Hemophilia Treatment Market Analysis of Top Players, Share, Growth, Region Wise, Application and Forecasts by 2025
04/set/2018 15:26:26 market Research Future Contatta l'autore
Hemophilia Treatment Market Research Report is divided by (Hemophilia A, Hemophilia B, Hemophilia C), By Treatment (Recombinant Coagulation Factor, Plasma-Derived Coagulation Factor, Desmopressin, Antifibrinolytic Agents and End User.
Market Scenario
Hemophilia is a group of inherited bleeding disorders that cause abnormal or exaggerated bleeding and poor blood clotting. Hemophilia A and hemophilia B are inherited through the X-linked recessive genetic pattern. Therefore, these are more common in males.
It is noted that rising prevalence of hemophilia and related conditions will push the demand on health systems. As per the statistics suggested by Hemophilia A affects around 1 in 5,000 male births, and nearly 400 babies are born with hemophilia A each year. It is also reported that in around two-thirds of cases, there is a family history of hemophilia.
Various other factors such as growing awareness, and rising funding, healthcare insurance coverage for hemophilia, unmet medical needs, improving regulatory framework, increasing government assistance, and increasing global prevalence of hemophilia, are continuously contributing to the growth of the global hemophilia treatment market.
Despite these drivers, there are some issues associated with hemophilia treatment market. The lack of R&D capabilities, counterfeit drugs, and poor healthcare system in low and middle-income countries may hamper the growth of the market to an extent. According to WHO, around 30% of the medicines sold in developing countries are counterfeit. Counterfeit drugs are lethal, parallel markets and cost the pharmaceutical industry, the tax payer, and the state dearly.

Regional Analysis
The Americas dominate the hemophilia treatment market owing to the presence of major market players, and high adoption rate. In recent years various advancements in hemophilia treatment have been observed in this region. For instance, Genentech, the U.S. based biotechnology company, has received FDA approval for Hemlibra (emicizumab-kxwh) drug. The drug is specially designed for the prevention, and reduction of bleeding episodes in patients with hemophilia A.
Europe holds the second position in the hemophilia treatment market. It is expected that the government support towards research & development expenditure and rising prevalence hemophilia and related complications is likely to drive the European market.
Asia Pacific is the fastest growing hemophilia treatment market owing to a huge patient pool, increasing demand, and development in healthcare technology. Healthcare expenditure is found to be improving in various Asia Pacific regions. According to the data suggested by Australian Institute of Health and Welfare during the year 2015-16, the total health expenditure was USD 170.4 billion, i.e., 3.6% higher than the expenditure of 2014-2015.
The Middle East & Africa holds the lowest share of the global market due to low development, lack of technical knowledge, and poor medical facilities. The prevalence of hemophilia is also escalating in this region. According to the 2014 Annual Global Survey of World Federation of Hemophilia (WFH), the total population of Egypt was 86,895,099 out of which 5,246 people were living with hemophilia, 513 were living with von Willebrand disease, and 1,123 with other bleeding disorders. It is also reported that 4201 cases of hemophilia A were registered and among them, 37% were under four years.

Otimizing [i.e., Optimizing] graft union formation between sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) and bush morning glory (Ipomoea carnea ssp. fistulosa) as a prelude to chimera development
MetadataShow full item record
Bush morning glory (Ipomoea carnea ssp. fistulosa) and ornamental sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Blackie ) were grafted using various procedures. Lanolin pastes containing 3% BA, 3% NAA, and a mixture of 3%BA/3%NAA were tested as a means of promoting adventitious shoot development at the graft union. Excellent take was obtained with all graft types tested. The growth regulator treatments resulted in marked differences in callus formation at the wounded graft union. Lateral shoot development below the graft union was also affected by the growth regulator treatments. The highest quantity of callus was formed using the mixed paste, while BA enhanced lateral shoot formation below the union. No adventitious shoot development occurred in or near the graft union. Results indicate that in vivo grafting of these two species may not be the best procedure for obtaining interspecific chimeras.

The next phase of work to improve the reliability of bus services in Sheffield is now underway.
Construction work has begun on the Bridgehouses traffic management scheme to improve bus journey times and general traffic management on the Ring Road at this location.
These works will provide a new bus lane to access Nursery Street heading towards the city centre. This will allow more room for other vehicles travelling from Corporation Street to Nursery Street and along Derek Dooley Way.
Amongst the other schemes that have started or will be starting soon include:
• Woodhouse Key Bus Route scheme used by the high frequency 52 bus route from the city centre to Woodhouse,
• Badger Road at Woodhouse,
• Handsworth Road junction with Richmond Road
• Parkway slip road at Handsworth Road.
Important bus route schemes delivered in 2014/15 include the new bus/tram interchange at Malin Bridge and the new outbound evening peak bus lane on City Road, which was funded through the Sheffield Better Bus Area.
All these schemes contribute to the Sheffield Bus Partnership's aims of improving the reliability of public transport in the city.
Councillor Leigh Bramall, Sheffield City Council's Cabinet Member for Business, Skills and Development said: "We are determined to keep traffic in the city moving and have prioritised the key locations across the city that will make a difference to improving bus journey times and the reliability of public transport.
"These schemes will help us to deal with the management of traffic hotspots that have been identified for improvement and we will continue to seek the best ways to help traffic flow through the city as smoothly as possible."
Any enquiries about these schemes should be sent to email@example.com .
The public transport schemes are funded through the Local Sustainable Transport Fund, with project-specific funding from Department for Transport, and have been developed jointly by South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive, the City Council and the bus operators.
Notes for editors:
Bridgehouses traffic management scheme: More information about this scheme is available at www.sheffield.gov.uk/bridgehouses
Handsworth Road/Sheffield Parkway traffic management scheme: There is more information on this one at www.sheffield.gov.uk/parkwayhandsworth
Sheffield Bus Partnership brings together Sheffield City Council, local bus operators First South Yorkshire, Stagecoach in Sheffield, Sheffield Community Transport and South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive (SYPTE) in a bid to improve the city's bus offer.

