What is NASA TARGETING for Impact by the 6 1/2-ton Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS)?

UN is still best answer.

You assume that they can control it... no no no.

Seems there is a silent stalker in the neighborhood, whose approach is tweaking all our satelites.

It is likely due to a combination of magnetic and gravitational forces.

No, they are as helpless as little baby ducklings.

But if they really wanted to do something about they could have knocked them down with anti-satelite missiles.

It's not about what they are targeting, it's about why they aren't telling us. This thing is going to spread destruction over several hundred miles. They say 500. 500 miles could cover a VERY large section of the Eastern Seaboard. So my guess, Eastern Seaboard. oh and BTW the odds they gave, 1 in 3200 of being hit. That means around 2.8 million out of the 7 Billion on the planet. Hmmmmmm?

Why not Arcore?

No it doesn't, you are confused. The odds are 1 in 3,200 that ANYONE will be hit with something. It does NOT mean 2.8 million people will be hit. Come on man, it's the size of a schoolbus, if you broke it into 2.8 million pieces then each piece would be the size of a grain of sand.
