From Hollywood.com Staff
We've already shared with you our favorite TV shows, singles, and books of 2012. But we know what the Internet demands. So, for your viewing pleasure, we've rounded up our 13 favorite nude scenes from television and films this year. Risqué, surprising, and sexy, these were the scenes that left our tongues wagging for more reason than one. Start reading the list below, and click through to see our favorite nude scenes featuring Kristen Stewart, Chris Hemsworth and more!
We'd point to Magic Mike's innumerable Xquisite butt shots, but we prefer to be equal opportunity here. Mike's (Channing Tatum) opening nude scene with on again off again girlfriend Joanna (Olivia Munn) was such an eyeful, we began to wish their clothes could be as off again as their relationship.
NEXT: The Vampire Vamps[PAGEBREAK]
Following her participation in the very PG-13 Twilight franchise, Kristen Stewart was eager to move on by taking it all off. In the adaptation of the Jack Kerouac novel, Stewart not only acts in the buff, but participates in a threesome as well. Turns out the star of the PG-13 vampire series has some bite after all.
NEXT: Bachelor in the Buff[PAGEBREAK]
Bachelor super-villainess Courtney Robertson learned quickly that the closest way to a man's heart is through your own skivvies. The eventual winner of Ben Flajnik's final rose shocked Bachelor fans and contestants when she encouraged her paramour to an on-camera skinny dip. Nothing like taking a nice swim before your post-season relationship sinks.
NEXT: The Table Is Turned[PAGEBREAK]
Man, when serial killers go at it, they really go all out! When it comes to sex, Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall) has never been one for emotions or connecting with another human let alone having an interest in sticking it in (a pre-existing hole not made by his own knife skills). So it was certainly shocking to see Dexy getting sexy with fellow murderperson Hannah McKay (Yvonne Strahovski) after he wrapped her up in plastic and intended to kill her. Dexter, having sex, with another serial killer, that he initiated? And enjoyed? Who is this Dexter Morgan?! Because we don't know him (but we don't mind him)!
NEXT: A Nude Scene That Makes Our Heads Swim[PAGEBREAK]
Marion Cotillard bares all, emotionally and physically, in Jacques Audiard's Rust and Bone. When Cotillard's double amputee Stephanie swims in the ocean for the first time since her tragic accident, the moment was perhaps the beautiful and profound nude scene in film this year.
NEXT: Girls Just Wanna Have Explicit Sex Scenes[PAGEBREAK]
Lena Dunham's numerous nude scenes during the first season of HBO's Girls was jarring to many unaccustomed to seeing average-sized nude women on television. But Dunham's Girls broke boundaries, continually forcing audiences to get comfortable with the concept of normal nudity. Turns out Hannah habitually gets as naked as her emotions.
NEXT: This Is What We Call Bonding![PAGEBREAK]
We were expecting you, Mr. Bond to get naked in the franchise's latest, Skyfall. So your shower scene with Berenice Marlohe certainly didn't disappoint.
NEXT: A Happy View of a Mad Man[PAGEBREAK]
It was quite refreshing to see Roger Sterling's (John Slattery) behind on full display during Mad Men's Season 5 finale. Showcasing a man's assets on a series that centers on the objectification of women? That certainly doesn't make us mad, man.
NEXT: Not Going to Make a Wood Joke, But We Could[PAGEBREAK]
A slasher horror movie isn't complete without a splash of nudity, rounding it out as wonderfully gratuitous piece of entertainment. So in true shlock spirit, this year's meta-horror movie Cabin in the Woods found a way to have smarter-than-your-average-horror-coed Jules lose her top. Already at the mercy of the cabin's technician team, Jules (Anna Hutchison) and her boyfriend Curt (Chris Hemsworth) are drugged with pheromones, causing them to run away to the woods for a intimate moment in the grass. Within seconds of Jules losing her shirt, zombies attack.
NEXT: If Three is a Crowd, We Like Crowds.[PAGEBREAK]
The original 1990 version of Total Recall's three-breasted woman certainly wasn't broke, but this year's reboot gave us an update anyway in the form of Kaitlyn Leeb. Like they say: Two is company.
NEXT: Stark Raving Mad[PAGEBREAK]
George (Paul Rudd) and Linda (Jennifer Aniston) ended up at the New Age commune Elysium by accident, stranded in the camp until their wrecked car could be fixed. But after a few days living among the hippies, they were full-fledged members, evidenced by Linda's participation in a topless protest against a group of property developers. As the peace-loving say: ""make nudity, not war.""
NEXT: HB-Oh, the Nudity![PAGEBREAK]
Take your pick: Season 2 of Game of Thrones was full of so much nudity (the Blackwater lap-sitting moment, this tryst between Stannis Baratheon and Melisandre, the list goes on ), it's impossible to single out one single scene. Which means, when it comes to HBO's Game, that we're really the winner.
NEXT: Liam's Taken It Off[PAGEBREAK]
Liam Neeson is Taken all his clothes off. The Taken 2 star agreed to strip on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in October to help raise awareness for breast cancer research. And, it turns out, the 60-year-old star looks (Ra's al) Good.

Urinary Incontinence
Urinary incontinence is the inability to control the release of urine. It may be related to infection, problems with the nerves and muscles of the bladder, physical or mental disabilities, or problems with the structure of the urinary tract.
Urinary incontinence is not a disease. But it may point to a problem with the urinary tract, such as a urinary tract infection.
Incontinence may occur for only a short time (acute) or it may be an ongoing (chronic) problem. Typically, incontinence clears up when the cause, such as a urinary tract infection, is treated successfully. Depending on the cause, treatment may cure chronic incontinence. If the condition cannot be completely cured, it usually can be managed to limit its effect on a person's daily life.

I read that twins touch each other in the womb before they touch themselves. I wonder if that's why they're always holding hands, grabbing each other's faces, sticking their hands in each other's mouths and chewing on each other's toes. I don't care why actually, I just enjoy it. It's so cute!

On Demand Advertising
Posted by
NEW YORK, NEW YORK -- I hate that when I watch an on demand television program that I can't fast forward. Think about it, if I had interest in the advertisement, I'd watch it, but no, I am forced to watch 45 Muppet Movie commercials. I wouldn't go see that movie if my attendance cured cancer. I've begun to just not watch shows that can't be fast forwarded. ABC/Disney are the absolute worst in that regard. Nearly every on demand show prevents fast forward. Madison Avenue must be severely retarded to recommend this tact to ABC. Personally, I put advertisers that implement this kind of mean-spirited advertising on my "do not support list", i.e. The Muppet Movie. I won't watch the movie in the theater, on cable, DVD, computer, and not I won't let my kids or grandkids ever watch it. I hope ABC/Disney pulls their marketing head out of a specific sphincter muscle.

The OP isn't talking about watching a DVD. They are talking about watching a show On Demand. There are commercials that cannot be fast forwarded when they are watching shows from ABC On Demand.

I'd gladly see a movie I didn't want to watch if it cured cancer. I'd rush out to see it right away, actually.
lexophiliac on 2011-12-30:
You can use Page Up to skip ahead 5 minutes, which bypasses the commercials, then rewind back if it's too much. You can use PageDn to skip back 5 minutes. Once the networks figure this out they will probably find a way to put the kibosh on that workaround too.

