In the link above and the link below what do you feel is the connection ?
16 And he FORCES all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, so that he could give them a mark upon their right hand, or upon their forehead:
17 And so that no one would be able to buy or sell, accept the one who had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is the wisdom. the one who has understanding must count the number of the beast: for it is a number of mankind; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. Revelation 13

DYING CIA AGENT CLAIMS HE ASSASSINATED MARILYN MONROE, AND 36 MORE TARGETS 34.3K Normand Hodges swears he remembers vividly, each of the assassinations he committed for the CIA.
 He claims that all 37 of the murders he committed on the American soil, were ordered by his commanding officer, Major James “Jimmy” Hayworth. (Photo via World News Daily) Dying CIA officer Normand Hodges claims he assassinated 37 people, including Marilyn Monroe. 
The 78-year-old said he worked for the CIA for 41 years as an operative. He also admitted to acting as a hitman for the governmental agency. Normand Hodges is slowly dying. 
The retired CIA officer confessed to committing the assassinations during his stay at Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, in Norfolk, Virginia, according to a World News Daily report. Hodges was trained in martial arts and as a sniper. 
However, the former CIA agent said he is well versed in using explosives and poisons. 
MARILYN MONROE'S DEATH CONSPIRACY 
According to Hodges, Marilyn Monroe was the only woman he ever assassinated. Hodges said Marilyn “had to die.” Monroe had to be eliminated because the famed actress had become a “threat for the security of the country.” RELATED ARTICLES Top secret CIA poison dart gun 'gives targets deadly HEART ATTACKS' Rumor: Kim Jong Un Assassinated Early Friday Morning Your News Wire reported a comment made by Normand Hodges regarding Marilyn Monroe’s death. 
“We had evidence that Marilyn Monroe had not only slept with Kennedy, but also with Fidel Castro. My commanding officer, Jimmy Hayworth, told me that she had to die, and that it had to look like a suicide or an overdose. 
I had never killed a woman before, but I obeyed orders … I did it for America! She could have transmitted strategic information to the communists, and we couldn’t allow that! She had to die! I just did what I had to do!” MARILYN MONROE DIED AT HOME Marilyn Monroe died at home in her bedroom on August 5, 1962 between midnight and 1:00 AM. Hodges said that, while Marilyn was asleep, he snuck into her bedroom and injected the Hollywood actress with a huge dose of the barbiturate, Nembutal, combined with a powerful sedative known as chloral hydrate. Hodges said he and four other CIA operatives carried out political assassinations across the country. 
According to Normand, the majority of the victims were union leaders, political activists, and journalists. 
However, he confessed that some scientists and artists, whose thoughts and actions threatened the interests of the United States, were also on the hit list. WAS THE CIA INVOLVED IN MONROE'S DEATH? 
Four of the CIA operatives that worked in conjunction with Hodges are now dead or missing. In 2011, Normand’s commanding officer, Major James Hayworth, died of a heart attack. 
Two other CIA assassins are also dead, and the last one, Captain Keith McInnis, is presumed dead after being reported missing in action in 1968. The FBI is not taking Normand Hodges’ confessions lightly. They have placed the former CIA agent under custody and are conducting an investigation. 
However, as one might assume, very little documentation is available pertaining to such clandestine operations, including the death of Marilyn Monroe ( via inquisitr.com ).

Former MI5 officer sparks outrage claiming Paris terror strikes were 'inside job not ISIS'
A FORMER British spy has sparked outrage after claiming the Paris terror attacks were an "inside job" and not carried out by Islamic State (ISIS).
David Shayler (inset) claimed Paris attacks were an
David Shayler, 49, has released a video on YouTube claiming there is "much evidence" that jihadis were not behind the atrocities which left 130 people dead in the French capital.

The former MI5 officer instead claimed "dark forces" linked to western intelligence services were behind the attacks on November 13.
Several years before Edward Snowden left the US National Security Agency (NSA) in 2013 and leaked confidential details of its spying techniques to the press in, Mr Shayler resigned from MI5 after five years working there in 1996.
He then leaked a series of details about MI5 operations, including claims MI6 was involved in a February 1996 failed assassination of former Libyan dictator Colonel Gaddafi.
He also claimed the 1993 Bishopsgate and 1994 Israeli Embassy bombings were known to the intelligence services in advance of being carried out and could have been prevented.
After leaking details to the Mail on Sunday in 1997, he fled to Utrecht in the Netherlands and later France, where he spent two years from 1998 to 2000 living in Boulevard Voltaire, where the Bataclan Theatre - the scene of the worst atrocity of the day took place, according to his video.
He said: "I think there is some dark design in the pattern of the attacks that took place in Paris on Friday, November 13.

