A Great Way to Get & Stay in Shape
There's no doubt about it: walking is the safest, simplest form of exercise that can help you trim your waistline and improve your health. The problem is, sore, tired, achy feet can keep you on the couch. That's where Thorlos clinically-tested padded socks (CTPS) for walking can help. They're specially designed for walking, with padding clinically shown to help protect your feet from blisters, pain and soreness, as well as the pressures and moisture that can cause other serious foot conditions. The result: feet that are protected, profoundly comfortable and ready to go walking tomorrow.
"I wear orthotics and my feet need to be cushioned. These socks don't bunch up and keep the sock smooth so the bottom of my feet don't get sore." Kathy G.
So it becomes easy to take a brisk half-hour walk five days a week, which is all you need to meet US national physical activity guidelines. Do more—more time, more distance, more intensity—and the benefits to your heart, cholesterol levels, blood pressure, weight and mood increase exponentially.
"Love my new magic socks! Like walking on air and they stay put, too. No sliding down into my shoes." Gaye P.
Thorlos CTPS—Activity-Specific, Uniquely Designed
|While incorporating Thorlos hallmark ball-and-heel padding, Thorlos clinically-tested padded walking socks are lighter in weight to make your walks effortless. These incredibly comfortable socks also have a unique feature: added spandex in the arch for support and a lace pad on the top of the sock to protect against "lace bite"—the pain and irritation caused by laces cutting into your foot.
|Women who are into distance walking will want to try our most protective walking sock, the DWMXW, made with our proprietary THORLON yarn. These socks have a compelling story behind them. Originally, they were designed specifically to meet the needs of women committed to participating in the Breast Cancer 3-Day, a 60-mile walk benefiting Susan G. Komen for the Cure and the National Philanthropic Trust (the event is now known as Susan G. Komen 3-Day). Learn more about our Breast Cancer Donation Program.
Our design philosophy is all about protection from the shearing forces that cause blisters and from the pounding and impact that cause general soreness and foot fatigue, If 3-Day walkers wore Thorlos, we reasoned, they would enjoy their training more and, as a result, they would be more prepared to enjoy the special experience of walking with thousands of new friends. So the THORLO Company not only became an official sponsor of the event, we designed a new padded sock for distance walking and named it HEROs®in honor of the women who have battled and are battling breast cancer and the women who will wear them while they walk for the cause.
We also offer high-protection, moderate-cushion unisex styles made with THORLON: WX, WMX, WMM.
"I just finished walking in my third 3-day, 60-mile walk for breast cancer. This is also my third year wearing Thorlos WMM socks. They are like heaven on my feet! I couldn't have made it without these socks." Tonya M.
Curious but not yet convinced whether Thorlos CTPS can help you address your foot pain? We invite you to try your first pair free…just paying shipping and handling.

Thorlos Lite Padded Performance Socks
If you don't experience pain during or after walking and prefer padded socks with both maximum comfort and an even lighter weight, try our Lite padded socks. Choose from four different styles, all made with THOR•WICK®COOL.
- Men's Thorlos Thin Padded Walking (LWXM, LWMXM): Features Lite engineered padding in the ball and heel as well as lace pad to protect against shear and impact forces common in walking.
- Women's Thorlos Thin Padded Walking (LWXW, LWMXW): Features Lite engineered padding in the ball and heel as well as lace pad with a smaller heel cup and toe box to accommodate the anatomical differences in a women's foot for an optimum fit.
- Everyday Walker (EWH): Just like our LWMXW but with pink ball and heel pads to signal your support for the fight against breast cancer.
- Experia®: Features a lighter, more sculpted version of our engineered padding in the ball and heel to protect against shear and impact forces. Experia provides more protection and comfort than regular thin cushion socks.
Longer Walks, More Enjoyment
The benefits of walking go beyond physical health. Regular walks at a more leisurely pace allow you to decompress and contemplate, especially if you're walking in nature. Walking is also a terrific social activity—easy to do with family, friends and pets! Thorlos padded walking socks will keep your feet off your mind, allowing you to walk longer while enjoying the environment and the camaraderie.
"These socks are unbelievable. I no longer have friction in areas that used to make me sore or create blisters."George L.
Our Brand Promise to You
Try Thorlos walking socks today. Your feet will feel better or your money back®!
"Purchased them specifically because I was going to spend three consecutive days in Disneyworld with my daughter and granddaughter. My feet say 'thank you.'" Eileen L.
Employee Favorite
"My feet used to hurt or get hot after a long walk when I wore ordinary socks. Since I've been wearing Thorlos clinically-tested walking mini crew socks, my feet no longer hurt! Thorlos provide sufficient padding, comfort and protection, but not too much bulk. They also keep my feet dryer and cool, which I like." David McBride, Marketing

