Airbnb Had Housing Activists Pushed Into a "Free Speech Zone"
This weekend Airbnb held its first-ever conference for hosts in San Francisco. Inside, executives restated the company's goal to win a Nobel Peace Prize. Outside, local cops allegedly shoved housing activists who were protesting Airbnb's role in the eviction crisis, confining demonstrators into a "free speech" pen.
The protest was attended by a small number of activists, including someone in a pig costume and a few people demanding compensation from Airbnb after being evicted by landlords. As the protest wore on, activists allege that the cops showed up and demanded they enter a free speech corral.
[Police] arrived in three cars and escorted the protestors to an encaged "Free Speech Zone," which the protestors refused to enter. One protestor was pushed down by the police and was injured. Another protestor, dressed in a pig costume calling attention to the greed behind Airbnb's ironic business model, was harassed by the police and threatened.
The protesters did very little to get the attention of Airbnb and the police: they read an open letter to the company, held up signs, and sang a cabaret song about evictions.

%% A pathological function of Weierstrass
% Hrothgar, 29th October 2013

%%
% (Chebfun example approx/WeierstrassFunction.m)
% [Tags: #Weierstrass, #approximation, #infinite series]

%%
%
LW = 'linewidth'; FS = 'fontsize'; format compact

%%
% In the late nineteenth century, Karl Weierstrass rocked the analysis community
% when he constructed an example of a function that is everywhere continuous but
% nowhere differentiable. His now eponymous function, also one of the first
% appearances of fractal geometry, is defined as the sum $$ \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}
% a^k \cos(b^k \pi x), $$ where $0 < a < 1$ and $b$ is a positive odd integer
% with $ab < 1 + \frac32 \pi$. Since its publication, Weierstrass' work has been
% generalized in many directions.

%%
% Chebfun is designed for work with functions with a bit of smoothness, but in
% this example we will see how Chebfun fares against a pathological function
% lying on the edge of discontinuity.

%%
% Let us consider the Weierstrass-type function $$ F(x) = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}
% 2^{-k} \cos\left( \frac{\pi}{2} 4^k x \right) $$ on the interval $[-1, 1]$.
% With its default parameter settings, Chebfun resolves the first eight iterates
% to machine precision, but not the ninth.
f_k = @(k) @(x) 2^-k * cos(pi/2*x*4^k);
F{1} = chebfun(f_k(0));
for k = 1:8,
    F{k+1} = F{k} + chebfun(f_k(k));
end

%%
% Here is what the unresolved ninth iterate looks like.
plot(F{9}, 'k-', LW, 1)
title('A pathological function of Weierstrass', FS, 16)

%%
% We must zoom in two hundred times to see that Chebfun is in fact plotting a
% smooth function.
Fzoom = chebfun(F{9}, [0,0.01]);
plot(Fzoom, 'k-', 'numpts', 5000, LW, 1)
title('Close-up of Weierstrass approximant', FS, 16)

%%
% The function $F(x)$ is not differentiable, but it is integrable. For this
% particular Weierstrass function, the exact value of the integral can be found
% easily. We begin with $$ \int_{-1}^{1} F(x)\mathrm{d}x = \int_{-1}^{1}
% \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} f_k(x) \mathrm{d}x = \int_{-1}^{1} \sum_{k=0}^{\infty}
% 2^{-k} \cos\left( \frac{\pi}{2}4^k x \right) \mathrm{d}x. $$ Because $\int
% \sum |f_k| < \infty$, we can move the integral inside the sum and evaluate
% each term as $$ \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \int_{-1}^{1} 2^{-k} \cos\left(
% \frac{\pi}{2}4^k x \right) \mathrm{d}x = \sum_{k=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{8^k}
% \frac{4}{\pi} \sin\left( \frac{\pi}{2} 4^k \right).$$ However, $\sin(
% \frac{\pi}{2} 4^k ) = 0$ for all $k > 0$, so the sum is equal to its first
% term, $\frac{4}{\pi}$.

