The Antarctic Half of the Global Thermohaline Circulation Is Faltering

As I posted in another blog,,

This is only based on ocean harvesting under present conditions.
If what is being said about global warming is true,,and if enough of the ice poles melt to affect the thermohaline circulation, then this could actually happen much sooner.
It's not a question of will it happen, more a question of when.
It's going to be nasty, for the majority of humans survive on the animal protein from the oceans.

Just released Lanza student ID matches perfectly with DMV photo when flipped.

If we follow what we have been told then the short haired picture is a 'Never before seen" of Adam when he was 16. So altering that photo gives us a 20 year old Lanza released on the same day as the shooting, do you think they made this in a few hours then told everyone it is different? The Frankenstein photo is from AP, the student ID is from CBS. So if CBS has the student ID just coming out now, and AP had the photoshopped one, who gave them the photoshopped one? The police.
