David Meade, the writer who claimed that the world will end on Sept. 23 attempted to clarify his statement.
“The world is not ending, but the world as we know it is ending,” he told The Washington Post. “A major part of the world will not be the same the beginning of October.”
Meade made the doomsday prediction in his book “Planet X — The 2017 Arrival.” Earlier, he claimed “Planet Nibiru,” or “Planet X,” will hit the Earth. In the book, he said that Saturday would mark the start of a series of catastrophic events. Namely, the prophecies in the Book of Revelation will begin on that day.
Meade said that he made the prediction based on verses and numerical codes in the book while claiming that recent disasters like Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Harvey are bad omens.

While we wait for Sept. 23, here are some noteworthy Doomsday predictions:

July 29, 2016 - The group End Times Prophecies once announced the world would end on July 29, 2016, because of something called a “polar flip.” It was predicted the stars would race across the sky and the atmosphere would be pulled along the ground. It turns out such a reversal is a common phenomenon occurring when iron shifts in the Earth’s core. This prediction turned out to be a bust, as did the group’s prognosis that former President Barack Obama would reveal himself to be the Antichrist.  
Oct. 7, 2015 - The eBible Fellowship, a Philadelphia-based Christian website run by Chris McCann, predicted the end of the world in correlation with the blood moon. (It also claimed the world would end on May 21, 2011.) "According to what the Bible is presenting it does appear that 7 October will be the day that God has spoken of: in which, the world will pass away," McCann told The Guardian. "It'll be gone forever. Annihilated."
Sept. 27, 2015 -  The blood moon-supermoon phenomena generated several end-of-the-world predictions related to four consecutive and complete lunar eclipses occurring at six-month intervals for about two years. Mormon author Julie Rowe's apocalyptic musings caused the Mormon Church to issue a statement distancing itself from her statements. Hold onto your predictions, though: the blood moon-supermoon will next appear in 2033.
April 15, 2014 - Some people thought it was the end; others just think it's the beginning of the end. The blood moon marked the beginning of a tetrad — four consecutive and complete lunar eclipses occurring at six-month intervals — which some see as a prophecy. Specifically, Texas televangelist John Hagee (author of Blood Moons: Something is About to Change) says the blood moons signify a "world-shaking event" that begins to fulfill End Times prophecy, aka the second coming of Christ.
Dec. 21, 2012 - Remember this hoopla? Basically, the ancient Mayans, who ruled through Mexico and Central America until around 900 A.D., used three calendars, one of which ended on Dec. 21, 2012. And such laid the groundwork for the Mayan calendar doomsday craze of 2012. People planned. People partied. It was debunked, over and over. Celebrities tweeted. The Mayans chuckled.
August/September 2011 - NASA's recap of the Comet Elenin fascination explains it all: "Elenin somehow quickly became something of a 'cause célèbre' for a few Internet bloggers, who proclaimed this minor comet could/would/should be responsible for causing any number of disasters to befall our planet. … NASA's response to such wild speculations was then, in turn, speculated to be an attempt to hide the truth."
May 21, 2011 - Harold Camping, a then-89-year-old televangelist and former president of the Family Radio Network, predicted the rapture world end the world with series of worldwide earthquakes hitting at 6 p.m. People believed him. Some quit their jobs and nervously huddled in their home awaiting their moment with God. The day of judgment didn't come. So, he pushed the date back to Oct. 21. Then, he stopped making predictions. Camping lived a long life and died at 92.
Jan. 1, 2000 - The computers can't handle an extra digit they said. So, the world braced for a computer database crash of catastrophic preparations. Rev. Jerry Falwell said Y2K would fulfill Christian prophecy. People who had never previously bought into end of the world theories were suddenly stockpiling canned goods in their basement. More than $100 billion was spent on Y2K fixes, the New York Times reported. When the clocked hit midnight, there were a few minor computer glitches but nothing major. Everyone survived.

The Difference between A-list, B-list, C-list and D-list Actors & Celebrities

“A-list”  actors are exceptionally successful, their notoriety extends beyond the silver screen, and their name guarantees a box office hit. Some “A-list” actors include: Will Smith, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and Johnny Depp. The “A-list” actors are usually made up of male actors as with more high earning positions. “B-list”  actors are usually television actors or less successful movie stars. Some “B-list” actors include: Nicholas Cage, Katherine Heigl, David Morse, Samantha Morton, and Pierce Brosnan. “B-list” actors usually never headline a film by themselves; this means the supporting actors are usually fairly notable too. “C-list”  actor is a character actor that’s known by face and not by name. They are usually still good actors, but they receive less notoriety than an A or B-list actor. “D-list”  actors are the lowest on the celebrity hierarchy; they appear on celebrity game shows and reality television....
