Lagos airport
For many years, some of the airport runways have been without airfield lighting. Chinedu Eze reports on the safety and economic implications on the domestic carriers and other aircraft operators
In many parts of the world, it is basic that airport runway has accompanying airfield and approach lighting, which guides the pilot to land on the runways and also taxi to the apron in the night.
But in Nigeria, some of the airports which receive many flights a day do not have airfield lighting, thus limiting operations to such airports. The affected airfields include the domestic runways of the Lagos airport, Enugu airport and that of Margaret Ekpo International Airport, Calabar. There are also Yola and Benin airports.
In December 2008, the former Minister of Aviation, Babatunde Omotoba, unveiled the newly rehabilitated domestic runway at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, known as Runway 18L without airfield lighting.
That was the first open assignment carried out by the then new Minister after his appointment. Even at the unveiling, there was a sanguine atmosphere and a hope on the countenance of the top officials of the aviation agencies that within a matter of months the airfield lighting would be installed.
Many industry officials who had spent years in the sector were aghast that the minister who awarded the contract for the Lagos airport runway rehabilitation did not award the airfield lighting installation so that the job would be done simultaneously.
Earlier this year, the installation, management and maintenance of airfield lighting were moved from the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) to the Nigeria Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) and it is hoped that the change in management would bring in positive changes.
Safety Implications
Industry experts looked at the safety implication of not having airfield lighting at the airport runways. In the case of Lagos airport which receives over 300 aircraft daily, with peak hours in the night for international operations, it technically has only one runway because from 6:00 p.m. the domestic runway is closed, so all the aircraft land and take off from the international runway, known as Runway 18R.
So in the unexpected event of an accident on the runway and it is closed for about 24 hours, it means that the nation's busiest airport would be closed for traffic throughout the night when the domestic runway would be out of use.
The consequence is that all international flights would be diverted to neighbouring countries and Abuja, a reality that would cause too much inconvenience to passengers.
Because priority is given to international flights at the Runway 18R, domestic flight coming from anywhere in Nigeria to Lagos must have to wait if an international flight is on the approach, to land first. When the traffic is heavy, a domestic flight could wait for as long as 20 minutes, burning fuel and risking the lives of passengers while hovering to take its turn.
Economic Implication
Nigerian domestic carriers are said to lose over N1.5 billion annually to lack of runway lighting, which also compromises safety standards of the airports.
The Managing Director of Aero Contractors, Akin George, explained to THISDAY in a recent interview that lack of runway lighting in Lagos alone costs the airline N60 million a year and lack of night operations at the other airports in the country also cost the airline $35 million (about N5.454 billion).
George said: "Airport infrastructure needs to be overhauled; lack of runway lights in Lagos alone cost Aero N60 million a year, lack of night operations at the airports is a loss of $35 million and lack of lighting of taxiways means a drastic reduction is safety of passengers. Failure of runway lights in Lagos, Abuja, Enugu and Calabar has cost Aero an additional N40 million in 2012 alone."
Also the Chairman of IRS Airlines, Alhaji Isyaku Rabiu, once commented on the effect of not installing airfield lighting on the domestic runway of Lagos airport.
He said there were many problems of infrastructure at the airports, remarking that in the last three to five years domestic carriers could not land after 7:00 pm at the domestic airport runway 18L in Lagos. "We have to land at the international airport. That, you may think is not much but it is a lot of money that we waste in doing that. It cost money on your wear and tear, on tyres, on your brakes, on your airplanes an on your engines and fuel burnt is excessive."
Alhaji Rabiu lamented that to taxi all the way from international airport to domestic airport, which is just one long distance could take so much fuel.
"Sometimes, you get held up at the threshold because there are so many airplanes coming and it is practically almost being done manually. And it takes time waiting there burning fuel and wasting a lot of time. For the airline and for the passengers, it is a negative thing. And it is one of the things that can actually affect your departures, because if you are going at 9:00 o' clock flight and you don't leave until 9.45 due to problems at the threshold, you will not be able to make it."
