Prime Minister John Key has defended Earthquake Recovery Minister Gerry Brownlee over the Christchurch consents debacle after suggestions he should have been asking questions sooner.
Labour MP Clayton Cosgrove said Brownlee, who was given sweeping powers after the Canterbury earthquakes, either failed to ask the right questions or ignored warnings of the looming crisis.
But Key this morning rejected that.
"I don't think so," he said. "On the advice I've had the assurances we always got from Christchurch was things were under control.
"I think it was the Government that actually started getting more worried and the Ianz [International Accreditation New Zealand] ultimately pulled the pin."
Key also attempted to hose down the scale of the problem after Building and Construction Minister Maurice Williamson yesterday acknowledged the Government had no idea how many building consents issued by Christchurch City Council might be illegal.
"Everyone probably needs to take a step back and get a better handle on exactly what the issues are before we unduly upset or concern Cantabrians," Key told NewstalkZB.
"The early advice I got was that this was a matter of the speed of consents, not the quality of consents. That seemed to be slightly contradicted by some claims Ianz made on Campbell Live and a couple of other places though Ianz are now backing away from that.
"So I can't honestly tell you. We're scurrying round to try and get that advice but in the end we'll get that and we'll work out way through it."
The prime minister said he did not get the sense from his briefings that the council consents process had been "slap-dash", however.
"If there was slap-dash behaviour going on then you'd imagine that's because they've been rushing things through and that's not what's been happening," he said.
"In the end . . . I don't want to overly speculate because I don't know.
"I'd just be a bit cautious before people jump to massive amount of conclusions."
Cabinet is expected to sign off the appointment of a Crown manager for Christchurch City Council today after a roller-coaster week which saw its chief executive Tony Marryatt placed on indefinite leave and an emotional Mayor Bob Parker announce his withdrawal from the mayoral race admitting he was exhausted dealing with the post-earthquake fallout.
Ianz revoked the council's accreditation and the council was unable to issue building consents. Ianz said some consents issued by the council might be illegal.
Williamson yesterday said the council could not tell the Government how many might be in breach.
"That's one of the first questions about why was their system so bad," told TVNZ's Q+A.
"They can't even tell us that. So we've had to bring in some of my ministry officials and some external technical experts and now they are trying to evaluate what's the size of the problem, how many consents are there."
There was not even a "ball park" figure available, Williamson said.
"We don't have a ballpark because we don't know how far back it goes, you see? So they've got to go back quite a distance. It might be that we go right back to the earthquakes. We might even have to go back [further]."
He said it would be foolish for him to put a number on it "but we're talking a big number".
Williamson blamed a "culture of denial" at Christchurch City Council for the crisis and said the problems with its consenting pre-dated the Canterbury earthquakes.
"Ianz went in on many occasions right back to when this accreditation stuff first started back in 2007," he said.
"They found it really difficult to get the Christchurch City Council across the line. Other councils were reasonably well and done and dusted and through.
"And along the way - so pre-dating the earthquakes - Christchurch City Council had issues about getting its accreditation to be a consenting authority."

