Local News 25 December 2020
It's hard to believe that next week will mark the first anniversary of the bushfires that chewed their way through the Mallacoota district destroying more than 120 homes.
Over 200 properties were impacted by the devastating fires which cut Mallacoota off from the rest of East Gippsland after roads leading in were impacted by unstable roads and fallen trees.
The township of Mallacoota is home to about 1050 permanent residents and most were affected, either directly or indirectly by the fires in some capacity.
For those who lost their homes, the majority are still without them and are living with other family members, in temporary accommodation such as modular homes or caravans.
Some have packed up their cars and left, not sure if they will return.
Processing the heartbreak the fires wrought has been a nuanced process. Some have coped well, moved on with their lives, and put it down to a hiccup in their overall lives.
Others are still struggling to deal with the losses they suffered and the encroaching anniversary will force them to relive painful memories they'd sooner forget.
For the young people of Mallacoota, having somewhere to spend time and enjoy themselves away from what has been a particularly difficult year with the added burden of COVID, is important.
The Sanctuary Mallacoota Youth Group was set up just after the fires and has been a safe haven for young people to be together and support each other as they recover from the Black Summer bushfires.
It was formed in direct response to the bushfires and gives participants a place to express themselves, play music, make art or shoot a game of pool.
Last week The Sanctuary received a low-key visit by Australia' s Governor-General, David Hurley and his wife, Her Excellency, Mrs Linda Hurley.
It was the third attempt by the Governor-General to schedule a visit to Mallacoota, which was arguably the hardest hit by the bushfire catastrophe in East Gippsland, after the pandemic meant his planned trip had to be rescheduled.
Mr Hurley had a couple of games of pool with some of the youth at The Sanctuary, while Mrs Hurley led everyone in chorus with a rendition of 'You Are My Sunshine'.
The Governor-General told the Snowy River Mail, that it had been "a disruptive year for kids" but Mallacoota was in "recovery mode" and there was "an air of optimism" and support for one another as the community moved forward through the crisis.
The coordinator of The Sanctuary, 30-year-old Brodie Gaudion, described the Governor-General and Mrs Hurley's visit as "engaging".
During the bushfire crisis Ms Gaudion managed to evacuate to a refuge centre, set up in the township.
She said while her grandma's house burnt down, thankfully, grandma escaped in time.
Jya-Ruby Nation, who begins Year 11 next year, evacuated from Mallacoota on December 30 with her mother, sister and grandma, leaving behind her brother and father to defend their home.
It would be several weeks before the family would be reunited.
Ms Nation said it was a "scary" time leaving behind the male members of her family "but trusted them to be safe".
Airly Embleton-Mew, who begins Year 12 studies next year, said her family made it to the refuge centre in town at the height of the fires.
"It was packed and really smoky with about 1000 people there," Ms Embleton-Mew said.
While her family left the centre after four hours to return home, Ms Embleton- Mew stayed on as a volunteer for the next 14 hours.
Ms Embleton-Mew said she's "happy this year is over" and is "looking forward to new opportunities and growth" in 2021.
She says "everyone has been affected in some way" by the bushfires.
Ms Gaudion said for some trying to return to their normal lives has been difficult due to a lack of accommodation in Mallacoota.
"There are no rentals and accommodation is prioritised for tourists, rather than contributing to the community," she said.
Ms Nation is aware of people who have left Mallacoota, namely health care professionals, and some from the school community, because of the absence of accommodation.
"They'd like to stay here, but they can't unless they live with their parents," she said.
Australia's Governor-General, David Hurley and his wife, Linda Hurley, with the coordinator of the The Sanctuary Mallacoota Youth Group, Brodie Gaudion, and Mallacoota P-12 College students, Jya-Ruby Nation and Airly Embleton-Mew in the township last week. K476-8276

The indigenous people who lived in the plains of Uruguay were decimated in the three hundred years following the colonization in the 16th century. The last mass killing took place in 1831, after the country's independence in 1825. In the 19th century many Europeans migrated to Uruguay. It was a politically stable and prosperous country with an advanced welfare system. In the 1960s an economic crisis occurred and a left-wing guerilla emerged, the Tupamaros. The movement was repressed by the army, which seized power in 1973. Under the military dictatorship, which lasted until 1984, huge human rights violations took place. Since then, Uruguay is again a functioning democracy. The economy is essentially agricultural, with some manufacturing industry. Export consists of meat, dairy and leather products, wool, etc. Uruguay is the smallest country in Latin America, and also the most secularized. The Catholic Church, which dates back to the beginning of colonization, is the largest church. The Methodists are the oldest Protestant church. There is a large Waldensian community, which is part of the Waldensian Church in Italy, and therefore also of the WCC. Pentecostals represent about 30 percent of the Protestant and Independent churches. The Federation of Evangelical Churches is the oldest ecumenical body. In 1998, a Council of Christian Churches was set up, with the participation of the Catholic and Anglican churches. There is also a Christian Association of Evangelical Churches, affiliated with the WEA. The Orthodox churches are the Ecumenical Patriarchate, Moscow Patriarchate, and Armenian Apostolic Church.

When I was young, I was actually afraid of going to the dentist. So much so that my parents sought out a pediatric dentist. There I found a place where I felt special and my confidence grew. From a fairly young age, I knew I wanted to be a pediatric dentist so that I could ease the fears of children who have dental fears and make going to the dentist a positive experience.
I feel that my practice is a place where a child can feel comfortable and cared for. My friendly, competent staff will help guide your little one during his or her dental visit.
I grew up in Seattle and proudly graduated from Franklin High School where I made lifelong friends and was inspired by great teachers and staff. After completing a bachelor's degree in biology at the University of California at Berkeley (Go Bears!), a Doctorate in Dental Medicine at Washington University in St. Louis, and a certificate in pediatric dentistry from Oregon Health & Science University, I returned home to work and be with family.
I practiced for more than seven years in Tacoma before opening my own Seattle Green Lake practice in 1996. I am grateful that my family is just a peaceful walk away, and I have the privilege of providing dental care for children in my community. I love that I love the people I work with, and that we have fun while we work together each day.
Please call my office with any questions you have. I appreciate your trust and the privilege of caring for your children.

