We examine the rise of coaching within management education to support student learning. We question the assumption that faculty-student coaching (FSC) is beneficial and propose that there may be some limitations in the use of FSC that have yet to be adequately acknowledged and discussed in the literature. In particular, we propose that there is currently insufficient evidence to conclude that coaching can produce knowledge acquisition and therefore ask why we persist in the use of FSC when we have limited evidence of its efficacy in delivering a core education outcome. We suggest that the theory of academic capitalism provides a useful, critical lens through which to view the growing trend in FSC, identifying that FSC may be utilized as a method of increasing student satisfaction, perceptions of value for money and as a useful marketing tool for business schools competing for students. However, academic capitalism may also explain the use of coaching via its ability to enhance the skills and attitudes of students, providing outcomes that are valued by students, employers and governments. We conclude our essay by providing recommendations to mitigate these proposed dangers and consequently maximise the effectiveness of coaching as a development tool in management education.

|This place is not really a pub and shouldn't really be on bite.
I understand that it is a decent high class place it's just that i am a working class bloke that like a pint whilst wearing walking boots....

|very over rated,yes a nice setting and the staff are friendly,but it comes at a price and you leave as hungry as you came.Not for me

|Very smart restaurant with comfortable bar and lounge areas. Warm and friendly welcome, outstanding food and first class service.
LittleC - 22 Jan 2009 15:44
|Lanes is my first 9/10 rating. This is my 226th review on BITE and so far I have never rated any pub, bar or restaurant higher than 7.
This is our favourite bar and restaurant and my wife and I come here about once every six weeks or so. We always eat out at least twice a week and always compare wherever we are to Lanes - and Lanes always comes out as superior! The ambience is superb - contemporary style with structural glass walls melded within an Edwardian Rectory and the welcome is always warm and friendly. The bar only has one ale but, much to my wife's delight, sells champagne by the glass (Ł6 a time). The food, cooked to order, is superb and nothing is too much trouble for the chefs or waiting staff. The only downside is that the menu could be a shade more extensive and the range of extras a little more varied and exciting.
This is the only place locally that you are able to dress for dinner and not feel out of place. Unfortunately, in this day and age, dressing for dinner for most people seems to imply denim jeans - we even saw one diner wear a stetson throughout his meal without the excuse of being American - this place really should have a dress code!
As far as value goes, I consider it excellent value for money - typically our evening comprises a pint of ale, 2 glasses of champagne, a shared bottle of wine, two three-course meals and coffees for about Ł80.
Lanes would have scored 10/10 but for only having one ale and a menu that could be a shade more extensive.

Gov. Tim Walz aims to break through gridlock at State of the State by telling Minnesotans' stories
April 4, 2019
The health care safety net is failing Minnesotans and school districts are facing teacher layoffs, Gov. Tim Walz said Wednesday night, using his first State of the State address to urge lawmakers to break through partisan gridlock and improve the lives of people around the state.
Walz called on stories of eight Minnesotans, including a doctor, teacher and farmer, to underscore his key policy and spending plans. The Democratic governor is advocating for a significant increase in the state's per-pupil school funding formula, and pushing a number of tax proposals the Senate Republican majority has staunchly opposed. One continues a tax on health care providers, another would increase the gas tax by 20 cents to improve roads and bridges.

This is a dating site strickly for heterosexuals men seeking women. The first thing I noticed in viewing the two sites is that OurTime is more closely aligned with Match. The eHarmony system is actually working because about people get married a day who met at eHarmony. This is your chance to bypass the whole filtering process if you are just interested in finding those who are compatible with you. Though Tinder isn't a strictly lesbian app, dating a person with that's still where most of the queer women are.
You can search for potential matches by country of origin to locate a date in your area. Even members without active profiles can browse other profiles to get a feel for the site. Hence, catfishing and Grindr have been coined together a lot. But in joining groups, you are opened up to more members. At some point, largest european dating site even iHookups and AdultFriendFinder can start to feel bland.
This curated matching process lets you pick from profiles that are meant to be perfect for you. The good news is that men with a particular interest in a profile can extend that window for another day. Read our full review of eharmony here. Plus, with the detailed profile, you get a great illustration of who you are looking at and then can decide whether or not to take the leap and send them a message.
Free Online Dating and Free Personals

You can find lots of American singles on this website. But for some dating apps and sites, the free version may actually be all you need. While having no search or browse feature creates a more personalized match experience, some users may not like missing out on the freedom to peruse people on their own. Because it is free, you will find that you will need to send out tons of messages even to just get one response. Scruff is not unlike most dating sites, but it does bring a few unique features to its users.
Another recent feature is Tinder Picks. These are members that meet the criteria you specifed as being what you're looking for, and for whom you also meet their criteria.

