Data science

**Data science** is the study of the extraction of knowledge from data. It uses techniques from many fields, including signal processing, mathematics, probability, machine learning, computer programming, statistics, data engineering, pattern matching, and data visualization, with the goal of extracting useful knowledge from the data. With computer systems able to handle more data, big data is an important aspect of data science.

A person that does data science is called a data scientist. Data scientists solve complicated data problems using mathematics, statistics and computer science. However, a data scientist is most likely to be an expert in only one or two of these disciplines, meaning that cross disciplinary teams can be a key component of data science.

Good data scientists are able to apply their skills to achieve many kinds of purposes. Their skills and competencies vary widely.

About 70,000 of them are Orthodox Jews.

European Orthodox Jews established the settlement in 1878 and named it Petah Tikva after a prophecy of Hosea. Because of this, it is the oldest agricultural settlement erected by Zionist Jews in the 19th century and therefore nicknamed _Em HaMoshavot_, meaning _mother of the moshavot_. The new settlement was attacked by raiders in 1886, a few guards volunteered to keep it safe from raiders, in total the settlement had six guards, the last and most famous out of them is Avraham Shapira, his original house stand til this day intact. It obtained city status in 1937.

The city is low-lying. The Yarkon River flows north of Petah Tikva.

Petah Tikva comes second in a list of cities in Israel industrial activities. Many high-tech and communications companies have their headquarters here. The city used to be surrounded by a lot of citrus plantations but due to urban expansion this is no longer the case.

The city has about 300 synagogues, the same number of educational institutions, and six hospitals, among them the Rabin Medical Center.

Several highways are close by, like Highway 4 in the west, Trans-Samaria Highway in the north, and Trans-Israel Highway in the east.

Yarkon Cemetery is in Petah Tikva and is the most important cemetery of the Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area.

Mimivirus

**Mimivirus** is an extra-large virus. It was discovered in 1992.

APMV was found accidentally inside the amoeba _Acanthamoeba polyphaga_. The virus was seen in a gram stain and mistakenly thought to be a gram-positive bacterium.

It is either a viral genus with a single species, ***Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus*** (APMV), or it is a group of phylogenetically-related large viruses (MimiN).

In speech, APMV is usually referred to as "mimivirus". Until October 2011, when an even larger virus _Megavirus chilensis_ was described, it was the largest (capsid diameter) of all known viruses.

Mimivirus has a large and complex genome compared with most other viruses. Mimivirus, short for "mimicking microbe", is so called for its large size and Gram-staining properties.
CocoRosie

**CocoRosie** is an American folk band. The members are sisters Bianca "Coco" and Sierra "Rosie" Casady. They have released five studio albums. These are _La maison de mon rêve_, _Noah's Ark_, _The Adventures of Ghosthorse and Stillborn_, _Grey Oceans_, and _Tales of a GrassWidow_. CocoRosie have also composed two film scores.

Sierra Casady was born in Iowa. Bianca was born in Hawaii. The girls lived with their mother when they were children. They moved to new towns almost every year. Sierra left home when she was around 14. She is a classically trained soprano.

Megavirus

***Megavirus*** is a virus with a single identified species, _Megavirus chilensis_ (MGVC). It is phylogenetically related to or Mimivirus (APMV).

MGVC is usually referred to as just “Megavirus”. Until the discovery of pandoraviruses in 2013 it had the largest capsid diameter of all known viruses, and the largest and most complex genome among all known viruses.
Pandoravirus

***Pandoravirus*** is a genus of very large viruses. They have the largest genomes of any viral genus. Like the other large viruses _Mimivirus_, _Pithovirus_ and _Megavirus_, _Pandoravirus_ infects amoebas. Its genome, with 1.9 to 2.5 megabases of DNA, is twice as large as that of _Megavirus_. It differs greatly from the other large viruses in appearance and in genome structure.

Although the capsid of _Pithovirus_ is 50% larger in size, _Pandoravirus_ has the largest genome of all viruses (2.5 million base pairs).

About 93% of Pandoravirus genes are not known from any other microbes. This led some scientists to suggest the virus belongs to a "fourth domain", aside from Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryotes. Viruses as a whole are not considered to be within these three domains, but they have been proposed as one in the past by some biologists.

Calf roping

**Calf roping** is a sport where a person chases a calf on horseback. The person ropes the calf, then jumps off their horse and ties the calf's one front foot and two hind feet with a "piggin' rope". Then they must give the calf some slack and the rope must stay tied for 6 seconds.

