Wuthering Heights (Mass Market Paperbound)
"My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be... Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure... but as my own being." Wuthering Heights is the only novel of Emily Bronte, who died a year after its publication, at the age of thirty. A brooding Yorkshire tale of a love that is stronger than death, it is also a fierce vision of metaphysical passion, in which heaven and hell, nature and society, are powerfully juxtaposed. Unique, mystical, with a timeless appeal, it has become a classic of English literature.
About the Author
Emily Bront? was an English novelist and poet, who, along with her sisters Charlotte and Anne, produced some of the most enduring works of the 19th century. Best known for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, Bront? published her works using the pen name Ellis Bell, a practice common for female writers at the time. Called the Sphynx of Literature, Bront? had no desire for fame and wrote only for her own satisfaction. She died of consumption in 1848 at the age of 30. Collectively, the Bront? sisters novels are considered literary standards that continue to influence modern writers.
Praise For…
"It is as if Emily Brontë could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognizable transparencies with such a gust of life that they
transcend reality."
--Virginia Woolf

I run away from most books with "Definitive" in the title, especially when they aren't heavy enough to break toes if I drop them on my foot. However, the author doesn't waste any space or get distracted with long explanations. In the 440 pages, he effectively covers all of SQLite, including its various language bindings and APIs. Although he created the initial Python bindings, Perl gets the most coverage (if you don't count the third of the book that talks about the C API for completely embedding SQLite into your own programs).
The front of the book covers basic database concepts. At times the subject matter gets a bit complicated, but the author has a clear style and easily explains the tough subjects. Without his command of the topic (as you'll find lacking with many database books), the explanations could have spun wildly out of control, taking the author for a ride. There's no question who's in charge here, though.
I've been using SQLite for a couple years and regularly delve into its documentation, and even I learned several things from this book. The handy SQL reference will keep me from waiting for websites to load, and I expect to have this book close at hand when I'm working with SQLite. It's one of the best database books I've encountered in a long time.
If you need a book on SQLite, The Definitive Guide to SQLite is the only one you should even consider.
I bet if you buy 1000 technical books in your life this will be the only one with an index that isn't alphabetical. Do your self a favor and buy the other 999 and skip this one.
Here's a suggestion for the next version:
The answer thankfully, is not very much. As the author goes to great pains to reinforce many times, SQL as a logical Data Manipulation Language is specified as being completely divorced from the underlying implementation. While all SQL DBs have their own annoying extensions, incompatibilities and divergences from the standard, the underlying syntax and form of SQL is mostly constant. You may, in the course of reading this book, come under the impression you're actually reading two separate publications, with their chapters collated together and coarsely interleaved in the same binding. One is broadly about SQL and RDBMS's, the other is actually about SQLite. As it turns out, there isn't much specific to the topic of SQLite that really demands so much coverage, so with the declared intention of being "definitive", the author has written something of a ground up tutorial/reference that aims to introduce both SQL and SQLite to audiences thoroughly unfamiliar with either. Passing over the table of contents in the front of the book I found myself raising an eyebrow as I realized how narrow of a demographic this book aims to cater to; that is, programmers who know nothing of SQL or relational DB theory and yet feel compelled and ready to embed an RDBMS library into their applications. I happened to be one of these people, but I question the usefulness of much of this book to someone already familiar with SQL.Read more ›
If you are using MySQL or Postgres and don't need a distributed DBM, you need to look hard at SQLite. If you are using SQLite, you need this book.
I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to develop database enabled applications or light to medium traffic websites. I would also highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about SQL or database theory in general.
Probably the most important thing I learned from this book is that 80% of us with databasing needs simply don't need to wrestle with a SQL server anymore.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Jimmie Dale Gilmore & Butch Hancock
Even without Joe Ely — who will be along in October, with Jerry Jeff Walker at the Arena Theatre — two-thirds of the Flatlanders means two of the greatest songwriters ever to stride the Great High Plains. An evening at the Mucky Duck with the two Lubbock natives means an especially intimate environment to catch every flinch, phrase and nuance. Hancock's songs are as steely as his voice, whether it's the postcard-perfect snapshot of a small-town night out "West Texas Waltz" or the striking, forlorn love song "If You Were a Bluebird." Gilmore, meanwhile, invests songs like "Dallas" and "Tonight I Think I'm Gonna Go Downtown" with a deep spiritualism that matches his otherworldly tenor; his 1993 LP Spinning Around the Sun ("Another Colorado," Hancock's "Just a Wave, Not the Water") created a whole different class of cosmic cowboy and contains one of the most beautiful covers of Hank Williams's "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" ever recorded. And we didn't even get to "She Never Spoke Spanish to Me," "My Mind's Got a Mind of Its Own," "Treat Me Like a Saturday Night," "I'm Gonna Love You" or "Fools Fall in Love," but hopefully they will.

