Abdullah Mujahid is a citizen of Afghanistan who is still held in extrajudicial detention after being transferred from United States Guantanamo Bay detainment camps, in Cuba — to an Afghan prison.[1][2]
His Guantanamo Internment Serial Number was 1100.
According to the Associated Press the allegations against Mujahid, in his Combatant Status Review Tribunal, state Mujahid was head of security for the city of Gardez and for Paktia province. [3] He was accused of ties to al Qaeda and of attacking U.S. forces, and was arrested in July 2003.
Mujahid claimed he was loyal to the coalition.[3]

Abdullah Mujahid is militia leader from Afghanistan's Tajik ethnic group, who rose up against the Taliban in the closing days of its administration of Afghanistan.[4] The Afghanistan Transitional Authority rewarded Mujahid, and other militia leaders who had risen up against the Taliban, with the control of security forces. Both Mujahid and Pacha Khan Zadran, a Pashtun from the Zadran tribe, were rewarded with security appointments in Paktia province.
Mujahid and Zadran struggled to consolidate greater shares of control over Paktia's security forces.[4] Mujahid and Zadran's forces were reported to have engaged in gun battles during their disputes. Both men's forces were accused of abusing their authority and routinely robbing civilians at their roadblocks.
By 2003 both men were regarded as renegades and enemies by US forces.
A high-level delegation from Kabul visited Mujahid, and offered him a nominally more senior position in Kabul as a "Highway Commander".[4] Mujahid accepted this offer, and yielded up his position as Chief of Police of Gardez, and traveled to Kabul. But the promised promotion never materialized. When Mujahid returned hom to Gardez, he was sent to Guantanamo.
Zadran's nephew, and Lieutenant, Jan Baz, was also apprehended and sent to Bagram Theater detention facility. But Zadran remained at large, and now represents Paktia in the Afghan Parliament.[4]
Mujahid faced a number of allegations during his Combatant Status Review Tribunal and Administrative Review Board hearings: notably that he was fired for corruption and collusion with the opposition, that he was a senior commander of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistani militant group based in Kashmir.[4] He was also accused of currently being a member of Harakat-e-Mulavi, a group which American intelligence analysts believe is now allied with the rebels.
Mujahid's lawyers assert that the Lashkar-e-Taiba connection is a case of mistaken identity.[4] A senior commander of the Lashkar-e-Taiba, also named Abdullah Mujahid, was killed in 2006. Mujahid's lawyers acknowledge that he fought with Harakat-e-Mulavi, against some of Afghanistan's foreign occupiers—during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, during the 1980s.
All of the allegations against Mujahid have been dropped in early 2007, and he was cleared for release.[4] But, as of August 2007, he still remains in Guantanamo.
Combatant Status Review[edit]
The Bush administration asserted that:
- the protections of the Geneva Conventions did not extend to captured prisoners who are not members of the regular Afghan armed force nor meet the criteria for prisoner of war for voluntary forces.[5]
Critics argued the Conventions obliged the U.S. to conduct competent tribunals to determine the status of prisoners. Subsequently, the U.S. Department of Defense instituted Combatant Status Review Tribunals (CSRTs), to determine whether detainees met the new definition of an "enemy combatant".
"Enemy combatant" was defined by the U.S. Department of Defense as:
- an individual who was part of, or supporting, the Taliban, or al-Qaeda forces, or associated forces that are engaged in hostilities against the United States or its coalition partners. This includes any person who commits a belligerent act or has directly supported hostilities in aid of enemy armed forces.[6]
The CSRTs are not bound by the rules of evidence that would normally apply in civilian court, and the government's evidence is presumed to be "genuine and accurate."[7] From July 2004 through March 2005, CSRTs were convened to determine whether each prisoner had been correctly classified as an "enemy combatant".
Abdullah Mujahid was among the 60% of prisoners who chose to participate in tribunal hearings.[8] A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for the tribunal of each detainee, listing the allegations that supported their detention as an "enemy combatant".
Abdullah Mujahid's memo accused him of the following: [9]
- a. The detainee is associated with al Qaida:
- After the fall of the Taliban, the detainee served as a police force commander in Gardez, Afghanistan.
- The detainee was fired from his appointed position due to suspicions of collusion with anti-government forces.
- The detainee has been a member of Harakat-e-Mulavi for at least the last four years.
- Harakat-e-Mulavi is an extremist group that is known to have ties with al Qaida and the Taliban.
- b. The detainee participated in military operations against the United States or its coalition partners.
- The detainee was responsible for an attack on US Forces in the vicinity of Gardeyz City, Afghanistan.
- The detainee was responsible for this attack in retaliation for being fired.
- The detainee was captured by U.S forces in July 2003.
Mujahid requested eight witnesses:
- Said Mohammed Ali Shah - a Guantanamo detainee.
- Haji Mohammed Aktiar - the Tribunal's President doesn't identify Aktiar any further, but assumes he is back in Afghanistan. In fact three individuals named Akhtiar Mohammed were detained in Guantanamo, and two were still in detention at the time of the Tribunals.
- Mohammed Aman - also a Guantanamo detainee.
