NEWBURYPORT – Th e Newburyport CLEANtech Center recently brought two infl uential state legislators to hear from the Massachusetts Solar Energy Industry Association why solar projects are on hold in a state that has prided itself on being a leader in creating renewable energy.

Th e message from the solar energy industry leaders to state Sen. Bruce Tarr, R-Gloucester, and state Rep. Leonard Mirra, R-West Newbury, was not entirely dire, but a long way from optimistic. Tarr is the minority leader, and Mirra

For the meeting at the CLEANtech center, the goal, according to the center's CEO Bob O'Brien, was to persuade the legislators to “contact either Mark Silvia at DoER, (the Department of Energy Resources), or (Energy and Environmental Aff airs) Secretary (Rick) Sullivan and ask that they expedite the approval process to reinvigorate the industry, create jobs, and positively impact the environment.”

protection. But the piece of paper did not stop her husband from carrying out his threat, then killing himself, while their daughter was upstairs on the telephone with 911.

Her death triggered a movement in this state that continues today. Th e now nationally recognized Geiger Center, following Giunta-Cotter's murder, created a series of domestic violence high-risk teams that include police offi cers and counselors.

Th ese teams, which are heralded as a national model, intervene in domestic violence disputes. Th ey off er a combination of the threat of incarceration, education and good advice, to help men and women deal with violence in the home.

“Th is evidence demonstrates that the escalation of domestic violence to lethal levels follow predictable patterns,” says a new report from the crisis center. “Th e model strives to interrupt this pattern of escalation by focusing equally on victim safety and off ender accountability.”

Th e teams use a three-pronged approach that includes early identifi cation of high risk off enders through risk assessment, individualized, multidisciplinary responses to high risk cases and coordinated monitoring and containment of off enders.

As a result of the work of the center and the teams, there has not been another domestic

Legislators Asked to Help North Shore Solar Projects Estimates are that the net

benefi t of building solar projects is between $100 million and $500 million for the state's economy.

And it creates a large homegrown industry. Instead of exporting dollars for energy as is currently done, solar projects keep two thirds to three quarters of the revenues at home.

“It is clear that the program is a good investment,” said Dan Berwyck, chairman of the solar industry association and vice president of Borrego Solar Systems in Lowell.

In Massachusetts there is some construction work continuing as the approved projects from the fi rst round of the state's Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SREC) program are completed, Berwyck said.

But unless two state departments, DoER and the Department of Public Utilities, and possibly the legislature move ahead quickly, that progress will halt in mid-2014. Th at is in spite of Gov. Deval Patrick's announced program to build another 1,600 megawatts of solar power in the state.

Th e companies needed to build much of that capacity are standing “fl atfooted” right now, Berwyck said.

To get the industry moving again, two things need to happen. DoER needs to issue the new regulations for what is being called SREC 2. And the legislature or the DPU needs to impose a new, higher net metering cap on the utility companies.

Berwyck believes the new draft regulations will be issued by DoER in a few weeks, certainly by the fi rst of the year. Th at is critical to the re-invigorating the solar energy industry, Berwyck said.

Th ose regulations will set up the operating rules for companies to bid on new solar energy projects. It will also give cities and towns guidelines on incentives for installing solar panels on residential and commercial rooftops and on available land.

Equally important is getting the DPU to expand the net metering program with the utilities like National Grid to increase their cap. Net metering is how owners of solar panels get paid if they feed power into the grid.

Jeanne Geiger Leads the FightAgainst Domestic Violence

Th e utilities have reached the cap previously set on the amount of net metering that would be required. Much of National Grid's net metering projects were used for solar farms in central and western Massachusetts.

O'Brien wants the legislature or DPU to require National Grid to allow more net metering projects in northeastern Massachusetts. “NGrid has reportedly already achieved their Net Metering cap development eff orts, unfortunately to those of us in NEMA, in other parts of the state,” O'Brien wrote in a follow up memo.

For projects that consume all the electricity generated on site, such as on a rooftop for a house or a small commercial operation, net metering is less important. Th ey don't feed power into the grid, but use the electricity themselves.

But for other projects, such as municipal landfi lls, net metering incentives are essential to making these projects fi nancially viable. To build projects like solar farms that feed electricity into the grid, the net metering cap would have to be increased.

violence-related murder in the area. In the previous 10 years, there were eight domestic violence-related deaths.

“We knock on wood a lot,” said Suzanne Dubus, the center's chief executive offi cer. “We are a little superstitious around here.”

But the zero homicide rate is far from just good luck. Th e Geiger Center's programs combating domestic violence has reduced the incidents almost to a trickle.

Of 129 cases handled by the crisis teams in recent years, only 9 percent of the victims have been re-assaulted.

