Homebirth Unveiled—The Voice & Heart of Homebirth Mothers. (150+photos)
The Intimate Moments of Homebirth.
My intention with this blog is to create awareness and understanding around homebirth. As you read each entry, please be mindful that each Mama has opened her heart and shares her most intimate moments with you in order to create awareness and understanding, as well as to inspire others to choose to birth at home.
Once upon a time, at the birth of the United States of America, most women birthed at home. The birth knowledge, birth intuition, birth wisdom and power belonged with women and midwives. In a brief 200 year period of our history, women have lost their power, given it away and it has been taken.
Now, many women are:
- – choosing to re-claim their innate and intuitive abilities and wisdom to birth without fear.
- – consciously choosing to not partake in the fear that society and the medical community has created around birth.
- – choosing love in birth and birthing in love.
- – tuning into the messages of their bodies and allowing their bodies to birth new life onto this earth as they instinctively and intuitively know how to do.
- – reclaiming and embracing their power and trusting themselves and their babies!
The moment of conception intimately takes place within our homes. The moments of parenting and raising our children take place within our homes. Let us embrace the intimate and sacred moments of birth in our own homes, surrounded by loving presence and surrendering to trust and our higher power.
The vibration of love at birth instead of fear allows our babies to maintain their highest radiance and life force, as is evident in these beautiful photographs. The vibration of love at birth helps Mama to open her heart, her place of connection between the divine and earth.
Our bodies are perfectly designed to both grow and birth healthy happy babies.
Again, please view this blog with the deepest respect and admiration possible for these beautiful women, babies, and families. Please notice your thoughts and feelings as they arise when you are viewing the photos and reading the statements of reflections from these gracious mothers. Please do share your thoughts and feelings so that the mothers will know that they are both respected and admired for sharing their experiences and for what they have accomplished – beauty in birth – bringing beauty to life. Thank you mothers!
- Be advised that Helene is not to be held responsible for any conceptions that occur as a result of the impact that viewing this blog may have.

For more information on the history of midwifery and homebirth, read the book "Midwives, Nurses, and Witches: A History of Women Healers" by Barbara Ehrenreich.
The Normalizing Homebirth Project Inc.
Inspired by the heart and voice of these beautiful and courageous homebirth mothers who have shared their experiences, I have founded a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation, The Normalizing Homebirth Project Inc., whose mission is to support homebirth mothers with scholarships and homebirth mentoring. Support this project today with as little as $5 and give the gift of homebirth to a family who would otherwise be unable to birth at home due to insurance companies refusal to cover the cost of homebirth. The financial cost of homebirth is far less than a hospital birth (literally thousands and in some cases even tens of thousands less), yet many insurance providers refuse to cover the cost for a homebirth midwife. Every woman deserves a choice!
If you are a woman interested in homebirth or planning a homebirth, please do consider the invaluable service of regular emotional support through telephone communication with a homebirth mentor. Through grants and donations that we receive we plan to offer scholarships and in the near future we will have the application available from our website.
You can become involved today in supporting this grassroots effort in several ways. We are looking for volunteers to serve as Homebirth Mentors. Donations and fundraisers are greatly appreciated and accepted. More volunteer opportunities are on the horizon.

Final Words of Thanks
This project has given me an opportunity to connect with so many women on different levels. I have thoroughly enjoyed, from the depths of my heart, hearing your stories and creating positive dialogue about natural birth and homebirth. I appreciate your willingness and openness to give of yourselves through this blog. You are amazing, powerful and beautiful women! May you continue to share your stories of love and open your hearts to the beauty all around us. Yours in service, Helene.

