The Boreal Forest © Greenpeace
Greenpeace is dedicated to the conservation of Canada's largest ecosystem, the Boreal Forest. Our first priority is a healthy Boreal Forest which supports viable economies and communities. Representing more than half of Canada's landmass, the Boreal Forest sustains countless plants and animals and plays a critical role in mitigating global climate change. The Boreal holds some of the highest quantities of terrestrial carbon in the world – an estimated 208 billion tones. It is also the source of life and culture for many Indigenous communities. Yet many areas of the Boreal Forest are under threat by destructive logging practices.
Greenpeace has identified five "Endangered Forest" areas that are amongst the most valuable intact wilderness left in Canada's commercial forest. Unfortunately, companies like Resolute Forest Products are logging in some of these forests and destroying critical caribou habitat. Resolute is currently suing Greenpeace for $7 million to divert your attention from its destructive practices. But Greenpeace is standing up for the forest and won't be silenced by this lawsuit.
Currently, only 8 per cent of Canada's forest area is protected by legislation. A comprehensive network of protected areas is vital to conserve the Boreal Forest for future generations.
Learn more about logging company Resolute's lawsuits to silence the Greenpeace campaign to protect the Canadian Boreal forest.

Samsung's Rumored Galaxy S7 Active Could Launch With AT&T on June 10
Samsung's Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge smartphones have been selling well since they debuted in March, but a ruggedized version of them, which had been part of the previous Galaxy S6 series, has never shown up.
That could change in June when Samsung is reportedly going to unveil a ruggedized version of the S7 series, the Galaxy S7 Active, with mobile carrier AT&T, according to a May 23 story by VentureBeat.
The new handset, which will be similar to the earlier Galaxy S6 Active rugged phone that launched in 2015, could appear on June 10 with AT&T, based on notations in several renderings that were leaked, the story reported. Many of the specifications of the rumored S7 Active are the same as the S7 and S7 Edge models that are already for sale, according to a purported handset specification sheet that was seen by VentureBeat.
The upcoming S7 Active is slightly larger than the 2015 S6 Active, the story reported, due primarily to a larger, more powerful 4,000mAh battery, which replaces a smaller 3,500mAh unit that was in the earlier phone. An earlier rumor that the latest handset would have a larger display screen were apparently incorrect, since the new model will have the same 5.1-inch, 1,440-by-2,560-pixel Super AMOLED display that is used in the Galaxy S7 and in the earlier Galaxy S6 Active.
Reports have been circulating for months that a ruggedized version of the Galaxy S7 is on the way. A new report says it will happen soon.
New to the S7 Active will be a microSD slot, which was missing from the S6 Galaxy models, as well as a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 system-on-chip, 4GB of RAM—up 1GB from the S6 Active—and 32GB of internal storage, according to the story. The new smartphone will run the Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. Also to be included is a 12-megapixel rear-facing camera that features the same low-light enhancing dual pixel sensor used in the Galaxy S7. A 5MP front-facing camera is also included.

Kim Weaver – Candidate For U.S. Representative District 4
Kim Weaver is running for Congress in Iowa's 4th Congressional District and has a proven track record of advocating for Iowans in the District.
She was born in Des Moines, graduated from Roosevelt High School and obtained her Bachelors in Communications from Iowa State University. After college she married and later moved to Sheldon where she raised her three children and built her career. In 2003 Kim and her husband separated, but she remained in Sheldon with her three children. During this time, she came to truly appreciate the concern and sense of community she found in her small town. She appreciates the value of community and the belief in hard work that Iowans hold dear and is dedicated to taking those values to Congress.
Kim started her career at Village Northwest in Sheldon, which is a wonderful organization that strives to provide purpose, privacy, and dignity to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As a direct care provider, she was fortunate that she could work nights and weekends, so her small children would be home with either their mom or dad.
In 1996 she accepted a position as a Targeted Medicaid Case Manager with the Department of Human Services. During her ten years in that position, she helped to ensure that individuals with serious mental health concerns received appropriate care and that young children with disabilities were able to remain in their family home.
In 2007 she began working for the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman as an advocate for seniors in nursing homes, assisted living programs, and residential care facilities. She oversees a large territory that includes fifteen counties and 124 care providers in Northwest Iowa. Every day she works to protect the health, safety, and rights of individuals residing in long-term care facilities, advocating for what they want and giving a voice to the seniors and their families. Kim's work has only strengthened her belief that we need to protect Social Security, expand Medicare, and make seniors a priority.

Patty Judge – Candidate for U. S. Senator
Patty was first elected to the Iowa State Senate in 1992, where she represented southern Iowa and served as the ranking member on the Senate Agriculture Committee. During her two terms in the Iowa Senate, Patty worked to build consensus on important legislation to create new opportunities for the state.
In 1998, Patty became the first and only woman to be elected Iowa's Secretary of Agriculture. During her eight years in this position, she worked tirelessly to promote renewable fuels and support Iowa's ethanol and biodiesel industries. Today, renewable energy has become an integral part of Iowa's economy – creating new jobs and reducing our reliance on foreign oil and fossil fuels.
Patty was elected Lieutenant Governor of Iowa in 2006, serving in that position for four years. During her term in office she served as the Governor's Homeland Security Advisor. In this role, she was instrumental in coordinating critical response operations during the floods of 2008 and nine other Presidentially declared disasters. Following the floods of 2008, Patty served as the first director of the Rebuild Iowa Office as it worked to rebuild homes and businesses on the way to recovery in flood affected communities.
Patty and her family have owned a cow/calf farm in Monroe County for over 40 years. In addition to the farming operation, Patty is also a former Registered Nurse, and has many years of experience in the health care field, including public health. Patty has also owned and operated her own small business, selling and appraising real estate. During the farm crisis of the 1980s, she worked as a mediator with hundreds of farm families and creditors across the state to find solutions to financial troubles.
A lifelong Iowan, Patty Judge has been dedicated to community service, serving on the Albia Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors, as a 4-H leader, a member of PEO, an honorary FFA Chapter farmer, and a member of the Iowa State Fair Board. She is married to John Judge and has three adult sons and three grandchildren, all of whom still call Iowa home.

