The legends of Valentine's Day-A A +A
Monday, February 13, 2012
EVERY February 14, around the country and around the world, candies, flowers and gifts are exchanged between loved ones all in the name of St. Valentine.
But who is this mysterious saint, and where did these traditions come from? Find out about the history of this centuries - old holiday, from ancient Roman rituals to the customs of Victorian England.
The legend of St. Valentine
Historians like the Socrates Scholasticus, Zosimus and Ammianus Marcellinus claimed the history of Valentine's Day and the story of its patron saint is shrouded in mystery. We do know February has long been celebrated as a month of romance, and that St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition.
But who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient rite?
The Catholic Church recognizes at least three different saints named Valentine or Valentinus, all of whom were martyred.
One legend contends Valentine was a priest who served during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men.
Valentine, realizing the injustice of the decree, defied Claudius and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered he be put to death.
Other stories suggest Valentine may have been killed for attempting to help Christians escape harsh Roman prisons, where they were often beaten and tortured. O
ne legend states the imprisoned Valentine actually sent the first "valentine" greeting himself after he fell in love with a young girl who was his jailor's daughter. This girl visited him during his confinement.
Before his death, he wrote her a letter signed "From your Valentine," an expression that is still in use today. Although the truth behind the Valentine legends is murky, the stories all emphasize his appeal as a sympathetic, heroic and most importantly romantic figure.
A Pagan Festival?
While some believe Valentine's Day is celebrated in the middle of February to commemorate the anniversary of Valentine's death or burial which occurred around A.D. 270, others claim the Christian Church may have decided to place St. Valentine's feast day in the middle of February in an effort to "Christianize" the pagan celebration of Lupercalia.
Celebrated at the ides of February, or February 15, Lupercalia was a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman god of agriculture, as well as to the Roman founders Romulus and Remus.
To begin the festival, members of the Luperci, an order of Roman priests, would gather at a sacred cave where the infants Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, were believed to have been cared for by a she - wolf or lupa.
The priests would sacrifice a goat, for fertility, and a dog, for purification. They would then strip the goat's hide into strips, dip them into the sacrificial blood and take to the streets, gently slapping both women and crop fields with the goat hide.
Far from being fearful, Roman women welcomed the touch of the hides because it was believed to make them more fertile in the coming year.

Activist -- outings? Don't activists sit in meetings and send in agency comments, and don't outings just have fun? Not if you're helping the Sierra Club's priority campaign to protect America's wildlands by going on one of our year 2000 national activist outings. This year we offer eight great opportunities to blend conservation activism with enjoyment of nature in beautiful surroundings. Among these eight choices, everyone can find something special to savor, from river rafting to backpacking to bicycling.
Trip 101A: Nevada's Black Rock Desert/High Rock Canyon. May 28 to June 3, 2000. The obscure northwest corner of Nevada has just become a sizzling political hot potato as Nevada's two senators stand on the verge of introducing legislation to establish a National Conservation Area. Trip leader Carol Tresner provides two base camps in this scenic, historic but remote part of our country's most mountainous state. Learn how to become a key advocate for this and other Nevada wildland preservation issues. Price: $445.
Trip 102A: Seeking Yosemite's Lost Twin; Hetch Hetchy Backpack, Yosemite. July 16-22, 2000. Longtime backpack leaders Cal and Letty French and Sierra Club Hetch Hetchy task force chair Ron Good take you on a journey through the spectacular headwaters of the Tuolumne River and its canyons and glacial domes in northern Yosemite National Park to discover what can be done to restore the fabled Hetchy Hetchy Valley, lost by a dam infamous in Sierra Club history. Expect a visit from John Muir to the trip to remind folks that dams may not be forever. Price $350.
Trip 422A: Hawaiian Hot Spots: Kauai, Hawaii. July 22-29, 2000. The second activist outing to Hawaii is the first to the garden isle of Kauai. Explore verdant valleys and mountain canyons, dryland forests and coasts, as you learn about development, endangered species, and pollution threats to the Na Pali Coastline, Waimea Canyon and the surrounding Kokee State Park forest preserve, and the Wailua River Valley. With accommodation in rustic cabins at the Kahili Mountain Park above Poipu, this trip led by Jennifer Taddei and Lucienne de Naie offers a comfortable setting for its unique blend of adventure and advocacy. Price: $745.
Trip 103A: Northern California Whitewater and Wilderness, Klamath River. July 23-29, 2000. River and wildlife protection, wilderness and forest preservation mesh together with this ingeniously designed river rafting trip. Northern California's Wild and Scenic Lower Klamath River in the beautiful Siskiyou Mountains, with its varied wildlife, sparkling side creeks waterfalls, and hidden swimming holes is the stage. The need to preserve wild salmon habitat, saving the Headwaters forest and California's new wilderness campaign are the classic play, and leader Margaret Pennington will help you be star actor. Price $745.
Trip 104A: The Copper River, Alaska. The majestic Copper River rises in Wrangell-St. Elias, our nation's largest national park, and flows into Prince William Sound near Cordova, in the Chugach National Forest. It provides a magnificent setting for afloat trip that also studies the issues surrounding a road-building proposal across the fragile Copper River delta. The Copper River delta, a critical staging area for shorebirds and other waterfowl, supports world-renowned salmon runs and large predators. It is the largest wetlands on the Pacific coast of North America. Starting with land-based exploration and a glacier hike at picturesque McCarthy, the raft trip led by Blaine LeCheminant goes from the Kennicott River to the Chitina to the Copper - an unforgettable adventure. Price $1995.
Trip 105A: Montana Wilderness: how much is enough? August 13-19, 2000. The northern Rockies ecosystem contains some of our most extraordinary yet unprotected lands. Guided by leader Roger Grissette, you'll learn about wilderness proposals for unprotected roadless areas and the need for biological corridors. The Kootenai National Forest and the Flathead National Forest serve as bases for two separate short backpack ventures, that show both over-exploitation of forest resources and still pristine resources worth fighting for. The famed Yaak River Valley and Swan Valley will be focal high points,connected by a car shuttle. Price: $395.
