Madrid, the City That Never Sleeps
Madrid nightlife is a world reference. It is one of the world's liveliest cities, a city that never sleeps. Madrid nightlife is known because of its wide choice and its extensive schedule, unique throughout the world: it goes on all night until the sun rises! Madrid clubs and pubs are open all year, all week around. While in most European countries the party finishes around 3 am, in Madrid it extends until the small hours. Madrid's nightlife has something for everybody, whatever your preferences, age or nationality.
Spanish nightlife starts very late, no matter if you are going out for dinner or to party. Restaurants start serving dinner at 20.00 pm until 23.30 pm, and pubs don't get busy until 24.00. In fact, if you go at 24:00 to a club, you will find it empty. Madrileños like to be on the street all the time, going from bar to bar, from bar to nightclub, and from nightclub to after-hours.
After the fall of Franco's dictatorship, in the mid-eighties, Spain experienced a visceral change, going from a strong repression to a complete freedom. Currently it is raising the popular term "movida madrileña", which is related to a change in Madrid's nightlife.
Nightlife is so plentiful in Madrid that the city can be divided into night districts. Each one carries a special style, music or people.
Chueca (metro Chueca)
Chueca is the gay neighbourhood of Madrid, where gay and straight people can freely mix. It has the most diverse atmosphere of the city. Chueca nightlife is sleek and refined. The most fashionable restaurants in Madrid are located in this area.
Huertas (metro Sol)
Huertas is the Madrid tourist centre. This is the land of Irish pubs, pop music and foreigners and the perfect area to go and party from Monday to Thursday. There are some authentic tapas bars around.
La Latina (Metro La Latina)
La Latina is in fashion. It is the oldest part of the city and the perfect neighbourhood to have a quiet drink. La Latina is a Sunday afternoon favourite. You will find madrileños packed into the bars, drinking beer in the squares or chilling out at sought-after terrace spots. It is also a great area to try tapas, and have some drinks on any night of the week. It has a laid-back vibe.
Malasaña o zona de Fuencarral (metro Bilbao o Tribunal)
In Malasaña you'll find young, alternative, rocker and punk people. This is the most alternative area of the capital. Many people compare Malasaña with Camden Town in London or the East Village of New York. Malasaña may not be the counterculture hotbed it was during "La Movida", but it still packs a punch all around Plaza Dos de Mayo and its surroundings.
Lavapiés (Metro Lavapiés)
If you want to enjoy a multicultural atmosphere, head to Lavapiés. It's inhabited by hippies and a large immigrant population, but places to have a drink or a meal with a sleeker look are sprouting up everywhere. The prices here are a bit cheaper than the rest of Madrid. From Indian restaurants and Brazilian bars to clandestine chill-outs and flamenco locals or heavy metal pubs, Lavapiés is, hands-down, the city's multicultural scene.
Argüelles - Moncloa (metro Moncloa)
Located in the north west of the city, it is the prime university area. Here you'll find a young atmosphere from the early afternoon in the tapas area and cafes till night time. It is famous because of the "bajos de Argüelles": they are the basements or ground floors of the buildings, full of bars and pubs. Close to Argüelles there is Moncloa, with most of the electronic music clubs of the city.
Most nightclubs open from Thursday to Saturday from midnight. Closing time depends on the club, but usually it is stretched until 7:00 in the morning. For those who love to party, the after-hours are open until 12:00am the following day.

- Opening Address on December 5, 2019: The Hon. Wayne Caines, JP., MP., Minister of National Security, Government of Bermuda
- Theme for 2019: Speaking a Common Language: From On-Boarding to the Board Room
- Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) named Signature Partner
Toronto (June 10, 2019) – Registration has opened for the 2019 Bermudian edition of the International Cyber Risk Management Conference (ICRMC), event producers announced today.
Following its successful inaugural conference in Hamilton, Bermuda 2018, organizers of the ICRMC Bermudian event are proud to announce the launch of the 2019 event and that registration is now open. ICRMC Bermuda will take place December 4-6, 2019 at the Hamilton Princess & Beach Club. Conference programming and registration can be seen at bermuda.icrmc.com.
The theme of the second annual ICRMC Bermuda conference is Speaking a Common Language: From On-Boarding to the Board Room. The carefully curated agenda will focus on tangible takeaways that cyber risk stakeholders can use to strengthen resilience and improve cyber risk communication across their organizations and their supply chains. Bermuda, the 'World's Risk Capital', is the ideal market to host this vendor-neutral gathering of the global risk management community. The ICRMC Bermuda program has been designed for corporate risk managers, corporate counsel, auditors, CISOs, CSOs, and CTOs, governance and claims professionals, insurers, reinsurers, insurance brokers and service providers.
"We are thrilled to once again be partnering with the Bermuda Business Development Agency (BDA) and an outstanding advisory committee for ICRMC Bermuda," said Joel Baker, President and CEO of MSA Research, the producer of ICRMC. "As cyber risk is now ranked as one of the top two concerns facing the world, it is vitally important that the risk management community remain vigilant in their efforts", continued Baker, "and collaborate to address and resolve shared issues surrounding cyber risk."
Marilyn Horrick, COO and EVP, MSA Research added, "The agenda reflects the growing need for organizations to not only understand and act on their mitigation and risk transfer options, but to also continually assess real cyber exposure, competently recognize compromising cyber incidents, and effectively communicate those across all levels of their organization. Unpacking what it means to have a culture of cyber vigilance," Horrick continued, "is an important part of the agenda and speaks to every role in an organization from on-boarding to the board room".
A world-class Advisory Committee comprising of cyber risk experts from the fields of insurance, information technology, law, audit and compliance, governance and public policy has shaped the program for ICRMC Bermuda. The British Overseas Territory is a leading global re/insurance hub and the world's most significant property casualty market, supplying an estimated 35 percent of capacity for Lloyd's of London. Bermuda is also the largest domicile for captive insurance and insurance-linked securities.

Kit Harrington won't be away long from British screens after the recent Games of Thrones Season 7 finale as he is the star of BBC miniseries Gunpowder.
The three-part historical drama follows the story of the Gunpowder Plot, the 1605 attempt by a group of provincial English Catholics to blow up the House of Lords and kill King James I in order to help restore a Catholic to the throne. The plot was foiled on November 5 that year when authorities at Westminster Palace found Fawkes guarding the explosives. Brits still celebrate Guy Fawkes Night every year with bonfires and fireworks.
While he played a pivotal role, Fawkes did not devise the plan. The man who dreamed it up and was its driving force was Robert Catesby (Harington), a 30-year old Warwickshire gentleman and committed Catholic at a time when Protestant England persecuted the church's members relentlessly. Harington has previously revealed that he is directly descended from Catesby.
Checked out the teaser trailer below.
Gunpowder stars Kit Harrington, Liv Tyler, Mark Gatiss, Peter Mullan, Tom Cullen, Edward Holcroft, Shaun Dooley and Robert Emms.
The release date is still to be set.

