this track is called "bow fell", a random improv by Rodleen

Born as Rodleen Giecek to Pamela and Edward Giecek, Getsic first began writing a cappella songs in Granite Falls, Washington where she was raised. The first song that 'came' to her was titled "Entrust Yourself".[1] In addition to her voice, she plays and writes with non-traditional guitar, bass, upright bass, piano, jimbae, and continues to learn other instruments.[2] Her official symbol is the Double You Omen.[3][4]

She has archived hundreds of songs through the Library of Congress and Internet Archive [5]. In some references, her voice is compared to Diamanda Galás [6] and Clare Torry of Pink Floyd's "Great Gig in the Sky."[7]

Rodleen performed as the supporting act for artists and bands including Kottonmouth Kings, No Doubt, Ratdog, Phil Lesh, Ani DiFranco, Ozomatli, Hot Tuna, Mickey Hart's Planet Drum, Thelonious Monster, Hellride, Banyan, Fishbone, among others.[8]

Rodleen has worked in the studio and live on stage with music artists including Andy Dick [9] and the Bitches of the Century (sometimes Dick has Rodleen perform as his opening act with the song she wrote for him called "Fucker" / Rodleen appeared on his episode of MTV Cribs playing this song), Tommy Lee of Mötley Crüe (she is the featured guest vocalist on album, "Never A Dull Moment", song, "Blue"), Dave Aron of Snoop Dogg, Willie Waldman, John Norwood Fisher, Rick Boston, Deftones (she is the featured guest vocalist in the song, "Knife Party", in their platinum album White Pony)[10], moe., Bob Weir of the Grateful Dead, John Perry Barlow, Mike McGinn, Fermin Muguruza of Negu Gorriak (she is the featured guest vocalist in song "Nazio Ibiltaria Naiz", album, Brigadistak Sound System), Isaiah "Ikey" Owens of Sublime and The Mars Volta, Stephen Perkins of Jane's Addiction, David Torkenowsky, The Jangsta, Mike Watt, H.R. of Bad Brains (nationwide tour 1997-98), Phillip "Fish" Fisher, drummer of Justin Timberlake.[11][12] Rodleen's influence to scream on stage originated from Gary Finneran.[13]

After meeting up with John Perry Barlow and Bob Weir in 1999[14], Rodleen had gained the interest of Grateful Dead Records to produce her as their "first solo artist outside of The Dead". She recorded solo tracks in Bob's home studio and in The Grateful Dead Studios. Rodleen proceeded to play shows opening for bands affiliated with The Grateful Dead and Bill Graham Presents. She performed at Bob Weir's wedding.[15]

In late 2002, Getsic formed a band, Get Sic, with rotating all-star members. The core group consisted of John Norwood Fisher of Fishbone on bass, Freddy Flint of Eek-a-Mouse on guitar, Spacey T of Fishbone on guitar, Kabade of H.R. on keys, and James Gray of Michael Franti & Spearhead on drums. Other members of the band included Dave Aron on clarinet, Willy Waldman on trumpet, Steve Giroux on guitar, Jerad Thompson (SkaDaddyZ) on saxophone, and Ralph Rivers on bass.[16] The band played shows from December 2002 through June 2003.

Rodleen developed an animation television series concept involving her personality and music with cartoonist Edo Fuijkscho and writer Thomas Gerhardt.[17] In 2007 and 2008, she had a radio show on KSOW in Cottage Grove, Oregon[18][19]. Her radio show was called The Seemless Disaster, and she played her own music from cassette tapes, and did a live, seamless mix with random audio and music records[20]. Rodleen has ongoing film collaborations with Australian writer-producer Anita Ondine [21] and American filmmaker Adam Carter Rehmeier[22]. She wrote the screenplay for the Indie Psychological thriller film The Bunny Game[23], which played in a lead role a prostitute.[24]

Ive got reason

to re member

the way she

floated up

the alley

like that

that day

before

when

the

bunny

game

was still

a figment.

