2.1 General: These TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall apply to all CARRIAGE of CARGO, including all services incidental thereto, performed by or on behalf of the CARRIER provided, however, that if such CARRIAGE is "International Carriage" as defined in the APPLICABLE CONVENTION such carriage shall be subject to the provisions of the APPLICABLE CONVENTION and conditions of contract printed on the corresponding AIR WAYBILL. In the event of any direct conflict between the terms of the AIR WAYBILL and these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, the AIR WAYBILL shall apply. In the event that an AIR WAYBILL was not issued or, for whatever reason, AIR WAYBILL conditions of contract are not printed thereon or cannot be determined, the IATA AWB TERMS effective at the time of SHIPMENT shall apply. In all other respects, these TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall supplement and shall not be in lieu of the conditions of contract printed on the corresponding AIR WAYBILL. Where the CARRIER permits the issue, completion and/or conclusion of AIR WAYBILLS and/or SHIPMENT RECORDS by electronic means, these TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall similarly apply and be incorporated into the corresponding CARRIAGE of CARGO. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the APPLICABLE CONVENTION shall always apply where applicable.

2.2.2 these TERMS AND CONDITIONS and other applicable tariffs, rules, regulations and timetables, if any (but not the times of departure and arrival therein, specified) of the CARRIER which are available on the CARRIER's website or other common electronic means in use from time to time and which may, where applicable, also be inspected at any of its offices and at airports from which it operates regular services.
2.3 Gratuitous Carriage: To the extent permitted by law with respect to gratuitous CARRIAGE, the CARRIER reserves the right to exclude the application of all or any part of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
2.4 Change Without Notice: These TERMS AND CONDITIONS and the published rates and charges are subject to change without notice, except to the extent otherwise provided by applicable law, government regulation or order provided, however, that no such change shall apply to a contract of CARRIAGE after the date of conclusion of the contract of CARRIAGE, or after the date the rate or charge for the CARRIAGE has been entered in the SHIPMENT RECORD.
2.5 Effective Rules: All CARRIAGE of CARGO governed by these TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall be subject to the CARRIER's rules, regulations and tariffs in effect on the date of the conclusion of the contract of CARRIAGE, provided that in the event of inconsistency between these TERMS AND CONDITIONS and the CARRIER's rules, regulations and tariffs, these TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall prevail.

AND, if CARGO falls under any of the above, then all relevant information must be provided, as requested by the CARRIER.
3.5 Advance Arrangements: In the event that the CARRIER agrees to accept CARGO listed in Article 3.4 (and without any obligation to do so), the SHIPPER shall comply with any advance and other requirements stipulated by the CARRIER from time to time.
3.6 Advance Details: Details to be given in relation to advance arrangements must indicate the nature and characteristics of the goods, place of departure, place of destination, routing and probable date of movement, and shall request advice as to whether or not the consignment will be accepted.
3.7 Cargo Packing And Marking: The SHIPPER is responsible for ensuring that the CARGO is packed in an appropriate way for CARRIAGE so as to ensure that it can be carried safely with ordinary care in handling without the risk of injuring or damaging any persons, goods or property. Each package shall be legibly and durably marked so as to identify the SHIPPER and the CONSIGNEE. CARGO not packed in accordance with IATA/ICAO regulations, or in contravention of any restricted commodity, security, public health or other regulation or procedure, applicable laws or the CARRIER's policies, or with incorrect, uncompleted or inappropriate documentation (including but not limited to customs or equivalent documentation or declarations or other importation or exportation paperwork) or improper packaging may not be carried. The CARRIER reserves the right to refuse the transportation of CARGO that is not suitably packed, marked and/or documented as required by the TERMS AND CONDITIONS, applicable law, or otherwise in a manner inconsistent with the CARRIER's policies, procedures and guidelines issued or published from time to time.
3.8 Conditions Relating To Cargo And Responsibility For Non-Observance: Notwithstanding that the CARRIER may at its sole discretion effect the CARRIAGE of CARGO that is prohibited or subject to additional rules, regulations or requirements, responsibility for non-observance of the conditions relating to the CARRIAGE of CARGO rests upon the SHIPPER who shall indemnify the CARRIER for any loss, damage, delay, liability or penalties the CARRIER may incur because of CARRIAGE of any such CARGO.
3.9 Specific Responsibility For Dangerous Goods: The SHIPPER shall be wholly responsible for compliance with, indemnifies the CARRIER against and holds the CARRIER harmless from all loss and liability arising from the failure to comply with Articles 3.4.1 to 3.7, whether attributable to the SHIPPER, its agent or customer, and which may be incurred by the CARRIER from time to time including, but not limited to, loss, destruction, damage, death, injury, delay, fine, penalty, sanction, cost of disposal, additional transportation costs, fees and expenses, reasonable legal expenses and/or other loss caused, whether directly or indirectly, foreseeable or not, wholly or in part.
3.10 Specific Responsibility For Security: The SHIPPER shall comply with measures necessary for the security screening of CARGO to the extent required by Regulation (EC) 300/2008 and its associated implementation regulations as amended or replaced from time to time or, where the CARRIER is located outside of the European Union, the equivalent imposed in the jurisdiction to which the CARRIER is subject, as anticipated by Annex 17 to the "Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation" of 7 December 1944, and any other applicable regulation to the extent the same is applicable to the CARRIAGE being undertaken, and shall be liable for and indemnify the CARRIER against all consequences of any non-compliance with such regulations.
3.11 Carrier's Inspection Right: The CARRIER reserves the right to examine the packaging and contents of all SHIPMENTS and to enquire into the correctness or sufficiency of information or documents tendered in respect of any SHIPMENT but the CARRIER shall be under no obligation to do so and assumes no liability with regard to such inspection or enquiry.
3.12 Unit Load Devices: When the SHIPPER undertakes to load a unit load device (ULD), the SHIPPER must comply with the CARRIER's loading instructions and shall be liable for and indemnify the CARRIER against the consequences of any non-compliance with such instructions. In the event that the SHIPPER uses or otherwise takes control of the CARRIER's ULD, the SHIPPER shall as a prerequisite execute the CARRIER's standard terms and conditions therefore or, if not executed shall, pursuant to these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, be deemed to have inspected and agreed to the same.
4.ARTICLE 4 - DOCUMENTATION
4.1 Air Waybill: The SHIPPER shall make out or have made out on the SHIPPER's behalf, an AIR WAYBILL in the form, manner and number of copies prescribed by the CARRIER, and shall deliver such AIR WAYBILL to the CARRIER simultaneously with the acceptance of the CARGO by the CARRIER for CARRIAGE. However, charges for CARRIAGE and other charges, insofar as they have been ascertained, shall be inserted in the AIR WAYBILL by the CARRIER. Interline or equivalent arrangements may also be agreed between the CARRIER and a SHIPPER, in which case the terms of such arrangement shall apply to the extent the same are inconsistent with the TERMS AND CONDITIONS, but in all other respects the TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall apply. The CARRIER may require the SHIPPER to make out, or have made out on its behalf, separate AIR WAYBILLS when there is more than one package, if the CARGO cannot be carried in one packing unit in one aircraft, or if the CARGO cannot be carried under a single AIR WAYBILL without violation of government requirements or the CARRIER's rules. The SHIPPER shall always use the latest version of the AIR WAYBILL as notified by the CARRIER.
4.2 Shipment Record: The SHIPPER shall use a SHIPMENT RECORD to establish the contract of CARRIAGE in accordance with the CARRIER's regulations, unless an AIR WAYBILL is used due to the requirements of applicable international treaties, national law (including origin, destination or transfer point local regulations), or as bilaterally agreed between the CARRIER and the SHIPPER. When a SHIPMENT RECORD is used, the CARRIER shall, if requested by the SHIPPER, deliver to the SHIPPER a receipt for the CARGO permitting identification of the SHIPMENT and
access to the information contained in the SHIPMENT RECORD, in each case in accordance with the CARRIER's regulations.
