Oak Ridge National Laboratory's Cultural And Media Influences on Opinion (CAMIO) Model of Group Behavior

I have not been able to find much information on The Cultural And Media Influences on Opinion (CAMIO) Model of Group Behavior. The only official documentation I was able to find is the attached picture above. Nevertheless, it appears to be a technology straight out of The Matrix and a technology that can be used to study and simulate the political mood of certain demographics. If anyone has any additional information on CAMIO, please feel free to post the links to the information in the comments. Thank you.

The Cultural And Media Influences on Opinion (CAMIO) simulation of group behavior is an agent-based computational model that can be used to examine the opinions, issue stances, political allegiances or other judgments held by members of a particular group within a society and examine how these opinions change or can be influenced to change over time. Of particular interest is changes caused by an external organization such as the international or internal media. CAMIO is a model of how small groups of acquaintances form from larger populations and change over time; how opinions spread throughout the groups; how an outside entity, such as the media, can influence the spread of such opinion; and how this population of small groups may become polarized or unified around a particular issue.

What Is the Purpose of CAESER III Supercomputer?


The commentator in the above video equates CAESAR III to fictional Skynet from the Terminator movies. However, I have not been able to confirm that CAESAR III is an all-knowing A.I. or if CAESAR is the only such A.I. program being used by our military. There actually appear to be numerous other programs that are currently in use along with CAESAR III.

CAESAR III: A tool for Designing, Analyzing, and Evaluating Command and Control organizations and Processes - Based on the theory and algorithms of Colored Petri nets. In addition to modeling monocultural organizations (friendly or adversarial), it can be used to model coalitions.

The Kick Them All Out Project & Fire Congress Campaign Present "America Rising (Remix)"


I typically do not promote on this site when I link to source material. Usually, I prefer to link to various news and scientific sources as opposed to commercial sources. However, there are cases where I go against the grain, especially when I see something that excites me. And after watching the above video I was excited, because I agree with the message.

All incumbents should be voted out this election cycle!

This is a remake of the popular video America Rising, a version that voices the truth of things rather than the mindless partisan nonsense of the original version, like the bad, bad, democrats are the problem. Both parties are equally responsible for the mess we find ourselves in.

Disclaimer: I have no idea what the original America Rising was/is all about. I will check out the original project one day soon, but I do not have time to research the original project right now.

Globalists Push World Transaction Tax at United Nations Summit

I wonder if the below article from the good ol' folks over at Prison Planet/Info Wars about a proposed global tax ties into the article I posted back in the early summer. The reason I wonder is because I have been getting a lot of web traffic recently for that article. See: FLASHBACK: Rep. Chaka Fattah Introduces H.R. 4646 Bill That Will Impose One Percent (1%) Tax on All Financial Transactions.

Globalists Push World Transaction Tax At UN Summit

Globalists representing 60 nations will meet at the UN this coming week to push a tax on world financial transactions in the name of solving poverty and climate change, formally launching a massive program to bankrupt the middle class and enrich the coffers of global government.

“Spearheaded by European Union countries, the so-called “innovative financing” proposal envisages a tax of 0.005 percent (five cents per $1,000), which experts estimate could produce more than $30 billion a year worldwide for priority causes,” reports CNS News.

As Ira Stoll, editor of FutureCapitalism.com, points out, new taxes always start off small so as to not be resisted by the people forced to pay them, and are then always gradually increased.

“When people suggest taxes, they always start out ‘small,” said Stoll.

“But once the door is opened to the idea of ‘global taxes,’ you can bet they won’t end small. Never mind all the issues about whether development aid actually helps poor countries or just winds up empowering corrupt local dictators and their cronies.”

The call for a global transaction tax arrives in the aftermath of a leaked UN blueprint which outlined how elitists plan to re-brand global warming in an effort to dismantle the middle class by instituting a “global redistribution of wealth” via carbon taxes.

The aim is to “limit and redirect the aspirations for a better life of rising middle classes around the world,” in other words to reduce the standard of living for the middle classes in Western Europe and America.

However, as was uncovered during the Copenhagen summit, the program of “global redistribution of wealth” and transaction taxes largely centers around looting the wealth of the middle classes in richer countries and then using that money to bankroll the construction of world government. As the leaked “Danish text” revealed, the money generated from consumption taxes will go directly to the World Bank, not to developing countries to lower carbon emissions or alleviate poverty.

Under the terms of this proposal, poorer countries will not simply be handed the money pillaged from richer nations, instead they will be forced to accept “green loans” in the name of combating climate change, a policy that would land the already financially devastated third world with even more debt, payable to globalist institutions such as the IMF.

Even if you accept that global institutions who have proven to be completely corrupt time and time again should be empowered to steal from the rich and give to the poor, these proposals don’t even do that. This is all about bankrolling the expansion of world government and creating a giant slush fund that will be used to coerce smaller countries into allowing themselves to be ruled and regulated by a global bureaucracy funded by increasingly destitute taxpayers in the west.

We warned that globalists were embarking on a global financial transaction tax back in December when Lord Monckton obtained the draft proposals for the Copenhagen summit.

As Monckton revealed at the time, the end game is to, “Tax the American economy to the extent of 2 percent GDP, to impose a further tax of 2 percent on every financial transaction….and to close down effectively the economies of the west, transfer your jobs to third world countries.”

The tax, which was vehemently supported by President Obama in Copenhagen, will cost American families already laboring under the greatest financial collapse for generations at least $3,000 a year just for starters.

There can no longer be any denial that a world government is preparing to plunder the west by enforcing a myriad of different global consumption taxes, from financial levies to a carbon tax which will do absolutely nothing to address real environmental issues and will be used solely to expand the power of the World Bank, the IMF and the United Nations.

Allied to the global tax assault is the newly published IMF strategy document that calls for the implementation of a global currency, called the “bancor”, which will be pushed through by means of draconian regulatory measures that eviscerate sovereignty rights of nation states and hand complete economic control of the global economy over to a tiny and despotic ruling elite. The “bancor” will hand the IMF the power to manipulate exchange rates and determine the eventual collapse of the dollar.

Massive resistance must be focused around rejecting the institution of global taxes paid to the United Nations and the formation of a global currency otherwise the last tattered shreds of American sovereignty will be flushed down the toilet for good.

Will Last Minute Airline Flights Be Illegal Beginning November 1, 2010?

As a person who has bought many plane tickets at the last minute, it appears that this practice will no longer be allowed in the coming weeks. American Airlines has released the latest TSA Secure Flight Information and it states that TSA mandated Secure Flight Passenger Data is required at least seventy-two (72) hours before departure.

As a result of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) mandate, beginning November 1, all passengers will be required to have Secure Flight Passenger Data (SFPD) in their reservation at least 72 hours prior to departure. This is the next phase in a program that was initiated by the TSA in 2009...


If you have reservations for travel on or after November 1, 2010, you need to provide your SFPD at least 72 hours prior to departure. You will not be able to travel without the TSA mandated Secure Flight Passenger Data in your reservation.
