The Public Health Lab: Infectious Disease Laboratory - Duration: 2:34.

[Music]

The infectious disease laboratory monitors our communities for pathogens

that make us sick. We track common diseases, detect and investigate

outbreaks, monitor for emerging diseases and prepare for public health

emergencies. Most of our work deals with testing samples sent to us from hospital

labs across Minnesota. When you see a doctor because you are sick, you

sometimes submit a sample to help find out what is causing you to feel ill. Your

sample may be sent to the infectious disease laboratory for further testing.

Depending on the sample, we may test for an antibiotic resistant super bug,

vaccine preventable diseases like measles and the flu, rabies or food borne

diseases like salmonella. The data we collect from testing samples are used in

a variety of ways, such as determining what antibiotics will or

will not work when treating an illness caused by an antibiotic resistant

superbugs or picking the right flu vaccine for the upcoming year. Sometimes

the infectious disease lab receives samples from different people that all

contain the same unique pathogen, like a certain strain of E. coli. When an

outbreak of disease like this occurs, we work with disease detectives called

epidemiologists at the department of health to investigate and plan a public

health intervention. For an outbreak of a foodborne illness like E.coli, that

intervention might be working with the Department of Agriculture to help find

the food that's making people sick and continuing to test samples from those

who were sick, to ensure they won't get others sick. In some cases outbreaks and

emerging diseases turn into public health emergencies, when that happens the

infectious disease lab responds by working with the Centers for Disease

Control the department of health and clinical partners to determine the best

testing strategy for samples, to find out how many people are sick and develop the

best plan to limit or stop the spread of the disease.

Every day, the goal of the infectious disease lab is to detect and prevent the

spread of disease so that we can keep Minnesota's communities healthy.

How to sort in Excel - Public Service Announcement - Duration: 5:49.

hello everyone and welcome to this first episode of Excel public service

announcement today we're going to talk about sorting

sorting is a very interesting thing and everybody wants to do it in Excel because as soon as you've

