from the second Test into the third and the Lions ultimately could not stop it. In that very same interview - two weeks ago with George Gregan no less - he said that "as a youngster I thought experience was overrated but as an old fellah I realise it's underrated". Another interesting twist to this tale, which is furthered by the returning Smith's words this week.
"I played on instinct in 2001. My rugby awareness is a lot better nowadays," he said. "My understanding of players and why we do what we do, why you run these lines, why you tackle a certain way. There's a lot of things you pick up by playing. I've played a lot of rugby and if you pick up one thing each time you play, there is a wealth of knowledge there."
You can't make this stuff up in a week that has seen Lions supporters baying for their own coaching staff's blood. Not quite the mind games we were expecting as more than 30,000 Lions fans descend on Sydney for a match that could create legends. Red or Gold?
Ones to watch:
For Australia: 32-year-old George Smith last played for the Wallabies against Wales in Cardiff in 2009. But such is the pedigree of this experienced flanker that coach Robbie Deans has named him in his side after seven weeks out with a knee injury. With 110 Test appearances, he is Australia's third-most capped player behind George Gregan (139) and Nathan Sharpe (116). It is worth mentioning that Deans has selected both Ben McCalman and Michael Hooper on the bench as a precaution so we may well see Ben Mowen, Hooper and McCalman together if Smith's knee doesn't hold for the full 80 minutes in Sydney.
For B&I Lions: Let's take poor Jonathan Davies out of the spotlight for this one and instead go for the recalled Mike Phillips. The nine position has been the most frequented over the past fortnight as all three tourists have been given opportunities to impress. Phillips was first, helping the Lions to victory despite struggling to ignite the backline due to making too many steps before passing or instead finding contact. Ben Youngs was promptly called in but now finds himself where Phillips was last week. The Welshman's form is critical.
Head-to-head: The return of Jamie Roberts is huge for the tourists as the 2009 player of the tour's ability to bust over the advantage line cannot be undervalued. Whether it was Jonathan Davies, Brian O'Driscoll or Manu Tuilagi outside him, they would benefit from the Welshman's power. Christian Lealiifano is in front of him this week after bouncing back from his Brisbane minute with a great full debut in Melbourne. George Smith's inclusion is noteworthy after Roberts was named. I expect Smith, who is used as a regular carrier at in Canberra, to target Roberts in defence, thus allowing Lealiifano maximum possible space to attack without the former Cardiff man in his face. So many factors in this intriguing battle.
Recent results:
2013: Australia won 16-15 in Melbourne - Lions won 23-21 in Brisbane
2001: Australia won 29-23 in Sydney - Australia won 35-14 in Melbourne - Lions won 29-13 in Brisbane
1989: Lions won 19-18 in Sydney - Lions won 19-12 in Brisbane - Australia won 30-12 in Sydney
Prediction: Australia are slight favourites with the bookies in a game that could honestly go either way. The inclusion of Smith, Roberts, Faletau and Alex Corbisiero adds to the subplot but I feel that despite BOD's absence, the tourists are set to end the drought. Lions by 2!
The teams:
Australia: 15 Kurtley Beale, 14 Israel Folau, 13 Adam Ashley-Cooper, 12 Christian Lealiifano, 11 Joe Tomane, 10 James O'Connor, 9 Will Genia, 8 Wycliff Palu, 7 George Smith, 6 Ben Mowen, 5 Kane Douglas, 4 James Horwill (captain), 3 Ben Alexander, 2 Stephen Moore, 1 Benn Robinson.