Zamfara State Govt budgets 700m for legislative activities in 2021
By Ishaq Zaki
Gusau, Dec. 23, 2020 The Zamfara Government has budgeted N700 million for legislative activities in 2021.
Alhaji Shehu Anka, Clerk of the State House of Assembly, said this while speaking with newsmen in Gusau on Wednesday.
Anka said that money would be used for training and retraining of legislative staff as well as other legislative activities.
"In 2021, we plan to engage various stakeholders for the development of the legislative arm of government in the state.
"The House has started enacting laws to legalise operations of Government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the state, most of whom have been operating without laws," Anka said.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the House Committee on Finance and Appropriation, Mr Muhammad Ahmad has said that the House was determined to meet the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS) in processing the 2021 budget.
Ahmad said this while speaking with newsmen in Gusau, adding that the budget defence at the House was aimed at addressing challenges faced in the execution of 2020 budget due to COVID-19 pandemic.
"The 2021 budget is IPSAS compliant.
"We are working under the guidelines of IPSAS to comply with the state government's policies and global standard in this regard.
"Unlike the past, when we used to use analog system of budgeting, the 2021 budget is digital base and it must come into effect by Jan. 1, 2021,'' he said.
"Hence the need for every stakeholder to play his role before the end of 2020 for the state to benefit from the World Bank IPSAS compliance bonus.
"We are also placing emphasis on revenue generation to boost the state Internally Generated Revenue," he said.

The New Business of Sports Broadcasting
The growing influence of livestreaming and global OTT platforms is a sign of things to come for the sports world.
Brian Morris
The broadcast game is changing beyond recognition. We live in an age of on-demand and personalized media, where the consumer expects to be in control of their viewing schedule and for content to be available in a multiplicity of forms, at any time and on any device.
Inside the Tata Communications remote broadcast pod at LeMans.
These shifts impact all aspects of the entertainment industry. However, the sports industry, one of the largest broadcast businesses on the planet, has a whole host of new challenges and opportunities to contend with to maintain eyeballs. Chief among these is the idea that sporting events, which could always count on fans tuning in to traditional forms of broadcast at pre-set times, now need to broaden their horizons in terms of content distribution to grow their fan-bases and keep different types of fans engaged.
The fact is, loyal existing fans and those who are newer, casual followers of a sport want to engage with sports in many ways. Some might want to watch a match from start to finish, live on TV, others might just want to see a few highlights on Twitter. Some might not even be that fussed about the actual match, but more about the stars and personalities and seeing what they get up to on Instagram. So, broadcasters and content owners need to cater to all these fan types.
To win the viewership fight, TV networks and other content owners must figure out how to take advantage of technologies that create a high-quality, immersive viewing experience for fans across TV and OTT platforms. At the same time, broadcasters are still under pressure to increase production quality while keeping costs low to create high return for their sports investments.
A DELICATE BALANCE
A recent report from PwC projects the sports market to grow at a compound annual rate of 3.1% across the four segments, from $69.3 billion in 2017 to $78.5 billion in 2021, and that's just across North America.
Yet, in sports, traditional broadcasting methods are getting more and more restrictive and require a lot of investment. To deliver cost effective, high-quality content to audiences and create a viewing experience that is closest to witnessing a match live in the stadium, more and more broadcasters globally are embracing remote production. This means that production teams don't need to travel to each venue, and the different localized broadcasts can be brought to audiences more efficiently.
We helped Star Sports in India, the number one sports broadcaster in the country and subsidiary of 21st Century Fox, build this type of platform for their coverage of the VIVO Pro Kabaddi League, the second most popular League in India. During each match, the remote production team operate out of the Star Sports facility in Mumbai, working seamlessly with an on-site engineering team. They collaborate in real-time to deliver every moment of the action to more than 200 million viewers. The remote production platform ensures the smooth transmission of a combination of signals and camera feeds from each fixture because of its ultra-low, four-frames-per-second latency and hitless switching capability.
Another company leveraging technology for a better production experience is Dorna, the exclusive commercial and TV rights holder for the leading motorcycle racing championship MotoGP. To ensure a seamless viewing experience regardless of location, and bring fans high-quality racing content across different platforms, Dorna created a platform with live OTT video feeds with remote production and High-Dynamic-Range (HDR) imaging. The cloud-based platform combines traditional video contribution services and IP connectivity, allowing Dorna to manage and distribute MotoGP video feeds from any location to any device in perfect synchronicity. The platform also comes with extra bandwidth, which eliminates the common lag with OTT content delivery and ensures the reliable distribution of live video feeds—footage from the track and 360-degree on-board cameras as well as commentary—on a global scale and regardless of what device fans are using. With more efficient and cost-effective broadcast operations, Dorna gives MotoGP fans the high-quality, exhilarating viewing experiences they crave.
It all boils down to this: the lines between traditional and digital media platforms have blurred causing a seismic shift in the entertainment landscape. The growing influence of livestreaming and global OTT platforms is a sign of things to come for the sports world. From a commercial perspective, increasing the geographical footprint means more eyeballs, and more eyeballs means more revenue opportunities—whether it's through subscriptions, sponsorship, advertising or merchandising.
Every business, no matter the sector, needs to foster their existing customer base and attract new customers in order to grow, bring in new revenue streams and remain relevant in their market. In the sports industry, this has been achieved through the introduction of new platforms and formats to engage fans and make content more accessible for new audiences and keep existing fans loyal.
OTT platforms enable fans to watch any sport from anywhere, anytime. And over the next three to five years, the digital landscape will continue to grow, with OTT dominating the way sports is delivered to fans. Already, we're seeing streaming platforms like Facebook Watch, Bleacher Report and DAZN change the way the world watches sports, bringing sports into an OTT streaming model, and making it free and easy for people to watch.
The rise of digital has already led to wide national deals being penned for major broadcast properties. The NFL has experimented with broadcasting games on Twitter and for the 2018 season, Major League Baseball teamed up with Facebook to produce one afternoon game per week on its Facebook Watch platform. This meant that fans at work or on the go in some way without access to a TV could still tune in to see their team play. In addition, various professional sports organizations have started to branch out into streaming their own content including NFL Network and NBA TV.
Meanwhile in Europe, Amazon Prime Video secured rights to broadcast live and exclusive English Premier League matches from 2019/20. The three-year deal means that Amazon Prime subscribers who might not live in their favorite team's market, can watch 20 matches per season at no extra cost. And LaLiga, the top league in Spain, has signed a deal with Facebook that will see all 380 matches broadcast live on Facebook in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, Maldives, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. And UEFA made the biggest game of them all—the Champions League Final—available for free on YouTube. It was a move that made perfect business sense. As Europe's flagship spectacle, it gets them more eyeballs than any other event.
In sports, the live event will always be the main draw for fans, whether they are in-person at the stadium or watching it on TV. As the digital fan experience improves for fans, many sports leagues are looking at ways to enrich the live experience at venues to match up. We're seeing innovative applications of augmented reality (AR) and data analytics to give fans real-time insights on players and athletes, while apps are making the (often painful) process of buying refreshments at stadiums easier.
A critical piece of creating immersive experiences is bringing viewers closer to the action—making every shot, pitch and corner turn as real as possible. Racing circuits like F1 have been doing this successfully. At Tata Communications, we worked with F1 to create a 360-degree live video concept that puts viewers right in the heart of the action, and it showed how fans could be given greater control than ever to choose how they want to watch and engage with F1—jumping on-board a car, or seeing up-close as the engineering team strategizes in the pit lane.
Another fast-growing motorsport, Formula E, has shown how digital has the potential to increase fan interaction with the live action through its unique, and much-debated, FanBoost feature. Fans are given the opportunity to vote for the driver they wish to receive a FanBoost before the race. The three drivers with the most votes receive a power boost of 30kW, which lasts for five seconds at a time and provides extra speed that can be used to perform a crucial overtake.
Motorsports are not the only ones experimenting with new ways of growing their audiences commercially, geographically and demographically though more immersive and engaging content. When it comes to social media, most of the major U.S. sports organizations have experimented with Twitter live streams, and the Facebook Watch video platform now enables U.S. users to watch live events in a community setting.
In the modern broadcasting landscape, attempting to manage every channel and platform may not be the right strategy for every sport. Rather, for a sport with a well-established audience and fan-base such as F1, the digital and OTT strategy must be aligned with the new audience demographics that the sport is targeting. So, for example, if a sport wants to target the under-25 audience, they need to be on a platform like SnapChat.
Future generations of digital products that deliver premium, immersive experiences with either live or archived content enabled by a wide landscape of underlying technology include personalized video, 3D video, augmented and virtual reality, and augmented video. According to a PwC study, these platforms could grow to a potential global market size of more than $1 billion by 2025. That's a lot of potential viewers and fans that could be reached.
By tying together all the elements which make a great viewing experience, sports are deploying a variety of production and publishing strategies to create fever pitch on the plethora of digital channels available.