Inappropriate commercials at 6:00 P.M. viewing time
Posted by
My grand kids, 13 and 5, where with us last night so we were watching the Cat in the Hat, The Grinch, etc. on the ABC family chan. when a commercial came on advertising up-coming shows etc. when it began to so women in scantilly clad attire and provocative poses that lasted way to long. I couldn't believe this was on at 6:15 P.M. and on a family TV channel.
I was very upset and concerned about this and ABC should be ashamed.

They want your feedback.
GenuineNerd on 2011-12-03:
What product was being advertised by these "scantily clad women"? I know that during dinnertime, many stations do run distasteful commercials, such as for hemorrhoid cream, toenail fungus treatment, jock itch spray, tampons, maxi pads, even the cute Charmin commercial in which the little bear has "dingleberries" (little bits of toilet paper) left on his butt. A friend of mine got upset over the "toenail fungus" commercial, because he was eating while the ad ran. I guess it's both the shock value and the money that causes advertisers to run such commercials during the dinner hour. I find it shocking, to say the least, if I'm sitting down to dinner, and a commercial announcer says "For itching and burning, doctors recommend Preparation H".
Skye on 2011-12-03:
Well GN, you just about covered everything!
I believe the op is complaining about the Victoria's Secret commercial.
trp2hevn on 2011-12-03:
I hear PBS is a good channel to watch.
Anonymous on 2011-12-03:
Cat in the Hat starring Mike Myers on ABC family channel? Is the OP not alarmed at the part of the movie where Mr. Myers unfolds a picture of a woman sideways (an obvious innuendo of a centerfold) and his sagging top hat then straightens up (a 2nd innuendo of a male's genitals).
The Grinch That Stole Christmas? Please say it wasn't Jim Carrey's version. The one that also involves innuendos and a reference to a "key party"...aka...wife-swapping.
Great programming choices on the part of ABC!
Bottom line...I think the commercials are the least of the OP's worries.
Venice09 on 2011-12-03:
Justice, I don't think the OP was watching those versions.
Nerd, I agree. The distasteful commercials at dinnertime are more bothersome than scantily clad women. I see the OP's point though. Why show those type commercials during children's programming? It seems like a waste of money.
Anonymous on 2011-12-03:
Venice> I believe it was those versions. And if that wasn't bad enough, the programming on before was "That 70's Show"...the sitcom where marijuana references happen about every other scene. Again...quality programming for a "so-called" family channel.
Alain on 2011-12-03:
If there is one thing I can assure you, it is that ABC and the rest of the networks are not and will not ever be ashamed of anything they do as long as its legal and might make money.
lexophiliac on 2011-12-03:
So you're saying as far as the networks are concerned there is no shame in their game Alain?
Alain on 2011-12-03:
That's my feeling about them. The only shame they feel is when the ratings drop. Maybe too cynical, or maybe realistic. **offers a poker hand to J4A & Lex**
Alain on 2011-12-03:
That came my way a little ways back. Not sure why, but it's okay. I'm not really trying for anything, but I enjoy it here. Anyway, everyone else is equal when it comes to stuff here.
Venice09 on 2011-12-03:
Justice, if you're right about what they were watching, then I agree. I didn't see either of those movie because they're too creepy. I doubt they're appropriate for 5-year olds for a variety of reasons.

Some of us actually parent our children and are very picky of what we allow in our households.
This is what the OP was watching. "A whimsical cartoon about an audacious cat who visits two bored children and turns their house into a shambles while searching for his family "credenza." Dr Seuss wrote the lyrics for the songs. Voices: Allan Sherman (cat), Dawes Butler (fish),...
The Grinch was also the cartoon, after the cartoons came the adult versions. I'm sure many of us exercised our off button at that time.
Cwazychicken on 2011-12-04:
I don't know if we have different abc family channels but the movie versions, not the cartoons, were on last night. I did not watch them but I skimmed my dvr showings at around 6 and 8 and saw them on last night.
ABC family shows all kinds of shows, some not so suitable for younger viewers but aimed more for teens. Like pretty little liars (about a "murder" mystery." All I can say is that's what you can expect from cable. Only channels really good for children are pbs, and nick jr. Maybe abc needs a abc JR for just kids.

Rose Parade Coverage
Posted by
I attempted to view the Rose Parade on ABC this morning. I listened to banter, laughter, with a look at a float passing down the street. Camera view showed a group or float behind the featured float, then the camera switched to the announcers, who were chattering about each other. Behind them a band was Marching along. No "Oh yes, back to the parade!" "Ah.... there is a float and lets talk to the people from Days Of Our Life" and the starring actress says "Here's what is going to happen in 2011". Who cares! I want to see the Rose Parade. All of it. I want to know what equestrian group is in the parade. I want to know what is going on in the street behind the blabbing announcers. Advertisements should only be scrolled at the bottom of the screen. I won't buy UNO, I won't buy a Discover card, I won't buy Geico, I don't and won't eat at McDonalds. What happened to the GOOD OLD DAYS. Are you improving? No way. Shirley

America's Funniest Home Videos Going Trashy
Posted by
ABC has gone so seedy that it can't even seem to put on a supposedly wholesome family show without edgy, off-color or subtlety sexual humor. I have been a fan of America's Funniest Home video's for years because of its wholesome good clean fun. This last season is a tremendous disappointment. 30 clips of "ball"-crushing accidents is one thing, but showing men, women and children in their underwear, bras and a bathing suits popping off, and children innocently doing sexually suggestive stunts is beyond the pale of family programming. For heaven's sake, the host of the show can't even talk to a toddler sucking on his mike without making crude remarks. This show needs to decide if it's for adults or children--it can't be both at once. If for adults, then it should be moved to the adult programming hour, not at 7:00.
If for children, show some restraint, for heaven's sake. You guys have so many edgy shows on, allow us a show or two of good wholesome fun, without the trash please!

Soaring Consumer on 2009-01-18:
I remember the older seasons and I loved it, I miss the old AFV. The newer one is all about pain, accidents, and stupidity and that is why I stopped watching it.
I think we should all get together and send a petition to ABC.
madconsumer on 2009-01-19:

sabletaz on 2009-01-19:
Stop watching.....
Sparticus on 2009-01-19:
This is nothing new. Have you ever watched the Shrek movie(s)? Packed with adult humor. Kids don't get it... so it makes it enjoyable for both young and old.
Most the time it is pretty harmless since kids have no clue what the joke is about...
Anonymous on 2009-01-19:
The thing about AFV is exactly as soaring consumer said--it's just not funny anymore. People getting hurt is never funny to me and it seems that's all they have on the show now. It probably won't be long before it goes off the air anyway. I don't think kids should be taught that hurting people is funny anyway. Yes, they can change the channel or stop watching--but, I think they were trying to make a valid point.

Principissa on 2009-01-19:
Maybe I'm weird, but I've never liked that show. I just don't see the humor in some guy getting kicked in the jewels or watching granny slip on ice and land with her dress over her head. I guess I just don't see an old lady breaking her hip as funny.
I think the point the poster is trying to make (and this is just my opinion) is that the show is not funny anymore and that the off color humor and same boring clips is getting old and tired.

