As host of Discovery Channel’s smash-hit series Expedition Unknown, Gates crisscrosses the globe to explore archaeological wonders and enduring legends. Gates will tell his tales on the AAA Travel Stage Sunday, Feb. 9, 2020 at noon. Following his appearance, EXPO guests will have the chance to ask Gates questions and meet him for autographs. In his latest season of Expedition Unknown, Gates braved sub-zero temperatures to snowmobile across Siberia investigating one of the coldest cases of the Cold War: the baffling deaths of nine hikers on Russia’s infamous “Dead Mountain.” Gates also explored the Holy Land as he descended into newly discovered caves and tunnels that could hold the next Dead Sea Scrolls. An avid adventurer, scuba diver and photographer, Gates has participated in sub-sea archaeological excavations in the Mediterranean, and his wanderlust has taken him to more than 100 countries -- from sweltering African deserts to the icy shores of Antarctica. In addition, he has scaled “the roof of Africa” on Mt. Kilimanjaro and climbed Aconcagua, the tallest mountain in the Americas. A mysterious “Yeti” footprint recovered by Gates in the Himalayas is now on display at the “Expedition Everest” attraction at Walt Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando, Fla.

  • The Role of Religion in American Jewish Satire

Dissertations - ALL. 322. https://surface.syr.edu/etd/322 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the SURFACE at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT Jewish humor is a well-known, if ill-defined genre. The prevalence and success of Jewish comedians has been a point of pride for American Jews throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. What I undertake in this dissertation is to isolate one particular form of humor—namely satire—and use it as a way to analyze the changing relationship of American Jews to traditional religious forms. I look at the trends over three generations, the third generation (who came of age in the 40s and 50s), the Baby Boom generation (who came of age in the 60s and 70s) and the contemporary generation (who came of age in the 80s and 90s). When the satire produced by each generation is analyzed with the depiction of Judaism and Jewish practices in mind a certain pattern emerges. By then reading that pattern through Bill Brown’s Thing Theory it becomes possible to talk about the motivations for and effects of the change over time in a new way.

  • Ancient Rome the Spread of Christianity
    Ancient Rome The Spread of Christianity ● The notes on Christianity mentioned that Jesus was crucified, but they don’t go into great detail as to why ○ While there was general religious tolerance in the Roman Empire, people were supposed to put the emperor and Roman gods above all else (remember that Rome was a polytheistic culture prior to adopting Christianity as their state-sponsored religion) ○ Romans were trying to avoid more Jewish revolts and viewed Jesus as a threat to their power (i.e. they didn’t want to get overthrown) ○ In Crash Course World History #11, John Green states that the Romans condemned Jesus to death, not the Jewish people ■ The simple answer to that is that both groups didn’t want Jesus around ■ In the New Testament of the Bible, the Roman Governor of Judea Pontius Pilate literally “washes his hands” of killing Jesus after his wife had a dream about Jesus and she begged for his life to be spared ■ In the same story, the Jewish people in the crowd chose to free a murder known as Barabbas instead of Jesus The Spread of Christianity ● Prior to his death, Jesus predicted that one of the twelve apostles was going betray him (Judas) ● Jesus was crucified on a hill called Golgotha in Jerusalem...if you remember completing a worksheet on the city of Jerusalem way back when, there was a location on the map called the Church of the Holy Sepulchre: the church was built on top of the hill that Jesus was crucified on ● Had we been in school, we were going to watch an Expedition Unknown Episode on finding the cross that Jesus was crucified on ○ Legend claims that Constantine sent his mother Helena to Jerusalem in AD 326 to find the cross ○ Helena found a cross on the hill of Golgotha & in order to prove it was indeed the cross that Jesus died on, she had a sick woman touch it.

  • The American Archivist Reviews Date Posted: December 20, 2018
    The American Archivist Reviews Date posted: December 20, 2018 http://reviews.americanarchivist.org They’re Digging in the Wrong Place: The Influence of Indiana Jones on the Archives Reviewed by Samantha Cross, CallisonRTKL, Inc. Tell me if this sounds familiar: you’re chatting with friends, family members, maybe complete strangers and the subject of professions pops up. They ask you what you do for a living, and you reply with, “I’m an archivist.” Their response, “Oh, like in Indiana Jones?” Now, there are a few ways to handle this situation. One, flip every table you can find and drop to your knees shouting at superhero-level “NO!” before setting fire to an expensive coat and leaving a you-shaped Bugs Bunny-esque hole in the wall as you disappear into the wilderness. Two, internalize their ignorance and drive it deep down into the void that was once your soul before everyone started making that same statement. Or three, take the more contemplative approach and explain what an archivist is and why the comparison to Indiana Jones isn’t accurate. I’d recommend the third option, mainly because it’s less psychologically damaging and you’re less likely to be arrested for property damage. But to each their own. Kidding aside, the truth of the matter is that I’ve gotten the Indiana Jones remark more times than I can count, which led me to wonder why that reference is so prevalent. Is it because archaeologist, Indy’s actual profession in the films, and archivist contain the same arch- root word? For the record, archive comes from the Greek arkheia meaning “public records,” which stems from arkhē meaning “government” while archaeology stems from the Greek arkhaios meaning “ancient.”1 Or, is it a genuine misconception due to the fact that the closing scene of Raiders of the Lost Ark is the only pop culture frame of reference most people have of archives? From what I can tell, it’s a combination of the two.
