NEWBURYPORT 

– Don’t be surprised 

this week to find 

some exciting new 

books lying about 

the city on benches 

in parks, along the 

waterfront and in 

public buildings 

like City Hall. Feel 

free to take them, 

they are for you 

to read and maybe 

pass on to others. 

LARGEST DISTRIBUTION ACROSS THE NORTH SHORE OF MA & COASTAL NH 

Last Sunday, 

a dozen 

Newburyport High 

School students, 

handpicked by 

faculty advisor 

Kenneth Cole and 

senior Aidan Mone, 

placed about 50 books, written by 

authors coming later this month 

to participate in the 14th annual 

Newburyport Literary Festival. 

Called “Books on the Loose,” 

the free book promotion is the 

brainchild of publicist Skye 

Wentworth. 

“Congratulations!” the note 

with the free book states. “You’ve 

caught a Book on the Loose. We’re 

all about celebrating literature, 

sharing with others and placing 

books in unusual places for the 

Finder to read and to keep. It’s all 

yours.” 

The Finders are invited to join 

the Books on the Loose Facebook 

Group “and let us know where you 

found the book and/or how much 

you are enjoying it.” The group 

can be found at www.facebook. 

com/groups/BooksontheLoose.

Literary Festival, which attracts 

an estimated 5,000 lovers of 

poetry, novels and histories, will 

take place in downtown churches, 

community houses and, of course, 

the Firehouse Theater this April 26 

and 27. 

The festival, which is using the 

tag line Open a Book, Open Your 

World, launches a weekend of 

learning and fun on Friday night. 

The opening ceremony at 6 p.m. 

at the Firehouse Center for the 

Arts will feature a conversation 

between Elaine Weiss, author of 

The Woman’s Hour: The Great 

Fight to Win the Vote, and author 

Linda Hirshman. 

Weiss, the festival’s 2019 honoree, 

is an award-winning journalist 

whose writings have been featured 

in The Atlantic, Harper’s, New 

York Times and Boston Globe.

Books on the Loose 

outlandish an idea it 

seemed to some at the time 

– this concept of women 

gaining the right to vote in 

elections. In one of history’s 

great thrillers, the battle to 

ratify the 19th Amendment, 

almost a hundred years ago, 

came down to single vote, 

a single male legislator and 

— crucially — a single 

dear, darling, determined 

mother,” the festival web 

site states. 

In her stirring treatment of 

winning suffrage in America 

Weiss details the history, 

culture and politics that 

made the quest so difficult, 

including the racism that 

came very close to defeating 

the cause. 

Margot Lee Shetterly, 

author of the bestseller 

Hidden Figures, wrote 

of Weiss’s book,“Anyone 

interested in the history of 

our country’s ongoing fight 

to put its founding values 

into practice – as well as 

those seeking the roots of 

current political fault lines 

– would be well-served by 

picking up Elaine Weiss’s 

The Woman’s Hour.” 

Those attending the 

opening ceremony are 

encouraged to wear a yellow 

rose, the symbol of women’s 

suffrage. 

After the opening 

ceremony, the festival moves 

to one of its signature events, 

Dinner with Authors, at 

7:30 p.m. at the Masonic 

Center, 31 Green St. For 

$50, participants dine and 

enjoy conversations with 

many of the authors. Tickets 

can be purchased on line at 

newburyportliteraryfestival. 

org or by sending a check to 

the Newburyport Literary 

Association, Box 268, 

Newburyport, MA 01950. 

The popular Breakfast with 

the Poets starts Saturday 

morning at 8:30 a.m. at 

the Central Congregational 

Church with David 

Davis, A.M. Juster, Jose 

Edmundo Ocampo Reyes, 

Toni Treadway and Anton 

Yakovlev. 

Throughout the day on 

Saturday, the festival will 

feature a wide range of 

authors and poets, including 

authors Russell Banks, Joyce 

Maynard, Rhina Espaillat, 

Andre Dubus III, Nana 

Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, 

Elizabeth Elo, Eleanor 

Lipman and Hank Phillippi 

Ryan. 

