Antwerp Diamond Industry Increasing Security.
Antwerp's Diamond Community and the Belgian Government are joining forces to significantly increase security in their Diamond District amid increasing threats and fears of terrorist activities.
Belgium's Prime Minister, Guy Verhofstadt, along with other key officials have signed a Declaration of Intent at HRD headquarters in Antwerp, Belgium, to boost security measures. The urgency for tight security at Antwerp's diamond quarter follows specific threats made against the diamond trade and the real potential of terrorism.
Local crime is high and needs to be addressed. In 2003, a robbery took place in the vaults of the Antwerp Diamond Center, and robbers made off with $127 million of merchandise.
According to Hubert Appelen, head of HRD's Diamond Office an
Logistics Department, which also is responsible for the diamond quarter's security system. "The 2003 robbery only underlined the urgent need for a new, more effective security program for the Antwerp Diamond Community".
New security measures which include restricted access from the neighboring shopping malls and state of the art security cameras will be implemented.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.

I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit a lot more than just your thoughts? I mean, what you say is important and every thing. But its got no punch, no pop! Maybe in the event you added a pic or two, a video? You could have such a much more powerful blog should you let men and women SEE what youre talking about as an alternative to just reading it.

For what its worth, the layout is undoubtedly wonderful. You know the way to balance writing and images/videos. Nevertheless, I cant get over how small you in fact bring to light here. I believe that everyones said the same thing that youve said over and over again. Dont you feel its time for some thing far more?
