As a nine-year-old student, I would often go out and play with my friends and classmates. We enjoyed our childhood by exploring the world outside together with friends and family. But for 9-year-old William Maillis, planning for his bright future ahead is what matters most.

At only 6 months old, William was already able to identify words and numbers—and by 7 months old, he was able to speak complete sentences. He was two when he was able to read, write and use multiplication, he could read Greek aged four and geometry at five. Today, at nine years old, William is already a student at the Community College of Allegheny County.

William, from Penn Township, Pennsylvania, says he wants to be an Astrophysicist to prove God’s existence: ‘I want to prove to everybody that God does exist.’
He will do this by showing that only an outside force could be capable of creating the universe.
According to Peter’s history professor Aaron Hoffman, William is the only pupil who doesn’t take notes – instead, he listens, reads and absorbs the material.
When asked what his goal in life is, he says: ‘I want to prove to everybody that God does exist.’
Things like eating, drinking and breathing come naturally to us. We
repeat these actions so often that we do them without even thinking.
So it’s hard to imagine that we’re not doing these things like we
should. We happen to get used to it in our everyday life. Some examples
are sleeping, sitting and even breathing.
Think of these as life-hacks that will improve not just your physical body but also your overall wellness.
Now here are some tips that can help you in the future! Watch this video:
Anna Ballesteros, 18, was struck by lightning as she walked to college
recently. She survived the lighting bolt but was left with an
unimaginable pain that lead her family to resort to this mind-boggling
home treatment.
three days a week, Ana was being buried alive in her garden.
She was placed in a huge pit which was filled with soil up to her neck.
Through this method, Ana’s relatives believed that it would “take the energy” of the lightning left in her.
Despite the medical treatment in the hospital, Ana is suffering from back pain which prevented her from walking properly.
The new death toll was given by Haitian government officials. On Thursday, a toll of just over 100 was being given.
Hurricane Matthew - the most powerful Caribbean storm in nearly a decade - has pounded the Bahamas after slicing through Haiti and Cuba.
Trees and power lines were reportedly down in the Bahamas but no fatalities were reported.
Most of the fatalities in Haiti were in towns and fishing villages around the southern coast, with many killed by falling trees, flying debris and swollen rivers.
The storm passed directly through the Tiburon peninsula, driving the sea inland and flattening homes with winds of up to 230km/h (145mph) and torrential rain on Monday and Tuesday.
The collapse of an important bridge on Tuesday had left the south-west largely cut off.
Non-governmental organisations said phone coverage and electricity were down and people were running out of food and water.
The BBC's Tony Brown in south-western Haiti said he had seen people trying to cope with the mass destruction on their own, trying to rebuild from the rubble but without the help of the army or police.

You’ve got a huge amount of work to do, and you’re arguing all the time with those close to you. All of this might seem manageable, but when problems pile up they can suck the life out of you. If you’ve done what needs to be done, find somewhere to lie down and take a rest. Take a deep breath over the course of five seconds, hold it, and breathe out for eight. Do it again. Lie like this for about ten minutes, focusing on your breathing and not on the thoughts that come into your head.
We all know that Latest Mobile Phones are very popular nowadays, be it the Samsung Galaxy 7s or the iPhone 6/7s. They keep enhancing and upgrading not just the software but also the hardware. But one concern is the battery life, most of the tech-savvy persons would opt to have a phone that has a larger battery capacity.
Who would’ve thought that our iPhone could be a threat to our life!
Just last month, Samsung Galaxy 7s were recalled from the market after incidents of randomly blowing up. Reason? The phone’s battery has a defect. But that issue has faded now, the one that we’re talking about here is an iPhone 6 Plus that exploded in the pocket of this student from Philadelphia.
Darin Hlavaty, the victim, got caught on fire while inside the class after his phone exploded in his back. Yes, he got caught on fire!
He was reaching for his pocket to get a pen, but he noticed that his phone started smoking until a fire was lit. He started feeling this hot burning sensation in his leg.
Because of the pain, he panicked and threw the device across the room.
“It was super hot so I flinched, grabbed it, and threw it on the ground”, “I had to kick it because it was on fire.” He said.
You can see from the picture below that the device was burnt to crisp. Imagine if he hadn’t removed it from his pocket.
A fellow student said that he heard an odd “fizzing and popping sound” before his pocket started smoking. No other student was hurt in the incident and campus public safety arrived at the scene. Their class were moved to another room because their previous room was reeking of smoky-smell.
Though everyone knows that this is not an isolated case,
Here’s a similar incident where a a man’s leg was burned because of an iPhone exploding.
The giant snake weighing 63 stone was discovered while the workers were carrying out a controlled explosion in the Cave of Altamira in the northern state of Para.
Frightened, they chained the reptile to a crane and hoisted it up.
As seen on the video, the anaconda is undoubtedly massive. Its body could have measure one meter in diameter.
Is this the largest snake on earth caught on cam?
However after the video was uploaded on YouTube, animal lovers criticized the workers for chaining the creature. It’s claimed that the workers killed the giant snake rather than leave it in its natural habitat but this has not been confirmed.
Somehow, others believed that the anaconda may have died during the explosion possibly due to falling debris, considering the snake’s head is rather flat in the video.
Meanwhile, The Guinness World Record for the longest snake in captivity is currently held by Medusa, a snake in Kansas City, US, which measures 25 feet and 2 inches long.
