We hope you all have a great summer full of wonderful adventures! June Program - Betsy Gulotta, Conservation Project Manager and former professor of Biology at Nassau Community College, gave a very informative and interesting presentation about the Hempstead Plains. This was a program which the Central Park Historical Society cosponsored with the Bethpage Library. When I think of the Hempstead Plains I immediately think about the miles of farmland and fields of grasses, that at one time, was all that one saw as you traveled the Hempstead Turnpike from Farmingdaie to Hempstead. As I listened to the narrative by Betsy Gulotta, she brought back many wonderful memories of growing up in Farmingdaie surrounded by the same fields of grasses, meadows of wild flowers, berries, wild life and running brooks. All gave way in time to the development of homes, schools, and strip malls. Today, only about 80 acres remain of the original 60,000 acre prairie which, at one time, stretched from the Queens border to the Suffolk border. All a part of Long Island, a land that was carved out by the glaciers with the deposits of sand, silt, and clay giving way to the bluffs on the north shore, and the wide beaches, dunes and salt marshes of the south shore. A land that was home to the Native Americans, and the settlers who came in the 1600' s to the plains which provided a common pasture for sheep and cattle and later the land was tilled and farms developed. The area was ideal for horse racing and the first race tracks in our country were built. The military utilized this land, from the time of Revolutionary War militia encampments, to the development of Mitchel Field as a military base during World War II. the flat, treeless land was ideal for airfields which gave birth to The Cradle of Aviation with a great history of its own. Then the development of residential and commercial buildings, growth of communities such as: Plainview, Plainedge, Garden City, Floral Park and Levittown all were born out of the plains. As a result of development, suppression of wild fires, invasion of non- native species, the vegetation and wild life of the plains is endangered. The Friends of the Hempstead Plains, a not for profit organization, are dedicated to preserving, restoring and offering education programs about The Hempstead Plains. The grasses and plants they are trying to preserve, survive the hot dry summers requiring no fertilizer, are dominated by the prairie type of bunch grasses ( Turkey Foot Grass, Switchgrass, Indian Grass, Broomsedge, Little and Big Bluestem). There was Butterfly Weed, Milk Weed, Goldenrod, Blue- Eye Grass, Birdfoot Violets ( the official flower of Nassau County), wild Indigo seeds and leaves ( used to make dyes), the varieties of daisies, Black Eyed Susans, Queen Anne's Lace, as well as mosses and lichens. All gave a mass of continued color from spring time on the Plains to the fall with an abundance of black berries to eat. The wildlife that inhabited the Plains was the Upland Sandpiper, Grasshopper Sparrows, Ring Neck Pheasant, Red Tail Hawks, Barn Owls, fox, rabbits, a colorful display of butterflies, jumping grasshoppers and crickets all made the Plains their home. We are grateful for the many volunteers dedicated to make the remaining acres of the Hempstead Plains a living museum. More information about the Hempstead Plains is available in the internet. September Program - When we resume our regular monthly meetings, after our summer break, we will welcome Patricia Trifaro O'Neill to address our membership and tell us about her winning design for the 9/ 11 Memorial which will be built at Farmingdaie State University. Pat was born and raised in Farmingdaie, a Farmingdaie High School graduate and is proud that her design was selected to be built in her hometown. Her design details the drama of the day, the lasting effect it has on our lives, and the happenings since her design was chosen. Mark your calendar for September 28, at 7: 30 P. M. at the Bethpage Library, Powell Avenue as we pay tribute to all Americans whose lives have been altered forever by the events of that day. Engine # 39 - We were happy to read, in Newsday, that the Railroad Museum of Long Island was given a check for $ 800,000.00 by Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy for the restoration of Steam Engine # 39. This steam engine was one of the last to run on the Long Island Rail Road, as the steam engines were replaced in 1955 by diesel locomotives. Engine # 39 will now have its boiler and tender renovated, 50 years after it was retired. The museum hopes the engine will be ready by the end of December for a Riverhead to Greenport