text: Would You Trade Performance For Fuel Economy?Matt Hardigree6/13/08 11:40amFiled to: Question of the Dayqotd118EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink We've been harping on about gas prices lately because it is clearly impacting the market. In fact, we wonder if this guy didn't drive his Suburban onto a firing range just to collect the insurance and buy a hybrid (only to find out he can't). Many vehicles come with a choice of engines, offering various levels of power and economy. Would you choose the slower car for better fuel economy? Have you? Personally, we like what Ford is doing with EcoBoost by combining turbocharging and direct-injection to get more power out of smaller engines. While we wait for those cars to start arriving at dealerships, it's worth asking if every vehicle in the garage needs to be the fastest. We're not saying trade down to a fuel-efficient beater, but maybe four cylinders instead of six? Or is that blasphemy? Reply118 repliesLeave a reply

|Win32.small.nns are programs that download and install other malware that can include viruses, worms, spyware, and adware. By connecting to remote computers, they can access and install these files, or Win32.small.nns will sometimes include the required malware within their own files.
|Trojan.downloader-61306 Win32legacy.dloader.plxr
How to manually remove Win32.small.nn guide. Only for ADVANCED users.
Check running processes on your system. Usually you can find Win32.small.nn process running. Use the Ctrl+Shift+Esc buttons combination to open system information window and click Processes tab. Scroll down the whole list and try to find the process named like Win32.small.nn. If you find Win32.small.nn process running, right click on it and choose "End Process". It will disable Win32.small.nn for the current Windows session, but remember that if you do not completely remove Win32.small.nn using next steps, then your PC will stay vulnerable to malware attack. Next steps are much more important in removing Win32.small.nn.
Prevent the malware from leaking or spreading your personal data. Trojan usually uses the Internet to transfer all possible and important information you have. Some Trojans are not so "Active" and they can simply disable some Windows features and options. To disconnect your PC from the Internet you need to plug-off LAN cable (if you use LAN connection) or to turn of the Wi-Fi module (if you use Wi-Fi Internet connection). Most of (not 100%) Trojans can not access Wi-Fi module preferences. Turning off the Internet will disable Win32.small.nn from transferring any data from your PC.
The next step is very important in removing Win32.small.nn. After turning off the Internet and disabling Win32.small.nn process you will need to reboot your PC in so-called Safe Mode. Safe Mode is a Windows mode which allows you to start the System using only important applications and services. Safe Mode does not usually allow Win32.small.nn to load when the system boots (!!!but exceptions can appear!!!). Choose Restart in Windows Start menu and wait until the screen turns off.
After that you have to follow the next instructions according to the versions of Microsoft Windows you use:
Press the F8 key repeatedly when the first screen appears.
Select Safe Mode from Windows Advanced Options Menu and press ENTER.
Press the F8 key repeatedly when the first screen appears.
Use the arrow keys from Windows Advanced Options Menu in order to select Safe Mode and press ENTER.
Press and hold the Shift button when left-clicking the Restart button on Windows log-on screen.
Select Safe Mode from Windows Troubleshooting boot screen and press ENTER.
Having booted your PC in Safe mode you have to start cleaning your PC manually by deleting every file associated with Win32.small.nn one by one. Here is the list of all files associated with Win32.small.nn. Delete all files listed below using the Shift+Delete buttons combination. Always double check the file name as sometimes Trojans use very similar filenames as very important system files do and you can mistakenly remove important system file what will harm your system and you will not be able to boot your PC at all.
Please, remember that viruses are always progressing and sometimes new files can appear. If you are using our offline PDF guide on How to remove Win32.small.nn, please check if you have it's latest version.
We do not guarantee that Win32.small.nn has the same file structure at the moment of deleting.
After removing all files associated with Win32.small.nn that were listed above, reboot your system in normal mode and check if your PC works fine or you still have any troubles.
It it is OK – congratulations! You have made a great job!
If it is still NOT ok – use OSHI Defender to check your PC.

The deepest blue waters
Hugging the ivory coasts
Rainbows of corrals
Plugging the bottoms of boats
From sparkling bays, to
Crystal clear lagoons
Plethera of treasure divers
Searching for gold debloons
Tired of the stream-life
Longing to be free
Just up and left one day
And headed out to sea
The current was strong
The waves were so tough
O boy, for a little fish
I sure got it rough
I am a fish
Just living in the sea
How I wish, to be a bird
So I can fly away
And be free?

Lovely poem.
Glad you like it. Wow, I ask myself, what it must be like to be from a place so beautiful, it is literally known, as paradise. Thank you for taking the time to read and comment and glad you enjoyed. I'm also about to post another one you may like, here in a few minutes, called: What country are you from? Lol. :o)
Loved the visual here. Great work! :)
LOL. I get your writing,(hope you get some of mine?).
Remember even fish get caught and eaten- sadly.
Hope you find the freedom you are longing for in life's journey.
Thank you for your kind words. I do hope so too. I'm searching for that pot of gold, hanging, just somewhere over the rainbow. I'd certainly love to have some of my stuff published, would be one dream obtained, as I saw you have had some done. I don't even know where to begin to start.

Nothing in this life happens by accident
If it wasn't for my tears I wouldn't be able to dry off yours
If it weren't for my anger I wouldn't fight for justice
Where thy kill I heal
Where they separate I restore
Where they envy I praise
Where they fear I love
Where they reject I bring to rest
The only way for truth to be there must be a lie
This is how we need it in our world
But not where we come from simply because we are that truth
We are here to see our true nature
Now understand the meaning of rapture
Everything that is opposite of love is an illusion we can use to see true love
So that's why I have stopped judging
I have not come to hell to take you out
But I have come to see you going out even if I have to stay here after you
Walk ahead and you shall find me at the end of the journey
Dry off your tears, you have never been alone
I am in you as you are in me; this is why we shall never be apart

Freed Reads™ is the world's first sustainable 'natively web-based' book streaming service.
