Time for a third vision:
By Clem Sunter
At the moment the electorate perceives that there are two
competing visions for the country: the ANC's vision of
state-sponsored redistribution and the DA's vision of
protecting the free-market status quo. I know the latter
would argue that this does not reflect the true extent of
their vision, but that is how they are seen. In Zimbabwe, it
is the same duality with Zanu-PF representing redistribution
and the MDC perceived to be sponsored by colonial
reactionaries. Sadly the black/white division is also part
of the party branding among the voters of both countries.
Clem Sunter article continued:
There is now room for a third vision which was originally
formulated by the black consciousness movement and which was
particularly well articulated by Steve Biko. It rests on a
simple assumption about human nature: hand-outs don't
improve your self-worth - doing it for yourself does.
Liberation in this vision means liberation of the individual
human soul to pursue his or her own goals as he or she
defines them. It means, for example, that welfare
initiatives and public works programmes to reduce
unemployment are viewed with mixed feelings. On the one
hand, you have to be realistic about reducing human misery;
but, on the other hand, these actions do nothing to promote
the independence and feelings of self-worth of the
Translating this third vision into a party manifesto is not
difficult. Obviously, the quality of education which gives
young people the ability to fulfil their individual goals is
paramount. However, what interests me would be the economic
recommendations basically to support an affirmative action
programme for entrepreneurs where colour is not an issue. I
would propose the following:
1. A venture capital fund of R100bn would be established
and funded by a one-off turnover tax on big business, the
percentage being determined by whatever figure raises that
sum. The fund would be spread between the provinces and
administered by venture capitalists with proven small
business experience. The large companies would each have a
shareholding in the fund commensurate with their
2. The scorecard for banks would be amended to include
points for setting up a small loans division and points on
the volume of business executed. The same would apply to the
JSE in terms of the number of small businesses listed.
3. The scorecard for big business would include
percentage targets in their procurement programmes in terms
of contracts with businesses below a certain size.
4. The scorecard for accounting firms would be revised to
allow for a certain amount of auditing and accounting
services for small businesses – albeit at lower charge rates
and less stringent standards.
5. The scorecard for business schools would reflect the
amount of training and mentorship that they would do for
6. Rural communities would be allowed to set up local
energy transfer systems whereby local citizens could barter
goods and services between one another without having to pay
7. All small businesses would be exempt from tax (except
for VAT) up to an annual profit of R1m. This would
immediately legitimise virtually all entrepreneurs as well
as provide them with compensation for the risks they take –
including the fact that they have to put their own money
aside for a pension in old age. The shortfall in tax would
be met by introducing a graduated system of company tax
similar to the one that operates for income tax.
8. Labour laws would be simplified to allow small
business owners to hire and discharge employees with more
flexibility. This would not apply to households employing
domestic workers.
9. Large agricultural enterprises would be encouraged to
transform themselves into networks of small farms which can
still achieve the economies of scale and efficiencies of the
larger units. Land redistribution implemented in this way
would not harm food security.
10. Campaigns to celebrate South Africa's individual
pockets of excellence would be undertaken to create a
bandwagon effect with the message that if this person can do
it, so can you. In this regard, I always invoke the name of
Siya Xusa, the young man from Umtata who now has a minor
planet named after him by Nasa for the advances he has made
in rocketry science.
There you have it. My campaign would focus on getting
ordinary people to do extraordinary things with the slogan:
"I will empower you to be who you want to be!" Is there any
reader 20 or 30 years younger than me out there willing to
step up to the plate? You will certainly obtain my vote.

Abbies pummel Falcons in Charlotteotwn
The Western Regals built an early lead, and never looked back en route to regaining first place in the P.E.I. Midget AAA Hockey League on Saturday in Alberton.
The Regals led 3-0 after the opening period, went on to a 5-3 decision over the Pownal Taco Boyz Red Devils and moved into the top spot with a 13-3-0 mark, one point ahead of Pownal (12-4-1).
Alex Morrissey scored a hat trick for Western while Will Tuplin (1-1) and Brayden Handrahan chipped in with single tallies for the Regals. Brayden Arsenault and Chance Pitre each drew two helpers.
For the Red Devils, which trailed 5-3 following 40 minutes, Jason Poley, Andrew MacKinnon and Barrington Duffy found the back of the net.
Bronson Banks earned the goaltending win, and Colby Landrigan was between the pipes for Pownal.
Also Saturday, the Charlottetown Brighton Construction Abbies crushed the Sherwood Drug Mart Falcons 11-2 in Charlottetown.
Ryne MacIsaac (2-2), Kyle Doucette (2-1), Johnathan Gormley (2), Alex Hall (1-1), Alex Young (1-1), Gavin Hickey (1-1), Brodie Weatherbie and Ryan May lit the red lamp behind Falcons goalie Dylan Gallant.