Trip 106A: Book Cliffs Bicycle Odyssey, Utah. Sept. 2 -9, 2000. Leaders Vicky Hoover and Jim Catlin guide this mountain bike trip on remote dirt roads forming the boundaries of proposed wilderness in the remote Book Cliffs of eastern Utah. Abundant wildlife, the vastness, and an austere rugged beauty make the Book Cliffs one of the most important areas included in the 9.1 million-acre Citizens Wilderness proposal for Utah's Bureau of Land management lands. Join the nationwide campaign for Utah wilderness while enjoying moderate cycling in the East Tavaputs Plateau portion of the Book Cliffs. Lofty plateaus and intricate canyons are the backdrop for our vehicle-supported venture. Price: $425.
Trip 107A: Blue Skies over Big Bend, Texas. October 29 to Nov. 4, 2000 (New trip just added -- not in Outings Issue of Sierra!) National parks are supposed to be protected areas, but it's a knotty problem how to protect a rugged, wild place like Big Bend National Park from encroaching regional haze, caused by sulfurous particulates from power plants, mainly across the Mexican border. During the scenic backpack with leader Rich Schiebel, participants will learn how the Blue Skies Binational Network is encouraging Texas governor George Bush and Vice President Al Gore to help control power plant emissions. Big Bend country's famous views from the Chisos Mountains to the volcanic badlands near Mule Ears Peaks are the goal of our moderate trail backpack with vehicle support and dayhikes. Price $395.

Why was my PC running when I woke up?
A weird thing has just happened: last night, like every other night, I sent my PC to
hibernation (by pushing the on/off button on the case) before I went to bed. I
waited for the cooling fans to stop and the screens to go blank, so I'm sure it was
But this morning it was running. I was wondering how that could be.
There was no blackout (the microwave's clock was working alright) and nothing fell
on the "ON" button on the case.
The only thing out of ordinary I can remember was an orange icon next to the
shutdown button. I noticed it earlier that day but forgot about it.
I checked the logs and it looks like that the system started around 3am.
I really hope there is a technical explanation and I'm not sleepwalking...

hi !
i had exactly the same problem a few weeks ago, my computer started at 03.00
and i was sleeping, having a very nice dream about a nice girl....
so i said some 4-letter words and then just pulled the power cable.
later that evening i found the problem, i had set my antivirus to do a scan at 03.00,
and since there is a setting under control panel/system to "allow processes to wake the computer" (or similar), it started as scheduled.
it was called something like that, i can´t tell right now since i´m not at home at the moment, but i can check when i get home.

Hmm... I do have a task in NOD32's scheduler to run "log maintenance" at 3.00 am. But
I had NOD32 like forever and never woke the PC up. Especially that it wasn't in "sleep"
mode but in hibernation with full POST during boot and stuff, really cold shutdown.
So I suspect that the fact that this antivirus task ran at 3:01am is the result of the
PC being running and not the cause of it.
Are there some logs I should take a look at?

Tenderloin Reading Series
Peter has provided a visual soundtrack to his personal musings on interactions with Tenderloin residents and characters. He has kindly allowed TLRS to repost this series. You can see more of his work here.
She looks like a grandmother who ended up living on the street.
She is always by the entrance of the same store, sitting on the sidewalk. Unless she is going somewhere, she takes her shoes off and puts them by her side. I don't know, why. Her stomach looks unnaturally large, but this is because she carries all her things stuffed under her sweater.
I don't know what to think about her. I have seen her having a normal conversation with people, but other times she just blurts out random things at everyone who pass by. I have seen her eating a pile of rice off the sidewalk or emptying her bowels on the curb, but also having a good laugh with people, in a genuine way.
She was just walking around when I asked if I could take a picture of her. She said "Okay", and sat down. I told her about the extra time I will need with my camera, and then set up quickly across from her.
While I took the first picture, she kept turning her head and body away, then back. I asked her to be still, but she didn't stop, as if she couldn't decide to be in the picture or not. I tried to take a second picture, but she simply turned away.
I didn't want to disturb her too long. I gave her some change and wished her good luck.
"Thank you", she said, and smiled. Her face had sharp, distinctive features.

Farewell To Koko Cocktails
It's been an amazing run. For the establishment, for TLRS, and for all of us. This reading would not exist were it not for Justin, Lori, and Chris. We are so sad to see them go, but hope that you will all join them again up the street at the future Hi-Lo Club on Polk. We'll post a bulletin about its opening when that information becomes available. The last TLRS at Koko was a special night for all of us, and for those who would like to relive it the generous words ofNicole McFeely at Litseen encapsulate the end of an era for TLRS. There is video as well. The Tenderloin Reading Series will live on, at a to be decided new location. For now, we have once again been kindly invited to participate in the annual Litquake festival Litcrawl on Saturday October 15, 2011..details of that reading are to follow shortly. We have a very special holiday event planned for December, and more on that to come as well.
If you have been following our progress you'll note that tenderloinreadingseries.com has continued to expand the content we regularly post; drawing on a number of now-regular contributors, as well as expanding the scope of Tenderlogues. Expect more of this as well. For now, here's my fond farewell to the bar that started this all:
The man who would wake tomorrow
Would arise tired and hungover
With a vigilant tingle of last night's wine
In the space between his teeth.
The sun would enter
Through the curtains he would leave drawn open
Before going to sleep the previous night
And there would be a parade of garbage-men
In noisy vehicles following him
From the tail end of his dreams
Into the morning light.
There would be a late night he could vaguely
Remember with a woman he had known
So clearly, had sketched out a mental picture in the
The boozy fog of last call and now seeking to recollect
And there would be businessmen erect, walking power points
Next to street urchins erect and unsheathed at the 38 bus station
Waiting on the long L that winds from downtown towards the ocean
And he would pour his morning coffee
And he would top it off with whiskey
And he would watch, when there were
Birds that congregated in the eaves of the adjacent buildings
And would remark to himself on one thing or another
And at some point the crowd would disperse
And he would let his eyes traverse the messy amalgam of
The Tenderloin streets again.
If there was a summer it would start to be felt
In the streets on that day
The man who would wake up tomorrow would walk down
To Sing Sing and smoke cigarettes in the backroom
Watching Vietnamese talent shows and playing slot machines
And stubbing smoke butts into the leftovers of banh mi sandwhiches
And would take an ice coffee as thick as engine oil and feel it flutter
Down the chamber of his gullet as Ellis Street began to stink of human waste
And crack smoke and spilled liquor with brand names like college baseball teams
And he would wander the dollar stores
And stop to talk to women in doorways
Of single room hotels whom he would gladly take home
If it weren't for the fact that
He has no idea what home is anymore
He would wander toward the edge of Union Square,
And the corporate portrait of the city would be enlarged
Long enough for him to grow weary of the tourists who also wandered around
Their heads all detached from their bodies
As though they were searching for a sign
From a place beyond the Cheesecake Factory.