Living without cruelty
10 Ways to Transform Your World
Much of Animal Aid's work is directed at exposing cruelty to animals. But it is equally important to promote the many different ways in which individual people, in their own lives, can help end animal suffering.
Ordinary, everyday decisions make a difference! We call it Living Without Cruelty. Simple actions like choosing only to buy cosmetics that haven't been tested on animals, adopting a fur free policy when it comes to buying clothes and accessories and cutting animal products from your diet, are examples of positive steps you can take. And don't worry, you will still be able to shop in your favourite stores. Once you start looking, you won't believe how many cruelty-free items are available.
Cruelty-Free Goods
In March 2013, the European Union introduced a complete ban on the sale of all new cosmetics that have been tested on animals. This is a tremendous achievement, but there are still companies selling products outside of the EU that have been tested on animals. The humane cosmetics 'leaping bunny' logo continues to be the best way to ensure that the products you buy are cruelty-free.
Compassionate people are horrified by the thought of animals being farmed and killed for their fur. And it's easy to see why. Naturally wild animals are confined in tiny cages for their entire lives. They are prevented from carrying out normal social behaviour, and suffer severe psychological problems as a result of extreme anxiety and fear.
Cruelty-Free Home
Living without cruelty means thinking beyond what we eat and wear, to all aspects of our lives. By choosing animal-friendly options, we can all take positive action to help end animal suffering, and make our homes truly cruelty-free.
Companion Animals
Many of us are lucky enough to share our homes with companion animals, who are important and much-loved members of the family. Sadly, not all animals are this fortunate, and there are thousands of unwanted and abandoned animals in rescue centres across the country in desperate need of a home.
Sport and Leisure
Sadly, some people in our society consider it acceptable to exploit and kill animals in the name of leisure and sport. Despite the ban, many hunts continue to kill foxes, deer and hares, and every year the game bird industry breeds more than 40 million pheasants and partridges to be shot. And it's not just the obvious blood sports that cause animal suffering. Horse racing may be appear to be harmless, yet more than 400 horses are raced to death every year. Only 40 per cent of horses bred for racing go on to compete, and many of those who don't make the grade are slaughtered for meat to be consumed abroad. Please do not fund this cruel industry by betting on or attending races.
Purple Poppy: Commemorating the Animal Victims of War
Throughout the history of human conflicts, animals have been victims of war. During World War I, dogs and pigeons were used to deliver messages between frontline trenches and further afield. Horses, donkeys and elephants have been used as beasts of burden, while a shocking array of animals - from bears to deer - have been kept as pets in the midst of battle. Today, animals continue to be used to detect explosives, and thousands suffer and die each year in laboratories, infected with biological or chemical agents, or deliberately shot.
Don't Send a Cow
Our Don't Send a Cow campaign debunks animal donor schemes to 'developing countries' and shows there are much better, more economical and environmentally-friendly ways of helping.
Christmas Without Cruelty
Every December, Animal Aid's Living Without Cruelty campaign is promoted with an easy guide to a cruelty-free Christmas. We also stage Animal Aid's Christmas Fayre in central London, which is packed with gifts to buy and delicious food, plus talks by well-known speakers and a children's play area.Read more about Christmas Without Cruelty Our 2014 Christmas Fayre will be held at Kensington Town Hall on Sunday 7 December

Walton: Chamber Music
No 1: Fain would I change that note
No 2: O stay, sweet love
No 3: Lady, when I behold the roses
No 4: My love in her attire
No 5: I gave her cakes and I gave her ale
No 6: To couple is a custom
The first three lyrics were also used by English Renaissance lute and madrigal composers, and are found respectively in Hume's Musicall Humors (1605), John Farmer's first book of madrigals (1599) and John Wilbye's first book of madrigals (1598). Throughout the songs Walton reflects the spirit of such composers: rhythmic conceits within the poems are exploited; so too is the expressive potential of word-play, as heard in the first setting with its wide, expressive intervals for the voice and the aching dissonance between voice and guitar at the opening.
The second song with its puckish accompaniment finds the lover in cajoling mood, although the saucy punch line of the object of his desire shows that his earnest endeavours were unnecessary! In the third the lover compares the colour of damask roses to his lover's lips in an ardent vocal line that reaches a sensuous climax, appropriately, on the word 'lips'. The fourth song has a vivacious scherzo-like quality with the voice part mainly in quavers until it pointedly changes to staccato crotchets for the final pert line, 'When all her robes are gone'. In 'I gave her cakes and I gave her ale' the music has a rollicking character with virtuoso writing for both voice and guitar featuring glissandi, grace-notes and the body of the guitar tapped in imitation of a drum. The melody of the final song is almost like a folk song which in the first three verses is accompanied by the nonchalant 'vamping' of the guitar. In the final verse, however, both voice and guitar increasingly become more animated with syncopated rhythms and misplaced accents that create a mood of heady anticipation at the prospect of the lover winning his lady's hand.

