Alliances were broken in the game and outside of the game, these were records that were broken this season: Network 10 • National total average audience (including 7 day television and broadcast video on-demand (BVOD)): 1.14 million. UP six per cent year on year. A CBS Company • Capital city total average audience: 912,000. UP ten per cent year on year. • National television average audience: 1.06 million. UP four per cent year on year. • Capital city television average audience: 823,000. UP seven per cent year on year. • 10 Play (7 day BVOD) average audience: 82,000. UP 37 per cent year on year. Across social, it was the most talked about entertainment show during its run. Total social interactions on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter soared 144 per cent year on year to 1.14m interactions, according to Nielsen Social Content Ratings. Australian Survivor’s 10 Play companion show, The Jury Villa, which followed the journey of jury members after they are eliminated from the game, achieved an average BVOD audience of 52,000, UP 64 per cent year on year. In the important advertising demographics, Australian Survivor was a challenge beast and across its run was the #1 show in under 50s and all key demos (16 to 39s, 18 to 49s and 25 to 54s). This season’s average capital city commercial shares gave 10 an advantage: • Under 50s: 34.1 per cent. (Up 4 points on 2018) • 16 to 39s: 38.5 per cent. (Up 6.2 points on 2018) • 18 to 49s: 35.0 per cent. (Up 4.2 points on 2018) • 25 to 54s: 32.6 per cent. (Up 3.7 points on 2018) Network 10’s chief content officer Beverley McGarvey said: “From the gameplay to the blindsides, the contestants to the challenges, we’ve really enjoyed bringing this season to audiences. “The contestants gave it their all, right until the end. The final endurance challenge was the longest we’ve had across all seasons – six hours and 40 minutes. Congratulations to Baden Gilbert who secured his place in the final two after winning the challenge. And congratulations to our 2019 winner, Pia Miranda, for outwitting, outplaying and outlasting our phenomenal group of contestants. Media Release “Pia played an incredible and understated game which ultimately won her the title of sole survivor in a unanimous vote. A very deserving winner. “I’d like to extend thanks to our contestants who put everything on the line during the game, our brilliant production partners Endemol Shine Australia, excellent host Jonathan LaPaglia and everyone at 10 who worked tirelessly on sharing the Survivor story with the rest of Australia. The penultimate episode of the season, which broke hearts across Australia as fan favourite and people’s champ Luke Toki was eliminated, was the highest rating episode of the season (excluding the finale) attracting an average metro audience of 927,000, 1.09 million nationally. The most-watched episode on 10 Play was episode 22 which saw Luke Toki play a tribal advantage to blindside Abbey Holmes. The episode was watched by 97,000 across 7 days on BVOD. Network 10 A CBS Company The most popular episode of The Jury Villa was the episode that saw old rivals contender Shaun Hampson and David Genat reunited out of the game after their respective blindsides. This was watched by 58,000 across 7 days on 10 Play. Network 10’s chief sales officer Rod Prosser said: “This season, Australian Survivor delivered game changing results for our sponsors. I’d like to thank those who have supported us through our biggest season ever. We would not have been able to achieve such a successful season without you. “Six seasons in and it’s fantastic to see the show continuing to break creative boundaries for brands and advertisers. Bring on season seven!” As for whether next year’s All-Stars season can beat this one? Well, this challenge is on. Want to know more?

  • 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.

    Centrality in dynamic competition networks Anthony Bonato1, Nicole Eikmeier2, David F. Gleich3, and Rehan Malik1 1 Ryerson University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 2 Grinnell College, Grinnell, IA, USA 3 Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN, USA Abstract. Competition networks are formed via adversarial interactions between actors. The Dynamic Competition Hypothesis predicts that influential actors in competition networks should have a large number of common out-neighbors with many other nodes. We empirically study this idea as a centrality score and find the measure predictive of importance in several real-world networks including food webs, conflict networks, and voting data from Survivor. 1 Introduction While social networks are often studied from the perspective of positive interactions such as friend- ship or followers, the impact of negative social interaction on their structure and evolution cannot be ignored. Structural balance theory posits positive and negative ties between actors in social networks, and assumes such signed networks will stabilize so that triples of actors are either all mutually friends or possess common adversaries; see [12], and [9] for a modern treatment. The pre- diction of the signs of edges in a social network was previously studied [15,18,21]. Further, negative interactions as a model for edges was studied in the context of negatively correlated stocks in mar- ket graphs [4], and in the spatial location of cities as a model to predict the rise of conflicts and violence [11]. Even in the highly cited Zachary Karate club network [22], the negative interaction between the administrator and instructor was the impetus for the split of the club participants into two communities.

Seawalls in Samoa: A Look at Their Environmental, Social and Economic Implications Sawyer Lawson Project Advisor: Espen Ronneberg Academic Director: Jackie Fa’asisila S.I.T. 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.
