In August, he defeated the South Island champion and was from then on regarded as the best wrestler in all of New Zealand. Also during that year, <mask> wrestled World Light Heavyweight Champion Walter Miller in the earliest-known outdoor wrestling match in New Zealand.The event, held by the Hawkes Bay Wrestling Association, attracted a crowd of 12,000 among whom included then Governor-General Sir Charles Furgusson. At the end of the season, <mask> suffered a serious shoulder injury in a title defence against M. A. Sunni. The match lasted for two hours before scoring the pinfall at around midnight. Although he retained the title, and won the £1400 purse, doctors prohibited him from wrestling for at least one month. On 16 March 1925, he defeated Sunni in two straight falls in Auckland to win the NWA New Zealand Heavyweight Championship, and a £750 purse, becoming the first champion officially recognised by the National Wrestling Alliance. Four months later, accompanied by former Scottish heavyweight champion and manager Alec Bain, <mask> travelled to Australia with Sunni and Japanese wrestler Koraeda where he defended the national heavyweight title in a rematch against the Walter Miller. A side wager was made for £500.In October 1925, he defeated Walter on points in a six-round contest in Hastings for the NWA Australasian Heavyweight Championship. That year, he was also on the first wrestling event ever held in Brisbane Stadium where <mask> defeated Peter Limutkin. He would successfully defend the national title against local and foreign wrestlers for over a year until his retirement in 1926. Prior to his retirement, he defeated Clarence Weber in a Best 2 out of 3 Falls match for the NWA Australasian Heavyweight Championship in Melbourne. Upon returning to Napier, he was apparently awarded a gold medal in recognition of his victory. <mask>

In the final months of his career, <mask> wrestled Polish-American wrestler Stanislaus Zbyszko at Auckland Town Hall on three occasions; over 1,000 people where turned away from the sold-out Town Hall during their bout on 22 June 1926.Although Zbyszko was billed as the World Heavyweight Champion, he had lost the title to Joe Stecher the previous year. According to one account by the New Zealand Railways Magazine, one of their matches lasted for several hours before ending in a time limit draw which had "gone on for many weary hours and when midnight Saturday chimed and Sunday commenced the match had to cease". Zbyszko later praised <mask>'s wrestling abilities claiming that few wrestlers could equal <mask> for strength and that "with proper training for two months or so, he would be a world-beater". Brief comeback and retirement
<mask> chose to compete in his home country, however, because there were so few local professionals active at the time it was difficult to earn a living and he decided to retire. The national title would remain vacant for three years until Tom Alley won the title shortly before of the founding of the Dominion Wrestling Union. He briefly came out of retirement to compete for the Wellington Wrestling Association in 1930, refereeing some preliminary amateur bouts at the Wellington Town Hall, and visiting American wrestler Ed "Strangler" Lewis expressed interest in wrestling <mask> for the NWA Australasian title. By 1932, <mask> was in full training in preparation for a comeback and, after a six-year absence, had his first return bout against Finnish wrestler Peter Limutkin at the Wellington Town Hall on 18 July 1932.Although he was awarded the victory, <mask>'s in-ring performance was considered disappointing. The Evening Post noted "Against Peter Limutkin he

 did not show anything which would give hope of his performing creditably against a visiting wrestler approaching his own weight. <mask> certainly won, but that was all, and the match can best be written down as just another effort on the part of the [Dominion] Wrestling Union to give a local man a chance to prove his worth". As the season went on, his later bouts were more favourably reviewed. His 21 July match against younger Māori wrestler Toa Kaha, for example, went to the full four rounds amazing the audience "at the endurance shown by both Native giants". On 16 September 1932, <mask>'s match against Abe Kaplin went to a time limit draw and was called by The Evening Post as "one of the best wrestling matches seen at Hastings". The following year he wrestled American wrestler Harry Mamos in Napier on 28 June 1933, which ended in a draw.Throughout the 1933 season, he challenged George Walker for the NWA New Zealand Heavyweight Championship and was considered a top contender for the title, along with Harry Mamos and Rumberg, by the end of the year. He and Billy Meeske were reportedly in line to challenge George Walker for the NWA British Empire/Commonwealth Championship during the summer of 1935. The 49-year-old <mask>, however, was now nearing middle age and in the midst of a changing business decided to retire. His nephew, Keita Meretana, also became a noted amateur and professional wrestler during the 1950s. Long after his retirement, wrestlers visiting from overseas would often stop by <mask>'s home to pay their respects. Over 40 years after his death, he was ranked No. 7 in a top ten list of New Zealand's greatest wrestlers by Fight Times Magazine in 2009.Later years