got Excel you've probably got some form of data set positioned somehow and you

might need to resort it in a particular way maybe alphabetically or by values so

if you look here in my file I've got values right here to the left

and I can select them you can see it goes from 7 to 8 and from 2 to 8 here

and they're not in any order I've got them from 125 to 65 so I want

them from smallest to largest so to do this you could just right-click on one

value go sort and then sort from largest to smallest or from smallest to

largest you just have to right-click it's pretty straightforward

you right-click sort and choose what you want and if I say starts from smallest

to largest what we will do is I'll sort them from largest of all my values or

started from falsifiers it's very easy but I can also do the opposite I can

then go and sort from smallest to from largest to smallest and then now we'll

put the largest number on top response one more time and that's great so I can

do the same here with names but notice that if I use this technique

I might go through with some problem so here I'm going to try to start these

names so I'm gonna just right click on one of them and I'm gonna sort eight is

that the A to Z and you'll notice that name was part of it and it's sorted the

title like if it was part of it so this is a bit of an issue so what you can do

to fix this issue is you can select all of the data and choose to right-click

and hit sort and then it's sort A to Z and it will only

sorts the area that you've selected now that's that's fantastic but now we gotta

talk about a real problem so one time in my life when I started teaching Excel I

was with a branch of government that I can't name reasons of privacy but I was

giving a class there and I teaching a bit about functions and

formulas and somebody comes up to me that's working with the pension plan of

certain executives and how it works is that these executives there's not many

there's only a 35 and each of them have different pension dates and pension

plans calculating an excel file and people were getting the wrong date so

they came up to me and they were like gem said what's the problem so he looked

a bit like this you see at the left there was the names of the people John

Doe Jana Doe the hired dates so John was hired at this date this is when he was

allowed to go to pension this is his position his salary and the pension

salary again so this is what the status of John here is and one person was told

okay could you sort this data by hired date so let's try and remember that John

Doe here is in 1995 and so the person followed my technique right be selected

all the hired dates like I showed you in the last example and they went right

click and they went sort and when they did this well it shows oldest to newest

is that what they wanted to do and then a pop-up popped up and they were like no

I made a selection could you continue it and this is where the mistake happens

pum pum pum it's pretty bad you should not make this mistake because now look

what happens all of sudden John Doe is in 1985 a nice pension date is much

earlier and this is really what happened in the government one person broke the

sort like this and people had the wrong pension dates and they were getting

called and told that they could go to pension or earlier and things were wrong

for some time until they realized that the sorting was broken know what's sad

about broken starts like this one is that if the sortis broken and you save

the file and you close it there is no way to undo but if you inside of the

file you can filled it ctrl-z and that will undo the sort

so you're thinking but James how will I be able to sort these collumns

without having to break the sort if I just follow these two techniques you're

giving me one of them doesn't work and the other one doesn't work so here's the

rule if you want you're starting to work 100% at that time like I said in your

last exercise you have to sort inside of a table you have to make a

table from your data so how do you do this well you take your data you select

one cell you hit ctrl-T and when you hit ctrl-t you'll put some dancing ants

around your data you'll know that it's the right area for your data and it's

gonna ask you does your table have header

in this case I do have headers named hired pension Dave these are all headers

leave it be I'm gonna hit okay and now my table is

going to take a color on it's gonna look weird and I'm gonna get these little

pop-up menus and these little pop-up menus are going to be now my way to sort

and if I use these pop-up menus to sort I'll be able to sort any type of

situation so by hired date and you'll notice now it's Simon pop here not

Jane Doe or I can sort by salary and I'll sort them by salary you can choose

these little menus and choose how you want a sort and these sorts inside of

tables will never break and will always respect the validity of your data so this

is the public service announcement here please you have to sort in Excel always

make a table before by using the ctrl T shortcut and selecting your data here

you can look with values and CTRL T. I get ok I get a table again the

thing little drop-down and I can sort with it it works well you can do it here

with the names - ctrl T the checkbox not checked I'm sure to check it I hit OK my

name is there I can right-click and sort from a to Z resent to 8 it works so

remember this piece of information right always use the table feature when trying

to sort an excel you'll make sure that you don't get any loss of data there's

gonna be some more Excel personal service announcements right some

on merging and some more adventures I'm trying to go small series let me know if

you like it in the comments and subscribe to my channel I'd really

appreciate it talk to you later james OUT

The Public Health Laboratory - Duration: 1:00.

[Music]

For more than 100 years, the public health laboratory at the Minnesota

Department of Health has worked to protect, maintain and improve the health

of all Minnesotans. First established in 1873 as a chemical laboratory to test

water and food, today's public health laboratory is a

secure technologically advanced facility able to handle thousands of samples a

day, including potentially hazardous specimens. The public health laboratory

is divided into three main sections, newborn screening, the environmental lab

and infectious disease lab. Each day employees at the public health

laboratory work to ensure the health and safety of Minnesotans. And every sample

that makes its way through one of the labs tells a story about the health of

Minnesota.

The Public Health Lab: Newborn Screening - Duration: 1:52.

[Music]

The newborn screening program checks babies shortly after they are born for more than

50 rare and serious conditions.

Together, with hospitals, clinics, midwives, specialists, and families, we work towards

giving every baby born in Minnesota the opportunity to start life healthy.

Newborn screening includes blood spot screening, hearing screening and pulse oximetry screening.

Hearing and pulse oximetry screenings happen at the place of birth.

The results from these are available the same day as the screen.

For blood spot screening, a nurse takes a few drops of blood from the baby's heel

and puts it onto special filter paper.

These blood spots are then sent to the newborn screening lab, where lab workers test the

blood spot for a number of disorders that can cause serious health problems and even

death.

If the blood spot screening results are within normal limits, we send a report back to the

birth provider.

If the blood spot screening results are abnormal, we contact the baby's provider.

We share what was found on the screen, what follow-up is needed and when that should be

done.

Minnesota has about 200 babies born every day, so the newborn screening lab is always

busy.

