THE character of the people before the flood as given by the unerring pen of inspiration is explicit. And God said, "My Spirit shall not always strive with man for that he also is flesh. And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence. And God looked upon the earth, and behold it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth." Here the faithful historian with an inspired pen draws the portrait of Noah's day, when we are told that the heart of man was deceitful above all things and desperately wicked.
The nature of man unrenewed by grace is not changed in our day from what it was in Noah's time. Christ has said a similar state of things would be prior to his second coming as existed before the flood. In the days of Noah men followed the imagination of their own hearts, and the result was unrestrained crime and wickedness. The same state of things will exist in this age of the world. But will not some of the learned, the honored of the world, accept the message of warning in these last days? Will the world as a majority perish in the general impending ruin? How was it in Noah's day? as it was then Christ has said it should be. Of that vast population there was only eight persons who believed the message of Noah and obeyed God's word. In the world to day the majority choose the broad road to death because the way of life is too narrow for them to walk in with their dishonesty, avarice, pride and iniquity. Now, as in the days of Noah, the overwhelming majority are opposed to the saving truth and are fascinated with lying fables.
Many now are convicted, and God's Spirit is striving with them, but they will not heed the invitations of mercy. Men who make high profession of wisdom and of godliness transgress the law of God without compunctions of conscience. One marked feature of Noah's day was the intense worldliness of the inhabitants. They were eating and drinking, planting and building, marrying and giving in marriage, not that these things were of themselves sins, but they were, although lawful in themselves, carried to a high degree of intemperance. The appetite was indulged at the expense of health and reason. This constant indulgence of their sinful desires corrupted them and defiled the earth under them. The same evils intensified exist in our world to day. Men are blind to reason and the result of indulging perverted appetite. The world is the god of nine tenths of professed Christians. The indulgence of appetite is carried to the greatest excess. Tobacco, wine, liquor and drugs are added to the list of a feverish stimulating diet.
Professed followers of Christ are today eating and drinking with the drunken while their names stand in honored church records. The gratification of perverted appetite leads directly to the indulgence of unholy passions. Many feel under no moral obligation to curb the appetite or the base passions. They are slaves to perverted appetite. They are not living for the future life. They are rushing on as did the inhabitants of the world in Noah's day, living for this present existing world regardless that their deeds of the present every day life casts its shadow forward in the future, and the retribution will be in accordance with their works. They are as disobedient today in reference to God's laws as they were in Noah's time. While in the world they will not keep separate from its pollutions but will be of the world, notwithstanding God has expressly forbidden this union with the world.
As in Noah's day, philosophers and men of science see nature's laws but cannot carry their wisdom higher and see beyond these laws nature's Lawgiver. Wise worldly men seek to practically reason out or theorize in regard to nature without taking the God of nature into the account. Many will resist God's warnings and array themselves against his law because their sinful life cannot harmonize with the pure principles of God's moral government. They consider it too hard work to reform their lives, therefore they endeavor to make the law of God meet their low standard of morals. It was God's purpose in sending Noah to warn the world that the people should see their sins and awaken to a sense of their crimes and great wickedness and be alarmed and fear and repent that God might pardon and save them.
As the time of Christ's second appearing draws near, the Lord sends his servants with a warning message to the world to prepare for that great event. As the world have been living in transgression of the law of God, in mercy he sends a message of warning to arouse their attention and hold before them the law of God as a mirror into which they can look and discover the defects in their moral character. If they will at once make earnest efforts to remedy these defects, by repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ, they will be pardoned through the merits of his blood, for this is the only hope of the transgressor of the law of God. But as in the days of Noah, there is with the majority a total disbelief of the testimony God has in mercy sent to warn the world of her coming destruction.
When Noah proclaimed the solemn message, yet an hundred and twenty years the judgments of God in a flood of water should destroy the world and its inhabitants, men would not receive it, so it is at the present time. Those who warn the transgressors of law to repent and turn to their allegiance for the Lawgiver is coming to punish the disobedient, will plead and entreat and warn the majority in vain. Peter describes the attitude of the world in reference to the last message: "There shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water; whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished; but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up."
The men of Noah's time, in their philosophy and worldly wisdom, thought God could not destroy the world with a flood, for the waters of the ocean could not be sufficient for this. But God made the philosophy and science of men foolishness when the time had fully come to execute his word. The inspired pen describes the earth as standing out of the water and in the water. God had his weapons concealed in the bowels of the earth to compass her destruction. And when the great men and the wise men had reasoned before the world of the impossibility of its destruction by water, and the fears of the people were quieted, and all regarded Noah's prophecy as the veriest delusion, and looked upon Noah as a crazy fanatic, God's time had come. He hid Noah and his family in the ark, and the rain began to descend, slowly at first; the jeers and scoffings did not cease for a time, but soon the waters from heaven united with the waters of the great deep; the waters under the earth burst through the earth's surface, and the windows of heaven were opened, and man with all his philosophy and so called science, finds that he had not been able in his worldly wisdom to comprehend God. He found too late that his wisdom was foolishness; that the Lawgiver is greater than the laws of nature. The hand of omnipotence is at no loss for ways and means to accomplish his purposes. He could reach into the bowels of the earth and call forth his weapons, waters there concealed, to aid in the destruction of the corrupt inhabitants of the old world. But let us all bear in mind that those who perished in that awful judgment had an offer of escape.
The faithful Noah had spoken to them the words of God, assuring them if they would repent of their sins and believe the testimony of warning they might find a shelter in the ark and be saved from the destructive storm that was soon coming. As it was in the days of Noah so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. Water will never destroy the earth again, but the weapons of God are concealed in the bowels of the earth which he will draw forth to unite with the fire from heaven to accomplish his purpose in the destruction of all those who would not receive the message of warning and purify their souls in obeying the truth and being obedient to the laws of God. The voice of warning is now being heard inviting the people to escape and find refuge, not in the ark but in Jesus Christ. How will the warning be treated? Christ tells us just as it was received in the days of Noah. Thousands will deride the message of mercy and salvation, and turn aside, one to his merchandise, another to his farm, and give little or no attention to these things. They will be occupied with eating, drinking, and dressing, planting and building as in the days of Noah, as though no sound of alarm had ever saluted their ears.
The same reasoning will be heard today from worldly wise men, from the unfaithful watchmen in the pulpits, "My Lord delayeth his coming, all things remain as they were from the beginning. You have no need to be alarmed, there is to be a thousand years of temporal millennium before Christ will come. All the world will be converted. Peace, peace; you should pay no regard to these fanatics, who are only alarmists." The world generally will despise prophecy and abuse those who speak to them the words of God, rebuking their sins and calling them to repentance. Timothy writes: "This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof. What a picture is here drawn by the apostle in regard to the days, just prior to the coming of the Son of man." The millennial glory that is predicted by the false shepherds of today does not harmonize with the words of the inspired apostle. The question is asked, When the Son of man cometh shall he find faith on the earth?
The deceived shepherds, deceiving their flocks in their turn, are the ones whose voices are heard prophesying the conversion of the world crying peace, and safety. The inspired apostle assures us we may look for wickedness to be continually increasing as the end approaches. The description given by Timothy of the sins to be found among those who have a form of godliness is sufficient to place the students of the Bible on their guard that they be not deceived in regard to the true state of things in our world by the syren songs of the sleepy shepherds crying peace and safety when destruction is just ready to burst upon the world. While Satan is working to quiet the fears and consciences of men, he is making his last master stroke to retain his power over a world which he sees is about to pass from his grasp--He has come down in great power working with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish. His lying wonders will deceive many.
Philosophers and men of science will endeavor by their reasoning to show that the world cannot be destroyed by fire. They will plead that it is inconsistent with the laws of nature. But the God of nature, the maker and controller of nature, can use the works of his own hands to serve his purpose. Those who would be loyal to the God of heaven will not allow that interpretation of prophecy which will do away the force of the lesson God designed the prophecy should convey. As the contemporaries of Noah laughed to scorn that which they termed fear and superstition in the preacher of righteousness, so will the solemn messages of warning be ridiculed in our day.