MATE Explained: A Look at One of Linux's Most Enduring Desktops
Linux isn't like commercial operating systems. You aren't limited to one interface. Some options offer imaginative new layouts, while others maintain a more established approach. If you want an experience that has been around the block for a decade or two, then MATE may just be the one for you.
MATE is a Desktop Environment
A desktop environment contains everything you see on your computer screen. It's the panels that launch applications, display notifications, and show the time. It's what manages your windows and allows you to easily switch between them.
When you look at a screenshot, it's all the elements that make you think of Windows as Windows and macOS as macOS.
Windows and macOS each only provide one desktop environment. The drastic changes that surround new releases of Windows tend to be related to the desktop environment, such as the removal or addition of the Start Menu and changes to the theme.
Windows 8 had an interface catered more to touchscreens than desktops. People who disliked the change couldn't upgrade to Windows 8 if they wanted to keep the interface they were more comfortable with.
On Linux, this isn't a problem. You can always switch to another desktop environment Which Linux Desktop Environment Best Suits Your Personality? What kind of computer user are you? Do you leave icons scattered across your desktop? Do you prefer to work in one uncluttered application? Let's find out which Linux desktop environment suits you best. Read More and continue using the latest Linux software. And if your favorite interface is about to undergo a radical change, MATE is an example of how that doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to what's familiar.
A Brief History of MATE
MATE is based on GNOME, one of the most popular desktop environments for free and open source operating systems GNOME Explained: A Look at One of Linux's Most Popular Desktops You're interested in Linux, and you've come across "GNOME", an acronym for GNU Network Object Model Environment. GNOME is one of the most popular open source interfaces, but what does that mean? Read More like Linux. Though, to say MATE is based on GNOME is an understatement. MATE was born as a continuation of GNOME 2 after GNOME 3 was released in 2011.
The split happened because GNOME 3 introduced a new interface called the GNOME Shell, which departed from the traditional desktop design GNOME 3 Beta - Welcome To Your New Linux Desktop Read More . Since the project was open source, developers not happy with the change were free to take the existing GNOME 2 code and continue working on that instead. Doing this is called "forking" a project. An Arch Linux user called Perberos started the MATE project, with others quickly jumping on board.
While many Linux operating systems have embraced GNOME 3, MATE has attracted many users over the past half decade. Some of them started using Linux years after the split from GNOME. That means they're using MATE for reasons other than a resistance to change. Quite a few consider it among the most stable and versatile experiences Linux has to offer.
GNOME 2.0 launched in 2002. Thanks to the MATE project, this particular generation of GNOME has been going strong for a decade and a half.
How MATE Works
Windows and macOS function differently, but both depend on one panel. Windows has one across the bottom, and macOS has one across the top. In MATE, there's a panel both at the bottom and the top of the screen.
Unlike default GNOME, MATE lets you save applications and files to the desktop. A trash can icon in the corner of the bottom panel gives you quick access to your deleted files. You can also use this area of the screen to switch between virtual desktops.
Out of the box, users can make substantial tweaks to the interface. Basics include changing the theme, adjusting fonts, and altering application toolbars. You can go further by creating more panels or adding applets to the ones you already have, such as a dictionary widget or an investment tracker.
Want to give MATE a try? You can use MATE by installing a Linux operating system that has it built-in. Alternatively, you can download it for your current Linux OS. Once you've done this, restart your computer, and at the login screen, click the current desktop icon on the panel. From here you can switch from your current desktop environment to MATE.
Downsides to MATE
If you used a GNOME-based Linux operating system seven years ago, you know how MATE looks and feels. Firing up Ubuntu MATE today feels like launching a green-themed version of Ubuntu 10.10.
That's not to say that no work has gone into MATE since then, but in the latest version at the time of writing, the headline feature is the complete switch of all applications and components from GTK2+ to GTK3+. That means MATE now fully uses the same toolkit GNOME introduced as part of the move to version 3.0 six years ago.
To a certain extent, this can't be helped. The MATE community has a fairly conservative manifesto — to keep the traditional GNOME 2 desktop alive while maintaining compatibility with new technologies. In other words, MATE users will have to wait to integrate libraries and features that are often developed with other environments in mind. If you want to live on the bleeding edge of open source software, you may want to look elsewhere 5 Linux Operating Systems That Offer Bleeding Edge Updates Ready for an operating system that boasts the latest features? It's time to try one of these bleeding edge Linux distros. Read More .
Who Should Use MATE?
There's a reason MATE is gaining new users. The interface is pretty straightforward. If you like the Windows XP and earlier era of computers, this will feel right at home. There are some animations, but they're all subtle. You won't find any of the moving windows that irk some people when they first use the latest version of GNOME.
MATE also uses fewer resources than some of the more modern alternatives, meaning it works great on aging hardware. It's one of a handful of desktop environments we would recommend specifically for that purpose The Best Lean Linux Desktop Environment: LXDE vs. Xfce vs. MATE Tweaking your choice of Linux desktop environment can speed things up a lot. Here we look at three options: LXQt, Xfce, and MATE. Read More .
MATE is an ideal option for people who don't want their computing experience to change anytime soon. The interface isn't all that different from what it was like five years ago, and it will likely feel similar, if not the same, five years from now. It's not unlike Xfce in that regard Xfce Explained: A Look at One of Linux's Speediest Desktops If you've recently switched to Linux and are finding things a bit slow going, you probably need a lighter desktop environment. One good option is Xfce. Read More . If you like Xfce, there's a decent chance you would also like MATE, and vice versa.

It is Solstice eve, and I feel a yearning in my soul to be in the wild. I open my copy of Women Who Run With The Wolves and I read these lines:
We are all filled with a longing for the wild. There are few culturally sanctioned antidotes for this yearning. We were taught to feel shame for such a desire. We grew our hair long and used it to hide our feelings. But the shadow of Wild Woman still lurks behind us during our days and in our nights. No matter where we are, the shadow that trots behind us is definitely four-footed.
Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run With The Wolves
And I breathe out. Because I know I am not alone.

