I pray that we will be more sensitive towards the suffering in the world around us and not be blinded by our own selfish nature and interests. I hope this picture will always serve as a reminder to us about how fortunate we are and that we must never ever take things for granted.
Think & look at this...when you complain about your food and the food we waste daily..." MAY ALL BEINGS BE FREE FROM SUFFERING!!!!

Collective Behavior(A. Dagoy)
Collective Behavior has a special meaning in sociology. It refers to social processes and events which do not reflect existing social structure (laws, conventions, and institutions), but which emerge in a "spontaneous" way. These are the behaviors that are not guided by norms.
The primary criticism of CONVERGENCE PERPECTIVE is that there is a tendency for people to do things in a crowd that they would not do on their own. The homogeneity of the group is over simplified as interaction takes place between individuals, whether or not they are of similar characteristics. The EMERGENT NORM PERSPECTIVE is a combination of like minded individuals that leads to a crowd behavior. It takes a symbolic integrationist approach to understanding crowd behavior. The VALUE ADDED APPROACH series of structural and interactional conditions resulting in definite patterns of behavior. Structural conduciveness (emergence of conflicting interests) structural strain, belief, precipitating event, mobilization and failure of social control.
A crowd is a group of people, also known (especially in the United States) as a mob. The crowd may have a common purpose or set of emotions, such as at a political rally, at a sports game, or during looting, or simply be made up of many people going about their business in a busy area. Milling, anonymity, suggestibility and circular interaction are present in the crowd. CASUAL CROWD (loosely organized , group has a little unity and members are come and go) example there is a 50% sale in Mall. CONVENTIONALIZED CROWD (it has a regular way of behaving) it can be seen in basket ball games were the people are clapping their hands. ACTING CROWD (persons whose attention is on controversial issues) example are the mod and the riots. Mob is group of persons stimulating one another to excitement and losing ordinary rational control over their activity. Riot are a form of civil disorder characterized by disorganized groups lashing out in a sudden and intense rash of violence, vandalism or other crime. While a riot may be premeditated and intentionally incited, a true riot is quickly joined by people without foreknowledge of the riot. While individuals may attempt to lead or control a riot, riots are particularly chaotic and exhibit herd behavior. Panic is the primal urge to run and hide in the face of imminent danger. It is a sudden fear which dominates or replaces thinking and often affects groups of people or animals. Panics typically occur in disaster situations, or violent situations (such as robbery, home invasion, a shooting rampage, etc.) which may endanger the overall health of the affected group. The word panic derives from the name of the Greek god Pan, who is said to have the ability to cause fear of lonely or open places.
Mass is consist of disparate individuals and each responding independently to same stimulus. It is very loosely organized and has a little unity. It may be observed in issues like “Hello Garci” tape.
Fashion is a prevailing custom or mode of behavior that reflects to the prevailing interest of society and is centered upon the spread of change in life-style. Fads it is a temporary fashion manner of conduct that is followed enthusiastically by a group. Crazes a popular or widespread fad and fashion. It is like fad but more intense.
Public is about the what of belonging to the people; relating to, or affecting, a nation, state, or community; opposed to private; as, the public treasury, a road or lake. Public is also defined as the people of a nation not affiliated with the government of that nation. Public also refers to the general body of mankind, or of a nation, state, or community; the people, indefinitely; as, the public; also, a particular body or aggregation of people; as, an author's public. "Public Network" means a network that is regulated as a common carrier. Public opinion is formed after the collective discussion for decision making. It is expressed through ballots, letter and etc. Through the use of personal persuasion mass media influence the public according to their opinions and behavior because it is more effective.
Social movements are a type of group action. They are large informal groupings of individuals and/or organizations focused on specific political or social issues, in other words, on carrying out, resisting or undoing a social change.
Expressive movement is a form of dissent against the existing power structures. It is not directed to bring about change in power relations. Resistance aims to change existing social values and institutions which members consider decadent. Protest aim to oppose social policies or programs. They are expression of dissent and a need for change. Reform is directed at changing certain aspects of the social class structure or a segment of the power relations in a social system. Rebellion and Revolutionary aim to change the whole social order and replace the leadership.

Rizal Life from America to London
Rizal had some good and bad impressions of the United States. He has 5 good impressions about the United States here are those. First is that the material progress of the country as shown in the great cities, huge farms, flourishing industries and busy factories. Second is the drive and energy of the American people, third is the natural beauty of the land, the fourth one is the high standard of living and the last is the opportunities for better life offered to poor immigrants. And Rizal had only one bad impressions of the United States it’s the lack of racial equality. There existed racial prejudice which was inconsistent with the principles of democracy and freedom of which the Americans talk so much but do not practice.