Q: What is the entry criteria for lightning-ready app I searched through the internet and was surprised that I didn't see much related information. As Eric mentioned in my other post: Any good reason for using lightning component . Every app should be lightning ready before 2017-3. So it is almost critical for us to prepare for it now. What is the criteria for an app to be lightning ready in App Exchange?

A: We need to run our app in Lightning Experience Enable org and fix if something is broken. Then we need to update Salesforce that our app is lightning ready.
As per Salesforce docs:
How do I get my apps ready for the new Lightning Experience?
User experience (UX) is one of the most important aspects of this initiative — it's practically in the name: "Lightning Experience". Accordingly, we want to help our partners evolve their applications to this new era of UX.
So what does this mean for your existing app? Many apps feature customizations, including custom objects, custom buttons, Visualforce pages. In preparation for the Lightning Experience release, all partners should test their apps to ensure functionality continues working properly in the new experience. Partners can also get their apps designated as "Lightning Ready". Apps that are Lightning Ready will work in Lightning Experience and offer a more consistent experience with other Lightning pages. If your app uses standard Salesforce UI, objects, page layouts, but no custom Visualforce pages, then you should expect them to display properly in the new Lightning Experience with the new look and feel. In general, Visualforce pages will work in the new UI, but they should be tested to ensure all features are properly supported and functioning correctly.
To earn the Lightning Ready certification, Visualforce pages in apps should be updated to offer a more consistent user experience with Lightning. To assist in this effort, we are publishing the Lightning Design System, which is formal documentation around all the styles that make up the Lightning Experience across all form factors. The Lightning Design System is available to all, and will be made GA through an open-source project on GitHub for Dreamforce. It can be used to design apps built on the Salesforce Platform as well as on other platforms. https://www.lightningdesignsystem.com/
Are you ready for the new lightning experience

A: You will find all the resources here to help you understand what is lightning ready
For lightning Ready Certification, here are key things SFDC looks in
    your application :

*

*Use SLDS Design Systems for CSS in your visualforce.