Amen, Princi. See my comment above--no, the one above that. Great minds think alike, lol.

Best answer, Princi. Such incidents are funny when staged, but I can take find no humor in seeing someone injured and embarrassed. The show appeals to some very base instincts.

I did not say the op was a prude, I said I would not use that word anymore.

Why can't a show be for adults and children?
I usually try to stay away from complaints about tv shows and celebrities. You can turn it off, switch channels on the first and who cares about the other.

cottondog on 2009-01-29:
Thanks for your comments and support. Some were helpful, some not. The off-handed response of "just turn the channel" is also a tired one, when every time you turn the channel you get more of the same or worse. I feel that's an excuse to avoid taking responsibility. Using edge as an opportunity to teach your child shows some ignorance as to the psychological make-up of children. As a teacher, I see that young children are pretty black and white about what's "good" and "bad". Since they are taught (rightly) that people getting hurt is not funny, and that we don't show our underwear (!) they tend to get upset and embarrassed when they see things they know they are not supposed to--. They get conflicting messages about stuff.
But my main point is, again, why does the trashy stuff have to seep into every family program, as if the writers can't restrain themselves? Again, can we not have a couple of completely innocent, G-rated, no-worry programs without being told that our views don't matter, just turn the channel? AFC has proven that in the past that it is possible to be funny without trash, so why not do it? If you want trash, it's easy to find all over the place.
madconsumer on 2009-01-29:
"The off-handed response of "just turn the channel" is also a tired one, when every time you turn the channel you get more of the same or worse."
then your next step is to stop watching the telley all together.
cottondog on 2009-01-30:
To mad consumer--Actually,I pretty much stopped watching the "telly" years ago--I don't own cable and AFV and a few other programs are all I watch (although I own some very high quality DVDs!). So you can understand my disappointment at having yet another program turn sour. The sad thing is, it's not necessary. As I said AFV has proven in times past that it can make a wonderful family program that both adults and children can enjoy and laugh together with no worries. I feel we are all robbed.
JonathanPaulX on 2011-10-15:
Just watched AFV tonight on ABC and I was completely disgusted. A catholic priest is conducting confession with an elderly woman when he suddenly strips and starts gyrating in nothing but a codpiece. What if it were a rabbi, or an Iman instead? This one video should be enough by itself to outrage all devout catholics and motivate them to a full scale boycott of ABC. What do you think?
Thad on 2013-01-01:
AFV is one of the worst concepts ever conceived in the television industry. I agree the show was tamer back in the Saget era, but painfully lame in character. The current host, Tom Bergeron (spelling?) is a boorish man. I never liked him. He appears as someone who's terribly conceited, sly and insecure at the same time. AFV severely became the crude village when Bergeron took over the hosting duties. Why AFV has lasted as long as it has really makes me question society. I'm not going to pick a part the viewers who actually enjoy AFV, but I just can't fathom the desire to waste an hour watching amateur media of people engaging in ruthless, mindless stunts or the plethora of crude material along with all of the staged videos people submit. So be sure to tune into AFV next week to see 5 year old Billy eat Jello through his nose, and watch as his 2 year old brother tinkles inside their daddy's guitar.
Charlene on 2013-11-05:
exploitation of children in the semi nude. Sexual situations. I'm not hear to complain. I want it stopped! Tom Bergeron is a perv and acts like a pedifile.

Amana Washer

CANTON, MICHIGAN -- After Four years the bottom of the washer is starting to [rust] and they told me there was nothing they could do. The washer cost $373.00 and the repair men said it would cost me $250.00 to fix it. The bad part of this that when I bought the washer I got a 5 year warranty, they told me the warranty did not cover this . HA! HA! how about that!

Cabinet rust rarely is covered by any warranty outside of maybe the full one year. If it is cabinet rust, you could touch that up yourself with some rust paint. Won't look great but will be better than the rust spots. Your unit should have a lot of life left in it otherwise.

BigAl on 2012-05-13:
Viewer numbers is just part of a show making it. Cost of the production is also considered. That is why a show like Wife Swap will remain on (cheap to produce) and more popular shows will be cancelled.

Freaks and geeks was a good show too...cancelled before it should've been.

Bad Tree Removal Business
Posted by
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND -- DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!! Hired them for tree removal. Did a lousy job, and then did not return to finish what they were paid for. Owner Jerry admits to not completing job and advises that balance of money will be refunded, but it's been 5 weeks, and no refund. Calls and emails to him have gone unanswered. Yes, I should not have paid them in full, but the owner Jerry seemed to be an honest guy, so lesson learned and buyer beware! This will go to litigation, but that's my problem.

No More Reality Shows

It is very disturbing that ABC Television does not care what their viewers want rather they are only in for the money, how disgusting. Our economy is tanking and they only care about themselves. No respect for their followers of All My Children for 41 years. I am so disappointed. It was so nice to turn on the television and see familiar faces, and some sense of normalcy in this very harsh economic time. I will not watch the CHEW, nothing against the people in it, but come on, have some respect for your long time viewers.

It is a lot cheaper to produce reality TV shows, and they deliver ratings. It seems more dramas and sitcoms are moving to the big cable stations.
grandma005 on 2011-09-25:
I will not watch the CHEW either. All my Children fans boycott it. I feel like I have lost part of my family after of 41 years of watching it.
kinthenorthwest on 2011-09-25:
The reality shows are leading to the demise of many people, especially when their 15 mins of fame is all over.
Just look at the recent suicide.
At Your Service on 2011-09-25:
Thank goodness the soaps are finally coming to an end! Terribly acted with equally poor scripts. It was reducing the mentality of housewives everywhere.
Hey, the Amazing Race starts up again tonight! ;-)

how true AYS.
old fart on 2011-09-25:
I am sick unto death of "reality" shows AND soap operas..give me "2 and a half men" every time.
When I watch TV I want to be entertained!
Everything else is a downer, particularly the "News"
which is generally ALL bad.
kinthenorthwest on 2011-09-25:
Oldfart...I only watch 2 and a half men once in a while...
I did find it strange that they fired Charley for doing in real life what he is protraying on the show.
MRM on 2011-09-25:
Come on Old Fart! There are good reality shows out there such as:
Storage Wars
American Choppers
Myth Busters
Car Fellas
Cash Cab

I love Storage Wars!
MRM on 2011-09-25:
I have downloaded Seasons 1 and 2 and I could watch it over and over again!
NicoleM on 2011-09-25:
I like Pawn Stars and American Pickers. They come across some really interesting stuff!
MRM on 2011-09-25:
Pawn Stars and American Pickers are good shows as well.
Huck_Hoshimoto on 2011-09-25:
Ya, MRM....I like all of those too, BUT;
Ever since that Sr./Jr. split, Paul Sr. acts like a whiney old lady - talking trash about Jr. and his abilities when for the previous 2 years, Paul Jr. was the one that did 90% of the designing & fabrication.
The only time you saw Paul Sr. is when he walked into the shop to gripe about something and then walk out!
And then there was the rip-off design that Paul Sr. pulled with the "Black Widow 2" bike - Paul Jr. originated the first Black Widow and then after he leaves, Paul Sr. tried to capitalize on his son's design.
Paul Sr.'s lost his touch.
I hope he loses his @ss! [He's already down-scaling to smaller shop because his business is lagging.