trip. This should be a grand sight and bring back many memories of this mighty engine. Do you remember the gate man who lowered the gates as the train came through town? Days of July and August - July 1, 1963 Long Island adopted the use of the non- mandatory ZIP Codes. In 1967, the codes became mandatory for second and third-class bulk mailers. July 4th a day we proudly exclaim, " God Bless America" as we celebrate our independence and our nation's birthday. July 20, 1969 the lunar module, designed and built in Bethpage by Grumman Aircraft, LM- 5 Eagle landed on the moon. . August 3, 1956, President Eisenhower signs a historic bill which authorizes changing the name of Bedloes Island, where the Statue of Liberty stands, to " Liberty Island." CPHS President, Lenny Mulqueen, told one of his fond memories' of playing baseball in the summer in the early 1950' s, his team was called the Panthers, named after a Grumman plans and Grumman sponsored their team. The Sweet Shop, located on the comer of Broadway and Baldwin Place, promised ice cream sodas for one week for all the players on the team if they won the championship. They won the championship and they all got free ice cream sodas for one week! A neat story about growing up in our town Bethpage. We hope your summer of 2005 will be a memorable one! Summer Time on Long Island - A great time to visit the many wonderful state, county and town parks, beaches, and museums which provide a wide variety of activities and points of interest for the whole family. Also, check out the Long Island Railroad's excursions to points of interest on Long Island. Bob and I enjoyed a delightful stroll through the beautiful, manicured Ornamental Horticulture Teaching Gardens at Farmingdaie State University. We visited the gardens on a beautiful June afternoon. The roses were in full bloom, while the spent azalea blooms reminded us of the beauty that has passed. The summer annuals are in place waiting for their cue from Mother Nature to bloom. The variety of Hosta, grasses, perennials, the aged trees and evergreens, the wild strawberries which crept about under the trees, the water gardens and the statuary all added their special touch to the gardens. I enjoyed reading the bronze plaques which were dedicated in memory of teachers at the university. A time to pause and reflect on the impact people have on our lives all in such a beautiful setting. You can visit the gardens daily from 9: 00- 4: 30. Membership - We are pleased to add Al Bellini residing in Colorado, Ed Buffum from Oklahoma, Dr. and Nancy Giminaro, Almedia Sturgeon Howard in Arkansas, Marvin and Lenore Jaffee, Bonnie Johnson, Mark and Richard Kalen, Dorothy Rode, and Ruth Schaaf residing in Florida to our list of members. Thank you for your support. For the year 2005 we have an enrollment of 213 members. It is great hearing from you - We received the following responses from our new members: Ed Buffum and Bonnie Johnson thanks the Historical Society for our endeavors. Almedia ( Sturgeon) Howard told us that she received a copy of our Newsletter from her sister- in- law and enjoyed reading about the many people and places she remembered in Bethpage. She was born in Central Park 3- 19- 25. Ruth Schaaf, who has lived in Florida since 1982, wrote the following: " Hello Fellow Bethpagians!" Wanted you to know how much I enjoy reading your Newsletter even tho many names are foreign to me. When I read an occasional familiar name, it takes me back to a pleasant time when I lived in Bethpage. I remember the huge celebration when " Central Park's" name was changed to " Bethpage" and feeling a little sad for I liked being from " Central Park." I enjoyed reading Leo Schottland's comments and I agree with him. He has always been a very compassionate soul, as evident in obtaining my father- in- law's home on Broadway, Bethpage, to help young unfortunate youths. I noticed that one of your next columns will be about the " Hempstead Plains." My grandfather lived in East Meadow, east of Hempstead. He had a peach orchard, the most delicious preaches anyone ever ate. Cars came from New York City and way out on Long Island just to purchase grandpa Berg's peaches. My mother, Alice L. ( Berg) Ludwig, would drive me and my sister to grandpa's so we could help place the peaches in baskets for sale. What a fun time it was for us and such a wonderful memory to savor. My mother taught in East Meadow, in a one room school house, all grades. I often wondered how she managed such a task. She always spoke well of her teaching. Guess it was because she loved children so much! Having five of her own was proof of this love! Thanks again for the Newsletter!