Elite Singles seems to be a site where people go who are serious about finding their future spouse. You're pretty much getting a notification for every time a hottie is within walking distance, and who would say no to that? You can select multiple tribes for yourself and can filter it so you can only see online users only.
ChristianCafe has a prayer message board where you can post prayers for all members to read. Fake profiles are always a huge issue with dating sites, so I like how they have this option for people who want to let others know that what you see is more likely what you are going to get. If not, no one will see your profile. They'll even show you your own results in comparison to those of potential matches to see how you stack up.
There are better deals for the longer memberships. You can also get a membership where you can see if they read it. It will take into account the people you like early on and send messages to and then show you matches that align with your standards. There aren't nearly as many ways to get involved with other horny members, and that might just be because the user base simply isn't as big.
Whether you love it or think it's trash, it's going to be one of the best for the foreseeable future, and those are just facts. AdultFriendFinder is our pick for the best hookup site, and that's because it's literally impossible to walk away unsatisfied. Best dating sites for introverts. Incase you are a black American then this is the website to join. Sugardaddie Sugardaddie is another great American online dating site having millions of Americans.
This site has lots of great features such as audio and video chat using webcam. Once there's a connection, the app sends you to a private chat room with icebreaker questions to get things started. As we've changed, dating so has the online dating landscape.
If it didn't work to some extent, Tinder's user base would have gone downhill a long time ago. However, sending messages is pretty simple and straightforward. Like mentioned above, the fact there is no screening process means there are a lot of catfishers on the site. Here you get to look at profile pictures of other members, and if you both click yes that you want to meet each other, it will show up in your matches.

On the plus side, this minimalistic setup makes it easier to interact with more people on a daily basis. It will take a couple minutes to fill out your profile, as it does request more than just basic information.
Also, be careful of wanting to swipe right for everybody you see. Bumble has a few unique site features to show off, once you start looking. It's a two-way match, and a great way to quickly find the members that you would most likely be compatible with! That is, until Happn came along.

Are you one of the thousands looking to find a way to supplement your monthly income? If so, then Affiliate Bootcamp is the right place to begin your online journey to earn more money from the comfort of home.
So what is Affiliate Bootcamp?
Let me begin by explaining what it is NOT. It is NOT a scam, a multi-level marketing rip-off, or a get-rich-quick scheme. If you aren't willing to put in some work, you will fail at this just as sure as the sun rises!
And when I say work, I mean WORK HARD! (That is if you consider sitting in front of your computer and learning how to earn more money hard work.) There are lessons to read, videos to watch, assignments to do, and checklists to follow.
If you are willing to do those things, then keep reading and I will introduce you to the best way I have found to earn extra monthly income.
I will walk you through the following items;
- What Is Affiliate Bootcamp?
- What Will You Learn From Affiliate Bootcamp?
- How Much Does It Cost For The Courses?
- How Much Will You Earn?
- Is This Worth It?
- How To Get Started
What Is Affiliate Bootcamp?
Simply put, it is an online course that teaches you, step by step, how to establish a profitable website which in turns leads to earning extra monthly income.
In detail, Affiliate Bootcamp is an online course taught by industry professionals with 14 years of proven success helping others to earn money online. You will learn about the process of making money online using affiliate marketing. Affiliate marketing is simply earning commission promoting other companies products and services.
Affiliate Bootcamp is specifically designed to promote Wealthy Affiliate, though you can can promote other companies as well. A more accurate title may be Wealthy Affiliate Bootcamp.
My website, Earn More Monthly, is a product of my participation in Affiliate Bootcamp. My website is still in development and in some aspects always will be as I work to provide additional content and updated information. Your website will be the same.
There is also a second course of study titled Online Entrepreneur Certification designed to help you create a website with a specific online niche
What Will You Learn From Affiliate Bootcamp?

