We extend previous calculations of large-transverse-momentum {psi} and {Upsilon} production to Superconducting Super Collider energies. We then consider {psi}{psi}, {Upsilon}{Upsilon}, and {psi}{Upsilon} production, both from the lowest-order (single-parton-interaction) gluon-fusion diagrams and from multiple-parton interactions. Finally, we discuss combined quarkonium and weak-boson production arising from both single- and multiple-parton interactions. Standard-model {ital W}{psi} and {ital W}{Upsilon} production is a potential background to the detection of charged Higgs bosons through their rare decays {ital H}{sup {plus minus}}{r arrow}{ital W}{sup {plus minus}}{ital V}.
