			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Besides saving the  money for the future, actually we also can do something else to secure our  future. We can do investment which is holding assets now in present with the hope  that the price of the assets will increase during the time. And in the time you  need it, you can just sell the assets. The mechanism is very easy but you must  only put certain assets to be invested. You can not invest your car since the  price will decrease in the future.</p>
<p>Some of the assets  that you can use as investments are gold, cattle, land and any other jewelry.  Among those things, gold is the best one since in the history, gold prices  never goes down. Gold price is always increasing during the time. You can keep gold  in form of rings, necklaces, bracelets, etc. but sometimes to save it in  those forms is unpractical. You can use <a href="http://www.regalgoldcoins.com/" target="_blank">gold coins</a> form as an alternative.</p>
<p>One website that  sells complete collection of gold coins is Regalgoldcoins.com. in this  website, you will find many different types of gold coin like this <a href="http://www.regalgoldcoins.com/st-gaudens.html" target="_blank">St  Gaudens</a> gold coin. For more information about gold and <a href="http://www.regalgoldcoins.com/british-sovereign-gold.html" target="_blank">gold Sovereign</a>, just visit the website and read the available articles.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to the 4Cs of diamonds, color, or lack of it, is an especially important characteristic. Diamonds are given letter grades to denote the level of color, starting with the letter D for a flawless, colorless diamond.  Why D, and not C, B, or A? The reason we’ve heard is that when diamonds started being graded for color with this scale, it was decided to start with D, to leave room for the extremely rare possibility that a diamond would be found that was even more flawless than flawless. It hasn’t happened yet!</p>
<p>The color grades of D, E and F are the rarest and most colorless. The gradations in color can only be seen by an expert gemologist. The grades G-H are called near colorless and the difference can be seen by a casual observer only when compared to a higher-grade diamond. A stone in this grade category is an excellent value. The grades I-J are also near colorless, but not to the same extent as G-H. These also are an excellent value.</p>
<p>The color grades move up the scale to Z, with an increasing amount of color. These are inferior gem-quality stones and should not be confused with canary or other colored diamonds. Colored diamonds are graded differently than white diamonds and are also highly prized among collectors. They’re especially beautiful when combined with white diamonds. Consider that the Hope Diamond, one of the most famous diamonds, is a rich blue color. Out of all colored diamonds, a red diamond is the rarest of all.</p>
<p>The colors in colored diamonds come from impurities between the cells of the crystals, or structural defects. There are many different colors that diamonds can come in, but they’re limited to steel gray, white, blue, yellow, orange, red, green, pink to purple, brown, and black</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Amsterdam is a major historical location for the diamond industry. Walking down the streets you will see a lot of jewelry stores as well as many diamond businesses with prominent security systems and signs reading &#8220;guided diamond tours&#8221;.</p>
<p>If you go on these tours you&#8217;ll see some breathtaking diamonds, as well a chance to see these stones being cut and polished. And if you have some cash to spare, purchase one for $4000 to $400,000.</p>
<p>Amsterdam has an extended history relating to diamonds, and has been a major diamond center since Sephardic Jews introduced the diamond cutting industry to Amsterdam in the later 16th century. Nowadays there are about a dozen diamond cutting facilities in the city, 5 of which offer guided tours. The tours are free and are usually conducted 9am to 5pm each day.</p>
<p>Amsterdam has an extended heritage in the diamond business, and has been a major European diamond center since Sephardic Jews introduced the diamond cutting industry in the later 16th century. Ultra-Orthodox Jews are still prominent in worldwide diamond marketing and distribution, and urban legend has it they hide diamonds in their beards to move them through customs without being detected. Diamonds are not necessarily cheaper in Amsterdam; however prices are fairly competitive. At least you will have seen the stones being worked, and when you purchase from a factory you get an extensive description of the diamond you acquire so you know exactly what you are buying.</p>