Our unique technology turns your web browser into a fully fledged reading system, all without needing to install an app or download an ebook. This means that you can start reading an entire book immediately, anywhere in the world and on any device of your choosing – all for FREE!
Yes, all the books listed in our catalog are free but our authors still get paid for publishing them with us! We're able to make this possible using a discreet and relevant advert that is displayed at the bottom of the screen while reading each book. These are tastefully executed from a reader's point of view with the adverts running independent from the book itself and never obscure what's being read.
Freed Reads loves reading just as much as you do, so prepare yourself for a glut of amazing books across all genres and suiting all age groups. All our books are reviewed and formatted before they're displayed in our waterfall style catalog and it's as easy as clicking on a title that catches your eye to begin reading.
At Freed Reads, we have 3 types of readers:
Our growing list of features:
The Freed Reads philosophy breaks new ground in the world of books by addressing the common failings of traditional ebooks and their printed counterparts. We focus on delivering a superior overall reading experience while taking advantage of the accessibility, social-media and dynamic advertizing capabilities of a web-based solution. Combine these features together and Freed Reads becomes a powerful marketing tool for authors and publishers.
We offer authors and publishers quick, easy, safe and free ways to publish their books with our web-based book streaming system. With us, our authors and publishers have complete control over their books, while retaining the all the rights to their work with our NON-EXCLUSIVE publishing licence.
See how earnings are calculated and new ways of earning in our FAQ below...
Freed Reads™ is a small Australian company based in Perth, founded by Andy and Megan Futcher, two dedicated bibliophiles with a passion for getting the world reading again.
For more information please see our About Us Page.
Freed Reads is a web-based book streaming service. Our platform is open to all readers, authors and publishers. Books listed with us are available to anyone in the world and can be accessed and read on any digital device, all for free! Authors and publishers have complete control over their work, while retaining their ownership rights.
Book streaming is digital books taken to the next level. Streaming a book gives you the ability to read books in 'real time', instead of downloading a file to your device or installing an app and reading it later. Freed Reads turns your web browser into a complete online reading system which adapts to your screen size. This means that you can start reading an entire book immediately, anywhere in the world and on any device of your choosing, straight from your web browser. To start reading a book from our catalog, all you need to do is click or tap on a book cover of your choosing. From there, you can read at your leisure and when you need to turn a page, either swipe or scroll – we even bookmark the page you're reading automatically for you!
Publishing with Freed Reads is FREE! There are no hidden fees. The only fee we do charge is in the case of authors only having hard copies of their books – the only cost will be them getting their books to us for scanning.
Whether you're a reader or an author signing up for an account with Freed Reads is easy and free. Keeping things simple, we've provided one sign up feature for both readers and authors. Once you've signed up, you will find a user drop down box that gives the following options: 'My List', 'Settings', 'Go Premium', 'Publishing Tools' and 'Sign Out'. To publish with Freed Reads just click the 'Publishing Tools' option and you will be guided through our process step-by-step.
Our founding objectives are to make reading free and accessible to readers all over the world, provide a fair remuneration to authors and publishers and last by not least, promote and encourage the reading of books as a global pastime.
We pay you in US dollars by a direct PayPal deposit, approx 15 days after each quarter. Freed Reads authors and publishers get paid for every page of their book that is legitimately read. Our servers have systems which detect un-readerlike activities.
Freed Reads authors and publishers earn 70% net proceeds from royalties from all in-book advertizing within your books. These earnings are calculated per-page served – the more readers read your books, the more you earn from the advertizing displayed. The proceeds from in-book advertizing are calculated at a flat rate, regardless of who you are, as an author or publisher and where in the world you're located. Freed Reads believes in giving everyone a fair go and we've worked tirelessly to strike a balance between rewarding our authors and publishers fairly for their books while simultaneously empowering our readers.
Furthermore, Freed Reads authors and publishers have the opportunity to earn 70% royalties from our monthly subscribers. This revenue is calculated per-page pro-rata as a fixed-cost substitute for the advertizing revenue.
And finally, readers can leave their favorite authors a tip for a job well done. Authors can also get flattered for their creativity through their Flattr accounts. Authors retain 100% of both these donations and they will be deposited directly into their PayPal accounts.
Each book category earns a particular RPM (revenue per 1000 impressions) from banner advertizing. 70% of the total earnings for that entire category is then divided evenly by the number of pages served when compared to the other authors in the same category. This data is collected by combing our automatic bookmarking system and page serving technology to accurately measure the actual pages "read" by each user.
So What Does This Mean For You?
Our authors will be well remunerated for listing your books with us because our advertizers share a more valuable screen space; with almost no chrome or distractions other than the book itself. Our advertizer telemetry shows that in 1st world countries we are exceeding RPM earnings required to pay authors an equal if not better earning "per-page read" as other book reading Apps & schemes pay-out. This means that authors always earn something from each and every page read; even from the poorest of countries.
Additionally we will be releasing regional data along with the average payout per category for each annual quarterly payment cycle.
No. All our author and publisher contracts are non-exclusive. Our authors and publishers retain 100% ownership rights to their work and are free to publish their work on any additional platform of their choosing. Authors and publisher can also remove their work from Freed Reads at any time should you choose to do so.
Freed Reads believes strongly in giving our authors the ability to protect their work from plagiarism and piracy. Our systems have been uniquely developed so that everything is cloud-based and can't be downloaded or copied. Digital Right Management (DRM) is not a concern for authors with Freed Reads because books are transmitted as images, making it impossible for readers to copy and paste any part of your book.
ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number. It's a 13-digit number that's used to uniquely identify your book among millions. When you submit your book for publishing with Freed Reads there is a section for authors and publishers to insert their ISBNs.
All your books traditional copyrights, ISBNs, dedications and acknowledgements are included in your books page meta-data and readers can access this information via their web-browsers 'page info' window. Additionally readers who like or rate your book are displayed a personalized page with your dedications, donations and any social widgets.
