Episode 36 of the Fire Safety Matters Podcast features exclusive interviews with regular contributor Warren Spencer (managing director at Blackhurst Budd Solicitors), Terry Edge (independent expert and consultant on furniture fire safety) and David Fitzpatrick, general manager in the UK for SMAY Ventilation Systems. In conversation with Mark Sennett (the CEO of Western Business Media and the founder of Fire Safety Matters), Warren Spencer references a News story published online by Fire Safety Matters last December in which a prosecution case launched against a fire risk assessor and his company collapsed after it was discovered that the fire risk assessment upon which the prosecution was based was not in fact the original document. Brian hears from former civil servant Terry Edge who, between 2004 and 2016, served as the lead official on the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988 at what is now the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. Terry offers his thought-provoking views on what needs to happen next in the domain of furniture fire safety. Since November 2023, David Fitzpatrick has served Poland-based SMAY Ventilation Systems as general manager of UK operations. David is tasked with leading on project design and systems implementation for both HVAC and smoke protection solutions, driving business growth through new UK approaches to keeping evacuation routes safe thanks to pressure differential systems. During the interview with Brian, David looks at changes brought forward by the Building Safety Act 2022 and also outlines the company's participation in this year's edition of The Fire Safety Event at the NEC in April. As always, Brian and Mark analyse some of the latest major industry news stories. There's comment on the Building Engineering Services Association's views relating to high-risk buildings, repeated concerns expressed by Local Authority Building Control over building control capacity, the second fire remediation report on fire safety in English social housing and developments ahead of both Fire Safety Matters Live (Coventry) and the Fire and Security Matters Awards 2024.

Hailing from Palm Springs, California, this six-year-old male became the first of his breed to achieve this esteemed honor. Originally bred for hare tracking in the Vendee region of western France, Buddy Holly's triumph marks a significant milestone for the petit basset griffon Vendeen breed. 這是一場歷史性的勝利，一隻名叫「巴迪‧霍利」（Buddy Holly）的迷你貝吉格里芬凡丁獵犬（PetitBasset Griffon Vendéen，PBGV）贏得了第147屆美國西敏寺犬展的最高獎項，超越了代表210個品種和變種的3,000多隻狗狗。這隻六歲的公狗來自美國加州的棕櫚泉，成為該品種首次獲此殊榮的犬隻。迷你貝吉格里芬凡丁獵犬原本是在法國西部的旺代地區專門飼養來追蹤野兔，Buddy Holly的勝利對於這個品種來說是一個重要的里程碑。 Janice Hayes, Buddy Holly's co-owner and handler, expressed her astonishment at their victory, stating, "I never thought PBGV would do this. Buddy Holly truly embodies the essence of a champion show dog." Each breed showcased at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show represents the culmination of years of artificial selection, carefully refining and enhancing specific traits inherited from their ancestral wolves. 巴迪‧霍利的共同飼主和訓練員Janice Hayes對於他們的勝利感到驚訝，她說：「我從來沒想過迷你貝吉格里芬凡丁獵犬能做到這點。巴迪‧霍利真正展現了一隻冠軍犬的精髓。」美國西敏寺犬展中的每一個品種代表了多年人工選擇的成果，精心改良和增強了從牠們的狼祖先那裡繼承而來的特定特徵。 The competition's participants were classified into seven distinct groups to determine the ultimate best in show finalists: hound, toy, non-sporting, herding, sporting, working, and terrier. Buddy Holly emerged as the winner of the hound group, showcasing his exemplary qualities within his breed. 比賽的參賽犬被分為七個不同的組別，以決定最終的最佳展覽犬：獵犬、玩具犬、非運動犬、牧羊犬、運動犬、工作犬和梗犬。巴迪‧霍利贏得了獵犬組的冠軍，展示了其品種內卓越的特質。 The runner-up, receiving the prize for reserve best in show, was awarded to Rummie, a Pekingese from the toy group. Bred and owned by David Fitzpatrick, Rummie demonstrated the exceptional characteristics that epitomize the breed. The judges meticulously evaluated the dogs by examining them up close, physically interacting with them, and observing how the handlers led them around the floor. The dogs were assessed based on breed standards, including appearance, temperament, size, coat, and other defining characteristics. 亞軍獎項的最佳展覽犬則授予了玩具犬組的冠軍，一隻名為魯米（Rummie）的北京狗。魯米由主人David Fitzpatrick培育和擁有，展示了該品種的優秀特點。評審們仔細觀察犬隻，近距離檢查牠們，與牠們互動，觀察訓練員如何引領牠們在展場上行走。犬隻按照品種標準進行評估，包括外觀、氣質、大小、毛髮和其他明確特徵。 The Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, which traces its origins back to 1877, has grown into a highly anticipated annual event and a staple on television broadcasts. This year, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the show took place at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in Queens, New York, the site of the renowned U.S. Open tennis tournament. In previous years, the event was traditionally held at Madison Square Garden in Midtown Manhattan but was relocated to a smaller venue at Lyndhurst Mansion as a precautionary measure. Buddy Holly's groundbreaking victory not only solidifies his place in dog show history but also serves as an inspiration to future generations of petit basset griffon Vendeen enthusiasts. 美國西敏寺犬展可以追溯到1877年，已成為一個受矚目的年度盛會，並成為電視廣播中的一個重要節目。今年，由於持續的新冠疫情，展覽在紐約皇后區的美國網球公開賽場地「比莉·珍·金網球中心」舉行。過去，該活動通常在曼哈頓中城的麥迪遜廣場花園舉行，但由於預防措施，場地被轉移到位於林德赫斯特城堡莊園的較小場地上。巴迪‧霍利的突破性勝利不僅鞏固了牠在犬展歷史上的地位，也激勵了未來的迷你貝吉格里芬凡丁獵犬的愛好者。 Reference article:https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/dog-named-buddy-holly-is-first-its-breed-win-westminster-show-2023-05-10/ https://tw.stock.yahoo.com/news/%E5%9C%96%E8%BC%AF-%E7%8B%97%E7%95%8C%E5%A5%A7%E6%96%AF%E5%8D%A1-%E8%A5%BF%E6%95%8F%E5%AF%BA%E7%8A%AC%E5%B1%95%E7%99%BB%E5%A0%B4-%E9%80%99%E9%9A%BB%E6%AF%9B%E5%AD%A9%E9%A6%96%E5%A5%AA%E5%86%A0-095309716.html Powered by Firstory Hosting