Tourist sector confident of strong summer season
Relevant offers
Tourism operators have their fingers crossed for good holiday weather as they look forward to what looks like one of the Nelson Tasman region's busiest summers for a few years.
Many have just enjoyed a 15 to 20 per cent boost in November sales and are fully booked over the peak Christmas-New Year period.
Brent Clarke of Pohara Top Ten Holiday Park said the camp still had a few sites and accommodation units available but it was shaping up to be a good season.
"It'll be better than the last two years."
Bookings had been affected over recent years by the Christchurch earthquakes, Golden Bay's floods, the global financial meltdown and the lack of scallops in Golden Bay.
The strong New Zealand dollar had hit international tourist numbers, but holidaymakers from the region and Christchurch were filling the gap.
Valda Holland of Tahuna Beach Holiday Park said they had seen a lot of domestic and overseas visitors over recent weeks and there were few spare sites still available through till early January.
The biggest factor for the region was the weather. She had her fingers crossed for fine summer skies.
Pelorus Bridge Cafe and Camping Ground caretaker Nobby Neal said good numbers of international travellers, particularly from France, had boosted their November guest nights by 15 to 20 per cent.
The recent run of summer storms across the region had made visitors wary of booking too far in advance, he said.
Abel Tasman National Park's huts and campgrounds are already booked out for January and running close to capacity leading into Christmas.
Department of Conservation Nelson partnerships manager Martin Rodd said this summer was "looking like a pretty amazing season." Some of the park's campgrounds had limited capacity from mid-January but those who wanted to stay on the golden coastline should book now, he said.
Nelson Lakes National Park had only limited capacity in its West Bay camp leading into and during January. The park's Kerr Bay camp was booked solid to mid-January, Mr Rodd said.
There was still space in the Heaphy Track's huts for those who wanted to spend the festive season in the backcountry.
Abel Tasman Sea Shuttles director Keith Knapp said it had just had its best November ever and its forward bookings were up on previous years. "We are hoping the weather will treat us right and we will have a good season."
Mapua Leisure Park manager June Dunn said only a few unpowered spaces were still available towards the end of the first week in January.
"This year people are starting to come in earlier - from anytime now and quite a lot are starting from December 23.."
Nelson-Tasman Tourism chief executive Lynda Keene said operators were optimistic about this summer's season on the back of improving international markets - particularly the UK.

Rowntree: I felt ashamed
ESPNscrum Staff
December 29, 2011
Graham Rowntree is the only coach to remain from England's poor World Cup campaign © Getty Images
England assistant coach Graham Rowntree has revealed he felt 'ashamed' at being part of their disastrous World Cup campaign.
Rowntree was the only coach to survive the fallout from the highly-criticisesd campaign, in which England crashed out at the quarter-final stage after being caught up in numerous off-field controversies.
The former England and Leicester prop, who has been promoted to assistant coach in England's new coaching set-up, has spoken of the shame and embarrassment he felt when arriving back in England after the World Cup.
"When we landed, for the first time in my life I felt ashamed," he told the Daily Telegraph. "Ashamed of being a part of it. We got back on the Monday and I didn't go to pick the children up from school for a few days, or drop them off, because I didn't want to see anyone. "I didn't want to see friends who know what job I do, or mates in rugby. I just wanted to stay away from people."
There is little doubt Rowntree, alongside fellow assistant coach Andy Farrell and head coach Stuart Lancaster, are hoping to press their claims for full-time roles in England's future coaching set-up. However, for now he is enjoying the privilege of coaching England and focusing on securing success in the upcoming Six Nations.
"If we're successful I'd like to think they'll strongly consider us," he said. "But we don't think about it. Christ, you're coaching England, you're a kid in a sweetshop. And I've been in enough sweetshops.
"We have a duty now to get the show back on the road. I want that pride back. We want them [the players] to go out there with real energy and play how they do with their clubs and not feel inhibited about making a mistake. We'll back them. We want excitement, energy, pride."

Comparing the Xbox 360 and PS3 side-by-side
Why do most PS3 launch games look about the same as second-year Xbox 360 games? That's what the peeps over at 1UP are trying to unearth via side-by-side screen comparisons in an attempt to justify the PS3's $200 premium. And the first batch of results don't make the PS3 look so "high tech" when contrasted with the Xbox 360's year-old hardware. But before any Microsoft loyalists flex muscle and exchange respect knuckles, keep in mind the screens and vids are comparing first-generation and second-generation software. Sony is also betting the Cell is more scalable in the long run, however, so while the screens look near identical now, it's to be determined if subsequent graphics stay this comparable. But yeah, those considering early adoption of the PS3 can now do a double take.
[Thanks, Embassy]