Absolutely beautiful and amazing Helene!! It fills me with joy to see so many woman who have birthed their babies at home!! It really gives me a sense of unity with those I don't even know. I wish every woman could feel the joy and ecstasy that comes along with giving birth in the loving environment of home. Maybe, with this blog and the Normalizing Homebirth website, homebirth will once again become the norm! How wonderful would that be! Thank you Helene, for doing this.
You came up with such a fantastic project. Thank you for your dedication, Helene. Keep up the great work!
Thank You for letting me be apart of this amazing project! great job!!
This brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for creating such an incredible project that will surely touch so many women!
Thanks so much for putting this all together! It's beautiful!! ♥

Amazing and beautiful photos. Thanks so much for normalzing homebirth.
This is beautiful and I feel so special and honored to be pictured here with my second baby:)
Breathtaking! The passionate, profound soul of homebirth is shown in all its spectacular incarnations. The faces, the adoration for brand-new babes that have come to their parents in an environment of total support and faith, are utterly beautiful. I feel my own home waterbirth memories so vividly! Thank you.
Big "like" on this project Helene and heartfelt thanks to all of these women for allowing us a peak into their most intimate moments in their lives!! The oxytocin comes flying off the photo stream and one can't help but be filled with feelings of Love and amazement in the wonders of Birth!!
Thank you for taking the time to put this together and share. It is so important.
Gracias por compartir algo tan importante con nosotros!
I love this. what a beautiful project.
Beautifully put together, to Helena and all the mothers. I'm pregnant with my first baby and I'm looking forward to the delivery, thanks for the support!
Although I made the choice to not have children, I appreciate the beauty and joy reflected in this article. Nicely done!!
Love this. My last son was a homebirth!
Awesome! I love all the pictures! I can not wait to experience yet another wonderful homebirth!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful testament to home birth!
Love the beauty of homebirth, love the stories, the photos, the families. I do. But, honestly? Not one person of color? This is a white world, I know it. I'm in it, I live it…trust me. But not one? And no one ever seems to notice or care or see anything wrong with us portraying images of mostly all white women doing this work. ALL women need to see themselves birthing babies at home. Privilege is a big part of it, yes. But I know there are plenty of families of color birthing babies at home all over this world! Let's make an effort to include them visually. Please. With all the racial and ethnic disparities in health care, especially social problems surrounding birth, this needs to become a priority. All in peace and love. <3 ~ Lori, doula, mommy, wife, homebirther.
There are a few women of color … its hard to tell from the photos. The third one from the bottom and another closer to the middle. I would have liked more, but I this is what I received. Are you a woman of color? If so, I'd love you to participate in the book.
Absolutely beautiful!!! I am in love with un-interfered with homebirth, and have been blessed to have two at home (first in a birth center). It is the best way to birth, and I can not fathom trying to birth in a hospital. I talk about homebirth all the time because I love it so much. Thanks so much for creating this gorgeous collection of photos and stories.
Thank you all for your supportive comments! So glad to hear your wonderful stories! Please forward this to your friends and family and let's normalize homebirth together! Today! Peace.
Wonderful blessings! Thank you for the post!
Thank you! Beautiful and moving….my 3 were all born without intervention and midwife assisted in birthing centers and their births were empowering and wonderful, but each time, the trip to the birthing center was a ghastly interruption and I have wistfully longed that my children were birthed at home. Assisted homebirth is expensive though and was beyond our reach at that time. Blessings to those who are able to make that choice, and let's move toward a time where homebirth is considered normal and available to all who choose it.
I feel so much happier now I udrnsetand all this. Thanks!

Birth in this manner has the capacity to heal lifetimes of pain. It felt as such for me during my homebirth. Thank you for helping to normalize & encourage this courageous & divine process.

A beautiful project….easy to do with such beautiful subjects/subject matter. I birthed my 1st daughter at home in 1988 and my second daughter at home in 1995. Each birth further simplified and radicalized my thoughts around birthing, women's health care, parenting and my living life philosophy.
Thanks for the love you put into this work. Thank you.
The photos just kept going and going and going! So beautiful, every one!
Thank you so much for sharing.

