SNAX stock hits 52-week low at $0.74 amid market challengesOscar-winning actor Jamie Foxx has opened up about the medical emergency he faced last year , revealing that he had a brain bleed that led to a stroke. The Hollywood star detailed the struggles he had with his health last year. "It is a mystery," he said. "We still don't know exactly what happened to me." "April 11, I was having a bad headache and I asked my boy for an aspirin. And I realized quickly that when you're in a medical emergency, your boys don't know what the f--- to do," he said. "Before I could get the aspirin I went out," he said. "I don't remember 20 days." Foxx thanked his sister , who he said was "4 foot 11 of nothing but pure love," for driving him around Atlanta to find a hospital. They ended up at Piedmont Hospital, where a doctor told them that Foxx was having a brain bleed that had led to a stroke and that he would die without an operation, the actor said. After the operation, doctors said that Foxx might make a full recovery "but it's going to be the worst year of his life," Foxx recounted. Foxx's family kept him out of the public eye because he was "so dizzy" that his head would bob around and his daughter was concerned that people would turn him into an internet meme if they saw his condition, he said. On May 4, he remembers waking up in a wheelchair and not being able to walk, and reacting in shock when his friend told him he'd had a stroke. "Jamie Foxx don't get strokes," the actor remembered saying. He was then flown to Chicago for rehab, where he says he was told to drop the "arrogant" act if he wanted to make a full recovery. The actor was hospitalized in April 2023 after having a then-undisclosed health crisis while filming a Netflix film in Atlanta. At the time of his hospitalization, his daughter Corinne Foxx said on social media that her father had suffered a "medical complication," but those close to him largely stayed tight-lipped about the actor's condition, in keeping with his penchant for privacy. In July 2023, Foxx posted an Instagram video update in which he addressed the speculation about what led to his hospitalization, although he did not reveal details of what happened. "I know a lot of people were waiting or wanting to hear updates but to be honest with you, I just didn't want you to see me like that, man," he said in the video. "I want you to see me laughing, having a good time, partying, cracking a joke, doing a movie, television show. I didn't want you to see me with tubes running out of me and trying to figure out if I was gonna make it through." Foxx shared another health update on his verified social media in August 2023. "You're looking at a man who is thankful... finally startin' to feel like myself..." he wrote at the time. "It's been an unexpected dark journey... but I can see the light." This past summer, in a video shared to TikTok , the "Ray" actor told a crowd of well-wishers that his issue began with a "bad headache" and was then "gone for 20 days." In that video, he was seen sharing that he did not "remember anything."
BeyondTrucks Adds Orderful’s Data Platform Into Transportation SystemIn what’s become an all-too-familiar story for taxpayer funded technology projects, another Washington state IT upgrade is falling further behind schedule and over budget. The state’s Office of Financial Management last week again postponed ambitious plans to move dozens of state systems, for everything from driver licensing fees to foster care payments to state pension checks, onto a cloud-based platform called Workday. The massive project, dubbed One Washington and initially set to launch its first phase in mid 2022, had already been pushed back to July 2025. Now, it won’t go live until July 2026 at the earliest, and possibly not until January 2027. Project costs, which had already jumped from the original estimate of $144 million for the first phase to around $291 million, are also expected to rise again — unwelcome news as the state faces a $10 billion to $12 billion shortfall over the next four years. OFM said it won’t know how much by until next month, but the numbers could be large. A draft budget request by OFM in September asked for $501 million over the next four fiscal years, though that figure includes subsequent phases of the Workday upgrade as well as expenditures that were planned for earlier in the project but have been delayed. OFM postponed the first phase of One Washington after tests showed that more than a third of 113 affected state agencies, which together handle some $43 billion in transactions a year, weren’t ready to run those financial processes via Workday. OFM is eager to avoid problems of the kind that marred the $340 million Workday upgrade at the University of Washington, which launched last year despite concerns that it wasn’t ready. But the One Washington delay also follows a damning “quality assurance” report issued last month by an outside consultant that flagged numerous weaknesses. Among the findings, OFM isn’t able to closely track progress at each state agency; efforts to test the agency systems are inadequate; and OFM’s new budget request is “significantly higher than expected” and well above what some other states are spending on similar upgrades. That’s all landing poorly with state lawmakers, who say One Washington’s repeated problems are undermining confidence in the state’s ability to execute critical but complicated IT projects. Legislators need “some degree of surety that even with more money we can get where we need to be” on One Washington, said state Sen. Lisa Wellman, D-Mercer