- Mohammed Musa - apparently also a Guantanamo detainee. But his name does not match that of any on the official list.[10]
- Shahzdeh Masoud - one of Hamid Karzai's advisors, who led a delegation to Gardez to convince Mujahid to step down.[11]
- Gulltay Deh - the Afghan Defense Ministry's representative on Masoud's delegation.[11]
- Haji Saifullah - the Boston Globe reported Saifullah was dead.[11]
- Minister of Interior - Ahmed Ali Jalali - the Interior Ministry's representative on Masoud's delegation, currently teaching at the National Defense University in Washington DC.[11]
The Tribunal's President decided to allow three of the other Guantanamo detainees as witnesses. However, he informed Mujahid that they would not be allowed to testify, in person, for "Force Protection reasons". He then informed Mujahid that American officials had not been able to secure the cooperation of the Afghan government in locating the witnesses back in Afghanistan.
The Boston Globe reported that they found that many witnesses that detainees had requested, who US officials claimed were not reasonably available, were easily located.[11][12] The article particularly the ease with which they located Mujahid's witnesses. It quoted the President of Mujahid's Tribunal:
- "The Afghan government was contacted on or about 26 November 2004, As of this date, the Afghanistan government has not responded to our request. . . . Without the cooperation of that government, we are unable to contact those witnesses and to obtain the testimony you requested."
The article then stated: "But in Afghanistan earlier this month, a reporter for the Globe located three of the four witnesses in a matter of days."
Mujahid chose to participate in his Combatant Status Review Tribunal. [13] On March 3, 2006, in response to a court order from Jed Rakoff the Department of Defense published a twelve-page summarized transcript from his Combatant Status Review Tribunal, and nine pages of statements from witnesses who were not allowed to testify in person at his Tribunal.[14]
Mujahid denied that he was removed due to suspicions of collusion with anti-government forces. He testified that he left the position of Provincial Security Chief to assume a new position in Kabul. He claimed the witnesses of the visiting commission would testify that he left his position to take a promotion. Mujahid denied being associated with any anti-government forces. He also denied any responsibility for any attacks on US or coalition forces.
The three witnesses he called all confirmed that he had been an effective Police commander for the Karzai government, and confirmed that he was not fired, he was promoted.
They attributed their captures to false denunciations from rival factions within Karzai's coalition.
Hafizullah Shabaz Khail's accusation[edit]
Guantanamo detainee Hafizullah Shabaz Khail said that Mujahid had arrested him, when his mentor, the Governor, of his Province was in Kabul.[15][16] Khail was the District Chief of Zormat, and the chair of security committee in Paktia Province. Khail said his arrest, and the false allegations against him, were due to his arrest of a protégé of Mujahid, named Taj Mohammed. According to Khail, Taj Mohammed was a security officer who worked under Mujahid, who had abused his uniform and his authority to rob a businessman of 200,000 Khaldars. Khail said he forced Taj Mohammed to pay the businessman back.
Abdullah Musahed v. George W. Bush[edit]
A writ of habeas corpus, Abdullah Musahed v. George W. Bush, was submitted on Abdullah Musahed's behalf.[17] In response, on 10 August 2005, the Department of Defense published 37 pages of unclassified documents related to his Combatant Status Review Tribunal. On December 17, 2004 Tribunal panel 26 convened an confirmed his "enemy combatant" status.
The documents published from Abdullah's CSR Tribunal state that his original Tribunal President was replaced. The documents contain multiple incompatible explanations as to why Mohammed Musa's testimony was not made available. The documents state that the original Tribunal President had ruled his testimony "redundant". His Personal Representative's notes, however, stated that he couldn't find Mohammed Musa.
The CSRT's Legal Advisor recorded in his Legal Sufficiency Review:
The Tribunal President determined that the testimony of the fourth detainee witness was not relevant since the testimony was of a duplicative nature. In my opinion, the Tribunal should not have deemed the witness testimony duplicative; however, the Tribunal properly determined that the detainee was an enemy combatant absent this witness testimony.
Administrative Review Board[edit]
Detainees whose Combatant Status Review Tribunal labeled them "enemy combatants" were scheduled for annual Administrative Review Board hearings. These hearings were designed to assess the threat a detainee might pose if released or transferred, and whether there were other factors that warranted his continued detention.[18]
Summary of Evidence memo[edit]
A Summary of Evidence memo was prepared for Abdullah Mujahid's Administrative Review Board, on 23 June 2005.[19] The memo listed factors for and against his continued detention.
The following primary factors favor continued detention[edit]
- a. Commitment
- The detainee went to fight in the jihad against the Russians between 1987 and 1991.
- The detainee was an assistant Investigation Commander for the police in Gardez between 1992 and 1995. Between 1995 and 1998, he was the military commander of an air defense bas in Kabul. From 2001 until 2003, the detainee was a Criminal Investigation Officer for the Gardez police.
- The detainee was responsible for an attack near Gardez, Afghanistan which caused the death of one American and injury of two others.
