The recent Arctic chill has given Fox News an excuse to give "skeptics" a platform to deny climate change and bash climate science. But the network has been remiss to discuss the topic during periods of record heat.
During their coverage of cold weather from January 2 to January 8, Fox News brought up climate change nine times, casting doubt on it every single time. They also devoted a significant amount of coverage to a ship getting stuck in Antarctic ice to mock climate change during this period. But this strongly contrasts Fox News' coverage of extreme heat events, in which the network is typically silent on the topic of global warming. A previous Media Matters analysis found that, in a parallel week-long time period in 2011, Fox News did not mention climate change once while reporting on an unusually intense heat wave. And throughout the entire month of July 2012, which was the hottest month on record for the United States, the network discussed climate change in the heat wave's context once -- in order to deny it.
Meanwhile, MSNBC primarily featured the anti-scientific "skeptic" claims to dismiss them in its five segments on the topic. CNN meteorologist Chad Meyers rebutted the "skeptic" claims in one segment, but in CNN's only other segment on the topic, the network portrayed the science of global warming as up for a "debate" by non-scientists. As MSNBC's Al Sharpton put it, "It's times like these that you want a scientist around to explain things" -- he brought on Bill Nye "The Science Guy" to make the case:
As the nation has recently experienced unusually cold winter weather, climate "skeptics" have emerged from within conservative media, casting doubt on the scientific consensus about manmade global warming -- a yearly phenomenon dubbed by MSNBC's Chris Hayes as "snow-trolling."
Stephen Colbert accurately summarized how conservatives often perform "simple observational research" to deny climate change: "Whatever just happened is the only thing that is happening." It appears many doubters need a lesson in the difference between weather and climate: a single weather event does not negate a long-term climate trend (although climatologists are actually getting better at identifying which extreme weather events that climate change has worsened). On average, the planet has been warming at a rate of 0.17°C, or 0.3°F*, per decade since 1971. The most recent decade was the planet's warmest on record -- even including a few cold winters.
To hear conservatives tell it, Santa Claus is most definitely white, and his home isn't melting. At least that's what Fox News, with its recent barrage of attacks on an ad in which Santa warns about the impact of climate change on his Arctic home, would lead you to believe.
In December, the environmental group Greenpeace released an ad featuring the butler from Downton Abbey as a distraught Santa, who warns that as climate change drives continued Arctic ice melt, he may have to cancel Christmas. The ad calls for protecting the Arctic from offshore oil drilling, which, in a grim irony, is only possible in the region because of the ice melt.
The cheeky video was a "new low" achieved by "any-means-necessary" tactics, according to Fox News. It was also a chance to deny climate change. Rush Limbaugh declared "The ice is not melting at the North Pole," and a Fox News guest said "Santa's home is going to be fine ... for a long, long time to come." Fox News co-host Eric Bolling claimed contrary to any temperature record that "the globe is getting colder":
But Santa is right: the North Pole is melting. Arctic ice registered a record low in 2012 in line with a long-term melting trend. The sea ice extent in 2013 was not as low as 2012's (as was expected), but it was still among the lowest extents in the 35-year record, and does not represent a "recovery":
From the September 30 edition of Fox News' The Five:

In the weeks leading up to the release of the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change's (IPCC) fifth assessment report summarizing climate science on Monday, conservative media have spread a variety of myths about the process, credibility and findings of the group. Contrary to misinformation, the report reflects that scientists are more convinced than ever that manmade climate change is real and dangerous.
On August 12, a federal court judge ruled that the New York Police Department (NYPD) was improperly performing the common police tactic of "stop and frisk" by unconstitutionally targeting persons of color without reasonable suspicion. The New York City Council agreed, and passed legislation over a mayor's veto on August 23 to safeguard against future unconstitutional applications of this long-standing enforcement tactic. Right-wing media responded by ignoring the constitutional violations and instead defended the NYPD's actions for "establishing a sense of order."
