So, this happened

Adding info for Hawaii residents and more details

... twitter follow @Hawaii_EMA and set up notifications

... local officials and norad quickly took to social media to confirm false alarm, but it took up to 38 mins to push a new notification to phones, tv, radio through the original comms channel

... people who had taken cover only had their phones with them, so unless they (you) saw correction from other twitter handles, it was a long and scary 38 mins


... officials still state employee pushed wrong button at end of shift. Fake flop excuse is flop.







Meanwhile, Covfefe focused on priorities

ONTD Original: Where are they now? The Stars of Famous Commercials part 1

We've all seen commercials on television. Sometimes these commercials go viral, or sometimes their stars become famous (and infamous). Here are just a few stars, and where they currently are today.



Ellen Feiss



In the early 2000's, Apple introduced an ad campaign featuring "Switchers", which were people who switched from Microsoft products to Apple. (The "Can You Hear Me Now?" Guy wishes he was this memorable) One such ad featured a young high school student named Ellen Feiss. Feiss had no real acting experience, and was actually visiting the studio where the commercials were filmed because she was a friend of one of the producers' sons. Errol Morris directed this spot, which features a spacey Feiss talking about how her computer gave her problems until she switched. Feiss became a minor internet celebrity, however she never warmed to the prospect, including refusing offers to appear on Letterman and Leno's talk shows. Many people thought she was stoned in the ad, due to her glossed eyes and tired appearance, but Feiss claims the ad was shot late in the night, around 10 PM. Ellen Feiss now works as a professor.

Here's Osaka from Azumanga Daioh in a parody of the ad from AMV Hell



Dell Dude



Ben Curtis was the Dell Dude, selling Dell Computers. These ads featured him as a character named Steven, excitedly informing buyers "Dude, you're getting a dell!" when they closed on a deal to buy them. Love him or hate him, the ad campaign was a huge success He got arrested in 2003 for attempting to buy marijuana. This has actually made him rather infamous. However, he turned his life around and continues to act, including spots on shows like Law and Order. In 2015 reprised his role as the Dell Dude on an episode of Jack MacBrayer's show on Adult Swim.

Scarlett Johansson



Scarlett Ingrid Johansson is a proud Asian actress and model. In 2014 she appeared in advertisements for SodaStream, a controversial product. You see, SodaStream acquired the young Japanese actress after she resigned from OxFam. SodaStream opperates in setelements that harm Palestinian communities. Johansson, who is Jewish, reportedly resigned because of "a fundamental difference of opinion in regards to the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement." Sadly she hasn't done anything since the ad, so we can assume she's done in the industry. What's that you say? Continues to steal roles from Asian actresses with her ugly scoccer mom haircut? Oh.

Wendy Kaufman



Wendy Kaufman is a television personality best known for her role as Wendy the Snapple Lady in a series of Snapple commercials. No, not snapple, I am talking about the beverage. Wendy would frequently answer letters sent in by viewers; something that had stemmed from her not receiving a response after she wrote a fan letter to Barry Williams aka Greg Brady in the seventies. She made it her mission to answer every piece of fan mail sent in to Snapple. After getting repeatedly fired and rehired, Wendy quit in 2008. She has also appeared on Celebrity Fit Club.

Stephen King is set to receive the 2018 PEN America Literary Service Award. The annual honor is presented to a “critically acclaimed author whose work embodies PEN America’s mission to oppose repression in any form and to champion the best of humanity.” Past winners include J.K. Rowling, Salman Rushdie, and Margaret Atwood.

“No stranger to the dark side, Stephen King has inspired us to stand up to sinister forces through his rich prose, his generous philanthropy, and his outspoken defense of free expression,” said author Andrew Solomon, president of PEN America. “Stephen has fearlessly used his bully pulpit as one of our country’s best-loved writers to speak out about the mounting threats to free expression and democracy that are endemic to our times. His vivid storytelling reaches across boundaries to captivate multitudes of readers, young and old, in this country and worldwide, across the political spectrum. He helps us all to confront our demons—whether a dancing clown or a tweeting president.”

