Huffington Post: Tiger Woods LIVE UPDATES During Round 4 At Barclays

Posted: 26 Aug 2012 09:16 AM PDT

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. -- With four three-putts, Tiger Woods put himself behind the proverbial 8-ball for Sunday's final round at the Barclays at Bethpage Black.

Woods will start the round six shots back of Sergio Garcia and will face tough greens and hole locations on a course that is starting to reflect its difficulty that the world saw at the 2002 and 2009 U.S. Opens.

Woods will tee off at 12:20 p.m. EDT with David Hearn, just under 80 minutes prior to the final pairing of Garcia and Nick Watney (8 under).

Huffington Post: Obama And Romney's Campaign Donations Visualized [INFOGRAPHIC]

Posted: 26 Aug 2012 09:20 AM PDT

It's an uncomfortable truth, but one you've got to face: In presidential elections, the candidate with the most cash usually wins.

Now thanks to economic infographic site Demonocracy.info and graphic artist Oto Godfrey, we can actually see how this year's campaign cash literally stacks up. As you can see, it appears President Obama is currently winning the cash race, with around $307 million, compared to candidates Mitt Romney with $157 million, and Ron Paul with $41 million.

Romney may be catching up. After the Supreme Court's decision to uphold the Affordable Care Act, his campaign received a major boon, pulling in his biggest small-donor haul to date over the course of a 24-hour period.

Huffington Post: Jeb Bush: It's Time For Obama 'To Move On' From Blaming George W. Bush

Posted: 26 Aug 2012 09:20 AM PDT

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) said Sunday that it's time for President Barack Obama to stop blaming his brother, former President George W. Bush, for the country's economic troubles and accept responsibility.

"I think it is time for him to move on," he told host David Gregory on NBC's "Meet the Press." "I mean -- look, the guy was dealt a difficult hand, no question about it. But he's had three years. His policies have failed, and rather than blame others -- which I know we were taught that that was kind of unbecoming over time -- you just can't keep doing that. Maybe offer some fresh new solutions to the problems that we face."

Bush added he doesn't expect that to "happen between now and election day."

Posted: 26 Aug 2012 09:24 AM PDT

Make room on the mantle for one woman in Maine to get mother- and grandmother-of-the-year awards.

That's because 49-year-old Linda Sirois gave birth to her own grandson earlier this month.

That accomplishment might sound complicated, but actually Sirois acted as a surrogate for her daughter who has a heart condition that makes it unsafe for her to become pregnant, the Portland Press Herald reports.