having a natural birthing experience seems to retain the magic of giving birth to life. it is natural for your body and your baby but please don't kid yourself and put yourself and your baby at risk by thinking it will come to you easily or naturally if you haven't been living NATURALLY for years. if you've had a desk job and live a typical western style life and you can't poop or pee in a squat you and your body is out of shape you are out of your mind if you think you can risk a home birth.
How is this comment polite, useful, or medically/scientifically informed? I know many many mothers who don't live a "natural" life by the criteria you describe who have successfully experienced home birth. Of course, being in good physical condition helps however you want to go about birthing a child.
I've had 4 hospital births and 7 home births. (yes I've given birth 11 times). All I can say about all of this is EXACTLY!!
This is so precious…beautiful. I wish so much that I could have had my births at home. After attempting for a few days of labor at home in my tub with midwives and a lovely support system, sadly I am one of those women that would have passed on in child birth without medical intervention just as many other women do in other areas of our world. As I observe these wonderful births in your photos I cant help but feel shame that I couldn't bring my children to my chest in the comfort of my home. After years, I have learned to make peace with my body and give thanks for my C-sections that have allowed me to be here for my children. You all have the beautiful gift of a healthy birthing body and to those who share my experience, you know the sadness and pain that comes from births that dont go as planned. Lets remember to join together as women and mothers and support each other whole hearted! I LOVE that homebirths are so popular and although my children were not born at home, I would not have not changed a single moment of my attempts. I hope all women that see this are reminded of how powerful we are as women. Blessings!
Sun, you should never feel shame about your body because this style of birthing didn't work for you. If you had a healthy baby and retained your health following the birth of your child, then you did a great job. I love your message of all women supporting each other in their vast variety of choices and means to deliver healthy babies.
What people who oppose home birth, for healthy, low risk women, don't understand is that the empowerment that women gain from participating fully in their birth leads to a confidence that's needed, not only to parent their children, but to live in a world where women's wisdom and power is not honored. Those who think it's selfish to want a birth experience that's positive are separating women into parts – the baby maker, the person who delivers that baby (the care provider) and the mother. Those can be and are all the same person if medicalized birth would stop meddling.
I had both of my children at home, my son 30 years ago when midwives weren't lisenced and my daughter 15 years ago when they were. I knew I had to have a home birth inspite of everyone else being against me. I knew I had to be empowered and to do it for my child's sake. Both labours were long and slow, not painful, I totally trusted them midwives. At my daughter's birth I found the younger midwife to be more clinical; luckily I had more experienced midwives who backed up my decision to remain at home to give birth. Leah came out a perfect 10 alert and smiling. I connected with all the foremothers. I highly recommend home birthing as the only way to give birth.
Nice, but one should not judge others who give birth at a hospital, sometimes, there is a need for that as well.

Vorinostat, Temozolomide, or Bevacizumab in Combination With Radiation Therapy Followed by Bevacizumab and Temozolomide in Young Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Grade Glioma
- Full Text View
- Tabular View
- No Study Results Posted
- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
This randomized phase II/III trial is studying vorinostat, temozolomide, or bevacizumab to see how well they work compared with each other when given together with radiation therapy followed by bevacizumab and temozolomide in treating young patients with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to kill tumor cells. It is not yet known whether giving vorinostat is more effective then temozolomide or bevacizumab when given together with radiation therapy in treating glioma.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
Small random acts of kindness very seldom get much attention as we go about our daily lives. Almost every day either we take a moment and help some one or someone helps us.
My neighbor, for example always puts my garbage can away on garbage day even when I am home. He started it many years ago after I came home from work and found my can blown down the street, tangled up with several others.
When many of us got caught a bit off guard with the new postal rate increase, we put mail in our boxes with the old stamps on them. My letters were taken anyway and the right amount of postage added. My letter carrier left me a little note telling my I owed her ten cents.
It was a nice gesture she didn't have to do. Instead I could have gotten a note and my outgoing mail back telling me to add postage. I wonder how many stamps she added that week.
I hope everyone paid her back.
Monday I was sitting on Carbon avenue in my truck waiting to drop my grand daughter off at dance class. A car pulled up and an older women got out of the vehicle to go into the medical supply store. As she tried to step across the ditch with water running she slipped and hit her face on the curb.
Three young teens walking up the street stopped immediately to assist her and help her out of the ditch. They could have kept going, but did not hesitate for a minute to offer aid. They also stayed long enough to make sure she was okay and did not need anything else.
There was the cute little boy at the high school ball field that shared half his candy bar with my littlest grand daughter because she was standing and watching him eat it. They had never met before, but ended up playing for the entire time we were at the game.
I know these aren't huge events, but they are the ones that remind us that most of the time there is a lot of good around us. Those things often get lost in our rush to report the news. The nice thing about writing for a small town newspaper is that it can cover the positive aspects of our community.
We do have "bad " news sometimes like lay-offs or fugitives on the loose, but most of what the paper can focus on is the progress and highlights of the area.
I would like to recognize other acts of kindness you may have observed in the community. Yes, I am stealing a bit from another columnist in a different paper, but it is nice to remind each other how much we appreciate and recognize the humanity we observe each day.
So write or e-mail me with your contributions and I will compile them into a column. Don't forget to add the correct amount of postage if you send it snail mail.