4.3 Additional Support: The CARRIER may request and in that case the SHIPPER and/or destination freight forwarder and/or CONSIGNEE, as the case may be, will promptly provide any additional documentation required in relation to a SHIPMENT, including but not limited to statements, warranties, representations or indemnities pertaining to the acceptance of obligations as "Shipper of Record", the appointment of the CARRIER or its representatives as the SHIPPER's representative, agent or otherwise, in relation to the importation, export, customs formalities, dangerous goods, security, sanctions, public health or sanctions compliance, or related requirements and formalities pertaining to the CARRIAGE or the SHIPMENT.
4.4 Apparent Condition / Packing Of The Cargo: If the apparent order and condition of the CARGO and/or packing is in any way defective or deficient, the SHIPPER shall insert in the SHIPMENT RECORD, or advise the CARRIER for the insertion in the SHIPMENT RECORD, or if an AIR WAYBILL is delivered, include on the AIR WAYBILL, a statement of such apparent order and condition. However, if the SHIPPER fails to insert such a statement in the SHIPMENT RECORD, or to advise the CARRIER for insertion in the SHIPMENT RECORD of the apparent order and condition of the CARGO, or fails to include such statement in the AIR WAYBILL, or if such statement or advice is incorrect, the CARRIER may insert in the SHIPMENT RECORD, or include in the AIR WAYBILL a statement of the apparent order and condition of the CARGO, or note a correction thereto.
4.5 Preparation, Completion Or Correction By Carrier: The CARRIER may at the request of the SHIPPER, whether expressed or implied, insert into the SHIPMENT RECORD particulars and statements relating to the CARGO furnished by or on behalf of the SHIPPER to the CARRIER or make out the AIR WAYBILL, in which event, subject to proof to the contrary, the CARRIER shall be deemed to have done so on behalf of the SHIPPER. If the particulars and statements relating to the CARGO furnished by or on behalf of the SHIPPER to the CARRIER for insertion in the SHIPMENT RECORD, or the AIR WAYBILL handed over with the CARGO, do not contain all the required particulars, or if such particulars or statements contain any error, the CARRIER is authorized to complete or correct the particulars or statements to the best of the CARRIER's ability without being under any obligation to do so. Although not required to do so, the CARRIER may request specific authorisation from the SHIPPER in relation to the same, and may charge a fee to the SHIPPER for the correction or completion of such SHIPMENT RECORD or AIR WAYBILL as a consequence.
4.6 Responsibility For Particulars: The SHIPPER is responsible for the correctness of the particulars and statements relating to the CARGO inserted by or on behalf of the SHIPPER in the AIR WAYBILL, or furnished by or on behalf of the SHIPPER to the CARRIER, for insertion in the SHIPMENT RECORD. Where such information is provided by means of "Electronic Data Interchange" ("EDI"), it is the responsibility of the SHIPPER or the SHIPPER's agent to verify the contents, accuracy and completeness of the EDI and subsequent messages according to the agreed standards and specifications.
4.7 Alterations: AIR WAYBILLs, the writing on which has been altered or erased, need not be accepted by the CARRIER. If accepted by the CARRIER, the CARRIER will be under no liability arising from, or in respect of, such alterations or erasures. In the event that the CARRIER corrects, amends, supplements or otherwise modifies documentation accompanying a SHIPMENT or any deficiency affecting a SHIPMENT or its packaging in accordance with this Article 4, the CARRIER is deemed to have been authorised to do so by the SHIPPER on the SHIPPER's behalf. Although not required to do so, the CARRIER may request specific authorisation from the SHIPPER in relation to the same. The CARRIER shall have no liability to the SHIPPER or any other party arising out of, and the SHIPPER shall indemnify the CARRIER against all damage suffered by the CARRIER or by any other person to whom the CARRIER is liable, by reason of the CARRIER acting on behalf of the SHIPPER or due to any irregularity, incorrectness or incompleteness of the particulars and statements furnished by the SHIPPER or on its behalf.
5.ARTICLE 5 - RATES AND CHARGES
5.1 Applicable Rates And Charges: Rates and charges for CARRIAGE governed by these TERMS AND CONDITIONS are those agreed with the SHIPPER or otherwise duly published by the CARRIER and in effect on the date the contract of CARRIAGE has been concluded.
5.2 Rates And Charges Basis: Rates and charges will be based on the units of measurement agreed or otherwise subject to the rules and conditions published in the CARRIER's regulations and rate tariffs.
5.3 Rates And Charges Services Not Included: Except as otherwise provided in the CARRIER's regulations, rates and charges apply only from airport to airport and do not include any ancillary service given by the CARRIER in connection with the air CARRIAGE.
5.4 Rates And Charges Payment: Rates and charges are agreed or otherwise published in the currency shown in the applicable rate tariffs, and may be paid in any currency acceptable to the CARRIER. When payment is made in a currency other than in the currency in which the rate or charge is published, such payment will be made at the rate of exchange established for such purpose by the CARRIER. The provisions of this Article are subject to applicable exchange laws and government regulations.
5.5 Liability To Pay Charges: Full applicable charges, whether prepaid or collect (if collect is expressly agreed by the CARRIER pursuant to Article 5.8), fees, duties, taxes, charges, advances and payments made or incurred or to be incurred by the CARRIER, and any other sums payable to the CARRIER, will be deemed fully earned whether or not the CARGO is lost or damaged or fails to arrive at the destination specified in the contract of CARRIAGE. All such charges, sums and advances will be due and payable upon receipt of the CARGO by the CARRIER, except that they may be collected by the CARRIER at any stage of the service performed under the contract of CARRIAGE and may be collected at any time upon demand of the CARRIER. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, any dispute regarding an invoice or part thereof shall not affect the SHIPPER's obligation to pay the invoice or other statement of account issued by the CARRIER through a payment system established for that purpose that the CARRIER and the SHIPPER have agreed to utilise, in full, pending resolution of the dispute. The CARRIER shall have the right at its sole and absolute discretion to apply any payments made by the SHIPPER to any outstanding invoices in the order it sees fit. The CARRIER's invoice shall be deemed correct and irrevocably accepted by the SHIPPER unless the SHIPPER has notified the CARRIER in writing within thirty (30) DAYS from the date of the invoice in dispute. Such notification shall include the relevant invoice number, the amount and full details of the reason for the dispute.
5.6 Ancillary Charges: The SHIPPER guarantees payment of the freight rate together with all storage charges, unpaid CHARGES COLLECT (if collect is expressly agreed by the CARRIER pursuant to Article 5.8) advances and disbursements and other charges of the CARRIER it is entitled to levy and which are invoiced pursuant to Article 5.5. The SHIPPER also guarantees payment of all costs, expenditures, fines, penalties, loss of time, damage and other sums which the CARRIER may incur or suffer by reason of the inclusion in the SHIPMENT of articles the CARRIAGE of which is prohibited by Article 3.4 and where no special arrangement has been made and complied with, which is prohibited by law, or the illegal, incorrect or insufficient marking, numbering, addressing or packing of packages or descriptions of the CARGO, or the absence, delay or incorrectness of any export or import licence or any required certificate or document, or any improper customs valuation, or incorrect statement of weight or volume or otherwise by virtue of Article 3.9. The CARRIER shall have a lien on the CARGO for each of the foregoing and, in the event of non-payment thereof, shall have the right to dispose of the CARGO at public or private sale (provided that prior to such sale the CARRIER shall have mailed notice thereof to the SHIPPER or to the CONSIGNEE at the address stated in the AIR WAYBILL) and to pay itself and any ancillary charges, including the cost of recovery, return delivery, making available for collection, and SHIPMENT or disposal of any prohibited or restricted item detected by the CARRIER or its agents, incurred as a consequence of the exercise of such right, out of the proceeds of sale any and all such amounts. No such sale shall, however, discharge any liability to pay any deficiencies, for which the SHIPPER and the CONSIGNEE shall remain jointly and severally liable. By taking delivery or exercising any other right arising from the contract of CARRIAGE, the CONSIGNEE agrees to pay such charges, sums and advances, except prepaid charges.