Charlottetown led 3-0 after the hurt period and 6-1 at the second intermission, and went 2-for-6 on the power play.

Take Advantage of the ManiacAugust 18, 2015 - 12:34am
By George "The Engineer" Epstein
There will often be a "maniac" at your table. He loves to bet and raise – and reraise! He does it almost every hand. How can you best play against the maniac; and. better yet, can you take advantage of his playing style?

Dealt a Strong Hand, When is it Best to RSPF?July 14, 2015 - 10:44am
by George "The Engineer" Epstein
Some years ago, I read a rather controversial column in a major poker magazine; it related to holding a strong hand preflop and then trimming down the number of opponents staying in the hand. The goal was to Reduce the Size of the Playing Field" ("RSPF") in order to increase the probability of winning.
4-Betting tips and TechniquesJune 6, 2015 - 11:14am
By David "The Maven" Chicotsky
Sometimes we're put in a tough position after getting 3-bet pre-flop; and rather than calling or folding - we'll decide to 4-bet our opponent. The number one thing I like to emphasize to students when discussing 4-betting is to be precise.
We're essentially attempting to exploit our opponent through 4-betting in three predominant ways:

Build Your Stack Through Aggression
Last week we discussed whether it's appropriate to play loose or tight early in a tournament. I'm of the opinion that there are only so many levels in a tournament, so we should be trying to maximize the profitability of each level.
Never has there been a more appropriate discussion as to when aggression should be utilized in a tournament, given it's the week of the Colossus. Between all of the starting days, there will be well over 10,000 entries into the tournament. The players that make the final table of this tournament will be aggressive players; every last one of them.

Getting Off to a Good Start Early in a Tournament
The age old question, "Should I play loose or tight early in a tournament?" - has stumped many.
In massive field tournaments, like we'll witness here in Las Vegas in the near future, there's a premium for accruing chips. Quite simply, the only people that make it to the final table of these tournaments are the players that consistently chip-accumulated. If we know going into these massive-field tournaments we'll need to build an incredibly large stack, it's important to start accumulating right from the beginning.