Style: XCCU
These socks were bought for a gift.
05/29/16 | By Vida nancy B.
My cousin absolutely loved these socks. She said that they "rock".
Long distance walking must haves
05/28/16 | By Pegi O.
These socks are great for the long distance training needed for participating the the SGK 3-Day walk!! Buy you sneakers a half size up thought because they are thick!!
Cushy socks
05/27/16 | By David G.
My feet love these socks. I have heel pain and they do provide much better cushioning than any other socks I've tried.
Perfect for walking or running
05/26/16 | By Cheryl C.
Wearing my everyday socks while walking left my feet tender and sore (I do about five miles a day). These socks cushion and protect my feet. I have happy feet again! Also, these socks are durable. I still have a pair of Thorlo socks I bought 20 years ago. They've kept their shape and haven't worn thin yet!
Great socks
05/25/16 | By Charlotte F.

Style: XCCU
Great walking socks.
05/25/16 | By Charlotte F.
Love these socks
Good socks but a little too heavy .
05/25/16 | By Rita P.
I have return the walking socks for some lighter weight and some color.
Great for Walking Long Distance
05/25/16 | By Kittie C.
I love the cushion and support these socks provide for me. So much so that I now own four pair. I have recommended these socks to all of my Fitbit walking buddies.
Sizing needs to be changed
05/25/16 | By Linda G.
With my normal size (8.5) they are too short and pull on my toes. You need to make them with more length for that size .
Good cushion for walking and working
05/24/16 | By Lila R.
I only have one pair so I have not worn them a lot, they are very comfortable and cushion my feet which experience pain quite often. I have always like the Thorlo product.

July 3rd - Laura Rain
From Laura Rain's website:
Gone are Nathaniel Mayer and Nolan Strong, Jackie Wilson and Darrell Banks, The Falcons and The Ohio Untouchables. Andre Williams resides in Chicago, Bettye LaVette in New Jersey. Fortune, Lu Pine, Groovesville, Impact, Ric-Tic, D-Town, Inferno, Hot Wax, Groove City Records, and so many more are but memories; Motown moved to California decades ago. Ye who abandoned all hope for Motor City rhythm and blues, enter here: Laura Rain and the Caesars are reclaiming the storied Detroit soul music legacy from the ravages of time, neglect, and electronic dance music.
The Caesars are veterans of the Motor City's R&B, jazz, rock, and blues scenes. For more than a decade, the classically trained Laura Rain has been singing in Detroit and Los Angeles with an absolute freedom of expression, permitted by her wondrous voice, an instrument of infinite shadings in timbre that avails itself to effortless glides between registers. Often compared to Aretha Franklin, Rains's fire, feeling, and expressiveness are all her own. Producer, co-writer, and guitarist George Friend, another Detroiter returned home from L.A., has made his mark in multiple genres–rockabilly (Robert Gordon), R&B (The Sun Messengers), and blues (Janiva Magness)–and released a hip solo album of West Coast blues, Looka Here!, in 2004. Phil Hale has played keyboards for everyone from Martha Reeves to George Clinton, Stanley Jordan, Bettye LaVette, and James Carter. Drummer Ron Pangborn, an original member of Was (Not Was), lays down beats that are perfectly fitted to the Caesars' retro-modern soul and blues.
Tom Hyslop of Blues Music Magazine says Laura Rain is "a force of nature...While clearly informed and inspired by soul and R&B styles dating, roughly speaking, from the years between 1965 and 1985, Electrified is vital music for these times." Blues Junction's David Mac calls Electrified "a super charged soul shot that generates enough energy to light a small town and ignite a fire under the ass of all of its inhabitants." Reflecting a bygone era when songcraft and spine-tingling vocals outranked guitar solos, Laura Rain and the Caesars have waxed a superb album that falls squarely in the tradition of great soul music, and raised the bar significantly for their peers in today's blues scene.
in 2013, Laura Rain and the Caesars have been featured at the Anti Freeze Blues Fest, Tawas Blues By the Bay, Brighton Smokin' Jazz and Blues Barbecue, Marquette Area Blues Festival, Mackinac Island Music Festival and in clubs from Detroit to Los Angeles.

