Q: Difference in address representation of a local value when observing the esp register using gdb I am running an already compiled simple program using gdb, this is the source code (I don't know with what flags the program was compiled)
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  volatile int modified;
  char buffer[64];
  modified = 0;
  gets(buffer);

  if(modified != 0) {
     printf("you have changed the 'modified' variable\n");
  } else {
    printf("Try again?\n");
}

}
This code is taken from propstar (stack-zero)
I am degbugging and getting to the instruction: mov DWORD PTR [ESP+5C], 0x0
And I do understand that this is the instantiation of the variable "modified"
When I am looking at the variable itself: p &modified the address is different from where is sitting on the stack see snapshot below:

I do understand that the $esp is a pointer register, but I am not sure then how to read then addresses of the $esp when doing 'x/32wx $esp (see marked). I mean I would expect that if the esp is now holding address 0xbffffcc0 - it would be the address of the variable modified, since it is saved on the stack, but instead when I do 'p &modified' I fet the address 0xbffffd84.

Thank you !

A: For who is wonder, yes indeed this is for bufferoveflow practice and learning.
After writing the question and posting I guess it was my "Rubber duck debugging".
I relaunched again the the program with gdb, i checked again the stack with "x/32wx $esp" i see some value in address 0xbffffcc0, then when I got to the instruction i was stuggling with I checked again and saw that indeed the value there also changes to 0x0000000.
I am always forgetting the a 32/64 bit address is a representation of single byte, and so I did 0xbfffffcc0 - 0x4 = which does not fit to my address.
Then with a better looking I see that the x/32w $esp is actually representing me the stack from the bottom of it.
Since I recall that modified "is a local variable local vairable located in frame offset 92" i just did "x/100w $esp", i did find the address of the modified and for making sure i am correct i set this vairable with 0xffffffff ( 'set modified  = 0xffffffff ').
And indeed I saw the change where i expected (and not in where $esp is now).
I did read the 'mov DWORD PTR' is an access to as a pointer and know it needs to see it as a DWORD (32 bits), and not to change $esp value, since we did not push anything onto the stack.

Taken from here
I guess i need a break from debugging, thank you to whoever gave a look at my question.

Messi Wins Another Ballon d'Or
January 11, 2016 Bryan Lockleyathletics, bryan lockley, Bryan Lockley and Sports, fitness, florida, gym teacher, sports Leave a comment
Known as the Golden Ball in French, the Ballon d'Or is the considered to be the Oscar or Grammy of the professional soccer world. The award is voted on by the FIFA community and is awarded to the player that deserves it most according to his peers, whether due to teamwork, sportsmanship, or skill. This year, like other years previous, the award went to one of the greatest soccer players the world has ever known, Lionel Messi. Since he began playing soccer, Messi has shown himself to be amongst the best and this is just another example of that skill and drive.
http://ift.tt/ny84Tt
The voting for the Ballon d'Or is done in a relatively democratic fashion. The democratic vote is done by every national team's head coach, the captain for each national team, and one accredited journalist from each country participating in FIFA's international events. While this has sometimes led to confusion, there was none this year — Messi came away with 41% of the total votes, a clear win for the player. There is also no denying that Messi deserves the award, even though the competition was fierce and deserving as well.
As the years have gone, Messi has become more and more of a superstar in the soccer world, both on and off the field. While he is known for his scoring and controlling his team with an iron fist (it's Messi's way or the highway, apparently), no one should think that he isn't a team player. He has made an effort to raise both himself and those playing with him to the next level, providing leadership and experience where it's needed. The winning of the Ballon d'Or isn't just a testament to Messi's skills as a player, but also as a testament to the importance he has had to his teammates and the sport as a whole.

