Richard Gross, of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, calculates that last week's earthquake off Japan's coast may have shortened the length of Earth's days by about 1.26 microseconds and shifted its axis by about 6.5 inches. Gross describes the findings and explains how changes in Earth's land masses affect the way it spins.

No real data?
Really?
Everything I listed can be verified, go verify it, don't just dismiss it, that's just closed minded.
The American Museum of Natural History's Neil deGrasse Tyson has updated his personal website with the 2011 Manhattanhenge dates, along with some poetic—albeit apocalyptic—thoughts.
Back in March the American Museum of Natural History's gave us a heads up as to the Manhattanhenge dates this year, but since then the July dates have shifted! He's now updated his own notes to say: "July dates shifted from earlier posting by one day to better represent the actual New Jersey horizon visible from looking west across Manhattan." They will be one day later than previously reported with a half sun on the grid on July 13th at 8:25 p.m., and a full sun on the grid on July 12th at 8:25 p.m.

Nice thread Chad
Aldough i don't believe in the whole 'sun is out of place' banter that is flowing around i do have a question.
Weren't there report of the sun rising up 2 days early? What was the cause of that?
I seem to remember something about it.
Was this just simple misjudgement?
ETA: it was in greenland and 2 days

And just in all fairness OP didn't post any scientific data or real data for that matter.
Again i'm not saying his not correct, But to prove your point I would have loved some actual numbers
and real data.
The photos from Manhattan have no time stamp and are obviously taken from different angles and heights
If these where photos on a biped that didn't move for a whole year that would be a total different thing.
As said before because the earthquake in japan the earth did move thus when posting actual numbers its only obvious the sun would have moved in correlation to the earth. neglect-able but still moved.

Errr... Not to deprive him of his stars and flags,but i just pretty much debunked him.
Again there was nothing factual about that post, just a gold level contributor saying his mind.
