Tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets across France on Tuesday, as unions and teachers joined high school students who for days have been demanding better learning conditions in protests punctuated by violent confrontations.
Students have blocked the entrances to hundreds of high schools for 15- to 17-year-olds since late September, complaining of missing teachers, overloaded timetables, dilapidated classrooms and buildings that cannot cope with rising temperatures.
Unions, rights groups and the children have accused the authorities of using disproportionate force -- a police stun grenade tore the hand off one teenager on Monday and another youngster had his teeth knocked out last week after police fired a grenade launcher at his head.
"I'm afraid for my future," Selma, 15, told AFP without giving her surname, among the thousands marching in the country's second largest city of Marseille.
The unrest has erupted with just months to go before the 2027 election to choose a successor to centrist President Emmanuel Macron, with far-right veteran candidate Marine Le Pen riding high in the polls despite a graft conviction.

Chrissy Teigen's kids looked completely done with the heat in a new family photo from their latest outing. The adorable snapshot showed the family enjoying fast food together. The kids seemed to be doing everything possible to escape the soaring temperatures.
Chrissy Teigen shared the photo on Instagram with the hilarious caption, "we are not a family built for heat." And judging by the kids' expressions and outfits, she may have a point.
The photo showed Teigen sitting with her children at an In-N-Out Burger joint. The kids gathered around a table filled with burgers, fries, and drinks. However, their clothing choices made the heat situation even more amusing.
One child wore a cozy light-colored sweatshirt, while another sported an orange sweatshirt. A third child also appeared bundled up in a sweatshirt. Their layered looks immediately caught fans' attention, especially considering the family's complaint about the weather.
Teigen's kids' heat moment quickly caught followers' attention. One commenter wrote, "Try heat without sweaters haha." Another joked, "The kids In the sweatshirts? Idk how kids can do that." Someone else offered a sweeter response, writing, "You're a family built for sharing JOY ~ !!!"

It's going to be a sweltering temperature of 100 degrees at Dodger Stadium in Game 1 of the NLDS against the Atlanta Braves, and it still isn't stopping Alex Vesia's wife, Kayla Vesia, from doing a full face of makeup.
On Saturday morning, Kayla Vesia posted a video of her doing her makeup on TikTok while she was preparing for the game.
In the video, the viral audio of Kyle Jenner speaking about her relationship with makeup was playing while Kayla Vesia was lipsynching the audio.
"I don't feel like I need makeup. A lot of the time I'm not wearing makeup, but…. No, I need makeup," the Jenner audio said.

The heatwave is expected to last for nearly a week.
A dangerous, long-duration heatwave is sweeping through much of Southern California beginning Friday, creating increased fire risk in the region.
Extreme to moderate heat warnings are in place for more than 34 million Californians, with temperatures forecast to reach between 92 and over 105 degrees, including along the coastal plains.
The National Weather Service in Los Angeles warned the conditions have created a high risk of "large and fast-moving fires" in the region's valleys and mountains.
The heatwave is expected to begin on Friday and last through at least Oct. 8.

October Nymex natural gas (NGV26) on Friday closed up +0.011 (+0.38%).
Nat-gas prices recovered from a 1-week low on Friday and settled higher on some pre-weekend short covering. Nat-gas prices initially moved lower on Friday amid forecasts of cooler US weather, which could reduce nat-gas demand from electricity providers for air conditioning. The Commodity Weather Group said Friday that forecasts shifted cooler, with above-average temperatures now covering a smaller portion of the South and Southeast from September 23 to October 2.

With the heat index at 110 degrees before kickoff at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium and the temperature on the artificial turf at Campbell-Williams Field reaching 160 degrees, the Ohio State Buckeyes were the only team on the field for pregame warmups.
Seeking an edge in a game with a betting line set at 1.5 points during the week, the Texas Longhorns were across the street in the school's brand-new, $80-million dollar Frank & Wofford Denius Football Training Complex.
"Figured they could go out in the heat," Texas senior quarterback Arch Manning said.
The decision was made by director of football sports medicine Donald Nguyen.
"You save yourself a little bit from the heat — it's all sweat that leaves your body when you go out there in the sun, so definitely helped, I thought," said fifth-year defensive tackle Hero Kanu.

