RALEIGH, North Carolina (AP) -- A federal grand jury indicted two-time presidential candidate John Edwards on Friday over $925,000 spent to keep his mistress and their baby in hiding during the peak of his 2008 campaign for the White House.

Cadillac’s CTS-V Coupe is already a highly respected, high-performance car – but for John Hennessey it was nothing more than a mere starting point for his latest creation: the 2012 Hennessey Twin Turbo V1000 CTS-V Coupe.

Paul Ryan’s $350 Wine v. John Edwards’ $400 Haircut. I think what really offends them is that he paid for the wine with his own money. It's kind of like how corporate jets are evil, but flying around on taxpayer-provided Gulfstreams is fine. Whether Ryan spends HIS MONEY on fine wine or lights dollar bills on fire, it's really none of anyone's business. What's done with the taxpayers' dollars, on the other hand, should be of concern to all of us.

Ever since Digg launched its new site design, it's been plagued with all kinds of trouble, not least of which is that it keeps going down. The problems with the new architecture are so bad that VP of Engineering John Quinn is now gone, we've confirmed with sources close to Digg. In a Diggnation video today, CEO Kevin Rose explained some of the technical issues the site is dealing with and why it can't simply roll back to the previous architecture. The new version of Digg, v4, is based on a distributed database called Cassandra, which replaced the MySQL database the site ran on before. Cassandra is very advanced, but still too experimental. It is supposed to be faster and scale better, but it is still not battle-tested for a site the size of Digg. Every engineer at Digg is currently just trying to keep the site up and running.