Mycobacterial and Opportunistic Infections in HIV-Negative Thai and Taiwanese Patients Associated With Autoantibodies to Interferon-gamma
- Full Text View

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
Opportunistic infections are caused by bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi or viruses that do not normally cause infections in people with healthy immune systems. Some of these infections can cause public health concerns, especially in areas with limited access to treatment. People who acquire opportunistic infections usually have diseases that affect their immune systems, such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), or do not have enough white blood cells to fight the infection. However, some people acquire opportunistic infections even though they have normal amounts of white blood cells and are free from known diseases that harm their immune systems. This study will investigate some of the reasons that otherwise healthy people get opportunistic infections to learn more about why some people are more likely to have them.
This study will include up to 210 HIV-negative males and females older than 18 years of age who have opportunistic infections. The patients will be drawn from multiple sites in Thailand and Taiwan including Khon Kaen University Hospital, Siriraj Hospital, Ramathibodi Hospital, National Taiwan University Hospital, National Cheng-Kung University Hospital
Patients will undergo an initial evaluation that will include a physical examination, medical history, and blood and urine testing. Additional tests will be conducted if the researchers consider that the tests are medically necessary to treat the opportunistic infection; the results of the tests will be reviewed and saved for study purposes. Depending on the severity of the infection, the initial evaluation may take more than 1 day to complete.
After the evaluation, patients will be given standard and appropriate medicines to treat the infections.
Patients will return for follow-up visits to allow researchers to monitor their condition and to assess how well the patient is responding to the treatment. Patients will be evaluated by the study researchers at least once a year for 2 years following the initial treatment.

|Time Perspective: Prospective
|Official Title:
|Mycobacterial and Opportunistic Infections in HIV-Negative Patients Associated With Autoantibodies to Interferon-gamma
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|December 2008
The acquisition of opportunistic infections has been causally linked to innate and acquired immunodeficiencies. We have recently identified a population of Asian women with autoantibodies to interferon gamma (IFN?), all of whom were diagnosed by virtue of nontuberculous mycobacterial infections. Similar patient populations have been reported from Thailand, and we have found similar autoantibodies in anonymous serum samples from there. In addition, many of the Thai patients who have disseminated or lymphatic nontuberculous infections have had other opportunistic infections (OI), such as salmonella, penicilliosis, and histoplasmosis. However, they have normal lymphocyte counts and are human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) negative. Therefore, the identification of autoantibodies to a critical cytokine, the occurrence of opportunistic infections, and the lack of other common explanations suggests that this is an important population to study. We propose to enroll patients in a natural history study of non-HIV opportunistic infections to explore the presence of autoantibodies to cytokines, and to examine potential immunogenetic factors influencing the development of this disease. Plasma, cells, and DNA samples will be obtained and stored for use in this study. This study will accrue up to 210 patients over 3 years as per the groups described in section 4.3

