...ingrowth method works by inserting a porous metal implant straight into the end of the remaining bone. Over a few months, the bone grows around the implant, providing a strong anchor onto which a prosthesis can be attached. Scientists are even finding that the softer muscle and skin tissue that also grow into the pores help prevent infection by producing a bacteria-resistant seal.

Walt Fehr, a professor of agronomy at Iowa State University in Ames, says, "The majority of soybean crops in Iowa will benefit significantly from this rain...

During next month's harvest, Bunting says he expects a higher yield of corn - partly because he increased the amount of acres he's devoted to the crop, but also because the recent "good weather" has helped kernels of corn get plumper...