- b. Training
- The detainee was a former Lashkar-e-Tayyiba commander.
- The Lashkar-e-Tayyiba is the armed wing of the Pakistan-based religious organization, Markaz-ud-Dawa-irshad, a Sunni anti-U.S. missionary organization formed in 1989.
- The Pakistani terrorist group Lashkar-e-Tayyiba had been transporting and hiding al Qaida members who escaped from Afghanistan. The detainee was identified as working in Quetta, Pakistan, assisting al Qaida members to move out of Afghanistan.
- The detainee was identified as a member of the Military Council for the Lashkar-e-Tayyiba.
- The detainee was chosen to replace Muhammad Azam Cheema as the Chief of Operations in India during a Lashkar-e-Tayyiba meeting in Muridke, Pakistan in February to early March 2003.
- The detainee was reported to have ties to Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin and al Qaida.
- Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin is a faction of the Hezb-e-Islami party, and it was one of the major mudjahedin groups in the war against the Soviets. Hezb-e-Islami Gulbuddin has long-established ties with Bin Ladin.
- The detainee is affiliated with Mullah Abdul Fatah, a member of al Qaida, who conducted a meeting in Kabul, Afghanistan, on 16 August 2003, to recruit former explosive experts to conduct attacks.
- The detainee was in contact with Saif Ur Rahman, a Taliban commander in Gardez, and Jalaluddin Haqqani, and al Qaida commander in Pakistan. The detainee worked against the U.S. and International Security Assistance Force and the Afghan government. The detainee had ties to local anti-coalition militias.
- Rahman has known links with both Taliban and al Qaida.
- Haqqani is the former commander in chief of the Talian Southern Forces and is heavily involved in the drug trade.
- c. Intent
- During a meeting with an Afghan Military force commander, General Zia Udeen and the detainee discussed operations to create disorder in the outlying areas around Gardez to disrupt civil security.
- Other Relevant Data
- The detainee was in the Afghan military during the Rabbani government and fought against the Taliban. He was appointed as head of security for Gardez and Paktia, and continued in this position during the Karzai government.
- The detainee was fired and replaced as Director of Security for the Gardez area due to suspicions of collusion with anti-government forces.
- a. Commitment
The following primary factors favor release or transfer[edit]
The detainee stated he was never associated or affiliated with any Taliban or al Qaida members, nor was he ever part of any military council associated with anti-U.S. and anti-coalition activities.
The detainee stated he approves of the American involvement in Afghanistan because they are improving the country for everyone. When asked his feelings on jihad, the detainee stated he simply fought against the Russians when he was handed a weapon.
The detainee claimed that neither he nor Zia Udeen did anything to create internal strife between competing villages and groups in Gardez and Paktia.
The detainee stated he never heard of Mullah Abdul Fatah.
Mujahid chose to participate in his Administrative Review Board hearing.[20]
Response to the factors[edit]
- Mujahid confirmed he fought against the Soviets—for about eight months, when he was sixteen or seventeen. After the Soviets withdrew he fought against the Communist government that had been left behind.
- Mujahid confirmed that he had worked for the Rabbani government prior to the Taliban regime, and had served as a police officer after its fall. But, during the Taliban's regime he laid low, and worked as a simple farmer.
- Mujahid denied participating in an anti-US attack in Gardez. He disputed that this incident took place.
- In response to the allegation that he was a "former Lashkar-e-Tayyiba commander" he asked the time frame when he was supposed to have filled this role. He said he had given his interrogators a full account of his life, and there were no gaps in it when he could have been a Lashkar-e-Tayyiba. He added:
"I don't even know the meaning of this word; this is the first time I have heard this word here. I was never asked about it during the interrogation or the tribunal. I don't know anything bad."
- After the factor where Lashkar-e-Tayyiba's roots in Pakistan were outlined he pointed out:
"I'm from Afghanistan and not Pakistan and I would never go and join some Pakistani group or fight. I never traveled to Pakistan. I never went to their schools or Madrassa's. I wasn't raised in Pakistan. I'm Afghan."
Mujahid and the claim that captives were "captured on the battlefield"[edit]
On August 12, 2007 Farah Stockman, writing in the Boston Globe used Mjuahid'd story to comment on the Bush administration's claim that Guantanamo captives had been apprehended "on the battlefield".[4] Stockman described Mujahid as an early supporter during the overthrow of the Taliban, whose usefulness waned after their ouster, because he was illiterate, and was rumored to be corrupt.
Stockman wrote:
A Globe investigation found that the military has used Guantanamo Bay not just for terrorists "picked up on the battlefield" -- as Bush has repeatedly asserted -- but also for uncooperative or unruly tribal chieftains, many of whom had been key supporters of the US-led invasion.
Transfer to an Afghan prison[edit]
On November 25, 2008 the Department of Defense published a list of when Guantanamo captives were repatriated.[21] According to that list he was repatriated on December 12, 2007.
The Center for Constitutional Rights reports that all of the Afghans repatriated to Afghanistan from April 2007 were sent to Afghan custody in the American built and supervised wing of the Pul-e-Charkhi prison near Kabul.[2]