Application November 23, 1953, Serial No. 393,667
7 Claims. (Cl. 324-127) This invention relates to alternating current measurement and particularly to current measurement through the use of current transformers.
This application is a continuation-in-part of application Serial Number 7 30,326, filed February 24, 1947, now abandoned.
Current transformers are generally made to transform currents of a particular range or ranges of values. For currents up to approximately two hundred amperes a multiple turn primary winding is generally employed and above this value a single turn primary winding is adequate although when a single turn primary is usable different transformers are required to cover the various ranges of current since the calibration curves over different ranges for a single transformer are undesirable except for one range. Thus, a different transformer is generally required for the precise measurement of currents in the i500 ampere range than is employed for similar accuracy in the 500 ampere range. This is because the ratio and phase angle of a transformer varies with the induction and hence with the value of current producing the induction.
With the multiple turn primary windings the design is such that the induction in the core is kept within certain limits for various ranges of primary currents by changing the number of primary turns in inverse ratio to the number of amperes to be measured so that the ampereturus product on the primary has a range of values which is fixed between zero and a definite maximum value irrespective of the value of the current impressed on the chosen number of primary turns. It has heretofore been possible to construct a single current transformer for using a single turn primary, whose accuracy is acceptable in the range below 200 amperes. This is a generally used minimum value for which a single turn primary winding may be designed, and for such transformers a number of primary taps are provided by the use of which currents up to fifty amperes may be measured, the range from fifty to two hundred amperes being covered by four, three, two, and one turns of an inserted or cable primary.
By this invention the range of accuracy of any such transformer extends to values of current indefinitely higher than the value permitted by any one single turn primary winding design. I do this by arranging a primary winding on the core so that no matter how high the current measured may be, connections may be made sothat such current will produce no more than a fixed maximum of induction in the core. This limit is in contradistinction to the limit heretofore imposed, which was that the induction should never be less than a fixed minimum in order to obtain sufiicient energy to drive the metering apparatus. By this invention only a fractional part of the current measured is effective to produce induction in the core. When the fraction is made sufficiently small, the maximum induction may be maintained at a fixed value.
The fractional part of the current measured which is effective to produce induction is a substantially constant fraction irrespective of the value of the current measured by any particular connection of the apparatus. Therefore the measure of the fraction is a measure of the whole and the meter may be sealed in terms of the primary current.
It is accordingly the main object of this invention to extend the effectiveness of any particular current transformer to measure currents over wider ranges of values.
Although particularly intended to extend instrument current transformer effectiveness, the principles of this invention are applicable in other situations where a fraction of the primary current is employed to useful end. Thus in a relay transformer the invention will also be found useful, as will be clear to those skilled in the art.
Other'advantages of the invention will become ap parent from a consideration of the following specification wherein reference is made to the accompanying drawing for an illustration of one embodiment of the invention, and in which:
Fig. 1 is a schematic and fragmentary view partially in section;
Fig. 2 is a schematic view of another embodiment;
' Pig. 3 is a diagram of a further modification of the invention;
Fig. 4 is a view of a transformer similar to that of Fig. 1 but with an improvement in the terminal structure specifically illustrated in detail;
Fig. 5 is an illustration of an improved embodiment of the particular form illustrated in Fig. 3; and
Fig. 6 illustrates the application of the invention in extended form as a part of a bus bar structure.
