		<description><![CDATA[We see some people who suddenly get sleepy even if they have claimed that they have had a good night’s sleep. While this may be debatable, assuming that his claims are true, one has to wonder why a person would still be sleepy despite a full sleep taken. But thanks to some researchers in Japan, it has been discovered that Narcolepsy and genes known as singe nucleotide polymorphisms or SNP. SNP is a DNA sequence variation between members of a species. During the research, researchers discovered a genetically mutated fragment of chromosome 22 which increased subjects&#8217; vulnerability to the disease by 1.8 times. Researchers also discovered that the mutation causes a malfunction of the gene CPT1B, which is linked to sleep. Researchers also found that a link between the genetic mutation and narcolepsy was also found in South Koreans.

		<description><![CDATA[Remember the 9/11 issue where the whole mind-boggling issue of how the terrorists were able to carry out their plot of terrorism succeeded without being initially foreseen? Well, for one thing, we are all aware of tight security measures in the form of detectors and surveillance cameras are placed in most airports and buildings. But all of these are useless if you are sleeping on the job. Such is the controversy that is now surrounding further investigations on the level of security measures that countries are implementing in their local airports. The two messengers of destruction were rumored to be seen even before the entire thing happened. But thanks to some sleepy CIA guys, the result was the claiming of lives and overall destruction to a powerful country that was a picture of vulnerability. All it took was a split second and perhaps the 9/11 issue would have not happened at all.
