Japanese scientists, led primarily by researchers at Nara Medical University, are developing a universal artificial blood made from expired donor blood.
This innovation uses hemoglobin vesicles (HbVs), where purified hemoglobin is encapsulated in lipid shells that safely transport oxygen through the body.
Because HbVs lack blood-type antigens, they eliminate the need for blood type matching, making them suitable for anyone.
The artificial blood is shelf-stable for long periods and can be stored at room temperature, unlike conventional donated blood.
With clinical trials already underway, researchers aim to have this technology ready for emergency medicine, disaster response, and military use by around 2030.

We are only a few days into 2026. Early in the year, gyms are full — by the end of January, far fewer remain.

It’s a familiar pattern: enthusiasm is common; discipline and consistency are rare. (And yes, I’m guilty too 🙈)

I see the same pattern in business. The year begins with bold plans and ambitious targets, but markets do not reward intention — they reward performance.

Ex*****on starts with clear goals and strong prioritisation. Don’t try to do everything at once. Pace matters.

At Heirs Holdings, my message to our team is simple: execute our plans consistently and with discipline, one step at a time.

My charge for the year:
Those who remain focused long after the early excitement fades are the ones who create lasting value.

"REFLECTIONS"

Sometimes when it’s quiet
And I am all alone

I’ll sit back in my chair
Not answering my phone.

Sitting there in the stillness
Doing nothing at all,

I lean my head back
Stare at the wall.

Taking some time
To just stop and think,

Ignoring the laundry
And dishes in the sink.

Putting aside
My long list of to do’s,

Taking a break to relax
To survey the view.

A few moments to reflect
Away from the din

On where I am going,
On where I have been.

Removed from the chaos
Away from the crowd,

For a rare moment of peace
When time will allow.

In these moments
So precious and few,

I have time to consider
All that I want to do,

To ask myself,
What is it I want to be?

To search my heart
To see what I see.

In which direction is it,
That I want to go?

Consider my options,
Get my ducks in a row.

Look toward the future
Begin to devise a plan,

Give myself a little pep-talk,
Tell myself I think I can.

Spend some needed time
Searching within my soul,

Reviewing my highs
Reviewing my lows.

Asking myself,
Do you like what you see?

Am I doing all I can
To become a better me?

Have I been honest and truthful?
Have I been charitable and kind?

When I search my conscience
Will I like what I will find?

Or be disappointed to know
I've been acting greedy and mean?

Only when I look inside,
Can what I look for be seen.

To do unto others
As you would have done unto you,

This is what we were taught
In the days of Sunday school.

In looking inward at myself
Perusing my memory,

I hope to find I’m thinking of others
Not only thinking of me.

In these silent moments
I have time to reflect,

On what I might have done differently,
On what I might correct.

If given the opportunity
What difference could I make,

If I had that chance
What risks would I take?

If in the future
I might pass this way again

Would I do it all the same,
Or with a fresh start would I begin?

These moments coming unannounced
To catch me by surprise,

Give me the chance to see,
Circumstance through different eyes.

When captured by the moment
I cannot help but take a look,

Discovering what options
Might be hidden in cranny or nook,

To offer help in taking me
From one moment to the next

Finding new solutions,
To a problem with which I’m vexed.

These quiet little respites
Are born of necessity,

Otherwise how would I find
The tools needed to succeed?

For life is about the challenge
That is presented every day

To improve both ourselves and our world
In peaceful and small ways.

So when those quiet moments come
Unbidden and unexpected

It’s best to take advantage,
Of their gift of time reflected.

And savor their brief moments
To store their lessons learned,

Enjoy the beautiful seconds
Of peace which I have earned.

Three attributes for a successful relationship.

(1)Fear of God.
A person who firmly believes in God and Honours Him can love and be loved.

(2) Humility.
Egos can crush one’s labour in a twinkle of an eye.
Whiereas humility can steer one through the toughest challenges in a relationship.
A humble person will always be respectful of his or her partner at anytime, whenever, wherever.
Respect comes naturally with humility.

(3) Supportive.
I like to say this; that a person male or female can build their partners. This not just for man. There have been many women from yore who built their homes, they came met a man who probably had a one week, one month or one year plan or one who didn’t have any at all but they built and even expanded the plan and made it a 50…years plan. If there is no vision, create one and expand on it.
So it is for men; they’ve also given plans, built their spouse to great heights.
That’s where you hear things like ; “I thank God Almighty who brought you into life”. Or “none of this would have been possible without my better half, asides God”.
If there is no vision, create one.

For everything else hangs on these three.

Lastly,
If humility can exalt a nation, imagine what it will do for an individual?

Finally,
May the Love that kills ego, Faith that kills doubt And Peace that kills worry reside in us 🙏🏽