"I wanted to get a gold charm that represented the dedication and love my son had for being a member of his college's marching band. This was for his 18th birthday. Since his college is a very well known school I thought it would be easy to find that charm. It wasn't I looked all over the internet and called my local jeweler. Couldn't find what I wanted anywhere. I luckily found your website. I called and spoke to Danny. This was to be a "custom" charm. We spoke and he gave me ideas that I never even thought of I was thrilled that finally I was able to get my son the charm I wanted too. I received the charm and it was beautiful, everything I expected and more. We gave my son the charm this weekend when we visited his school for Parent Weekend. He now owns something that no one else does and his fellow band mates/friends have given him numerous compliments. Thank you Danny and the others who helped make my idea a reality It was a pleasure and I would not hesitate to order from your company again."

"I received the locket watch I ordered, and instantly loved it. Unfortunately, there was a problem with the way it was engraved. When I called to state the problem, I was treated with extreme respect. Instead of the men sounding annoyed or uncaring, both of them were apologetic, stating they would be happy to re-do it. When I told Danny that I hated to part with it, I was told that I could wear it until I was ready to return it, and they would take care of the problem whenever I was ready. When I did get it back, it was absolutely PERFECT. It makes me feel so good every time I open the locket and get to see the engraved words and photo. It is beautiful. I have every intention of ordering from them again."

Thank you so much for your part in making this a special Christmas day for me.

