P1、Ferguson protests: Another night of chaos, captured live on social media
Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters during another night of violence and unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, on Sunday, the eighth consecutive day of demonstrations following the fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, by Darren Wilson, a white police officer.
After a few nights of relative calm in the tension-filled city, the situation ratcheted up again: tear gas was unleashed on protesters and people in the media; officers in riot gear wielded assault weapons; people in the street hurled Molotov cocktails at police officers. Finally, Gov. Jay Nixon decided local authorities were losing control of the situation, and he ordered in the National Guard.
And, as has been the case since the beginning of the protests, you didn't need television to see what was happening on the ground in Ferguson. On social media, scores of journalists from local and national media outlets as well as area residents captured the chaotic scene as it unfolded.
弗格森抗议：混乱又一夜，社交媒体现场抓拍
于美国密苏里州弗格森镇暴力动乱第二晚的周日，警察向群众发射催泪弹和橡皮弹，这是继白人警官达伦·威尔逊射死无武器的黑人青年迈克尔·布朗后连续第八天的示威游行。
在充斥着紧张情绪的城市稍微平静下来几天之后，局势又开始激化：警方开始向抗议者和媒体投射催泪弹；全副武装的警官挥起攻击性武器；街上人群向警察投掷燃烧弹。最终，州长杰伊尼克松表示当地政府难以控制局势，并向国民警卫队下令。
并且，自从抗议开始至今，你没有必要在电视上关注弗格森当地的事态发展。社交媒体上，来自当地和国家媒体的大批记者以及当地居民拍摄了大量暴乱现场的照片。

The president of the Ghana Medical Association (GMA) says the group plans on Tuesday to brief parliament about the country’s preparations for handling cases of the Ebola virus, which has so far affected four West African countries.
The World Health Organization estimates that the Ebola disease has left over 1,069 dead. The affected countries include Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Nigeria.
Government officials say equipment has been purchased to help with the treatment of Ebola cases. The ministry of health has so far released about $1,657,458 to help control the spread of the virus.
But, Opoku-Adusei expressed concern about the lack of public understanding about the disease.

P4、FM Bishop: Australia, Indonesia to Repair Ties
August 19, 2014 1:29 AM
Australia says it has agreed to repair ties with Indonesia that were damaged last year following accusations of Australian spying.
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said Tuesday that defense, intelligence and border security cooperation will resume under the terms of a new deal.
Indonesia downgraded its relationship with Australia following reports in November that Canberra tapped the phone lines of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, his wife, and other officials.
Relations have slowly improved since then, but Indonesia has been seeking formal reassurances that Australia will not spy on its leaders.
Bishop said she and Prime Minister Tony Abbott will soon travel to Indonesia to sign a code of conduct, the details of which have not been released.
Even before the scandal, Indonesia-Australia relations were strained over Prime Minister Abbott's policy of turning boats of Australia-bound asylum seekers back to Indonesia.
外长毕晓普：澳印重归于好
澳大利亚表示，继去年指控澳洲间谍一事澳印关系破裂后，如今同意与印尼重修友好关系。
外长朱丽叶·毕晓普周二说，两国国防、情报和边境安全合作将在新的协议下继续进行。
去年十一月，继堪培拉窃听总统苏西洛·班邦·尤多约诺，总统妻子以及其他官员电话的报道后，印尼减少了与澳大利亚的联系。
此后两国关系回暖，不过印尼一直要求澳大利亚保证不再暗中监视其领导人。
毕晓普说，她和首相托尼·雅培不久将前往印尼签署一份行为约则，其中的细节还未公布。
即使在谣言散布之前，雅培首相将去澳大利亚避难者的船只遣返印尼的政策已使得两国关系紧张。
