Do Not Neglect the Basis
Many people, once they start body building, concentrate mainly on their biceps, abs and some other muscles they are capable of seeing in the mirror every day. However, a few of these people know that the back muscles are the most important group of all. Namely, these muscles act as a foundation, holding all the other muscles together and acting as a more than valuable support. Therefore, they should not be left out when exercising, but, rather, more included than the other muscles.
Exercises for Strong Back Muscles
One of the best exercises involving one's back are pull ups. All you need for this purpose is a fixed bar long enough for you to grab it with your hands opposing you. The next thing you need to do is to pull yourself off the ground, up to the bar level, until your chin either touches it or gets above it. After stopping for a bit at this peak, slowly return your body down, repeating the whole process for about 10 times.
The second best exercise are the famous deadlifts. This exercise consists of you bending your back down, while leaving your legs absolutely straight during the process. One you have lowered the upper part of your body, you are to grab and lift a barbell up to your initial position, holding it down with your hands next to your body and your shoulders retracted back a bit. Several series of 10 repetitions should do wonders to your back muscles.
Similar to bench pressing, there are the T-bar rows. Namely, lie down on a T-bar bench, with your back placed upon a 45 degree angle. You also need to make sure your legs are spread wide and that they will allow support if your back gets over-strained. Take the handle of the barbell and slowly lower it to the hight of your chest, returning it up slowly afterwards. The same exercising tactics regarding series and repetitions may be applied here.
Next thing, you can do also involves the barbell. Bend the upper part of your body while holding the weight, so to make the barbell be somewhere at your knees hight. Afterwards, with your palms facing the opposite of you, lift up the barbell up to your abdominal area, as if pulling it in. Repeat until you feel that your back has had enough since you do not want to stress it too much.
Finally, there are numerous other exercises involving a lat machine, different weights and many other things. All you need is a strong will and patience to endure the exercises mentioned above. If you have what it takes, strong and powerful back will come as a rightful reward in no time.

No. The clinical professionals at CIE are licensed, independent practitioners who direct their own individual private practices. CIE provides business support to each clinician as requested.
Medication is not for everyone and it is certainly not a "cure-all," but there are times when taking medication is either clinically indicated or an option to consider as part of your comprehensive treatment plan.
Depending on the nature and severity of the concerns addressed in therapy, medication may be warranted as part of a comprehensive treatment approach. If, after sufficient assessment and discussion, medication as a supplement to the psychotherapy process is desired, we will work closely with your primary care physician and/or assist with a referral to a skilled and competent psychiatrist.
The abilities to be self-sufficient and to have a healthy support system can be great sources of strength. Nevertheless, many people continue to encounter difficulties with the way they feel, think about, and experience themselves and their circumstances. Friends and family are often well meaning but may lack the skills that a trained professional can provide. In therapy clients find a professional, supportive, and confidential environment where they can safely experience their thoughts and feelings in a way they may not be able to do with others. In addition, a licensed therapist is trained to help you understand your behaviors and relational patterns with greater depth and sophistication.

Counseling for the
Highly Sensitive Person
Counseling For The Highly Sensitive Person
Coping with sensory overload can be emotionally draining to you and your significant other. If you have trouble coping because the world is just too much, you may be a highly sensitive person (HSP). About 15-20% of the population is highly sensitive, so you are not alone. Being highly sensitive is natural, not a defect. Both men and women can be HSPs.
If you answer yes to some of these questions, you might be highly sensitive and benefit from HSP counseling.
Are you easily overwhelmed by loud sounds, bright lights, or strong smells?
Do you absorb the emotions of others?
Do you avoid violent movies or TV shows?
Are you highly empathetic?
Are you easily startled?
Do you need time alone to recover from interacting with others?
Do you appreciate the fine arts and music?
Being highly sensitive is not something to be "cured," it is how we are wired. It is something we can learn to better manage. Being highly sensitive is a blessing and a curse. We appreciate the wonderful things in life more deeply but can be poorly protected from intense emotions and overwhelmed by sensations when others aren't.
Being an HSP also presents challenges to our relationships. If your partner is not an HSP, they may not understand what you are experiencing. Likewise, they may not understand what you feel. Counseling can the HSP improve relationships, with family and at work.
Resources for HSPs:
A simple test shows if you are an HSP. If you are curious, take this