<mask> (; born 14 May 1962) is a Spanish chef. He was the head chef of the El Bulli restaurant in Roses on the Costa Brava and is considered one of the best chefs in the world. He has often collaborated with his brother, the renowned pastry chef <mask>. Career

<mask> began his culinary career in 1980 during his stint as a dishwasher at the Hotel Playafels, in the town of Castelldefels. The chef de cuisine at this hotel taught him traditional Spanish cuisine. At 19 he was drafted into military service where he worked as a cook. In 1984, at the age of 22, <mask> joined the kitchen staff of elBulli as a line cook.Eighteen months later he became the head chef. In 1994, <mask> <mask> and Juli Soler (his partner) sold 20% of their business to Miquel Horta (a Spanish millionaire and philanthropist and son of the founder of Nenuco) for 120 million pesetas. This event became a turning point for elBulli, the money was used to finance an expansion of the kitchen and the relationship with Horta opened the door to new clients, businessmen, and politicians who helped spread the word about the creative experimentation happening at the time in Cala Montjoi. Along with British chef Heston Blumenthal, <mask> is often associated with "molecular gastronomy", although like Blumenthal the Spanish chef does not consider his cuisine to be of this category. Instead, he has referred to his cooking as deconstructivist. He defines the term as 'Taking a dish that is well known and transforming all its ingredients, or part of them; then modifying the dish's texture, form and/or its temperature. Deconstructed, such a dish will preserve its essence... but its appearance will be radically different from the original's.'His stated goal is to "provide unexpected contrasts of flavour, temperature and texture. Nothing is what it seems. The idea is to provoke, surprise and delight the diner." elBulli was only open for about six months of the year, from mid-June to

 mid-December. <mask> spent the remaining six months of the year perfecting recipes in the workshop "elBulliTaller" in Barcelona. The restaurant closed on 30 July 2011. It reopened as a creativity center to foster innovation like his own and entirely new ideas in 2014.

elBulli had 3 Michelin stars and was one of the best restaurants in the world.It received first place in the Restaurant Top 50 in 2002. Then in 2005, it ranked second. It was again awarded the first place in 2006, and retained this title in 2007, 2008 and 2009, making a record 5 times in the top spot. In 2010, after elBulli announced it would close for good the next season, the title was awarded to Noma of Copenhagen, Denmark. Adrià is well known for creating "culinary foam." Adrià explored foams created without the addition of cream or egg white; foams are made of a flavoured liquid and an additive (such as lecithin), then aerated through a variety of methods, including whipping with an immersion blender or extrusion from a siphon bottle equipped with N2O cartridges. Further culinary processes (such as freeze-drying or freezing with liquid nitrogen) may be applied to foams as well.Using a single flavoured liquid allows the flavour of the final product to be less diluted and thus more intense. <mask> is the author of several cookbooks including A Day at El Bulli, El Bulli 2003–2004 and Cocinar en Casa (Cooking at Home). With his assistant Daniel Picard, <mask> has made almonds into cheese and asparagus into bread with the help of natural ingredients. In autumn 2010, <mask> and José Andrés taught a culinary physics course, "Science and Cooking" at Harvard University. In October 2010, <mask> announced an alliance with Telefónica. In March 2012 he announced a new project, LaBullipedia. In a later interview he described the project as "A Western haute cuisine Wikipedia at the service of information but also creativity".An art exhibition about <mask> and his restaurant,

documenta 12

In 2007, <mask> was invited to participate in documenta, "a sort of art world Olympics." <mask> felt like an intruder at the event, saying "artists all over battle all their lives to receive an invitation to display their work at documenta and now I, a cook, am asked to go along!" Organizer Roger Buergel told <mask> that he believed "that to create a new cooking technique was as complicated and challenging as painting a great picture. He said that he sees the work [Adrià] does as a new artistic discipline, that [Adrià's] work shows cuisine should be a new art form." With this notion in mind, Buergel invited him to partake in this prestigious international event held every five years in Kassel, Germany. <mask> decided to take a different approach to this event.With the approval of the documenta committee, he set up his pavilion (i.e. exhibition space) some 850 miles from Kassel in his own restaurant, El Bulli. He believed that in order to truly experience his craft one had to come into his controlled environment because what he does is "ephemeral, it’s not moveable, it can’t be in a museum" (it was also impractical to move all his equipment there). It was then agreed upon that every day, two names would be selected at random and those names would be the diners who would be able to see his ‘pavilion.’ The collection of these experiences were documented, along with photographs and interviews from an eclectic group of figures in the art world (including Massimo De Carlo, Bice Curiger, Anya Gallaccio, Massimiliano Gioni, Carsten Höller, Peter Kubelka, Antoni Miralda, Jerry Saltz, Adrian Searle, Vicente Todolí and Richard Hamilton), and were published in Food for Thought, Thought for Food. However, there was some