To determine the degree of damage occurring during preparation and storage of platelet concentrates, the percent release of B‐thromboglobulin (BTG) and percent leakage of the cytosolic protein lactic dehydrogenase was determined sequentially from phlebotomy to the end of storage for 72 h at 20–24°C. The effect of storage temperature, pH, and radiation was also evaluated. The results showed that during preparation of platelet concentrate a large degree of release was found after resuspension of the platelet button formed after the high‐speed centrifugation. During storage the percent BTG release increased from 18.1 to 40.2% (p<0.05). The percent release seen during storage at 4°C (72 h) was 19.2%, while that seen for platelets subjected to temperature cycling at 4–37 °C was 24.9%. Both of these values were significantly less (p<0.05) than that seen for concentrates stored at room temperature. A negative correlation between pH and BTG release was found (r=‐0.64). Irradiation to 10,000 rad did not induce the release reaction or lactic dehydrogenase leakage. We conclude that the degree of in vitro platelet release is dependent on the preparative manipulations, and gentler protocols for preparation and storage of platelets should be investigated.

Long before your house Complete Basement Systems construction starts, it is critical to assess the design plan as well as all of the related specifics November 28, 2015 at 2:14 pm. To be safe, here are a number of house design mistakes you have to stay away from.
Too many smaller rooms are less beneficial. Almost all potential property buyers these days, according to Katherine Washington, want a house with a couple of larger rooms instead of lots of smaller rooms.
Master bedroom near busy space is a big miscalculation. The main bedroom is your ultimate place to obtain energy after doing daily routines. A location with minimal activity Complete Basement Systems is the place you should position your master bedroom.
Excessive space linking kitchen and garage. You have to construct those two areas next to each other to easily bring goods from your car to the kitchen. In the property sector, residences 2101 having kitchen and garage designed next to each other generally entice more prospective buyers.
One more common error in developing a home design is dedicating a tiny space for the foyer. A smart home design Complete Basement Systems provides enough area for the foyer.

Civil 3D – 2010 Publish DWF
I have always been a huge fan of DWF publishing. I found a few new things, and thought I'd make a few notes.
Batch Plot
Selecting Batch Plot activates the publish dialog, and feeds it all the current drawings that are open. You get same publishing interface as the 'Select Tabs, right click and publish' that we were used to, but here you are not limited to selected layouts.
The publishing is similar to the previous version, however there are a few differences.
Civil 3D – 2010 where the …. did it go?
Ok. The interface is nice. I have had the pleasure for years of using a context based interface in Inventor. Civil 3D had had a slow migration of this in some parts of the application as well. There are times when, no matter how nice the interface is, you just can't find something.
Here's a good example. The edit menu->FIND. I used this a great deal to search and replace information. I use some * and keywords to index things in borders and text paragraphs when I don't want sheet sets. Find will replace the keywords at the tail end of the job, when I have more information.
It's not there. What gives. Here is a nice help feature to get you going.
Where Is My Command?
Go to help, and in the huge list of options (apparently they were prepared for a lot of questions…. I wonder, maybe they checked out the forums.
Civil 3D – 2010 Setup
Well, guess what came in the mail from Santa.
There were no surprises during the installation, but install configuration contained a bit more options than expected. There were a great deal of path settings, of which I suspect were some of the program data options. I left everything default except running all my Autodesk installs to the c:\Autodesk\ path as usual (instead of the c:\program files\ path). As I suspected, everything installed to the locations I had become accustomed to. If you don't like where you pipe catalogs, etc are being installed, you may want to make some path changes now.
For what ever reason, my registration wigged out.
I opted to try the website registration option. It took me to a panel, which used my subscription login. Once in, the registration interface asked for OS, and my serial number. Then it wigged out again.
Civil 3D – Point Style File Size Issue
If you hadn't noticed (I didn't), the size of your Civil 3D 2009 drawing will change depending on style factors.
A buddy of mine questioned me yesterday about some substantial differences related to the size of the drawing he was using, and noted that while he saved his site plan with trees (point styles) on, the drawing was twice the size.
I just tested it. I took a huge site plan, and saved it with trees on, and saved it with all point styles overridden to standard. Sure enough, I got a 30% reduction in size.
It appears that the application does not treat the Point style blocks as it treats normal blocks. Normal blocks are place holders, an entity shell that contains the standard DXF table entries for location, scale…….etc, and then upon regen, it goes to the block table, and pulls the information to display it, where the place holder says it should be. Instead of saving 40k 1000 times over, it stores 1 40k reference, and stores 1k 1000 times.
However, for point styles, it appears as though the application is treating the drawing as if it had 1000 different entities, and is storing all the reference information at each point location.
If anyone has additional input, please comment. Christopher, James, Dana, that means you!
Civil 3D – Clearing Object Dependencies
I was adding a large XML EG surface to a quick job, and noticed the usual XML garb brought in. After deleting some of them I ran into Object Dependencies (because I approached it in the wrong order), and thought I'd write this for the newbies.
Various objects in Civil 3D are dependent on others. Styles are included in this scenario as well. This is a good thing. These dependencies make the world go round. Surfaces are dependent on Point data and Feature lines. Profiles are dependent on Alignments, and The alignment is dependent on the Visual Alignment style. It makes the object oriented world go round.
The downside is when you need to delete something, and it just won't go, in fact, the option to delete is just not there. Like below:
There is no delete options. The reason is that this Object is being referenced by another. In this case we'd need to know what that is. unfortunately, there is no good way to determine that except to plow through the design in the Prospector.
Hey Autodesk, how about "Go To Dependency" or similar type function!
Anyhow, in this case a surface is using the object.
Here, once we delete the Point Group from the Surface Definitions, the Dependency will clear, and I can delete the group.
Civil 3D – Point Style Default
I thought I had something on this, but I couldn't find it.
One reader was having trouble with the default points. He wanted to do some specific point styling for a specific purpose, but regularly, and to that I offer to following possibilities:
Best Solution –> Description Keys!
Set a permanent Key and use FG perhaps as the description code, and the application will assign the Point Style and Point Label Style as specified in the keys. This is hard coded to the point.
Next –> Point Groups
Us FG as the description code and crate a Group up at the top to trap all FG codes, and specify the Style and Label Style there. This is only as permanent as the group remains at the top of the list.
Lastly –> Point Defaults
Set the current default Point and Label style to what you want in the Create Point command settings. Then all the points you set will default to the FG style.
Subscription Renewal – Musical Chairs and Subscriptions?
Recently I got a tip that I could drop some seats off of my subscription, and pick them up for pennies on the dollar.
Hmm… One of the vendors really wants my renewals. Good! I think I just found out how to get past this year, and get a decent deal too.
Well, if there is a good angle, someone will figure it out pretty quickly, and plug the hole. Starting March 16th, to pick up a dropped subscription seat will now run you 50% cost.
That scenario will no longer work for me (which is what the mothership expected). So much for the bennies I was trying to pull together, as well my Christmas bonus and the petty cash for Vegas.
If you are renewing, and planning on a little musical chairs with the subscription seats, you may want to talk with your VAR or ISV.