Effect on Airline Operation
An aviation security expert and former commander of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, Group Captain John Ojikutu (rtd), also told THISDAY that the taxiways do not have lighting.
"Immediately you pull out of the runway, there is no taxiway light. Over 50 per cent have burnt out. There are critical safety and security issues. This gives me personal worry because of the safety and security issues," Ojikutu said.
A seasoned pilot and a top airline official explained to THISDAY: "In Lagos we have one runway that operates 24 hours. If there is any mishap on the runway, international airlines will divert to Accra, Ghana and Cotonou, Benin Republic. I don't understand why it takes this long for government to install airfield lighting on runway 18L, making sure that the airports are safe before rehabilitating the terminal buildings," the pilot said.
He cited airports like the Yola airport "where you will be told there is no lighting so you need not fly there. So the issue has safety and security implications. It is not very expensive to install and maintain runway lights (about N500 million) and they should be building runways with airfield lights."
The pilot also said that economic implications robs off negatively on the airlines because instead of operating three flights daily to some airports they have to operate two times because by 6:00 pm such airports are closed for flights and practically flights could go on for hours into the night if there is airfield lighting.
"Our aircraft ideally should be operating for 18 hours a day but we are forced to operate some of them for only eight hours thereby underutilising the capacity. So, lack of airfield lighting limits your operation to only from daylight to sunset and if you leased or rented the airplane you have to pay whether you operated it or not.
When contacted, the Special Adviser (Media) to the Minister of Aviation, Joe Obi, said the runway lighting project was in the 2013 budget, which currently is at the National Assembly and if approved, the installation would be done next year.
He also noted that such strident calls never gained such velocity or reached such crescendo that seems to pierce the industry, until recently, adding that the runway lighting and airport infrastructure were neglected over the years before the present administration.
Obi remarked that if the past ministers of aviation were attacked the way the present one is being attacked perhaps these laudable airports rehabilitation the present minister is executing would have been accomplished many years ago; the same with the installation of airfield lighting at the airports.
Unfortunately, he noted, all these were left by past administrations and now the minister of aviation is being attacked as if it was last year that the airfield lighting disappeared from the runway. He assured that with budgetary approvals the airfield lighting would be installed next year as quickly as the airport facilities are being rehabilitated.
The Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah, in an interview with THISDAY explained how the airfield lighting would be installed at the airport runways and powered uninterruptedly. She also explained why the installation of airfield lighting was not done at the Lagos domestic runway till now.
"We met a non-performing contract there. A contract that had been almost 60 per cent mobilised, yet nothing was on the ground (the installation was not done). And because you don't want litigation you cannot just start without ensuring that legally you are on the right track. That is the major reason you have not seen us do anything about that. Frankly, I refused to pay a man who had received 60 per cent of the cost of the contract six years ago and did zero per cent and then wants you to now renegotiate and pay him, not just 100 per cent but a 400 per cent increase on the original sum for the same contract (of airfield light installation). This is totally wrong as far as I am concerned. At least, I won't be party to that."
On installation and powering the runway lights, the minister said: "We have three phases on airfield lighting. We are having back up, on back up, on back up. This simply means that we are going to have the conventional one that is cabled, we are going to have the solar power and in between, we are going to have the inverter. So if one fails you will have the intermediary, and then you have that solar power lighting, then the back up on back up is the generator, should the others fail. Eventually, in the next one year, we are going to have an independent power provider, which will save money used in fuelling the generators. That is what we intend to do."
A good plan, many in the industry say, but the airline operators and other users of the airport do not want further delay in providing this critical infrastructure to improve security, safety at the airports.