Between the blood spot, pulse oximetry and hearing screenings, about 450 newborns are

identified every year with a condition that is on the screening panel and they can then

begin to receive treatment.

Thanks to the newborn screening lab and its partners, Minnesota newborns can start their

life as healthy as possible.

Pelosi Suffers Public Mental Episode Suggesting Trump 'Mow Grass' For Outrageous Reason - Duration: 32:22.

Pelosi Suffers Public Mental Episode Suggesting Trump 'Mow Grass' For Outrageous Reason

For years we have witnessed the chaos of Nancy Pelosi's speeches littered with inconsistencies,

faux pas, and utter aloofness.

This time the former Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi (CA) has hit a new high in her

constant illogical and completely asinine ideas.

In a TV interview for the Arizona Republic, Pelosi said that she is not the most prominent

advocate for President Trump's wall along the border of Mexico, which could have been

promised as part of the DACA negotiations.

She continued saying something that currently has people questioning her mental sanity and

overall well being.

She said she has never been very keen on the idea of a border, but that we should add levees

and technology along with personnel who know how to use it.

All seem to be very logical ideas, except the last item of implementation she added,

to mow the grass around the border area.

Perhaps she meant that it would be harder for people to walk across the border if someone

mowed the lawn.

Or, it would also be more comfortable to walk over freshly mowed grass instead of the thick

brush.

Via Rush Limbaugh:

"RUSH: That's how many times he asked the question of Nancy Pelosi yesterday on

his own Sunday morning show.

Now, here are a couple of bites of Pelosi herself.

I don't know if you saw this, but this may have been her worst performance on a show

like this, out of her league, eyes were just bug-eyed — it was the strangest thing.

She knows that she's guilty here.

She knows she's got big problems, but she's hanging tough.

And I'll tell you over on Meet the Press with Tom Brokaw, John Kerry was nonsensical

as well, and poor old Brokaw, he was so upset at the McCain ads that are being run against

Obama.

CBS had a cow.

The only reason they're having cows over those ads because those ads are effective,

they work.

Exactly right.

Okay, here.

Stephanopoulos says, 'If you feel that you have the better arguments, why not give a

straight up-or-down vote for drilling?'

PELOSI: What you saw in the Congress this week was the war dance of the handmaidens

of the oil companies.

That's what you saw on the Republican side of the aisle.

We have a planet to save.

We have an economy to grow.

And we can do that if we keep our — our balance in all of this and not just say, but

for drilling in unprotected — in these protected areas offshore, we would have lower gas prices.

RUSH: We have a planet to save.

These people are so full of themselves.

They are going to die of anal poisoning unless they do something quick.

Did you save the planet by leaving town, Ms. Pelosi?

You save the planet by shutting down the Congress?

You save the planet and you have an economy to grow?

What do you know about growing an economy?

Every thing that you are oriented towards here is going to do great damage to the economy.

In a sane political world these people would be the biggest jokes.

None of what they say makes any sense.

It's either wrong or flat-out lies.

Here's one more, Stephanopoulos says, 'Okay, why not allow votes on all that?

When you came in as speaker you promised in your commitment book a New Direction for America

— let me show our viewers — you said bills would generally come to the floor under procedure

that allows open full fair debate consisting of a full amendment process that grants the

minority the right to offer its alternatives.

If they want to offer a drilling proposal, why can't they have their vote?'

PELOSI: They — they'll have to use their imagination as to how they can get a vote

and they may get a vote.

You never say never to anything.

You know, you have to — people have their parliamentary options available to them.

But from my standpoint, my flagship issue as speaker of the House and of this 110th

Congress has been to reduce our dependence on foreign oil and to save — reverse global

warming.

I am not giving the gavel — I'm not giving the gavel away to a tactic that will do neither

of those things, that supports the oil — Big Oil at the cost, at the expense of — of

the consumer.

RUSH: Folks, do you realize what she just said here?

May I translate this for you?

Aside from the, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, they'll have to use their imagination parliamentary

to get a vote, aside from all that, 'My flagship issue as speaker has been to reduce

our dependence on foreign oil.'