And he would have stopped in the small grove called the Tenderloin National Forest
With a brown bag and the fading daylight and been content
With a day spent in precisely the way he pleased
And as the sun would go down he would remember some one
Who on the previous night seemed to know him so well
Starting at the Edinburgh Castle, to the Geary Club, to Frankies 21, Ha-ra
And ending where he would now return
To recall with the bartender last night's avails
In the dim-lit corner of Koko Cocktails
And the bartender would remind him that all went well
That he remembered to tip
That she seemed like a nice girl
That he should consider calling her
If she had made that much of an impression
And all of this might have happened
Precisely in this manner
Were the man who would wake up tomorrow
Been able to stroll from the doors of his apartment
Up the corridor and into this room
One more time.
William Taylor Jr. is the greatest poet that I know. I feel fortunate to have raised a glass with this man, whose words have reached some silent part of me and stayed there since I first had the good luck of being introduced to him. His work is powerful, insightful, and worth every second of your attention. He has been kind enough to allow us to re-post the occasional poem of his here on the TLRS website. You can read his contribution to the Tenderlogues project here.
I wake up
and call in sick to work
because some days the faces
and the voices
and the rest of it
are just a bit too much to face
and time is needed just to stare at walls
or get righteously drunk
or do nothing at all
which seems to be a dying art
in a dying world
it is a Sunday afternoon
and I walk along Geary Boulevard
until I find a bar that has no name
just a doorway to a darkened little room
an escape hatch from the day
I duck in there
and the bartender is kind
I order a beer and she gives me that
and a shot of something on the house
I look up at the television screen
and see the city of New Orleans
and a voice says hey Elvis
I turn my head
and at the end of a bar
a blonde woman old enough
to be my mother
flashes her tits
I smile weakly and buy her a beer
glad to have found
a new place to hide.
San Francisco, 2011
The Urban Surface Series is a photographic narrative project by Tenderloin resident and artist Peter Balogh. Using an old-fashioned wooden pinhole camera, Peter has provided a visual soundtrack to his personal musings on interactions with Tenderloin residents and characters. He has kindly allowed TLRS to repost this series. You can see more of his work here.
I've seen him many times before.
He is always in the same place, sitting in a folding chair, wearing the same hat and poncho, reading a book. I have an old picture of my dad reading a book like that.
He seems very organized, polite, and in great physical shape. He might have some military background. He never asks for money; instead, he has a cup on a string with a small fishing pole, for those who want to help.
When I walked up to him, I was nervous. He wasn't. I asked him if it was okay to take a picture of him, he simply said "Yes, of course". He only got excited once he saw my wooden pinhole camera. "It looks old", he said. I told him it's an old method that takes about ten seconds to expose the film, so I would need him to be very still. "No problem", he said.
He and his friend beside him were watching me quietly as I placed my camera down on the sidewalk about ten feet away. A third man, someone they apparently knew, walked up to me and tried to start a conversation. I didn't mind, but he kept walking into the frame as I tried to take a shot.
My guy must have seen my frustration because he told the disruptive man to stand to the side and let me do my thing. I rolled the film forward and took a second picture. It was a success.
I said thank you to him and put some money in his hand. Some of the others began talking to me again, very fast and excited. I couldn't really understand what they were saying.
"Don't mind them," he said, "it's the drugs. I don't do drugs. I drink, but no drugs."
"It's all good," I said, "I drink, too."
We smiled and I wished him good luck.

I moved across a bay
to escape
your memory.
But the last time
I climbed on to
a bus downtown,
it was the most
I'd ever been on,
People pushing and shifting,
like the front row of the Danzig show
we went to
that time you lost your skirt,
or cattle on a train.
I looked up, and there you were,
(Hello Stranger)
holding Addy,
both of you smiling down
at me from
just above all of our heads,
between an ad for a
personal injury lawyer
and another
City College.
Both of you
smiling down on me,
(Sh-bop sh-bop my baby)
like a spotlight
just on
(Sh-bop sh-bop my baby oooh)
even in
the late afternoon
taking me from
all the way back home.
But no.
Just a photo.
This ain't no fucking metaphor,
it wasn't a woman that looked like you,
it was a picture of you.
(Seems so good to see you back again,)
Stock photography,
taken from way back
(how long has it been? A-ooh)
and put on this city bus,
a spot for
women's services.
"I never hit her,"
I wanted to say, to explain,
(It seems like a mighty long time)
"I wouldn't!"
But, of course,
they couldn't know,
wouldn't care.
Just some woman
and a little girl
in an ad on the bus.
(Oh my my my,
sh-bop, sh-bop my baby)
I had almost forgotten the
incident until
today. I got on
the bus, downtown
I looked up,
expecting to
see you there again
(seems like a mighty long time)
sure enough,
there was
(I'm so glad
you stopped to say hello to me,)
your faces. Smiling down
on me.
(remember that's the way it used to be?)
You told me
you'd like to see it sometime
(Sh-bop sh-bop, my baby oooh).
Well meet me
downtown, Baby-Girl.
We'll ride the bus.

Dear Ms. Tenderloin
Monday morning.
The sun hasn't
Shone in my window
In a week.
The other night there was a flash of light,
Then an explosion on O'Farrell Street…
Later gunshots
This is not
A social commentary.
Dear Ms. Tenderloin
Drinking a bottle of Andre
On a Saturday night
When a fire broke out
In front of the bar
With the password
And the dress code
I went out there in my sweatpants
And a to-go cup
Just as the firefighters were
Winding their hoses up
And all the suits
On the manicured corner
Of Jones Street
Looked like they were
Trying to avoid the gaze of a ghost
As they stood outside the bar
Puffing their cigarettes
Into the cheap air
Fixated on some arbitrary point
In the distance
Like trained performers
Did we smile together there? It felt like old times.
Dear Ms. Tenderloin
I thought you were mine
But last night I saw you dancing
With cocaine in the doorway
Of the Lincoln Hotel
His powdery lips bunched up against yours
His vim in your bloodstream
Like sperm swimming upstream
Can you hear me when I talk to you like this?
Sometimes I think you can,
But it has been so long since I felt at home
In your arms.