%%
% Let's check our answer against Chebfun's.
sum(F{9}) - 4/pi

%%
% A more difficult problem is to find the global minimum of $F(x)$ on the
% interval $[-1, 1]$. Even if it were possible to differentiate $F$ to find
% where $F'(x) = 0$, we would discover infinitely many local extrema. Of course,
% Chebfun's representation of $F$ is a polynomial approximant, so we can locate
% the roots of the derivative for any iterate. As we may expect, performance
% rapidly gets worse as we take more terms.
tt = []; xx = []; mm = [];
for k = 2:2:8,
    tic
    [mm(k/2), xx(k/2)] = min(F{k});
    tt(k/2) = toc;
end
str = [sprintf('%2s %11s %16s %19s\n', 'k', 'x_min', 'F_k(x_min)', 'computation time') ...
       repmat('-',1,52) sprintf('\n') ...
       sprintf('%2d %12.7f %+15.7f %11.2f sec\n', [(2:2:8); xx; mm; tt])];
disp(str)

%%
% Chebfun is slowly converging to the actual solution given by $F_{min} =
% \sin(\frac{\pi}{5}) - \cos(\frac{\pi}{5}) = -0.2212317420...$ at the points $x
% = \pm \frac35$. Chebfun's difficulty is not with accurately locating the
% minima: the x_min iterates are geometrically converging to the correct
% solution as they should. The problem is that the iterates' global minima so
% slowly converge to the global minimum of $F$ while Chebfun must deal with
% polynomials of geometrically increasing degree.