Your school will notify you if you must repay part of the grant. From that point, you will have 45 days to either pay that portion of the grant back in full or enter into a satisfactory repayment arrangement. If you enter into a satisfactory repayment arrangement, the school may assign the debt to ED for collection or may keep the debt and allow you to make payments directly to them.
Once you receive your SAR, you must contact the Financial Aid Office to see if any information is needed to complete your financial aid file. The information from your SAR will be forwarded electronically to EFSC but it may be necessary to submit additional documentation. Your SAR is not a financial aid award. EFSC will send you an Award Notice informing you of the aid for which you are eligible.
Every state maintains its own college grant programs, and they are typically only available to student residents. While it would be impossible to list every education grant from each state in the union in the space available here, the following examples will give students an idea of the types of programs that may be available through their own state governments. College-bound students are encouraged to visit their state's higher education website for detailed information on any and all merit-based and need-based grant programs which may be available.
Colleges and universities can also be prime sources for grants. Often, colleges will be given private endowments from individuals and businesses for the purpose of providing financial aid to deserving students. Again, privately endowed grants and scholarships tend to have highly specific eligibility requirements, and may target certain portions of the population such as women or minorities. They may also be dedicated to students pursuing degrees in specific fields or disciplines.

Instructo Announces Launch Offering a Platform to Find Local Tutors and Trainers in a Wide Range of Categories
For people striving to learn a new skill it can often be a challenge finding the proper instructor. Instructo, a recently launched marketplace is aimed at solving that problem. Featuring free trainer and tutor listings, with diverse skills represented, the platform is off to a very quick start.
There's little doubt connecting with the right tutor can be immensely valuable to a student. Finding just this kind of tutor or trainer can be sped up dramatically with access to the right kind of resource. Victoria Park, Western Australia-based Instructo recently announced their launch offering just this kind of tool. Instructo is a marketplace where tutors and trainers can post their listings and offer their services making connections with students seeking instruction. It's completely free for both students looking for tutors to use, and for tutors and trainers themselves to post ads.
"Instructo offers the chance to learn from the best," commented a spokesperson from the marketplace. "Using Instructo is simple and free for both students and tutors. We're striving to change the way people think of a tutor platform here in Australia. It's a win/win all around."
According to Instructo, diverse categories of interest are represented. Some of the more popular include: music instruction in a variety of instruments; academic subjects; personal training; driving; and yoga.
The list of skills represented is growing all the time.
No transactions take place on the marketplace, and rather than charging a fee to students or tutors, Instructo is run through renting ad-space to minimally intrusive ads.
Trainers have been very quick to give the marketplace endorsements across the board.
Jessica Graham, Academic Tutor, recently said, "I can see that Instructo is a wider 'educator' hunter resource – and it would be nice to have a site that isn't instantly bought out by the bigger (but often far from better) tutoring agencies and organizations who monopolize find-ability by paying for premium listings that the self-employed can't dream of competing against."
Academic Tutor, Laura Chalk, also remarked, "Instructo website is really nice, a lot smoother and more aesthetically pleasing than other tutoring sites. Great job! I will recommend Instructo to others."

text: Hey all, Blew something in my little amp and hoping someone might be able to help me figure out what's wrong and how to go about fixing it. My amp: Fender Blues Jr Cream board Basic BillM mods done a couple years back (no issues until now) One day while playing, there was a loud pop and then smoke and a burning smell. I shut it off immediately, and when I took the back off, the only issue I could see was the larger of the two fuses burned out. So I replaced the fuse, but then when i turned it on again, the rR33 resistor over the second tube from the left started smoking (and I *think* possibly that tube was glowing brightly too?). The burning appears to be where the lower arm of the resistor marked R33 joins to the ribbon cable to that second tube. I have a multimeter and a soldering iron and can order parts — anyone have any idea where to start diagnosing or fixing what's wrong?

