| Golf Tournament for All Abilities
Play at one of the Bay
Area's prized golf resources — the Presidio Golf Course. It's in great shape,
under management by Arnold Palmer Golf Resorts. They're giving the PCNC a
tournament for a special rate (golf carts included).
Limited to 20 players, so please help by reserving with payment as soon as
possible. If you send your check prior to July 15th, you will automatically be
entered into a drawing for two complimentary rounds of golf at The Presidio,
announced at the conclusion of the event!
No matter what your ability, this will be a great day of golf. The Presidio is
a magnificent layout that has stood for over 100 years — a beautiful course with
beautiful views of San Francisco. You won't be disappointed.

| A Beautiful Mind: The Life of Mathematical Genius and Nobel
Laureate John Nash
Good books,
good conversations, good company...what else can be better? Join
the revival of the Princeton Book Club, starting this August. And
the first book we are reading/discussing will be, appropriately,
A Beautiful Mind: The Life of Mathematical Genius and Nobel Laureate
John Nash, by Sylvia Nasar.
Tales of famously eccentric Princetonians abound, but none with
a personal story as moving and troubled as John Nash, one of the
most brilliant and haunted mathematicians of his generation. His
Princeton PhD dissertation on “The Theory of Games and Economic
Behavior” became one of the major breakthroughs in economic theory
in the second half of the twentieth century and eventually won him
a Nobel Laurate 45 years after the fact — a delay cause primarily
by his illness, severe schizophrenia. As one critic puts it, his
is “a story about the mystery of the human mind, in three acts:
genius, madness, reawkening.” The novel is as much about surviving
as finding one’s genius and raises a host of powerful questions
about what it means to live and to discover one’s “life work.”
Read the book and join us for tea and dialogue on at the home of
Anne Cheng Kopf, Associate Professor of English and American Literature
at UC Berkeley. (Don’t worry! There will be no lectures — just good,
fun conversations among friends!)
Directions:
From SFO, take 101 South.
From south bay, take 101 North.
From either 101 S or 101 N:
Take the Broadway Exit for Burlingame. Follow the signs for Broadway.
At the second light, take a LEFT on Carolan. At the first STOP sign,
take a RIGHT on Oak Grove. Stay in the right lane; cross the train
tracks; go across California Street. After crossing California,
three blocks later, take a RIGHT on Farringdon Lane. #749 is on
the left hand side of the street, 6 houses from the end of the block.

| Business 109: Selling Out
Assuming you have
already attended Business 102 through 109, you may now be ready to sell your
business at a considerable profit. Alternately, you may be at the point of
buying or merging with another company. This session will cover several aspects
of buying and selling businesses: identifying possible deals, assessing the
value of companies, choosing a transaction structure, and negotiating and
drafting transaction terms.
