Burnaby’s first and favourite information source Delivery 604-942-3081 • Wednesday, April 28, 2010

Keeping hope alive: Ron Braumberger has spent three years waiting for more information about his missing son, Bryan. Bryandisappeared on June 1, 2007, and his family continues to hold out hope he will return alive. Ron has a flyer with Bryan’s informationon his car, and he regularly replaces old faded flyers in the Cariboo Hill area.

It’s an overcast Monday morning, and theliving room is dark in Ron Braumberger’squiet Cariboo Heights home.

But even if the sun came out, there wouldstill be little light in the life of the Burnabysawmill worker.

It’s been almost three years since Ron andhis wife, Janice, had just returned home froma vacation in Reno when they found out their18-year-old son, Bryan, had disappeared,seemingly without a trace.

The day was June 1, 2007, and Bryan’s

abandoned car was found in the GeorgeDerby Centre parking lot. Bryan hadn’tshown up for work, and he hasn’t been heardfrom since.

“For us, it’s like a twilight zone, and we’rein limbo because we don’t know what’shappened to Bryan,” said Ron, who said hisolder son, Trevor, is also affected by Bryan’sdisappearance. “We live with this every day.We wake up with it, we go to sleep with it,but nothing’s changed ... We still don’t knowwhat happened to Bryan.”

During the course of a 30-minute inter-view with the Burnaby NOW, Ron’s emotionsrun the gamut from disappointment to hope,

but one thing doesn’t change: he hasn’t givenup on his younger son, who would be 21 rightnow.

“I have to keep hope alive that he’s stillalive,” said Ron. “Only in the back of mymind, a small part in the back of mind, doI think he’s dead. ... It’s only a very smallpart.”

For Ron, talking to the media isn’t easy,but it’s something he wants to do if it can helphis family find their missing son.

“It’s very hard. Every day when I watchthe news or read the paper and they’ve founda body in the river or there’s a body in an

Eleven city parks, recreationand cultural services projectswill go ahead after receivingmore than $2 million in fundingfrom the city.

The largest of the projectsincludes upgrades to BurnabyCentral High School, with thecity contributing $1.06 millionfrom capital reserves.

Funding for the capital proj-ects – nearly $2.17 million includ-ing GST – was approved by citycouncil at Monday night’s coun-cil meeting.

The upgrades to BurnabyCentral are on track, accordingto Dave Ellenwood, director ofparks, recreation and culturalservices.

“That facility is going onschedule,” Ellenwood said, add-ing the other projects were most-ly “major maintenance, some fit-outs and interior stuff.”

POST-TREATMENTPRE-TREATMENT POST-TREATMENT POST-TREATMENTPRE-TREATMENT

The Vein and Laser Clinic was established in 1992 and since then thousands of patients, have been treated at its central Lonsdalelocation in NorthVancouver. The facility introduced several innovative techniques in British Columbia and it was the first in the province tooffer ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy and ambulatory phlebectomy several years ago.The clinic is unique in that it makes extensive use ofadvanced color doppler and duplex ultrasound, to detect all the diseased vein segments and accurately pinpoint the source of the varicoseveins.The technology thus enables delivery of a sclerosing solution into deeper lying vessels with precision that would be very difficult toachieve with conventional techniques.All this makes the treatment safer and more effective with excellent functional and cosmetic results.

~The practice of medicine is changing rapidly anddemands constant innovation. Keeping abreast ofthe latest developments, the facility in 2002, underthe direction of Dr. Ferdinand Stasiak, was thefirst in Canada to perform a breakthrough in thetreatment of varicose veins. Called EVLT or endo-venous laser therapy, it offers a much less invasivealternative to stripping ~

abandoned car, I get a pit in mystomach,” said Ron. “We try todo things as normal as possible,but there’s always that part of uswaiting for news about Bryan.”

Ron tries not to dwell on thenegative when he talks aboutBryan but little snippets of regretdo come out.

“We don’t go on vacationsanymore,” he said, referencingthe Reno vacation when theyfound out Bryan was missing. “Itwould be so hard for us to enjoyourselves.

“I don’t dream any more. Iknow it’s kind of weird, but that’snot something I do any more.”

Perhaps the toughest momentscome with the everyday, routinethings in the Braumberger house.

Trevor still lives in the spa-cious basement, but now he has adog to keep him company.

To keep some semblance ofsanity, Ron has kept his seasontickets to the B.C. Lions – 20 yearsis how long he’s had the tickets– but even that’s tough becausehe used to take his sons to games.Thankfully, a close friend hasmade sure that Ron always hascompany during those games.

The family’s work schedulesare also very interesting.

Because Ron works a late shift,3 p.m. to midnight, he has mostof the morning and afternoon tohimself. More importantly, Janiceand Trevor, who work regularday shifts, don’t see him for theentire evening.

“I worry for her, probably asmuch as she worries about me,”said Ron. “The one thing I willsay is we have supported eachother so much ever since (Bryandisappeared). We’re in thistogether, we’re going throughthis together.”

While Ron and Janice findsupport from each other andson Trevor, it’s not so easy withfriends and acquaintances.

“I know it’s been almost threeyears and people’s lives go on, butfor us, it’s still taking place,” saidRon. “We find a lot of people wetalk to find it hard to mention itor not mention it, but sometimes Iwish people would acknowledgeit more. It is the big elephant inthe room. … I know it’s hard, butwe don’t want people to forgetthat Bryan is still missing.”

