Picture of the Day - Double La-La Land Lightening

This is perhaps the most sublime image of lightening over Los Angeles that my eyes have ever beheld. I am guessing this is from the recent storm that passed through that area in recent days. Photo by Emeric Le Bars (all rights reserved).

In Your Arms

Tonight I found "In Your Arms" by Canadian trance artist Somna featuring vocals by Englishwoman Emma Elizabeth. I found this trance track in a mix HERE and it immediately hooked me starting at about the 1:25 mark. Crank up your sound system and enjoy!

Valley Fire Dash Cam View

This is a new video to me having just found it last night. It is quite compelling and reveals the experience of Lake County Sheriff's deputies contending with last month's Valley Fire in Lake County, CA, between Hidden Valley Lake and Middletown. The firestorm killed four people and burned over 1,200 homes and over 700 other structures besides scorching 76,000 acres.

Picture of the Day - When Overkill Is Good

This is how the 21-acre Gibraltar Fire near Gibraltar Peak looming over Santa Barbara, CA, and environs atop the Santa Ynez Mountains looked today after being heavily pummeled by fire retardant from various air tankers including Tanker 912. The reason for such a heavy-handed response was due to the Santa Ana Winds that started today and will last into tomorrow. Photo courtesy of Los Padres NF/USFS (all rights reserved).

The Right Elements

Tonight I discovered this gem of progressive house and am happy to have something new with which to get my groove on. "Elements" by German progressive house artist Dinka was released on February 19, 2010, so I'm only 5-1/2 years late finding this simple but exquisite track.
