document.The mayor, who was booked to fly to New York yesterday morning from San
Francisco International Airport, said the call "didn't come in any alarming
fashion, which is why I'm hesitant to make an alarming statement.""It was not an abnormal call.Exactly where the call came from is a bit of a mystery.The mayor would say
only that it came from "my security people at the airport."Mike McCarron, assistant deputy director at SFO, said the Federal Aviation
Administration "routinely" issues security notices about possible threats.Whatever the case, Brown didn't think about it again until he was up,
dressed and waiting for his ride to the airport for an 8 a."You know, you're the first call I've gotten on this," Brown said to
Hallinan, as they were signing off.With that, the mayor hung up and headed for City Hall.Along the way, he
made the call to close all city buildings for the day and city schools as well.The Coast Guard: "To make sure the bridges were being protected."And to the health, police and fire departments to make sure they were
staffed for the emergency.And for the most part they did.Brown said as he sipped coffee with reporters
at Citizen Cake on Grove Street.They've also put out the word to watch for suspicious packages.THE OTHER BROWN: Over in Oakland, Mayor Jerry Brown was trying his best to
keep things normal as well."We're carrying on," Brown said."The goal is to sow disunity and to undermine our faith in the leadership
of the country."Democratic
consultants in Washington, D."This was a grown man in his 50s, and he was scared out of his wits because
he'd heard that a second plane was headed for the Pentagon," Maslin said.Chronicle columnists Phillip Matier and Andrew Ross appear Sundays, Mondays and Wednesdays.Professionally homeless, to finance the sex talkWorst cell phones As we begin a new year, we look back at the cell phones...Veterans group, Maxine Hong Kingston together use writing to healForeign visitors descend on S.Professionally homeless, to finance the sex talkPS3 Holiday Sales Total 1.Share your thoughts on this story.Sorry, comments are closed for this story.Andart
Another lobe of Anders Sandberg's distributed brain: essays on technology, science and the human condition.Very enjoyable, and brings up the question of how to mark new threats.All the truly cool transhuman technologies are going to require warning signs.Maybe we should define a RFID standard for this kind of hazard warnings, if it doesn't already exist?Every container or dangerous object has a RFID tag that enables a "danger detector" to tell that there is a particular problem nearby.There are a few obvious concerns: the signs should be clear, easily recognizable, not reliant on color vision and so on.But as the ratings show, the symbols are rather arbitrary.Note the wall in the second frame for some examples.The second sign from the left is a warning against naked singularities (better depicted in some later strip).The ghost warning is obvious (but a bit strange given Kevyns rationalism during the haunted starship storyline).Maybe it is about threats to the genome.My symbol is intended to both remind of a Penning trap (for early applications where we just have a few antiprotons) and a starlike explosion (for bigger amounts).Chaos control is likely to be very useful in many future applications.Macroscale quantum systems are likely not personally dangerous, but interfering with them will of course disrupt whatever they are doing.Of course, just seeing the warning might be enough to decohere them.Some might interpret the psi sign as a warning for psychic powers.If strangelets are stable at zero pressure and have a positive charge, they can absorb ordinary matter and convert it into more strangelets.Whether nanoparticles are dangerous or not depends likely on their size, composition, surface properties and what system they get into.There is nothing as worrying as invisible technology that might or might not be there, acting quietly.Doctorow and Stross had a fun idea for medical nanodevices in Jury Service, where they mark the person being rebuilt with small biohazard signs.Bulk diamond shards for example are extremely sharp and unlikely to wear down quickly.The hardness and slipperiness of a perfect diamondoid surface might also pose risks.While they might have safety programming this is nothing that can be taken for granted.As our exoselves become more and more dynamic and linked to our biological minds a loss of connectivity could cause breakups of our extended minds.It could also become nearly anything, with consequences ranging from the annoying to the disastrous.Compare with the Science Related Memetic Disorder in A Miracle of Science.Of course, the line between preventing viral bad ideas from spreading and censorship is a fine one.Motivation hazards: as we learn to affect our brains better there is an increased risk for addictions, gain pleasure from something harmful or that we edit ourselves to like our current state no matter what.The poppy represents such motivation traps.The staircase sign represents a general hazard, perhaps the induction of inconsistent beliefs, infinite loops or mistaken perception.Such threats would be species level threats to us today: large meteors, permanent climate destabilization, ecophagous nanomachines.Perhaps this ranking can be extended.Level 0 threats: all humans threatened.Individuals and small groups.Level 10: no humans threatened, but other values (such as unchanged biosphere, aesthetics or economy threatened).LEVEL 0 THREAT: GLOBAL DANGER.DO NOT MESS WITH"
It might also be possible to add a marker or border showing the probability of the threat happening if one disobeys the warning.Maybe this could be marked with a series of symbols or icons, denoting for example that if you mess up this particular thing, the damage is going to involve new technology, children, chronic effects and personal responsibility.If its true, it means that Ms.Rice had foreknowledge of the 911 attack.How long will Americans continue to be gullible?America today is an embarrassment

Corporation, KQED.Where else on earth would Brown get the
message not to fly on a particular day?The airport says there was no advisory
in place.Note that when asked, Brown clammed up as to the source.The city elite found
yet another way to be involved first hand in the reaming of the Republic.WILLIE BROWN, YOU TALK TOO MUCH.On the night of Monday, September 10, 2001, you got an
interesting call.Especially since you were booked
to fly to New York the next day.San Francisco International, Willie.And you, the San Francisco mayor, did not pass on the alert to anyone
else.The mayor would say only that it came from ?Because that bastard had foreknowledge of 911.It was not
an abnormal call.Your negligence was criminal.You ought to be in jail for dereliction of duty, Mayor
Brown.Americans overseas and made
