A twisted ankle waiting to happen.
Injuries on the trail are common, be they banalities like blisters or lacerations from overgrown foliage, or serious concerns like dislocated shoulders while rock-climbing or snake bites. Outdoor lovers know the wilderness comes with risk of bodily injury. But those who know best venture boldly into the wild prepared with a knowledge of what to do if harm should befall them.
There's no guarantee that Google will be there to help when gashes, scrapes, or broken bones arise, and medical help isn't always just a phone call or car ride away. The best medicine for any type of injury is preparedness, so it's important to know what to keep in your pack for everything from a day hike to a month-long sojourn, plus how to treat common injuries and frequent misconceptions about wilderness first aid.
Your first aid kit need not be as big as this.
The length and remoteness of your trip—a well-worn day hike trail? unmarked wilderness?—will dictate what you should put in your pack. Climate, altitude, and destination will play a part, too, but chances are, you won't need bottles of antiseptic and a full splint kit if you'll only be gone a few hours and the trail is easily accessible from major roads. Likewise, you should bring more than a few adhesive bandages and aspirin if you'll be away from civilization for a days or weeks.
Tod Schimelpfenig, Fellow of the Academy of Wilderness Medicine and curriculum director at the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) Wilderness Medicine department, suggests starting with a small kit. Most of the time, the kind you can get at your local outdoor store will suffice. But if you prefer to build your own kit, he suggests packing a pair of nitrile or latex gloves, antiseptic ointment, bandages, gauze, larger dressings, an Ace wrap, tweezers to remove splinters, and a blister care kit.
For longer treks, the kit Schimelpfenig recommends is similar, but more robust. "Safety pins are always helpful," Schimelpfenig adds. Transparent dressings come in handy, too and for blisters, nothing acts like a protective second skin like kinesthesiology tape. But his number one recommendation: consider what can go wrong and what access you'll have to medical attention, cell service, or fellow hikers. "Prevention and planning can go a long way," he says.
As for the bulky extras, while some find packing triangle bandages and splint kits bring peace of mind, Schimelpfenig prefers to improvise with items like handkerchiefs and tree branches, things he likely already has in his pack or can easily find on the trail.
Ace wrap comes in handy for pains, sprains, and strains that pop up on the trail.
The most common injuries in the wilderness are cuts and lacerations. While you might just throw a bandage on it and call it a day when you slice your shin in your own backyard, don't underestimate how easily a small wound can become infected and cause much larger problems.
"Keeping wounds clean is difficult in the wilderness," Schimelpfenig says. To do so, first, stop the bleeding and evaluate the situation. Is it over a joint, does it gape open, is it showing underlying structures? If so, time to call it a day and get to a doctor. If it's small and non life-threatening, irrigate the wound with water that's safe to drink and thoroughly clean out any debris or foreign particles. Add antiseptic and dress it with the appropriate bandage. Change the dressing and check for infection (swelling, redness or pus) every 24-48 hours.
For other injuries and accidents, Schimelpfenig recommends taking a wilderness first aid course through NOLS or at a local outdoor center. Proper training will not only teach you how to wrap a twisted ankle, dress a wound, and immobilize broken bones, but also introduce life-saving skills like administering CPR, stopping excessive bleeding, and maintaining an open airway. They also instill confidence and resourcefulness, which are necessities in the backcountry, Schimelpfenig says.
Snake bites are rare, but here's how you to handle the problem if it happens to you. Also did you know that certain weather makes it more likely you'll be bit by a rattlesnake?
There's nearly as much bad advice regarding wilderness first aid as there is good advice. You need to know the difference. You may have heard that sucking venom out of a snake bite or giving the bite area a mild shock will slow the spread of the poison. Unfortunately, the only remedy for snake bites is anti-venom, so don't bother with other remedies; the sooner you can get to the hospital, the better.
Likewise, tourniquets often get a bad rap for doing more harm than good, but Schimelpfenig says otherwise: it's a very effective method of stopping life-threatening bleeding. "Tourniquets save lives," he says. "Limbs are not automatically sacrificed when a tourniquet is applied." But do reserve the technique for severe bleeding only.
If the worse-case scenario should happen, you'll be glad you packed your satellite phone or personal locator beacon.
"The more remote you are, the more training you should have," Schimelpfenig says. While most outdoorsy individuals can benefit from a 16-hour wilderness first aid course, those venturing far into the woods or the mountains may want to consider something closer to a 40-hour wilderness first aid or 80-hour wilderness first responder course. The longer you're out there and the farther away from civilization, the longer you'll have to care for yourself or someone else.
The first step involves being able to recognize threats to life, like obstructed airways, breathing problems, cardiac arrest, severe bleeding, or anaphylaxis. Recognize the signs and prioritize those issues so that you can thoughtfully and confidently address the major issue first while also considering secondary injuries that may cause discomfort, but aren't life-threatening.
Lastly, be cognizant of where you're going and what types of communication might be available or recommended. If you know you won't have service, is the area where you're hiking well-traveled? If so, even if you do get injured, there's a good chance someone will pass by eventually. If not, consider packing a device like a satellite phone or personal locator beacon to call for help if you or a companion need it.
With the right training and gear, you can boldly embark upon the wilderness adventures of your dreams and be prepared for just about anything, come hell, high water, or twisted ankle.

The moment you see a person drowning is shocking and comes without warning, but without a plan, the impulse to go to their rescue can be deadly.
The Royal Life Saving Society of Australia (RLSSA) says there has already been 48 drowning deaths reported this summer compared to 31 at the same time a year ago.
In research conducted by the RLSSA, a quarter of the 90 cases it studied involved the death of a person trying to rescue someone else.
"We want to applaud the people who attempt to save a life," said Professor John Pearn, the national medical director at RLSSA.
"But the only way to overcome the courageous impulse, often with these fatal results, is with prior training.
Here are the steps to perform resuscitation on a baby under 12 months.
Always swim in a patrolled location and between the red and yellow flags at the beach, Steven Pearce, chief executive of Surf Life Saving NSW, advised.
However if you choose not to, Mr Pearce advised to always plan ahead, bring a flotation device (surfboard, boogie board, pool noodle, etc) with you and check that you have mobile phone reception.
If you see someone struggling, alert a lifeguard if you are at a patrolled location and then call triple-0.
Many bystander fatalities occurred when someone swam to a person in need, became exhausted, and then the panicked victim climbed all over them, Mr Pearce said.
He acknowledged that it was hard to advise parents against entering the water if a child was in trouble.
"It's so difficult to tell a parent never save their child — that's why you need to have a plan," he said.
"You shouldn't try and effect a rescue yourself unless you have an idea of your own swimming ability or have a flotation device.
The RLSSA's mantra is to shout, reach, wade, throw or row to somebody in the water, be that throwing a tied group of shirts or a hose or reaching out with a rake or lifeline of some sort.
If you have a flotation device and have swum to the victim, pass the device between the two of you and tell them to hold on to it.
If the victim is a toddler or young child, get them onto the flotation device as quickly as possible.
Try and alert others who can help such as a surfer or people on a nearby boat.
Once back on land, ensure triple-0 has been contacted and start first aid procedures.
If they are breathing, place the person in the recovery position.
If they are not breathing, commence CPR.