There are two main reasons for this approach; firstly to enhance the readership experience so readers don't have to flick through unnecessary pages before enjoying your content and secondly because authors earnings are calculated from every page that is read. Read more on how our payouts and advertizing is rate-limited to ensure fair compensation for all authors.
The in-book advertizing runs at the bottom of the screen and is never larger than a sixth of the screen space. From a reader's point of view, the advert is independent of the book itself and never obscures the written text. We've also given our readers the ability to 'hide' adverts by temporarily collapsing them using the little 'X' at the top of the displaying advert. Utilizing tailored advertizing channels provided by Google AdSense, Freed Reads delivers and will continue to improve a substantial return on the adverts displayed on each page to our authors and publishers. The type of adverts displayed to our readers are based on geolocation, a book's metadata and the specific genre the book falls into.
Please Note: clicking your own adverts will NOT increase your earnings and could even reduce the payout from the book advertizing channel.
Freed Reads believes that daring to be different reaps its own rewards and we're passionate about supporting anyone who has a story to tell! We support traditionally published authors, indie and self-published authors, and publishing houses – large press, small press, vanity or otherwise. In the fight against piracy and plagiarism, Freed Reads does however, require our authors and publishers to have full rights to the books they wish to publish with us.
Before books are added to our catalog, they're thoroughly reviewed for any major formatting issues by the Freed Reads Team. Once published, our books are optimized purely on the "Reader's Choice" principle - we do not influence your books ranking in any artificial way. We've given our readers the ability to 'Like' books and once they have progressed far enough through a book, readers can give it a star rating! In general books of a higher quality will average a higher position in the waterfall.
The Tear-Out and Share feature gives our readers the ability to safely and easily share a specific page from the book they are currently reading with friends from up-to eight different social media platforms. This helps authors broadcast their work and allows readers to share their experiences with their friends and family. If anyone engages with those social posts they are directed back to your book on Freed Reads.The Tear-Out and Share button is displayed discreetly at the top left corner on every book page. Sharing is as simple as tapping or clicking the icon and then deciding whether you want to share the book cover or a specific page and to which social media site you would like to share it on.
We've developed a unique approach to streaming each individual book page by literally 'rendering' book pages and serving them out to readers on-demand using a format commonly used by billions of websites to draw vector icons. We provide our readers with lossless textual quality, high-definition character integrity and natively supported data-compression. The results of combining all these technologies is a great reading experience, economical bandwidth usage and extremely diverse hardware support – maximizing compatibility and reducing cost of accessibility for each book.
The benefits of our platform are two-fold as traditional text-based websites – and indeed current ebook file formats - carry with them the textual work of each book in it's entirety, ours don't. Because our servers provide per-page vector rendering with no actual copy-able text to speak of, we address the needs of readers and authors simultaneously. The result is Freed Reads provides a much safer methodology with which to transport books over digital mediums and a strong resistance to all forms of plagiarization.

West Bromwich Building Society was last night locked in negotiations with its creditors as it sought to avoid becoming the latest in a string of mutual organisations to fall victim to the financial crisis.
The society, which was last month forced to deny reports it was on the verge of collapse, is hoping to persuade its lenders to convert about £180m of debt into a new financial instrument that would qualify as capital, enabling it to satisfy stress tests imposed upon it by the Financial Services Authority, the chief City regulator.
West Bromwich, the country's eighth largest society, has been in talks with the FSA for weeks over its dwindling capital strength and has also held talks with stronger societies about a merger or takeover.
However, the leading candidate for such a deal, Coventry Building Society, is now understood to have cooled on the idea of rescuing its West Midlands-based neighbour.
If there is no deal to save it, West Bromwich would be forced to turn to the FSA for a rescue solution of the sort seen earlier this year, when the regulator in effect forced the break up of struggling Dunfermline Building Society. Some of its businesses were sold off, while other assets were transferred to the Bank of England's Special Resolution Regime.
Last night, however, West Bromwich, which needs to provide customers with some reassurance by Monday, when it is due to announce its annual results, said it was close to an agreement with its lenders.
West Bromwich said it was "in advanced discussions with holders of the society's subordinated debt to exchange the full outstanding principal amount of the society's subordinated debt, totalling £182.5m, for a new instrument, which will qualify as core tier 1 capital".
Such a deal, which could be unveiled as early as today, would enable West Bromwich to continue operating as an independent society, defying its critics at the eleventh hour.
The society has been forced to take radical action to safeguard its future after adopting a more aggressive business model than many of its rivals. It has a £1.5bn exposure to the crisis-hit commercial property sector, as well as £3.5bn in outstanding buy-to-let mortgages, a sector of the home loan market that is proving more vulnerable to rising arrears and repossessions than any other.
Last autumn, Robert Sharpe, the former chief executive of Portman Building Society, which was sold to Nationwide last year, was brought into West Bromwich to turn the society's fortunes around, though it is still expected to reveal substantial losses on Monday.
Mr Sharpe has attempted to cut costs at West Bromwich, axing about 15 per cent of its 1,000-strong workforce, but that was not enough to prevent Fitch, the credit ratings agency, downgrading its credit status last month. The society has £10bn in assets, 600,000 customers, and almost 50 branches.
West Bromwich has previously denied being in difficulties, claiming it knew nothing of claims the FSA was seeking to broker a rescue deal for it, but has since refused to comment, other than the statement released yesterday.
The FSA itself also refused to comment last night, but the continuing problems in the sector have angered the regulator, which last month sent a spokesman to the industry's annual conference to read it the riot act. The regulator said it had warned building societies "over and over again" about their risky lending practices but "clearly not everyone was taking note".Reuse content

From Outdoor JournalMore on this episode »
The Atlatl and dart, is an ancient weapon used for centuries by native cultures around the globe prior to the use of the bow and arrow. While bow hunting became more widespread, the atlatl still maintained a distinct advantage in certain circumstances. For example, once loaded, the atlatl became a one handed weapon, allowing the other hand free to guide the boat. This made it extremely useful in hunting waterfowl. In fact, the name atlatl is derived from the Aztec word meaning "water thrower". Today, there is a growing interest in atlatls for both sport and hunting. Some local enthusiasts are keeping the tradition of both crafting these unique weapons, and perfecting their unique throwing technique alive.