Island. “And I have no confidence that is the case.” Lawmakers are especially frustrated that the problems continue despite the state’s massive outlays to Deloitte, the high-profile consultant helping run One Washington, and the state’s second biggest IT contractor. Over the next four years alone, Deloitte could be paid around $160 million for One Washington, based on earlier estimates provided by Deloitte to OFM. Identifying problems of the kind that have hobbled One Washington — “that is Deloitte’s job,” said state Sen. Joe Nguyen, D-West Seattle, chair of the Environment, Energy & Technology Committee and Ways & Means Committee vice-chair. A heavy lift To be clear, One Washington was never going to go smoothly. Part of a broader state initiative to replace aging state technology, One Washington aims to modernize and centralize state financial processes now run on roughly 280 different computer systems, many of them decades old and costly to maintain or keep secure. Many of those older systems will simply be replaced by Workday, a sophisticated “enterprise” platform that is used by many governments and universities. However, around 40 state agencies plan to keep using some “legacy” computer systems, which will need extensive modification to be compatible with Workday — modifications that OFM worried wouldn’t be ready for a July 2025 launch. Pushing back the launch by 12 to 18 months will ensure every agency is prepared “so that when Workday goes live, we don’t break things downstream,” said Amy McLean, OFM’s spokesperson for One Washington. Breaking things is a real risk. Glitches in the University of Washington’s Workday rollout, also managed by Deloitte, led to $90 million in delayed vendor payments and disrupted the school’s vital system of federal grants, though many of those problems have since been addressed. The stakes are far higher with One Washington, which touches crucial state operations, including payments to hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians. Trying to “go live” with Workday before those processes were ready “would cause catastrophic failure” in crucial state operations, OFM said. A failed launch could also affect the state’s financial accounting process and hurt its creditworthiness, according to an August report by the state auditor’s office. OFM said one of the project’s biggest challenges has been a chronic shortage of IT staff, made worse by the pandemic, to help agencies prepare their systems. The project also suffered from extensive executive turnover in its earlier phases, McLean said. More fundamental challenges were highlighted in last month’s quality assurance report, which was prepared by Gartner Consulting. For example, One Washington was structured so that OFM and the various agencies operate in “parallel” to each other on the project, without sufficient interaction, which made it hard for OFM to monitor “agency progress and obstacles,” Gartner said. Gartner also criticized procedures to test the “readiness” of the agencies’ legacy systems for Workday. In some cases, tests showed only that legacy systems could share data with Workday, but didn’t confirm whether the systems would actually be fully operational once Workday was launched. Gartner also said One Washington’s first round of system tests yielded a success rate that was higher than Gartner typically finds in such big projects. Moreover, when Gartner interviewed staff at various agencies, it found “an apparent mismatch of expectations as what counts as ‘passing’ a testing scenario and what counts as ‘failing,’” according to the report. Specifically, “agencies expressed there were several occurrences during the testing process where they thought the test ‘failed’, however the test was marked as ‘passing’ or as ‘user error.’” OFM acknowledged Gartner’s criticisms when it decided to postpone the launch. The agency said it was addressing those criticisms, but in a presentation last week noted that “while (One Washington) is working on improvements, without significant changes in these areas going forward, there is a risk that the Program will have difficulty achieving a new go-live date.” OFM had also adopted measures to prevent a premature launch. Workday will only go live if OFM and the agencies have successfully tested modifications at 38 financial systems that have been identified essential in the shift from the current financial system to Workday. Still, lawmakers are frustrated the state took so long to make these course corrections. Nguyen worries Washington is now so reliant on IT contractors like Deloitte that agency managers are less and less able to oversee complicated technology projects He also thinks OFM failed to put enough pressure on individual agencies to ensure they’re ready for Workday. “Right now, the mindset is, ‘well, we built this platform — if [agencies] don’t use it, it’s their fault,’ “ Nguyen said. McLean, OFM spokesperson, said OFM is looking at ways to hold agencies more accountable but also to better support them with resources and personnel to make the necessary changes. “We’re really focused on finding the right dynamic of executive accountability along with support from the program,” McLean said. “You can’t really have one without the other.” Nguyen is glad OFM is retooling its management strategy, but he says he’ll insist on meeting personally with staff at agencies still working on legacy systems so that he can personally assess their readiness. “That’s great they have a new date,” Nguyen said of One Washington’s 2026 launch window. But after so many problems, he adds, “I don’t believe them.”