An EPG database for a home entertainment system includes files that contain information about television programs retrievable by time and channel. The files are linked to each other so information about a future television program can be obtained by accessing a file about a current television program. A current television program displayed on the screen of a home entertainment system includes an announcement or advertisement of a future television program. The availability of an electronic program guide function (e.g., record, watch, details, display time, display channel, display by theme, and Internet connection) is signaled during, before, or after the announcement. A command is issued to invoke the EPG function. The information about the future television program is retrieved from the file about the current television program in the database. The EPG function is executed with the retrieved information. As a result, an EPG function can be performed with respect to a future television program without embedding information about the future television program in the television signal.
This application is a continuation of U.S. Non-Provisional application Ser. No. 09/355,860, filed on Aug. 4, 1999 and now abandoned, which is a U.S. National Stage Entry Application of PCT Patent Application No. PCT/US99/01425 filed on Jan. 23, 1999, which claims priority to and benefits of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/072396, filed on Jan. 23, 1998, the entirety of each of these applications is incorporated herein by reference.
The disclosures of the following patent applications are also incorporated fully herein by reference: published International Application WO96/07270 published Mar. 7, 1996; U.S. Application No. 60/053,330 filed Jul. 21, 1997; U.S. Application No. 60/061,119 filed Oct. 6, 1997; U.S. Application No. 60/055,237 filed Aug. 12, 1997, and U.S. application Ser. No. 09/120,488 filed Jul. 21, 1998.
This invention relates to a home entertainment system and a method for its operation and, more particularly, to facilitation of electronic program guide (EPG) functions with respect to the promotion of future television programs in a home entertainment system.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,977,455 which issued on Dec. 11, 1990 discloses a system and process for supplying supplemental information after a user responds to a cue. The cue is provided during a broadcast to indicate the availability of the supplemental information relating to the broadcast. The supplemental information is preferably sent at a later time, although schedule information for the supplemental information is sent with the broadcast. After the user responds to the cue, the schedule information is first stored and is then used to record the supplemental information. In one embodiment, supplemental data is sent in the VBI of the video signal.
According to one aspect of the invention, a current television program displayed on the screen of a home entertainment system includes an announcement or advertisement of a future television program. The availability of an electronic program guide function is signaled during, before, or after the announcement. A command is issued to invoke the EPG function. An EPG database for the home entertainment system includes files that contain information about television programs retrievable by time and channel. The files are linked to each other so information about a future television program can be obtained by accessing a file about a current television program. The information about the future television program is retrieved from the file about the current television program in the database. The EPG function is executed with the retrieved information. As a result, an EPG function can be performed with respect to a future television program without embedding information about the future television program in the television signal.
The invention can be used to perform various EPG functions, including, without limitation, record, watch, details, display time, display channel, display by theme, and Internet connection.
According to an optional feature of the invention, a menu of choices is displayed in response to a command after display of an icon signaling the availability of an EPG function during, before or after the announcement.
In a specific embodiment of the invention, an icon is displayed on a television screen during a telecast of an announcement or advertisement of a later telecast program or some other type of visual or audio signal alerts the viewer that an electronic program guide (EPG) function can be performed without actually entering the EPG or at least not entering the EPG from the beginning.
For example, if the viewer wants to record on a VCR the program being advertised, the viewer issues an appropriate command from a remote controller, e.g., clicks on the icon with the select or enter key of the remote, and the time and channel of the advertised program are stored in the recording stack memory of the VCR. Preferably, a message is displayed momentarily in a box on the screen to confirm that the function will be performed. If desired a query could also be displayed whether the program should be displayed once or on more occasions, e.g., daily or weekly.
Or, for example, if the viewer wants to see more details about the advertised program, the viewer clicks on the icon and the details are retrieved from the RAM in which the EPG data is stored and either replace the advertisement on the screen or are displayed in an on-screen box. Alternatively, the advertisement could be displayed in a PIP window in accordance with the referenced PCT application.
Or, for example, if the viewer wishes to see what other programs are being telecast at the same time, on the same channel, or with the same theme as the advertised program, the viewer clicks on the icon and the EPG is displayed for the same day and time, the same channel, or the same theme as the advertised program.
If more than one function is available to the viewer, the choice of functions is first displayed in a menu when the viewer clicks on the icon and the function is executed when the viewer thereafter clicks on one of the displayed choices.
A home entertainment system is shown in FIG. 1. A source of television signals 10 such as a terrestrial antenna, or a cable is connected to a television tuner 11. The output of tuner 11 is a modulated intermediate frequency signal containing video and audio television information.
Tuner 11 is connected by an intermediate frequency amplifier (IF AMP) 12 to a picture detector (PICTURE DET) 13 and a sound detector (SOUND DET) 14, which produce base band video and audio signals, respectively. The audio signal is coupled by a sound amplifier (SOUND AMP) 15 to a loudspeaker 16. The video signal is coupled by a video amplifier not shown to one input of a switch 18. Sound detector 14 and picture detector 13 are connected to the audio and video inputs, respectively, of a video cassette recorder (VCR) 17. (Alternatively, television signal source 10 could be directly connected to the RF input of VCR 17 in well known fashion, if its internal tuner and demodulating circuitry are to be utilized.) The output of VCR 17 is connected to the other input of switch 18. The output of switch 18 is connected to one input of a conventional picture-in-picture (PIP) integrated circuit chip 19. The output of PIP chip 19 is connected to the video input of a television receiver or display monitor (TV) 20 having a screen (not shown).
An updatable data base of the schedule of program listings of all the available channels for a prescribed period of time, e.g., a day or a week, is electronically stored in a program schedule memory 22, preferably a RAM. Memory 22 is connected to a microprocessor 24 that is configured, i.e., programmed, to control the operation of the described equipment. An operating program for microprocessor 24 is stored in a read only memory (ROM) 26. These program listings typically include for each program the title, a program description (detail), the day of the week, the start time of the day, the program length, and the channel on which the program is transmitted and thus available for reception at source 10. These program listings are retrievable by time and channel. Further, to implement the invention these program listings are organized into files; the files are linked to each other so information about a future television program that is advertised in an earlier television program can be obtained by accessing a file about the earlier television program. The data base can be updated by a data transmission link in the vertical blanking interval (VBI) of a television channel broadcast to the television receiver in well known fashion. A VBI decoder 38 is connected between PICTURE DET 13 and microprocessor 24 for this purpose. Alternatively, the data base can be updated by unplugging memory 22 and replacing it with a memory having the updated data base or by another data transmission link such as an Internet connection or a pager in the 900 MHz band. A viewer input device 28, preferably in the form of a remote IR controller, is coupled to microprocessor 24 to issue commands from the viewer. A video processor 30 is coupled to microprocessor 24. When the viewer wishes to see television program listings, microprocessor 24 recalls a portion of the program schedule data base from memory 22 and couples it to video processor 30, where the program listings are formatted for display. Preferably, the information stored in video processor 30 is a bit map of what is displayed on the screen of television receiver 20. Video processor 30 is connected through a switch 40 to the other input of PIP chip 19. Preferably, viewer input device 28 controls microprocessor 24 by cursor movement on the screen of television receiver 20. To this end, microprocessor 24 and video processor 30 are coupled to a cursor position register 32. (Alternatively, the viewer can select items of information displayed on the screen by keying into viewer input device 28 code numbers assigned to these items.) Microprocessor 24 is also coupled to tuner 11 for channel change, to VCR 17 for play/record selection and start/stop, to switches 18 and 40 for selection of one of their inputs, and to PIP chip 19 for selection of the mode of PIP operation. An Internet connection 42 through a telephone line or bidirectional cable is controlled by microprocessor 24. Microprocessor 24 retrieves the address of the web site to which the viewer wants to connect. Internet connection 42 has the components required for implementing Web TV. The informatioin recovered from the addressed web site is coupled from Internet connection 42 through switch 40 to the one input of PIP chip 19 for display on the screen of TV 20.