 controversy regarding <mask>'s participation in documenta, "some questioning the idea that cooking and art were co-extensive." Despite the fact that dishes from avant-garde cuisine are aesthetically pleasing (you eat first with your eyes), one of his colleagues, Chef Heston Blumenthal from the Fat Duck in Great Britain, "is uneasy about the idea that he might be an artist, although he does compare restaurant going to a trip to the theater, the cinema or an art gallery." <mask> himself has compared a dinner at his restaurant to a night out at the theater.When people discuss a meal there, they usually talk about the rhythm and flow of the dishes, and that the movements of the waiters and sommeliers are amazingly choreographed. He said he has "turned eating into an experience that supersedes eating." Controversy
<mask> denounced his fellow 3-star Michelin cook Santi Santamaria who described his approach to cuisine as "pretentious". Traditionalist Santi Santamaria attacked <mask>'s dishes in elBulli as unhealthy, alleging that "<mask>'s dishes are designed to impress rather than satisfy and used chemicals that actually put diners' health at risk". Top chefs, however, accused Santamaria, who ran the 3-star Can Fabes also in Catalonia, of envy and "endangering the reputations of Spanish kitchens". The criticism has split top Spanish chefs into pro- and anti-Adrià camps. German food writer Jörg Zipprick accused <mask> of more or less poisoning his customers with the additives he uses in his cuisine and said that <mask>'s menu should carry health warnings: "These colorants, gelling agents, emulsifiers, acidifiers and taste enhancers that <mask> has introduced massively into his dishes to obtain extraordinary textures, tastes and sensations do not have a neutral impact on health."Domestic commercialisation

<mask>, commonly known as Wuta <mask>, is a Congolese rumba and soukous vocalist and composer from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). From 1974 to 1982, he was a member of the band TPOK Jazz, led by  Franco (François Luambo Makiadi), which dominated the Congolese music scene from the 1960s through the 1980s. Since leaving TPOK Jazz he has recorded and performed as a solo artist, in addition to being one of the four members of the "supergroup" Les Quatre Etoiles (The Four Stars), and subsequently a member of Kékélé. Background
<mask> was born on 9 August 1949 at Leopold General Hospital in then Leopoldville, now Kinshasa, the capital of, and largest city in, what was then the Belgian Congo, was later (among other names) Zaire, and is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This singer has been known by a variety of names; one source notes that "<mask>i is also known as <mask>, <mask>, <mask>la and Blaise Pasco." He was given the name Gaspard soon after birth. Later as a child, the name "Pascal" was added, after his maternal grandfather Pascal Gaspard Mayandi.During 1967-68, while he was with Orchestre Jamel National, a member of his family who had studied in Europe nicknamed him "Blaise" to make him "Blaise Pascal," and from then on he was known as "Blaise-Pasco." Around 1974, at about the time he joined TPOK Jazz, under Zaire's  "authenticité" campaign under  President Mobutu, he changed his name to the more "authentic" Congolese name Wata Undula Mayanda (or Wuta Mayandi Yundula), known as Wuta <mask>. In any event, he has recorded and performed since the 1970s under the name Wuta <mask>, although sometimes that name is hyphenated and some of his solo album covers spell it as "Wuta May." He went to school in Kinshasa, studying at

In 1967, at the age of 18, while still a student, he joined the band Orchestre Jamel National, previously known as Jamel Jazz, based in the commune of Dendal. He became friends with another vocalist in the band, Aime Kiwakana, born Emmanuel Kiala, who would later join TPOK Jazz. Other musicians who made their start at Jamel included saxophonist Empompo Loway (also later with TPOK Jazz), guitarists Bavon "Marie-Marie" (the only brother of Franco Luambo), Makosso, and Dave Makondele, and vocalists Djo Mpoyi (later with TPOK Jazz), Marcel "Djeskain" Loko, Bumba Massa, and Jean-Papy Ramazani (the latter three of whom would join Wuta Mayi in Kékélé, decades later).Musical career