I was younger, this is true
And I quickly became enamored
With everything about you
I spent my sunrises on your floors
Picking out a tune
That the neighbors on the other end
Of the air shaft sang along to
Sitting on their kitchen floor
And I walked out the front door
As you slowly came to
Your arms tattooed
With cross-town traffic.
Dear Ms. Tenderloin
I shoveled pizza into my face at 1:30 in the morning
I spun around on a smoke blanketed dance floor
Bright dresses, buttoned collars in the bomb shelters
Of backroom clubs
Made love to strangers
With the graceless ineptitude
Of a virgin
All to be nearer to you
I thought we had an understanding
And was so relieved to return to you
After getting hustled out of a twenty
For a bag of weed I never wanted
By a bus boy in Chinatown
Whose remaining teeth
Must have been erected on landfill
Before the big earthquake hit
And my lover and I sit
Leaning out on a ledge
Overlooking Shannon Alley
And I watched you slide your sad fingers
Up the shirt of an old girl
In a goodwill miniskirt
With embroidered pearls on it
And you gave her a panged relief
That was feverish and bittersweet
A covenant of madness
That made it easier for her
To spill her guts back out
Onto the street
And you sponged them up
Propelled by the heavy rain
They swirled down the drain
Into the bowels of your wide belly
Stop yourself if you're thinking of telling
Me that everything and nothing is the same
I know this is true, but I'm not a tourist
And somehow still I am not a part of you.
Ms. Tenderloin
Perhaps you have endeavored to love us all equally
You are San Francisco's statue of liberty…
But sometimes I look at these streets
And feel like the runt of the litter
Clamoring to feed on the busy sacrifice
Of your defeated body
Do you hear that?
William Bell
Is singing
To a two-step
Out of
The speakers
Facing the window
Of a
Twelve story
On Geary
"You don't miss your water, till your well runs dry"
I'm not altogether sure
If I'm hungry anymore
Exiting the liquor store
I spill my change onto the street
And don't pick it up
Faith in Humanity
Sometimes the planets align in just the right manner,
and the air is clean and cold,
and the stars seem brighter,
and things are just too perfect,
and my limited faith in humanity is refilled.
Filled to overflowing
with the generosity of strangers.
"I'm Mary. This is my partner Joseph." We squeezed into their boundary at the bar hoping for a space to put drinks down.
"Get this, Get this!" Whit screamed hands waving dramatically, "He's a carpenter!" She was the first to hone in on the bar stool with a wink and a smile to Mary; they were hugging within minutes of introduction.
"I don't believe you. This is a clever ruse you two perform at bars to hustle strangers. Do you juggle too?"
"No, but he's trying to convince me to name our first child Jesus. It'd be just blasphemous enough. I could yell, 'CHRIST! Jesus! Get the HELL in here!' when he was playing in the street or something."
Joseph had a thick red beard, lumberjack style. "I sort of have a thing for Lumberjacks." He pulled out a picture of himself atop a 50 foot tree.
"Funny enough, I WAS a Lumberjack before I traveled around the country with The String Cheese Incident." He spoke eloquently with Bostonian accent, a juxtaposition that almost caused cranial aneurism, while his friend played poster child for the Massachusetts Accent Council with phrases like, "Wicked retarded, kid. Wicked pisser." Which came out phonetically as, "Wikkid Reeetahhded, kitt. Wikkid Piissahh."
We laughed and talked and yelled and danced and made fun of accents and admired beards and drank and smoked listened to the juke until Mary said, "You guys should come over!"
Now, I usually don't go home with strangers upon first meeting. I live in the Tenderloin. I have trust issues. I don't have faith in humanity. I don't have faith. I get in these mindsets where I think that everyone is evil and after me and that flying monkeys are going to descend from the sky and steal my bus pass or my keys or that someone is going to slip a roofie in my beer or lace my bowl with PCP, that wild dogs will tear my throat out on the street and I'll be found days later by a top-notch CSI team going through my purse pulling out empty baggies and scanning my body with black-lights, heads shaking, muttering to one another in hushed tones, "She had too much faith in people".
You could say I carry an unhealthy dose of paranoia in my personal baggage.
You could say I have a lot of undiagnosed fear.
You could say that my desire for adventure is often overshadowed by my limited viewing window to reality.
I had none of these feelings around Mary and Joseph, genuinely good people (No, GREAT people), when they invited us into their home.
As we stumbled down the darkened streets of Hyde and Ellis, Whit picked up their accents screaming, "You drunk! You pahhked your cahhr in the bahhr!" and continued butchering the noble Boston sound to impossible levels of absurdity as we fearlessly ping-ponged down the alley to their apartment.
My cup overfloweth.
It all starts with me coming home from my telemarketing gig, off the BART station at eleven every night per always, and on up the Hyde Street wind tunnel for six blocks to the Serv-Well corner liquor pusher for an overpriced quart of milk at Ellis Street when a brother in front of me the size of a brick shithouse strolls five, maybe six paces out into Hyde, then whirls one hundred and eighty degrees on a dime at the sound of some shit talk and the bark of a forty-ouncer smacking off the sidewalk; another brother a quarter of the block down Ellis throwing down the corner liquor store gauntlet; two young men about to get it on in the heart of the one and only Tenderloin and adrenalin ripples out from the intersection, pushing uphill, rolling downhill and crawling toward the back of every alleyway evenly over a three block radius and it's all going down in front of the Serv-Well Market and I gotta go, yesiree I gotta get myself right the fuck across this here traffic, right across this here street and never in my life have I been so happy to see the gorgeous desolation of O'Farrell Street while pistol shots don't sound like they do in the movies (PA-CHEW! PA-CHEW!) but are a pop popping percussion that leaks around street corners and boxes in my ears while I hole in against a cleft in a brick wall only to find myself with an older, darker sister with canyon deep wisdom etched in her handsome jawbone croaks out "awshit, fools is gonna be dealin' out they dyin'" right before taking a gi-normous hit off of a tiny glass pipe, then gripping my shoulders while throwing her left leg around my waist and thrusting her tongue deep into my tonsils, allowing her coke washed, E & J flavored crack-hale roll into and overflow my sinuses leaving me heated, swollen and eager; leaving me wanting nothing more than to pull this smooth slab of loving neuro-electric carboplasm, deep inside of me until my wet has somehow consumed her wet but my ears pulse with the bastard cosmic hum of the ether and the distant pop-pop-pop, which caresses me warm, safe and sexy in the piss baked concrete smell of O'Farrell Street where I dream the creamy dreams of the possible for a period of time I cannot measure, but which only ever ends with me prone and alone in front of the stark, steely gray judgment that is the entrance gate to my apartment building…miraculously with keys, wallet and change somehow still in place…miraculously with my cock still dry and comfortably secured inside still zipped up Levis…miraculously with the sickly orange streetlight pall of O'Farrell Street completely abandoned, and every storefront bolted down and tucked snug against each other till the coming daylight, including, I am quite certain, my quart of milk safely ensconced within the Serv-Well market.