The short story will be 

highlighted in several 

sessions, including one with 

Banks at 10:30 a.m. at the 

Old South Church. 

“Every time we mention 

that Russell Banks is coming 

this year, people come out of 

the woodwork to talk about 

him,” said festival founder 

Vicki Henrickson. 

Banks will read from his 

short story collection, The 

Angel on the Roof and 

A Permanent Member of 

the Family. A two-time 

finalist for the Pulitzer 

Prize, Banks will join Steve 

Yarbrough, author of The 

Unmade World and The 

Oxygen Man, to discuss the 

difference between writing 

short stories and novels 

and the process of adapting 

short stories to film. 

Also Andre Dubus III and 

Peter Orner will discuss 

the writings of Dubus’ 

father, Andre II, and how it 

influenced their thoughts. 

Their presentation will be 

at 2:30 p.m. at the Central 

Congregational Church. 

At 1 p.m. in the same 

venue, Dubus will also 

discuss his latest work, Gone 

So Long. 

The closing ceremony will 

be “something different,” 

according to the event web 

site. Representatives from 

local book clubs will discuss 

the genesis of their clubs 

and some of the favorite 

books they have read over 

the years. One of the clubs 

is celebrating its 100th 

anniversary this year. 

Founding sponsors of the 

festival are the Newburyport 

Bank and the Institution 

for Savings. Host sponsors 

are: Riley and Associates, 

Booked, Newburyport and 

Newbury Cultural Councils, 

Bradford & Bigelow, Book 

Rack, Jabberwocky and

son’s creativity for the recent 

diversification. In truth, 

Nunan has been evolving for 

decades. Opened in Saugus in 

1917 as a florist shop, Nunan 

was expanded by Flynn Sr. 

and Guerrini to become a 

garden center, nursery and 

landscaping business. It also 

rents plants and does interior 

plantscaping. 

Last fall, when Dave and 

Judy Marshall, owners of 

Knapp’s Greenhouses in 

West Newbury since 1965, 

wanted to sell, the Flynns 

made them an offer they 

liked. Knapp’s reopened, 

at 187 Main St. in West 

Newbury, with the Flynns 

as the new owners. They will

Three Blocks East - April 13 

The Byfield Community Arts Center Random Music 

Series is pleased to bring Three Blocks East to the 

stage on April 13. They describe themselves as “just a 

bunch of small town kids” but don’t let that fool you! 

These guys put together some pretty awesome rock 

and roll sounds. Clearly they are enjoying themselves 

and you will as well. Three Blocks East will be joined 

by special guests Steve Caraway and Jazz Abbott. 

Doors open at 7:00 and music starts at 7:30 and 

admission is $15 at the door. The Cat Cafe serves

the N logo for Nunan. 

Nunan diversification 

is a growing trend in the 

industry. Known as agritourism, 

many farms and 

garden centers are looking 

for new sources of revenues 

to supplement the slow 

months. Many have created 

corn mazes and fruit picking 

to draw in more customers. 

The Garden Golf center 

has been a hit. Designed 

with no dinosaurs or 

windmills, the Nunan course 

is both a chance for some 

recreation and a shopping 

opportunity. 

“It is a peaceful walk 

through beautiful gardens 

as you enjoy your game of 

mini golf,” the Nunan web 

site states.

As Plovers Return, Refuge Beach Closed 

The ocean beach at Parker River National Wildlife Refuge will be 

closed to all public access beginning on Monday, April 1st in order 

to provide undisturbed nesting habitat for the piping plover, a small 

shorebird that is listed as threatened on the federal endangered 

species list. A small section of beach, accessible via the parking lot 

1 boardwalk, will remain open to the public. Sections of the beach 

may be reopened in late July if it is determined that such action will 

not be detrimental to the plovers’ nesting success. Generally, the 

entire beach is reopened by mid to late August after the last plover 

chick fledges. 

