The score was 28-26 as one of Gaston’s best shooters approached the line‚ she was set to take two foul shots. She was a stoutly young girl‚ who had the slight resemblance of a boy. It was a wonder she was one of their best free-throw shooters when her shot form looked like a cross between a flying squirrel taking flight‚ and a swimmer swimming. The away team’s bench sounded off a mighty cheer for the girl‚ then the ref tossed her the ball and all fell silent‚ so silent that you could hear the girl’s

primary school pupils says it is wrong to link bad behaviour to TV viewing. Although researchers found a small correlation between the two‚ they say other influences‚ such as parenting styles‚ most probably explain the link. But they still say "limit screen time".