I can't see past the next brownstone-studio-live/work-office-loft-space-apartment housing the local non-profit, communally alternative shared living arrangement. Instead an urban backwash din soundtrack for this seething metropolis of street ghosts; the creamy, swirling hustle – the freak show roll call voices popping and bubbling in the thin wisp cauldron of consciousness designed and marketed for my ears.
Yeah, I see yo' ass slidin 'round the way, yeah slidin' round up on the highway but da law of physics say you got to fall down brutha. The law of the Tenderwomb say you pick and choose how high you get by how you pick and choose how far you got to fall, 'cause sooner or later you got to fall back down and I ain't seen you fall yet. I ain't seen you fall yet. I'm sure watchin' you fall is a very beautiful thing my brutha. Shit, I wait around all day waitin' to see you falls; I wait around right here to see you falls, 'cuz you be fallin' any day now. But I come back and watch you fall some other day, 'cuz now I gotta go get high…igh…ay..ay…ay…ay…ay…ay…ay…ay…ay!!!!
And as fast as it comes the cackling madness melts back into the flow of O'Farrell Street and I think I've lost my marbles for good this time, yes I think they've rolled out my ears and down the grimy hills because there are wharf rats barricading themselves in my kitchen and flying Oscar-fish chewing up my wardrobe. I'm watching people have conversations with fence posts and doors and walls and other people I can't see, which are not to say they're not there right? These voices don't come from disembodied spirits but from disembodied bodies. Except that one time when the old stranger whispered in my ear as I passed "how's that play you're working on going?" or when the lumped woman with the backpack sticker that says "JESUS HATES SEX" asked if I could see "Him" crucified on the bottom's of 747s overhead, and why, yes look there, there's the savior now, arms strapped to the bottoms of the wings and flapping his dick out all over the city.
It stops becoming them.
Did you hear that?
There's nothing quite like the sound of a shotgun blast in the 'Loin. It's a long, blissed out white noise like sheet metal no wanna-be industrial alterno-grunge band could ever hope to set free; a noise so pure and metallic that it does not die easily in the caverns of a thousand different alleyways. To know what is on the other side of that sound; to see it from out of the corner of up here is to connect ever so deeply with that splash that someone else made before the neighborhood's landlord association's steam cleaning contract come to wash that unique masterpiece away in a stream of brown chunks down into the corner gutter is not unlike biting down on aluminum foil and liking it; chewing with a clanging vigor that makes me realize if I never feel any of these sensations again, it will be much too soon.
It was 10 o'clock on a Friday night when I locked up the bookstore and stepped out onto Market Street. The Castro was in full party mode. I had worked all day with a hangover and all I wanted was home, beer and a bad sci-fi movie. I walked down the stairs to the Church Street Muni Station just in time to catch an inbound train. I sat down in one of those sideways seats in the middle of the car. Across from me stood a smallish woman who looked to be somewhere between 25 and 30 years of age. Her hair was dreadlocked and dirty blonde. She had a number of tattoos, none of which were interesting enough to describe in any detail. In short, she gave off that rather generic San Francisco punk/hippie/lesbian vibe.
At the next stop a very average looking man in a business suit, perhaps about 50 years old, got on the train and sat down in a seat near to where the Punk Hippie Lesbian stood. Their eyes met and immediately they were chatting as if they were old friends continuing some conversation that had been interrupted some ways back.
The subject of their overly animated conversation was the generally decrepit condition and lack of cleanliness of the train car, bought on, I imagine, by the half empty bag of Flaming Hot Cheetos spilled across the floor. "It's really disgusting how dirty these trains are," Punk Hippie Lesbian was saying. "BART is much cleaner."
"O, indeed, indeed!" The Average Man heartily asserted, his head bobbing up and down in complete agreement.
"These L trains are usually the worst," she continued. "The M's and the K's are sometimes okay, but these L's are always filthy! Always!"
"O, yes! Yes! Without a doubt!" The Average Man affirmed ever more loudly, his head now bobbing up and down at an impressive pace.
At the next stop a young man boarded the train and sat next to me, across from Punk Hippie Lesbian and The Average Man. He looked to be in his early twenties, and looked to be an Art School Kid. He had a fashionable beard and wore a gray hoodie. He carried a backpack and a small white plastic bag. Sitting down, he opened his small white plastic bag and removed from it a small white plastic container. He opened that and inside was some type of salad, let's say macaroni. He began eating with a small white plastic fork.
Sensing impending trouble, I glanced up to find the eyes of Punk Hippie Lesbian and The Average Man sternly fixed upon Hungry Art School Kid. "Last I heard, there was no eating on the train," Punk Hippie Lesbian said loudly, half to The Average Man and half to Hungry Art School Kid.
"O yes, I do believe there are numerous signs posted saying that very thing!" The Average Man loudly assented, his head still bobbing at an amazing rate.
"There sure are," Punk Hippie Lesbian continued, "a lot of them!"
The two of them kept on in this vein until Hungry Art School Kid reluctantly raised his head to take them in, his eyes tired and disbelieving. He looked back and forth between Punk Hippie Lesbian and The Average Man. He smiled as best he could and in a weary but polite voice he said, "Yes, I know you're not supposed to eat on the train, but I've had a long day and I'm very hungry."
Instead of being appeased, the dynamic duo of Punk Hippie Lesbian and The Average Man were simply all the more incensed. "O," the Average Man said in a cartoon voice as if he were scolding a seven year old child, "I guess some of us are special. Some of us don't have to follow the rules!"
"O yeah," Punk Hippie Lesbian joined in with a similar tone, "I wish I were special enough not to have to follow the rules. That would be great. But I guess I'm not special enough not to have to follow the rules!"