What are the House Republicans wanting to vote on, Madam Speaker?

Drilling domestic oil.

And then she says, 'Reducing our dependence on foreign oil and reversing global warming.'

So we have idiots, genuine leftist, socialist idiots.

She knows this is the stuff her audience wants to hear.

I go back and forth as to whether she's really this dumb or not.

Every time I hear her speak I get closer and closer to concluding that she is this dumb,

not just trying to speak the words and thoughts that her critics want to hear."

How is mowing the grass going to fix our issue with illegal immigration?

Pelosi is a United States Congressman, and her suggestion was for Trump to mow the lawn.

The fact that her district is in San Francisco shouldn't mean she can say whatever she

wants and it may not bode well for the public relations of her Democratic party.

She has said many odd things in the past couple of years, each of them having their unique

oddness and lack of coherence.

Nancy Pelosi is 77-years-old.

Her family may need to determine soon if she needs help with her aging body or

mental capacity.

The Public Health Lab: Environmental Laboratory - Duration: 2:18.

[Music}

The environmental laboratory performs chemical, bacteriological and

radiological analysis of environmental samples to make sure the water you drink,

the air you breathe, the lakes you visit [water splashing] and the soil your food has grown in, does

not make you sick. On average, the environmental lab gets over 40,000

samples every year. [Clink of glass tube dropped in tray] Testing these samples does more than keep Minnesotans healthy,

the information is used to make sure the state of Minnesota meets federal

requirements [water being poured] like the Safe Drinking Water Act and the Clean Water Act. In

addition to testing, the environmental lab and our partners across the state

are ready to support emergency response activities. After floods, we perform

bacterial contamination testing on well water samples. We test unknown substances

to assist first responders. We prepare and do drills for radiologic emergencies

like nuclear power plant accidents and we conduct special bio monitoring

testing as a part of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's

Laboratory Response Network for Chemical Threats. The environmental laboratory

also participates in special public and environmental health projects to help

protect and improve the health of Minnesotans. [Water splashing] We measure water quality

parameters to help identify conditions that may lead to harmful algae blooms in

Minnesota lakes. We provide testing on watershed areas that support wild rice

growth to look for conditions that may be harmful to this important Minnesota

resource. We use biomonitoring which identifies and measures potentially

toxic chemicals to the body, to help identify groups of people who are at

risk for exposure to environmental hazards and then work with partners to

reduce or eliminate exposure to those hazards. The work of the environmental

laboratory helps public and environmental health professionals, and

you, better understand the environment we live in. Leading to a better and

healthier Minnesota for us all.

Cllr Gilbert talks about public toilets - Duration: 2:58.

Many of the services that we provide we have to provide and some we don't have

to provide.The ones we have to provide are called statutory services and the

others mean we supply the service even though we don't need to. Public

lavatories public toilets are just one of those services they're not statutory.

Consequently some of the local authorities have closed all of their

public lavatories some have closed some of their public lavatories we are trying not

to close any at the moment. The cost of the keeping South Hams District

Council's public loos open is about seven hundred thousand pounds a year and

that's a lot of money that you and I all paid towards. So to help keep the

extraordinary large number of public loos which is 48 open and that is way

beyond most if not nearly all the district councils of England

open which I'm determined to try to do we need the help of pay to use now. The

charge will be 20p and these loos are accordingly 2 at Salcombe, 3 at Totnes,

South Sands, North Sands, Slapton Line, Glanvilles Mill, Wembury, Dittisham and

Bigbury. Now the initial saving in year 1 we're looking to save £16,000 pounds

and in year 2 rising to £36,000 pounds. A valuable contribution towards the

upkeep of the loos I've sure many of you would agree if it was a choice between

closing a loo and paying 20p I'm sure most of you would probably

agree to 20p. But in addition to that we are looking to give some of

our public loos to parish councils and I'm just going to read the

list of whats called transfers to parish councils

the Higher Ferry Dartmouth, Bittaford Ugborough, Thurleston, Holbeton, Staverton

Newton Ferres, Coronation Park, Lower Ferry, Stoke Fleming, Malborough

Manor Gardens, Mill Bay East Portal Mouth, South Brent Shipley Bridge. Now those loos we

hope to transfer negotiate to transfer to the local communities the local

parish councils

Public Works TV : EP.0016 - Fulfilling a Dream - Duration: 6:09.