King County is making badly needed organic changes to its spending habits. More reforms related to employee contracts and labor practices are needed.
IN a year of monumentally bad news for state and local governments everywhere, King County budgeteers have a strange half-smile on their faces. Something went right at the county — not by luck, but by hard work and propitious timing.
The county has been trying to get a grasp on health-care costs. What government isn't? A couple of programs begun years ago started paying off, enough so Executive Dow Constantine did not have to cut general services this year, although his budget does trim the county road fund.
One program, Healthy Incentives, pushes, cajoles and charges more for health care to employees living unhealthy lifestyles. This and other health-care efforts produced savings of $61 million for two years.
Those real dollars preserve programs in the general-fund budget (and other county funds), saving services that deal with domestic violence and sexual assault. For the first time in five years, the county does not have to do across-the-board cuts in the general fund.
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Reed brother led detectives to bodies believed to be Arlington couple
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
- Your vote counts so little in Tuesday's primary election, John Oliver joked about it on 'Last Week Tonight'
Most Read Stories
Constantine gets it: "The time of plenty is not coming back." Not only that, because of annexations, the number of residents for whom the county is the local government-service provider has shrunk.
The county still has to take bold steps to become sustainable long term, including notable changes in employee contracts.
For example, the sheriff's deputies are now inexplicably in the fourth year of a 5-percent annual increase. When the contract comes up for renewal, deputies should be zeroed out for increases. Someone with a sharp eye also should scrub the bus drivers contract, which historically was too generous. Some key changes were made for the current three-year contract.
The county has been collecting about 3 percent more revenue each year than the previous year, but costs increase by 6 percent.
Constantine is committed to reinventing and right-sizing county government with a series of cost-cutting and prudent budget efforts. For one thing, he put additional money in reserve to shore up the county's AAA credit rating. He set aside what he described as a one-time $1 million allocation for human services to buffer other jurisdictions' cuts. That's humane but won't work long term.
The county is making badly needed organic changes. More reforms related to employee contracts and labor practices and all-around new approaches are needed.

Shah Rukh Khan is considered the 'king of romance' in Bollywood, but unlike many who believe that romancing on screen is about chemistry, the superstar says it is all about comfort.
The 47-year-old, who has delivered hit romantic movies with actresses like Kajol, Rani Mukerji and Kareena Kapoor, says romance is more than just songs.
"Romance is not just about songs. Comfort is needed when you do romantic films. For me it's not about chemistry, it's about comfort. It's really difficult to look into a girl's eyes and say 'I love you' and then say the same thing to another girl," Shah Rukh said at a press conference here Sunday.
"When you get a chance to romance such beautiful girls, then work becomes easy," he added.
In his latest film "Jab Tak Hai Jaan", releasing Tuesday, Shah Rukh will be seen with two leading ladies - Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. The movie, directed by late filmmaker Yash Chopra, is said to be a love triangle.

Good Old Games sure pulled a fast one on journalists and all of its members. While the publicity stunt – that they were shutting gog.com down because it couldn't go on the way it was – was clever and generated a lot buzz, I wonder if there will be some ill feelings from subscribers who were saddened and scared at the prospect of losing all their games.. You can watch the awkward video the site's owners posted today.
The silver lining – if there is one here – is that when the site re-launches on Thursday it will be vastly improved, and Baldur's Gate will soon be available for sale DRM-free. That's something.

A season that started with such promise ended with a whisper. Literally.
Lance Stephenson's sweet nothings whispered into the ear of LeBron James seemed to be a final futile act of desperation in a rocky Pacer melodrama that was the most torturous in memory.
This team was good enough. In the end, though, the gulf between October potential and May reality was deep and wide.
What may be most disappointing is not that Indiana lost the Eastern Conference Finals to Miami yet again, it is that it lost its class and dignity in the process. Whining about calls, flopping like bluegill, blowing into opponents' ears — this is not Pacers basketball. What happened to blue collar/gold swagger? This was a complete breakdown.
Unlike last year's game 7 loss to the Heat, there is little to feel good about. Indiana labored all year to get a homecourt advantage for this Game 7. In the end, they didn't even get to play it.
This is not a "wait til next year" moment. Does anyone really want a repeat of what we just saw?
So, we begin the postseason autopsy. What went wrong and how can it be fixed? There is plenty of blame to go around and even more thoughts on what to do next.
This is where you come in. If you were in charge, what would you do? Answer these questions to get started.
Q. 1 The biggest single reason for the Pacers' failure to advance to the NBA Championship is:
a. The disappearance of all-Star center Roy Hibbert;
b. A $26 million bench that underperformed;
c. Lance Stephenson's immaturity;
d. Coach Frank Vogel's failure to make adjustments.
Q. 2 Point guard George Hill is:
a. A quality NBA point guard that meets the team's needs;
b. A good local kid who has reached his potential;
c. Not a player who can take Indiana to the next level;
d. A capable second-unit player at best.
Q. 3 The one person who is untouchable in any revamp of the team is:
a. Paul George;
b. David West;
c. Lance Stephenson;
d. No one is untouchable.
Q. 4 Regarding soon-to-be free agent Lance Stephenson, the Pacers should:
a. Pay what it takes to keep him;
b. Pay up to $10 million a year;
c. Release him;
d. Defer to what his teammates privately suggest.
Q. 5 The biggest blame for this season's underachievement goes to:
a. The starters for failing to handle the expectations;
b. The bench for failing to provide support;
c. Coach Vogel for failing to require accountability;
d. President Larry Bird for a number of unproductive trades.
There is no answer key here. Right and wrong are relative. The only thing certain is that change will occur. How substantial remains to be seen. Is this a team a tweak or two away from a title run or one whose fatal flaws require a complete overhaul?
With no first round pick (traded for Luis Scola) and little cap room (unless Stephenson is jettisoned), a summer when many Pacer fans expected to celebrate a NBA championship has turned into one filled with more questions than answers.
A season that started with a roar goes out with a whisper.