In Fig. l the transformer comprises a ring core 10 about which there is threaded a primary winding 12 and a secondary winding 14. The secondary winding 14 is a conventional one, connected to a suitable ammeter 16. The primary winding shown is a single copper bar formed in a closed figure of eight as shown, and is provided with a terminal P at one end and one or more terminals M, M, etc., at the other end. Two current paths B and C are thereby provided between M and P. Current a entering at M divides and the two parts b and 0 pass through the paths B and C and out at terminal P. It will be observed that the currents b and 0 pass through the hole in the core 10 in opposite directions. The induction in 1 the ring core 10 is therefore due to only the difference between the values of the currents b and 0. By suitably roportioning the impedances of the two paths B and C the difference between the currents b and c is made any desired positive, zero, or negative value less than the larger, and any corresponding desired fractional part of the total current a. This may be done by choosing the point of entry of the current at M, or M, etc. Thus, as shown in Fig. l, the impedance between M and P along path B is slightly less than along path C; for example, let it be considered that the winding 12 is of a single conductor of uniform section and specific linear resistance. So, if the impedances of paths B and C from M to P are in the ratio 99/101 the effective value of the current of 1000 amperes, a, in circuit A is given by the expression:
101 plus 99 which equal ten amperes to produce induction in core 10. The magneto-motive force is likewise ten ampere turns. he ammeter 16 is preferably scaled to show ten amperes when 1000 amperes are flowing in the primary, and the readings of the scale may be multiplied by 100 to obtain the value of current a If the current a to be measured be of the order of five hundred amperes, another terminal, as M is arranged so that the ratio of impedance between M and P along 3 the respective paths B and C is 98/102. Then when the current is 500 amperes, the effective induction current is:
10298 102 plus 98 which equals ten amperes, and the meter 16 indicates ten amperes as before, the multiplier now being fifty instead of 100.
In Fig. 2 the shape of the primary winding 12 is somewhat altered so that the terminals Mo, M3, M3, M 4, and M4 are symmetrically related to the core. The ammeter 16 is chosen to read in portions of 1, as in percent, and its reading is directly multipled against a figure opposite the terminal connected to current path A. Thus, when M3 and P areconnected to circuit A, the reading of the 'ammeter is the percentage of 1000 amperes.
In Fig. 2 the terminal M when connected, results in zero induction in core because the impedances of paths B and C are then equal, Mo being so located in construction of the transformer. Should the impedances become unequal, either accidentally or by being intentionally made so, the fact is indicated by a deflection of meter 16. The amount of this deflection indicates the degree of unbalance in the impedance due to such accident or intentional alteration. A measure of the unbalance is obtained by placing a current meter 18 in the circuit A, I
fixing the value of the current a, and marking the scale in ammeter 16 in terms of the value of the condition producing the unbalance of resistance. Thus, path B may be placed in heat conducting relation to a heat source of high or low temperture so as to vary the resistance of path B in accord with such temperature, while path C may be placed in heat conducting relation to a heat source of low or high temperature, and meter 16 will then indicate the difference of temperature between the two sources of heat.
It will be readily appreciated that the polarity of the secondary winding 14 changes with respect to the polarity of the primary winding 12 as the current difference bc changes from plus to minus due to the changes in resistance of paths B and C. Therefore by connecting an alternating current wattmeter W so that the potential coil r receives energy from circuit A directly while the current coil s receives energy from the secondary winding 14", the direction of deflection of the indicator in the wattmeter indicates the path C or B having the predominant or larger value of current flowing.
In Fig. 2 the terminals M3 and M3, if so chosen, may
afford equal values of current at ammeter 16', but the I polarity of the current flowing in the secondary may be reversed with respect to the primary current by connecting circuit A to one or the other of M3 and M3.
It will be observed that the terminals M, M, P, etc., are offset from the main conductors 12 or 12. The effect is to prevent the connection to one of the terminals from having any substantial influence on the division of current in paths B and C, the current being uniformly distributed in the terminal before it enters the paths B and C.
The exact positioning of any particular terminal of the several terminals M0, M, M3, etc. determines the exact ratio of resistances of the paths, such as of paths B and C, and therefore the exact transformer ratio. Achieving any particular value of the ratio of resistances is facilitated by employing for each such terminal a terminal structure such as that illustrated in Fig. 4. In this figure one terminal P corresponds to terminal P in Fig. 1, and a second terminal To is shown to correspond to the terminal Mo of Fig. 2; that is, the intention is that paths B and C carry equal, or ascertainably nearly equal, currents and that therefore the resistances ratio of the paths shall be fixable at unity exactly, or at some exact value very near to unity. The structure of terminal To may be employed in place of any one or more of the 4 other terminals, as M4, M4 in Fig. 2, or M and M in Fig. 1.