As the equity bull market continues, there are numerous reasons to think a correction is overdue. Yet the equity markets power on and on. On Monday, U.S. indexes once again had record closes, boosted by the hope that the U.S. tax bill with its slashing of corporate rates would get approved this week. And we are all familiar with the other general arguments supporting buying stocks such as broad global growth, and equities as the place where investors can still get paid for taking risk.
But are we overlooking another compelling factor supporting a continued equity rally?
In his recent research piece "Explaining Soaring US Corporate Profits," Woody Brock of Strategic Economic Decisions discusses some extraordinary 2017 research results from Stanford University economist Mordecai Kurz. In his research paper, Kurz offers a well-reasoned explanation for decades of soaring U.S. stock prices focusing on the role of the IT revolution in creating unprecedented barriers to entry and "monopoly wealth." As Brock explains, "One eye-popping result of his research is that the monopoly wealth generated by the IT revolution soared from 0% of total stock market wealth back in the early 1980s to 82% by 2015. A finding such as this forces us to reconsider the very meaning of earnings, and in particular the concept of the quality of earnings. An analysis along these lines suggests that we may now be in the midst of a completely new kind of stock market bubble."
Kurz's argument that technology monopoly power is a key factor in U.S. equity price increases over the past thirty years is supported by historical data. He further posits this power is a major force fueling our prolonged equity rally.
The Kurz work presents a serious challenge to the common assumption that declining interest rates are the major contributing factor to the long US equity rally. And the next logical question is if the stock market was not as driven by interest rates when they were declining, will the stock market be as affected by the new and impending interest rate raises?

Vulnerability is a Superpower/
"I resolved to finally have a photo session of my own.
I decided that it was time to "walk the talk". I was always talking about showing up and being seen but I was also the one that was hiding in plain sight.
The night before my session, I panicked. I felt super overwhelmed, anxious, scared, and vulnerable. I tried to cancel, but that was not an option.
I tried to make sense of my feelings of vulnerability so I could understand why showing up felt so yucky. Why couldn't I just wave a magic wand and make my anxiety disappear in a puff of smoke? It bugged me, but it made me truly understand the courage and strength the women I work with possess. I see women every day who boldly step through their own fears to start their own business, to get up on stage to speak and find their voice, to have the courage to get in front of the camera like so many have done with me.
And although women have always shared their vulnerability and fears with me before they get in front of my camera, I never truly understood it until I was the one being photographed. Being the photographer on the other side of the lens is a much safer place. Yes, I was empathetic to their feelings, but I never really got it until the day I did it myself.
Vulnerability is a place I don't like to go. It's a dark space that requires major trust, and love, and empathy of SELF. Oddly enough, I am amazing at creating a safe space for my clients during a photo shoot. What I had to learn to do was to create the same safe space for myself."
That excerpt was written by me almost 5 years ago.
And it was eye opening.Read More

