Link didn't work for me. Are you talking about the Earth though, because its orbit elliptical so kind of has to be.

Of course. The Earth is always accelerating towards the Sun. That's how gravity works. And circular motion.

After that earthquake in South-East Asia, Scientists said the mass/ or density of the earth changed, and now the earth is rotating a few millionths of a second faster. can't remember the source right now though.

i heard also that the earth tipped 2 degrees on its axis because of that earthquake, but i'm not sure if this can be confirmed or not.

the thing is, the earth goes through these natural changes all the time, it always has. in order for it to be here shit like that has to happen... its simply order within chaos, good within bad.
and about the 2 degree tilt, it might be true because the earth not only has a rotation on an axis, and a tilt, but also a "wobble" to it as it rotates. so due to the "pattern" of wobbling its possible there is a tad of a difference in the tilt right now compared to what we measured before.
and this is kinda off topic, but a couple months ago NASA prooved that Einstien's theory that every body of mass pulls space and time around it with it was true. Scientists at NASA prooved that as the Earth spins, it pulls space and time with it, like a bowlingball in molasses. I think thats cool, for a whole shit load of reasons