Isabela (Pre Romance) - Dragon age II
|So far I have made a start on all aspects of the costume but need to train my mindset to actually finish them -____-'
I would say the easiest part has been the shoulder and elbow pads. The hardest I would say.... could be trying to actually find blue swirly fabric for the bandanna and waist/sewing faux leather gloves by hand/ using a bra as a base for the corset then working out what to do next with the ridiculousness.
I have learned how to paint elephant looking skin onto leatherette (faux leather for the boots) and that I should not be trusted with hand stitching.
The necklace has gone surprisingly well given that it looks like a deathtrap when worn.
Eeee love the boots XD and the daggers.
great progress can't wait to see the finished product :)
DEM BOOTS. Loving this. Your daggers look like they're going to be awesome.
looking groovy, almost wish i was doing hawke for a reason to flirt lol
Looks brilliant! Hope to get some photos with you at expo :) (i'll be Lady Hawke) :D
this looks amazing! Isabela looks so great! :D hopefully will be seeing you at expo?! i'm one of the organisers of the DA meet-up and will be going as Fem Hawke :D would love to see you and get pics!
Da'yum. This is stunning, excellent work. I love the neck torc!
you make an awesome Isabela! =]
Your are very beautiful in this costume.

"Making it on the Playground" began as an attempt to keep my foot in the door in the field of the education of blind children, something I am passionate about. As a certified teacher of blind students, orientation and mobility specialist, and former director of education for the National Federation of the Blind, I wanted to find a way to continue my work in improving the quality of education for blind children after leaving my career to start my own family. Shortly after having my daughter, however, my focus for this site changed.
One day as a new mom, I took my daughter to a playgroup at a local park with some moms from my church. My daughter was less than a year old, but it was a great opportunity for me to get out of the house and make some "Mom" friends. As I sat there watching all the other moms monitor where their children were on the playground, tend to their needs with ease, and pack everyone back up neatly into their SUV's and minivans, I felt extremely overwhelmed and thought to myself, "How am I ever going to make it on the playground?" These ladies seemed to epitomize the quintessential mom and I wanted to be like them, only I wasn't. I was a blind mom. I couldn't sit back and scan the playground to see where my child was, or jump into my SUV after the park, drop off overdue library books and pick up a few groceries all on the way home. To top it off, my husband is also blind, so we were going to have to overcome some hurdles. I had a lot in common with these moms, and I knew I could learn a lot from these more experienced parents, but where was I going to learn how to be a blind mom? Resources for blind parents were few and far between.
Not long after this experience, I found myself feeling a greater need to write about my experience as a blind parent. So, this site became a platform for that. I soon realized that I wasn't going to do everything in the same way as other moms did, but this was okay. I didn't have to. I now have three children and a bit of parenting experience under my belt, but there is still a lot that I have to learn. I constantly have to remind myself not to get caught up comparing my parenting experience to that of other sighted parents. We each have different strengths and challenges. As long as I'm doing the best I can, providing for my children, and giving them the love that they deserve, it doesn't matter that we don't own a car, or that my kids wear bells on their shoes, or that I use braille books to read stories to them.
As I continue to develop this site, I hope that it will be a resource for other blind parents as we share the experience of living with blindness. Sometimes the posts are instructional or advice driven. Others are about funny blind moments. And some are just me sharing my feelings as I work through the hard times' blindness can often present. In any case, I hope that those of you who drop by will find something that aids and inspires you in making it on your own playground.

This is wonderful Mary Jo. I work with many preschool teachers serving students with visual impairments. I plan to share your blog. Keep it up.
I just found this blog, and I love it! I am finishing up my first year as a TVI (teacher of students with visual impairments) and I have a long previous career in early childhood music and movement. I know I am going to learn a lot from you – thank you.
I just found your blog and I would like to ask some questions if you don't mind. I'm a university student from Thailand on my fourth year and I am doing a thesis topic on redesigning a Braille book. It will be very nice to get some information and opinion from you for my research. Can I have your email? Thank you very much 🙂

St Saviour, Jersey
Langtry Gardens is a secure, estate-managed mixed development of traditional private and social rented cottages and apartments, with community facilities, for the over-55s. The cottages are planned around beautifully landscaped courtyard gardens.
Outside the community centre we supplied the main entrance handrails, railings on top of the garden wall and first floor balcony balustrades to the front and rear elevations. This was all manufactured in mild steel with intermittent floor-fixed 50 x 50 rolled hollow section posts and 40 x 10 convex handrails. This was finished in gloss black polyester powder-coat.
Inside the community centre, we supplied the internal stair handrail and balustrade system, in 304 grade stainless steel in a satin brushed finish. This features 50 mm diameter posts with fixing plates for face-mounting direct to the concrete stair risers, with glass clamps and 50 mm handrail. All glazing panels are in 10 mm thick clear toughened safety glass with polished edges.

I made Chicken Tostadas...very easy and yummy. A very similar recipe to Chicken Tucson.
Here is what you need:
1 package of left over chicken
4-6 tostados
1 can refried beans (you can substitute black beans)
1 small onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2-3 cloves of garlic, crushed and chopped
some grated cheese for topping
1 avocado, sliced for topping
salt/pepper to taste (I added a few dashes of beef fajita seasoning as well)
In a skillet over med heat, saute your garlic, onion, and bell pepper. In a small saucepan, warm up the beans. Once vegi's are softened, add the chicken to warm thru. Grate your cheese and slice up the avocado. Just take a tostado, load it with a layer of beans, add some of your chicken mixture and top with a little cheese, salsa and avocado...yum!
Very yummy and we still had plenty of left-overs...I know what I'll be having for lunch today!
Happy Cooking and thanks for joining in on the Rubber Chicken Challenge! Feel free to snag a button!

Great for Teric Dive Computer
Review by Bryan R. on 4 Aug 2020 review stating Great for Teric Dive Computer
This is one of my dive computer watchstraps. It fits around the all my exposure gear easily. I do wish they made other colors especially the hardware (PVD coated) would be sweet. I try to talk all my friends and students into upgrading to this strap to secure their $1000 computers since the rubber ones can fail much easier than a double NATO strap.

