We entered into a most favored nation clause with another doctor who sits on our Board of Directors – the absent stakeholder. We agreed we wouldn't settle any other physician's claim on better terms than we settled his. If we accept anything less than $82,953, we'll be in breach of contract – the hidden constraint.
May I explain that to your opponent?
Once the number on the table made sense to the defendant, they agreed to pay back the insurance carrier the exact sum that had only moments before been a hard impasse. That's because a sense of fairness is as much or more important to people than the precise monetary figure desired.
Calling Your Negotiation Partner's Bluff
We were at the end of a very long day's attempt to resolve a dispute between two partners. Everyone was stuck. No one had any new good ideas and both sides were absolutely convinced they were "right" and their opponent not only wrong, but evil (demonization - you can see this process at work in the comments to the recent guest post on legal careers).
Just as everyone was packing up their briefcases, I asked Partner A what value he would place on the enterprise's inventory so his partner could know what it would cost him to buy out Partner A's interest in the business. Earlier in the day, Partner A had placed a very low value on that inventory because he was the one doing the offering. Now that his partner wanted to purchase his interest, Partner A's valuation skyrocketed
Great, responded Partner B. I'm happy to sell you the entire business for your valuation of the inventory alone.
Partner A sputtered, realizing that he'd walked himself into a box canyon. I helped the parties normalize their relationship and we were able to find a value that lay somewhere between the two numbers as both partners realized it did not advantage either of them to place too high or low a number on their inventory. The case settled shortly thereafter.
Putting Your Money Where Your Mouth Is
I helped several parties' settle a patent infringement lawsuit by exploring each of their assumptions about the other's plans for the future and the chances that those plans would generate the income each party was projecting.
Plaintiffs believed the market would "get really hot" in three years time, allowing the infringer to make a killing on their technology. When I asked the defendant what he thought about Plaintiffs' suspicions, he said he planned to phase the product out of his product line within three years.
I suggested that the defendant agree to a graduated royalty which would require him to pay an unusually high percentage of its sales during the years Plaintiffs were convinced he'd be selling "their" product and at a time when Defendant swore he would not.
This not only puts the party's projections to a reality test, it requires them to bet on their own positions. In this case, the parties were not bluffing and the graduated royalty strategy sealed the deal.
As you can see from these few examples, diagnostic questions are among the most powerful impasse breakers and deal closers around. The beauty part is how easy they are to ask.
Who, what, why, where, when and how.
Go ahead, ask the questions you need to ask to satisfy your curiosity before you break your neck trying to convince your bargaining partner to accept a deal he doesn't understand, is contrary to his hidden interests or damaging to his relationship with an absent stakeholder.
Ask these questions and you'll be among the seven percent of all business people who get a substantially better deal every time they negotiate with the other 93%.
It just doesn't get much better than that.

IRS and Terrorist-Related Information Sharing
GAO-03-50R: Published: Oct 21, 2002. Publicly Released: Nov 20, 2002.
Additional Materials:

(202) 512-5594
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Events preceding and following the attacks of September 11, 2001, spotlighted ineffective information sharing, particularly related to intelligence and law enforcement activities, as a serious weakness. Poor information sharing hinders effectively identifying vulnerabilities and coordinating efforts to detect attacks. GAO monitored the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) efforts to enhance the security of the tax filing process, to study how terrorist-related threat information is shared with IRS. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) uses task forces and electronic means to share terrorist-related threat information with the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA). More specifically, it shares information through its involvement with TIGTA and others in Joint Terrorism Task Forces and through electronic arrangements such as the National Threat Warning System. For its part, TIGTA uses formal communications to disseminate threat information to IRS. TIGTA and IRS officials were satisfied with the FBI's and TIGTA's information-sharing procedures, respectively.