This is not how Nick Kyrgios would have envisaged spending his Christmas ahead of a busy summer of tennis and a title defence.
Nick Kyrgios is set to fly into Queensland to prepare for his Brisbane International title defence after spending Christmas in hospital nursing a spider bite.
Organisers said Kyrgios, 23, was on track to arrive in Brisbane on Friday after the tennis star revealed on social media he had a far from festive time during the holidays.
World No.35 Kyrgios had to be treated in a Canberra hospital over Christmas after being bitten on the foot.
"Got a spider bite on my foot. Christmas different every year," Kyrgios posted on Instagram.
Organisers were confident the hospital visit would not derail Kyrgios' preparations, saying his Brisbane International plans were still in place.
Kyrgios is the eighth seed at the Brisbane International which starts on Sunday.
He is hoping to bounce back in 2019 after his ranking slipped from world No.21 to 35.
Kyrgios began the year in style by claiming the Brisbane crown in January — his fourth career title — when he defeated American Ryan Harrison in the final.
However, it was his only tournament triumph in 2018.
He entered 16 events but after his Brisbane win only advanced past the round of 16 four times — none at a grand slam.
His frustrating season ended abruptly in October due to a recurring elbow injury, forcing his withdrawal from Moscow's Kremlin Cup.

Two teenagers have been rushed to hospital after they were both stung by the deadly Irukandji jellyfish while swimming at Fraser Island.
Two teenagers have been rushed to hospital by helicopter after they were stung by deadly Irukandji jellyfish in waters off Fraser Island in Queensland yesterday.
A 13-year-old boy and 14-year-old girl were taken to Hervey Bay Hospital by the RACQ Lifeflight helicopter in a stable condition.
It's understood the teens were on a boat with family just off the coast of the island when they were stung.
Emergency services were called to their boat off the island's western coast. Two other people in their group with suspected stings were treated at the scene.
Quick turn-around back to Fraser Island for the #RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter. Reports multiple people suffering suspected marine stings.
#FraserIsland – Paramedics and emergency services, including the rescue helicopter, are responding to reports of several people from one vessel stung by suspected Irukandji jelly fish in the waters off of Fraser Island.
The four victims come a week after three different swimmers were stung by irukandji at Fraser Island in separate incidents.
Surf lifesavers swept the waters surrounding the island just before Christmas after a nine-year-old boy was stung however the warm water has caused irukandji populations to explode.
Irukandji jellyfish may be elusive during far north Queensland's big wet but they're set to come back in big numbers when the sun comes out.
After they forced the closure of two northern Queensland beaches last weekend, including Ellis Beach near Cairns when a teenage girl was hospitalised with stings to her upper body, no irukandji have been spotted in swimming areas since.
One of the world's deadliest creatures, the jellyfish prefer calm, warm waters and tend to stay away during heavy rainfall, with some far north areas receiving up to 200mm since Boxing Day.
But the risk of irukandji stings will increase once the rain stops, according to toxicologist Jamie Seymour.
"All this rain, it'll fire all jellyfish up," Professor Seymour told AAP.
"What you tend to find is after you've had big rainfall events, like we're having at the moment, we'll have large numbers of jellyfish, assuming the weather settles back down.
Prof Seymour said Queensland had recorded almost 20 irukandji stings this year, including four off Fraser Island.
"It is above average. In Cairns, we've had at least seven stings. This time last year, we had one," he said.
"The (stinging) season has become longer. 50 years ago, the season was about a month.
"Now, it's about 5-6 months.
Swimmers are advised to wear complete stinger suits before going in the water, especially around the Fraser Island area.

He was surfing on his own on Sunday morning … something so many Aussies do in their spare time.
Except yesterday Joel Mason was attacked by a shark (species as yet unknown), managed to swim to shore, was airlifted to John Hunter Hospital and is now recovering with five deep lacerations to one of his lower legs.
Unlucky to be there at that spot at that time, but incredibly lucky that Nambucca Heads surf lifesaver Paul Graham, 38, was not far away and was able to apply a tourniquet to Joel's leg … something that probably saved his life.
Now on a flight overseas, Paul's mother, Yvonne, said it was indeed fortunate for Joel that Paul was there.
"Paul knew exactly what to do and did it – he is very calm in moments like that," Yvonne said.
According to Bowraville Central School's principal, David Taylor, Joel, who is a sports teacher at the school, texted him this morning: "Guess what! not at work today".
"He seemed in good spirits," David said.
Also thinking of him was Nambucca surfer Richard Ellis, who was attacked in the same spot in 2001.
"The first thing I noticed was the helicopter hovering yesterday morning so I knew something was up.
"Then we heard Joel had been attacked … he's a robust, tough guy and a really good surfer … I am really feeling for him today as the reality of the situation bites," Richard said.
"It brings back a whole range of emotions … a sense of relief that it is not me, bizarrely, and also that he is alive – that we are both alive.
Richard said he was certainly more cautious now about where and when he surfed.
"I never surf if I see fish jumping because the risk is clearly greater if there is food around … but basically the risk is always there and with more people, more interactions are always likely.