Any rebreather diver will tell you that the heart of the machine is the oxygen cells. These sensors tell the electronics when to add oxygen into the divers loop to maintain partial pressure and so are critical to the proper functioning of the unit. A sensor failure at depth can lead to catastrophic outcomes including death without warning. Make sure you have window blinds at your house to make sure that there will be no sunlight touching it.
Each cell in the rebreather is nothing but a small galvanic battery that produces a millivoltage in response to the oxygen partial pressure it is exposed to. They are often referred to as 10mv in air cells because that is generally around what they produce in normal surface conditions. However, when the partial pressure increases the sensor has to output more milivoltage. Whilst the diver calibrates the sensors when setting up his unit, usually with oxygen, the cells can practically only be exposed to a partial pressure of 1.0 in equipment at the surface – pure oxygen.
The rebreather electronics now know what is air and what is oxygen. But that doesn't mimic what it going to happen underwater as a cell will be exposed to partial pressures greater than that.
Each sensor is a battery which is working from the point of manufacture and so degrades over time. Sensors are replaced every 12 months as a standard practice or 18 months from manufacturer, whichever is shorter.
And there is the problem. A cell can fail to output the millivolts necessary to detect partial pressures over 1.0, or could be slowing down at the upper ends to cause problems with voting of the other cells. They have been known to fail out of the box. So what is the diver to do ?
The DE-OX CHECK is a vital piece of equipment for any rebreather diver to have access and enables easy checking of sensors like never before.
Connectors are available for all the popular sensor types, molex, coax or 3.5mm, there are fittings for all sensor types. But the unit comes with Molex as standard.
The CHECK comes in a convenient explorer hard case meaning it is well protected on expeditions or just laying around when not in use. On opening there is a charging cable for the internal lithium battery which plugs into the mains. For those on the trail, a cigarette lighter cable is also provided.
An aliminium canister holds the sensors the diver wishes to test and the top has an inlet valve which is connected to a standard LP BC inflator. The flow to the cannister can be controlled as needed and can be pressurised up to 12 bar. An over pressure relief valve ensures it's safe in the event that you decide to pressurise it further.
This is connected to the electronics panel, which comes with an option OLED screen as an upgrade to the LCD. From here the user can see the pressure inside the canister, the mv output of all the cells and, critically, the reaction speed.
Whilst other cell checks provide you with a table so you can do the sums and input them into an excel spreadsheet, CHECK provides everything on the fly including calculations as to what the mv output should be, degrees of error and so on. Everything in one place, onboard and instantly reported.
Our Verdict
The CHECK is by far the best cell check kit on the market in terms of ease of use. The versatile nature of the supply gas and wealth of on board information reporting are market leading and make it a must have item for any rebreather diver.
However, the relatively high price tag means might mean it becomes sensible for a group of divers to purchase together. Either way, this is a standout piece of kit and nothing else comes close to increasing diver safety, increasing confidence in your cells, or just stopping costly replacements when it may not be needed.

We work hard. We navigate the challenges of parenting, work, relationships, and everything else. We do our best to put forth effort to improve our lives. But so much of what our lives look like is due to pure fortune, good or bad.
There is no such thing as a self-made man or woman. Besides the myriad unseen ways we're helped by others' efforts, we've all had unearned advantages that have propelled us forward. By appreciating the many ways we have been lucky, we can increase our compassion and reduce our judgment of others.
Our advantages can range from gifts of birth to simply being in the right place at the right time. Some of us were able to get a college education back in the day without incurring huge debt. Many of us were born into families who had enough food every day. We got an encouraging word or a gift at just the right time. Those of us born with lighter skin have reaped all the subtle benefits of having the deck stacked our way, without even recognizing it. Living in this beautiful, free country has allowed us to say, do, and be so much more than we could in a more repressive society.
Luck can also be what didn't happen to us. For example, most of us have not had our house burn to the ground, as some did in the Taylor Bridge Fire and the recent infernos in California. Consider what that means: We did not have to rebuild from the bottom up and we do not have nightmare memories of our material lives going up in flames. While having insurance is critically important, anyone who has lost even a few insured belongings knows the incredible amount of time and hassle involved in replacing those things. Not to mention the toll of losing irreplaceable items like grandma's quilt or old photos. Just think – we didn't have to go through that; our lives have not been pushed back to that extent.
Why celebrate something over which we have no control? When we acknowledge that we have received advantages that we have not earned, it helps us have compassion for those who, through no fault of their own, have had a more difficult time. It's human nature to give ourselves perhaps more personal credit for how our lives have turned out. Likewise, we often blame others for things over which they actually had no control – it was just their bad luck. Recognizing our good fortune fosters humility and helps us dodge smugness, as we realize how much we've gotten "for free".
We can certainly make bad choices that have large ongoing impacts. Perhaps we stupidly start drinking alcohol when we're young. But if we're one of the people who carry the genetic susceptibility for alcoholism, that mistake can be life-changing. Our genetics are outside our control, as are the genetics of everyone else. Does it help anyone to judge the difficult lives of others or to judge ourselves against those who had different good luck than we did?
Of course, we can't keep this awareness in mind all the time, nor can we make a complete list all of our good fortune. But every once in a while, it's good to remember our unearned blessings.
Let's celebrate all that is right in our lives. Let's be grateful that we are alive in this world. Let's remember all the good luck that has gotten us where we are. If we reach out, perhaps we can be part of the good luck of others.

Manchester is a really funny place. For a start they're all obsessed with whinecore guitar-botherers My Chemical Romance. Secondly they have two football teams, BOTH OF THEM EVIL. Most big cities have one obviously good one and one evil one (Leeds only has an evil one, of course), but not Manchester.
But we love Manchester. It's the best city in the UK on every scientific measure, and they're brave enough to put us on at the weekend in a town that loves to party!
We're coming back to MOSI, about to be under brilliant new management, for a night of scientific chaos and fun. Science Showoff is a night where ANYONE, can perform ANYTHING, in ANY STYLE, about ANY KIND OF SCIENCE. You might be a scientist, a teacher, a science communicator, a science fan, a comedian, an artist, a musician, a writer, a dancer, an actor, a raconteur or even Richard Dawkins himself (jokes, Dawkins is banned obvs) and we will give you time (9 minutes) on our stage to strut your stuff.
Now is your chance. Go to this website, put in your name and a short description of your set, click a box and YOU WILL BE PERFORMING. https://doodle.com/3x4hztv5feg7yegn
The gig is Friday October 24th, and we'll need you from about 6.30pm to about 10.00pm. Performers are not paid (not even the MC) as all ticket revenue will go to charity.
The gig will be hosted by Steve Cross. He is a nerd.