Letter From LONDON
Isa Genzken Open Sesame
Goshka Macuga
The Nature of the Beast
Whitechapel Gallery, Whitechapel High Street
April 5 – June 21, 2009
Rebecca Warren
Serpentine Gallery,
Kensington Gardens
March 10 – April 19, 2009
It seems as if this spring is a moment for sculpture, and, in particular, women sculptors. Following a two-year refurbishment, the Whitechapel Gallery is back with two bold women; a stunning Isa Genzken survey and a yearlong commission by the Polish-born 2008 Turner Prize nominee, Goshka Macuga. The former fills the main galleries, while the latter inhabits a newly created space in a former library. As with her more recent ventures, Macuga explores the cultural history of the venue and melds it with recent events. Hence, The Nature of the Beast includes a bronze bust of Colin Powell, a Dr. Strangelove-like conference table, and a tapestry of Guernica, among other items. The tapestry, on loan from the Security Council chamber of the United Nations where Powell had spoken in support of the invasion of Iraq, was determined to be politically sensitive and so was covered during Powell's speech. Picasso's Guernica itself had visited the Whitechapel in 1939 with the help of the Stepney Trade Union Council to raise awareness of the Spanish Civil War. Hence the narrative that Macuga is tracing. Due to the nature of her approach, the atmosphere and appearance of each work is very much determined by the specifics of the situation. However, it is her heightened sense of craft that raises the work above mere social commentary. She seems to have moved from being a sculptor to being a creator of intellectual atmospheres. In this regard, like Kippenberger and Polke, Isa Genzken may well be the model for the intellectual peregrinations of today's young contemporary.
Across two floors and three decades, we can safely say that, although the Berlin-based Genzken's hand is entirely visible, her ideas have shifted and moved with her interests. Collage, painting, sculpture, photography, and assemblage (including wheelchairs) are treated equally as modes of thought and expression; her ideas range across subjects as diverse as minimalism, architecture, New York City, 9/11, and oil, among others.
With its tall ceilings, the Whitechapel is ideally suited for the lanky "monuments" scattered across its ground floor. Most prominent are a group of painted concrete sculptures on metal stands, which recall architectural models or archaeological fragments. They are in fact entitled Windows. Another series of painted strips of wood stand tall, like skyscrapers, totem poles, or screens. The most charming of the sculptures are her early Weltempfänger (transistor radios)—concrete casts of radios with real antennas sticking out. Their obdurate, silent non-functionality presents a pleasant riposte to Warhol's cheery Brillo Boxes.
Like the most iconoclastic artists of her generation, Genzken does not seem to subscribe to one ideological or aesthetic orientation. Yves-Alain Bois has described her as a "bricoleur" and I believe this applies both to the work's thrown-together physical manifestations as well as the artist's intellectual travels. Though more specific, her approach seems very much related to Robert Rauchenberg's idea of working between art and life.
It is Rebecca Warren's exhibition across town at The Serpentine Gallery, however, that really stands out. It is often said that the earlier half of the 20th Century belonged to Picasso, while the latter was determined by Duchamp. Here in Kensington Gardens, it would seem that these two tangents happily find themselves moulded into Warren's unfired clay mounds. Coming just after the YBAs, her work at first appeared to quote or appropriate certain masculine tropes—Brancusi's plinths, the fleshiness of Rodin and de Kooning, Picasso's surrealist biology—and to insinuate wit and humour into this very masculine gaze. Situated in a space of its own is Helmut Crumb (1998), a seminal piece in her development, one that marked her inclination toward appropriation and irony. A nice conflation of Helmut Newton and Robert Crumb—two very dick-on-sleeve, pervy artists—it reduces the sculptural figure to a tennis ball vagina attached to a pair of Crumb-favoured muscular legs towering over a smaller, skinnier pair entangled in pulled-down panties: that is, all leg and ass. Smoothly modelled and well-crafted, Helmut Crumb could be construed as a feminist statement. Certainly with pieces like Bunny (2002) or Pony (2003), both of which quote Degas' dancer, it would seem that Warren's attitude is to re-render these sculptural highlights roughly, and with a big smiley face.
However, this exhibition places greater emphasis on her "abstract" work—both floor-based sculptures and vitrines. Her recent creations are markedly more ambivalent, though her wit is still ever-present. For example, two metal sculptures that look as solid as any Tony Smith or Anthony Caro have, very disconcertingly, little pompoms attached; perhaps to "balance" the work out—both physically and intellectually. Another eight-part group, We are Dead I-VIII (2008), sit silently like melted Easter Island heads on pastel-coloured plinths, some coated with faint paint streaks. Let's call these misshapen lumps of clay "zombie sculptures," that is, not quite alive but not dead either. They seem to be created rather than appropriated, yet they also seem to spring from a readymade idea out of Warren's re-examination of the modernist language: both charming and scary.

Women's Art Collectives: Framing the FutureBy Kathleen Wentrack
MAR 2019 | Critics Page
The decade of the 1970s was an unprecedented moment for women artists and strengthened by the actions of the women's movement of the 1960s, feminist art became, and continues to be, a recognizable force.
Warhol WomenBy Robert C. Morgan
MAY 2019 | ArtSeen
Not since an exhibition of Warhols screenprints some years ago have I elected to write about the work of this monumental art world figure. Despite the controversy at that time, focusing on the history of Jews in the twentieth century, these prints seemed to hold resonances, both aesthetic and political, yet dissimilar to those embedded in Warhol Women.
Burn It Down: Women Writing About AngerBy Deena ElGenaidi

In todays political climate, people, particularly women, are angryand rightfully so. Burn It Down, the forthcoming anthology of essays edited by Lilly Dancyger, features 22 writers who explore what it means to be angry and the reasons for their anger as women today.
Anna Ostoya's and Ben Lerner's The Polish RiderBy Taylor Dafoe
MAY 2019 | Art Books
In June of 2016, Ben Lerner published a short story in the New Yorker about an artist who, on the eve of a big opening, loses two paintings in the back of an Uber. Lerners story was largely based on Polish painter Anna Ostoya, a real-life friend of the authors who experienced this while finalizing an exhibition at Bortolami Gallery earlier that spring.

