Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon system is a non-viral vector for gene therapy (ref: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3095056/).
The SB system enables high-level stable gene transfer and sustained transgene expression in multiple primary human somatic cell types, thereby representing a highly attractive gene transfer strategy for clinical use. (
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28964527).
Sleeping Beauty (SB) transposon-based transfection is a two-component system consisting of a transposase and a transposon containing inverted repeat/direct repeat (IR/DR) sequences that result in precise integration into a TA dinucleotide.
The transposon is designed with an expression cassette of interest flanked by IR/DRs, and SB transposase mediates stable integration and reliable long-term expression of the gene of interest.
It has recently been demonstrated that SB efficiently mediates gene transfer and stable gene expression in human embryonic stem (ES) cells (http://cshprotocols.cshlp.org/content/2009/8/pdb.prot5270.full).
André-Louis Debierne (14 July 1874 – 31 August 1949) was a French chemist.
He is considered the discoverer of the element actinium.
The next day, they issued a statement saying that it was not a coup d'état and that President Robert Mugabe was safe, although the situation would only return to normal after they had dealt with the "criminals" around Mugabe responsible for the socio-economic problems of Zimbabwe.
Jacob Zuma, the President of South Africa, phoned Mugabe and confirmed that he was "fine", but under house arrest.
The coup took place amid troubles in the ruling ZANU–PF party between former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa, who was backed by the army, and First Lady Grace Mugabe, backed by the younger G40 section, over who would replace the elderly President Mugabe.
Grace Mugabe warned to a coup in October 2017.
A week after Mnangagwa was fired and forced to flee the country, and a day before troops moved into Harare, army chief Constantino Chiwenga issued a statement that purges of senior ZANU-PF officials like Mnangagwa had to stop.
On November 21, 2017, Mugabe resigned as president.
Emmerson Mnangagwa became the President of Zimbabwe on November 24, 2017.
Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa (pronounced  ; born 15 September 1942) is a Zimbabwean politician.
He became the third and current President of Zimbabwe after Robert Mugabe resigned on 21 November 2017.
He served as Vice-President of Zimbabwe from 2014 to 2017.
On 6 November 2017 he was removed as vice president by Robert Mugabe, who said he had been plotting against the government.
He is the president of Zimbabwe since 24 November 2017.
On 15 November 2017, Mnangagwa became leader of ZANU-PF and was reported as likely to soon become President of Zimbabwe after the coup against Mugabe.
Mugabe resigned on 21 November 2017 and Mnangagwa was named to be his successor.
Assassination Attempt
While addressing a rally in Bulawayo and ahead of the scheduled July 31 elections, an explosion occurred, killing 2 and injuring 47 people.
Mnangagwa escaped unharmed, but several members of the ZANU-PF party were injured, including his first and second vice-presidents; Constantino Chiwenga and Kembo Mohadi, and Mary Chiwenga, the first vice-president's wife.

Sohni Mahiwal or Suhni Mehar (Punjabi: سوہنی معینوال‎, ਸੋਹਣੀ ਮਹੀਂਵਾਲ; Sindhi: سهڻي ميهار‎) is one of the four popular tragic romances of Punjab.
The others are Sassi Punnun, Mirza Sahiba, and Heer Ranjha.
Sohni Mahiwal is a tragic love story which reverts the classical motif of Hero and Leader.
The heroine Sohni, unhappily married to a man she despises, swims every night across the river using an earthenware pot to keep afloat in the water, to where her beloved Mehar herds buffaloes.
One night her sister-in-law replaces the earthenware pot with a vessel of unbaked clay, which dissolves in water and she dies in the whirling waves of the river.
The story also appears in Shah Jo Risalo and is one of seven popular tragic romances from Sindh.
The other six tales are Umar Marui, Sassui Punhun, Lila Chanesar, Noori Jam Tamachi, Sorath Rai Diyach and Momal Rano commonly known as Seven Heroines (Sindhi: ست سورميون ‎) of Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai.
Shah begins the story at the most dramatic moment, when a young woman cries out for help in the cold river, attacked by crocodiles.
The whole chapter (Sur Sohni) is merely an extension of this dreadful and yet hoped-for moment when the vessel of her body breaks and she, faithful to her pre-eternal love-covenant with Mehar, will be forever united through death.