An affordable, fully programmable mono synth with a 100% analog signal path.
The Mopho is a compact and powerful monophonic analog synthesizer from Dave Smith Instruments. The voice architecture is identical to a single voice of the Prophet '08, an eight-voice synthesizer with a 100% analog signal path, yet with a couple of unique twists to distinguish it from its award-winning sibling. Dave Smith Instruments have added two sub-octave generators-one per oscillator-for additional girth and crushing basses. It also has an audio input that lets you process external audio and mix Mopho's own audio output back in pre-filter for feedback effects that can range from subtle distortion to extreme skronk. The "Push It!" button is a manual trigger that lets you play a specific note or latch notes and sequences on. The Mopho Monophonic Synthesizer can also step through a sequence to play short melodic lines without a keyboard. Mopho can also be used with a MIDI controller or external sequencer.
Mopho is fully programmable and all the parameters can be tweaked from the front panel. The four Assignable Parameters controls are assignable per program for optimal performance control. A free editor is available for Mac OS and Windows to facilitate programming. If you already have a Prophet '08, most of Mopho's parameters can be controlled from the Prophet's front panel via MIDI.
Mopho is perfect for people who want to learn the ins and outs of real analog synthesis without spending a bundle, DJs looking to add some old-school sonic spice to their setups, and musicians who will appreciate a great-sounding, very portable mono synth.
Add the spice of analog synth with this easy-to-use synth module. Order today.

Comments about Dave Smith Instruments Mopho - Monophonic Desktop Analog Synthesizer:
I'm a wind player that purchased this for use with a MIDI Wind controller (the Yamaha WX5). My needs are quite different from what I expect is the typical target market. This was my first synth, and I had no prior synth programming background.
After a year of owning this I can definitely say this is a well built unit, both in build quality and sound possibilities. Because I use it with my wind controller, my primary sounds are sustained lead or bass tones - I don't use the sequencer at all. For my purposes it's very responsive to the wind controller when the patch is well made, and the sound palette is what you would expect from a two voice analog synth, with lots of tonal possibilities depending on how good you are at programming. I have no real frame of reference for what other analog synths sound like except from the music I've listened to, so I can't talk too much about the particular qualities of the basic sounds possible. It's definitely easy enough to get HUGE lead and bass sounds out of this thing though.
What I am very glad for - and I had no way of knowing this going in - is the ample number of modulation sources and four assignable LFOs. For me, I need to assign Midi Breath to at least two parameters per patch, so I take full advantage of the modular nature of the assignable mod sources. Because Midi Breath already has a dedicated mod source as well, I can assign it to five parameters if I really wanted. Having so many LFOs, I guess 4 is a lot on most mono synths, gives me more options in how the sound changes over time, which for me is very useful. After looking at other analog synth units since getting to know this one, I can say that this is a perfect analog companion to wind controller and EWI users.
The only gripe one might have is that it's nearly impossible to program this unit from the unit itself. You pretty much have to use the computer software with USB-Midi cables. This is fine I think, as there are so many slots for patches if you spend some time getting patches ready you shouldn't need to edit much on the spot, but you can control some parameters on the fly if you need. I've also noticed that a lot of synth players like to manipulate knobs of the synth while playing the keyboard to a greater extent than this unit would really let you. You can't play this unit the same way you can play a Moog Minotaur, for example, the knobs just aren't that responsive. But it's not really intended to be that way I don't think. For me, I always have to have two hands on my instrument, so it's a total moot point. I set it to the patch I want and leave the unit alone.
Comments about Dave Smith Instruments Mopho - Monophonic Desktop Analog Synthesizer:
I've had the Mopho in my working rig firing off of a pitch to midi interface. This synth really is killer; from the software editor to the fat, FAT sounds of the Smith analog oscillators, this pup really is a super deluxe value.
I think DSI is a great company. Buy their stuff, you won't be dissapointed. I also own an Evolver.
Comments about Dave Smith Instruments Mopho - Monophonic Desktop Analog Synthesizer:
I am surprised that I am the 1st to review the Mopho given that I?m a guitarist. I received mine last week and went about listening to all 384 programs and twiddling the knobs. The sounds are utterly amazing from classic leads, basses, sequences, to just plain noise. Wonderful phat & wet analog heaven!The price of the Mopho along with an Axiom 25, MIDI cable, and power supply nets you an analog synth for almost half the price of the ?Little Phatty?. I could not be more thrilled!
Comments about Dave Smith Instruments Mopho - Monophonic Desktop Analog Synthesizer:
Hands down the best sounding, most well thought out Synthesizer for under $1000. In fact, I give it higher marks than it's sibling's because I love how compact it is.

