Puzzle 361 (Sus-Shikaku)

This puzzle is a Sus-Shikaku, a variant invented (?) by Prasanna Seshadri for last year's Puzzle Ramayan contest.  Apparently, this clue pattern was quite similar to one of the grids on the actual contest.  Regardless, this one is pretty tough.

Rules: Standard Shikaku rules, with a twist.  Divide the grid into regions so that each region contains one circle.  Regions containing black circles are still rectangular, but regions containing white circles are not rectangular.  Numbers still indicate the area of the region contained in the clue.
