News list template should use pagination info from the context #377

The current News list view would paginate results (10 items per page). We may want to increase the page size, and use the pagination information in the template (cc @gregnewman).

I hate pagination. But I might also hate the consequences of not having pagination. Although I am not quite sure what those are.

Here's one thing that really sucks:

GitHub changed the commits page to be paginated and have only "Back" and "Next." It used to show page numbers, and you used to be able to go directly to any page by editing a query parameter at the back of the URL. But now you can't, and going to the very beginning of a repository's commit history is PAINFUL.

I don't know how much of this is relevant to News pagination if at all, but GItHub's change traumatized me...
