Celebrity with Amanda Keller Survivor – Jonathan Lapaglia CELEBRITY WITH AMANDA KELLER SURVIVOR – JONATHAN LAPAGLIA Amanda travels to Samoa to catch up with Survivor host Jonathan LaPaglia. Last year, In Australia, Amanda set Jonathan a number of unorthodox challenges to see how he’d go in her version of the game but this year he will set the challenges and the rules to see who will be the ultimate Survivor. ABOUT AUSTRALIAN SURVIVOR Australian Survivor is returning for a brand new season in 2017. Spanning generations, this year’s castaways are gathered from all across the country, from all different backgrounds, but all with the same goal to take out the title of Sole Survivor. The show sees 24 castaways competing over 55 days, battling the elements and each other until only one remains. Hosted by actor Jonathan LaPaglia, the series is filmed in Samoa on the island of Upolu. Castaways are initially divided into tribes that will face off in physical and mental challenges; some for rewards of food, shelter or other useful items, other challenges are for immunity at the Tribal Council. The tribes that do not win immunity must gather at Tribal Council to debrief about the challenges with Jonathan, before they cast their votes to eliminate one of their own tribe members. Contestants will also have the opportunity to win personal immunity as around the island there are a number of hidden immunity items, these idols, when played at Tribal Council, mean votes cannot be cast against them. As numbers begin to dwindle tribes will be merged from three to two, then eventually to just one tribe, where it will be every castaway for themselves, until there are only two left standing. At this point the power shifts back to the 9 castaways most recently voted off the island – they will form the jury who decide who will be named the sole survivor and win the prize of $500,000. The hit 2016 season of Australian Survivor saw 24-year-old Account Executive and life-long Survivor-fan Kristie Bennett upset fan-favourite Lee Carseldine, to take out the $500,000 and title of Sole Survivor. Despite not having won a previous individual challenge, Kristie won the Final Immunity Challenge and voted out Lee’s close ally, El Rowland. At Final Tribal Council, even though Lee had wielded more power for the duration of the game, the jury ultimately valued Kristie's tenacity and underdog status, rewarding her with 8 of the 9 jury votes. ABOUT JONATHAN LAPAGLIA Born 31 August 1969 in Adelaide, Jonathan LaPaglia is best known to Australian audiences as an actor but his first profession was actually as a doctor – he worked as an emergency- room physician for a number of years before giving it away to follow in his older brother Anthony LaPaglia’s footsteps. Since his career change, Jonathan has appeared in numerous US series including Cold Case, Burn Notice, Castle, Bones, NCIS and The Sopranos, and starred in acclaimed local dramas The Slap, Love Child and Underbelly. In April 2016 Jonathan was announced as the host of Network Ten’s reboot of Australian Survivor. It was a pick that surprised many, not least Jonathan himself having never hosted before but loving a challenge, he jumped at the chance. To prepare for the show he binged on some of the 32 seasons of the American series, so much so that his wife and 11 year-old daughter also became obsessed with the show. To further prepare for the role Jonathan got the chance to pick the brain of American Survivor host and Executive Producer Jeff Probst. The pair met over coffee where Jonathan grilled Jeff about the complexities of the role, especially how to helm the critical tribal councils. “His job in that part of the show is to try and peel back layers and press buttons to try and expose people”. Jonathan received much praise as the host of Australian Survivor, with fans observing he was an excellent substitute for Probst. And while after the first season, he admitted he was mentally and physically exhausted by the series, when the second season was announced confirmed he would “absolutely” be back on board for hosting duties. While he says he has no favourites among the competitors, he does admire them for their performances in challenges and game play at camp, and sympathises when they are sent packing. In the first season alone he had to utter the iconic line, “The tribe has spoken” to all but one of the 24 contestants as they were eliminated. “I find it a heartbreaking moment,” he admits. “When I’m there snuffing out their torch I’m literally killing their dreams.” WEBLINKS http://tenplay.com.au/channel-ten/australian-survivor .

