Father Son Locksmith Store

By Keith Clarkson

Late afternoon, when the hunger pangs started I simply had to abandon my road trip and step out to grab a bite. A large burger and soda later, I returned to my car to see my car keys resting peacefully on the back seat. I didn’t have the spare on me, and I didn't have a clue as to where I was. It was one of those moments where you can do nothing but curse your luck. The folks at the motel suggested that I ring up Father Son Locksmith Store for help. After a quick search online, I found their contact on http://www.Seattle.Neighborhood-Locksmith-Store.com and called them up. To my utter disbelief, a technician reached my location promptly based on the vague hints I'd given when asked for location. It took him even less time to get my car opened up and retrieve my keys. For all I knew, my trip could have been ruined, had it not been for the guys at Father Son Locksmith Store. Will recommend them for their timely and reliable service in Lenexa, MO. ...read more

I must say, I'm very impressed by their service! Who gets an assessment done, and all the locks replaced within two hours? Gary from Father Son Locksmith Store did! And he’s awesome! He even suggested that I redeem a coupon that was listed on their website http://www.Seattle.Neighborhood-Locksmith-Store.com. When the final bill was handed out, it was barely a quarter of what any other locksmith firm in Lenexa, MO would charge me.. I’m never opting for another locksmith again. Gary and his team are the best! Five stars for top-notch service and low pricing!!! ...read more

Need for Diamond Consortia in Beneficiary Countries

It is not always the countries rich in diamond reserves that enjoy economic benefit from the global trade in diamond. In fact, it is often that the locations where diamonds make stops in its journey to become the priced piece of jewelry in luxury stores that profit more. These places see the creation of additional wealth and employment owing to the diamond related services they can provide, and have mastered. This is evident in the growing market for diamonds in regions where they were not traditionally a big part of the economy. They also make up a large part of the supply chain in the sector Before moving on to them, let us consider the countries that have become the behemoths in the diamond industry riding on just intermediary services in the production process of diamonds. India India̢۪s relation with precious gems, including diamonds, goes back centuries. Interestingly enough, India was the only source of rough diamonds up until the early 1700s in the world. It is now left with only one active diamond mine in the state of Madhya Pradesh, but has developed into the primary manufacturing center for the global diamond industry. Although the practice of diamond cutting in India began in early 20th century, it was in the 1960s that it started to take the form of a dedicated industry. In an example of how a diamond resource in one country can affect the economy of a related industry in another country, the diamond cutting industry in India was propelled further with the opening of the Argyle mine in Australia. The Indian diamond industry important the small, relatively low cost rough diamonds from there in the 1980s. It was the skill of the artisans which chiseled these stones to highly valuable pieces of gems and made India a diamond superpower. Around 92% of all diamonds cut today make their way from India, and the variety is huge. the rough diamonds come into the country via diamond trade hubs like Dubai and Antwerp, and directly from the African mines. The country alsoranks thirdon the list of the largest consumers of diamonds, right behind USA and China. Belgium The 2016 report of theKimberley Process statisticsindicate that the European Union recorded an import of 113.5 million carats of rough diamonds, worth $13.2 billion. Along with the import of polished diamonds, the diamond trade in Belgium rounded up to a staggering $50 billion. Most of these travel through Antwerp, the principal sales and trading hub for both rough and polished diamonds. The region, due to its fortuitous existence along the silk route from India, was initially an important diamond polishing hub. Over the years, its role in the sector has transformed to that of the primary place for diamond trade with a high density of diamond jewelry companies (around 1500). These, along with secondary services in the diamond business, cater to the luxury goods consumer market in Europe. Diamonds also make up a large portion of exports in Belgium, generating the majority of all the Kimberley Process export certificates issued globally. Israel Israel had first built its diamond industry around the service of cutting and polishing rough diamonds. The scraping away of import tax on diamonds created an opportunity for the establishment of the first polishing factory in the country. This can be seen as the seed that would later flourish into the Israeli Diamond Exchange, fuelled by De Beers agreement to confirm Israel as one of the polishing centers for its diamonds. Even after a drop by 4%, Israeli exports of polished diamonds crossed $4 billion. Another route to economic growth in relation to the diamond industry is traced to technology sector. Israel is a leader in developing and manufacturing technology and equipment for better and varied production of diamonds. Other countries that have become Prominent in the Industry Better infrastructure for distribution of diamonds and increased purchasing power in some countries has given rise to newer diamond hubs. These new crop of stars in the diamond industry are China, Singapore, Thailand, Armenia, Laos, and Vietnam with polishing industries. Hong Kong and the UAE are renowned for diamond trade. Diamond Blockchain Consortium and the Diamond Industry Evidently, trade in diamonds is a major contributor to the GDPs of many countries. The same piece of diamond mined in one location travels to many other geographic locations, is manufactured, bought and sold in exchange of an array of foreign currencies. Adiamond blockchain consortiumsuch as Diamante provides the much needed trade security to its consortium members. Participants of the diamond blockchain consortium will have to complete their KYC documentation, post which they will be allotted a rating within the consortium determined by a predefined algorithm. A platform like this will cover trading features including regularity of payments to consortium members, and analysis of the regular trade practices. The distributed ledger technology itself is known for the unparalleled security and transparency it provides to supply chains and records of blockchain transactions. Therefore, trade conducted on a blockchain exchange eliminates chances of fraud and trade manipulation, establishing the authenticity of trade and transaction. ...read more

