MEGA Issue #9 — November Out Now

Inside this month’s issue:
Charities in Crisis: Too many hands, not enough help — where’s it all really going?
Ken Laban’s Balancing Act: Can the new Hutt boss keep his footing on the slippery slope?
No Sheet to Float On: New Zealand’s hidden water safety crisis — and why it’s closer than you think.
The Boom That Guarded the Bay: A look back at Eastbourne’s forgotten wartime barrier.
MEGA’s Movie Mash-Up: Classic films collide in our parody power hour.
Finally — The Bay Gets the Bar It’s Been Waiting For: Raise a glass, responsibly or otherwise.
Chef Gordon Ramswine’s Monthly Recipe: The only swine who swears more than Gordon himself.