Visitors are reminded that other areas of the refuge will remain 

open including the Salt Pannes Wildlife Observation Area, North 

Pool Overlook, Hellcat Wildlife Observation Area and associated 

interpretive trail, Pines Trail, Stage Island Pool Observation Tower 

and Overlook and the Lot 5 boardwalk (which provides views of, but 

no access to, the beach). Due to the popularity of the refuge, vehicle 

capacity is periodically reached with a subsequent temporary closure. 

An early arrival helps visitors avoid this inconvenience. A daily fee 

of $5/vehicle, $2 walk-on or bicycle, remains in effect, with a $20 

annual pass also available. Also, other beaches are available in the 

area including those in Newbury and Newburyport on the northern 

end of Plum Island, Salisbury Beach State Reservation in Salisbury, 

and the beach at Crane Memorial Reservation in Ipswich.


Fifth Annual Conservation Film Festival April 12th – 14th 

Officials at the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge have announced details about the Fifth Annual 

Conservation Film Festival, which will take place Friday evening, April 12th thru Sunday afternoon, April 14th. 

The free public event will take place at the refuge’s visitor center and headquarters complex in Newburyport. A 

diverse selection of award-winning, conservation-related films from across the world will be presented on the big 

screen in the visitor center auditorium. This year’s attendees will further benefit from the recent installation of 

a new laser projector and surround sound system! 

Films that will be screened during the festival focus on a broad range of important and timely conservation 

topics. This year’s films include: 

• Lobster War: The Fight Over the World’s Richest Fishing Ground is about a climate-fueled conflict between 

the United States and Canada over waters that both countries have claimed since the end of the Revolutionary 

War. The disputed 277 square miles of sea, known as the Gray Zone, were traditionally fished by US 

lobstermen. But as the Gulf of Maine has warmed faster than nearly any other body of water on the planet, 

the area’s previously modest lobster population has surged. As a result, Canadians have begun to assert their 

sovereignty. 

• Love and Bananas: An Elephant Story: Independent Spirit and MTV nominated actress, Ashley Bell and a 

team of elephant rescuers, led by world renowned Asian elephant conservationist Sangdeaun Lek Chailert, 

embark on a daring 48-hour mission 500 miles across Thailand to rescue a 70-year old captive blind Asian 

elephant and bring her to freedom. “Love & Bananas: An Elephant Story” is a heartwarming and hopeful film 

that exposes the plight of Asian elephants and the people who work tirelessly to save them. 

• Saving Atlantis is the first documentary to take a deep dive into one of the most consequential issues of our 

time: the dramatic decline of global coral reef ecosystems and the impact on human populations that depend 

on them. Coral reefs are one of the world’s most diverse habitats. They are often called “the rainforests of the 

ocean,” but the rapid acceleration of coral bleaching events around the world is jeopardizing their future. 

• The Serengeti Rules won the prestigious ACFF “Green Fire” award. Beginning in the 1960s, a small band 

of young scientists headed out into the wilderness, driven by an insatiable curiosity about how nature works. 

Immersed in some of the most remote and spectacular places on Earth—from the majestic Serengeti to the 

Amazon jungle, from the Arctic Ocean to Pacific tide pools—they discovered a single set of rules that govern 

all life. 

• Bird of Prey: The Philippine Eagle is a bird of extremes. It’s the world’s largest and rarest eagle, found only in 

the Philippines. Fewer than 800 individuals remain today, and the future of these iconic raptors — and of an 

untold number of other species — is tied to the fate of the Philippines’ last fragments of old-growth forest. 

In 1977, world-renowned cinematographer Neil Rettig filmed the first images of the Philippine Eagle in the 

wild, transforming the bird into a national symbol. But today, with a rapidly expanding human population 

facing serious political, economic, and environmental turmoil, the eagle’s plight has fallen out of public 

consciousness. “Bird of Prey” follows Neil’s return to the Philippines as he embarks on a grueling expedition 

alongside a small but devoted group determined to protect the eagle. Together, they answer the question: 

What will it take to save a species from extinction? 