*Test for supported browsers .(IE,Firefox,Chrome,Safari)

*Make sure your app is responsive and at a viewport minimum of 1024px
wide and a maximum of 1920px wide.

*Make sure that your app responds elegantly when the tabs are switched

*Do use the new Salesforce Sans typeface. It should not be accompanied by any other typeface, with the exception of your logotype.

Try to Align with Basic Page Layouts like salesforce Edit ,List view and Detail View on Lightning experience .

In short your App should be functional in Lightning Experience and the CSS should match as closely as possible to Lightning Experience .
You will need to open a case with support and they will do a sanity check to see if your app works in lightning experience and you are good to go .Please note you need not build true lightning components to pass lightning ready check .

A: We need following things to get Lightning ready designation.

*

*App should be responsive and at a view-port minimum of 1024px wide and a maximum of 1920px wide.

*App should be functional in Lightning Experience and the CSS should match as closely as possible to Lightning Experience.

*Update App Exchange listing with new screenshots showing how is app running in Lightning Experience.

*Log a case to SF and get your Lightning Ready designation -

Please find the reference here.

Parenting >> blog >> Babycare >> No More Diaper Woes for me and My Baby..
Being a mother is all about doing the best for your child…isn't it? One of the most important things for working mothers like me is to have that peace of mind (especially when leaving home) that my baby is happy and comfortable in my absence – and baby's comfort has a lot to do with diaper comfort. Since I leave Yeshvika, my 9-month-old daughter, with a caretaker, one of my main concerns is whether the diaper has been changed on time or not; the first thing I do - without fail - when I get home is to check my daughter's bottoms for any rash-like thing!
So naturally I'm on a lookout for the best in diaper comfort at pharmacy stores that shelf diapers. Recently, on one such lookout, I came across the recently launched Pampers Baby Dry Pants – and it said on the packaging that it has "extra absorb channels" – It had me intrigued! And though I am hesitant to try out new things on Yeshvika, I wanted to see what kind of comfort this technology can bring to my angel – the packaging also said, "1 Pampers = 1 dry night". I bought a pack right away and decided to give it a try.
It has now been just 3 days-4 nights that I have been using Pampers new diapers, and before I share my experience, I would first like to share a secret wish that I've nurtured since I became a mom: It's been my wish to cuddle Yeshvika and sleep peacefully through the night and I mean "through the night". None of the diapers till now have given me that full-night sleep luxury. I always get up 1-2 times a night to change my daughter's diapers, which obviously disturbs her sleep as well. And then we both wake up in the morning, feeling not-so-fresh.
The first night with Pampers Baby Dry Pants went like this: Around 8 pm on a Saturday night, I bathed Yeshvika and dressed her for the night, and put on the new Pampers Pants. On first touch, the diaper actually felt softer than the others from inside as well as the waist. After I put her to sleep, my husband and I fixed some dinner and called it a day.
Before shutting eye, sometime around 11 pm, I woke my daughter for a feed, and this is the time I usually change her diaper too. But, the new Pampers felt so light and comfortable that I just fed her and put her back to sleep.
Now my mother-brain was quite restless as I had not changed her diaper, and at about 1 am, I checked again. The diaper still did not feel heavy and Yeshvika was sleeping peacefully. As was my habit, I couldn't help but check again at 4 am – it was still okay! I fed her at 6 am, and both of us slept off again (It was a Sunday so I happily tucked into bed again). It was about 8:30 am when Yeshvika woke up and that's when I changed her diaper. I was expecting the diaper area to be wet, but I was pleasantly surprised (and relieved!) to find that her diaper area was as nicely dry as could be! Any mom would relate to my inner joy at that moment!
And yes – my secret wish had been heard! Adding to my delight was the fact that my daughter was not irritated; on the contrary, she woke up rested, smiling and looked as fresh as a daisy!
The next night, I decided not to check and worry myself on the diaper front, and we both slept the entire night, only waking up for the feeds as per routine. Yeshvika once again woke up happy, fresh and energetic. What more could I possibly ask for – my diaper woes were gone – for good!
I would attribute the dryness and lightness to the unique 3-channel technology that offers 3 times fast absorbing layers. These layers worked wonderfully to keep my baby's bottoms dry, and her, a tad more comfortable. Add to that the diaper's breathable material with micro pores that keep all the wetness away from the baby's skin – leaving it dry, soft and supple. Plus, the soothing in-built baby lotion prevents any rashes that may arise from the friction of the diaper getting rubbed against wet skin.
As for the day, I learnt from Yeshvika's nanny that the new diapers don't leak when she falls on the hips in her numerous attempts to stand on her own, or crawls to places unimaginable. There had been instances earlier where there had a leak or two, or the diaper sagged from a particular point. Nanny is happy too since my daughter is a lot more peaceful - in all respects (none of the old crankiness!) and her work load and stress has reduced too – a) She does not have to keep checking the diaper constantly – and b) The possibility of rashes and itchy bottoms has become almost nil. With the new Pampers, it's all a thing of the past.
I can't thank Pampers enough – for the nights that I sleep and the days I work without worrying about my daughter's bottom getting rash or something. And the best part, of course, is the gleaming, happy face I see every morning and evening. Since Yeshvika sleeps well at night and during her daytime naps, she is now chirpy and playful when I get back from office and we are creating happier memories together.
I pat my back too for switching to the new Pampers Baby Dry Pants – it has been one of my finest decisions since I became a mom!
Hi Swati, thanks for sharing though my son is no longer in this age.
Thanks Swati! I would check these out and see the difference.
@Bhumika yes diapers are safe for your baby. Especially if the diapers are super-absorbent.
I agree with Shreya! Wish we also had such revolutionary products at our time. Then maybe we could also have had peaceful sleep at night.
Hi Swati, thank you for sharing your story here with us. I am also going to buy this for my son. It is quite disturbing to keep waking up in the middle of the night to check the diapers.
Hey is this product available for a year old baby as well? I am still using the diapers in the night and it seems a good product for my daughter.
I wish I had such revolutionary products when my sons were growing up. But maybe Pampers will come handy when I have grandchildren.
I believe every mother has been through the diaper woes . Pampers Baby Dry Pants seems to be a big relief. I am sure after using it mothers would be able to enjoy that full-night sleep luxury. thanks Swati C Sharma for taking us through yr personal experience and sharing with us the benefits of using it.