Benjamin Howell on The Battle of the Three Emperors – Austerlitz
The Military History Society of New South Wales Incorporated presents
Benjamin Howell
The Battle of Austerlitz was the zenith of Napoleon's star which was fought December 2, 1805 (the first anniversary of his Coronation as Emperor of the French), and marked the climactic end of the War of the Third Coalition (August–December 1805). The Battle of Austerlitz is also known as the Battle of the Three Emperors, because Napoleon, Emperor Franz of Austria, and Alexander I were all present. This battle is seen as a tactical, decisive, and brutal masterpiece of the same stature as Cannae, the celebrated triumph by Hannibal some 2,000 years before.
Benjamin Howell has studied the Napoleonic Wars for the past 20 years and has previously presented to the Society on the Russian, Spanish / Iberian, and the Waterloo campaigns. The lecture will cover the Third Coalition and the penultimate destruction of it in less than 4 hours at Austerlitz.
Saturday, 14 May 2016, 2.00pm – 3.00pm
Anzac Room, 99 York St Conference and Function Centre, Sydney
Entry is free. RSVP is essential by Wednesday 11 May 2016 as numbers are restricted (02) 9660 7225 / 0418 400 825 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

The bombing of the
building in Oklahoma City is one of the most sensational experiments
ever conducted on the American people. Everyone thinks there is
a Government cover-up. The truth of the matter is there is no Government
cover-up. The Government wants you to think that there is a cover-up.
On the first day of the bombing when they kept reporting that there
were more bombs in the building when actually there weren't.
They want you to think that there were more bombs
in the building. Then in a few hours they changed their story after
heavily reporting the existence of more bombs. You see the reason
they committed such a tragic event was to keep you glued to the
television. The bombing was committed to see how malleable the minds
of the American people are.They needed something sensational
to keep you tuned in. The bombing's only purpose was to see if the
people would have a complete lack of memory not just day to day
but hour to hour. The bombing was not about passing laws or attacking
the patriot or militia movement. It was about time factors and the
malleability of facts after they are presented over and over. They
actually killed more than one bird with this stone.
They then proceeded to get people to say that there
was a cover-up happening. That is what they want you to think. If
they can't convince you that there is a cover-up, then it proves
beyond a shadow of a doubtjust how non-thinking the American
people are. This was by far one of the most high risk maneuvers
ever by the Government. But, they needed to know. The results are
astounding, most people are convinced that Timothy McVeigh in a
Ryder truck did it. Other people think that the Government did it
and that they screwed up and are trying to cover it up.
The truth is Timothy Mcveigh didn't do it, the Government
did it and the Government is NOT trying to cover it up. Actually
everything went as planned and is still going that way. There are
numerous books and tapes about the supposed cover-up. People who
are producing these tapes and books don't know it, but they are
doing the leg work. The American people do not understand psychology
and the experimentation that isperformed on their minds on a
daily basis. I would venture to say excluding lawyers and their
kind, that maybe one in a hundred thousand understand what the bombing
of the Murrah Building was for.
[[See APFN web page:
A great example of symbolism is their Gold Fringed
Flag. Which according to various pretend Army regulations and executive
order signifies when flown in a courtroom, that the court is a Military
court. I know they laugh when someone argues with a pretended judge
that his court is a Military court. The person does not seem to
realize that he has just acknowledged that he is insane because
he just called the room in which he is standing a courtroom. When
in fact there is no such thing. [[See APFN web page:
http://www.apfn.org/apfn/flag.htm ]]
An exceptional act that these pretended judges and
lawyers are not laughing about is a process that is known as Redemption.
Does this process work? You bet it does. The Redemption Process
is entirely based on fictions. By engaging in this Process known
as Redemption life is being breathed into the ultimate fictional
code that binds their fictional system together.
This fictional law is known as the Uniform Commercial
Code. People pretend that they are a creditor instead of pretending
that they are a debtor. This allows people to do anything they want
and not be prosecuted for it and if one really understands the Uniform
Commercial Code, one can purchase anything one wants without having
to labor like the rest of the slaves. The act of acknowledging the
Code brings the entire pretended government to life. When you pretend
to be a creditor instead of a debtor the pretended judges and lawyers
become your servants. You have to know exactly what you are doing
or they will warehouse you. The Uniform Commercial Code is the rules
of the Hallucination. That is why the Redemption Process is successful.
The idea and concept that in order for me to trade goods and
services withsomeone on the other side of an imaginary line,
I must pay a pretended tax with pretended money (a few electrons)
known as a tariff. Tariffs were created for one reason and one reason
only. That reason is so you would think that there is a such thing
as a Country. Countries are needed to keep people divided so that
wars can be manufactured. The wars also serve the purpose of making
you think that there is such a thing as a Country. By keeping the
people divided it becomes necessary in the minds of the people to
have a Government to protect them from the bad Countries. Of course
what you think is a bad Country is the good Country in the eyes
of the people who live there and your Country is the bad Country.
Much of the division is based on religion. People will readily commit
acts of genocide in the name of their religion.Marriage
is a really strange concept. You purchase a license from a pretended
government with electrons. Then you enter into a building that has
a large phallus on top of it. Then you stand in front of an agent
from the International Monetary Fund and take a vow that you will
have sex with the same person for the rest of your life which of
course you know isn't true. Not only do you enter into a contract
with the other person, but the pretended government that you purchased
the License from is also a party to it. Actually it is the controlling
party. It is also an alter-ego of the International Monetary Fund.
I have this all documented. I almost forgot: most of the buildings
that people get married in, also fly the Gold Fringed Flag.
Voting is total lunacy. You vote for pretended Senators,
Representatives and a President who are your sworn enemies. Don't
believe it? In march of 1933 the "Trading with The Enemy Act" was
amended declaring those who call themselves "citizens of the United
States" the enemy. That is how Frank captured the gold, by executive
order from the American people. You are literally the enemy of the
Fictional U.S. Government.
America is not in a moral crisis. America is in
an Intelligence crisis. Over 50 percent of American's have an I.Q.
between 90 and 110. This allows them to eat, sleep, labor and breed
but not much more. It is an impossibility for most American's to
understand even the simplest of abstract concepts or to follow the
simplest of instructions. Logic, analytical and quantum reasoning
are completelyout of the question. Most American's are functionally
illiterate. THIS IS NOT THEIR FAULT! It is because of the food supply
being deficient in nutrition. American's lack of intelligence is
also caused by vaccines, pharmaceuticals,fluorides, detergents,
industrial cleaners commonly called shampoo etc.Americans have
been poisoned.
Less than 0.5 percent of American's have an I.Q.
of 140 or over. Most of these people rule over the others. Take
lawyers for example. You just don't decide to be a lawyer. After
four years of schooling you have to take the LSAT. The LSAT is a
test based mostly on analytical reasoning. The LSAT plays a major
role in what Magic Law School one may be accepted into. Not all
Magic Law School's are created equal. Yale University only accepts
3 percent of the applicants. Now a buffoon would not even apply
to such a prestigious School so, we are talking the best of the
best and out of them only three percent are accepted. So after four
years of schooling in a pre law program you have to attend Magic
Law School for three years in order to become a lawyer. Even after
all of that you still must pass the BAR exam. To be a 'Magic Law
Man' (Lawyer) it takes a lot of study,discipline and intelligence.
I don't like lawyers but, I do like watching them work their magic.
I really enjoy reading their magic papers such as motions and briefs.
To me, watching a lawyer at work is by far the most enjoyable activity
one can engage in. Even after all of the horrible things that lawyers
have done to me, I still enjoy them. All lawyers lie. They have
to in order to keep the people hallucinating. Lawyers will ever
tell the truth. No one would believe them anyway.
They want your mind. They even are confident enough
to report it in the Congressional Record. For example:"We
need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society.
The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates
from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. The individual
may think that the most important reality is his own existence,
but this is only his personal point of view. This lacks historical
perspective. Man does not have the right to develop his own mind.
This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. We must electrically
control the brain. Some day armies and generals will be controlled
by electric stimulation of the brain." Dr. Jose M.R. Delgado, Director
of Neuropsychiatry, Yale University Medical School, Congressional
Record, No 26, vol. 118 February 24, 1974.
People have to come to grips with the fact that
enlightenment is the casting off the bonds of concept (ignorance)
so that one may directly perceive the inexpressible nature of undifferentiated
reality. For some reason that I do not understand, people do not
look at undifferentiated reality the same as an enlightened being.
Words only represent (re-present) something else. Words are not
real things. In an illusory reality everything is a symbol. The
reality of symbols is illusory.One must understand that
governments are brought into your mind through symbols such as flags,
codes, constitutions and statutes which are the will of your Master
being imposed on you.
Undifferentiated reality can not be expressed. Symbols
cannot be used todescribe it. Enlightenment is a state of being
and it is not describable. People seem to want to make the description
of the state of being, the state itself. A state of being is an
experience. A description of a state of being is a symbol. Symbols
and experiences are not governed by the same rules.
Max Born wrote: The ultimate origin of the difficulty
lies in the fact (orphilosophical principle) that we are compelled
to use words of common language when we wish to describe a phenomenon,
not by logical or mathematical analysis, but by a picture appealing
to the imagination. Common language has grown by everyday experience
and can never surpass these limits.

