A study published in in the journal Negotiation and Conflict Management Research say there are 6 steps to a sincere apology. If someone doesn’t want to accept your apology. Check and see if you have done these steps:

1. Expressing regret
2. Explaining what went wrong
3. Acknowledging responsibility
4. Declaring repentance
5. Offering to repair
6. Asking forgiveness

If you don’t think you have it in you to go through all six steps, be sure you don’t leave out acknowledging responsibility and committing to fix the wrongdoing. Saying, “I totally messed up, but let me make it right,” certainly puts you on the right track.

Some lyrics sound so strange when they are spoken instead of sung. Jennifer Lopez has fun with “Baby Got Back”.

Today, April 12th, is National Equal Pay Day. This day changes every year because it’s determined by analyzing how far into the year women have to work to earn what men did the previous year. This year, according to the Department of Labor, that day is today.

Think about that for a second. In order to earn what men made the year before, women have to work an additional three and a half months into the new year. The National Equal Pay Day encourages supporters to wear red on Equal Pay to show they are “in the red” with their pay and to use the hashtag #EqualPayDay when posting to social media.

Bryan Adams is pulling out of a show on April 14th in a state that recently passed anti-LGBT legislation, Mississippi. In a statement posted on Facebook, Adams writes, ” Mississippi has passed anti-LGBT ‘Religious Liberty’ bill 1523. I find it incomprehensible that LGBT citizens are being discriminated against in the state of Mississippi. I cannot in good conscience perform in a State where certain people are being denied their civil rights due to their sexual orientation. Therefore i’m cancelling my 14 April show at the Mississippi Coast Coliseum. Using my voice I stand in solidarity with all my LGBT friends to repeal this extremely discriminatory bill. Hopefully Mississippi will right itself and I can come back and perform for all of my many fans. I look forward to that day. – Bryan Adams ‪#‎stop1523‬“

Katy Perry & Dolly Parton did some booty shaking during their ACM performance the other night while singing Dolly’s hit “9 to 5”. They also sang “Coat of Many Colors” and “Jolene”. Katy Perry presented Dolly with the Tex Ritter Award for her NBC biopic, Dolly Parton’s Coat Of Many Colors.

More great major league baseball concessions craziness. This season the Cleveland Indians well offer a hot dog with 3 toppings, bacon, mac and cheese and Froot Loops. Early reviews have been possitive. I’m not sure if I’d try it. I like everything on it, just SEPARATELY! All of it together might make me sick.

Don’t fall asleep on the subway if you visit NYC. Chances are, a rat may crawl on you. That’s what happened and a guy filmed it instead of alerting the man.  It  makes you love being in the south, doesn’t it?  We’d not only TELL you that you have a rat on you, someone will be glad to kill it for you, too.