The pedestrian bridge was installed at the Moscone Center bringing us one step

closer to completion. Our crews continue to spruce up Chinatown and have been

deep cleaning the sidewalks on Grant Avenue to prepare for this weekend's

Chinese New Year parade and street fair. We were out patching up the

intersections along Ulloa Street in the Sunset District, making it safer for

drivers and pedestrians to cross. Urban Forestry staff has been busy reviving

the medians with hardy new plants, chips and a new irrigation system from Hayes

Green to Market Street. Speaking of Market Street our Better Market Street

team is preparing for upcoming public meetings to share their improvements

along this major corridor. Hi, my name is Mohammad Nuru the director of San

Francisco Public Works. This month we are celebrating Black History Month. We had a

nice panel discussion, had a great question and answers with many employees

here -- all in the celebration of Black History Month. Black History is when we

celebrate leaders in the community. It's a time when we celebrate the history of

what black people have done in this country. It gives us an opportunity to be

better stewards of the privileges that we have gained from black people. That is

very very important and when I first came to San Francisco it was very very

hard for a lot of people of color - mostly blacks and Asians and Latinos - to get

jobs down at the Union or to get City jobs. When you come into the workforce

and you don't see a good balance of the diversity of San Francisco then you have

to scratch your head. For me even above the director job or above having a

professional job, it's very very important that we take care of the

people in our community and give them that chance so that we can grow as a

community and we can see people really be able to provide for their families.

Dijaida Durden, also known as Jada, born and raised in

San Francisco in the Western Addition, also known as Fillmore...been a cement

mason for 24 years. I've been with the CIty and County of San Francisco for 15 years.

My name is Norflis McCullough. Everybody knows me as Pooh. I was born and raised

here in San Francisco in the Western Addition, also known as the Fillmore District.

August the 4th will be 19 years I've been here at Public Works. The

longest job I've ever had! Right now my role here with Public Works: I'm an Acting

Operations Supervisor II overseeing the Graffiti Unit. When people come to a

workplace, you know, they want to be able to walk around everywhere they want to

be able to say hello to everybody and they really want to go home feeling that

hey everybody was nice to me you know? When I got here that was not the case.

Yeah, yeah and many of you know that. Many of you long timers, many of you

know that. You know? And through sharing what black people have done through

sharing our experiences through working together with all people we have

actually made this place a better place. Right? Yes!

Yeah, and it's much it's a much, much better place for those of you who were

here. I watched Mohammed come in the door so it was much different before I even

got here. You guys understand that it's so much different. He's giving people

opportunities, and not just black people, because sometimes we get caught up into

that. So, no more, but you deserve some acknowledgement. When people seeing me

work it brought a lot of more youngsters in here that our scene came from

different areas in the San Francisco community and he changed a lot of people

life because they followed me not saying they just follow me but they seemed that

you can make a change and I just want to say my kids really appreciate you Mohammed

because to be honest with you I was headed for death or jail and

I've been here since 2003...we was one of the first 7501s to come here to the program and I'm still going strong! And I owe it to that man. Thank you man! From the bottom of my heart.

You know, we have come a long way and I'm very very proud of all of us you know for all working together

for all accepting no matter where we come from no matter you know what we

have done that we are all trying to do the work that the people expect of us as

one team. That's what I'm about. When I took this job, the number one thing for

me was to make sure that whether you're from engineering, architecture, accounting

or wherever you were from that we were one and that we all try to work together

and I feel so good to be in the hands of all of you and I just want to thank you

for everything that you do for Public Works everyday. I am very very proud to

work with all of you and I'm very very proud of Public Works.

Happy Black History Month!