Early professional career (1968-1974)
<mask> <mask> began his professional career in 1968, joining the band Orchestre Bamboula as a vocalist. The band was created in November of that year by guitarist Papa Noel (Antoine or Anthony Nedule). Another member was guitarist Paul Mansiamina Mfoko, or Bopol. Bopol was the same age as <mask> <mask>, having been born in Leopoldville on July 26, 1949, and both were then beginning their professional musical careers after high school. This was the start of a decades-long collaborative musical relationship between the two. Other band members included other vocalists Aime Kiwakana, Pires, and Tino Mwinkwa, Jeff Lunam on saxophone, and Mangenza on drums, as well as  Madilu System, Pepe Kalle and Bozi Boziana. Orchestre Bamboula made its official debut in February 1969 in the town of Limete.That same year, Orchestre

 Bamboula was chosen, by winning a competition among the country's top bands, to represent the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the first Pan-African Festival of Culture in Algiers, Algeria. The band known as Bantous de la Capitale represented the Republic of the Congo (Congo-Brazzaville). Orchestre Bamboula broke up, however, shortly after its return from Algiers. He was later a member of several other bands, including Rock'a Mambo and Orchestre Continentale. He formed the latter band in 1971 with Bopol and Tino Mwinkwa from Bamboula, as well as other musicians including Josky Kiambukuta and "Serpent" Kabamba. With TPOK Jazz (1974-1982)
In 1974, <mask> <mask> left Orcheste Continental to join TPOK Jazz, after an invitation relayed through Josky Kiambukuta. <mask> Mayi played with TPOK Jazz until 1982, leaving before Franco's death in 1989.Other vocalists in TPOK Jazz at that time included Josky Kiambukuta, Michel Boyibanda, Youlou Mabiala, Ndombe Opetum and Aime Kiwakana. <mask> <mask> (1975), Basala la vie (1978), Ayant Droit (1980), Moleka, Beyou (1980), and Tuti (1981).

In 1982, <mask> <mask> needed to come to Paris for medical treatment. He decided to stay there after three friends from Kinshasa who had moved to Paris, Bopol, Nyboma, and Syran Mbenza, invited him to record with them. In 1982 they recorded, 4 Grandes Vedettes de la Musique Africaine, which was issued in 1983 and would later be seen as the first record of the group they formed, Les Quatre Etoiles (the Four Stars). Between then and 1993, in addition to recording and performing with Les Quatre Etoiles, he released six solo albums, as well as one credited to him and Congolese guitarist Dino Vangu

 (listed as "Dino Vangou"). He also contributed to many other records.In the mid 1990s, with Papa Noel, Bopol and others, he formed the band Odemba. However the band failed to fully launch due to lack of funds. In the early 2000s, <mask> <mask>, Nyboma, Syran Mbenza, Djeskain Loko Massengo, Sammy Bumba Massa, Papa Noel, and Jean-Papy Ramazani formed a band called Kékélé that toured extensively in Europe and North America. Kékélé means "vines that are used in villages in Africa to make connections". The band plays entirely using acoustic guitars, drums and percussions. In 2019, more than 25 years after his previous solo release and more than 50 years after beginning his professional musical career, <mask> Mayi issued a new solo album, La Face Cachee, which received positive reviews.

<mask> (born 15 August 1967) is an English former lobbyist. As a political advisor he was involved in two political scandals, "Lobbygate" in 1998, and again in 2009 while <mask> was editor of the LabourList website. He has worked as a psychotherapist. He is the author of two books, Blair's 100 Days and Life Support. <mask> has had an unusually serious case of long COVID; he was hospitalised in March 2020, suffering from COVID-19, and remained in hospital for a year. Six months after returning to his home, he remains seriously incapacitated as of October 2021. Career
Born in Chorley, Lancashire, <mask> was educated at Southlands High School until 1984.He later attended Runshaw College in Leyland and the University of Manchester. While at the university, <mask> provided hospitality for Ken Livingstone, who had missed his train after a Labour Club meeting. Livingstone was reportedly astonished to find displayed in <mask>'s student room a large poster of Labour Party deputy leader, Roy Hattersley. At around this time, he first met Charlotte Raven, with whom he was later involved romantically. <mask> began his political career in 1990, when he became the constituency secretary for Nick Brown. In 1992, he left this job and went to work as a researcher for the MP for Hartlepool, Peter Mandelson. In 1996, he became a director of a lobbying firm called GPC Market Access, and was employed by them until early 1999.While working at GPC Market Access, he set up the New Labour organisation Progress with Liam Byrne.