A petit basset griffon Vendéen, or PBGV, won top prize at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show in New York City Tuesday. The dog, called Buddy Holly, won the award for best in show. The breed he represents is known for its rabbit-hunting ability. Buddy Holly defeated six other candidates to take the prize at the most famous dog show in the United States. This year's event was held at the U.S.T.A. Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York.周二，在纽约市威斯敏斯特养犬俱乐部狗展上，一只小巴吉度狮鹫 Vendéen（简称 PBGV）获得了最高奖项。这只名叫 Buddy Holly 的狗获得了最佳表演奖。他代表的品种以其猎兔能力而闻名。 Buddy Holly 击败了其他六位候选人，在美国最著名的狗展上获奖。今年的活动在 U.S.T.A. 举行。纽约比利简金国家网球中心。“I never thought a PBGV would do this,” handler and co-owner Janice Hayes said. “Buddy Holly is the epitome of a show dog. Nothing bothers him.” His competitors included Rummie, a Pekingese that came in second. His owner and handler, David Fitzpatrick, breeds the small dogs. Rummie is, in Fitzpatrick's words “true to Pekingese type, lots of carriage, presence — everything in one, here.” Winston the French bulldog was also seeking the best in show prize, after coming close last year. An Australian shepherd named Ribbon, an English setter called Cider, a giant schnauzer named Monty and an American Staffordshire terrier called Trouble also were in the final group of competitors.“我从没想过 PBGV 会这样做，”饲养员兼共同所有人 Janice Hayes 说。 “Buddy Holly 是表演犬的典范。什么都难不倒他。”他的竞争对手包括第二名的北京哈巴狗 Rummie。他的主人兼饲养员大卫·菲茨帕特里克 (David Fitzpatrick) 负责饲养这些小型犬。用 Fitzpatrick 的话来说，拉米是“真正的北京人类型，很多举止，风度——一切都在这里。”法国斗牛犬温斯顿在去年接近尾声后，也在寻求最佳表演奖。一只名叫 Ribbon 的澳大利亚牧羊犬、一只名叫 Cider 的英国塞特犬、一只名叫 Monty 的巨型雪纳瑞犬和一只名叫 Trouble 的美国斯塔福德郡梗犬也在最后一组参赛者中。If Buddy Holly was feeling the pressure, he did not show it ahead of the finals. He spent the late day playing with his people and rejecting any proposal that he take a rest before the final competition. “He just screams PBGV,” Hayes said, noting that the breed is independent and full of fun. “Their goal is to make you laugh every day,” she said. The breed began in France. The American Kennel Club says the small hounds are the 154th most common purebreds in the U.S. Buddy Holly has also lived and competed in Britain, Ireland and Australia.如果 Buddy Holly 感到压力，他并没有在决赛前表现出来。他花了最后一天和他的人一起玩，拒绝了任何让他在决赛前休息的提议。 “他只是尖叫着 PBGV，”Hayes 说，并指出该品种是独立的并且充满乐趣。 “他们的目标是让你每天都开怀大笑，”她说。该品种起源于法国。美国养犬俱乐部表示，这种小型猎犬在美国最常见的纯种犬中排名第 154 位。Buddy Holly 也在英国、爱尔兰和澳大利亚生活过并参加过比赛。About 2,500 dogs competed at Westminster this year. The show also includes obedience and agility competitions that are open to mixed-breed dogs. And what is next for Buddy Holly? A good night's sleep, “upside down, rolling in pillows,” Hayes said. “He just gets to go back to being a dog.”今年大约有 2,500 只狗参加了威斯敏斯特比赛。该节目还包括对混种犬开放的服从性和敏捷性比赛。 Buddy Holly 的下一步是什么？睡个好觉，“倒过来，在枕头里打滚，”海耶斯说。 “他只是变回了一条狗。”

