Gladiators 2000 is a health focused, educational and dynamic sport competition with a very clear message for kids aged 13-16: develop a healthy body and a healthy mind. Both body and mind are nurtured in the program. Teams composed of kids are competing against each other in various games that require an alert and agile body. The program is interspersed with mini educational lessons that address health, structure and function of the human body and environment. The games proposed in the program are not only physical but also intellectual challenges. Quizzes that assess the content of the mini lessons are embedded into the games as well. Other topics like geography, language arts, literature and science are quizzed in a dynamic relay race. The nice blend of physical and mental challenge reinforces the program's message that children learn better if they are eating healthy food and practicing some kind of physical activity.

Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other non-core educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. §73.671, NOTES 2 and 3.

KZJO endeavors to air public service announcements of educational and informational value geared towards children within our children's programming. A list of children's PSAs that aired during the quarter - including dates and times - can be found in the station's public inspection file. KZJO ceased analog broadcasts on June 12, 2009. Thus, there were no analog broadcasts during the reporting period so the answer to Question 7(b) should be "no." The primary signal of station KCPQ, Tacoma WA is simulcast on KZJO's channel 22.2 to improve signal coverage. The core programming for that channel is reported on KCPQ's Form FCC 398. KMYQ call letters changed to KZJO on 9/13/10. Wild About Animals/Awesome Adventures 9/25 preemptions were due to technical difficulties with our Louth traffic/automation system. Listings for 3rd quarter reflect fall season schedule changes.