5.7 Incorrect Weight Etc.: If the gross weight, measurement, quantity or declared value of the CARGO exceeds the gross weight, measurement, quantity or declared value on which charges for CARRIAGE have been previously computed, the CARRIER shall be entitled to require payment of the charge on such excess.
5.8 Charges Collect: CHARGES COLLECT SHIPMENTS will not be accepted. The CARRIER shall not be required to accept bookings for or carry CHARGES COLLECT consignments or SHIPMENTS unless:
5.8.1 within the country or jurisdiction in which the AIR WAYBILL was made available or sold, an applicable tariff has been published by the CARRIER dealing specifically with the sale of CHARGES COLLECT consignments, or in other locations where it gives its express prior written consent in other than standard form documentation and prior arrangements have been expressly agreed, and then only on terms as CARRIER shall specify from time to time; and
5.8.2 regulations permit the conversions of funds into other currencies or the transfer of funds to other countries, in which event the CARRIER nevertheless reserves the right to refuse SHIPMENTS on a CHARGES COLLECT basis.
5.9 Payment Date: Unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing, all charges applicable to a SHIPMENT are payable in cash at the time of acceptance thereof by the CARRIER in the case of a prepaid SHIPMENT, i.e. a SHIPMENT on which the charges are to be paid by the SHIPPER, or at the time of delivery thereof by the CARRIER in the case of a CHARGES COLLECT SHIPMENT, i.e. a SHIPMENT on which the charges are to be paid by the CONSIGNEE.
5.10 Shipment Cancellation: The CARRIER may cancel the CARRIAGE of the SHIPMENT upon refusal by the SHIPPER, after demand by the CARRIER, to pay the charges or portion thereof so demanded, without the CARRIER being subject to any liability therefore.
6.ARTICLE 6 - SHIPMENTS IN COURSE OF CARRIAGE
6.1 Compliance With Government Requirements: The SHIPPER represents and warrants that it is not controlled by a party subject to applicable sanctions legislation, and that it shall comply with all applicable laws, customs and other government regulations of any country to, from, through or over which the CARGO may be carried, including those
relating to packing, CARRIAGE or delivery of the CARGO and shall, together with the SHIPMENT, furnish true and accurate information and deliver such documents as may be necessary to comply with such laws and regulations. The SHIPPER will be solely liable for obtaining any licenses or approvals required by the U.N., the EU, the U.S. Government or any other competent authority prior to SHIPMENT. The SHIPPER will provide the CARRIER with the details of applicable licenses or approvals, including copies thereof as may be requested, and inform the CARRIER of any license or approval conditions and routing restrictions that apply to the SHIPMENT. The SHIPPER shall also ensure that no SHIPMENT is consigned to any person or entity listed on the "EU Consolidated List", or the "U.S. Specially Designated Nationals List" administered by the United States Office of Foreign Assets Controls, or any other applicable list of sanctioned or debarred parties issued by national or international authorities. The CARRIER shall not be obliged to inquire into the correctness or sufficiency of such information or documents, but SHIPPER may not refuse to furnish any such information or documents if required by the CARRIER including, but not limited to, further information relating to the identity of both the SHIPPER and the CONSIGNEE (including its or their respective shareholders, affiliates or parent companies or participants, and/or other persons exercising effective control). The CARRIER shall not be liable to the SHIPPER or any other person for loss or expense due to the SHIPPER's failure and the SHIPPER shall be liable to the CARRIER for any damage occasioned by the failure of the SHIPPER to comply with this provision. The CARRIER shall not be liable for refusing to carry any SHIPMENT if the CARRIER reasonably determines in good faith that the information available to it is not sufficient for it to be able to determine whether it would or would not be in breach of applicable law upon accepting any SHIPMENT or transporting the CARGO, or if such refusal is otherwise required by any applicable law, government regulation, demand, order or requirement.
6.2 Disbursements And Customs Formalities: The CARRIER is authorized (but shall be under no obligation) to advance any duties, taxes or charges and to make any disbursement with respect to the CARGO, the SHIPPER or the CONSIGNEE and, by taking delivery or exercising any other right arising out of the contract for CARRIAGE, the CONSIGNEE, shall be jointly and severally liable for the reimbursement thereof. No CARRIER shall be under obligation to incur any expense or make any advance in connection with the forwarding or re-forwarding of the CARGO except against prepayment by the SHIPPER. If it is necessary to make customs entry of the CARGO at any stopping place, and no customs clearance agent has been named on the face of the AIR WAYBILL or in the SHIPMENT RECORD, the CARGO shall be deemed to be consigned to the CARRIER carrying the CARGO to such place. For such purpose a copy of the AIR WAYBILL, or of the SHIPMENT RECORD, certified by the CARRIER, shall be deemed original.
6.3 Customs Procedure: A SHIPMENT crossing national borders must be cleared through customs in the destination country prior to delivery to the CONSIGNEE. In addition to the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD it is the SHIPPER's responsibility to ensure that all necessary documentation is provided and accurately completed in compliance with all applicable customs, import and export laws and government regulation. Such documentation must be issued prior to CARRIAGE and presented by the SHIPPER to the CARRIER. The CARRIER reserves the right to request and receive all customs documentation (including but not limited to import release note/tax assessment, transit documentation, etc.) from the SHIPPER and/or destination freight forwarder. In the event of any failure to provide and/or complete accurately all such documentation (including the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD, import release note/tax assessment, transit documentation, etc.) the CARRIER will assume no liability to the SHIPPER or any other person for any loss, expense or delay due to the SHIPPER's failure to comply with this provision.
6.4 Customs Hold: When SHIPMENTS are held by customs or other agencies due to incorrect or missing documentation, the CARRIER may first attempt to notify the CONSIGNEE. If local law requires the correct information or documentation to be submitted by the CONSIGNEE and the CONSIGNEE fails to do so within such reasonable time as the CARRIER may determine, the SHIPMENT may be considered undeliverable (see Article 8.4 "CONSIGNEE FAILURE TO TAKE DELIVERY"). If the CONSIGNEE fails to supply the required information or documentation and local law allows the SHIPPER to provide the same, the CARRIER may attempt to notify the SHIPPER. If the SHIPPER also fails to provide the information or documentation within such reasonable time as the CARRIER may determine, the SHIPMENT will be considered undeliverable. The CARRIER assumes no responsibility for its inability to complete a delivery due to incorrect or missing documentation, whether or not it attempts to notify the CONSIGNEE or the SHIPPER. The CARRIER shall be entitled to charge an administrative fee for obtaining such corrective or complete information. In the event a SHIPMENT is not cleared through customs in the destination country prior to delivery to the CONSIGNEE, the SHIPPER and/or destination freight forwarder and/or CONSIGNEE shall provide proof to the CARRIER that the SHIPMENT is under customs control from its origin and the CARRIER reserves the right to receive all customs documentation (including but not limited to import release note/tax assessment, transit documentation, etc) upon request to the SHIPPER and/or destination freight forwarder and/or CONSIGNEE. The CARRIER shall not be liable for any delay in delivery or the CARRIER's inability or failure to complete a delivery due to acts or omissions of customs or other regulatory agencies.