If there's any doubt how clueless conservative media figures are when it comes to transgender issues, the recent freak out over California's new student non-discrimination law should put it to rest.
For the past several weeks, conservative media outlets have been stoking fears about a new California law that will allow transgender students to have access to school facilities and sports teams that match their gender identity. The law has drawn criticism from outlets like Fox News, which warns that the law will allow boys to sneak into girls' bathrooms and engage in inappropriate behavior.
Case in point: Media Research Center Content Specialist Dan Joseph, who on August 15 released a video in which he poses as a transgender female and asks a woman if she would be comfortable with him using the same restroom as her:
JOSEPH: Excuse me. Are you going into the locker room?
WOMAN: Yes.
JOSEPH: My name is Dan. I'm a transgender. So that means I have the man parts but inside I feel more like a woman. I was just wondering, is it okay if I go in there with you in there and change and shower and stuff? Just because I don't really feel, like, comfortable in the men's area. It's just weird. Is that okay with you?
Other than attempting to feminize his voice, Joseph doesn't present himself in any way as a female in the clip. He is wearing men's clothing, has a full goatee, and goes by his male name, "Dan."
His impersonation is a perfect example of everything that's wrong with how conservative media imagine transgender people.
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld continued the network's dishonest attempts to portray a California bill to grant transgender students equal access to school facilities and activities as a "bathroom bill," dismissing the legislation as a bill for "gender-confused students."
Filling in for host Bill O'Reilly on the August 9 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, Gutfeld ignored the substance of the legislation, which would allow transgender students to use facilities and play on sports teams that correspond to their gender identities. Instead, Gutfeld framed the legislation - which has passed both houses of the legislature and awaits Gov. Jerry Brown's signature - as a "bathroom bill." To back up the right-wing myth that the legislation would lead to inappropriate bathroom behavior, Gutfeld joked that he has long claimed to be gender-confused so he could "sneak into the girls' bathroom":
GUTFELD: As a devious teen growing up, I would tell girls that I'm a girl trapped in a boy's body, just so I could sneak into the girls' bathroom. In fact, I do that now at Fox News. ... Gretchen Carlson threw me out of the bathroom just last week.
Gutfeld's insensitivity toward transgender students is typical of Fox's coverage of transgender issues.The network routinely mocks, demeans, and dismisses transgender individuals, who face disproportionate rates of bullying and harassment. Instead of addressing such problems, however, Fox prefers to peddle baseless myths about bathroom creeps.
From the August 9 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
Loading the player reg...
On last night's episode of The Five, host Eric Bolling claimed Democrats strategically create racial division as a political strategy. Asked by fellow host Bob Beckel whether he believes that "we sit around in the Democratic Party and want to have racial division," he replied, "I do, yes."
It was an absurd charge coming from Bolling, whose racial invective has included referring to the President of Gabon's visit to the White House as "a hoodlum in the hizzouse" and suggesting that President Obama was "chugging 40s" during a state visit to Ireland.
Bolling wasn't the only one on Fox claiming that racism is largely being drummed up by liberals. Co-host Greg Gutfeld chimed in claiming that "racial warfare right now is the crack cocaine of CNN, MSNBC, and most college campuses."
Later in the evening Bill O'Reilly told his audience that civil rights leaders want "to divide the country along racial lines because that's good for business."
Oh the irony.
There are few in American politics who have done more to strategically divide this country along racial lines for political and financial gain than Fox News chief Roger Ailes.

T^hanks for some interesting thoughts. I found Eugenia Dunn and James Dunn in the 1880 census, but never even thought she may have been the one who married Samuel Burton at a later date. Even more interesting is the thought that Berta may be the child of James and Eugenia, not Samuel Burton and Eugenia. If that is the case, it would explain why Berta is not listed as one of samuel Burton's children.
