Brian Buckles, vice-president of Green Durham, suggested that a compromise may be in order. “I’d love to see government commit now to a land use that protects all these lands in perpetu- ity from an airport or urban sprawl, however that’s not going to happen so I’d like to focus on land- use possibilities that fulfill as much of that dream as possible,” he explained. Mr. Buckle noted that even if the possibility of an airport is kept alive, the government would not need the entire 18,600 acres that constitute the federal lands, which leaves the possibility of pro- tecting a good portion of the lands. “The airport, if it happens, is a long way off and they shouldn’t be doing anything in the planning now that assumes there’s going to be an airport,” Mr. Buckles said, citing the results of a needs assessment study released in July that had airport contingencies scheduled as late as 2037. “In the meantime they should focus on environ- mental, agricultural and community objectives.

  • What's Better Than 12 Months of Curling, Warm Weather?
    Newsletter of the London Curling Club February 2015 What’s better than 12 months of curling, warm weather? Imagine a paradise where it never gets cold and the curling season is 12 months a year. The bonspiels are held in the summer when arena rentals are cheaper because hockey teams have stored their gear until fall. Along with the customary handshake, the pre-game routine includes carrying 80 rocks from a freezer to a five-sheet ice surface, pebbling and installing the hacks. Welcome to Curl San Diego, a club launched in this southern California city in 2006. Canadians living there are part of the process, proving you can take a Canuck out of Canada but you cannot take away his or her curling passion. Keven Jeffery’s attachment to curling goes back to his days playing for his high school team in Aylmer, Ontario. His career as a librarian took him to Boston, where he worked in the Boston University medical school. Jeffery and his wife were dating at the time and they decided to move closer to his wife’s parents, who had retired to Phoenix, Arizona. Her brother was living in Los Angeles. “I saw this job in San Diego at San Diego State University,” Jeffery said. It was much closer to her family and “there was no (snow) shoveling.” He got the job. Keven is a nephew of Mary Lois Cooper, who along with her husband, Bruce, is a long-time London Curling Club member. Keven missed his sport. “I went in to watch Bruce curl and I was envious.” He never found a place to curl in Boston but he did in much more southerly San Diego, just minutes from the Mexican border.