The terminal T0 comprises two terminal lug parts 30 and 32 which are preferably rigidly integral with the metal of winding BC. The terminal lug parts 30 and 32 in Fig. 4 are placed roughly symmetrically with re spect to a section S from which section the resistances of paths B and C to'P are equal. When the same terminal structure is used for terminal M in Fig. 1, for example, the corresponding lug parts are placed roughly symmetrically with respect to a section in winding BC from which section the resistances in paths B and C to P are in the desired resistances ratio.
The terminal lug parts are preferably otherwise identical and each have parallel plane surfaces 34 and 36 between which surfaces each lug part is of substantial thickness and is rigid with the main body of the winding BC so as to not be bent out of position in ordinary use. The terminal lug parts 30 and 32 are perforated and threaded on a common axis preferably perpendicular to their surfacesfor the reception therethrough of a ratio adjustment terminal post 38 which comprises an externally threaded tubular portion of two parts 40 and 42 of like lengths respectively positioned in the lug parts 30 and 32 and extending between the lug parts and projecting substantial distances away from surfaces 36 so that throughout the range of adjustment the parts 40 and 42 engage all of the threads in the terminal lug parts 36 and 32 to effect a uniform area of contact equal in both lug parts. The tubular parts 40 and 42 have integrally joined thereto by a hub part 44 an axial conductor part 46 carrying a contact terminal 48 which is formed to constitute a slip ring and associated with which there is a current applying brush 50. A second axial part 52 of the terminal post 38 is provided as an adjustment drive shaft actuable in rotation by hand with a wheel handle part 54 of the post. It will be noted that, as shown, the hub part 44 joins conductor 46 to the threaded parts 40 and 42 about midway between the lug parts 30 and 32 and that the areas of engagement of the threads of parts 40 and 42 in lug parts 30 and 32 are substantially equal and the resistances of the lug parts between the threads and the main body of winding BC are nearly equal and preferably equal. Therefore, by adjusting theposition of the hub part 44 along the axis of threading rightward or leftward, the ratio of the resistances to current flow along paths B and C from contact terminal 48 and conductor 46 to terminal P may be adjusted to unity or to any of a range of desired values close to unity in the case supposed for Fig. 4, thus achieving ready precision adjustment. It will be observed that, with the conductor part 46 and the parts 40 and 42 ac curately machined to concentricity, the current distribution from 46 through 44 and 40 and 42 is as nearly as possible uniform and independent of rotary positions, and of the contact distribution on ring 48. The length of conductor 46 insures a uniform distribution of current over its cross section before the current reaches hub 44.
Prior to final adjustment of the ratio, the threaded parts are firmly locked together by lock nuts 56 hearing on the faces36 of the lug parts through an electrical insulator washer 58. Only one lock nut is illustrated;
one to be placed against face 36 of lug part 32 has been omitted from the drawing.
' It is believed to now be readily apparent that in order to adjust the effective ratio of the transformer, known current is applied at brush and terminal P, with a current meter in the circuit of secondary winding 14, while handle 54 is turned until the desired ratio of input to output current is established, after which the threaded parts are locked together and the ratio again checked; possibly release of the threads andreadjustment may be indicated to be necessary, and some adjustment is available by varying the tightness of the locking nuts.
I in making ratio ad ustments near the unity resistance ratio for paths B and C it is preferable to utilize a wattmeter arrangement as in Fig. 2 in order to fix the relative polarities of the output terminals with respect to the input terminals as desired. I Otherwise the relative polarities of an input and an output terminal may easily be made other than may be desired. I
By the arrangement of Fig. 3 the invention is adapted for use with the so-called split-core transformer. The
transformer core 20 and secondary winding 22 with instrument 24 are of known conventional design. The core provides hinged sections 20a and 20b split at 20c and hinged at 26d so that conductors may be slipped through the gap 200 when 20a and 20b are separated.
The primary winding is comprised of a plurality of conductors N1, N2 Nn where It may be any value, for example 200 conductors. These conductors may be flexible. The resistances of conductors N1, Nn may be all exactly equal but need not be. Preferably they are all bonded to the terminals U and V of the primary winding by welding or soldering so that the joints have in variable resistance. The value of the conductance or admittance between U and Vfor any conductor N then has a fixed value.