The clothes you wear. The food you eat. The color of your bedroom walls. Where you go and how you get there. The people you hang with. What time you go to bed.
What do these things have in common, you're asking? They're just a few examples of the many hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child. As a kid, you didn't have a say in very much that went on; your parents made decisions about everything from the cereal you ate in the morning to the pajamas you wore at night. And it's a good thing, too — kids need this kind of protection and assistance because they aren't mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But eventually, kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity — one that is separate from your parents'. It's totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; it's what prepares them for adulthood.
But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting. They aren't used to the new you yet — they only know you as the kid who had everything decided for you and didn't mind.
In most families, it's this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. You want to cover your walls with posters; they don't understand why you don't like your kiddie wallpaper anymore. You think it's OK to hang at the mall every day after school; they would rather that you play a sport.
Clashes like these are very common between teens and parents — teens get angry because they feel parents don't respect them and aren't giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they aren't used to not being in control or they disagree with the teens' decisions.
It's easy for feelings to get very hurt when there are conflicts like these. And more complicated issues — like the types of friends you have or your attitudes about sex and partying — can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be intent on protecting you and keeping you safe, no matter how old you are.
The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teen has a right to certain opinions and an identity that may be different from theirs.
It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, concentrate on communicating with your parents as best you can.
Sometimes this can feel impossible — like they just don't see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents, and you may be able to reach compromises that make everyone happy. For example, if you are willing to clean your room in order to stay out an hour later, both you and your parents walk away with a good deal.
Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that, in most cases, they can relate to what you're going through.

Stereo with 980xgl -- max resolution?
I am putting together a few new Linux computers for 3-D scientific visualization. I am considering the NVIDIA Quadro4 980xgl card, but I heard from a colleague that there may be some problems with the Linux driver. His comments:
"As of a couple months ago I could not get the Linux driver for this card to
go beyond 1024x768 with a refresh rate acceptable for stereo viewing
(whereas in Windows I could go to higher resolutions). It seemed to be a
limitation hard-wired into the Linux driver but I'm not sure. For some
people this resolution would be acceptable, for some not..."
Is this an issue that others have noticed? Has this been cured with the 1.0-4496 driver release?
Thanks, Jen
XF86 configuration wrong
The refresh rate problem is probably the result of not having your monitor settings configured properly. There is no difference between refresh rates in stereo and out of stereo, from what I know. The guy probably just needs to edit his the monitor definition in the /etc/X11/XF86Config (or wherever it may be on his system) file. In the section that defines the monitor settings, he should enter the proper horizontal and vertical refresh rate ranges to reflect the values that his monitor can do. The user's manual for the monitor will list these ranges, and once he puts those into the file, X should default to the highest refresh rate possible for whatever resolution he is running.

Monday, July 6, 2015
In PLR 201527010, the Service exercised its discretion to permit the late filing of Form 8939, on which the executor of a decedent who died in 2010 elects out of the federal estate tax, and allocates up to $1.3 million in basis increase to selected assets.
Five PLRs Allow Late QSST/ESBT Elections
Monday, July 6, 2015
In each of five related rulings, PLRs 201527005 through 201527009, the Service granted inadvertent termination relief to a number of S corporations, allowing late elections to treat various trusts as QSSTs or ESBTs.

Monday, July 6, 2015

Monday, July 6, 2015
In PLR 201527011, the Service ruled the settlement of litigation among the trustee and various beneficiaries of a multi-generation trust would not affect the trust's grandfathered GST exempt status.

I spend most of my day smiling
I like to try new things everyday - today it's Match.com. I'm a fellow, and I love my job (almost all the time). I've been in Boston for almost 5 years now, and it's finally starting to feel like home. With my free time, I try to go out with friends and travel as much as possible. I also try to stay healthy by going to gym and catching up on sleep :) I love my family. We're very close. Although they can drive me a crazy a lot of the time, I wouldn't have it any other way. My ideal match is someone who will make me laugh, teach me new things, and keep me on my toes. I hope to find someone who will want to try new things with me and have just as much fun going to a new bar or staying in, watching a movie on the couch. I think as long as you're laughing and having fun - everything always ends up ok.

I love dancing, so like all music that you can dance to including hip hop, R&B, and pop music. My guilty pleasure is reality TV. My food has to have lots of flavor regardless of where it's from - I'm not afraid of spicy.
If the weather is nice, my favorite thing to do is go to the beach. I also like to go out with friends, trying new restaurants, going to museums and galleries, seeing movies or shows, or trying something new.

