Wed, 21 Dec 2011 15:30:02 +0100 (Reuters) - Plastic surgeon Denis Boucq holds a defective silicone gel breast implant manufactured by French company Poly Implant Prothese (PIP) after he removed it from a patient in a clinic in Nice December 21, 2011. French medical device regulatory authority (AFSSAPS) recalled PIP breast implants in March 2010 after it concluded that their performance and safety were not in accordance with current standards. France will offer surgery to remove the breast implants of up to 30,000 women if a study due out this week finds that the silicone they are made from could cause cancer, the health minister said on Tuesday.

Sun, 11 Dec 2011 20:40:02 +0100 (Reuters) - Auctioneer Jeffrey Obrecht talks to prospective buyers during an auction of three separate farms totalling more than 473 acres of rich central Iowa soil in Traer, Iowa December 9, 2011. This hunger among farmers has prompted more sellers to put their land up for public bidding to see what a sale will bring. The share of Iowa farmland being sold by auction, rather than private deals, has doubled to nearly 10 percent in recent months, according to data from Iowa State University.
