<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I hope those of you living at the East coast haven't been harmed by
hurricane Sandy. It makes me stunned to see the vastness of this catastrophe
even more since I've visited DC and New York just before the Toronto meeting.
Hopefully all being affected can return to normal life very soon.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Looking ahead to the coming SCI activities I'd like to ask for nomination
of one of our NCA's as future SCI member since Carlos Aguirre - so far SCI
member - has left the council. Perhaps the three NCA's (Jennifer, Thomas and
Lanre) could seek out among themselves the representation and let us know
about.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Some of the upcoming SCI activities are:</DIV>
<DIV>- election of chair and vice chair</DIV>
<DIV>- Working Group survey</DIV>
<DIV>- potential revision of the council chair election process</DIV>
