Apart from throwing rancid insults towards his opponents, 2016 U.S. Presidential Candidate Donald Trump has been announcing several controversial policies to the public including closing down mosques. It seems that the billionaire has been taking advantage of the people’s distrust of Islam and fear of terrorists' attacks to gain America’s votes come next year’s election.

In an interview with NBC news on Thursday night, the Republican frontrunner made another contentious remark. According to Trump, he “would certainly implement” a database system to track all Muslims in the country.

Chinese scientists started cloning animals in 2000. This year, the Chinese government has announced that it's stepping up its efforts in cloning with a facility that's guaranteed to mass produce a variety of animals.

State-run Xinhua News Agency noted: "Prior to this, cloning in China had been limited to scientific research. More and more companies have shown interest in investing in the technology for commercial use, especially animal husbandry.

Cloned cows are supposed to beef up China's food supply.

Squash is one of the oldest known crops and has been a staple food for Mesoamerican Indians. It belongs to the gourd family also known as "Cucurbitaceae" and comes in variety of colors, sizes and shapes. The term squash was derived from the Narragansett Native American word "askutasquash" which means "eaten raw or uncooked."

Meanwhile, a rare squash was reborn from unearthed clay pot with 850-year-old seeds. In 2008, an archaeological dig on First Nations land in Wisconsin led to the discovery of the said heirloom seeds. They were distributed to native communities including some college students from Canadian Mennonite University.

The seeds were carbon dated to around 1165 AD.