<p>The following renowned diamond stores offer diamond-cutting and polishing tours, and sales of the finished diamonds:</p>
<p>Coster Diamonds<br />
Gassan Diamonds<br />
Stoeltie Diamonds</p>
<p>Van Moppes Diamonds, which was the the 1st company to offer guided tours.</p>
<p>Be sure to sample authentic Dutch food at the numerous cafes. If you have a chance eat a &#8220;brodje haring&#8221; (an open-faced sandwich with salted herring) or try other seafood specialties from the cuisine of this seafaring nation.</p>
<p>The best time to visit Holland is spring or fall when the heat of summer and the droves of tourists have departed and the leaves on the trees aren&#8217;t blocking the review of the monumental facades. The winters are penetratingly cold and wet with lots of rain and sleet. Because of the high humidity, it actually feels as cold as the thirty-below winters common in Canada. Come in spring (March through May) and catch the Holland Flower Festival at Keukenhof.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re over 40, make sure you pack a pair of reading/magnifying glasses: museums tend to utilise microscopic lettertypes for their descriptive plaques.</p>
<p>Just here are a select few of Amsterdam&#8217;s major attractions:</p>
<p>Anne Frank Home (Anne Frank Huis)<br />
National Museum (Rijksmuseum)<br />
Van Gogh Museum<br />
Red Light District<br />
National Museum of Modern Art (Stedelijk Museum)<br />
Amstelkring Museum (Our Lord in the Attic Chapel)<br />
Museum Het Rembrandt Huis (Rembrandt House)<br />
Jewish Historical Museum (Joods Historisch Museum)<br />
Dam Square<br />
Sauna Deco</p>
<p>Amsterdam sail:<br />
Sail Amsterdam</p>
<p>If you love boats, KNSM Island with its shipping history is the place for you. Every five years this harbor area of Amsterdam hosts the Sail event. Every new edition attracts even more visitors (Sail 2000 welcomed two and a half million people). Every edition also offers even more Tall Ships and even more cultural activities in the area.</p>
<p>The Van Gogh Museum contains the largest collection of works by Vincent Van Gogh, the tragic artist who cut off his ear and committed suicide. You will find more than 200 incredible works from the Master’s hand, as well as 500 drawings and 700 written documents. Together these provide a historic insight into his life and art.</p>
<p>Amsterdam is a fascinating place with lots of things to see and do besides diamonds and diamond businesses. After one visit I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ll be so fascinated you will be determined to come back.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Our love of diamonds and admiration of their fire and brilliance has given rise to many different cuts of diamonds. While we still see some of the earliest styles of diamond cuts – such as the round and emerald-cut, there are many more cuts today, some of them patented by their designers and costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.</p>
<p>The most popular cut for a diamond ring today is still the round, brilliant cut. It was developed in the 17<sup>th</sup> century in Venice. It is still preferred when the raw crystal is in an octahedron formation. Even though as much as 50% of the stone is cut away in the process, often two stones can be carved from an octahedron. More unusually-shaped stones are used for fancy cuts, such as a marquise, pear or heart-shaped diamond. The earliest brilliants had 17 facets on the top of the stone and were called double-cut. This was soon improved with stones cut with 33 facets and were called triple-cut brilliants.</p>
<p>In the 19<sup>th</sup> century, with the development of better gem-cutting tools, more innovations in diamond cutting styles were developed. In 1919, Marcel Tolkowsky combined the art of cutting with the science of light and refraction and published his book, Diamond Design. These relatively recent geometric calculations were the forerunner of much of diamond cutting work today and led to other, more precise mathematical models engineered to enhance the fire and brilliance of diamonds.</p>
<p>There are now cuts such as the princess cut, trillions, ovals, pear and heart-shaped. Some innovative cutters have even fashioned star or butterfly-shaped diamonds! One patented cut, the Ashoka diamond, is an oblong cut with rounded, brilliant ends, and requires a stone 3 carats or larger. It’s an exceptionally beautiful (and pricey!) diamond shape. Tiffany has also patented a cut of diamond called the Lucida cut. It’s the lucky bride whose fiancé gives her one of these highly coveted stones!</p>
