It's taken more than year for the ammonia tank to slowly slip down toward Earth due to atmospheric drag
Though I'm sure NASA would have thought of this, I wonder just how energy-intensive it would have been to have jettisoned this away from us.
For example, would a gas tank (think scuba gear) strapped to the side of this make any appreciable difference? (Granted, with a little more guidance / sophistication.) And with a beacon attached, we could return in x years and collect it for recycling.

I'd be curious to hear what the justification is for searching laptops.
If nothing else, it allows people to get used to having laptops searched. That way, it will be less outrageous if (when) it is ever expanded in the future.
Yeah, what's the story with executive remuneration? It's ridiculous.
Executive remuneration is increasing at a far quicker pace than average weekly earnings.
It's all good and well to give executives incentives that are linked to corporate performance, but it pisses me off to no end when they get those bonuses ANYWAY even when they haven't met their targets.
I DON'T believe this is just free-market at work... it boils down to the fact that they set their own pay. (Crikey, let me set my own pay !!)
At least shareholders are increasingly voting-down executive pay rises at annual shareholder meetings. While these vote-downs are non binding -- boards can ignore them -- they sure send a strong signal.
If you feel that not enough is being done to eradicate prostate cancer, then instead of venting anger and frustration, how about doing something about it? (As many women have for breast cancer.)
There are plenty of worthwhile organisations that would love to borrow your techy skills (e.g. for a couple of hours a week).

Your proposal is acceptable.
I have a small encryption app installed on my Windows Mobile device that encrypts files with a password.
I believe it uses 256 bit encryption. I'd like to think it's secure.
What are people's thoughts on these apps?
I'm concerned that this little feature could be broadly used and not publicised.
For example, what about the hidden codes used by some printers?
I'm not so sure it's to protect the children.
Perhaps it's more to protect us from terrorists?

I checked it elsewhere beforehand to confirm it was free, did a WHOIS with NSI and it took 25 seconds (!!) for the buggers to grab it.

I'd hate for the following to occur, but I can see it happening:
... browser indicates it is "thinking"
(1) perform an operation in a large Excel file
(2) file is being processed
(3) browser stops "thinking" on a blank page
(4) click on "Back" button, and I'm shown a time-out or log-in page
Grrrrrr !!
My preciousss !!!
Yes, inconceivable !!