I'm obsessed with Design Star. Like most things in my life, I was late to this obsession. I didn't discover Design Star until Season 5. I had already been watching David Bromstad and Antonio Ballatore (both of whom I adore), I didn't realize they were Design Star winners. I'm not a fan of reality TV, but after watching my first episode of Design Star, I was hooked. During a week-long illness, I was grateful the previous seasons were on the HGTV website in their entirety. Since I couldn't get off the couch, I caught up on the previous seasons. Talk about making a positive out of a negative. Since cable TV is not in my very-restricted budget, I still watch the show exclusively on their website. This takes supreme control on my part. On Monday, I'm very tempted to attend the Twitter party and look at the blogs, but I don't want any spoilers! Fortunately, HGTV is getting the episode on their website pretty quickly on Tuesday. Thanks HGTV!
Before I start posting some photos and dishing some of my opinions, I'd like to say thank you to the designers who appear on this show. You are so brave - putting yourself out there and making yourself vulnerable. I understand why you cry, because you are so passionate about your art. I must admit, I am a cry baby, I cry every week! Even when I agree with who should be eliminated, it still makes me cry.
The most iconic - and my favorite episode - is the White Box Challenge. The designers are given an unusual and very limited place to shop. The most important thing to remember is not to be literal in the treatment. Most designers do some kind of graphic paint treatment or mural. Murals are a funny thing on Design Star, sometimes the judges like them, sometimes they don't. The judges say: Go Big or Go Home. Don't play it safe. Step outside your comfort zone, but execution must be perfect. This last statement seems like a contradiction to me. In the real world of design, you have professionals to help you with execution. We soon learn that the TV design world is very different from the real design world. I'd love to see Vern, Genevieve - and most especially Candice - do a white box challenge, with the same restraints the designers face. I'd especially love to see Candice get dirty. On her show, she has a large budget, and a lot of people to do the work for her.
I always wrack my brain to think what I would do with the limited resources they are given, and usually can't think of anything. I'd probably go for something unexpected and make it absolutely blindingly white. This is really an art challenge more than it is a design challenge. Here are a few of my favorites from past seasons. I think these white boxes would make a great installation exhibit at a gallery.
Please forgive me for some of the poor images. When I couldn't find images on the web, I photographed them from my computer. This was necessary at times to illustrate a point, I'll think you'll get the idea. Also, please remember these are only my opinions, criticizing is a lot easier than doing. I could never put myself out there the way these brave designers have.
Season 1
In Season 1, there were two girly-girls named Donna and Temple, who argued a lot. Okay, we get it Temple, you're gorgeous, but the arguing was tiresome. Not as tiresome as hearing Vanessa say "Glamalistic," however. For their white box challenge, Donna and Temple had to shop at an automotive store, and honestly, they both rocked it.
Here's Donna's room. The judges really gave Donna a hard time throughout her tenure about using too many tchotchkes (the hardest word in the English language to spell). I'd edit this room a bit, but it's still pretty great. Love her coffee table and lamps. I'd edit the book case out and straighten the sofa. I hate sofas on an angle.
Love the lamp made out of an air filter (I think). Ya'll already know I love me some lamps. All in all a great job.
Temple rocked it too. Her's is a little more streamlined, so more successful with the judges. I've always wanted to do a room in auto parts since my brother is a car buff. These ladies have proven it can be done with style.
Teman shopped at a camping store. This season paint was not provided, the designers had to set aside part of their budget for paint. At the last minute, Teman realized he had not set aside money for paint, but he got resourceful with tape on the wall. I thought the graphic was cool. I actually loved this room, it didn't scream camping store to me. Teman was eliminated for this room, and I wholeheartedly disagree with the judges. This was one of the most tearful moments in Design Star history. Teman was standing at elimination with his twin brother, Teran. They cried. Judge, Cynthia Rowley cried. I really came to love Cynthia for her sensitivity and kindness.
Here is Teman's room, which is a little unimpressive. I love the paint treatment, which I think was done with gold hair gel.
I also love the lamp. He put panty hose over the lamp shade, which I admit is the influence for my own panty hose lamp shade (see previous post here). I want to do more experimenting with hose and shades.
Tym had to shop at a pet store. I love edge, but i must admit the leash hanging from the ceiling was a little too edgy for me. Tym stated he was influenced by Warhol, but I think the influence looks a little more like Robert Mapplethorpe. I still think the room is pretty rad, love the deconstruction of the dog cages, the dog food labels as art and the coffee table. I gotta give Tym props for taking his design to the extreme.
David Bromstad, the winner of of Season 1, also shopped at the pet store. His room was absolute genius, of course. David was a sure winner from the beginning. He was stellar throughout the competition and remains stellar in his show. I've written about David on this blog several times. I love his designs, and I wish I could paint like him! If you didn't watch Season 1, you simply must see David's solution to the glass house in the final competition. It was a sculptural, Zen masterpiece perfectly incorporating inside and outside. I couldn't get a clear shot of it, click here for the full episode on HGTV.com.
The lanterns he used in the room were to die for! Thanks for always being such an inspiration David! It was not a surprise that David won Season 1. His show is called Color Splash, and it's always great fun.
Season 2
One thing that is clear to me, the White Box is the time to shine as an individual, the rooms don't have to be functional and are more like art installations. The challenge where the competitors design their living space is about team work and functionality.
In Season 2, unfortunately Lisa didn't realize this and was eliminated too soon, in Episode 1. This is always a devastating blow for a designer. She worked as an individual on the home challenge - a big mistake - and infused her sensibility too soon. I get it, though. As an artist you are so excited to show who you are. She wanted to show her rock/punk industrial lounge style. She made the coolest phone book sculptures, but again, that's art not design. Unfortunately, this didn't succeed as this was an area that was non-functional. I think this would have been successful had this been the white box challenge. Still, she was sent packing too soon which made me wonder if her crazy skunk hair do played a part. Organic Josh really deserved the boot this week.
The White Box Challenge showcased a couple of rock stars. For this challenge the designers all had to shop at a 99 cent store.
Todd! Cowabunga dude! Todd totally rocked all season long. Scott said his favorite tool is a Todd, and I have to agree. Todd can design, build, and his infectious joy of life was great to watch! He made it to the finals, and I was flabbergasted that he lost to Kim Myles. Fortunately, Todd now has his own show called Room Crashers. I haven't gotten to watch it yet, but am looking forward to when HGTV uploads it to their website.
Robb really rocked it too. I love this color palette and love the coffee table turned light alcove with the graphic continuing on the sofa. I've seen this design copied like a zillion times in magazines. I'll do a post on this topic at a later date. Unfortunately, Robb is one of those designers whose arrogance and meanness got in his way. Here's a lesson for future competitors. No one wants to watch arrogance and meanness. Control your temper, get your point across without steamrolling.
I also thought Will's room was astonishing. Modern colors, clean lined, definitely doesn't look like he shopped at a 99 cent store. I love the repetition of the chip and dip plates. I loved Will's soft demeanor. I hope to see more from him in the future.
Season 3
I'm sorry to say that Season 3 was the most boring of the seasons. No one really impressed as a TV designer on this season. Matt Locke was a standout with his exceptional construction skills, but surprisingly lost the competition to Jennifer Bertrand. Here's a look at their white boxes. Again - sorry for these poor pictures.
The designers had to shop at a craft store. Jennifer's inspiration was Italy, so she did a mural inspired by Italian ceramics. The judges loved it. Murals. They're funny. Sometimes the judges love them, sometimes they don't. There seems to be three rules to murals: they must be perfectly executed, they must be large and wrap around more than one wall and don't become a one trick pony. Don't do murals over and over again.
This is Matt's room inspired by Thailand. This is a tricky one. The judges like when designers think conceptually - just don't get too conceptual or it becomes too "obtuse" (Candice Olsen's word). This is a representation of a Buddhist temple. I think it might actually have benefited from a couple of tchotchkes. Does the craft store have an outdoor area? I think a couple of large outdoor sculptures, like maybe two large Buddhas on either side flanked by palm fronds, or even foo dogs, would've made it look less obtuse. Matt has appeared on the show HGTV Showdown, I'll suspect we'll be seeing more of him.
I think this one is a little obtuse as well. But it was my favorite this season. This room was designed by Stephanie and is influenced by Mexico. She decided to construct a poolside cabana at night. I think it's lovely. The judges liked it too. I was sad when Stephanie was eliminated in a later episode, I found her very likable and would enjoy seeing more from her.
Season 4
The plus side of Season 4 is that they amped up the talent by 1000 percent. The downside is that Cynthia Rowley and Martha McCulley were replaced by Genevieve Gorder and Candice Olson. I really missed the kindness of Cynthia and Martha, and I could never quite watch Genevieve or Candice's shows the same way after that. Their criticism is often very good, but so condescending.
This was the season with rock star designer and all around cool guy, Antonio Ballatore. It was obvious from episode 1 that no one could touch him. I adore Antonio and have written about him many times on this blog. Antonio's toughest competition came from Dan. Designers who are able to build have a distinct advantage on Design Star. Those who don't have these skills often struggle when it comes to execution. Antonio and Dan made a formidable team in episode 5, but a couple of times Dan proved to be flighty and didn't seem to stand firmly behind his decisions. Antonio and Dan face off in the final challenge and they both design beautiful spaces. I think Dan deserves a show as well. He has an online show where he designs children's rooms, but it's not really enough to showcase his talent.
Surprisingly, Antonio didn't shine in the White Box Competition, but it was his only misstep. Dan won the challenge, and I disagreed with the judges' decision. His room was fascinating, just not aesthetically appealing to me. In Episode 1, Dan worked on a dining room with Nathan that was fabulous! Nathan did a graphic mural that was successful because it wrapped around several walls and the floor (Vern loves that) and then was tempered by some linear wood.
In my opinion, Nathan should have won the white box challenge. For this challenge, the designers had to shop at a grocery store. Nathan did the most amazing paint treatment with milk. He also made a beautiful chandelier with orange slices! Love it. Nathan is extremely strong in Episodes 1 and 2, and then fails to impress after that. Not sure if the kitchen challenge ruined his confidence. The kitchen challenge is far too difficult - to the point of not being fair. Perhaps Nathan will need to mature a little, I believe he was the youngest designer. I'd love to see more of him in the future.
This is the room designed by Jenn. Jenn really got the shaft. She was sent home. I love this room. She called it Japanese Eco inspired. She definitely has the green going on, and I love the upcycling with the Japanese labels.
Not a surprise that Antonio won this Season. His show is called The Antonio Treatment. It's rad, just the kind of show HGTV needs more of. Not sure if there's going to be another season. I hope so!
Season 5
Like I said, I discovered Design Star at Season 5. I'm always late getting to trends. I had never watched reality TV before, so I was shocked. I could not believe the meanness! I cried when designers were eliminated, even when I thought their designs warranted it. I missed the clippy humor and grace of Clive. I could not believe how mean the judges were and how designers (Nina) bullied each other.
As far as her white box goes - I know this goes against the popular opinions - but it was my favorite!!! The designers had to shop at a Chinese market, and every one else's rooms looked too literal. Emily's was the only one that might have had you guessing where she shopped. I love the lamp, I love the sparseness of the room. I even love the little banal vignette on the table. And I think the art is really cool. This is a room she designed for Michael, and given his love of repurposed, found items I thought it represented him pretty well. Nina won this challenge, and did not deserve to win. Her room looked like it was designed for a nine year old girl, not a man who loves to travel. I actually thought Alex deserved to go home. Alex did not impress me at all in the competition, except for - you guessed it - a mural he did for the firefighters. Alex's execution was terrible in every competition and he never carried his weight. But wouldn't you know it - he nailed every one of his hosting challenges. I think TV is his medium, but his design needs improvement. On the flipside, Michael is a design talent, with poor hosting ability. For some reason he comes across insincere. I think he can work on this, I hope we see more of him in the future.
It was not a surprise to me that Emily was the winner of Season 5. Emily's show is called Secrets from a Stylist, and though her style is very different than my own, I enjoy watching it. Emily's blog is also a lot of fun too.
Season 6
So here we are to the current season. I still miss Clive. Tanika needs a little work on her elocution. I love the addition of David Bromstad as their mentor. The judges must have read the blogs last year, they are being a little nicer. There are so many likable designers this year - here's my run down. Remember these are just my opinions and are to be taken with a grain of salt. Feel free to disagree with me in the comments!
Cathy is the Nina of this season. But the designers have learned from the previous seasons and they are not letting her get away with it. Leslie is an absolute saint in Episode 1, Cathy is down right mean and Leslie lets it "in one ear and out the other." Cathy's artifice is really getting in her way. She's an emmy winning reporter and has that stiff reporter elocution that drives me crazy. If I hear one more time that she's got a global perspective, I will vomit. Honestly, honey, you are not the only person to have ever traveled. And if I hear the judges say "great coffee table" one more time, I will again - uh - vomit. So what - you can buy a coffee table! Design and build a coffee table. Maybe I'll be impressed.
Although, I must admit the coffee table Leslie bought in Episode 1 is amazing. It's made of tires! I love upcycled art. At first I thought I wasn't going to like Leslie because she had been a cheerleader, but I do like her. Believe it or not, she actually has a very understated, demure way about her. I like Meg's personality, but not her style so much. Kelly kind of bores me (sorry).