"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind" - Einstein
There have been a few recent polls asking which type of man you are, science or faith or if faith trumps science...As an educated believer I do NOT believe faith/science contradict each other; but it seems like everyone thinks they do just because they're portrayed like that on TV. This is mostly due to the Church kicking Galileo out years ago, but that was reversed by John Paul II.
A priest invented the Big Bang Theory and presented it with Einstein. The president of Harvards Evolutionary Dynamics Program and the president of the Human Genome Project are both practicing Catholics. There are many Popes and Cardinals who have/do believe in and write about evolution. Science is God's formula.
In the end it was nice to see Jack become a man of faith while still being a man of science. Please do not feel as if its a choice you have to make.

Back in July, with only a week leading up to the Republican National Convention, Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump had narrowed his vice presidential selections to three primary picks: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former Speaker Newt Gingrich and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Ultimately, the VP slot went to Pence, but a new report by the New York Post reveals Trump's original choice was actually Christie.
On July 12, the New Jersey governor contacted Trump to try to win him over to be his running mate. "Trump cares about who's the most loyal and who kisses his a–- the most, not who's the most qualified and what's the best political decision," a source close to the campaign told the New York Post."If it was up to him, it would have been Christie."
Then, a second source told the publication that Christie thinks "he deserves it and he earned it… he said all the BS that Trump likes to hear, and Trump said, 'Yeah, sure I'm giving it to you,'" according to the newspaper.
However, GOP advisers and members of his family reportedly actively wanted Trump to choose Pence as his running mate. Trump's campaign chairman at the time, Paul Manafort, arranged for him to meet with Pence in Indianapolis on July 13. After learning his plane was having mechanical malfunctions and they would have to stay one more night, the GOP nominee was swayed by Pence.
The advisers and Pence warned of the issues Christie would bring with the Bridgegate controversy, and that it would destroy the credibility of the Trump campaign. "Trump had wanted Christie but Bridgegate would have been the biggest national story," a third Trump source said. "He'd lose the advantage of not being corrupt." Reportedly, when Trump told Christie he would then not be choosing him, he said it would "tear my family apart if I gave you VP."

Departmental Club for Photography
I attended the first meeting of the Departmental Club/Society for photography in the Department of Information Studies in Sheffield. The club is going to be active in different aspects of photography including the way that we can share our ideas and photos and improve our skills of photography. We will soon have a weblog for the club with the photos that members will take or have already taken and like top share them with others. In today meeting each of us showed a photo that we have taken and explained why we like it. I also showed one of the recent photos that I have taken in Sheffield. Moreover, I mentioned this weblog and told the members of the club that I upload different photos to my weblog to make it more colourful and hopefully more interesting for the reader while there is no link between the contents of the entries and the photos next to them.

