Right, it's simply in perception. Nothing, including light, is moving faster than the speed of light. The gap between individual photons increases, but those photons are still reaching the moon at the same speed. Our brain fills in the details to assume unbroken movement from one place to the other, just like how TV animation works.
On a TV, if you illuminate one pixel then illuminate the one next to it, it appears as though the image is moving. If you do the same thing but skip to every second or third pixel, the image appears to be moving faster. Every tenth pixel, the image shoots across the screen. Nothing is actually changing speed; we just see the gap increase.
@graymccarty No kidding. - The iPad image is an inauthentic mockup. - The iPod image is an iPod mini, not an original iPod. (The image is actually taken straight from the Wikipedia article on the iPod mini.) - The iBook image is not the original, colorful clamshell iBook.
As far as I know, that is an original iPhone, though.
A town mayor is one thing, but this has happened as high as the U.S. Senate. In 2000, former Governor of Missouri Mel Carnahan (D) was elected to the U.S. Senate weeks after he died in a plane crash. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mel_Carnahan#2000_Senate_election_and_death
Honestly, when I first read this headline, I got the impression that Anderson Cooper assisted some kid in the act of looting. A.C. doesn't help steal anything at all. LAME. lol
Funny they should mention renaissance, since I thought Mondelez(a) sounds like Mona Lisa.