The "top twenty" shows on TRU TV are also a favorite of mine...

Speeders and Parking Wars are really good! I'mma going to marry Garfield! (NOT the cat)...
GenuineNerd on 2011-09-25:
Soap operas are going the way of game shows on daytime TV as well. Used to be, there were at least 10-12 game shows on daytime TV...now the only ones left are Family Feud and The Price Is Right. I know that Wheel Of Fortune and Jeopardy are on in the evenings, and primetime TV have had their share of game shows as well, but I'm talking daytime. Eventually, all you'll see on daytime TV are endless "court" and "judge" shows, talk shows with lower-class, unrefined people in shouting/shoving/fighting matches, and any talk show host that's desperately trying to be the next Oprah (a tough act to follow.) If you have nothing better to do than watch TV during the day, maybe it's time to abandon the networks and turn to cable.
trmn8r on 2011-09-25:
I was near a church today, and they were having a "free" car wash, evidently to recruit parishoners (weird).
What really blew my mind was that the Price is Right theme song was playing in a loop as they washed cars. I was looking around for Jim Jones hiding behind the bushes.
At Your Service on 2011-09-26:
Hopefully it was a bikini car wash trmn8r.

My recommendation: stop watching.
MRM on 2011-06-07:
This season of NCIS is boring and lame, but you don't see me complaining. I just change the channel. Two of my favorite shows are Hawaii Five-0 and Burn Notice.
unhappy999 on 2011-06-07:
I have never been a fan but The Bachelorette show is getting stupider by the minute. Last night they had a group of the guys and Ashley go a Comedy Club and the guys were supposed to "Roast" Ashley. So they did and then she ends up crying because of what they said. How stupid is that?
PepperElf on 2011-06-07:
Do what I do... Don't watch reality TV.
Actually I don't watch TV at all aside from Hulu and dvds. My BF and I just started watching Brisco County Jr.
Anonymous on 2011-06-07:
I don't watch any of those shows on ABC. I think Dancing With the Stars is the dumbest show ever. Never got into the Bachelor or the Bachlorette. The only thing I do like on ABC is What Would You Do
PepperElf on 2011-06-07:
Little - exactly. In my opinion the reality shows cater to the lowest common denominator.
The only current running tv show my bf and I actually care about is TBBT cos it at least is interesting. But even then we still do the DVDs :)
Well OK, I do like house but I haven't watched it this past season - I got busy.
trmn8r on 2011-06-07:
From your complaint, it sounds like the show is what I would expect from a reality show where people hook up. That's why I don't watch it.
Venice09 on 2011-06-07:
I miss "Lost", "Medium", "Monk", "Nip/Tuck" and "ER". Those were my favorite shows. "House" had a decent season but it's starting to wear thin. There are a few shows coming in the Fall that sound interesting, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
Skye on 2011-06-07:
Nip/Tuck one of my all time favorites.
Anonymous on 2011-06-07:
Thank MTV's 'Real World' for starting this reality craze.....
Anonymous on 2011-06-07:
"Lost" was definitely the best show on ABC. I used to watch "House" but it's not the same show it used to be
Venice09 on 2011-06-07:
Skye, "Nip/Tuck" was a one of a kind show. I was hooked from the first time I watched it. I'm not surprised that you liked it, too.
Venice09 on 2011-06-07:
"Lost" was the best show EVER! There's a new J.J. Abrams' show coming in the Fall called "Person of Interest" with Michael Emerson. There will never be another "Lost", but seeing Michael Emerson again will be fun.
I don't think "House" is going to do well next season. Cuddy is leaving, and Wilson's appearances will be limited because he is also be doing a Broadway show.

Is WWF really "reality"?
Anonymous on 2011-06-07:
Yes....Wrestling is very real...lol
Starlord on 2011-06-07:
If you ever saw the documentary narrated by Steve Allen on pro wrestling, you will discover positively that pro wrestling is not real, never has been, never will be. As he asks at the nend of the program, "Would you really want it real?" The ring is sprung and miced to make stomps sound a lot bigger than actual, the wrestlers are entertainers who performalmost 300 days a year. If what you see were not choreographed stunts, the 'wrestlers' would be in hospitals six months of the year. They know they really can't hurt one another, since this is how they make their living, and if they were really as hateful, they might really get 'accidentally' hurt. I can't tell you the number of times in Indianapolis, I would see wrestlers at restaurants having a good old time, just after it looked like they were trying to kill each other in the ring. No pro wrestling is not real, and the WWE is not the only game in the wrestling business. It is entertainment, pure and simple. The stars are actors, and they are athletes who perform fantastic stunts, but they are not really competing, it is all determined ahead of time.
PepperElf on 2011-06-07:
"Would you really want it real?"
Star - the answer must be "Yes"
Otherwise the UFC would never exist.
Anonymous on 2011-06-07:
Well thanks for clearing that up Starlord....
Starlord on 2011-06-07:
Elf, you are absolutely correct. I was only quoting Steve Allen. I think, however, the active career of a pro wrestler is much longer than a MMA fighter, precisely because they do not take the beatings they appear to. The human body can only take so much punishment. Also, you will never see an MMA fighter blatantly miss a cue and obviously take a punch that is no closer than a foot, LOL.
PepperElf on 2011-06-07:
O yeah. I agree... that's why Hulk Hogan is still performing when he's what... 900?
I doubt UFC fighters have careers lasting anywhere as long... simply because they take real damage and not fake-damage.

Not A Family Show
Posted by
miami mom
When I allow my children to stay up late, we watch re-run episodes of America's Funniest Videos. I was really upset last night when they showed their VS. segment. It was Strippers VS. something that I forgot. I was shocked that they showed almost nude adults slipping, tripping, etc. I had to pretend that I mistakenly changed the channel, so my young children would not be exposed tho this garbage. This is one of the few shows that we watch together, and sadly enough, we will not be watching together anymore. Change your "garbage" segments, or you will see an increase of complaints, and decrease in viewers.
Thank You,
Marcela Cuesta

I cannot stand that show. I don't find it funny at all. I don't think that cruelty to animals and watching an old lady fall down and have her skirt fly up is funny at all.
madconsumer on 2009-04-18:
being it is a family show, the censors allowed it.
sarahnkrystal on 2009-04-18:
I think one of the ones that won was a girl singing while her naked brothers danced behind her......not family to me, borderline child porn maybe...
BokiBean on 2009-04-18:
AMV is mostly ball shots, some poor guy being kicks/punched/hit right in the the family jewels (they even have a commercial that advertises themselves showing only "nut shots")...if you ask me it kind of caters to a cruel streak in people. Just quit watching it.