10 Key Points on Immigration
With 1 in 20 of London's population now a refugee or asylum seeker, MigrationwatchUK seeks enquiry into 'misuse' of NHS
With 1 in 20 of the population of London now either a refugee or asylum seeker, a leading migration think-tank is calling for an immediate investigation into the impact this is having on health provision in the capital.
Giving evidence to an investigative review of asylum seekers and refugees in London by the Public Service Committee of the London Assembly on 26th November, Sir Andrew Green, Chairman of Migrationwatch UK, will say that a full and honest debate about the impact of current large scale immigration into Britain - particularly London and the south east where 2/3rds of migrants settle - requires that the costs be considered alongside any benefits.
'In a recent report we said that Government claims that migrants bring net benefit to the nation's finances are quite wrong. They did not include many of the associated costs,' said Sir Andrew.
One very important omission was the cost of extra health facilities for these additional residents - some 350,000 to 400,000 people according to the Assembly's own estimates - equivalent to about two London Boroughs.
Those who are here legally are rightly entitled to health care but, over the last 10 years a third of a million asylum claimants have been refused while there is no evidence that they have left the UK. Others are smuggled in but there is nothing to stop them claiming health care. Nor is there any effective check on tourists, visitors or those who overstay their visas.
Sir Andrew said that he was very surprised that the objectives of the committee's review dealt only with the provision of services and support for asylum seekers and refugees. The major impact on London's indigenous population was being completed ignored.
'In fact, there is a great deal of anecdotal evidence of widespread abuse of the NHS by those not entitled to its benefits,' said Sir Andrew. 'People working in the service are bound by confidentiality agreements and by data protection. The result is that a serious problem is simply being covered up and as a consequence is one which the authorities are failing to address,' he said.
'I am therefore calling for an immediate investigation of the misuse of the NHS. Its outcome will be highly relevant to the debate on entitlement cards. This issue has been ducked for too long. It must now be tackled. We must not leave the field open to those - particularly on the far right - who are exploiting the concerns of the people of London for their own ends,' he said.

Happy Saturday, blog friends! I hope that you are having an awesome weekend so far! Today I wanted to pop in and share some cards that I've created using the Pinkfresh Studio Holiday Vibes paper collection. We introduced that we will be offering our paper collections for sale on our website now in bundle form! And we are kicking it off with Black Friday savings on the Holiday Vibes bundles!
Now thru Sunday at 11:59pm CST, use the code HVIBES50OFF to get 50% off our Holiday Vibes bundles - we have three options. There is an embellishments bundle, and then you can add the 12x12 paper pack or 6x6 paper pad...or grab all three! Just be sure to use the code upon checkout - that is the only way to get the 50% savings!
You may not know, but I started out in this industry as a scrapbooker. And while my scrapbooking style is a little rusty, I do still love creating with paper & embellishments...and hope to showcase this style more from now on. So for today I created three super fun cards using the Holiday Vibes collection without any stamping! There is a little diecutting on the card with the mountains, but other than that it is all elements from the collection and some fussy cutting!
With scrapbooking style, it is a little harder to write up tutorials on how to create the cards. It is mostly just following your intuition & style on where you want to place and tuck things. I have individual images of each card below, and I will try to give a brief overview of how I created it!
For this first card, I used the border of snowflakes on the 6x6 paper, and just started building the card up from there by adding some diecut snowflakes, puffy stickers, epoxy badges and a chipboard arrow. I accented with some iridescent flat backed jewels. I did add some ruffled tulle to the left side of the card to give it some added texture & femininity.
For this card I built a scene first from some of the 6x6 patterned papers. I diecut the mountains using a WPlus9 die, and layered them together. I glittered the strip of paper that is meant to be the ground to make it feel a little bit icy or snowy. Then I just layered everything to an A2 card base, creating this sweet wintry scene.
For this final card, I fussy cut the hexagons & holly leaves from 12x12 paper, then layered the card as shown. I used some diecut ephemera for the holiday lights, then tucked some wooden buttons & enamel dots here & there. The final step was adding some red jewels to the holly berries!
I hope that you like my fun Holiday Vibes cards! Be sure to grab the Holiday Vibes bundles for yourself at this great Black Friday Sale pricing of 50% off!

