Chile Earthquake May Have Shortened The Earth Day
Earthquake knocked earth's axis off by 3 inches, reducing the length of a day by some 1.26 milliseconds. Do I get to leave work early now?

Let the baby roast rest for an hour, then have your guests help pull the meat. Everyone will have fond memories of the event to cherish FOREVER!

Just remember to give yourself plenty of time for cooking (a field-dressed baby can weigh upwards of 30 lbs and take a FULL DAY to cook!)

Do you keep them penned up like veal and infuse them with formula or mother's milk? I hear formula fed babies have a medicinal taste. I don't want that for the party.... I would be a terrible host.

No need to leave the skin on. A toddler's got a lot of good marbling.

Maybe its because I'm a 'big picture' person, but I really don't see what the big deal is. 1.2 miliseconds is about as close to nothing as possible.

One Earth day is about 24 hours long. Over the course of a year, the length of a day normally changes gradually by one millisecond. It increases in the winter, when the Earth rotates more slowly, and decreases in the summer, Gross has said in the past.
I call Bullmeep. When it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere, it is summer down here in the deepest South.

I remembered reading about this a while back, found the story again.
'It turns out that during the Northern Hemisphere winter, the winds - which are predominantly west to east - are stronger,' Salstein said. The more forceful winds double the angular momentum of the atmosphere. Angular momentum is a conserved quantity in nature - the example usually given is the spinning ice skater conserving angular momentum by speeding up when she brings her arms in. In this case, the whole system - comprised of the spinning Earth and swirling atmosphere - adjusts to the blustery winter months by slowing down the solid Earth's rotation. This means the days get longer - by a few thousandths of a second. The winter in the Southern Hemisphere does not produce the same increase in wind because the bottom of the world is mostly ocean and the temperature swings are, therefore, not as great.