Check out 4-Year, Peak-to-Peak, Drawdown and Recovery Numbers.
Both the S & P 500 and DJIA lag the IGVSI and neither has come close to 2007 All Time High levels --- the IGVSI established new high ground in April 2011.
The IGVSI is a barometer of a small but elite sector of the stock market called Investment Grade Value Stocks. Some IGVSs are included in all averages and indices, but even the "blue chip" Dow includes several issues that are well below Investment Grade --- very few boast an A+ rating.
IGVSI companies are B+ or better rated by S & P, dividend paying, and historically profitable. See The Charts & Numbers at ValueStockIndex.com.
The Working Capital Model Indices provide benchmark numbers for use with investment portfolios managed using the methodology described in "The Brainwashing of the American Investor: The Book That Wall Street Does Not Want YOU to Read".
Steve Selengut, author of "Brainwashing" and developer of the methodology inside, has referred to it for years as: The Market Cycle Investment Management Methodology (details at MarketCycleInvestmentManagement.com).
Comparing Market Cycle Investment Management (MCIM) component Indices with the S & P 500 confirms what you should expect. These quality based measures fall more slowly, don't bend as far, and regain their upward momentum more quickly than the S & P 500 --- they pretty much have to. But it gets better.
Because the MCIM operating system demands buying on weakness (and because all securities produce income), positions are increased and new positions are added while others panic. A true MCIM user would be taking profits during rallies, in preparation for the next inevitable downturn --- it's part of the methodology.
Investment Grade Value Stocks and high quality income securities - mostly CEFs - are the primary securities contained in Market Cycle Investment Management (MCIM) Methodology portfolios. Then, using disciplines that encourage profit-taking during rallies, and selective buying during corrections, it should be clear that market value performance should do better than brainless (passive, if you will) averages and indices.
Assuming that the average MCIM portfolio has an asset allocation of roughly 50% IGVSI equities and 50% MCMSI income closed end funds, it is very likely that such portfolios will do better over the course of a market cycle than most passive (lazy) investment strategies --- particularly in volatile market scenarios.
The figures speak for themselves, with the MCIMI being the combined IGVSI and WCMSI Indices:
9/30/07 - 3/9/09: MCIMI down 41% vs. S&P down 56% and DJIA down 53%
9/30/07 - 4/30/11: MCIMI up 2% vs. S&P down 11% and DJIA down 9%
9/30/07 - 12/31/11: MCIMI down 1% vs. S&P down 18% and DJIA down 13%
And, by the way, both the IGVSI and the MCMSI on their own, seriously outperformed both major averages during the same time periods, with the IGVSI establishing new All Time High levels in April, 2011.
9/30/07 - 3/9/09: IGVSI down 47% and MCMSI down 35% --- much less drawdown, peak to trough
9/30/07 - 4/30/11: IGVSI up 12% and MCMSI down 8% --- new All Time High in April, others still under water 10% at that time
9/30/07 - 12/31/11: IGVSI up 1% and MCMSI down 4% --- neither major average up, both down an average 15%
Now sit back and imagine how a Market Cycle Investment Management portfolio would have performed during these time frames (and any other true market cycle you can come up with) ---
What if you had bought IGVSI equities and high quality income securities every time the market fell, panicked, or hic-cupped? And then, what if you had the courage to take your profits each and every time they reached a reasonable profit level on an individual issue basis?
Now read that again and let your imagination (understanding?) take hold of your investment future.
Well that's exactly what happens in a portfolio managed using the principles explained in "The Brainwashing of the American Investor: The Book that Wall Street does not Want YOU to Read". Not to mention the added benefit of a consistent and constantly growing monthly cash flow.
Embrace the Market Cycle Investment Management Methodology; smile about your investment portfolio way more often.
No, it's not as sexy as Modern Portfolio Theory "hocus-pocus", and hardly an intellectual challenge. But unlike MPT, it works --- cycle, after cycle, after cycle...