Intellectual property has been pushing the boundaries of business for some time now. Acquisitions of companies solely for their patents, patent infringement suits, patent trolls, and even the concept of patent exchanges are all current reality and ubiquitous with the exception of the latter (Reuters). The technology industry is one of the most critically impacted arenas of commerce with regard toward IP. However, one crucial but often overlooked area that has been particularly challenged by IP is accounting. One company that illustrates this challenge poignantly is Research In Motion (RIMM).
Numerous levels of questions require further discourse than this article is intended to provide. However, one such fundamental question is how does one valuate intangible assets (intangible is the relatively broad accounting term used to describe intellectual property, defined as: an identifiable nonmonetary asset without physical substance Summary of IAS 38)? Which is really to ask, how do we quantify the unquantifiable?
This question is most simply answered by simple supply and demand economics. An entity, unquantifiable as it may be, is fundamentally worth whatever the market will pay for it. A question that is arguably harder to answer is how should companies account for these intangibles? The answer is not an exact science. Current IP accounting standards provide partial transparency at best to the average investor, and opportunity for deliberate misrepresentation at worst (Journal of Accounting Research).
Most investors have a basic knowledge of accounting. That is to say that they look at the "bottom line" and other commonly referred to metrics such as earnings per share or various ratios to aid their decision-making. Investors might even scan the financial statements of a company, which the Securities and Exchange Commission requires publicly traded companies to file on a regular basis. Financial statements are designed to be reliable and accurate in an effort to protect investors, creditors, and even the IRS by providing them with relevant and current company information.
Investors often have a cursory understanding of the components of financial statements and what they mean. Unfortunately, investors often do not know much about how the numbers are derived. In addition, the vocabulary can become recondite, and the concepts complex. For those who have more comprehensive accounting knowledge, most realize that the "bottom line" is sometimes not as clear as it appears in IP intensive industries.
Some accounting practices can differ from company, to industry, to country of origin. Although there are national (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles GAAP, FASB) and international (International Financial Reporting Standards IFRS, IASB) accounting standards that public companies must abide by, these standards have yet to adequately adjust to the importance that IP now plays. These relatively nascent rules and consequent accounting practices can actually decrease the clarity of financial statements if misinterpreted or deliberately misused.
Even financial professionals have been shown to be misinformed and misunderstanding of crucial accounting concepts of IP in the technology industry. As a result one such CFA recently valued RIMM's liquidation value at nearly 40% higher than a conservative estimate should have been. The equation used was plausible, however, the data derived from the financial statements was misinterpreted.
When companies are acquired by other entities, they are most basically evaluated using the book value of their assets and the expected returns minus liabilities of those assets (this omits the chance that demand for the company will rise above book value at the time of sale). In accounting terms, these assets are broken up into tangibles; property, plant, & equipment, and intangibles; patents and goodwill. They are normally listed in financial statements as way of taking a snapshot of company baseline health. In simpler terms, tangibles are hard assets like property or inventory, while intangibles assets are things like ideas, designs, and patents (IP).
The values of intangibles are traditionally attached to expected future revenue streams, such as licensing revenue from a patent. However there has been a shift in the "tradition" so to speak. More so than ever the assets of technology companies are predominantly being evaluated by their intangible assets, whereas they were once barely acknowledged. Intangible assets are thus playing a larger role in the market value of companies. However, the way companies account for these assets can play a significant role in the bottom line of investors. Intangibles can easily be over and understated.
For the accounting world, the implications of intangibles have been an ongoing discussion pre-dating the dot-com bubble (World Intellectual Property Organization). Initially the mechanics of the accounting was relatively simple, goodwill being the reflection of any premium paid above the book value of an acquisition. So when a company paid more than book value for an acquisition, the difference was simply credited to goodwill. Then during the influx of IP created during the dot-com bubble, accountants called for greater valuation of intangibles. Instead of only valuing intangibles when they were acquired, it was suggested that they be accounted for at inception and thereafter. However, as some accountants at the same time asserted, it could create opportunities for management to manipulate earnings when implemented.
In a stripped down example, when company X acquires company Y, company X will normally add the assets of company Y to their own balance sheet and subtract the cost of company Y from the same. It seems quite straightforward. However, when intangibles are considered, it can become much more obtuse. Primarily this is because under current accounting standards the costs of acquired intangibles are commonly amortized. This means that when company X acquires Y, X can spread out the cost of the intangibles that came with Y over time on their books (often 36 months, the average relevant lifespan of a technology product).
In accounting, the concept of amortization (also depreciation) is based on averaging out the cost of purchasing an asset over the expected useful life of the asset. Secondarily however, the value of the intangible assets from Y can be recognized in an up front lump sum style on the books of X. So the immediate reflection on the balance sheet is a lessened cost of the acquisition and recognition in full of the acquired assets. While the cost of acquisitions can be amortized over several years, the assets acquired can be recorded immediately in full.
Assuming that the acquired intangible assets were previously valued fairly, this alone raises questions of propriety. And if coupled by the possibility that the acquired intangibles were under or over-valued it brings more uncertainty. What complicates it further is the possibility that a company will deliberately use this weakness in accounting to bolster or delay the appearance of their financial statements, in effect hiding the naked health of the enterprise by turning what would normally be a one time expense into multiple smaller ones.
Research In Motion (henceforth RIMM) can be used to illustrate this dilemma. RIMM is a Canadian technology firm that at one time spearheaded the blossoming telecommunications industry. They grew to prominence by providing communications devices for business and government entities. RIMM provides products and accompanying services largely encompassed by their brand BlackBerry. In 2008 their publicly traded share price neared $150, an all time high.
However, RIMM has since seen relatively rapid deterioration of dominance and arguably future promise due to a failure to supply competitive products and services and to recognize the importance of the growing consumer demand for such products. In 2011 RIMM lost over 70% of their stock price in spite of increasing their customer base and reporting positive earnings. In 2011 stakeholders publicly petitioned and asked RIMM co-CEOs and co-Chairmen Jim Balsillie, Mike Lazaridis, and some company directors to either take (new) action and/or step down (RIMM Press Releases).
In early 2012 RIMM announced that unrelated to public outcry, their rare dual management structure and corresponding persons would be changed. The CEO roles were condensed and given to Thorstein Heins, the former company COO. And the Chairpersonship was condensed and was appointed to Barbara Stymiest. Balsillie and Lazaridis remained as board directors and the two largest shareholders of the enterprise. RIMM shares are currently trading for approximately $15 with a market capitalization of approximately 8 billion USD.
Per their most recent financial disclosures, RIMM has no notable debt, liquid assets in excess of 1 billion USD, and has in spite of the aforementioned setbacks, has been profitable on an earnings per share basis to date. However, during 2011 RIMM made several technology acquisitions in hopes of adding value and features to their products and services. The book value of these acquisitions was largely intangible in nature. Thus, in more specific accounting terms, RIMM acquired a significant portion of goodwill, intangible assets, and what they label as "other assets".
According the most recent ninety-five-page RIMM 10Q filing (2012 fiscal year, RIM Financials), the assets purchased (both intangible and tangible) in 2011 were recorded in full on their books. Additionally, the disclosure details plans to amortize over 1.8 billion USD in costs of the corresponding assets into 2016. In 2012 (2013 fiscal) they plan to record nearly one billion in amortized costs to the RIMM balance sheets, and nearly another 800 million USD in the following three years. Had these costs been recognized in the quarter in which they were incurred, the "bottom line" would have shown a loss rather than positive earnings in at least one quarter of 2011 (2012 Fiscal).
In spite of not showing any direct expected revenues (such as licensing or use in new products) from the acquired intangibles in 2011, the costs were amortized over several years. Ignoring the possibility that the intangible assets could be inaccurately valued to begin with, the amortization in many senses contravenes one of the most central principles of accounting, that expenses should be matched against revenues in the same accounting period. Moreover, given the current embattled position RIMM currently experiences and a new long awaited crop of business developments slated to arrive soon, it is easy to see why RIMM might be tempted to over-amortize their acquisitions, and maintain a more favorable outer appearance for the time being.
From the investor's perspective, this might cause them to retain hope in their losing investment, and hold their position rather than realizing a loss and preventing further losses. In an opposing vein, it is possible that RIMM could be under-estimating the value of their IP, thus showing a weaker position than actual. Either way the already cloudy picture is unnecessarily darkened, and investors need to be extra savvy when analyzing companies such as RIMM. One clear problem is that the lag of accounting adaptation behind business adaptation is leaving gaps that put stakeholders in unknowingly risky positions.
As aforementioned, these concepts and their implications deserve far greater discourse and have no simple or final solution. For now, as illustrated with RIMM, the intellectual property accounting in public companies is failing to make financial statements as transparent as they should be. The public disclosure of financial statements is by design intended to protect investors, but with intellectual property it can portray not only incomplete but even deliberately misleading information.
This puts individual investors and even professionals without esoteric knowledge at risk of placing too much trust in some of the most widely used investment metrics and baselines of valuation, which are derived from financial statements. The bottom line with this ongoing discussion is that investors in intellectual property heavy industries should know that the "bottom line" might not be exactly as it seems.