Calf roping started with cowboys. They had to rope and tie down calves to brand them and doctor them.
Ryan Hunter-Reay

**Ryan Hunter-Reay** (born December 17, 1980) is an American racecar driver from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He races in the IndyCar Series where he won the 2012 IndyCar championship. He is considered one of the highest ranked racecar drivers. Hunter-Reay won his first race in 2003 and has won a total 11 races, including three straight in 2012. His mother died of cancer and Hunter Reay is the major spokesman for Livestrong, a role he took over from Lance Armstrong after the cyclist's doping controversy. He is married and has a son. He lives in Florida. In 2014, he won the Indianapolis 500.
Pithovirus

***Pithovirus*** is a genus of giant virus which infects  amoebae.  It is a double-stranded DNA virus, and is a member of the clade of large DNA viruses. It was first described in 2014 after a viable specimen was found in a 30,000-year-old ice core harvested from permafrost in Siberia, Russia.

It is 50% larger in size than the previous largest known viruses, but _Pandoravirus_ has the largest viral genome, containing 1.9 to 2.5 megabases of DNA.
_Pithovirus_ has a thick, oval wall with an opening at one end.  Internally, its structure resembles a honeycomb.

## Its genome

The genome of _Pithovirus_ has 467 different genes, more than a typical virus but far less than _Pandoravirus_. Its genome is much less densely packed than any other known virus. Two-thirds of its proteins are unlike those of other viruses. Despite the physical similarity with _Pandoravirus_, the _Pithovirus_ genome sequence shows that it is barely related to that virus. It more closely resembles members of some other virus families. These families all contain large icosahedral viruses with DNA genomes. The _Pithovirus_ genome has 36% GC-content, similar to the _Megaviridae_, in contrast to greater than 61% for pandoraviruses.

### Replication

The _Pithovirus_' genome is one circular, double stranded DNA (dsDNA) chromosome of about 610,000 base pairs (bp.) Its DNA translate into 467 different proteins. The genome encodes all the proteins needed to produce mRNA; these proteins are present in the purified virions.

_Pithovirus_ does its entire replication cycle in its host's cytoplasm, not the more typical method of taking over the host's nucleus.

## Discovery

_Pithovirus sibericum_ was discovered in a 30,000-year-old sample of Siberian permafrost.  The virus was discovered buried  below the surface of a late Pleistocene sediment. It was found when riverbank samples collected in 2000 were exposed to amoebae. The amoebas started dying and were found to contain giant viruses. The authors said they got the idea to probe permafrost samples for new viruses after reading about an experiment that revived a similar aged seed two years earlier.

Although the virus is harmless to humans, its viability after being frozen for millennia raised concerns that global climate change and tundra drilling operations could lead to potentially dangerous viruses being unearthed. Other scientists deny that this poses a real threat.
Thanksgiving (United States)

**Thanksgiving** is a holiday celebrated once a year on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States of America. It is a holiday that is only celebrated within the United States; foreigners do not celebrate it in their own countries because it is not part of their culture.

## History

In 1620 the _Mayflower_ brought the Pilgrims to Massachusetts.  They made their new home in what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, 380 km northeast of what is now New York.

Half of the Pilgrims died during their first winter in North America. They were cold and did not have enough food. The following year, though, the Native Americans, who were from the Wampanoag tribe, helped them grow crops. At harvest time in the autumn of 1621 they were very thankful that they had a good crop of food to eat during the coming winter. They thanked God and the Native Americans for teaching them how to grow the local foods.

They invited three of the Wampanoags who had helped them to their feast. They were Squanto, Samoset, and Chief Massasoit. The Wampanoags brought their families. This was over 90 people. There were so many people that the Pilgrims did not have enough food to make the meal, so the Wampanoags brought along their own food for the feast.

The Wampanoags brought turkey, duck, fish, deer, berries, squash, and cornbread. They also brought vegetables that they had farmed and shown the Pilgrims how to care for.

However, there is some disagreement over which event was the first Thanksgiving with claims that Virginia had the first celebrations.

## Thanksgiving today

In the United States, the Thanksgiving holiday is a four-day holiday over a weekend, starting on Thanksgiving Thursday and ending on Sunday. Families and friends usually eat a special meal together (usually with a turkey as the main dish). This meal also usually includes mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie, several casseroles, and stuffing. The food eaten today for Thanksgiving is very different from the food that was eaten at the First Thanksgiving in 1621. A traditional food is turkey.

## Controversy

Thanksgiving is not looked upon positively by some who use the day for mourning to take into account the genocide and conquest of Native Americans by colonists although not all indigenous people are entirely negative on Thanksgiving. The holiday is also looked upon negatively by some vegetarians for promoting the eating of turkeys although many vegetarians and vegans eat plant-based alternatives for Thanksgiving.