The Seattle Seahawks are 1-0, so it's time to start scouting their next opponent.
The Arizona Cardinals shocked the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1 with a 26-14 win in which Mike LaFleur became the franchise's first non-interim head coach to win their first game in charge. The matchup was projected as one of the opening week's most lopsided in favor of Jim Harbaugh and Los Angeles, who were coming off an 11-6 record in 2025. Los Angeles made the playoffs and lost to the eventual AFC champion New England Patriots in the Wild Card round, albeit without either of their starting offensive tackles—Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt—who were both expected to boost the offense upon their return this season. Arizona's defense had other ideas, and became one of the biggest surprises of any unit across Week 1's Sunday slate, while their offense simply looked more talented and outplayed LA with complementary football. That's what the Seahawks will be looking for in Week 2.
The Cardinals defense played with an energy that stifled Justin Herbert and new offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who only held the ball for 51 plays and 22:29. Arizona ran 21 more plays and had the ball for 15:02 more of the game (more than an entire quarter?!) When watching this game, the attitude from Arizona's defense seemed to disregard the stature of its opponent. LaFleur retained defensive coordinator Nick Rallis, who Phoenix-based sports radio host John Gambadoro credits for helping set the temperature.
It's easy to see Rallis' results. The intensity of the defense that showed up on tape is just as evident on paper. His Cardinals defense ranks second to last in blitz rate so far this season, yet they held McDaniel and Herbert to a measly 2-for-8 on third downs and 0-for-3 on fourth downs. Their front seven was far more formidable than the Chargers on the day, producing 17 pressures on 55 snaps while LA could only muster 12 on 75 opportunities. On the flipside, the Cardinals' offensive line has been projected as their downfall this season. The Seahawks have a clear opportunity to establish their presence as a physically dominant team if they kill the Cardinals momentum. This will be the game for elite run blockers like AJ Barner and run stoppers like Uchenna Nwosu to put the new age film community on watch.
Offensive talent is far from the problem in Arizona. Trey McBride is the best tight end in football. They've got two running backs in Jeremiyah Love and Tyler Allgeier who can both be a problem for any team. Marvin Harrison Jr. was a matchup nightmare against the Seahawks last season. In Week 3, he had one of the best battles against Devon Witherspoon and Riq Woolen of any wide receiver all year. When partnered with a seasoned veteran quarterback with a quick release, they were able to make life easy on their OL. Jacoby Brissett looked like at least an average starting QB, completing 27/37 passes for a respectable 73.0% completion rate while taking only 1 sack on 39 dropbacks. Loo

Tom Holland and Zendaya are reportedly planning to install a climate-controlled room in one of their several properties to preserve her more than $269,000 wedding gown.
Holland, 30, and Zendaya, 30, said "I do" during an intimate wedding celebration at the Beaverbrook Hotel in Surrey, just outside London, on Aug. 4.
The actress marked the occasion by donning a stunning lace Schiaparelli gown featuring long sleeves and a high neckline.
Now, Zendaya is reportedly taking extraordinary measures to ensure the sentimental garment—which has never been pictured or seen publicly—is carefully preserved for years to come.
Sources told The Sun that the actress wants to keep the gown close by rather than entrusting it to an outside storage company. The dress reportedly needs to be stored at a temperature between 59 and 64 degrees.

General Motors is developing a domestic battery supply chain it expects to complete within two to three years, even as the company currently relies on some Chinese-sourced materials for its existing battery production.
Kurt Kelty, GM's vice president of battery and sustainability, told CNBC that the company's near-term goal is full domestic sourcing. "We're developing a supply chain such that, two years from now, three years from now, it will be domestic," Kelty said. "That's what we're aiming for — when we get into market, we've got a domestic source for that."
Kelty's comments center on sodium-ion battery cells that GM is developing with Denver-based startup Peak Energy for use in stationary energy storage systems for homes, businesses, and data centers. GM expects to reach commercial production of those cells around 2029, according to CNBC. A GM spokesperson confirmed to CNBC that the company would apply the same domestic sourcing priority to battery cells for future electric vehicles.
Unlike conventional lithium iron phosphate chemistry, sodium-ion cells are built around sodium from soda ash — a resource the U.S. holds in abundance — sidestepping the lithium and ferrous sulfate supply chains that China currently controls. Kelty added that sodium-ion cells handle a broader span of temperatures, which means they can function without the active thermal management that drives up the cost and complexity of stationary storage installations.
"The better thing to do is try to leapfrog, come up with a different technology that's actually better that we can actually source here," Kelty told CNBC.