Leg Raise with Ab Hop and Split
Florida Prepares for Presidential Campaigns to Arrive
January 11, 2016 Bryan Lockleyathletics, bryan lockley, Bryan Lockley's General Site, fitness, florida, gym teacher, physical fitness, sports, training Leave a comment
While Florida may make the news for a variety of reasons that rarely every have to do with politics (hello Florida Man), it is still one of the most important states in the union, politics speaking. Florida is probably the most important primary state in the race for the Republican nomination, as well as the general election — but let's not even worry about the general election yet. It turns out that winning Florida during the Republican primary will award about 100 delegates to the victor, a massive number and enough to either more or less win the race, or at least make a comeback.
http://ift.tt/12is7Kv
This week is going to be huge for both Florida as well as the candidates rolling through it in an attempt to win support and shore up their numbers before the primary election that will take place two months from now. On Monday, as in today, Marco Rubio will be in Sarasota, stumping for one of the first times in his home state. Wednesday will see Donald Trump in Pensacola, speaking in a stadium that can fit 10,000 and, knowing him, very possibly filling it. With other candidates also showing up to stump in the state, Florida is going to be full of politicians for the next two months.
For candidates like Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush, Florida is both their home state as well as their last chance to make an attempt to stay in a presidential race in which they have underperformed and polled terribly. For candidates like Cruz and Trump, who are currently polling at the top of their field, they will be aiming to shore up support and win over voters who aren't already on their side. If neither Jeb nor Rubio perform as they hope to and bolster their numbers, there's a very good chance that they will no longer be valid actors in this performance that has become the GOP primary race.

Working to cut subsidies for wind farms and limit onshore wind farms are one of Chris' main policy focuses. He has made numerous speeches in Parliament on the topic and organized a letter to the Prime Minister signed by over 100 MPs calling for drastic cuts in on-shore wind farm subsidies. Chris has also worked to call attention to the problems created by wind farms for local residents including noise, visual intrusion and their effect on wildlife. He is working with a number of local communities, helping them to fight both wind-farm proposals and giving local committees a greater say in their future.

7 Most Famous Mediums of All Time
What is a medium?
A medium is someone who claims to have and possess a psychic ability that allows them to connect and communicate to the people who have passed away already. They also have intuitive abilities that enables them to gather and receive intuitive information and knowledge about certain people and/or spirits.
Here is a list of the most famous mediums of all time:
1. Emmanuel Swedenborg
Emmanuel Swedenborg was born in Stockholm and he had committed his life into studying engineering and natural science. He was a very notable seer and prophet. Once, he had visioned, while staying in a friend's house, that there is a fire starting in one of his other friend's house and that is also very close to his home, then he updated them at around 8pm that the fire had been extinguished already. That vision was very accurate which made the people believe that he is a legitimate medium.
2. Emma Hardinge Britten
Emma Britten is one of the most remarkable and outstanding settler and frontierswoman of the Spiritualism in Britain today. She has written books about Spiritualism and she was one of the few people who advocated and recommended that all of the Spiritualists unite and join as one so they could hold a religious organization.
3. The Bangs Sisters
The Bangs sisters, May and Elizabeth, are gifted psychics as they have mastered clairvoyance, direct voices, mediumship and materialization. They also do independent drawings and writing. They perform their mediumship on stage where a lot of people could actually see them.
4. The Davenport Brothers
The Davenport brothers, Ira Erastus and William Henry, were both from New York, USA. When they were young kids, their family were troubled and distressed by loud knocks and bumps and rappings. The brothers, along with their sister, tried to experiment and appraise the situation by putting their hands on the table and then messages just spelled out on its own. It was believed that Ira Erastus developed a skill in automatic writing and levitation, he would be able to float above other people's head.
5. The Eddy Brothers
The Eddy brothers, Horatio and William, were from a poverty-stricken family and they were very unsociable and reclusive people as they often find themselves in conflict with other people as rumors go around town that there are weird and strange things that are happening in their home. Their psychic gifts includes movement of objects, speaking other languages while on a reading, giving out prophecies, psychic healing, clairvoyance, psychometry and automatic writing.
6. Daniel Dunglas Home
Daniel Home was born in Currie but left and went to England to live with his aunt but she was very religious and when she knew of Daniel's abilities, she thought that he brought the devil in her house so she asked him to leave her house. He was sickly and he was poor. His abilities were mostly all of the mediumistic abilities that anyone could think of except for materialization as he refuses to sit in a dark place.
7. Helen Duncan
Helen Duncan was born in Scotland and is known to be one of the most defamed and slandered mediums in the 1900s but she was one of the best, spectacular and impressive of all. She was a medium that can talk and communicate to spirits and she can also allow herself to be a spirit's vessel for a short time.
There are still lots of famous and notable mediums from all over the globe. If you feel like you have the same psychic abilities, go and search for their life before they left this world and learn more about how they perfected their abilities and skills.