A/N This story takes place in new moon and Bella is on the edge of the cliff and she's about to jump...
I closed my eyes.
it was him. his voice was beautiful but wrong.
"Bella, don't do this." It said.
This time I listened to it more carefully. It was as if it was the voice of an angel but still, it sounded wrong. Different. I was confused. It was Edward's voice, but it didn't make a difference to me. I didn't care if I was hearing his voice. In that instant,the hole in my chest was gone.
Erased. What was going on? I asked
myself, completely shocked. I waited for the hole to come back but it didn't.
"Bella!" a voice, a different huskier voice interrupted my train of thought. It was the voice I wanted to hear. The voice I craved.
I looked behind me and huge tanned figure ran to me. Jacob. Seeing his face made me smile.
"What the hell do you think you're doing!?" he asked, catching his breath.
I looked down and I realized I was still at the edge of the cliff. The waves were crashing furiously at the rocks below. I took an involuntary step back.
"C-cliff d-diving..?" my teeth chattered. It was freezing cold out here! I couldn't imagine how cold the water must be.
He walked towards me and gave me one of his big bear hugs. He was so warm. I hugged him tighter but it still didn't feel tight enough. He probably thought I was cold so he hugged me tighter too. I liked how his shoulders were wide and strong. How his hair was styled messily and how he had
the most prefect smile. I never noticed Jacob like this.
"Come on Bells. I'll bring you home." His voice made my heart skip a beat. What was happening to me?
"I-iii don't wanna go home yet. " I was beginning to feel warmer in his arms.
He sighed and turned so that I was pinned to his side and his arm was on my shoulder. I had butterflies in my stomach.
It's only Jacob. He puts his arm around me all the time. He's my friend. I thought to myself as we walked to my truck. My mind debated if being his friend was enough.
We reached my truck and he opened the passenger door for me. I stepped in as he walked to the driver's side. I was beginning to feel cold again as we drove to his house. Jacob seemed to notice.
"It's a hundred and eight degrees over here," he said, as he patted his seat. I scooted to his side. I let out a sigh. It felt nice.
There was a few minutes of silence until I asked him how he knew I was on the cliff.
"I was running in the forest near the trail and I heard your truck. Sam told us that the redhead's trail was gone so I followed you. What were you thinking bella! Didn't you see that it was turning into a tornado out there?"
I shrugged.
He stopped the engine and got out. I opened my door and stepped onto the dirt trail to his house. We walked together.
Billy was nowhere in sight when we got inside the house. The phone rang and Jacob hurried to the kitchen to get it.
"Hello? Yea she's here," I guess whoever jake was talking to knew about what I almost did.
"Is he ok?"
"oh." His voice sounded suddenly glum. This worried me. Who was he?
Jacob hung up and walked back to me. His face looked sad. I looked up at him and gave him a hug.
"what was that about?" I asked, sympathy and curiosity in my voice.
"It's harry. Harry Clearwater. He had a heart attack."
This took me by surprise. Harry was charlie's best friend.
"Is he ok?" I asked, remembering Jacob's conversation on the phone.
He gave me this look and I knew that it wasn't looking so great for harry. I felt truly sorry for seth, leah and sue.
"Are you ok?" Jacob examined me. His voice different.
"Of course." Other than the shock I felt when edward's voice erased the hole in my chest, I felt great. I was with Jacob and it surprised me how happy I was to be with him. The shock in my voice didn't assure Jacob.
"you tired?" he asked.
I shook my head. just confused I thought.
ok so i know it isn't so great but please tell me what you think. thanks :]

Dennis Lehane is a force to be reckoned with. His best selling novels include Gone, Baby Gone, Mystic River, Shutter Island, The Given Day, and Moonlight Mile, and big-screen adaptations have been helmed by Ben Affleck, Clint Eastwood, and Martin Scorsese.
Called "as much social historian as mystery writer," by The Chicago Tribune, Lehane once again showcases his ability to create suspenseful historical fiction with his first stand-alone novel in four years.
The popularity of HBO's Boardwalk Empire and Ken Burns' Prohibition mini-series have set the stage for LIVE BY NIGHT, a Prohibition-era tale that catapults readers between 1920s Boston and Florida, introducing a cast of hard-living gangsters, petty criminals, and two unforgettable dames.
Play the video to see Lehane's interview with Fox 2's Alan Lee>>

About LIVE BY NIGHT:
By 1926, banning of alcohol in the United States had given birth to a maze of underground distilleries and speakeasies with gangsters and police corruption running rampant. Joe Coughlin, the youngest son of one of Boston's most prominent cops, has strayed from his father's example and lives a life of petty criminality for one of the city's toughest bosses.
But when Emma Gould crosses Joe's path, he knows he's done for. Emma is the mistress of Albert White, the gangster singlehandedly responsible for rubbing out Joe's old boss and landing Joe in prison. Once in prison, Joe falls under Italian mob protection, and on release, heads down to Florida to push Albert White out of his bootlegging territory with the backing of his Italian "friends." What follows is a shady tale of swindling and bamboozling in Florida, Cuba, and Boston that pits one mobster against another in a fight for respect, superiority, and firm control of the country's illicit rum business.

(RNN) - Plastic surgery? Working out? A shiny, new sports car? Nope, there's a better way to prove your youth and vitality to your friends.
An online hearing test that takes less than two minutes and that's a lot more fun than a doctor's office will tell you how good your hearing is.
According to the video produced by AsapSCIENCE, youth determines how high a frequency people hear because of damage done to small cells in the ear over time.
So if you're younger than 20 or if you have somehow managed to avoid loud music and heavy construction for most of your life you likely can hear a sound played at 19,000 hertz frequency.
The test is by no means a replacement for a doctor's exam, but it has become popular after less than two full days on YouTube. The video has more than 860,000 viewers and 12,500 comments since it was uploaded Tuesday.
If your hearing isn't on par for your age, don't feel bad. It could mean you didn't watch the video in 1080p with headphones, as recommended in the description (maybe you need an eye test, too).
It's also a good excuse for drowning out people you really don't feel like listening to.

Migraine patch approved by FDA
(Cleveland, OH) -- There's a new weapon in the battle against migraine headache pain. An electrical skin patch provides an alternative to pills, nasal sprays and injections. The patch releases sumatriptan, a widely prescribed drug for migraine headache. This is the first patch the FDA has approved to treat migraines. It could be available at the end of the year.

ROOKIE BLUE - "Every Man" - Weeks of trials and tribulations come to a head when the rookies of 15 Division are left on their own and a frenzied night in the station culminates in a prisoner pulling a gun on Chris in cells. The ensuing inquiry has Internal Affairs looking for someone to blame. With careers on the line, the rookies reflect on the personal and professional choices that have led each of them to that night's events, walking a fine line between telling the truth and having each other's backs. Meanwhile, Gail is still trying to recover from her harrowing abduction, Chris is blindsided by a personal revelation, and Andy learns a secret about Nick's past, on "Rookie Blue," THURSDAY, AUGUST 30 (9:00-10:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

KHQ.COM - On Monday afternoon emergency crews responded to a logging truck rollover crash on Hwy. 290 just 4 miles east of Spokane Valley near the town of Newman Lake.
It took crews about an hour to clean up all of the logs on the roadway. Eastbound lanes were blocked for a while. Traffic is now running smoothly in the area. Only minor injuries were reported. It's not clear what caused the driver to lose control.