Fabric Scraps Chicken Wall Art
By: Chasity Gordon of Belle and Burger
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Use fabric scraps to create a custom chicken wall art piece for home decorating or gift giving this spring. Designer Chasity Gordon recommends making a chick in spring color fabrics for Easter. Three different finished examples included.
1. cut frame fabric. cut for strips of fabric to cover your frame. Mine measured 2@2"x8" and 2@2"x6" to cover a frame that's surface is 1 1/4" X5/8" deep. ...
I have stash of clearance sale frames I keep for quick gifts.
I think the best way to find out the measurement for your frame is to lie the fabric on the frame and cut a little longer than the depth but cut exactly the width.
The 4 corners will overlap on the flat part of the frame.
but will not over lap on the sides; making it easier to fold over neatly.
2. Attach the fabric to your frame .I like to use a big Ol' bowl when I am using modgepodge. I pour a little in the bowl then coat the strips using a brush in the bowl.
I applied my fabric on the longest sides first, then the shorter ones.
I did it like that to match up the strips in the ticking fabric.
I made sure to try and keep any excess on one side so it would trim easily. I trimmed while it was still wet ...very carefully WITH CRAFT SCISSORS!! that I immediately washed.
Set the frames aside to dry, you might prop them as I did on little rocks.
3. Print the chic pattern. Just click and drag it to your desktop and print image to "scale". This chic fits nicely into a 4x6 frame. If your using a bigger or smaller frame adjust your chic accordingly.
4. Make your fabric chics. For the red chic I used a damaged vintage quilt square. For the other I made a small patchwork and cut my chic from it. You could also cut a chic from a single scrap of fabric and make this a no-sew project.
a. To make your own patchwork simply cut 4 , 2" x3" squares of fabric that are eye pleasing in combination.
Stitch them together to make one 4"x6" rectangle and press.
b. Next for whichever method you are getting your chic; attach fusible interface, then heat and bond to the back side.
c. Arrange and trace your chic. Make sure your chic is on your fabric so that you get the look you want.I suggest if you are using the a patchwork fabric , to make sure the legs are not on a seam, this just make for neater chicken legs!
Trace the chic on the back side directly on the heat and bond paper , it won't bleed through.
5. Cut a background. You can use the paper that came with the frame as the template for your background or trace one if you don't have that. I cut my background from one piece of fabric but you could sew together a background as well.
...like this one I made for Cinda with a bi-color field behind the chic sort of like a horizon line.(sorry about the glarey photo)
6. Attach your chic to the background. First lay the frame over the background and decide the placement of your chic before you adhere it .
I like to add a top stitch around the edge of the chic, but the heat and bond will be enough if you do not want to stitch.
I also like to attach a flat button at this point, as a little peeper.
7. Frame and hang your scrappy chic art!

Buying Tips
Its a game-room staple for the whole family: Up the fun factor at your next get-together with a simple table tennis table.
If youre going for serious training, choose a tennis table that meets dimensions established by the International Table Tennis Federation9-feet by 4-feet and 30 inches tall.
For most, table tennis is just a great game for their household. Consider where you will use your table before making your purchase:
Outdoor Table Tennis: Picture it: A table tennis game at your next summer barbeque. Bring the game outside with a table designed to withstand the elements. Choose an outdoor table coated with aluminum, which prevents warping, scratching and cracking. Powder-coated steel legs provide stability.
Indoor Table Tennis: Indoor table tennis tables are generally built with a wood or composite surface, which provides quick response and bounce for intense play. Some systems fold for better storage when not in use.
Where space is limited, go for a mini-table tennis table, rollaway table or a tabletop that fits over an existing billiards table.
Expert Advice
The game cant get underway without table tennis paddles.
Some players choose pre-packaged table tennis kits, which include complete paddles, or rackets, and other accessories, including table tennis balls.
Experienced players assemble their paddle from three distinct parts: A wooden handle, blade and rubber blade covering. This configuration enables players to better control the feel and performance of their paddle.
The rubber blade covering comes in varying degrees of thickness. As a general rule, thicker padding creates faster speed, but reduces control. A thinner rubber layer promotes more precise shots. Get a grip on your game: Table tennis paddles that come with a concave handle provide better feel and performance.