Carpe diem.
It's a bit surprising to see that Blake Mycoskie repeatedly invokes such a hoary old self-help slogan. But there it is, in foot-high, wooden letters on an upstairs landing at the Los Angeles headquarters of his shoe and accessories company, Toms. There it is again, in a painting on the wall of his office/man cave. And you'll find him repeating it several times in his book, Start Something That Matters.
If there's anyone who can make a case for seizing the day, it's Mycoskie. He has done it repeatedly and successfully over the past seven years, orchestrating Toms's rise into the top flight of fashion and establishing it as a new kind of business. More than any other brand, Toms has integrated old-fashioned, for-profit entrepreneurship with new-wave, bleeding-heart philanthropy, bonding moneymaking and giving in an unprecedented manner. The company has become so closely identified with giving away a pair of shoes to a poor child for every pair sold—Toms has trademarked the tagline "one for one"—that it's often mistaken for a charity. And it has spawned buy-one-give-one copycats offering everything from dog treats to cups of coffee.
This spring, Toms gave away its 10 millionth pair of shoes. "Within the next 18 to 24 months," Mycoskie says, "we expect we'll have given away 10 million more." It now also sells sunglasses—more than 150,000 pairs in the past two years—and in turn has helped deliver eye care to more than 150,000 people. Toms currently donates shoes in 59 countries and eye care in 13. The figures add up to remarkable growth for a remarkable company, one that has put shoes on the feet of many poor children, made its owner a very rich man, and pioneered a much-admired business model. "I had no idea it would ever get this big," says Mycoskie, a 36-year-old Texan whose laid-back, surfer-dude vibe masks the ambition of an entrepreneur who prefers to talk less about the company he has built than of the movement he is building. "Now that we've grown, it's all about: How do you use these resources to do even more?"
Mycoskie says the one-for-one model could involve much more than your feet and your eyes—he envisions a Toms empire that encompasses all sorts of everyday products. But what many of his critics would like him to talk about instead—and what, during two long interviews with Fast Company, he discussed publicly at length for the first time—are Toms's failings on the giving side and its plans to change its ways. You could sum that up with a different Latin phrase: Mea culpa.
There's an old Dutch proverb that says "Shoemaker, stick to thy last"—an admonition to go with what you know. But what if you never knew much about anything, including how to make shoes?
Mycoskie has never been conventional. The son of an orthopedic surgeon and a cookbook author, he confesses that he never graduated from high school (he didn't fulfill his Spanish requirement) but managed to attend Southern Methodist University anyway; he then dropped out after two years as a philosophy and business major. He started a laundry company, a billboard company, and an online driver-training company before he hit upon Toms, and says that he has never known anything about any of the businesses he has gotten into. "When you don't know the rules, you break them all," he tells me when I meet him in his L.A. office in early April. "It's hard to take big risks when you know the history of an industry and what has worked and what didn't."
For several years he lived on a boat, until he got married last summer and his wife, Heather, forced the issue. And while he loves to read business books—John Mackey's Conscious Capitalism is a recent favorite—he also revels in talking about Plato, Socrates, and Kierkegaard and in reflecting on the existential questions of his purpose in life. "Anytime I see a book like that," he says, "I buy it."
The reading can only have helped. Mycoskie is a brilliant storyteller and a charismatic, masterful marketer—one of his staff says that Toms's secret "is Blake's gut"—and in some ways, the Toms genesis story has been the company's most lucrative product. Mycoskie was traveling in Argentina in 2006, playing polo and drinking wine, when he met a woman who was collecting shoes for the poor. Startled that in the 21st century so many kids still needed shoes, he decided to start a shoe company that would give a pair away for every one it sold. His first product: a variation of the traditional Argentine shoe that he brought home from his trip, the rope-soled, canvas-topped alpargata.
With $5,000 saved from his earlier ventures, Mycoskie set up shop in his Venice apartment. It was chaos. Liza Doppelt, the second person Toms hired, recalls that when she arrived for her interview, "I had to physically move dirty laundry from the armchair I was told to sit on." When Garett Awad showed up for his internship interview a couple of months later, he found boxes and shoes everywhere. "It was totally insane," he says, "and I thought, Yes, this is exactly what I want." (Doppelt is now VP of marketing for eyewear, while Awad heads retail marketing.)
Despite the mess behind the scenes, the combination of a slightly exotic yet still approachable shoe and a do-gooder story proved alchemical, establishing the brand's popularity with tastemakers in fashion, lifestyle, and entertainment. Booth Moore, the Los Angeles Times's fashion critic, was the first to write about Toms, in May 2006. Then the editors at Vogue featured Toms in its October 2006 issue, naming legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld as an early-adopting fan.
The shoes themselves did not always work as well as the story. The first pairs of Toms—the name stands for tomorrow's shoes—were made in Argentina, but Mycoskie quickly realized that producing in China would be more cost-effective. As a supply-chain novice, he didn't send anyone to supervise production there. "If you don't show that you care, they assume you don't care," says Jonathan Jung, Toms's first hire. "Every single pair was defective in some way—glue stains, mismatched shoes, insoles that were too big for that shoe." Mycoskie, Jung, and a crew hired via Craigslist worked crazy-long hours to salvage what they could, cleaning stains, matching pairs, pulling out insoles and recutting them to fit. (Jung is now director of supply-chain planning for Toms.)
Another early Mycoskie mistake nearly cost the company its account with Nordstrom, which today is Toms's biggest retailer. "I was adamant I didn't want the environmental waste of cardboard boxes," he says. "I wanted organic linen bags with drawstrings. It meant less money spent on shipping. It was eco-friendly." It was also salesperson-unfriendly. Finding the right sizes amid the messy piles of linen bags took too long, and the drawstrings were forever entangling. Sales tanked. Toms went back to conventional boxes.