She floated

Like a Rock does Role, rolled along

skipping in shoes she just inherited

from a smashingly gorgeous girl

who worked as a hidden treasure. *

The photographer was, of course,

Adam Carter Rehmeier.

And Rodleen Getsic was the subject.

Forever etched in stone here,

Now and again,

she frolics

eternally

she lives

in pieces

drifting

across

the

uni

vers

this &

it is

really

magic.....

Just believe in the random

anarchtic stretch of GOD,

an arctic sketch in awed,

archaic switch at jihad,

the way things happen

naturally, makes everything

a product of the divine

at some root level.

Just mind your

peace and cues.

Love of the highest is

is conforming

is comforting

Sing your way to the top, and you will really make it.

Make the day and do what you cherish, in order to better the world.

It doesnt matter what anyone else might think. You decide and doit.

Live for the Reason of Remembering, and always continue,

even if you forgot for a while why.

Sometimes it is best to just keep it up,

as long as what is up is what is for

the best for us,

for the rest of us,

and everyone including

You (Number One).

Take care. I love you.

The words on this piece are: IMPORTANT ! I believe in unity through Love.... And peaceful anarchy. By talking and acting right - we can work everything out together... as friends, as people, as a nation, as a world.... By uplifting each other with respect for differences.... By realizing we all come from the same God and this source is beyond time and farther than any word of any language.... so altogether now - Rise as we simplify our connections with the strength of our one common denominator: Love. Rise like the star every morning on our day. Love, Rodleen.

The Brave New America

2007-11-03T10:40:00.000-07:00

Rodleen Getsic

My campaign and political experience began at an early age. I served as an officer in several positions throughout my school years beginning age 13.

At 17 I was the Associated Student Body (ASB) President of my high school, with a full-ride leadership scholarship to any Washington State university of my choice. However a trip to Washington, D.C. for Presidential Classroom in 1992 shifted my career path. There I met President George H. W. Bush, and members of his cabinet.

In a caucus with the Assistant to the President (I believe it was Deborah Amend), I raised the issue of inner-city deterioration like gangs and homelessness. I asked how come we don't work on resolving these issues, rather than just putting a "band-aid" over the situations. A representative from the Department of Defense was present, I believe Richard Cheney, and Ms. Amend looked at him, and together they laughed out loud. Her response was a pivotal point in my career plans and my life. Ms. Amend said, "Rodleen, that is very sympathetic of you, but we are world power, and we need to maintain that status."

Following that incident, I sort of dropped out. My mom kept telling me that I could never really drop out of society, but it felt like I did. For years I mostly focused on art, music, and travel.

Later, I worked with Jubilee world relief efforts 1999-2001, serving as Lead Coordinator for Perry Farrell's Jubilee Freedom Foundation (with rock band Janes' Addiction). I also worked in event production and nonprofit service, specifically with Aileen Getty, daughter of J. Paul Getty.

More recently, I served as the Public Relations Chair for the Community of La Conchita, California following the deadly mudslide of January 2005. This event demanded attention. In La Conchita, I coordinated community disaster preparation and disaster response. Currently, the disaster response is in the slow process of State committee meetings led by Schwarzenegger's staff. (The community remains in grave danger - apparently due to wet agriculture and bad watershed management, although the State has yet to publicly address these particular points.)

After that I went to Louisiana in Spring 2006, where I networked with local government (Gulf Coast and New Orleans) in efforts to assist with the results of hurricanes Rita and Katrina. Of several offers, I was asked to be the coordinator for a Lower Ninth Ward community-organized project, consisting of residents returning to rebuild. However, at that time, I was spiritually guided to depart The South.

I spent all of this last year in a yurt in Topanga Canyon, conducting spiritual studies and working on art. Last month I moved to Cottage Grove, Oregon, where I am now quickly becoming involved with the community. The first episode of my radio show on the local community radio station will be this Monday, November 5th.

[words written regarding "campaign experience" to Barack]

At the core of present day America, there is severe disorganization occurring, with an all-too-obvious focus on greed. Our country is in danger. Barack is a courageous, peaceful leader for our brave new America.

