After two decades in the study and practice of medicine, Sarah Seidelmann took a three month sabbatical to search for a way to feel good again. Having witnessed human suffering early in her career and within her own family, she longed for a way to address more than just the physical needs of her patients and to live in a lighter, more conscious way. Swimming with Elephants tells the eccentric, sometimes poignant, and occasionally hilarious experience of a working mother undergoing a bewildering vocational shift from physician to shamanic healer. During that tumultuous period of answering her call, Sarah met an elephant who would become an important spirit companion on her journey, had bones thrown for her by a shaman in South Africa, and traveled to India for an ancient Hindu pilgrimage, where she received the blessing she had been longing for. Ultimately, she discovered an entirely different way of healing, one that she had always aspired to, and that enabled her to help those who are suffering.

High-school senior Meera has big plans. She's going to make the world beautiful. The only problem is that to do this she's got to attend Interior Design School at the University, hundreds of miles from home. She hasn't gone on a sleepover since seventh grade. Thank God her BFF Penn is there for her because with Lorraine, her mom, it's complicated. When Meera discovers something unexpected, a whole lot of confusing things suddenly make sense and, simultaneously, absolutely nothing is clear. Meera senses she can't get through this in the ordinary way. It's going to take otherworldly assistance. But will she have the courage to open that door? And will it even matter? Meera's epic and mythical adventures lead, quite unexpectedly, to more contentment and joy than she ever could have imagined. Meera's journey, which features the adoption triad of mother, birthmother and adoptee, teaches us about the essential wisdom of following our heart's desires, paying attention to the omens and messengers along the way (especially the wild ones), and the importance of pursuing our dreams.

The uses of time in astronomy - from pointing telescopes, coordinating and processing observations, predicting ephemerides, cultures, religious practices, history, businesses, determining Earth orientation, analyzing time-series data and in many other ways - represent a broad sample of how time is used throughout human society and in space. Time and its reciprocal, frequency, is the most accurately measurable quantity and often an important path to the frontiers of science. But the future of timekeeping is changing with the development of optical frequency standards and the resulting challenges of distributing time at ever higher precision, with the possibility of timescales based on pulsars...