6.5 Schedules, Routings And Cancellations: Unless specifically agreed otherwise and to the extent indicated in the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD, the CARRIER undertakes to carry the CARGO with reasonable despatch but assumes no obligation to carry the CARGO by any specified aircraft, using any specific mode of transport for all or part of the transportation, or over any particular route or routes, or to make connections at any point according to any particular schedule. Times shown in the CARRIER's timetables or elsewhere are approximate and not guaranteed and form no part of the contract of CARRIAGE. No time is fixed for commencement or completion of
CARRIAGE or delivery of CARGO. The CARRIER is hereby authorised to select or deviate from the route or routes of the SHIPMENT, notwithstanding that the same may be stated on the face of the AIR WAYBILL or in the SHIPMENT RECORD. The CARRIER is not responsible for errors or omissions either in timetables or other representations of schedules. No employee, agent or representative of the CARRIER is authorized to bind the CARRIER by any statements or representations of the dates or times of departure of arrival, or of operation of any flight.
6.6 Other Means, Postponement, Termination And Delay: The CARRIER is authorized to carry the consignment without notice wholly or partly by any other means of transportation or to arrange such CARRIAGE. If it considers that it would be advisable to do so because of any fact beyond its control or not reasonably to be foreseen, anticipated, or predicted at the time the CARGO was accepted, or if it reasonably considers that other circumstances so require, taking into account the interests of the SHIPPER, the CARRIER reserves the right, without notice, to cancel, terminate, divert, postpone, delay, or advance any flight, or the further CARRIAGE of any CARGO, or to proceed with any flight without all or any part of the CARGO. Provided that no regulations/laws to the contrary are applicable, in the event any flight is, pursuant to this Article, cancelled, diverted, postponed, delayed or advanced or is terminated at a place other than the place of destination or in the event the CARRIAGE of any SHIPMENT is so cancelled, diverted, postponed, delayed, advanced or terminated, the CARRIER shall only be liable for its own gross negligence and wilful misconduct. In the event the CARRIAGE of the SHIPMENT or any part thereof is so terminated, delivery thereof by the CARRIER to any transfer agent for transfer or delivery or the placing of such SHIPMENT in storage shall be deemed complete delivery under the contract of CARRIAGE, and the CARRIER shall be without any further liability with respect thereto, except to give notice or the disposition of the SHIPMENT to the SHIPPER or to the CONSIGNEE, at the address stated in the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD. The CARRIER may, but shall not be obligated, to forward the SHIPMENT for CARRIAGE by any other route or forward the SHIPMENT as agent for the SHIPPER or the CONSIGNEE for onward CARRIAGE by any transportation service on behalf of the SHIPPER or the CONSIGNEE. The cost of doing so attaches to the CARGO.
6.7 Cargo Priority: Unless otherwise agreed, and subject to applicable laws, regulations and orders, the CARRIER is authorised to determine the priority of CARRIAGE as between SHIPMENTS, and as between CARGO and mail or passengers. The CARRIER may likewise decide to remove any articles from a SHIPMENT, at any time or place whatsoever, and to proceed with the flight without them. If as a result of determining such priority, CARGO is not carried or CARRIAGE thereof is postponed or delayed or if any articles are removed from a SHIPMENT, the CARRIER will not be liable to the SHIPPER or the CONSIGNEE or to any other party for any consequences therefore.
6.8 Certain Rights Of Carrier Over Shipment In Course Of Carriage: If in the opinion of the CARRIER it is necessary to hold the SHIPMENT at any place for any reasonable purpose, either before, during or after CARRIAGE, the CARRIER may, upon giving notice thereof to the SHIPPER, store the SHIPMENT for the account and at the risk and expense of the SHIPPER, in any warehouse or other available place, or with the customs authorities, or the CARRIER may deliver the SHIPMENT to another transportation service for onward CARRIAGE to the CONSIGNEE. The SHIPPER shall indemnify the CARRIER against any expense or risk so incurred.
7.ARTICLE 7 - SHIPPER'S RIGHT OF DISPOSITION
7.1 Right Of Disposition Exercise: Every exercise of the right of disposition must be made by the SHIPPER or its designated agent, if any, and must be applicable to the whole SHIPMENT under a single AIR WAYBILL, or under a single SHIPMENT RECORD. The right of disposition over the CARGO may only be exercised if the SHIPPER or such agent produces the part of the AIR WAYBILL which was delivered to him, or communicates such other form of authority as may be prescribed by the CARRIER. Instructions as to disposition must be given in writing in the form prescribed by the CARRIER. In the event that the exercise of the right of disposition results in a change in the CONSIGNEE, such new CONSIGNEE shall be deemed to be the CONSIGNEE appearing on the AIR WAYBILL or in the SHIPMENT RECORD.
7.2 Shipper's Option: To the extent permitted by law and APPLICABLE CONVENTION, and subject to the SHIPPER's liability to carry out all the SHIPPER's obligations under the contract of CARRIAGE, and provided that this right of disposition is not exercised in such a way as to prejudice the CARRIER or another SHIPPER's, or the CONSIGNEE's right to delivery, the SHIPPER may at its own expense dispose of the CARGO either:
7.2.1 by withdrawing it at the airport of departure;
7.2.2 by stopping it in the course of the journey on any landing;
7.2.3 by calling for it in course of the journey to be delivered at the place of destination to a person other than the CONSIGNEE named in the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD; or
7.2.4 by requiring it to be returned to the airport of departure;
Provided that if, in the opinion of the CARRIER, it is not reasonably practicable to carry out the order of the SHIPPER, the CARRIER shall promptly inform the SHIPPER and the CARRIER shall thenceforth be under no obligation to carry out any such order.
7.3 Expense Payment: The SHIPPER shall be liable for and shall indemnify the CARRIER for all loss or damage suffered or incurred by the CARRIER as a result of the exercise of the CARRIER's right of disposition. The SHIPPER shall reimburse the CARRIER for any expenses occasioned by the exercise of the CARRIER's right of disposition.
7.4 Extent Of Shipper's Right: Provided that no regulations to the contrary are applicable, the SHIPPER's right of disposition shall cease at the moment when, after arrival of the CARGO at the destination, the CONSIGNEE takes possession or requests delivery of the CARGO or AIR WAYBILL, or otherwise shows its acceptance of the CARGO. Nevertheless, if the CONSIGNEE declines to accept the AIR WAYBILL or the CARGO, or if the CONSIGNEE cannot be communicated with, such right of disposition shall continue to vest in the SHIPPER.
8.ARTICLE 8 - DELIVERY
8.1 Arrival Notice: Notice of arrival of the SHIPMENT will, in the absence of other instructions, be sent to the CONSIGNEE and any other person whom the CARRIER has agreed to notify as evidenced in the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD; such notice will be sent by ordinary methods. The CARRIER is not liable for non-receipt or delay in receipt of such notice.
8.2 Shipment Delivery: Except as otherwise specifically provided in the AIR WAYBILL or SHIPMENT RECORD, delivery of the SHIPMENT will be made only to the CONSIGNEE named therein, or the CONSIGNEE's agent. Delivery to the CONSIGNEE shall be deemed to have been effected and any potential liability of CARRIER shall be deemed to have ended:
8.2.1 when the CARRIER has delivered to the CONSIGNEE or the CONSIGNEE's agent, such authorization from the CARRIER as is required to enable the CONSIGNEE to obtain release of the SHIPMENT; or
8.2.2 when the SHIPMENT has been delivered to customs or other government authorities, as required by applicable law or customs regulation.
8.3 Delivery Place: Except as provided in Article 9.3, the CONSIGNEE must accept delivery of and collect the SHIPMENT at the airport of destination or the respective facility designated by the CARRIER.