Frequently asked questions and troubleshooting for Fritz AI. If you don't find what you're looking for, get in touch through our Help Center.
My app won't build because bundle identifier / application ID does not match API Key.¶
When setting up the Fritz SDK, you should have created a new iOS or Android application with the webapp and specified a package identifer. This identifier must match the bundle id (on iOS) and applicationID (on Android) that you build your project with.
If you're unsure which package id you entered into Fritz, you can find it by logging into the webapp, selecting Project Settings from the left navigation menu, and inspecting the Package Name column. If there is an error in your package name, you can delete your app with the drop down menu on the right and create a new one.
Does Fritz Vision work with images from my camera roll, an SD card, or a live camera preview?¶
Yes. Fritz Vision for iOS and Android is designed to work with any image whether it comes from a saved photo in a user's camera roll, a storage device like an SD card, or a live preview from a built-in camera.
Even if you don't see a tutorial or example project using the exact image type you had in mind, chances are Fritz Vision will stil work for your use case.
Can I use pose estimation to track people in 3D space?¶
At this time, Pose Estimation only tracks the movements and position of people in two dimensions. The location of keypoints are returned as (X, Y) coordinates relative to image boundaries.
If your application requires 3D motion tracking, get in touch via our Help Center.
Why is my model slow?¶
Neural networks are computationally intensive and older devices may not be powerful enough to provide completely smooth experiences. However, if your model is running slower than you think it should, there are a few things to check. When running prediction on an image, the image is processed in order to prepare it for the model input. Larger images can take longer to process so double check the size of the image you're passing into the
predictmethod. To get the best performance for video, make sure the preview size for each frame is set to a lower resolution (we recommend setting the preview size to 480x640 for the camera input).
To debug:
For Android, run your app in debug mode and check the for "Image Processing Time(ms)" and "Inference Time" in your logs.
- Image Processing Time(ms) - The time to prepare your image for the model
- Inference Time - The time for the model to run
Does Fritz require an internet connection?¶
No. All models run directly on-device and can be used without an internet connection. The Fritz SDK collects runtime performance information that is batched and periodically sent to the cloud, but transfers are typically very small and a lack of connectivity will not stop models from working.
cgImage on a mask is
UIImage s are backed by a
ciImage. This helps you decide when and how to render results from the
FritzVision APIs.
Swift version compiler errors.¶
If you're trying to build your Xcode project and are getting an error like:Module compiled with Swift 5.0.1 cannot be imported by the Swift 5.1 compile
This error means that you're currently trying to build your app using a different version of Swift than the Fritz SDK was compiled with. This frequently happens when new versions of iOS and Xcode are released. Make sure you're using the latest version of Xcode and targeting the proper Swift compiler version.
Starting with version 4.1.0, the Fritz SDK for iOS is fully compatible with Xcode 11, iOS 13, and should target version 5.1 of Swift.
How do I update a segmentation mask manually to fix errors or mask additional content?¶
Occasionally the segmentation result may not provide a completely accurate mask or you may want to allow a user to update the mask manually. You can achieve this by modifying the alpha mask directly.
- From the
SegmentationResult, export the alpha mask to a bitmap:
- Add or erase the desired pixels to the alpha mask by set the alpha to 0 if you want to remove it, 1 if you want to add the pixel. You'll have to implement this yourself.
- Use the alpha mask to cut out from the original image:
Bitmap finalResult = visionImage.mask(yourModifiedBitmap);
How do I use GPU-enabled models?¶
To enable the model to run on the GPU, you must explicitly set it in the predictor options.FritzVisionSegmentationPredictorOptions options = new FritzVisionSegmentationPredictorOptions(); options.useGPU = true; SegmentationOnDeviceModel onDeviceModel = FritzVisionModels.getPetSegmentationOnDeviceModel(ModelVariant.FAST); FritzVisionSegmentationPredictor predictor = FritzVision.ImageSegmentation.getPredictor(onDeviceModel, options);
In order for the model to run, the following conditions must be met:
- The predictor must be initialized in the same thread as it is called. For example, calls to
predictor.predict(visionImage)must be called in the same thread.
- The OpenGL context must be initialized before trying to load a GPU in a predictor.
Currently running models on the GPU is not supported with OTA model updates.
Still have a question? Get in touch through our Help Center.