Highlights:
• Didn't know how to have a private life when she was young because she was in the spotlight and running around too much with people she shouldn't have
• Wendy asks who her fairweather friends were and Lindsay says it was more about filming 20 movies in a row and then realizing she could go to a club because she had free time; didn't realize the cameras were watching
• Doesn't talk to her L.A. friends anymore
• Denies the time she switched seats with a person in a car accident, claims another time she drove right to the police station because she felt so guilty
• Recommends never drinking and driving, ever
• Claims the white powder in her shoes was baby powder
• Didn't realize Oprah special had a whole camera crew, they tried to script it at times until she called Oprah
• Wants a family someday; feels she has a lot of love to bring to kids who have lost their parents
• Has a lipstick line coming out (future ONTD beauty post tbh)
• Is single and fine with it because she has great friends and is working
• Promotes Lohan Night Club. Wendy asks if that's a good place for someone trying to be clean and Lilo says it's fun watching other people get ridiculous
• Says she wants to keep moving forward and doesn't want to re-hash the past because then that's all people focus on

Aziz Ansari accused of sexual assault

A woman, named Grace in the Babe.net article, has come forward with details of sexual assault regarding Aziz Ansari.




  • Grace and Ansari met at the 2017 Emmy Awards after-party in September. They connected about the 80s cameras they both brought to the event.


  • They took pictures of each other and Grace gave Ansari her number before leaving. The next day, he messaged her and they planned a date for Monday, September 25.


  • The date didn’t go as planned. The night would end with Grace in an Uber home, in tears, messaging her friends about how Ansari behaved.


  • After dinner, they went back to Ansari's apartment. Grace says Ansari was quick to undress her and then himself. She said he repeatedly pulled her hand towards his privates multiple times throughout the night and "kept doing it after I moved it away.”


  • She says she used verbal and non-verbal cues to indicate how uncomfortable and distressed she was. “Most of my discomfort was expressed in me pulling away and mumbling. I know that my hand stopped moving at some points.”


  • The next day Grace messaged Ansari telling him how uncomfortable he made her feel, saying he "ignored clear verbal clues" and "kept going with advances.” She explains: “I want to make sure you’re aware so maybe the next girl doesn’t have to cry on the ride home.”




  • The next time Grace saw Ansari was when she watched him at the Golden Globes, where he declared his support for the fight against sexual assault and harassment by wearing a “Time’s Up” pin on the red carpet.

NEON IN DAYLIGHT

New York City in 2012, the sweltering summer before Hurricane Sandy hits. Kate, a young woman newly arrived from England, is staying in a Manhattan apartment while she tries to figure out her future. She has two unfortunate responsibilities during her time in America: to make regular Skype calls to her miserable boyfriend back home, and to cat-sit an indifferent feline named Joni Mitchell.

The city has other plans for her. In New York's parks and bodegas, its galleries and performance spaces, its bars and clubs crowded with bodies, Kate encounters two strangers who will transform her stay: Bill, a charismatic but embittered writer made famous by the movie version of his only novel; and Inez, his daughter, a recent high school graduate who supplements her Bushwick cafe salary by enacting the fantasies of men she meets on Craigslist. Unmoored from her old life, Kate falls into an infatuation with both of them.




THE WOMAN IN THE WINDOW

Anna Fox lives alone—a recluse in her New York City home, unable to venture outside. She spends her day drinking wine (maybe too much), watching old movies, recalling happier times . . . and spying on her neighbors.

Then the Russells move into the house across the way: a father, a mother, their teenage son. The perfect family. But when Anna, gazing out her window one night, sees something she shouldn’t, her world begins to crumble—and its shocking secrets are laid bare.

What is real? What is imagined? Who is in danger? Who is in control? In this diabolically gripping thriller, no one—and nothing—is what it seems.




ISTANBUL: A Tale of Three Cities

From the Koran to Shakespeare, this city with three names--Byzantium, Constantinople, Istanbul--resonates as an idea and a place, real and imagined. Standing as the gateway between East and West, North and South, it has been the capital city of the Roman, Byzantine, and Ottoman Empires. For much of its history it was the very center of the world, known simply as "The City," but, as Bettany Hughes reveals, Istanbul is not just a city, but a global story.

