Instead, this magic comes from within a character and needs some refining to be used properly-or potently. While similar to magic from learning, gaining magic from training doesn’t necessarily involve hitting the books. And if magic can be taught, a villain might offer this corrupted power to a “good” character. They’ve already learned enough to put them above most characters, and forbidden magic might even be a part of their repertoire of spells. The villain doesn’t need to learn - As with most stories, the villain is initially more powerful than the heroes. Specialize your characters - By specializing your characters or making them more talented in different schools, you can create a more exciting and varied cast that compliment or impede one another. Your characters will likely be inexperienced or brand-new spellcasters tutored by some Sage character. Growth is essential - The whole point of this kind of magic is to progress through it to become more powerful. The kinds of spells, charms, and potions that can be learned are only limited by the laws of your world, but magic that’s learned is often divided into schools or specializations, just like any other profession or expertise. Instead, characters must learn magical skills through studies or mentorship from a more powerful spellcaster. In some cases, all characters can access this magic, while other stories might only have a certain subsect of society have the potential to wield this power.Įither way, most of your characters do not have an innate understanding of magic or a limitless font of power. In this category, magic is a tool or resource that characters can wield. If you want your characters to be bookworms, students, or teachers, magic from learning is likely the direction you’ll be taking. Whichever camp you fall into, you’re about to learn all about these wondrous schools of magic. Whether you already know what kind of magic your characters have access to or need a little spark to get your imagination going. That’s why we’re going to talk about ten different categories of magic in this article and how you can wield these mighty powers while writing your novel. And when you can make up basically anything when you’re building your world, that can be a heck of a lot. In fact, it can pretty much encompass any power or ability that science can’t explain. For many writers, though, writing about magic and those who use it is one of the best parts of writing.īut “magic” is a very broad term. Is there anything better than writing a character who wields awe-inspiring magic? Maybe winning the lottery or your wedding day (obligatory insert in case my wife reads this post).

![]() The provincial government wanted to increase residential and commercial development to the east of Toronto in the Regional Municipality of Durham, which includes Pickering and Oshawa, while keeping the lands to the north of Toronto agricultural, as a Greenbelt. Taft Broadcasting was concerned about opposition and flew a group of opponents and regional councillors to Mason, Ohio (near Cincinnati) to show them the positive impact of one of its theme parks on the local community.Ĭanada's Wonderland was also responsible for changing the master development plan for the province of Ontario. Some of the concessions the company made included a landscaped berm around the park to reduce noise and modifying the appearance of the large parking lot. People in the region were concerned that the new park would be similar in aesthetics to a carnival or midway. Other groups that fought the building of Wonderland included a Vaughan residential association called SAVE, which thought the increased traffic would reduce property values. Many cultural institutions in Toronto – such as Ontario Place, the Royal Ontario Museum, and the operators of the Canadian National Exhibition – felt that the Toronto market was not large enough to support more competition. Ĭonstruction of the park was opposed on multiple fronts. Walt Disney also considered the idea before choosing Florida for the Walt Disney World Resort, rejecting Toronto mainly because of the city's seasonal climate, which would make the operating season too short to be profitable. Others had seriously considered the Greater Toronto Area as a spot to build a theme park, among them the Conklin family (whose Conklin Shows ran various midways around North America, including Toronto's Canadian National Exhibition midway in Exhibition Place). ![]() Several other possible locations in Ontario were considered, including Niagara Falls, Cambridge, and Milton, but Maple was finally selected because of its proximity to the City of Toronto and the 400-series of highways. In 1972, the Taft Broadcasting Company, headed by Kelly Robinson, first proposed building a 134-hectare (330-acre) theme park in the then small village of Maple, part of Vaughan, Ontario, located directly north of Toronto. The Scarboro Beach and Hanlan's Point amusement parks both closed in the 1920s. Sunnyside Amusement Park closed in the 1950s to make room for the Gardiner Expressway. The city of Toronto had previously hosted three amusement parks that had roller coasters. When Canada's Wonderland was planned, the Greater Toronto Area lacked a seasonal amusement park. Since the closure of Crystal Beach Park in Fort Erie in 1989, Canada's Wonderland is the only amusement park in Ontario with wooden roller coasters in operation. Eight hectares (20 acres) of the park houses a water park named Splash Works. With eighteen roller coasters, Canada's Wonderland has the second most of any theme park, behind Six Flags Magic Mountain in California, which has twenty. Beginning in 2019, the park also hosts WinterFest, a holiday-themed event that extends the park's operating season to late December or early January. Special events are held throughout the season, including Halloween Haunt and various festivals such as Celebration Canada, a month-long Canada Day festival. Ĭanada's Wonderland normally operates from late April or early May to Labour Day, and then on weekends until late October or early November. The park still retains this record, with an estimated 3.8 million guests in 2022 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. ![]() In 2019, it was the most-visited seasonal amusement park in North America with an estimated 3.9 million guests. Cedar Fair purchased the park from Paramount Parks in 2006, and they have owned and operated the park since then. Opened in 1981 by the Taft Broadcasting Company and the Great-West Life Assurance Company, it was the first major theme park in Canada and remains the country's largest.