A wayward red-bellied black snake brought a new meaning to the word "legless" after the metre-long serpent managed to curl its way inside a wine glass.
The venomous reptile was photographed snug inside the glass in Adelaide, sending many wine aficionados into a frenzy.
"Glass of red…. belly," Snake Catchers Adelaide joked, sharing the picture to Facebook yesterday after it was called out to remove the snake.
The reptile was seen coiled up tightly inside the glass on a table, beside a bottle of Mollydooker The Boxer Shiraz.
"This red belly is almost a metre long, it's just to show you how small of a space snakes can inhabit," the reptile expert wrote.
One woman who saw the picture joked it was "not quite the full-bodied red" she liked to see on a Sunday afternoon.
Many others commended the snake for its fine choice of drop.
"We have the snake catchers come to Mollydooker every year for snake awareness training, first time I have seen one in a glass!" one man commented.
Red-bellied black snakes are one of the most frequently encountered snakes on the east coast of Australia, and are responsible for a number of bites every year, according to the Australian Museum.
They are a shy species and generally do not deliver a serious bite unless severely provoked.

A Perth man owes his life to a group of strangers and an Australian-first technology.
A mobile phone app saved Mark Lee's life after he suffered a heart attack in the city's CBD.
As frantic passersby tried to bring Lee back on Murray Street, Danny Rummukainen– who was entering a meeting just a block away– was alerted to the emergency by his St John First Responder app.
"Straight away looked at it, told one of my other supervisors let's go," he told 10 News First.
The app allows qualified first aiders to sign up as a first responder to receive notifications when someone has called 000 for an ambulance within 500 metres of their current location.
It also provides life saving tips and the location of all nearby defibrillators — a feature which Rummukainen used when responding to Lee.
According to doctors, the 58-year-old was dead for about 12 minutes before this quick response ahead of an ambulance started his heart again.
"[I'm] eternally grateful. I can't say enough," an emotional Lee told 10 News First.
The first moments after someone suffers a heart attack are critical.
Lee was rushed to hospital and put in a coma, but without the speedy response and early intervention of a trained first aider, the outcome may have been very different.
"This is life saving technology," Paul Hogg, the paramedic who attended the scene, said of the app.
Since launching in WA in 2017, thousands of trained volunteers have signed up to the St John First Responder app. Similar apps are also in use in New Zealand and the UK.
To become a first repsonder, volunteers must have completed a first aid course within the past three years and the minimum qualification level of Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

All learner drivers in NSW should be required to do first-aid training in a bid to reduce the state's road toll, a parliamentary committee on road safety has been told.
Learner drivers should be required to do five hours of first-aid training as part of their 120 hours of driver training, St John Ambulance has proposed in a submission to the Staysafe Committee's review of road safety issues.
Learner drivers should be required to do five hours of first-aid training as part of their 120 hours of driver training, St John Ambulance says.
The first-aid training would focus on the three leading causes of death in a road accident by teaching new drivers how to control bleeding, clear airway obstruction and perform CPR, and could save more than 50 lives every year.
There have been 376 fatalities on NSW roads in the past 12 months and nearly 11,600 serious injuries in the 12 months to March.
Chair of the Staysafe standing committee Greg Aplin said the St John submission is one of 34 it received in response to a call for ideas from the community on ways to improve road safety.
"We made this call because we were conscious of stakeholder interest in the issue and we thought this was something unusual we could do in NSW to see the topics emanating from the community," Mr Aplin said.
"There were topics raised that we're very familiar with, there are always those things that irritate the public like people not keeping to the left in dual carriageways, but two submissions stood out.
Mr Aplin said that how much training is needed and whether it is a practical proposal would need to be examined by the government but that the idea has merit.
"We believe that saving lives and reducing the impact of injuries is important and we need to look at whether this is a means of achieving that," he said.
St John Ambulance said it already provides first aid training to more than 55,000 people every year and has 3000 volunteers available to roll out the initiative.
"The First on Scene training course would be delivered using the latest technology combining both on-line and practical learning techniques to [fully] engage the 16-24 target audience," the submission states.
Mr Aplin said another noteworthy submission, from young driver educator Blue Datto, proposed more targeted campaigns to address local road issues, especially in regional communities.
Other submissions called for more local road funding to reduce fatalities, the improvement of crash investigations and changes to the heavy vehicle industry.
"One of the things that I personally hope will happen out of this inquiry will be that the government will see the areas of concern and follow those up," Mr Aplin said.

Drones and jet skis will patrol the skies and sea during surf events and surfers will be offered free first aid training under a suite of new shark mitigation measures unveiled on Saturday.
Fisheries Minister Dave Kelly announced the measures at Trigg Beach alongside Surfing WA chief executive Mark Lane.
Surfing WA CEO Mark Lane with Fisheries Minister Dave Kelly launching their new partnership at Trigg Beach.
Under a partnership with Surfing WA the state government will provide two surveillance drones and a jet ski to keep surfers safe during events and will fund the Surfers Rescue 365 program for three years, which will deliver free first aid training tailored to surfers.
Four other measures were also revealed including a new scientific advisory panel on sharks, a new Shark Smart app, a refreshed Shark Smart website and improved whale carcass management.
The app would provide real-time alerts direct to mobile devices while the website would feature a new shark activity map with details about satellite-linked receiver locations, beach enclosures and surf life saving club locations.
It will also launch the $365,000 'Sea Sense' education campaign to notify the public of the strategies.
Shark attacks are ingrained in the public consciousness after the Margaret River Pro was sensationally shut down following shark attacks earlier this year.
On Monday a 33-year-old was killed while in the Whitsundays.
Fisheries Minister Dave Kelly said the new initiatives would bolster the existing shark mitigation strategy, giving ocean users more information, more choice and more assistance.
"Starting tomorrow, we also have a new campaign to help Western Australians develop their Sea Sense and stay safe," he said.
"It can be the simple things that can keep us all safe, like checking the SharkSmart website for shark activity, finding your nearest patrolled beach, or buying a scientifically proven personal shark deterrent if you're a surfer or diver.
"Usage of the SharkSmart website is lower than we'd like and therefore it is really important Western Australians know they have the tools to make information choices.
Mr Lane said the measures were a step in the right direction.
"Is there more that should be or could be done? Yes to both of those but the fact is these initiatives are really the most that ever has been done in this space historically," he said.
A SMART drumline trial will start off Gracetown in 2019.
Mr Lane welcomed the trial.
"The fact that the government is going to come up with an evidence based approach, it will answer whether it works or not and will put that argument to bed," he said.