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards was ruled out for Saturday's road game against the New England Patriots with an ankle injury. Fellow Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins is close to returning from a four-game absence because of a knee injury, as he was listed questionable to play. Offensive lineman Trey Pipkins III (hip) and linebacker Denzel Perryman (groin) also have been ruled out for Saturday. Edwards, 29, has gained 365 yards rushing this season with four touchdowns, including two in Los Angeles' 34-27 victory over the Denver Broncos on Dec. 19. Dobbins, 26, gained 766 yards with eight TDs in 11 games (nine starts) during his first season with the Chargers. Dobbins joined the Chargers in the offseason while coming off an Achilles tear with the Ravens last season. The Chargers also have running backs Kimani Vidal and Hassan Haskins on the depth chart. Vidal, a rookie, has 131 yards in eight games this season, while Haskins has just 26 yards on 14 carries with a touchdown. The Chargers (9-6) can clinch a playoff berth with a win or tie against the Patriots. --Field Level Media

SHAFTSBURY — The Southwest Vermont Union Elementary School District Board ( ) voted recently to direct school principals to have the Pledge of Allegiance recited every day inside the school building. “The SVUESD board of directors directs the pledge of allegiance is to be recited on each school day inside the building before instructional time starts,” states the motion adopted by the board 5-1, with one abstention. The SVUESD discussion of the issue at a meeting on Dec. 17 took place under a time constraint because of the need to devote most the meeting to reviewing the district budget. The meeting was originally scheduled for Dec. 10 but did not take place due to the lack of a quorum. The Pledge issue came to the forefront in late September when the claim went viral on social media that Shaftsbury Elementary School had instituted a ban on the Pledge of Allegiance. Southwest Vermont Supervisory Union Superintendent James R. Culkeen quickly issued a statement denying that the pledge was banned and saying the SVUESD would work to develop a "consistent practice" regarding recital of the Pledge of Allegiance. In November, the board sent a draft practice on saying the Pledge to school principals to get feedback on how it worked in practice. The intent was to have a group recital of the pledge in a common area at each school right before the start of school. Student participation would be voluntary. Feedback to the Board from building principals would be anonymous but mandatory. At the Dec. 17 meeting, SVUESD Board Chair Christopher Murphy said that principals did not find this a workable option. “The feedback from the building principals that was shared with me by the superintendent was I think much what we anticipated: It’s not doable," he said. "The feedback we received was more or less unanimous from our building principals that the hope that they could organize, school-wide, what amounts to a school-wide gathering, each and every day, for the purpose of the Pledge is not doable. “So what the general request was from our building principals was if this board wishes the Pledge of Allegiance to be said during the school day, just like every other thing that the board wishes to be done, we give the directive to our principals and we empower our principals to enact the directive in the way that makes most sense for their schools,” he said. Murphy said that until recently there had never been a directive to the schools on whether or not the Pledge should be said. He suggested someone make a motion that directs the building principals to ensure that the Pledge of Allegiance is said each day in the school buildings. It would be left up to the principals to implement it. Board members raised several concerns during the discussion, including the exact definition of when instructional time starts. Two members expressed preference for the pledge to be said in classrooms. Cynthia Brownell said she has been on the board 23 years ‘and they’ve never had a problem saying the pledge in the classroom.” Murphy replied: “Do we know that to be a fact, Cindy? Because I don’t know that to be a fact.” “It has been done differently in all of the elementary schools of the SVUESD, when it’s been done at all," he added. "There are different things happening in each of our schools, and I know that I can say with any certainty that it’s definitely happened in a very specific way in all of our schools