A device called a cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT) pacemaker, can switch the heart’s fuel from sugar to fat after only two minutes, a study has found.

Oxford: CTC Pacemaker Could Help Reverse Heart Failure Symptoms by Switching Heart’s Fuel from Sugar to Fat! (21.1.2026)

Professor Neil Herring, Professor of Cardiovascular Medicine at the University of Oxford, said: “The size of the improvement we’ve seen in the hearts in our study in response to CRT is remarkable. The slowing down of electrical signals in the heart, in some people who have heart failure, may mean the signal for the heart to use fat for fuel is lost, and their heart switches to using glucose instead. A pacemaker restores the “use fat for fuel” message through fixing the signalling problem as it regulates the heart. This then helps the heart to start to recover.

Iran: Reuters Claim “Chinese Domestic Firms Barred from Using US, Israeli Cybersecurity Software Amid ‘Security Concerns'” – But is it True? (15.1.2026)

Initially, I came across this article on Press TV via Telegram – but found that Google is “banning” Iranian media – whilst the US and Israel attempt a violent overthrow of the Iranian government. Instead, I had to open the below article via the Microsoft search-engine. Whether wordpress shadow-bans or ghosts this article is anyone’s guess. I have checked the Mainland Chinese-language “Baidu” search-engine for confirmation of this original “Reuters” article – and could not find any reference. Therefore, I would tread carefully. Reuters, just like all the Western news outlets are controlled by the bourgeois establishment and loyally does its (pro-capitalist) bidding. On the other hand, China, like any country, routinely exercises its right to self-defence – just as Iran is doing now.

Musk's "Grok" in Hitler and Sexual Deviancy Outrage!

US: Musk Blasts UK Bid to Block X Over AI Tool! (12.1.2026)

Recently, however, Grok has been allowing X-users to generate AI images of women, teenagers (youths), and children (many premised on “real” or “known” individuals) – with these images being “naked” and “sexualised” in various ways. It seems that this Grok-activity was/is feeding into paedophilic and misogynistic tendencies – as well as violating privacy laws. Musk seems to think that this activity should be “protected” by “freedom of speech” and “freedom of expression” legislation – even though these vary around the world. The problem is a broader issue which has seen the governments of Western Europe permit the US-controlled internet to invade sovereign (non-American) geographical spaces and apply US law where such law does not exist (the political left outside of the US has been one of the most prevalent victims of this policy) – the right and far-right the greatest benefiter). The US concept of “freedom of speech” allows “ignorance” to possess the same status as “wisdom” – and herein lies the problem. The UK possesses “responsibility of speech” – where each individual must learn the current acceptable parameters within public debate (private is another matter) – and operate from within those limitations. The only place to possess “freedom of speech” in the UK is the British Parliament.

AI can guess racial categories from heart scans – what it means and why it matters

UK: How “AI” Imports “Racism” into Medical Heart Scans! (10.1.2026)

In the heart scan study, researchers found that the AI model wasn’t actually focusing on the heart itself, where there were few visible differences linked to racial categories. Instead, it drew information from areas outside the heart, such as subcutaneous fat as well as image artefacts – unwanted distortions like motion blur, noise, or compression that can degrade image quality. These artefacts often come from the scanner and can influence how the AI interprets the scan.

Cuban "Internationalist" Soldiers Murdered by Trump!

Buddhist-Marxism Alliance (UK) – Revolutionary Steering Committee Issues Directive Number 18 – Condemning US Terrorism in Venezuela! (7.1.2026)

Dialectics are at work – as is always the case. Maduro is performing his part perfectly on the international stage of politics. We have utilised a “religious” rhetoric above because so much of contemporary far-right movements are “Judeo-Christian” in nature – with Zionist-Fascism being a distorted reflection of Judaic theology (not all Jews support Zionism or Israel) – but religion still serves to motivate a vast segment of humanity. Maduro might lose his life in an instant (in a hail of bullets) – or he might lose his life slowly over-time sat in an unmonitored US prison-cell. This is part and parcel of playing the part of a proletariat leader in the face of a highly aggressive and powerful capitalist foe. International pressure – and the fact that Trump is domestically unpopular might provide a counter-balance of forces which could see Maduro return safe and well to Venezuela – but Donald Trump is a psychopath whose mental illness has appealed to a vast raft of US voters – twice in the last decade! Once the prey has fallen in the trap – it is unlikely that which has been captured will see the light of day again!
