It didn't take very long after the World Diamond Council (WDC) and the Kimberley
Process (KP) expressed their support for broadening the definition of "conflict"
diamond for the first sign of resistance to surface. The day after the news emerged
from Vicenza, The Times of India ran a story stating the Indian gems and jewelry
industry is ready to "lock its horns" over the proposal. shape="rect" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001rKIyLjqCwP1IVvGg6KB3wafijmTuER-MSCFLwuk-syjcWuRWlxmiHneVzkzTR2VFfzhMge3r78xxDtsarmWRorf1SWG6gejq2q68Fcfo_U3uEDZYRG6-P5WphWE41nbPYYUxG0i3SqdMKB5Thl8i9jzirRrd1RbjHW75evGs0Muxmh7FqNhzKaOfTzcrQfiW"

From the instant that brand pages were launched on Facebook, savvy online retailers
have had a single question: Can we monetize the site? Can we take our products and
sell them directly on our page? As jewelry retailers and national brands determine
their online selling strategies and dedicate time and resources to those efforts,
it's only logical that they would ask themselves these very questions. linktype="1" href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=001rKIyLjqCwP1IVvGg6KB3wafijmTuER-MSCFLwuk-syjcWuRWlxmiHneVzkzTR2VFfzhMge3r78wduAZuev9a3TKl84y-TOAK_ecJDIg_jjR55OqgOHYR14dbN4iXoQbGuxvicb6BGGmuGneDzfOAZBFbjIg1KLMzhPyyq0pWbGbVzdrvEXGH7PEdXu5GegVdTHytjiEq4AHi74FOb9cHBWsUcZwM89Y9k_H3uorxTKmkRsNp9a8abLGUcbs3B-QmECRTY4xxDyVFwFU6s0qQ28xHGClcJB167w1v3j3lHQ93b_T_RO7MnM-KIiPhO4yN9ENk3JSYl7pK6TjkOuKizQ=="
