Some people build careers. Others build bridges. DJ Patil does both. He is one of those rare individuals who move seamlessly between worlds—tech and government, science and storytelling, logic and intuition. I’ve known DJ for over a decade and have photographed him countless times. One particular image comes to mind: a windswept walk along the dunes of Fort Funston, the Pacific crashing below, the light shifting by the second. DJ, as always, was in motion—both physically and mentally.
Most know him as the pioneering data scientist who shaped the role of Chief Data Scientist for the United States under President Obama. His work wasn’t just about numbers; it was about people—using data to improve healthcare, criminal justice, and national security. He’s a mathematician by training, a strategist by experience, and, at his core, a problem-solver who sees patterns where others see chaos.
But numbers only tell part of his story. There’s a warmth to DJ that’s rare in the corridors of power and influence. He has a big heart, always willing to help—whether advising a fledgling entrepreneur, tackling an intractable policy issue, or simply offering a kind word. Conversations with him are an exploration, full of unexpected detours and insights. He listens as much as he speaks, a trait that makes him both a great collaborator and a formidable thinker.
Lately, he’s added another skill to his arsenal: photography. What began as curiosity has become an art, a way of seeing the world beyond data and algorithms. He approaches photography as he does everything else—with intention, precision, and an openness to discovery. The eye of the scientist meets the soul of the artist.
It’s easy to list DJ’s accomplishments—his leadership in Silicon Valley, his work shaping national policy, his role in defining what modern data science could be. But what truly sets him apart is something deeper: his ability to connect, to synthesize, to humanize the abstract. In an age where technology often feels impersonal, DJ reminds us that at the heart of every data point is a human being.
And that may be his greatest talent of all.

Featured at the monthly folding challenge on the francophone origami forum.
Very good model. However, the folding sequence requiers a 12x12 grid and some 45° creases, the beauty of the result is obfuscated by that scaffolding.
So I devised the above express precrease method, hope it helps.
It's been a good 15 years since I've owned or played with a Rubik's Cube. But then I saw The Pursuit of Happyness a few weeks ago. For those who haven't seen the movie, the Rubik's Cube is featured in the movie. Well anyways, I decided to pick one up and see if I could learn how to solve the damn thing. The most I've ever been able to get is one side and two rows of each of the adjacent sides.
Only problem..everyone had gotten the same friggin' idea. Everywhere I went, I was told the same thing, "Sorry, we're sold out. Check back next week." Of course, I could have gotten it online, but I wanted it right away. So I kept shopping around, calling different Targets and Walmarts. Well last Saturday, I FINALLY found one while Jane and I were shopping at a Target(not our usual Target).
Well for the past four days, I've been playing with this thing. It's been driving Jane nuts. She keeps telling me to put it down. :D Well as of tonight I have finally solved the damn thing. I got home from work today and spent about an hour on it...and voila! Only took me FOUR effing days. haha. But I don't care. It's the first time I've ever solved it....without popping the pieces out with a screwdriver. :D I've gotten really good at solving 90% of it, which I can do fairly quick. It's the other 10% that takes me forever. My goal right now is to be able to solve it in 20 minutes or less.
Now that I've solved it and taken my picture, I'm off to mess it up and start over again. :D
Study becomes easy when you want to learn. When you are searching for solutions. Some people know me as a photographer, but I am also a nurse. As a nurse I am a detective. A health detective, able to see a reason for two seemingly diverse indicators such as trouble concentrating and consuming large quantities of ice. The foundation of arriving at solutions in healthcare lies in the study of pathophysiology. I enjoy my role in healthcare. I like finding root causes, solutions and bringing about improvements in people's lives.
So, if you hate studying, then change your way of thinking about it. Find a way to benefit yourself or others through your increasing knowledge. You won't be worth a damn at what you want to do if you don't understand what you're doing. Those indicators? Iron deficiency anemia. Quick and easy solution? Get rid of the copper and aluminum cookware and replace it with cast iron. If that isn't possible, increase the intake of beef, turkey and beans.

“If you give a chimpanzee a screwdriver, he’ll break it; if you give a gorilla a screwdriver, he’ll toss it over his shoulder; but if you give an orangutan a screwdriver, he’ll open up his cage and walk away.” - Michelle Desilets, Executive Director of the Orangutan Land Trust
Research has shown that out of the 25 species of primate, orangutans had developed the greatest power to learn and to solve problems.

While the girl was solving Math problems, I was trying to figure out how to catch this butterfly. I think, afterwards, my head hurt more than hers.

“Solve” refers to the breaking down of elements and “Coagula” refers to their coming together. In the process of transmuting base metal into gold or arriving at the Philosopher’s stone, this contained both literal and hidden meaning. Esoterically, “solve” referred to the dissolving of hardened positions, negative states of body and mind, thereby dissolving and vanishing negative energetic charge. “Coagula” referred to the coagulation of dispersed elements into an integrated whole, representing the new synthesis.
Solve et Coagula expresses transmutation from base to a finer state, the perpetual goal of spiritual growth and human evolution.
