Dig into SoCal's ancient roots on Archeology Day


Archaeology offers a window into the deep human past, connecting modern communities with thousands of years of history. California holds evidence of human activity stretching back more than 12,000 years, from early Native American settlements along the coast to artifacts unearthed near Los Angeles and San Diego.

Southern California alone has yielded Paleo-Indian stone tools more than 10,000 years old and village sites occupied for millennia.

That legacy will be in focus Oct. 4, when the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area hosts its 10th annual Archaeology Day at King Gillette Ranch in Calabasas.

The free event will run from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the recreation area's Interagency Visitor Center at 26876 Mulholland Hwy., as part of California Archaeology Month.

Organizers say the event is designed to make archaeology accessible, especially for young people.

Families can try hands-on excavation in a dig box, throw spears with an atlatl, handle replica tools, and watch flint-knapping demonstrations that show how stone was shaped into arrowheads. Genuine artifacts will be on display, and children can earn a Junior Archaeologist patch.

Local experts will give talks throughout the day. Speakers include Ann Stannsell, Angeles District archaeologist with California State Parks; Karla Saracay, a graduate student at UCLA; and Devlin Gandy, a professional archaeologist. An archaeology lab table will demonstrate how specialists study artifacts, while local organizations will share their ongoing work in the field.

The event, co-sponsored by the National Park Service and California State Parks, also features performances and food available from an on-site vendor. Parking is free.

Organizers emphasize that archaeology is not about dinosaurs—that's paleontology— but about understanding how people lived in the past. Across the state, archaeologists study ancient settlements, burial sites and artifacts that trace California's cultural diversity and environmental changes over thousands of years.

In a region steeped in archaeological significance, the event provides an opportunity to unearth the stories that shape Southern California's identity— one brushstroke, bone fragment and dig at a time.

Cohesive texts employ various linguistic devices to create semantic unity and logical progression. The final sentence "one brushstroke, bone fragment and dig at a time" uses metaphorical language to convey which implicit meaning about archaeological methodology?

Education: A Comprehensive Overview


Education encompasses the teaching and acquisition of knowledge, proper conduct, and technical proficiency. It emphasizes the development of skills, trades, or professions, along with mental, moral, and aesthetic growth.

Formal education entails structured instruction, teaching, and training delivered by professional educators. It involves the application of pedagogy and the creation of curricula. 

The right to education is a fundamental human right. Since 1952, Article 2 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights has mandated all signatory parties to ensure this right. At the global level, the United Nations’ International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights of 1966 guarantees the right to education under Article 13.

Educational systems are established to provide education and training, often targeting children and youth. A curriculum outlines what students should know, understand, and be capable of doing after completing their education. The teaching profession facilitates learning, and a framework of policies, regulations, examinations, structures, and funding supports educators in delivering high-quality education.

Primary (or elementary) education encompasses the initial years of formal, structured education. Typically lasting six or seven years, primary education begins around the age of 5 or 6, though this timeframe varies among countries. Globally, approximately 70% of primary-age children are enrolled in primary education, with this figure steadily increasing.

In most contemporary educational systems worldwide, secondary education covers the subsequent years of formal education occurring during adolescence. It marks the transition from compulsory, comprehensive primary education for minors to optional, selective tertiary, or higher education (e.g., university, vocational school) for adults.

Higher education, also referred to as tertiary, third stage, or post-secondary education, is the non-compulsory educational level following the completion of secondary schooling, such as high school or secondary school. Tertiary education typically includes undergraduate and postgraduate programs, as well as vocational education and training. Colleges and universities serve as the primary institutions offering tertiary education and are collectively known as tertiary institutions. Completion of tertiary education often leads to the attainment of certificates, diplomas, or academic degrees.

HOW TO COPE WITH THE SUNDAY SCARIES


by Chantelle Lee


    ________(1) Sunday night, and you’re feeling sad and anxious about going back to work in the morning.

 

    Say hello to the Sunday scaries 


   You’re not alone in your workweek dread: “They’re very, very common,” says Susanne Cooperman, a neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst at New York University Langone Huntington Medical Group. “There’s nothing wrong with a person if they feel sad that the weekend is over. It’s when it really interferes in your functioning—when you can’t focus, when you can’t sleep, when you feel yourself medicating with alcohol—then you need help.”


   Here’s why people get the Sunday scaries and the best ways to combat those thoughts of doom and gloom.


   __________(2) are the Sunday scaries? The Sunday scaries typically manifest in two ways: feelings of depression that the weekend is ending, feelings of anxiety about the week to come, or both. These feelings typically start on Sunday afternoon.


   “It could be that you feel sad and irritable and you have difficulty concentrating and fatigue,”


   Cooperman says. That collection of feelings is called anhedonia—basically a loss of enjoyment.


   If you feel more dread for the work week ahead, that’s called “anticipatory anxiety,” she says.


   Why people get them 


   The scaries strike for all kinds of reasons. They could be related to work—maybe you’re afraid of losing your job, or you’re dreading going to the office in person, or you’re simply having a hard time unplugging from work after hours, Cooperman says.


   Or, she adds, it could also be that you overbooked yourself during the week and feel exhausted by the time Sunday comes around.