The Data Security Law of the People's Republic of China (; referred to as the Data Security Law or DSL) governs the creation, use, storage, transfer, and exploitation of data within China. The law is seen to be primarily targeted at technology companies which have grown increasingly powerful in China over the years. The law is part of a series of interlocking but related national security legislation including the National Security Law of the People's Republic of China, Cybersecurity Law and National Intelligence Law, passed during Xi Jinping's administration as part of efforts to strengthen national security .

Provisions
The law controversially requires data localisation of data collected by foreign and domestic entities on Chinese citizens. The law prohibits the export of data by technology companies without first the completion of a "cybersecurity review", the process of which is vague and still being developed. In addition, foreign judicial authorities are prohibited from requesting data on Chinese citizens without first seeking permission from Chinese authorities.

Reactions
Carolyn Bigg of law firms DLA Piper Hong Kong stated that the law represents: "another important piece in the overall data protection regulatory jigsaw in China", making it: "complex" and "increasingly onerous" for international businesses to navigate through. Chinese technology company stocks fell in reaction to the passing of the law while tech companies such as Meituan, Alibaba and Ant Financial were all placed under regulatory scrutiny prior to its passing. The law is seen to have wide-ranging implications and is seen as another step in the increasing lawfare between China and the United States in areas of trade, intellectual property and national security since the beginning of the US-China trade war which began in 2016.

Feminine Textile Knowledge in Souss-Massa, Southern Morocco
By Myriem Naji, Mohamed Mouskite | 10 November 2020
Home » Feminine Textile Knowledge in Souss-Massa, Southern Morocco
This project aims to document textile production and use in Souss-Massa, southern Morocco, where women have long produced textiles for both domestic consumption and the market. This documentation will be generated in collaboration with the practitioners of two NGOs and several rural communities. Souss-Massa is characterised by an heterogenous population of oasis agriculturalists and mountain pastoralists (Berber, Arab, Jewish, Black native people and ex-slaves) who have traded with desert pastoralists for centuries. This ethnic and cultural heterogeneity is reflected in the variety of textile techniques (weaving, braiding, embroidery) and materials (wool, goat hair, vegetal fibres) women use. Yet, this knowledge and the spiritual and social values associated with textiles have not been thoroughly documented and are today endangered by processes of modernisation.

The second aim, through the co-construction of documentation with communities, is to raise their awareness about the value of their heritage. Methodology includes technical observation, in depth-interviews and recording of practitioners making endangered textiles; photo-elicitation and reconstruction of textiles no longer made or used; inventory of textile terminology and verbal data. These digital assets, consisting of written reports, photographs, audio and video recordings will be made available through the EMKP Digital Repository and several Souss-Massa museums, including in Tiznit and Tata.
In terms of museography, these assets will serve to renew the interpretation of textiles in museums. Academically this project aims to advance our understanding of the history of textiles in the region and beyond.

Q: Google authentication in ASP.NET Core without ASP.NET Identity Is it any way to implement authentication via Google in ASP.Net core without ASP.NET Identity?
I have implemented authentication based on cookies like this:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/authentication/cookie?tabs=aspnetcore2x
And I need to add Google authentication to project.

A: Yes of course. Here is a summary of one way you could go about this.
You can call the OAuth2 authentication server APIs directly, and write custom attributes / handlers / filters in .NET to integrate with that functionality and control access to your resources accordingly.
https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2WebServer
I believe the current endpoints that Google provide for their explicit grant / server authentication flow are as follows:

*

*Login: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth

*Token: https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token

*Details: https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v1/people/me
You can discover more details about the specific HTTP request and responses in the above link, but that's the general gist of OAuth2 for web server, as I understand it :)
Back in your core application you can then write custom handler / filter / attribute code to handle the authentication and redirection. Some example .NET core code can be found here:
https://ignas.me/tech/custom-authentication-asp-net-core-20/

A: I wanted to know the same thing and couldn't find any answers on the web, so I cloned the Microsoft.AspNetCore.Security (v2.1) repo to see if I could figure out how it worked. I believe this is what you are looking for. Add this to your ConfigureServices method in the Startup.cs file.
      services.AddAuthentication(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
            .AddCookie(o => o.LoginPath = new PathString("/login"))
            // You must first create an app with Google and add its ID and Secret to your user-secrets.
            // https://console.developers.google.com/project
            .AddGoogle(o =>
            {
                o.ClientId = "YOUR_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID";
                o.ClientSecret = "YOUR_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET";
                o.AuthorizationEndpoint += "?prompt=consent"; // Hack so we always get a refresh token, it only comes on the first authorization response
                o.AccessType = "offline";
                o.SaveTokens = true;
                o.Events = new OAuthEvents()
                {
                    // There are a number of (optional) events you may want to connect into and add your own claims to the user, or handle a remote failure, etc.
                    OnRemoteFailure = HandleOnRemoteFailure,
                    OnCreatingTicket = HandleOnCreatingTicket
                };
                o.ClaimActions.MapJsonSubKey("urn:google:image", "image", "url");
            });