At this point every eye on the train was fixed on our little group. I sat silent in the midst of it, wanting to speak up on behalf of Hungry Art School Kid, but fearing it would only escalate things, I kept quiet.
Hungry Art School Kid stared in silence at the pair for a moment, still disbelieving. He then sighed as he put the lid back on his little plastic container of macaroni salad. He put the container along with the little plastic fork back in his little plastic bag. "Okay," he sighed, "Sorry."
Punk Hippie Lesbian and The Average Man said nothing but continued to glare at Hungry Art School Kid in silence. He met their gaze and eventually said, "Guess you guys had a bad day, huh?"
I immediately knew this was not the right thing to say. I think Hungry Art School Kid sensed it as well, but it was too late. Punk Hippie Lesbian exploded in a fury, shoving her face into Hungry Art School Kid's. "Guy?" she screeched, "Do I look like a guy?! I'm asking you, do I look like a guy!?"
"O, no!" The Average Man chimed in, his head now violently shaking back and forth in the negative. "No! No!" he shouted.
"Do I look like a guy!? Do I look like a guy!?"
"No! No!" shouted the Average Man.
This chorus continued unabated until the train stopped at the downtown station where Hungry Art School Kid and I got off. "Bye," Hungry Art School Kid offered softly as he stepped off the train.
This simple word sent Punk Hippie Lesbian into an entirely new level of rage.
"Bye!" she screamed back, as if the word were a cry of war. "Bye!" she screamed, again and again, her face and hands pressed against the window of the train as the door slid closed and the train started to pull away. Her eyes shone with pure hatred. "Bye! Bye! Bye!"
Hungry Art School Kid looked at me and I back at him as we walked up to street level. We said nothing. It was public transportation in San Francisco. Things happened. I gave a homeless man my transfer and headed north up Hyde Street toward my apartment.
A tall scarecrow of a man with a wide smile sauntered in my direction. Our eyes met and he smiled bigger. "I got me some fresh Run DMC shoes, and I'm gonna party tonight!" He proudly exclaimed. I looked at his feet to find them sporting a pair of Adidas that would truly do the rappers proud. He had a matching hat to complete the ensemble. He stood in front of me like he was posing for a record cover.
"Damn straight," I said.
The man smiled even wider, gave me a thumbs up with both hands and then ducked into The Brown Jug. I silently wished him well.
As I approached the corner of Geary and Hyde I saw a figure in the distance that at first looked to be a small child, but a small child standing by herself at the Corner of Geary and Hyde at 11 o'clock on a Friday night seemed unlikely. As I grew closer I noted that the figure was not a child at all, but a small woman. More precisely, a small prostitute. A dwarf prostitute, actually. In truth, she may have been a midget, rather than a dwarf. I'm far from an expert on such matters. Let's just say she was small.
I'd encountered this diminutive woman of the night a number of times previously. She was often around the neighborhood on the weekend. She was generally pleasant enough, usually greeting me with a "Whatcha doin' tonight, honey," or "Lookin' for a date?" to which I would mumble something incoherent in return and continue on my way. Tonight I gave her my usual sheepish smile as I passed and she smiled back and said, "Blowjob for 100 dollars!"
"No," I said, "thanks."
"60 dollars!"
"Not tonight," I said.
"Why not?" she asked, her voice souring.
"I gotta get home."
"Can you just give me five dollars, then?"
"No," I said, "I can't."
"It's just five dollars," she replied, now thoroughly disgusted with me. I figured if she was charging 100 dollars a blowjob, and gave at least one blowjob a day, she was doing better than I was. I shrugged and continued on as she shouted after me, "Five dollars, you fucking cheapskate! Five fucking dollars!" I decided I didn't like the dwarf prostitute anymore and from then on would cross the street to avoid her.
I stopped at the liquor store on the corner for something to drink. Outside the store a skinny tranny hooker stood on the corner and yelled for someone named Sal. "Sal," she cried again and again, "Sal!" Sal didn't seem to be around, or chose to ignore her. Her cries were desperate and mournful, like an animal abandoned in darkness. I walked past and she didn't acknowledge me. "Sal," she howled, "Sal!"
I walked the last block to my apartment building. I took a quick glance around to make sure no one was waiting to mug me as I opened the gate to the lobby. I stepped inside and shut the gate behind me. I checked my mail. Nothing good, so I left it there. I entered my apartment, took a beer from the six pack and put the rest in the fridge. I looked outside the window of my living room and the skinny tranny hooker was still on the street corner, still crying for Sal. I sincerely hoped that Sal would show up soon. Otherwise it was going to be a long night for everybody.

Loved them!!!
Signature of Love Rectangle Invitations I received my invitations yesterday and I am absolutely amazed at how beautiful they are. I changed the colors from Red and Black to Navy and Lime and LOVE it! The quality of the paper and the printing is perfect and the service was impeccable. I sent an email with questions and within a couple of hours they replied answering everything I needed. I was recommended to this site by a friend and I have already told other friends who are looking to purchase invitations… this is the place to go! Thank you so much Magnet Street.
Better Than Expected
Signature of Love Rectangle Invitations The customization process was simple and the invitations turned out beautifully. Without the customization process I never would have been able to find something with the exact colors I needed.
Signature of Love Rectangle Invitations I recently purchased the rectangle invitations, RSVP cards and enclosers. The invitations came within 5-7 days of purchase. The website is easy to use to make any changes in color, font, and wording. I completely changed the wording of the sample and it still looked really nice. I used the black border with the indigo accent color. The indigo looked a little more on the purple side of the color spectrum than it appears online. If you are thinking about the indigo color I would suggest selecting a lighter color like the royal blue. The indigo color does not pop out against the black border. I purchased the linen paper. The quality is good. The paper is thick and looks like you spent a lot of money. Not flimsy. I also used the return address service. The only complaint I have would be about the envelopes. The envelopes didn't match the quality of the invitation. The envelopes were very thin. You could see the invitation through it. It's so thin you can read the invitation through the envelope. An inner lining or second envelope would solve that problem but I didn't see anywhere that you can purchase a liner or inner envelope.
Signature of Love Rectangle Invitations The invitations are beautiful and the quality is great! I would absolutely recommend magnetstreet to anyone!
Loved it!
Signature of Love Rectangle Invitations I knew I picked a nice card, but the beauty of the cards were unexpected. They were absolutely stunning. The quality and the way they were shipped exceeded my expectations. The only problem I would say I had was that the envelopes adhesive did not probably stick and we had to use glue. Otherwise I would've given a score of five.

