Editor's note: This article was originally published on January 24, 2020. It has since been updated. Everybody loves a story about an underdog who makes it in the end. While those stories are plenty in movies or books, they are so rare in real life. Sometimes, however, a story comes by that gives you hope again. This is one of those stories. When Jayvee Lazaro Badile II was just a baby, he was adopted by a rather poor couple in the Philippines. He didn't really have much to call his own when he was growing up, but he was thankful to have a loving family. They gave him a real chance at life. Now all grown up, he's become a successful businessman. So he decided to repay his parents with the life they'd always dreamed of.

While athletes may have far to travel to Paris, spare a thought for all the horses that cross continents for the Olympic and Paralympic equestrian events. Just like in previous years, all horses competing in this year’s tournament are expected to complete seven days of pre-export quarantine. During this time, they’re tested (through a swab and blood sample) for certain diseases, including equine influenza. Although there’s no evidence that horses can carry and transmit COVID, the animals can spread equine coronavirus (known as ECoV), a highly contagious horse-to-horse virus first identified in the early 2000s.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday. Many return to street encampments when their time in the pallet shelter runs out, Jessica Prosser, homeless services director for the city, said. Then, the city sweeps the encampment again, and they get to come back to the shelter for another 30 days, Prosser explained. This process can repeat multiple times.