I can't tell if my pump is giving out, if my supply is tanking or if DD is just eating so efficiently that she leaves nothing to pump. Here is my story:
I have had an over-supply since the beginning. Never had much trouble pumping but I didn't do it often because she didn't like frozen milk or take a bottle so I only really pumped if I got a clogged duct or felt to full...or on the rare occasion that she would skip a feeding or I would be out.
Recently she started taking the bottle and even drinking the frozen stuff! DH and I take turns overnight - he does one night, I do the next night. In the past few months when it's his night I wake up in agony, so full and engorged that I can't wait to pump or feed. I would feed her on 1 side and pump from the other and get about 4oz! Recently I was sick, then got AF (my second PP AF which took a while to get here (46 days) and was really heavy). Since then I can hardly get ANYTHING when I pump and I am fearing DD isn't satisfied either. I am trying to build my stash back up but don't want to take from her. I try to pump in the morning after she goes down for her nap. I wait about an hour after I nurse her down. This morning I barely got an ounce. Yesterday morning I was better - about 3oz but that was because DH was on that night so I missed 1 feeding. I am just struggling here! I don't even feel like my pump is strong enough but it hasn't changed since I have been using it. It's on full power and I get a good milk stream for the first 30 seconds and then nothing. When I am nursing I feel the same way - DD pops on and off until letdown and then sucks hard for 30 secs to 1 min and is popping on and off again. It's frustrating and painful!
She is growing beautifully though so I can't imagine it's that bad. She had ALWAYS nursed that way - since birth. I think she is just very efficient/no nonsense.
I just can't tell what is going on! I am trying to increase supply but I don't see it working. I increased water and increased nursing sessions which of course leaves me no time to pump but I am just trying to get going. AF left a few days ago. I even had 2 beers on Sunday night (not to increase my supply but it should have helped anyway lol)!
Any tips/advice? When should I be pumping to build a stash and my supply without taking away from her?