It was a similar scenario for the Valencia girls' volleyball team, only with a different outcome, one that might have preserved its opportunity to contend for a ninth consecutive Foothill League title.
Following a five-game loss Tuesday to West Ranch, the Vikings were pushed to a deciding game again Wednesday at Hart.
But this time, Valencia delivered in the clutch, outlasting the Indians 25-15, 25-19, 20-25, 23-25, 15-11.
Emily Ellias' block on Anissa Robinson broke an 11-11 tie in the fifth, serving as the catalyst for Valencia's run to close out the match.
"We had a little bit of a meltdown at the end of the fourth game (relinquishing a 22-18 lead) and we couldn't close the deal, but I was really happy with how they responded (in the fifth)," Valencia coach Ray Sanchez said.
Serena LeDuff had 20 kills, Ellias contributed 18 kills, Alexa Schmidt added 12 kills and Sierra Sanchez recorded 10 kills for Valencia (9-7, 5-1), which travels today to play in the Nike Tournament of Champions in Phoenix.
North Hollywood 225, Van Nuys 234: The Huskies won their first Valley 1 League title as medalist Monica Petchakan fired a 2-over 40 at Balboa Golf Course.

Jann Vongchaisaree shot a 42 for Van Nuys (4-2, 4-2).
Tri-Valley League tournament: Despite shooting a 77 at River Ridge's Victoria Lakes Golf Course, La Reina's JoJo Sottile captured the league title with a 27-hole score of 115, edging out teammate Celia Sacks (119), who posted the best score Wednesday with a 75.
Sottile joined past La Reina champions Jennifer Marshall, Alana Maiello, Catherine Pease and Kelsey Conway.
Also advancing to the Northern Individual Regional tournament Nov. 1 at Las Posas Country Club in Camarillo were Nordhoff's Evelyn Avila (125) and Oaks Christian's Juliette Ponte (133).

Let's look at the critical parameters one a time. First, the length of the trip. Short trips around Huntington Beach are harder on an engine than longer ones. As your engine cools down, water in the air condenses onto the engine. When you heat the engine again, the water evaporates off. This is healthy. But on short trips, the engine doesn't stay hot enough long enough for all of the water to evaporate so it starts to build up in the engine oil leading to sludge, which can clog up your engine and lead to serious engine damage. If most or all of your trips around Fountain Valley are less than four miles, you should consider using the severe service maintenance schedule. Changing your oil more frequently at Beach Benz in Huntington Beach will help prevent the formation of sludge.
Each sedan engine has a "power band," or the range of RPM's in which it runs most efficiently. Generally this power band falls in the range of California highway speed driving. So if you're driving around town in Huntington Beach all the time, your engine has to work harder. That's why gas mileage ratings are so much better on the freeway than in the city. Again, this type of driving is considered severe and requires more frequent maintenance for your transmission, cooling system and brake fluid.
Most of us Huntington Beach car owners think of severe California weather conditions when we think of severe driving conditions. And we're right. Cold Fountain Valley area weather takes its toll on the oil in your vehicle. Remember how water has to evaporate out of the oil to keep your engine healthy? It can take up to ten miles of driving for an engine to get hot enough to get rid of moisture in the oil when the weather is cold.
Hot Huntington Beach weather is also harmful for sedans. When an engine runs, it gets hot. The longer it runs, the hotter it gets. If it gets too hot, it breaks down. So it has to be constantly cooled to keep running. Hot California weather means your cooling system has to work harder to keep your engine from getting too hot.
Another important element of severe driving is the conditions we drive through. Dusty, polluted Huntington Beach areas are harmful to your filters. Dirt, dust and contaminants will also get into your fluids, and they'll get dirty faster, so they'll need to be changed more often as well. Finally, when you're pulling a trailer around Huntington Beach, carrying heavy loads or using a car-top carrier, you are putting more stress on your engine. The engine, transmission and brakes are all working harder to handle the extra load.
So, in the end, most of us Huntington Beach auto owners drive under severe conditions some of the time.

Hear what people are saying about The Heights!
Ask our Parents
"The challenging curriculum, with its emphasis on the western canon and a traditional approach to learning, has taught our sons the meaning of discipline and given them a deeper understanding of their own cultural roots—as Americans and as Catholics."
— Upper School Parent
"The teachers at The Heights are extraordinary role models. They are men of deep faith, which is vitally important at a moment when our culture seems to be teaching very little about responsible manhood—and very little about faith. Whether it's out in the Valley, or in the classroom, our boys are learning about hard work, generosity toward others, and courage."
"My son has blossomed at The Heights. This past year the one-on-one advising has had a tremendous impact on his behavior at home. His advisor calls me once a month and asks in what virtue or good habit I'd like my son to grow. Over the year we chose several areas for improvement (orderliness in his work, care to treat younger people with more respect and willingness to perform chores and other tasks without complaints). I couldn't be happier with the way he has responded to the suggestions and encouragement of his advisor. I am deeply grateful for all that he hears from his teachers in class and from his advisor."
— Middle School Parent
"They (the faculty) share a profound vision of what it means to be a boy and what it takes to take the clay that is a boy and shape in it into a man—and more specifically, a Christian gentleman."
— Lower School Parent
Ask our Alumni
"Above all I thank The Heights for the confidence I felt my freshman year of college. I did well in my classes because I had been taught how to work, and I made great friends because I had been taught how to recognize them.I felt confident because I had been prepared academically and socially."
— Class of '99
"Flannery O'Connor says in her spiritual writings, 'The truth does not change according to our ability to stomach it emotionally.' I believe it is The Heights' uncompromising commitment to the transcendent truth that separates it from all other schools."
Ask our Faculty
"Every day I truly look forward to going to work at The Heights. My colleagues are intelligent, talented, and personable. As teachers here, we are entrusted with a truly noble task—to help boys grow into gentlemen. Teaching at The Heights is an honor and a joy."
— Middle School Teacher
"Working with so many other individuals, who share not only a common vision for The School, but also a genuine love and enthusiasm for what they do and who they teach is inspiring."
— Upper School Teacher
"What I've loved about this School are the friendships—with my peers and my teachers."
— Upper School Student
"I hear the word 'gentleman' as an address so often that I almost take it for granted, but that is really how the faculty treats us."
"The teachers expect a lot from us, and it can be really tough. But it's kind of an honor because it's clear they know we can do it."
"I love the freedom that the teachers give us to do things ourselves, but they're also there to help when we need it."