By choosing a group of N1, N2, Nx, conductors for threading through core 20 in one direction, and the balance of conductors for threading therethrough in the other direction, as shown, a certain percentage of the current a is effective to produce induction in core 20. This percentage is determined in calibrating the primary in advance for each combination of the conductors in the two groups. Thus this primary winding is applicable for employment with any split core type transformer irrespective of the induction at which it is designed to operate most accurately, because a value of induction is provided by the primary winding which conforms to that of the core.
In Fig. 5 an improved form of Fig. 3 arrangement is illustrated to comprise terminal disc plates U and V having axially integral therewith rod terminals 60. The several conductors N1, N2, etc., are preferably of equal length and resistances and are permanently electroconductively attached to the plates respectively at points radially equidistant from the terminal rods 60. The conductors N1 and N2 etc. are, moreover, of the extra flexiblevarietyso that they. can easily be formed by hand into loops as shown. Th seveml conductors are suitably covered with insulation so that current will i not interchange between them or bridge the loops. The
arrangement as described makes the resistances of all paths including separate conductors N equal between the ends of terminals 60 and 62.
In Fig. 5 the dash circle 64 represents the magnetic axis of the core of a split-core instrument transformer and it will be observed that all seven conductors pass through the core hole once only. However, assuming that the instantaneous current flow is from 62 to 60, the current flow is upward through the hole of the transformer in conductors N2 N6 inclusive but the current fiow is downward through the hole in conductors N1 and N7. Thus the efiective number of conductors is five minus two equals three.
It will be evident that the flexible conductors N may be temporarily tied in a position with certain ones in the loop form for the reception of the transformer core along path 64. It should be noted that the starting and ending f a loop will be on the outside of the ring core of the transformer, thus bringing the diametrically opposite part of the loop into a group with the unreversed conductors for encirclement by the core. By making the several conductors N of adequate length, a second combination of conductors including, say three looped conductors in Fig. 5, may be tied up at another longitudinal region between the terminals U and V for the reception of the core in their encirclement. Thus, but one conductor N would be efifective and a larger current may be measured using the same ring core transformer.
In Fig. 6 the invention is extended to utilization for the primary purpose of a bus bar and the secondary purpose of a means by which current may be measured in that bus bar, using but one split ring core measuring transformer for widely variant values of current traversing the section of bus bar. The material of the bus bar is of sufficient section transverse the bar length to retain adequately its shape in section. The bar is, of course of an electroconductive material. As shown a flat bar of uniform cross section from end to end is formed to provide terminal attachment parts 70 and 72 joined by parts 74 and 76 of substantial length to winding parts sets 78 and 80 and 82 and 84.
The winding parts 78 and 80 correspond respectively to the paths B and C of Fig. 1 and the central parts 78a and 89a are, in use, encircled by the split core of a measuring instrument, two large openings being formed through the winding as shown for this purpose. The parts 82 and 84 are similar to the parts 78 and 80 and the parts 82a and 84a are, in current measurements, encircled by the split core of the measuring instrument transformer. The difference in construction and effect of the two series related sets of windings is that due to the ratios of resistances in the paths of the sets. The ratio is, in each case, determined by the lateral position of a longitudinal slot cut through the bar between the parts of which the winding parts are subsequently reshaped as shown. Thus, prior to bending the bar parts 32 and 84, the bar is, while fiat slotted from 86 to 88, the slot being sufiiciently wide to insulate the parts between these points. The ratios of resistances for the different windings depend upon the relative distances from the center line of the bar to the slot center line, the slot being preferably of the same minimum width. The joining part 90 is made of sufficient length that the current is uniformly distributed before it enters one winding after leaving the other.
By the arrangements of Fig. 6 two widely variant values of current flowing in the bus at difierent times can be measured with one split core instrument having but one instrument circuit winding.
The transformer cores, in order to provide for a complete range of current measurement, are provided with multiple range primary winding 26 having several taps in the conventional manner. The rated value of current in each range of the primary winding produces the same value of induction in the core as a single turn primary winding produces at its rated current, and this is the value of the induction at which the paths B and C cause the core to operate when connected to operate for their rated values of currents. Accordingly, the core is operated at the same range of flux densities with the multiple turn self-contained primary winding, the single turn inserted or bar type winding, and the variable percentage efifective turn winding here introduced.