Raw zucchini doesn't have a ton of flavor, but its texture is really delicate, so it's perfect for this salad.
Yield: Serves 4
- 2 zucchini, rinsed and ends trimmed
- 4 ounces smoked salmon
- 1 bunch radishes, rinsed, tops and tails trimmed, and sliced as thinly as possible
- Small handful dill fronds
For the dressing:
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- Juice of 2 lemons
- 1 small shallot, minced
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 15 to 20 grinds fresh black pepper
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped dill fronds
Use a peeler to shave the zucchini lengthwise on each side until you start to hit the seedy middle part.
Lay a couple of pieces of smoked salmon in the middle of a plate. Top the salmon layer with a heap of shaved zucchini, radish slices, and dill fronds.
Whisk the dressing ingredients together until smooth. Drizzle the dressing over the top of each salad.

very good food, we did not wait much. pleasant ambiance, but unfortunately next to a busy road. the waitress was nice, but very "silent". price-quality ratio is excellent. All in all I recommend to visit it when you're nearby.
We been here in 7 person and we eat pizza and salat.All food is very good,the local is very clean and good price.The pizzaiolo is a funy guy😜
I was more than once...eating meat, pizzas, pancakes. I coud not say what is better..my recommendation is to taste everthing. Best food in Umag..lots of space to be with small children and nice staff..:)))
Well, i'd like to tell all of you how great the pasta ai frutti di mare was, but the fact that we waited an hour for it (no exaggeration here) made it irrelevant. If you are hugry and not extremely patient, go find an other restaurant! :(
Dear Mr. Pal,
We are very sorry that we left a negative impression on you. With our apologies, but I noted that your visit was 15.8, day of the feast of the Assumption, at dinner time, where, as you yourself have seen, all of our tables were occupied. I would agree with you regarding the "sloooow service" if it were...
Cause I was sleeping in the room above pizza place I was there more times. The staff is friendly but sometimes maybe a little bit slow.
Pizza is great, they use mozzarela instead of regural cheese.
I tried several pasta dishes they were ok.
You can also rent rooms with breakfast. Rooms are nice, clean, with tv and wi fi...
Excellent gnocchi verde and pancakes Eros. The best choice!!!
We had a selection of four different kind of pizzas. They were all excellent.
Thin crust cooked to perfection.
Service great, and a good location.
Cute little pizza place with terrace dining for outdoor pleasure.
Return? Yes!
Recommend! Yes.
The pizza we had was really great, and what is also important that the service is excellent and polite, not pushy...We are looking foraward to come back to Luna soon...
We went here very hungry with not high expectations.
The prices were cheap and the location was great so we decided to try it.
The food was terrible. Got a margarita pizza which seemed like it was with a fake tomato sauce.
The water however, tasted great. I would avoid it and spend a little extra on a real Istrian...
we came here on the way to Umag by the case and it was a great choice! Good that there is available kids menu which children liked very much! The only minus is that menus in Russian and English are made with funny mistakes, but this doesn't influence on the taste :)

Mubadala is to focus on propulsion as part of a revamp of the Abu Dhabi investment group's maintenance, repair and overhaul activities, that will see it build a new engine shop for the General Electric GEnx and Rolls-Royce Trent XWB in Al Ain
Although airframe and component work will remain part of the portfolio of its two main commercial MRO brands – Abu Dhabi Aircraft Technologies and Zurich-based SR Technics – "engine MRO will be for the next five years the core of what we do from an MRO point of view," says Homaid Al Shemmari, chief executive of Mubadala's aerospace and engineering services division.
Al Shemmari says a previous emphasis on integrating the two MRO units was being stepped back with ADAT and SR Technics now largely concentrating on their own markets – the Middle East and Asia in the case of ADAT, and Europe, Russia and North America for SR Technics. Both businesses will now be run by their own chief executives rather than under a joint management. "We are moving back to a regional management play," says Al Shemmari.
SR Technics will also concentrate on "high-end" component repair. "Their skills in that area are very advanced," he says. "Over time, however, we will try to transfer some of that competence to the Middle East." ADAT will also continue its competence in existing engine programmes, including the IAE V2500 that powers the Airbus A320 family and the A330's Trent 700.
Narrowbody airframe work in Europe will increasingly use SR Technics' Malta facility, where labour costs are much lower than Switzerland, says Al Shemmari. ADAT's complex at Abu Dhabi International, which has a purpose-built three-bay Airbus A380 hangar, will try to secure more airframe work from operators of the superjumbo, which will shortly include UAE flag-carier Etihad.
Mubadala's strategy is to create an Abu Dhabi aerospace industry, based on aerostructures and aero-engine parts manufacturing, MRO and component leasing, as well as providing careers for Emirati citizens. At November's Dubai air show, Mubadala said it secured $11.8 billion worth of work packages from Airbus, Boeing, GE and Rolls-Royce, as well as the United Arab Emirates armed forces.
Its aerostructures subsidiary Strata in Al Ain is a tier one supplier to Airbus, manufacturing composite flap track fairings for the A330 and A380, as well as wing spoilers and ailerons for the A330.
Mubadala has also worked with fellow Abu Dhabi government company Tawazun Precision Industries on the manufacture of metalic components for the A320 family and A330.