Elaine Lessig: “Fashionista” Passionate About Dog Judging Judge and self-proclaimed “fashionista” Elaine Lessig joins host Laura Reeves to share her passion for dogs and dog judging. Lessig started her purebred dog journey in the 1980s with Cavalier King Charles Spaniels before they were recognized by the AKC. Today she judges the toy, sporting and non-sporting groups. “I love (judging),” Lessig said. “But I'm smart enough to know that I don't want to judge everything. Every breed has its detail and I think coming from toy dogs was a distinct advantage. Every toy dog breed is a boutique item. I don't look at sporting dogs as retrievers and pointers and spaniels, they're each a unique breed and I think I bring that detail into it. “I have no other reason to be here than I love what I do and it gives me so much pleasure. I am not a professional judge in terms of this is not my income. I don't have to go out and judge. I'm very happy doing just my three groups. This is a passion. It isn't a product. “I love to see the connection between whoever it is that's handling the dog and the dog. I think the dog is better with somebody that they have that wonderful relationship with. I think they perform better. I'm looking for a show dog on those days and then I want to see a dog in good condition. Conditioning is everything here. I'm most offended if you bring me a dirty dog. “You have to take your losses and you have to put your losses in the loss pile. When you have a chance, you can get them washed and cleaned up again, but you can't dwell on those things because tomorrow is another day, said Scarlett O'Hara. I won't get negative about this. I refuse to do it.” Known for her fabulous wardrobe and keen sense of style, Lessig shares memories of Sandra Goose Allen, meeting https://puredogtalk.com/captivate-podcast/david-fitzpatrick-on-pekingese-the-palace-dogs-of-peking-pure-dog-talk/ (David Fitzpatrick's) Pekingese Malachy the night he arrived in the US and celebrating after the team won the Garden in 2012.

David Fitzpatrick on Pekingese, the Palace Dogs of Peking http://www.pequest.com/ (David Fitzpatrick), 2012 Westminster Kennel Club BIS winner with the Pekingese, Malachy, was obsessed with dogs as a child. Although his parents wouldn’t let him own a dog, he found ways to be involved  with them by walking and housesitting dogs in the neighborhood. David Fitzpatrick receiving the Westminster Kennel Club BIS ribbon from judge Cindy Vogels. His passion took off around 1970 when he wrote a letter to a local handler to see if she needed help. Before he knew it, he was being picked up after school, earning $5/day helping her with Pekingese and other toy breeds. “It could have been pretty much any breed,” Fitzpatrick said. “I fell into the lap of the Pekingese and loved them from the start. It was fate really.” “Speak to anyone who is remotely involved with the Pekingese breed and the mention of David Fitzpatrick’s name will result in a degree of awe and reverence, for this American gentleman is acknowledged as being as fine a handler and presenter of a Pekingese as has ever been seen,” says noted British author Andrew Brace. What is it about Pekingese? The dogs of royalty in China, the first Pekingese specialty show was held in the US around 1908, Fitzpatrick said. “The breed attracted the pillars of society. They were the status symbol dog of the day and were the most popular toy breed into the ‘60s.” “It is a detail oriented breed,” Fitzpatrick noted, “with their pear shaped body, rectangular head, features spread out and not crowded, heavy bone, crooked legs, level back and high tail set.” Pekingese should have an intelligent expression, one that is almost arrogant and disdainful. “Their true temperament is snooty,” Fitzpatrick said. “They were developed as palace dogs in China. They were royalty and had their own servants. They are generally waiting for you to do for them. It’s not a breed that really wants to please their humans.” Pekes as pets Fitzpatrick said the breed is great to live with. “They blend into the household,” he noted. “They get their loves and then go entertain themselves. They’re not constantly clawing at you like some dogs. They’re more independent.” Pekingese have a great deal of personality, Fitzpatrick added. While they are at a show they are performing, showing their regal and aristocratic nature. At home, they’re like any other dogs, they chase squirrels and his dogs even dug out a nest of baby bunnies. Breed specific presentation “It’s up to us to show our dogs in a proper manner, not succumb to this crazy show biz of dogs chasing bait around the ring… an aristocratic breed really should not be begging for food, should they?” Support this podcast