A Harvard Law School professor reopens a murder investigation on behalf of a death row inmate who claims he was forced by a sinister lawman to confess to a crime he didn't commit. On the surface, it seems to be a straightforward case of the prisoner's guilt or innocence. But nothing really lies on the surface of this mystery, climaxing in the Florida swamplands.

Horrible traffic in rush hour
Avoid if possible travelling in rush hours outside Lagos Island, i.e. morning and afternoons in VI (Vicoria Island) is a mare-ritt of "go-slow", be prepard to be stucked in the taxi for i hour on VI. Also be warned that if you take a taxi to a fancy mall like The Palms Mall in Lekki, which kind of out of town, it might be impossible to find a taxi back...
But if you´re goíng to the mainland, you have have option of BRT (Bus Rapid Transit System) with separate bus lanes bypassing the crows.. You can only board the BRT on special busstops. VI have BRT but no separate buslines.
Domestic Airport
Do observe that the Domestic Airport at Murtala Mohamad Airport firstly is separated from the International one and there are no shuttle buses, just taxis that would rip you off.
Secodly do observe that there are two part of Dometic, the new modern building and the old wing. Make sure from which your airline is departing! You will immediately be attached by touts ( though it´s illegal, grabbing your suitcase and walking away with it to the right counter, and then they wont you let proceed on your own. I costed me about 10 us dollars. It´s very annoying and frustrating, they want let go get time to realize things by yourself and they utilize your bebilderness in this bewildering airport.
Appearently some contructrion is going on at the old wing by 2012 meaning that 1 hour before departure is not enough.
From Lagos to Cotonou by shared taxi
Go first to Mile 2 motor park, by taxi from Lagos island 1500 to 2000 Naira (depending on trafic), from there are shared taxis, leaving when full for 3000 Naira, very bad road until the border, lots of problems at that border, 4 to 5 hours.

Murtala Muhammud Airport
We just flew to Cape Town from Portland, Oregon via Houston, Lagos, J'burg and then Cape Town. As we were using United FF miles we were on Continental to Lagos and then switched to South African Air. I am writing this in the hopes someone will find it helpful. There was NOTHING on any forum about this airport.
We were carrying medical supplies that were quite heavy. As we were using business class we had the ability to check 3 bags each. We checked 3 bags in total but they were oversize and heavy. We each had 2 carry on as all valuable electronics, medications, cameras must travel with you. Even so, being unable to lock the luggage, I was concerned as the equipment was valuable and we had an 8 hour layover in Lagos.
When we arrived we were directed into a Que to immigration/passport control. Because we were considered "in transit" our passports were retained by the officer and we were told to collect our luggage and then return to him. The luggage carousels were down about 6 stairs from the passport desks and only 1 of 3 were operating. I waited at the top with our 4 carry on while my husband went to collect the luggage. It total it took 2 hours to pick up all 3 pieces. He then located an officer who held our passports and instructed us to follow him. We trailed after him as he took us out of the building, around the corner to another door and to the base of 2 sets of stairs (about 20 each level) which we were expected to climb with our luggage. There is no elevator.
The officer gives no assistance and we managed with the help of a Frenchman to get all of our luggage together in a pile upstairs. Luckily there were 2 of us so we had eyes on our boxes and luggage most of the time. Upstairs we were inundated with "porters" who wanted to help however we were advised on the plane NOT to let them get their hands on our things. There is no way to tell a legitimate porter from a thief. I spotted a man with a red vest that said "Exon - Mobile" on it. Several men from the plane said they were being escorted through the airport by legitimate porters provided by the oil company so I quickly asked the man if that was what he did and if so, could he help us. He managed to grab a trolley and loaded our luggage on it ( keeping a very excited "porter" at bay [probably it was his trolly] and took us to a small office labeled immigration that was located away from the departure gates and next to the security stations. Our immigration escort had disappeared.
