WPA executive director Brendan Schwab pointed to a study conducted by Australian sports scientist Joel Mason last month which suggested an increased injury rate in the Bundesliga since Germany's professional soccer league restarted on May 16.

You must pay for any treatment upfront but can then claim back the cost - typically 50 per cent, 75 per cent or sometimes up to 100 per cent - depending on the treatment and level of cover you have, up to your maximum annual limit.

The same is true of the political negotiations. Whether the G-20 talks that took place in Rome last week went well or whether they didn't depends on who you ask. World leaders failed to agree on an end date to their use of coal and to get all countries to commit to net zero by 2050, which didn't make for an optimistic start to the UN climate summit in the eyes of many onlookers.

The schemes, sometimes known as NHS top-up plans, are a form of low cost insurance policy to help meet the cost of a range of non-urgent healthcare procedures and appointments - not just at the dentist but also at the optician and for osteopathy, physiotherapy, chiropody and a visit to a chiropractor.

"Many players will not have had access to the necessary training methods to ensure that they have the necessary fitness and conditioning to compete," said the World Players' Association (WPA), whose members play in the NBA, MLB, NHL, NFL, European soccer and Australian Rules football, among others.

Other key concerns were whether players had been provided with enough time to return to competition fitness and whether, in the case of injury, they would have access to the usual range of treatment and rehabilitation, given the strain on health services.

"There is reason to be filled with hope and even optimism about our future," said Kerry. "The finalists and winners that we've recognized this evening remind us that we do have an incredible ability to turn the improbable into reality if we work together."

There's also still no camera, a choice we think is commendable.  But the TL;DR comes down to this: The new Google Nest Hub tracks your sleep more or less as accurately as a wearable (each tracks some metrics better, others worse), but without needing to be charged or, for that matter, worn at all, which could be a game-changer in the relatively untapped field of sleep tracking.

BERN, June 4 (Reuters) - Players may be at an increased risk of injury as professional sports rush back into action following the coronavirus stoppage, a global union representing 85,000 athletes said on Thursday.

The WPA said that one key measure would be to reduce the strain by modifying rest periods, substitutions and duration of matches, as soccer had done by allowing five substitutions per team instead of three.

The key to solving for that variable can be found in the degree to which the prospect of tracking your sleep from the nightstand appeals to you.  At $100 (Ј90, AU$149), it's priced $30 less than the first-gen Hub, right at launch (although, to be fair, sales aren't hard to come by). The real question is whether you should rush out and buy one, now that they're officially on sale.

Storms that downed trees meant that all trains were canceled. Once they reached the summit, many delegates also reported difficulties in accessing the venue, citing long queues and confusion over taking daily COVID tests.  People were scrambling to book the flights they'd been asked not to take in order to travel to the world's most important climate conference. Closer to home, many delegates traveling to Glasgow from London had faced down weather-related troubles of their own.

Some people won't care a lick about sleep tracking and if that's you, you have no more reason to buy the updated Nest Hub today than you had to buy the first-gen Hub before. Meh, if you're looking for great sounding audio and you've already bought into the Google Nest ecosystem (or decided you want to), the Nest Audio is the no-brainer choice for you. 



In Bangladesh, these turtles fetch anywhere between Rs 700 and 8 kets.' While near Chambal River in UP, a turtle would sell for Rs 60-100 per kg, in Bengal the price could be as high as Rs 400-500 per kg.