New leaders of America must calmly call for Peace.

I have heard Barack Obama speak, and I support his campaign for Presidency.

He speaks about the power of the People.
He speaks about the power of Unity.
He speaks about the power of Peace.

Do you know what it means to hang a flag upsidedown?

It means "DISTRESS".

America is in distress.

Peace is essential.

Here is an explanation of the fast I am about to complete, which began Saturday, August 4 finalizing today, Saturday, August 11. In life, I operate on spiritual instincts. The New Moon is on tomorrow. This fast is in synchronicity with the gravitational pulls that be. When I started the fast, it was spontaneous, as I felt the Spirit call me to do it.

This Fast of Rodleen's

be in prayer and in solitude as much as possible
approximately 5 mile hikes every other day
or 2 1/2 mile hikes daily

First 4 days (Saturday - Tuesday)

Morning Daily - Green Tea Super Anti-Oxidant - Yogi brand
Morning Daily - papaya juice (2 1/2 quarts between the 4 days) and juice of grapefruit
Morning Daily - herbs* and liquid vegetable glucosamine** added in papaya juice
Morning Daily - psyllium husk in water with Emergen C
All Day - water (approximately 2 gallons per day) sometimes with lemon and/or rind***

Slowly add in regular eating habbits as see fit.

* herbs: on me the Wednesday before I took the fast, and आ हेअलेर gave me herbal, emotional, and spiritual prescriptions.

** vegetable glucosamine: vegetarian joint and cartilage strengthener.

*** A great way to use the rinds of the lemons I just discovered this week!

Chop the rinds.
Put them in a large glass container.
Add boiling hot water. Cover.
Once cooled, put in fridge.
When chilled, ready to enjoy.
Optional: Add maple syrup

**** mastercleanse tea: cayenne, lemon, maple syrup grade b

***** Gall Bladder Cleanse

There are variations of process available. Ask me, or look online.
It is recommended to be fasted for at least 3 days prior to this.
Be cautious, it is very intense, as it releases on many levels.
This is what I do -

ingest 1 cup of olive oil (mixed with juice for easier swallow)
Castor oil packs
electrolyte lemonade******
Hot water bottle on lower abdomen
coffee enema

****** electrolyte lemonade: sea salt, juice of lemons, maple syrup.

Reflections of recollections... One night, Ghostdance at Wounded Knee. Another, a mind blowing IED in Iraq. America's old fashioned ways of expansion and assimilation historically retribute in patterns of disgrace.

To change a culture; to alter the world; to force "democracy"... this is the work of America. Meanwhile, leaving everyone in the dust of the ashes of the ages. War hurts everyone. We do not have to habituate to this level of anxiety. The military honchos of the United States are strategically doing their utmost to weaken the entire world, and to take over. It is obvious. [[check this]] Bush is a dictator.

American government at the head does not take care of its own peoples. America's government brainwashes humans into "killer machines" for warfare. Americans of all ages are on drugs that numb the consciousness (prescribed by doctors and/or recreational). American cities are ridden with homelessness and poverty. Disasters increased by American negligence are destroying coastline communities. The United States of America is crumbling, literally.

To each and every soldier, troop, fighter, leader, and defender involved in combat for any country, tribe, cause- whatever the reason for the fight - know that you are loved, blessed, and cared for. And if you are injured from war, may you find healing in a unique way. Remember that you are strong. All of you. We love you. We will come through this. From the hearts of our beings, to the outer most regions of existence, God is in us. All of us. Stars. Listen. Blessings. Love.

People uniting worldwide for cause... This is necess. New ways. New waves: The wave of the future is now. Intellect. Internet. Music. Art. Vitality. Connection. Culture. Community. Games. Nature. Magic. What have you. We are getting it.

Sitting Bull (pictured above) is the Sioux chief that led his people in the Native American resistance.

This is how it begins...

Gorgeous scenes are ours.

Everything moves

evolving.

Evelation, in a sense, is how it all works.

