The 10 worst Valentine's Day gifts
The Teen Worst Presents
We know what you’re thinking: Valentine’s Day is a commercial holiday. It’s forced. It’s too much pressure. But if you’re dating this month, you’ll probably wind up roaming the aisles for a gift to give your date on February 14th.

It was one of those cases that seemed straight out of pulp fiction, a noir mystery written by one of those hard-boiled scribes who liked to surround damsels in distress with mobsters and movie stars.
Yet it was real life. And it defied solution.
Jean Elizabeth Spangler, a television actress, went missing in 1949.