Hardman & Bechko Talk 'Sensation'
Bechko and Hardman talk about their approach to Wonder Woman, their take on Jack Kirby's cosmic evil, and just why it is that page turns are so magical.
Bechko and Hardman talk about their approach to Wonder Woman, their take on Jack Kirby's cosmic evil, and just why it is that page turns are so magical.
ODY-C recasts the classic Greek epic as a star-spanning adventure through space that flips the genders around so that the story focuses on women.
We teamed up with Anthony Clark to launch the ComicsAlliance Thanksgiving Day Parade with the balloons we want to see!
Whether you're looking for something for a comic fan or just looking for something to tell your loved ones to look for, we're here with your Holiday Gift Guide.
There are good impulses behind Sam Wilson as Captain America, and a female Thor, but these are transitory gimmicks in an industry that needs real change.
Frank Gibson and Becky Dreistadt have established themselves as a creative team who excel at making a lighthearted, adorable comics with their work on Tiny Kitten Teeth and their Little Golden Book-esque publication of Tigerbuttah. In 2013, they were part of a crowdfunding campaign with Benign Kingdom for an art book titled Capture Creatures, which is launching this week as a new comic book series from Boom! Studios.
After giving the first issue a read, I had a quick chat with Frank about the book to learn more about the inspiration and thought behind Capture Creatures.
Welcome back to Up To Speed, home of the the Flashest Recaps Alive. Here we'll recap the episodes, dispense some Flash Facts and talk about what works, what doesn't and where the series might be headed, as we try and keep up with the adventures of Central City's finest hero, Barry Allen: The Artist Formerly Known As The Flash.
This week, we're looking at the seventh episode episode of the first season, "Power Outage," which features a guy with zap-hands looking for revenge, a Time Lord with Asperger's, and a cop hopped up on goofballs. Hold on to your butts, cuz things are about to get zaptastic.
If you're like some of the ComicsAlliance staff, you have a great affection for deluxe edition books that offer historical overviews of various pop culture topics, reprint the great works of the comics medium, and/or collect classic storylines (and supplement them with all kinds of bonus material)… And with the gift-giving season now in full swing, you're likely looking for the perfect gifts for your follow geeks (or possibly, wanting to give your relations some suggestions for things you'd like this year, in lieu of another ill-fitting sweater). So as a public service, we've compiled this list of some of the best expensive, large, and mind-blowingly ornate titles that you can find at your local comic shop or from online booksellers.
Over the past few years, Gabriel Hardman and Corinna Bechko have quickly become one of the creative teams that I look forward to seeing the most, and this week, they're giving me a pretty good reason to be excited. Today marks the release of the first installment of their three-part story in Sensation Comics, the digital-first Wonder Woman anthology, which finds DC's Amazon Princess sent on a rescue mission to Apokolips, the home of the evil New Gods.
To find out more, I spoke with Bechko and Hardman about their approach to Wonder Woman, their take on Jack Kirby's cosmic evil, and just why it is that page turns are so magical.
From Wi-Fi at McDonalds to G.I. Joe action figures with more than 11 points of articulation, 2010 has a lot of things that the '80s sorely lacked. One thing that decade did better, though, was the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. It's been a few years since I've woken up before noon to catch it, but if YouTube is to be believed the Masters of the Universe Float from '84 and the Marvel Floats from '87 and '89 alone are proof alone that the parade's floats just ain't what they used to be. See Skeletor whack Orko in the face with his Havoc Staff and the Silver Surfer hold on for dear life in the clips below.
I would give literally anything to read the high school term papers that kids who read Matt Fraction and Christian Ward's ODY-C instead of the original Odyssey are going to be turning in to their teachers in a few years.
The first issue is out this week from Image, and as you might expect from the title, it recasts the classic Greek epic by Homer as a star-spanning adventure through space that Fraction calls "our Barbarella," and flipping the genders around so that the story focuses on women is probably the smallest change. Captain Odyssia's journey on a shift-ship powered by a crew of women whose thoughts have been synchronized, tossed by vengeful space-titans, might follow the big beats of Homer's original, but it's definitely something all its own.
The American version of Thanksgiving is this week, and whether you celebrate the holiday as a gathering of family or a get-together for friends, the day can always be a mixed bag in terms of the quality of people who show up. Sometimes they're family members you're obligated to invite, sometimes they're friends of friends, but somehow there's always someone who makes the day memorable, but not necessarily in a good way. Here are ten characters who might rain on your Thanksgiving Day Parade.
The Holiday Gift-Giving season is upon us once again, and as always, that presents a pretty unique problem for comic book readers. We tend to hit our local shops or Comixology every week to grab our favorite books, so when it comes to finding something in comics that we really like, well, chances are good that we already have it. Fortunately, there's a lot of really cool stuff out there that's related to comics that makes for a fine gift.
So whether you're looking for something to give to a comic book fan or just looking for something to tell your loved ones to look for so that you don't end up with another box of Spider-Man themed Monopoly (note: this is the worst possible present), we're here with the first installment of our 2014 Holiday Gift Guide!
For me, one of the single greatest moments of the holiday season is the annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade! Not only does it signal the official start of the Christmas season, but it's the perfect combination of crass commercialism, holiday festivity and high school marching bands. And yet, as much as I love it, it just doesn't have enough comics for my tastes.
Sure, they've had balloons of Snoopy, Pikachu and Spider-Man before, and Marvel even had a couple of incredibly complex floats back in the '80s, but really, that just scratches the surface. Which is why today we teamed up with Anthony Clark, the artist and creator of the beloved webcomic Nedroid and the recent Beartato and the Secret of the Mystery collection, to launch the ComicsAlliance Thanksgiving Day Parade with the balloons we want to see!
The Tangent universe is a recurring feature in the third week of titles for DC's spring 2015 Convergence event, cropping up by name in the solcitations for the Flash, Justice League of America, and New Teen Titans two-part minis -- and "tangent" seems like an apt term to describe DC's impenetrable two-month event that offers all the confusion and frustration of a reboot with none of the narrative consequence.
Besides the Tangent universe, the other unifying theme of the third wave of books is that dig into DC's pre-Crisis On Infinite Earths past, with writer Marv Wolfman returning to the New Teen Titans, Len Wein taking another swing at his own creation, Swamp Thing, Diana Prince back in her modish 1968 white jumpsuit, and the return of the mid-80s Detroit Justice League.

