GT Jams: A New Sound on the Playground

FORT PAYNE, Ala., June 26 -- GameTime is once again
revolutionizing the way kids play, with GT Jams! GT Jams outdoor musical
instruments provide opportunities for children to be introduced to
percussion, tonal, and vocal instruments and discover the expressive art of
music during play. Patterned after ancient African and Caribbean
instruments, GT Jams brings history to life in a fun and physically
beneficial activity unlike anything kids have ever experienced. Almost
anyone can play music and it is this culture of inclusion that makes it a
perfect addition to any playground. This type of music education can also
foster an appreciation and interest in other cultures.

These sturdy rotationally molded plastic instruments are designed to be
visually appealing and to produce a quality sound. GT Jams freestanding
play events and structural components also offer a variety of possible
innovative configurations, like drum circles, to best suit your individual
space constraints. A great outlet for imagination through structured or
free play, GT Jams brings any playground to life by introducing sound and
encouraging rhythmic movement. GameTime also offers decorative music notes
to theme your system, as well as a music note bench for the listening
audience. In addition, your order will be accompanied by a GT Jam Session
Playbook which offers a variety of standard-based play activities that
correlate to The National Standards for Music Education and Physical
Education. This unique playground program also affords instructors the

WWE chairman promotes `Raw' with $1M giveaway

LOS ANGELES —

Wrestling fans eager to get their hands on Vince McMahon's money will have to jump through a few hoops first.


The World Wrestling Entertainment chairman announced during last week's "Monday Night Raw" that he would give away $1 million of his own wealth to viewers, but he didn't specify when or how it would be distributed.


The cash will be given away as part of a lengthy promotional sweepstakes, McMahon and the WWE told The Associated Press.


For a chance to win a part - but not all - of the $1 million, viewers must pre-register on WWE.com and then watch the beginning of "Raw" each week to receive a special code, which viewers must tell McMahon if he calls them during the live broadcast.


The code will change each week of the promotion and will not be revealed until the beginning of each episode.


"People can view this as my own version of an economic stimulus plan to benefit our viewers," McMahon told The Associated Press.


While the USA Network series continues to be one of the most watched shows on cable TV, its ratings have recently declined. Last Monday's episode received the lowest ratings in five years, according to Nielsen Media Research.


McMahon said his goal with the giveaway, which begins June 9, is to reward loyal "Raw" fans and draw new and former viewers back to the show.