Every department at Care One at Teaneck tries hard to make my stay here successful. I am an observant Jew and it makes life a lot easier being in a kosher facility. The staff works hard to encourage community members to attend services on Shabbos. There is a beautiful shul in the facility where the minyanim are held. In addition, I was very pleasantly surprised by the very high quality of the rehab therapy. It is very nice to be able to get high quality therapy in a Jewish environment. I really like and benefit from Harold and Esther, my two lovely therapists. The nurses and aids are pleasant and very competent. I suffered a very severe stroke which left me completely paralyzed on my left side and the staff has worked very hard to get me better. I believe that I will be able to walk out of the facility unaided under my own power.


This cozy "I love sweater weather" linen calligraphy pillow is a great way to add some personality to your home. It looks perfect with your fall decor and is a simple way to change up your space. This farmhouse style pillow is also a special gift for fall obsessed friends. This pillow would look great in an armchair in the living room or cozied up in the corner of the couch!

Supermarkets, chemist and Bunnings among alert venues after NSW records five new COVID-19 cases
By Emily McPherson • Senior Journalist
Supermarkets, a chemist and a Bunnings are among the newly-alerted venues NSW Health has issued warnings for after the state today reported five new COVID-19 cases.
Three of the five cases announced today were transmitted locally in the community, while two others are overseas travellers in hotel quarantine.
Of the locally transmitted cases, one is linked to the Liverpool private clinic cluster, and the other is a social contact of a previously reported confirmed case of unknown source.
The third case is still under investigation.
NSW Health this afternoon said that anyone who attended the following venues is being considered a casual contact of the new cases and should monitor themselves for symptoms and be tested immediately if they develop.
- October 4: Big W, Carnes Hill between 3pm and 4.30pm
- October 4: Aldi, Edmondson Park between 6.30pm and 7pm
- October 6: Chemist Warehouse, Casula between 12.30pm and 1pm
- October 7: Bunnings, Crossroads between 2pm and 3pm
- October 9: Costco, Casula between 3pm and 3.30pm
The new public health alerts also come after a separate warning was today issued for anyone who visited Lakemba Radiology on October 1 from noon to 2.30pm.
Visitors to the clinic at that time are also being considered casual contacts.
In a statement to 9News this evening, Bunnings Regional Operations Manager Robyn Hudson emphasised that employees were wearing face masks on the day the customer who later tested positive visited the Crossroads store.
"Liverpool Health has advised that there is no need for customers or team to self-isolate," she said.
"Over the past few months, we've been taking extra steps in store to keep our team and customers safe including implementing extensive physical distancing measures and deep cleaning all stores daily as well as undertaking regular cleans throughout the day."
Ms Hudson added that the store has undergone four deep cleans in addition to routine daily cleaning since the visit, and said customers who were still concerned could call the NSW Health helpline on 131 450.

NSW Health has also upgraded its advice for travellers on a bus from Central to Strathfield. This bus was a train replacement service.
All passengers on the bus are now considered close contacts and are advised to immediately get tested for COVID-19 and self-isolate for 14 days.
Passengers should remain isolated for the full 14 days regardless of their test result.
One recently reported case has been excluded after further investigations, bringing the total number of cases in NSW to 4088.
NSW recorded three new cases yesterday - two of which were locally acquired.
Yesterday it was also revealed that a nurse at one of the city's busiest hospitals tested positive for coronavirus after having worked a shift whilst infectious.
The casual nurse worked a single shift at St Vincent's Hospital on Wednesday and treated a single patient with specialised care.
The nurse also had limited contact with a small number of colleagues.

