Howdy. I've never posted anything to a board, but I'm desperate We (as in the YSA in our stake) are making a Scrapbook for our YSA 'mom' Cindy. We were planning to give it to her Monday night (at FHE), but she wont be there (her family is going out for a family dinner). We have a few other options, each with drawbacks. We can give it to her on Sunday during YSA class, but most who helped make it wont be there for that (she's only in our ward, and others would have to drive an hour to get here, and simply can't do it). Or there's the thought of giving it to her in an annonymous way (she'll know it's us when she opens it). The best course of action is option two, to leave it for the family. The issue becomes, what's the best way/place to leave it? Some way that's creative and special for the family. Any suggestsions? thanks for your help....time for me to get back to work... Ja Jikei

Perhaps it's not this Friday the 13th you need to worry about Friday, April 13, 2029 an asteroid (MN104 I think is the name) will come closer to the Earth then anything in over a thousand years. It'll come closer to us then our moon...closer then many of the satelites that orbit the Earth. For a while it was thought that the asteroid would hit us. We now know that it wont, however it is unsure how the Earths gravity will effect the asteroid. Depending on how our gravity effects the asteroid will determine if (when) the asteroid comes back around. One of the computer models set up shows that the gravity could be such that the asteroid will swing back around a second time. This second time the results are much less sure. When did the ocmputer think that second time could be? Friday, April 13th, 2035. Yes, I'm a science geek.

"Cutting" by Steven Levenkron is a good book, I think. Prayer and meditation helped me a boat load. Good luck. You can do it!
