Stanley Prusiner

The Mist [ RACKETEER INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATIONS US Title 18 ]


We had not seen a single living person since leaving the Federal.

Mrs. Reppler said, «David, try your radio.»

I slapped my forehead in frustration and anger at myself, wondering how I could have been stupid enough to forget the Scout's AM/FM for so long.

«Don't do that,» Mrs. Reppler said curtly. «You can't think of everything. If you try, you will go mad and be of no use at all.»

I got nothing but a shriek of static all the way across the AM band, and the FM yielded nothing but a smooth and ominous silence.

«Does that mean everything's off the air?» Amanda asked. I knew what she was thinking, maybe. We were far enough south now so that we should have been picking up a selection of strong Boston stations — WRKO, WBZ, WMEX But if Boston had gone

«It doesn't mean anything for sure,» I said. «That static on the AM band is pure interference. The mist is having a damping effect on radio signals, too.»

«Are you sure that's all it is?»

«Yes,» I said, not sure at all.

We went south. The mileposts rolled past, counting down from about forty. When we reached Mile 1, we would be at the New Hampshire border. Going on the turnpike was slower; a lot of the drivers hadn't wanted to give up, and there had been rear-end collisions in several places. Several times I had to use the median strip.

At about twenty past one — I was beginning to feel hungry — Billy clutched my arm. «Daddy, what's that? What's that!»

A shadow loomed out of the mist, staining it dark. It was as tall as a cliff and coming right at us. I jammed on the brakes. Amanda, who had been catnapping, was thrown for-ward.

Something came; again, that is all I can say for sure. It may have been the fact that the mist only allowed us to glimpse things briefly, but I think just as likely that there are certain things that your brain simply disallows. There are things of such darkness and horror-just, I suppose, as there are things of such great beauty — that they will not fit through the puny human doors of perception.

It was six-legged, I know that; its skin was slaty gray that mottled to dark brown in places. Those brown patches reminded me absurdly of the liver spots on Mrs. Carmody's hands. Its skin was deeply wrinkled and grooved, and clinging to it were scores, hundreds, of those pinkish «bugs» with the stalk-eyes. I don't know how big it actually was, but it passed directly over us. One of its gray, wrinkled legs smashed down right beside my window, and Mrs. Reppler said later she could not see the underside of its body, although she craned her neck up to look. She saw only two Cyclopean legs going up and up into the mist like living towers until they were lost to sight.

For the moment it was over the Scout I had an impression of something so big that it might have made a blue whale look the size of a trout-in other words, something so big that it defied the imagination. Then it was gone, sending a seismological series of thuds back. It left tracks in the cement of the interstate, tracks so deep I could not see the bottoms. Each single track was nearly big enough to drop the Scout into.

For a moment no one spoke. There was no sound but our breathing and the diminishing thud of that great Thing's passage.

Then Billy said, «Was it a dinosaur, Dad? Like the bird that got into the market?»

«I don't think so. I don't think there was ever an animal that big, Billy. At least not on earth.»

I thought of the Arrowhead Project and wondered again what crazy damned thing they could have been doing up there.

In White House Ceremony, Prusiner Receives National Medal

November 17, 2010


In a White House ceremony led by President Barack Obama, UCSF Nobel laureate Stanley B. Prusiner, MD, today (Nov. 17) will receive the 2009 National Medal of Science, the nation’s highest honor for science and technology.

The event, which will be held at 5:20 p.m. ET (2:20 p.m. PT) in the East Room of the White House, will be carried live by satellite feed and webcast on the White House website.

Prusiner is among 10 recipients of the award. Three other individuals and one team were named as recipients of the National Medal of Technology and Innovation. The ceremony follows a black tie gala held last night at the Ritz Carlton, in Washington, DC, honoring the recipients.

Prusiner, whose training as a neurologist involved seeing patients with devastating neurodegenerative diseases, was awarded the Medal in recognition of his extraordinary contribution to medical science.

In 1997, Prusiner won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery.

US Navy Captain Matthew Yelland - USS Nimitz CVN 68 commanding officer: Black Cloud, you've been doing unauthorized rain dances again.

US Navy lieutenant commander Black Cloud - USS Nimitz CVN 68 meteorological officer: Take a look at the scope, sir. The water temperature's down five degrees and even the barometer's giving improper readings. It should be down, and it's way up.

US Navy Captain Matthew Yelland - USS Nimitz CVN 68 commanding officer: What the hell is that?

US Navy lieutenant commander Black Cloud - USS Nimitz CVN 68 meteorological officer: It seems to have a cycle, sir. One run it's there, the next one is clear. One run it's there, the next one is clear. I've never seen anything like it.

US Navy Captain Matthew Yelland - USS Nimitz CVN 68 commanding officer: [ intership television broadcast ] This is the captain. I'm speaking to every man aboard this ship. In the past few hours, many things have happened but rumors of nuclear attacks and a third world war are totally untrue. We have no reason to believe that any aggression has been taken against our homes and families. I believe that what we have stumbled across is not man-made but a phenomena of nature. One that can't be explained. Now, this phenomena is a storm which the Nimitz went through less than 18 hours ago. This storm has had some effect on time as we know it. It created a portal, a door

Prion

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


A prion is an infectious agent composed of protein in a misfolded form. This is in contrast to all other known infectious agents (virus/bacteria/fungus/parasite) which must contain nucleic acids (either DNA, RNA, or both). The word prion, coined in 1982 by Stanley B. Prusiner, is derived from the words protein and infection. Prions are responsible for the transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in a variety of mammals, including bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, also known as "mad cow disease") in cattle and Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. All known prion diseases affect the structure of the brain or other neural tissue and all are currently untreatable and universally fatal.
