Groupings are usually given definite number of members.
But if you want to work individually you can do so.

Crowds
Crowds and music blends well as long a respect for people's spaces are recognized. Crowds like the one you are going to see on the subject matter of behavior seems to be in disorder. But here on a demonstration at Washington DC, crowds follow their leaders.
I heard the song Blowing in the Wind, when I was a teen-ager. We were singing it in a Catholic Church, at San Juan, I was part of a choir.
Compare the definition of crowds to the one you are going to see at www.youtube.com type in the following tags: Peter Paul and Mary, Washington DC 1971 and Give Peace a Chance John Lennon.
You can also look it up at Wikipedia.org

AA Starters 01
Greetings!
For starters on sociology: please click on the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sociology you will encounter hundreds of blue links on that site. My suggestion is you just go ahead reading. After reading the article do write your questions in which we are going to discuss.
One of my favorite definition of sociology is "it is the study of becoming". Since we are social beings (social-animals-homo-sapiens) our interaction shape our being. Look at the social forces around you, family, roles, parents, beliefs, mass-media, schools, peer-group-kada, club, organization, culture (we have a special chapter in culture) ... there are various forces that shape our decisions. Thus, are we free?
We (I) may not be free but we (I) can decide.
When we decide on our own, will that affirm our freedom? Yes and No.
Yes, because we believe that we have decided and that is a manifestation of being free.
No, because some would say that freedom is an illusion.
Well, this may go on and on. But it is nice to experience how we make decisions and really decide on our own or with the help of our significant-others. But in the end it is up to us to decide, that is according to one student of life.
There are many constraints particularly for adolescents like my students in wanting what they want to achieve. Thus, they have to work hard on what they want to do with their life. Some of them are stucked, because they do not know what they want in life or they do not know their life direction is. Thus, we have a problem here. Adolescents usually encounter this dilemma: What do I (the adolescent) really want to do with my (their) life?
Me? When I was young, I was stucked with this problematique. What do I want to do? How can I become relevant? I have a life, what shall I do with it? (Are you identifying with these questions? Can you relate with it?). In a way I was able to resolve it years later.
Thus, schools have instituted structures to engage with such problems, schools have assigned counsellors to guide students. Of course these problems have links with family life since the family is the basic unit of a living community. Visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institution
We are now going to do the timeline, a classroom activity. Bring two-short white paper and join them together length wise with a tape. Bring a ruler and a pencil. You can go to the title AA timeline if you missed the classroom discussion.
We are society. We are part of society and society is part of us.

AA Timeline 02
For those who were absent in our previous meeting, here is how you are going to do the timeline:
1. Get two pieces of white paper, either short or long. With a tape, bond them from the middle. Thus, you have added the paper one paper size longer.
2. Get the middle part length-wise and write a straight line by using a ruler.
3. On your left starting line write "Birth". At the end of the paper, write "Death".
4. The straight line is your time line. You are to determine how long you are going to spend your time here on Earth. Eg. (exempli gratia, example: 70 years old). Write 70 years old at the end of the right side of the paper. At the middle, you write 35 which is you theoretical mid-life. You can either divide the timeline by fives or tens.
5. Most of you land somewhere on year 16, 17, 18 (not your fault!) On the left side of this is your spent time and on the right side of this is your time to be spent or lived. See how much hours you got and years!
6. This gives you a graphic tool to plan your life (or not to plan it, you decide)
7. Now you have to see me on what intervention we are going to do with your paper.
8. If you are finish share it with your trusted classmate.
9. Please place it in a folder because that is a work in progress.

Mistake
A mistake
When I went back to my original http address, the address that I wrote was a misspelling. It went to: http://mallofosciology.blogspot.com I am now looking how I will be able to edit it.
Teachers also make mistakes. That is a learning we get out of life.

Picture on Top
The picture was taken last year, July, at Bangor Maine. Am with my sister-in-law and his son. It was such a nice place. I just came from Washington DC for the 2006 World Cancer Conference from 4-12 July.
Picture below is a picture taken inside a classroom in which I am showing the two books made by Dr. Judith Mackay et al. The two books are Tobacco Atlas and Cancer Atlas.

What do you know Lonely Tsunami?
I discovered that I named myself, but which you know my real identity appearing in your registration form that my name in which I hide my real identity is Lonely Tsunami.
Such a name that, could there really be a Lonely Tsunami that exist? Is it for hiding something like an identity in the cyberspace that you and I are occupying which is really a minuscule in atomic weight.
Or was it the terrible tsunami that hit Bandar Aceh in December of 2005? My intended adjective is meaningless in that situation because that tsunami wreaked havoc to the lives of millions in Indonesia, stretching to Malaysia, Thailand, India, Bangladesh and Africa.
I encourage you to visit You Tube for video clips and news items that you can find at available text search engines. Just write relevant tags as you do the search.
Lonely Tsunami, was it just like, name recall? What do you think?

After surfing the page of mallofsociology, I found out that I did created a blogsite last April by the name of SM SociologyMall.
The contents in which I have written (copy, paste talaga!) below. Please do click on the link. Feedbacks are welcome. Welcome again!
Thank you.

Welcome to this blog-page.
This is one of the ever growing blog space/s that is being created in the cyber-space. In a recent research every 11-seconds a blogpage is being created.
Listen. You can just estimate how many pages is being created in the cyber-space. All those words are being typed now from Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Swahili, English (hakuna matata), Polish, German, French etc.
Let's digress a moment to our Sociology 101 is your introductory course about Sociology (Please visit www.wikipedia.com and search on the label sociology and other related label anthropology).
They say that Rome was not built in a day. Thus, learning sociology will not be in just one blogspace.
Get my drift?
You will be given assignment and more and more readings.
Enjoy this semester. AL Jose Leonidas, magical ahhhhh

Thank you for landing into my blogsite. This is my really directed (read: serious) blogsite. I have had made several blogsite but I forgot their addresses already. The purpose of this blogsite is to inform my students of SO101 on their present course, Introduction to Sociology. I teach this at Miriam College.
As our course outline says on page two, our semester's text book is Sociology in the Philippine Setting by Hunt, Green, Espiritu and Quisumbing.
Just send me a feedback if you have problems in acquiring the book. At this time circa June 2007, our library is getting organized to move to the new LMC. Thus, it is in the state of "do not borrow books this week". We have to wait for another week when they have moved already to the new building. Thank God we have a new building!
As of this time Senator Trillanes has been proclaimed Senator by our COMELEC. If you like you can create a blogsite like "Senator's Watch". The goal of this is watching your favorite senator as to how he/she is doing in the senate. You can form a group of 4 and you can report to me at the end of the semester how that Senator has fared in his work. You can ask him/her agenda for the coming months. But before doing this do consult me for details and know senate protocols (look that up in the dictionary).
If you decide to work on this project you have to consult me so that we can build a structure of your work. The work will have an equivalent work-points on the subject. There is a reward points.
mallofsociology is the title of this blogsite, just like 168 at Divisoria, there will be lots of posting here coming from my evolving neural connections and coming from students.
Again welcome.
Next is about Learning, perception and magic.