Pumping oil and gas out of the ground also produces large volumes of water with undesirable quality known as produced water. Produced water commonly contains large amounts of dissolved salts, hydrocarbons, trace metals, and radionuclides. The United States produces 20 to 30 billion barrels of produced water every year. Much of the produced water is recycled by injecting it into the subsurface to maintain the pressure of oil reservoirs, which enhances oil recovery. An estimated 35 percent of produced water requires disposal because it cannot be recycled.
The most common methods of disposal are injecting produced waterinto the subsurface or evaporating it in disposal ponds. Prior to environmental regulations in the 1970s, produced water was disposed of by whatever was the most economical method. This sometimes included intentionally discharging the water on the ground, which could cause salt scars and surface-water and ground-water contamination. These past practices and current accidental releases of produced water are national issues that concern managers of Native American, Federal, and State lands, as well as oil and gas producers, mineral rights and lease owners, State and Federal regulators, and land owners. A growing concern facing land managers is the potential use of land for farming, housing, or other uses where oil and gas production is no longer active but may have left a legacy of undesirable environmental effects. Scientific studies are needed to evaluate the long-term and short-term effects of the disposal of produced water on soil, ground-water, and streams, and the natural processes that may mitigate the effects.
To address these concerns the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) initiated a multidisciplinary investigation to determine the fate and effects of the disposal of produced water on the near-surface environment. The investigation was a joint project of the USGS's Toxic Substances Hydrology Program and the Energy Resources Program, along with their partners. Field studies were conducted at Skiatook Lake in the southeastern part of the Osage Indian Reservation in northeastern Oklahoma. Results from the investigation helped provide some of the information environmental officials, land managers, petroleum companies, and land owners need to assess human and ecosystem impacts and to develop risk-based corrective actions to clean up contamination from produced water.

Dustin Pedroia texted Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora after 17-inning game vs. Twins; 'Just to make fun of me'

BOSTON — Red Sox manager Alex Cora heard from Dustin Pedroia after the Red Sox's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Twins at Target Field on Tuesday.
The game lasted 5 hours, 45 minutes.
"He text me after the extra inning game in Minnesota just to make fun of me," Cora said here at Fenway Park on Sunday. "Yeah, yeah. He was like, 'What did you have? Two Red Bulls and a coffee?' I was like, 'No, it just happens.' But he's doing OK. He's doing well. I have to give him a call during the week before we go to London."
Pedroia is on an indefinite break from baseball after another failed attempt to return from his knee injury. He said during a May 27 press conference he's unsure if he'll ever be able to play in the majors again.
He has appeared in just nine major league games since the start of the 2018 season after undergoing a left knee cartilage restoration procedure Oct. 25, 2017. He also had scar tissue removed during an arthroscopic surgery in late July 2018.
The longtime second baseman is home with his family in Arizona.
Cora also mentioned last weekend Pedroia took a vacation to California with his wife Kelli and their two sons to see his parents.
"I think it was like a lake or something. A Holiday Inn Express," Cora said June 15. "I was like, 'You're staying there?' He was like, 'Yeah. This is life.'"

The work of Sinéad Spelman (1978) focuses on the practice of drawing, writing and sculpture from a personal perspective which simultaneously investigates collective emotional states. Drawings with simple, bare, almost schematic strokes, embody characters who are in defiant resistence to ambiguous and disturbing situations to which subjects do not give in but do remain passive, with an indolence that, paradoxically, can be considered active; bodies often appear incomplete or amputated, rendering them useless for the production line. This dysfunctionality can be read, therefore, as a form of permanent strike.
For Nivell Zero, the artist explores these issues whilst experimenting with materials and formats and investigating the relationship between drawing and writing.

Q: How to find reference of an Activity from a library and close(finish()) the activity? Scenario :
An activity is displayed. It has a text box and a button. If you enter a special code in the textbox and click the button the activity closes after comparing the text logic. Simple! This has been implemented in the OnCLick() of the the activity.
Problem :
I have a library that handles all the the SMS receiver functionalities. The receiver remotely listens for a special incoming SMS. Once the special sms arrives, a library function (closeActivity) should either

*

*finish() the activity(described above) straightaway

*imitate the action of entering text + clicking button by getting a reference to the activity somehow?
I am fine with either. which ever is simpler and safer!
I just need to know how/where/what code to write in the library so that it can finish() the activity!
Assumption: The activity is always displayed and the system is not stacking it automatically!

A: Can there be several instances of the Activity?
If not, make it a singleton, then reference it from anywhere with MyActivity.getInstance().
Best regards.

A: Why dont you try to use intents? esp broadcast intents.. Fire the broadcast intent from library and get it in ur activity /another class registered as intent reciever . You can get the instance of activity in the broadcast reciever easily.
public static <Your activity class> activitySingleTon
and set the singleton in appropriate lifecycle method.
OnCreate(){ activitySingleTon = this; }
and use in broadcast reciever like this
if(<your activity class>.activitySingleTon)
{ <your activity class>.activitySingleTon.finish(); }