I hope you learned someting from the Essays. Stephen
wrote hundreds of them. Some of them will never be released because
they are extremely controversial and would really upset just about
everyone. However, to see what a Police State Pennsylvania is go
to www.prisoners.com.
This site is dedicated to showing the world what is happening in
Pennsylvania. You won't believe it. There are hundreds of examples
on this site of the absolutely twisted actions of the people of
Pennsylvania. I'm not going to tell you exactly what is on the site,
you will have to see it for yourself. It is beyond your wildest
nightmares. Read everything in the Public Enemies section in its
entirety first. There are about a hundred articles in this section
alone. You will never come to Pennsylvania again after reading them.
Another web site dedicated to the tens of thousands of atrocities
committed here in Pennsylvania recently is
(site may be down.)

Hello Pom-Poms!
As my blog suggests, I TRAVEL… So, how can I not mention to you guys what are my travelling essential for any trip. I have to have these items with me and they are not some sunscreen type essentials which is necessary too (by the way) but this list is more about the things which are emergency requirements or one tends to forget easily but are really helpful in times of need.
As my blog suggests, I TRAVEL… So, how can I not mention to you guys what are my travelling essential for any trip. I have to have these items with me and they are not some sunscreen type essentials which is necessary too (by the way) but this list is more about the things which are emergency requirements or one tends to forget easily but are really helpful in times of need.
I am taking into consideration that you can be a tourist or a backpacker; both have totally different set of requirements in terms of their trip but these 10 essentials come handy for both of you travelling souls.
Stranded in some strange place at night with no lights, not a pretty picture…So, this is a must have and you may think that I am going to stay in a hotel and not some forest then shall I tell my incident about a night in luxurious hotel in Patnitop, we were without lights even in the rooms as after the 1st night inverted backup was shut and there was no current in the mountains for whole 2 days of our stay. Pack it up either ways as it won't take much of your bag space.
In this digital age, it's useless to mention this one buddy, I know but I could not, not mention it. You may not forget to pack it in your luggage but you may forget to take it with you on your outing only to get reminded when you wish to take videos or photos.Yeah! This happened with us once. So whenever you are going out and about on sight-seeing remember to get your camera.
|Click IIMAGE to BUY or see more camera options :)
You don't take this one lightly either…a backpack can make or break your experience. I have been more of a tourist to places but I still prefer my backpack to a trolley as whenever in bus or trains, it's much easy to carry around plus every individual is responsible for their own packs. It's easy to move and go places with your luggage on your shoulders than to carry them un-comfortably in hands or drag them on high mountains (just to give you mild picture).
I myself am planning to buy a new-one as so far I have been using my laptop-backpack(which is giant and spacious) as my travel go to. Buy with me :
|Click the IMAGE to BUY this small Backpack style Travel Bag
|Click the IMAGE to BUY this large trekking Travel Bag
Again not goofing with this one, feet comfort is priority while you are travelling so invest in quality sport shoes. Wherever you go, it's not always that you travel by cars and vehicle…you gotta walk and sometimes a lot hence to save your feet from dying by the end of the day, buy something which comforts not strangle them.
Hygiene Kit:
There are rules to everything and with public transports rule is wash your hands before eating as you never know what germs you carry with yourself by touching places. Your outer body can adapt but your insides might not digest the germs. Keep your hygiene kit handy always, what to keep in it has to comply of soap, hand wash, sanitizer, small comb, shampoo, tooth brush, paste and lotion (buy the small handy bottles).
This whole Kit comes with a clear pouch and bottles/jars can be refilled with your favourite products.
Click the IMAGE to BUY
New place, new food, new atmosphere, new climate, unhygienic places can make your body flip, keep some general medicine apart from your necessary ones(in case you are diabetic or on other prescribed medication).
Medicine for dysentery, fever, cold, digestives, glucose/ORS, sprain ointment, allergy related pills…these are what I keep in mine and they have treated me time and again on my trip.
|Click IMAGE to BUY this Kit, its cheap yet holds all essential items in case of wounds and cuts
At all times keep your water bottle filled and something to munch on like chickpeas or peanuts which give you strength too. Rest what to fill in your kitty is up to you, what you wish to eat but make sure of the essentials first.
Mosquito Repellent:
Travelling won't be fun if you are bugged by bugs on the long walk down the beach or mountains, keep this travelling essential in your backpack and you are sorted. With increasing fatal diseases due to mosquito bites, you don't wanna get bitten by one on your trip to place of your dream.
Power bank/backup:
Power source to make sure your cell-phone and camera batteries are charged at all time is also a good idea. While on vacation, some part of you still feels safe to be connected to your family and sometimes you might not have electricity so have power backup and be assured.
|Click IMAGE to BUY
Do look out for the weather of the area you are visiting, mountains or plains, hot or cold, sunny or cloudy and pack your clothes accordingly. Whenever planning a trip to snow mountains, do keep a warm pullover in whatever month you are visiting as climate shifts rapidly in such areas.
As you might know, I recently have been to Manali in the month of September and it was supposed to be humid there(according to weather apps...FYI don't trust them always) so I didn't pack any warm clothing…(last moment 'why to carry extra luggage' thought) but was I ready for the surprise of chilled breeze touching my face and making my cheeks turned red aka pale. I couldn't handle it and ran up to the closest market for Jackets and bought myself a trendy one ;) but imagine you are in some place where amenities are not readily available then not to pass out in cold weather keep it (that jacket/cardigan of yours). Same goes for rainy and plain terrains, get your homework done.
I would have suggested mini tool kit too but it might not be travel friendly for airport and railways in some places but if you are planning a local trekking and journey by bus, do carry a small tool kit/item with you...its handy at times. :)
Another travel essential tip from me to you would be TRAVEL LIGHT, plan yours clothes in advance and take out as much as possible. Pack yourself some must haves and rest use the mis & match philosophy, it helps you reduce the luggage and make some trendy choices for your traveling affair.
COMMENT below what are your 'Travel Essentials' and SHARE some love at this traveller's corner.