8.4 Consignee Failure To Take Delivery: Subject to the provisions of Article 8.5, if the CONSIGNEE refuses or fails to take delivery of the SHIPMENT after its arrival at the airport of destination, or if the SHIPMENT fails to clear customs, the CARRIER will endeavour to comply with the instructions of the SHIPPER set forth on the face of the AIR WAYBILL, or in the SHIPMENT RECORD, subject to any local regulatory constraints. If such instructions are not so set forth or cannot reasonably be complied with, the CARRIER shall notify the SHIPPER of the CONSIGNEE's failure to take delivery, or failure of the SHIPMENT to clear customs, and request the SHIPPER's instructions. If no such instructions are received within thirty (30) DAYS, the CARRIER may sell the SHIPMENT in one or more lots at public or private sale, place the SHIPMENT in a general order warehouse or customs-bonded warehouse, or destroy or abandon such SHIPMENT. The SHIPPER is liable for all charges and expenses resulting from or in connection with the failure to take delivery of the SHIPMENT, or failure of the SHIPMENT to clear customs, including, but not limited to, storage charges and CARRIAGE charges incurred in returning the SHIPMENT if so required by the SHIPPER's instructions. If the SHIPMENT is returned to the airport of departure and the SHIPPER refuses or neglects to make such payments within fifteen (15) DAYS after such return, the CARRIER may dispose of the SHIPMENT or any part thereof at public or private sale after giving the SHIPPER ten (10) DAYS notice of its intention to do so. A sale of any SHIPMENT shall, however, not discharge the SHIPPER and/or owner of any liability hereunder to pay any deficiencies.
8.5 Disposal Of Perishables: When a SHIPMENT containing perishable articles in the possession of the CARRIER is delayed, unclaimed or refused at place of delivery, or for other reason is threatened with deterioration, the CARRIER may immediately take such steps as it sees fit for the protection of itself and other parties in interest, including but not limited to the destruction or abandonment of all or any part of the SHIPMENT, the sending of communications for instructions at the cost of the SHIPPER, the storage of the SHIPMENT or any part thereof at the risk and cost of the SHIPPER, or the disposition of the SHIPMENT or any part thereof at public or private sale without notice. In the event of the sale of the SHIPMENT as provided for above, either at the place of destination or at the place to which the SHIPMENT has been returned, the CARRIER is authorized to pay to itself and other transportation services out of the proceeds of such sale all charges, advances, and expenses of the CARRIER and other transportation services plus costs of sale, holding any surplus subject to the order of the SHIPPER. A sale of any SHIPMENT shall, however not discharge the SHIPPER and/or owner of any liability hereunder to pay any deficiencies.
8.6 Responsibility For Charges: By accepting delivery of the SHIPMENT the CONSIGNEE shall become liable for the payment of all costs and charges in connection with the CARRIAGE. Unless otherwise agreed, the SHIPPER shall not be released from the SHIPPER's own liability for such costs and charges and will remain jointly and severally liable with the CONSIGNEE. The CARRIER may make delivery of the SHIPMENT or the AIR WAYBILL conditional upon payment of such costs and charges.
9.ARTICLE 9 - PICK-UP AND DELIVERY SERVICES
9.1 Shipments: SHIPMENTS are accepted for CARRIAGE from their receipt at the CARRIER's CARGO terminal or airport office at the place of departure to the airport at the place of destination or the respective facility as designated by the CARRIER.
9.2 Service Availability: A PICK-UP SERVICE and DELIVERY SERVICE may be available, to the extent and subject to the rates and charges established for such services in accordance with the applicable regulations published by the CARRIER.
9.3 Service Request: PICK-UP SERVICE, if available, will be provided when requested by the SHIPPER. Except when otherwise provided by the CARRIER's tariffs, DELIVERY SERVICE may be provided unless contrary instructions are given by the SHIPPER or by the CONSIGNEE. Such contrary instructions must be received by the CARRIER prior to removal of the SHIPMENT from the CARRIER's airport terminal at destination.
9.4 Shipment For Which Service Is Unavailable: PICK-UP SERVICE and DELIVERY SERVICE will not be provided by the CARRIER without special arrangement for any SHIPMENT which, in the opinion of the CARRIER, because of its volume, nature, value or weight is impractical for the CARRIER to handle in the normal course.
9.5 Liability: If a PICK-UP SERVICE or DELIVERY SERVICE is performed by or on behalf of the CARRIER, such transportation shall be upon the same terms as to liability as set forth in Article 10, unless otherwise provided by mandatory regulations.
10.ARTICLE 10 - CARRIER'S LIABILITY
10.1 Time Of Damage: The CARRIER is liable to the SHIPPER, the CONSIGNEE or any other person for damage sustained in the event of destruction or loss of, or damage to, or delay in the CARRIAGE of CARGO only if the occurrence which caused the damage so sustained took place during the CARRIAGE as defined under Article 1.
10.2 Limitation: To the extent provided by APPLICABLE CONVENTION, the CARRIER's liability shall be limited to the amount stipulated in such APPLICABLE CONVENTION, notwithstanding the existence of gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the CARRIER.
10.3 Liability: Except as may be otherwise provided for in any APPLICABLE CONVENTION, the CARRIER is not liable to the SHIPPER, the CONSIGNEE or any other person for any damage, delay or loss of whatsoever nature arising out of or in connection with the CARRIAGE of CARGO or other services performed by the CARRIER or its AGENTS, unless such damage, delay or loss is proved to have been caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the CARRIER.
10.4 Inherent Vice: The CARRIER is not liable if the destruction, loss of or damage to CARGO is proved to have resulted solely from the inherent defect, quality, nature or vice of that CARGO and/or as a result of SHIPPER's negligent act or omission or failure to comply with a SHIPPER's obligation.
10.5 Animals: If the CARRIER agrees to carry animals, it will not be liable for any loss, damage or expense arising from death due to natural causes, or death or injury of any animal or person (including but not limited to the animal attendant or keeper) caused by the conduct or acts of the animal itself or of other animals such as biting, kicking, goring or smothering, nor for that caused or contributed to by the condition, nature or propensities of the animal, or by defective packing of the animal, or by the inability of the animal to withstand unavoidable changes in its physical environment inherent in the CARRIAGE.
10.6 Consequential Loss: To the extent not in conflict with applicable law, the CARRIER shall not be liable in any event for any consequential loss or damage arising from CARRIAGE subject to these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, whether or not the CARRIER had knowledge that such loss or damage might be incurred.
10.7 Contributory Negligence: Contributory negligence on the part of the SHIPPER, the CONSIGNEE or other claimants releases the CARRIER of its liability to the extent provided by APPLICABLE CONVENTION and applicable law.
10.8 Liability Amounts: For CARRIAGE to which the Montreal Convention of 1999 does not apply, the CARRIER's liability limitation for CARGO destroyed, lost, damaged, or delayed shall be 22 SDRs per kilogram unless a greater per kilogram monetary limit is provided in any other relevant APPLICABLE CONVENTION. If, with the agreement of the CARRIER, the SHIPPER has made a special declaration of value for CARRIAGE and has paid the supplementary sum applicable, it is agreed that any liability shall in no event exceed such declared value for CARRIAGE stated on the face of the AIR WAYBILL or included in the SHIPMENT RECORD. All claims shall be subject to proof of value.
10.9 Weight Calculation: In the case of loss, damage or delay of part of the SHIPMENT, or of any object contained therein, the weight to be taken into consideration in determining the amount to which the CARRIER's liability is limited shall be only the weight of the package or packages concerned. In the absence of proof to the contrary, the value of any such part of the SHIPMENT lost, damaged or delayed as the case may be, shall be determined by reducing the total
value of the SHIPMENT in the proportion that the weight of that part of the SHIPMENT lost, damaged or delayed has to the total weight of the SHIPMENT.