Rizal chose London to be his second home because of three reasons this are the following. To improve his knowledge of the English language, to study and annotate the Morgas’s Sucesos De Las Islas, a rare copy of which he heard to be available in the British Museum and is that the London was a safe place for him to carry on his fight against Spanish tyranny.
Rizal become attracted to Gertrude Beckett because she had a brown hair, blue eye and rosy cheeks. She always have a sunny smile for rizal and she chattering gaily like a humming bird.
Dr. Rost recommended Rizal to the authorities of the British Museum. Because Dr. Rost was impressed by Rizal’s learning and character. He called Rizal “a pearl of a man”. That’s why Rizal had an access to the historical materials and documents of the British Museum.
Rizal annotate Morga’s Sucesos De Las Islas Filipinas because it would depend the Pilipino interests from the scurrilous attacks of their Spanish detractors. The preparation he undertake for this is that he always do a certain studies day and night. He spent that in the reading room of the British Museum poring over the pages of the Morga Sucesos and the other old histories of the Philippines.
The content of Rizal’s new edition of Morga’s Sucesos is to work peacefully for political and social reforms to portray the deplorable conditions of the Philippines so that the spain may remedy them. To oppose the evil forces of reaction and medievalism to advocate liberal ideas and progress and to champion the legitimate aspirations of the Pilipino people of life, democracy and happiness.

Rizal’s Life from America to London
Rizal had good and bad impression of the United States. The good impressions were the material progress of the country as shown in the great cities, huge farms, flourishing industries and busy factories, the drive and energy of the American people, the natural beauty of the land, the high standard of living and the opportunities for better life offered to poor immigrants. One bad impression Rizal had of America, was the lack of racial equality. There existed racial prejudice which was inconsistent with the principles of democracy and freedom of which the Americans talk so much but do not practice.
Rizal choose London to be his second home during his second journey to Europe to improve his knowledge of the English language, to study and annotate Morga’s Sucesos de Las Islas Filipinas, a rare copy of which he heard to be available in the British
Museum, and because London was a safe place for him to carry on his fight against Spanish tyranny.
When he was in London he attracted to Gertrude Beckett.She had a sunny smile for Rizal, chattering gaily like humming bird. During the family picnics, she was particularly very happy because Rizal was with them and she gave him all her attention. And in rainy days when Rizal stayed at home, she helped him by mixing his colors for painting or assisted in preparing the day for sculpturing.
Rizal was able to have access to the historical materials and documents at the British Museum through Dr. Reinhold Rost, the librarian of the ministry of Foreign Affairs and an authority on Malayan languages and customs. Dr. Rost was impressed by Rizal’s learning and character, and he gladly recommended him to the authorities of the British Museum. He called Rizal “a pearl of a man” ( una perla de hombre).
He annotate Morga’s Sucesos de Las Islas Filipinas because it was the best of the many histories of the Philippines written by the early Spanish writers, being accurate in the narration of events, unbiased in judgment and unmarred by childish fantasies. He spent many days in the reading room of the British Museum poring over the pages of this book and laboriously reading the old histories of the Philippines, such as those written by Fr. Chirino, Fr. Colin, Fr. Argensola, Fr. Plasencia, etc. Of all written histories published during the early years of Spanish regime that of Dr. Morga was in his considered opinion, the best.
From Rizal’s new edition of Sucesos, Ferdinand Blumentritt gave insights about it. He said that Rizal commits the error of many historians in appraising the events of the past in the light of present standards and Rizal’s attacks on the church were unfair and unjustified because the abuses of the friars should not be construed to mean that Catholicism is bad.
In the new edition of Morga’s Sucesos, Rizal proved that the Filipinos were already civilized before the advent of Spain. Rizal thus blasted the historical heresies of the Spanish writers who claimed that the early Filipinos were savages and were low of mentality.
Early in September 1888, he visited Paris for a week, in order to search for more historical materials I the Bibliotheque Nationale. On December 11, 1888, he went to Spain, visiting Madrid and Barcelona. He contacted his compatriots and surveyed the political situation with regards to the agitation for Philippine reforms.
Asociacion La Solidaridad was established in Barcelona by the Filipino expatriates to establish a patriotic society which would cooperate in the crusade for reforms. The officers are Galicano Apacible, president; Graciano Lopez Jaena, vice- president; Manuel Santa Maria, secretary; Mariano Ponce, treasurer; and Jose Ma. Panganiban, accountant.