However, we still know relatively little about how the brain works and how it develops. David’s goal is to dive deep into these basic science questions of how the brain works and how it develops. David received his B.S. degree in Biology from Pennsylvania State University and his PhD in Psychology and Neuroscience from Duke University. He conducted postdoctoral research at the Medical University of South Carolina and then returned to Duke University as a member of the faculty. Before accepting his current positions at the Max Planck Florida Institute, David was the James B. Duke Professor of Neurobiology and Director of the Institute for Brain Sciences at Duke University. David has received numerous awards and honors over the course of his career for his outstanding research and teaching, including the 2011 Ellis Island Medal of Honor from the National Ethnic Coalition of Organizations, the Alfred P. Sloan Research Award, the Cajal Club Cortical Discoverer Award, the McKnight Neuroscience Investigator Award, and the Excellence in Basic Science Teaching Award from Duke University School of Medicine. David joined us for an interview to share his experiences in life and science.

This paper focuses on the loyalist community in Cavan and Monaghan from the signing of the Ulster Covenant through to the establishment of the Irish Free State and the Civil War. In particular, it focuses on the awkward questions of identity faced by the community after the partition of Ireland in 1921 (and by the growing likelihood of this event in the years previous). Cavan and Monaghan, along with Donegal, represented the three Ulster counties with the lowest Protestant populations. Cavan and Monaghan existed on the edges of Ulster itself with loyalist social networks overlapping with the distinctly non-Ulster counties of Meath, Louth, Longford and Leitrim. Despite this, these counties claimed to profess as strong an “Ulster Unionist” identity as their more Northerly neighbours. This was supported in 1912 with their enthusiastic support for the Ulster Covenant. In signing this the Cavan and Monaghan Unionists effectively sundered their own political future from that of their southern coreligionists. However, the three counties were to be similarly cast adrift from the North just a few years later when the Ulster Unionist Council accepted the principle of six county partition. This represented a severe identity crisis for the Unionists of Cavan and Monaghan. This paper examines both how prevalent an “Ulster” identity can be said to be in these two counties before then moving on to explore the ways in which this community successfully and unsuccessfully recast themselves as southern Unionists. In doing so it touches on important questions such as what it the idea of Ulster and an Ulster identity actually mean, how intertwined Southern and Ulster Unionism were in the border region and how the new Northern state functioned as a cultural symbol for southern loyalists. Daniel Purcell is a 3rd year PhD candidate in the History Department of Trinity College, supervised by David Fitzpatrick and Anne Dolan. He completed his undergraduate degree in Somerville College Oxford before returning to Trinity College for his MPhil and PhD. His research focuses on Southern Irish Protestantism in the Irish Revolution. Specifically, he is interested in the Irish border region and how the narrative and understanding of the Revolution is impacted by the overlap of different identities (Protestant, loyalist, Ulsterman) within the community. He has been published in the Breifne Historical Journal and Irish Lives Remembered.

What is basic science, and how is it significant in the realm of brain research and the future progress of our society? Your hosts Joe, Misha, and Ben sit down with Dr. David Fitzpatrick, Scientific Director of the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience and tackle those questions and more on the first episode of the Neurotransmissions podcast, tackling neuroscience stories from the lab and life - a special episode to celebrate Brain Awareness Week, 2016.
