Sunday Morning Mashup of CBS FACE THE NATION:
BOB CASEY
April 20, 2008
Pennsylvania Senator Bob Casey says that his endorsee, Barack Obama is 'lifting the debate' this election cycle.
"All of these voters that are going to vote on April 22nd can see through a lot of these back and forth exchanges. They want to hear about how these candidates are going to address their lives, their jobs, and this terrible economy and there's been a lot of fighting back and forth. But if this is going to become a contest of who's, you know, which campaign has, has engaged in smear tactics, I think Senator Obama will do well on the positive side of that. I think he has lifted the debate. There are lots of times in this campaign where he could have attacked and finger pointed and he didn't. He lifted the campaign and I think that shows his leadership skills."

In mid-October 2011, NASA scientists working in Antarctica discovered a massive crack across the Pine Island Glacier, a major ice stream that drains the West Antarctic Ice Sheet. Extending for 19 miles (30 kilometers), the crack was 260 feet (80 meters) wide and 195 feet (60 meters) deep. Eventually, the crack will extend all the way across the glacier, and calve a giant iceberg that will cover about 350 square miles (900 square kilometers). This image from the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) instrument on NAS's Terra spacecraft was acquired Nov. 13, 2011, and covers an area of 27 by 32 miles (44 by 52 kilometers), and is located near 74.9 degrees south latitude, 101.1 degrees west longitude.
