I was trying for a picture of water flowing out of a tap. I got several, but this seemed the most fun. I used a flash and it froze the bubbles in the aerated flow coming from my kitchen tap. Who knew my tap water had all those bubbles!!
Getting back into the routine of searching for and making my gratitude image today. Not easy as I'm 9 time zones out-of-step, and a bit weary from yesterday's 19 hour trek home. However, having recently been in Malta, where "it is not recommended to drink the water", I'm noticing feeling very grateful for the ability to simply turn on the tap and have any amount of clean, safe and cheap water. So, for today, I'm grateful for our water. [Gratitude 73-365]

On 28 January 2009, DFID allocated £600,000 to Oxfam, to help provide safe drinking water and improved sanitation in some of the most badly affected areas of Gaza.
This funding has helped Oxfam to set up clean water storage and distribution systems such as the one pictured here.

While building the Pond Sand Filter with Save the Children, I asked you guys on Twitter (twitter.com/uncultured) if we could give up the naming rights to the filter and give the honor to someone in the village. You voted yes. Here's who you honored.
This is 18 year old Saiful Islam. He's too poor to ever have anything named after himself. In order to support himself, he left his village in Southern Bangladesh to work in a garment factory (or "sweat shop" by some) in Dhaka City.
In this photo, I ask him to write his name on a piece of paper. He didn't know why at the time. The reason is I wanted to get the spelling right on the signboard that was made in his honor.
Naming the Pond Sand Filter after Saiful also has had a benefit to the community. Saiful is actually the son of the community caretaker of the Pond Sand Filter. It is hoped that the sense of family pride will make sure that this Pond Sand Filter will last for years to come.