Are We in Anthropodenial?
Endowing animals with human emotions has long been a scientific taboo. But if we don't, we risk missing something fundamental, about animals and us.
By Frans de WaalJanuary 19, 1997 12:00 AM
When guests arrive at the Yerkes Regional Primate Research Center in Georgia, where I work, they usually pay a visit to the chimpanzees. And often, when she sees them approaching the compound, an adult female chimpanzee named Georgia will hurry to the spigot to collect a mouthful of water. She'll then casually mingle with the rest of the colony behind the mesh fence, and not even the sharpest observer will notice anything unusual. If necessary, Georgia will wait minutes, with her lips closed, until the visitors come near. Then there will be shrieks, laughs, jumps-- and sometimes falls--when she suddenly sprays them. I have known quite a few apes that are good at surprising people, naive and otherwise. Heini Hediger, the great Swiss zoo biologist, recounts how he--being prepared to meet the challenge and paying attention to the ape's every move--got drenched by an experienced chimpanzee. I once found myself in a similar situation with Georgia; she had taken a drink from the spigot and was sneaking up to me. I looked her straight in the eye and pointed my finger at her, warning in Dutch, I have seen you! She immediately stepped back, let some of the water dribble from her mouth, and swallowed the rest. I certainly do not wish to claim that she understands Dutch, but she must have sensed that I knew what she was up to, and that I was not going to be an easy target. Now, no doubt even a casual reader will have noticed that in describing Georgia's actions, I've implied human qualities such as intentions, the ability to interpret my own awareness, and a tendency toward mischief. Yet scientific tradition says I should avoid such language--I am committing the sin of anthropomorphism, of turning nonhumans into humans. The word comes from the Greek, meaning human form, and it was the ancient Greeks who first gave the practice a bad reputation. They did not have chimpanzees in mind: the philosopher Xenophanes objected to Homer's poetry because it treated Zeus and the other gods as if they were people. How could we be so arrogant, Xenophanes asked, as to think that the gods should look like us? If horses could draw pictures, he suggested mockingly, they would no doubt make their gods look like horses. Nowadays the intellectual descendants of Xenophanes warn against perceiving animals to be like ourselves. There are, for example, the behaviorists, who follow psychologist B. F. Skinner in viewing the actions of animals as responses shaped by rewards and punishments rather than the result of internal decision making, emotions, or intentions. They would say that Georgia was not up to anything when she sprayed water on her victims. Far from planning and executing a naughty plot, Georgia merely fell for the irresistible reward of human surprise and annoyance. Whereas any person acting like her would be scolded, arrested, or held accountable, Georgia is somehow innocent. Behaviorists are not the only scientists who have avoided thinking about the inner life of animals. Some sociobiologists--researchers who look for the roots of behavior in evolution--depict animals as survival machines and pre-programmed robots put on Earth to serve their selfish genes. There is a certain metaphorical value to these concepts, but it has been negated by the misunderstanding they've created. Such language can give the impression that only genes are entitled to an inner life. No more delusively anthropomorphizing idea has been put forward since the pet-rock craze of the 1970s. In fact, during evolution, genes--a mere batch of molecules--simply multiply at different rates, depending on the traits they produce in an individual. To say that genes are selfish is like saying a snowball growing in size as it rolls down a hill is greedy for snow. Logically, these agnostic attitudes toward a mental life in animals can be valid only if they're applied to our own species as well. Yet it's uncommon to find researchers who try to study human behavior as purely a matter of reward and punishment. Describe a person as having intentions, feelings, and thoughts and you most likely won't encounter much resistance. Our own familiarity with our inner lives overrules whatever some school of thought might claim about us. Yet despite this double standard toward behavior in humans and animals, modern biology leaves us no choice other than to conclude that we are animals. In terms of anatomy, physiology, and neurology we are really no more exceptional than, say, an elephant or a platypus is in its own way. Even such presumed hallmarks of humanity as warfare, politics, culture, morality, and language may not be completely unprecedented. For example, different groups of wild chimpanzees employ different technologies--some fish for termites with sticks, others crack nuts with stones--that are transmitted from one generation to the next through a process reminiscent of human culture. Given these discoveries, we must be very careful not to exaggerate the uniqueness of our species. The ancients apparently never gave much thought to this practice, the opposite of anthropomorphism, and so we lack a word for it. I will call it anthropodenial: a blindness to the humanlike characteristics of other animals, or the animal-like characteristics of ourselves. Those who are in anthropodenial try to build a brick wall to separate humans from the rest of the animal kingdom. They carry on the tradition of René Descartes, who declared that while humans possessed souls, animals were mere automatons. This produced a serious dilemma when Charles Darwin came along: If we descended from such automatons, were we not automatons ourselves? If not, how did we get to be so different? Each time we must ask such a question, another brick is pulled out of the dividing wall, and to me this wall is beginning to look like a slice of Swiss cheese. I work on a daily basis with animals from which it is about as hard to distance yourself as from Lucy, the famed 3.2- million-year-old fossil australopithecine. If we owe Lucy the respect of an ancestor, does this not force a different look at the apes? After all, as far as we can tell, the most significant difference between Lucy and modern chimpanzees is found in their hips, not their craniums. As soon as we admit that animals are far more like our relatives than like machines, then anthropodenial becomes impossible and anthropomorphism becomes inevitable--and scientifically acceptable. But not all forms of anthropomorphism, of course. Popular culture bombards us with examples of animals being humanized for all sorts of purposes, ranging from education to entertainment to satire to propaganda. Walt Disney, for example, made us forget that Mickey is a mouse, and Donald a duck. George Orwell laid a cover of human societal ills over a population of livestock. I was once struck by an advertisement for an oil company that claimed its propane saved the environment, in which a grizzly bear enjoying a pristine landscape had his arm around his mate's shoulders. In fact, bears are nearsighted and do not form pair-bonds, so the image says more about our own behavior than theirs. Perhaps that was the intent. The problem is, we do not always remember that, when used in this way, anthropomorphism can provide insight only into human affairs and not into the affairs of animals. When my book Chimpanzee Politics came out in France, in 1987, my publisher decided (unbeknownst to me) to put François Mitterrand and Jacques Chirac on the cover with a chimpanzee between them. I can only assume he wanted to imply that these politicians acted like mere apes. Yet by doing so he went completely against the whole point of my book, which was not to ridicule people but to show that chimpanzees live in complex societies full of alliances and power plays that in some ways mirror our own. You can often hear similar attempts at anthropomorphic humor in the crowds that form around the monkey exhibit at a typical zoo. Isn't it interesting that antelopes, lions, and giraffes rarely elicit hilarity? But people who watch primates end up hooting and yelling, scratching themselves in exaggeration, and pointing at the animals while shouting, I had to look twice, Larry. I thought it was you! In my mind, the laughter reflects anthropodenial: it is a nervous reaction caused by an uncomfortable resemblance. That very resemblance, however, can allow us to make better use of anthropomorphism, but for this we must view it as a means rather than an end. It should not be our goal to find some quality in an animal that is precisely equivalent to an aspect of our own inner lives. Rather, we should use the fact that we are similar to animals to develop ideas we can test. For example, after observing a group of chimpanzees at length, we begin to suspect that some individuals are attempting to deceive others--by giving false alarms to distract unwanted attention from the theft of food or from forbidden sexual activity. Once we frame the observation in such terms, we can devise testable predictions. We can figure out just what it would take to demonstrate deception on the part of chimpanzees. In this way, a speculation is turned into a challenge. Naturally, we must always be on guard. To avoid making silly interpretations based on anthropomorphism, one must always interpret animal behavior in the wider context of a species' habits and natural history. Without experience with primates, one could imagine that a grinning rhesus monkey must be delighted, or that a chimpanzee running toward another with loud grunts must be in an aggressive mood. But primatologists know from many hours of observation that rhesus monkeys bare their teeth when intimidated, and that chimpanzees often grunt when they meet and embrace. In other words, a grinning rhesus monkey signals submission, and a chimpanzee's grunting often serves as a greeting. A careful observer may thus arrive at an informed anthropomorphism that is at odds with extrapolations from human behavior. One must also always be aware that some animals are more like ourselves than others. The problem of sharing the experiences of organisms that rely on different senses is a profound one. It was expressed most famously by the philosopher Thomas Nagel when he asked, What is it like to be a bat? A bat perceives its world in pulses of reflected sound, something we creatures of vision would have a hard time imagining. Perhaps even more alien would be the experience of an animal such as the star-nosed mole. With 22 pink, writhing tentacles around its nostrils, it is able to feel microscopic textures on small objects in the mud with the keenest sense of touch of any animal on Earth. Humans can barely imagine a star-nosed mole's Umwelt--a German term for the environment as perceived by the animal. Obviously, the closer a species is to us, the easier it is to enter its Umwelt. This is why anthropomorphism is not only tempting in the case of apes but also hard to reject on the grounds that we cannot know how they perceive the world. Their sensory systems are essentially the same as ours. Last summer, an ape saved a three-year-old boy. The child, who had fallen 20 feet into the primate exhibit at Chicago's Brookfield Zoo, was scooped up and carried to safety by Binti Jua, an eight-year-old western lowland female gorilla. The gorilla sat down on a log in a stream, cradling the boy in her lap and patting his back, and then carried him to one of the exhibit doorways before laying him down and continuing on her way. Binti became a celebrity overnight, figuring in the speeches of leading politicians who held her up as an example of much-needed compassion. Some scientists were less lyrical, however. They cautioned that Binti's motives might have been less noble than they appeared, pointing out that this gorilla had been raised by people and had been taught parental skills with a stuffed animal. The whole affair might have been one of a confused maternal instinct, they claimed. The intriguing thing about this flurry of alternative explanations was that nobody would think of raising similar doubts when a person saves a dog hit by a car. The rescuer might have grown up around a kennel, have been praised for being kind to animals, have a nurturing personality, yet we would still see his behavior as an act of caring. Why then, in Binti's case, was her background held against her? I am not saying that I know what went through Binti's head, but I do know that no one had prepared her for this kind of emergency and that it is unlikely that, with her own 17-month-old infant on her back, she was maternally confused. How in the world could such a highly intelligent animal mistake a blond boy in sneakers and a red T-shirt for a juvenile gorilla? Actually, the biggest surprise was how surprised most people were. Students of ape behavior did not feel that Binti had done anything unusual. Jörg Hess, a Swiss gorilla expert, put it most bluntly, The incident can be sensational only for people who don't know a thing about gorillas. Binti's action made a deep impression mainly because it benefited a member of our own species, but in my work on the evolution of morality and empathy, I have encountered numerous instances of animals caring for one another. For example, a chimpanzee consoles a victim after a violent attack, placing an arm around him and patting his back. And bonobos (or pygmy chimpanzees) have been known to assist companions new to their quarters in zoos, taking them by the hand to guide them through the maze of corridors connecting parts of their building. These kinds of cases don't reach the newspapers but are consistent with Binti's assistance to the unfortunate boy and the idea that apes have a capacity for sympathy. The traditional bulwark against this sort of cognitive interpretation is the principle of parsimony--that we must make as few assumptions as possible when trying to construct a scientific explanation, and that assuming an ape is capable of something like sympathy is too great a leap. But doesn't that same principle of parsimony argue against assuming a huge cognitive gap when the evolutionary distance between humans and apes is so small? If two closely related species act in the same manner, their underlying mental processes are probably the same, too. The incident at the Brookfield Zoo shows how hard it is to avoid anthropodenial and anthropomorphism at the same time: in trying to avoid thinking of Binti as a human being, we run straight into the realization that Binti's actions make little sense if we refuse to assume intentions and feelings. In the end we must ask: What kind of risk we are willing to take- -the risk of underestimating animal mental life or the risk of overestimating it? There is no simple answer. But from an evolutionary perspective, Binti's kindness, like Georgia's mischief, is most parsimoniously explained in the same way we explain our own behavior--as the result of a complex, and familiar, inner life.