This year, online food orders in Saudi Arabia reached $644 million so far, and are expected to exceed $1 billion by 2019.
After noting the high demand for food in Saudi Arabia, local student Nouf Alsaleem, decided to launch her new startup, 'Mathaqi', a homemade food delivery application.
Just like many Saudi startups, she faced difficulties to seed fund her project, and couldn't resort but to her father. She pointed out that - at first - she did not want to get funding from her family, but did not have any other options. "I presented my idea to my father - who is a businessman - and he liked it. He believed in the possibility of making a great profit and social impact, thus providing housewives with job opportunities", she said.
She then launched her app in March 2017, and used the funding she received from her father to equip Mathaqi's office in Olaya, Riyadh, cover her operational expenses, and develop the platform, as well as to buy 15 delivery vehicles.
Two months following its launch, Mathaqi won an award for tech innovation at the KSA Enterprise Agility Awards 2017 ceremony. The startup also won the the Seedstars GCC's Public Choice Award, in Bahrain.
Mathaqi offers different home-cooked food options every day, including local, Indian, Arabic and other cuisines, prepared by home chefs and housewives who apply to the platform.
After closing the deal with them, Mathaqi trains the cooks on the proper way to package the meals and get them ready for delivery.
Mathaqi does not act as an intermediary between chefs and customers. Instead, it sets a daily menu ahead of time, and provides chefs with that weekly menu, in order to prepare the meals in advance to avoid potential preparation delays. The cooks get the raw material and pay for them.
In exchange for their services, chefs and housewives get a monthly salary that rises depending on the quantity and the quality of the meals they provide. On average, each cook prepares 20 meals per week.
According to Alsaleem, "a Mathaqi chef could make 4,000 Saudi Riyals (nearly US$ 1,000) a month, which contributes to the support of productive families and provides additional income channels".
The saudi startup currently deals with over 80 male and female chefs. However, the platform picks 15 of them every week to grant everyone the opportunity to participate.
Nouf Alsaleem, presenting her ideas during the Seedstars' event (Image via Seedstars).
The platform allows clients to choose the region in which they are located, and displays the details of all local home chefs situated nearby, enabling the clients to select their food options from the menu.
Meal prices vary depending on the meal and its ingredients. For example, a butter chicken plate costs 19 Riyals ($5).
To order a chicken maftoul for example, users will have to log in to Mathaqi's website or mobile app, pick the dish, which costs 22 riyals ($5.8), order it, and pay five Riyals ($1.3) as a delivery fee.
Word of mouth was the main marketing channel for Alsaleem's business.Then the Mathaqi team started taking part in exhibitions to introduce the project and attract potential users and chefs.
Next year, Alsaleem aims at opening a home-cooked food store in a mall, especially that "it will represent a permanent Mathaqi advertisement spot, allowing us to directly reach out people," she said.
Alsaleem said that Mathaqi's team, which includes 15 people, is in charge of the platform's development, financial management, marketing, accounting, customer service, and chefs management. Deliveries are handled by 10 other full-time employees, receiving a fixed 2,200 Riyals ($586) as a monthly salary.
After overcoming the funding issue with the help of her father, Alsaleem started generating money by selling meals to customers.
Hiring chefs represented one of these challenges. According to Alsaleem, "many of chefs were hesitant to join us and thus, left us even before signing the contract." But she is trying to retain them by providing a good salary.

