Russian scientists claim to have discovered the wreck of an alien device at the site of an unexplained explosion in Siberia almost a hundred years ago, the Interfax news agency reported late Wednesday. The scientists, who belong to the Tunguska space phenomenon public state fund, said they found the remains of an extra-terrestrial device that allegedly crashed near the Tunguska river in Siberia in 1908. They also claim to have discovered a 50-kilogram (110-pound) rock which they have sent to the Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk for analysis.
Wow, guess you don't see many of those in Siberia
The Tunguska blast, in a desolate part of Siberia, remains one of the 20th century's biggest scientific mysteries. On June 30, 1908, what is widely believed to be a meteorite exploded a few kilometers above the Tunguska river, in a blast that was felt hundreds of kilometers (miles) away and devastated over 2,000 square kilometers of Siberian forest. But the exact nature of the body that exploded and its origin remain a mystery which has spurred countless theories and controversies.
And sold a lot of books to the tin-foil crowd.

Scrappleface: San Francisco Mayor Annuls State Supreme Court
(2004-08-12) -- Just hours after the California Supreme Court annulled 4,000 homosexual marriage licenses granted earlier this year by the City of San Francisco, Mayor Gavin Newsom annulled the state supreme court.
"I find the court to be invalid," said Mr. Newsom, "I'm taking this action on the same principle under which I overruled existing law, and the so-called will of the people, by granting homosexual marriage licenses. History will vindicate me as the man who understood that the law is what I make it."
The mayor has not yet declared martial law but said "all options remain on the table."

I work two blocks and passed by at lunch time. They were weeping big crocodile tears over at the Supreme Court building (no kidding). I wonder what went RIGHT with the court? I would have thought they would have approved of the Gay marriage thing. Gay Lobby â 0, People of California â 1.