Watch the video and do the tasks to learn more about writing Essays.
Task 1
Watch the interview with the business lecturer above. Decide if the statements below are true or false or not stated according to the lecturer.
Task 2
A student from the year above you gives you the following pieces of advice. Decide if you think they are good or bad.
Andrew international replied on Sri Lanka
Dear Sir
Please let me know this: the conclusion of an essay is a summary of the introductory paragraph or is it a summary of the whole paragraphs in the essay including the introductory.
Thank you.
Peter M replied on Poland
Hello Andrew international,
There is no fixed rule about this and there are many different types of essay with different structures, but in general I would say that the conclusion should summarise the main argument of the text and not introduce new points. Thus the conclusion does not summarise a part of the essay but rather summarises the main thesis as developed throughout the text.
Best wishes,
The LearnEnglish Team
gracemaryanne replied on Philippines
Thank you Peter, and to the rest of Learn English team! This site is really helpful. (:
Keep up the good job! I hope you never lose passion for helping students who eagerly wants to learn and improve their English skills.
Again, many thanks!
gracemaryanne replied on Philippines
Hi! I don't know if this is a relevant question, but I'm really curious about this.
There are differences with UK and US English spelling. For instance, the s and z, or s and c in certain words. I wonder if these affects the scoring of the writing part of the exam? Sometimes, when I practice Academic writing, I get confused if I should adjust to UK spelling instead.
Many thanks!
Peter M replied on Poland
Hi gracemaryanne,
The IELTS guidelines state the following:
A range of native-speaker accents (North American, Australian, New Zealand and British) is used in the Listening test, and all standard varieties of English are accepted in responses in all parts of the test.
You can read more about IELTS, and find many useful preparation materials (including practice tests and sample answers) on the British Council's site for IELTS candidates: TakeIELTS.
You can find preparation courses at British Council Teaching Centres in your area, and also check where and when to take the test.
Best wishes and good luck!

Komang Sukarma replied on Indonesia
Dear Team,
Hello, I'm Komang from Bali-Indonesia. How are you today?
I am very happy and thankful for the recordings British Council provided.
This oppurtunity, I'd like to ask something please? So, how do you explain these words' differences: see, seem, sees, seemed (or maybe there're other similiar words) ? what are their correct grammatically order? etc
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Thank you very much.
Kirk replied on Spain
Hello Komang,
There are two different verbs here: 'see' and 'seem'. 'sees' and 'seems' are third person singular present simple forms; 'saw' and 'seemed' are past simple forms. If you're not sure about a word, you can use the dictionary – see the search box under Cambridge Dictionaries Online on the right side of this page.
All the best,
The LearnEnglish Team
awal.bd replied on Bangladesh
Can we use the adverbs "presently", "shortly" to modify the verbs of present perfect tense?
Kirk replied on Spain
Hello awal.bd,
I'm afraid that very general questions such as this one are very difficult to answer completely accurately, but I'd say that in general, no, these two adverbs don't work well with the present perfect. If you have a question about a specific sentence, by all means please ask. Also, why don't you look them up in the dictionary – see the search box on the right side of this page – to see what tenses are used in the example sentences.
Best wishes,
The LearnEnglish Team

I have listened many people saying ' I would like to thank Mr. XYZ ' . Is 'would' being used here to make this sentence Unreal ?

The Smethcote Summer MasterClass 2020 Crowdfunding Launch
Hello my followers,
I am fundraising for my brand new project The Smethcote Summer MasterClass 2020 that will take place at the beautiful Smethcote church you can see behind me at this video.
Through my project I want to support young talented musicians, bring tutors, my colleagues and dear friends form all over the world to Smethcote, England. Unite local communities and businesses through music, different styles of music as well as contribute to a restoration of the church building.
Check out the SSM crowdfunding profile:
THANK YOU for joining me on this incredible journey!

