Wizard's Contract Won't Be Renewed
Last week a psychic gets sued, this week a wizard gets fired… not a good year for mystic peddlers, and right before Halloween!

The recent decision by the city council of Christchurch, New Zealand to drop Ian Brackenbury Channell from its payroll is reportedly getting attention for the controversy it's causing. Better known as the Wizard of Christchurch, Brackenbury Channell is a local personality, popular with tourists and residents, who's become a fixture at the city's Arts Centre, public events, and even political demonstrations. Instantly recognizable for his long beard, robe, pointed hat, and ornately carved stave, the Wizard's been getting payments from Christchurch for over twenty years as a kind of living work of art with promotional value for the city.
So far, the Wizard's reaction to the bad news hasn't involved any vengeful spells or sorcery—but he's had plenty to say about the decision. He'll continue to appear in public at his usual hangouts, he stated, despite falling out of favor with the "bureaucrats who have no imagination" who declined to renew his contract.
"They will have to kill me to stop me," Brackenbury Channell vowed.

Star Trek's William Shatner blasts into space on Blue Origin rocket
Hollywood
actor William Shatner has become the oldest person to go to space as he blasted
off aboard the Blue Origin sub-orbital capsule.
The 90-year-old, who played
Captain James T Kirk in the Star Trek films and TV series, took off from the
Texas desert with three other individuals.
Mr Shatner's trip on the
rocket system - developed by Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos - lasted about 10
minutes.
The craft safely landed
just after 10:00 local time (16:00 BST).
Those aboard got to
experience a short period of weightlessness as they climbed to a maximum
altitude just above 100km (60 miles). From there they were able to see the
curvature of the Earth through the capsule's big windows.
"Everybody in the
world needs to do this," the Canadian actor told Mr Bezos after landing
back on Earth. "It was unbelievable."