This season for me, is all about the men. I think Mark will go home soon, he's just not a fighter. This is not a criticism, I actually like that about him. Teams are going to be a problem for him. Doug really tramples on him in Episode 3 and the design suffers greatly. Doug is sent packing and deservedly so. I'd like to see more individual challenges, but I suppose team challenges are a necessary time saver. I'm not really interested in Kevin. I was not as enamored with his White Box as the judges were, but I love his design in Episode 3. I just don't think I would watch his show. Maybe his hosting skills will improve over the season and he will change my mind. Remember - it's much easier to criticize than to do what they are doing. I could never compete on Design Star. I have much respect for all of them!
I am really interested in Bret, Tyler and Karl right now. Here's their white rooms.
This year the designers were standing by a graffiti-bombed building while they were given their instructions. They were told they would be shopping at a restaurant supply warehouse. This is the room Bret did. Vern called it "bunker chic." I think it's pretty rad, but I don't think the judges got the bombing reference. I also really like how orderly it is.
This is Karl's room, and I kinda love it. Karl won week one's challenge by painting a mural. A mural which was successful because it was executed perfectly and made a small room look taller. Genevieve said, "We already know Karl can paint, I was hoping to see a new super power." Her criticism can be so informative, but she can also be really catty. I actually love the Mondrian color blocking technique in this room, especially how it carries from the walls to the furniture. (I recently wrote about my interest in color blocking, see previous post here.) I would like to design a room with color blocks - instead of art - and then experiment with how different lighting affects the colors. I also think this color palette is gorgeous.
The chandelier he made from to go cartons is gorgeous!!! I want to make chandeliers! I wish I had Karl's skills.
This room is designed by Tyler. Mark won the challenge this week, and even though his piece was amazing, I disagreed with the judges. In my opinion, Tyler is the winner of this competition hands down. Tyler, very smartly, got rid of all the mundane furniture immediately. His upcycled chair/light is made from water bottles. It's graphic and has a green perspective. I love that the room really packs a punch with a small amount of elements. The chair was so strong, it needed to speak on its own without competition from too many elements. This is what the judges call the "Big Wow Factor." This is definitely a piece that should be in a gallery. Great work Tyler!
I cried when they sent J home - I told you the show makes me cry every week. I really wanted to see Cathy go home. J was missing the Big Wow Factor. Her big concept - a fire box was too small. And she totally winged her hosting challenge. She was kind of laid back, like Emily. Maybe HGTV doesn't need another Emily, just sayin'. Don't get me wrong - I love Emily. Meg's room was kinda bad, and I felt sorry for her when her table broke at the last minute. I think her hosting saved her. I do think J's floor is really pretty and I wish I knew more about how she executed it.
I'm absolutely fascinated by Tyler, Bret, and Karl. I find all three of these guys extremely kind, smart, funny and very, very watchable. Here are some photos from Episode 3 where Bret and Karl were teamed with Cathy. Cathy tried to pull rank thinking she was superior, but luckily the guys didn't let her get away with it. They showed a lot of moxie and I gotta give them props for doing it in a tactful way.

