0:00:23 > 0:00:25In the lunchtime match, Liverpool are looking to leapfrog
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Manchester City and get back into third place by beating
0:00:27 > 0:00:37Southampton at Anfield.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39The current score is nil-nil.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42But the biggest match today is fifth versus sixth, as Arsenal host
0:00:42 > 0:00:43Manchester United this afternoon.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46United Manager Jose Mourinho will hope to have Chris Smalling
0:00:46 > 0:00:55back in his team as so many of his defenders are injured.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59You may have heard about the general election in the UK but today France
0:00:59 > 0:01:00is picking its new President.

0:01:03 > 0:01:08Hello, Leah, welcome to Paris, the capital city of France.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10I'm on the Champs-Elysees, a big shopping street,
0:01:10 > 0:01:12right in the city centre.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16You might be able to see the famous Arc de Triomphe, just behind me!
0:01:16 > 0:01:20And yes, across the country, millions of adults are out
0:01:20 > 0:01:22and about today, voting.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26Just like in the UK, local places, like schools have been turned
0:01:26 > 0:01:31into voting stations.
0:01:31 > 0:01:38Walking around Paris you wouldn't know much is going on.
0:01:38 > 0:01:41They've got to choose between two people to be their next president,
0:01:41 > 0:01:44a woman called Marine Le Pen and a man, Emanuel Macron.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46They're both very different, and have very different ideas
0:01:46 > 0:01:47about how to run the country.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50If you want to find out more about either of them,
0:01:50 > 0:01:52head to Newsround Online for our guides on each candidate,
0:01:52 > 0:01:56and how the vote works.
0:01:56 > 0:02:02So that's it, people here have the rest of the day
0:02:02 > 0:02:04to decide who will be in charge of their country
0:02:04 > 0:02:06for the next five years.

0:02:08 > 0:02:09to find out who wins it.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11I'll have everything you need to know.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Au revoir!
0:02:12 > 0:02:13Back to you, Leah.
0:02:13 > 0:02:15Now, recognise these things?
0:02:15 > 0:02:17We've been taking a closer look at fidget spinners!
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Have they been banned from your school?
0:02:19 > 0:02:20Are they dazzling or distracting?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Ricky's got this one.
0:02:22 > 0:02:30DANCE MUSIC.
0:02:30 > 0:02:31Fidget spinners are taking over playgrounds.
0:02:31 > 0:02:39The small toys have become the latest must-have gadget.
0:02:39 > 0:02:42My spinner is a glow-in-the-dark one.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45You get relaxed when it spins, and it's really satisfying.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48You can have challenges with other people, you can trade and you can
0:02:48 > 0:02:51customise them as well.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53These fidget spinners have got a rather surprising past.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55They were originally designed to help children with certain
0:02:55 > 0:02:58conditions like autism deal with stress.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03But these little things are causing big headaches for lots of teachers.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Sometimes children, they get distracted,
0:03:05 > 0:03:07then they don't concentrate on their work.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09They try and rush it so they can play with it,
0:03:09 > 0:03:18and they don't produce much quality work.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20They've since been banned in a number of schools,
0:03:20 > 0:03:23but here in Manchester teachers are a bit more relaxed.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25They're happy for kids to play with them, but only
0:03:25 > 0:03:27outside of the classroom.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30You can play with them at lunchtime and playtime,
0:03:30 > 0:03:32but you're not allowed to play with them during class.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35We have them banned in classes, and around the school environment.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38You're only allowed them in break time, lunch.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42We're really happy to have kids enjoying fidget
0:03:42 > 0:03:43spinners on the playground.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45We're seeing them get a lot of fun, they're
0:03:45 > 0:03:47developing their fine motor skills.
0:03:47 > 0:03:51But we have asked that they put them away as soon as they enter
0:03:51 > 0:03:54the building, so that they are not a distraction in lessons.
0:03:54 > 0:03:55We've found children were more interested in watching
0:03:55 > 0:03:57each other do tricks than they were in
0:03:57 > 0:03:59watching the teacher.
0:03:59 > 0:04:02The spinners only cost a couple of pounds, but some websites have
0:04:02 > 0:04:04started to charge a lot more, as their popularity increases.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07VIDEO: Which one is better for fidgeting?
0:04:07 > 0:04:10Online videos showing tricks have had millions of views.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Until the next big thing in the playground, it looks
0:04:12 > 0:04:22like the fidget spinner will be around until at least the summer.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24Next, to the gadget that's helping people with sight problems.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Watch this.
0:04:26 > 0:04:29Meet Charlie - he's eight years old and loves
0:04:29 > 0:04:30gaming with his brothers.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Charlie has Stargardt macular dystrophy, which means his eyes
0:04:32 > 0:04:35don't work properly.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38He started losing his sight when he was four.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41One night when we were driving home, you asked me, "Can you read the sign
0:04:41 > 0:04:42on the back of the van?"
0:04:42 > 0:04:43And I couldn't.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Now these goggles are helping him to see
0:04:46 > 0:04:50properly for the first time.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52It works.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54HE GASPS
0:04:54 > 0:04:55Are you all right?
0:04:55 > 0:04:56Yeah...
0:04:56 > 0:05:04Are you just really pleased?
0:05:04 > 0:05:07So, if you have Stargardt, things that are far away get fuzzy
0:05:07 > 0:05:12and small.
0:05:12 > 0:05:16The goggles help Charlie zoom in and magnify what is in front of
0:05:16 > 0:05:17him.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20His school have decided to pay for the goggles to help him in
0:05:20 > 0:05:21class.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25He is able to work at the same pace as the rest of the
0:05:25 > 0:05:27children, and he's working at a very fast pace.
0:05:27 > 0:05:30He's lapping up all of the learning that we are offering him.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33The tech also helps Charlie play against his brothers, and even beat
0:05:33 > 0:05:34them at football.
0:05:34 > 0:05:43Yes!
0:05:44 > 0:05:45On your barks...
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Get set? Go!
0:05:46 > 0:05:49It's not just Olympic athletes who set off on the starter's pistol.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Hundreds of four legged fundraisers have been running in a charity
0:05:51 > 0:05:53dog race in Thailand.
0:05:53 > 0:05:55It was a test for all shapes and sizes.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57The special track was designed to test their stamina.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00It's all to raise money for a hospital in the capital Bangkok.
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Look, Chief! There are new levels in the Danger Mouse Game.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08Really?! Will there be new locations to explore,
0:06:08 > 0:06:09new enemies to extinguish
