Good morning,
The ISS SSTV event is supposed to last until 11:35 UTC tomorrow morning aside from a school contact from 12:35 UTC until 14:30 UTC today.
However, there is a 252 second firing of the Progress's thrusters scheduled for 12:22 UTC today for an orbit boost, which will cause your orbit predictions to be off a bit.

If I'm reading this complicated page correctly (http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/SSapplications/Post/JavaSSOP/...), these should now be the correct keps for the ISS:
ISS 1 25544U 98067A 16104.53283479 .00016717 00000-0 10270-3 0 9033 2 25544 51.6438 20.5148 0001725 29.1025 331.0223 15.54208672 34925

Can we reasonably assume that the AMSAT Pass Prediction page is appropriately updated? I'm not sure how that works.

The AMSAT Pass Prediction page is based on the same TLE's that appear in nasabare.txt. Elements for ISS are updated daily based on TLE's from the Johnson Space Flight Center. Other elements are updated weekly, with new satellites added as soon as reliable data are available.