For someone who has quickly built a formidable fashion-and-lifestyle brand, Mycoskie has never been much of a fashion guy. His look could be described as sentimental neo-hippie. He always wears a thatch of bracelets and a tangle of necklaces, accessorized by stories; one faded, pinkish woven-fabric strip around his wrist was a gift from a young boy on the first shoe drop in Argentina, while his string of brown prayer beads comes from an Indian ashram he and Heather visited during their honeymoon.
When we went to lunch one day, he wore a blousy, shiftlike top he had picked up in Nepal, shorts in a Native American print that he thought were Polo Ralph Lauren, and a pair of camouflage-print Toms. With his deep tan, untamed mess of curly brown hair, and sometimes-questionable hygiene, he appears almost feral. (By all accounts, he has been significantly cleaner since he married. Heather told me that her wedding vows included a pledge to "love him regardless of how many times he showers or whether he brushes his teeth on a daily basis.")
That don't-care-too-much sensibility fits well with what Toms sells. It's not so much shilling tangible, sartorial accessories (shoes, sunglasses) as offering ineffable, emotional ones—an aura of goodwill, a sense that one is doing something positive with that consumer dollar. "We're about empowering people, inspiring people, helping them to see the life they could live differently," says Awad, the retail marketing head. "We've changed the way people think about consumption."
If that sounds a tad grandiose and self-righteous—the rhetorical opposite of the humble alpargata—it's also completely consonant with the way we live and market today. Toms has identified like-minded, high-profile influencers, partnering with Charlize Theron and Ben Affleck, who collaborate on limited-edition lines and appear at Toms events to promote the brand and their own causes. And it has heavily courted young, trendsetting actors and musicians, such as Olivia Wilde and Passion Pit, hoping that they'll be photographed in and tweet about their Toms. (The company says these unofficial brand ambassadors occasionally receive free products but are never paid.)
The Toms story has also been magnetic to big corporations, which have integrated the brand into major ad campaigns and saved Toms the expense of advertising. After an ad exec saw an item about Toms on a video screen in the back of a New York taxicab, Mycoskie and Toms were featured in TV commercials for AT&T. Microsoft, American Greetings, and AOL have promoted Toms in digital campaigns.
All this publicity has helped Toms become more than a small business very quickly. The company, which is wholly owned by Mycoskie, does not release revenue or profit figures. But Mycoskie did tell me that the average retail price for a pair of Toms is $55, and that about 30% of its revenues come from direct-to-consumer sales via Toms.com. Its giveaway projections—a trailing indicator of sales, since Toms aims to distribute its "giving" pairs within six months of a consumer's purchase—indicate that it expects to sell at least 7 million pairs of shoes this year. A little back-of-the-envelope math gives a conservative revenue estimate of nearly $250 million in 2013, but an inside source suggests that the figure will surpass $300 million (including sunglasses).
The hard part? "Giving, man," Mycoskie says with a shake of his head. "Giving is hard."
Toms's powerful marketing, its good intentions, and the potential of its model to do enormous good inspire widespread praise. Lane Wood, a not-for-profit consultant who has worked with Charity: water, the well-digging NGO that is one of Toms's partners, credits Toms with helping companies mature beyond basic corporate social responsibility. "People have seen the success of Toms and said, 'How do I get a piece of that?'" he says. "While you've seen some really disingenuous campaigns, what I'm excited about is that this will become ubiquitous. Companies have to understand the effect they have on the world."
Yale professor Dean Karlan, who has done groundbreaking research on poverty alleviation, seems cautiously optimistic about what Toms has achieved—and what it could yet accomplish. "Toms has a tremendous vehicle for figuring out how to do this right," he says. "It's a neat idea. I love the passion. But show us the impact, because it takes more than passion to do good."
Here is where the critics chime in. Laura Seay, a professor at Morehouse College, argues that by giving away millions of pairs of shoes, Toms is "just treating one symptom of a much deeper problem, and treating symptoms is not a cure." She adds that Toms's model is built on what's known in trade as dumping. "It undermines the local economy," she says. "The shoe seller goes out of business. He can't send his kids to school."
Others say Toms addresses the wrong issue. Scott Gilmore, CEO of the not-for-profit Building Markets, which works to boost local economies in post-conflict countries, says the problem of persistent poverty is "not a lack of shoes, but a lack of opportunity and a lack of jobs." While he concedes that Toms has helped to build awareness of poverty, he argues that its success really shows the power of monetizing white guilt. "How can we make ourselves feel better?" he asks. "This is the power of self-congratulatory smugness, of saying, 'I'm better than you because I'm helping somebody.' But the people who lose out are ironically the ones they say they're trying to help."
Such criticisms aren't new. They've been growing in number and vehemence—especially on the Internet—in lockstep with the popularity of Toms shoes. But Toms has declined for years to address its critics publicly, giving the impression that it is ignoring them. Mycoskie explains that he has chosen not to engage, in large part because most of the grievances have been broadcast online: "It's a debate you can't win in that medium." He expresses doubt that many of Toms's detractors genuinely want dialogue, and fears "that they'll just take that one sentence out of context."
Privately, Mycoskie claims, he has been seeking out constructive criticism for several years. "I've asked people, 'What could Toms do better?'" he says. "I've learned that the keys to poverty alleviation are education and jobs. And we now have the resources to put investment behind this. Maybe five years from now, we'll be able to say it's really good for business. But the motivator now is, How can we have more impact? At the end of the day, if we can create jobs and do one-for-one, that's the holy grail."
Toward that end, the company has sought to improve the effectiveness of its work throughout the supply chain. All of Toms's consumer shoes today are made in China, as are the vast majority of its giveaway shoes (a small number of which are distributed there). "Toms would not be what it is today without China," says Toms president Laurent Potdevin. "We wouldn't have the resources we have now. It has been the easiest, most cost-effective place to make shoes."
