Tired of logging in again and again to a Drupal site that keeps kicking you out? You can modify session length, i.e. the length of time that a logged-in session stays logged in, via the ini_set('session.cookie_lifetime'... line in the site's settings.php file. See details in Forum Finds: Modify length of user login sessions.

Re: Working with Blocks
You could, of course, apply some per-page CSS formatting to a given block, if you wanted to, but I don't think that's what you're looking for. (Nice for changing a block's text size on a given page; not useful for swapping two blocks' positions on that page.)
As for controlling a block's region on a per-page basis, the only hack I know of is a crude one indeed: create multiple instances of the block (where possible), and have Version 1 appear in the right sidebar on the front page, Version 2 appear in the left sidebar on your contact page, etc. But that's certainly inelegant, and by forcing you to duplicate content for presentation purposes, is a punch in the gut to the praiseworthy CMS ideal of "separate content from presentation". : (
