An interesting update from the New York magazine site:
Hannah Upp Spotted!

Remember when we told you about Hannah Upp, the missing Harlem public-school teacher whose friends and loved ones were in a panic? A friend convinced us to publish her missing-person ad (left). “She vanished from her Hamilton Terrace apartment suddenly, leaving behind her purse, wallet, keys, cell phone, passport and credit card,” said the pal, Sarah Caldwell. “No one has heard from her since.”
Well, Upp has been spotted in Manhattan, checking her e-mail at the midtown Apple Store. A surveillance camera caught her, and after reviewing the tapes, her family confirms that it is indeed the young teacher. Her brother wrote on a Facebook page devoted to the search that they are “ready to welcome Hannah back with love, and with no questions asked.”
Hannah hasn’t contacted any of her family and friends yet, so they continue to urge people to call 911 if they see her. Then call us afterward, please, because we really want to know what the heck is going on.