Grade Mayor Bloomberg's Sandy Response!
Posted By Laura Vladimirova On November 13, 2012 @ 1:00 pm In News & Features | 33 Comments
Hurricane Sandy was an unstoppable storm, affecting so many residents throughout our city. Mayor Michael Bloomberg is a figure many looked to for leadership and guidance during this critical time.
The opinions of his efforts or shortcomings, depending on any given perspective, vary greatly. WNYC [1] asked several New Yorkers how they would rate Bloomberg in the wake of Sandy.
Interestingly, of those interviewed in the piece, the three leaders representing the private sector graded the mayor fairly high, while the two public sector leaders gave Bloomberg an "F".
Ed Jaworski, president of the Madison-Marine-Homecrest Civic Association [2], was one of the interviewees who gave Bloomberg a failing grade. He said:
Sandy's impact reflects Mayor Bloomberg's obsession with real estate-development: seeking taller buildings and more densely packed population than other cities worldwide. Three weeks before the hurricane, he announced that he'd seek a major up-zoning on Manhattan's East Side. Did he address all the component infrastructure consequences, including safety? How about when he encouraged dense development on the Brooklyn and Queens waterfronts? Now, because we have a Department of City Planning that doesn't plan — it rezones — the mayor had to appoint a director of housing recovery operations and community restoration directors.
We'd like to hear your take on Bloomberg's efforts. On your standard grammar school scale of A to F, did he do well by our neighborhood before, during and after Hurricane Sandy?

Man whose lottery tickets led to arrest found guilty of murder
BY RUMMANA HUSSAIN Criminal Courts email@example.com October 31, 2012 1:50PM
4-13-07 Chicago Police charge Timothy Fountain with a 2005 double homocide. Chicago Police Dept. mugshot.
Updated: October 31, 2012 7:18PM
Cook County prosecutors said Timothy Fountain filled out some lottery tickets before he gunned down two people and robbed a Southwest Side grocery store.
Unfortunately for him, the numbers he selected in his Pick Four game, including his mother's address, led to his arrests two years following the 2005 murders.
The 42-year-old ran out of luck again Wednesday when a Cook County jury found him guilty of armed robbery and murder charges for the violent spree at Maggy's Food.
Fountain, a habitual criminal, kept his head down when the verdicts were read in Judge Charles Burns' courtroom.
A few feet away, over two dozen relatives of Graciela Rodriguez, 37, and Nicholas Guerrero, 75, silently wept.
Fountain left the lottery tickets at the store after he shot cashier Rodriguez and longtime customer, Guerrero, prosecutors said.
Fountain was identified by a teen who glimpsed Fountain outside the store, in the 4400 block of South California.
Phone records also showed Fountain was in the area at the time of the murders and his DNA was also found under Guerrero's fingernails, according to court testimony.
Fountain faces mandatory life in prison.
Although Rodriguez's brother said he was relieved Fountain was convicted and will never be a free man, he wished he could have been sentenced to death.
"I wanted to see him shake and die," Pedro Garcia said outside the courtroom.

A Long Goodbye to Web 2.0 Expo
Web 2.0 Expo began eons ago in Internet Years – April of 2007 – in San Francisco. It was the first conference and tradeshow for the rapidly growing ranks of designers and developers, product managers, entrepreneurs, VCs, marketers, and business strategists who embraced the opportunities created by Web 2.0, a term coined at the birth of Web 2.0 Summit (formerly named Web 2.0 Conference), a joint venture between O'Reilly Media , UBM TechWeb, and Federated Media.
We added our popular New York show in 2008. This bicoastal expo and multi-track conference brought together people, ideas, connections, contacts, products, and companies to foster stronger Web 2.0 communities. It featured influential keynotes and speakers, detailed workshops, a Startup Showcase, an Expo show floor, and rich networking events.
And while Web 2.0 Expo continues to be a vibrant brand, the evolving market conditions surrounding the web ecosystem have led to a decision by the co-producers of Web 2.0 Expo events, UBM TechWeb and O'Reilly, to discontinue the production of the bi-annual Web 2.0 Expo SF & NY indefinitely. (The partners continue to discuss possibilities around Web 2.0 Summit in 2012, and will update you when plans have solidified.)
We've had a great time bringing you this amazing show year after year. And now at its close, we'd like to share with you a few of our favorite things from Web 2.0 Expo:
Gary Vaynerchuk's keynote in New York from 2008. His message of doing what you love resonated with a lot of people and is one of our most popular and frequently shared videos.
Rana Sobhany's presentation from NY 2010 encapsulates so much of how Web 2.0 technologies and devices are changing not just business but popular culture, enabling people to be more creative, and to connect and have fun IRL too, not just digitally.
This is one of Tim O'Reilly's most thought-provoking keynotes from the conference series and a good summary of the evolution of Web 2.0.
Carlota Perez at Web 2.0 Expo New York this year dazzled the audience with her brilliance as Fred Wilson interviewed her.

Subject: W2E bag misspelling
Hi Kaitlin,
The W2E bag that we're giving to attendees has San Francisco misspelled (San Franciso)… a little embarrassing (okay… a lot embarrassing). Can you come up with a cute apology to tweet so we can acknowledge it ahead of time? Please send the proposed tweet to this group first.
Oh boy. That was embarrassing. We had a large team of people who supposedly reviewed the bag before it went to print, including me. And none of us caught it.
Although we only used a few of them, here are all the tweets I wrote to deal with this slight emergency:
@w2e Web 2.0 Expo – We're big on ideas, Horrible with Spelling. (sorry, San Franciso – I mean San Francisco…)
@w2e Raise your hand if you've ever misspelled something important on an attendee bag. Okay, looks like I'm the only one raising my hand. #w2e
@w2e We'd like to introduce you to our copyreader for the attendee bags, but he's currently in hiding.
@w2e So… how about them conference bags? Yea, our English teachers from high school just called to chew us out.
@w2e We like turning lemons into lemonade. Think of this year's conference bag as the big version of those stamps with the upside down airplane. Except replace airplane w/ super embarrassing spelling error. #w2e
@w2e Web 2.0 Expo Bag Copyreaders: Rebelling against spelling norms since this conference. #w2e
@w2e I'd like to take this time to dedicate a special tweet to all 20 people who reviewed the conference bags, and didn't see that San Francisco was misspelled. #w2e
@w2e Web 2.0 Expo: We don't just have conferences in San Francisco; we also have them in San Franciso.
