Title: A functional AJAX Data Store Example now using HackerNews instead of Digg

Solving the problem of Digg not working by using HackerNews API provided by ThriftDB.

Notes:
* disabled sorting (API doesn't support it properly) - but this isn't a highlight of this specific example
* implemented running multiple requests in parallel, as well as multiple indicators
* Working around the limitations of ThriftDB API
* maximum number of rows returned is 1000
* maximum individual query is 100
* ability to run multiple requests in parallel
* known problem: if a request fails, the "buffering" indicator won't go away
* adaptive spacing for individual rows would help
