I don’t notice it, but my girlfriend says my breath is so bad she wants to break up with me. What can I do? You are not alone; many people are unaware of their own bad breath. Some foods may cause temporary bad breath but a persistent problem generally has other causes. And while certain problems in your lungs, blood and GI tract can cause persistent bad breath, over 90% of problems originate in the mouth. Several factors including medications, dry mouth, dieting, snoring, age, hormonal changes, and even stress can affect the oral environment causing more bacterial growth and bad breath. Proper brushing and flossing will eliminate many odors by removing bacteria and food debris around the teeth. The roof of the mouth, cheeks and tongue should be brushed as well. A tongue scraper is even more effective for removing the bacteria from the back of the tongue where the most offensive odors are often produced. While mouth rinses can eliminate some bacteria, they generally only mask odors and are only effective for 30 to 60 minutes. Because bad breath may also be caused by gum disease and tooth decay as well other infections and diseases, it is important to seek your dentist’s advice regarding any persistent problems with mouth odors.

How can I stay on track with my new year’s resolutions to be healthier in 2018? Start with small steps! Often people start the New Year with so much motivation they try to implement too many lifestyle changes at once. This often ends up in New Years Resolutions failing before you turn the page on your calendar. If you’rE starting an exercise program, set a realistic goal of how often you will exercise. Don’t over do it in January only to stop going in February. Fitness is a lifestyle made up of many good healthy decisions, not a rush to drop 10lbs by the end of the first week of January. If you alter your normal behavior radically you are more likely to derail your good intentions. If you want to lose weight, focus on your diet. Try a simple change like replacing processed foods with healthier whole foods. It may seem like a slow and simple start but in the long run small changes make it easier for you to stick to you new habits and increase the odds for longterm success. Lastly, find ways to renew your motivation. Read inspirational quotes, subscribe to a fitness magazine, enlist a small group of like-minded friends for support, or hire a personal trainer to help keep you plugging along.
On Christmas Eve Day, residents of Beikirch Care Center in Brockport received gifts from Santa Paws, also known as Jesse the Therapy Dog. Julia A. Gibbs holds her present, a white poodle which looks a little like Jesse. Jesse and his mommy, Dianne Hickerson, visit the residents of Beikirch every week. Photo by Dianne Hickerson.

Since the Canal Corporation began their Vegetation Management Plan along the banks of the canal, some neighborhoods are being frequented by one or more fox, who have been impacted by work in their habitat. Please report any problems associated with the fox to Mayor Blackman or Deputy Clerk Erica Linden at 637-5300. Residents should feed pets indoors only and supervise pets when outside. Flashing lights, outdoor radios, and
ammonia-soaked rags will act as deterrents to both fox and prey. All garbage and compost containers should be covered and secure. Be advised that feeding wildlife, such as birds and squirrels, will encourage the fox to remain in the area. The Village of Brockport will provide information and updates on their website at www.brockportny.org and their Facebook Page.

Appreciations to all supporting Brockport Rotary pie sale - Selling pies from the Special Touch Bakery of the Holy Childhood School was the idea of Doris Russo, Brockport Rotary Club secretary. She is shown in photo handing a pie to Rotarian Gene Wood. The other photo shows Annie Crane, village trustee and employee of the Lift Bridge Book Shop, receiving her pecan pie. The pies were very large with a large amount of filing. The club has yet to decide if they will continue this activity next year, but it also has the advantage of supporting the bakery which employs many special needs individuals. The profits are going to Camp Haccamo, where a number of young people with special needs from our community attend summer camp each year. Provided photos.

Thank You On behalf of the Salvation Army I would like to thank all of the volunteers who rang for me at the Tops in Hamlin this Christmas Season. I would also like to thank Tops in Hamlin for letting us ring in their store again this year. Lastly, I would like to thank the community for their great support of this worthy cause. Because of everyone’s help we were able to raise more than we did last year, which a great portion will be used to help those in need in our community. Again, thanks everyone. See you next year!