since forever, because I don’t know that to be the case.” Before the vote, Murphy acknowledged the difficulty in coming up with a directive that would please everyone: “I think it’s one of those situations where I’m unable to envision a solution that addresses all of the concerns that this board has raised and members of the public have raised, frankly.” The SVUESD is responsible for the prekindergarten through grade 6 classes in Pownal, Shaftsbury, Woodford, and pre-kindergarten through grade 5 in the town of Bennington.INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — The National Weather Service at Indianapolis on Tuesday afternoon issued a special statement on snow coming Wednesday to central Indiana. In central Indiana, snow showers and snow squalls are expected to develop Wednesday afternoon and evening. These showers have the potential to produce brief periods of heavy snow, whiteout conditions, wind gusts over 40 mph, and flash freezing on surfaces. Conditions can deteriorate rapidly with strong snow showers with little warning. Traveling will likely be hazardous at times, especially during the evening commute. In southern Indiana, the weather service at Louisville, Kentucky also issued a special statement on Tuesday afternoon. “Late Tuesday night a strong upper level disturbance will move into the region from the northwest and produce a band of light snow that is expected to move eastward across southern Indiana and central Kentucky. This band is likely to develop near the I-65 corridor well after midnight and then shift eastward toward the I-75 corridor by sunrise Wednesday. Overnight temperatures are expected to drop into the upper 20s and lower 30s. Some minor accumulations of snow will be possible east of I 65. The recent warmth and warm ground temps will likely limit snow accumulations to elevated decks and roof tops. While road surface temperatures are expected to remain in the mid-upper 30s, bridges and overpasses could become slick Wednesday morning. If you have travel plans for early Wednesday morning, stay abreast of the latest forecasts and weather conditions. Later in the day on Wednesday, scattered snow showers and snow squalls are expected to develop in the afternoon and continue into the evening hours. Little if any accumulation is expected during the afternoon. However, temperatures will drop to near freezing by late afternoon and near sunset which may result in slick spots developing on roads where the snow showers and snow squalls cross. Motorists traveling Wednesday afternoon and evening should exercise caution. Indiana Department of Transportation’s east district, which serves Indianapolis, said in a Tuesday afternoon social media post that its plows have been out preparing the roads for Wednesday’s snow. “We do want to highlight that snow will not be the biggest threat tomorrow, it will be the wind at 35+ mph aka a snow squall,” INDOT’s east district says. A FutureCast image from Storm Track 8 with this story shows the snowfall amounts expected Thursday.Type: color ink tank printer Functions: Print, scan, copy, mobile fax (send only) Connectivity: USB, Wi-Fi Data storage slots: none Print speed: 15ppm (mono) Max paper size: Letter/A4 Max print quality: 4,800 x 1,200 dpi Memory: 128MB Apple AirPrint: yes Consumables included: 5 x 80ml ink bottles (8,000 color or 6,000 black pages) Dimensions/Weight: 723 x 435 x 285 mm (WxDxH)/71.4lb/32.4kg The HP Smart Tank 7001 (or 7005 in the UK and Europe) is a refillable inkjet aimed at the home or the office. It’s a neat desktop design with enough room for 250 sheets of Letter paper in its protruding tray and a Letter-sized scanner bed on top. Self-healing dual-band wi-fi and Bluetooth are built in and it can auto-duplex, but there’s no multipurpose input tray and no touchscreen. If that seems mean for a printer costing around US$260 (£230), remember that this is a supertank, so you’ll save money on ink in the long term and there’s a generous amount of ink in the box. But Smart Tank makes up a relatively small part of HP’s printer line-up so let’s see how it compares to the best ink tank printers , from MegaTanks to EcoTanks, currently crowding the market. HP Smart Tank 7001: Design and build The HP Smart Tank 7001 (let's stick with the US name now) looks pretty sharp with its crisp lines, light basalt livery and seamlessly integrated ink tanks. It’s only a pity the paper tray sticks out at the front like that, because it makes the footprint larger than that of its two nearest rivals, the Canon PIXMA G3270 and Epson EcoTank