 Jonathan Mendelsohn, boasting to Greg Palast – an undercover reporter from The Observer posing as a businessman – about how they could sell access to government ministers and create tax breaks for their clients. When the press got hold of the story, they dubbed it "Lobbygate". On the recording, <mask> said that "there are 17 people who count in this government ... [to] say I am intimate with every one of them is the understatement of the century." Palast also wrote that <mask> said, regarding his motivation: "I just want to stuff my bank account at 250 pounds an hour". According to Palast, "<mask> was nothing more than a messenger boy, a factotum, a purveyor, a self-loving, over-scented clerk".Although he denied the allegations and accused The Observer of attempting to entrap him, he was widely ridiculed in the aftermath. Palast later stated that the subsequent media coverage got his original story wrong, and that it was not primarily about boastful lobbyists: "the real story was about Tony Blair and his inner circle". Following his involvement in the "Lobbygate" scandal, <mask> was sacked from his job at the Daily Express and generally shunned by Labour insiders. His friend Peter Mandelson said that <mask> "[h]as a fine intelligence, but sometimes I am afraid he misuses that intelligence. He gets above himself. But now he has been cut down to size and I think probably he will learn a very hard lesson from what has happened." After politics
After leaving politics, <mask> retrained as a psychotherapist, obtaining an MA in clinical psychology after what he described as "three years in Berkeley, California".While in Berkeley, he worked as "the development director of a community counselling centre"; later, he claimed to have entered "private practice in Marylebone,

He subsequently clarified that he in fact studied at the Wright Institute of California, a graduate school in the town of Berkeley founded by Nevitt Sanford. <mask> responded to the controversy surrounding his claimed psychotherapy degree, by denying the allegations completely and saying that this was "a brazen attempt to smear me by Guido Fawkes and David Hencke".

He explained that he started the website in response to the increasing role that the internet was playing in British politics and so that Labourites would have their own place in the blogosphere.Contributors to his website included David Lammy, Peter Mandelson, James Purnell and Piers Morgan. Although LabourList was generally supportive of the Labour Party, it claimed to publish articles and views critical of the Labour government. , the website is still active. On 11 April 2009, it was reported by The Daily Telegraph that Gordon Brown's special adviser, Damian McBride, had sent a series of emails to <mask> discussing plans to set up a blog which would be used to post false rumours about the private lives of senior or prominent members of the Conservative Party and their spouses.

After key members of the All Blacks, including the likes of <mask> and Captain Kieran Read, missed the test against Japan, Perenara was named on the bench prior to the 10 November test against England. Perenara performed poorly against England and could potentially have cost New Zealand a win, with England replacement forward, Courtney Lawes, charging down a box-kick from Perenara to set Sam Underhill up, for what could have been England's winning try. The try was not given to England by the referee however, as Lawes was deemed to be offside. New Zealand narrowly won against England, 16-15. <mask> was subsequently benched for the 17 November loss to Ireland, which was a 9-16 against New Zealand. After the big games against England and Ireland, Perenara finished the season off with a start against Italy.He scored the opening try against Italy off a pass from winger, Jordie Barrett, before being replaced by Te Toiroa Tahuriorangi, in the 51st minute of the test, which ended the season in a 66-3 victory. 2019

His side won that game 35-28, but it would see the Hurricanes face the Crusaders in the Super Rugby semifinals.

After the match, Johansen said: "I haven’t seen through too many of the clips yet but to get the start with the first save down to my left was good. When you haven’t played in a long time regularly, you can be a bit edgy because obviously you want to go out and impress. Sometimes that leads to you chasing the game which can lead to bad decisions and mistakes. That save settled me down early into the game and then it was good. On a personal note, it was a pretty decent game for me."

<mask> (April 22, 1920 – February 7, 1954)  was an American jazz musician who is best known for composing the music for fifteen Christmas carols between 1942 and 1954. Only one of the carols was performed in public outside his immediate family circle during his lifetime. Early life
<mask> was born in Marquette, Michigan. His family moved to Pontiac, Michigan when he was two after his father, Bates G<mask> (1878–1948), became rector of All Saints Pontiac, an Episcopal church in Pontiac. At the age of 10, having shown an early interest in music, <mask> received his first musical instrument, a cornet, as a present from his parents. Though he would learn to play several other instruments, including the piano, <mask> spent most of his life playing cornet and trumpet in bands and orchestras, with a special interest in jazz. <mask> studied music at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, with an emphasis on Music Theory.He graduated as an outstanding music theory student with a Bachelor of Music degree in 1942. A tradition that the elder <mask> had begun prior to moving to Pontiac in 1922, was the creation of a Christmas card, which he sent to family members and parishioners. On these cards were original Christmas carols, with both the words and music by the Reverend <mask>. After <mask> graduated from college, his father asked him to take over as composer and write the music for the family Christmas card in 1942, "Christmas Cometh Caroling". From then on, <mask> would write the music for the family's Christmas cards. World War II and aftermath
During World War II, <mask> served as an officer in the United States Army, stationed at San Angelo, Texas. While there, he served with the Army Air Force Band and filled in with the Houston Symphony as a trumpeter.His father sent him the lyrics for the carols from Michigan, first in 1943 ("Jesu Parvule") and then in 1944 ("What Are The