Ron said he hasn’t heardfrom the RCMP in more than 18months, and there hasn’t beenany news since September 2007,when the police took down theircommand centre in the GeorgeDerby Centre parking lot.

“I don’t blame the police,” hesaid. “What are they going to tellme if there’s no new develop-ments? … They can’t do some-thing with nothing. … I do knowthat if something comes up, they’llcall us first.”

Cpl. Brenda Gresiuk, mediaspokesperson for the BurnabyRCMP, said missing personscases stay open indefinitely andan officer does periodic checkson the case to make sure that anyleads are followed up on.

“I can’t imagine how hard itis for the family to not knowwhat happened to their son,” saidGresiuk. “What I can say is if wehave any new information that

helps the case move forward, wewill contact the family.”

After Bryan’s disappearance,the family, through the MissingChildren Society of Canada, putup a $30,000 reward for informa-tion leading to news about hiswhereabouts, but even that trailhas led nowhere.

“We thought the reward wouldlead to more tips,” said Ron, “butthere hasn’t been anything. …I’ve gone through a million dif-ferent scenarios in my head andI just don’t know which one ofthem is the truth. We’ve had thebest of the best in the police, fromtheir serious crimes unit to IHITtell us this is something that only

comes up every seven or eightyears, a case that just baffles thembecause there are no leads, noth-ing that helps them.”

One thing Ron knows in hisheart is that Bryan didn’t runaway.

“We’ve kept his car (the red1998 CRX) in the garage,” saidRon. “I know how much workhe did, putting in a new motor,transmission and sound systemin that car. … If he had run away,that car would be gone as well.”

While there are no easy days,there are tougher ones for theBraumberger family.

“June 1 is hard, Bryan’s birth-day of Aug. 14 is hard, andso are Trevor’s birthday andChristmas,” said Ron. “There’s alot more hard days than you canever imagine.”

When the third anniversary ofBryan’s disappearance does comeon June 1, Ron knows exactlywhat he’ll be doing.

“I spend the morning doingmedia stuff because that’s achance to get Bryan’s story out,and hopefully something comesout of it,” he said. “And by theafternoon, Janice and I go awayfor a hike. … We’ve gone toSquamish or Buntzen Lake in thepast. … We’ll just go away and beby ourselves.”

The Bryan Braumberger story goes backto May 31, 2007, when he went to a friend’shouse in New Westminster, to watch TVand play video games.

Because there was no street parking forBryan’s red 1998 Honda CRX, the 6-0, 185-pound Cariboo Hill Secondary graduateparked his car next door at a church lot onEighth Avenue.

The last confirmed sighting of Bryanwas just after midnight, when his friendswalked him to his car after they had fin-ished playing video games. Bryan toldthem he had to go home because he had toget up for work in the morning.

The drive from New Westminster tothe Braumberger home should have takenless than 10 minutes, but there was no evi-dence Braumberger made it back home.

A witness later reported seeing Bryan’s

car in the vicinity of Austin Avenue andMarmont Street in Coquitlam, but thewitness couldn’t confirm if it was Bryandriving the car.

On June 1, Bryan’s abandoned car wasfound in the staff parking lot of the GeorgeDerby Centre.

The police did not suspect anythingwas amiss, so they ordered the vehicletowed, leaving a phone message on theBraumberger answering machine.

When Janice and Ron arrived homefrom Reno later that day, they picked upthe message and started investigating.

They soon learned that Bryan had nevermade it to work that day. They also con-tacted his friends, but none of them knewwhere Bryan was.

When forensic investigators searchedBryan’s car, they did not find any indica-tion of a struggle. There wasn’t any bloodinside the car. Bryan’s identification wasfound inside, but his keys were missing.

When investigators checked Bryan’sbank account, they learned that there hadbeen no recent activity.

“Somebody knows something,” saidRon. “Somebody had a part in Bryan’sdisappearance. … We just want them tocome forward, it can be anonymously, itcan be through a phone call or a letter, butsomebody knows something.”

Ron keeps laminated posters withBryan’s information in his car and he poststhem on telephone poles in the CaribooHill area. When they fade, he puts up newposters.

Anybody with information on BryanBraumberger’s disappearance can contactthe RCMP at 1-877-543-9217, or to remainanonymous, CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

The Missing Children Society of Canadais also accepting tips. Call 1-800-661-6160or e-mail [email protected].

project, and the school dis-trict is putting in $2 mil-lion.

The City of Burnaby isslated to spend about $1.83million more.

Other projects include$150,000 to refurbishingthe exterior of AndersonHouse at the ShadboltCentre for the Arts; $50,000to the Shadbolt Centrefor upgrades; $80,000 forinterior fit-outs at culturalfacilities; $60,000 to replaceequipment at the BurnabyVillage Museum; $150,000to replace recreation equip-ment; $385,000 for buildingmaintenance, replacing pic-nic tables and maintainingtennis courts; and $25,000for security improvements.

Bonsor RecreationComplex is getting $100,000towards a Grab and Go cof-fee kiosk, which is slated tobe completed in the fall.

Bonsor previously had arestaurant on the premises,but that was converted intoa fitness facility.

“The restaurant wastoo large,” Ellenwoodexplained. “It didn’t servewhat people needed.”

The vending machinesoffer too little, he added, so

the kiosk is a better option.The kiosk will sell coffee,

wraps, snacks and sand-wiches and will be staffedby the city, Ellenwoodsaid.

A 26-year-old Burnaby resident shouldhave stayed with the real thing in hisbottle of Coca-Cola.