I also found Samuel Burton on the 1880 census and wondered what he was doing in Denton, TX when he should have been with Eugenia Dunn in Whitt, TX. It is logical he may not have married till some date after 1880.
You have certainly up some new avenues to explore and I appreciate your help very much.

Maybach Music Group rapper Wale may need to start preparing an acceptance speech after losing his words following last night's news of his Grammy Awards nomination.
Following the announcement of his "Lotus Flower Bomb" getting a nod for "Best Rap Song," Wale tried to put words together.
"Hol up… Wtf?!!!???? This is unreal," he tweeted Wednesday (December 5) night.
"Speechless." (Wale's Twitter)
A day later, the Washington, D.C.-bred emcee issued a statement on his accomplishment.

1/2 Photos of Fish Steak With Tomato Chili Butter
Prep Time:
Cook Time:
1 hr 15 mins
15 mins
I just made this for 2 as part of a 3 course meal I did for my hubby and I the other night. The butter is enough for 3 people but it is hard to roll into shape if I make with any less, the butter will keep in the fridge, if you wanted to make this for 4, just up the ingredients slightly. I just served mine over some wilted spinach as we had a starter and a dessert, so if making as a main meal without the other courses, I would recommend serving some wild rice or potato or even crusty bread to give some more sustenance to the meal. Prep time includes marinating time, but not the time to soften butter and reset.

Frightening seniors about Medicare changes is often referred to as Medi-scare.

Justice may have been served Wednesday when Joseph Bozicevich was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole for the September 2008 shooting deaths of Staff Sgt. Darris Dawson and Sgt. Wesley Durbin in Iraq. But even though the sentencing decision likely was what the families of the deceased had been hoping for, there clearly are no winners in this situation.
In the context of a state budget, even a depressed and depleted one like Georgia's, $30-$40 million isn't really all that much. In contexts that involve real people and real money (as opposed to the Monopoly money politicians sometimes act as though they're tossing around), it's huge.
In the 18th century, Great Britain, with trade domination, was the world's powerhouse. Starting in the 19th century, the United States surpassed Great Britain as the industrial leader, and we never looked back. America was every country's desired trading partner.
Next week, the Georgia State Legislature will convene into special session to redraw House, Senate and Congressional districts to conform to the 2010 U.S. Census. The special session is expected to last two to three weeks.
If "compromise" means an agreement that doesn't satisfy anybody, then last week's Washington budget deal should be part of the dictionary definition.
I usually try to run the big decisions by you before I take action, but I know you have been distracted over the past weeks watching our selfless public servants in Washington put our interests and those of our nation above petty, partisan political sniping in the debt ceiling debate and marveling at how our crackerjack president, Mr. Swivelhead, makes Jimmy Carter's woebegone administration look like a cross between the Garden of Eden (pre-apple tasting) and Brigadoon.
Severe storms, extreme heat, a crippling freeze, deadly tornadoes, terrible wildfires - Mother Nature has managed to throw almost everything in the book at us within six short months. With just half a year under our belt, the state of Georgia and metro Atlanta already have experienced their share of severe weather, and we obviously don't know what's in store for the second half of 2011.
Editor's note: this op-ed column is a response to a guest editorial from the Athens Banner-Herald that ran July 30.
The Georgia General Assembly will reconvene less than two weeks from now in a special session to take on the constitutionally mandated legislative task of redistricting. Like the U.S. Census, and as a result of it, this process occurs every 10 years when states redraw their congressional and legislative maps to reflect population and other demographic changes.
This column is in response to Future of Freedom Foundation senior fellow Sheldon Richman's column, "It is time to bring the troops home," which was published in July.
Dear editor: Richmond Hill has lost a treasured storyteller, historian and first-class lady in Shirley Hiers. Through her writing, she could draw out the most remarkable details of any topic and generate an interest in everything from 1950s basketball players to long-forgotten men and women who still had stories to tell.
Richmond Hill is in mourning.