I came back from the seventh Organization for Professional Astrology (OPA) retreat in Asilomar, California with a hopeful outlook. One reason for my optimism was that I experienced the community of astrologers in a different light. Professionals and amateurs alike were truly interacting in meaningful ways; it was not solely about delivering a presentation and then going back to one's own personal business. Rather, it was a very creative mode of learning, where astrological knowledge was presented through multiple media. Workshops included creative writing, spiritual development, and counseling training. But more than anything, the retreat — despite the large number of attendees — felt like being with family: warm and intimate.
I first met Bob Mulligan, the founder of OPA, in 2003, when I was very much a newbie to the American astrology community. During our occasional brief exchanges, I gathered that he was leading the organization, and though I was really appreciative of the person himself, his generous character, and his beautiful vision, the last thing on my mind was the thought of belonging to any group. My Aries Midheaven was perfectly happy going solo and enjoying its creative freedom. So, when Bob asked me to lead a group during one of the OPA retreats, my response was to politely decline.
Welcome Party
Morning Session Theme: Professional Issues for Practicing Astrologers
Five established professional astrologers will share how they have succeeded in launching their careers in these 30-minute presentations. They will provide the keys used to organize their consulting work and tell us how they have built their clientele and achieved financial sustainability. We will learn what it means to be successful. Use of today's technology and handling some of the consulting tools to achieve optimum outcomes will be addressed. Looking at a variety of consulting styles may release us from the feeling that there is only one "acceptable" way to do our work.
In the afternoon, we divide into small, randomly selected groups, led by an OPA group leader to further explore the information. Everyone will be able to give and receive information on each person's chart. Discovering and possibly identifying your consulting style may be worth the voyage. The afternoon will end with everyone back together with the larger group for sharing insights.

The Moon in Relation to the Transpersonal Planets: Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto
The Moon in a chart represents our most personal needs. When they form aspects to transpersonal planets, these personal needs are challenged because of evolutionary pressures. In this presentation Karianne will describe how each planet influences affects the Moon.

The 2nd Saturn Return
An exploration of the second Saturn Return through the lens of personal experience. The context of the first and second Saturn return are so different - some say Saturn ages well as it reflects the wisdom needed to help us discern right alignment and conduct, and the compassion to help us take care of ourselves and each other. Judy will also provide examples of others who have moved through their second Saturn return.

OPA will host its Annual Professional Astrology Retreat March 20-23, 2014 at Ocean Creek Resort, in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. This retreat is designed for the professional development of beginning through advanced students and astrologers.
Whereas most conferences are focused externally, this experience focuses more on you, the subject, rather than the subject matter. As a consequence, you are led to embark on a personal exploration.
There are two main components to the OPA retreat: the large group experience and the small group experience. The large group experience happens with all of us gathering together each morning to listen to speakers and participate in the same forum. The small group experience happens with participants working together under the supervision of a trained leader, in a pre-assigned group of your choice. You will work with a highly skilled astrology professional and a small group of peers for fifteen hours!
Working intensively with a successful professional astrologer will provide an unmatched mentoring experience from which you will receive countless benefits. The connection with peers in your group adds a highly dynamic potency to the work and will enhance your personal confidence and knowledge. At the end of the retreat not only will you have a firm grasp of the material in your track, you will know more about yourself, your strengths and limitations, than you ever did before.
On Saturday evening (March 22) we will celebrate International Astrology Day with a banquet held at the resort. This add on event ($30 pp - not included in conference registration) will be another opportunity to connect with the OPA family of astrologers. Purchase your banquet ticket here.
We invite you to join us at the next retreat for the time of your life. It promises to be a wonderful experience in the serene setting of Ocean Creek Resort near the shores of the Atlantic Ocean in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC. You will have the opportunity to enrich your life, make new friends and apply new skills to your practice right away!