Rizal first article which appeared in La Solidaridad was entitled Los Agricultores Filipinos (The Filipino Farmers). It was published on March 25, 1889, six days after he left London for Paris. In this initial article, he depicted the deplorable conditions in the Philippines which cause the backwardness of the country. He also wrote a pamphlet entitled La Vision del Fray Rodriguez (The Vision of Fray Rodriguez) which was published in Barcelona under his nom-de-plume Dimas Alang. In London, Rizal wrote the famous “Letter to the Young Women of Malolos” (February 22, 1889) in tagalong. He penned it, upon the request of M. H. Del Pilar to praise the young ladies of Malolos for their courage to establish a school where they could learn Spanish, despite the opposition of Fr. Felipe Garcia, Spanish parish priest of Malolos. He contributed two articles for the Journal Trubner’s Record upon the request of Dr. Rost, editor of the journal. These are ‘Specimens of Tagal Folklore” which was published in the journal in May, 1889 and “Two Eastern Faces’ which was published in June, 1889. The first article consisted of Filipino proverbs and puzzles.
RIZAL’S LIFE FROM AMERICA TO LONDON (D. Rivera)
Rizal had good and bad impressions of the United States. The good impressions were (1) the material progress of the country as shown in the great cities, huge farms, flourishing industries, and busy factories; (2) the drive and energy of the American people; (3) the natural beauty of the land; (4) the high standard of living; and (5) the opportunities for better life offered to poor immigrants.
One bad impression Rizal had of America was the lack of racial equality. There existed racial prejudice which was inconsistent with the principles of democracy and freedom of which the Americans talk so much but do not practice.
Rizal choose London to be his second home during his second journey in Europe for three reasons: (1) to improve his knowledge of the English language, (2) to study and annotate Morga’s Sucesos de las Islas Filipinas, a rare copy of which he heard to be available in the British Museum, and (3) London was a safe place for him to carry on his fight against Spanish tyranny.
Rizal, being a man of normal emotions, become attracted to Gertrude Beckett because he found to her a exhilating joy of company. Their friendship drifted towards romance. Rizal affectionately called her “ Gettie”, in reciprocation, she fondly called him “Pettie”. As their flirtation was fast approaching the point of no return, Rizal suddenly realized that he could not marry Gettie for he had a mission to fulfill in life.
He was able to have access to the historical materials and documents of the British museum because he came to know Dr. Reinhold Rost, the librarian of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and an authority on Malayan languages and customs. Dr. Rost was impressed by Rizal’s learning and character, and he gladly recommended him to the authorities of the British Museum. He called Rizal “ a pearl of a man” (una perla de hombre).
The greatest achievement of Rizal in London was the annotating of Morga’s book, Sucesos de las Islas Filipinas ( Historical Events of the Philippine Islands) which was published in Mexico,1609 because it was the best of the many histories of the Philippines written by the early Spanish writers, being accurate in the narration of events, unbiased in judgment, and unmarred by childish fantasies. He spent many days in the reading room of the British Museum poring over the pages of this book and laboriously reading the old histories of the Philippines, such as those written by Fr. Chirino, Fr. Colin, Fr.Argensola, Fr. Plasencia, etc. He frequently visited Dr. Regidor and discussion with him problems pertaining to Philippine affairs.
Ferdinand Blumentritt frankly censured Rizal for his new edition of Sucesos for two things which revealed Rizal’s errors namely (1) Rizal commits the error of many historians appraising the events of the past standards and (2) Rizal’s attacks on the church were unfair and unjustified because the abuses of the friars should not be construed to mean that Catholicism is bad.
Rizal visit Paris and Madrid for a while he was in London in order to search for more historical materials in the Bibliotheque Nationale.
Asociacion La Solidaridad established by the Filipino Spatriats to cooperate in the crusade for reforms with the following officers: Galicano Apacible, president; Graciano Lopez Jaena, vice president; Manuel Santa Maria, secretary; Mariano Ponce, treasurer; and Jose Ma. Panganiban, accountant.
The other literary works written by Rizal while he was in London are La Vision del Fray Rodriguez ( The vision of Fray Rodriguez) which was published in Barcelona under his nom- de plume Dimas Alang demonstrated two things: (1) his profound knowledge of religion and (2) his biting satire. The second one is “Letter to the Young Women of Malolos” ( February 22, 1889) in Tagalog to praise the young ladies of Malolos for their courage to establish a school where they could learn Spanish. “ “Specimens of Tagal Folklore” and “ Two Eastern Fables” are the two articles that Rizal contributed to Dr. Rost, editor of Trubner’s Record.
