Fw: An apology from (a very red-faced) Matt Brading

One day .... After weeks of planning the Webmaster Toolkit for Photographers project; after all the time and effort assembling the package, building the website, testing everything and then finally sending out the emails ... the payment processor, PayDotCom, had a technical glitch over the weekend and it all ground to a halt. I guess if this is the biggest disappointment I ever experience then no doubt I'm getting off light, but I can tell you it's pretty frustrating and embarrassing right now. So first of all, my apologies to the people who tried to get a hold of the package over the ...
Apology, planning, reflection
2008-06-08 04:29:00 It's been a while that I have not posted in this blog. Shall I need to apologize to my readers? Perhaps 'Yes'. Blogging is a hobby. I ought not to have any responsibility at all whether I post or not. I am not compelled to write. No one is forcing me. Should I apologize? This time I say 'No'. Well, I would be ungrateful if I say no because I have to be accountable not just to myself but also to you. I should write, that's for myself. And I will continue to write, that's for you. Because you inspire me to write especially with your intelligible, sincere, honest, and sometimes harsh comments.The last time I posted was 22 May, and its 8 June. That's 2 weeks. Two weeks of thinking and reflecting what I ought to do in 2008-2009. I planned my life carefully, though plans may get failed. But as long as there is a plan, I can feel myself secured. Planning makes life easier. I set goals--writing goals. I promised myself to write 2 pages per day five days a week, from Monday to Friday...

I'm spent...and an apology
2008-05-20 00:00:00 I just spent the last few hours polishing up my site for maximum awesomeness. It doesn’t look much different, you say, but under the hood is a completely different beast. As I mentioned in a previous post, I spent last night converting the backend of this site to byteflow, which is built on django (python based) and running on top of lighttpd. Previously (read; years ago) I had built a blogging system based on a LAMP stack, specifically Apache 2.0, MySQL and PHP. Slowly, over time I added to and ‘improved’ the software. Time and time again it felt like an exercise in futility. It seemed to be a never ending battle to keep up with the times and stay exposed. Since I started working for ag interactive I’ve fallen in love with Python. Quickly thereafter I started searching for a good, ”developing” blog package written in python. I longed for something I could extend and something that is portable. I long no longer…(?) The django pro...

Show 34 apology
2008-05-16 04:22:00 What a frustrating night! Show 34 started off well. I told my little Las Vegas story and I thought things were going well. I took a musical "commercial" break, and then my connection was gone. Then, computer problems. I took the next 20 minutes to try to figure things out, but was unsuccessful.I remember back to those first shows last summer when I literally had a technical glitch for every show. I didn't know what was going on. It seemed like every show something would go wrong. Then, I think I fixed the problem, and I had a good run for a while - that is, until tonight.So, I apologize for the show tonight. Thanks to all those who stuck with me as I was trying to fix the problem. What's great about all of you is that when I was trying to fix things, the chat room seemed to come alive with activity - I really appreciate that. I'm going to work on things over the next few days, and I'm optimistic that next week's show will be a lot better.

5 Steps to an Effective Apology
2008-05-03 14:35:00 1. Make it genuine - Anyone can spot a false apology and it will do more harm than good. A genuine apology is aimed solely at taking responsibility and overcoming a disturbance. There are no hidden obligations or expectations attached.2.Don?t justify your actions - If you are busy explaining why you did what you did, it will start to sound like you aren?t apologizing at all, that you aren?t ready to take responsibility. A brief explanation may help understanding, while a justification may just fuel the disturbance.3.Make a commitment to change - If you can?t confirm that you mean to improve, then you aren?t committed to an apology. If you aren?t committed to changing your habit of getting home late, don?t say ?Sorry I am home late?. This will be a hollow and ineffective apology. You are better off thanking the other person, ?Thanks for putting up with me coming home so late. I appreciate it? and taking it from there.4.Phrased you apology carefully - Make sure the other person knows ...

China demands CNN apology for goons comment | Reuters
2008-04-15 21:46:00 China on Tuesday demanded that television news channel CNN apologize after one of its commentators said the Chinese were "goons" and that their products were "junk". Jack Cafferty made the comments earlier this month on CNN's political program, The Situation Room. "We are shocked at and strongly condemn the evil attack by the CNN anchor on the Chinese people," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu told a regular news conference. "Cafferty used the microphone in his hand to slander China and the Chinese people, and seriously violated reporting ethics." Cafferty said the United States imported Chinese-made "junk with the lead paint on them and the poisoned pet food", adding: "They're basically the same bunch of goons and thugs they've been for the last 50 years," according to a copy of his comments carried on YouTube. I've had a lot of disagreements with Cafferty about a lot of issues, but it's hard to argue with the guy on this issue. China is doing everything it can to ...

Obama's Remarks are Changing Minds, Does his Apology cut it?
2008-04-12 22:23:00 Too bad Obama feels the need to pander to the extreme left in San Fran by throwing moderate Democrats or RURAL DEMOCRATS under the bus. I have been soaking up some of Obama's comments over the past few weeks and I am disappointed. I have removed his banner for now; I am now soaking up his apology for slamming the rural citizen. MUNCIE, Indiana (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, attacked by his rivals as an elitist for describing small-town voters as people who "cling to guns or religion," said on Saturday he erred in how he expressed the concerns of those voters. UPDATE SUN: I have a new nick-name on Bluegrassroots, "/People Caught Up In Self-Interest" This is what happens in politics, and I am guilty of it as well, when you don't agree, people want to get nasty.

2008-04-03 02:53:00 I am not sure where to start with this, because it is decidedly not funny, but every time I start writing about it, I get the giggles. You know that funny bone that is not in your elbow but is in your knee? The one that really kills when you bump it? Yeah, well my knee funny bone keeps jerking and kicking a whoopee cushion, a whoopee cushion that I wrote sad teenage poetry all over.So, let's start again. Hello, my name is Schmutzie, and I am not being funny. In fact, I am being very sad, especially over the last few months. I do not mean sad-all-the-time sad.
