This is the horrific moment an open top double-decker bus rolled over the side of a hill killing nine people and injuring dozens more.

DRAMA AT TOUR DE FRANCE: Cycling's most popular rider, Peter Sagan, kicked off race after crash; sport's greatest sprinter, Mark Cavendish, forced to withdraw

 Snapshot_20170704_112537
Peter Sagan on Tuesday was kicked out of the Tour de France after he was involved in a nasty crash that sent sprint rival Mark Cavendish flying into a crowd barrier and onto the ground at high speed.
It happened on the race's fourth stage in the finish town of Vittel, after a quiet day of racing that eventually saw the sprinters' teams setting up their fast men for the finale.
As the leaders raced for the line at speeds approaching 40 mph, Cavendish tried to come around Sagan but appeared to be knocked into the barriers and onto the ground. Cavendish was taken to the hospital for X-rays.
You can watch the crash in the video clips below:
"We've decided to disqualify Peter Sagan from the Tour de France 2017 as he endangered some of his colleagues seriously in the final metres of the sprint which happened in Vittel," said the president of the race commission, Philippe Marien.
"We will apply article 12.104 of the rules of the UCI ... in which case commissaires (the race jury) can decide to enforce a judgment to disqualify a rider."

A Missouri man has been charged with statutory sodomy of a one-year-old, but not before he received a beating from the infant’s father.
Jayson Newlun, a 26-year-old family friend who was babysitting for friends, was caught inappropriately touching the child while pleasuring himself after being left alone with the baby for just 10 to 15 minutes, according to local media.
Court documents show that the mother and father had left Mr Newlun alone with their daughter while they went to the store. After realising that they had forgotten their WIC folder — which contains vouchers to assist low income families pay for food for children — they returned home.
Once they returned, the mother noticed that Mr Newlun wasn’t on the couch where he had been when they left, and that her infant daughter’s bedroom door was open.

"Here's a little naked fact to ponder while Celine Dion changes looks between shows: for the past five years she has worn haute couture near exclusively for her own performances (in Las Vegas and on her current "mini-tour" of Europe). She performs a minimum two hours a night, five or six nights a week, dancing and curtseying and generally gesticulating sans abandon, in handmade, hand-beaded delicacies designed solely to walk a catwalk or a carpet (and often with handlers). For Celine's orders, the houses send teams to Nevada for typically three fittings, before the garments are ultimately finished in her local, private atelier. Armani Prive, Schiaparelli, Giambattista Valli, Versace...only a partial list. Everyone,

North Korea claims its has successfully tested a missile that can hit anywhere on Earth

North Korea Missile test claims ICBM
North Korea claims that it has launched its first ever intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), and now has the power to deliver a nuclear-capable strike on any location on the planet.
State officials announced the launch early Tuesday morning after South Korea had warned that the test appeared more advanced than usual. The missile's trajectory had an unusually steep angle, suggesting it could travel far further than previous tests.
The launch, which North Korea's state media said was ordered and supervised by leader Kim Jong Un, sent the rocket 933km (580 miles), with a flight time of 39 minutes. It reached an altitude of 2,802 km, Reuters said.
Officials from South Korea, Japan, and the US said the missile had landed in the sea near the coast of Japan after being launched near an airfield in Panghyon, about 100km (60 miles) north west of North Korea's capital, Pyongyang.

In the heart of Hong Kong, a former British colony, sits an unmistakable symbol of the city&#39;s Chinese rule, now in its 18th year: The barracks of the People&#39;s Liberation Army (PLA).

For years after it took control of Hong Kong from Britain, China kept its military in the city on a low profile.
Its presence was largely symbolic and People's Liberation Army troops were rarely seen outside their main barracks in Hong Kong's Central district or other smaller facilities across the territory.
