Aftermath Services will be expanding its public biohazard awareness program this summer in Pennsylvania, Illinois and Texas at trade shows for coroners, sheriffs and funeral directors. The trade shows offer Aftermath the opportunity to meet with first responders and inform them about the risks and responsibilities of biohazards in the workplace, and discuss the value of professional services that Aftermath provides such as crime scene cleanup, blood cleaning, homicide and suicide cleanup and unattended death.

Aurora, IL (PRWEB) June 02, 2014

A leader in biohazard and crime cleanup, Aftermath Services will be attending the following events: the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors Association show at the Holiday Inn in Grantsville, Pennsylvania, June 8 - 11; the Texas Funeral Directors Association show at the Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas, June 8 – 13; the David Avolt Memorial Training at the Indiana Coroner Conference at the Sheraton Hotel & Suites in Indianapolis, Indiana, June 19 – 22; the National Sheriff’s Association show at the Fort Worth Convention Center in Fort Worth, Texas, June 20 – 25; and the Illinois Funeral Directors Association at the Tinley Park Convention Center in Tinley Park, Illinois, June 23 – 25.

At these events, Aftermath will share information about the risks, rights and responsibilities of employers and employees where biohazards may occur in homes and workplaces. It will also share general information about the unique nature of biohazard remediation and the work it has performed around the country, handling thousands of cleanup jobs after tragic events, and providing a sense of comfort to the families and customers connected to such events. The company understands how important it is to make sure these types of situations are properly sanitized and will share with first responders how it has developed procedures for the following services: communicable disease disinfection, vehicle/car blood cleanup, hoarder cleanup, industrial accidents, unattended dead body removal, blood cleanup, suicide cleanup, tear gas removal and homicide cleanup. These processes, created from industry practices and Aftermath’s own research and study, have established a gold standard used throughout the nation and strictly follow federal and state regulations and best practices.

Aftermath not only focuses its efforts on the proper cleanup of a tragic scene but also on helping families and others deal emotionally with the event and empowering them with the strength to return to the location, whether it be a school, a residence or a workplace. As communities and businesses face a growing threat of biohazards and violence, the need for continued advancement in the biohazard remediation field is necessary, both in terms of physical safety and emotional support. Through community and industry outreach to public safety organizations, Aftermath plays a role in evolving consumer safety.

Philadelphia eyes America’s 250th birthday celebration

Credit: Charles Mostoller.[/caption] After careful consideration, Philadelphia officials elected last week to not bid for a chance to host the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. And in the aftermath, locals have asked whether this decision will impact the region's ability to host a celebration for the country's 250th birthday in 2026? "I think everyone agreed that the Olympics — while it would have been nice — we faced a lot of significant hurdles of having any real opportunity of getting the Olympics," said Christopher Chimicles, a founding member of the group USA250, which recently formed to ensure the city hosts a large celebration on the nation's semiquincentennial. "But this is tangible. This is real." [related tag = olympics] Mayor Michael Nutter said city officials, after a year of deliberation, decided the city wasn't ready to bid on the Olympics. But next year millions are expected to descend upon the city for the World Meeting of Families, which insiders say will see Pope Francis celebrate mass on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, for six days in September 2015. This presents a good opportunity for the city to pinpoint any lingering infrasture and security holes it would need to remedy in the next dozen years to be ready for a large-scale, and some hope year-long, American celebration, Chimicles said. Sam Katz, documentarian and perennial mayoral candidate and who previously served as CEO of USA250, said the Nation as a whole is not focused on this yet. And what Philadelphia needs to do is to decide that definitively it wants to do something significant for 2026. "We probably were, and I think everyone recognized, that we were a long, long shot for an Olympics for a lot of different reasons," he said. "But we have no competitors in what could develop as competition for the logical site to host the celebration of America's birth. And we are far and away the best candidate not to be the exclusive host for those celebrations, but to be the central host." Katz said he envisions the celebration spanning the entire Philadelphia region: encompassing Brandywine, Valley Forge and Washington's Crossing as well as Independence Mall. He said it's important to engage every American from various backgrounds. "Everybody can be invited to celebrate themselves and the American story," he said. There are two ways, Katz said, that the region can become the central host: Wait for the country to establish commissions to plan the 250th celebration, "which I would strongly urge us not to do," he said. Or, "Simply decide we're going to do it, and. … figure out a way to create the aurora of inevitability that the only place to do this is going to be Philadelphia." Philadelphia, if anything, has done well preserving its history and has positioned itself for such an opportunity to showcase its best attributes and on a grand scale, Chimicles said. "As long as we don't get in the way of ourselves, I think we stand a very good chance of demonstrating that this is something that can be very successful for the city and the region," he said.

*The comparison*

As compared to other cities, Katz said Philadelphia is well-suited to host the celebration because: "New York, physically, has very little left from the Revolutionary period. Neither the Declaration, nor the Constitution, were debated in New York.""Boston, which as more Revolutionary War heritage, doesn't have the same claim for the birthing of the country.""And a the preservation of the assets from the Federal period in Philadelphia give it significant advantages." ____________________ Follow Tommy Rowan on Twitter: @tommyrowan Follow Metro Philadelphia on Twitter: @metrophilly Follow Metro Philadelphia on Facebook: Metro Philadelphia

Saturn's Northern Lights Glow Luminous Blue In New Hubble Photos

Saturn's northern lights dance in ethereal blue light in a series of amazing images captured by the Hubble Space Telescope.

Bright flashes of auroras glow against the blue backdrop of Saturn's north pole in the new ultraviolet images released by the European Space Agency on May 19. The newly released images show bits of time when streams of particles shot out by the sun affected Saturn's magnetic field, ESA officials said in a statement.Hubble has took these images of Saturn's north pole auroras in April and May of 2013.
"Saturn was caught during a very dynamic light show," ESA officials said. "Some of the bursts of light seen shooting around Saturn’s polar regions travelled more than three times faster than the speed of the gas giant’s roughly 10-hour rotation period!" [See more amazing photos taken by the Hubble Space Telescope]

Hubble captured the pictures in April and May of 2013, and they may help scientists learn more about how the planet's auroras change. The photos reveal previously unnoticed details about the choreography of the northern light, ESA officials added.

"Saturn has a long, comet-like magnetic tail known as a magnetotail — as do Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Earth," NASA officials said of the observations in a statement. "This magnetotail is present around planets that have a magnetic field, caused by a rotating core of magnetic elements. It appears that when bursts of particles from the sun hit Saturn, the planet’s magnetotail collapses and later reconfigures itself, an event that is reflected in the dynamics of its aurorae [auroras]."

Auroras on Earth are created when particles from the sun impact the planet's upper atmosphere, creating the green and red lights that can be seen in northern latitudes. The Cassini spacecraft, another probe observing Saturn, has observed similar curtains of light that shine in red and violet on the gas giant, according to NASA.

The Hubble photos are part of a three-year observing campaign with Hubble and Cassini. The two spacecraft have also captured a 360-degree view of Saturn's north pole and south pole auroras, NASA officials said.

Cassini has been in orbit around Saturn since 2004 and is now on an extended mission that will last until at least 2017.

The Hubble Space Telescope — run by ESA and NASA — launched to space in 1990. Unlike Cassini, the space telescope makes its observations from an orbit near Earth. Scientists hope that Hubble will continue to make observations until about 2020.