We had to leave our luggage outside and were told to take a seat. This office was no more than 8'X8' and had 4 chairs. Inside a very loud and heated argument was taking place between 5 male immigration officers, a woman who was some kind of gate person over the medical condition of a quiet elderly Sikh who was in the company of his middle aged son. Apparently the older gentleman was singled out because the lady felt he was ill. Apparently he was shivering and shaking and they were not going to let him enter Nigeria if he was sick. This scene took 35 minutes and it escalated to shouting on all sides and lots of hand gestures and foot stomping. Eventually the lady threw up her hands and left. We then were introduced to a woman who retained our passports and took us (without our luggage) through to a waiting area where she advised us she would be back in 45 minutes to collect us and escort us to the South African Airline desk which would not open until 5:30 PM. Even though we had an 8 hour wait, we could not enter the business class lounge without a SAA boarding pass and we could NOT get that in Houston. It had to be issued by SAA air and they did not staff the desk until 5:30 PM.
We again passed out of security, collected our luggage and proceeded to the SAA desk. This immigration lady pushed through all the people and spoke first to the passport checking people, then to the customs people who for a few minutes appeared to want to open and inspect my bags and finally to the departure desk. Our luggage was finally checked in and we were issued our boarding passes. By this time it was after 6:00 PM (we had arrived at 1:30 PM). She then returned us to the very same security check point we had already passed through and we were again asked to go through security prior to going to the SAA lounge. Eventually that happened and to our utter amazement she did not seen to expect a tip for her trouble. She said good bye and left.
Our flight left at 10:00 PM and we needed every bit of that 4.5 hours to navigate that airport and it's various processes. Surprising to me nothing was taken from our bags and eventually as we unpacked we are missing nothing. That says a lot as we had another collect/recheck luggage in J'burg. Having our passports out of our possession for so many hours made us both uncomfortable. In anticipation of that possibility we each carried a paper copy of our passport, the address of the US embassy and a copy of our SAA retired persons visa. I hope this is helpful.

TRansportation in Lagos
Daer VT,
For the exchange rate, do go to EKO HOTEL @ VIctotia Island. I was last week , 1 dollar for 152 naira while 1euro for 212.. naira.
Teenah, Lagos.
There is al ot traffic in Lagos Isalnd daily and one the fattest way to be on time Motcycle known as OKODA.
It depends on where u are going....Aways bargain when a price is given...
You also cabs: RED, Yellow, Metro Taxi...with AC.
For a day, it can between 10-15000 naira ( 100 -150 dollars) but
u have to bargain with the driver...
If u can have the driver for the whole day.. it is better to tell him to go get another cab as soon as u have finished.
One can also take ferry to avoid traffic: from VI to IKOYI( TARZAN) . On can also have his car across via boat.( 1000-3000 naira 10615dollars)

Public Tranport
I have to say that we were discouraged from using public transport during a business trip to Lagos. However from observation it seems as if there are plenty of mini buses and coaches around to use. there are also many taxis and three wheeled vehicles too.
These are yellow in colour and seem very busy.
In addition there are huge numbers of motor cycles which function as taxis too -there are many of them and they are located near buses and heavy centres of traffic.

I will quote this from what my good friend, a local Lagosian said about Okadas:
'They're the mainstay of transportation in Nigeria...& esp Lagos. Lagos can't do without them.
There are just a few 'don't(s)'.....and even they are flexible.
> Don't get on any with the handlebars twisted. They do that sometimes
> so they can manoeuver btw vehicles.
> Don't get on any with a 'toughie' as the rider. He'll be more
> difficult to control.
> Don't get on any blaring loud music/ or with the rider in ear phones.
> The rider isn't fully attentive.
> Don't allow the rider use his mobile phone while in motion.
> Don't forget to tell him to slow down if u're uncomfortable.
> And usually, before u get on it....tell the guy u're not in a rush and
> u don't want him to do any crazy stunts or u'll ask him to stop so u
> can get off!!
Thanks to Ayo for such insightful and useful advice!

Over time you will become comfortable regarding how Lagos moves and how to get around without being cheated. It helps to make friend with a Lagosian who could give you some idea of how much things cost in general.
For the first week I was in Lagos, I got around almost exclusively by hotel taxi. Hear me when I say this--I was being ripped off the whole time! You pay for the semblance of protection and safety in Lagos. Many of the taxis inside the hotel are no safer than those outside of it and far more expensive. At most, use a hotel taxi and have them drop you off. Make sure you see a cab stand or ask about that before the driver takes off. Use the local taxis to get back to your hotel. you will save at least 50% of what you would have paid.