In operation, tuner 11 is set to a viewer selected channel by microprocessor 24 responsive to input device 28. During a commercial break in the television program on the selected channel, an announcement or advertisement for another television program to be telecast at a later time is displayed on the screen of TV 20. Transmitted as part of the image of the advertisement is an icon that signals to the viewer that it is possible to link to an EPG function. Alternatively, the icon could be transmitted in the VBI during the advertisement, recovered by VBI decoder 38, transformed into graphic form in video processor 30, and overlayed on the image of the advertisement. (If desired the icon could be displayed immediately before or immediately after the advertisement.) The advertisement designated 50 and an icon 52 are illustrated in FIG. 2.
8. return to the television program.
The viewer selects one of the functions for example by moving a cursor to the menu item and then issuing another command to invoke the selected function. For example, the viewer could highlight "3." and click to display details about the advertised program.
If the viewer wishes to extinguish box 50, the viewer selects "8", the return function.
Other functions not listed in FIG. 3 could also be offered. For example, all the times the advertised program is telecast could be displayed on the screen or a news story related to the advertised program could be displayed on the screen, particularly in the case of a sporting event.
With reference to the above PCT application, the EPG information about the television programs is retrievable by time and channel; for example a pre-established time list includes addresses that point to show information packages (SIP) for the television programs. Each television program that has an icon 52 includes in its SIP an address pointing to the schedule information, i.e., day, time, channel, and length, of the advertised program to be telecast at a later time, thereby linking the information of the two television programs. If the "record" or "watch" function is selected, the channel is read from tuner 11 and the time is read from a real time clock in microprocessor 24. From this information, the pointer of the SIP for the current television program is retrieved from the pre-established time list. The retrieved pointer permits microprocessor 24 to find the SIP for the current television program, which contains the address pointing to the schedule information for the advertised program. The schedule information is stored in a memory stack so microprocessor 23 can set tuner 11 to the proper channel and turn on the VCR for unattended future recording or turn on the television for automatic future watching at the appointed time in well known fashion.
The program listing files stored in memory 22 could be organized in any number of other ways so long as the information about the future programs being advertised is "linked" to a current program, i.e., can be retrieved when a current program is being displayed with an EPG function signaling icon. For example, the information about the future programs could be linked to the current programs including advertisements by being part of the same file as the current programs instead of being linked by a pointer.
4. each time program in a series (e.g., the NBA championship games) is telecast.
The viewer selects one of the record options for example by moving a cursor to a menu item, e.g., "3." and clicking to record the advertised program weekly.
As an additional feature, if the series option is selected in FIG. 4, a list of each occurrence of the episodes of the series may be displayed; when a particular episode is selected, a synopsis of the episode would then be displayed. From the synopsis the viewer could select individual episodes of the series to schedule to watch or record.
The menus shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 could be stored in memory 22 along with the EPG data base and overlayed on the image of the advertisement by means of a video switch or other means not represented in FIG. 1.
If the detail function is selected, the detail (program description) information is retrieved from the SIP of the future program being advertised and displayed on the screen of TV 20.
If the time, channel, or theme function is selected, the channel is read from tuner 11 and the time is read from a real time clock in microprocessor 24. From this information, the pointer or pointers of the desired SIP or SIP's are retrieved from the preestablished time list. The retrieved pointer or pointers permit microprocessor 24 to find the desired SIP or SIP's, from which the program listings for the same time, channel, or theme as the advertised program are extracted and fed to video processor 30 for display on the screen of the monitor in the same manner as the data for an ordinary guide described in the referenced PCT application.
If the Internet function is selected, the system sets up a connection to a web site where more information is available about the other television program to which the announcement or advertisement relates. The web site address (URL) could be embedded in the VBI of the television signal that carries the announcement, stored at the television receiver in the EPG data base as part of the SIP for the current television program, or retrieved from a central data base via a telephone connection. After the Internet connection is established, as illustrated in FIG. 5, the television program is displayed in a PIP window 58 with the web site information in the background 60, or vis-a-versa. Alternatively, the web site information could replace the television program on the screen. In either case, the viewer can navigate about the web site in the normal fashion to find the desired information.
Instead of appearing during an announcement or advertisement, icon 52 could appear during a television program itself. When the viewer issues the command in response to icon 52, a box 62 is displayed on the screen. An announcement or advertisement of the later telecast program appears in box 62. If the viewer is interested in the later telecast program, the viewer issues another command from input device 28 and box 54 (FIG. 3) is displayed as described above.
Instead of an announcement or advertisement of a later telecast program, the announcement could relate to a current program on another channel. This is particularly applicable to a network that telecasts a plurality of programs concurrently on different channels, as is the case in the HDTV environment. The network can thus promote its other program offerings being telecast at the same time. The viewer can record the other program and continue to watch the program he or she had been watching. Thus, the term "future programs" in this specification is used for ease of comprehension of the inventive principles, but this term also refers to a current program on another channel.
Another alternative is to store one or more announcements of a later telecast program or programs while the television set is turned off. After the television set is turned on, icon 52 is displayed on the screen to alert the viewer that there are stored announcements. As the viewer issues a command from input device 28, the announcements appear on the screen, as illustrated in FIG. 6, in succession. If the viewer is interested in the announced program, the viewer issues another command from input device 28 and box 54 (FIG. 3) is displayed as described above.
Instead of a single icon 52 (FIG. 1) that invokes a menu of choices of EPG functions (FIG. 3), a plurality of icons 52 a, 52 b, and 52 c could be displayed as shown in FIG. 7 to bypass the menu of FIG. 3. Each icon is marked with a mnemonic to enable the viewer to distinguish it from the other icons, e.g., "R" stands for "record", "W" stands for "watch", and "D" stands for "details". When the viewer selects one of the icons, e.g., by clicking on the selected icon, the corresponding EPG function is invoked directly.
The described embodiments of the invention are only considered to be preferred and illustrative of the inventive concept; the scope of the invention is not to be restricted to such embodiment. Various and numerous other arrangements may be devised by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of this invention. For example, although a visual icon is preferred, an audible signal could be given to alert the viewer to the presence of an announcement or advertisement. Further, if only the record function is available, the menu of FIG. 3 could be bypassed and the menu of FIG. 4 could be displayed directly; alternatively, if only one other EPG function is available, the menu of FIG. 3 could be bypassed in favor of a prompt to confirm the EPG function or the display of some other appropriate prompting menu.