Th e tightly run, unifi ed system “has been a game changer,” Dubus said.

Last week, Atty. Gen. Martha Coakley and House Speaker Robert DeLeo visited the center's Amesbury operations to praise the center's work and advocate for tougher laws and replication of the high-risk team model across the state. Th ere are 24 other programs in the state.

Coakley and DeLeo were joined by several other local legislators, including state Sen. Kathleen Ives, who is backing new legislation to strengthen

domestic abuse laws.Last week, the Senate

unanimously passed a bill that would make strangulation a felony off ense.

Dubus said the tougher penalty for strangulation is critical because so many men use their hands to choke their wives or partners. “Th ey literally hold the person's life in their hands,” she said. And they often tell the victims that.

Th e legislation also protects the employment rights of domestic violence victims and increases penalties for restraining order violations. Th e bill also eliminates a provision that allows courts to dismiss charges if both parties agree in a written statement to drop charges.

Working in partnership with with the Maryland Network Against Domestic Violence and Dr. Jacquelyn Campbell of Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing, the center is implementing a federally funded program to provide training and technical assistance to 12 communities across the country that are striving to end domestic violence homicide.

Locally the center is launching a new program to educate high

school students in Amesbury, Newburyport, Pentucket and Triton schools about domestic violence. Th e program, which begins this month with training for teachers, will identify 25 student leaders in each high school to help build a program that encourages fellow students not to be bystanders. Th e program will educate students about gender equity, teaching girls to be less passive and boys to understand their roles.

Dubus said the state pays about 30 percent of the total costs of the crisis center's programs. Th at requires her and her colleagues to spend a lot of time raising money, usually about $1 million a year from private donors.

“If we could do less fundraising, there would be more time to help victims,” Dubus said.

She is hoping the legislature will not only pass new laws against domestic violence but will also increase funding for programs like the crisis center.

To learn more about the crisis center or to make a donation, visit its web site at www.jeannegeigercrisiscenter.org. To volunteer to help, call Laura at 978-465-0999. Th e hotline for abuse victims is 978-388-1888.

Th ere was a technical issue that occurred at the start of the taping which included the reading of the Attorney General’s statement: “Over the past year, the Attorney General’s Offi ce has conducted an investigation of the construction of the Plum Island Utility Services Project. Th e AG’s investigation has identifi ed signifi cant construction defects, in particular, the failure to guard against corrosion. Th e Department of Environmental Protection, working closely with the AG, has found no evidence to date that the identifi ed construction defects pose any risk to public health. Our offi ce is working toward a legal resolution to correct the problems with the Plum Island utility system.

Clean the gutters. Trapped water can freeze then thaw, which could be destructive not only to the gutters themselves but to the adjoining roof as well. Inspect the roof. Look for damaged or loose shingles, as well as damaged mortar around the chimney. By looking for irregularities you can prevent an ice dam and expensive repairs. Inspect exterior walls and window sills. Check walls and window sills for damage such as cracks, gaps, loose or crumbling mortar, along with splitting and decaying wood. Replace trim now instead of waiting for Spring. Caulk exterior joints around windows and doors, which helps keep the home weather tight and helps to lower heating bills. Maintain steps and handrails. Repair broken steps and secure loose banisters. Broken steps are easily hidden beneath snow, which could cause a dangerous fall. Cover any bushes for the winter. You can prevent heavy snow damage on your most valuable landscaping by wrapping each one. Pools need to be closed, sprinkler systems and outside faucets should be shut off (from inside house) to prevent cracked pipes and damaged pool liners.

Yes, I know the title of this article has nothing to do with real estate but I am still in a state of shock that the Red Sox won the World Series last night (also a little sleep deprived). Can you believe we live in a region with 8 Championship teams in the last 11 years! No wonder all other cities are envious. If you are crazy enough to move out of the area this winter here are some tips to get your home ready.

Th ese suggestions will help your home show better to prospective buyers. Just as importantly it will show the home inspector that these issues have been taken care of and won’t need to be renegotiated.

Th ese 9 maintenance steps can help you be prepared and safe this winter (stopped at 9 in tribute to our Boston Red Sox!):

Check the heating system. Check the fi lter, pilot light and burners in a system fueled by gas or oil. If the heating system hasn’t been serviced already this year call your oil or gas technician. Fireplaces and wood burning stoves should also be cleaned and serviced every year. Clean ducts in the heating system. Clean and vacuum dust from vents, baseboard heaters and cold air returns. Test fi re and carbon monoxide detectors. Are your alarms more than 10 years old? If so you should think about replacing them.

1.

2.

3.