Do engineers have a ÔÇťmindsetÔÇŁ that makes them prone to become Islamic terrorists?
Researchers in the U.K. think so. They analyzed Islamic radicals worldwide who had participated in some kind of terrorist act. Out of 326 individuals they could find, 78 had studied engineering. ThatÔÇÖs about nine times greater than you would expect to see if engineers had the same propensity to radicalize as the adult population of the countries they came from.
Authors of the report depict engineers as people who wouldnÔÇÖt make good company at dinner or a ball game. They claim engineers have thinking styles that are susceptible to violent radical arguments. Specifically, engineers are said to have a ÔÇťmechanistic view of the ideal society,ÔÇŁ and feel they know the ÔÇťone best way of improving society.ÔÇŁ
The authors go so far as to suggest that traits connected with autism ÔÇťunderpin the political and religious dispositions of the ÔÇśengineering mind-set.ÔÇÖÔÇŁ If you believe that, then engineers exhibit ÔÇťfear of uncertainty and change, impaired social interaction, lack of empathy, and obsession with orderly patterns.ÔÇŁ
But are engineers really such mush-minded cretins? Perhaps the people in the best position to comment on these characterizations are engineers who are Muslim. Not surprisingly, those IÔÇÖve spoken to whoÔÇÖve read the report donÔÇÖt think much of its conclusions.
ÔÇťThe authors have picked up on a correlation but they may have missed the causation,ÔÇŁ says Sid, a Shiite and mechanical engineer originally from Iran. He takes particular issue with the reportÔÇÖs characterization of engineers as people drawn to simplistic solutions to complex problems. ÔÇťIf this was true, you should find mathematicians and physicists over-represented in extremist groups. Engineering solutions are more about developing a feel for what is going on through years of experience and training.ÔÇŁ
Mohammad, an engineering Ph.D. who did his undergrad work in Iran, thinks the reportÔÇÖs conclusions are unfair at best. ÔÇťIn Muslim countries engineering is a prestigious occupation. So engineers on average are smarter than the general population there. They will be overrepresented in many subgroups ÔÇö the wealthy, foreign travelers, and Disney World visitors. Unfair treatment, double standards, and unconditional support of corrupt Muslim governments turned Muslim peoples against Western countries. That has nothing to do with Islam or engineering.ÔÇŁ
And age may be of a predictor of extremism, a possibility the report authors never explore. ÔÇťYou can get a B.S. in engineering by the time youÔÇÖre 22,ÔÇŁ points out Alain, an E.E. from Iran. ÔÇťA person of this age group can be motivated toward causes much more easily than someone who is older. And there are plenty of examples of engineers who oppose extremists. For example, the first prime minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran was educated in engineering and tried to fight Khomeini.ÔÇŁ
My own take on the report is that the authors themselves fell into the trap of simplistic conclusions. Sid the M.E. may have had the best handle on the situation.
ÔÇťBlowing yourself up in a restaurant is never an Islamic teaching,ÔÇŁ he says. ÔÇťIt is more the action of a person who has lost hope and sees the world as an ugly place.ÔÇŁ

