Beds Fit for a Queen Care of Park Resorts

Caravan holiday specialists, Park Resorts, recruit royal housekeeper as 'bed head'.

2011-02-03

HERTFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, February 03, 2011 (Press-News.org) UK Caravan holiday expert, Park Resorts, have recruited a new head of accommodation. Straight from the royal grounds of St James, London, comes Stephen Fair, ex housekeeper of Buckingham Palace. With a background in preparing rooms for guests of the highest profile, Fair is bringing his royal pedigree standards to Park Resorts' 39 UK holiday parks. Fair will be training his team to standards which are, literally, fit for a Queen.

Park Resorts, the only holiday park company to make up guest beds upon arrival, has further announced that Fair will put his hospitality team of 850 strong through a vigorous "bed-making boot camp." With 39 parks in the Park Resorts remit and over 13,500 beds, this is no mean feat. This spirited routine is set to catapult Park Resorts to the front of the caravan holidays leader board, offering a first-class service. At Park Resorts, Stephen is responsible for the preparation of all accommodation across the company's 39 parks, covering more than 13,500 beds

Stephen, known to his colleagues as 'bed head', takes up position as National Accommodation Manager. His new position at Park Resorts is a whole world away from the glamorous gates at the Queen's palace, but as Fair notes:

"Whether it's preparing for a foreign leader staying in a palace for a state visit, or someone on a weekend break at the seaside, the basics stay the same. We all want a comfortable bed made up with fresh linen, and rooms that are spotless. We know how first impressions count so our aim is to make our guests' arrival as perfect as possible. With so many facilities on the parks our visitors like to start their holiday straight away, so the last thing they want is to make their own beds on arrival."

Fair's curriculum vitae is impressive. With a background in the very best establishments to say the least, to mention Buckingham Palace, St James' Palace, Clarence House and Kensington Palace but a few. He has also safe guarded the cleaning of the Lord Mayor's office in the City of London, and of 'The Gherkin' and before that worked in a range of hotel chains.

Napa Technology Declares 2011 to be the Year of Wines by the Glass; WineStation Developer Identifies Key Wine Sales Trends that will Drive Higher Profits in 2011

2011-02-03

Napa Technology, developer of the WineStation, has identified four key wine consumption trends that point to more robust wine by the glass sales in 2011. Today's consumers' tastes for fine wines and vast selections are returning, but taking a chance on an unknown or more expensive wine can be a risk many consumers are hesitant to make. For restaurants, grocery or retailers meeting the demand requires an investment and management of higher-priced or cult wine selections. In 2011 retailers will have to find cost-effective, innovative ways to satisfy cautious consumers' ...

Scientists customize a magnet's performance by strategically replacing key atoms

2011-02-02

AMES, Iowa – Scientists have given us a plethora of new materials – all created by combining individual elements under varying temperatures and other conditions. But to tweak an intermetallic compound even more, in order to give it the attributes you desire, you have to go deeper and re-arrange individual atoms. It's a process similar to what bioengineers employ when they add and delete genes to create synthetic organisms, and it was the focus of a group of researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory, when they replaced key atoms in a gadolinium-germanium ...

Scripps Research scientist discovers natural molecule indirectly prevents stable clot formation

2011-02-02

LA JOLLA, CA – January 31, 2011 –A scientist from The Scripps Research Institute has identified a new role for a natural signaling molecule in preventing blood clot formation. The molecule could become a target for the development of novel and cost-effective treatments for blood clotting diseases such as Hemophilia A. The findings, from a study by Scripps Research Assistant Professor Laurent O. Mosnier, were published in a recent edition of Journal of Biological Chemistry. The study focused on Platelet Factor 4 – a small cytokine (intracellular signaling molecule) released ...

Obese women less likely to complete mammograms and more likely to report pain with the procedure

2011-02-02

January 31, 2011 (Portland, Ore.) – Obese women may avoid mammograms because of pain and women under 60 may avoid the test because they are too busy, according to a study by Kaiser Permanente Center for Health Research published online in the Journal of Women's Health. Funded by the National Cancer Institute, the study was one of the largest to examine why insured women fail to complete mammograms. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the United States, with one in eight developing breast cancer during their lifetimes, and 46,000 dying from it annually. ...

Level of tumor protein indicates chances cancer will spread

2011-02-02

Researchers at the National Institutes of Health and the University of Hong Kong have discovered that high levels of a particular protein in cancer cells are a reliable indicator that a cancer will spread. By measuring the protein's genetic material in tumors that had been surgically removed from patients, along with measuring the genetic material from surrounding tissue, the researchers could predict at least 90 percent of the time whether a cancer would spread within two years. The findings raise the long term possibilities of new tests to gauge the likelihood that ...

IPTc found to reduce prevalence of malaria infection in children by up to 85 percent

2011-02-02

Two separate studies – carried out in Burkina Faso and Mali– have found that combining intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in children (IPTc) with insecticide-treated bednets (ITNs) can substantially reduce the incidence of severe malaria. A third study carried out in The Gambia supported the findings, reporting that IPTc treatment was not only easily administered by village health workers, but could also significantly reduce the incidence of malaria among children. All three studies, published today in the journal PLoS Medicine, will further strengthen the ...

3 trials of intermittent preventive treatment for malaria in children

2011-02-02

Three randomized controlled trials published in this week's PLoS Medicine show that intermittent preventive treatment of malaria in children adds to the benefit of sleeping under bednets and that this public health intervention is best delivered by community-based, volunteer village health workers. Two randomized controlled trials (with over 3000 children in each study) carried out by a team of researchers led by Diadier Diallo from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, London, UK, Amadou Konate from the Centre National de Recherche et de Formation sur le ...

Liver, dietary proteins key in fertility

2011-02-02

When you think about organs with an important role in reproduction, the liver most likely doesn't spring to mind. But a new report in the February issue of Cell Metabolism, a Cell Press publication, shows that estrogen receptors in the liver are critical for maintaining fertility. What's more, the expression of those receptors is under the control of dietary amino acids, the building blocks of proteins. The findings in mice may have important implications for some forms of infertility and for metabolic changes that come with menopause, the researchers say. "This is ...