This video shows some of the most dramatic fluctuations to our cryosphere in recent years, using visuals created with a variety of satellite-based data.
This video is part two of a seven-part National Academies series, Climate Change: Lines of Evidence. The video outlines, with the use of recent research and historical data, how we know that the Earth is warming.
This web page from the National Snow and Ice Data Center contains two related visualizations. The first visualization gives an estimate of the percent contribution to sea level change since the 1990s from three contributors - small glaciers and ice caps, the Greenland Ice Sheet and the Antarctic Ice Sheet. The second visualization shows the cumulative contribution to sea level from small glaciers and ice caps plotted with the annual global surface air temperature anomaly.
This is an interactive graph that involves records of ice cover in two Wisconsin lakes - Lake Mendota and Lake Monona - from 1855-2010.
In this activity, students learn about sea ice extent in both polar regions (Arctic and Antarctic). They start out by forming a hypothesis on the variability of sea ice, testing the hypothesis by graphing real data from a recent 3-year period to learn about seasonal variations and over a 25-year period to learn about longer-term trends, and finish with a discussion of their results and predictions.
In this activity students use NASA satellite data to study changes in temperature and snow-ice coverage in the South Beaufort Sea, Alaska. They will then correlate the data with USGS ground tracking of polar bears and relate their findings to global change, sea ice changes, and polar bear migration and survival.
This video examines the thawing of permafrost due to changes in climate and shows examples of the impacts that warming temperatures have on permafrost in the Arctic, including the release of the greenhouse gas methane. Dramatic results are shown, including sink holes forming on the landscape and beneath buildings, roads, and other infrastructure, causing some communities to relocate.
This NBC Learn video features climate scientists doing their research on Mt. Kilimanjaro to study the climate of the past. The scientists put the recently observed changes on the glacier into perspective by comparing past climate fluctuations, stressing that the current observed rate of change is unprecedented.
This video, along with a background essay, focuses on impacts of climate change on the lives of Native Alaskans around Barrow, Alaska. Specific changes include the timing of the changes in the formation and breakout of sea ice and the impacts on subsistence living.
The annual Report Card provides clear, concise scientific information on the state of the Arctic region, organized into 5 sections: Atmosphere, Sea Ice & Ocean, Marine Ecosystems, Terrestrial Ecosystems, and Hydrology & Terrestrial Cryosphere. This edition was prepared by an international team of 121 scientists from 14 different countries. Independent peer-review of the 2012 Report Card was organized by the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme of the Arctic Council.

Behind the scorching stick of Patrick Marleau, the San Jose Sharks are one win away from their best start in franchise history. Standing in the way are the Vancouver Canucks, a team they've had trouble with over the past two seasons. The Sharks will try to remain one of the league's three unbeatens Sunday when they host the Canucks, who have 10 of the last 13 meetings including playoffs. San Jose (4-0-0) has matched its start from 2008-09, when it went on to claim the Presidents' Trophy. Chicago and New Jersey, both also in action Sunday, are the only other clubs without a loss. Marleau has been a huge reason for the success, outscoring the Sharks' opponents on his own 8-7. He had two more goals Saturday in a 4-0 win against Colorado to join Ottawa's Cy Denneny in 1917-18 as the only other player to open a season with four straight multigoal games. The franchise's all-time leader in goals, Marleau had never totaled more than three in his first four games of a season. He also has...

""Many years ago, our company founder, Al Conklin, sold a new twin-engine business aircraft to a very successful entrepreneur.
