Emma Hayes hat am Dienstag ihren ersten Kader als Trainerin der Frauen-Nationalmannschaft berufen, der viele bekannte Namen enthält: 19 Spielerinnen aus dem April-Kader kehren nächsten Monat für zwei Freundschaftsspiele gegen Südkorea zurück.

In the worst cases, frostbite can cause the tissues in fingers, toes, noses and other extremities to die and require amputation. Now doctors in the United States have a way to save patients from these life-altering effects.
In February, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the country’s first medication to treat severe frostbite. In a clinical trial, the drug, iloprost, greatly reduced amputations in nearly all the frostbite patients who received it.