WASHINGTON, Sept 11 (Reuters) - The contractor responsible for renovating the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington told U.S. President Donald Trump's administration that errors in its work and flaws ‌in the repair plan caused the pool's liner to peel and break loose, the New ‌York Times reported on Friday, citing documents it reviewed.
Trump has repeatedly blamed problems with the newly renovated pool, including its new blue paint peeling off, on vandalism.
According to the New York Times, citing the documents, Atlantic Industrial Coatings found problems in the design and execution of the renovation.
Workers did not spray enough primer in some areas, the contractor said in the cited documents, and layers of the liner included incompatible chemicals. The bottom layer blistered and loosened ‌as the chemical on top reached ⁠a hotter temperature than the one underneath could withstand, the New York Times said.
The documents include the contractor's reports to the government and daily progress updates from ⁠the National Park Service over the past two months, the New York Times said.

Number-one ranked Ohio State is traveling to Austin to take on the fourth-ranked Longhorns this weekend in what has become the most-anticipated college football game of the season so far.
According to ticketdata.com, the cheapest tickets available for the game are $463 - nearly three times higher than any other college football game this week. However, not only are the tickets hot, but the weather will be too. Game day temperatures in Austin will rise to dangerous levels, with heat index values rising to nearly 110 degrees.
Saturday's temperatures will be similar to last week's game against Texas State, during which Austin-Travis County EMS transported 13 fans from DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium to surrounding local hospitals due to heat-related illnesses.
Temperatures in Austin are expected to be in the mid-90s at noon Saturday before rising to 100-102 degrees by 3 to 4 p.m. Due to elevated humidity levels, the heat index, or "feel-like" temperature, is likely to reach as high as 108 degrees. There will be a slight breeze, as southeast winds are expected at around 10 mph.
Shown are the expected heat index values across Texas at 4 p.m. Saturday. Austin will likely be experiencing temps that feel like 108 degrees. (WeatherBell)

Tennessee's football game against Furman on Sept. 5 tied the second-highest kickoff temperature at Neyland Stadium in recorded history (1950-present), according to the University of Tennessee.
The Vols', 56-9, season-opening victory was the fifth game at Neyland Stadium with a kickoff temperature at or above 90 degrees.
The highest kickoff temperature at Neyland Stadium was 91 degrees versus Florida on Sept. 24, 2016.
Other football games with 90-degree temperatures were against ETSU on Sept. 8, 2018, Southern Miss on Sept. 8, 2007 and Wyoming on Sept. 4, 1999.
101,915 were in attendance for the Tennessee-Furman game, marking a 28th consecutive sellout at Neyland Stadium and a streak that dates to Sept. 17, 2022.

We all celebrate the beginning of a new college football season because, no matter what kind of nonsense is happening off the field, we believe that once the competition begins it will unfold the way it always has.
Let the best team win.
That didn't happen in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on Saturday night. Not even close. Instead, the decision to give Michigan an extra second against Western Michigan — when the live video showed the clock expired and Bryce Underwood's Hail Mary pass still in the air — could turn into one of the biggest on-field scandals in college football history.
Welcome to another year of the Misery Index, a weekly feature where Yahoo Sports takes the temperature of college football fan bases that, as college football fan bases tend to do, react badly to losses, or sometimes even wins.

JACKSONVILLE — Jacksonville State football home opener with Eastern Kentucky has been delayed due to weather.
The delay came in the middle of the second quarter as a thunderstorm passed through Calhoun County. The delay started at 6:52 p.m. CT and will last 30 minutes past the last lightning strike in an eight-mile radius of AmFirst Stadium.
The Weather Channel gives a 24% chance of rain for the six and seven o'clock hours as scattered showers come through East Alabama. Another concern is the heat. As of 5:55 p.m., Jacksonville had a feel-like temperature of 105℉, with a temperature of 95℉.
The Gamecocks led 21-0 at the time of the delay thanks to three touchdowns by Jamill Williams, who connected with Caden Creel. There was 11:30 left in the second quarter.
The Gamecocks season started with a 33-7 blowout loss to North Dakota State as the Bison scored the final 26 points of the game. Jax State was held under 200 yards for the first time since 2021.

