LOL I honestly forgot what it looked like now, so I can't tell you. It seems like it was a little bit different. 
So now we have 3 station IDs?

Saw a completely different Station ID at 1:58 PM EDT. There were Pine Trees on either side, a snow-trickled mountain in the background, and what looked like wheat(?) appearing at the bottom of the screen as the camera panned down.

Demerit Levels at my school:
1-6 Demerits: No Penalty
6-12 Demerits: D-Hall (detention)
12-24 Demerits: Saturday D-Hall with Student/Principal Conference
24-36 Demerits: Parent/Principal Conference
36-48 Demerits: In-School Suspension
48+ Demerits: TBD by Principal
It's basically a lessee of a write-up...but, at my school you can get up to 13 of them at a time. 6 of your demerits get wiped away at the end of the 9 weeks.

RE-ENTRY CONFIRMED
According to a NASA spokesman, Air Force space-tracking specialists report UARS entered the atmosphere over the Pacific Ocean. However, the precise time and locale aren't yet known.

Trammell at :55
After the commercial break, there was a black screen and you could hear Crystal say "It's still on MAX". Trammell then kicked in.

General Discussion / Space Junk Headed For Earth - Impact Imminent
« on: September 19, 2011, 08:37:12 PM »
This artist's conceptual image provided by NASA shows the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite, or UARS.
It looks like a giant piece of biscotti covered with gold foil and pipe cleaners. But it's really a decommissioned weather satellite the size of a bus that NASA says will probably fall to Earth by Friday, oh, give or take a day.
Most of the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (or UARS) will burn up as the spacecraft plunges into the lower atmosphere, but some pieces may survive and strike the ground nearly anywhere between 57 north latitude and 57 south latitude. That's pretty much anywhere on the continents and oceans. Antarctica appears to be safe.
In its risk assessment, NASA says the possibility of somebody getting hit by something is small, but it estimates 26 "potentially hazardous objects" from the UARS may survive the flaming return, and not all of them will be lightweight.
Washington Post blogger Joel Achebloch says this is the biggest piece of space debris to come back to earth in 30 years and it should create a big light show. If only they knew where to look. This week, NASA will start offering daily briefings on the satellite's position.
The bloggers at Space.com remind everyone that most of the Earth is covered with water, so chances are greater that space debris will plunge into an ocean. It's hard to predict where and when, because the UARS's orbit is falling a lot faster than people expected. Solar activity is blamed. This warms up the atmosphere and increases drag on the satellite, cutting its flight shorter.
NASA says the UARS blasted into space in 1991 aboard the space shuttle Discovery. It aided scientists studying the Earth's ozone layer, and other aspects of the planet's upper atmosphere. (HT: Bill Chappell)