10.10 Foreign Air Transportation: Notwithstanding any other provisions and to the extent to which the same is applicable, for "foreign air transportation" as defined by the "U.S. Transportation Code":
10.10.1 in the case of loss of, damage or delay to a SHIPMENT, the weight to be used in determining the CARRIER's limit of liability shall be the weight which is used to determine the charge for CARRIAGE of such SHIPMENT; and
10.10.2 in the case of loss of, damage or delay to a part of a SHIPMENT, the SHIPMENT weight in Article 10.10.1 shall be prorated to the packages covered by the same AIR WAYBILL whose value is affected by the loss, damage or delay. The weight applicable in the case of loss or damage to one or more articles in a package shall be the weight of the entire package.
10.11 Shipper Damage To Other Cargo: The SHIPPER, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the owner and the CONSIGNEE whose property or SHIPMENT causes damage to or destruction of another SHIPMENT or of the property of the CARRIER, shall indemnify the CARRIER for all losses and expenses incurred by the CARRIER as a result thereof. CARGO which, because of inherent defect, quality or vice or because of defective packing, is likely to endanger aircraft, persons or property may be abandoned or destroyed by the CARRIER at any time without notice and without liability therefore attaching to the CARRIER.
10.12 Third Party Air Waybill: A CARRIER issuing an AIR WAYBILL for CARRIAGE over the lines of another CARRIER does so only as agent for such other CARRIER. Any reference in a SHIPMENT RECORD to CARRIAGE to be performed by another CARRIER shall be deemed to refer to CARRIAGE to be provided as principal by such other CARRIER. No CARRIER shall be liable for the loss, damage or delay of CARGO not occurring on its own line except that the SHIPPER shall have a right of action for such loss, damage or delay on the terms herein provided against the first CARRIER and the CONSIGNEE or other person entitled to delivery shall have such a right of action against the last CARRIER under the contract of CARRIAGE.
10.13 Agents Etc.: Whenever the liability of the CARRIER is excluded or limited under these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, such exclusion or limitation shall apply to agents, servants or representatives of the CARRIER and also to any CARRIER whose aircraft or other means of transportation is used for CARRIAGE.
10.14 Force Majeure: Unless otherwise provided for by the APPLICABLE CONVENTION or any other applicable law to the benefit of the SHIPPER or the CONSIGNEE, the following shall apply:
10.14.1 SHIPMENTS exposed to deterioration or decay due to change of climate, temperature, height or for any other usual circumstance or due to the duration of the agreed CARRIAGE time are only accepted by the CARRIER on the basis that it has no liability for loss or damage caused by deterioration or decay;
10.14.2 the CARRIER shall be not liable if the destruction, loss or damage of CARGO was caused by:
(a)insufficient and/or defective packaging of CARGO performed by any person other than the CARRIER or its servants or agents; and/or
(b)an act of war (including terrorist acts) or an armed conflict; and/or
(c)an act of public authority carried out in connection with the entry, exit or transit of the CARGO; and/or
(d)force majeure, in particular acts of God, any riot, civil commotion, strike, lockout, fire, war, epidemic, pandemic, act of foreign enemies, or any event beyond the reasonable control of the CARRIER.
11.ARTICLE 11 - LIMITATIONS ON CLAIMS AND ACTIONS
11.1 Good Receipt: Receipt by the person entitled to delivery of the CARGO without complaint is prima facie evidence that the same has been delivered in good condition and in accordance with the contract of CARRIAGE.
11.2 Complaint Notification: No action shall be taken in the case of loss or damage to goods unless a complaint is made in writing by the person entitled to delivery, to the CARRIER. Such complaint shall be made:
11.2.1 in the case of visible damage to or partial loss of the goods, immediately after its discovery and at the latest within fourteen (14) DAYS from the date of receipt of the goods;
11.2.2 in the case of other damage to the goods, within fourteen (14) DAYS from the date of receipt of the goods;
11.2.3 in the case of delay, within twenty-one (21) DAYS from the date on which the goods were placed at the disposal of the person entitled to delivery; or
11.2.4 in the case of non-delivery of the goods, within one hundred and twenty (120) DAYS of the date the goods ought to have arrived at the destination.
11.3 Time Limitation: The right to damages shall be extinguished if an action is not brought within two (2) years, reckoned from the date of arrival at the destination, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived, or from the date on which the transportation stopped. The method of calculating that period shall be determined by the law of the court seized of the case.
12.ARTICLE 12 – DATA PROTECTION
12.1 Data Protection Status: The CARRIER and the SHIPPER acknowledge that within the meaning of the applicable data protection law, both are independent controllers (and no joint controllership exists) of the personal data provided to the CARRIER by the SHIPPER in performance of CARRIAGE of the SHIPMENT. The CARRIER and the SHIPPER in their capacity as data controllers are responsible for compliance with current and future applicable mandatory data protection laws, regulations and rules in relation to the processing of personal data.
12.2 Data From Shipper: The SHIPPER will be responsible for supplying the CARRIER with complete up-to-date data in relation to each SHIPMENT, including the name, address, email and phone number of the CONSIGNEE to whom SHIPMENTS are to be transported.
12.3 Data Compliance: In relation to any additional personal data provided by the SHIPPER in connection with a SHIPMENT, the SHIPPER will be responsible for compliance with applicable data protection laws and regulations, including obtaining and maintaining the appropriate legal status and basis required in relation to the provision of such data to the CARRIER and its AGENTS, and the processing by the CARRIER and its AGENTS of such data. The SHIPPER will provide the relevant data subjects with all information in connection with the collection, transfer and processing of such data, including:
12.3.1 the identity of the CARRIER as a data controller;
12.3.2 the purpose of the processing;
12.3.3 the categories of personal data which the SHIPPER will provide to the CARRIER;
12.3.4 the correct legal basis as stipulated by data protection laws;
12.3.5 confirmation that personal data will be passed to the CARRIER in relation to the performance of the SHIPMENT according to applicable data protections laws and regulations; and
12.3.6 the rights of the data subjects as stipulated by applicable data protections laws and regulations.
12.4 Data Transfer: In relation to the performance of CARRIAGE of a SHIPMENT, CARRIER may use the services of subcontractors or AGENT. Personal data shall be transferred to such person solely for the performance of services in relation to the CARRIAGE of such SHIPMENT, in compliance with applicable law and in accordance with these TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
12.5 Data Use: The SHIPPER and the CONSIGNEE understand that the CARRIER or its AGENT may collect, use and share personal data in relation to a SHIPMENT for the purposes of performing its obligations and effecting CARRIAGE under the relevant AIR WAYBILL and these TERMS AND CONDITIONS, including but not limited to those relating to customs, sanctions, safety and security, or otherwise complying with applicable regulation. The CARRIER may also share data with affiliated companies within the Deutsche Post A.G. group of companies in relation to the performance of CARRIAGE and other services in connection with the SHIPMENT. In this respect, the "DPDHL Data Privacy Policy" constituting rules and guidelines that each Deutsche Post A.G. affiliate is required to adhere to, applies to the transfer of personal data from Deutsche Post A.G. affiliate companies established in the European Economic Area (EEA) to those affiliate companies outside the EEA.
12.6 Data Processing: Within their respective areas of responsibility, the CARRIER and the SHIPPER shall each ensure the security and confidentiality of personal data by implementing appropriate technological and organisational measures. The CARRIER shall process the personal data to the extent necessary in relation to the CARRIAGE and ancillary services pertaining to the SHIPMENT and for no other purpose, unless permitted or required by applicable law. The SHIPPER will indemnify the CARRIER against any losses, damages, claims and expenses suffered by the CARRIER in relation to the SHIPPERS' failure to comply with this Article 12.
13.ARTICLE 13 – GENERAL
13.1 Laws: To the extent that any provision contained in or referred to herein is contrary to APPLICABLE CONVENTION, or other applicable laws, government regulation, orders or requirements that cannot be waived by agreement of the parties, such provision shall not apply to the extent of such conflict. The invalidity of any provision shall not
affect the validity of any other provision contained herein. These TERMS AND CONDITIONS shall otherwise, unless required by applicable law, be subject to the laws of England and Wales and shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the Courts of London, England.