All of the art that is created and generated unto now succumbs to the Big Picture. I see parties uniting and untying. What now? God knows, as do we. We leave it up to the everchanging scenes. Hello. This is rhymes and riddles, is it not?

Take a look at not-a-thing, nothing, evoluting. We do not have to understand. Our lives are larger than that. Take a breath.

Breathe in prana. You were told all along. This life is more precious than gold. So is pot. I know. I know. Look, this is art.

When I was still a glimmer in the eyes of my ma and pa, this is what it looked like:

KINDLING A DIVINE RENASCENCE

2007-03-05T10:12:00.000-08:00

TOPANGA CANYON, CA ---- The story is about to unfold that which the ancients left untold. Books and gurus may tell the ways, tho the means are already given. And, like algebra, naturally the course is cleared. Working together globally, the world proceeds successions that are monumentally shifting life in new directions. Unity spread strategically throughout the entire surface will root a new and strong force. Those banded with a common plan for the benefit of the whole will rise.

Some will fall and fail; others will figure and find. Hold on to your horses and hats. Generations worked it out until now, as the grandeur present change is ockering.

Abundance is the aspect of life worth waiting for no more. Balance is evolutionary. Use the ancient flambeaux that is lit up to see the torrents of true freedom. There is an open door. Now is the time. To wait is to halt. To make is to move. At the right time there will be no stopping.

"I cant take credit for any ideas
because all of the thoughts I have
have come from my interactions
with all the rest of you, therefore
youre just as responsible for this
as I am." -Stephen Fantl

State of the What?

2007-01-24T13:06:00.000-08:00

Last Night's State of the Union Address Bush sends a clear message to the world in his address: distress.

Rodleen Getsic

What the President said last night describes exactly the state of the world: "a contagion of violence," (in his own words).

Anarchy is what? Severe dictatorship is now taking place. The House sits strong. Senator McCain slept through his speech.

The goals for Bush's five year plan are to increase US involvement in Iraq, Iran, North Korea, Africa.... The world all over- war and aid and terror. I heard the President push folks to volunteer to war, and I heard him say "do not wear the uniform." He praised a man with a silver star for standing with courage in front of a gunner to block the shot. Some people spoke privately about the President's involvement with Ms. Rice. "Condoleeza's his girlfriend," said HippiSteve.

What about the State of The Union? Where do we stand? "War on terror!" Waronterr? This is the focus President Bush is envisioning for our future. More war. He wants to "fight against extremism." (Which makes no sense, for he himself is an extremist.) He wants "victory." Bush is promoting war and control. This is outright aggravated assault on the Middle East, and soon, the world, and us. This is ludicrous. The meanwhile neglect of our own nation's divided [untied] states leaves us as vulnerable as never before. Our homeland is not secure.

What is President Bush's vision on how "America cannot fail?"

"Waronterr!" Rhymes with: "Moron Scare."

It was some while ago already when things were different. The ball bounces into courts new and abroad now as we encounter the closest experience to gether the gather all at once. I winced. Or, was it a wink? Ah. But family dies and is born again. The beachside stranglers keep on going as I stand here mesmerized by the constant flow that the world spins with. I could sing any key at any given moment if we just let me. At the encountering of this millennium's seventh year, there was a kiss from some unknown mystery of a soul. People pass through walls sometimes not because they are only figments, but because the wall is. Just die. That is what charly did on the course. He couldve made it, but he jumped back in to save some civilians. Thank god everyone else sur vived. Or did we? I saw the russman last night. "Why dont you just move?" asked one of the newscasters abruptly, echoing the words of San buena Ventura (a county cursing the holy name they have been given via discourse ockering horrific results which will ebb in more disaster). La Conchita. This is my life, my home. My children were born here. I moved here before the ranch started watering their avocado trees, saturating the hill behind my home. I have lived here before the county super sat in his playschool chair directing children, and now he stands pointing fingers of blame at our small village, professing that we are a 'burden'. The press prints the idea that what is happening here is a 'geological event'. Sobeit. Yet the geology is neogeology. Rincon. Punta Gorda. This precious hill of earth that I live in front of has been stable for thousands of years. Now, an ancient landslide has been reactivated by bad decisions linked to a company and a county. Ventura. Rincon Investment. Like a liar keeps building his story, in the end his story will not hold up. But in the meantime, my people are the butt of the story. Endangered. We have been buried alive, and heartless governmen only wave their arms around, breaking a leg, getting claps, and professing that they will save the state. Emergence. The state of the nation is crumbling from sea to whining see.

