>> First the National Enquirer exposed 2008 Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards to be a fraud and an adulterer while his wife had cancer. Now Edwards is indicted by a grand jury for using unreported campaign money to hush up the affair. Never trust someone with such perfect politician hair. (AP)

>> Rocket fire hit the presidential palace in Yemen today, “lightly wounding” President Ali Abdullah Saleh and seriously harming the deputy prime minister. Furthermore, its capital city could be the first ever to run out of water. Frank Sinatra could have never lived there. (AP, Newser)

>> The Japanese tsunami and the Midwestern tornadoes all affected jobs, with the unemployment rate rising to 9,1 percent and only 54,000 jobs added to the economy. Guess I’ll be a blogger for a little longer. (the New York Times)

>> Earlier this week, New York Rep. Anthony Weiner came under fire when a hacker tweeted a picture of his erect penis in briefs from his official account. Weiner said he wasn’t sure if it was his penis and has not called authorities. Now, Ohio House Speaker William Batchelder’s Twitter was hacked, sending out tweets of support for liberal causes. At least it wasn’t Batchelder’s wiener! (CNN, Columbus-Dispatch)

>> And finally: Assisted-suicide poster boy Jack Kevorkian died today in a Michigan hospital. He was 83. Kevorkian helped over 100 terminally ill people painlessly kill themselves before serving eight years in prison for second-degree murder. And he died without any help. (CNN)