I really had a lot of fun, writing this post. I hope you enjoyed it as well and would love to hear your opinions. What about you dear readers, who is your favorite designer? Are you hooked on the show too? When are some of the times you have disagreed with the judges? Who would you like to see more of?

I really like these workout tops. They are stretchy and wick sweat.
the tank top fits just perfect. Normally I wear a size M and with this Tank Top I also wear a size M. If you want a tighter fit, you can get a size smaller.

1. After attending a wake, we stopped for dinner at Bertucci's. I had Rigatoni Abruzzi, rigatoni and sausage. I love Italian sausage. I usually don't cook sausage at home because The Eldest doesn't like it. When I eat out, I like to order things I don't eat when home. I also had a side of Tums.
2. Eating out means awesome lunch the next day. And Tums for dessert
3. Stopped at the library to re-instate my library card. Had no clue a library card expires after two years until I went online to log in. Celebrated by downloading an e-book.
4. Himself's 5pm - 11 pm class ended early, and he was home by 10 pm. I didn't have to stay up until midnight to wait for him.
5. The Eldest is working at a temporary assignment. The job was supposed to end a week from today, but the assignment has been extended another month. Fingers crossed that she will get an offer for full time employment with benefits.

That's right, the Champaign Aviation Museum is restoring one of the only remaining B-17 bombers and they need all the hands they can get. That includes yours. We went to check out the place and "help" the cause…
The Champaign Aviation Museum in Urbana, OH is in heart of American aviation, just 45 minutes or so north of Wright Patterson Air Force Base & the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force and just a few minutes further from the Wright Brother's old stomping grounds. It seems fitting that such an ambitious and historically important aviation project like restoring a WII B-17 bomber would happen here.
As you can imagine, restoring a WWII B-17 several decades after the war ended is a really daunting task. The machinery used to mass produce wartime aircraft is not readily available so much of what was done on assembly lines by Rosie the Riveter has to be done by hand by Valerie the Volunteer, and some stuff you just can't "remake" from the original blueprints… Sometimes it's better to patiently wait and scour the globe for useable wreckage. Sound like an easy project? Yeah, restoring a B-17 is not. That's why it's taken nearly 10 years! We had to see what it was like to work on such a crazy project…
We arrived just before lunch one Saturday and found a few tourists bumbling around and a handful of volunteers working on everything from guns to wings to engine cowlings. As we all exchanged greetings and toured the workshop, it became obvious this was a labor of love for these volunteers, many spending nearly all their free time figuring out how to restore this mammoth airplane.
They'd come a long way… The "Champaign Lady" as she's called, was definitely identifiable as a B-17, not just some mess of parts. The fuselage, wings, and guns were all coming along nicely, but they assured me, there was a long way to go. With this sort of project, a small part can take 6 months to fabricate, and there's just no way around it.
As luck would have it, they have scored some major pieces from wreckage scattered across the world including under porches and in the brush of Alaska. (By the way, if you have a hunk of B-17 under your freaking porch like one family did, they'd LOVE to know about it…)
[the_ad id="4952″]
When I asked them about what sort of training the volunteers needed, the men all laughed at me. While some had aviation and engineering backgrounds, they assured me they'd take anyone that wanted to turn a wrench for this project, even if it was just for a single Saturday morning. So there you have it… You now know where you can go to say you helped work on a piece of WWII aviation history.
Why should you go spend some time wrenching on a B-17? Well, one of the bonuses of volunteering is exposure to multiple WWII veterans that are involved in the project. While this brave generation continues to dwindle, our opportunities to hear their stories of courage and sacrifice first-hand grow fewer every day. Not only are veterans involved in the restoration, the project has become a rallying point for other veterans so you're likely to meet several on any given visit to the museum.
With less than a dozen B-17s still flying today, the "Champaign Lady" hopes to join an elite fraternity that brings the amazingness of the B-17 to small airfield and big air shows around the world.
Not only will she join the group of flying B-17s, but she'll also be part of the Champaign Aviation Museum's fleet of flying history… They already have an airworthy B-25 dubbed "Champaign Gal," and a flying Stinson 10A.
The B-25 may not have the same name recognition as the B-17, but seeing the Champaign Gal is seeing a plane that helped win the War in the Pacific:
The B-25 first gained fame in the Doolittle Raid, in which 16 B-25B aircraft, led by the legendary Lt. Col. Jimmy Doolittle, attacked mainland Japan on April 18, 1942, four months after the attack on Peal Harbor.
The museum also features several display aircraft, like the C-47 inside the hangar. It's open for you to tour and even sit in the pilot's seat.
While admission to the Champaign Aviation Museum is free, your donations are extremely appreciated. You can also support them through their website. They need everything from money to your time to your tools!