This crew of hardcore waterfowlers braved the single digits for a great late season hunt his past Tuesday (l to r) Drew Brown, Joel Hendrick, Genny, Dylan Makovec and Mark Makovec. Provided photo.
Late season waterfowl hunting (The sequel) by T.R. Hendrick Well, judging by the tsunami of Christmas car commercials dominating television I’m sure Santa brought each of you brand-new cars this year … right. Seriously, is there anybody you know who actually gives someone a car for Christmas? You can tune in any television channel and there they are, trying to make you think that everybody gets a car for Christmas. Sorry, but I really needed to get that off my chest. When we last left our hero, he had just survived something totally moronic. He (I) had just about drowned himself and his buddy on Lake Ontario in January while trying to shoot a few diver ducks which, ironically, are terrible table fare. Many of the diver variety of ducks dive under the water for their food; their diet consists of crustaceans and tiny minnows that make their meat taste very gamey. The late season waterfowler hunters are a wild bunch. There isn’t much they won’t do to shoot a duck or a goose. You could argue that they are even crazier than ice fishermen when it comes to their willingness to brave ferocious elements and chance their safety. A perfect example was hunters that were out during this past first week of the second half of the waterfowl season … in single digit temperatures. In the brutal cold I saw hunters in boats out in the middle of the Cayuga Lake and, I’m sure, there were hunters in the other Finger Lakes boat blinds as well. We were able to hunt Cayuga Lake from shore this week with good success, but my son’s lab got so cold we had to put her in front of our portable heater for a good while to get her happy again. After opening day, which was this past Tuesday, December 26, the late season ducks get educated very quickly. Once they get shot at a few times, they become spooky and hard to decoy. It’s then a good time to make a switch to field goose hunting. The goose hunting around New York State is fantastic at this time of year. With the weather so cold, geese get concentrated in certain areas where they have access to water that isn’t frozen to roost on at night and fields where they can still get at some feed during the day. The nice thing about goose hunting in January is that you usually don’t have to be on water. All you have to do is lay in the snow for four or five hours, that’s much saner. With the weather as cold as it was last week, most of the area geese have moved to the Finger Lakes area and are feeding in the surrounding corn fields. There is a state run co-op on the east side of Cayuga Lake with roughly 30 goose fields and a couple of water blinds. The local landowners have these open for hunting with the agreement that the state oversees all the hunting (http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/71870.html). That area has thousands of geese using it now because on the north end of the lake is Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. When the weather is cold enough to freeze Montezuma’s marshes, it pushes tens of thousands of ducks and geese off the refuge and south down onto Cayuga Lake where they have open water to roost on and many corn fields surrounding the Finger Lake. If you want to DYI hunt and be successful, you need to scout. It is the absolute number one key to all successful waterfowl hunts, but especially on late season geese. Luckily for me I have a son who is an expert at this. I swear that the kid can find geese in a desert. It might possibly have something to do with me throwing a live goose into his crib when he was a baby. He now chases geese with a vengeance that borders on obsession. The snag is that once you find the birds, you have to get permission to hunt that area, and figuring out who owns what is when it gets tough. There are very few large farms in this area and it seems that most fields are owned by one person and farmed by another, much larger farming operation. Small working farms are almost extinct. My son Joel puts in a ton of wheel time and with the help of the new mapping apps that show the property boundaries and landowners’ addresses, he usually finds a good honker field to hunt when we need one. The hunting apps are the greatest thing to happen to the freelance waterfowler since the lay-out blind. With app in
hand once you find the field the geese are using, the web site will not only show you the property lines but also the address of the landowner. Even a whitehead like myself can appreciate this technology. It’s then just a matter of dodging a farm dog or two and knocking on a few doors to get a yes. Now that deer season is over, it is much easier to get a yes from property owners to hunt geese. It can be feast or famine during this late season waterfowling. You will either shoot your limit or be shut out completely; but when it works it can be the best hunting of the season. Just beware during the single digit cold temperatures, especially if there is water involved. If you are new to the sport I suggest you find an experienced waterfowler and beg your way in on a hunt. Volunteer that you will carry all the decoys, boats, motors, blinds, mojo decoys, heaters, guns and shells down to the shore blind and I’d bet they let you join them. The season only remains open until January 14 so grab every piece of warm clothing you own to get out there and run with the hard core waterfowlers. But be careful, you could get hooked if you don’t freeze first! Provided information