Off the Web
I used to have access to the web at home and always considered it as a bonus. I could not imagine a day without it. It was an indispensable part of my stuff at home. However, recently I do not have access to it at home and interestingly I found it very useful! I just noticed how much time I used to spend on the web. Now I spend that time on reading books which is much more enjoyable.

Photos on this Weblog
I am posting this entry just to clarify some issues about the photos on this weblog. First of all, there is no link between the photos and the contents of each post. Therefore, please do not seek any connection between contents and photos because there isn't any. I just upload photos to make the weblog somehow colourful and hopefully more interesting. Moreover, over a period of time this weblog has turned to a personal album for me and sometimes I look back and browse the photos which remind me the places that I have been. In addition, all photos on this weblog have been and are taken by me. I bought a digital camera three years ago and since then I have taken more than three to four thousands photos by it. Photos displayed on the weblog form only a small selection of that collection. Most photos have been taken in different parts of Britain and a few in Sweden. I can write a caption for each photo to explain about it, but to be honest I cannot spend any more time on the weblog and just keeping it up-to-date is time-consuming enough.

Web Science
Thank to my friend Alireza who informed me about 'Web Science'. Recently, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Southampton in Britain are going to start a joint research program in Web science. Based on this piece of news in the New York Times, web science "… has social and engineering dimensions. It extends well beyond traditional computer science … to include the emerging research in social networks and the social sciences that is being used to study how people behave on the web … web science … shifts the centre of gravity in engineering research from how a single computer works to how huge decentralized web systems work. In particular I like the quotation form Berners-Lee in the news who said: "The Web isn't about what you can do with computers … it's people and, yes, they are connected by computers. But computer science, as the study of what happens in a computer, doesn't tell you about what happens on the web."

Teaching Assistants Away Day
Today I attended the annual teaching assistants away day which our department runs once a year to provide research students and research staff with an opportunity to share their experiences of teaching with each other and also enhance their teaching skills. Just like last year it was a wonderful experience and I enjoyed of participation in all the discussions and I learned a lot from the other participants' views. The workshop was held in the university Staff Development unit and my friend, Peter Stordy who works in our department as a University Teacher and Learning & Teaching Advocate, was the main organizer of it. We explored different issues such as Effective Listening, Effective Feedback, and Problem Management related to teaching. The session was very interactive and everyone did participate in different discussions and debates.
Upcoming Paper
A journal paper entitled 'Methodological Approaches in Web Search Research' written by me and my friend, Dr. Andrew Madden, is going to be published in The Electronic Library, Vol. 25, No.1, which scheduled to appear in February 2007. We developed the paper based on our experience of doing research in the area and a selective review of the past eleven years of research on information seeking on the web . As the title shows we mainly focused on the methodological aspects of research on web searching and tried to depict and overall picture of this issue.

More on INF6350
My supervisor, Sheila Webber, has posted an entry on her weblog about our joint lecture. We will write more about this issue in the near future.
Social Aspects of the Web
I was listening to the radio four today morning. It was on the news that Sir Tim Berners-Lee who is the inventor of the web has called for more research on social aspects of the web and asked for further collaboration from researchers in different areas to do more studies on this issue. It means researchers in the technical-oriented camp are acknowledging the importance of the non-technical aspects of the web.
Wednesday, November 01, 2006
Yesterday I delivered a lecture for MA students of librarianship and MSc. students of information management in the department. I was an invited lecturer for the sixth week of the module of INF6350, Access to Information Resources and Information Literacy. The lecture's title was 'Web Searching Behaviour: A Diagnostic Tool". The lecture went very well. I tried to summarize my four years' journey from the 'invisible web' to 'information visibility' in a simple language. I don't know how successful I was in describing the research for the students but luckily they enthusiastically participated in an exercise which my supervisor and I had been designed to assess their search skills on the web in the light of the model that I developed in my PhD.

iPhone 4 S coming before iPhone 5 scheduled for 2012?
May 31, 2011 at 5:56 pm
The real evolution of the Apple smartphone is the iPhone 5. The iPhone 4 S is only a model of transition.
This is probably the most interesting information revealed by the Japanese website Macotakara: iPhone 4 S could emerge in the weeks (or months) to come but is merely a timid evolution of the iPhone 4.
We should therefore wait until spring or summer 2012 to see a really innovative iPhone 5, with a new design and new advanced features. The site most likely obtained the confidential info from companies working with Apple.
Also, Macotakara claims that the iPhone 4 S that will be released in the meantime will be well equipped with the Apple A5 chip, which also equips the iPad 2. That means it could be it a mono-core version of the ARM chip, not the dual-core model found in the second generation tablet.
There will also be a photo sensor, which would rise to 8 megapixels without knowing whether the perspective of the iPhone 4 will be extended. Finally, Macotakara says that this iPhone 4 S will be compatible with GSM and CDMA, and will have an integrated SIM card.