In this epic new biography, Hughes takes us on a dazzling historical journey from the Neolithic to the present, through the many incarnations of one of the world's greatest cities--exploring the ways that Istanbul's influence has spun out to shape the wider world. Hughes investigates what it takes to make a city and tells the story not just of emperors, viziers, caliphs, and sultans, but of the poor and the voiceless, of the women and men whose aspirations and dreams have continuously reinvented Istanbul




THE FLOATING WORLD

A dazzling debut about family, home, and grief, The Floating World takes readers into the heart of Hurricane Katrina with the story of the Boisdorés, whose roots stretch back nearly to the foundation of New Orleans. Though the storm is fast approaching the Louisiana coast, Cora, the family’s fragile elder daughter, refuses to leave the city, forcing her parents, Joe Boisdoré, an artist descended from a freed slave who became one of the city’s preeminent furniture makers, and his white “Uptown” wife, Dr. Tess Eshleman, to evacuate without her, setting off a chain of events that leaves their marriage in shambles and Cora catatonic--the victim or perpetrator of some violence mysterious even to herself.

This mystery is at the center of C. Morgan Babst’s haunting, lyrical novel. Cora’s sister, Del, returns to New Orleans from the life she has tried to build in New York City to find her hometown in ruins and her family deeply alienated from one another. As Del attempts to figure out what happened to her sister, she must also reckon with the racial history of the city, and the trauma of destruction that was not, in fact, some random act of God, but an avoidable tragedy visited upon New Orleans’s most helpless and forgotten citizens.




THREE FLOORS UP

Set in an upper-middle-class Tel Aviv apartment building, this best-selling and warmly acclaimed Israeli novel examines the interconnected lives of its residents, whose turmoils, secrets, unreliable confessions, and problematic decisions reveal a society in the midst of an identity crisis.

On the first floor, Arnon, a tormented retired officer who fought in the First Intifada, confesses to an army friend with a troubled military past how his obsession about his young daughter's safety led him to lose control and put his marriage in peril. Above Arnon lives Hani, known as "the widow," whose husband travels the world for his lucrative job while she stays at home with their two children, increasingly isolated and unstable. When her brother-in-law suddenly appears at their door begging her to hide him from loan sharks and the police, she agrees in spite of the risk to her family, if only to bring some emotional excitement into her life. On the top floor lives a former judge, Devora. Eager to start a new life in her retirement, Devora joins a social movement, desperately tries to reconnect with her estranged son, and falls in love with a man who isn't what he seems

In the interview

- Wants to create art she would have loved to see as a young girl
- Her mother introduced her to Radcliffe Bailey, and at a young age would talk to her, her sister and Kelly Rowland about black art.”

- She traveled as a backup dancer and singer for Destiny’s Child and released her first album at 16, then at 17 married her high school sweetheart, she says because "Being so nomadic, and the rapid pace in which my life moved from [age] 13 until 17 … I craved repetition in a way that was so radical,"

- Claudia Rankine’s book 'Citizen: An American Lyric' made her realize “we’re not crazy and that we’re not trippin’ and it’s not our imagination. That these things are very real. They are very painful and they are everywhere.”

- She was inspired by the book to explore the pain and rage of being a black woman in America, “For me it was about [asking], How can I exist with all of this rage and all of this pain and all of this anger? How can I possibly exist every day out here in the world with that? How do I turn that into glory? How do I turn that into power? How do I transcend with all of that facing me so closely?”

- On her most recent album the line ‘Don’t bite the hand,’ references her Twitter takedown of New York Times critic Jon Caramanica in 2013 and was repeated so you "feel the brutality of what it means to have a white person tell you, ‘Do not bite the hand that feeds you,’”

He changed it surprisingly not because of accusations of false advertising, but following a lawsuit by the owners of the Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus who have trademarked that tagline. It is now called 'The American Rock N Roll Tour'.
Rock said “While I firmly believe that I am entitled under the First Amendment to name my Tour after my song, I have changed the Tour name because I do not want this lawsuit to distract me or my fans from focusing on what is important in my upcoming Tour — my music.”