Operation Gladio was the codename for a clandestine NATO operation in Italy during the Cold War to prepare for and carry out armed resistance there in the event of a Warsaw Pact invasion and conquest. 
Claims that alleged terrorist attacks in Italy during the cold war were actually carried out by secret NATO officers have been subject to parliamentary inquiries in Switzerland and Belgium.
Mr Shayler even incredibly suggested in his video that the two-hour siege by French police in the wake of the attacks had been staged, saying there was little footage posted to social media.

Since his leaks to the press, the former spook went on to become a some-times cross dresser and made more and more outlandish claims, including that he is a reincarnation of Jesus Christ.
In fact, he made the claims in a video called "Shayler the Christ speaks to the Nation" and declared that all four attack sites had been his former haunts.
He went on to make the even more staggering claim that the sites were chosen because of his former residence there, saying a cross between them centred on his former flat.
He said: "Did they deliberately plan to hit those places to map out over Parsi a cross that would pass over where I used to live…to scare me.

But, alarmingly, he is not alone in his staggering allegation about the Paris terror strikes, with several conspiracy theory websites pedalling similar claims of them being an inside job.
A number of people have posted online that they agree with the crack pot theories.
But many others are appalled at the suggestions.
One poster, calling themselves C Breezy, wrote in response to the claims on activistpost.com: "Don't even bother attempting to reason with these conspiracy theorists… who can't wrap their heads around the fact that there ARE outside forces targeting the West. 
"They will never believe any official story because they're so desperate for this inside job nonsense to be true. Sad cases."

 Russia Of Flooding Europe With Migrants


15911.1

EU Commissioner Accuses Russia Of Flooding Europe With Migrants In Deliberate Plot To Destabilise Continent
Flooding Europe With MigrantsCORNELIUS POPPE/AFP/Getty Images
by OLIVER JJ LANE27 Feb 2016552
The European Union’s (EU) Enlargement Commissioner has claimed Russia is working to destabilise the continent by flooding it with migrants from Tajikistan and Turkmenistan.
Speaking in an interview with Germany’s Zeit, EU Enlargement Commissioner Johannes Hahn articulated his view that it was “no coincidence” that refugees were suddenly appearing on Europe’s northern borders from the Russian Federation, and hinted at a hidden plan to destroy Europe.
Mr. Hahn, who has the responsibility of pushing the European Union further east into what could be considered the Russian sphere of influence, remarked: “We have observed in northern Europe a new phenomenon. More and more refugees [are coming] from Russia to Finland and Norway”.
Despite acknowledging the actual volume of refugees arriving from Russia was insignificant, Mr. Hahn said he suspected a conspiracy where refugees from central Asia were being used unwittingly to further political goals. He explained: “The numbers are not so high. Disturbingly, however, are the political signals that stand behind it. It is no coincidence this happening now”.
Mr. Hahn said these particular refugees, Tajiks and Turkmens, had lived in Russia for many years but were suddenly being passed on now, and they had probably received assistance to make it to the Norwegian and Finnish borders. When asked by the paper whether he was indeed inferring that Russia was deliberately dumping migrants on Europe to exacerbate the migrant crisis, Mr. Hahn said “it is striking that this should happen just at the moment where the EU is already under severe pressure”.
Despite Mr. Hahn’s claims, Norway is not a member of the European Union, even though it is of the Schengen free-travel zone.
Apparently pre-empting the EU commissioner’s comments, Russian ambassador to the European Union Vladimir Chizov spoke in an interview with Euractive and denied the suggestion that Russia wanted to see the EU weakened.
Responding to the accusation that Russia was clandestinely campaigning for Britain to leave the EU, and thus see the continental power bloc less potent he remarked: “No. I wonder why people think that Russia would want to destabilise the EU, or to break it up. That has never been the aim of Russian foreign policy.
“Actually we’ve always said, and I have personally said more than once, that we want to see the EU as a substantial pole of influence and power in this multipolar world of ours, to have a coherent position on various issues and of course to act independently. Which is not always the case today”.
The border between Norway and Russia has been the scene of some disagreement in recent months, as the Norwegian authorities grew increasingly reluctant to accept migrants and attempted to send them back. Russia in turn refused to accept them, and a situation arose where a number of migrants were left in limbo, unable to enter either nation.

Scientists Ponder the Prospect of Contagious Cancer
 George Johnson
For all its peculiar horror, cancer comes with a saving grace. If nothing else can stop a tumor’s mad evolution, the cancer ultimately dies with its host. Everything the malignant cells have learned about outwitting the patient’s defenses — and those of the oncologists — is erased. The next case of cancer, in another victim, must start anew.