If you want to intercept some of the events to add additional claims to a user, or store them off in a database to apply app level authorization, you can connect in to various OAuthEvents. I placed the following methods at the bottom of the Startup.cs file, inside the Startup Class.
    private async Task HandleOnCreatingTicket(OAuthCreatingTicketContext context)
    {
        var user = context.Identity;
        // please use better logic than GivenName. Demonstration purposes only.
        if(user.Claims.FirstOrDefault(m=>m.Type==ClaimTypes.GivenName).Value == "MY_FAVORITE_USER")
        {
            user.AddClaim(new Claim(ClaimTypes.Role, "Administrator"));
        }

        await Task.CompletedTask;
    }

    private async Task HandleOnRemoteFailure(RemoteFailureContext context)
    {
        // add your logic here.
        await Task.CompletedTask;
    }

Finally, you will need to add a couple of controller actions. I put mine in an AccountController.cs file like this:
public class AccountController : Controller
{
    [AllowAnonymous]
    [Route("/login")]
    public async Task<IActionResult> Login()
    {
        if (User == null || !User.Identities.Any(identity => identity.IsAuthenticated))
        {

            // By default the client will be redirect back to the URL that issued the challenge (/login?authtype=foo),
            // send them to the home page instead (/).
            string returnUrl = HttpContext.Request.Query["ReturnUrl"];
            returnUrl = string.IsNullOrEmpty(returnUrl) ? "/" : returnUrl;
            await HttpContext.ChallengeAsync("Google", new AuthenticationProperties() { RedirectUri = returnUrl });
        }

        return View();
    }

    [Authorize]
    [Route("/logout")]
    public async Task<IActionResult> Logout()
    {
        await HttpContext.SignOutAsync(CookieAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationScheme, new AuthenticationProperties() { RedirectUri="/" });

        return View();
    }
}

I also put a couple of simple views so that once logged-out, a user could click a link to return to home, or to login again or as another user, etc.
This seemed to work for me.

ESC not only installs and services fire detection systems of all kinds as well as automatic fire suppression systems for commercial kitchens, manufacturing, and other purposes, but we also provide a manual means where you can fight a fire where and when it begins–fire extinguishers.
If you own the property, or if you are the renter, it's your responsibility to see that the fire extinguishers in your controlled area are properly inspected and cared for. However, the person who does the inspection must be trained and certified to do the work.
"Persons training to become certified shall be permitted to perform maintenance and recharging of extinguishers under the direct supervision and and in the immediate presence of a certified person" (7.1.2.1.1, NFPA 10).
For more information, contact our office at 614-754-1393 or send us an email at ESC@Tpromo.Com.
According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) of Quincy, Mass., "A portable fire extinguisher can save lives and property by putting out a small fire or containing it until the fire department arrives; but portable extinguishers have limitations. Because fire grows and spreads so rapidly, the #1 priority for residents is to get out safely" (http://bit.ly/2Hw49KM). However, unless fire code is observed where it involves installation, the integrity of a building can be placed at risk.
ESC's fire extinguisher techs are factory trained and Ohio Fire Marshal Certified. You can rest assure that when ESC's on the job that your new fire extinguishers will be installed properly to current fire code.
A long time ago, the fire protection industry recognized the need to classify extinguishers according to the many kinds of burning materials encountered in a fire. For example, Class A, water-type fire extinguishers cannot be used on the electrical fires because the extinguisher operator could be seriously injured by the conduction of electricity by the stream of water from their extinguisher. Instead, a Class C fire extinguisher will work best. Another example, a raging fire in a manufacturing plant with flammable metals, such as magnesium, should be fought with a Class D fire extinguisher (see chart below).
If you have any questions, please use the handy form below. I look forward to serving your fire extinguisher needs. –John Larkin, ESC Senior Partner.

Full-year 2018 GAAP earnings were $8.89 per share, an increase of 12.1 percent. During the year, the company recorded a net tax expense of $0.29 per share related to TCJA. In addition, the company recorded an after-tax expense of $1.28 per share related to its first quarter 2018 legal settlement. Full-year 2017 GAAP earnings were $7.93 per share, which included a $1.24 per share net tax expense related to TCJA.
Excluding the above items, 2018 adjusted earnings were $10.46 per share, an increase of 14.1 percent, as referenced in the "Supplemental Financial Information Non-GAAP Measures" section. During 2018, the company recorded an earnings benefit of $0.50 per share from the divestiture of its communication markets business, net of related restructuring actions.
Sales increased 3.5 percent to $32.8 billion and organic local-currency sales increased 3.2 percent. The combination of acquisitions and divestitures increased sales 0.1 percent.

