Legendary Victors to Face Off on CBS' 'Survivor: Winners at War' Legendary Victors to Face Off on CBS' 'Survivor: Winners at War' 01.15.2020 CBS on Wednesday announced the biggest Survivor thus far in the show's 39 seasons: 20 of the game's most legendary players are returning to outwit, outlast and outplay each other for a grand prize of $2 million in season 40, Winners at War. "To celebrate and honor this momentous 20-year milestone, we created the biggest battle in Survivor history!" said executive producer and host Jeff Probst in a statement. "For the first time ever, 20 winners, who have masterfully proven they can outwit, outplay and outlast in this game, will face off to determine who is the greatest player of all time!" This year, the show is shot in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji but when the show debuted on May 31, 2000, the cast was marooned on the beaches of Borneo. Since then, nearly 600 castaways have played the game, with only 38 taking the title of Sole Survivor. Of those, only Sandra Diaz-Twine has won the title twice. Early-season winners will face new elements, such as immunity idols and rewards like fire tokens, that didn't exist when they first played, providing a whole new challenge. The 40th season is taking place in Fiji's Mamanuca Islands. Survivor: Winners at War opens in a special two-hour premiere on Wednesday, Feb. 12 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. The 20 winners who will compete are: Adam Klein (28) Winner of "Millennials vs. Gen-X" (2016) Hometown: Burlingame, CA Current Residence: Los Angeles Occupation: Keynote Speaker and Host Amber Mariano (40) Winner of "All-Stars" (2004) Hometown: Beaver, PA Current Residence: Pensacola, FL Occupation: Director of Marketing and Communications Ben Driebergen (36) Winner of "Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers" (2017) Hometown: Boise, ID Current Residence: Boise, ID Occupation: Real estate/stay at home dad Danni Boatwright (43) Winner of "Guatemala" (2005) Hometown: Tonganoxie, KS Current Residence: Shawnee, KS Occupation: Owner of Sideline Chic Denise Stapley (48) Winner of "Philippines" (2012) Hometown: Marion, Iowa Current Residence: Marion, Iowa Occupation: LMHC, & AASECT Certified Sex Therapist Ethan Zohn (45) Winner of "Africa" (2001) Hometown: Lexington, MA Current Residence: Hillsborough, NH Occupation: Social Entrepreneur and Keynote Speaker Jeremy Collins (41) Winner of "Second Chance" (2015) Hometown: Cambridge, MA Current Residence: Foxboro, MA Occupation: Firefighter Kim Spradlin-Wolfe (36) Winner of "One World" (2012) Hometown: San Antonio, Texas Current Residence: San Antonio, Texas Occupation: Interior Designer Michele Fitzgerald (29) Winner of "Kaôh Rŕng" (2016) Hometown: Freehold, NJ Current Residence: Hoboken, NJ Occupation: Business Development Manager Natalie Anderson (33) Winner of "San Juan del Sur" (2014) Hometown: Colombo, Sri Lanka Current Residence: Edgewater, NJ Occupation: CrossFit Trainer Nick Wilson (28) Winner of "David vs. Goliath" (2018) Hometown: Williamsburg, KY Current Residence: Williamsburg, KY Occupation: Attorney Parvati Shallow (36) Winner of "Fans vs. Favorites" (2008) Hometown: Atlanta Current Residence: Los Angeles Occupation: Yoga teacher, Life Coach, and Speaker Rob Mariano (43) Winner of "Redemption Island" (2011) Hometown: Boston, MA Current Residence: Pensacola, FL Occupation: Construction Sandra Diaz-Twine (44) Winner of "Pearl Islands" (2003) & "Heroes vs. Villains" (2010) Hometown: Stamford, CT Current Residence: Riverview.

  • Letter to School Officials
    Dear School Officials, Grassroot Soccer is fighting to save the lives of children in Africa, and we need the help of your students and community! Grassroot Soccer (GRS) is an international nonprofit (Federal Tax I.D. # 43-1957920) that uses the power of soccer to prevent the spread of AIDS and save lives among those with the highest rates of new infections—youth in Africa. GRS mobilizes the most vulnerable population of youth, ages 12 – 19, to break the cycle of AIDS by engaging local coaches who equip young people with the knowledge, skills and support they need to avoid HIV. Grassroot Soccer’s founders – Ethan Zohn (Winner, Survivor: Africa), Methembe Ndlovu (former Captain, Zimbabwe National Team), Kirk Friedrich and I, Dr. Tommy Clark – all have strong ties to Africa forged while playing professional soccer together in Zimbabwe. We all had close friends infected with HIV, and many others who died of AIDS. But we also understood how dominant soccer was in the culture. This inspired us to empower the most influential community role models, our soccer teammates, to teach children about HIV transmission and prevention and developing healthy life skills. In 2006, high school and college students began organizing Grassroot Soccer 3v3 Tournaments to benefit our organization. This became an incredible awareness and fundraising platform that has raised more than $350,000 for GRS. It has also given students the opportunity to learn more about the global HIV/AIDS epidemic and has empowered them to get personally involved. Please visit www.grassrootsoccer.org/host-a-tournament to learn more about these tournaments and our fight to eliminate HIV/AIDS in Africa through soccer.

  • Yul Kwon, from Bullying Target to Reality TV Star by NPR Staff from Npr.Org  2012
    Name: Class: Yul Kwon, From Bullying Target to Reality TV Star By NPR Staff From Npr.Org 2012 Yul Kwon’s early life was mired with a host of challenges. Born to South Korean immigrants in New York, Kwon never had a positive role model from his community. In 2006, he decided to join the cast of Survivor and make a name for himself in popular culture. As you read, take notes on how Yul Kwon overcame his personal demons to become a role model for other Asian Americans. [1] Yul Kwon first earned his game-changer status when the Yale University-trained lawyer put his career on hold to compete on the CBS show Survivor in 2006. He became the first Asian- American to win that show's $1 million prize. That led to work as a special correspondent for CNN, a lecturer at the FBI Academy, and deputy chief of the Federal Communication Commission's Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau. Kwon currently hosts the news program LinkAsia on LinkTV, and recently finished hosting PBS' America Revealed, a mini documentary series "Yul J. Kwon" is licensed under CC BY 2.0. about agriculture, transportation, energy and manufacturing. Being A Target Of Bullying Kwon's early life involved a host of challenges. He was born in 1975 in New York to South Korean immigrants. He tells Tell Me More host Michel Martin he had a severe lisp as a kid, so many people assumed he was a foreigner who could not speak English properly. Kwon says he grew increasingly quiet to avoid being teased or beaten up.
