Burkina Faso's president Blaise Compaore has been forced out by mass demonstrations7. But it's not clear who has replaced him. The Armed Force's Chief General Honore Traore announced he was taking over as head of state. But many protesters see him as too close to the ousted9 president. From Ouagadougou, here is Lilia Drawvy.

“After 27 years at the helm, it's a three days of angry protests for the land of upright men to oust8 their leader. Protesters have moved from Nation Square to the headquarters of the army after the announcements of the ousting10 of President Blaise Compaore. To lead the transition, they are asking that someone else steps in. So after winning this battle for democracy, people here in Burkina Faso are already thinking of the next step to bring real change in the country.”

加拿大法官判处一男子75年刑期，原因是他曾枪击三名加拿大骑警，并造成另外两名骑警受伤。Lee Carter从多伦多发回报道。
“As he sentenced Justin Bourque, the judge called his crime one of the worst in the history of Canada. It was also one of the heaviest sentences in the country's modern legal history. In addition to serving 75 years, Mr. Bourque had no chance of parole. It was on the 4th of June that Justin Bourque went on his shooting rampage in the normally quiet New Brunswick City of Monkton during which he opened fire on the officers. The city was locked down during the 28-hour manhunt. He pleaded guilty to the charges and appeared unrepentant in police interview, but later in court apologized to the victims' families.”

A judge in the American state of Maine has ruled that a nurse who returned from treating Ebola patients in Sierra Leon can now leave home and go to public places.

She will still have to be actively19 monitored by public health officials.