The ganga project
The aim of the Ganga Project is to reach out to the hinterlands, especially the villages located along the banks of the Ganga. It started out in 2012, with our founder Sanskriti Singh visiting prathmik vidyalayas to teach primary kids in a fun and hands on manner. Each day, she would spend the mornings with the kids, teaching them basics through simple experiments and workshops. The idea being to give them a break from the 'mugging' ritual that our current education system encourages and get them thinking and questioning everything around them.
It was then, (more about the early experiment can be read here) and this is today now, in 2018. The Ganga Project is one dream that we at Sparkles Science just don't give up on.
Sparkles Science is a private trust that hosts hands-on science based activities for children to bring Science education alive for them. This trust is an education platform created to promote free and progressive thinking in children. Leading newspapers have covered our story. Here is one covered by Hindu and you can read it here. The FB Link for the organisation is here.
We are seeking to start a hands on science center in Varanasi. A Tinker lab where students and teachers can made scientific toys from trash and learn science around them with real hands on manner. A lab to promote fresh design thinking and support innovative methods of observing the world around us. To achieve its vision of hands on science popularization this center would be doing the following :-
1) Running different education programs through the Sparkles Science Club :-
A July - Jan Six month workshop on hands on science.
Workshops :- Festival science camps, Summer Science Camp
2) Publishing and making Sparkles Science Kit & Books :-
To spread and popularize alternative science in villages we would be doing complementary training of teachers and workshop of kids supported by science kits.
3) Annual science popularization programs: -
Science festival/ Science Exhibition / set up laboratories
Educator training / conduct workshops for parents /shows for schools
We are looking to partner with the Varanasi community, from parents group, education institutions who would want to support the cause of making hands on science for primary school kids a day to day thing in Varanasi. Please feel free to write to if you would like to collaborate, or if you have any advice.

It's absolutely true, the word "mature" gets thrown around a lot when speaking of products, services and programs - but what does it actually mean?
In trying to comprehend the meaning of the word as it applies to Software Security Assurance programs I felt like I needed to consult the dictionary - which sadly in this case just wasn't very helpful, hence a need to dig deeper.
The dictionary defines maturity as a state of full development, or perfect condition. Now, I can throw the second one right out when we're talking about security - because if we're talking about security and trying to define it as a 'perfect condition' then we're in the wrong ballpark.
We all know there is no such thing as a perfect condition when we refer to anything real in Information Security ...or any kind of security for that matter. There is no perfect, not in implementation in the real world, there is only good enough.
Let's move on to the first definition... a state of full development. What does full development mean?
Maybe we can define this mythical state as a point in time where the SSA program we're putting into place has reached an apex... but that's a little fuzzy and leaves too much room for guess-work, so let's keep trying.
I've sat here and thought about what a state of full development might mean to me if I was responsible for the security posture of the software powering my organization... and I'm repeatedly pulled back to the same answer I've given for years: "it depends".
What it depends on, of course, is relatively concrete and shouldn't change much from organization to organization (unless the organization itself is far out-of-line with the norm).
So let's approach the problem of defining maturity in a roundabout way then... let's define first what organizations look for and measure their security by, and then let's see if we can figure out how to measure or quantify what is full development by that series of criteria.
So then, what do organizations mostly care about? The first and most obvious answer is easy - money.
More specifically and to the point, spending as little of it, to make as much of it as possible. So what we're trying to figure out here is a maximal state of return where an organization pays as little as possible into the security 'fund' but gets maximum benefit out of it. While I can't tell you what that point is (as far as a dollar figure) I can tell you that spend should be as little as possible.
The next big item is organizational impact. Surprise, surprise, we're looking for minimal organizational impact and a maximum return on minimizing risk... This easily translates into "make me jump through as few hoops as possible to make me more secure" if you want to simplify it down.
Last but not least on the list of things organizations care about -and trust me, they care about this one -is latent risk. Obviously no organization says they want to be a target, or that they don't care for how much of their organizationally-critical assets they expose to attack or subversion... just that some do it by citing compliance, or other types of similar veins of risk. Whether the risk is financial or legal... organizations care about minimizing risk.
Well, so now we can say that organizations want to spend as little as possible, have as little (negative) organizational impact as possible and have as little latent risk as possible -so can we call a state where all 3 of these factors are at their low points a state of full development of the program in question? I would say yes, right?
So then... can we say that a state of SSA program maturity is one where an organization spends as little as possible, impacts the organization as little as possible and ends up with as little latent risk as possible? I could make a compelling argument that this is the case.
So then when I say an organization is mature, more importantly, an organization's SSA Program is mature I mean that they've minimized their spending (thus maximizing their efficiency), they're impacting their business in a minimal way, and have decreased latent IT-based risk to their business applications to an acceptable level.
For the record I would never say this is either easy or doable without a monumental effort on behalf of the entire business and IT organization ...or that it can be done over a 3 month project and some magic beans.
Thoughts on that?