After receiving public input on a new land-use plan for Wood County, a steering committee is scheduled to meet April 6 to discuss how to proceed with all the data that has been accumulated.
"We're in the working phase now. That's the best way to describe it," said Dave Steiner, director of the Wood County Planning Commission.
The commission sponsored a forum in February to offer the public a chance to voice its opinion on future growth and development. The county's current plan was adopted in 2007.
The Oregon City Schools District is currently negotiating contracts for the Oregon City Federation of Teachers and the Ohio Association of Public School Employees.
The current contracts expire July 31, according to Superintendent Hal Gregory.
An initial meeting with the union representatives started in March, said Gregory. There have been no offers or tentative agreements as of last week.
Negotiations traditionally focus on three core areas, including salaries and compensation, insurance benefits and working conditions, said Gregory.
Registration for the popular and historical 2016 National Trophy Pistol and Rifle Matches began April 1 – fired at Camp Perry, six miles west of Port Clinton, during the months of July and August.
The 2016 Match Schedule will be different from the 2014-2015 National Matches – returning to the original schedule of years past. Events featured will include the John C. Garand, President's Rifle, Hearst Doubles, Vintage Sniper, as well as a multitude of prestigious pistol events. This year also marks the 20th Anniversary of the CMP, so come help us celebrate!
New this year, the CMP will introduce its Legacy Series: an extra week highlighting an assortment of competitions that feature both vintage and modern military rifles. Each event has been named to honor the memories of important figures in marksmanship history, as well as to commemorate the spirit of past and present National Matches.
Al Thompson left Northwest Ohio on August 17 on a bicycle ride around the perimeter of the United States in an effort to raise funds for Habitat for Humanity and Save the Children.
Here is an excerpt from his blog, which you can follow by going to presspublications.com and clicking the icon in the upper right corner.
Oregon City Council on Monday voted 5-2 against passing a curfew for minors following a lengthy discussion.
Members of the Oregon Block Watch Group met with city officials twice in the past to advocate the need for the curfew. Supporters wanted the measure to go before council for a vote. Many were at the meeting on Monday.
Councilwoman Sandy Bihn, who met with neighborhood groups while she campaigned for a seat on city council last year, has been in support of a curfew.
"A lot of big cities have them. The whole state of Michigan has a curfew," she said. "So obviously, some governmental entities feel this is helpful. In the case here, people have been asking for this for a long time because there have been issues in their neighborhoods late at night."