@w2e Web 2.0 Expo theme for next year announced: the Power of Spell Check
@w2e To answer your question about the attendee bag, yes, we know.
All the Tech Fit to Print
We had major announcements and news at each Web 2.0 Expo. Here's a short collection of the buzz we received:
"The theme of the expo was "The Power of Less," but being there, you could actually feel like the theme should have been 'The Power of More.' More startups. More entrepreneurs. More ideas." –Star Ledger
"In fact, the startup veterans and would-be moguls at Web 2.0 seemed oddly energized by the economic climate, as if the lack of easy capital — or any capital, beyond personal credit cards — is a blessing. The attitude was anything but defeatist or glum." –Star Ledger
"I'm live at Web 2.0 Expo in New York, surrounded by digerati/I'm sitting with about a thousand people at the keynote session for the Web 2.0 Expo in New York, I'm surrounded by bloggers, tweeters and media types of all shapes. On stage is Tim O'Reilly, the coiner of term Web 2.0. He's talking about how he is still excited about the internet." – ecademy
"Web 2.0 Expo opened in New York's Javits Center this morning. It runs through Thursday November 19 and though the theme of the conference is "the power of less," there's already a more-remarkable-than-ever outpouring of online media associated with the Expo: a fast-flowing tweet-stream, official webcasts (registration required), and a super-abundance of ways you can network, comment, connect, and pile on, even if you're nowhere near New York." –Web Owner Tools
"At the Web 2.0 Expo in New York City this week, executives from big sites like Facebook, Twitter and Pandora all spoke about industry trends. But the showcase of 27 startup tech companies stole the show." –CNNMoney
"Then we went into a room full of entrepreneurs with laptops pitching their wares. It was like a trade show or expo except instead of pitching for customers, they were pitching for investors. And everyone got to be a VC along with me and Tim. It was a great format. I loved it and judging from the amount of enthusiasm in the room, so did everyone else who was there." –Business Insider
"Amid buzzwords like social media, location, real time, and search, the Web 2.0 Expo, taking place here this week, seeks to find out where the Web is going, and how it will get there." -CNET
"Web 2.0 Expo was at full speed on Wednesday in San Francisco. The Internet-focused conference's early morning keynotes covered a lot of ground, and one of the most memorable presentations was Parrot's live demonstration of an iPhone-controlled helicopter." -VentureBeat
"The Web 2.0 Expo is in full swing in San Francisco, CA. One of the more interesting panels to take place earlier today was called What to Expect from Browsers in the Next Five Years. The panel's roster included some of the biggest names in the browser industry, with representatives from Palm, Yahoo, Mozilla, Opera, Google, and Microsoft." -TechCrunch
"This week it's the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco, where we've been listening to a wide selection of presentations and meeting a bunch of interesting people and companies old and new." -ZDNet

Unconventional Career Path Takes Elliott to a Happy Place
by Rob Keys
Posted 11/9/2012 09:36 am
Updated 2 years ago
Cassie Elliott broke into the real estate industry in 2005, and by 2008 had risen to the level of managing broker at Crye-Leike Realtors' Bentonville office.
Elliott was recognized as part of the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal's Forty Under 40 class in 2008, too, but soon would take what some might consider a backward career step. Spurred by a combination of factors, Elliott gave up her managing broker duties and lessened her involvement in the industry.
What might have been construed as an odd professional move, however, turned out to be one of the most rewarding things Elliott ever has done.
"It's been quite a journey, but I have to say I'm probably happier than I've been in a long, long time," she said.
These days, Elliott remains involved in real estate, as an executive broker at Crye-Leike's Bentonville office. She splits her energies there between residential and commercial work, including a lot of what she calls "specialty properties" like The Applegate House, other historical homes and bed and breakfasts.
About 80 percent of Elliott's professional time, though, is devoted to her own business, Visionary Milestones Inc. She founded VMI in 2004, after working as a consultant for about five years.
Elliott's work at VMI is a continuation of the consulting. Primarily, that means a lot of "grants administration work," she said.
She typically works with municipalities, funding agencies and engineering firms, and does a lot of projects with the Arkansas Economic Development Commission. The funding usually is related to things like easements and annexations, water and sewer lines, power stations, equipment acquisition or projects tied to job creation.
Elliott acts as a liaison between a county or city and the state and the corporation.
"I do all of the paperwork — the pay requests, the job tracking," Elliott said. "If there's construction involved, I make sure all the labor laws are followed.
"There's nothing like going to a city and meeting with their city council and them saying, 'We don't know what we would've done without this grant money. This means so much to our city and the future of our city.'
"That kind of stuff means a ton. You can't replace the feeling."
That feeling is what she had begun to miss in 2008, when real estate work was her main focus. Combined with the fact she was traveling frequently to Russellville, where her mother had been diagnosed with lymphoma, Elliott's desire for more personal and professional happiness led her to shift her focus back to consulting.
"I saw a little niche there, and I knew about it because I had done that before," she said, "but I just hadn't said, 'OK, I'm going to devote the time to growing that part of my business.'"
Elliott concedes the real estate crash also contributed to the shift.
"There was a time in the mid-2000s when your business was going so good you didn't really pay attention to expenses," Elliott said. "If somebody called up and wanted you to buy an ad or something, you just did it.
"When you're getting $50,000 and $60,000 commission checks, you could go out and buy a car. I never did that personally, but I know agents that did."
Chasing those kinds of paydays is not what Elliott recommends to young professionals.
"I think people just need to have faith and follow their heart, and not necessarily do something that they think somebody else wants them to do or because they think that's where the money is," she said.
"I mean, I won't lie, what I do as a grants administrator can be profitable, but it also can be not profitable. But at the same time, there's just a feeling about it that you're making a difference and I think that's what really draws me to it more than anything."
Aspects of Elliott's work as a grants administrator sometimes overlap with her work as a real estate broker, and she's excited the Northwest Arkansas market seems to be enjoying an uptick. She just hopes all the players, and especially the banks, proceed at a more reasonable pace this time.
"They hold the keys," she said of lenders. "They have the cash. … Smart, steady growth, I think, is the key."
Away from work, Elliott, 40, likes to engage in outdoor activities with her husband and two children.
"Running, hiking, mountain biking," she said. "We love it all."