 Signs"). <mask> completed the music from his base. <mask> married his childhood sweetheart, Anne Shortt (August 14, 1922 – November 30, 2000), on October 13, 1945. Finally earning his discharge in early 1946, he formed a short-lived band; after the group disbanded, he and Anne returned to Michigan to spend time with his father. The 1947 Christmas card, "Nigh Bethlehem," was the last collaboration between <mask> and <mask>. <mask> died of a heart attack early in 1948. <mask> and his wife chose to continue the family Christmas card tradition in his honor.<mask> resumed his career in New York as a musician and arranger/composer. He also worked as a teacher at The American Theatre Wing professional school, where he collaborated with Helen Hobbs Jordan (April 6, 1907 – April 26, 2006) on a sight-reading book. Professional life
<mask> joined the Alvino Rey Orchestra in 1949. Meanwhile, Anne remained in Michigan, where the Burts' only child, Diane Bates <mask>, was born on March 8, 1950. While she was pregnant, Anne, in consultation with <mask>, asked an old family friend, Wihla Hutson (1901–2002), the organist at Rev. <mask>'s church, to write the lyrics for the annual Christmas card, which <mask> then would set to music. This carol, entitled "Sleep, Baby Mine" (or "Carol of the Mother") was a lullaby for their unborn child.In the spring of 1950, <mask>, Anne and six-week-old Diane moved to Los Angeles, California. <mask> continued his professional career as an arranger and musician for bands such as Hal Richards, Horace Heidt and Alvino Rey. Over the next several years and, as the <mask>s' circle of friends grew, the Christmas card list grew from 50 to 450 people. But still, the Alfred Burt Carols remained unknown outside the <mask>s' growing mailing list. That changed with the 1952 carol, "Come, Dear Children". <mask> finished writing the music during a rehearsal with the Blue

 Reys, the vocal group with Alvino Rey's orchestra. He asked them to sing it so he could make sure the harmonies worked; they liked it so much that they asked <mask> if they could sing it at The King Sisters annual Christmas party.It proved to be a hit among the party guests, and served to introduce <mask>'s carols to Hollywood. The <mask> collaboration continued until <mask>'s death in 1954. Illness and death
Through the early part of 1953, <mask> complained of a persistent virus and fatigue. Eventually agreeing to a thorough medical examination, he was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. He spent his final months at home in Pacoima, California. James Conkling, husband of Donna King Conkling, and at that time the president of Columbia Records, was informed of <mask>'s failing health and organized the project, assembling an all-star choir of Hollywood singers to perform <mask>'s four-part harmonies. Recording sessions for the older carols took place in late 1953 in the North Hollywood LDS Church with <mask> present to conduct from his wheelchair.Meanwhile, to fill the album, <mask> was assigned four new carols. One of them, "O Hearken Ye", was sent as the 1953 family Christmas card. For the first time, <mask> knew his carols were going to be recorded. <mask> finished the last of his carols, "The Star Carol", on February 5, 1954. Less than two days later, he died. "The Star Carol" would be used on the final <mask> family Christmas card that holiday season. The artwork and printing of the card was donated by Columbia Records with a staff photographer providing the photo of the little girl looking at a Christmas ornament.Many thought it was Al's daughter, <mask>. First recordings of the carols

Twelve of <mask>'s carols were released in time for the holiday season of 1954 on a 10-inch vinyl album called The Christmas Mood (Columbia CL 6336). The album was credited to "The

texts: Columbia Choir", conducted by Bud Linn and produced by "Edwin L. (Buddy) Cole", as the LP jacket credits him, who was at that time the husband of Yvonne King Cole. "The Christmas Mood" was recorded by The Columbia Choir under the direction of Grafton (Bud) Linn at St. Michael and All Angels Episcopal church, on Coldwater Canyon Ave. in Studio City, California, of which <mask> was assistant choir director and both he and his wife, Anne, were members. The album remained in print for several Christmas seasons. In 1955, the original 10-inch LP was reissued with a new catalog number (CL 2546) as part of Columbia's short-lived "House Party Series", which was designed to keep the 10-inch album alive, even as most labels released most of their new LPs on 12-inch discs. In 1957, the album was reissued once again, this time on a 12-inch LP as CL 1051, including an instrumental brass ensemble, a medley of the carols arranged and conducted by Ralph Carmichael.The original Columbia Choir album did not include "Christmas Cometh Caroling", "What Are the Signs", and "Sleep Baby Mine", also titled "The Carol of the Mother". Capitol Records artists Tennessee Ernie Ford, Fred Waring and His Pennsylvanians and Nat King Cole recorded <mask>'s carols. In 1958, Ford recorded "The Star Carol" for his first full-length album of Christmas music and named the entire album of songs after it. The Star Carol (Capitol T/ST 1071) peaked at Billboard #4 in the Christmas season of 1958–59 and reappeared on either the main LP charts or the special Christmas charts for a decade thereafter. In 1959, Waring recorded the Christmas LP The Sounds of Christmas (Capitol T/ST 1260), and six of the Alfred Burt Carols appeared on it: "Caroling, Caroling", "O Hearken Ye", "Jesu Parvule", "The Star Carol", "Come Dear Children", and "This Is Christmas" (the latter also known under the name "Bright, Bright the Holly