Two years ago today La Conchita was crushed by a land failure. One third of the community died, including small children and dogs. The town remains in danger, looking like a third-world country. The ranch is still watering daily. Even driving by on the 101, one can see the water pouring out of the side of the hill. www.LaConchita.net

La Conchita Update

2006-12-04T12:44:00.000-08:00

Nearly two years after the deadly La Conchita Mudslide, a serious danger remains, threatening not only this precious coastal community, but also effecting future commerce of the State of California.

Historically, the first slide above the community of La Conchita occurred in March 1995, destroying several homes. At that time research was conducted, and plans for stabilizing the hill were drawn up. These plans were not acted upon. Agricultural and watershed issues are contributors to the saturation and reactivation of this ancient landslide.

Community efforts toward public awareness of the situation in La Conchita resulted this last March 2006 in the funding of the La Conchita Study, commissioned by Governor Schwarzenegger, and headed by the California State Office of Emergency Services. The declared intent of the study is to examine the geological, technical, financial, environmental, and social factors necessary in developing a solution to the situation in La Conchita.

Recently La Conchita Community Organization (LCCO) Chairman Mike Bell informed the community in a letter that the State committee for the La Conchita Study has met on several occasions. He says the group has decided to write a Request for Qualification (RFQ), a project advertisement directed toward contractors to be posted on the State website. "This is the first step in the process of getting geologists on the hill, doing the investigative work, to determine how to stabilize the hill and the costs associated with the stabilization," wrote Bell. The report for this study is due to be completed by next Fall 2007.

Preserve Wildlife: Live One

2006-12-01T19:08:00.000-08:00

Smokey Point, Washington

Rodleen Getsic

This week has been a wild one.

Prior Post to the Script: Dont get mad at me if I havent called you. Friends and former neighbors, please feel free to get in touch with me. I am truly whelmed with all of this that is ockering now. So, praytell. My email is getsic@yahoo.com and you may have my cell. So be in touch if you want to see me / talk to me. Let's see what is possible. I am in demand energetically right now. And it is my own fault line; a beautiful one at that.

So... Because of the snow I was stranded in Darrington (which was not so bad at all) with my dear friends---> Shannon White and her kids, Ivy White (10) and Dylan Landry (14)... We watched so many movies... We lounged and slept and played and talked. It was really nice, actually. Shannon introduced me to the welcoming addiction of the Moon Valley Lotion Bar. http://www.moonvalleyhoney.com/ We kept rubbing it on our bodies while watching movies. I know it sounds strange, but if you get one, you will understand. It is really rad.

When I finally was able to get my truck back on the road and partially thawed out, I came to my family's house- The Giecek's - as you may know, a Polish last name pronounced “get-sic” - (Mawz, Pawz, my brother Rudy, and his wife Rhonda, and her brother Adam Veach...), where the power was out and it was freezing cold. They hadnt had power all week! This was yesterday- so Sunday through Thursday, NO POWER in icy cold freezing, snowy weather...! I withstood in my goose down and wool blankets (and a borrowed goose down coat from Dylan, THANKYOU!)... And, a talk with Chris Durfee who is in Los Angeles warmed up my senses in yesterday's chill.

After going to Starbucks yesterday morning, my truck all of a sudden went dead in the middle of the road. The Smokey Point neighborhood power was still out. Snow. Slush. Freeze. Tears. Blur. Ah! Power. I NEED POWER! “Power, Lord. Give me power, Lord!” Sister Gertrude Morgan sings. www.PreservationHall.com

Finally today I got my Jimmytruck onto the back bed of a large tow truck (because the keys are stuck in the ignition... the power is completely gone), and to a shop. This was just hours ago. The lady at the shop said she would call me in an hour or so. She hadnt called by 5PM, so I called her. The shop was closed. They open on Monday. I am stranded. In a mystery; not a misery. Definitely MYSTERIOUSNESS is going on here. For more reasons than afore mentioned.