REC: Braised Cabbage Rolls with Ham and Breadcrumb Stuffing

Posted to Thread #1228 at 2:43 am on Mar 23, 2006
This is Julia Child's version. It's really good, and also good cold the next day.
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
1 1-1/2 inch cube of Swiss Cheese, roughly diced
2 cups or so scraps or pieces of ham, trimmed of fat
2 eggs
1 large clove of garlic, pureed
1-1/2 cups fresh breadcrumbs.
Seasonings: salt, pepper, and sage
Drop the onion into a food processor and pulse into 1/4-inch pieces. Add the cheese and ham and chop with 5 or 6 pulses. Pulse in the eggs and garlic, then the crumbs. Season highly to taste.
Cabbage Rolls:
(for about 12 rolls)
The blanched leaves from an 8-inch cabbage (cut out the core, plunge into a big kettle of boiling water, nudge the leaves off with two wooden spoons, and let them simmer a few minutes.)
3 cups of the above stuffing
2 Tbs. butter
1 cup sliced onions
Salt and pepper
3-1/2 cups peeled, seeded and juiced tomatoes, cut up, (or drained Italian canned tomatoes, or a combination.)
2 bay leaves
Remove the tough part of the central stem from the lower part of the cabbage leaves, as necessary. Spread one leaf (or several small leaves combined) cupped side up on your work surface; divide the filling into 12 portions. Spread a cylinder of filling onto each leaf and roll up into a sausage shape, enclosing the filling completely.
Set a large skillet or chicken fryer over moderate heat with the butter, add the onions and saute for 5 to 6 minutes, until limp and translucent. Arrange the cabbage rolls best side up over the onions. Season lightly with salt and pepper, pour the tomatoes over them, and bury the bay leaves in the pan. Bring to the simmer, cover, and simmer slowly, basting occasionally, for about 30 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender. Taste and correct seasoning.
[I find they take longer to get really tender. I also find the stuffing recipe makes more than 3 cups, so I make a few more than 12]
May be braised in advance and reheated.
Suggested accompaniments: navy beans or boiled potatoes, or just good French bread--and a simple red wine.

Isaiah 53:3-5 King James Version (KJV)
3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

