Bangladesh boat rally to protest river pollution on World Water Day - Transparency International Bangladesh’s Committee of Concerned Citizens (CCC) and Youth Engagement and Support (YES) members organised a human chain on boats to mark World Water Day. Demanding integrity in the water sector, this unique initiative drew the attention of the government and relevant authorities about the importance of protecting rivers in Bangladesh from illegal occupation, and also towards ending pollution due to industrial waste dumping. The illegal encroaching of rivers by filling them with sand is considered to be a major threat to rivers in Bangladesh, but corruption or political influence has hampered law enforcement and the relevant ministries’ response.

The best way to build trust with others, is to be truthful with transparency.
When we rationalize, or cloud things over because we are afraid how others will respond to us, then are we being true to ourselves?
If we don't know who we are, then how can we expect to be transparent with others, to trust the person they think we are.

Citizens must have adequate information in order to assess the activities of companies operating in their territory. We used an industry-neutral set of five criteria to measure the degree of 105 companies’ transparency in financial reporting of revenues, capital expenditure, income before tax, income tax, and community contributions. The results? Very few companies disclose financial information across all their countries of operation, and no company scores full marks.

Nixon Tobar brought a tiny lot of his Maragojipe coffee into the lab to be analyzed while I was there. He then showed me the text he immediately receives from Virmax once the analysis is completed and a price is assigned.
We did Phase II of the microlot study and shared the results with our survey participants because we, like Virmax, are committed to a high level of transparency. I feel particularly proud of this step of the research. Should there be future studies, I hope to take it even further and do as one participant suggested, "Before making the survey I think you should meet with producers to say, 'Does this make sense?' Getting together with people, going over the points, getting closer to their reality."
That's what the best research does, right? At least the kind of research we hope to use in a day-to-day, tangible way. We hope to get closer to their reality so we can both see the human side of the business and be better business partners.
The apparent overexposed background is actually due to direct exposure to Sun behind the leaves. Perhaps I should not have used spot metering.
This is my first card ever. It took me the entire weekend to make it (most of the time was spent just playing with different ideas). I used my cricut, staz on ink, a transparency, tonic studios punch, color box inks, hero arts stamps and a hero arts gem. I also used generic card stock from JoAnn. Phew. I hope I get better at this as I go along!

Device is a clamp essentially. Set down and made to rock back and forth.
This is my first attempt at an effect I saw used by others. It involves taking a picture, displaying it on your screen and then taking a second picture. Yeah, it's not the greatest, but I had to try it. See the Transparent Screens Pool for more.
Here's a black/white version by request.

I think the Elasmosaurus was my favorite.
I have this distinct memory.
15 years in the making.
An advanced art class, a project I had been putting together for weeks. It had come time for a class critique.
We sat in a circle, taking turns and showing what we had been working on.
My turn came and there was just silence.
A boy, of course the only one that I had some silly school girl crush on, finally spoke up and simply said "I don't get it"
..."I don't get it"...
I could even muster the strength to push out a sound. There was so much I put into this, so much i could have said.
But I was embarrassed. Then I was just plain angry, why did I have to explain what this meant to me. Take it in, internalize it, what does it mean to you. You who sat here as an artist, the same as me.
But I said nothing, I just couldn't. finally the instructor chimed in and put an end to my misery with some constructive comments.
But, for years those exact words rang in my ears and paralyzed me with everything I wrote, everything I drew, everything I created.
I still freeze. I don't share what I write. And I sit on my photograph for weeks, internalizing them, analyzing them, worrying. Will they get it? Before I ever muster enough confidence to share.
These photos I share, are so much more than a snapshot of our day. They are a piece of me. They are what it means to me to be a wife, a mother, a women, a poet. an artist.
Maybe you get it, maybe you don't. Maybe you draw your own interpretation, and that's okay too.
I'm learning to walk into the unknown and be okay with what is waiting there; I'm learning to be okay with the uncomfortable.
Nothing is more frightening than transparency.