I plan to head back to California at some point. Soon, actually. That is the plan.

Barlow is coming out for a Vanguard conference in Seattle. My girlfriend (Best Friend) Kirsha Kaechele is flying in from New Orleans, as well. Kirsha and I are destined to drive South together, maybe catching an EFF Board Meeting in SF on the way to Los Angeles.

Tho, IN DEED: everything is subject to ALTER.

AS I always say,
"We will see what time will bring."

Hey. By the way, my family is doing great up here. We all went to Amigo in Stanwood last night (Rudy, Pop, Mom, and I) and we ate Mexican food and drank Margaritas. Rudy works at Amigos every Saturday night, bouncing. Right now my parents are watching Star Trek, and I am sort of listening to it.

Somebody buy my pop's gorgeous piece of art:

http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewListedItems&include=0&since=1&rdir=0&rows=50&userid=giecek

It is practically a steal. I would buy it if I had a house to put it in.

I had a lot more to say, but now it is fleeting out of my head. I will continue those thoughts some other time. I will speak on Timothy Treadwell at some point. Wait. Maybe now is the time.

Reel Quick Like: The film entitled Grizzly Man by Werner Herzog is disturbing to an extreme, and obviously put together in a manner for shock value to the viewer. I am sure Mr. Treadwell is turning over in his grave at this horrifically negative exposure of his work on Earth. One can see the light of his genious, although the focus is elsewhere in this insensitive flick.

After almost two hundred hours of footage on the special lives of these grizzlies and other wild life; how it affected him as an explorer and a caring person; what message he was bringing to the world and our children; what he was protecting... All of these crucial points to consider, only to be exploited in a sad attempt to make a dramatic scene surrounding his death.

As you can tell, I am greatly moved my Timothy Treadwell, and one day I will like to see his film made. I do not take "Grizzly Man" with any salt. Salt is too lucky of an omen for Director Herzog’s stab at this body.

This is one of my goals: to get in touch with the person who has access to all of Treadwell’s precious work, and to put it together in a respectful way that he would be proud of. Ivy White agreed to join me in this mission. We have already brainstormed several ideas for this prospective project.

That is all for now. I send my love out to the world.

Love,
Rodleen

"The Common Denominator."

Rodleen Getsic

One of my greatest jokes to myself lately is that "none of my relationships [romantic] have ever worked out."

I just spoke with John Perry Barlow. He says that I attract painful ones.

This year Barlow has asked my hand in marriage. He said he has only asked two women in his life to marry him. His ex-wife (of the three Barlowettes) and myself. What a complete honor. Barlow, I love you.

Last night my Brother Rudy said:
"Rodleen, youre looking for something you like
instead of something youd like to love."

Rudy also said: "I am a waxing intellectual."

And, he was talking about me in 3rd person. He said:
"She's not the catalyst. She's the rest of us.
The Common Denominator."

Rudy was on a rampage last night with the words. He said a lot of things. I wrote down everything.

Tonight Dan Johnson (Olympia, Washington) reminded me in a conversation about our relationship some odd decade of years ago... That we came together because we are healers.

Really, my relationships with people do work out. The relationships last forever in an evolving manner. I cherish my friends.

I just wonder.

That is all.

It is the end of Thanksgiving Dinner for this year now.

The man I am in love with currently has nothing to say to me.

I go forth in my spiritual journey.

Love.

OK. Pause. The man that I love just called. This could work...?

Thanksgive it up.

What a calm, wonderfulday?

Family.

We watched the New York "parade" today on the tv set.

POP: What's this world coming to?!!

RODLEEN: What's this world coming to?!! It's coming to a day and age where parades stand still.