Maud Kells: The night I was shot and left for dead
Suddenly out of the darkness ran two masked figures in camouflage clothing pointing something shaped like a gun, covered in leaves
When Maud Kells was born on the family farm in Cookstown 80 years ago this week, the doctor, who delivered her after a difficult forceps birth, said it would be a miracle if she survived. Yesterday, this redoubtable and hugely inspiring lady celebrated her 80th birthday with the launch of her autobiography, which details her extraordinary life as a missionary, including the night five years ago when she was shot by a bandit in the jungle of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
An Open Door: A True Story of Courage in the Congo is a fascinating and insightful read, taking the reader on a journey from her early years training as a nurse, midwife and missionary to her arrival, aged 25, in the Congo where she was replacing martyred missionaries.
Maud, who was shot just days after being awarded an MBE and is also a former Belfast Telegraph Woman of the Year winner, went on to spend five decades there, providing maternity care and working to build a hospital and nursery in the rainforest village of Mulita.
Here we run two extracts from the book, recalling the night she was attacked - and how friends and colleagues helped her to recover.
An Open Door: A True Story of Courage in the Congo by Maud Kells with Jean Gibson, is published by 10Publishing and is on sale now, £9.99
In her own words... Maud Kells on the night she thought she was going to die
The African night was quiet as I closed the shutters and prepared for bed. A whiff of smoke from dying fires hung in the air. It had been the usual busy Sunday and I was still recovering from the New Year celebrations on Thursday with all the attendant distribution of food and clothes. Onande, my night guard, moved around outside, checking the compound, making sure the gates were well secured with ropes. On occasion his system worked so well the midwife from the hospital was unable to undo them if she needed me in the night, forcing her to waken me by shouting over the hedge.
Tonight, however, there was no shouting. My neighbours were already settled for the night and only the high-pitched chirp of crickets and the occasional croak of a nearby frog disturbed the silence.
Please log in or register with belfasttelegraph.co.uk for free access to this article.
"Mademoiselle, are you awake?" I fought my way into consciousness and checked the time as the knocking on the shutters woke me. Just after midnight. I had had a couple of hours' sleep. I recognised Mama Rebecca's voice.
"What's the problem?"
"A mama has come to maternity who has had three caesarean sections before."
I blinked the sleep out of my eyes as I assessed the situation. "How is she? How is the baby's heartbeat?"
"Everything is fine. She is not in any danger. I'm just letting you know."
I was pleased that Rebecca the midwife had heeded my request to be kept informed of emergencies but it sounded as though all was under control.
"Do you need me for anything? Is there a nurse surgeon there to do a caesarean section?"
"We are fine, we can cope. Nguza and Ramazone are there. I just wanted to let you know what was happening."
"Very good. If there are any problems, if you need IVs or medical supplies from the house here, come back and call me."
"That's fine. I'll do that."
I settled back into bed, grateful for trained staff who ensured I no longer needed to deal personally with each situation.
"Madame, please come, it's an emergency. No one else can do it. We need you."
I shot awake again. It was a male voice this time. Only 15 minutes had passed since the previous call. The knocking on the shutters was insistent.
"I've talked to the midwife, I've dealt with that problem. Everything is under control." I tried to sound patient. It was probably an over-anxious husband in a panic.
"No, no. You need to come immediately. The lady's very ill. They have sent me to get you."
"Why? She's having a caesarean section, she'll be okay," I tried to reassure him.
"No, no. You need to come."
With a sigh, I dressed quickly and slipped my feet into my sandals. Although my bedroom was beside the front door, the key for the Yale lock on that door had been lost during the war so I went out through the back door, locking it behind me. Onande met me on the doorstep.
"Mademoiselle, I heard you talking to someone. Do you need to go to the hospital?"
"Yes, I think it's the husband of a maternity patient who is insisting that I go."
"I'm coming with you."
The hospital compound was only 300 yards from mine but Onande took his protective duties seriously. We checked that the back door was securely locked and set off together, the white dust path picked out in the light of my torch. The gate of my compound was already open and I wondered vaguely whether Rebecca had left it open or the husband who had come to my window.
Between the maternity department and the operating suite, a group of people had gathered: hospital staff and relatives of the patient.
"Mademoiselle, why have you come?"
One of the midwives was confused.
"The man said you needed me. Didn't you send him to call me?"
"No, we didn't send anyone."
"Where is the husband of the patient? I'm sure he was the one who called me."
"I think he's in the theatre with his wife, in the waiting area."
"Well, I don't understand it. Do you need me for anything?"
"No, no. Everything is under control."
I looked at Onande. All appeared calm. "Then we'll just go back."
I was aware of a slight unease. In all my years at the hospital I had never had a hoax call. We went back through the gate of the compound and up the side of the house towards the back door. Suddenly out of the darkness ran two masked figures in camouflage clothing pointing something shaped like a gun, covered in leaves. One of them grabbed Onande and ran off with him. For a moment I froze, then thought of the cash I kept in the house in the absence of local banks. Doubtless a 75-year-old lady seemed an easy target.
