Are you making any charitable contributions? Make a gift of stock instead of cash. You can donate highly appreciated stock to most nonprofits (at least those large/sophisticated enough to have brokerage accts). This avoids the cap gains, gets you the charitable deduction, and helps out your favorite cause.
LSU Foundation will be happy to handle your stock gift.