The Jihad of the Word
According to Syrian revolutionary thinker Said Hawwa in his influential book Min Ajl Khutwa (English: For the Sake of a Step), jihad may come in three flavors: by heart, by word, and by hand, a tripartite distinction derived from the hadith literature. The jihad of the heart is an ambiguous formulation: it can mean self-discipline or the passion and steadfastness applied to waging war. The jihad of the hand (also known as the jihad of the sword) is the most conspicuous in virtue of its immediate destructiveness. But the jihad of the word -- of indoctrination, propaganda, and institutional infiltration -- is perhaps even more menacing since it operates virally, as it were, infecting the organs of the open society with a view to its gradual demise.
In trying to resolve the predicament in which we find ourselves, to protect a way of life which is under attack and which we have far too long taken for granted, we would need to arrive at a means not only of averting terrorist assaults -- the jihad of the hand -- but of resisting the jihad of the word. This means, among other things, countering the mispractice of "lawfare," the deployment of frivolous and vindictive legal suits with the twofold intention of (a) blocking all criticism of Islam and (b) preventing the exposure of those who, whether explicitly or implicitly, abet the terrorists' aims.
In an article for the American Spectator Brooke Goldstein shows how lawfare is a form of "legal jihad," a technique for manipulating the courts to silence critics of Islam. This relies heavily on the practice of "forum shopping" or "libel tourism" whereby plaintiffs "bring actions in jurisdictions most likely to rule in their favor." Goldstein mentions one Rabiah Ahmed, a staffer for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, who acknowledged such lawsuits as an "instrument" in CAIR's bag of tricks.
Here in Canada, we have the travesty of our Human Rights Commissions, tribunals which can be accessed and mobilized free of charge -- that is, at taxpayers' expense -- by anyone with a complaint against ostensibly libelous or hate-provoking action, speech, or script. The defendant is presumed guilty from the start and must pay his own legal costs. Originally established to protect tenants against unscrupulous landlords and prevent discrimination on the worksite, these commissions, with the complicity of politically correct bureaucrats and profiteering human rights lawyers, have now been largely monopolized by offended Muslims who are intent on suppressing criticism of their faith, preachings, or actions, in other words, on muzzling free speech. For close scrutiny, as they rightly fear, will often lead to bad press.
They rely on Section 13.1 of the Canadian Human Rights Act, which defines hate speech as "likely to expose a person or persons to hatred or contempt." The formulation is so nebulous that it can be successfully applied against almost anything in print, which indicates that the tribunals are akin to kangaroo courts and show trials. There are always people, after all, ready to feel misprized by something they may happen to see, hear, or read. As a result, human rights are materially abrogated by Human Rights, rendered hollow by the very bodies created to uphold them. When one of the commission's investigators, a certain Dean Steacy, was asked what value he ascribed to freedom of speech, he replied: "Freedom of speech is an American concept, so I don't give it any value."
We should keep in mind that these commissions are unelected tribunals with no accountability under law, are not bound by the presumption of innocence or the rules of evidence, are ready to accept unqualified witnesses for the prosecution, permit uninvolved third parties to file complaints, admit hearsay, are staffed by untrained and incompetent judges, do not require that the willful promotion of hatred be proven or that plaintiffs be present, are consistently unfavorable to the objections of the defense, accept anonymous posts on YouTube as evidence, and, in sum, do not operate under the normal procedures of the criminal justice system.
But although these tribunals are not real courts, they wield real power: the right to impose fines, to prohibit the defendant from speaking out, to demand formal apologies, and to prescribe jail sentences if these conditions are violated. The Human Rights Commission is essentially a contemporary revival of the notorious Camera Stellata, or Star Chamber, which sat at Westminster until 1641, enacting its arbitrary rulings on politically motivated charges.
We need not go back to 1641 for paradigms. The Star Chamber has become a modern phenomenon. There is, for example, an uncanny and troubling resemblance between our HRC procedures and the implementation of the Pakistani blasphemy laws, introduced in the 1980s by the dictator General Zia-ul-Haq and enshrined in Section 295-C of the Pakistan legal code, which dispenses with valid evidence, accepts unfounded allegations brought by one individual against another, requires no proof of intent, and does not adequately define "blasphemy."
In one particular case, reported by Benedict Rogers of the Terrorism Awareness Project, the impressive length of the accuser's beard was sufficient to persuade the judge of the man's moral rectitude and the truth of his accusation. The judicial practice of our commissions is, at bottom, no less risible.

One Hundred Cities Was Just the Beginning!
By Jen Crozier.
Today marks the beginning of the next phase of IBM's Smarter Cities Challenge competitive grants program, which deploys teams of our top talent to perform pro bono problem solving for cities and municipal regions worldwide. We're building on the success of the program's first three years, during which 600 IBM experts on six-person teams provided strategic and practical advice to 100 cities. In all, IBMers provided more than 100,000 hours of business and technical expertise through this game-changing program that began in the company's 100th year.
Valued at USD $400,000 each, the three-week Smarter Cities Challenge engagements have helped cities address key challenges in the areas of economic development; water, energy and environment; health and social services; transportation; and public safety. During the course of forming partnerships with influencers and constituencies from government, citizen groups, businesses and nonprofits, we have gathered diverse perspectives on the causes and potential solutions to a variety of urban challenges. While each city is unique, our work has enabled us to identify common characteristics and themes that have improved the subsequent effectiveness of our teams.
We're excited about this next phase of the Smarter Cities Challenge, through which we will engage more deeply with our municipal clients – committing to the long haul to manage challenges that extend beyond the limits of mayoral terms of office; intensifying our focus on helping newly-elected city leaders get off to good starts to making their cities smarter; and extending our reach to help municipalities navigate the complexities of financing progressive programs and engaging their citizens.
Read the press release to learn how past Smarter Cities Challenge grant recipients have implemented our recommendations to improve the lives of their citizens.
Jen Crozier is Vice President, IBM Global Citizenship Initiatives.