Titus vineyards is a small property with vineyards in two distinct areas of the Napa valley, mostly around their sparkling new winery on the Silverado trail, just west of St Helena. After much faffing about the right time and place to build their own winery, they finally decided to grub up some vines in a less productive corner of one of their vineyards. Here they have built the most beautiful and perfectly efficient, state of the art winery. They cut the ribbon just in time to do their first crush in September 2015 and we look forward to seeing the fruits of their labours very soon. Until now the team have used a nearby 'custom-crush' facility to put the Titus wines together, so things are looking up here and these are exciting times for the estate Titus is run by Eric and Philip Titus who took over the project from their father. Eric is in charge of the viticulture and Philip, who makes the wine at nearby Chappelet helps Titus' head-winemaker Stephen Cruzan with the vinification. The Titus wines form the core of the range, but their little brother 'Andronicus' is a fabulous addition, offering a taste of Napa at a great price. These are all beautifully made wines and after 15 years of working together we love how they offer drinkers top Napa Valley quality and style - without the often eye-watering price levels.

NEW YORK (AP) Revis Island is under repair.
New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis had surgery Thursday in Manhattan to repair a torn ligament in his right wrist and is expected to be in a hard cast for two to three months.
The team announced that Revis will be limited during the offseason program, which begins April 18. He is expected to be fully recovered for training camp in late-July.
Revis was selected for his seventh Pro Bowl last season, but didn't play because of what was announced as a sore shoulder. The star cornerback also had soreness in the wrist after the season and it lingered into the offseason.
Further tests and examinations revealed last week he had a torn ligament that required surgery. The procedure was performed by renowned hand-wrist specialist Dr. Charles Melone, the head of the Beth Israel Hand Surgery Center in New York.
Revis was never listed on the team's injury report with a wrist ailment, but it apparently began feeling sore early in the season. It was initially believed Revis simply had a sprain and played through it while wearing a brace on his wrist after Week 3 against Philadelphia.
Revis, 30, ended up having a solid year, but was criticized for some uncharacteristic struggles in a few games. He never publicly used the wrist as an excuse, but it affected his ability to punch and jam receivers at the line of scrimmage - one of Revis' biggest assets.
He also missed two games with a severe concussion.
Despite the injuries, Revis had five interceptions in his return to the Jets after playing one season in Tampa Bay and then helping New England win the Super Bowl in February 2015. He signed with New York in the offseason for five years and $70 million, coming back to the team with which he spent his first six NFL seasons.