I am having some nasty problems, when streaming mp3's from my macbook to my 4308a(wireless). After a while of streaming(typically 15-30 minutes) some sort of buffer underrun begins. I am using Eyeconnect on my mac, and my router is a Netgear WNR854T. SSID is set to on, UPNP is set to on. Dynamic IP is on. The problem also exists when listening to internet radio... What puzzles me is, that everything works fine for the duration of 15-30 minutes??? Does anyone know the solution for this? I'm going nuts here...

The front brake rotors can warp and cause a vibration when braking. The rotors will need to be machined or in cases where they are worn to thin, replaced to correct this issue.
Wind noise and/or squeaks and rattles may be noted from the removable roof, water leaks are also common. Our technicians tell us there is no real fix for these issues.

Hey Manny, I was just wondering what Vibrato is. Its been going around the band room and I am curious on also how to do it.
Hey Manny, I was just wondering what Vibrato is. Its been going around the band room and I am curious on also how to do it.
Vibrato is a natural development of a (mostly) subconscious physical technique to help color and enhance your sound. Different styles of music call for different types of vibrato. Some are fast, slow, narrow, wide... listen to as many different kinds of singers from opera to country and western and you'll hear each one do something different. I developed my vibrato subconsciously by listening to the great Rafael Mendez. I stopped using vibrato for almost a year at my teacher's request and when I started again it was slower and I could vary it with a better understanding of when and how I should use it.
I truly don't believe you should bother with the "how to's" of it. I think you should allow yourself to be inspired by what you are presently hearing and see if your talent for imitation is working. Potentially great musicians need to be good mimics when they are young. It's a way of exercising your ears. Do you ever do Napoleon Dynamite impressions? Well, you don't think about how to manipulate your vocal apparati to do it, right? Same thing with vibrato. Hear it and adopt it as your own. you'll develop your own style soon enough. You should be doing a lot of singing at your stage in as many styles as you can. It doesn't matter what. Rap helps develop a sense of pulse and timing but you need melody and harmony to start creating your sense of pitch.
Do you have any opera recordings. If not, go pick up a "Best of" type CD with Pavarotti and listen and when you're by yourself, sing and imitate.
Good luck and listen.
That is VERY interesting. I have also stopped using vibrato at my old tecaher's request! I actually had a problem of wanting to have EVERYTHING vibrato!I stopped using vibrato for almost a year at my teacher's request and when I started again it was slower and I could vary it with a better understanding of when and how I should use it.
So, I wonder now, is this method of re-learning the vibrato common for many trumpet students?
Yes I think so.
First you learn how to turn it 'ON' then you learn how to turn it 'OFF'. Then you learn how to vary it and work out where, when and how much is appropriate.
Manny, I like your analogy..listen and imitate, don't analyse. In the earlier post about the type of vibrato you use as a player I had to pick my horn up and work it out. You know, I'm still not sure?!!!
Sorry for jumping in.
Hello all,
This is my first post. I felt it necessary to provide everyone with a link to help with ear training and imitation along the lines to which Manny has already suggested in his post above. I find it to be extremely helpful not only for my career as a musician but for my daily life and for those around me as well. (By the way, turn up your speakers.) Please enjoy.
Dave Michaux
My wildest dreams HAVE come true!
You voted for Pedro TOO, Manny?
I thought you would provide a clip of Vibrato... i was wrong.
Yes, of course I voted for Pedro... that's why he won.
I won't provide a clip but feel free to buy any recording I'm on. Anything with the MO after 1981 would have me playing.
Seriously, learn to turn vibrato "off" just as well as you can turn it "on." I played with a girl who had it litteraly stuck "on." I sat her aside a couple of times and attempted to explain why our school fight song was the perfectly wrong song to use vibrato on. I don't know that she ever has gotten past it, but it's a little better now (4 years later).
I never even used it until at the request of a band director, and then I just whipped it out on the spot. I was a bit scared of going into it early, and it becoming a habbit instead of an ability.
Good luck to you.