by Warren Kozireski Churchville-Chili rallied back from 18 points down in the first half and from 16 down in the fourth quarter, but eventually fell to NW-Prep 61-60 in boy’s basketball. The Saints managed just nine points of offense in the first quarter, but a 10-0 highlighted by a pair of free throws by Dennis Swetz, a three-pointer from Fidel Brock, a drive and free throw by Corey Powell and a runner from Griffin Stella started a rally that had them down by only six at the half. The start of the second half was the Powell show with three consecutive baskets to cut the lead to just two points before the Panthers ended the third quarter on a 21-8 run to extend their lead back to 16. The Saints pressure defense held the Panthers off the scoreboard for the final three minutes of regulation while the offense received consecutive field goals from Eric Lewis, free throws and put-back by Powell and a lay-up by Stella after a great feed from Lewis. That again cut the NW-Prep lead to 61-60 with 32 seconds remaining, but the Saints couldn’t convert of their final two possessions. Powell led the Saints with 16 points and added six rebounds. Stella and Marcellus James each added 13 points while Lewis finished with 11 points and six boards for the 2-5 Saints.

6 Hamlin-Clarkson Herald and Suburban News West Edition - December 31, 2017
Opinion/Comments Canal Corp’s “Vegetation Management” project should be no different on east side than in Brockport tions. Subsequently the town supervisors, along with the Brighton town supervisor, held an evening town hall meeting with the public and the press but not the Canal Corp in attendance. That second meeting is where the information reported in the news came from.
An article in the local paper on December 19 reported, “Two state agencies overseeing a $2.6 million Erie Canal project that calls for the clear-cutting of trees and brush along embankments have agreed to delay work until February in Brighton, Perinton and Pittsford and are willing to compromise on how much work is done.” Given the work that has already been done in Brockport, that article prompted a conference call with the Canal Corp on December 21. I spoke with Dave Mellen, Director of Construction Management, and Jackie Schillinger, Director of Communications, explaining that the way things appeared here, Brockport and Orleans County had taken the hit for the more prosperous east side, who were getting what everyone along the canal had wanted by forestalling the project and securing compromises. According to the Canal Corp, that is not the case. Canal Corp personnel met with the town supervisors of Pittsford and Perinton, and Senator Funke in a private meeting, explaining basically what they told Brockport residents at a November 8 meeting, and answering ques-
Here’s what the Canal Corp reiterated to me: 1. The project is on hold simply because of the weather and will resume when conditions improve. The contractor’s schedule is to have all cutting completed by March 31, and all small brush removed by June 30. 2. The only compromises will be, as they were here, small ones with individual property owners. 3. The dominant thinking across the nation is that trees don’t belong on earthen dams, which is what the canal embankments are. “We are 100 percent committed to doing what we are doing and that will be no different on the east side of Rochester.” 4. There will be two public meetings on the east side with the Canal Corp, January 17, 6 to 8 p.m. Perinton
Community Center and January 18, 6 to 8 p.m., PittsfordMendon High School Auditorium. 5. The Canal Corp will return to Brockport for a public meeting before phase 2 (stump removal - winter of 2018) occurs. 6.If residents have further questions and concerns, they should contact Dave Mellen (david.mellen@canals. ny.gov). I hope, given this latest development, that the Canal Corp is learning how to improve public relations and communication. Brockport residents, and especially property owners whose properties border the north bank of the canal, should prepare well, with questions, concerns, and any requests regarding remediation assistance in advance of the phase 2 meeting in Brockport. I am happy to be of assistance in this endeavor. Margay Blackman Mayor of Brockport