Editor's note: U.S. Rep. Buddy Carter, R-Georgia, and other area elected officials will contribute periodic columns during the upcoming legislative sessions. This is a report about orientation that he went through last week.
I was on St. Simons Island last week, scarfing down massive amounts of corn-fried shrimp at the exquisite little Georgia Sea Grill, when someone came to the table to inquire if Junior E. Lee had finished his analysis of the recent election. That really puffed up Junior when I told him.
One afternoon, I had a hankering, a primal-like craving, for a supper of pinto beans and cornbread with a tall glass of cold, rich buttermilk thrown in for good measure and extra filling.
Typically, I use this weekly column to address parenting issues, reflect on challenges faced by (fairly) new moms and provide what I hope are amusing anecdotes that stem from daily life encounters with a toddler. This Sunday, though, I'm going to explore a topic that's more indirectly related to - but still very much a part of - child-rearing.
Residents of Bryan County have the opportunity Monday to show our support for a continued strong presence of the Marne Division in Bryan and surrounding counties.
This is a story I shared with some of you a couple of years ago, but given the well-deserved tributes this week to our veterans, it seems an appropriate time to share it with all of you. It is about a terrorist; an honest-to-God terrorist. Not only does he not deny the appellation, he's proud of it.
At the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have one of the most noble and inspiring missions in government. I accepted this job and joined this mission to better serve you - our veterans - and improve the delivery of the care and benefits you have earned. It is our privilege to serve you, and I have made clear that as we move forward as a department, we will judge the success of all our efforts against a single metric - the outcomes we provide for veterans.
Over the years, I've crossed paths with many who were extremely successful as well as some who were such miserable failures that, as Mama liked to say, they "ain't worth the breath they draw."
I recently saw a meme posted to a social-media site that said something along the lines of "Having children: Your way of showing the world you no longer intend to be on time - ever."
Editor, "Greater Good" is a point or ideology that has been defined, perceived and twisted. So what does this mean? I wonder if it's even fair to apply this concept because, at the end of the day, the definition is construed. Man is still making that determination.
I called Junior E. Lee and asked when he would have some post-election analysis to share with you. Junior, as you know, is general manager of the Yarbrough Worldwide Media and Pest Control Company, in Greater Garfield, Georgia, home of Round-or-Square Polls, whose motto is "You supply the dough and we will cook the results."
In 1976 in the rainforest, a virus was transmitted to people from wild animals, and it spread through the population via human-to-human contact.
This month, more than 500 local volunteers have made a positive difference for our local waterways by participating in the Statewide Rivers Alive waterway cleanups in Georgia. Over 50 locations in Liberty County have been cleaned up so far by these amazing helpers, who ranged in ages from 2 (yes, they had a little help from their parents) to 80. Several more groups have cleanups scheduled in the next three weeks. Rivers Alive is a statewide effort to preserve and protect our waterways in Georgia. Rivers Alive events also are part of the international efforts of The Ocean Conservancy.
That apple tree. Oh my goodness. Something told me it wouldn't turn out well.
I dislike talking on the phone. For a number of reasons, I've never really been fond of telephone calls or conversations.

Sen. Chuck Schumer said he doesnŌĆÖt think his fellow New York Democrat Rep. Anthony Weiner had anything to do with the picture of a manŌĆÖs erect penis underneath gray boxer-briefs sent from WeinerŌĆÖs official Twitter account Friday night.
ŌĆ£I don't know the details,ŌĆØ Schumer said, according to the New York Daily News. ŌĆ£But I know him to be a person of integrity and I am virtually certain he had nothing to do with this.ŌĆØ
SchumerŌĆÖs office did not, however, respond to The Daily CallerŌĆÖs request as to whether heŌĆÖd like an official investigation to learn all those details he doesnŌĆÖt know.