I was actually impressed with all of the songs that got sung (or, rather, lip-sunkt) during the programming. It was really great to hear all of the people singing. I love disney-esque music. The opera singer rocked, too, although she was the worst actress of them all. Her dress was gorgeous, tho. All dressed in white.

I do not usually watch television.

We also heard about the war and the deaths and lebanon and Iran.

What a mess for the U.S.!

My big question of the last decade and a half -

Why doesnt America focus on our own country's inner strength and longevity?

Why? Because, this nation's leadership is more concerned with "maintaining our world power status," as the Secretary of State to President George H. W. Bush informed me during a crossfire in Washington, D.C. in July 1992.

This still makes absolutely no sense to me: the fact that this country puts the major focus outwardly rather than inwardly. In numbers and through unification, we will withstand.

La Conchita Mudslide - US Disaster

2006-11-23T21:25:00.000-08:00

WHAT IS CALIFORNIA
WAITING FOR?
REBUILD LA CONCHITA - SAVE THE RINCON CORRIDOR

by Rodleen Getsic

Rodleen is the former spokesperson and public relations for the community of La Conchita, California. This article was published in Fall 2005 in several local newspapers.

LA CONCHITA, CA.-- You remember. It wasn't too long ago. Less than a year ago was that day the deadly mudslide hit La Conchita, California. The mud came down hard and fast. The interstate and railroad were flooded and blockaded, bringing major commerce to a halt. Homes were destroyed and people were killed in La Conchita. Three percent (3%) of the community died, including some small children.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger walked along the streets of La Conchita. He called out heroically, "We will rebuild!" He said he would help make the community safe again. In his own career campaign, he has claimed, “I'm here as your warrior, remember that. I want to protect you." Though, he has left La Conchita a gaping wound right here in California’s front yard.

Nothing has been done to aide in the rebuilding of La Conchita since the bodies were pulled out of the mud and rubble. Crushed houses still sit rotting at the base of the mudslide. Roads are muddy, unkempt, and in some cases completely blocked by hills of fallen mud. “Road Closed” and other warning signs block some of the intersections. More than 6,000 gallons of water pours onto the streets of La Conchita daily, riveting sloppily down the middle of the roads in small streams. This water is high in toxicity and seeps down from irrigation sourcing from the avocado ranch on top of the hill.

Recently, there have been outlandish theories of doom printed up about California falling into the ocean. Some folks think that everyone in La Conchita should just move. Did you know that generations of families reside in this little town? This area was established in the 1800’s as Punta Gorda. Some people still living today in La Conchita once played in the Punta School House even before La Conchita del Mar was established in 1924. This community is unique, and it is a core part of California history. It is filled with people that love their neighbors. It is filled with tax paying citizens. La Conchita de serves to be saved and safe.

Until the hill above La Conchita is stabilized, The State of California is in danger. When the mud slides, it covers the federal interstate and the federal railroad, and it causes a halt in commerce. It also kills and destroys. In America, when a National Disaster is declared, the government is mandated to administer safety and disaster relief to its citizens. The government is required to make sure that the region where the disaster occurred is safely reconstructed.

“Four years after the frightening experience of September the Eleventh, Americans have every right to expect a more effective response at a time of emergency,” says Bush. There has been no response in La Conchita since it was declared a National Disaster in January of this year. The rebuilding of Laguna Beach, South of Los Angeles, is already well on its way toward completion after the landslide they experienced around the same time this year. It is shocking that nothing has been done to rectify the situation in La Conchita, California.

In order to save lives, preserve this community, and to protect the coastal corridor of Highway 101, The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) should be called in for Environmental Protection and Disaster Response. Recently, Patricia Sigur of USACE in D.C. told La Conchita that she is concerned nothing has been done. She sees the need for assistance, and stated, “Though we cannot lobby for work, we stand ready.” Taking the same stance as other State and Federal Officials, she says that the local government, in this case, the county of Ventura, is required to request assistance from the higher levels of government in order to fulfill administration of Disaster Relief.