Imagine if instead, cancer cells had the ability to press on to another body. A cancer like that would have the power to metastasize not just from organ to organ, but from person to person, evolving deadly new skills along the way.

While there is no sign of an imminent threat, several recent papers suggest that the eventual emergence of a contagious human cancer is in the realm of medical possibility. This would not be a disease, like cervical cancer, that is set off by the spread of viruses, but rather one in which cancer cells actually travel from one person to another and thrive in their new location.

So far this is known to have happened only under the most unusual circumstances. A 19-year-old laboratory worker who pricked herself with a syringe of colon cancer cells developed a tumor in her hand. A surgeon acquired a cancer from his patient after accidentally cutting himself during an operation. There are also cases of malignant cells being transferred from one person to another through an organ transplant or from a woman to her fetus.

On each of these occasions, the malignancy went no further. The only known cancers that continue to move from body to body, evading the immune system, have been found in other animals. In laboratory experiments, for instance, cancer cells have been transferred by mosquitoes from one hamster to another. And so far, three kinds of contagious cancers have been discovered in the wild — in dogs, Tasmanian devils and, most recently, in soft shell clams.

The oldest known example is a cancer that spreads between dogs during sexual intercourse — not as a side effect of a viral or bacterial infection, but rather through direct conveyance of cancer cells. The state of the research is described in a review, “The Cancer Which Survived,” published last year by Andrea Strakova and Elizabeth P. Murchison of the University of Cambridge.

The condition, canine transmissible venereal tumor disease, is believed to have sprung into existence 11,000 years ago — as a single cell in a single dog — and has been circulating ever since. (Why did this happen in dogs and not, say, cats? Perhaps because of what the authors demurely call the dogs’ “long-lasting coital tie” — the half an hour or so that a male and female are locked in intercourse, tearing genital tissues and providing the cancer cells with a leisurely crossing.)

Normally a cancer evolves in a single body over the course of years or decades, accumulating the mutations that drive it to power. But to have survived for millenniums, researchers have proposed, canine cancer cells may have developed mechanisms — like those in healthy cells — to repair and stabilize their own malignant genomes.

Early on, cancer cells typically flourish by disabling DNA repair and ramping up the mutational frenzy. Somewhere along the way, the age-old canine cells may have reinvented the device to extend their own longevity. There is also speculation that this cancer may have learned to somehow modify canine sexual behavior in ways that promote the disease’s spread and survival.

The second kind of contagious cancer was discovered in the mid-1990s in Tasmanian devils, which spread malignant cells as they try to tear off one another’s faces. Though it may be hard to sympathize, devil facial tumor disease threatens the creatures with extinction.

With so few examples, transmissible cancer has been easy to dismiss as an aberration. But in December, scientists at the Universities of Tasmania and Cambridge reported in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that Tasmanian devils are passing around another kind of cancer — genetically distinct from the first. It’s weird enough that one such cancer would arise in the species. What are the chances that there would be two?

One theory is that the animals are unusually vulnerable. Driven so close to extinction — by climate change, perhaps, or human predators — the species is lacking in genetic diversity. The cells of another devil injected through a vicious wound may seem so familiar that they are ignored by the recipient’s immune system. If some of the cells carry the mutations for the facial cancer, they might be free to flourish and develop into a new tumor.

But the scientists also proposed a more disturbing explanation: that the emergence of contagious cancer may not be so rare after all. “The possibility,” they wrote, “warrants further investigation of the risk that such diseases could arise in humans.”

Cancer has probably existed ever since our first multicellular ancestors appeared on Earth hundreds of millions of years ago. The life spans of even the longest-lived animals may be just too brief for cancers to easily evolve the ability to leap to another body. Otherwise, contagious cancer would be everywhere.

For now, at least, it remains a curiosity. Consider the case of a 41-year-old man in Medellin, Colombia, who was examined by doctors in 2013 because of fatigue, fever and weight loss. His lymph nodes were clogged with cancer cells that had also spread to his lungs and liver.

Yet the cells looked far too small and simple to be human. “This case posed a diagnostic conundrum,” the doctors wrote in November in The New England Journal of Medicine.

The solution to the puzzle came when the man was also found to be harboring a tapeworm called Hymenolepis nana. Further analysis concluded that the cancer cells had originated in the parasite and then metastasized through the man’s body.

There is no reason to think that tapeworm cancer is about to become a threat to public health. The patient’s immune system had been compromised by H.I.V., and he died several months later.

But nature is infinite in its surprises.

Correction: February 22, 2016 
An earlier version of this article misstated one of the animals in which contagious cancer has been discovered in the wild. It was in soft shell clams, not crabs.
A version of this article appears in print on February 23, 2016, on page D3 of the New York edition with the headline: Scientists Ponder Contagious Cancer.
