      Tesla passes Ford in market valuation pinning it at $49bn USD vs Ford's $46bn USD.

      http://www.bbc.com/news/business-39485200

      Market valuation is big, but Tesla is barely stable. Ford is much more stable in their $46bn.

      Not saying Ford is great or I am a fan of their stuff, just saying that market valuations are not much of a mark and highly unstable.

                  That 9 year old knew what was best, just stay quiet, things don't get worse when mom is shouting for you. . . .

                  Just stay quiet, it'll all blow over...

                            Does not mean she's leaving Florida, that depends on the terms of her bond.

                              @JaredBusch Understood. I could be wrong, but I'm assuming that they would let her return home with an expectation to return for a given court date.

                                So the older lady was there with kids from the high school she works at? Someone is getting expelled and it isnt the teen.

                                  The way I understood the article is that they were 2 separate parties who just happened to meet at Disney Land as total strangers.

                                        That's only so crazy, my mom found one in her apartment in Rochester, NY once.

                                          From the article :

                                          Snake wranglers have 60 days to catch the snakes. Participants are being paid minimum wage hourly rate, up to eight hours daily, with an additional $50 payment for pythons measuring up to four feet.

                                          Wranglers capturing a bigger snake will earn an extra $25 for each foot measured above four feet.

                                            That shows how common they've become. I went camping down there and found a few near my tent. They were all less than 2 feet, but you know the big ones are out there.