Mathaqi currently operates in Riyadh only, however the startup has plans to expand to cover other cities in the KSA, namely Mecca and Medina. According to Alsaleem, these two cities are full of opportunities, as "they witness a flow of people from around the world who are coming for Haj, where many may want to try and eat home-cooked and healthy food".
The Saudi platform also seeks to add a dedicated feature to assess the chefs, as it currently receives customer feedback by phone. In addition, Mathaqi aims at introducing monthly and weekly subscription options, targeting working families and university students.
To that end, Mathaqi joined Badir, the technology incubator and accelerator program, to "receive guidance, get in touch with relevant stakeholders, and maybe attract investors that would help in the expansion process," she said.
Alsaleem said that they need three million Riyals ($800,000), to expand to Makkah and Madinah, hire new tech team members, and build a kitchen for Mathaqi itself.

Cloud9's Blaber wins a second LCS Spring Split MVP title
by Rashidat Jimoh
The LCS has announced Robert "Blaber" Huang as the Honda Most Valuable Player of the 2021 LCS Spring Split. The jungler's impressive performance throughout the Split earned his team a first-place finish in the regular season. Blaber edged out Team Liquid's Barney "Alphari" Morris to win his second Spring Split MVP. He also saw off nine other players that were nominated for the award.
Congratulations to @blaber on winning the 2021 #LCS Spring @Honda MVP Award! #HondaMVP #C9WIN pic.twitter.com/XTPz7TfXj6
— LCS (@LCSOfficial) April 9, 2021
Blaber's dominance in 2021 LCS Spring Split.
The young North American jungler has been an integral part of Cloud9 this Split. Most of C9's wins occurred alongside Blaber's impact in the game. The aggressive jungle meta perfectly suits him well. Also, C9 being a proactive team on the rift has helped Blaber to continuously outsmart other junglers and their teams.
Moreover, Blaber has the best KDA of all junglers for the regular season. His 68 kills and 137 assists are the best for any LCS jungler. He also leads in most statistics like damage per minute, damage share and creep score difference at 10 minutes amongst junglers. Blaber played 9 unique champions during the Spring Split with Lillia and Taliyah being his favorite picks. He only lost one match each on these two champions and never lost on Rek'Sai. All of this likely contributed to Blaber's selection as the 2021 LCS Spring Split MVP.
An LCS Legend in the making?

Since becoming the starting jungler for C9 in 2020, Blaber has shown that he is worthy of that spot. His improvement over the years has been rapid and very impressive. With this MVP win, Blaber is now the first jungler to win the LCS MVP award more than once.
Asides from this, Blaber continues to easily adapt to the ever-changing meta of League. At just 21 years of age, he shows no signs of slowing down. While he still has a long way to go to be compared with the likes of Yiliang "Doublelift" Peng, there is no doubt that Blaber is a legend in the making.
Blaber will take to the stage for the last time in 2021 Spring at the LCS Mid-Season Showdown finals for a chance to represent NA at MSI. The Mid-Season Showdown finals take place on Sunday, April 11 at 4 p.m. ET.

One of the things I'm seeing more and more is filter based photography.
Everything comes in cycles and that's all fine and dandy. I remember when the Ring Flash came back and everyone (including myself) had to have one. I remember when Cross Processing came back and everyone (again, including myself) was doing it..oh wait, it still is.
In 2011 I posted a photo to a photography forum and one of the "Old Heads" said "I've been shooting for 50 years and have never seen a poorly shot photo. I've never seen a poorly exposed photo look like this before" The photo he was referring to? It was this one that is obviously cross processed. I had to educate this Old Head to what Cross Processing is…even though he has been shooting for 50 years! Wait a sec, I got off track, sorry.
Cross processing has been around now for about two years in it's recent resurgent. This is a lot longer than some of it's pre-predecessors such as HDR, which has always left me wondering; Is an image truly enhanced by the various filters we throw on them? Yes, I am sponsored by Alien Skin and I LOVE them and their filters, but I'm of the opine that they need to be used sparingly. This being said, programs like Instagram has for sure enabled everyone to become a cross processing photographic master! But again, it begs the question; is an image truly enhanced by the various filters we use?
I'm of the opinion that more is too much. I see lots of amazing photos that have filters thrown on them and imho, it takes away from the photo. Like HDR before it, the various filters are being overused and as a result, taking away from the awesomeness of using it!
Here's a photo collage of Milly. The image on the left is normal, second and third images have Alien Skin filters. Do the filters help the photo?
Do you think filter use has gotten out of hand? If you agree or disagree sound off!