In the quantum computing investment sector, two popular stock picks are IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) and Rigetti Computing (NASDAQ: RGTI). Both of these quantum computing upstarts have a long way to go before becoming a viable investment option. However, by looking at their respective technologies, investors can get an idea as to which company has a better chance of reaching the finish line.
Let's take a look at these two and see which is the better stock pick.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
The primary way most companies do quantum computing is via superconducting. This involves cooling a particle in a chamber to near absolute zero temperatures so it can be controlled for the purposes of quantum computing. Rigetti utilizes this technique, but that's also the same process that many of the legacy tech companies are using. That may prove to be a problem, as Rigetti is competing against some heavyweights with huge resources.
IonQ is taking a far different approach. There's really ****** ody else doing what IonQ is doing, which could be good or bad. Instead of cooling a chamber, IonQ uses lasers to pinpoint and cool a particle, then utilizes an ion trap that's similar to a maze to trap the particle and utilize it for quantum computing purposes. This yields superior accuracy, but at the cost of processing speed.

College football game ends in bizarre tie after extreme heat stops overtime originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
College football delivered one of its strangest results Saturday, but the final score had nothing to do with a controversial penalty, replay review or missed call. Colorado School of Mines and Washburn finished in a 16-16 tie after dangerous heat conditions prevented the Division II programs from playing overtime in Topeka, Kansas.
The game was originally scheduled for noon CT before officials moved it to 7:05 p.m. It was later shifted again, this time to 9:05 a.m., in an effort to avoid the worst of a heat wave affecting the region. Even the early start was not enough.
The wet-bulb temperature exceeded the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics ****** ociation's safety protocols by the end of regulation, according to Yahoo Sports. The heat index had climbed to approximately 107 degrees. Because temperatures were not expected to return to an acceptable level for several hours, the schools agreed to end the game instead of waiting until the evening to play overtime.
Colorado School of Mines had an opportunity to avoid the unusual finish.

TULSA — The Oklahoma State football team dressed wisely, going all white here in Tulsa for Saturday's season opener.
While it's 97 degrees in Tulsa, the heat index has reached triple digits. OSU's radio broadcast reported the on-field temperature is 161 degrees at H.A. Chapman Stadium.
I went down on the field for a little bit with our guy Ben Hutchens. We put our hand on the turf and might as well have been touching a stovetop.
I can't imagine what it'd be like running around out there in pads. OSU has several tents set up on their sideline. Tulsa's bench is shaded. The heat is going to be a real factor here today.

Blame the heat for a tie between Colorado School of Mines and Washburn on Saturday.
No, really. Blame the heat.
The two Division II teams agreed to end their Saturday morning game tied at 16-16 after Colorado School of Mines missed a game-winning field goal late in the fourth quarter. The game was set to go to overtime, but the wet bulb temperature had already exceeded the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics **** ociation's temperature protocols. Washburn, the home team, is a member of the MIAA.
The game had little chance of resuming anytime soon if the teams wanted to play overtime. Thanks to the heat dome that's currently occupying the middle part of the country, the temperature in Topeka was set to be around 100 degrees on Saturday with the heat index not dropping below 95 degrees until after sunset at 7:49 p.m.
The game was originally scheduled for a noon kickoff before it was pushed to 7 p.m. earlier in the week. With a forecast for temperatures still well into the 90s at that time and Colorado School of Mines' travel to take into account, the teams then agreed to play the game at 9 a.m. in an attempt to avoid what ended up happening anyway.

SIERRA DE LA PANDERA, Spain (AP) — Enric Mas added to his lead of the Spanish Vuelta on a mountainous 14th stage won by Marco Brenner on Saturday.
Mas tacked some 25 seconds onto his advantage over Primož Roglič after dropping the four-time former winner on the final climb and linking up with a front-runner from his Movistar team.
Félix Gall crossed with Mas and moved into second place ahead of Roglič in the general classification. Gall is 2 minutes, 6 seconds behind Mas, with Roglič falling to 2:10 behind the leader.
Brenner won the grueling 151.9-kilometer (94.4-mile) stage in high temperatures after he bettered his fellow breakaway riders and edged Santiago Buitrago at the finish. Brenner had time to zip up his Tudor team suit just as he crossed the line in 4 hours, 15 minutes, 9 seconds. It was the 24-year-old German rider's first win at a grand tour.
The stage was held in an area just north of Granada that was under a heat warning with highs forecast for 38 degrees Celsius (100 Fahrenheit) in Jaen, where the day's racing started. Riders tackled a pair of category-two climbs as they rode through a landscape of sunbaked olive groves before a final ascent to the category-one Sierra de la Pandera.