As of this posting they're only about 1/3 of the way to their goal with 22 days left. I figured I'd do my part to help spread the word a little as I know a good portion of the very few of you that read this are also as devout a Cultist as I.
I feel like this needs to be part of my alter.

Singing Lessons
Sing Strong, Sing Well.
I am a baritone with a doctorate in vocal performance and I currently sing with the Metropolitan Opera in New York. I have taught voice for over 10 years to singers of all ages and all singing styles. I also have experience singing musical theater, pop and standards.

*vowel formation
*jaw, neck, shoulder and/or tongue tension
*dynamic range
Please contact me with any questions you may have about my rates, availability, teaching style, repertoire, resume and/or vocal technique. I will send you a thorough reply ASAP.
Thank you and ENJOY SINGING!

Astor Piazzolla : Tangos in Vocal Harmony
Review: It has been said that you can see Buenos Aires while listening to Astor Piazzolla's music. This is one of his talents that sets him apart from other composers. Piazzolla made a revolution with the tango, which created many problems for him in his country (traditionalists did not accept his music as tango). But everybody finally accepted his changes because his music put the Argentine dance, the tango, at the highest level. Gentle tango rhythms and modern harmonies infuse these folk-like tunes.
Songlist: Verano Porteno, Libertango, Primavera Poertena, Invierno Poerteno, Otono Porteno, Reminiscense
Bryan Sharp : All Around A Cappella

Clayton Parr : Supra! A Feast of Georgian Song
Review: Traditional choirs, folk ensembles or any other group of singers will enjoy this collection of songs from the Republic of Georgia selected, notated and recorded by Clayton Parr and Carl Linich. Like folk songs from the rest of the world, Georgian songs are traditionally connected with events of daily life - work songs, laments, lullabies, songs about historical events or figures, ritual songs, healing songs, traveling songs, comic songs, and dance songs. Table songs are a particularly important genre, and the tradition of the supra (ritual banquet), with elaborate toasts and songs, occupies a central position in Georgian traditional culture. Traditionally, these songs are in three polyphonic voice parts, and the authors have provided many pedagogical tools for learning: recordings, pronunciation guides, lyric sheets, song backgrounds and recordings. Includes 18 songs, CD includes song demos, part-Learning tracks available online.
Songlist: Aghdgomasa Shensa, Alilo Imeruli, Aliluia, Aragvispiruli Lashkruli, Brdzana Soloman, Es Akvani, Kriste Aghsdga, Lashkrad Tsasvla, Lashkruli, Mamli Mukhasa, Mokle Shemodzahkili, Nanina, Patara Simonia, Patskha, Perad Shindi, Saokhunjo Perkhuli, Shen Khar Venakhi, Ts'Ints'Qaro, Mokle Mravalzhamieri

Leo Nestor : Four Part Songs From The Highlands
Review: "These settings were commissioned by my alma mater California State University, Hayward, a place of happy memory and abiding affection and ties. How privileged I was to hear the premiere performance of the Chamber Singers and Dr. Roberta Brokaw, flute, conducted by Dr. David Stein on 15 March 1998. Three of the settings are of pre-existing tunes; O, My Luve Is Like a Red, Red Rose is originally composed. Similarly, two texts are from the tradition, and two sing the poetry of Robert Burns."Singers and conductors of these works are encouraged to render the texts of these love songs with an ear to an authentic Scots accent.
Songlist: Ca' the Yowes, O, My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose, Will Ye Go, Lassie Go?, Fareweel tae Tarwathie
New York Voices : Old Friends
Review: This new choral collection represents and celebrates the incredible cross-section of high-level artistry of the beloved New York Voices - the award-winning vocal jazz group the world has adored for nearly 30 years.