ET-2850 . But being larger, does enable it to hold more paper. With room for 250 sheets of Letter, or A4 paper instead of the 100-sheet capacity of its peers, it could serve an office more efficiently. The four ink reservoirs are about the same size as those of the Canon and Epson, holding 70ml of each colored ink and 135ml of black. That’s enough to keep you printing for two years, according to HP in the US. In the UK, HP says three years because there’s one extra bottle in the box, so I’ll take both claims with a very large pinch of salt. Clear plastic windows into these tanks make it easy to check your levels at a glance, which is important because running out of ink can allow problematic air bubbles into the system. The tiny two-line display is not backlit, so it’s harder to see, as are the small black buttons of the up-facing control panel. HP Smart Tank 7001 at HP US for $399.99 The plastic casing and the various plastic flaps all feel rather flimsy, especially the scanner cover. The glass scanner platen is also Letter-sized, offering a more satisfactory way to scan documents than a phone camera. There’s a connection at the back for a USB data cable, but no front USB Host port and no Ethernet port. Lift up the scanner and you’ll see the lids of the four ink tanks and the two moving printheads. Unlike Epson and Canon’s printers, these print heads are replaceable, which could be an advantage. HP Smart Tank 7001: Features & specifications Compared to the best all-in-one printers at this price point, the features list might look a little thin, but remember that this is a supertank so you’re benefiting from the low running cost and plentiful inbox ink. There’s no touchscreen, for example, no USB Host port, no ADF (automatic document feed), no NFC and no multipurpose input. It’s a similar story with Epson and Canon’s entry-level ink tanks. It does come with dual-band wi-fi with Apple AirPrint compatibility and a scanner. It does not possess an inbuilt fax modem, but it can receive and print a fax by using the HP Smart app to harness your smartphone. If you want to send a fax, you’ll need to step up to the $400 HP Smart Tank 7602, which also sports an ADF. One thing the HP Smart Tank 7001 does offer over and above the competition is Bluetooth, which I found to be a real advantage during the initial setup procedure. HP Smart Tank 7001: Setup and operation The setup process for the HP Smart Tank 7001 is similar to any new inkjet, except for two extra steps. You have to pour your ink from bottles into the tanks and attach the two printheads. The easiest way to get started is to download HP’s companion app called HP Smart and use that to get your printer onto your local wi-fi network. Making a wi-fi connection with a new printer always feels like it’s in the hands of the gods, but Bluetooth connecting is more reliable. Letting your smartphone then share your wi-fi details saves you from having to type in the password, something that would take ages using the printer’s primitive non-touchscreen display. Pouring ink into the tanks is not too fiddly, but neither is it completely fool-proof, as it is with Canon and Epson’s systems. I’ve read user reviews where new owners have spilled ink and even poured it into the wrong tank, so be careful! I found that pouring in three quarters of each bottle was not enough to satisfy the HP’s sensors. Unlike Canon and Epson, you need to fill to the brim to proceed with setup. The only disadvantage of a ink tank printer is that transporting them when the tanks are full is a potential hazard. In operation, the HP Smart Tank 7001 is fine, although there’s no denying that it would be easier with a touchscreen interface. The two-line display is not easy to see. HP are probably assuming that we’ll all be using the app on our smartphones and laptops to control the printer and to be fair, that is the best way to do it. HP Smart works equally well on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac and Chrome. The only problems I encountered were paper jams, or to be precise, the printer’s failure to turn pages in order to print the other side when auto duplexing. This happened any time the paper in the tray was less than perfectly flat. HP Smart Tank 7001: Performance The HP Smart Tank 7001 performed some tasks well, and others poorly. Consecutive pages of text appear at a rapid and reliable rate of 15 per minute in simplex mode and the characters look black and bold with no overrun. At point size four, everything is still legible and whenever I try to smudge the