Changing the definition of conflict diamonds to include gems produced in violent
conditions (which is another way of saying diamonds related to human rights abuses)
is perhaps the most important-and politically charged-reform that could be made
to the Kimberley Process.  shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

Gold prices last week fell 3% due to concerns over the Eurozone debt crisis, with
analysts describing the market for the metal as "much more fragile" than last year.
In a report by Resource Investing News it was said that resistance from voters in
France and opposition to austerity measures in Greece had caused a drop in gold
prices. shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

Fifty years ago, Marilyn Monroe left the film
industry bereft of her talent and her legendary beauty. On the occasion of the 65th
Cannes Film Festival, of which Marilyn is the figurehead, Chopard is unveiling an
exceptional series of 25 unpublished photographs of the star by Milton H. Greene,
along with a stunning tribute jewelry creation designed by Caroline Scheufele.

this is easily assessed with a quick look at the financial statements of companies

The Buzz About Black Diamonds

We've seen thousands of black diamonds on celebrity wrists and fingers in the last
few years, and more of the gems fashioned into long chains and other types of necklaces.
Black diamonds are often used alone in jewelry, but sometimes designers mix them
with white or fancy color diamonds (or other colored gemstones) that reflect the
light, adding brilliance and sparkle that the opaque black diamonds can't quite
manage on their own. track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic; text-decoration: underline;">

Classroom training isn't dead, but it also isn't the answer for every training need.
Social media tools are changing the game when it comes to employee learning. And
thanks to workplace collaboration tools, organizations can create environments in
which employees can learn from each other instead of the overly formal status quo
or from the proverbial "company expert." shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

Here is a simple principle which, when put to use in your store, will add massive
profits and value to your bottom line. Some call it the Upsell while some refer
to it as the Add-on, but who cares as long as it works? Recently, I called Staples
to order some office supplies for my store. shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

he past few years have marked a love-hate relationship between jewelers and precious
metals. On one hand, nearly everyone profited from rising prices by buying from
the public, a lucrative practice that helped keep many afloat during the darkest
days. Conversely, high metals prices can make the actual practice of retailing fine
jewelry a significant challenge. shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

COMMENTARY Of all the emails I get asking for advice, the most common by far is
people wanting to know how to handle a bad or dysfunctional boss.
Just
last week, for example, a manager contacted me about a VP who badmouths employees
and gossips about peers behind their backs. shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;

If you don't already have a digital marketing strategy, you've at least heard the
term. But, like many buzzy tech phrases, it can have various meanings. For some,
erecting a website constitutes having a digital strategy, while others equate it
solely with social media outreach. shape="rect" track="on" style="color: rgb(153, 153, 119); font-style: italic;