Q: How to pass more than one argument in component function in React How to pass more than one argument in components function in React
 function Ads(product_title, description) {
    return(

{product_title.title}

{description.desc}

            <button className = "btn btn-primary" role = "button" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#view-detail">View Details
            </button>

      );

}
ReactDOM.render(<Ads title="PlayStation 4" desc="Lorem ipsum jipsum Lorem ipsum jipsum"/>, document.getElementById('ads'));

The code above only takes the value of first parameter

A: Stateless React components only receive a single argument, an object that contains all the props:
function Ads(props) {
  // access props.title
  //        props.desc

  // ...
}

Maybe that becomes more obvious if you look at what the JSX is actually converted to:
// Before:
<Ads title="PlayStation 4" desc="Lorem ipsum jipsum Lorem ipsum jipsum"/>
// After:
React.createElement(
  Ads,
  { title: "PlayStation 4", desc: "Lorem ipsum jipsum Lorem ipsum jipsum" }
);

A common pattern is to use destructuring to get direct access to the props:
function Ads({title, desc}) {
  // ...
}

A: In the example you provided, product_title.desc should have the value you're looking for. When you're calling <Ads title="PlayStation 4" desc="Lorem ipsum jipsum Lorem ipsum jipsum"/>, both title and desc will be passed to your component function as properties of an object, so both will be available in your function with the name of the first param you specified, which in your case is product_title.

The SsangYong Rexton is a large seven-seat SUV, built in the traditional body-on-frame style. it shares its platform with the SsangYong Musso pick-up. The current version of the Rexton was launched in the second half of 2017.
The latest Rexton is a big improvement over previous models, although it has still only received modest scores from most of the UK automotive media. It has received praise for its towing ability, off-road performance and value for money, but criticism for its comfort and interior quality.
More SsangYong news, reviews, features and offers
Launched: Autumn 2017
Last updated: –
"If you want a strong, robust 4×4 that can tow a heavy caravan or trailer not only to the scenery but through it, you should check out the SsangYong Rexton."
"It drives more like an upmarket pick-up than a luxury SUV. Still, if you want a genuinely tough machine for towing, or an off-road workhorse that can double up as convincing family transport, the Rexton ticks a lot of boxes at the price."
"Tough, cheap and backed by an unlimited five-year warranty, the appeal to those who couldn't care less about ride comfort or performance or interior niceties isn't hard to fathom. And thought of as an outward bound tool – gristly and abused – it's rather easy to like the Rexton."
"If you want a spacious, capable and tough-feeling 4×4 with absolutely no pretence whatsoever, the Rexton does the job well."
"Although far from cutting-edge, the latest SsangYong Rexton makes most sense as a no-nonsense family workhorse with a touch of luxury."
"The SsangYong Rexton is a competitively priced SUV that can tow huge loads and deal with serious off-roading, but it looks dated inside and isn't great to drive."
"For a SsangYong, the start price might seem on the steep side – but the Rexton is bigger than the likes of a Hyundai Santa Fe and has a very generous level of equipment. Factor in the comprehensive five-year warranty and there's a lot to like – but if you aren't going to tow or venture off-road, it's not the best choice."
"Genuinely capable 4×4 can seat seven and tow big loads"
"SsangYong wants to be known as the Korean Land Rover, appealing to farmers and the show-jumping set. But the Rexton may go more mainstream."
"A giant, kitted out seven-seat 4×4 for the price of a top-spec Qashqai. Only apply if you like your driving rufty-tufty."
"Worth considering if you need a muscular tow car that seats seven, but too flawed to recommend otherwise."
"Cheap and cheerful."
The SsangYong Rexton has not yet been crash tested by Euro NCAP. Check back soon.