The imbroglio heated up after Weiner and his spokesman, Dave Arnold, began publicly claiming the CongressmanŌĆÖs official verified Twitter account and Facebook accounts were ŌĆ£hacked,ŌĆØ which led to the lewd photo getting sent. Arnold has since told TheDC that Weiner has hired a lawyer to advise him on possible "civil or criminal actions." Arnold has not answered TheDCŌĆÖs requests into whether Weiner will be seeking an official investigation from law enforcement authorities as to who ŌĆ£hackedŌĆØ his social media accounts and how they did it.
TheDC has also asked Arnold at least four times if the man pictured was Weiner. He has not answered.

I won one of these in a contest, and I have to say that I was very impressed with the build quality. It doesn't feel cheap at all. It charges via micro usb (like the Storm, Curve 8900, 9630 tour, etc) and includes a cigarette lighter to usb adapter. Audio quality is clear, though I have not tested the FM gateway function. If you're in the market for a bluetooth speaker phone, this is a good choice.

Why wait or the official release of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies trailer later today when you can watch the leaked version now? Better check it out quick though, those hobbit lawyers will mercilessly crush this leak under their knobby, hairy toes. (more…)
The last in Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies is scheduled to hit theaters screens later this year on December 17th. There hasn't been a lot of production stills, clips, or even a teaser trailer yet, but Warner Brothers has recently released the official synopsis for the movie. (more…)
Comedy Central's Stephen Colbert may be satirizing right-wing pundits on his popular talk show, but his nerdity is by no means fictional–particularly where the works of J.R.R. Tolkien are concerned. Indeed, LOTR/Hobbit director Peter Jackson even declared the writer-comedian the biggest "Tolkien Geek" he'd ever met.
THR and Playboy had previously indicated that Colbert might make an appearance in The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug….Today, we have visual confirmation from a sharp-eyed Redditor in GIF and screencap form (after the jump). (more…)
Evangeline Lilly plays a character never created by J.R.R. Tolkien in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. Considering that the elf warrior Tauriel has created by Peter Jackson and his collaborators from scratch, it would make sense that the actress asked to play her would have some kind of input into making her character. As it turned out, Lilly had only one caveat for playing Tauriel, and it was a promise that eventually had to be broke when the Hobbit trilogy went into reshoots last year. So what was the promise, and how was it broke? (more…)
The theater goers attending the AMC Lincoln Square midnight screening of Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug in NYC got a surprise visit from Gandalf himself, Ian Mckellan. Watch the crowd go wild as Ian thanks everyone and says hello. (more…)
Nerd Bastard's Matthew Jackson wrote an on-the-money review of The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug. You can read it HERE. I mirror many of Matt's thoughts. DOS was no doubt an upscale from the first Hobbit film.The highest points being (and there are quite a few) are the action sequences; the barrel escape, the spiders, Necromancer and Smaug (who looked and sounded astonishing). There really isn't a boring moment, and even if there was, you'd be too distracted by the visual eye candy to notice (FX are near perfect). The common complaint, though, is that it's a tad overloaded and really drawn out (some scenes were way longer than they needed to by). Trying to spread out content from a 300 page book into a trilogy of 3 hour movies was certainly felt this time around. On the other hand, Tolkien wrote an epic novel. Can't expect anything less than an epic series of movies, right? However over extended it might be, it offers quantity just as much as quality which isn't very present in most films today. Personally I think the film is fantasy escapism at it's finest. Experiences like this are why we go to the movies. That's my two cents anyway. How about yours?
We wanna know what you think. You can use the comments below to write your mini-review of the film. Have at thee!
We'll never really get over the stigma that comes with Peter Jackson's Hobbit trilogy, even if we want to. This is the guy who tied the record for Oscars in a single night with The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, so he's obviously got a very high bar to clear. This is the guy who made Middle-earth real in our cinematic minds. This is the guy who managed to film an unfilmable story. So, how are we supposed to expect him to live up to that? There are a number of answers for this, ranging from optimistic to downright hostile, but mine is simple: we're not. Where The Lord of the Rings was a fantasy adventure wrapped in a world-in-the-balance epic, The Hobbit is adventure in its purest form. Jackson's embracing that, and though he's trying too hard to give his latest cinematic saga weight, we can still glean a lot of fun from the Hobbit franchise even without the connections to its big brother, and the latest installment, The Desolation of Smaug, definitely proves that.