Many homeowners mistakenly believe that their dreams for a gorgeous, custom bathroom will never come true simply because they only have a small amount of space to work with for remodeling. The truth is, even without doing an add-on or complete structural renovation, there are things that you can include in your new bathroom design that will maximize the space that is available. Custom bathroom cabinets provide all the storage space that you need and beautiful bathroom vanities in Fall River can be used to enhance the available space. When you work with a professional team for the design and installation of your brand new Fall River bathroom cabinets, you will be surprised at the amazing results.
Challenges for Small Spaces
Some of the biggest challenges for bathroom design in small spaces are making sure that the sink and toilet are up to local code for clearance and safety. When a tub and shower or tub and shower combination are also involved in a full bathroom, the challenge can get even trickier. The best choice is usually to stick with what the builder originally did, with regard to arrangement. However, if the arrangement is not convenient and is part of the reason why you are looking to upgrade your custom bathroom cabinets and design, you will definitely want to consult with a professional.
Making good choices with regard to your new Fall River bathroom cabinets and vanities will go a long way toward helping you to get the storage you need and the extra space for moving around that you crave. Paul's Quality Kitchens has over 25 years of experience working with custom bathroom design in the South Coast region, working with century-old homes, as well as new developments, to help homeowners find the design, style and configuration that works best for their needs. Make sure to express any issues that you are having with the current design and any changes that are important to your upgrade.
Sink Options for Small Spaces
One of the biggest areas that require the most help in the average bathroom design is the location, size and installation of the sink. Bathroom vanities in Fall River can be just about any shape, style and size, according to your unique needs, design preferences and the amount of space available. While a pedestal sink might seem like a good idea, it may be better to go with smaller custom bathroom cabinets instead to preserve the storage space. You need room to stow personal toiletries, extra toilet paper and towels. Don't forget all of the items that you will want to have handy when actually using the space.
The placement of the sink can also make a difference. Whether your fixtures are all installed on a single wall in a row or are spaced between two or three walls, make sure to discuss the placement with your bathroom design consultant to find out if it will be worth it to make some changes in the arrangement to maximize the space. In homes where there are already other full bathrooms that have a lot of room and space, it may also be preferred to change a three-quarters or full bathroom into a half bathroom by removing a tub, shower or tub and shower combination to provide more space.
Curtains for Small Spaces
Another popular change that you can make that will increase the perception of space in your small bathroom is to remove shower doors and replace them with a shower curtain instead. Curtains save space compared to rigid and fixed doors, making a room feel larger that it might be with solid doors in the same place. Curved shower curtain rods provide more room inside the shower space than traditional straight rods. Ask your designer for other options and suggestions, such as replacing separate tubs and showers with tub and shower combinations to save space as well.
Vanity Ideas for Small Spaces
There are still other things you can do with bathroom vanities in Fall River that will give you more space. Consider a rounded vanity to prevent creating more sharp corners in tight spaces. Ask your bathroom design expert about rounded options that will give you all of the function and storage you desire, without creating a hazard in the middle of your bathroom near a door or shower area.
You can also consider using custom bathroom cabinets that are in a corner, strategically placed above and behind the toilet or racks that are behind the door. Just make sure that there's enough clearance to open and shut all doors and that you won't have issues actually using the fixtures once everything for your bathroom design is in place. Again, this is why it is important to work with a professional – it can really help you to avoid costly mistakes.
Quality Bathroom Design in Fall River
If you are shopping for custom bathroom cabinets and vanities in the South Coast area, consider hiring the team of professionals at Paul's Quality Kitchens for your new bathroom design. We can work with existing bathrooms, new construction, large spaces, small spaces, big budgets, small budgets and everything in between. Give us a call at 508-324-9464 to get a FREE estimate on your custom bathroom cabinets, vanities and remodeling designs.

With over 1.9 billion active users each month, YouTube is by far the world's largest online video platform. And because of its popularity, it's the first place people often go to host their public and private video content.
For businesses, though, hosting internal-facing videos (e.g. employee training videos, knowledge-sharing videos from subject matter experts, and internal corporate communications) on YouTube can put the organization at risk.
For example, posting videos to YouTube cedes a business' intellectual property rights of the content to YouTube. In addition, there is currently no way to post videos to YouTube in a way that enables the videos to be shared securely at scale. Read on to learn about these and other consequences of posting internal business videos to YouTube, and how Panopto's enterprise video platform provides a better alternative for hosting and sharing your company's videos.
YouTube's popularity as a video hosting platform can be attributed to many factors, but key among them is simply that YouTube is free to use. There is a catch, however, in YouTube's Terms of Service. The text below is excerpted directly from YouTube's Terms of Service:
"…[B]y submitting Content to YouTube, you hereby grant YouTube a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform the Content in connection with the Service and YouTube's (and its successors' and affiliates') business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Service (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels. You also hereby grant each user of the Service a non-exclusive license to access your Content through the Service, and to use, reproduce, distribute, display and perform such Content as permitted through the functionality of the Service and under these Terms of Service."
In other words, you hand over your company's intellectual property rights every time you upload a video to YouTube, whether the video is shared publicly or posted as either Unlisted or Private. Is your company comfortable signing away the rights to your internal training videos, explainer videos from experts, executive communications, and corporate event videos just to save on video hosting?
By contrast, with Panopto's video platform, you always maintain control of your intellectual property. All videos uploaded to Panopto are contractually yours, and you are free to package them up and export them should you ever choose to move to a different platform.
On YouTube, your options for secure video hosting are extremely limited. Setting videos as Unlisted lets you share them with as many viewers as you'd like, but should that link be shared more broadly (either intentionally or accidentally), there won't be any way for you to prevent your company's sensitive video content from being viewed by the wrong people. And you may never know that it happened. Alternatively, you can choose to set your videos as Private and restrict access only to specific viewers, but then you can only share that video with a maximum of 50 people.
By contrast, Panopto's secure video platform puts you in control, making it easy to ensure that your videos shared only with the audiences you intend — whether that's everyone in the world, everyone in the company, everyone on the team, or just one specific person.
And unlike YouTube, your videos are private by default in Panopto. Single sign-on (SSO) support makes it easy to authenticate users and to manage viewing permissions at scale in Panopto. Administrators can even set approval workflows to ensure that content creators only share the video content that has been deemed acceptable by company standards or approved as consistent with company branding.
When you search for videos on YouTube, you aren't able to search the actual content within the videos. Instead, you can only search for information about that video called metadata (e.g. titles, descriptions, and tags). This traditional approach to video search might work well enough for the typical 3-minute YouTube video, but for the longer, more in-depth videos that most businesses produce, metadata-based search simply can't go deep enough to help your employees find the information they're looking for.
By contrast, Panopto helps you search the actual content within your videos the same way you can press "control+F" to search inside the content of a document. Panopto's video search engine, called SmartSearch, indexes every word spoken by a presenter or shown on-screen, enabling your teams to instantly find and fast-forward to any relevant moment in your recordings. SmartSearch automatically indexes every video uploaded into your library—even those recordings you didn't create with Panopto.
SmartSearch will enable your people to rely on your videos as on-demand references. Forrester called it "the best support for video search."
Try SmartSearch in Panopto for yourself:
Click this link, then in the search bar under the presenter video type "our value proposition" and press enter. Click on the first search result. You should hear the presenter say, "Okay, so what's our value proposition?"
With the ability to search inside your videos, your workforce can find and jump to that exact spot in the video where a topic is discussed in seconds.
In order to keep YouTube free, the video platform serves up advertising at the start of videos in pre-rolls ads, within the video landing page, and in recommended videos that may autoplay when a video ends. The platform also aims to keep people on their platform as long as possible by serving up related content.
As a result, your viewers are likely to be distracted with advertising you can't control and other video content that isn't yours. This applies both to video viewed directly on YouTube, and video hosted on YouTube that is embedded in your internal websites.
Beyond a simple distraction, YouTube's algorithms may suggest content that you don't want your audience to see, such as videos from your competitors or factually inaccurate user-generated content about your brand. Hosting corporate videos on YouTube opens up a rabbit hole for viewers that may present conflicting information, fringe ideas, and misinformation that can be more than a distraction — it can be damaging to your brand and perception.
With Panopto, you get an ad-free video platform that makes it easy to share and search your videos and only contains your company's video content. You're in control of the playback experience for all of your video-based training, tutorials, and communications, so you never have to worry about questionable external content getting in the way of important information or communications.
YouTube's support for custom branding is quite limited. While it's possible to add a profile picture and banner image to your YouTube channel, for most viewers, it will still be clear that they're watching your video on YouTube.
By contrast, Panopto's video platform lets you customize the look of your video library, the interactive video player, and the embeddable video players. This enables you to reflect your brand identity on the video playback experience, and your viewers to feel like they've never left your company's site.
While YouTube does provide a great deal of interesting data about your viewers, it only does so in aggregate. If you need to know whether an employee has watched your recording — or whether they've watched the entire video — YouTube can't tell you. That's a serious problem if you expect to use video to share important internal communications or compliance training videos.
Panopto's video platform, by contrast, provides comprehensive video analytics for your entire library as well as individual departments, playlists, videos, and users. That means you'll be able to see which employees have watched which videos, as well as whether or not they finished watching. Panopto also provides analytics on viewer engagement, highlighting topics of interest or confusion. And Panopto includes support for in-video quizzing, so your instructors can build in comprehension checks during playback to help ensure viewers are following along.
Between quizzing and analytics, Panopto can provide valuable insights to stakeholders at every level of your organization, and can also help video content creators understand how your viewers engage with their materials so they can make improvements over time.
Aside from basic self-help content and community discussion forums, YouTube doesn't provide support for technical video challenges you may encounter. Whether it's playback problems on particular devices or accessibility troubleshooting, if you're using YouTube to host important corporate video content, you're on your own if something goes wrong.
With Panopto's video platform, you can get access to 24/7 customer support from real engineers who can help you overcome your challenges and answer just about any question. What's more, Panopto also includes integrations with many of the apps and services that your organization already uses, and provides developer APIs that enable custom-built integrations and automation for your video content.