Then I discovered I was ravenous and wanted even more! I'm talking about the Peer Group Supervision experience I had on Saturday, April 10th, in California hosted by the gracious Dvora in her lovely Calabasas home.
Imagine having about five other astrologers listen intently while you tell them about a particularly difficult or puzzling reading you had with a client. A reading that left you feeling uneasy, guilty, puzzled, angry, or worst of all, incompetent and out of your depth. A couple of the astrologers ask you clarifying questions and then you sit back and listen to what each astrologer has to say about your experience. Braced for criticism, what you hear instead is encouragement, empathy, advice, confirmation, laughter. With each word, you feel a place inside you fill up that you didn't even KNOW was empty, and your whole body relaxes.
As with any trip you wonder what it will be like, whom you will meet, awaiting magical moments to unfold. It starts so slow and ends so fast, you are left wondering if you were even there. When you have an amazing time and meet wonderful people, you are ultimately left wanting more. When it is over you will return home and wonder who will remember you? That is when all the smiles that touched your heart come rushing back and you smile and know you are remembered. You then are filled with great appreciation for all the special lives you have touched and shared moments with. You then vow to yourself to make a promise to never let these souls slip away. For the power of astrology has united us in karmic ways unexplainable to those that do not understand us and our ways. We will continue to unite and share in our astrological pursuits for many more lifetimes to come. This was the power of the OPA retreat at Asilomar 2009.

Olympic Women/ What kind of Power?
I have been noticing sports commentary of the Olympic Coverage. The headline for one article is, "Women Offer Greatest Triumphs." In another article, there is a long introduction about Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Treanor with "biological clocks ticking louder than rock music." In a third, there is a long description about Chinese women gymnasts who are "as tiny as charms on a charm bracelet."
Has anyone else been taken by the contradictions in the images of the world's most powerful women in sports?

Stems from the Old German name, Frederika - meaning "peaceful ruler". Women with this name are gorgeous, intelligent, compassionate and are natural leaders who are often imitated and followed.
The eyes of every man in the room were on Ricca, but the women didn't mind because she was such a sweet, caring woman.

United's Under-21s fought out an absorbing 2-2 draw with Arsenal at Moss Lane with all four goals coming inside the first half.
Nick Powell and Jesse Lingard scored for the Reds with Chuba Akpom netting twice for the North Londoners as the two teams put on an entertaining show on a tacky pitch.
A fast-paced opening failed to provide any real goalscoring openings, although Frederic Veseli fired in one dangerous centre and Reece Brown did well to block a Martin Angha cross at the other end. The first goal soon arrived, though, when United were guilty of conceding possession in the left-back area and Thomas Eisfeld's touch allowed Akpom to beat Michele Fornasier before ramming a near-post finish over Ben Amos.
The Reds' response was swift with Adnan Januzaj whipping in a left-wing free-kick after being fouled and Powell nipped in to nod home, even though Lukasz Fabianski got a hand to it. Isaac Hayden had to clear a Tom Thorpe header from a Januzaj corner as the hosts took a grip on proceedings.
On 22 minutes, a wonderful counter-attack strike edged United in front with Ryan Tunnicliffe releasing Powell, who showed great strength and patience to feed Januzaj and the Belgian's clever left-footed pass into the path of Lingard was finished stylishly by the winger.
After Thorpe was unable to convert a Januzaj free-kick, Tunnicliffe was desperately unlucky when his shot clipped the bar after good work by Lingard and Marnick Vermijl. Although the Reds looked in control, Arsenal hit back to level the scores on the half-hour mark. Conor Henderson's swerving shot deceived Amos and Akpom pounced on the rebound to net his second of the night.
Akpom escaped with a handball inside his own box and Serge Gnabry fired wide as the teams went in at the break at 2-2 with Sean McGinty replacing the injured Veseli. Things then became rather scrappy in the second half with both sides showing plenty of tenacity and aggression.
Henderson's free-kick flicked wide off the wall and Powell should have earned a penalty after being flattened inside the box by Sead Hajrovic. There was a scare at the other end when Amos clattered into Akpom as he chased his hat-trick with the keeper picking up a yellow card for catching the striker with his elbow.

