https://i2.wp.com/listverse.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Banded-Water-Snake.jpg?resize=632%2C421
In 2013, 15-centimeter (6 in) snakes invaded Wagener-Salley High School in Wagener, South Carolina. Although Facebook rumors claimed the snakes were timber rattlers, they were, in fact, harmless juvenile banded water snakes. Assistant Principal James Arnold said that ten or so of the snakes were found in buildings and on the school grounds. He believed they were frightened from their hiding places when students returned to school after the summer break. Down the street from the school, another serpent, probably a black rat snake, caused panic at the Wagener Medical Center, and a grass snake was caught at nearby Aiken’s Silver Bluff High School.

7. Universities

Abuja University of Technology, Abaji, in the Banaskantha district of Gujarat, India, hadn’t even opened before snakes began to take over the campus, living in weeds growing in the area. As a result, the school had to postpone its planned September 2013 opening. Several stakeholders were concerned, given that a lot of money had been spent and 85 percent of the university’s facilities were in place, but no classes had been held.In a similar incident, snake invasions have occurred at the South China Normal University and other institutions of higher education in Guangzhou. Animal control workers caught 40 of the reptiles, but others were spied in the area, including 60 that were found dead, having been run over by vehicles. A student posted a message about her sighting of a 50-centimeter (20 in) green snake she saw on her way to the school’s library. It was sunning itself on the road, she noted on Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter. Zhang Liang of the South China Institute of Endangered Animals said the snakes are a nonvenomous species. He said bite marks on the snakes’ bodies suggest they were held in captivity before being deliberately released.

8. Senior's complex

In 2009, residents of a Manitoba housing complex for seniors, located in Inwood, about 75 kilometers (47 mi) from Winnipeg, began seeing snakes in hallways, on a kitchen counter, in bed, inside a baseboard heater, and on an external wall. One resident, Jim Monkman, said he was exiting his apartment when a snake fell on his shoulder. The snakes live several kilometers away in dens in Narcisse, tenant Ann O’Malley said, but they have entered the Inwood apartments through pipes, doorways, air conditioners, and a crawl space.Housing Minister Gord Mackintosh vowed to examine the situation immediately. Ralph Eichler, conservative member of the Legislative Assembly for Lakeside, said that Manitoba Housing has known about the problem for years but has taken no action. Meanwhile, tenants remain concerned about not only the snakes but also about diseases and the reptiles’ feces and stench.

Imagine encountering a snake at home, in your workplace, or another familiar environment that you’ve always regarded as safe. Just such a situation has occurred repeatedly. Recent snake invasions have alarmed citizens and officials alike, led to lawsuits, and prompted eradication efforts by officials. These ten bizarre snake invasions happened to others, but they could just as easily happen to you as well.

10. Dream house invasion

Jeff and Jody Brooks thought they’d found their dream house when they moved into their new residence in Annapolis, Maryland, in December 2015. Instead, they’d occupied a house of horrors. A dozen black rat snakes had invaded their domicile. A pest control company’s recommendation? “Burn the house down and let it sit for 15 years.”Months after the family moved into their new home, the couple’s four-year-old son encountered the first of the snakes. Since then, they have found many other snakes, nests, and snakeskins. The family deserted the house after they found the third reptile. The snakes range from 1.8 to 2.1 meters (6–7 ft) long.The couple ended up spending $60,000 on pest control. Finally, they sued the previous homeowner, Joan Broseker, and her agent and daughter, Barbara Van Horn, who sold them the house, asking for $2 million, which includes the $410,000 they paid for the house and $1 million in punitive damages. The family would like to start over in a house that’s not infested with snakes.
9. Apartment complex

Paul Roberston and his wife, Shawn Davis, sued the manager of Bradford Gwinnett, a Norcross, Georgia, apartment complex, where they and other residents live alongside venomous snakes. The manager, they said, has been negligent in controlling snakes that invaded the property sometime in 2013. They’ve encountered half a dozen of the reptiles, including a rat snake and a 1.8-meter-long (6 ft) copperhead. Robertson and Davis fear for the safety of their four-month-old granddaughter, who often stays with them. Another resident’s six-year-old son was bitten by one of the snakes. The couple protested the snake invasions by withholding their rent, an action which led to their eviction. Journalists’ attempts to contact the manager were unsuccessful.

Peter Thiel sitting between the President-elect and Apple CEO Tim Cook at Donald Trump's tech summit
Sillicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel appears to be very skeptical about Apple's future. The venture capitalist and Facebook board member, who is also known as the "Don of the PayPal Mafia", was subjected to an interesting Q&A session in "Confirm or Deny" – a popular segment of the New York Times.
When asked to confirm or deny whether the age of Apple is over, Thiel replied:
"Confirm. We know what a smartphone looks like and does. It's not the fault of Tim Cook, but it's not an area where there will be any more innovation".
Thiel's words suggest that Cupertino is over reliant on the iPhone, which is correct, given that over 60% of the company's revenue over the last two years came from different versions of its famous handset. His claim is also further supported by the fact that Apple's 2016 annual profits fell for the first time in 14 years as sales of the iPhone declined.

Despite this gloomy forecast, Tim Cook & Co. still have an enormous cash reserve, which undoubtedly will be put to good use. Apple is also planning to do something special with the 2017 iteration of its handset, as the company marks 10 years since Steve Jobse introduced the original iPhone. At least one version of the device is rumored to sport an edge-to-edge OLED display, an innovative wireless charging technology and a host of other interesting features.

Apple, however, wasn't the only corporation mentioned in Thiel's interview. Host Maureen Dowd also questioned the billionaire about Google and Facebook.

Thiel confirmed that Google was too dominant in the Obama administration, saying that "Google had more power under Obama than Exxon had under Bush 43".

The venture capitalist shared some interesting facts about Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, while also denying that Facebook is a media company (according to the company's official policy). When asked whether the media should trust Facebook, Thiel replied:
"Confirm. Although, trusting in what way? There are a comical number of misguided conspiracy theories about Facebook".

You guys should download Megabox and ADM apps. Use megabox to search for the movie, click on the movie, select the pixel of your choice (360, 480, 720, 1080), click on Custom. ADM will pop up, select it and rename the movie correctly, e.g. Moonlight.mp4 or Moonlight.mkv