At 7:30 a.m. on April 22, the Burnabyman was pulled over for a routine trafficstop in the 900 block of Third Avenue inNewWestminster.AstheNewWestminsterPolice Service officer engaged the driver inconversation, the smell of marijuana ledto the motorist’s arrest for possession of acontrolled substance.

Upon further investigation of the vehi-cle, a large amount of cash and a half-fullbottle of Coca-Cola were also seized.

But the bottle didn’t just contain sodapop, as the police discovered the bottlehad a false bottom that contained a baggiewith crack cocaine in it.

The Burnaby man now faces an addi-tional charge of possession of a narcotic forthe purpose of trafficking.

The B.C. Liberal govern-ment’s announcement thatthe Site C dam project on

the Peace River would go tothe next stage of the approvalprocess may have revealed asubtle yet important shift in howpeople – and themedia – perceive ourtwo major politicalparties.

Aside from the predictablereaction – environmentalistsoppose Site C while the businesscommunity endorsed it – whatwas most interesting was howquickly the story faded from theso-called “news cycle.”

The B.C. Liberals, mired inunpopularity, appear to havea severely weakened ability toset and control the agenda. Thegovernment hasn’t really comeup with many new ideas andpolicies (other than the dreadedHST) since the election, and alack of revenue shackles anykind of spending spree.

The Site C announcementwas almost a one-day story formost news outlets, and even theenvironmental lobbyists didn’tsound overly agitated about theissue.

I wonder how much of thisreaction is linked to the impres-sion that so many people appearto have: that Premier GordonCampbell and probably his partyas well are stuck so low in thepolls that there is little prospectfor recovery.

Therefore, it’s hard to take

seriously any promise about aproject (such as Site C) that isso far in the future that a com-pletely different party will be incharge by the time constructionactually begins.

In fact, I get the feeling thatmany people simplyhave stopped listeningto the B.C. Liberals andhave effectively tuned

them out. I’ve always said a gov-ernment in significant declineis no longer given the benefitof the doubt by the public itpurports to serve, and thereforeits recovery is made that muchmore difficult.

When that mindset takeshold, governments pay dearly.We saw that with the SocialCredit party in 1991 and theNDP in 2001, and we may bewitnessing it now with the B.C.Liberals.

These kinds of attitudes mayexplain why Campbell and hisgovernment got absolutely nobounce in the polls in the after-math of the gloriously successfulOlympic Winter Games, whichelectrified the public.

I realize the next election isstill three years away, whichadmittedly is a very long time inpolitics. However, the Socredswere dead in the water wellbefore the vote in 1991, and theNDP was on life support evenbefore the RCMP raided then-premier Glen Clark’s home inthe spring of 1999.

Too busy? Start by turning off the television“I’m too busy.”When was the last time you heard

someone say that? When was the lasttime you said it yourself? Chances are, itwasn’t that long ago.

We’re living in an age whenmany of us feel frazzled everyday, don’t get enough sleep,microwave dinner because wedon’t have time to cook and– judging by our expanding waistlines– don’t spend much time walking ordoing other forms of exercise.

Ironically, we have more labour-

saving devices now than at any othertime in human history. Too busy towash clothes by hand? Throw them ina machine. Too busy to boil water in akettle for tea? Heat a mug of it in the

microwave. Too busy to peel acarrot? Eat a “baby carrot” outof a bag.

So, where has the timegone? Here’s a theory: A lot

of that missing time is spent workingat our “unpaid job,” which, for mostpeople, averages 31.5 hours a week.No, we’re not talking about household

chores, child rearing or caring for agingparents.

We’re talking about watching TV.Organizers of TV Turnoff Week,

which was last week, say the averageAmerican watches four hours and 35minutes of TV each day. Those figuresare from a 2006 Nielsen survey, andthere’s no reason to believe Canadiansare any different. The only differencemight be a slight decline as computerscreen time replaces TV viewing.

Either way, four-and-a-half hours aday of screen time adds up to 31.5 hours

a week, 136 hours (5.67 days) a monthand a whopping 1,638 hours (68.25 days)a year. That’s the equivalent of 9.75weeks, or more than two months eachyear. No wonder so many of us feellike we’re too busy to cook a meal fromscratch or go for a walk.

Good thing there’s an off button. Oh,and if you’re thinking that you missedan opportunity as TV Turnoff Week hasjust ended – don’t worry, there’s anotherone coming up from Sept. 19 to 25.

And, of course, any week can be TVTurnoff Week in your household.

Can Liberals stoptheir decline?

Private schools deserve fundingDear Editor:

Re: Your recent web poll on private school fund-ing.

I vote yes, I think private schools should gettaxpayers’ money. All the children who attend aprivate school have parents that pay taxes. I thinkthe government should invest into all children’seducation, no matter what school they attend.

Don’t give businesses the voteDear Editor:

Re: Give civic vote back to businesses, In MyOpinion, Burnaby NOW, April 24.

I strongly disagree with Brian Bonney’s opinionpiece where he says that businesses should get tovote in municipal elections.

I have no desire to destroy commerce in Burnaby.I recognize that local businesses are a very impor-tant part of my community, and I am open to thepossibility that paying a higher rent in exchangefor getting cheaper products at the mall, or betteremployment opportunities at the job fair might bea good idea.

I do not see why a part of my vote should betaken away as punishment for my perceived inabil-ity to handle tax policy decisions like this.

If you don’t like how I voted last time, don’t reactby taking my vote away, talk to me. You can startby writing back to this newspaper why the voters

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

In each case, both par-ties chose new leaders andput the election call off aslong as possible, but theirdemise was sealed.

