# Hal Kant

Harold Sanford "Hal" Kant (July 29, 1931 – October 19, 2008) was an entertainment industry attorney who specialized in representing musical groups. He was best known for his 35 years as principal lawyer and general counsel for the Grateful Dead, a position in the group that was so strong that his business cards with the band identified his role as "Czar".

## Early life

Hal Kant was born in the Bronx. He earned his law degree at the Harvard Law School. After graduation, he was hired as a clerk in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in San Francisco, California.

## Music business

After starting to practice law on his own, he came to the realization that "the only attorneys in the music business were the attorneys for the record companies, and their job was to get as much money as they could for their company and leave as little as possible for the artists". Kant decided that "the other guys should have an attorney, too" and proceeded to help represent a series of artists including The Association, Captain Beefheart, Hot Tuna, Janis Joplin, New Riders of the Purple Sage, Sonny & Cher and Stevie Ray Vaughan. He turned down an opportunity to represent The Doors after the group demanded that he only represent them.

### Grateful Dead

Kant became best known for his representation of the Grateful Dead, bringing the band millions of dollars in revenue, through his management of the band's intellectual property and merchandising rights. At Kant's recommendation, the group was one of the few rock 'n roll pioneers to retain ownership of their music masters and publishing rights. Kant's role with the band was so significant that his business cards with the band identified himself as "Czar".
Kant had plans to donate his legal business records to a proposed Grateful Dead museum to be built in San Francisco. This venture didn't come into fruition so that his experience in the historical development of contracts and business practices could be used as a resource by visitors.

## Poker

Kant won the $2,500 Pot Limit Omaha tournament at the 1987 World Series of Poker, earning a gold WSOP bracelet and $174,000. He was the runner-up in the $2,500 Limit Hold'em tournament at the 1990 World Series of Poker. Kant would often have members of the Grateful Dead cheering for him at poker tournaments.
During his poker career, Kant had total live tournament winnings exceeding $1,100,000. His 12 cashes as the WSOP account for $524,514 of those winnings.

## Death

He died at age 77 in Reno, Nevada on October 19, 2008, from pancreatic cancer. He was survived by his wife, Jesse, and his three sons, two stepchildren and five grandchildren.
# Hal Hilpirt

He played one more season with the Reds, retiring from professional football in 1933.

## Coaching career

In 1945, Hilpirt was responsible for the organization of the Junior America Legion Baseball Association in Jackson County, Oklahoma coaching championship teams in 1945, 1948 & 1951. He also coached at Capitol, Foster, Altus and Snider High Schools in Oklahoma before moving to Irving, Texas.

# Charity Children Choirs

Choirs of Charity Children became a feature of London parish church music in the 18th century. From 1704 to 1877 they combined for an annual benefit concert and the impression of massed voices numbering in the thousands was remarked on by visitors including William Blake, Joseph Haydn and Hector Berlioz.

## History

Organ-led congregational singing and choirs attached to orphanages and charity schools distinguished church music in the capital from the West gallery music of other towns. The various choirs were brought together (by the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge?) for a festival at St Andrew's Church, Holborn in 1704 and annually at St Sepulchre-without-Newgate, moving to Christ Church, Newgate Street after 1738. They sang on other occasions as well, and at the celebrations of the Peace of Utrecht already numbered "Four thousand children from London charity schools [who] were ‘placed upon a machine in the Strand’ and throughout the event they sang ‘hymns of . . . praise to God, for her Majesty’ and the gift of peace."
John Wesley collected numerous hymns; one entitled "Yearly Hymn for Charity Children" begins:
   Again the kind revolving Year
   Has brought this happy Day,
   And we in God's bless'd House appear
   Again our Vows to pay.
   Our watchful Gard[ia]ns, rob'd in Light, Adore the Heavenly King;
   Ten thousand thousand Seraphs bright
   Incessant Praises sing.
From 1782 the annual festival took place beneath the dome of St. Paul's Cathedral. Sir Gilbert Elliot described the National Thanksgiving for George III's recovery 23 April 1789 in a letter:
   …the drums stopped, and the organ began; and when the King approached the centre all the 6,000 children set up their little voices and sang part of
   the Hundredth Psalm. This was the moment that I found most affecting; and without knowing exactly why, I found my eyes running over, and the bone in my throat, which was the case with many other people.
   1789 letter of Sir Gilbert Elliot
Haydn attended the service on 9 June 1791:
   8 Tage vr. Pfingsten hörte ich in St Pauls-Kürch 4000 spittall Kinder nachstehendes lied singen, ein Performer gab den Tact dazu, keine Music rührte mich zeit lebens so heftig als diese andachts volle und unschuldige [ Anglican chant example] NB: alle Kinder sind neu gekleidet und ziehen processionaliter dahin, der organist spilt ganz artig und einfach die Melodie vor, alsdan fiengen alle zugleich an zu singen.
   A week before Whitsun I heard 4000 charity children sing the following hymn in St Paul's church; a "Performer" gave the beat. In my lifetime no music has so powerfully moved me as this reverent and innocent one did: [No. 26 from John Jones' Sixty Chants Single and Double (1785)] The children are all dressed in new clothes and enter in procession; the organist plays the tune nicely and simply and then all begin together in singing.
Haydn's biographer Albert Christoph Dies reports that after reading him this account from his pocket notebook, Haydn added "I stood there and wept like a child."
# Charity Creek

Charity Creek, a northern tributary of the Parramatta River, is a creek west of Sydney Harbour, located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It joins the Parramatta River at Meadowbank Park, Meadowbank.