Often labeled "sharabi-kebabi" or "adhe Mussalman" (half Muslim) because of their gastronomic adventurousness, the Mathur-Kayasthas have always considered themselves to be sophisticates, well versed in matters cultural—and culinary. Often, in a household, the passion for music (or dramatics and urdu poetry) would only be overshadowed by an interest in food, with dining room conversations routinely centred around the next meal!
Traditionally, the kayasthas, who trace their roots to Chitragupta, the mythic "account keeper" in the court of Yama, Lord of Death, were accountants, ministers, and members of the judiciary in not just the Mughal and Muslim courts of medieval India but also in the many princely states, great and small, that were to dot British-India subsequently. At this time, members of this educated, close-knit community — that took great pride in its learning — were to also find their way into the administrative services and the judiciary, something that has only recently been overtaken by a near universal fixation on "software"!
The community's unique Ganga-Jamuni culture is no doubt the result of close interaction with the ruling Muslim elite in whose courts the menfolk often occupied favoured and high positions. This cultural affinity could be seen in the preferred attire of the men (flowing, crisp, chikan kurtas or formal bandhgalas), their luanguage (urdu, over Hindi, the bhasha dismissed as that of the "pandits"), their music and poetry (Hindustani classical, baithaks would be held at home and it was common for both men and women to indulge in some form of amateur shaayari, or, at least, rhyme-making) and, of course, in their cuisine — which was a unique amalgamation of Hindu Vaishnavite traditions that the womenfolk remained moored to (evident in a firm espousal of vegetarianism and religious practices) and the Muslim courts-inspired cosmopolitanism of the men.
Spread over much of north and central India—Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and Haryana — the community, and its, food, was also inspired by regional influences. And there were subtle culinary (as well as cultural) differences between a Mathur home in, say, Daryaganj, old Delhi, and Jaipur, Benares or Gwalior. Of course, marriages and the fact that the community, which saw itself as "progressive" was always ready to adopt newer, (trendier) influences, meant that recipes were often exchanged and regional cultures got mixed up. Each household, indeed, would thus boast of its own unique repertoire, comprising both classics and newer dishes entered into the family tomes thanks to the chachi from Kanpur or the daughter-in-law from Delhi! In a single meal, thus, it would be quite possible to enjoy kalmi vade (Old Delhi style), shaami kebab (with their Avadhi moorings), mangore (essentially from Madhya Pradesh), and take paise (most probably a take on the Rajasthani gatte).
However, there are some classics that you may always expect from a Mathur table. These include Yakhni Pulao, Badam Pasande, and kofte, made of minced mutton, and typically enjoyed with puri, not "Muslim breads" like roomali rotis that a "Hindu kitchen" would have been ill-equipped to make (though these were sometimes sent for from the market).
In the old days, meat—the cuisine was mutton-centric, chicken being largely unknown — would be cooked in an outer kitchen, separate from the "pure" inner one. However, as meat-eating became central to the cuisine, more and more women of the households would start cooking it without qualms, taking pride in their delicacies, yet secure in their religious roots by not actually eating any of it. Turning out a pressure cooker full of the most aromatic of koftas in a jiffy for an afternoon lunch became routine for these homemakers, who stuck to their vegetarianism nevertheless.
But if non vegetarian delicacies formed the heart of this highly stylized, often laboriously made cuisine, the vegetarian strand was important too. Kadhi-chawal or pooris with safari aloo (dry potatoes, coated in masala, which would stay during long journeys in trains) were staples. The vegetables were all cooked well, with onions and generous quantities of oil, in stark contrast to contemporary ways, and even simple seasonal produce would be sought to be transformed into a delicacy by stuffing it with besan, dal, dry masala or potatoes. (Paneer was unknown and only began appearing in home menus post Partition when Punjabi food became popular). So, you will also find a surfeit of bharwan or "stuffed" veggies on the Mathur menu—with everything from bottle gourd to bitter gourd to karamkalla (cabbage) and okra being painstakingly "filled" and dum-ed or fried.
If the women—and some men—were vegetarian, they were hardly spartan, and concocted their own gourmet meals much before the soya-inspired mock-non vegetarian fare that we see in south-east Asia and China became a known quantity. Vegetarian recipes, approximating (or thought to approximate) non vegetarian flavours and appearances were concocted. Banana "fish" or moong dal shaamis as well as kaleji ki subzi ("liver" subzi), once again made of lentils, were much appreciated. There was also a special focus on pickling (lasode ka achaar, kathal ka achaar or even kanji vada, where dumplings are pickled in seasoned water, were favourites) and major festivals such as Holi and Diwali saw the appearance of besan papdis, unique to the community, papad like, but made fresh with a much more delicate seasoning.
As with other traditional communities, fasting and feasting, both involved intricate culinary preparations. The makhane ki kheer on janmashtami (fasting food) being as sought after as the kaliya (mutton curry), made mandatorily on Dussehra, to end the nine day period of abstentation before that.
The food may be disappearing from our tables these days, cooked only on special occasions now and in a handful of traditional homes, but it was a cuisine of secular India— albeit unintentionally.
You have a gorgeous blog! My brother in law has been to India and he said it was amazing, beautiful place, especially the food. Interestingly, why was chicken relatively unknown? I would have imagined otherwise.
Hi Adrian, tks. In Hinduism, chicken was considered "unclean", since the farm birds fed on scraps etc. So both chicken and eggs were notfavoured, except in the north-west/undivided Punjab. Goat meat was traditionally popular (as also game, hunting is now banned in India). Chicken came post partition, from Punjab.