My dearest husband, Edward Schaaf, always said " You can't go back." " Going back" brings a bit of sadness, but i try to remember the wonderful people and times in our lives that we were blessed with. P. S. My grandfather's farm was located where the Meadowbrook Parkway is today. I neglected to mention that just east of his home was a hill that was always covered with beautiful blue/ purple violets. Cars would fill the roadside so people could pick those lovely flowers. It was a wondrous mass of color!" Mildred Gifford Jaisle writes, that she received a copy of the CPHS Newsletter from Hilda Carman. She made reference to the kindergarten picture of the class of 1931, Miss Woodruff, a picture that was in the May Newsletter. She identified some of the children. In the middle row 3rd from left could be Rose Greco; 4th from left Joan McGinty, 6th from left could be Charlotte Damm and 7th and 8th are the Spagnali twins ( Evelyn and Teresa). In the front row Altmann is spelled with 2n's, middle boy could be William Sloan. Next to Anthony Vitale and 5th could be William Hansult. We thank you all for your time to fill us in on a bit of very special times and memories you have on growing up in Central Park/ Bethpage! A Special " Thank You" - The Central Park Historical Society would like to thank Richard and Mark Kalen for donating models of the Grumman FF1, F3, F4 Wildcat, G21 Goose, and the F6F Hellcat. All to be put on display, in the future, at the Bethpage Library. These models are given in honor of our member, Ernest Finamore. Benkert Cider Mill - The Benkert Cider mill was located on the east side of Stewart Avenue south of the rail road tracks. We are asking you for your recollections of this, one time, a landmark in Central Park/ Bethpage. We have records of it being in operation in 1888 and knowledge of it still in operation in the 1940' s. What do you remember? We would like to hear from you via e-mail or to our P. O. Box. Remember When - This is a special " I Remember When" by Margaret Cava Carvo and Albert Procida written in the late 1980' s. If you close your eyes you can hear them telling their story. A slow stroll through Bethpage village in the crisp, early, morning air before the intrusion of the sounds and smells of commercial traffic, reawakens the visual imagery of what was aptly named Central Park. Memory is the magic wand which temporarily whisks away the bleak, black topped parking areas replacing them with wild daisies, tall weeds and even taller, elderly maples which provided a backdrop for the row of stores southwest of the rail road tracks. The aroma of fresh crushed apples accompanies this flashback to the mid- twenties and is a reminder of the Benkert Cider Mill which was also leveled by the wall to wall black top. Questions jog the memory about this part of Bethpage history. What was the nature of the people who opened businesses at the end of the era of prosperity which preceded the financial crash of 1928? How did they survive this crisis which wreaked havoc on the inhabitants of this small, park- like community? How did they turn these stores into lifelong vocations? Albert Procida and I are children of two of the families who founded one of the earliest shopping centers in Bethpage. We say families because the owners lived with their families in apartments over the store. In those days these structures were considered to be only temporary in nature. It was said they were constructed by a real estate entrepreneur, Max Silverman, who only intended to rent them. People said they wouldn't last longer than ten years. But today more than 60 days later, they still stand in spite of calamitous fires... In fact, the Sanitary Barber Shop operated by Albert and Gaspar Procida still services a Bethpage clientele many of who are related to families who recall Central Park. Two doors down, the Cava Pharmacy which was owned by my father, Carmine Cava, and later by my husband Joseph Carvo is a memory shared by a small circle of early residents. It was my world from the time I was six years old until I attended college. I recall Albert and his family from the day they were born. They were an integral part of the family business. It was a sight to behold to watch Albert and Gaspar being trained to be barbers by their dear father, Frank. We are glad to have these stories which document a time in our history. We continue to collect such stories for our Encyclopedia of Central Park/ Bethpage which is on the internet at the Bethpage Library web site. We ask you for your remembrance to add to our Encyclopedia and to share with our membership. Condolences - The Central Park Historical Society extends its sympathy to the family and friends of Roberta ( Bobbie) Donlon. Bobbie, devoted wife, mother of 7 children, grandma to 10 children, two great grandchildren, sister, sister- in- law, and friend to many. Bobbie always encouraged and supported her family in all their endeavors. This was evident by the role she assumed by being very active in the Ladies Auxiliary of the Bethpage Fire Department for 53 years, where she assumed the responsibility of being a leader and president. Bobbie will be missed by all who knew her.

Aphrodite, Venus, Penelope.
(Los abrazos rotos, Pedro Almodovar, 2009)
For more than twenty years Pedro Almodovar is shooting beautiful, Venusian movies (in the past with a clearly more Uranian and hysterical tone than today), which are always an especially sensuous delight due to his obvious enthusiasm for the striking composition of colours and shapes.