Three years ago, Toms began to make giveaway shoes in Ethiopia, which has a small but burgeoning shoemaking sector. Within the next couple of years, it expects to add shoemaking in India, Kenya, and Haiti, where an artist collective is already customizing Chinese-made Toms for a limited-edition line. Potdevin emphasizes the challenges of such ventures: "Getting a factory up and running, retention, training, finding local management—every aspect is more difficult in a place like Haiti." But separately, Jung, the supply chain chief, notes that it's not all altruism and sacrifice. "Let's not lie to each other," he says. "If you're creating product for the local market, you're spending less to distribute it. No sea freight. No duties." Staying local is especially important in Africa; Ethiopia and Kenya both belong to a free-trade zone that includes nearly every African country where Toms shoes are given away.
Head of giving Sebastian Fries adds that Toms is upgrading the quality of its manufacturing jobs. He rattles off a list of improvements: higher wages; tutoring for workers' children; company-provided take-home meals for working moms; financial education; an on-site preschool at a Kenyan factory where Toms hopes to begin production later this year. "The jobs we help create," he says, "should be in line with what Toms stands for."
At the other end of the business, Toms has lately decided that it ought to learn whether its giveaways work. In August, researchers from the University of San Francisco are expected to release results of a two-year study, funded by a $225,000 Toms grant, of giveaways in El Salvador. Fries, who in 2011 was hired away from Pfizer, where he had been devising products for consumers in low-income markets, says that more such research is planned.
Most of the data the company has gathered so far is anecdotal. Fries has pushed his team to act on the findings anyway. Toms is working with giving partners to integrate shoe drops into health and education programs; in Malawi, for instance, the respected NGO Partners in Health uses shoes to coax parents to bring children to clinics for checkups. It's targeting areas of clearer need; with Save the Children, Toms will give 100,000 pairs of shoes this year to displaced Syrians at the massive Zaatari refugee camp in Jordan. And in response to a common critique that the giveaway shoes don't always meet children's needs, this fall, Toms will begin distributing a winter boot in Afghanistan, India, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, Pakistan, and Tajikistan. But as usual, Toms's impromptu ways might have hurt the effort a little; when it came time to test prototypes, winter was already over. "We found someone in Los Angeles to make artificial snow and ice," Fries explains. "People walked in it for about four hours to make sure they would hold up. But we should have tested it in the winter months."
The question is whether the quality of Toms's giving is as high a priority as the quantity. When the company advertised last summer for a new director of impact assessment, the job's main responsibility was described as "the building of a body of evidence that illuminates and supports the positive and compelling role of all aspects of Toms's giving strategy." What happens, though, if the evidence is not entirely positive or particularly compelling?
In those exhilarating six months after Mycoskie returned from Argentina with his story and his samples, Toms sold 10,000 pairs of shoes, and in the fall of 2006, he went back to the country for the first round of giveaways, which took place mostly in Misiones, a northeastern province near the Brazilian border. The company has returned multiple times since then to give away more shoes. Without Toms's knowledge, Fast Company recently went to several Misiones communities to see what, if any, lasting effects those giveaways have had.
The economy in Andresito revolves largely around the yerba tree, whose leaves are dried to make yerba mate, the strong tea that Argentines drink constantly. The sprawling municipality, hacked from virgin jungle just 40 years ago, is dotted with pockets of poverty. From the sleepy town center—there's just one restaurant and one guesthouse, catering mostly to passing truckers—you have to bump along red dirt roads for 40 hilly kilometers, past orchards and pastures and fields of mandioca, to reach School No. 436, one of the first that the Toms team visited in 2006.
That visit, says school director Sergio Dario Gonzalez, "was a gift from heaven." Typically, the only foreigners who come through Misiones are en route to Iguazu Falls, one of the seven wonders of the natural world, on the Argentine-Brazilian border. "They pass by in cars and buses, some take photos of the school, and then leave," Gonzalez says. "But this was real interaction." After distributing the shoes, some volunteers played basketball and soccer with the kids, while others sang, danced, and played other games.
The fleet of motorcycles parked outside indicates the region's improving fortunes—five years ago, most students came to school either on horseback or on foot, but today, many of the landowners' kids arrive by "moto." One of the most important, if unexpected, functions of the shoe drops tugs in the opposite direction of that richer-kid fleet: the erasure of a visible sign of income inequality. "It was really great to have these students next to each other with the same shoes—as equals," Gonzalez says. "The kid of the tobacco farmer had the same shoes as a kid whose mom can't always feed her kids. That was powerful. It was really a special moment for the kids, especially for their self-esteem." Adds Fabiana Ramos, a sixth-grade teacher: "At the time, it was really the only shoe that many of these kids had." Though most pairs lasted no more than three months, some of the students, she recalls, "washed and dried them until they broke." Those shoes lasted six or eight months.
About a four-and-a-half-hour drive south of Andresito, in the even poorer municipality of San Pedro, Toms has given away more than 20,000 pairs of shoes since 2006. In a destitute San Pedro village called Alacrin, where the population is entirely indigenous Guarani, residents have become dependent on donations—not just shoes but also clothes and school supplies. Toms's gifts were very welcome. Alacrin's rudimentary one-room schoolhouse, cobbled together from wood and scrap metal, bursts with chatty, smiling kids of all ages, many of whom go barefoot even in winter. "Mothers in need ask for two basic things for their kids: milk and shoes," says Mirta Allgayer, a San Pedro civil servant who helped coordinate visits by Toms in 2006, 2008, and 2010. "These are the basics. Especially in families with seven, eight, nine children."
Toms's legacy in Misiones is measurable in smiles, tears, and memories. Celia Romero, the head of School No. 341, which got a shoe drop in 2006, was moved as she recalled the Toms visit. "It was more than a gift," she says. "There are kids here who come to school with their toes sticking out of their shoes. The families came to watch and be part of it. It was very exciting. Everyone was happy." Allgayer, who still gets choked up at her memories of the shoe drops, says, "It was amazing to see the faces of these kids when they see someone giving them a gift one time in their life. The kids said, 'Someone is going to give me something?'"