"WHAT A MAN" – Milner gets praise as Reds move 3 points closer
Liverpool achieved job priority No. 1 on Saturday: getting back to winning ways with a 2-1 victory over Bournemouth, with the Reds' ability to bounce back on show once again.
A clear theme earlier in the season was the way Jurgen Klopp's squad reacted to setbacks, be it in terms of player injuries or needing late goals.
That resilience was on show against West Ham a few weeks ago, too, and will be needed against Atletico Madrid next week—but first and foremost, three points on the board against the Cherries were a requirement after three defeats in four.
Despite Callum Wilson's contentious early strike, Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane turned the game around for the Reds, who were without regular goalkeeper Alisson, captain Jordan Henderson and left-back Andy Robertson through injury.
It meant Adrian came in between the sticks, James Milner returned from injury to start at left-back and the midfield was once again switched around by the boss.
Speaking to the club website after the game, Adrian said the team's ability to find a win after recent defeats proved that they remain on the hunt for major prizes and that the side is ready to take on all challengers.
Adrian also made the point that the experience within the team has to take centre stage at the toughest of moments, helping each other back to the right track.
"It was a tough game after a few bad results. The confidence of everyone was a bit down but I think today we showed the winning mentality is back, the team came back after the early goal from Bournemouth.
"We showed again that we are here to face the end of the season and face the big challenges that are coming and the three points was the most important thing today, and we got them.
"I think the experienced players, we have to show character out on the pitch. When you are not in the best moment, to show that character and come back full of confidence. I think today we showed character, we came back into the game, we scored two good goals with Sadio and Mo."
Of course, the focus is always on the next game at Liverpool and that goes double this time, with a rest-of-the-season-defining midweek clash to look forward to in the Champions League.
As the Kop rightly sings, we're gonna win the league, but if the Reds want to prolong meaningful action into late April and May then Champions League progression is a must.
That means coming from 1-0 down against Atletico Madrid at Anfield in the second leg, and Adrian says the squad are already looking ahead to that game and preparing for nothing other than victory.
"On Wednesday we face a big challenge against Atletico Madrid here at Anfield. We need to come back against the result in Madrid but Anfield will be on fire for sure, the fans will be supporting us from the first second.
"We will go for the game from the first second and from tonight we will be thinking about that game because it is the most important game of the season right now.
"I think we know the style of play of Atletico. We have to prepare in the next few days as well as possible to try to keep the ball, be patient, to move the ball quick because for sure they are going to defend the result here.
"But it's going to be very difficult for them to defend again for 95 minutes, here at Anfield it's a different history.
"Madrid was Madrid but now we have the second leg here so we hope and we are thinking to try to come back in that game and win the game for sure."
Meanwhile, at the other end of the pitch, Salah hit his 70th league goal in his 100th league game for the Reds.
He was typically modest about his achievements, saying it's all about the team when speaking to BT Sport post-match.
"I always love to score and help the team to get the points and today we showed our personality after [going] 1-0 down, so we had to react to that and I think we did well and we got the result.
"We need to keep going for the next three games and the rest of the season."
Left-back Andy Robertson was left out as a precaution, but had only massive words of praise for the player who took his position, with James Milner producing a vital last-ditch clearance off the line.

Egyptian mobs attack, grope female reporter
Another sexual assault in Tahir Square
(Agence France-Presse) A French female television reporter was sexually assaulted during a protest in Cairo's Tahrir Square, she told AFP on Saturday, the latest of such attacks on women covering unrest in Egypt.
Sonia Dridi, a correspondent for France 24, said a mob of mostly young men surrounded her on Friday while she was on the air and then began to grope her. The attack lasted several minutes before a male colleague managed to pull her out.
"I was groped everywhere. I realised (later), when someone closed my shirt, that it was opened, but not torn off," she said.
"I avoided the worst because I have a good belt" and a friend helped her out, said the reporter, who eventually found refuge in a fast food restaurant.

Reepham High School & College has put forward one of its teachers for an "Eco Hero" award.
The nomination is part of the annual Norwich and Norfolk Eco Awards, which celebrate projects and schemes that demonstrate a commitment to an environmentally friendly ethos, while giving individuals and groups a platform to showcase their achievements.
Matt Willer, who teaches GCSE and A Level History, launched the multi award-winning Allotment Project in 2015 on an abandoned corner of the school playing field, bringing together the school and local community to run it.
Mr Willer helped create the allotment almost entirely with recycled items, collecting more than 150 fly-tipped tyres along with upcycled bathtubs and toilets to form growing spaces.
He helps grow produce with the children for the school's kitchen and the wider community, and has promoted other eco-improvements to the school such as more bins solely for plastic recycling.
He has received visits from the Bishop of Norwich and the chairman of the Royal Horticultural Society and has even received a personal invitation to meet Prince Charles as a result of his environmental work.
Mr Willer said he had never sought any praise for his involvement with the Allotment Project and the school's recycling campaign. "I believe that if you go, as a primary goal, after these awards then, quite frankly, you are doing it for the wrong reason," he commented.
Mr Willer said he is now planning to replicate his experiences of the project in other, particularly challenging, schools in Norfolk, adding that to receive this award "would just be a real bonus for my future enthusiastic ambitious plans.
The awards are hosted jointly by Norfolk County Council and Norwich City Council.
Voting ends on Wednesday 4 March.

Manuscript Title
"If We Don't Include Literature, Where Do We Teach Our Students From?" An Effort to Introduce Children's Literature to Indonesian Preservice Teachers
Tati L Durriyah, Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) JakartaFollow
Indonesia's new literacy initiative called Gerakan Literasi Sekolah (GLS) focuses on developing literacy-rich school environments through a sequence of book engagements. As the locus of control in daily literacy activities (Lehman, 2007), teachers in Indonesia assume much of the responsibility for student literacy learning. Despite this, Indonesian teachers receive minimal preparation in facilitating literacy instruction using literature; for example, courses that introduce student teachers to children's literature are not commonly offered in Indonesian teacher education. This study aims to fill in the dearth of data regarding the efforts to introduce Indonesian preservice teachers to literature for children and the pedagogy of literature in an introductory children's literature class. One semester's data shows the promising development of preservice teachers' perceptions of reading literature and literature's role in teaching; teachers reflect upon being a reader, cultivate an understanding of literature, and envision teaching with literature. Findings also reveal what is yet missing from the GLS literacy initiative, most notably the need for literacy teachers who are knowledgeable about literature and who are able to teach with literature.