And so the B.C. Liberalswill also play for time andmay well end up choosinga new leader– one that isclearly different, and in sodoing regain the public’sattention and confidence.

In the meantime, how-ever, pressure will gradu-ally build on the NewDemocratic Party to pro-vide some clear, specificalternatives to B.C. Liberalpolicies.

Other than a Pavlovian-like tendency to demandthat money get thrown atpretty much everything,New Democrats haveavoided being pinned

down on any particularissue.

The party’s energycritic, John Horgan, took atentative stab at definingthe NDP’s position on SiteC (the party is opposedto it but is willing to bepersuaded to back it if spe-cific concerns are met). Asmurky as that position is,it is one of the more spe-cific positions the NDP hastaken on anything.

The party is unclear,for example, what exactlyit would do with the HST.New Democrats may besigning the anti-HST peti-tion in droves, but if theytake power in 2013 there isno indication they woulddo anything with the HSTitself. But eventually,as much as people mayhave tuned out the B.C.

Liberals, they will begindemanding to hear some-thing from the NDP. Partyleader Carole James, whohas taken a low profilein recent months, will bepressured to come withsome ideas of her own.

The NDP is currentlyobeying the old politi-cal adage that says if agovernment is falling, theOpposition simply has toget out of the way.

At some point, how-ever, the Opposition hasto show it’s ready to gov-ern. People are going tostart looking at the NDPseriously, especially if theB.C. Liberals keep driftingalong ever closer to thatcliff.

Keith Baldrey is chiefpolitical reporter for GlobalB.C.

‘Two-tiered’ educationDear Editor:

As a public school teacher of almost 20years, I have read your editorial letters onpublic vs. private schools with interest.

I am not in favour of private schoolsas they exist, and I believe they shouldreceive no funding from the public purse.

Let me explain.If you ask any parents of a private

school student why they send their childthere, you will receive the same answer:they receive a “better” education.

Better how? The teachers who teach inprivate school receive the same training asthe public school teachers.

So, the difference must be with the stu-dents, right? Exactly.

Private schools can say “no” to childrenwho have special needs (physical, learningdisabilities, etc.) and any who are not aca-demically strong (entrance exams).

Public schools accept all students,regardless of ability.

Imagine you’re a teacher with a classof 30 students – one is autistic, one isADD, three have learning disabilities, andabout another third of the class is reading

below grade level (and you can’t fail thembecause the government won’t let youbecause it’s a money issue).

Compare that to a class of 20 to 25 stu-dents, none of whom has special needs orlearning problems, and who have alreadycome into the school as capable learners.Guess which class performs better accord-ing to the Fraser Institute.

This public vs. private education resultsin a two-tiered system.

The private system is perceived tobe better because it chooses who gets it(financial ability of parents, lack of specialneeds).

When the private schools admit all stu-dents, regardless of ability, then we couldprovide full funding for all schools, publicand private.

Say no to business voteDear Editor:

Re: Give civic vote back to businesses,In My Opinion, Burnaby NOW, April 24.

Giving the civic vote back to businesswould give some people an undeservedadvantage.

While independent business ownersare an essential part of every municipal-ity, they are, however, no more importantthan the citizens they employ.

Since all business expenses, includingtaxes, are passed on to the customers, itwould only be fair if they get an equal voteon that matter.

I believe anything else would beundemocratic.

34 YEARS AND 2 GENERATIONS IN BUSINESS34 YEARS AND 2 GENERATIONS IN BUSINESS


Early this morning, politicians andlabour organizations – as well as family andfriends of employees killed in the workplace– gathered at the Vancouver Art Gallery tohonour those killed or injured on the job.

In 2008, 160 workers died on the job inBritish Columbia and 1,036 workers diedon the job throughout Canada, according tothe Canadian Labour Congress.

The congress, along withrepresentatives from the NewWestminster and District LabourCouncil, the Vancouver andDistrict Labour Council and theB.C. Federation of Labour, metat the gallery in downtownVancouver at 7:30 a.m. to com-memorate the lives lost to work-place accidents.

This year’s focus is on theloved ones of people who died inthe workplace, according to JimSinclair, president of the B.C. Federation ofLabour.

“It’s about remembering the families andthose left behind,” he said in an interviewprior to the gathering, adding that it givesfamilies and friends a place to share theirgrief and anger. “When someone dies, otherpeople are affected.”

Sinclair pointed out that it was oncesocially acceptable to drink and drive, butthat has changed because society recog-nized the cost, in terms of human lives.

He would like to see the same thing hap-pen with workplace accidents.

“Every day in this province is a day ofmourning (because workers are injured orkilled in the workplace), almost all of themneedlessly,” Sinclair said.

He would like to see more enforcementof safety codes and a priority placed on jobtraining, he said, as well as tougher rein-forcements for safety violations by employ-ers.

Raj Chouhan, NDP MLA forBurnaby-Edmonds, spoke to thelegislature about the issue onMonday, April 26.

“Safety is a secondary issueto running a business,” Chouhansaid. “This continues to create anunsafe workplace (environment)for our employees.”

The deterrents need to bestronger, Chouhan said, to ensureemployers do their utmost to makeworkplaces safe.

“When you have a seriousworkplace accident,” he explained, “wemay need to charge that employer underthe criminal act for neglecting the safety ofthe worker.”

If people sincerely want to make work-places safer, he said, it is time to takeaction.