Blockchain is in High Demand in The Diamond Industry, and This is Why

The journey of diamond right from the point of extraction in the mine to the hands of the final consumer comprises of a complicated set of steps related to manufacturing, commercial, financial, legal and regulatory practices. The different stages of the supply chain are largely dependent on intermediaries in getting the job done. These third parties offer assistance throughout different processes, right from government officials to accountants, banks, brokers and lawyers. Before the emergence of this new age technology, each of the steps of diamond supply chain management added time and increase the final cost to the end consumers due to the interference of intermediaries. In addition to this, this industry faced increased instances of diamond smuggling, diamond misrepresentation... All leading to obstructing the government from putting exports taxes on the diamonds, leading to the purchase of unethical, stolen and fake diamonds by the retailers and consumers across the world. Benefits of blockchain Technology for diamond industry One of the most significant benefits of blockchain technology in the diamond industry is the ability to eliminate potential vulnerabilities existing in the present supply chain by means of transparent transactions. Blockchain supply chain management offers the involvement of all parties in the network, while it records every transaction in a secured and synchronized manner. With the implementation ofblockchain technology for diamond industry, no one will be able to tamper with the records, as this technology offers immutable record keeping facility. Blockchain diamonds supply chain facilitates the records of every single transaction in sequence - right from the start to the finish point,i.e, being offered to the final consumer, even if the stages of supply chain comprises of uncountable steps… In short, Blockchain network keeps track of every minute details of the diamond supply chain. Each completed transaction is put into a block which is connected to the previous block. Next step is the grouping of blocks together comprising of transactions. Each block has its own fingerprint which is added to the very next one, creating an irreversible digital chain network. Due to all the reasons mentioned above blockchain is the perfect solution for the diamond industry to maintain immutable records which makes the tracking and tracing of diamonds throughout the supply chain an easy task. The decentralized system of blockchain makes them an excellent choice for a highly regulated industry such as the diamond industry. It is a much-secured network as the ledger is shared with all the existing nodes on the network. This eliminates the chances of tampering with the records as the ownership of the network is not controlled by one single person or entity. Everyone involved in the diamond supply chain network has the permission to keep a record of every single transaction. Any transaction cannot be added or deleted from the network without the consent of all the participants in it. This is how blockchain protects the transaction permanently recorded on the network from being altered, thus eradicating the chances of diamond fraud. The decentralized ledger platform documented every single diamond through a certificate of authenticity, high-resolution photos, production details, and serial numbers. The documentation is done so that there are an absolute auditable database of diamonds throughout the supply chain cycle. Blockchain is radically transforming the process of buying and selling of diamonds by making it more transparent, secured and allowing better access between the buyers and sellers in the diamond industry. ...read more

Advanced Technology an Answer to the Slump in Diamond Sales

Evolution of Diamond Industry Ever since copywriter Frances Gerety coined the tagline “A diamond is forever” in 1947, the meticulously cut crystallized carbon has become such a part of our conscience that one cannot imagine one of the most important occasions of human life without thinking of this rare piece of stone. Diamonds are now an unchallenged symbol of commitment, promise of marriage, and is often the highlight of an engagement ceremony.  The craze for diamond was insatiable in the second half of the 20th century. However, it came under scrutiny since 2000 when the Fowler Report detailed how UNITA financed its war activities with unethical mining, which led to the passing of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1295 that required diamond producing countries located in southern Africa to meet in Kimberley, SA and agree on certain terms to ensure that the diamonds produced by them did not contribute to violence. The Kimberley Process has become an important tool to stamp out sales of “blood diamonds” sourced from conflict zones, and has left producers and retailers grappling to find a footing amid changing attitudes. Inevitably, this has also made it difficult for many suppliers and manufacturers to maintain hold over the supply chain, motivating many diamond corporations to devise systems beyond the Kimberly process to validate that the gems they dealt with were legal. Blockchain- The New Supply Chain Technology This movement to impose more stringent protocols for verification has made way for technological innovations like blockchain to gain traction in the field. A blockchain based supply chain brings unparalleled transparency and reliability to the entire process of transferring a rough gem from the point of extraction to the final customer. The decentralized, distributed ledger can be added on to by every authorized personnel or participant in the concerned blockchain network, and the data itself can be accessed by all. The immutability of the innovation makes it the most reliable, and unlimited, storage for information required to track registered gems in every stage of manufacture, that too in real time. Benefits of using Blockchain Technology The implementation of a blockchain network creates an opportunity for the tokenization of services and products as well, and has gone the extra mile to bring togetherconsortiums of jewelers on platforms such as Diamante, that even incentivizes the participants of different players in the industry in the movement to digitize the operations of the entire sector.  Consortiums like these run cryotocurrency exchanges, where trade in digital assets such as Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ripple, HCX, and DIAM, add liquidity and profitability to adopting blockchain. Jewelry Consortium Based on Blockchain Technology Jewelry consortiumsand development of cryptocurrency exchange platforms are two of few voluntary steps taken by the diamond sector to raise awareness about environmental and ethical consequences, another example of it being the Code of Practices Certification by the Responsible Jewelry Council, applicable to all stakeholders of the diamond industry. Clearly, the demands and expectations of consumers has undergone a massive shift, and measures such as these could woo back the generation of hyper aware millenials. ...read more