Hi Erik;
I am leading an IEEE-SA Standards Working Group trying to Develop a Standard Document for:
"Standards for Designating and Quantifying Green Energy Projects in the Electricity Sector"
In other words how do you measure "Greeness" and "Sustainability" taking into account a total life cycle approach.
It is IEEE-SA Project P1595.
Sounds like you may be interested in this and I invite you to join the Working Group.
If you are interested, let me know your e-mail address and I will send you the Approved PAR for the Project and further Info.

I have tried to incoporate sustainable elements into the projects I have worked on especially in regard to the operation and disposal elements. I haven't really considered the creation stage other than what it takes to install the equipment on the site, I haven't considered what it takes to actually manufacture the equipment and to be honest I think I would struggle to get that kind of information out of manufacturers.
I think from engineers there has to be a realisation that although some of the sustainable options (especially in the energy sector) aren't currently the most reliable or feasable we still have to persevere with them to bring them up to the standards we require.
Most of the greener options will have a small impact but that doesn't mean to say they are not worth investing in. Lots of smaller investments will create a larger impact. For example why not install solar panels on wind turbines?
Realisation also has to come from managers and accountants. Sustainable options will often mean more expense and a slower return on investments, but these elements are often the greater drivers for projects. I guess as an engineer I need to learn to speak the managers and accountants lingo so that these options can be put in a better light.
Kind regards

Donald thank you for your post. Hopefully as goods progress along their value chains, in future there will be much more explicit and transparent evidence of how they accrete a carbon footprint either in terms of carbon embedded or released from raw materials & processes all the way to finished product, instead of "greenwash" in the sales brochures. I'd like to think that even if there are small benefits and gains from small green options, that market forces would bring enough pressure to make those small options more viable. The closer to peak-oil tipping point the more those small contributions will make a difference. With regard to the management and finance "lingo" - I'd like to think that our finance colleagues might at least meet us half-way - literacy in reducing our impact on the environment could be plain-english - or even a shared vocabulary that makes it easy for all disciplines to understand the dynamics affecting us all. Hopefully any IET members involved in carbon accounting can chip in here ? Kind regards Erik

Hi Erik,
A common standard for identifying a products' credentials towards its carbon footprint would indeed be a huge step forward but it has to be done for all products and not just those products purporting to be greener. If we don't know the carbon footprint of the older products then we cannot comapre them to the newer ones.
The main problem with implementing more sustainable products is that in a lot of cases you are reliant upon accountants and managers operating at a higher level of morality and not just going for the best returns.
For example I managed to push through a battery upgrade because I could show that the newer batteries would last longer and produce a reduction in waste over the plant life than the old ones and hence a reduction in costs, so that went ahead. When I looked at PF correction the payback calculated was around 8 years which accountants didn't view as an acceptable payback for that amount of expenditure irrespective that it reduced power consumption.
I guess we are in a transition period and as time goes by and new systems are installed that already have more sustainable technology within them it will become the norm to replace them with the same or even better technology.
Kind regards

Hopefully yesterday's announcement about the new UK Green Investment Bank will focus minds within the finance and management community on what evidence they need to articulate about how green their projects are ? This in turn would need to be backed up by engineering and scientific evidence. Kind regards Erik

