When you know, you know. That’s how Kaley Cuoco explained her decision to wed tennis pro Ryan Sweeting just six months after meeting on a blind date.

By the next day, the star had begun imagining herself as Mrs. Sweeting. “I thought, I don’t want to spend a day without him!” she told Us this January. “It was just a feeling inside of me and a look in his eyes. I knew there was no one else I wanted to be with.” In her gut, she figured there was no problem they couldn’t solve. “I knew when I met Ryan, no matter whatever came along that…

OPENS FRIDAY 10/2 The Martian Fantastic galactic! Matt Damon’s space film is one of the best of the year Houston, we have a problem: With Prometheus, Gravity and Interstellar, the out-of-this-world disaster genre is more worn-out than an Apollo 13 VHS. Good thing this first-rate popcorn film is brilliantly executed and, like a breath of fresh oxygen, sublimely hilarious. Matt Damon is Mark Watney, part of a team of NASA astronauts sent to explore Mars. During a storm, the mission is aborted and Mark is presumed dead. Just one tiny glitch: He’s alive and well. For now, anyway. He’s got limited food and water rations in a dry environment and his only entertainment is the disco collection left behind in the space station. (Though, come on, Donna Summer rules on…

Q: Are you planning a big party? I completely went over the top with a petting zoo and Elmo and, you know, a jumping castle. I couldn’t help myself! Everything’s so cute. But we’re donating her gifts to the children’s hospital, so I feel better about going overboard. Q: What are her latest milestones? We’re going to do potty training soon. She’s starting to get the hang of that.…