I'm going to simplify things and assume that every Major League Baseball player doing well is using performance-enhancing drugs.
Then I'm going to assume that every Major League Baseball player doing poorly had been using performance-enhancing drugs but stopped.
Then I'm going to assume that those in between are considering using performance-enhancing drugs.
It's for the best, really, now that it is clear again that baseball is the Tour de France but with baggier clothing. Like that once-legitimate bicycle race, the risk analysis performed in the brains of the athletes assures they will use steroids, growth hormone or whatever the kids are using these days.
No amount of embarrassment, no amount of shame, no level of chagrin for disappointing teammates and fans is too much to outweigh a six-year contract worth $100 million or so. Minor suspensions don't cost enough to make the risk too risky.
This might seem unfair to the seven or eight guys who aren't using. But, as I said, assuming everyone is using saves time.
Not that I don't want to believe. It is just that so far the players who aren't cheating sound exactly like the players who are cheating. Both deny involvement with equal vigor, both say they are victims of guilt by association, both get equally resentful that anyone wouldn't believe their exploits are the result of God-given talent, hard work and broccoli.
The height of hypocrisy
If you look back at the statements of Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Ryan Braun, you'll see a classic illustration of this. Braun tested positive during the 2011 playoffs, but an arbitrator tossed out the test because his sample had not been properly handled. In the meantime, he was awarded the National League Most Valuable Player trophy.
He got off on a technicality, yet Braun treated it like redemption.
"I truly believe in my heart and would bet my life that this substance never entered my body at any point," he said at the beginning of spring training in 2012. "Today is all about everyone who has been wrongly accused and everybody who has had to step up for what is actually right."
Players, Braun complained, are considered guilty until proved innocent.
"I've tried to handle the entire situation with honor, with class, with integrity, with dignity, and with professionalism because that's who I am and that's how I've always lived my life."
Last week — not long before Alex Rodriguez was suspended for 15 months — we learned that Braun had it wrong. Actually, it turns out, he was considered guilty until he could be proved guilty. When confronted with evidence against him, Braun accepted a suspension for the rest of the season.
"I realize now that I have made some mistakes," he said. He will lose a few million of his five-year, $105 million contract and be back next spring.
So, yeah, I think I'm going to consider players guilty until proved innocent, because what are the odds of that? Again, unfair. But they do, at some level, bring it upon themselves.
The players union has resisted drug testing and punishments for years because that's what it does and that's what the players wanted it to do. Only when the public got sick of it and sided with the owners, only when the feds threatened to get involved, did the union begin to bend.
Now, only if the members of the union, the players, take the lead in cleaning up the sport will it happen.
Until then, I'll assume most players are using. And with each revelation (such as Monday's suspension of Rodriguez and 12 others), I will be proved right.
In the meantime, maybe baseball and the players union could just release the results of players who pass their drug tests. It'll save time and they can announce it to great fanfare shortly before these clean players are sent down to the minor leagues for failing to perform as well as everyone else.

what do you use and how do you manage them?
I mostly use paper towels but they add up. I started using old towels and washcloths so now i have to plan a special wash just for them. I left one outside by accident and it it looks cleaner but it's frozen like a rock. Paper towels are great for the chain, and small thin towels and cloths are good for the rear free wheels. seems like either are OK for the main tubes finish and polishing.