So in my lesson the other day we had this kindof bounce line set up, it was like bounce then one stride one stride onestried and then another bounce
X X..... l..... l..... X X. <~ like that and lol it was funny one horse was so slow it got stuck in the middle of the first bounce lol but anyways so my instructor left the bounces as cross rails to whole time and raised the one stride verticals up to about 3'6 by the end of the lesson :) technically 3'7 to be exact but yeah lol. She had me try two different positions going over it, one where I stayed fairly sitting up and then the face in the main, it was really fun. We have also been working on getting my horse to work with his hind end and be rounded and I didn't even have to tell him to be rounded he just did it, it felt like it was easier for him to jump and he looked way more balanced and he even stayed somewhat rounded over the jump instead of sticking his nose all over the place and then at the end when we were cooling off my instructor came and told me it was 3'6 and I was like "really??" haha it sure didn't feel that high and I always thought 3'6 would be scary but it was really fun :) and what made me feel really good was that he didn't keep his head down and he wasnt listening very good with the 2 people that rode him before me and then with me he was so good, I think it's because it's usually me who feeds him his treats and dinner though ;) haha anyways sorry done rambling

The Darkness II Contest
I love this : )
"Mignola", really? Wow! Thanks a lot, pal, that's what I call a compliment!
I love the Mignola vibe in this.
Thanks for the comment. Guess you're right... I'm working on a second submission, and I'll try to focus on the action instead of details.
If I may suggest, I think that you have overdone the details in the first panel, it takes away attention from the main action. Second panel is my favorite!

Harry Potter for Kinect
Harry Potter for Kinect
Developed by Eurocom
Published by Warner Bros. Interactive
Rubber Chickens - HEX: 4 - BAJO: 3
Ahh... Harry Potter, he may have captured our imaginations in books and films but when it comes to games, he really hasn't cast a spell on our hearts.
Yeah, outside of LEGO Harry Potter there hasn't been much to rave about. So the question is, can Harry Potter for Kinect finally pull off some magic?
Thats a Negative.
If Im being honest Im not a big fan of Kinect even at the best of times. But this ranks among some of the worst the Kinect has to offer in my opinion. The actual controls are responsive and work but the game is just really boring.
Yeah, many of the major scenes from all eight films have been turned into their own little mini-games. So youll take potion class with Professor Snape... play a round of Quiddich... battle Voldemort... and much more. Theres certainly lots of variety but the problem is theres very little gameplay to any of them, theyre just not fun.
Yeah, Quidditch for example is just leaning to dodge some obstacles and punching when someone gets close to you, it totally fails to capture the excitement of a match.. And theres really only a few games repeated in various ways, running through a maze or battling a tree are essentially the same game of jumping, ducking and leaning.
Affirmative. Its one thing to make games simple for a wide audience, and simple can be fun, but not in this case. You are awarded up to five stars for completing levels based on how well you play, and this is clearly designed to encourage replaying levels however only Muggles would want to, once is more than enough.
And youd think things would pick-up in the magic battles, but no. All you do is shout out the name of your magic spell and wave your hand like a wand to cast it. Which sounds kinda fun in theory but theres just barely any strategy really. You can usually just spam any spell and win.
Yeah, and the way they say the name of the spell every single time they cast it gets really grating... I know thats how magic is meant to work but it doesn't make it less annoying. I did have some fun with the face scanning feature tho which lets you put your face into the game instead of Harry.
I dont think we should show them that Bajo.
Yeah your face was terrifying, you just scanned your nose and eye so your character had some weird mutant nose on the side of his face and one giant eye.
I dunno, he looks good to me. But other than that theres not much else to the game, theres a hub menu where you can listen to some songs from the Sorting Hat, yay? And then theres Fawkes here, and from what we can tell all you do is this. I just dont get it, you rub him, he sets on fire, and disappears...whats the point of that?
Well theres an achievement for it but other than that it seems kinda pointless. Theres also two player multiplayer and you can do either competitive Quiddich or competitive duelling but after one go at each Id had my fill.
Well thats all there really is to say about it, even the most diehard Potter fans will struggle to find much fun here. Its a 3 from me.
Yeah, this is definitely one to avoid. Im giving it 4.

I've always wondered what TCL thinks about the S chassis. s13, s14, s15, etc. It is huge in the California hipster scene, which is too bad, but it does make a nice chassis.
Thoughts? TCL seems to be impartial.