"You won't scare me; you won't get the better of me," flashed through my mind as I reached out to grab the weapon. The noise and the pain were instantaneous. I didn't realise a gunshot would be so loud. Pain shot through me from front to back.
A scream that seemed to come from somewhere else brought my attacker up short and he took to his heels as I continued to yell at the top of my voice. It was my only means of getting help but a disturbing stillness followed my screams. Where were the neighbours, the pastor, the chef de poste, the hospital staff?
Blood was pouring from a wound between my shoulders where the bullet appeared to have passed through. Desperate to stem the bleeding, I staggered to the wall of the house, pressing myself against it as firmly as possible. Time seemed to stretch indefinitely as I stood there, fighting to stay conscious and keep the blood flow under control. Call after call elicited no response. Images flitted through my brain: pictures of Jesus left on the cross, crucified and alone.
As on that night, people were too terrified to come near and identify with the victim. It looked as if this was it. I would die here in Mulita where I had invested so much over the years.
I had no fear. I was very conscious of God's presence surrounding me and the Holy Spirit's whisper that He was in complete control of the whole situation. He reminded me of Scriptures that had been precious over the years: 'The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in' (Psalm 121:8, esv); 'My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth' (Psalm 121:2, esv). While I was standing there with no physical help appearing, I thought, "Lord, are you taking me now?" I prayed my daily prayer whatever the situation: "Forgive me, Lord, for anything I've done wrong." Then I added: "I'm ready to go, Lord. But there are a few things I'd like to finish off on earth before I go."
"Mademoiselle is dying! Mademoiselle is dying!" A Congolese friend, Mado, visiting me in Mulita, appeared from the guest house where she was staying.
Having suffered from hearing problems all her life, it was ironic that she should be the first to respond to my screams. As she joined in my attempt to call for help, Mado shouted: "Mademoiselle is dead! Mademoiselle is dead!"
"Mademoiselle is manifestly not dead," I thought to myself. "Mademoiselle is still shouting!"
Onande, a wiry little man, having managed to wriggle free and escape the bandits, came running up, taking in the situation as he tried to get his breath back. "I'll go to the pastor's house and call him."
Realising the pastor was too frightened to come out of his house, Onande dashed off to reassure him that the bandits had gone. His explanation seemed to have the desired effect because almost immediately I heard the drum going as an emergency message went out to the community. I was frozen to the wall, keeping pressure on my back as firm as possible. I could still feel the blood dribbling from my wound and knew that once I moved it would be difficult to stop.
However, I could not stand there indefinitely. As the medical staff supported me into the house, shock and blood loss took over and everything grew dim as I collapsed onto a mat on the floor.
'A rumour spread that I had died and there were fears it would set off violence'
As the mists cleared, I became conscious of hands cleaning me up, of faces hovering above me. I realised John, whom I had trained to take over from me in maternity, was erecting an intravenous drip to replace fluids. "You're alright, Mademoiselle. We've stopped the bleeding and dressed the wound. You're on the couch in your house and I'm just putting up this drip for you."
Behind John I could make out the nurse surgeons Nguza and Ramazone, attending to me rather than patients in the hospital. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "Go and see to that poor lady waiting for the section."
"She's fine, Mademoiselle. Don't worry." John tried to keep me calm.
The room seemed to be full. Local people had come to offer help and to see what was happening. Gradually I recalled the hoax call and the attack that I had thought was going to end my life. Perhaps my work in DRC was not yet finished.
The pastor sent some people to look for my attackers and others as messengers. They informed the chief of the area, who lived at the Lowa ferry crossing six kilometres away. At 3am the chief arrived with his entourage of soldiers and promised to contact his superiors in Punia, the army commander and the state administrator.
Our resourceful hospital secretary lifted my camera from a nearby cupboard and began taking photographs of all that was happening, building up a photographic record of the night. Among them are pictures of the chief and police interviewing me in my semi-conscious state at 3am.
I described the two men I had seen at the time of the attack, although for some reason the police thought there were three. They immediately despatched a search party and at 4am returned to tell us they had picked up one of the men trying to find his way out of Mulita. Not being from the area, he did not know the roads and had been found by local people, who brought him to the police. A German company who were working on the roads in the area agreed to lend the chief a vehicle to get to Punia. On the final leg of the journey he overtook the messengers whom the pastor in Mulita had sent by bicycle to the church leaders there, and so he gave them a lift into town. With the difficulties in travel and communication, it was 5am before the news of my shooting eventually got out beyond the local area.
Church leaders in Punia tried to contact the church president but his phone was out of order. However they managed to get through to Dr Mola, who had been our first Congolese doctor in WEC. He and I had established a firm friendship back in 2002 when we lived next door to each other for two years in Nebobongo. Dr Mola contacted everybody, including WEC headquarters in England and MAF in Nyankunde. My friends in both organisations were upset at the news but sprang into action. MAF immediately rearranged flight schedules so that a plane could come and pick me up.