Ventura County has not asked for any help. At the South Coast Sub-Regional Planning Committee Meeting on October 26, 2005, Supervisor Steve Bennett stated that he would like The State and The Federal Government to take on the liability of fixing the hill above La Conchita, “But…” shaking his head, he continued, “I think that’s highly unlikely.” Nearly a year after the tragic incident, Ventura County has still not asked for any help to rebuild and protect La Conchita.

Why not terrace the hill now, before it falls again? Steve Bennett expresses such concern about “costing Ventura taxpayers.” This year, when the highway was shut down for ten days at La Conchita, it cost our state $10 million a day, resulting in a loss of approximately $100 million. The railroad was shut down for 3 weeks, resulting in a loss of $33 million. According to plans drawn up by private engineers, terracing the hill will cost an estimated $20 to $40 million.

How is not terracing the hill saving tax dollars? It will certainly save dollars. It will certainly save lives. It will certainly save time. Each workday, 15,000 commuters drive past La Conchita (SBCAG). This very corridor of the 101 where Santa Barbara County and Ventura County meets is deemed a Geological Hazard Zone, according to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Until this area is reconstructed, The State of California is in danger.

New Orleans Commentary - US Disasters

From: Rodleen Getsic getsic@yahoo.com
Subject: New Orleans: One Year Later
Date: 11:39am 8/29/06

New Orleans, Louisiana
Tuesday, August 29, 2006

I am here in New Orleans. A second line jazz procession is just now beginning in the Lower Ninth Ward. The "3 Presidents" are here: Bush, Bush, and Clinton. Wynton Marsalis has arrived in high performance with a serious positive force. The Preservation Hall musicians have returned to play. Choirs and players in churches and bars and courtyards and living rooms are making music. People are praying and playing and working and marching and rebuilding their homes here in New Orleans.

We have a lot of intense emotions gathering together here today as we remember the thousands of lives that were lost one year ago. The seriousness of the tragedy called Katrina is echoed throughout the city. As a National Disaster, New Orleans is directly reminiscent of last year's La Conchita Mudslide (California, January 2005), and Hurricane Rita (Gulf Coast, September 2005) - in that, people died, homes were ruined, and danger remains in a critical way. It is now crucial for our national government to focus on disaster response and strategic disaster planning.

Be inspired by the people continuing to do what they do as best they can in light of the tragedies that hit. Come on America. Do what ever you can. Let's clean it all up. Let's rebuild. Let's make our nation strong again.

"You don't know the chorus of this song?

You must be busy." - Wynton Marsalis

Now here near Yosemite

with my mother who is an angel.

I am taking her home, back to my pop.

Ive come up from in and out of the highest hills of Malibu, Topanga, West Hollywood... Swallow'd up some divine partying and gorgeous energy with Barlow and frienz. Took part in filming extravaganzas within an execution of knowledge (at USC) by the two Johns of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Made some songs. Performed an amazing photoshoot at Forest Lawn with Carter behind the camera's eye. Attended a dark night of 80s flashback feelings with jack and coke at the Rainbow. Fell in love with a man.

& Soon to return to Los Angeles for the holiday even still.

All My Love.

Here in Hollywood Hills above Doheny. [Stricker&Durfee.]

Last night was Deftones show at the Avalon. I attended with my friend Steve Stevens, head of security for Maverick Records, and a whole crew of Warner Bros. people. I wasnt sure what to expect, but I forsure wanted to see The Deftones; and sing. People had been telling me that Knife Party was on the set. It was sort of a funny run around first with Warner people really wanting to meet-and-greet with the band. I was lost in the shuffle of waiting, but of course, it was worth the wait. After a while I ran into Stef and he said, "Youre singing tonight, right?"

The Deftones rocked it so hard. It had been years since I laid my eyes on them, but they continue to rock steady. Chi. Abe. Frank. Stef. Chino. I met Frank's parents. His dad brought rum from Jamaica that tasted divine.

Chino wasnt sure if I would sing again tonight. He put me in touch with a manager. We will see what time will bring.

All Love.
