New Zealand City’s ‘Official Wizard’ Was Taken Off Its Payroll Because Magic Is Dead

A New Zealand city seems to have left itself vulnerable to a revenge hex.

The city council of Christchurch announced that it will stop paying its official wizard $16,000 ($10,400 USD) a year in December, New Zealand news site Stuff reported.

Ian Brackenbury Channell (aka the Wizard) has been serving as the city’s appointed necromancer since the olden days of 1998. Over the past few decades he has made a total of $368,000 (roughly $258,825 USD) “to provide acts of wizardry and other wizard-like-services — as part of promotional work for the city of Christchurch.”

The production of molecular positronium

Circa 2007


When intense positron bursts are implanted into a thin film of porous silica, di-positronium (Ps2) is created on the internal pore surfaces, providing experimental proof of the existence of the molecule. Using a more intense positron source, it may be possible to form a Bose–Einstein condensate of Psf2 molecules, which would be of significant fundamental interest and a milestone on the path to produce an annihilation gamma-ray laser.