It's the end of the year, and you know what that means: lots and lots of Best and Worst lists! True, but it also means that awards season is just around the corner. Today, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences, AKA: the people who give out the Oscars, announced their short list of 10 potential nominees for the Best Visual Effects category, and you'll notice a definite nerdy trend amongst the ten films that will be vying for that golden trophy early next year. (more…)
With the anticipated release of the second Hobbit movie The Desolation of Smaug hitting next week, Peter Jackson presents his 13 video production diary.
Bored actors playing Ping Pong, Stephen Fry behaving like Stephen Fry, sound engineers caring less about deadline and Peter Jackson's astonishing refusal to wear socks… watch the magic of movie making unfold!
Are you peeing in your chair with anticipation at the coming of the second Hobbit flick? Is nine days a little too long for you to wait to indulge your need for The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug? Well folks, have we got a treat for you then! Scroll your computer-browser-window-thingy down just a wee bit and prepare yourselves for a bombardment of clips from Peter Jackson's upcoming flick. And make sure to get a towel for your seat. (more…)

Best Western International's descriptor program allowed the company to strengthen its appeal to business travelers and drive its growth across the globe, said Best Western President and CEO David Kong. "What's really encouraging is that the Best Western Plus and Premier descriptors are enabling us to break into markets that were difficult for us in the past. Just a couple of months ago we opened a Best Western Premier in New York City, near Herald Square, and that's been a wonderful success. We just opened the Best Western Premier in Haiti, which also got a lot of interest," Kong said.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Toronto's Metric has been inching -- or should that be centimetring? -- its way to arena status
Metric guitarist James Shaw is a little taken aback at the constant questioning of the trendy Canadian band's decision to launch its first cross-country arena tour this month.
Since he and singer Emily Haines founded the Toronto-based band in 1998, Metric has made the rounds of small clubs and concert halls, patiently building a faithful fan following and a cult profile that spiked with the 2009 release of Fantasies, which won the alternative album of the year at the 2010 Juno Awards, while Metric was chosen group of the year.
With the release of its fifth album, Synthetica, in June, the indie-rock darlings have continued their skyward trajectory with personal bests. Synthetica broke into the Billboard 200 at No. 12 (No. 2 in Canada) while touring the United States with stops at famous venues like Radio City Music Hall and choice festivals like Lollapalooza. That the synth popsters also played with Lou Reed and recorded for noted producer Howard Shore on the soundtrack for David Cronenberg's Cosmopolis only built their confidence in the decision to access a bigger stage.
The last time Metric hit town in 2009 it filled the 1,600-seat Burton Cummings Theatre, but on Saturday it steps up to the MTS Centre, with opening act Stars. Shaw is surprised so many people don't see the arena tour as simply a natural evolution.
"It's like, no one asks Carly Rae Jepsen (of Call Me Maybe instant fame) why she's playing the Bell Centre (in Montreal)," says Shaw, during an interview held only hours before the tour was to launch in Victoria. "With us, it's such a strange thing. We're so not that band."
Shaw, Haines, bassist Joshua Winstead and drummer Joules Scott-Key have always been a quartet with ambitions set very high and they have been relatively inflexible with what they would do to get there, says the 37-year-old Shaw.
"We have all been fascinated with the idea about how far we can take this," says Shaw, who trained at Juilliard as a classical musician. "One of the things I know about this band is the bigger the stage, the more comfortable we feel. Emily is like a creature onstage; the more space you give her to roam around, the more she expresses herself."