 Berries"). Finally, Cole recorded "Caroling, Caroling" on his 1960 album The Magic of Christmas (Capitol W/SW 1444), which was reissued under the title The Christmas Song in 1963 and has remained in print ever since. Simon and Garfunkel recorded "The Star Carol" in 1967, which was released on the LP A Very Merry Christmas.The first recording of all 15 of The Alfred Burt Carols was released in 1964 by the Voices of Jimmy Joyce called This Is Christmas: A Complete Collection of the Alfred S. Burt Carols (Warner Bros. W/WS 1566). The recording was produced by Anne S<mask>, <mask>'s wife, and James Conkling, president of Warner Bros. Records. The recording engineer was Lowell Frank. The unusual 8-part vocal harmony arrangements were written by <mask>'s lifelong friend, Brinley Bethel. The tracks were recorded during a 3-day session in Hollywood on September 9, 10 & 11 of 1963. The recording was nominated for a Grammy in 1964 in the category of Best Pop Instrumental Performance. In 1964, there was no category for a cappella vocal music, thus the work was placed in the instrumental category.It lost to Henry Mancini's "Pink Panther" theme. Legacy
"Caroling, Caroling" and "Some Children See Him" are the most recorded carols written by <mask><mask>. Other recordings of The Alfred Burt Carols include Simon and Garfunkel's 1967 recording of "The Star Carol", Andy Williams and Kenny Loggins' versions of "Some Children See Him", George Winston's 1982 rendition of "Some Children See Him", James Taylor's 2004 recording of "Some Children See Him", and David Archuleta's 2018 version of "Some Children See Him". The Singers Unlimited recorded six of the Alfred Burt Carols on their 1972 album, "Christmas". Gas House Gang also has recorded Burt carols in their 2000 CD "Some Children See Him".

<mask>-Helou (6 June 1906 – 25 June 1959) or Farjallah Helou (in Arabic فرج الله الحلو) was a Lebanese communist militant, a popular Lebanese political figure and head of the Lebanese Communist Party. Early life
<mask>-Helou  was born to Estephane el-Helou in Hosrayel, Mount Lebanon in a conservative Maronite family. He studied at a public school in Byblos, then in Amsheet and Notre Dame de Mayfouq. His mother and part of his siblings left Lebanon, <mask> stayed with his father Estephane and who opted to stay and his siblings Mariana, older sister and Ghaleb his brother. He later traveled to Syria where he was a teacher in Arabic language and literature the National Evangelical College in Homs and also continued his studies in literature in Syria where he got exposed to Marxist ideology. At the end of the 1920s, he returned to Lebanon and alongside Fu'ad al-Shimali, Yusuf Yazbek and Artin Madoyan, a founding member of the Syrian–Lebanese Communist Party and the party's first secretary. He married Virginie el-Helou, a communist party sympathizer and had three daughters, Bushra, Najwa and Nada.Politics

In 1934, el-Helou travelled to the USSR including a tour of the Asian Soviet Socialist Republics and wrote the book A New Humanity Building a New World (In Arabic انسانية جديدة تبني عالما جديدا). In 1935, he became part of the Syrian–Lebanese Communist Party later renamed Lebanese Communist Party (LCP) and Syrian Communist Party. El-Helou became a member of its Central Committee and actively took part in demonstrations against the French Mandate of Lebanon and Syria and for independence of Lebanon. He was arrested briefly in Syria and deported to Lebanon. In 1937 he was named secretary of the Central Committee of the party headed by Khaled Bakdash. He unsuccessfully led an electoral campaign to be elected as a member of the Lebanese