“I hope we all realize, we have a col-lective responsibility here,” Chouhan said,adding it is not enough to mourn for thosewho have been injured or killed. “We alsohave to pledge to protect the living.”

Burnaby NOW reporterJennifer Moreau recentlyinterviewed Paul Irwin,a local resident chosen asa Hero of Ability by theB.C. Centre for Ability, anorganization that promotesthe rights of all peoplewith disabilities to live inan inclusive communitythat values their participa-tion.

Every year, the centrepicks a handful of excep-tional people who defy the“disabled” stereotype bymanaging their challengeswith a positive, deter-mined attitude.

Irwin was noted forcampaigning to get morestreetlights installed tomake his neighbourhoodsafer. Irwin will receivehis award at an upcom-ing celebration May 13, inVancouver.

Moreau: Could you kindlyintroduce yourself?Irwin: Paul Irwin

M: Where are you from?

I: South Burnaby

M: Congratulations on theaward. What did you thinkwhen you were named ahero?I: I was rather surprisedand shocked.

M: Can you tell us aboutyour campaign to get morestreetlights put up in yourneighbourhood?I: I went door-to-door can-vassing to ask the neigh-bours if they would likemore lights.

M: How did your neigh-bours respond when youwere petitioning?I: Some said yes, and somesaid no.

M: What other things doyou do to help your com-munity?I: Help make things safer,as one of my staff almostfell in a hole at night. Whenthe HandyDart was onstrike, I supported the driv-ers by wearing a badge thatsaid, “We carry people notparcels.”

M: Can you describe yourcondition in a nutshell?I: I have hydrocephalus,spina bifida and very littleeyesight on the left andshadow vision.

M: How does it affect yourlife?I: That’s why I am in achair. I can’t walk, but I amstill mobile. I have use ofone hand.

M: What’s the hardestthing you’ve struggledwith?I: Not demanding peopleto help me do things I usedto do. To ask for morehelp than doing things formyself.

M: What is the best lessonyou’ve learned?I: Try and manage with theway I am now at present,although some things areharder than others.

M: What is the biggestmisconception the publichas about people with dis-abilities?I: To be able to learn howto deal with people withdisabilities and the prob-lems they would have.

PROFILESJennifer Moreau



were 37 cents each – theoffer is also available allday Sunday – and theywere a veritable steal of adeal.

The coconut wings andginger sesame wings werewhat I call perfect summerfood.

The Ricky wings –named after Naiker – wereanother story altogether.

“What we were tryingto do with the Ricky wingwas create something thatwas hot, but not too hot,”Naiker said. “I have some-thing called the third biterule. Wings tend to losetheir flavour after threebites but our wings tastethe best after the third bite.We’ve added the spicesand the flavours so thatyou keep tasting the fla-vour of the wing well pastthe third bite.”

After finishing off my 10Ricky wings, I’ll give fullcredit to Naiker for comingup with a wing hot enoughto keep me interested butnot so hot that I’m drinkingall the water on the table.

Naiker said the creditshould go to kitchen man-ager Maggie Cameron, whohas the unenviable task ofmaking sure all the ingredi-ents are in place to make 50different wing varieties.

What also differentiatesHouse of Wings is it servesmore than just wings.

Naiker and staff haverecently done a revamp ofthe menu in anticipation ofits anniversary of openingup last May.

“You hear in the newshow the economy is sotough,” said Naiker. “Butwe’ve been very busy eversince we opened in May(2009) because we offerhuge portions at low prices.We’ve got more than 20employees, and we’re see-ing new customers everyday.”

Also keeping the Houseof Wings hopping is theiremphasis on showing anyand all major sportingevents on the flat-screentelevisions throughout the

restaurant.“We have all the

Canucks games, includingall the pay-per-view games,we have boxing, we haveUFC, we show all the majorsoccer games,” said Naiker.

House of Wings, locatedat HighGate Village, isopen from 11 a.m. to 11p.m. seven days a week(open to midnight onFridays and Saturdays).Call 604-540-6465.

Alfie’s Tips◆ One of the new offeringsat House of Wings is whatRick Naiker calls “TheIronman.” The Ironman isscheduled to be on the newmenu, and, like its name-sake athletic event, thereare several stages to “win-ning” the Ironman.

Anybody who can eatthe five Bavarian sausages,three eight-ounce steaks,five ounces of mashedpotatoes, three ounces ofvegetables, two pieces ofgarlic toast and 18 ounces

of beer gets their meal forfree. If they fail, the cost is$42.95.◆ Keep your eyes out forsome wing eating contests.

Naiker is partneringwith some friends to helplaunch wing eating compe-titions in the future.

“We’re trying to put ittogether, and one thingwe’ll do is give gift certifi-cates as prizes,” he said.◆ Go around the worldwithout leaving your barstool. Some of the wingofferings at House ofWings are categorizedaccording to country. Ifyou want to try the LatinAmerican wings, you’ll geta jalapeño, chipotle andranchero-style wings. Ifyou want the Greek wing,you’ll get a lemon garlic,souvlaki or zesty orange-flavoured wings.

If you want to be proud-ly Canadian, the honeybarbecue, honey garlic andmaple wings are excellentchoices.

Bask in the healing powers of Vitamin D


5172 Kingsway (@ Royal Oak), Burnaby, B.C. Canada V5H 2E8phone - 604-432-1442 email - [email protected] website - www.relaxtheback.com

24/7 support Stress, tension and pain can ruin any part of your day from the time you get up in the morning to the time you go to bedat night. At Relax The Back our office chairs, recliners, fitness and sleep products help you feel good all day, every day.