You need to be in Lagos to guage your comfort level with the above tip. It doesn't just apply to black travelers such as myself, as one of my white colleagues operates in the same manner and does quite well, while saving a bundle.
As a rule, take the travel warnings you see here and even those posted by the State Department with a grain of salt. Be observant and move within your comfort zone.

Nigerian Embassy
A trip here for us begins with a visit to the Nigerian embassy in London. Personal applications, with the invitation letter, have to be received in the mornings and collected a couple ofdays later in the afternoons.
Telephone applications or via e-mail are not permitted so it involves two trips to London and the fee of £40 - so its quite expensive even before purchasing a plane ticlket!
- Business Travel
On the Road
First of all if you are travelling to Nigeria that means you already know someone living there. You get around by car with a driver driving you. Forget about the bus because I don't even know the system they go by and it is very crowded and people do hang off the bus. Next best thing would be travel by motorcycle and the last time I went back that was popular for riding around short distances.

You may find a lot of motocycle taxis around Lagos. They are called Okada in local terms. These Okada can bring you any place you want in the Island or outside the island. Prices range from 50 Naira to 100 Naira depending on the distance.
However, be careful with the way they drive the bikes. Just tell the driver you want to go slower if you are not comfortable.
Okada is the best mode of moving around the Island if you are in a hurry. Traffic in the city can be real bad at times. The draw back is safety.

Okada versus Molue
Get around Lagos can be very tedious especially since there is usually heavy traffic on the roads which can last for hours. However, the introduction of Motobike, popularly known as "Okada" has tremendously helped passengers as they can always manouvre their way out of every tight corner. But one got to be very careful with these Okada people. They can be very reckless and surely people die daily as a result of recklessness. The sad aspect of it is that the Okada riders seldomly die in such accidents: it is usually the passengers that do get killed. So be careful if you must go by Okada.

I agree with formanjay's post. There is no elevator. Airport officers/airline workers, whatever their titles are, do NOT assist you to carry or lift anything and some are chatting with other workers while travelers are asking them how to proceed inside the airport because some of the signs/directions are not accurate. When I was departing Lagos with two young children and checking in our six luggages, it required airport officers to inspect the contents in luggages before travelers can check them in at the airline counter, and these officers were rushing people but would not so much as help lift the luggages onto the desk in front of them. All three officers just stood there and ordered us to quickly lift all luggages onto the desk, open each one for all three of them to rummage and search inside, and quickly pack all the luggages up and move it to the check in counter. What is lacking is part of basic customer service skills. These are basic expectations that should be a given for smooth operation, instead of ordering travelers about in a confusing, unorganized manner. Even if there are no scanners for the luggages to pass through as in other airports, this could have been done manually in a more efficient manner. There is a need for better training in this area. I received better customer service and professionalism from a rep at one bank in Lekki than I had at the Murtala Muhammad International Airport. Then after checking in our luggages and going through the next check point, the immigration officers badgered me that my passport had not been stamped upon our arrival in Nigeria and they started interrogating me and holding up the lines. Regardless if someone is traveling there for the first time and just following their directions upon arrival or he already knows what to expect, that was the customs officers' job to have stamped all our passports when they checked our passports and questioned how long we would be staying, etc. Then the next set of officers who checked our carry-on luggages, before we finally entered our departure plane, had the audacity to solicit money from us. This is supposed to be an airport. This is not supposed to be like some motor park in Ojota or Maza Maza where its a frenzy of bus conductors and hustle and bustle confusion. Granted, even the conductors are ready to assist travelers! I mean just driving through the airport traffic is enough stress for travelers and going through the check-in process inside the airport should not be. For a well-known place such as Nigeria and Lagos and with all the affluent and intelligent Nigerian people, this should not be how things operate in this country - at least not at the airport which is the first presentation of your country to foreigners for goodness sake!

I loved the extra touches they made to celebrate the birth of our grandson, adding blue flowers for example. A small criticism would be the size of the Teddy, I ordered the large one and it was great is was blue but did think it might have been slightly larger. Other than that I will definitely use this florist again
