Straight Line of the Day: The Magnetic North Pole is moving toward Siberia. Scientists speculate…
The team of researchers that maintain the World Magnetic Model (WMM) has updated it and released it a year ahead of schedule due to the speed with which the pole is moving. The newly updated model shows the magnetic north pole moving away from Canada and toward Siberia.
The magnetic north pole is the point on the Earth that compasses designate as true north. It is the result of geological processes deep within the planet — molten iron flow creates a magnetic field with poles near the geographic North and South Poles. But unlike the geographic poles, the magnetic poles can move -— and the magnetic north pole has been moving faster in recent years . . .
It is currently not known why the poles drift. Some have suggested it is due to an underground jet stream of sorts. Nor is the mechanism driving them understood. They were only discovered in 1831 -— since that time, both poles have been tracked, and the speed at which they move recorded. The north magnetic pole has traveled 1,400 miles since it was first discovered -— and has changed speed, as well. As recently as 2000, the speed was clocked at 10 km/year. The latest readings show it moving at a brisk 50 km/year.

Too scientific.

that a deeper look into Stripper Poles might provide some useful information.
Ummmm…these are scientist we are talking about. They wouldn’t know a stripper pole if it hit them in the head.
… it’s an indication of the sheer attractiveness of Soviet Communism (Just ask Bernie!)…
The North Pole will soon be replaced by a South Lithuanian.
…it should know better than to start a land agression in Asia.

…its looking for the biggest arse it can find…. It’s a toss up whether it will reach Hillary Clinton or Washington D.C. as a whole first.
it’s true afterall. Santa Claus wears a red suit. He’s a communist.
He also gives away the work done by others.
I’m certain PETA would like a word with him, as well.
Its headed from the big F on the right side of the planet to the big E on the left side.
The big ”E”? It’s the big “W” I tell ya!

WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!
Biologists speculate that there will be a lot of very confused geese during next year’s migration.
Astronomers speculate Errai will replace Polaris as the north star ahead of schedule.
Physicists speculate that all gyroscopes will need to be re-calibrated more often.
Geologists speculate a redistribution of liquid iron within the Earth’s core.
Economists speculate short-term volatility in the iron market.
Cartographers speculate a sharp increase in the number of lost Boy Scouts.
Astrologers speculate your lucky numbers are 8, 23, 45 and 62. (No, that really doesn’t have anything to do with magnetic north shifting, but then, astrology doesn’t really have anything to do with science.)
I’ll have to consult the Auguries on that.