Sunderland close in on signing as Welsh international is in frame
Sunderland remain confident of securing their first January signing in the coming days - as Chris Coleman targets committed players who can handle the pressure.
Updated Friday, 5th January 2018, 9:35 pm
Ethan Ampadu
The Black Cats had hoped to include a new face in the squad for today's FA Cup third round tie with Middlesbrough at the Riverside (KO 1pm).
But Sunderland were dealt a blow when the loan deal, believed to be for a youngster at a Premier League side, was pushed back.
The deal is still very much on but the Gazette has learned the player in question is likely to be used by his parent club this weekend after his manager decided to include the player in his squad.
The Echo understands the deal is likely to go through either later this weekend or early next week.
Exciting Liverpool prospect Ben Woodburn is not thought to be the player Coleman had hoped to land on Friday. The 18-year-old forward does though remain a firm target for Sunderland.
Coleman is known to have made with contact with Chelsea over the availability of some of their younger players.
One option could be promising Chelsea and Wales star Ethan Ampadu. Coleman gave the 17-year-old his international debut in November.
The defensive midfielder is highly rated by Chelsea boss Antonio Conte but he could be allowed out on loan to further his development and Coleman knows the former Exeter City man well.
Despite his tender years Ampadu has already made four appearances for Chelsea and is involved in their FA Cup squad for their game against Norwich City this evening.
Coleman is hoping to sign up to five new players this month in a bid to breathe fresh energy into the battle for survival with Sunderland bottom of the Championship.
Coleman hasn't been used to the frantic nature of the transfer window having managed Wales for six years - but he has outlined the type of characters he wants to attract.
"Ask me at the end of the window [whether I enjoy it]," said Coleman.
"If I've got what I wanted, and that the loan deals we've been chasing come off.
"All I want is a committed, honest group of players who are excited to be here and embrace the pressure, 'let's have a go at it'.
"So at the end of the window when I know what we've got you can say 'OK, let's go for it'.
"At the moment there is a bit of toing and froing, 'does he really want to be here or doesn't he?' 'Are we going to get this kid or not'.
"I'm not been used to it for a while but I also know that it can really help us."
Coleman's squad is in desperate need of strengthening, with injury concerns over 13 players ahead of the game against Boro.
Sunderland's business will focus on loan signings this month with the Black Cats only able to make permanent additions if players leave first, with Lamine Kone and Didier Ndong the most saleable assets.