In the meantime a rumour spread locally that I had died. The governor, afraid that the shooting might be the start of a major incident, sent a large number of troops from Punia, armed with guns and grenades. My death could have set off a spiral of violence. Thankfully God preserved my life and saved Mulita from any further trauma.
John monitored my vital signs, checking the dressings and keeping me reassured when I was conscious enough to hear him. He reminded me that everyone in the church was praying. Mama Jani, my faithful house help, washed my dress and cleaned up the mess in the house. When I asked her later how she managed to get the blood out of my dress, she replied: "You always taught us to soak uniforms in salt and water overnight when there was blood on them so that's what I did." Thoughtful and practical, she packed a bag in preparation for my transfer to hospital.
At midday everyone was relieved when plane engines were heard overhead. The MAF pilot was Jon Cadd, a good friend. He came with other good friends of mine, German missionaries Dr Matthias and Sabine Holmer, who were based at Nebobongo. As soon as they heard what had happened, they volunteered to come down and help with the evacuation. Jon was delayed first by bad weather at Nyankunde and then needed to fly to Nebobongo to collect Matthias and Sabine, so eventually reached Mulita 12 hours after the shooting. By then I was almost unaware of what was happening, though I had a vague sense of people coming into the house.
Jon, Matthias and Sabine brought medical equipment and blood donated by another missionary, Mareike from Germany. Over the next 90 minutes they gave me blood, did an ultrasound to assess the extent of the damage and supplemented my difficult breathing with oxygen. Preparing to take me to Goma where there were British troops with more medical equipment, they contacted the British embassy. However when their investigations showed that my lung damage did not appear to be as extensive as first feared and they managed to get my blood pressure raised to a more normal level, they decided they could do all they needed at Nyankunde hospital. I have no recollection of those 90 minutes of treatment, of being taken to the plane or of the two-and-a-half-hour flight to Nyankunde, but by the time I got there I was beginning to regain consciousness.
I came round as we landed roughly on the uneven terrain at Nyankunde, aware that kind hands were moving me from one place to another, taking me from the plane and transporting me to hospital. Still largely oblivious of my surroundings and with no sense of time, I experienced a great sense of relief to know others were taking care of everything.
The Mulita hospital staff had sutured the back wound and put in a surgical drain. At Nyankunde they opened the wound to check if there were any remnants of bullet. Once satisfied that it was clear, they sutured it again. However it refused to heal, so five days later they removed the sutures and left the wound open with drains in place, continuing to dress it two or three times every day.
After six days in hospital, I was discharged to the home of Jon Cadd, the pilot who had come to evacuate me. Jon and his wife Cher were kind and hospitable, opening their home also to Matthias and Sabine so that they could continue caring for me, looking after my dressings and intravenous drips. Jon loved animals and kept me amused with his numerous pets, including chameleons, snakes and a parrot which he had taught to drink Coca-Cola.
Any movement I made set off waves of pain, but medication to treat the pain made me nauseated and sleepy. Trying to work out why I was feeling so ill and weak, I asked the doctor to cut down the medication. I began to feel better and decided I would rather have pain than the dreadful nausea...
Sometimes reading helped to take my mind off my own situation as I followed the adventures of others. I was particularly impressed by two books I read at Nyankunde. Evidence Not Seen by Darlene Deibler Rose is the story of a young American couple who served in Indonesia as missionaries with New Tribes Mission during the Second World War. They were imprisoned by the Japanese in separate prisoner-of-war camps. When I read what that young wife suffered, and compared it to my own situation of love and care, I thought: "What I'm suffering is mild in comparison. I have little to complain about." It helped me to put everything in perspective and the happy ending cheered me greatly.
Another book I enjoyed was The Help, set in Mississippi in 1962 and an interesting study of black maids in a white world. Coming from a background of living and working with Africans as colleagues, I found the whole topic gripping. Reading the book and watching the accompanying movie helped me forget about myself and was part of my recovery. As I enjoyed this time of reading and reflection, I suddenly realised that the only chance I had to read over many years was when I was unwell. In a normal day there was always too much to do to sit down and read a book. If I tried to read at bedtime, I would fall asleep.
Even during my times back in Ireland I was always busy preparing for and speaking at meetings, keeping house, looking after the garden and visiting. I rarely set aside time just for myself. It was somewhat of a revelation. This recuperation time also gave me a chance to look back and realise with gratitude how much I owed to MAF. If it had not been for them, I could not have carried on the work I had done in Mulita over the years. Not only had they made this remote area accessible, but the pilots had become my friends and cared for me when I needed help. Set up 70 years ago by two young men with one little plane flying in Sudan, the organisation is now an international network flying more than 140 light aircraft to around 1,700 destinations. I took time to thank God for the vision behind the whole organisation and the Christian love shown by their staff.
I realised again the truth of Paul's words to the Corinthians about the Christian family being the body of Christ: 'But God has put the body together … its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honoured, every part rejoices with it. Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it' (1 Corinthians 12:24-27).