He recorded a few songs with them and started playing in house parties as well as venues that had Latin music in Boston. His name was growing in the Boston music scene and he was offered to join the Latin Pop band “Café con Piernas”. His performances with the trio brought more opportunities such as joining on 2012 the Experimental Hip Hop band “Light Bright” which he was part until mid 2014. He has recorded four albums with them and he’s still the drummer for the band after 8 years now. Pepe started playing with “Underground Mantra” all over the Boston area. Pepe’s first gig in the USA was with the Alternative Hip Hop band “Underground Mantra” back in 2011 after a month of starting his music career at Berklee College of Music. In an environment that breathes music such as Berklee, opportunities began blooming such as performing in a wide variety of venues and festivals in the Boston area, New York City area, as well with the rest of the East Coast. Guiliana served not only as a mentor, but an inspiration for Pepe’s ongoing career. During his time at Berklee, he had the opportunity to take lessons in NYC with his idol, drummer Mark Guiliana (David Bowie, Brad Melhdau, Avishai Cohen). With improvement, performance opportunities began rising, such as opening for Dominic Miller (Sting’s permanent guitarist) with his own project “La Pepa” at the Nescafe Theater of Arts in Santiago, Chile.Īwarded with a scholarship for a bachelor degree in Performance, Pepe moved to Boston to study at the renowned Berklee College of Music in 2011.

What's interesting is, the authorities didn't make her throw away the trash, it was her choice and eventually she decided to do it, but it wasn't easy. God has you hearing this, because he wants to do an intervention, he wants to help you clear out the worry, the offense, the guilt, the bitterness, those things that are cluttering your life. And I wonder how many of us are hoarders in our minds, we're not letting anything go, there's so much clutter, we can't enjoy our life. She was so focused on holding on to everything, she didn't realize it was limiting her life. It seemed obvious to everyone, all she was doing was keeping trash, but she couldn't see it. The lady told how that belonged to her children, that admits something to her and to put it back. At one point this man picked up an old popsicle wrapper, looked like there were thousands piled up in the corner, he asked if he could get rid of it. They went around to the side door, barely squeezed in. They knocked on the front door, but she couldn't open it. ![]() It got so bad, the authorities came to do an intervention. You can imagine how it smelled, how unhealthy it was. There was a small path to the kitchen to the bathroom and to a little place to sleep. ![]() And this one lady lived by herself in a two-story house, but you couldn't get upstairs, she had it so piled full of trash: old newspapers, empty cereal boxes, cans from food that she had eaten 30 years ago. I saw a documentary about hoarders, these are people that never throw anything away. They may come, but you don't have to hold on to it. You have to be proactive when it comes to keeping your mind in peace, because all through the day there's clutter, there's noise there's jealousy, there's hurts, there's a offenses. The scripture tells us to guard our minds. You can clear out the clutter, you can get rid of the negative things that are stealing your peace, taking your joy, draining your energy. I may not see a way, but God, I know you have a way". When the medical report is not good, when the contract doesn't go through, when you're in a legal situation, you can hold on to it, live worried, thinking "What am I going to do?" or you can let it go and say, "God, I know you're fighting my battles, I know what's meant for harm you're turning to my advantage. When you go through a disappointment, something doesn't work out, you can hold on to it, live discouraged or you can let it go and say, "God, I know you have something better. The past is over, this is a new day, I'm moving forward". You can hold on to it, go around down on yourself or you can let it go and say "Father, thank you that I am forgiven. When we make mistakes guilt will come, condemnation telling us how we don't measure up. You can't stop negative things from coming, but you can keep them from stay. If you're going to reach your destiny, you have to clear out the clutter. You weren't created to live worried, guilty, bitter, upset. And we wonder: "Why we don't enjoy life? Why we're not passionate about dreams? Why we can't sleep at night"? It's because our mind is cluttered. We're tempted to live guilty because of past mistakes and bitter over what didn't work out. It's easy to go around worried about our future, stressed over our finances, frustrated with our boss.

Slang and nicknames were a natural byproduct of these quick-service kitchens. It may be the same product, made the same way, but there’s very specific terminology used at each place.” “Patrons know what’s going on, but outsiders have to pick up on the nuance, and it becomes more pronounced as you go deeper into America. “It’s almost like going from country to country, where the language changes,” says Motz. “Old-time hamburger restaurants are direct descendants of diners,” says George Motz, scholar, filmmaker, and author of Hamburger America.There, the hamburger was absorbed into the highly regionalized vernacular of short-order cooks. ![]() The hamburger is the ultimate survivor, a food that fended off constant persecution only to entrench itself deep in the heart of American culture. Through it all, the hamburger rooted itself in some of the most important food institutions-namely, the diner. Since its introduction to the American public over a century ago, the hamburger has cycled through various phases-shedding its stigma as “left-over food,” finding success in the post-war period, and finally experiencing a renaissance in the late 1990s after its image was tainted by fast-food giants. ![]()