Superdry Orange, a deliciously rich scent, from the oriental citrus family, this latest Superdry fragrance has notes of Blood Orange, Black Pepper, Frankincense, Sandalwood and Patchouli.
- The packaging is not nice and hard to open it, the top lid do not have a funcion.
The perfume smells nice, the orange comes true. It is not a strong fragrance, not owerpowering. Not last to long, need to apply again and again.
I think the packaging is ugly and very simple, the different scent bottles look good next to eachother like this.


A furnace is among the most expensive appliances in the home but it is easy to neglect, even more so when the weather is hot. During the spring and summer seasons, furnaces stand dormant in basements across the country, collecting hazardous dust, dirt and debris within blowers and electrical components.
Over time, this buildup becomes hazardous to a homeowner's wallet and health, but it can easily be prevented by an annual visit from a licensed heating technician. Annual maintenance costs are modest and the financial and health benefits from a clean furnace are more than worth it.
Yearly cleaning extends the life of a furnace, prevents the risk of expensive emergency repairs and improves air quality, leading to a reduction of allergies, asthma and other illness. A well maintained heating system can also deliver greater furnace efficiency, which prevents energy waste and homeowners from getting burned by ever increasing heating costs.
To make sure your heating system is up to handling another cold Canadian winter, book a checkup with a qualified contractor this fall. To locate a qualified HRAI Member contractor near you, go to our Contractor Locator page or contact the call centre at 1-877-467-4724.
All HRAI Member Contractors have been prescreened and have the required trade licenses, technical certifications and insurance coverage to work on your system.
Gas Fireplaces Need Maintenance Too?


Just before the winter holiday break in 2013, the accounts clerk at Helen Cox High School reported an astonishing crime. She told investigators that an armed robber showed up at the Harvey school's office and made off with potentially thousands of dollars in cash and checks, all of it collected from students for senior dues, candy sales and other school functions such as dances, according to Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office records.
But after school officials investigated, they pointed to the clerk herself as the culprit. Nieli Hebert, 45, is suspected of embezzling about $75,000 over more than a year, according to a new audit and Sheriff's Office records. Prosecutors are trying to decide whether to charge Hebert with a crime, her attorney said Tuesday.
Soon after Hebert reported the robbery, she resigned. School system officials began to examine Cox's books and talk to other employees. They eventually told police that Hebert might have stolen the money, and the Sheriff's Office arrested her March 31.
Witnesses told investigators that Hebert received cash and checks collected by teachers for the student activity fund. She entered the amounts in her computer and gave receipts to teachers.


Deep purple ruby in color, the wine has fruit driven aromas of plum, cherry and a hint of bay leaf. The palate is rich and concentrated with flavors of red fruits, baking spice and vanilla.
For the perfect match, start with a finer cut of beef and flavor with thyme, black pepper or rosemary. Mushrooms make an excellent side dish. For something unexpected and delightful, pair this wine with rare Ahi tuna in a peppercorn crust.


Say a final goodbye to the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
"TPP is now in the history dustbin for sure," Gary Hufbauer, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, told POLITICO Pro.
Two other trade initiatives still under negotiation -- the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership and the Trade in Services Agreement -- may also end up on the globalization trash pile, Hufbauer added.
The odds of TPP passage were long even before the election. Still, the Obama administration had hoped to pave the way for a vote in the lame duck session by resolving a number of Republican concerns about the agreement. However, the election of Trump, who strongly opposes the agreement, has dashed those hopes, the analysts said.
"Just like [Obama's Supreme Court nominee] Merrick Garland is never going to get a confirmation hearing, TPP is never going to get an implementing bill," said Scott Miller, a trade policy specialist at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
Alan Wolf, senior counsel at Dentons and chairman of the National Foreign Trade Council, shared that assessment. "Nothing that has the label TPP — or in the near term, the content of TPP — will be put into place by the U.S.," Wolf said.
"The coffin is nearly closed on TPP," Nate Olson, director of the Trade21 project at the Stimson Center, agreed. "There's no viable action in the lame duck" given the results of Tuesday's election.