(Jumoke) I wanted to be Queen Elizabeth...I wanted to be Mother Teresa...

I wanted to be a pharmacist... (Norflis)...and I said, ,man they're not gonna hire me! I said me?

took them a year to call me but they called me

and I've been here ever since. (Dijaida) Love spreads. Hate does too but love does...

So, lead by example.

The Fight for Public Schools - Kandise Luca - Duration: 3:18.

[Music]

Kandise Lucas. Advocates for Equity in Schools. Richmond, Virginia.

Well, generally what we see

is just an overall culture of push-out as it relates to parents, students

advocates. Any stakeholders outside of the immediate school

environment. We just see that culture of push-out

uh that

disenfranchises parents and advocates

and parents. Everyone else who wants to be a part of the school.

So we just see an overall

disenfranchisement and push out of other stakeholders.

Advocates for Equity in Schools works to address the issue of school push-out by primarily

educating our families, in our communities, regarding their rights

educating school district officials,

regarding the rights of our community.

As well as empowering our families by

attending meetings with them, working with them to get resolutions,

regarding issues such as

students being suspended, students not receiving the educational services that they require.

In addition to supporting educators and administrators

who've seen school push-out as a problem

and want to have an active role in addressing the issue.

Well we have a

multi-fold approach.

We believe, once again, educating our communities at the grassroots level

advocating at the legislative level,

in addition to engaging in direct action, if need be

In order to raise awareness.

In order to encourage the power sharing that needs to go on

in collaboration. As well as to just teach our organizations, our institutions

how to treat us. So we have a multi-faceted approach.

Public schools are important because they're one of the most accessible

Units within the community in which

our children can go and be nurtured and be prepared for life.

Public education, education is a human right

and public schools are really the source in the area,

in which our kids can go and receive the services they need

If they operate in community,

in conjunction with the community.

So public schools are very important

because of the access they provide to educational opportunities.

Let's Go! Easton Public Market - Duration: 2:36.

We're here at the Eastern Public Market in downtown Easton. A vibrant downtown

market-- we feature a mix of artisan groceries, along with ready-to-eat

options-- everything from wood fire pizza, to noodles, barbecue, and we have one of

the top ten chocolatiers in North America, Chocodiem

is here. We have a bakery, we have a fishmonger, we have a butcher that

features only local pasture-raised organic meats. We have the farm stand

which sources its produce hyper locally, so, a great selection of produce in there.

We have a wonderful cafe, Fieldstone Coffee Roasters, Taza Egyptian cuisine,

which is something a little different for folks. We have a brand new vendor--

Mercantile Outpost-- which features an array of culinary items for the home;

Everything from aprons to rolling pins to a beer making kits, cheese making kits.

8 Oaks Craft Distillery will be starting a little bit later in March.

It came about because of the demand for more fresh food options in the downtown.

We have a lot of empty nesters, young professionals, moving into the downtown.

If they choose to live in an urban core, they don't want to have to get in their

cars and drive to to get their groceries. They want to have fresh food available

to them, so that was, you know, a big driver for what we did here. The market is

really a community gathering space and we have folks, business men coming in here

working on their computers, students hanging out. We want this to be a hub, we

want this to be a place where the community feels like they can come and

hang out and relax and certainly get some wonderful local freshly prepared

foods. A great place for families, I mean, families love the fact that you can

come in here and everybody in the family can get something different, if that's

what they want, if the kids want pizza, mom wants noodles. Come down here on a

Friday, Saturday night you have, you know, parents hanging out with pizza and a

beer while the kids can enjoy our kids space here. We're doing a lot of live

music on Friday and Saturday nights. Scratch is the sponsor of that. We have

Pocono Duo this coming weekend. We do a lot of cooking classes. We're working on

a kids summer cooking camp for this coming summer.

You know, we like to think of ourselves as kind of a one of a kind for the

Lehigh Valley and beyond. Something that you'd find more in Philadelphia in New

York City. We are at 325 Northampton Street, so, we're between the State

Theatre and Center Square in downtown Easton.