Spencerport Chamber Awards Banquet January 26 The Spencerport Area Chamber of Commerce will recognize 2017 Awards Winners at its Annual Banquet Friday, January 26, 2018 at Whittier Road Party House, 88 Whittier Road, Rochester. Cocktails/music/networking at 6 p.m. Dinner, awards and speaker follow at 7 p.m. Silent Auction benefits – Homesteads for Hope & Monroe 2–Orleans BOCES. Chamber Officers /Board of Directors invite the community to enjoy the Annual Banquet evening. Keynote Speaker will be Monroe County Sheriff Todd Baxter. Jenny Rae Brongo is recipient of the 2017 Clyde W. Carter Citizen of the Year Award. Jenny Rae Brongo and her mother, Luann, founded Homesteads for Hope, a Community Farm along the Erie Canal in Ogden. Based on family experiences raising Chuckie, their autistic brother and son, they saw the need for “a place to belong” that would include young adults of all abilities. Determined, Jenny Rae championed opportunities, gaining recognition and support. In 2014 funding came via charitable donations, local and national. In 2016 it was possible to purchase a 55-acre property that today represents Phase I, the Forever Homestead, followed by Phase II, Farm Expansion, and Phase III, Homesteads Village. The Brongo story - with Chuckie as Founding Farmer, is a story of his sister Jenny Rae’s love - within a caring community.
State Farm Insurance, 409 South Union Street, Spencerport, will receive the 2017 Joyce A. Lobene Business Person/s of the Year Award. Dominic Agostini, and the State Farm Team, help customers/neighbors with an array of insurance needs: from auto, home and life to commercial and financial/banking. After graduation from Niagara University, Dominic Agostini anchored his State Farm location here, eventually purchasing the building. Later Kiwanis Club President, Dominic supports the Easter Egg Hunt, Canal Days, Ogden Parks & Recreation annual Pineway Ponds 5K Race/Walk, and serves on the Town of Ogden Conservation Board. The Dominic & Amy Agostini family resides nearby with their three children who attend Spencerport schools. Brindle Haus Brewing, owners John and Kristine Boothe and Tom and Sarah DiPietro, will receive the 2017 Civic Beautification Award. The creatively renovated building is at 377 South Union Street, Spencerport. Investing blood, sweat and tears, the friends transformed a vacant doctor’s office into a casual, fun, relaxed tasting room with big-screen TV (of course) – and viewable brewery. These young parents even thought of a children’s area. The name reflects Pit Bull rescue, so a dog or two might stop by for a drink (of water). Over many months, following code guidelines and inspection regulations, barn brewing moved from passionate hobby to winning business. “Are
you thirsty, Friends?” Lots of parking shared with Bob’s Pool & Garden & Fowler’s Liquor Store. New Award in 2017! Member of the Year, Glynne Schultz, Spencerport Professional Building. Glynne Schultz shares innovative ideas for the future, plans “behind the scenes” and is a Volunteer at Community Events. Find Glynne in creepy costume at the October Ghost Walk.

Families filled the Clarkson Courthouse building Friday, December 22, for the annual “Umpteenth” holiday party. Supervisor Paul Kimball acted as master of ceremonies - as he has done for 34 years - and read “The Night Before Christmas” for children and their families in attendance. The story was followed by a visit from Old St. Nick himself and all children in attendance had the opportunity to visit with Santa and receive a gift. Santa also offered any adults in attendance the opportunity to express their Christmas wishes before he headed out to prepare for his annual Christmas Eve trek. He reminded the children about the real meaning of Christmas and the significance of gifts which are shared at holiday time. “Gifts symbolize our love for each other,” Santa said. Kimball said the “Umpteenth” Christmas party originated decades ago following WWII and was hosted by the Clarkson Republican Women for many years until the town took over organizing the celebration in 1984. The event also included a pinata and refreshments.