Who's the best of your friends?
Read what members are saying!
I have two sons, ages 12 and 14 that are fairly strong for their age (class B and class A, respectively).
They now have a library of over 50 books (openings, middlegame, endgame, tactics, strategy, game collections). However, I would say that they have completely gone through about a fourth of them. Many of the books are 'classics', which have been recommended by various people or from reading various book lists posted by various sources.
I recently purchased a planning/middlegame video from a known grandmaster as it is a weakness that most scholastic players have (coming up with an appropriate middlegame plan). They really liked the video, and I am considering purchasing another one. However, I was just wondering if using videos is more effective than traditional book study.
Your thoughts? Books or videos (or both)?
BTW, they also have a teacher (NM) that goes over their games and teaches them once a week.
both,but i recommend book.
Learning abilities vary and are dependant on aspiration, concentration etc. Visual techniques are best and both these disciplines and personal tuition combine that technique. Providing each discipline teaches the reasoning and understanding in the instruction then really it is down to what a person responds to best and what they enjoy.
The books are a necessity as they require more attention and thinking. I find it far too easy to passively watch a video even though they are enjoyable to watch. Purchasing individual videos seem kind of expensive. I find it nice to have a membership to a site that has a vast video library like here on Chess.com or the Internet Chess Club (ICC).
I'd say it isn't so much about "book" or "video" as it is about the effectiveness of a particular example of each kind. Good and bad books exist, same with videos. I wouldn't be afraid to try out videos, or to chalk them up as bad when they don't help. It's all about what your kids find A) instructive and B) engaging.
As a class B player myself, one of the things I noticed is that it seems to be around this time where your skill as a player has advanced to a point where you seem to be able to make more independent decisions/judgments based on the lessons that you take in (what lessons to accept, which to reject, and which to apply situationally). I'd encourage you to encourage them to evaluate their teacher/book/video lessons maybe more than they've been accustomed to in the past, to build their confidence in their decision making.
I don't have a premium membership on chess.com, but they are both ICC members and play regularly on it. They have watched some of the videos on ICC, but they have not watched many of them. The video lesson that I bought contained video lessons, but it also had 'homework' in which they had to go through games (in .pgn format) to find the best move or determine the best plan. I found it pretty instructive because it was passive (watching a lecture), but also required active thought (homework).
I think the main thing I need to find is something that they will willingly study. For example, I found that they would rather study tactics using CT-Art instead of studying tactics from a book. Chess study seems to have migrated to the use of computers and kids especially seem to prefer this course of study. I'm old school (prefer books), but I think I have to supplement their learning with more computer tools which include the use of videos.
Bfn, I would suggest that your children go through the classic chess books. These books contain time tested material that is invaluable to a chess player. DVDs may be easier to consume, but they lack the quality of the best books. I would encourage them to devote their study time to the best materials available.
I prefer books, too. However, they seem to gravitate towards using computers and video. If I gave them a choice to use a computer/video to study, vice a book, they'll choose to use a computer or play a video. At this point in their development, I also have to be sensitive to the fact that studying 'something' even if it's from a computer/video is better than 'nothing'.
Books, vids, etc. I think your kids sound talented and they're going to get something out of anything. I think you should get a diamond premium membership here and have access to a ton of educational material. IMHO the videos alone on chess.com are worth the premium membership price tag. IMs Pruess and Rensch are excellent teachers. And they have a lot to offer class B and class A players.
When I study from books (and I do quite a bit) I often support my books with computer assistance. I play thru games found in chess books using a big (free) database program I got online in conjunction with a chess engine. Between the notes in the book, and the chess engine, almost all my questions are answered. And playing thru a game by clicking and working out variations etc. right on the screen is very convenient and makes books study much more efficient.
Yes, I've personally gone through numerous books with them. However, I'm not alway available to work with them. My older son is starting to work independently (reading books on his own). My younger son is a work in progress. I'm hopeful that he'll start reading books on his own as he matures. He is certainly capable of studying independently. He was 'bored' one day and picked up the chess tactics for students book by Bain. He told me that he finished going through the whole book in less than two hours. If they find something interesting or something they are good at, then they are more likely to study it. It's no wonder that he'd rather study tactics, than strategy, planning, etc.
I teach chess to kids and, depending on their age, they respond better to visual examples. I use some of the ChessBase/Fritz training videos because they present the lessons in video within the ChessBase/Fritz screen so there's a board with pieces on it while the lesson is going. However, you have to be careful because some of the training videos are really geared towards adults. I have roughly 800 chess books which I use for reference. However, I like the interactive video method. Hey, ask your kids which they prefer!!