13.2 Successive Carriers: CARRIAGE to be performed under one contract of CARRIAGE by several successive CARRIERS is regarded as a single operation.
13.3 Modification: No agent, servant or representative of the CARRIER has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract of CARRIAGE or of these TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
13.4 Set-Off: The SHIPPER may not set-off any claims against the CARRIER unless the respective claim is uncontested, acknowledged or has become non-appealable.
13.5 Assignment: The SHIPPER or CONSIGNEE may assign any claims arising from contracts with the CARRIER only in relation to a party with rights or title to, or an interest in, the affected SHIPMENT with the prior written consent of the CARRIER, not to be unreasonably withheld, and on providing documentary evidence thereof to the CARRIER's reasonable satisfaction.
14.ARTICLE 14 – PARTIES
14.1 These TERMS AND CONDITIONS have been adopted by the following CARRIERS acting in their capacity as an airline:

My name is Barbara Dyskant, and I'm a leukemia mom. I live in rural Western New York State. I feel sickened by our "healthcare" system that is neither healthy nor caring. I urge everyone to support universal single-payer healthcare, to support the New York Health Act.
On May 26, 2009, my beautiful 17-year-old daughter Nadine was diagnosed with leukemia. 40,000 people in the U.S. die from lack of health insurance each year; she could have been number 40,001.
We came scarily close to not catching her leukemia on time to save her. She was pale and tired and I thought she was "just anemic." With our high deductible insurance we would have to pay for a blood test. After some thought, I got her the test anyway "just in case," picking up an iron supplement on the way to the lab. After the test we got a call: "Take her to the emergency room now." We drove to Strong Hospital in Rochester, where she was immediately whisked upstairs for transfusions, hospitalized for a month, and underwent more than two years of chemotherapy. The oncologist told us we'd caught the leukemia in time for her to have the best chance of survival; had we waited much longer it could have been too late.
Our small rural hospital did not have the facilities to treat her. I moved to Rochester, 110 miles from our home, to care for her. My husband, however, was unable to go with us because he couldn't leave his job without losing our medical insurance. Our family was broken for two years.
The fact that our fear of the cost of going to the doctor could have led to her death makes me wonder how many of those 40,000 needless deaths were because of people not having the tests they needed due to costs.
Thank goodness Nadine survived, and she is now 26. She has been in remission for over six years, her hair grew back long and full, and she lives a full, vibrant life. After treatment she was accepted at music conservatory and is now a promising young flutist and composer; an exciting career awaits her.
However, they call this remission, not cure; she is in lifelong danger. She needs lifelong, comprehensive monitoring to check for recurrence of cancer or a new disease due to the scarily dangerous chemo that saved her life. Some of these "late effects" can take over 20 years appear, and without prompt treatment she could die.
We expect the best, but Nadine and I aren't stupid. We know her health could fail suddenly. This is a lifelong burden and it is huge!
My husband is 70 years old, and he put off retirement until Nadine is 26, to keep her on his medical insurance. Once she's off his insurance, she's in a black hole. I worry desperately about what health options she'll have, whether she'll be free to pursue her dreams despite insurance concerns, what will happen when we can no longer help, and whether she'll end up sick and poor and unable to get lifesaving care if she needs it.
It is terrifying that our insurance laws and regulations fluctuate with the political climate. Insurance companies have bottomless stores of our money, and they use OUR money to lobby for the ability to deny US care. Lack of insurance could be a death sentence for my daughter and many others.
I fear for all young people, for all people facing health risks. They are being robbed of the freedom to pursue life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, shackled to a medical system that bleeds us of wealth and health.
Every other "civilized" country, and many less developed countries, have universal healthcare. Among the most developed nations, our life expectancy and quality of care is the worst, despite our healthcare spending being the highest in the world.
Only universal healthcare, like the New York Health Act. will give Nadine and those like her their best chance of living life free from the danger of illness, poverty, and death due to lack of healthcare.

What will my child get from the Legends Academy that he won't get with another program?
Positive Mental Attitude – A huge part of the program success has been gained by conditioning the players to see the upside of circumstances and make the next thing in the game of life a positive and productive event. Regular motivational e-mails and motivational coaching emphasis are an integral part of the curriculum.
One month at a time. The Academy program is totally flexible. You can come and go on a month by month basis as you please.
What percentage of graduating Legends players get to play in College?
Over 85% of players from the first 7 teams to graduate from the founder, KC Legends Club went on to play in College.
Why do the Legends players get such success with College Scholarships?
Showcasing for College is where the tremendous individual skills our players have previously developed really become essential because extremely difficult combination skills can only be performed by players with great dribbling skills and ball striking ability. Thus the absolutely fantastic quick release skill and dribbling ability we develop in our players allows us to develop an incredible team player who is very attractive to the college coach. Other programs that didn't first spend the necessary time on developing a fantastic individual player cannot hope to compete for college scholarships in the way that our players can. At age 17 our players play faster, have greater confidence, look better on the ball, can score goals, beat players, defend well in 1 v 1 match ups and combine in and around the opponent's penalty area to create goal scoring opportunities. When a player can do all this everything else is easy.
Through the years we first work the more complex individual skills. Then we work the more complex individual tactical equations involved in the 1 v 1 situation and eventually the more complex tactical situations involved in the 2 v 2. Throughout the whole process we gradually operant condition the appropriate game responses by mandating certain responses i.e. early shot, pass or fake. We will never work with a ball ratio of greater than 2 v 2 because we are able to create a more complex tactical challenge than any ever encountered in the 11 v 11 game by practicing two teams together and forcing the players to utilize maximum cognition, perception, assimilation and task selection abilities under pressure at every practice. The practice expectations we have of our players exceed anything they will face in the game situation by a country mile. Therefore, after doing this for a few years the "real game" is a technical, tactical, physiological and psychological breeze.
Furthermore the players love it. They spend their time playing an exciting version of the game in a crowd where theirs and their opponent's goals are only twenty yards apart. Every second they are optimally challenged to the maximum of their ability. The end result is a player who loves the game, has great individual and team abilities in the clutch defensively and offensively and, therefore, the ability to lead the team to victory.
College coaches love this type of player because they make the plays that win games.
How do you divide up playing time?
How do you train positional play?
We train utility players who are able to play numerous positions because their ability with the ball and situational versatility gives them a breadth and depth of talents and skills applicable to a wide variety of situations. We position players much later than other youth clubs because our focus is on maximizing the abilities of each individual not winning games.
Why do you win so many games if your focus isn't on winning?
The reason we win so many games when the teams mature is because we never focused on the wins and losses as the players were developing. Children can only develop incredibly creative skills and a risk taking mentality when they are given complete encouragement and support to take the risk in all situations where there is a much easier and often fear based option. We focus on the development of the brilliant individual player and leave the integration of the team until its logical place i.e. after the individual brilliance is set in stone. It is almost impossible to beat a team of brilliant individuals who have learned when and where to use their teammates effectively. That's why Brazil have won so many World Cups.

Location Matters: Reign of the Orlando Superchildren, Part 3 of 4
Posted By James Greene Jr. on Fri, May 16, 2014 at 2:31 PM
Lonely Bizarro (Barry Meyers) weeps in the shadow of the SunTrust Center.
Location Matters is a series that reflects upon pieces of Orlando immortalized in popular film. Today, the third installment of a sub-series devoted to the 1980s Superboy program that was produced in our fair metropolis (view part one here and part two here).