Former Friends star Matthew Perry seems to be having a bit of a fire sale. According to several outlets, the actor is getting rid of multiple homes—and each one is more awesome than the other.
Perry recently purchased a new home in the Hollywood Hills for $8.65 million. Located above the Sunset Strip, the 4,000-square-foot house has ocean views, four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. AOL says it even has a $27,000 garage door.
Our favorite part (of course) is the home theater. Featuring seating for nine, those guests can also catch a glimpse of the gorgeous skyline when the screen is retracted and the curtains opened. Other features include multiple flat screens both inside and out, a pool, and at least one crazy flower sculpture.
The new place means that he needs to dump his three other homes: a West Hollywood condo, a mansion in Malibu Beach, and a 4,100-square-foot home in L.A. The latest purchase is the crowning jewel, but his track record shows that Perry is no stranger to having a lot of AV around.
Take a peek through our slideshow at some of the high-tech goodies that Perry has had on his various properties. We need a friend like this one!Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

SAS reserves the right to choose the airline and itinerary for the return journey.3.8 In some countries special rules apply for the taxation of benefits within the framework of bonus programs. These rules are defined by the legislators and apply to bonus programs in general in all airlines, hotel chains, etc. Questions on this issue should be addressed to the national tax authorities. SAS accepts no responsibility for the individual member's tax obligations in connection with these rules. Members intending to earn points for activities paid for by their employer must, in some countries, notify their employer of this in advance. Points earned through business travel cannot be used for private purpose without the employer´s permission. Please note that according to Swedish and Norwegian law, state employees may not make private use of points for flight travel, hotel stays, car rental or other activities that are paid for by their employer. In principle, the same rules apply to Swedish and Norwegian public-sector employees.

For this purpose, information is registered concerning bonus related purchases made by the member during a qualification period. In order to administer EuroBonus points, details of what is purchased with the points are also registered (e.g. flights or hotel stays) as well as the value of the points of such goods or services.

SAS and SAS business partners may send promotional e-mails and SMS to members concerning their products and services. The member can at any time decline digital communication by contacting EuroBonus Membership Service. Email addresses for members less than 18 years of age will be used by SAS only to confirm the services/offers used. Any other direct communication with members less than 18 years of age will take place only by post and will be addressed directly to the legal guardian.4.5 Scandinavian Airlines System Denmark-Norway-Sweden is the legal person responsible for personal information for EuroBonus in accordance with legislation on personal information. Members are entitled to receive information on their personal information stored by SAS. This is made personally in writing to the local EuroBonus Membership Service or via a legal guardian's signed request accompanied by the security code. The member/the legal guardian is also entitled to request that EuroBonus corrects or deletes information that is incorrect or incomplete. The member/legal guardian can also decline to receive direct mails by contacting Membership Service in writing.