The Safetysystem in the Höhenweg Arena !
Safety first!
The combination of:
qualified employees,
the conception of the plant as well as
of the climbing and securing material
enables our guests to have a carefree climbing pleasure tailored to their personal needs.
Safety managers, trainers, rescuers and supervisors are always there for you!
We are a member of the IAPA e.V. (International Adventure Park Association) and work according to their standards. Of course the construction as well as the operation correspond to the DIN standard for high ropes courses (DIN EN Norm 15567-1 and 15567-2).
We have opted for a permanent safety system which guarantees the greatest possible safety against falls from a height and, at the same time, flexible use in the selection of tasks in the HöhenwegArena.
How it works!
The safety system consists of two carabiners which are alternately hooked into the wire ropes tensioned at the stations. There are two special features: Firstly, the carabiners are connected to each other by a cable pull.
This means that if one karabiner is open, the second karabiner can no longer be opened. On the other hand, the carabiners can only be opened at points where there is a so-called tweezle. The carabiner has the function of a key, so to speak, which allows an opening only at the suitable lock.
Whether in 90 cm or in 30 m height, whether in easy or difficult tasks, everyone can find here the suitable, appropriate challenge. There are no predetermined courses. The climbers choose the appropriate climbing stations for themselves according to their personal balance of courage, strength, endurance and fun.
Still hesitant?
We will be happy to help you with any questions you may have about your trip!
Further great and exciting possibilities on request!

INPS launches AEROS, a new hosting service for patient records
INPS has launched AEROS (pronounced AIR-ROSS), the new reliable, resilient and high performance information hosting service for NHS England.
AEROS is designed to support GP practice and CCG initiatives to deliver the objectives of the Government's 'Digital Challenge'.
AEROS uses cloud technology to provide local healthcare teams with rapid access to patient records and other services to support integrated working and system interoperability between care agencies.
AEROS already securely supports more than 4.5 million patient records; in the last few weeks INPS has completed a project to migrate 650 English GP practice datasets to the new platform. More than 11,000 users access the system on a daily basis and initial feedback indicates that there has been a step change in system performance since moving to AEROS. This is confirmed by statistics from the INPS performance monitoring team.
The technology used to power AEROS is also being deployed in Wales where the majority of GP practices will be using the Vision solution as result of the national GP system procurement in 2012.
INPS Managing Director, Max Brighton, explained how the benefits of AEROS go beyond performance; "AEROS takes advantage of new technology to simplify the platform design allowing INPS to deliver a more efficient solution. Significantly fewer servers are required within our data centres providing better value for money to the NHS as well as being kinder to the environment. The introduction of AEROS means that we can confidently recommend the hosted platform as our preferred solution for Vision."
AEROS will also be used to host other INPS services including Vision 360 to support integrated, cross agency care and Vision Online Services that allows the patient to access, and interact with, their own electronic health record.

The exceptional climate-altering capabilities of cattle are mainly due to methane, which they blast into the atmosphere during their daily digestive routine. Cattle urine is a lesser-known climate offender. It produces nitrous oxide (N2O), which has warming power far greater than that of carbon dioxide (CO2), the main driver of global warming. A new study shows that these N2O emissions can be significantly curbed by healthy cattle pastures.

Today Uranus turns direct in Aries. A day of passion, insights and intensity. So expect the unexpected today ... The awakening of Uranus greatly increases the likelihood of accidents, so caution is advised. The Moon in Pisces is square Uranus in Aries and this aspect wants to be free and independent! This contrarian energy can lead to hasty actions or premature conclusions.
It is advisable not to make impulsive decisions and to stick to a fixed schedule.
On the threshold of Scorpio, Venus lends a helping hand, creating opportunity for romance and fun with friends and loved ones.

The Cardinals are already bringing in Sam Bradford to be their starting quarterback for 2018, but also are set to grab a new backup, as reports say the team will ink quarterback Mike Glennon once he is released by the Chicago Bears.
Glennon is a rather interesting story, as he was an afterthought with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but then scored a huge deal with the Chicago Bears last season, only to eventually watch his starting spot get taken by Mitch Tribusky.
He was 1-3 as a starter for the Cards last season, with his only win coming in week three in an OT win over the Steelers at home. Overall he threw for 833 yards, four touchdowns and five picks for the Bears.
His signing won't be anywhere near the three-year, $45 million deal which basically was a one-year, $16 million with team options for 2018 and 2019, options the Bears obviously chose not to exercise.