Songlist: Baby Driver, Bli-Blip, Bookends, Come Home, I'll Be Seeing You , Me and Julio Down By The Schoolyard, Mother And Child Reunion, Old Friends, Sing, Sing, Sing, Smack Dab In The Middle, Why Don't You Write Me
Salamu Aleikum : Choral Music of the Muslim World
Review: Muslim choral music? There are numerous examples of group singing in the Muslim world, almost all of which is non-notated. Many of these group singing genres date back several centuries, such as the genre of Arab music called the muwashshahat, a song tradition that started in Muslim Spain and has continued vigorously until modern times.While there are numerous examples of Muslim group singing, notated part-singing is a product of colonization, Westernization, Christianization, and now globalization. It is becoming increasingly popular for composers in the Muslim world to arrange and compose music for the Western-style choir, and this collection serves to introduce participants to the breadth of Muslim culture, some Muslim songs, and the great diaspora of music of the Muslim world through a selection of pieces from different social, and cultural contexts.
Songlist: Ai'Yu, Fog Elna Khel, Adinu, Yal Asmar Ellon, Entarisi Ala Benziyor, Lammaa Badaa Yatathannaa
Various Arrangers : Hit Songs for Mixed Voices
Review: "Hallelujah" - This well-crafted a cappella arrangement emphasizes the plaintive, haunting song written by Leonard Cohen, and alternates between a four-part texture and more fully voiced chords. Mesmerizing! "Hawaii Five-O Theme" - It's the instantly recognized theme from the incredibly popular TV show, now familiar to a new generation of fans in the 2010 version of the series. A great a cappella showcase for pop, jazz and show choirs, your singers will build performance skills and have fun in the process! "Skyfall" - The hit single by Adele from the motion picture Skyfall has been creatively arranged by J.A.C Redford, the orchestrator of the film. Using vocal percussion and divisi vocal parts, J.A.C. has created a setting that is perfect for jazz and show choirs as well as concert choirs."Waiting on the World to Change" - John Mayer's groovy, soulful anthem in full, 5-part a cappella harmony with solo (duet on the choruses). Light reggae groove/feel woven among pop harmonies above a playful bass line. Vocal percussion optional.
Songlist: Hallelujah, Hawaii Five-O Theme, Skyfall, Waiting on the World to Change
Various Arrangers : Latin Pop Hits
Review: "Bailamos" - Let the rhythm take you over...Bailamos! Enrique Iglesias #1 hit from 1999 sizzles with Latin fire in this setting that will totally energize your concert.

Various Arrangers : Music from La La Land for Mixed Voices
Review: And the Oscar goes to ... "City of Stars", the signature song from critically acclaimed and highly awarded La La Land. Winner of Best Original Song at the Academy Awards, the Golden Globes, and the Critic's Choice Movie Awards, this melancholy yet hopeful ballad features a haunting tune and a distinctive piano accompaniment that are instantly recognizable and extremely well suited for choral groups. Here's the optimistic opening number "Another Day of Sun". Who can forget those boisterous singing and dancing motorists on L.A.'s jammed 110 freeway at the start of the 2016 box office smash? This dynamic arrangement captures the excitement of the score with rhythmic drive, varied choral textures, and a rousing accompaniment. A perfect opener or closer, and a golden opportunity for choreography! "Someone in the Crowd" - The cast of gets all dolled up and heads to a lavish Hollywood Hills party during this big production number from the hugely successful motion picture. The lively tempo, jazzy feel, and cheeky lyrics are fantastically fun and fuel the fire to become (or find) that someone special amongst a crowd of hopefuls. Great for all choirs, and especially girls' groups! The stunning song "Audition (The Fools Who Dream)" was an emotional showcase for actress Emma Stone in her award-winning performance as Mia in the 2016 blockbuster La La Land. Nominated for Best Original Song at the 89th Academy Awards, the poignant piece tells the story of one woman's life and acknowledges the dreamer in all of us. A beautiful choral setting of a very special song.

A.R. Rahman : Balleilakka
Review: Balleilakka is a song from the Tamil film Sivaji, which means "The Boss." Tamil is the language of the Southern Indian province of Tamil Nadu whose capital, Chennai (Madras under British rule) is India's third-largest city and A.R. Rahman's home. An old language dating back to before 300 B.C., Tamil is the native language of Singapore and Sri Lanka as well as tens of millions of Indians (there are almost 2,000 newspapers in print in Tamil today of which about 350 are daily papers). The text of this piece is a tongue-twister lamenting how traditional Indian culture is being subsumed and listing the speaker's memories of his homeland in increasingly faster syllabic patterns.Often referred to as "The Indian Mozart", A.R. Rahman writes at least as fast, having completed over 100 film scores since 1992. His soundtracks have sold more than 300 million copies worldwide, making him one of the best-selling recording artists of all time. He has won fourteen of India's Filmfare awards (the equivalent of the Oscar) and his first two Academy Awards in 2008, one for "Jai Ho" being the Best Song of the Year.
Songlist: Balleilakka
A.R. Rahman : Barso Re
Review: Barso Re, written by A. R. Rahman and arranged for choir by Ethan Sperry, appeared in the soundtrack of the 2007 film Guru.