SAS communicates changes to applicable rules as soon as possible, including rules on earning and using points and also the consequences for points already earned. Information will take place through at least one EuroBonus communication channel, mainly via the EuroBonus web site. Members/legal guardians must keep themselves informed of applicable rules. SAS will provide information on changes at the member's request.
5.7 The member/guardian can at anytime request, in writing, the termination of the membership.5.8 SAS is entitled to terminate or replace the EuroBonus program with one month's notice. If the EuroBonus program is terminated due to legislation, court orders, orders from public authorities or the like, the EuroBonus program can be terminated immediately without notice and earned points will expire immediately without compensation of any kind.5.9 If a SAS partner declares bankruptcy, or is otherwise unable to fulfil its undertakings towards SAS and EuroBonus members, retroactive claims cannot be made and SAS will determine how and if points for booked but unused bonus trips are transferred back.
6.1 To the extent permissible by local law or regulation these membership conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with Swedish law. SAS and the member submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the general court in Stockholm to resolve any dispute that may arise out of them.6.2 Any provision of these terms and conditions declared void or unenforceable by any competent authority or court shall, to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability, be deemed severable and shall not affect the other provisions remaining which shall continue unaffected.6.3 These membership conditions replace all previous versions.

We're used to seeing Cara Delevingne's funny faces, but Alexa Chung has just revealed a glimpse at some of her sillier expressions. The presenter also shared a photo of herself doing a Carrie Bradshaw as she sat at her Apple Mac in New York City attempting a "Midnight write". But as with most late night, coffee fuelled sessions it looks like the Brit style icon had a little trouble concentrating and decided to turn the web camera on herself instead.
Not only has Cara given us a funny face in her latest Instagram photo, but she's also revealed her funny sneakers (courtesy of Keith Haring and Reebok) and her very messy bedroom. Here was us thinking we'd love to trade places with Georgia May Jagger and share a house with the coolest girl in fashion right now, but we're not sure we could cope with such levels of disorganisation. Looks like Cara needs to invite Mary Poppins round pronto.
We were surprised to see Lindsay Lohan made an appearance on The Late Show with David Letterman yesterday despite her recent troubles. The actress tweeted a photo of herself with the host to whom she revealed that her upcoming rehab stint is "a blessing and not a curse." Another former wayward star, Nicole Richie is also doing the chat show rounds this week, returning from her St Barts holiday for Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Check out the top Instagram pictures of the day in the gallery above...


text: Fantastic dreamy pop! Despite the fact that this one yielded the super-huge hits "Windy" and "Never My Love", the album's also filled with great 60s pop tunes that you've probably never heard before – all as fantastically well-crafted and delicately strung-out as the big hits. The Association were truly one of the greatest 60s pop harmony groups to come out of the LA scene – and even a big hit album like this is the kind of gem that you'd spend years digging through rare vinyl to hope to find! Other titles include "Happiness Is", "On A Quiet Night", "We Love Us", "Reputation", and "Requiem For The Masses". This great expanded mono edition has 10 bonus tracks (!!!): "Autumn Afternoon", "Windy (Mono 45)", "Requiem For The Masses (Mono 45)", "Sometime (Instrumental)", "We Love Us (Instrumental)" and more. © 1996-2014, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Lady Gaga sent the Interweb into a spin when an image of the popstrel wearing a Vera Wang wedding dress appeared on Instagram. Is Gagaloo set to become a bride, we gasped. The answer is yes! Sort of.
The fashion film for killer track You and I has just landed and it sees Lady G and boyfriend Taylor Kinney trussed up as matchy-matchy bride and groom. Aw!
The couple met during the filming of the first You and I video in 2011 so what better way to celebrate their first anniversary than with a faux wedding? One issue: the song was inspired by Gaga's relationship with former boyfriend Lüc Carl. Awks.
The series of fashion films first began in September last year, with each one starring a character from the original music video. This is the fifth and final installment, directed by photographers Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin with Gaga herself as creative director, aka: it's just as stylish as you'd expect.
The fab film opens with the singer whipping her hair back and forth while wearing kinky leather bondage gear and ripped fishnets. So far, so Gaga. But then she's seen looking positively demure and almost Marilyn Monroe-esque in a drapey white wedding dress with a veil and barely-there makeup. Is that really you, Gagz?
But she doesn't stay innocent for long. True to form, LG pulls up her wedding dress to flash a teeny G-string and smooches her hunky lover, who's dressed in a white lab trench coat. Well, what else would you expect from a Gaga wedding?
