You know that first week of class is going to be worthless anyway.  If you're teaching, get someone else to cover for you, re-direct your email to /dev/null, hop on a plane, and straighten things out afterwards :)

If you're generally busy, everything's a conflict. hmmm sorry 2013 is no good for me, but I'll *retire* in 2045