By, Adam K. Fetterman
In my previous post I gave a possible explanation of why so called "paranormal researchers" or "ghost hunters" attribute randomness to the paranormal. I also mentioned that I would have an upcoming post on why people are motivated to believe in the paranormal. However, I came across an article about the memories of supernatural experiences in children, so that post will be put on the backburner for now. The reason this article struck me is because I recently have been watching a spin-off (?) of Paranormal State called Psychic Kids. The show employs "psychic" Chip Coffey to help "psychic" children develop and embrace their "psychic abilities" in order to not be afraid anymore. In the episodes of this show, and others such as Paranormal State, the children and adults are quite convinced that what they have seen in the past was real, and paranormal. This is because they probably have created false-memories of these events based on their supernatural beliefs.
According to the research of Principe and Smith (2007), children who hold beliefs of the supernatural are more likely to construct memory errors that comport with their paranormal beliefs. Specifically, they found that children who believe in the tooth fairy were more likely to recall supernatural experiences surrounding the loss of a tooth, than those that do not believe. That is, they have constructed "real" memories, falsely. These findings likely explain why the children and adults from these paranormal shows appear completely convinced that their experiences were real.
It may not seem harmful to believe in the tooth fairy or some paranormal activity in a way that does not affect one's life or when it is an adult making their own choices. However, it may seem a little more worrisome if the children show some psychological distress as a result. As Skepchick and PZ Myers have pointed out, these shows and psychics, such as Psychic Kids and Chip Coffey, may be preying on children with blatant psychological problems. That is, they seem to be feeding these problems by unscientifically "confirming" these false memories, which could increase their anxiety, fear, and social isolation. All of this for our entertainment(?).

While letting your staff dress and style themselves however they like says you're the "cool" boss, sometimes cracking down and bringing a little class into your establishment is ideal. That's where a few attractive and comfortable restaurant staff shirts come into play. Nothing says dressed to impress and aiming to please like a nice button-down shirt and a smile, and giving your servers that little something extra can go a long way in the dining room. Plus, when your staff is dressed in the same style of shirts it's easy to tell who's who when business is booming in the restaurant. Looking snazzy and staying classy is made easy when you're using some of these good-looking shirts.

16 U.S. Code § 4104 - State projects
(a) In general
(1) Any State may, through its State agency or an interstate commission, submit to the Secretary a proposal for a project which includes full plans, specifications, and cost estimates for such project. The total cost of all items included for engineering, planning, inspection, and unforeseen contingencies in connection with any works to be constructed as part of such a proposed project shall not exceed 10 percent of the total cost of such works, and shall be paid by the State as a part of its contribution to the total cost of the works.
(2) No part of any funds appropriated under any authorization contained in section 4107 of this title may be obligated with respect to any project until the proposal for such project has been submitted under paragraph (1) and approved by the Secretary. The Secretary, before approving any proposal for a project, must evaluate the proposal as to—
(C) the minimization of duplication with other research projects in support of the management of interjurisdictional fishery resources and carried out under this chapter or under any other law or regulation;
(F) the consistency of the project with the purposes of this chapter specified in section 4101 of this title; and
(3) The Federal share of the cost of any project conducted under this chapter shall not exceed 75 percent of the total estimated cost of the project, unless—
(A) the State has adopted an interstate fishery management plan for the resource to which the project applies; or
(B) the State has adopted fishery regulations which the Secretary has determined are consistent with any Federal fishery management plan for the species to which the project applies;
in which case the Federal share shall not exceed 90 percent of the total estimated cost of the project.
(A) If the Secretary approves or disapproves a proposal for a project, the Secretary shall promptly give written notification, including, if disapproved, a detailed explanation of the reasons for the disapproval, to the State agency submitting the proposal or, if the proposal is submitted through an interstate commission, such commission and the State.
(b) Restriction
The expenditure of funds under this chapter shall be applied only to projects for which a proposal has been approved under subsection (a) of this section, except that up to $25,000 each fiscal year may be obligated for a State to carry out an agreement with the Secretary or the Secretary of the Interior under which the personnel, services and equipment of the State and the Federal agency concerned will be made mutually available for the enforcement of Federal and State laws pertaining to the protection of fishery resources. If otherwise applied, such funds shall be replaced by the State before the State may receive any additional funds under this chapter.
(c) Payment
When the Secretary determines that a project carried out under a proposal approved by the Secretary has been completed, or where the Secretary otherwise deems it appropriate, the Secretary shall cause to be paid to the proper authority of the State, or to the official or depository designated by the interstate commission if the State agency specifies that payment is to be made to the interstate commission, the Federal share of the project. Any payment made to an interstate commission shall be charged against the apportionment of the State concerned.