Lots of companies say they're mission-driven, but at PatientsLikeMe, it's in our DNA
The work we do is challenging, rewarding, always evolving, and often complicated. But it's never boring. This is your chance to join a close-knit gang of smart, passionate people who are as excited as ever about changing the future of healthcare. And we're growing like crazy. Join us and we'll make that future together.
Our story
Inspired by their brother Stephen's journey with ALS, Ben and Jamie Heywood, along with their longtime friend Jeff Cole, created PatientsLikeMe as a health data-sharing platform.
Our innovative technology helps patients improve their outcomes by connecting with and learning from thousands of others just like them. In the process, they donate what we call data for good. That's real-world information that helps healthcare companies create better healthcare products and services based on real patients' needs.
Our work helps 400,000+ patients with 2500+ conditions live better, together
We're transforming how patients manage their own condition...
Garth, living with cancer
"It certainly doesn't help me to keep my symptoms or my side effects secret. I feel that I owe other patients my experience. If I donate my data, if I share with an organization that can put it together and see a pattern... I'm helping all of the patients."
Letitia, living with epilepsy
"I've made it my passion to share my story and resources with others who are suffering and/or know someone who is suffering from uncontrollable seizures and epilepsy."
…and changing the way the industry conducts research and improves patient care
The lithium study
In a groundbreaking study spearheaded by ALS patients, we analyzed the effects of lithium carbonate on ALS. Our findings refuted the results of a major clinical trial — an unexpected and unmatched moment in the world of medicine.
Collaboration with the FDA
In 2015, we began a partnership with the FDA to explore how patient-reported data can lead to new insights about drug safety. For the first time, the FDA is analyzing patient-generated health data to understand the real-world impact of taking medications over time, and to potentially identify benefits and risks earlier.
Elevating the patient voice at TEDMED
As PatientsLikeMe's Vice President for Advocacy, Policy and Patient Safety, Sally Okun brings the patient voice to health policy discussions at the national and global level. The first nurse to grace the TED stage, Sally spoke at TEDMED about the need to bridge the gap between the patients' lexicon and the overcomplicated language of the healthcare industry.
We're on a mission, but we have fun, too
PatientsLikeMe takes culture — and coffee — seriously. From our annual Tough Mudder team to our coffee machine with 36 ways to get caffeinated (we counted), you could say we're an energetic bunch. And we stay fueled creatively, too, with endless opportunities to keep learning beyond our everyday jobs.
Journal Club
Journal Club brings everyone together on Fridays for an informal presentation from a guest speaker — we've had everyone from Harvard PhDs to a four-star general.
Office hangouts
It's not unusual to want to stick around past 5 PM — karaoke night, happy hours, and a sweet smorgasbord for PI Day are just a few reasons.
Volunteering opportunities
Sometimes — like helping out at Rosie's Place women's shelter — we take it outside the office for a good cause (and a good time).
Our visionary leaders drive us closer to a future of better healthcare
At PatientsLikeMe, it takes unique skills, experience, and passion to meet the challenges of our mission — which is why we've got some of the best and brightest at the helm. Below, meet a few of the industry experts you'll get to work alongside.
Jamie Heywood
Co-Founder and Chairman
"Our medical system could be better in so many ways and over the last decade my passion has been to find ways to both improve the way treatments are developed for disease and the way patients receive medical care."
Monique Levy
Senior VP, Head of Customer Strategy and Value Delivery
"I'm passionate about reducing randomness in care — especially when it comes to how decisions are made and how we take care of ourselves — by listening to patients and using the right technology."
Paul Wicks
VP of Innovation
"I think what's really exciting is the scale we're operating under... [It's] unparalleled in power in the research world and that is what gets me up every morning."
Kim Goodwin
VP, Product & User Experience
"There are some questions we all have as patients that our doctors can't answer: What's it really like to live with this condition? How can I have good relationships, stay productive, or manage the costs of all this? I'm excited about helping patients answer those questions for each other."
We offer the best benefits in the heart of Cambridge's biotech center
Happy employees, prime location. Discover the sweet spot of working environments (you'll love the third-floor patio, too.)