I've just uploaded a demo (made using Artoonix) of a really simple and free way to change the soundtrack of any movie file. Obviously, if you make a movie with Artoonix, you have MASSIVE control over the soundtrack - but if you want to silence an existing movie or add a new soundtrack or replace an existing soundtrack --- this will explain how I do it.
Eg: I had a video of our grandaughter but there was a lot of loud chatter in the background. So I uploaded the video file into the program I use and then just replaced the existing soundtrack with a music track.
I follow the main demo with two short video extracts - the first with the original soundtrack, the repeated extract with a music soundtrack.


As an experienced Buffalo DWI Attorney I am regularly asked what will happen to a DWI offense if there was an accident involved. According to the NYS DMV, they recently recorded 8,461 alcohol related car accidents in a single year. If you get into an accident while driving while intoxicated either by alcohol or drugs, one of the most important pieces of advice I give is not to flee the scene. If you flee the scene of an accident caused by drunk driving, additional charges will be added. It's best to call 911 immediately, make sure no one is hurt, cooperate with the police as far as giving them your name, and your address. As always, you do not have to tell them how much you had to drink, you do not have to perform any roadside field sobriety tests, nor do you have to take a breathalyzer test or chemical test back at the station. You can politely tell them that you have the right to remain silent, and would like to speak to an attorney.
Did you get into a car accident that involved alcohol or drugs? If so, contact experienced Buffalo DWI Attorney Arthur Pressman. He has over 20 years of experience handling these types of cases and will fight to ensure your rights are protected. He offers free consultations and would be happy to go over the specific details of your case and provide the guidance you need. Let him be your ticket to justice!