Real or perceived threat in the environment, elicits stress response in animals, which disrupts the internal constant environment of the animal.
There are different kinds of stressors that animals can be exposed to, and there are different kinds of stress responses that animals display as a result.
Physiological changes that happen because of stress cause behavioural responses in animals.
There are different types of behavioural responses: impairment of response inhibition and lack of motivation, changes in social, sexual, aggression and nurture behaviour in animals.
The extent of the impact is dependent upon the type, and duration of the stress, as well as the past experiences of the animal.
Behavioural responses to prolonged stress can also be transferred across generations.
Stress responses are any responses that an organism makes or goes through, in response to a stressor that is causing a stress.
A stress in accordance to Walter Cannon (1871-1945), is any disturbance that imbalances the internal environment of an organism also known as homeostasis.
There are two major types of stressors that cause stress to animals: abiotic stressors and biotic stressors.
Abiotic stressors are any ecological, geological, or climatological changes, that causes stress to the animal such as increased temperatures, and natural disasters.
Biotic stressors are living things-related complications that causes stress; these include dominance, pollution, infection  social pressures  and competition.
There are different types of stress responses in an animal in response to stressors: Physiological responses, Behavioural responses, Psychological responses, and/or Physical responses (fight or flight).
The response depends on the choice the animal partakes in, when it is faced with danger that causes distress.
Walter Canon (1871-1945), argues that there are two possible choices that an organism may choose when stress is encountered: fight or flight responses; the choice is based on careful evaluation of the situation that would derive a response.
Behavioural responses
Behavioural responses to stress, are evoked from some underlying complex physiological changes that arise consequently from stress.
There are many different types of behavioural responses to stress:
Impairment of response inhibition and lack of motivation
According to a study conducted by Mika and his colleagues, prolonged stress in rats causes response inhibition.
It was evident through their experiment that stressed rats had inhibited premature responses (decreased timing of intervals to food), along with decreased intrinsic motivation to initiate a response.
They link the decreased motivation to the stress-associated reduction in incentive motivation, as presented by another study conducted by Kleen and his colleagues.
Decreased motivation was also seen in a study conducted by Beery and Kaufer, where they explained that stressed rodents are less likely to be motivated to interact with one another.
Change in social behaviours
A study conducted by Beery and Kaufer, revealed that social behaviours in rodents change in response to stress.
They explain that social withdrawal and general reduction in social interaction after an exposure to a stressor are evident in rodents.
They argue that this is due to the underlying physiological changes that the rodent goes through in response to stress.
For instance, the changes that occur to the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) hormonal axis, is directly related to the changes in social behaviour.
Social avoidance is another consequence of stress that can be seen in rodents.
Rodents are more likely to avoid dominant rats and avoid social interactions amongst each other after the exposure to a stressor.
Sexual Behaviours
Sexual interests change in many species when exposed to stressors.
For instance, stressed male and female rats express inhibited mating behaviour which is evident through the clear increase in the inhibitory hormone RF-amide.
Another study suggests that masculine sexual behaviour in male rats is subject to changes in accordance to the type of stressors that the rats were subjected to.
Female Zebra Finches mating choice is determined by the stressors that they are exposed to early in life, which remains consistent throughout adulthood.
A study about stress effects on female songbird’s response to sexual signal for mating, indicated that the response to this specific signal can be impaired if the female is exposed to developmental stress.
Behavioural changes as a result from developmental stress impairs neural responses to sexual signal, which reduces mating:
Aggressive behaviours and Anti-predator responses
Stressed animals would choose to avoid a novel situation rather than confront it.
Aggressive behaviour is associated with sex hormones, such as testosterone, and specific brain regions and systems such as the medial preoptic nucleus, prefrontal cortex-dependent response inhibition, and anterior hypothalamus.
Stress negatively impacts sex hormones, which results in an imbalance and reduction in aggression related hormones and function.
Also, chronic stress results in prefrontal cortex-dependent response inhibition.
This results in reduction in aggression, thus promoting anti-predator responses.
Prolonged stress reduces parental behaviour toward offspring
Prolonged stress alters parental behaviour toward offspring and promotes parental neglect.
According to a study performed by Tilgar and associates, predation stress alters parents’ behaviours such as the reduction in provisioning rates, which negatively impacts the offspring’s performance.
Oxytocin and vasopressin hormones are generally responsible for affiliative and pair-bonding behaviours in many species.
Stress alters the level of both hormones resulting in an abnormal behaviour from parents towards offspring.
For instance, levels of oxytocin decrease as a result of prolonged stress, which has been shown to reduce pair bonding behaviour and increase withdrawal behaviour.
Also, prolactin is another important hormone that is associated with nurture by parents to offspring, and levels of this hormone can be altered as a result of stress.
Reduced levels of prolactin as a result of stress decreases behaviours such as suckling, licking, and brooding.
Transgenerational behavioural response to stress
Behavioural response to stress can be transmitted from parents to offspring.
When an offspring observes the expression of behaviour such as fear in response to a stress stimulus, the same response would be elicited in the offspring when the stimulus is presented.
Using Rodent model, Debeik and associates illustrated that fear is transferred from mother to infant in response to a certain odour stimulus.
They further proved that the neural activity, such as the basal amygdala activity of the offspring’s brain, illustrated fear response.

Canaan is not in the Jewish holy book, the Torah, or the Christian holy book, the Bible.
Those two books talk about Canaan's older brothers, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, but Canaan is only in the Muslim holy book, the Quran, or Koran.
In the Muslim version of the story of the Great Flood, (The Quran did not mention any name for the son of Noah, the name Canaan does not exist there) Canaan did not believe in God the way his father, mother and brothers did.
They followed God's instructions and built a large boat, the arc, in time to survive the flood, but Canaan drowned instead.
According to the Koran, Noah asked Canaan to come with him on the boat, but Canaan decided to climb a mountain insteadː "O my son, come aboard with us and be not with the disbelievers."
Canaan said, "I will take refuge on a mountain to protect me from the water."
Noah said, "There is no protector today from the decree of The Lord our God, except from whom He gives mercy."
Then the Koran says Canaan drowned.
Some versions ( Christian/Jews) say Noah's wife, Canaan's mother, went to the mountain with Canaan because she loved him so much.
In this version, Canaan is still a boy small enough to be picked up.
It says when the water came, Canaan's mother held him above her head so he would live longer before he drowned.
Other versions of Canaan
The holy books of the Jews, Christians and Muslims also talk about Canaan son of Ham, Noah's grandson.
This Canaan is still alive after the flood.
One Jewish scholar thinks this Canaan might have been Noah's son and not grandson.
So this could be the same Canaan or it could be another person with the same name.