But Toms's giveaways haven't been as transformative as the company might have liked. Though much of Misiones has grown rapidly in recent years, the improvement is mainly an outcome of the generous, vote-stoking subsidies of Argentine president Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner's populist government. Many of the shoes Toms distributed at the seven Misiones schools that Fast Company visited went to children who would not be considered poor; according to Clara Alicira Hirschfeld, director of the 370-student School No. 144 in San Pedro, all of her kids have always had shoes. ("But it was so much fun," she says, "like a party.") And in Misiones's poorest villages, like Alacrin, a shoe drop once every two years can't keep kids shod for long. The region's soil—rocky, red-stained, and prone to glooping into sole-sucking mud during winter rains—is devastating to the alpargatas' already limited life expectancy. Of the dozens of people interviewed throughout Misiones, only two said they still had hand-me-down pairs of Toms in use, rare survivors from the 2010 shoe drop. (The company now prefers to call the distributions "giving trips.")
Yet the giveaways don't appear to have damaged local businesses as much as the critics said they would, either. An hour's drive south of San Pedro, the El Gato alpargata factory makes shoes for all of Misiones Province. Owner Graciela Mabel Katz claims never to have heard of Toms, but thinks the shoe drops haven't hurt sales. El Gato produces 800 pairs of alpargatas daily—a child-size pair goes for about $3 retail—and sells out every two weeks. "They're seen as something accessible for people with little money," she says.
Gladys Pitsch, who runs a shoe shop in Andresito, also has seen little harm from the giveaways. "Alpargatas aren't really shoes," she says. "It might have been different if Toms had given out waterproof shoes or long-lasting ones."
A few weeks after visiting Toms headquarters, I flew to Austin, where Blake and Heather Mycoskie moved last year. He still typically spends a couple of days a week in L.A., but living in Texas has given him the space to think bigger and more strategically. He invited me to join him for a walk around Town Lake, the waterway that bisects central Austin, and he was in a more philosophical mood than when I'd seen him in California. Even his speech seemed a little slower.
To Mycoskie, Toms will be a failure if we keep appending the word shoes to the company name, because he's thinking much bigger and for the long term. Even now, if you type tomsshoes.com into your browser, you'll be redirected to toms.com.
One of Mycoskie's business heroes is Richard Branson, and he sees a model in the British mogul's unprecedented propagation of the Virgin brand. "Nobody has done that like he has," Mycoskie says. "Here's my hypothesis: In the 1960s and 1970s, when Richard was starting, he tapped into an energy and attitude that was countercultural and irreverent and disruptive. He started with music, which was perfect, and once the customer knew what the Virgin brand stood for and trusted it, he was able to take that same attitude into all different industries, and today, kids who listened to music from Virgin Megastores are flying his business class."
Toms-wearing teens and twentysomethings are, in Mycoskie's vision, today's equivalent of the Virgin kids of the 1970s and 1980s. "They're buying clothing that's organic. They're giving up their birthdays to raise money for Charity: water. They're shopping at farmers' markets. And they wear Toms," he says. "We started with shoes. Now we're doing eyewear. We're taking them along this path where they can integrate giving."
Mycoskie is mulling three or four categories for Toms's expansion, and the next could launch as early as the fourth quarter of 2013. "I want to show people that one-for-one is not just for the lifestyle-fashion space," he says. "It can even be everyday products."
Though he won't say what industries or categories he is eyeing, a search of the 200-plus domain names that Mycoskie LLC, Toms's parent company, has registered over the past few years suggests that he is considering everything from wine (tomswine.com) to event ticketing (tomsticket.com, tickettogive.com) to financial services (tomscreditcard.com, tomsinvesting.com, tomsmortgage.com, tomsstudentloans.com).
In March, a lawyer acting on Mycoskie's behalf also filed a trademark application for the tagline "You drink, we dig," which may indicate that the company could expand its partnership with Charity: water, the not-for-profit founded by Mycoskie's good friend Scott Harrison. The lawyer also sought an expansion of Toms's existing trademark "One for One," to cover "beers; mineral and aerated waters and other nonalcoholic beverages; fruit beverages and fruit juices; syrups and other preparations for making beverages."
There's a scene in Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's novel Cancer Ward in which the patients stumble across "What Men Live By," a short story by Leo Tolstoy, another author Mycoskie has read and admired. The story is about a poor shoemaker who takes a naked beggar into his home. The beggar, who becomes the shoemaker's assistant, is eventually revealed to be a fallen angel. Before the angel can regain his wings, he must learn lessons about mankind, including the answer to the question, What do men live by?
When one of the Cancer Ward characters poses this question, his friends offer divergent answers: air, water, and food; "their rations"; "by their ideological principles"; "professional skill." In the Tolstoy short story, the right answer was "love"—which some of the novel's men find foreign, unsatisfying, even unacceptable. "No," one says dismissively, "that's nothing to do with our sort of morality."
If you ask, what does Toms live by?, the reactions will be similarly divergent. The model that Mycoskie pioneered, the mistakes he has made in execution, the profits he has reaped, the good he has done—all these will be read and received in different ways by different people.
At times, Mycoskie seems at once emboldened and bewildered by his success—and by people's reactions to it. "I had no experience in fashion," he says as we walk around the lake. "I had no experience in shoes. I had no experience being a public figure. I had no experience in giving. I had no experience in development. I never even read a book by Jeff Sachs!" He does appreciate some of the criticism. "Toms will never be a perfect company. Sometimes as entrepreneurs, we think of things and we sell them to ourselves. But I've learned so much along the way, and we want to think in a more holistic way about our impact."
I ask if the burden—of being Mr. Toms, of trying to do something unprecedented—sometimes feels like too much, and he reflects for a moment before answering. "The responsibility can at times feel exhausting, and some days I don't want it. There are definitely times I say, 'Is it even worth it?'" He smiles and then quickly adds: "But I'm not asking anyone to feel sorry for me." I feel the pace quicken just a bit. "I'm going to say this as humbly as I can: I believe what we're doing is affecting the way businesses will be built for hundreds of years to come," he says. "You stay true to what you believe, and what your message is, and then you let the chips fall where they fall."