The company's operating cash flow was $6.4 billion, contributing to conversion of 91 percent of net income to free cash flow for the year. In addition, 3M generated 22 percent return on invested capital. Refer to the "Supplemental Financial Information Non-GAAP Measures" section. The net impact from TCJA, Q1 2018 legal settlement, and communication markets divestiture gain, net of related actions, reduced full-year free cash flow conversion by 2 percentage points and reduced return on invested capital by 2 percentage points.
For the full year, 3M paid $3.2 billion in cash dividends to shareholders and repurchased $4.9 billion of its own shares.
The company updated its earnings and organic local-currency sales growth expectations to reflect the current external environment and to include the pending acquisition of the technology business of M*Modal which was previously excluded from guidance. Full-year 2019 earnings are now expected to be in the range of $10.45 to $10.90 per share, including a $0.10 per share earnings headwind from the M*Modal acquisition, versus a prior expectation of $10.60 to $11.05 per share. 3M also expanded its full-year organic local-currency growth expectation to a range of 1 to 4 percent versus 2 to 4 percent, previously.

(c) Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Therefore, ROIC should not be considered a substitute for other measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company defines ROIC as adjusted net income (net income including non-controlling interest plus after-tax interest expense) divided by average invested capital (equity plus debt). The Company believes ROIC is meaningful to investors as it focuses on shareholder value creation.
(d) In February 2018, 3M reached an agreement with the State of Minnesota that resolved the previously disclosed Natural Resource Damages (NRD) lawsuit filed by the State against the Company related to certain PFCs present in the environment. Under the terms of the settlement, 3M agreed to provide an $850 million grant to the State for a special "3M Water Quality and Sustainability Fund." This Fund will enable projects that support water sustainability in the Twin Cities East Metro region, such as continued delivery of water to residents and enhancing groundwater recharge to support sustainable growth. The projects will also result in habitat and recreation improvements, such as fishing piers, trails, and open space preservation. 3M recorded a charge of $897 million ($710 million after-tax), inclusive of legal fees and other related obligations, in the first quarter of 2018 associated with the resolution of this matter. In the fourth quarter of 2018, 3M recorded a related $60 million tax expense resulting from the Company's ongoing IRS examination under the Compliance Assurance Process (CAP) and new guidance released under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Also during the first quarter of 2018, 3M recorded a tax expense of $217 million related to a measurement period adjustment to the provisional amounts recorded in December 2017 from the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). In the fourth quarter 2018, 3M finalized the tax impact related to TCJA with a reversal of previously recorded tax expense in the amount of $41 million.
During the fourth quarter of 2017, 3M recorded a net tax expense of $762 million related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA). The expense was primarily related to the TCJA's transition tax on previously unremitted earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries and was net of remeasurement of 3M's deferred tax assets and liabilities considering the TCJA's newly enacted tax rates and certain other impacts. This provisional amount was subject to adjustment during the measurement period of up to one year following the December 2017 enactment of the TCJA, as provided by SEC guidance.
In addition to providing financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company also provides non-GAAP measures that adjust for the impacts of the NRD resolution and enactment/measurement period adjustments to the impact of the enactment of the TCJA. These items represent significant charges/benefits that impacted the Company's financial results. Operating income, operating income margin, effective tax rate, net income, and earnings per share are all measures for which 3M provides the GAAP measure and an adjusted measure. The adjusted measures are not in accordance with, nor are they a substitute for, GAAP measures. The Company considers these non-GAAP measures in evaluating and managing the Company's operations. The Company believes that discussion of results adjusted for these items is meaningful to investors as it provides a useful analysis of ongoing underlying operating trends. The determination of these items may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Total sales change is calculated based on reported sales results. The components of sales change include organic local-currency sales, acquisitions, divestitures, and translation. Organic local-currency sales includes both organic volume impacts (which excludes acquisition and divestiture impacts), and selling price changes. Acquisition and divestiture impacts are measured separately for the first 12 months post-transaction.
The Company consolidated its customer account activity in each country into centralized sales districts for certain countries that make up approximately 70 percent of 3M's 2017 international net sales. Expansion of these initiatives, which previously had been deployed only in the U.S., reduces the complexity for customers when interacting with multiple 3M businesses. 3M business segment reporting measures include dual credit to business segments for certain sales and related operating income. This dual credit is based on which business segment provides customer account activity with respect to a particular product sold in a specific country. The expansion of alignment of customer accounts within additional countries increased the attribution of dual credit across 3M's business segments. Additionally, certain sales and operating income results for electronic bonding product lines that were previously equally divided between the Electronics and Energy business segment and the Industrial business segment are now reported similarly to dual credit.
Certain shared film manufacturing and supply technology platform resources formerly reflected within the Electronics and Energy business segment were combined with other shared and centrally managed material resource centers of expertise within Corporate and Unallocated.
In addition, 3M adopted ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, effective January 1, 2018, on a retrospective basis. As a result, operating income for 3M's business segments has been revised to reflect non-service cost components of pension and postretirement net periodic benefit costs within other expense (income) net.
The financial information presented herein reflects the impact of the preceding changes for all periods presented. Refer to 3M's Current Report on Form 8-K furnished on March 15, 2018, for additional supplemental unaudited historical business segment net sales and operating income information. In addition, these business segment changes were reflected in 3M's Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 8, 2018, (which updated 3M's 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K) and 3M's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2018, June 30, 2018, and September 30, 2018.
(f) Corporate and Unallocated operating income was impacted of certain restructuring actions related to addressing corporate functional costs following the Communication Markets Division divestiture recorded in the second and fourth quarter of 2018. These actions, in addition to the legal settlement recorded in the first quarter of 2018, impacted 2018 operating income.