  • George Dorin - Survivor George Dorin Was Born July 14, 1936, in Paris, France
    1 Coppel Speakers Bureau George Dorin - Survivor George Dorin was born July 14, 1936, in Paris, France. His life would forever change when the Nazis invaded France in 1940. After George’s father, Max Eli Zlotogorski, was taken by the Nazis, his mother, Regina, made the difficult decision to place George and his sister, Paulette, in hiding separately. George’s father was sent to Pithiviers internment camp between 1941 and 1942, then to Auschwitz, where he was murdered. His mother was first taken to Drancy and then to Auschwitz, where she was murdered. Paulette was hidden by various families while George was sent to live on a farm with the Chemin family. Passing as the child of Maria and Louis Chemin, George helped on the farm with their children, Louie Jr. and Denise. When the Nazis advanced near the farm, George was temporarily hidden by a priest in a nearby nunnery until it was safe to return to the Chemin home. In 1947, George was temporarily reunited with his sister before they were adopted by different families. Although separated after the war, George kept in touch with the Chemin family throughout his adult life. In 1948, George immigrated to the United States where he was adopted by Francis and Harry Dorin of New York. He entered the United States Airforce in 1954 and was trained as a medical technician. After his military service, George settled in Ohio where he opened Gedico International Inc., a successful printing company. George met his wife, Marion, in 1990, and together the couple has five children.

Shirley (Ella Scott Lynch) is confronted with the return of her first child, and Matron (Mandy McElhinney) is determined to see the re-opening of Stanton House. Joan (Jessica Marais) struggles to have it all – husband, baby and career - and Annie (Gracie Gilbert) struggles to make ends meet. Patty’s (Harriet Dyer) business is booming, whilst Viv (Sophie Hensser) is in desperate search of a connection … and Martha (Miranda Tapsell) is faced with a question that is hard to answer. Times they are a-changing. It’s 1970 and times they are a-changing. The Vietnam War is dividing the world, music and the media are shifting old ideals, and the lines between friendship, love and marriage are blurring. It’s a month after we left the young women of Kings Cross Hospital and Stanton House, and all of them are now in the throes of dealing with the choices and ramifications of the events of series two. Dr Joan Millar (Jessica Marais) continues her career as one of the country’s most promising obstetricians in this brave new world of laparoscopic surgery and burgeoning fertility treatments. But juggling a baby, a husband who is facing manslaughter charges, as well as the inconveniences of living on-site at the hospital, takes its toll. A sudden infection and emergency surgery leaves Joan facing a life of infertility, and it’s not long before she must face the truth of McNaughton’s (Jonathan LaPaglia) part in Greg Mathieson’s death – a death that has led to a manslaughter charge and the possibility of Jim (Matthew Le Nevez) facing 12 years behind bars.

Samoa, Spring 2011 Abstract: This study concerns the environmental, economic and social implications of seawalls in Samoa. Information for this study was gathered using a combination of secondary sources and primary sources including interviews, surveys and participant observation. Given the cultural and economic importance of Samoa’s coastline and the fact that seawalls, which already occupy much of Samoa’s coast, are becoming more abundant, it is important to understand the implications of building them. The researcher found that partially due to climate change and sand mining, Samoa’s coastline has become increasingly threatened by erosion and coastal retreat.

  • Narrative Pleasure and Uncertainty Due to Chance in Survivor
    Mary Beth Haralovich Michael Trosset Department of Media Arts Department of Mathematics University of Arizona College of William and Mary 520 621-7800 757 221-2040 [email protected] [email protected] “Expect the Unexpected”: Narrative Pleasure and Uncertainty Due to Chance in Survivor In the wrap episode of Survivor’s fifth season (Survivor 5: Thailand), host Jeff Probst expressed wonder at the unpredictability of Survivor. Five people each managed to get through the game to be the sole survivor and win the million dollars, yet each winner was different from the others, in personality, in background, and in game strategy. Probst takes evident pleasure in the fact that even he cannot predict the outcomes of Survivor, as close to the action as he is. Probst advised viewers interested in improving their Survivor skills to become acquainted with mathematician John Nash’s theory of games. Probst’s evocation on national television of Nash’s game theory invites both fans and critics to apply mathematics to playing and analyzing Survivor.1 While a game-theoretic analysis of Survivor is the subject for another essay, this essay explores our understanding of narrative pleasure of Survivor through mathematical modes of inquiry. Such exploration assumes that there is something about Survivor that lends itself to mathematical analysis. That is the element of genuine, unscripted chance. It is the presence of chance and its almost irresistible invitation to try to predict outcomes that distinguishes the Survivor reality game hybrid. In The Pleasure of the Text, Roland Barthes explored how narrative whets our desire to know what happens next.2 In Survivor’s reality game, the pleasure of “what happens next” is not based on the cleverness of scriptwriters or the narrowly evident skills of the players.
