  • Starz' 'American Gods' Descends for Season 3
    Starz' 'American Gods' Descends for Season 3 12.03.2020 Starz' American Gods, based on the best-selling novel by Neil Gaiman, prepare for their season-three return in the above trailer. Ahead of the trailer's debut, the American Gods' social channels hosted an event in which, much like when Game of Thrones' fans watched a block of ice melt, fans guessed when the car from the novel's Lakeside Clunker Raffle would fall through the ice. Once it did, the official season-three trailer was revealed. Starz will air a marathon of seasons one and two over the weekend of January 9 and 10, leading up to the premiere at 8 p.m. ET/PT that evening. The show will premiere internationally on Amazon Prime Video on Monday, Jan. 11. American Gods is the story of the war that is building between mythology's Old Gods, brought to America by immigration, and technology's New Gods. The story is told through the perspective of ex-con Shadow Moon (Ricky Whittle), who is recruited by the mysterious Mr. Wednesday (Ian McShane) to serve as a sort of body man. Shadow Moon soon learns that Mr. Wednesday has a lot of secrets, the biggest of which is that he is actually the Norse All-Father God Odin. Character poster of Shadow Moon for Starz' 'American Gods' season 3 The series also stars Emily Browning as Laura Moon, Yetide Badaki as Bilquis, Bruce Langley as Technical Boy, Omid Abtahi as Salim, Ashley Reys as Cordelia, Crispin Glover and Mr. World, Demore Barnes as Mr.

  • American Gods, Myths, and Roadside Attractions
    EN 3553.01 Major Authors Spring 2018 MWF 10:00-10:50 Mr. Price American Gods and American Roadside Attractions In the popular novel American Gods, Neil Gaiman offers the premise that we “create the gods.” He takes the notion from psychologist Carl Gustav Jung that by imagining gods, by bringing them into our culture, we fully create them. They take on an existence beyond that of our imagination. They become real. As a writer of fantasy, Gaiman can make that “becoming real” quite literal, as in the novel his gods wander through the American landscape. For us – and therefore as a literary metaphor – they become “real” in another sense. There are the gods we worship, such as the Odin brought to American shores by Leif Erickson and his contemporaries. There are things we worship, such as the television set that has been the altar and shrine of American households. There is the automobile and the highway. For this class I want to begin with Gaiman’s depiction of “the gods,” looking a bit at the novel’s central plot, but particularly at his incorporation of “forgotten gods,” figures of folklore, and such elements as flavor American culture. I plan to also look at a couple example American myths, big ones. I am including a couple pieces on the “frontier” and “melting pot” myths: Willa Cather’s My Antonia and a John Ford film, “The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.” For America’s favorite twentieth century myth, “the business of America is business” (quote attributed to Calvin Coolidge), we will look at Sinclair Lewis’s Babbitt.

  • CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE
    CAST BIOGRAPHIES Season 2 RICKY WHITTLE (SHADOW MOON) Ricky Whittle was born in Oldham, near Manchester in the north of England. Growing up, Whittle excelled in various sports representing his country at youth level in football, rugby, American football and athletics. After being scouted by both Arsenal and Celtic Football Clubs, injuries forced him to pursue a law degree at Southampton University. It was here he began modeling, becoming the face of a Reebok campaign in 2000. Whittle left university to pursue an acting career and soon joined several action-packed seasons as bad boy Ryan Naysmith in Sky One’s “Dream Team.” Following that, Whittle quickly joined the U.K.’s hugely popular long-running drama, “Hollyoaks,” in which he played rookie cop Calvin Valentine to acclaim across 400+ episodes. In 2010, Whittle made the decision to relocate to California and, within months of settling in, booked the role of Captain George East in the romantic-comedy feature Austenland for Sony Pictures, which was produced by Twilight creator Stephanie Meyer. Additionally, he was soon cast in a major recurring role in VH1’s popular series, “Single Ladies.” Another major recurring role followed on The CW’s popular post-apocalyptic sci-fi series “The 100.” Whittle’s character, Lincoln, immediately became a fan-favorite character, so he was upped to a series regular. Simultaneously, Whittle also had a recurring arc as Daniel Zamora in ABC’s “Mistresses.” In 2016, after a vigorous casting process, Whittle won the coveted role of Shadow Moon in Starz’s “American Gods.” In 2017, Whittle was seen opposite Sanaa Lathan in the Netflix feature film Nappily Ever After, which is based on the novel of the same name by Trisha R.

The second oldest--and most prestigious--awards in the field, they quickly were nicknamed the Hugos (officially since 1958), in honor of Hugo Gernsback (1884 -1967), founder of Amazing Stories, the first professional magazine devoted entirely to science fiction. No awards were given in 1954 at the World Science Fiction Con in San Francisco, but they were restored in 1955 at the Clevention (in Cleveland) and included six categories: novel, novelette, short story, magazine, artist, and fan magazine.

Rule XXIV clause 7, first adopted in 1909. Today, the Calendar Wednesday procedure is utilized infrequently due to its cumbersome operation and to the fact that nonprivileged bills may be con- sidered more effectively pursuant to other procedures, such as a special order from the Committee on Rules, suspension of the rules, or unanimous consent. Deschler Ch 21 § 4. Where the Rules Committee has declined to report a special order providing for the consideration of a bill, it may be taken up pursuant to the Calendar Wednesday rule.