Ferrari 599XX glowing brake disk + downshifts !!!
Follow me on Facebook: http://on.fb.me/alexsmolik
In this video you will see a few Ferrari 599XX on the track, near La Source
= you will see glowing brake disks!!!! Pretty INSANE!!! The cars are
braking so hard their brake disks are VERY VERY HOT (so I don't say
"over-heat" :P) to a point they GLOW!!
Shot at Spa-Francorchamps. The Ferrari 599XX is a race car built by Ferrari
for their clients, based on the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, but for the track!
This monster can achieve 700 horse power at 9000 rpm... The sound of the
car is simply incredible, but the best part has got to be the downshifts =
you could hear them a few kilometers around, they echoed throughout the
whole circuit! Although the sound isn't as good as in real life, I
definitely hope you will enjoy it! But don't worry, I have more videos from
the event coming ;)

Here you are a long pure sound video about three amazing Ferrari FXX
Evolution I saw during the 2012 XX Programme at Monza Circuit (Italy). You
can hear the astonishing sound of the V12 engine during many full throttle
accelerations, lovely downshifts and high speed fly bys.

Starting the 1909 Blitzen-Benz, UNEDITED, @ Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance
The Blitzen-Benz was purpose built to do just one thing, to break speed
records (not racing), and it did repeatedly from 1909 through 1911.
(Edited version: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ga2HtUHzUuw )
Its speed of 228.1km/h (141.73mph) on April 23rd, 1911, driven by Bob
Burman at Daytona Beach, stood as a record until 1919. Twice the speed of
the fastest airplane, (12 April, 1911, Alfred Leblanc @
69.442mph/111.801kph in a Blériot Blériot) and even shattering the record
speed of 210km/h set by a locomotive in 1903.
This record was not even officially broken in an airplane until 1920!
Of the six originally built, this is one of only two that exist today, and
is displayed at the Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart, Germany.
While the extended and nuanced effort required to start the Blitzen-Benz on
a cool coastal morning can try the patience of some viewers, its historical
significance and ground-breaking engineering brilliance still place it
amongst the greatest motor-vehicle achievements of all time, and the dozens
witnessing this effort felt it was one of the highlights of many great
moments at Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance 2011.
Here's a great collection of vintage and modern images of the Blitzen-Benz
and other historic speed record contenders:
displacement 21500 cc / 1312.0 in³
bore 185 mm / 7.28 in
stroke 200 mm / 7.87 in
compression 5.8:1
power 149.1 kw / 200 bhp @ 1600 rpm
specific output 9.3 bhp per litre
bhp/weight 137.93 bhp per tonne

Blogs Liberty and Power Al Sharpton and Dem DemsJul 29, 2004 12:59 pm
Al Sharpton and Dem Dems
Okay, I admit it, I'm a political junkie. I've been super busy preparing the next issue of The Journal of Ayn Rand Studies, but I have been unable to switch off the Democratic Convention, as predictable as it has been. Switching between network coverage, cable news coverage, and gavel-to-gavel C-SPAN coverage, I've been entertained.
But I have to say that the most riveting of all the speakers was fellow Brooklynite, Al Sharpton. Of course, I cringed over a lot of his political ideology, but, for my money, his speech proved that he is still Dem Dems' biggest firebrand and best comedian. You can read his speech here, but you still had to hear him and see him, because that's the only way to appreciate a performance artist. I know that rabble-rousing is not what one expects from a Presidential candidate, and I suspect that John Forbes Kerry (called by one delegate"John Fitzgerald Kerry") will induce a few yawns tonight. But I'll be watching nonetheless (even if I still agree with George Will that"you can't slip a Kleenex" between Kerry's and Bush's position on Iraq).