The Occupations in Demand tool allows you to find out what jobs are in high demand in each region of the state. The typical wage, long-term employment outlook, training (or degree) required and schools that offer training programs for each occupation are also listed.
Description: Occupations in Demand (OID) lists current career opportunities in a region as determined by regularly updated local labor market data. The OID list for a region is the group of occupations that rank highest on a Current Demand Indicator, which measures short-term demand for jobs locally.
Data sources: The OID Current Demand Indicator is calculated on the basis of the following data sources:
In addition, OID lists also include future occupational outlooks supplied by the Employment Outlook program, wage data from Occupational Employment Statistics, information on the typical training (or degree) required as determined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, and details on related training programs offered around the state. Furthermore, each occupational code is linked to Minnesota-specific career exploration resources online at www.iseek.org/careers/index.html.
How is it used?
How is the data formatted? Viewable data tables that can be sorted by any of the variables displayed. Files are downloadable.
Definitions: Occupations are classified using the U.S. Department of Labor's Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) typology. Only annual salary statistics are presented.
Program notes: Projection information displayed alongside with OID regional lists applies to planning areas. Only three economic development regions coincide with a Planning Area: EDR 3 (corresponding to the Northeast Planning Area), EDR10 (corresponding to the Southeast Planning Area), and EDR11 (Metro Planning Area).
What is OID?
Occupations in Demand (OID) are currently available career opportunities in a local labor market as determined by local labor market data. A demand score blends Job Vacancy Survey (JVS) data, Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) data, and Unemployment Insurance (UI) claims data.
Job vacancies for the Economic Development Region (EDR):
There are thirteen EDRs and six planning regions in the state. A high number of vacancies will increase the occupation's demand score.
Number of existing jobs from Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) in the EDR:
Having a high number of jobs in a given region increases the demand score for that occupation.
Number of UI weeks claimed:
A high number of Unemployment Insurance weekly claims will reduce the occupation's demand score.
Seasonality in the occupation as measured by the Job Vacancy Survey:
A high share of vacancies that are reported as temporary will tend to pull the score down because it indicates seasonality and/or the predominance of short-term job opportunities in the field.
The OID list for a region is the group of occupations that rank highest, given all these factors. Lists are updated on a semi-annual basis for the thirteen Economic Development Regions (EDRs). All Workforce Service Areas (WSAs) fit into an EDR.
Because the statistics are not perfect and to make use of more recent information that the statistics may not take into account, Regional Analysts review lists for their regions and edit them based on local knowledge. For example, a regional analyst may have first-hand knowledge of a business opening shortly which will result in numerous job opportunities not yet captured by the Job Vacancy Survey.
In addition to the demand score, OID web presentation also include future occupational outlook information supplied by the Employment Projections program, median wage data from OES, and the typical training (or degree) required as determined by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics as well as a link to information on related training programs offered around the state. This information helps the user determine if the job is attractive and what skills or training might be necessary to obtain it.
How is OID Calculated?
OID ranks occupations on the basis of the following variables:
Data Source
Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) 2009
Job Vacancies
Job Vacancy Survey last 4 rounds from Q2 2008 to Q4 2009
Unemployment Insurance Weeks Claimed (not initial but continued claims)
Unemployment Insurance administrative data from 2009 to 2010.
Seasonality expressed as:
Vacancies reported as Temporary or Seasonal
Job Vacancy Survey last 4 rounds from Q2 2008 to Q4 2009
EMPshare + JVshare - UIshare – SEASONshare
-Employment Share for an individual occupation is the occupation's share of total EDR employment
-EDR JV Share for an individual occupation represents the occupation's vacancies as a share of all vacancies reported within the EDR over the last two years.
-UI Share for an individual occupation is the occupation's share of total weeks of Unemployment Insurance claimed in the EDR over the last two years.
-Seasonality Share has been calculated as follows:
Occupation's % seasonality * Occupation's EDR employment share
This score is preceded by a minus sign because it is used to reduce an occupation's short-term demand based on the level of seasonality within that occupation.
More about the data: Additional information about the OID program can be addressed to the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development at 651-259-7392 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Reviving Socks: A Design Contest
Have you noticed the absence of socks here at Exercise Before Knitting? In 2007, I made 13 pairs of socks. In 2008, I made 10 pairs. In 2009? Zero. Truth be told, I am over socks. Or was, at least. I have been darning socks like mad lately. If I do not knit a couple of pairs of socks this year, I might have to resort to store-bought socks next winter.
I'll let that sink in for a minute.
Store-bought socks.
Clearly, it is time for a knitterly intervention. While there are many excellent sock patterns out there, I am looking for something special to lure me back to knitting socks. Please allow me to elaborate.
Back in the day, when the KBC crew first met in Philadelphia, we decided to swap cowls.
(Photo by Caro Sheridan)
Several of us designed our own cowls for the swap and later published the designs for public consumption:
The next fall, we met in Boston and swapped mittens.
Again, some really cool patterns came out of the event:
- FlintKnits' Elinor's Mittens
- KnitterlyThings' Chevron Mittens
- Pepperknit's Merion Mittens
- My Vespergyle Mittens
I really enjoy seeing these patterns, born of knitterly friendship, still queued up and knitted! I love that commanding a dozen people to make the same accessory resulted in such a wide variety of colors, patterns, and styles. I think this combination of creative spirit and crafty fellowship would bring back my interest in sock knitting.
This is where you come in.
I am proposing a sock pattern design contest to reinvigorate wayward sock knitters like me. Design and publish your own pattern, enter the contest, and inspire away! You retain all the rights to the patterns you design. Offer your work for free or for purchase, I just ask that you make it available online somewhere. How does that sound?
The Rules
- One entry per person.
- The aim of this contest is to encourage new work. Only previously unpublished, original patterns please. For the sake of clarity, let's say this means patterns should be published between March 1st and May 21st of this year.
- All patterns must be available (for free or for charge) on the internet.
- Each pattern must include at least two adult sizes.
- Stitch gauge must be between 7 and 10 stitches per inch.
- Yarn must be sport, fingering, or lace- weight.
- Fiber content must not be more than 30% acrylic. Entries with higher acrylic content will be disqualified for exceptionally poor taste.
How to enter
- Fill out all required fields of the entry form and submit. Entries will be accepted until 8 p.m. EST on **Friday, May 21st**. Although designs may be submitted at any time during these six weeks, designers will be allowed to edit entries up until the closing date and time of the contest.
- Add at least one (but not more than two) photos of your finished socks to the public Flickr pool by the contest deadline. Instructions on how to do this can be found on the entry form.
Entries without either a completed form or photos in the pool will not be considered. Many thanks to Aaron, the resident programmer at Exercise Before Knitting, for writing the entry/voting software to make this contest both easy to enter and painless to manage.
Prize baskets will be given to the top five pattern designers. Each basket will include some sock yarn, needles, a yarn shop gift certificate, and some baked goods made by yours truly (and I take requests). However, because there are so many wonderful sponsors, no prize basket will be the same. Just as this contest involves many designers and knit bloggers as judges, the awards also reflect a diverse community of yarn shops, needle and yarn companies, independent dyers and craftsters. There will be gift certificates from Simply Socks Yarn Company, sock knitting-sized Addi Natura DPNs and Addi Turbo and Addi Lace circular needles from Skacel, a sock project box bag and purse from Splityarn, and sock yarn from Dream in Color, Fleece Artist, Hazel Knits, Mama Blue Knitting Goods, North Loop Yarn, The Plucky Knitter, Spud & Chloë, and Sundara Yarn.
What You Get
- A chance to win great yarn.
- A copy of the sock pattern I will design for the contest.
- A kick in the pants to publish that cool pattern that has been kicking around in your head for years.
- Free advertising here at Exercise Before Knitting, in the Flickr pool, and in the Socks Revived group on Ravelry.
What I Get
- New, inspiring sock patterns for my Ravelry queue.
- A kick in the pants to publish a sock pattern of my own for all of the entrants.
All entries will be judged by a large panel of knit bloggers and designers. Voting will take place online in two rounds of anonymous balloting. The five winners will be announced Monday, May 23, 2010.
Meet the Judges
The contest judges come from all parts of the internet and hold widely varied opinions on socks. Here are some of them:
|Adrian: "I like a sock with lots of visual interest and interesting knitting, but not at the expense of comfort, fit, and warmth. My favorites either elevate a plain yarn to extraordinary heights of beauty or use a complicated yarn ingeniously."
|Ashley: "I have big feet! So I'm always looking for sock patterns that are either written to accommodate feet bigger than a size 8, or easy to resize. Biggest pet peeve: sock patterns that use "women's" and men's" sizes rather than "small" and "large". My personal preference is for nothing too lacy, but I sure do love cables."
|Caro: "Since my feet are always too hot to wear socks myself, any sock pattern has to keep my interest as a knitter, but not be so challenging that I can't drink manybeers while I'm working on it."
|Christy: "What I look for in socks is a combination of practicality with an interesting or creative element. I wear my socks a lot, so any design element has to be able to cope with that."
|Diana: "While I don't knit many socks (stoopid wool allergy), I love seeing interesting knee-hi socks. If they're made from non-animal fiber, all the better!"
|Elinor: "I am on a quest to find The Perfect Sock. I'm not sure what perfection looks like, but I'll know it when I see it."
|Heather: "I am currently experiencing a severe sock lull and am thus on the lookout for a pattern that will tempt me back into the sock fold. A winning pattern to me is one that is easy to pick up and put down and still know where you are, is not too busy and yet remains mentally engaging. If trip hop were a sock pattern, what would it be?"
|Julia: "I may not knit many socks, but I do know what I like in a handknit sock. Functionality is one thing- don't make me imagine trying to shove bobbles into my boots. I like my socks tall and semi-solid, and loathe pooling."
|Kirsten: "Good design is good design whether it's cables or lace or colorwork. The most important things to me are a balanced design and a comfortable fit."
|Maritza: "I love elegant designs that are simple yet attractive and socks that are inventive in their shaping and use of textures."
|Mary-Heather: "I tend to be very drawn to tradition and history in knitting in general, and I love how beautiful a non-glamorous item like a sock can be; in particular, traditional stranded colorwork makes me swoon!"
|Mary Jane: "I love to knit socks,and have enjoyed years of obsessive sock knitting. I like a sock to be fun and inventive, colorful and comfortable. That said, there is something especially enticing about a plain, demure little sock with just a hint of a challenge."
|Meg: "Living in deep in the heart of Texas means I only knit socks for family and friends in colder climates. While I occasionally long for hours of stockinette in the round, I need something to impress the recipients without too much effort on my part. A pattern with personality, but no drama will top my queue."
|Megan: "For me, there is nothing more perfect than a sock pattern you can knit on auto-pilot but comes off the needles looking like it took a mastermind to create it."
|Minty: "Sock designing was my first love. I love intricate patterns and clever construction, but when it comes right down to it, I only wear my stockinette socks. There's got to be a happy medium out there."
|Nova: "I have, decidedly, fallen out of love with sock knitting and would relish a sock pattern that makes me enthusiastic about knitting socks again. When I knit socks, I preferred to knit them with solid, semi-solid or tonal yarns that allow intricate patterns (be it cable or lace) to really pop."
|Pam: "On one hand, I love to see something complicated and dramatic in a sock pattern: bold colorwork, elaborate stitch patterns, unique construction–things that are fun to look at and fun to knit. On the other hand, feet come in a shocking range of shapes and sizes, so wearability and flexibility are key. If a sock pattern combines those two things? Big win in my book."
|Sarah: "I appreciate intricate patterns and beautifully dyed or spun yarn, but I definitely prefer simple patterns and basic colors. I'll pick a basic, black sock over a technicolor, lacey stocking any day."
|Staci: "Sock knitting is a huge part of my life. Even though I live in Texas, my whole family is in Alaska, and they are spoiled beyond store-bought socks. I am especially fond of toe-up designs, because I like to use every last bit of yarn with no leftovers."