The music of the people is like a rare and lovely flower growing amidst encroaching weeds. Thousands pass it, while others trample it under foot, and thus the chances are that it will perish before it is seen by the one discriminating spirit who will prize it above all else. The fact that no one has as yet arisen to make the most of it does not prove that nothing is there.
Antonín Dvořák
I have composed too much.
Antonín Dvořák
The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between.
Wolgang Amadeus Mozart
All I insist on, and nothing else, is that you should show the whole world that you are not afraid. Be silent, if you choose; but when it is necessary, speak—and speak in such a way that people will remember it.
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
I worked hard. Anyone who works as hard as I did can achieve the same results.
Johann Sebastian Bach
Bring me coffee before I turn into a goat!
Johann Sebastian Bach
I wish you music to help with the burdens of life ,and to help you release your happiness to others.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Music is a higher revelation than all wisdom and philosophy. Music is the electrical soil in which the spirit lives, thinks and invents.
Ludwig van Beethoven
Choose only one master – Nature.
Practice what you know, and it will help to make clear what now you do not know.

One of the biggest pushes in tech right now is high resolution. Whether we're talking cameras, displays, TVs, tablets, phones, or laptops, the higher resolutions are more sought after and desirable.
This is all for good reason, too. Hi-res displays are gorgeous: making text sharp as print and pictures more lifelike. Everything just looks better when there is more pixel density. Though subjective, this fact is barely debatable. Show 100 people the same content on low-res and hi-res screens and I'd bet 100/100 would prefer the hi-res setup.
Hi-res Has A Fault
There is one issue with higher resolution screens, though. In simple terms, hi-res displays require more processing power.
Screens have refresh rates and that means that 30-60 (or more sometimes) times per second, your processor is refreshing your screen. This creates animation of things like mouse pointers, cursors, and scrolling websites.
When these refreshes happen, the difference between work that needs to be done by the processor varies greatly between more standard resolutions and higher ones.
Think about it this way: a full HD screen (1920×1080) contains 2.07 million pixels. That's a lot. And, on smaller screens, it is quite sharp. Screens over 15-inches start to show some pixelization, though, and that is why we are seeing more hi-res options.
We now have plenty QHD (2560×1440) and 4K (3840×2160) displays to choose from. These displays look amazing and deliver the illusion of having no visible pixelization to the naked eye.
Again, they are great to look at.
However, lets look at those pixel counts. QHD comes in at 3.67 million pixels, while 4K comes in at a whopping 8.29 million pixels. When compared to FHD 1080p, those numbers go from almost double to quadruple the amount of displayed pixels.
Consider that, when displaying 4K, your CPU is doing the work of 4 1080p screens. Do the math. Exactly 4.
Now, if we hooked up 4 displays to your current setup and had something moving or running on each screen, we'd all expect the performance to struggle compared to running the same tasks on a single 1080p screen, right? This makes complete sense, yet when we start pushing a 4K screen and performance drops, some people don't understand why.
4 times the pixels is why.
'Scarlet' and the Samsung Chromebook Plus
The new Chomebook tablet 'Scarlet' looks to be sticking with the pretty modest 1024×768 display. On a smaller, 8-inch device, this isn't the worst thing in the world. The original iPad Mini was this exact size and resolution.
It also carries the same internals as the Samsung Chromebook Plus, a device some have described as a bit laggy and slow. We've enjoyed the Plus, but compared to other devices, it hiccups quite a bit.
And I attribute much of that to its gorgeous, hi-res display.
That thing is crazy-good, beautiful to look at, and makes me want to use the Plus even when it is a bit too slow for the task. That's why they put that display on the device, right?
Here's where I think 'Scarlet' could benefit from the lower-res screen.
With the same chipset and internal setup, 'Scarlet' will have FAR fewer pixels to render. Specifically, the Samsung will be responsible for 4.88 times the number of display pixels when compared to 'Scarlet'.
Imagine the performance boost when that overhead gets removed!
Low-Cost Processors and Displays
The win here is performance. Sure, hi-res displays are fantastic and I love them, but when we are talking about devices with processors that are affordable and not exactly what we'd call high-speed, a lower resolution display can go a long way in giving the device the ability to function at a much higher level.
I'm on the hunt for an older monitor with a resolution similar to 'Scarlet' and I will use the Samsung Chromebook Plus connected to it with the lid closed to get an idea of the performance boost. No, you won't see it in synthetic benchmarks, but I guarantee I'll see it in day to day usage.
Until I get that test run, I can only say that, logically, this is a good move for whoever is making 'Scarlet'. For work or other productivity tasks, performance always beats beauty.
The day will come when cheaper silicon can easily push these higher resolution screens, but for now, there is a definite win with the route they are taking with 'Scarlet'.

JENKINS-14187 The trac publisher plugin does not support multi-repo trac instances
- Resolved
I followed through a selection of bugs to get here. Is there a work around for even 1 repository? I take it that I should configure Trac to default URLs without a repository name to be the repository I care about most of all.
In my opinion the repository must be added at the end of the url e.g.:
Current: [TRAC-URL]/changeset/6125e371601ae14ad41acf320b3fa7bc98ed484e
Should: [TRAC-URL]/changeset/6125e371601ae14ad41acf320b3fa7bc98ed484e/MyRepo
If I add "/MyRepo" to the url it works as it should
I agree with Roman80. Always adding the "/MyRepo" to the end of the URL would solve the issue. This would need to follow each repository that is hosted, although it could be omitted for a default repo if it exists.
Always adding the repo name /MyRepo to the end works for a changeset but doesn't work for a diff link or a source file link.
I set the trac url to http://trac/MyRepo/ and used the following mod rewrite rules so far:
RewriteRule ^/MyRepo/changeset/(\d+)(/.+)?$ /changeset/$1/MyRepo$2 [L,R]
RewriteRule ^/MyRepo/browser/(.+)$ /browser/MyRepo/$1 [L,R]
RewriteRule ^/MyRepo/$ / [L,R]

London - Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic says that accusations of arrogance against him are unfair and that his grand proclamations are merely expressions of supreme confidence.
The Swedish striker, who is in line to make his Premier League debut for United at Bournemouth on Sunday, is renowned for talking himself up and being dismissive of his opponents.
But the 34-year-old says that is merely a reflection of the drive that has enabled him to win league titles in four different countries and amass a huge haul of personal honours.
"I don't believe I'm arrogant in the way that people think," he said in an interview with Sky Sports broadcast on Friday.
"I'm confident. I believe in myself. That's not being arrogant. That's something I believe is an individual strength in the human being."
He added: "I'm a normal person. People have the image of me that I'm a bad boy, I'm this and I'm that. People are curious: 'How is this Zlatan?'
"I'm a family guy. I'm taking care of my family, but when I come on the pitch I'm a lion. That's the big difference."
