China aims to turn potatoes into staple food by 2020
In a lab near Beijing researchers propagate potato cuttings in growth jelly to rapidly produce seeds. China plans to boost land under potatoes, arguing the tuber uses less water and yields more calories per acre, while promoting new products and eateries to change eating habits.

FBI moves to contain remaining occupiers at Oregon wildlife refuge
The FBI said it has moved to contain four remaining occupiers at the Oregon wildlife refuge after an occupier drove an ATV beyond barriers and sped back to the site. Armored vehicles were used as agents positioned at barricades ahead of and behind the camping area. Previously, on January 26, occupation leader Ammon Bundy and seven others were arrested and one person was killed during a traffic stop.