• The Vanishing Caribou Rainforest is a cinematic journey into the tragically threatened world of endangered 

mountain caribou, their home in the world’s largest remaining inland temperate rainforest, and the critical 

human choices that will ultimately decide the fate of this stunning ecosystem. With the failure of agencies in 

the U.S. and Canada to regulate industrial resource extraction effectively, honor the treaty rights of indigenous 

peoples, and protect the integrity of the natural systems of this region, this film gives voice to First Nations, 

scientists, foresters, conservationists, and recreationists attempting to 

chart a new path forward before it is too late. 

• High Tide in Dorchester is a film that encourages discussions and actions 

concerning sea level rise, erosion and climate change in Dorchester 

County, MD. The film creates a powerful, intimate story that looks at 

a worsening global threat through the lens of Chesapeake Bay’s most 

vulnerable county. 

All film festival screenings are free and open to the public. Seating in 

the visitor center auditorium is limited to 85 and will be filled on a first 

come, first served basis. A complete film festival schedule is available on 

the refuge web site: http://www.fws.gov/refuge/parker_river/. For further 

information, please contact the refuge at (978) 465-5753.

ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A 

suggestion from a colleague on how to 

work out a problem might not sit too 

well with you. But before you suspect 

his or her motives, why not just accept 

it as a friendly gesture? 

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) An 

associate might seek your counsel 

on a workplace dispute with another 

co-worker. Listen to what she or he has 

to say, but withhold advice until you’ve 

heard the other side of the story. 

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Use 

your Twin gifts for creativity and practicality 

to score points in landing an 

opportunity that could open doors to 

a new career. Someone returns after a 

long absence. 

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) 

Although things are pretty hectic 

through much of the week, some quiet 

time with loved ones helps restore 

balance. An unexpected visitor brings 

welcome news about a mutual friend. 

LEO (July 23 to August 22) Getting 

used to change isn’t always easy for 

the Big Cat. But make the adjustments 

gradually, and soon you’ll hardly 

remember when things were any different 

from how they are now. 

VIRGO (August 23 to September 

22) Continue to stay the course 

you’ve chosen, and avoid distractions 

that could throw you off track. Some 

knowledgeable folks are happy to provide 

guidance if you need it.

LIBRA (September 23 to October 

22) Although you earned plaudits 

from most co-workers for your recent 

stand on a workplace situation, you 

also raised the envy quotient among 

others. Tread carefully for now. 

SCORPIO (October 23 to November 

21) You feel more positive about 

that delayed project, and you’re ready 

to pick it up on a moment’s notice. 

However, you might need to re-motivate 

those who have since lost interest. 

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to 

December 21) Some welcome news 

should be coming your way. In the 

meantime, use that Sagittarius charm 

to convince some still-reluctant colleagues 

that your ideas have merit. 

CAPRICORN (December 22 to 

January 19) Don’t wait for a misunderstanding 

to work itself out. Instead, 

ask for a chance to explain the circumstances 

before those bruised feelings 

lead to an irreversible break. 

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 

18) A physical problem should be 

checked out in order to avoid it going 

from just being a nuisance to something 

more serious. Your social life 

takes an unexpected but not unwelcome 

turn. 

PISCES (February 19 to March 20) 

Yours might be the wisest sign in the 

Zodiac. But you still could benefit 

from the wisdom of a close friend who 

has suggestions on how to handle a 

perplexing personal problem.

for doing the right thing inspires others

Health & Wellness 

BY J. PETER ST. CLAIR, DMD 

In this age of reality TV and 

other unrealistic propaganda, 

many people, including 

teenagers, are making changes 

to improve their appearance. 

And for teenagers, physical 

appearance is an important 

element of peer pressure. 

When it comes to the desire 

for whiter teeth however, age 

does play a role. 