Researchers are still figuring out exactly muchvitamin D we need, but they do know that manyof us aren’t getting enough.

A Health Canada study released in March saidthat about three million Canadians — aboutten per cent of people aged six to 70 — haveinadequate levels of vitamin D.

Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, a vitalingredient in strong bones. Humans can produceenough vitamin D simply by being exposed to afew minutes of bright sunshine.

But for many people in Canada, months can goby before they can catch that sunny quarter of anhour. What’s more, the amount of the sunshinevitamin we produce is affected by the angleof the rays that reach the skin, so dwellers innorthern climes need more time in the sun.

As a substitute, many turn to supplements.The Canada Food Guide to Healthy Eatingrecommends a total of 1,000 internationalunits of vitamin D per day, of which 400 cancome from supplements. But West Vancouvercommunity dietician Kathy Romses says that maywell be revised to a larger figure later this year.

“There’s a whole bunch of research going onaround vitamin D and it’s resulted in someconflicting views on how much vitamin dwe should be getting, both through diet andsupplementation,” she said. “For me it’s the mostinteresting vitamin because there are so manydifferent diseases, autoimmune diseases andcancers and falls in the elderly that are linked toinadequate vitamin D.”

Romses still tells her clients to stick with theFood Guide for now, but also to try and find theirvitamin D in foodstuffs like milk, margarine, tunaor salmon rather than pills.

“You should be getting two cups or 500millilitres of fluid milk every day. That can besoy milk or cow’s milk. Fluid milk in Canada isfortified with vitamin D. That’s our key sourcewhen we’re not making it in the skin. Soy milkhas a different kind of vitamin, D2. It’s from aplant source, irradiated yeast, because there maybe vegetarians drinking it. Vitamin D3, which isfrom an animal source, is more active than D2.”

Many food products, such as yogurt, are alsofortified with vitamin D. These can help you hityour daily target, but Romses says people shouldbe mindful of stacking foods, fortified foods andsupplements on top of each other.

“With almost all nutrients, if you’re getting them

from food, you’re not at risk. It’s when you’retaking supplements that you can be. That’s whyI’m not a big fan of things like vitamin watersand things like Vector bars that people think arefoods but are actually nutritional supplements.A lot of people take a multivitamin, thentake a calcium supplement and a lot of thosesupplements come with Vitamin D plus whateveryou get from your diet can result in you gettingmore than your upper limit.”

Too much vitamin D can lead to nausea,vomiting, constipation, confusion, heartrhythm problems, weakness and unexpectedinteractions with medicines. In the long term toomuch vitamin D can lead to too much calciumbeing deposited in the body, which can lead tocalcification of the kidneys or the heart. But aquick glance at the labels on your food can keepyou well clear of risk.

A person’s ability to synthesize vitamin D startsto decline around age 50, at which point peopleshould start taking their 400 IU supplement evenif they are getting to enjoy the sunshine.

“The recommendation is also to give childrenvitamin D drops because they don’t get enoughfrom the milk,” Romses said. “Especially if themother isn’t getting enough fluid milk intakeduring the pregnancy.”

Do you ever wonder about the claims,ingredients and warnings on a tube oftoothpaste?

FRONT:

Fluoristat: A trademark for the product’sdecay-preventive ingredient, sodium fluoride.

Extra Whitening: A dubious claim, sincea Consumer Reports study of 41 brandsfound no correlation between tooth-whitening claims and actual stain-removalabilities. Even brands with peroxide,used in whitening strips and professionaltreatments, did no better at lightening or

removing stains than other toothpastes.

Tartar Protection: Regular brushing will helpprevent the formation of tartar, as longas you use any decent toothpaste. So willflossing. Only a dental hygienist’s scrapingremoves tartar.

BACK:

Medicinal Ingredients: The Canadian DentalAssociation says fluoride, by strengtheningtooth enamel, helps prevent cavities. It liststoothpaste as a source of fluoride along withfluoridated water and others. The associationsuggests rinsing with a minimal amount

of water after usingfluoridated toothpaste.

Non-Medicinal Ingredients: A mix ofabrasives (hydrated silica) to removebacteria, flavouring agents (sodiumsaccharine), detergents and foamers(sodium lauryl sulphate), and more.

Do Not Swallow: The Canadian DentalAssociation warns that excessiveswallowing of toothpaste by children undersix can cause fluorosis, or spotting of teeththat are still forming.

Here is a question I getall the time: How muchexercise do I need to doto see results? SometimesI think it is becausepeople want to know theminimum they need to do.

Let me start by saying thatif you are beginning anexercise program alreadywanting to know theminimum required effort, youmight as well go back to thecouch, desk or table.

If you want to see a differencefrom your exercise programyou need to put out a realeffort. I’m pretty sure youalready knew that. When wasthe last time you saw greatresults from anything when youmade a half-hearted effort?

Health Canada and theAmerican College of SportsMedicine have slightlydifferent recommendationswhen it comes to exercise, butessentially they are saying thesame thing.

You need to exercise for 30-60minutes at least three to fourdays per week. If you can do itfive to six days per week, that’seven better. My experience hasshown that four days per weekis enough for most people thatwant to lose some weight andtone up.

The key with any exerciseprogram is consistency and

intensity. Most people aremissing the boat on both.

They are not doing enoughexercise, and when they aredoing it they are not workinghard enough to see measurableresults.

The majority of people willsee great results by doing 30minutes of cardiovascularexercise, 20 minutes ofstrength training and 10minutes of stretching.

