SPECIAL REPORT - Tech money flows to Whitman, bypasses Fiorina


SAN JOSE/LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The Valentine's Ball thrown by venture capitalist Alan Salzman and his wife Jillian Manus every year is one of Silicon Valley's hottest tickets. People are still talking about the Bailey's Irish Cream flowing from the nipples of ice sculptures at the soiree last year.

This year a "barrel full of monkeys" -- actually, live performers in monkey suits -- greeted guests to the couple's themed grounds in the swanky Northern California town of Atherton. The black tie and costume benefit for cancer draws CEOs, friends -- and up to $750,000 in donations.
