Speakers:

We have allotted 20 minutes for each talk, so plan to speak for about 10-15 minutes, with a few minutes for questions at the end. All presentations will be in the Amphitheater. There will be a table by the speaker's podium with two laptops:

• a PC running Windows XP with MS Office 2007, Acrobat v.9. and OpenOffice v.3.1
• a Mac OS v10.5.8 with MS Office 2008, Acrobat v9.0, OpenOffice v3.1,and iWorks '09 (KeyNote v 5.0.2))

All Calibration Review speakers have a Chandra's First Decade of Discovery poster space available for a poster version of their talk.

Posters:

Posters should be put up after 1 PM in the Cityview Ballroom. Prior to the afternoon coffee break, there will be a poster haiku session. Poster presenters should prepare a 1 minute / 1 slide blurb. We will not have an overhead projector available, so your slide should be an electronic one (PDF, PowerPoint, Keynote), not a transparency.