Your 30 minutes of cardio(walking, running, biking,swimming, etc....) should beat an intensity of 60-80 percent of your maximum heartrate. Personal trainers usea mathematical formula todetermine what your idealheart rate should be duringexercise.

To save you the time andheadache, all you need to knowis that your heart rate shouldbe between 130 and 150 beatsper minute while exercising.(Check with your doctor beforestarting an exercise program.)

You can take your ownheart rate by feeling fora pulse on your wrist justbelow your thumb, withyour palm facing up.

I suggest counting yourbeats for 30 seconds andthen multiply by two toget your beats per minute.

If math is not your thing,then the intensity of your

cardio would be described asmoderate.

It should not be easy but youshould never feel like you aregoing to have to stop because itis too hard.

Another way of looking at it isthat you should be able to carryon a conversation, but not singa song, while exercising.

Alternatively, you can purchasea heart rate monitor or use theone on your cardio equipment,since these monitors arestandard on most new models.

What you choose to do foryour cardio is up to you. Ialways recommend a varietyof exercises to keep thingsdifferent. At the end of the day,the most important things areconsistency and intensity. Getthese right and you will be onyour way to a fitter you.

Neworld Theatre is tak-ing satiric aim at the politi-cal realities of the modernworld with a brand newshow that’s coming to theShadbolt Centre for theArts this week.

Ali and Ali 7: Hey Brother(Or Sister) Can You SpareSome Hope and Change? ison at the Shadbolt fromtonight (Wednesday) toSaturday at 8 p.m. nightly.

The show is a followupto Neworld Theatre’s 2005production, Ali and Aliand the aXes of Evil, whichaddressed Afghanistan andthe war on terror throughthe eyes of the Alis, AliAbabwa and Ali Hakim– Arab-Persian stereotypesthat the actors created yearsago during improv games.

Nowitscreators,CamyarChai, Guillermo Verdecchiaand Marcus Youssef, turntheir attention to anotherworld featuring, as a pressrelease explains, “home-grown sock puppets, inter-active veils and a chorus ofAfrican-American revolu-tionaries.”

This new productionstems from research intothe issue of Canada’s secu-rity certificate detainees– five Arab/Muslim menwho had been held indefi-nitely in Canada, with nocharges and no legal accessto the evidence againstthem. The resulting out-cry by activists and civilliberties groups, combinedwith the election of BarackObama in the U.S., was the

impetus for the new show.And, as for the fact that

the sequel is numbered 7?“Ali Ababwa and Ali

Hakim thought calling it‘7’ made it sound more suc-cessful and that maybe it’llexcuse it if it’s bad. Nobody

expected Rocky 6 to be anygood. Or Saw 12.”

Ali and Ali 7 plays in theStudio Theatre at Shadbolt,

24 SFU takes Achilles 26 Caprice to Montreal 27 Coastal Cup results

SECTION COORDINATOR Tom Berridge, 604-444-3022 • [email protected]

The expansion BurnabyGirls Canadians moved intothe final four of the wom-en’s Provincial A Cup witha 3-2 win over CastawaysFC at the University ofVictoria turf on Sunday.

The first-year premiersoccer club scored thegame-winnng tally withjust minutes remainingin the match, when teamcaptain Amy Bobb headedhome the game-winninggoal.

The Canadians startedwith some dominatingpossession and attackingpatterns and went into thehalftime break with a 2-0lead on goals by KristenZoller and Stacy Warren.

However, the hardworking Island groupforced the Canadians intoa few mistakes and ten-tative play in the secondhalf and capitalized withtwo long range goals onstandin goalkeeper MarissaAntoniazzi, who performedwell for Burnaby.

Antoniazzi, theCanadians starting centre-back, was deputized intothe nets when Burnaby’skeeper could not make thetrip to the Island againstthe Lower Island leaguerunner-up.

With the score knottedat 2-2 and just a few min-utes remaining in regula-tion time, Bobb got a headon a loose ball in the boxfrom an uncleared BrittaRustad corner kick to sealthe win.

The win moves theCanadians into the semifi-nals of the Provincial Cuptournament against six-time defending championsSurrey United.

While the Canadianshave a solid 1-1-1 recordagainst Surrey this seasonand a superior 3-2 goaldifferential in those threegames.

“Surrey is always inpeak form at this time ofyear and is the overwhelm-ing cup favourite againstthe expansion Canadians,”said Burnaby head coachMatt Holbrook.

Game time is 12:30 p.m.on Saturday at Coquitlam’sPercy Perry stadium.

Burnaby won its open-ing round cup match 1-0over Richmond FC a weekearlier.

Surrey United won itsquarter-final matchupagainst Westside FC 3-0.

Tough year for Burnaby in cup play

Burnaby soccer was shut out of the CoastalCup his year.

The defending, two-time Burnaby GirlsUnited were denied a third straight A Cuptitle following a 2-1 loss in a shootout toCoquitlam Metro-Ford Silence in the under-18girls’ championship final at Minoru Oval inRichmond Saturday.

With a strong wind blowing off the waterthroughout the match, Burnaby gave up anearly goal in the opening minutes of play andwas forced to play catch up for almost 80 min-utes before scoring the equalizer.

Alisha Penev tiedthe match 1-1 in the88th minute, scor-ing with a keen left-footer from outsidethe 18-yard box thatbeat the Coquitlamkeeper cleanly.