The Best Churches in Malaga
In today's article we will review the most interesting and beautiful churches in the city of Malaga. It is a complex selection, as each church in Malaga has characteristics that make it unique, full of history and art. Most of the churches in Malaga are part of Malaga's Holy Week brotherhood, and usually have beautiful sculptures inside, which during these dates go on procession through the city. Some artists like Pedro de Mena, Fernando Ortiz and Micael Alfaro are the great masters responsible for Malaga's imagery.
It is also interesting to add that the churches of Malaga were in former Muslim mosques, of which part of their base and materials were reused. Initially these churches were characterized by a late Gothic style, but this was quickly replaced by the Renaissance style. However, most of the churches in Málaga are identified with the predominant style in Andalusian religious art: Baroque.
1 Malaga Cathedral
2 Santiago Apostle Church
3 Saint John the Baptist Church
4 Holy Mary of the Tabernacle Church
5 Holy Martyrs Church
This cathedral is popularly known as "La Manquita", since one of its towers was not finished. However, its real name is La Santa Iglesia Catedral Basilica de la Encarnación. It is the most important temple in Malaga, and it is even considered a jewel of the Andalusian Renaissance. It was built on the foundations of the city's main mosque, of which the courtyard of the orange trees and the remains of the wall that currently make up the Sagrario Church have been preserved. From this point, do not forget that we have the best tourist guides with whom you can make a Free Tour of Malaga.
Its construction was carried out by order of the Catholic Monarchs after the conquest of Malaga in 1487. Several architects participated in its construction, among which we can highlight the masters Diego de Siloé and Andrés de Vandelvira, starting its construction in 1528 and ending in 1782, although it was not completely finished: although it is popularly said that it lacks the south tower, it really lacks five towers.
Its construction took more than 250 years, so its original Gothic plans were replaced by a Renaissance project. It finally ended up being decorated in a predominantly Baroque style, so it combines these three styles in the same building, something that makes this cathedral something really special and makes everyone who visits it fall in love.
Santiago Apostle Church
This church is one of the oldest in the whole city: its construction began in 1509, reusing the base of an old mosque. It stands out for bringing together a wonderful mix of architectural styles, with Mudejar Gothic prevailing over the others, with an impeccable symbiosis between the art of the Catholic Kings, Muslim art, and the Baroque style of the early 18th century.
In 2006 a restoration was carried out which revealed a beautiful mural painting, and in the last few months it was opened to the public again, allowing access even to its incredible crypt. It was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in the category of Monument in the same year. As a curiosity it is interesting to add that it was the church in which Pablo Picasso was baptized in 1881.
This church is among the buildings in Malaga that have been declared a Site of Cultural Interest. Furthermore, it is also one of the oldest in Malaga. It was ordered to be built by the Catholic Monarchs at the same time as the cathedral, the Holy Mary of the Tabernacle Church, the Santiago Apostle Church, and the Holy Martyrs Church.
It is in the old suburbs of the Muslim medina from the 15th century. Where it has mixed different artistic styles. In its origins it was going to be a Gothic temple, but progressively it was transformed to the Mudejar style, something evident in its beautiful bell tower. In addition, in its interior it emphasizes its imposing baroque decoration.

This temple lost its tower in a collapse caused by the Lisbon earthquake of 1775, so it had to be rebuilt. The date of its restoration is inscribed on the tower's arch.
Inside we can find some of the most important carvings of the Holy Week, which are kept inside the different chapels: Jesús de Azotes y Columnas, Cristo de la Redención, Cristo de Ánimas de Ciego, Nuestra Señora de los Dolores; all of them belong to the Sacramental Brotherhood and the Royal Merged Brotherhoods.
Holy Mary of the Tabernacle Church
It was built between the 15th and 18th centuries, located in the historical centre, specifically in Santa María Street. It was built in the Elizabethan Gothic style, while its interior has a beautiful Plateresque altarpiece, the work of Juan de Balmaseda. Its construction caused many problems from the beginning, since in 1525 its work was stopped until the 18th century, when it was finished. At this time, the first building was demolished, as it was in ruins, and rebuilt.
In 2020, archaeological remains of a paleochristian church, probably from the Visigothic period, were found under the floor of the temple. This certifies the Christian presence in the vicinity of the cathedral at a very early date. It was declared an Asset of Cultural Interest in 1931.
The oldest work in the complex is the Gothic doorway through which you enter the church of the Tabernacle. It is thought to have been built in 1489 at the base of the old minaret of the mosque, by order of the first bishop of Málaga. It is a masterpiece of Elizabethan Gothic.
Holy Martyrs Church
It is located, like the rest of the churches, in the historical centre. It was built in honour of the martyrs San Ciriaco and Santa Paula, who are the patron saints of the city. The church has undergone numerous renovations over time since its initial Mudejar Gothic style, especially with subsequent Rococo influences of the 18th century, although it still retains its Mudejar tower on the outside.
It consists of four brotherhoods, being the most fraternal temple in the city: The Archconfraternity of the Passion, the Brotherhood of the Holy Supper, the Brotherhood of the Column (Gypsies) and the Archconfraternity of the Garden. It is also joined by various guilds of glory. Such as the Patrons of Malaga Ciriaco and Paula, the Virgin of Remedies, or the Virgin of Grace of Archidona, and the Virgin of Araceli. In turn, since 2011, the Association of Mercy Queen of Martyrs is established. In addition, if you wish to take advantage of your visit in Malaga and make use of our guided tours, we recommend the Caminito del Rey, whoso experience is enriching.

Whither "the foreign" in foreign language education?
Where is "the foreign" in language education? Is it going out of style, falling out of favor, abandoning the claim it used to have on places and people in popular discourse?
The Arizona Department of Education recently began telling school districts that teachers whose spoken English it deems to be heavily accented or ungrammatical must be removed from classes for students still learning English.
How do you say "mother" where you're from?
Did you ever wonder why the word for "mother" in so many languages features the sound "ma"? Here's a nice article courtesy of Langology (Facebook link; "@langology" on Twitter) in recognition of Mother's Day.