## Ecology

The source of the creek is in the suburb of West Ryde. The Charity Creek catchment area is 237 hectares (590 acres).
The catchment is bounded by Victoria Road, Devlin Street, Blaxland Road, Marlow Avenue and the Main Northern railway line. The catchment boundary crosses the railway line just south of West Ryde railway station. The catchment is predominantly residential with some commercial development in the vicinity of Rhodes Street and Herbert Street. Most of the drainage system in the Charity Creek catchment consists of concrete pipes or boxed culverts. The creek is culverted down to Meadowbank Boys High School. Below this is a short reach of natural open channel to the railway line. Downstream of the railway line the creek is a concrete lined channel. All the tributaries of Charity Creek are piped.
Charity Creek Cascades, named after the creek, is an interconnected series of council parks running from Top Ryde to West Ryde railway station. The area covers approximately 0.48 hectares (1.2 acres), and stretches from Shepherd Street to Linton Lane.

## History

Charity Point, near Charity Creek, is attributed to William Bennet, an early settler who was both a farmer and South Sea trader. When his ships need repairing, a large number of south-sea islander crew camped on the shore. His kind treatment to them earned the names Charity Creek and Charity Headland.
Dinner Point, now called Charity Point, at the Meadowbank Memorial Park, is said to have acquired its name on 15 February 1788. First Lieutenant William Bradley wrote:
   At 1pm returned to the Boats and after dinner went in the smallest boat over the flats past a mangrove island.
Bradley then followed a creek so narrow that boat oars stuck their struck the sides until they were stopped by fallen trees. Charity Point, once backed by a creek which has been filled in, was originally named Mur-ray-mah, perhaps meaning 'black bream', heard by the linguist Lieutenant William Dawes as karóoma (garuma). Charity Point was also a popular fishing spot. Kent, a nephew of Governor John Hunter, was first granted 170 acres (69 ha) on 12 May 1796. He received a further grant in 1803, when his nephew William Kent Jnr obtained 570 acres (230 ha) in the district of Eastern Farms. It was after the 1840s that the former orchards and farms of the Ryde area began to be subdivided and Charity Creek was filled in.
# Magnetic topology

In plasma physics, the magnetic topology of a plasma is the structure and linkage of its magnetic field.
The magnetic topology of a plasma can be changed through magnetic diffusion and reconnection. In the limit of a large magnetic Reynolds number, however, diffusion and reconnection of the magnetic field cannot occur, and the magnetic topology is preserved.
# Maharashtra Mandal

A Maharashtra Mandal is a social group formed to preserve the culture of those born in the Indian state of Maharashtra, and speakers of its language, Marathi, who live outside the state. Such groups exist in India and throughout the world, examples being in Helsinki, Brussels, Houston and Dar es Salaam. The Mandal was founded in 1924 by Shivrampant Damle.

# Elizabeth Ayer

Elizabeth Ayer (October 13, 1897 – August 4, 1987) is recognized as a pioneering architect in Seattle, Washington, whose professional activities stretched over more than five decades. She was the first woman to graduate from the professional architecture program at the University of Washington and was the first woman to be registered as an architect in Washington State.
Ayer was born in Thurston County, Washington, in October 1897. She enrolled at the University of Washington in 1916, graduating in 1921 with her B.Arch. degree. In 1919, while still a student, she was hired by Andrew Willatsen. The next year she began her long association with Seattle architect Edwin Ivey. From 1922 to 1923, she worked in New York City, but after a year returned to Seattle, again working with Ivey.
By the late 1920s, Ayer was identified as Ivey's "Associate." During the 1920s and 1930s, Ayer played key roles in design and supervision of the Ivey's residential commissions. About 1930, Ayer became registered as an architect in Washington State.
In 1940, Ivey was killed in an automobile accident. Ayer took over the firm and with another employee, Rolland Lamping, continued the practice. In 1942, they suspended the practice—for the duration of World War II Ayer worked as an architect in the U.S. Engineers Office. She restarted the practice after 1945. Some time during the 1950s, the firm name was changed to Ayer & Lamping.
Ayer retired in 1970, after a 50-year professional career. She moved to Lacey, Washington, where she served on the Planning Commission through 1980. She died in Lacey in 1987.
