do i get the fire extinguisher. is it a big fire can i put it out. >> it would cover the area the size of a table. anything bigger or high are than your head it's too big for you to put out with an extinguisher. wait until everybody is out. it's best to work in pairs. make sure you are the last one out of the room. do not lock it. avoid smoke and gases. cover your mouth and nose with a towel or sheet or dry cloth. if you have a jacket, if there is a flame on the way out put clothes on or wrap yourself in a blanket the layer of clothing will give you protection. have an emergency plan for earthquakes and fires. elevators, a safe place to be? always take it is stairs. when you go down the stairs hang on to the hand rails you will have people bump into you. pay attention to the floors, you have fourth floor, third floor, in case the lights go out you know you have 3 more floors. people think, i will go to the bottom until it stops. let's say you have 2 floors of parking you are under ground. sometimes it's a fire escap

the fire has been extinguished. i will show you a traffic maps of that you can see the location at the north and a possible curve. traffic heading into a san francisco on the bay bridge is being diverted at fifth street and ninth street and the on ramp to the skyway and 101 are completely shut take potrero to army or cesar chavez to get back on to 101 there. again, we mentioned that the upper deck of the bay bridge is likely to be affected because traffic heading towards the city will be forced to exit. it does not appear as though we will have this real end anytime soon. again, this is the scene of the closure. the problem is, they still have to correct the tanker that is right now across all lanes. let's check some other traffic for you, sinfully this appears to be the only hot spot that we are contending with. >>erica: sometimes we do not have any other hot spots--we do not have any other hot spots around the bay area. there are no metering lights on the bay bridge but again, you may want to avoid the bay bridge

to contain that fire inside of me, it both felt like a huge relief and like it had the power to extinguish that fire, which was terrifying. no one ever told me before i started taking zyprexa or lithium, that if i stopped it, i would have severe withdrawal and psychotic symptoms. but it actually turns out that a lot of these medications, when you stop taking them, trigger in you the withdrawal symptoms that look like the craziness. a lot of people get put on meds at one point in their life, and then when they try to go off them, they're like, "oh my god, i really am insane." there's this fundamental impulse either toward suppressing our traumas by medicating the symptoms of them away, or "facing down our traumas," by delving straight into the teeth of whatever our childhood beasts are. there's not a lot of focus on what is in the middle, what does it mean to acknowledge the way that the past has been a formative thing in our lives, without reliving the past over and over. mental illness does not exist in a vacuum; saying that it is nothing but a biological brain disorder lets everybody off
