For that matter you wouldn’t think it quite so likely to happen anywhere these days, in the age of social media and near-total electronic interconnect- edness. But it did. A McAlpin woman went missing three years ago and nobody noticed. Let the strange case of Deborah Jamie Pittman, also known as Deborah Williams Pittman, be a lesson to us all. Ms. Pittman did not fit the stereotype of someone who goes missing and isn’t missed. She was not elderly at 58 and had no apparent physical ailments that would keep her from getting out from time to time. Still, it happened.

New lander will fuel our fascination with Mars

CAPE CANAVERAL — In our solar system family, Mars is Earth’s next-of-kin, the next-door relative that has captivated humans for millennia. The attraction is sure to grow with Monday’s arrival of a NASA lander named InSight. InSight should provide our best look yet at Mars’ deep interior, using a mechanical mole to tunnel 16 feet (5 meters) deep to measure internal heat, and a seismometer to register quakes, meteorite strikes and anything else that might start the red planet shaking. Scientists consider Mars a tantalizing time capsule. It is less geologically active than the twice-as-big Earth and so retains much of its early history. By studying the preserved heart of Mars, InSight can teach us how our solar system’s rocky planets formed 4 1/2 billion years ago and why they turned out so different. “Venus is hot enough to melt lead. Mercury has a sunbaked surface. Mars is pretty cold today. But Earth is a nice place to take a vacation, so we’d really like to know why one planet goes one way, another planet goes another way,” said InSight’s lead sci- entist Bruce Banerdt in Pasadena, California. Today’s Earthlings are lured to Mars for a variety of reasons. Mars — “an incredible natural laboratory” — is reasonably easy to get to, and the U.S., at least, has a proven track record there, noted Lori Glaze, NASA’s acting director of planetary science. The cherry on top is that Mars may have once been flush with water and could have harbored life. “Trying to understand how life is — or was — distributed across our solar system is one of the major questions that we have,” Glaze said Wednesday at a news conference. In two years, NASA will actually seek evidence of ancient microbial life on Mars — if, indeed, it’s there. On Monday, the space agency announced Jezero Crater as the landing site for the Mars 2020 rover, which will gather samples and stash them for return to Earth in the early 2030s. The crater’s ancient lake and river system is brim- ming with diverse rocks, making it a potential hot spot for past life. Past life.

TALLAHASSEE — The quarterback who grew up just a few minutes down the road helped Florida halt a five-year losing streak to Florida State, and the Gators ensured the Seminoles will not go to a bowl. Feleipe Franks had three touchdown passes and No. 13 Florida used a punishing ground attack to end a five-game losing streak to Florida State, defeating the Seminoles 41-14 on Saturday. Lamical Perine had a 74-yard touchdown run as Florida ran for 278 yards, averaging 5.3 yards per carry. Perine ran for 129 yards, averaging 9.9 yards per carry. Florida had 536 offensive yards and reinforced its case for an at-large spot in a New Year’s Six bowl game. “That’s hard for me to say because only 12 teams get to go do that,” Florida coach Dan Mullen said. “We’ve certainly put ourselves in the conversation as one of those teams.” ‘The Gators (9-3) halted ERIC JACKSON/Lake City Reporter Florida State’s bowl streak, which Columbia wrestler Ian McGuigan (left) goes up against teammate and twin brother Alex McGuigan during practice Tuesday. began in 1982.

Robbins Manufacturing Company, based in Webster, purchased Cochran Forest Products off U.S. Highway 90 in Lake City earlier in November. “Robbins’ plans are to increase Cochran’s produc- tion and expand its marketing area,” the company wrote in a media statement. The plant will continue to serve existing customers with the goal of making the business stand out as a top supplier in the Southeastern United States, the statement reads. “We will continue to foster strong long-term relationships with customers and suppliers, as well CARL MCKINNEY/Lake City Reporter as continue to hire, train Robbins Manufacturing employee Carlton Jones, left, and plant manager Richard North tour the local mill’s grounds recently.

C ommunity Concerts presents: Conifers can bring joy to The Nutcracker Ballet the cool season landscape With Professional Dance Alive National Ballet Dancers, Local Dance Students, By Norman Winter Tribune News Service and Tumblers

I love green selec- tions, blue-gray varieties, and then there is nothing that causes my heart to race quite like the gold varieties. Then to add the magic I would like as many shapes and sizes as possible.
