Atlantis and the ISS
Here's a very cool photo of the ISS and Atlantis passing each other last week. In this picture they're about 200 meters about (that's about 650 feet). Be sure to click the link and scroll down to the larger very impressive picture (that's the sun in the background).
Found at Don't Forward.

Recharge your AA Batteries via USB
A UK company called USBcell is selling AA batteries that can be recharged via your computer's USB port. How cool is that? For me it's perfect. For one, I never go anywhere without my laptop so if some of my devices (sound machine, speakers, flashlight, PDA keyboard, sound canceling headphones) need a recharge I'd be all set!
The problem is they are only for sale in the UK and at 12.99 pounds for a pair ($24.70) they are still a little pricey. But I need a pair! They aren't even on e-bay yet...
In the future they plan to have cell phones, cameras, 9v and AAA USB rechargeable devices.