Planning ahead in order to complete these items will save you a lot of time and money. Your home will look stronger to a buyer and come through a home inspection with fl ying colors.

Winters in New England can be very harsh, but just think in a few months like the Red Sox we could have a New England Patriots Championship to celebrate!

more anti-bacterial, and it is the removal of plaque manually that is most important, even without toothpaste.

With regards to electric toothbrushes, it insinuates that “basic” and “cheap” ($7) models are as effective as more expensive models. This is false. Although you do not have to buy the most expensive model available, there is a huge difference in effectiveness between a $7 electric toothbrush and a $70 one. It also says, “Only floss can reach below the gum-line.” Proper toothbrush technique gets below the gum-line on two sides of the teeth and floss is essential for only the two sides between the teeth.

For combating bad breath, the first suggestion is to “brush your tongue.” Although it mentions the use of a tongue scraper, it only states the use of this device if your toothbrush makes you gag. The fact of the matter is that a tongue scraper is 100% more effective in removal of the nasty bacteria on your tongue. If the toothbrush makes you gag so will the tongue scraper. One trick is to scrape your tongue while you are exhaling.

An article entitled, “21st-Century Dentistry” highlights the use of lasers in treating gum problems. The beginning of the column gets you revved-up to believe that this is the best thing since sliced bread, but the end of the article states differently. “It is unlikely to fully replace traditional gum surgery

anytime soon. The laser therapy isn’t demonstrably superior to surgery, researchers recently reported in the Journal of Periodontology.”

This column also states that “advances in miniature dental implants are making the replacement of decayed or missing teeth with dentures more palatable.” Other than stating that they are less expensive, it does nothing to explain that the mini-implants are inferior to conventional dental implants and are generally only used to secure dentures and not replace actual teeth.

To be continued…….Dr. St. Clair maintains a private

dental practice in Rowley and Newburyport dedicated to health-centered family dentistry. If there are certain topics you would like to see written about or questions you have please email them to him at [email protected]. You can view all previously written columns at www.jpeterstclairdentistry.com/blog.

A recent U.S. News & World Report featured seven pages of information on dentistry. Although I was surprised that most of the information was accurate, there were a few things that I felt needed clarification.

The first article highlights the fact that 75% of adults have some form of periodontal disease. This is true. It also mentions many of the known facts with regards to gum disease and systemic health. One of those is that uncorrected gum problems can make it more difficult for diabetics to control their blood sugar and in turn worsen their gum problems. This is also true. However, some of the preventive and treatment information was a bit off base.

“Scrubbing with fluoride toothpaste robs oral bacteria of sustenance.” This is true to some extent but the term “scrubbing” is not really accurate. Proper brushing technique with either a very soft manual toothbrush or good electric toothbrush is a more accurate description. Also, fluoride, in and of itself, is not anti-bacterial. There are other ingredients in toothpastes with and without fluoride that are

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You enjoy the attention early in the week, but it might be a good idea to opt for some privacy by week's end so that you can have more time to consider an upcoming decision.TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You unearthed

some surprising facts. Now you need to consider how to use them to your advantage. Meanwhile, it might be best to keep what you've learned secret for now.GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A comment by a colleague piques your curiosity to know more. Best advice: You'll fi nd people more likely to off er information if you're discreet when making your inquiries.CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your energy levels begin to rise by midweek. Th is allows you to catch up with your heavy workload and still have plenty of get-up-and-go to go out on the town this weekend.LEO (July 23 to August 22) You're probably roaring your head off about a perceived slight from a longtime critic. Ignore it. Th at person might just be trying to goad you into doing something you might later regret.VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Th e early part of the week is open to spontaneity. Th en it's time to settle into your usual routine to get all your tasks done. A personal situation could require more attention from you.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) A meeting of the minds on a workplace project might well develop into something more personal for Librans looking for romance. Aspects are also favorable for platonic relationships.SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) A more-positive mood might be diffi cult to assume in light of a recent problem involving the health of someone special. But by week's end, your emotional barometer should start to rise.SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) Look for a changed attitude from a former adversary once he or she realizes you have your colleagues' full support. Now you can refocus your energies on that workplace project.CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Th is time, a diff erence of opinion might not be resolved in your favor. But be patient. It ultimately could all work out to your advantage, as new information begins to develop.AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A tug of war develops between the artistic Aquarian's creative aspect and his or her practical side. Best advice: Prioritize your schedule so you can give appropriate time to both.PISCES (February 19 to March 20) You could be entering a career phase awash with job-related demands. But avoid being swamped by the overfl ow and, instead, keep treading water as you deal with demands one by one.BORN THIS WEEK: You are an exceptionally loyal person, and you're respected for your ability to keep the secrets entrusted to you.