home › Dictionary of Virginia Biography
William Christian (ca. 1742–9 April 1786), Continental army officer and member of the Council of State, may have been born in Augusta County. He was the son of Israel Christian, an immigrant from the British Isles who became a prominent merchant and county leader, and Elizabeth Christian, whose maiden name probably was Starke and who may have been responsible for the unusually good education that he and his sisters received. The sisters married into enterprising and influential families in western Virginia. Early in the 1760s Christian commanded a company of men in an expedition against the Cherokee Indians on the southwestern frontier, and later in the decade he read law in Hanover County with Patrick Henry. Sometime between mid-January and mid-March 1768 he married Henry's sister, Annie Henry. They had five daughters and one son.
In March 1769 Christian obtained a certificate of good character from the Augusta County Court in preparation for qualifying to practice law, but there is no evidence that he ever did. Early in his marriage he lived in a house his father provided in the southern portion of Augusta County, which in 1770 was organized as Botetourt County. In 1770 he moved to Mahanaim, in Dunkard's Bottom, in the region that in 1772 became Fincastle County. Although the efforts of his father to have him appointed surveyor of Botetourt County failed, Christian sat on that county court and became a justice of the peace of Fincastle County in January 1773. He won election to the House of Burgesses in 1773 and 1774 and was a member of the Committee of Public Claims in the sessions that met in May 1774 and June 1775 and of the Committee of Propositions and Grievances in 1774. At one of the final meetings of the burgesses in June 1775, he was one of four members, and the only junior member and only representative from a southwestern county, appointed to complain to the governor about his flight from the capital and the removal of the public arms from the governor's palace.
Christian was a member and sometime chair of the Fincastle County Committee during 1775 and 1776 and also attended the second and third of the five Revolutionary Conventions. He missed the first probably because of the need to bring the militia into the field in preparation for Dunmore's War, in which he commanded a company in the autumn of 1774. The third Virginia Convention on 17 August 1775 elected Christian lieutenant colonel of the newly created 1st Virginia Regiment, stationed in Williamsburg for defense of the capital. In February 1776 the Continental Congress took the Virginia regiments into the new Continental army and renewed the appointment of field officers. After Christian's brother-in-law Patrick Henry declined to continue as colonel, Congress promoted Christian to that rank on 18 March 1776, but he resigned the appointment during the summer, perhaps in order to accept from the governor's Council command of an expedition to attack the Cherokee on the southwestern frontier. After Christian and his men had destroyed Cherokee towns along the Little Tennessee and Tellico Rivers, he negotiated a peace treaty during the winter.
In the summer of 1776 Christian was reportedly elected to the new Senate of Virginia to represent the counties of Botetourt and Fincastle, but because he was in the field commanding the expedition he did not attend. During and after the Revolutionary War he remained active in the militia defending the frontier and supporting the campaign in the southern states. Christian made one or more trips to Kentucky, including one in 1781 and 1782 to negotiate a treaty with Indians in the Ohio Valley.
Christian served for a time as a trustee of Liberty Hall Academy (later Washington and Lee University). He won election to a four-year term in the Senate of Virginia in 1780 representing Botetourt, Greenbrier, Kentucky, Montgomery, and Washington Counties. In November of that year Kentucky County became extinct, and beginning with the 1781 session Christian's district included the new counties of Fayette, Jefferson, and Lincoln. Before his term ended, the General Assembly elected him to the Council of State on 27 November 1783. Christian took his seat on 23 December but attended few meetings between then and 18 March 1784. When the assembly voted on 17 November of the latter year to replace two members, as the constitution required, he lost his seat. By then Christian was planning to move to the West, where he had been acquiring land for a decade.
In 1785 Christian sold Mahanaim and moved his wife, their six children, and an unrecorded number of his more than forty slaves to Beargrass Creek, near the site of present-day Louisville, Kentucky. Two sisters and their families already lived in Kentucky, and Christian's widowed mother set out with her son but found the journey too strenuous and turned back. Christian put some of his slaves to work in his saltworks, known as Bullitt's Lick or Saltsburg, near present-day Shepherdsville, Kentucky. One of the more experienced military men in the West, William Christian commanded an expedition across the Ohio River the following spring and was killed in a fight with Wabash Indians on 9 April 1786 near the site of present-day Jeffersonville, Indiana. His body was buried on his property at Beargrass Creek.

