Sunday Morning Mashup of FOX NEWS SUNDAY:
Howard Wolfson
June 1, 2008
Clinton Strategist, Howard Wolfson, suggests what The Remaining Superdelegates should consider before making their endorsements....
"We do have these important contests today and on Tuesday. We expect a lot of voters to come out. We hope to do well, especially today. And we're going to continue to make the argument to Superdelegates. We're going to argue, 'We've won the popular vote. More people have voted for Senator Clinton than Senator Obama. More people have voted for Senator Clinton in these primaries than anyone in the history of primaries.' That's an important metric that Superdelegates ought to be looking at."

Sunday Morning Mashup of NBC MEET THE PRESS:
Scott McClellan
June 1, 2008
Former Press Secretary, Scott McClellan reflects on the conflict between loyalties....
"I tell you, I continue to have a lot of affection for the president. As I say, this was a struggle to write. These were not easy words to write, but I have a responsibility to the American people. I've had a career in public service, this book is an extension of my career. I was raised on the values of speaking up and making a positive difference. I had a very political family that believed in the importance of public service and that was taught to me at an early age. And now this is my time to share my experiences with the American people. And I think others should come forward and share their candid insights about what they learned and what they lived and what they learned from it.

Sunday Morning Mashup of NBC MEET THE PRESS:
Harold Ickes
June 1, 2008
Clinton supporter, Harold Ickes was asked if he was pleased with the Rules and Bylaws Committee's negotiation of the original Obama Michigan Proposal down to the final compromise....
"Well, the 50/50 would have hijacked 9 delegates. It would have taken 9 delegates from Hillary and at one point I said 'Why not? Why stop there? Just take them all.' There's no basis, in any reasonable way, there's no basis for taking any delegates from her. Yesterday's resolution took 4 delegates from her. It violates a fundamental precept of our delegate selection rule which is Fair Reflection."

Sunday Morning Mashup of ABC THIS WEEK:
Terry McAuliffe
June 1, 2008
Clinton's Terry McAuliffe, asserts that the
Rules and Bylaws Committee overturned the will of the Michigan voters...
"They did not apply the rules yesterday. What they did is they took all the uncommitted, and they actually ran on the ballot as uncommitted, and they have to go to the convention as uncommitted, and they gave all of those to Senator Obama. And then they took four votes that Hillary Clinton had won, four delegates, and they also gave those to Senator Obama. I have never in the history, and I've been involved in this party for 30 years, and I was the last chairman of this great party, I have never seen a party take votes from someone who earned them, and that is our complaint coming out of yesterday."

This is a composite image of NGC 1068, one of the nearest and brightest galaxies containing a rapidly growing supermassive black hole. The X-ray images and spectra obtained using Chandra's High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer show that a strong wind is being driven away from the center of NGC 1068 at a rate of about a million miles per hour. This wind is likely generated as surrounding gas is accelerated and heated as it swirls toward the black hole. A portion of the gas is pulled into the black hole, but some of it is blown away. High energy X-rays produced by the gas near the black hole heat the ouflowing gas, causing it to glow at lower X-ray energies. X-ray data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory are shown in red, optical data from the Hubble Space Telescope in green and radio data from the Very Large Array in blue. The spiral structure of NGC 1068 is shown by the X-ray and optical data, and a jet powered by the central supermassive black hole is shown by the radio data. This Chandra study is much deeper than previous X-ray observations. Using this data, researchers believe that each year several times the mass of our sun is being deposited out to large distances, about 3,000 light years from the black hole. The wind likely carries enough energy to heat the surrounding gas and suppress extra star formation. These results help explain how a supermassive black hole can alter the evolution of its host galaxy. It has long been suspected that material blown away from a black hole can affect its environment, but a key question has been whether such "black hole blowback" typically delivers enough power to have a significant impact. NGC 1068 is located about 50 million light years from Earth and contains a supermassive black hole about twice as massive as the one in the middle of the Milky Way Galaxy.