 Parliament from Mount Lebanon. He also supervised the publication of the Lebanese Communist organ Voice of the People (in Arabic صوت الشعب).In 1939, he was arrested again, this time by the French Mandate and put to trial and convicted for 5 year imprisonment. He spent 22 months in prison alongside party leader Nicolas al-Shawi before release in 1941. He headed the party in 1946 as Secretary General, a post that was hastily transferred to Nicolas el-Shawi as he traveled to Paris and London to study Marxism. He was further alienated from the party after his criticism of the USSR for approving the 1947 resolutions in United Nations Partition Plan for Palestine that led to the establishment of Israel in 1948. But he remained a staunch communist and member of the party although he was chastised for his views on USSR. During the Soviet Stalinist hegemony on the Lebanese Communist Party, he was blamed for criticizing the Soviet Union and after a big rift with the pro-Stalinist wing represented by Khalid Bakdash, was forced to write his own "confessions" and "admitting of mistakes" in a document known as "Risalat Salem" (رسالة سالم) in a bid to remain in the party. In the 1950s, his party actively opposed the rule of President Camille Chamoun in what was known as the 1958 uprising.Death
After the Khalid Bakdash communist leadership in Syria was decimated with the Syrian wing of the Communist Party opposing the establishment of United Arab Republic and the union of Egypt and Syria under a Nasserite regime, Bakdash lived in exile in Prague, as many other Syrian Communists found refuge in Lebanon. The Syrian communists drafted a plan of action and <mask> El-Helou was, upon the insistence of Bakdash, sent to Syria to take care of situation of the Syrian communists. After visiting Syria, el-Helou returned to Lebanon in May 1959 presenting a long

 report to the party Central Committee about the situation. But with the insistence of the exiled and autocratic communist leader Bakdash, on 18 June 1959, <mask> el-Helou went on his second secret mission to Syria in a year. He was duly arrested after five days of his clandestine mission by the secret services of the United Arab Republic led by Abdel Hamid al-Sarraj and its Lebanese Affairs bureau led by Burhan Adham on 25 June after a defecting Syrian communist operative now working with the new pro-Nasser regime led the secret agents to his hideout in Damascus. He was repeatedly investigated by the Deuxième Bureau for naming other Syrian communists and sympathizers opposed to the union which he vehemently refused. He was reportedly killed under torture the same day or the following one or two days.The actual date of death is still a mystery. His body was first buried in a secret location, and fearing exposure of the crime, later his body was reportedly burned in a pool of sulfuric acid and his remains disposed of in the Barada river. Details of his torture, murder and disposal were made public by Al Akhbar, the official organ of the Syrian communists after the dissolution of the Egyptian Syrian union. Legacy
<mask> el-Helou is widely considered as one of the martyrs of Arab communism. Many poems and songs are dedicated to him including one by the Egyptian poet and stage writer Naguib Srour. In 1971 Soviet artist Lev Alexandrovich Russov sculpted a statue of martyr <mask> el-Helou. The commemorative statue was bombed a few years later reportedly by the invading Syrian Army in retaliation after the leftist Lebanese National Movement made up of Arab nationalists, socialists and communists led by Kamal Jumblatt opposed the invasion.Also in 1971, the critically acclaimed comedy/tragedy theatre piece written by Issam Mahfouz was presented on

Kennedy and Zaim being the honorific title of Antoun Saadeh, the founder of the Syrian Social Nationalist Party. The piece was adapted and staged a second time in 2015 in the Gulbenkian Theatre in Lebanese American University directed this time by Lena Khoury. In 1974, Dar al Farabi publishing house launched the book كتابات مختارة لفرج الله الحلو being excerpts from el-Helou's various writings. After a decision of the Lebanese Communist Party, following the 2005 Cedar Revolution and withdrawal of Syria from Lebanon, Lev Alexandrovich Russov's blown commemorative statue was restored back and its official reopening was made on 19 September 2005, with thousands of sympathizers attending the event in Hosrayel, Farjallah el-Helou's birthplace. In 2009, author Karim Mroueh published through Dar al Saqi the biographical book The Four Great Communists in the Modern History of Lebanon: Fu'ad al-Shimali, <mask> el-Helou, Nicolas el-Shawi, George Hawi. In 2013, the Lebanese communist radio station Voice of the People (صوت الشعب) broadcast a series of programmes about Farajallah el-Helou under the title Farajallah el-Helou: Combatant and Martyr (فرج الله الحلو: مناضلا وشهيدا). Hanna Gharib, the newly elected general secretary of the Lebanese Communist Party visited the house and the statue of Farajallah el-Helou in Hosrayel in June 2016, few months after his election and delivered a speech honoring the historical leader and martyr of the party.See also