They don't serve grasshoppers at El Jacalito. They serve many of the other dishes that make the cooking of Oaxaca unique in Mexico. But no chapulines — which I've had down there, and had North of the Border as well at a Oaxacan restaurant near downtown L.A. called Guelaguetza.
But at El Jacalito, you'll have to pass on the chapulines. Which is really no problem because there are half a dozen moles of many colors — a rainbows worth of moles.
There's also the Oaxacan tortilla creation called tlayuda, which is like a quesadilla on steroids — a big dish of many ingredients, all built around a corn tortilla. It's a wonderful dish.
But then, El Jacalito, an unexpected find on quiet Narbonne Avenue in Lomita, is a wonderful place to travel thousands of miles, without actually leaving the neighborhood.
It looks, strikingly, like the restaurants I like to go to in Mexico. They are affable destinations with some casual décor (the art on the walls has a pleasantly homemade, random quality), with tile floors, stucco walls in one of the two dining rooms — and numerous TVs showing soccer games.
The Mexican love of soccer approaches the obsessive. Fans show up wearing their team's colors, the cheers are loud, the enthusiasm infectious and the announcers have a way of dragging out every syllable!
El Jacalito (the name refers to a small adobe house) somehow manages to have an impossibly large menu — five pages of dishes, running from breakfast through a section of masa fresca (fresh corn meal) dishes, stopping for an extended visit in Oaxaca on another page, moving on to familiar Mexican combination plates on another, before plunging into numerous burritos and the toasty sandwich called a torta.
There's a children's menu as well — para niños of taquitos, tacos, quesadillas and burritos — and chicken-rice soup. Makes me wish I was a kid again.
Instead, I was here for the Oaxacan dishes, for they fill me with memories of my times spent exploring the Mayan ruins — Monte Alban, but also Mitla and Yagul. But most of my time in Oaxaca was spent at the many markets.
Especially the oldest of them, surrounded with shops selling mole in bulk, in colors and flavors never seen before, and never seen since. And eating chapulines from street vendors. All washed down with local mezcal.
With that first taste of the mole negro over chicken at El Jacalito, that feeling of being there came flooding back. This is not a modest mole, a mole that hides its spiciness. This is a bold, distinctive mole, ink dark, with a texture that's part sauce, and part pudding — somewhere between a liquid and a solid.
With that first taste — indeed, that first sight of the mole negro — you'll want to grab some extra napkins to keep it off your clothing. I suspect this is one of those sauces that will never wash out. It's not a supposition I wanted to test.
I loved the black mole. But I also adored the red mole — the mole coloradito — which seemed even more intense, made of red chiles and tomatoes, along with a pantry of other ingredients.
There are more — mole seguesa (red mole with corn), mole amarillo (yellow mole made with guajillo chiles), a squash seed mole called pipian, a yellow chile over beef rather than the usual chicken.
And there's even more — beginning with the tlayuda, which covers much of a plate, an oversized toasted corn tortilla, layer with aciento (cracklin's), black beans cheese cabbage, tomatoes, onions, avocados — and a choice of dried, jerky like cecina, its cousin dish tasajo, or the more familiar chorizo. It's a heck of a dish. And it travels home very nicely.
The Oaxacan dishes at El Jacalito are notable for being very meat heavy — there's beef liver with onions, pork ribs with cactus in a choice of chile salsas, chorizo in a red salsa, the aforementioned cecina and tasajo grilled with mushrooms and peppers.
On weekends, there are goat barbecue tacos, and pork head tacos. All that's missing is mezcal to wash it down — El Jacalito is beer and wine only.
And, of course, the chapulines. They're a great appetizer — like croutons with legs. But one bite of the mole negro, and any thought of eating bugs will fade away. Mole covers all other desires, as well as it covers the chicken.