Scotch. It's time.
All I have to add is that I'm done with jack-of-all-trades cars. I find myself more and more drawn to vehicles with a specific purpose and that excel inthose purposes.
Thats kind of why we ended up with a Prius for the wife. Its boring, slow, sedate, disconnected and embarrassingly efficient...so for a pure commuter for a wife who doesn't like diving its perfect.
Its also why I am car shopping for a 3rd car. For over a year I was posting how I coildn't wait to dump my mkv gti for something else...but everything else seemed like an extension of the car i was getting rid of. Good at lots, great at none. I want something that is purely a toy...so i'm looking at S2000s, miatas, 944s, and the like for the immediate future, with an eye on the FT/BRZ twins in a few years.
I'll apply this same purpose specific logic when looking for a replacement for the wife's old CRV. I'd rather get 18mpg in a 4runner than 22mpg in a cute ute. Its paid off and low mileage though so I'm in no rush.
For me, I'm a VW guy all around. Having owned around 30 or so of them. Mostly aircooled, but when I bought my 2000 Golf GLS (2.slow) I was in heaven. Plenty of room for me, 4 doors when friends tagged along, and the hatch. God bless the man that invented the hatchback. What that Golf lacked in power/performance, it made up for in sheer fun. To me, the car was just fun to drive. I still kick myself in the ass the day 1.8T fever took over and I traded it in on my '05 GLI.
Now, for somewhat on topic of this off-topic discussion about automobiles...
The new Subaru looks and sounds impressive. Might have to test drive one when they launch. Though, I do doubt that the car will be fitting to someone of my stature. I'll have to wait and see.
1995 Golf Sport 2.0 -"But none together can testify to rhythm of a road well bent."
I want this
with this
just because it's awesome.
^^ prob gets similar gas mileage.
The Toyobaru BRZ/FT86 twins are the first new cars in about 10 years that I'm genuinely looking forward to seeing/sitting in/test driving. I haven't been this interested in a new model since the S2000 came out.
Where is Kyron ??? http://www.bringkyronhome.org/
Support our troops, bless the fallen.
I can't wait to own a BRZ, the first car in a long time that actually interests me on an engineering level that I can afford.
If it were wearing a VW badge, at least half of the negativity would disappear instantly - and it's a shame that it's like that around here.

Turbio said it best - it's bizzaro world out there.
Anyone catch the little circle-jerk going on right now about the guy who just bought a Wolfsburg Jetta? I'm not saying anything in the thread, but it's quite funny right now. Apparently the 2.0T Jetta is a sport sedan, and it provides the perfect balance for daily driving and track usage Whatever floats your boat, I guess.
I have given up on TCL. It went from car appreciation, to elitest rambles, to all out hate of anything not an appliance, or super car.
That said, I really like the BRZ/FT-86/FR-S. Looks good, proper platform, nice interior. Surely the aftermarket will make it great too. I've seen hate because it's a 2.0. Also not forced induction. It also lacks the "soul" of a real sports coupe.
I think of it as a manly Miata Coupe with more grunt under it's skirt.
Do want.

However, let me ask you this - what would you take in the situation? Money not a factor. The Jetta, or a 328i?
For the better balanced chassis , I'm taking the 328i. Even it if means sacrificing a few HP down the line if you decided to reflash the Jetta.
Not trashing the guy for buying a Jetta - but his comments for justifying the purchase were pretty funny.

I still love cars. Buying a bike has made what I love about cars more clear to me. I love low, stiff, fast cars. I love them when they wrap around me tight. I love it when I am part of the car I am driving, when I know it well, when I can feel everything the engine and chassis are doing around me. I love to drive. Linking curves is intoxicating. The racing line is an addictive drug that I am not ashamed to chase. Big brakes and sticky tyres are the deciding factors for me.
This is interesting to me, because I discovered that I like sitting up on my bike, jumping curbs, and tearing up the lawn (sorry, work, I was lost on campus. I didn't realize that was grass there. I'll try to remember next time I get stuck inside after dark...exactly where those awesome patches are!!!!). Laying down on the tank does little to nothing for me. I like going slow and and going fast, doing figures and noodling around. I like suspension travel and being silly. Nubby is better than sticky. Brakes are still king.
So, by and large, I have finally separated out what I like and what I don't like, and in the process, discovered that I am more dimesional than I thought I was.
And I still love cars.

..is about as masochistic as bike racing. It hurts so bad but you know it's doing you good. I highly suggest it. I had one yesterday and feel like I spent the day in the gym.
I've been off the bike for two weeks with back issues and it's working a lot of tension out of my back, shoulders, pecs, and legs from last season.
Anyone else getting painfully amazing massages to help with bike induced issues?