For percussion, use a beaded gourd shaker, rasp, or tambourine for the upper line and one or more djembes or floor toms for the lower line.
Songlist: Barso Re

Alan Wilson : Carols Old and New - Easter
Review: Volume IV of Seasonal Carols Old & New is an exciting new venture into previously unexplored territory. Apart from a small number of Easter carols, there has been little music available for festivals other than Christmas. In Seasonal Carols Volume IV all the main seasons are represented, and in addition festivals such as Corpus Christi, Candlemas, The Transfiguration of Saints' Days receive timely attention. As a complete contrast and in a secular vein, a new rustic mixedvoice arrangement of King Henry VIII's "Pastime With Good Company" has been added. This volume is intended to give churches, schools and colleges a wide selection of material that will help to add a richer feeling to a liturgically - based Christian year.

Review: In traditional "Parker" style, Alice has arranged a bright a cappella setting of the American folk-tune "Happy In The Lord" with stunning effect."I Want Two Wings" is a light, brisk spiritual arranged for a cappella voices.

Anton Bruckner : Seven Sacred Hymns
Review: Anton Bruckner (4 September 1824 - 11 October 1896) was an Austrian composer known primarily for his symphonies, masses, and motets. His symphonies are often considered emblematic of the final stage of Austro-German Romanticism because of their rich harmonic language, complex polyphony, and considerable length. Bruckner's compositions helped to define contemporary musical radicalism, owing to their dissonances, unprepared modulations, and roving harmonies. Here are seven hymns for unaccompanied SATB choir. German text.
Songlist: Ave Maria, Ave Maria, Locus Iste, Os Justi, Virga Jesse, Vexilla Regis, Afferentur Regi

Ben Folds : University A Cappella
Review: The talented and creative singer-songwriter Ben Folds became enamored of collegiate a cappella after hearing some of the groups on YouTube. On this release he recorded some of his favorite campus a cappella groups as they each perform one of his songs and the result is a delight. The Spartones open the disc with a stella arrangement of "Not the Same" with the Leading Tones of Ohio University giving a solid rendition of "Brick". Ben Folds himself sings a cappella (with multi tracking) on "Boxing" and the fun "Effington". Mosaic Whispers sings "Still Fighting It" with conviction while the more jazz arrangement of "Selfless, Cold and Composed" helps show why Ben Folds songs are so much fun to arrange and perform unaccompanied. The University of Chicago's Voices in Your Head perform a very interesting arrangement of "Magic" and the Newtones soothing treatment of "Evaporate" surprises. Fifth Element is remarkable performing "Fair" and the closing "The Luckiest" wraps up the recording perfectly. This release certainly shows how talented today's collegiate a cappella groups have become and although a few individual voices may not always be pitch perfect the arrangements are almost all top notch and impressive. Recommended.
Songlist: Not the Same, Jesusland, Brick, You Don't Know Me, Still Fighting It, Boxing, Selfless, Cold and Composed, Magic, Landed, Time, Effington, Evaporated, Fred Jones Part 2, Army, Fair, The Luckiest

It is especially appropriate as an audience participation number and recessional.

text: The Men of Tom Jones is a terrific and actually rather extensive record and autobiographical account of an artist who has come to specialize in drawing men in various media, from pencil to paint and points in between. In his humble beginnings in the 1980's, drawing for Advocate Men, he chronicles the trajectory of a very interesting career, mixing it with some very cool links to his work at those various times. He's fairly well-known now, of course and his work will be recognized by many who read here. He is still drawing and painting and he produces great new work all the time, it pays to note. I suspect this site will keep us very updated on the man, his art and times. He is smart and talented, without doubt. The art he features is hugely erotic - read Red Fucking Hot - with great boners of throbbing heat, bouncing out in front of his models in delectable fashion, ready to eat or whatever. That he identifies is a definite given. The hard-ons we see in his art we can absolutely know materialize below his navel. Indeed, one of his hottest traits - to my mind - is that these are so fucking erotic, we get the sense he's hard when he draws. Good stuff, Tom!