Shaw suspects that tall poppy syndrome is what's driving the insistent inquiries about the band's aim to become arena headliners. It's a Canadian thing to react to success with suspicion -- and a tendency to cut down or attack people whose talents elevate them above their peers.
"It's a huge part of Canadian culture, putting false limitations on others to keep ourselves in the same stratosphere" he says. "We're not comfortable letting one of our own skyrocket to the top. It makes people generally uncomfortable in this country. It's completely the opposite in the U.S. They expect you to skyrocket to the top and you're a failure if you don't."
Part of the band's underdog appeal has been its DIY philosophy, which manifested itself most distinctly when it rejected multimillion-dollar contracts from major labels and founded its own stand-alone company, Metric Music International. It took complete control of its own destiny, which meant more money in the Metric pot but a lot of tedious financial reporting.
Five years later, Shaw calls the decision to go it alone without the financial backing of an established record label the best thing the band ever did.
But the public shouldn't get the impression that he and Haines had a clearer crystal ball than anyone else.
"At the time it wasn't this giant triumphant, 'F the world, we're going to do this on our own and we will win,' and there was this giant high-five," he says with a chuckle. "It was more like, 'Of my God, we are so screwed and we have to do it this way.'
"I didn't want to die on someone else's plane. I wanted to be responsible for whether it flew or dove."
Piloting Metric as one of its CEOs is a heady job for Shaw, but one that has its built-in turbulence. Shaw says that what he is learned is that rock 'n' roll bands hemorrhage money and that accounting for it on the road is a "400-pound migraine."
What's worst is that you can't whine or pull a rock-star hissy-fit about over-scheduled promotional tours or crappy accommodations, because you're the one who booked it. The music business is in continual flux and knowing what to do next is like rolling the dice, he says.
It's like a giant online poker game," Shaw says. "If you pay attention to all the variables, it makes it easier to win. If you know where your fans are, you can do something cool about connecting to them."
An unanticipated perk of Metric's business model is the number of bands that now seek out Shaw and Haines for advice on going solo in the music industry. That's something Shaw never expected, given that for so many years they felt like "rogue freaks" doing everything the wrong way.
But that's the important message behind Metric, says Shaw. The idea that you have to believe in yourself and choose your own path, no matter what everyone else says, is at the core of Metric.
"If there is anything to disseminate to people that would be it," says Shaw, who is excited that he will be sharing this tour with his oldest friends in Stars.
That doesn't make preparing for the future and determining what's next any easier.
"That's a good question," Shaw says. "It's a question that's been the topic of many conference calls in the last few weeks. We've always known what the next step would be. I don't know what to do after this. I don't see the next step. We're excited by that."

And I've had people say to me so what do you think about Vince McMahon trying to ruin your career with the whole stalker thing, blah, blah, blah. Over the years, right? Anything that anyone thought cause I made a lot of those decisions myself and they were stupid decisions by me. Anyone who ever thinks that there has ever been anything between Vince and me or whatever and I've always told everyone; no, there's not. What Vince did for me two Monday's ago with DDP Yoga was--he couldn't have given me a better angle. He couldn't have given me a better spot. He let me go on there for a minute and a half. It was written into the copy! They gave it to me. I didn't pick up the DVD's and do that. That was written for me. "Wear your shirt." Hunter told me do the foot over the head, that always blows people away. You know I was like okay! I expected to be in something but I didn't expect it to be what it was. And to have Booker T involved too, who is one of my good buddies. Cause he's the one guy from WCW who really got over. He's a five time World Champion and he got the strap there. So bottom line is to be able to do it with him and then have Ron (Simmons) come out; it was just--we did so many takes of it, every one was funnier than the next. I had liked the last one the best but there were other ones that were laugh your ass off funny. And we just had a blast. And Ron said (DDP imitating his voice), "Man, Diamond they're really working you today. This one's gonna be a shameless plug but you working for that s**t today…DAMN."