Doesn't this sound like fun??? Start knitting socks!!!
49 comments so far
LOVE this! I have had some ideas brewing for a while and this is just the thing I need to get them into reality. I have never designed anything before, so I'd be starting from scratch. Do I need the pattern test knit before publishing?
Uh-oh. I think I need to knit some socks out of my queue before mid-April, because I suspect I'll be adding a number from your contest! What a wonderful idea!
Love the idea! I'm not ready yet to design socks, but I look forward to seeing everyone's results. Fabulous group of judges! This sounds like so much fun. Yay!
I thought this sounded interesting… until your snide comment about poor taste using acrylic. While it is nice to use something else, some of us don't have all the money in the world to throw at unnecessarily lush and expensive yarns. May you know how lucky you are that you are in the number of elite that have turned knitting from a poor man's necessity into a rich snob's past time.
I'm not a big fan of petroleum-based plastics/acrylics (they're bad for the world and, in my opinion, pretty of crummy to knit with too) AND I knit & live waaay below the poverty line. So I was super excited when I discovered all the 100% wool (and wool/nylon blend, if you prefer) sock yarns out there that actually cost *less* per yard than craft store sock yarns!
As some folks have mentioned, KnitPicks has several: http://knitting-yarn.knitpicks.com/knitting/Sock%20Yarn
And I LOVE Valley Yarns Huntington (http://www.yarn.com/webs-knitting-crochet-yarns-valley-yarns/webs-knitting-yarns-valley-yarns-huntington/) and Franklin (http://www.yarn.com/webs-knitting-crochet-yarns-valley-yarns/webs-knitting-yarns-valley-yarns-franklin-cones/)
This is going to be such a great contest, so exciting! Lindsay luckily there are places like Knitpicks that carry yarns that aren't expensive at all but are fantastic nonetheless:)
That's an awesome idea. Sadly, I've never designed a pattern, and I'm rather intimidated by the concept. I look forward to checking out the nominees, though!
Lindsay, I'm sure Elinor didn't put the acrylic stipulation in there to be a yarn snob. Knitpicks has plenty of sock yarn that's mostly wool and very economical. If she's anything like me, she might just prefer wool and natural fibres over man-made petroleum products.
I'm so stoked about this contest!
Lindsay, you took snide to a whole new level here. It's Elinor's contest, Elinor's rules, and Elinor's joke about acrylic that you decided to turn an opportunity to call people names. There are PLENTY of very affordable non-acrylic yarns out there. (Knitpicks, for instance.) Elinor generously spent quite a bit of time putting together a contest and arranging prizes and judges for it. Calling her an elite, snide snob is rude and unnecessary. Hope she blocks you.
Dude, what a pool of judges! I dislike both designing & knitting socks, so I'll be watching from the sidelines, but I can't wait to see what comes out of this!
This is a fantastic idea, Elinor–I can't wait to see the designs come flooding in!
I'm starting to regret my judge status–suddenly sock ideas are swirling in my head!!
I can't wait to see the patterns this brings in! Thanks for putting this together, E!
Wish I had the chops to design something, but I'll enjoy seeing what others come up with. What fun!
what an excellent idea!! i wish i had the extra time to join in but i will definitely be watching this one closely!
lindsay, high acrylic content sock yarn is gross because IT MAKES YOUR FEET SWEAT AND STINK. yes, it's true. go wool!
Elinor, this is so fantastic. I cannot wait to see the entries. And for those of us who can't knit in wool, Panda Cotton and Kollage Luscious are wonderful (acrylic free!) sock yarns.
Yo, I'm in. If I can scrape together enough hours to write something up. You know how it goes … but I'm inspired!
Well, I am not quite ready to start designing socks yet since I am only now making my second pair. But I can't wait to see the creative ideas that are generated!
I hear you, Elinor! I've been knitting socks, but they've only been stockinette recently. I probably won't have time to compete (hello, I'm an intern teacher), but it will be fun to see the competitors!
Elinor, this is a great idea and thank you for putting it all together. I think your specifications about fiber are perfectly reasonable and I hope you're not giving a second thought to the rude comment above.
You rock, lady.
Oooh, Elinor, what an awesome idea! I too have kind of lost my love for socks. I may have to noodle this a bit … April 19th, huh?
Also, I'd like to say that perhaps even more than the VERY generous prizes you are offering what may prompt me to give this a go is Heather's query: "If trip-hop were a sock pattern, what would it be?" I'm going to dig out my Portishead CDs.
This is awesome, Elinor!! I've lost my sock mojo too, so this is totally timely!!
I've never been one for designing socks but I might give it a go for this contest – if simply to see if I can do it!
Damn, Elinor. I'm waaay behind on my blog reading (as in, like 15 months, ahem) and holy god I have obviously missed a lot over here. You have been churning out the knits! I am super impressed. Also inspired. I've never given much thought to my own sock designs, but your contest is the perfect reason to give it a go.
Wow! What a great idea. I'm up to my eyes in knitting right now but would love to lurk. Are non-designers allowed to join the ravelry group and peek at the Flickr group? I sure hope so!
I can't wait to see the creativity that contest produces. It's going to be tons of fun!

Sounds like fun. Can an Australian knitter enter the contest?
Okay, so say there were some brand-new indie-designed socks coming out in the new Knitty (mid-March). Would they be eligible? They haven't been seen anywhere and will be available free on the internet within the dates of the contest.
Could I submit a pattern that is based on socks I designed and knit prior to 3/1/10? The pattern doesn't exist now, just a chart that I created and used to knit the socks.

"That was kind of tough," he said just before the show began. "Everyone I mentioned it to, everybody (wanted to know what happened). Especially family. They're like, 'I'm your cousin, family first.' They kept trying to guilt trip me about it, but I just had to keep my mouth shut."
Carpenter, who recently moved to Weston Ranch, watched the show while being bombarded with Facebook and Twitter messages along with his great-uncle Mike Davis and his mother, Michele Sherman, who was in the audience while Carpenter traded jokes with show host Wayne Brady.
Until its 9 a.m. air time, Sherman and her mother were the only two family members who knew Carpenter not only won a new Chevrolet Spark car worth more than $12,000, but traded the car for a shot at the Big Deal — the show's grand prize, hidden behind one of three curtains.
While Carpenter didn't take home the show's big-ticket trip to the South Pacific, his prize of a dishwasher, stove, refrigerator and several other new kitchen appliances worth $8,000 came at the perfect time.
The dishwasher gave out as soon as the family returned home from the trip to Los Angeles.
"Everything happens for a reason," Carpenter said Tuesday. "The dishwasher's still not working."
The third time was the charm for Carpenter, who plans to study performing arts at Las Positas College. He, his mother and grandmother sat through the filming of two shows Jan. 17 before the producers told him to come back one more time.
Carpenter convinced his mother to stay in Los Angeles one more day so he could appear on the show.
"My great-grandmother used to watch it every single morning, and I just wasn't old enough to go on the show," he said. "I finally turned 18 and had some time off from school, I told my mom we haven't been to L.A. in a while to visit any family, and while we're down there let's go on 'The Price is Right' and 'Let's Make a Deal.'"
Wearing a neon-yellow checked leisure suit, wide-collared white-and-black shirt and a black wig and pants so tight they ripped the first day he visited the set, Carpenter won his first game with Brady, who offered him a choice between $1,300 and curtain No. 2.
Carpenter went with the curtain even though his grandmother, sitting in the audience, told him to take the money.
"Originally, (Shakeel) said if he was going to get $1,000 he was going to take it, so it's different once you get there," Sherman said. "Then he said, I'm going there to win a car."
But once he had the car, Carpenter changed his mind again.
For one, he said the ultra-compact Spark was too small. Besides, Carpenter had a better idea, which he explained to Brady before again choosing curtain No. 2.
"I knew it was a win-win situation with this one, and my mom and my grandmother have done a lot for me, and I never had a dad in my life, so whatever it is, I would love to give them something back," he said. "So if it's a trip, or I get a car again, or whatever it is, I'll be grateful for whatever I have."