Hi All,
I know several of you do bulk shopping and I wanted to know, how do you store bulk meats like chicken. We cook with a lot of chicken and I would like to buy those 4 - 6 lbs bulk packs of chicken breast, but I never cook with that much chicken in 1 night and not sure how to store the rest of the chicken in the pack after I open it. Can I use freezer bags? Or should I get one of those sealer devices? We're looking at getting a extra freezer or small refrigerator/freezer and I would like to start bulk shopping on stuff that we eat regularly so I can maybe cut my grocery bills down.

Best Use of Non-Traditional Percussion (2012)
Echo Beds
Take a contact mike and one or more of the following: water bottle, stacked cymbals, detached hood of a car, a sheet of metal, floor tom, chains, bricks, file cabinet — any item that can make a sharp, clattering sound — and process or amplify the sounds these items make together, and you'll get a bit of the confrontational and eruptive sounds that Echo Beds uses in all of its sets. Echo Beds is to noise or the avant-garde now what Suicide was to the New York underground scene in the 1970s. These are not percussive sounds and textures for the sake of a cheap startle; they work in the context of unconventional songs and compositions. With its distinctive approach to rhythm, Echo Beds is effectively creating a new industrial music to reflect the harsh realities of the current era.

WPIAL quarterfinal predictions
For now, here are predictions for this week's WPIAL quarterfinals. I would say as a group, the Class AAAA quarterfinals are the best of any class. There are most certainly some intriguing matchups.
And before I get to the predictions, I have to share with you a good line from Central Catholic's Terry Totten this week. He answered his cell phone before practice and I asked him simply how he was doing. He answered: "Ahhhhh, just trying to figure out how to keep Render from getting number 800."
I had to laugh.
Anyway, today's Post-Gazette had a quick look at every WPIAL quarterfinal game.
Now, the predictions: Last week's record: 29-3
CLASS AAAA - North Allegheny over Bethel Park; Seneca Valley over Mt. Lebanon; Gateway over Woodland Hills (although don't be surprised if Woodland Hills pulls out a win); Upper St. Clair over Central Catholic.
CLASS AAA - Thomas Jefferson over Franklin Regional; Montour over West Allegheny (there will be touchdowns scored in this game I firmly believe. The last time they met, the score was 5-3); Mars over West Mifflin; Central Valley over Hopewell.
CLASS AA - Aliquippa over Mount Pleasant; Jeannette over Beaver (I changed my pick from Varsity Xtra video earlier in the week); South Fayette over Beaver Falls; Washington over Seton-LaSalle (although I think Seton-LaSalle is a lot better than people think).
CLASS A - Clairton over Brentwood; Monessen over Neshannock; Sto-Rox over Union; Rochester over North Catholic.

If only I had a million dollars to throw down the drain XD. That car is so cool looking. If I could afford it, I'd probably just buy a helicopter. Sports cars are actually toys for rich adults.
What's the point of a cool sports car if you can't fit at least ONE GIRL in it with you???!
Go Speed Racer!
From above it looks like a gamer mouse.
Yes...it's a Mach 5 cartoon ripoff. Hope they are sending the original designer a check.
It's a one-seat car, not a one-passenger car. Get creative!
DUMB idea. Ugly car.
No point in having a fancy rig without a passenger seat...and someone hot enough to qualify for occupying the seat.
So what would be the point if you can't pick up girls?
Where's the electric cord plug-in? It's got to meet CAFE standards, doesn't it?
Its the automotive equivalent of thong underwear: sexy to be seen in but uncomfortable
"...can't fit one girl in with you..."
...or your clubs.
Typical middle aged men accustomed to their bland BMW's and cavernous SUV's... Isn't it obvious? She's thin enough and hot enough... She sits on your lap.
I know this is supposed to be a thoughtful comment, but this is the dumbest thing Ive ever seen
How do you shuck an Egoista
Batman and Ironman's suits are as cool as this, and no one complains they can't fit a girl in there too. That's what this is...a super hero suit.
Nice! I wonder if the cup holder is big enough to hold a large Slurpee.
You can't get a hand-job in a one-passenger car (at least not from someone else).
Egoista? Bah. Lower-class swill. I'm waiting for the Lamborghini Narcissus.
For real, how can I even pick up a prostitute in this car?
OK for carpool lane?
I have nothing against expensive cars.
Can we use it to make a movie?
It kind of looks like the Mach 5 from Speed Racer. I like it! I can't afford it, but I like it.
thats a great adventure im gona buy that whip
chi compera questa misfit a` pazzo.
You would never know. This from the same company the made the Countach. Ashamed.
They've made a trailer hitch on the back to pull a wagon for the passenger.