FARGO-It's 775 miles and about a 12-hour drive from Fargo to Springfield, Mo., and last year, Missouri State head football coach Dave Steckel had to ride in a car with the immediate thought of a 55-0 beating by North Dakota State. Certainly, tough times indeed.
Eye surgery meant he couldn't fly with his Bears' players and assistant coaches and the Bison loss ended his first season at 1-10.
His thoughts in that car ride: "I have a lot of problems to fix," Steckel said this week. "I kept taking notes and writing on how to fix those problems and how to move this program forward."
It's already to the point now where the Bears are 3-1 heading into a Saturday home game against North Dakota State. Granted, it's been a light schedule opening with NAIA Southwestern College (Kan.) and winning at Ohio Valley Conference non-title contender Murray State (Ky.) 28-22. But the Bears also turned some heads last week winning at nationally-ranked Indiana State to open their Missouri Valley Football Conference season.
Steckel, however, isn't doing jumping jacks.
"We won a couple of games, fantastic, we're getting stronger but I don't think we're there yet and we're getting faster but I don't think we're there yet," he said. "We've done a better job of coaching but I don't think we're there."
Steckel's eye ailment wasn't an easy fix, either. He underwent emergency retina surgery, something that took about six months to completely heal. He couldn't even lift his head for a time, including the weekend of the Bison game. He wore specialized glasses for awhile and he recalled the lights from the rafters of the Fargodome as "coming at me."
"My life is a blur," Steckel said. "I had a couple more surgeries. Now I'm back to no glasses, great vision and I thank god for my eye surgeons. The good lord took care of me, it wasn't easy at all."
The Steckel family has never been one to back down from adversity. The family, which includes his brother Les Steckel who went on to become the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings, grew up in the shadow of steel and concrete mills in western Pennsylvania. Both he and Les are veterans of the Marine Corps with Dave serving for three years. Their father is a war veteran.
"Discipline was instilled in the family," Dave said.
When asked if the eye problem was the toughest time in his life, he immediately pointed to Marines boot camp.
"Ever been to Parris Island?" he said of the training ground on the coast of South Carolina.
Springfield, Mo., is a long way from Parris Island and despite the 3-1 start, Steckel carries the feeling that his program has a long way to go before challenging the top programs in the Missouri Valley Football Conference on a weekly basis.
Eight starters are either freshmen or sophomores. The starting quarterback, Breck Ruddick, was suspended from the team indefinitely after allegations of animal cruelty on a dog.
That was a day before the Kansas State game, which ended 35-0 but it was also halted after two quarters because of severe weather.
The school completed a renovation to Plaster Field in 2014 that was funded by a $50 student fee per semester, a referendum that was passed by the students. The program has a new weight training facility. It seems everything else, however, continually needs to be upgraded, Steckel said.
"The whole program," he said. "Everything from the work ethic to recruiting, which we are completely responsible for. We have to keep increasing facilities and the budget. And we have to set the bar, making sure we graduate players, give them a first class education and improve the football program."

What do who's and whose mean?
Whose is the possessive form of the pronoun who, while who's is a contraction of the words who is or who has.
However, many people still find whose and who's particularly confusing because, in English, an apostrophe followed by an s usually indicates the possessive form of a word. (For example, a purse belonging to a woman is "the woman's purse.") Not the case here, though. So, to help clarify further, watch this video that illustrates the differences and read more below!
When do you use who's?
The first thing to figure out when deciding between who's vs. whose is whether you need one word (whose) or two (who's). Substitute the words who is, (and then who has) into your sentence. If either substitution works: who's is your word.
Who's is a contraction of who is or who has. A contraction is a shortened form of two or more words where the omitted letter (or letters) is replaced by an apostrophe. So, when the bears in Goldilocks and the Three Bears ask each other "Who's been sitting in my chair?", it can also be understood as "who has been sitting in my chair?" And, if you're wondering "Who's going to write these words with more confidence?", we hope that the answer to who is patting themselves on the back right about now is you.
Who's as strong as an ox?
My aunt is someone who's living in California.
Tony told me who's coming to the party.
When do you use whose?
The word whose is possessive, and it is often used as an adjective, which is a word that describes or clarifies a noun or a pronoun. So, in this case, whose is a possessive adjective, because it describes who owns something. Traditionally, whose was only used to describe a person or several persons, as in "Sarah, whose dog is cute, just arrived." In this case, whose indicates which person's (Sarah's) dog we're talking about. Imagine it's raining and you grab an umbrella, only to realize later that it isn't yours. You might ask your friend "Whose umbrella is this?" In other words, you're asking who owns the umbrella.
Over time, it's become grammatically acceptable to use whose to describe things belonging to inanimate objects and places, as well. "New York is a city whose lights burn brightly all night long." Here, the lights belong to the city.
Whose dog chewed up my homework?
The ring came from a fire whose light was as bright as a star.
When I figure out whose paper this is, I'll sign it.
What about its vs. it's?
And, since you might already be thinking it . . . yes, the same confusion also exists between the homophones its and it's. Its, with no apostrophe, is the possessive form of the pronoun it (it's never its'), while it's is a contraction of the words it is or it has.

7-Yr-Old Autistic Boy on First Solo Flight Helped by Kind Stranger
(Facebook/Alexa Bjornson)
Flying solo can be stressful for anyone. Now imagine you're 7-years-old and doing it for the very first time. That was the case for Landon Bjornson, a young boy from Las Vegas who was traveling to visit his father in Oregon.
Landon has high-functioning autism, which can make even short trips difficult for him. However left with no choice, his mother, Alexa Bjornson, packed his bag and gave him a note to give the passenger seated next to him. The note explained that Landon has autism, would be making the trip alone, and that he may frequently ask "are we there yet?" She also included $10 for whoever was next to Landon for helping him to feel safe and comfortable.
"I thought, how do I make it so whoever's sitting next to him won't look at him as a burden but more of like, I can help this kiddo get through the day," Bjornson told news station KATU.
Fortunately for Landon and his mother, the person occupying the adjacent seat didn't need any incentive to ensure the young traveler had an enjoyable flight. Ben Pedraza, Landon's cabin companion, said their time together was full of laughter, sending his mom this message as they landed in Portland:
Alexa was floored. "My heart just dropped." She posted the note on Facebook along with a message of gratitude. "I am so grateful to this individual, and that there are still kind people in the world who make a difference like I try myself to do as well."
The post soon went viral, with stations all over the country sharing the juvenile's joyous journey and the photo of the Landon and Ben on their flight.
"We were cracking jokes, and after a while, he asked me to quit making dad jokes," Pedraza later told KATU. As for the $10, Pedraza says he donated it to the Autism Society in Landon's name.
Along with praise for his good deed, the viral story has also landed Pedraza several requests asking if he's single. His response: "I'm off the market for sure, definitely, but I'm flattered," adding he hopes the attention stays on autism awareness, and not his actions.