Superboy's producers Alex and Ilya Salkind weren't tied to much canon regarding the nascent Kryptonian they licensed for their syndicated television series. The character didn't appear in any of the Superman movies between 1978 and 1987 and had actually been stamped out of the comics in 1986, a victim of DC's Man of Steel reboot that also erased Supergirl and Krypto the Super Dog. Thus, TV's Superboy was free to venture into whatever weird, uncharted territory his writers could dream up. Putting Clark Kent in the balmy recesses of Florida was strange enough for fans used to seeing the guy inhabit one of three places (bustling urban landscape, Kansas cornfield, outer space), but the oddness cranked up even higher in Superboy's third season. Suddenly Kal-El became an intern for the Men in Black.
Yes, when Superboy returned for round three in October 1990, viewers learned that Clark had accepted an internship with the Capitol City Bureau Office For Extra-Normal Matters. UFOs, Bigfoots, Skunk Apes - Superboy is now in the thick of the very x-files Mulder and Scully would deadpan their way through to national acclaim a few years later. No one in Capitol City's FBI is as steely as their FOX counterparts, though. In fact, Clark's boss is pretty testy, stressed out and overbearing, almost like ... he's running a newspaper. The office interior certainly smacks of art deco, as if The Daily Planet existed there during Roosevelt's heyday. And for a government building, there doesn't seem to be much security. Lana Lang breezes right in with her bad self for the other internship position the show has decided she must have. Letterman faced more opposition when he tried to deliver that fruit basket to GE.
A sweeping shot of downtown Orlando at daybreak kicks off season three's first episode, but before you can say Church Street Station a radio announcer makes clear the skyline belongs to Capitol City. This actually doesn't violate anything from previous seasons since Superboy never makes anything clear about Shusterville's borders. It's entirely possible the downtown locations we've already seen were always meant to be a part of this new fictional burg (though oddly it is later revealed that Orlando exists in this small screen universe and it's a "long way" from both Shusterville and Cap City).
Coincidentally, a month later The Simpsons introduced their own Capitol City in the now classic "Dancin' Homer" episode of that show's second season. Tony Bennett lends his soothing vocals to "Dancin' Homer," welcoming the Simpsons to their new home in a neighboring municipality with a funny song and a friendly word. Meanwhile, Superboy's Capitol City is populated by none other than Gregg Allman, who as a seedy carny sniffs about one of his victims to Superboy, "She was askin' fo' it, and lemme tell ya somethin' else ... she was lovin' it!"
Despite the fact this Bureau For Extra-Normal Matters angle ostensibly affords Superboy the opportunity to confront the Loch Ness Monster or figure out Roswell, a lot of the time he's still tussling with petty nobodies (most of whom, granted, are imbued with "mystical powers") and his old nemesis Lex Luthor. That's fine, though, because season three is where Superboy finds secure footing in its overall production. The growing pains are over; smarter writing, tighter editing and more stylized cinematography add up to a program that's both more self-assured and endlessly fun. Even when Super clone Bizarro is terrorizing the city because he's desperate to be in love and Luthor somehow twists this into creating an army of exploding pigeons it's hard to turn away, because they've finally figured out the formula to sell it.
Also, even with an extra 30 minutes an episode, it doesn't seem like the heroes of The X-Files ever really got to the bottom of the big mysteries they tackled. That show ran for nine seasons and threw out two movies and the ultimate fate of Mulder's sister is still ill-defined at best. All we know for sure is that the rapper Xzibit is in the second X-Files movie, but the first one is where a bee sting forces Mulder and Scully to get it on.
Lana (Stacy Haiduk) and Clark (Gerard Christopher): the less new adventures of Superguy.
If there's any aspect worth kvetching about in Superboy season three, maybe it's our hero's hair. It appears Gerard Christopher struggled with Florida humidity (or he just didn't want to get a trim) because from time to time those Kryptonian follicles are seriously unkempt. Of course, a big part of the Superman mythos is that Earth scissors can't cut his hair, he has to use special space scissors or his heat vision or both and it's just a big hassle, so maybe he just lets it grow out occasionally. While we're on the subject, Stacy Haiduk went with the Caroline in the City 'do for season three. It's cute but also tends to scream "HEY REMEMBER THE FUCKING NINETIES?" at the top of its spunky lungs.
Superboy was still filming at Universal Studios Florida in 1990-91, both on sound stages and around the newly opened theme park. In more than one episode characters are seen traipsing around the latter's tiny crevice of street blocks made up to look like early 20th Century Manhattan. One outing even works Universal Studios into the plot; in "Werewolf," Clark's boss rewards him for improved job performance with two passes to the park so he can "ride the movies." Our boy takes in Earthquake! The Ride and some fries at Mel's Drive-In before his alluring date turns into the titular monster for a showdown that pays homage/shamelessly copies the end of American Werewolf in London (a proud Universal property). The only thing missing is a cameo from Jenny Agutter or Rik Mayall or David Naughton or Griffin Dunne.
Truth be told, this season might be the record holder for nuttiest guest stars. In addition to the aforementioned Gregg Allman, we're also treated to Wayne Brady (in his first screen credit) as a member of a cult of levitating fire-starters ("Sons of Icarus"); wrestler Larry "Lex Luger" Pfohl, who plays an evil blonde version of Superboy who terrorizes Clark in his dreams ("Mindscape"); celebrity biographer Wendy Leigh as Sally Jesse Raphael parody Judy James Donatello ("The Bride of Bizarro"); and Edgar Allen Poe IV, the alleged great-great-great-grand-nephew of the original E.A. Poe, as a derelict ("Roads Not Taken"). This is actually not Poe's first appearance on Superboy, nor will it be his last - he pops up as a minor character in season one ("Mutant") and materializes again in season four as Lex Luthor's father ("Know Thine Enemy"). For reasons only he understands, Ed is credited as Poe III during season three but Poe IV everywhere else.
Oh, did I mention Juice Newton? She shows up as well during Superboy's take on Jekyll and Hyde ("Jackson and Hyde").
1990 was a time of renaissance for comic book heroes. The prior year's long-awaited Batman film touched that off; suddenly anyone born from ink (the Flash, Captain America, Dick Tracy) was getting their own live action property. Superboy had been ahead of the game and was able to work out its kinks before this new superhero heat descended. As ratings and critical praise piled up, the Salkinds began seriously considering using their TV property as a possible platform to relaunch Superman on the big screen. Following the disaster of 1987's Superman IV: The Quest for Peace it seemed unlikely Christopher Reeve would sign on for Superman V. Gerard Christopher could step in, the producers reasoned, and the sequel concept slowly morphed into Superman: The New Movie. Kal-El might be reborn of a new canon, soaring above his crummier mid-'80s installments to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Keaton's Batman.
Warner Bros., who owned the character of Superman outright, weren't so optimistic. They didn't see the Salkinds as successful television producers; rather, they saw them as the guys who drove the Superman film franchise into the ground, the stubborn pair whose warring with original talents Richard Donner, Gene Hackman, and Margot Kidder hampered the second and third Super screen installments and forced the sale of Superman IV to notorious cheapskates Cannon Films (who gave us a Man of Steel barely fit for a boat show). The Salkinds' Supergirl fared no better, bellyflopping upon its 1984 release. Warner had allowed the Salkinds to play with their Supers for over a decade. Now it was time to hand things over to new blood.
Superboy was about to enter the Phantom Zone, both figuratively and literally, where he would languish for over a decade as if he never existed at all.
Next week: the thrilling conclusion of REIGN OF THE ORLANDO SUPERCHILDREN! Watch in horror as the corporate masters debilitate our hero with legal red tape! Gasp loudly as a safety from the Buffalo Bills steps into the tights for a network retread! Feel some kind of way when Gerard Christopher starts selling bootleg Superboy DVDs from his website! The incidents! The places! My friends, we cannot keep this a secret any longer. Can your heart stand the shocking facts of Superboy robbers from inner Hollywood?