Our core purpose is to strengthen nonprofits.
The Foraker Group is a 501(c)(3) organization. Our core purpose is to strengthen nonprofits.
Our deep commitment to advancing dedicated, skilled, and compassionate professionals and volunteers to serve Alaska's nonprofit and tribal organizations is guided by the Foraker Nonprofit Sustainability Model.
We know that for vital nonprofits that serve our communities and bolster our economy to succeed, they need to be strong, stable, and ready to innovate and collaborate. Foraker offers Alaska nonprofits and tribes the knowledge, skills, and experiences they need to thrive.
Remaining relevant to our Partners and Alaska's nonprofit sector is key to our success. Our Theory of Change articulates the way we work with organizations, their leaders, and the sector as a whole, as well as the outcomes we expect at various points of engagement. At the same time we are listening and soliciting feedback from our Partners, funders, and the sector to help us stay on track and achieve greater impact. Together, the model and the theory provide the basis for our accountability and assure that our programs and services remain dynamic and vital resources for the sector.
You have our commitment to provide mission-centered, creative, high quality, and cost-effective services to all regions of Alaska. Our approach is rooted in our core values to meet you as staff, board, and volunteers where you currently exist, working with you to foster new skills, collaborative partnerships, sustainability, and strategic thinking.
Foraker's core values are words that motivate us to achieve our core purpose by weaving the essence of these ideas into every product and service we offer.
These values are: Sustainability – Strategic – Collaborative – Urban/Rural/Native/Non-Native. The last value reflects our commitment to serving all Alaska's people and communities.
We hold fast to a set of ideas that provide a fundamental and underlying rationale for our work. These are the foundational perspectives that are woven throughout our core values. These are the ideas that guide us and keep us oriented in the right direction.
The nonprofit sector is essential to our democracy. Nonprofits bring people together to create change and provide a voice for civil society.
Nonprofits are a part of everyday lives. Every day we as Alaskans rely on nonprofits to support our health and well-being, stand-up for causes that matter, bring people together, teach our young, care for our elderly, and so much more. Donors, volunteers, and staff work to improve our communities in both visible and invisible ways every day.
Successful leaders are supported leaders. We need support from one another to achieve our greatest goals.
No organization can achieve mission on its own. It is only when we connect, convene, and collaborate to strengthen relationships that we achieve something greater than ourselves and any one institution.
Leaders make better decisions when they represent the communities they serve. Decisions made with a community are more viable than decisions made for a community.
Local leaders make things happen. Community change is driven by local leaders. Collectively they best know their needs and solutions.
Strong nonprofits build strong communities. When nonprofits work together within and across sectors, they solve complex problems, create opportunities for quality of life, and offer invaluable networks and connections that strengthen our sense of place.
Vibrant economies need nonprofits. Nonprofits contribute to the wealth and resources of each region in our state by creating jobs, leveraging resources, promoting philanthropic investments, and engaging people in using their voice for the greater good.
We believe in setting clear goals to lead us into the future. We have strategic goals as well as public policy priorities. Our strategic plan guides our work beyond "business as usual" and propels us to accomplish our goals in partnership with the sector.
Long-term goal (2021): Lead innovative systems change in order to strengthen the ability of Alaska nonprofits to significantly improve our communities.
Achieving our long-term goal: Our values and theory of change articulate the way we work with organizations, leaders, and the sector to achieve our goals. They ensure that we provide excellence to our current programs and services while we strive to achieve new goals.. The Foraker Group will act as a leader, catalyst, convener, innovator, and connector for the Alaska nonprofit sector to achieve this goal.
In 1998, the United Way of Anchorage surveyed its agencies to determine what services they needed and would be willing to use in a pooled organization. Their initial list was long, but the four highest demands were assistance in fundraising, planned giving, finance, and technology. A model was developed based on bringing together capacity building programs in these four areas under one nonprofit umbrella. This model is The Foraker Group.
We officially began serving the Alaska nonprofit sector in January 2001, after it secured major financial support from the Rasmuson Foundation, United Way of Anchorage, M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust, ConocoPhillips Alaska, and BP Alaska. Dennis McMillian was Foraker's the founding President/CEO who expertly guided the organization for 15 years.
Today, we offer a wide range of services and educational programs that help assure the success of Alaska's nonprofit sector.
Our name came from a special place that is part of the rugged beauty that surrounds us. Standing next to Denali is a lesser known peak called Mount Foraker. Back in 2001, Foraker seemed an appropriate name for our new organization. We viewed Denali as a metaphor for the nonprofit sector with Mount Foraker standing right next to it. Foraker is part of the landscape but does not overshadow Denali, the highly esteemed landmark for Alaskans.
In the same way, The Foraker Group "stands beside" Alaska's nonprofit professionals, working with them to build effective, strategic, and sustainable organizations.

