OSCAR PISTORIUS CONVICTED OF MANSLAUGHTER

Popular South African Olympic sprinter, Oscar Pistorius was convicted of manslaughter. He was acquitted of murdering his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp, shot on Valentine's Day in 2013. The Paralympian maintained that he believed an intruder had entered his home.

Judge Thokozile Masipa said Pistorius had acted "too hastily" and had used "excessive force" by taking four shots through the door of the bathroom, adding that a "reasonable" person would not have acted in such a manner.

ANOTHER AMERICAN CONTRACTS EBOLA

A doctor working for the missionary group SIM has contracted the Ebola virus while working in a hospital in Liberia.

The doctor was treating pregnant women at the maternity ward of ELWA hospital in Monrovia, Liberia. It is unclear how he contracted the virus as he was not treating patients in the hospital's Ebola isolation facility.

"My heart was deeply saddened, but my faith was not shaken, when I learned another of our missionary doctors contracted Ebola," SIM president Bruce Johnson said in a statement.

SIM is the same missionary group that Nancy Writebol had been working for when she contracted Ebola in July. Writebol and fellow American Ebola survivor Dr. Kent Brantly, who worked for the aid group Samaritan's Purse, were evacuated from Liberia to Emory University Hospital in Atlanta for treatment and declared virus-free. Writebol was discharged on August 19 and Brantly went home two days later.

There are fears that this incident could discourage other charity groups that provide non-ebola support from coming to these countries. Any further reduction of medical support would be disastrous.

TRACY MORGAN RECOVERING FROM CRASH

Tracy Morgan has not lost his trademark smile, but his road to recovery remains a long and difficult process. He is really having a tough time," his lawyer Benedict Morelli states.

Since the accident in June involving six vehicles, which left Morgan in critical condition and ended the life of his friend comedian James "Jimmy Mack" McNair, 62 - the 30 Rock star, 45, has been struggling with recovery.

Though Morgan has been spotted using a walker, he relies on a wheelchair and it may be months before he can fully walk again. He suffered traumatic brain injuries, a broken leg and several fractures to his face. He is currently undergoing at-home therapy following his release from a rehabilitation facility in mid-July.

"He is making incremental progress," says his lawyer, "but they'll have to wait another month before they assess him cognitively."

HAPPY NEW MONTH

#HappyNewMonth to you all...Remember all your dreams can come true if you have the courage to pursue them.