In my 'Bubbly Solution Solves "Mommy where's my…"' editorial review, I explained the convenience of Name Bubbles…particularly this time of year with the various school supplies, drink cups, clothing, sports gear and now the epic ski wear collection! These adorable name stickers got us through last winter with few missing items – the ones that did go astray were easy to spot in the lost-and-found bin! I was thoroughly impressed with how well the Name Bubbles stayed adhered to clothing, toys, electronics and sippy cups!
It's not so difficult for a cute little name sticker to stay intact when items are treated gently, BUT if you've met my little ones (the blondie in particular) you already know that not every item in our home can be protected at all times, hee hee, AND – believe it or not – sometimes even mom is the culprit to the ruin of valued items (not intentionally, of course!). This is one such case…
Mom + dishwashing machine power = shrunken sippy cup.
There is, however, a happy ending to this story – the Name Bubble survived, relatively undamaged – completely and securely adhered to the side of that warped and withered cup. We were excited, um, for the Name Bubble (sorry green sippy.)
~ My momfidence in this product now soars to whole new level. ~
Those who thought I was the "crazy label lady" before just best look out now…I've been set loose with EXcLuSivE, Limited Time Only, MoNstER MAsH LaBeLS…for both of my children. These, along with our new monogrammed "S" packages (for our spooky-long last name) make me the most dangerous, label-happy mama on the block. Ewww, and with ski/snowboard season just around the corner, the adorable monster Name Bubbles will be hitting the slopes with us!
Monsters not your winter fav, check out all the options available at Name Bubbles' official website.
Oh, and FREE Pumpkin Head Labels this month too! These Name Bubble Halloween originals are beautifully designed for the cleanest jack-o-lantern decorating you ever did see…perfect for the little ones.

Cappa Regime
Cappa Regime is a DJ trio composed of Jake Kasheta, Shane Sherzai, and Rob "Electric" Enea. Originally known for their impeccably produce, hard-hitting electro, they are now endeavoring to break out of the "banger" soundscape that EDM has constructed for itself. In the studio, they aren't confined to a single genre, and channel influences as disparate as The Isley Brothers and E-40. They produce melodic, expectation-defying tracks to keep bodies moving and fresh minds blown. Cappa Regime just finished a West Coast tour culminating in a play at Coachella. Their live show is an energetic tour through many dance genres; as they integrate urban, vintage, and modern electronic dance elements throughout, it has something for everyone. Their most recent EP, The Phunk, was hailed as "flawless" by Techibeats.com, and their track Cali Girls was described as "a feel good anthem… pure joy incarnate, and [representative of] some of the best of what electro is capable of" by House.Net. Not the group to be pigeonholed, they plan on releasing collaborations with Moe Green and Del The Funky Homosapien (one of his first electronic collaborations since his work with Gorillaz).
We are Jake Kasheta, Shane Sherzai and Rob Enea, collectively known as Cappa Regime. We've each done a ton of other stuff related to the music industry (Jake does festival production, Shane DJ's independently, Rob produces beats for hip-hop artists), but realized that the combined forces of our powers would be mightier than each of us on our own. We just want to make music that is different, timeless, and dance inducing. Our live show is full of energy, because if we can't make ourselves dance, how do we expect to make strangers dance? Because we are each musically proficient, we are working on turning our set into a live show, but we're the kind of guys that want to perfect it before we put it out into the world, so there's that. Check us the fuck out!
Home Town: The three of us are from neighboring parts of Northern California. Pleasant Hill and Martinez, just outside of San Francisco.
Currently Living: We all jump around from LA to the Bay Area depending on work, and find ourselves on the road a lot. We are becoming increasingly involved in production projects in LA, and aim to move down there permanently at some point in the near future.
Origin Of Name: It's a play on the term "caporegime," which is a mafia term for someone who is in charge of a crew and has high social power. We figure an artist can have the same sort of influence, but in a less lethal context.
Weapon of Choice: Caffeine
Source of Power: Our influences are very broad. Jake loves electro and complextro; artists like Wolfgang Gartner immediately come to mind. Shane grew up on classic rock, and can always be found blasting Jimi Hendrix on the way to and from shows. Rob comes from a hip-hop production background, and has worked with some of the most well known names in the game, like E-40 and Talib Kweli. For a while, our differing influences were a hindrance, because our music would jump from genre to genre, but as of late, we've synthesized these influences into a common thread that runs throughout our music, and ultimately they have helped us create a sound that is unique. In the studio we sample stuff ranging from The Isley Brothers to Ke$ha. You'll definitely pick up on our love for hip-hop with our next EP release.
Was there one particular moment in the recording or mixing process for your Discovery Project entry that made you feel like you were creating something pretty damn special?
We scrapped the song we initially planned on using (or at least postponed the release thereof), and spent 48-hours straight in the studio right before the competition ended. The piece that we ended up submitting was almost like a stream of consciousness type of thing—in that abridged a time period, under that kind of pressure, some really cool stuff can happen. There isn't enough time to second-guess the premise of the whole piece, the momentum has to always be leaning forward; I don't think we would have created a track like that under any other circumstances. We ended up submitting it five-minutes before the competition ended—the whole process was pretty surreal.
Are there any dots to connect with where/how you grew up to your musical output?
We definitely come from a more hip-hop oriented culture—I think that will become evident with our next release. People tend to consider EDM as a genre unto itself, but we try to incorporate elements of other genres to see what happens.
What do your parents think of what you are doing?
Mixed feeling, haha. Of course in such a competitive industry there is always concern from the parents, but they see how much effort we're putting into it, and the validation that is slowly starting to creep in.
What would people be surprised to find out about being a DJ as a profession?
I think that most people would be shocked to find out how many DJs pre-record their sets. We couldn't count on our collective hands and feet how many times we've seen a DJ "ghost" perform. That is something that we are conscious never to do—it takes the artistry out of it. Sure, occasionally we make mistakes, but that's how you know that the art has been derived from a human. It's like a band hitting an off note, or singing a little out of key. There is character there, and it takes real work to become proficient.
What is your ultimate career dream?
We wouldn't mind playing at EDC again, on a slightly larger stage. We'd like to develop a fanbase that enables us to tour constantly, we love being on the road.
How important is it for you to experiment and take on the risk of failure?
Imperative. There is so much competition and so much monotony in the DJ/production market that you really have to challenge yourself to produce something different. I think it was James Barton of Live Nation who said that he doesn't like producers describing themselves as the next iteration of someone who is already successful, but that they should strive to be the best, most unique artist that they can be. That really resonated with us.
If we pressed Shuffle on your iPod while you went to the bathroom, what would you be embarrassed to come back to us listening to?
"Call Me Maybe," but we know you'd be enjoying it.
When you look at electronic music and the surrounding culture, what worries you about the future, what do you wish would change?
It has yet to really settle into a business model as far as the dissemination of music goes. There is a generation growing up right now that expects music to be free, and knows how to go about getting it for free online. We try to put all of our music out for free, but it's tough because booking agents and talent buyers are constantly watching the Beatport charts because it's the quickest, most accessible, though one of the least reliable ways to see how "important" an artist is—a well funded artist can buy his own album to the top of the charts, and many artists that get there organically see only a very small income from it once everyone takes their cut. The landscape is constantly shifting, and we're all curious to see what the model evolves into.
How would you describe your sound to a deaf person?
Via sign language, I guess.
What advice would you offer someone thinking about entering the Discovery Project competition?
Be different. Be you. Be self-critical. Make sure that your entry feels right. We were going to submit a song off of our next EP, because it has an awesome hip-hop name attached to it, but felt that it wasn't the right time to put it out into the world, and wanted to win the competition based on our own merit rather than our feature's name, so we spent 48-hours in the studio prior to the close of the competition composing something that felt better.