Whether teeth whitening is 

done by a dentist or with overthe-counter 

products, no one 

under the age of 14 should be 

whitening their teeth. Even 

though all the permanent 

teeth may be in by this age, 

teeth are still developing. 

Once the permanent teeth 

have erupted into the mouth, 

called active eruption, you 

may notice that the teeth 

look short. It takes time for 

the gum tissue to recede, 

called passive eruption, and 

the teeth to get to their final 

size. 

In some people, this passive 

eruption doesn’t completely 

happen and the teeth still 

look short. Sometimes this 

A recent newspaper story told of 

two senior women who were coaxed 

into an experiment e-filing their taxes 

on their cellphone and tablet. 

E-filing apparently is becoming 

more and more popular, as 126 

million people e-filed for the past tax 

year, and 85 million of those received 

faster direct deposit refunds because 

of it. 

Would I do this, e-file on a 

handheld electronic device? No, I 

would not. 

Brighter Smiles... 

AGE BEFORE BEAUTY 

is referred to as a “gummy” 

smile. There are many reasons 

for showing excess gum tissue 

and the solutions for that 

are a subject for a different 

column. 

However, if teeth are 

bleached prior to this passive 

eruption completely taking 

place, the teeth can end up 

being two-toned. Although 

this can usually be corrected, 

it is best to wait until the 

entire eruption process 

is completed. Once an 

adolescent has reached 15 or 

16, if a parent and their child 

decide that they would like 

the teeth to be whiter, they 

can discuss the options with 

their dentist. 

There are many different 

ways to whiten the teeth. 

Some of the over-the-counter 

products will work to some 

degree. They work especially 

well on young teeth or 

those that are more yellow. 

However, the safest and most 

effective way to whiten the 

teeth, especially teeth that are 

older or greyer, is under the 

supervision of a dentist. 

Many people will Google 

products they can buy over 

the internet to whiten their 

teeth. If you have ever done 

this, you know there are many 

products that are sold with 

the addition of an ultraviolet 

Senior Scene 

Filing Your Taxes on a Cellphone 

In all honesty, I did e-file once 

years ago, sending my information 

directly to the Internal Revenue 

Service with the push of a computer 

keyboard button. It was the only time 

in all these years that something went 

wrong, and the IRS didn’t receive all 

the numbers. Some months later 

I received mail from them saying I 

owed additional taxes. Once I ran 

the numbers again and called them 

on the phone, it was clear that one 

entry never made it across the wires. 

After I sent the paper version of the 

tax return, all was well, but it caused 

grief and took time to sort out. Now 

I only send paper versions done on 

a computer where I’m more certain 

of the security software, hardwired to 

the wall. 

light. Clinical studies show 

that this type of bleaching 

is no more effective than 

traditional whitening with 

trays and gel. The light may 

cause more dehydration in 

the teeth which will produce 

an appearance that the teeth 

are lighter, but this is usually 

not sustainable. 

My experience is that 

professional tray bleaching 

with properly made trays and 

proper technique is the most 

effective. Some patients will 

be able to achieve dramatic 

results in only a week of 

daily bleaching. Others may 

require longer periods of time 

to achieve the desired result. 

Advances in methods and 

materials with the whitening 

process have come a long way. 

There are predictable ways to 

lighten even the darkest teeth. 

There is nothing wrong with 

wanting lighter teeth.

com/blog. 

The specific reasons I won’t use a 

handheld electronic device to file my 

taxes are these: 1) Handheld devices 

usually don’t have adequate security 

software installed on them, and if 

installed, it’s not familiar to the user. 

2) If the device is hooked up via a 

home WiFi, the router connection 

might not be encrypted. If you don’t 

know the difference between WEP 

and WPA/WPA2, ask someone for 

help with your router to make sure 

you’re not on WEP, which can be 

cracked by someone walking by 

outside. 

We seniors are targets in so many 

instances already. Beware giving 

identity thieves another way to access 

your personal information.