text: Crocodiles have always traveled their own particular road of excess; playing, recording, dreaming and scheming in various far-flung corners of the globe. For their fifth album, Boys, the boys decamped to Mexico City where producer Martin Thulin captured this latest psych-pop masterpiece. Trashy in some places and beautiful in others, this colorful album sees the band revisiting many of the sonic Crocodilian themes that have earned them worldwide acclaim while also cooking with many new flavors. Take the salsa-punk of tracks like Crybaby Demon or Kool TV; noisy guitars mesh with Latin rhythms to create a new sound that can only be described as "muy chingón!". On songs such as "The Boy Is A Tramp", "Don't Look Up" and "Blue" the band create beautifully lush soundscapes that are sure to seduce the listener. "Foolin' Around" is a bonkers car crash of influences, something the punks can do The Hustle to. Crocodiles' bizarro-pop craftsmanship shines brightly on "Peroxide Hearts", "Transylvania" and "Hard". The charmingly aggressive Do "The Void" will hit you, but they promise it will feel like a kiss. Boys is an album for boys and for girls and for boy-girls and mutants, back-alley poets, thieves, space cadets and alien babes, righteous tricksters, sonic deviants, and everything in between. But most of all, Boys is an album for you.

Runner Runner is the sort of generic crime thriller - stick-figure characters, pointless muddle of plot, people entering and exiting SUVs and Lear jets with a sense of urgency - that feels like it could drag on forever, and drag us down into a purgatory of stupefaction with it.
Justin Timberlake, with his boyish timbre and eyes like lakes, is Richie Furst, a Princeton grad student in trouble with the dean for running an online gambling operation (hey, those tuition costs!). Pretty darn certain that he's been the victim of a swindle, Richie heads for Costa Rica, where Ivan Block (Ben Affleck, broad-shouldering his way through the villainy) runs Midnight Black, a hugely lucrative Internet operation.
Richie confronts Ivan with spreadsheets and algorithms. Ivan is impressed and offers him a job. Gemma Arterton, deploying her best décolletage, is impressed, too, impressing herself on Richie when Ivan, her boss - and lover - isn't looking. OK, maybe he's looking, and maybe Arterton's oh-so-sophisticated Rebecca is in cahoots with him. Or maybe not.
Meanwhile, an FBI guy with dubious jurisdiction - that'd be Anthony Mackie - tries to get Richie to go undercover to expose Block and his $30 billion-a-year gambling scam. Throw in some mind-numbing poker-speak ("runner-runner flush in a hand of Texas Hold 'Em," anyone?) and various goons, thugs, hookers, corrupt Costa Rican government officials, and a pool of hungry crocodiles and you have . . . a mess.

Egypt to continue efforts to lift Gaza blockade
Posted on Aug 10 2014 | IANS
Cairo, Aug 10 : Egypt is continuing efforts to lift the seven-year blockade on the Gaza Strip, the country's foreign ministry said Sunday.
"This comes in the light of the deteriorating situation in the Gaza Strip along with Egypt's role to stop bloodshed of Palestinians," MENA news agency quoted a ministry statement as saying.
Egypt was keen, since the start of the Israeli onslaught in the Gaza Strip, to keep the Rafah crossing open and allow people and humanitarian aid to pass in order to alleviate the suffering of the Gazans, the statement said.
The number of people who passed from the two sides reached more than 7,500.
Since 2007, Israel has maintained a blockade of Gaza.
It severely restricts all border crossings in territory it controls and naval pathways into the Strip.
Before Israel occupied Gaza, it was controlled for some years by Egypt, which borders Gaza on the west.
The present Israeli offensive in Gaza that began July 8 in the restive enclave has killed over 1,900 Palestinians and left over 9,500 wounded, including around 2,800 children.
