If there was any reason to doubt it, the upcoming Topsfield Fair is a sure sign of fall.America's oldest county fair, having started in 1818, opens Friday, Oct. 4, and runs through Columbus Day, Monday, Oct. 14. Although he hasn't been around since the beginning, Bill Fitzgerald of Methuen's Mann Orchards is as knowledgeable as anyone about the longtime tradition.“I actually have my 50-year pin being involved with the Topsfield Fair. Started as quite a young guy, displaying apples and whatnot in the fruit and vegetable building.”Fitzgerald sits on the Topsfield Fair board of directors and previously served as its president. He was a recent guest on WHAV's “Win for Breakfast” program and said Mann Orchards will again have a display, but he's also looking forward to some of the other attractions.“Well let me tell you, does it get any better than Three Dog Night and .38 Special, right in our own back yard? Honestly, and what we need is great weather those nights. And, then on Friday night that week, we have a couple of young ladies, Maddie and Tae. I think that will be an interesting show as well,” he explains.One of the highlights at the beginning of the fair is the Giant Pumpkin Weigh Off, Friday, Oct. 4, at 4 p.m. Fitzgerald says it is not uncommon to find pumpkins exceeding 2,000 pounds. “Now, with the summer we've had, hot dry weather, a little bit more of a challenge, I think, for these big pumpkin growers. It's going to be very interesting to see how they've put their minds together and what they're going to have for a big pumpkin this year. I think we might be surprised with what we see for a great big pumpkin.”Many days at the Fair have their own theme, including Monday, Oct. 7, which actually has two major features. “Senior Day and also, at the same time, we have what we call Sensory Day, and that is for people who like things a little bit quieter. A lot of the sound systems are turned way down, the lighting is dimmed a little bit, so people who like things a little bit calmer can come to the fair and enjoy that as well,” he points out.The Topsfield Fair is owned and operated by the Essex Agricultural Society, a nonprofit which states its purpose as “encouraging, promoting and preserving Essex County agricultural activities, and to educate the general public regarding their importance.” There is more at TopsfieldFair.org.Support the show

BATMAN TO BRUCE LEE: George Fitzgerald's Martial Arts Journey George Fitzgerald: A Martial Arts Journey from Batman to Bruce Lee In our latest podcast episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with George Fitzgerald, a seasoned martial artist whose journey is nothing short of inspiring. From his early days of being inspired by Batman and Bruce Lee to mastering multiple martial arts disciplines, George's story is a testament to passion, dedication, and the eternal quest for mastery. Andrew Staton asks the questions; George's journey into martial arts began at a very young age. "From the age of four I've been a Batman fan and I used to see Batman in the comics doing this weird stuff called karate jiu jitsu," he recalls. The influence of iconic figures like Elvis Presley and Bruce Lee further fueled this early fascination with martial arts. At the age of twelve, after watching Bruce Lee's "Fist of Fury," George knew that martial arts was his path in life. Over the years, George has trained in various martial arts disciplines, including judo, aikido, Wing Chun, Muay Thai, and Russian Sambo, among others. His dedication to martial arts is evident in his relentless pursuit of knowledge and mastery. "I just want to be the best martial artist I can be, so that then I can help anyone I teach to be the best martial artist they can be," he explains. One of the key philosophies that George holds dear is the effectiveness of martial arts in self-defence. "My number one premise of doing a martial art is, is this effective in self defence?" he states. This focus on practicality and real-world application has guided his training and teaching methods throughout his career. George's journey is also marked by his encounters with legendary martial artists such as Joe Lewis, Bill Wallace, and Chuck Norris. His relationship with Joe Lewis, in particular, left a lasting impact. "Bruce Lee was the greatest martial arts teacher he ever knew, without a doubt," George shares, reflecting on Joe's admiration for Bruce Lee. Despite his extensive experience and numerous accolades, George remains humble and refers to himself as the "eternal white belt." This mindset of continuous learning and growth is what keeps him motivated and passionate about martial arts. "Even now, I'm kind of getting all animated. That's why I can't actually put my finger on what it is. It just makes me feel like, you know, let's get up and train now," he says with enthusiasm. As George continues to train and teach, he remains a beacon of inspiration for martial artists around the world. His story is a reminder that martial arts is not just about physical prowess but also about cultivating a warrior spirit and a lifelong commitment to self-improvement. SIFU George Fitzgerald is the former President, Founder & Master Instructor of the Tang Lung Combat Academy from 1989 – 2012. Among his many credentials, he is a qualified instructor under THREE of Bruce Lee's very best students! He has been studying and practicing formal Martial Arts for the last 50 years, starting in 1973 with Judo at age eleven. But his real introduction to the ‘fighting arts' was from the age of seven in the form of boxing and self-defence ‘tips' from his father – Bill Fitzgerald, a man who was definitely no stranger to ‘street survival' – in fact, he was known to many simply as ‘The Bouncer!'

