My soon to be husband towers over me at 6’2″ which means that if I’m not wearing some killer high heels on our wedding day, all of the photos will undoubtedly be of the bottom of my chin as I crane my neck to meet his gaze.

Friends of a 39-year-old woman who has been missing since earlier this week are appealing for help locating her.
Family members last saw Holly Fischer on Monday, when she left her parents’ home in Knox County, Tenn., presumably for her home in Charlotte, N.C. On Wednesday, her roommate called Fischer’s parents and told them Fischer hadn’t returned. The concerned parents then contacted Knox County authorities and reported her missing.
“We are deeply worried about her,” Fischer’s friend, Larisa Markanian, told The Huffington Post. “She would not have taken off without contacting one of us. Something is terribly wrong.”

Cheryl Dumesnil: ‘Mom, What’s Gay?’
Posted in: Today's Chili I cannot tell you how many times, in any given week, I end up stuck between a grownup concept and a kid who wants an explanation that he can understand. How do you explain the difference between family love and romantic love to a kindergartener?

Who knew that tighter security was all the rage these days? Following Dropbox, Google and virtually everyone else, LinkedIn has joined the trendy (if smart) ranks of those offering two-factor authentication as an option. Switch it on and you’ll have to enter a verification code delivered by SMS before you can log in with a device that LinkedIn doesn’t recognize. That’s all there is to the process, really, but it may be enough to prevent ne’er-do-wells from messing with your CV.

OKLAHOMA CITY — A violent storm formed over the prairie west of Oklahoma City late Friday afternoon, dropped a tornado in a suburb and rolled into the state capital as viewers brave enough to remain above ground watched on statewide television. State troopers reported a number of injuries.
Storm chasers with cameras in their car transmitted video showing a number of funnels dropping from the supercell thunderstorm as it passed south of El Reno and into Oklahoma City just south of downtown. Police urged motorists to leave the crosstown Interstate 40 and seek a safe place.

Rocky Lang: Sleazy Legal
Posted in: Today's Chili As I sat staring at the divorce papers, I thought back to my father. When he told me not to date cheap women, drink cheap booze, etc., I wish he had admonished me never to hire cheap legal. You do get what you pay for.

It’s been more than a quarter century since the “Silver Spoons” cast shared the small screen together, but Ricky Schroder, Joel Higgins, Erin Gray and Alfonso Ribeiro gathered to look back on the ’80s hit on “Today” this week (above).
“Silver Spoons,” which aired on NBC from September 25, 1982 to March 4, 1987, made Schroder a star, but Higgins said he never let it get to his head. “There were no egos involved. Nobody was a diva. If anybody had a right to be, it was Rick and he never, never was,” the now retired actor said on “Today.”
“It was absolutely perfect,” Gray, who has a few thriller movies coming out soon, added of working with her former “Silver Spoons” co-stars. “The best five years of my life. Loved them at the beginning; loved them at the end. Can’t say that too often.”
