Huffington Post: Rielle Hunter's Past Filled With Tragedy, Scandal

Posted: 13 May 2012 09:38 AM PDT

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Rielle Hunter's life had a lurid, supermarket-tabloid quality to it – full of deception, betrayal, reckless behavior and broken dreams – well before she became a party to one of the biggest lies in recent American political history.

Her father had her beloved show horse killed for insurance money. An ex-boyfriend used her as his muse for the "cocaine-addled, sexually voracious" narrator of one of his novels. She went to Hollywood to become a star and left about a decade later with only a few bit parts.

Huffington Post: Tiger Woods LIVE Scores From The Players Championship, Round 4

Posted: 13 May 2012 09:39 AM PDT

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- While this won't settle well with Tiger Woods, but at least he made it to the weekend.

Sitting 10 shots off the pace, Tiger will either need to pull off something special or put together a solid round and try to get into the top 10, an accomplishment considering the lack of success he has had at the Players Championship.

Tiger has put together rounds of 74-68-72, and says he hit the ball beautifully in the latter, but just couldn't get anything to drop on the greens.

Huffington Post: 'The Avengers': $1 Billion In Global Box Office After Record Second Weekend

Posted: 13 May 2012 09:43 AM PDT

Hulk keeps smashing box office records.

According to estimates from Disney, "Marvel's The Avengers" earned $103.2 million at the domestic box office over Mother's Day weekend, plus an additional $95.4 million from international territories. After just 19 days of release, "The Avengers" has totaled $1 billion in global grosses, tying "Avatar" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2" as the fastest films to reach that lofty sum.

Of course, "The Avengers" has plenty of records to call its own. The $103.2 million in second weekend ticket sales is the biggest ever, blowing away the $75.6 million earned by "Avatar" during its second weekend in 2009. At $373.1 million, Marvel's superhero supergroup team-up is also the fastest film to cross $300 million at the domestic box office, doing so in just nine days of release. "Marvel's The Avengers" is currently sitting at 18th place on the all time domestic box office chart, just behind "Spider-Man 2." It's expected to jump into the top ten by next weekend.

Huffington Post: San Onofre Power Plant's Plan Falls Short: 'There Is No Timeline On Nuclear Safety'

Posted: 13 May 2012 09:46 AM PDT

LOS ANGELES -- A $670 million overhaul at California's San Onofre nuclear plant was expressly intended to avoid the types of ailments that have sidelined its twin reactors.

An overriding goal for a team of engineers who worked on steam generators installed at the plant in 2009 and 2010 was minimizing wear and tear on the nearly 40,000 tubes that carry radioactive water inside the massive machines. Customized design and manufacturing promised years of reliable service for a plant that can power 1.4 million homes in Southern California.