Bill shares with us the balance between holistic and biomedical therapy and how we can all become more self-aware and take accountability for our own lives, this is where a programme in coaching and reiki energy therapy helped him to discover more about himself and helped him heal.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for February 25, 2021 is: slipshod • SLIP-SHAHD • adjective 1 a : wearing loose shoes or slippers b : down at the heel : shabby 2 : careless, slovenly Examples: "'What's worse is the rules about misinformation on social media are confusing and inconsistent, and enforcement of those policies is slipshod at best,' says Bill Fitzgerald, a privacy and technology researcher in CR's Digital Lab." — Consumer Reports, 13 Aug. 2020 "But Ryan Day couldn't help but harp on a slipshod second half in which the Buckeyes were outscored by 10 points and outgained by 126 yards." — Kyle Rowland, The Toledo (Ohio) Blade, 9 Nov. 2020 Did you know? The word shod is the past tense form of the verb shoe, meaning "to furnish with a shoe"; hence, we can speak of shoeing horses and horses that have been shod or shodden. When the word slipshod was first used in the late 1500s, it meant "wearing loose shoes or slippers"—such slippers were once called slip-shoes—and later it was used to describe shoes that were falling apart. By the early 1800s, slipshod was used more generally as a synonym for shabby—in 1818, Sir Walter Scott wrote about "the half-bound and slip-shod volumes of the circulating library." The association with shabbiness then shifted to an association with sloppiness, and the word was used to mean "careless" or "slovenly."

The ongoing pandemic brought many technical challenges into the spotlight, perhaps none more than educational technology and student privacy. The shift from traditional school to remote learning and teaching is riddled with digital privacy concerns, and the intersections of race, class, and technology-access amplify these issues. Elana Zeide, Anisha Reddy, Jim Siegl, Chris Gilliard, and Bill Fitzgerald join us for a dive into student privacy and online proctoring in the era of 'Zoom School.'

This years' Topsfield Fair is still on, despite COVID-19 concerns.Bill Fitzgerald, of Mann Orchards in Methuen, the current president of the Topsfield Fair board of directors, says organizers are forming coalitions to ensure safety.“Topsfield Fair is partnering, in some respects, with the Big E out in Springfield, to form a little bit of a coalition, so we can trade ideas back and forth, and hopefully live up to what the guidelines may be come this fall,” Fitzgerald says.Fitzgerald was a guest, Wednesday, on WHAV's morning program. He says there's a tremendous effort at the Topsfield Fairgrounds to make sure all of the vendors are following the proper protocols, adding that the vendors are looking forward to the event, because it has been such a slow season. He wants everyone to feel comfortable.“The goal of the Essex Agricultural Society is to make people feel safe and secure when they come to the fair. It's always been that way, but this year it will be a triple effort to make sure people feel safe and secure when they come there,” he notes.Beyond the entertainment, rides and food, Fitzgerald says Topsfield Fair organizers always focus on their main goal. “All the agricultural stuff is being planned as usual. I know the huge Pumpkin Growers Association is just chomping at the bit to be able to get there, and show off those big pumpkins and things like that again.”The 202nd year of the Topsfield Fair is scheduled to run this year from Oct. 2 through Columbus Day weekend Oct. 10.Support the show (https://whav.net/become-a-whav-member/)

“We should open a bar.” Many have thought it, but Bill FitzGerald actually did it. And now 37 years later, he seems genuinely surprised at the emotional response to the news that he’s retiring and possibly selling his legendary nightclub, Fitzgeralds. In our far flung conversation, Bill talks about how it all started, how a trip to New Orleans opened his eyes to the possibilities, how he met his wife and partner in crime, Kate, years before he actually met her, and how a steady parade of musical greats have marched through Berwyn to play on a stage in a club like no other. Also, later in the show, Sue Salvi has a beef with Amazon.

The push to "personalize" education is on, with more Silicon Valley disrupters jumping into the big money fray every week. But as Jennifer Berkshire and Jack Schneider discuss with guest Bill Fitzgerald, the search for a technological cure for what ails our public schools goes way back. And by failing to heed the past, the new breed of disrupters--Mark Zuckerberg, Reed Hastings, et al--are poised to repeat it.

Bill Fitzgerald, the Director of the Privacy Evaluation Initiative at Common Sense Media, discusses the intersection of data interoperability and student data protection.