   How to deal with the Sunday scaries


  One of the best ways to deal with the Sunday scaries is to mentally plant yourself firmly in the present. One way to achieve this is to try a mediation or relaxation app, even if it’s only for 10 or 15 minutes, Cooperman says. “I think that’s probably the best out of all the tips: stay in the moment, really try to curtail that catastrophizing into the future,” she says. There are other paths away from the scaries, too: Unplug from your phone or social media, maintain a good work-life balance, do some exercise, or get some fresh air. Make sure to schedule fun activities for Sunday afternoon and evening and do things that reliably make you feel better or help you “refuel [your] batteries,” Cooperman says. Just as important is allowing yourself downtime to relax and unwind, she adds. She also recommends trying to split up errands throughout the week so you don’t feel like you wasted your entire Sunday doing them.


   While the Sunday scaries are common, people should keep an eye on how they’re coping come the end of the weekend. “Use healthy, adaptive ways to self-soothe when you’re anxious and have the scaries,” Cooperman says. “A glass of wine is fine, but if it’s more than that and you need it every night, then that’s a problem.” If the scaries are so bad that it’s significantly impacting your life, Cooperman suggests talking about these feelings with a therapist or a psychologist. Some warning signs include being so anxious that it’s hard to get out of bed in the morning, having anxiety attacks, needing alcohol to calm down, not being able to focus or sleep, or failing to enjoy the weekend at all. “If you just can’t get out of that loop where you’re constantly unhappy, then I think you’re at a place where you should see a psychologist or a therapist,” Cooperman says. “Sometimes it’s hard to [deal with it] on your own. It’s good to talk to a professional.”

HOW TO COPE WITH THE SUNDAY SCARIES


by Chantelle Lee


    ________(1) Sunday night, and you’re feeling sad and anxious about going back to work in the morning.

 

    Say hello to the Sunday scaries 


   You’re not alone in your workweek dread: “They’re very, very common,” says Susanne Cooperman, a neuropsychologist and psychoanalyst at New York University Langone Huntington Medical Group. “There’s nothing wrong with a person if they feel sad that the weekend is over. It’s when it really interferes in your functioning—when you can’t focus, when you can’t sleep, when you feel yourself medicating with alcohol—then you need help.”


   Here’s why people get the Sunday scaries and the best ways to combat those thoughts of doom and gloom.


   __________(2) are the Sunday scaries? The Sunday scaries typically manifest in two ways: feelings of depression that the weekend is ending, feelings of anxiety about the week to come, or both. These feelings typically start on Sunday afternoon.


   “It could be that you feel sad and irritable and you have difficulty concentrating and fatigue,”


   Cooperman says. That collection of feelings is called anhedonia—basically a loss of enjoyment.


   If you feel more dread for the work week ahead, that’s called “anticipatory anxiety,” she says.


   Why people get them 


   The scaries strike for all kinds of reasons. They could be related to work—maybe you’re afraid of losing your job, or you’re dreading going to the office in person, or you’re simply having a hard time unplugging from work after hours, Cooperman says.


   Or, she adds, it could also be that you overbooked yourself during the week and feel exhausted by the time Sunday comes around.


   How to deal with the Sunday scaries


  One of the best ways to deal with the Sunday scaries is to mentally plant yourself firmly in the present. One way to achieve this is to try a mediation or relaxation app, even if it’s only for 10 or 15 minutes, Cooperman says. “I think that’s probably the best out of all the tips: stay in the moment, really try to curtail that catastrophizing into the future,” she says. There are other paths away from the scaries, too: Unplug from your phone or social media, maintain a good work-life balance, do some exercise, or get some fresh air. Make sure to schedule fun activities for Sunday afternoon and evening and do things that reliably make you feel better or help you “refuel [your] batteries,” Cooperman says. Just as important is allowing yourself downtime to relax and unwind, she adds. She also recommends trying to split up errands throughout the week so you don’t feel like you wasted your entire Sunday doing them.


   While the Sunday scaries are common, people should keep an eye on how they’re coping come the end of the weekend. “Use healthy, adaptive ways to self-soothe when you’re anxious and have the scaries,” Cooperman says. “A glass of wine is fine, but if it’s more than that and you need it every night, then that’s a problem.” If the scaries are so bad that it’s significantly impacting your life, Cooperman suggests talking about these feelings with a therapist or a psychologist. Some warning signs include being so anxious that it’s hard to get out of bed in the morning, having anxiety attacks, needing alcohol to calm down, not being able to focus or sleep, or failing to enjoy the weekend at all. “If you just can’t get out of that loop where you’re constantly unhappy, then I think you’re at a place where you should see a psychologist or a therapist,” Cooperman says. “Sometimes it’s hard to [deal with it] on your own. It’s good to talk to a professional.”

Question must be answered based on the following poem.


The art of losing isn’t hard to master; so many things seem filled with the intent to be lost that their loss is no disaster.


Lose something every day. Accept the fluster of lost door keys, the hour badly spent. The art of losing isn’t hard to master.


Then practice losing farther, losing faster: places, and names, and where it was you meant to travel. None of these will bring disaster.


I lost my mother’s watch. And look! my last, or next-to-last, of three loved houses went. The art of losing isn’t hard to master.


I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster, some realms I owned, two rivers, a continent. I miss them, but it wasn’t a disaster.


—Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture I love) I shan’t have lied. It’s evident the art of losing’s not too hard to master though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.
