The submission deadline for Exec Board platforms has been extended to 
Friday, November 13 @ 2359 conference-local (Arizona time).

A couple of stipulations:
-platform submissions will remain open for all positions
-people who submitted prior to the original deadline (ie 11/1) will have 
choice in the campaign speech ordering
-it will be noted who submitted prior or post the original deadline (ie 
11/1)
-if no one submits for the Vice Chair position, then it will be filled 
as a run-off from Chair (ie first place of chair votes gets the chair 
position; second place gets the vice-chair position)

SpaceVision 2009, the US national conference of the Students for the Exploration and Development of Space (SEDS) is currently underway. 

Due to the recession making it difficult for students to attend in person, the conference organizers have decided to stream most of the conference sessions live to the web. 

Tune in live at: http://www.spacevidcast.com/live/ 

Schedule available at: http://www.spacevision.seds.org

Clear skies, 

Joshua V. Nelson
Chairman, SEDS-USA
chair at seds.org