print with my thumb as the pages emerge, the pigment ink is already set and smudge resistant. The same is true in draft mode. The print is just slightly paler and less sharp, but still acceptable. The problem comes when auto duplexing as any slight crease in the paper prevents the printer from turning the page successfully. After printing one side, the paper is thrust out and drawn back in ready to turn, except that it cannot seem to align the paper in order to pull it all the way in. You can play tug of war with the stricken page until it’s aligned correctly, but most of the time the printer gives up and flashes an error message instead. From trawling user reviews, I can see I’m not the only one to experience this problem. In simplex mode, the HP printed successfully on a range of paper stock, from 4” x 6” glossy photo paper to card up to 200g/m2 in weight. That’s not actually very thick and the fact that its rivals can handle 300g/m2 card suggests that the HP just isn’t very good at handling paper. Printing in color shows how vibrant HP’s ink is. Color documents really catch the eye with their bright reds and blues. With photos on photo paper, the colors look a little too bright making them feel unrealistic. So, while photos are initially quite pleasing for their strong detail and bold colors, they don’t stack up against photos from a dedicated photo printer. The scanner worked flawlessly despite the disconcerting way its light flashes the whole time the scanner lid is open. You can hit the copy button on the machine or scan using the HP Smart app where you have the option of choosing the number of copies and to reduce or enlarge them. The scan resolution is 1,200dpi and the duplicates look almost as sharp and only slightly paler than the original. HP Smart Tank 7001: Consumables HP’s bottled ink is around 80 percent cheaper than its cartridge ink, but it’s essentially the same stuff. In this case, the three colors, cyan, magenta and yellow are dye-based while black is a pigment. That’s quite common with office inkjets where a pigment black, which is more resistant to smudging and fading, works best for black and white text handouts, while dyes are better suited to color images. There are five or six ink bottles in the box depending on where you purchased the printer. The 135-ml bottle of black ink (HP 32XL) yields 6,000 monochrome pages, while the three 70ml bottles of C/M/Y should yield 8,000 color pages. That’s an order of magnitude more than the ink in one of HP’s inkjet cartridges. HP Smart Tank 7001: Maintenance Just like any of the best inkjet printers , ink tank printers don’t like being left unused for long periods because the liquid ink dries on the printhead, clogging the nozzles. To clean it you can usually just run a printhead cleaning cycle or two, and because bottled ink is relatively cheap, that’s less of a problem for supertanks. This printer is somewhat unusual in having two replaceable printheads, one black and one tricolor. Assuming this doesn’t mean they are prone to failing, it suggests that the printer’s operational life can be extended by simply buying new print heads, which are reasonably priced. HP Smart Tank 7001: Final verdict Supertank printers often appear overpriced because we’re used to cartridge-based inkjets being subsidized by the inflated cost of their cartridges, but that razor-and-blades business model does not apply here. Comparing the HP Smart Tank 7001/7005 with other supertanks suggests that it’s pretty fair value. There’s no touchscreen display, no NFC, no ADF and only one input, but it does have other features. There’s a decent Letter-sized scanner and strong wireless connectivity with dual-band wi-fi and Bluetooth. The 250-sheet paper capacity beats its nearest supertank rivals and there’s a useful amount of bottled ink in the box. It prints both monochrome and color documents well and fairly quickly too, but it’s not great with photographs, which look a bit garish. And it’s not great at handling paper stock. The 200g/m2 card limitation is very light and the trouble it had during the test in turning over imperfect sheets of paper while duplexing is a concern. There’s no doubt HP’s bottled ink printer offers better value than a comparable cartridge-bound HP, but it faces strong competition from other supertanks by Canon and Epson. Canon’s equivalent offers better photo quality, while Epson beats HP on overall performance. However, with its higher paper capacity and faster print speed, the HP Smart Tank 7001/7005 is better qualified for an office job.