World-wide influencing: what is it?
Steve Price-Thomas September, 14, 17 Active citizenship, General, Governance, Influencing
A changing world poses new challenges, and opens up new opportunities, for Oxfam's work to end poverty, inequality, and injustice. Steve Price Thomas, Oxfam International's Director of Advocacy and Campaigns explains why Oxfam has adopted a 'world-wide influencing' approach, as part of a series on influencing for change.
Our world faces seismic shifts—is Oxfam prepared to deal with them?
More than 65 million people have been forced from their homes by war and persecution, and have all too often been met by shut doors from countries which could help. The gap between the ultra-rich and the rest of us keeps growing wider every year. Climate change has intensified droughts and tropical storms. Massive corporations racing to snap up scarce resources like forests and farmlands threaten the small communities which depend on them.
it's not just the global poverty picture which has changed; we've seen the balance of international power shift
But it's not just the global poverty picture which has changed; we've seen the balance of international power shift. The United States and Europe are seeing their influence on poverty-related issues slowly wane with the rise of groups like the BRICs, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and the G20.
Civil society is also shifting the way it operates. The communications revolution and social networking has enabled more and more people, especially young people, to share information, ideas, and organize. At the same time, technology has also allowed authoritarian governments to spy and crack down on activists.
With so much change, how can Oxfam, a 75-year-old organization remain relevant and still make an impact on poverty, inequality, and injustice?
Our Strategic Plan puts it like this:
'By 2020, Oxfam will have contributed to achieve more profound and lasting change in the lives of people living with poverty and injustice. We will have done this at a far greater scale by creating a world-wide influencing network (WIN) of integrated country based teams, united by a common vision for change, adequately resourced, able to use the full range of influencing techniques at their disposal, and actively participating in a wider movement to fight against the injustice of poverty.'
Step one? We are putting the strength, reach, and resources in the hands of those best-placed to make real change. We've created independent Oxfam affiliates in countries like Brazil, South Africa, and India. We're moving our Oxfam International headquarters from Oxford to Nairobi.
We're thinking big. Our influencing strategies extend beyond research, advocacy and public campaigning
With those teams in place, we're also putting more of Oxfam's 'influencing' work into the hands of country teams. We're building a world-wide influencing network, through which Oxfam affiliates and country teams can join with civil society and other organizations around the world to support the voices of marginalized people. We hope this will also enable more agile and decentralized influencing and calculated risk-taking.
We're thinking big. Our influencing strategies extend beyond research, advocacy and public campaigning. We're also working with partners to:
Change the social norms and behaviours that underlie poverty.
Strengthen civil society and citizens' voice.
Scale up innovative solutions based on Oxfam's or others experience of implementing development and humanitarian programs.
Open political spaces by bringing together governments, private sector and civil society organisations, and others.
Country staff are integrating influencing with their humanitarian and development work into a single 'one programme' country strategy. We also intend to generate a body of critical evidence to test our assumptions about how change happens so we can strengthen our strategy.
Future blog posts in this series will explore the vital and challenging process of influencing from local to global
That's the vision. But will this be an appropriate and effective response to our changing world? How will our vision translate into practice? Future blog posts in this series will explore the vital and challenging process of influencing from local to global with examples from Oxfam and elsewhere.
Are you a practitioner, researcher, policy maker or other professional involved in influencing? We are interested to hear about the influencing strategies you use, their effectiveness and the challenges you have encountered, comment below.
The Enough campaign to end violence against women and girls, led by low and middle income country programs, is one example of Oxfam's Worldwide Influencing Network in action.
