A good information on the poles:

Magnetic North Pole Shift Affects Tampa Airport (http://www.aolnews.com/2011/01/07/magnetic-north-pole-shift-affects-tampa-airport/)


Magnetic changes in Earth's core are causing this, possibly due to "a region of rapidly changing magnetism on the core's surface," according to National Geographic.

Normally, magnetic fields don't require adjustments to be made at airports, FAA spokesman Paul Takemoto told FoxNews.com.

"You want to be absolutely precise in your compass heading," Takemoto said. "To make sure the precision is there that we need, you have to make these changes."

Later this month, two other runways at the Tampa airport will also be closed to update the signs to their new designations.

FAA spokeswoman Kathleen Bergen said that airport runway charting relies on accurate geomagnetic information.

When a major airport has to recalibrate and close everything to accomodate changes in the magnet pole shift you know something is up!

Earth lose the North or La terre perd le Nord
This video has Received The 25 th International Festival of Scoop and Journalism 2010, Award for Scientific.

Synopsis: The north magnetic pole, to which all compasses point in the world, constantly moving and reversed cyclically every 250 000 years.
Two geologists, Canadian and French, responsible for measuring its exact position, found during their last mission on the ice that the speed of the magnetic pole had accelerated dramatically, 120 kms instead of 40 km estimated each year an average of 300 meters per day! With paleomagnetism, we know that the magnetic pole moves from north to south, but turning back the last 780 000 years ... Are we on the eve of this great event of reversal of the poles?
