Expect big celebrations in New York City for Pride Weekend

Celebrations, organized and not, have been taking place across the country Friday following the Supreme Court's landmark ruling that said same-sex marriage is a legal right. Look for a big party in the Big Apple, which has been celebrating Pride Week. Marchers are scheduled to trek down Fifth Avenue on Sunday, led by gay British actors Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi. (They will be joined as grand marshals by Kasha Jacqueline Nabagesera, a Ugandan activist, and artist J. Christopher Neal.) "This weekend's events will be even more memorable as we take to the streets of Manhattan and Pier 26 for NYC LGBT Pride," organizers said in a statement. "We look forward to welcoming New Yorkers and visitors from across the globe for a Pride that will go down in the history books." For those who want to celebrate and can't make it to New York, here's a round up of Pride celebrations around the country.

1 N.Y. fugitive still on the run after officer kills accomplice

Authorities are hunting for escaped killer David Sweat after a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agent shot and killed his accomplice, Richard Matt, Friday. Sweat has not been sighted since his escape, police say, but evidence found a week ago indicated he was with Matt in a cabin that had been burglarized. Matt was shot in a wooded area about 30 miles west of the Clinton Correctional Facility from which the two men escaped. A 20-gauge shotgun was found on him, though he did not fire it at officers, officials said. Matt was serving a 25-years-to-life sentence for the 1997 kidnapping, torture and hacksaw dismemberment of his boss.

SpaceX capsule to deliver new parking spot for space station

SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket will take aim toward the International Space Station this weekend to deliver some much-needed supplies. Liftoff is scheduled for 10:21 a.m. ET Sunday, weather permitting. Minutes after liftoff, SpaceX will make another attempt to land a discarded first-stage booster from the Falcon 9 on a barge in the Atlantic. NASA said the Dragon spacecraft will carry more than 4,000 lbs. of supplies destined for the ISS. Besides food and experiments, the Dragon ordered up by NASA holds a new docking port, or parking place, for future commercial crew capsules. Speaking of the ISS, American Scott Kelly is aboard and has been tweeting some awe-inspiring images.