Modern mythology
Three years ago the Spanish director in his very own luscious style modernized the myth of Demeter and Persephone in a wonderful film ("Volver") about mothers and daughters losing and finding each other in the wake of sexual assaults by men.
His recent work, "Broken Embraces", seems to have been inspired by the mythical love triangle between Aphrodite, her unloved husband Hephaestus and her passionate lover Ares: Years before the time which the film starts with, a beautiful young woman gave in to the wooing of a rich, old man. She lived with him, loved him not, eventually cheated on him with a younger man, whom she fell in love with and thus provoked a desire for revenge in the cheated.
Yet for one of Almodovars multifaceted and peopled love-stories this is not enough. Flashbacks and late revelations gradually unravel an intricate web of consequential affairs, reluctant gratitude, difficult father-son-relations and relationships overshadowed by long-held secrets.
Melodrama and observance
All that melodrama, desire and jealousy, all that love and loss and grief although rich on sentiment never gets staged with corny sentimentality and never seems shallow in the face of kitsch. The tenderly amused and observant distance which Almodovar keeps towards his characters – and which in "Broken Embraces" is emphasized more than ever because of a multiple film-in-film-plot, adding a Uranian and Neptunian tone to the movie – regardless of sympathy or identification with them enables the audience to appreciate even guilt and gratitude, forgiveness and envy as a comprehensive cost of love and passion.
Yet the most beautiful thing is how, in spite of all the tragedy, lightness and vitality foster hope. It's like someone saying "hey, that's life – don't worry, it will always go on". In that sense "Broken Embraces" is an encounter between the forces of Taurus and Scorpio.
A director and his characters
Gender relations, obsessions and love-stories have been the main topics of every Almodovar-movie so far. With regard to one of the two possible horoscopes [1] for him this not only matches his sun in Libra but also the prominent strong square aspect between Venus and Mars in the deeply dramatic signs of Scorpio and Leo. The two planets are furthermore accompanied by Moon in conjunction with Venus and Pluto standing next to Mars.
24 September 1949, Calzada de Calatrava, Spanien, birth time unknown
In "Broken Embraces" both gender archetypes from this horoscope
are split in two: The main male character Mateo/Harry, who is a strong and
confident man of action, a creative director and a generous and protective
lover, not losing his lust for life even after the tragic loss of his love
and his eye-sight, presents a wonderful embodiment of Mars in Leo. His Plutonian
shadow is the rich and powerful, obsessive and even violent Ernesto, who
is driven by his need for power and control and to whom Lena, the Venus-character
in the film, played by gorgeous Penelope Cruz, is bound by feelings alternating
between self-interest, gratitude and calculation. What brings us to the Scorpio-aspect
of said Venus: She is dazzling, sexy and manipulative, an iron-willed actress,
but also passionate and full of devotion and of course a femme fatale as
dangerous as endangered by her beauty and vulnerability. It is hers to experience
the greatest fear of the Plutonian darkness – which is only too familiar
to her – and finally to fall victim to the unleashed violence and the
schemes of others.
24 September 1951, 10.00 pm, Calzada de Calatrava, Spain
After all the female archetype in this movie as in Almodovars horoscope also has (at least) two faces: there is still Judit, Mateo's/Harry's agent and caring friend, mothering him just the same as her nearly adult son and taking care of his daily needs almost as a wife – or mother. Her possessive love, displaying a passionate and occasionally excessive protection instinct, her desire to be needed and her manipulative concealment of important facts make her a very suitable incarnation of a Scorpio-Moon.
Thus "Broken Embraces" not only offers the sensuous as well as intellectual pleasure of a luxuriously photographed and excellently observed melodrama, but also a fine example of how a director's horoscope-constellations (and that means his internal personas) might be incorporated in his film characters…
Vesna Ivkovic studied literature and linguistics, sociology, philosophy and history and as well took a profound interest in psychology, mythology and different belief systems. Along the way she also explored various paths of body awareness such as the martial arts of Kung Fu, Dance, Yoga, Qi Gong and several other methods of body work and motion arts. In 1993 she discovered astrology as an instrument of knowledge and graduated in 2004 in Markus Jehle's and Petra Niehaus' master class at the Astrology Center Berlin.