Time and again, I am amazed how challenging it is to share the deepest part of my soul or to hear the innermost feelings of others. For me, to invite people into my world fully means sharing the layers of my being in a way that feels a little overwhelming. I am sure the same can be said for others. Each of us has a past, a skeleton that may be better left alone, but which is still part of our fabric. We are also our dreams, our hopes, our obsessions, our darkness, and of course our light. At any given moment, we are navigating the world we live in and the world we are striving to live in.
Each and every one of us are human beings with deep thoughts and emotions.
Feelings are so complicated. Putting experiences into words can be daunting. Life is complicated. And with that reality, simple words don't always make sense. We use them because they are the tools we have in a world in which communication is essential. But what does fully connecting look like? How can we intuit what is really being said when words are not enough?
Have you ever noticed how beautiful communicating can be with a lover who understands your intensity without ever needing to hear what you are thinking. They can look in your eyes and feel where you are; touch enables clarity to flow. Words can enhance what is happening, but the kindred energy is so much fuller when you can include the senses. In a different way, the same can be said for close friends and close family. In recent months, I have been blown away by the nature of all healthy relationships and I have been distressed by the connections that once were.
Words are never enough. Communication is made whole by the silence between the notes, the light or darkness in one's eyes, a touch, or simply trust.
May each of us be blessed to experience relationships where we hear and feel heard.
Today is the third day following Rosh Hodesh (beginning of the month) Elul; it is a time to reflect and to choose ways in which I can best move forward. While it is not easy to navigate life's journeys, I always get to decide how to approach my life. In this moment, I am choosing to walk gently and embrace each step with openness. As I say this, I also realize that this would be a good time for a reality check.
Have you ever noticed that the same words can have many different meanings depending how they are said, to whom they are said, and when they are said?
Words have power. When we use them wisely and with intention, they have the ability to impact those that hear them and those that speak them.
The two most significant or empowering words in my world are שמע קולי – Hear My Voice. They have guided me for over five years in each and every human interaction I have. And while I mostly say them silently, they remind me on how I need to walk through life.
Initially these words came to me in a chant that helped center me and made me feel whole. It is a chant that I wrote when I needed deep medicine to heal my sad and mourning soul. And the beauty of it is that as I have grown so has this chant. The words are still helping me to grow into the human being that I want to be.
When I am first chanting these words, I am saying the words to me. I need to hear my voice; I need to listen to my thoughts, my beliefs, my needs, and my dreams. With each repetition, I have to accept what I really feel and find a way to manage what I know in my heart, my mind, and my soul. It is my job to not only listen to what is on my mind, but for me to wake up and navigate where I am in the most honest ways that I can.
When I am chanting this second part, I am focused on my relationship with others. If I am navigating a soulful relationship with a beloved, I concentrate on what I need and what the other person may need of me. My prayer is that the two of us (whoever we are) are working towards our connection together in whatever ways we need to do this. I also use part two of this chant practice to work on all the dynamics I have with everyone I interact.
Finally, in the third part of this chant, I am concentrating on how I walk in the larger world. I want to have integrity in all that I do and in all the thoughts that I have. In a perfect world, I want my heart, my mind, and my soul to be aligned with one another. I want to live actively and consciously with the values that I hold dear. I want to walk with the godliness that guides my spirit. When I write a blog or work on my book, I want the words to be meaningful and truthful. I believe that I am part of the universe and everything I does matters in some way.
When I begin and end this chant practice, I do all three parts; however, in the middle I focus on whatever relationship needs the most work.
Creating healthy relationships is holy work.
As my Elul Journeys continue, may I take the time I need to listen to my voice and to create healthy interactions with the world around me. May I nurture my love of life and feel inspired to walk fully within the beauty that surrounds me.
Over the course of the last several days, I have experienced many hours without a voice. While it appeared to be challenging for others who had to communicate with me, I ultimately found peace in my own silence. I loved having the time to sit quietly with my thoughts and to sometimes just be present without thinking at all. I also loved quietly watching what was going on around me without having to connect to the conversations. In the last few days I grew to love the silence and wish I could find more ways to put silence in my life.
In my silence, I have learned or reinforced many lessons that I already knew.
Silence allows me the time to create a container for my own thoughts. Sometimes the chatter that I engage in takes away my ability to be present and to trust my own thoughts and desires. The silence has given me the space to allow what is in my heart to resonate more fully within me.
As a Youth Education Director, my voice is often used as a tool to lead people, to tell stories, to connect with my students, their families, and my teachers. Losing my voice forced me to trust others to lead in ways that I couldn't lead. And guess what, while no one will ever be me, those that stepped up to the plate were awesome in their own right.
Writing jazzes my soul! Now in all honesty, I have not felt well enough to write for a bit, but it helps to know that in theory I always have writing. Laryngitis can never silence me!
Words are not needed to convey thoughts. Body language, facial expressions, and silence can be part of an entire conversation.
My sons are awesome at reminding me to slow down or to stop entirely. They have stepped up to the plate in many ways to make certain that I push myself less. Those that know me well know that I always push myself.
Vulnerability is a reality of life. Sometime illness takes away our ability to function; it also makes me realize how we sometimes need to rely on others. I haven't asked for too much help, but when I did, I felt supported. Still acknowledging my own vulnerability has been painful. It is what it is.
For me, losing my voice has essentially forced me to find my footing. Over the past few months, I have been going at a breakneck speed and trying to navigate many thoughts, emotions, and realities. The last couple months have been especially tough in different ways. I have always done what I needed to do, but at times I have been overwhelmed.
Laryngitis felt like a metaphor for some recent challenges. Since moving to a totally new city, I have sometimes felt like my voice didn't matter. In part that was due to moving to Tucson where I am not quite sure how to navigate my politics nor do I have the time I want to do that which I love. I am also working in a new community, this means that I feel compelled to listen and observe during the first year; perspective comes from seeing what has been done before making changes. Moving also means that I have been so busy that I don't have enough time to really connect with those that I have always been able to speak freely; I am missing what I have lost for the time being. And finally, I have two sons that have grown more independent and don't always feel compelled to hear my thoughts. None of these challenges are everlasting; they are present realities which will absolutely evolve over time.
With each and every gift, there are challenges. Losing my voice has given me time to reflect and to make some decisions for how I will navigate my life a little differently. Perspective has come from the silence. Instead of me just speaking the words that come to me, I have had the opportunity to stop and take the opportunity to reflect before acting too quickly. Much can be learned in the space between the words (spoken or written).
My hope is that I will create a little more silence in my life as I continue to navigate what life has to offer.

Great pictures, I love your blog, it makes me NEED to travel!


Visions beyond vain logic's need of proof.
Worlds dwell, unknown to merely mortal men.
Have sometimes met their own angelic kin.
Carried away to mystic realms afar.
And ferry me to some enchanted star.
Sharing secrets too wonderful to keep.
I'm swaddled in the comfort of my sleep.
Finds hope and strength to meet the coming day.
Emerges to restore my feet of clay.

From Mound City, Kansas Territory, James Montgomery writes George Stearns about recent trouble at Fort Scott and about acting governor George M. Beebe's visit to Mound City. He came, according to Montgomery, to ascertain for himself if the rumors about Montgomery's activities were correct. He left satisfied that the free staters were acting properly and "promising to do what he could to reform abuses" in the federal courts and protect their rights. Although things were quiet at present, and more fugitive slaves had arrived who could now stay safely in Kansas, Montgomery warns that the introduction of federal troops into southern Kansas would create an explosive situation.

Q: How to omit setter of PropertyChanged when the framework draws controls [MAUI.NET] I have an application in MAUI.NET with MVVM architecture.
In ViewModels I am setting PropertyChanged as most of examples through the web.
In my application the user opens lots of views (that are of type ContentView).
Each time the ContentView is assigned to main area of application and drawn on the monitor, the setters of ViewModels are fired (when they have already binded value).
What I need is to limit this behaviour (firing setters in ViewModels) only to the moment when the user himself/herself click on the checkbox, omitting the moments when the framework just draw the checkbox which have binded value set to true.
In this situation call stack says that external code is firing this.
Anyone have any idea how to deal with this?
edit:
viewmodel:
internal class CheckboxViewModel : BaseViewModel
{
    public bool Value
    {
        get
        {
            ...
        }
        set
        {
            //here I compute value and set status to be changed

            //this is fired when the user click on checkbox = ok
            //but also when checkbox (with binded true value) is drawn on the monitor = problem
        }
    }

    public CheckboxViewModel(XElement item, Registry registry) : base(item, registry)
    {
            ...
    }
}

view:
<DataTemplate x:DataType="viewModels:CheckboxViewModel" x:Key="CheckboxDataTemplate">
    <CheckBox IsChecked="{Binding Value}" ... />
</DataTemplate>

and my sligthly changed version of INotifyProperty:
    public class BaseViewModel : INotifyPropertyChanged
{
    public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;

    protected virtual void OnPropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
    {
        PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new(propertyName));
    }

    protected virtual void SetPropertyAndNotify<T>(ref T backedProperty, T newValue, [CallerMemberName] string propertyName = null)
    {
        if (object.Equals(backedProperty, newValue))
            return;

        backedProperty = newValue;

        PropertyChanged?.Invoke(this, new(propertyName));
    }
}

situation:
I put a ContentView that in BindedContext has (in some hierarchy) the CheckBoxViewModel and it is drawn. But the setter is fired.
