    Ironically, the post RIGHT above yours has(d?) this in it.

      go to http://www.apple.com/uk/legal/statutory-warranty/ which actually explains your rights rather well, and provides links to government websites.

    So, no.

    The guy who said "Give me liberty, or give me death" was a rich white guy.

    He didn't need to work.

    He also was a landowner and slave owner. Therefore, a hypocrite.

    It doesn't need to 'clarify' it, because it's intrinsically FOR the government alone. That was the whole fucking purpose of the Constitution & it's articles.

    Which, in part, led to the massive arms race and excessive military spending and huge debt we have today.

    Maybe they should have created the Dept of Education a few years earlier...

    My kid is on a hockey team.
    All the parents and coaches have the contact info of all the parents, AND all the kids who have phones.
    Because sometimes other parents take kids to games/practices.
    This is on an 11/12 yr old team.
    This is normal.

    As for your point why those two? Probably because all the others on the team were 16. These two kids were 'swimming up' ie the best at their age, so they compete against the older kids. Same on my kid's hockey team. There's one 10 yr old. We have his phone number too.

    Interesting question.

    My guess would be that those to were 'swimming up' ie they were the best in their age group and so were competing against older kids whom he was coaching.

    Another issue is that the US gov't spends more on debt interest than on education. http://www.usfederalbudget.us/defense_budget_2012_3.html There's a math joke in there somewhere.

    Until we stop spending trillions on military, our money problems won't stop. It's our single biggest cost, because for some reason we seem to need to be the world's police.