In the firstovertime period,Burnaby’s MarissaDi Lorenzo, who hada strong afternoon onthe United backline,saved a possible shot

on goal from close range, after getting her headon a searching cross to the far post in the 94thminute.

Melina Gomez, who started the second halfin goal for United, was a bit shaken up afterattacking a 50/50 ball early in the second OTsession. Gomez stayed in the game.

United’s best chance to score in overtimecame off a build up from Abbey Vogt andKatelyn Reilly to Mikela Bertelli, whose ensu-ing shot on goal from near the box was easilystopped by Metro-Ford keeper Emily Wilson.

The shootout went to the sixth shooterbefore Burnaby’s Lyanne Gannon got toomuch of the ball and sent it over the crossbar.Coquitlam’s Kaila Henly then scored with alow shot to Gomez’s right for the cup-winner.

“It was a game of with the wind and againstthe wind,” said United coach Bruce Gant.“Going against the wind, we let it bother us

too much.”That was evident in the opening minutes

of the game, when Coquitlam forward NicoleWilson got away on the right side and sent ahard, high shot towards the net that Burnabystarting keeper Zoe Miceli got a hand on.

The ball deflected off Miceli’s gloved handand carried on toward the goal, bouncing overthe goalline into the United net after just 10minutes of play.

“It was a gameof with the windand against thewind. Goingagainst the wind,we let it bother ustoo much.”BRUCE GANTBurnaby Girls head coach

Lakers top Islanders in Jr. A lax openerThe Burnaby Lakers

argued their case well atboth ends of the floor intheir B.C. Junior LacrosseLeague opener.

The junior A Lakersraced out to a 7-1 first-peri-od lead and then coasted toa well-deserved 12-5 victo-ry over the Delta Islandersin their home opener atthe Bill Copeland SportsCentre Sunday.

Second-year lefty ChaseClark potted a hat trick inthe opening 20 minutes ofplay and newly acquiredJordon Jarvis led all scorers

with eight points, includ-ing a trizzy of his own.

Brodie Macdonaldlooked sharp for the mostpart in the Laker cage,stopping 30 Delta shots.

Josh Simons also pot-ted two goals, firing a pairof back-to-back markersto end the runaway firstperiod.

Tied 1-1 early into thematch, Burnaby explodedfor five goals in a two-min-ute span and were hardlythreatened thereafter.

Delta got itself on a bitof a roll midway throughthe middle stanza, scratch-ing to within four goalswhen the Lakers got them-

selves in a bit of penaltytrouble.

But Jarvis got the homeside back on an even keel,netting his first of the gameon Burnaby’s only power-play marker of the game.

Jarvis made the score10-5 at the end of the sec-ond, with a nice finish cut-ting to the Delta goal.

Burnaby outscored thevisitors 2-0 in the finalframe, including a short-handed breakaway tallyfrom Nick Bilic.

But, as sound as theoffence was, it was in thedefensive zone where theLakers hope to prove theirworth.

“We usually try settinggoals for our defence,” saidBurnaby’s Ross Dougan,who was wearing the cap-tain’s letter in the openinggame. “Our goal for thisgame was six goals. We’lltake it and keep workingon our team game. We’rehappy to get this winunder our belt.”

With the towering 6-7Macdonald back in goalfor the junior Lakers anda solid core of return-ing defenders, Douganbelieves Burnaby has theright foundation in placeon which to build a winnerthis season.

“Everyone is excited to

play and get some Ws,”Dougan said. “It will comedown to who can steal thewins now while everyoneis at school.”

Last year’s league cham-pion Coquitlam Adanacswon their league opener,scraping by the NanaimoTimbermen 12-11 in over-time Saturday.

Burnaby played the0-2 Langley Thunder inLangley Tuesday (afterNOW deadlines).

The Lakers will haveperhaps a tougher test nextSunday when they host theAdanacs at the Copelandcentre. Game time is sched-uled for 7 p.m.

RUGBYHIGH SCHOOL

It was the third timein the early going thatMetro-Ford was allowedto exploit space on theBurnaby flanks. Vogt’ssubstitution on defenceremedied that weakness.

Burnaby began thesecond half with purposeand was unlucky in theopening minute when ashot on goal by strikerAmy Lawrence sailedwide of the goal after theCoquitlam keeper hadstumbled and was in noposition to make a save.

In the 50th minute,Tessa Barbour sent anoutswinging corner intothe box that Lawrencehad a play on.

But Coquitlam re-established some con-trol midway through theperiod, with much of thebuildup beginning in theMetro-Ford midfield.

Barbour and Penevcame close again in the69th minute off a cornerkick that the Coquitlamkeeper just steered widewith a glove.

Penev made no mis-take on her next chancehowever, tying the game

with a solid strike withjust two minutes left toplay in regulation time.

“Everyone agreedwe didn’t play our fin-est game today and whenyou leave it to the lastminute, anything canhappen, and it did today,”Gant said. “(Coquitlam)didn’t cause us anythingto worry about, but in theend, that’s what it’s allabout.”

The result was anunfortunate ending to asuccessful association forthe United squad.

Bruce and co-coachJodene Gant took over theUnited team as u-15s andguided the girls to back-to-back Coastal A Cups atu-16 and u-17, including aprovincial title last seasonand a silver medal at theu-18 club nationals.

“I’m going to missthe girls, big time,” Gantsaid, adding with the endcomes a new beginning inthe girls’ soccer careers.

As for the Gants, it’stime for a break from soc-cer, Bruce admitted. “Itwould have to be a prettyspecial team for me toreturn,” he said.