Ben Ben's rescue story is a little dramatic compared to every other rescue tales we have. It all started when a friend of our volunteer called in Nov 2014.
The friend's sister-in-law neglected Ben Ben constantly and after seeing it happen time and again, the friend decided to call in to Purely Adoptions for help. Our volunteer, Wendy, went down and was shocked to see the severe neglect of Ben Ben; he was underweight, had long nails and matted fur filled with pee and poo. He seemed abandoned, left to stay at the balcony, with smelly mucus, and rotten teeth. Upon the friend's request and with the sister-in-law's consent, Wendy took the dog away.
All seems fine and we were ready to take on a new case of finding an adopter. However, the sister-in-law went back on her words. It turned out that Ben Ben belonged to her husband, who obviously did not take proper care of Ben Ben as well. Her husband was livid that the dog was taken away and demanded to get Ben Ben back.
Wendy and her friend both opposed that idea as they knew they would simply be sending Ben Ben back into the fire pit. This angered the husband who eventually went to the police, AVA and SPCA. To our greatest relief, all of them agreed with us that they are not suitable and responsible dog owners and decided to treat it as an animal abuse case.
Ben Ben was awarded to Wendy. This was very much to our relief as we know we could take much better care of Ben Ben and find a good home for him. Wendy cared for it dearly in the mean time and took Ben Ben to the vet to remove his numerous rotten teeth.
As the case closed, we quickly set out to find an adopter for Ben Ben. We knew this would be tough as he is a 12 year old Yorkshire Terrier, a senior dog who is not very popular amongst adopters. Our search went on for 6 whole months. Never once did we give up hope albeit the difficulties. With a strong belief that all dogs deserve a good home, we finally found two kind souls willing to adopt Ben Ben.
11 April 2015: Ben Ben is finally adopted.
Thank you Elvina and Lucas for accepting Ben Ben (now renamed PePe) and giving the 12 year old a second chance. He had practically no chance of being rehomed until you guys came along. We could see the immense joy in PePe when Elvina runs kisses on his face and when Lucas plays the ball with him.
Our journey has never been an easy one, especially when tasked to rehome senior dogs. However, we know we must persevere and seek out all means because this is what we believe in and a special purpose we struck out to accomplish. We are glad that our hardwork and efforts are rewarded time and again such as in the case of PePe.
We are Purely for Adoptions and signing off with the sincere believe that all dogs deserves a good home.

First Wallabies-France Test relocated due to Covid-19
The Wallabies lineup
The Wallabies' opening Test against France has been shifted from Sydney to Brisbane after the Australia's biggest city was thrust into a two-week coronavirus lockdown.
Rugby Australia chief Andy Marinos said the decision to move the 7 July clash was to ensure the welfare of players, staff and fans.
"It's never an easy decision to move a fixture. One thing that the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us is that we have to be able to pivot quickly," he said.
"We will continue to work with the respective health authorities around Australia to ensure all events are safely delivered for fans, players and officials."
Sydney entered its first full day of lockdown on Sunday as it works to contain an outbreak of the highly contagious Delta variant.
So far, there have been more than 110 cases reported since a driver for an international flight crew tested positive in mid-June.
The second Test is scheduled for Melbourne on 13 July before the third and final game in Brisbane four days later.
With Sydney missing out, Marinos announced the city would instead host the Wallabies' Rugby Championship showdown with South Africa on 12 September, a fixture that had previously been announced but without a venue.
The 42-man French squad, coached by former captain Fabien Galthie, is currently undergoing 14 days of mandatory quarantine in Sydney ahead of the series.
It is heavy on youth with Les Bleus without a host of first-choice players due to the Top 14 final between Toulouse and La Rochelle.