Fantagraphics Launches Manga Line
With a Collection from a Shojo Pioneer
Published: 03/09/2010 12:38pm
Fantagraphics Books will launch a new line of manga in September with the release of Drunken Dream, a collection of short manga stories created between 1971 and 2007 by Moto Hagio, one of the pioneers in the development of shojo manga in the 1970s. Hagio, who was a founding member of the artist collective known as the "Magnificent 24," has won nearly every key manga award during her illustrious career. Hagio has been credited as one of the founders of shonen-ai (boys'love) manga, but she also has created science fiction sagas ("They Were 11"), family dramas, and works in all sorts of genres, while winning the Shogakukan Manga Award, the Osamu Tezuka Cultural Prize, and the Nihon SF Taisho Award. Hagio will be making her first visit to the
In December Fantagraphics will publish the second volume in its new line, Shimura Takato's Wandering Son, an ongoing series that follows two young friends, Shichi a boy wants to be a girl, and Yoshino, a girl who wants to be a boy. As puberty approaches the two young friends help each other cope with their gender frustration.

Diary of a Madman
Features:Age: All Ages Price: $15
Noperks Theater's adaptation of the Gogol short story involves only one actor and three musicians to present the story of a man slowly receding into a world of fantasy. The show premiered in Brooklyn in 2012, and was most recently performed at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. This three-night run in Portland marks both the culmination of this particular adaptation as well as something of a homecoming for lead actor Miro Caltagiroine, who first came to Portland as an exchange student at Lincoln and Grant high schools in 1999-2000.

The West Allis - West Milwaukee Monogram Organization is proud to announce the 2009 West Allis - West Milwaukee Monogram Scholarship Winners. The Scholarships were based on Academic and Athletic Accomplishments, School and Community Service. Each of these Senior Student-Athletes has been awarded a $1000 Scholarship from the Organization. Over the past twenty years the organization has given over $180,000 in scholarships, awards and donations to our community.
2009 Scholarship Winners
Hale Central

* Fehrenbach Memorial Scholarship
The West Allis - West Milwaukee Monogram Organization is one of the oldest service clubs in the West Allis - West Milwaukee School District, established in 1932. The aim of the club is to promote the ideals of fair competition, good sportsmanship and recognize high school athletes of championship status.
At the conclusion of each season (fall, winter, spring, summer), our organization awards plaques to conference championship teams and individuals, all-conference athletes and WIAA State Medalists. In May, we award the West Allis - West Milwaukee Monogram Scholarship Winners.
The Club also sponsors the Monogram Athletic Achievement Award, an award given annually to the High School in West Allis - West Milwaukee School district based on their finish in Greater Metro Conference competition. You see that award displayed in the Gym at West Allis Hale and the Fieldhouse at West Allis Central.
On Friday April 3, 2009 we held our annual Spring Dance and Silent Auction at the Zoofari Center at the Milwaukee County Zoo. On Saturday June 27, 2009 at St. Florians Parrish in West Milwaukee, the Club holds a Chicken Barbeque. If you wish to support the club but can't be present for the Chicken BBQ, consider supporting our "Dinner for a Veteran" program. Donated tickets provide a meal for a veteran living at the Zablocki VA Medical Center. Last year we were able to provide 525 dinners and over 1000 during the last three years. These are our only Fundraisers, which enabled our group raise enough money to award these $1,000 Scholarships and plaques.
Anyone interested in becoming a member of The West Allis West Milwaukee Monogram Organization call Dan Gaynor (262-542-1177), or contact any member, for information.