West Virginia's Attorney General had some words for striking teachers yesterday.
"Ohio County Schools officials continue to prepare for a planned two-day teacher walkout set for today and Friday, while teachers and school service employees are strategizing for additional rolling walkouts in selective counties starting Monday if the West Virginia Legislature fails to address their calls for lower health care premiums and higher pay.
These preparations come as West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey on Wednesday said the planned work stoppage is 'illegal' and his office stands ready to support any state agency in enforcing the law.
'Any such action would be consistent with my duty as attorney general to uphold the rule of law and designed so as to ensure our students have access to the education they are entitled to by our state's constitution,' Morrisey said.
Ohio County Schools Superintendent Kim Miller told board of education members called for a special meeting Wednesday morning the district plans to resume its regular schedule on Monday.
Members Sarah Koegler, Shane Mallett, Christine Carder and Tim Birch were present, while board president Zach Abraham participated by phone.
'Student safety is number one,' Miller said. 'We are asking people not planning to work Monday to use the call-out system so that we can continually monitor who is planning to come to work, and who is not.
One-time school events, however, such as the state wrestling tournament set for this weekend in Huntington, will go on as planned, but bus transportation will not be provided. School events that can be rescheduled will be moved to another time, she said.
Miller said she and other administrators understand the concept of a walkout or strike by public workers is against West Virginia law.

Even though he is just 19, Indiana University sophomore Charles Zayed has a history of marketing and selling things. "In high school, I was the social chair, and I marketed football and basketball games," Zayed says. When he came to IU, it seemed natural for him to take a major in marketing and professional sales at the Kelley School of Business.
During his freshman year, he often got hungry at night, but snacks like pizza, he says, can be expensive and take a long time to arrive. "I still wanted hot food, so I ordered a quesadilla maker from Amazon," Zayed says. Soon he was making quesadillas for his roommate as well. Then, others on his dorm floor were interested, so he decided to sell quesadillas to them. Eventually word about the quesadillas got out, and students from other dorms started showing up at his door. A business was born.
If he was going for positivity, then why name his business Awful Cloth? Zayed says he thought it would attract attention. And, he says, the word "awful" can be interpreted as awe-inspiring or full of awe. "It's about how people see you, it's your perspective on life," he says.
Zayed contacted a high school friend, Emmit Flynn, to help create the colorful look he wanted for his clothing line. Flynn, a sophomore at Fordham University in New York City, agreed to partner with Zayed and provide the colorful, hand-drawn images the clothing line features.

AA is fellowship helping men and women to share their trust, experience, and hope. This helps them to solve their common problem, which is alcoholism. AA is a unique fellowship founded in 1935. AA is not aligned with any group, division, political party, association or foundation. It seeks to avoid controversy and affiliation in order to focus on the task at hand. That is to guide addicts on the road to recovery. Furthermore, it neither supports nor restricts any causes. Their only goal is to remain sober and help other alcoholics achieve sobriety.
Alcoholics Anonymous is not a religious association nor is it associated with any religious body. It invites individuals from all religions. There is no discrimination. You don't need to join or become a member of anything to be a part. Anyone who wishes to be part of this community can be with no restrictions. There is no group leader either. AA is a positive community of alcoholics helping other alcoholics recover from alcoholism.
The only requirement for participation in this fellowship is the urge to quit drinking. There are no charges or fees for Alcoholics Anonymous. They are self-supporting through their own commitments.
According to an estimate approximately two million alcoholic people have recovered with the help of AA. AA is an informal society which includes people from all over the world. For instance, Australia has a community of over 18000 people attending AA. These members meet in nineteen hundred meetings held throughout the country. The number of meetings held in any given area depends on the number of members in that area.
How do Alcoholic People recover?
The members of this community recover with the support of the other members. There are no doctors, psychologists, counselors and clinics. There is no central power instructing members on how Alcoholics Anonymous groups should work. It is up to the individuals of every group to choose what they want to do. But this program has turned out to be so successful that every group basically follows the same steps.
AA works with the help of members recounting their stories of what they used to be, what changed them and what they are now. The Alcoholics Anonymous program, known as The Twelve Step program, gives a system to self-examine yourself and show you the road to recovery. All this in order to live an alcohol free life.
