NYC's diamond district, known as one of the world's most esteemed locations for buying and selling jewelry, has been home to a plethora of jewelry buyers and sellers in New York. Unfortunately, in recent years, unreliable and uncertified buyers have begun moving into the area – deceiving native New Yorkers and tourists alike. As a renowned jewelry buyer for almost three decades, Luriya reminds private sellers to properly vet diamond dealers before selling diamonds or other types of jewelry.

"We have heard a lot of horror stories from private owners who sold their diamond jewelry to the first place that offered a deal," says Luriya's expert appraiser, Fima Kandinov. "Regrettably, these owners find out much later that they were completely undercut in terms of true diamond worth and market value. It's sad to see – however, instead of not taking action, we would want private sellers do the necessary homework in order to not fall into the same trap."

To avoid potentially dishonest diamond dealers, Luriya reminds sellers to take note of these important factors when determining if a particular buyer is credible and fair.

Experience and Credentials
Credible diamond dealers should be vetted members of highly regarded jewelry associations such as the Jewelry Security Alliance (JSA) and the Manufacturing Jewelers Sales Association(MJSA). Diamond jewelers should also have an A+ rating on the BBB or the Better Business Bureau, proving that they are well respected by both clients and business associates.

Note: Beware of buyers who say they are GIA certified, as GIA does not offer educational certifications to jewelers.

Trustworthy Buying and Selling Policies
Diamond dealers buying and selling policies should be clear and concise. Be sure to read their protocols thoroughly and have a full understanding of the terms and conditions before making any final trades. These policies should be a safe netting for both the private seller and the diamond buyer and should not include anything that could hinder a profitable sale and/or customer security.

Remember: Trust and honesty are more valuable than earning a few more bucks from shady dealers.

Genuine Equipment = Accurate Appraisals
It is important to make sure that the jeweler you are selling to has properly calibrated scales and state of the art measuring equipment. Ask to see certifications or receipts when and where the equipment was bought, as well as the make and model of the product. This information will realistically indicate the legitimacy of the tools thus ensuring the accuracy of appraisals.

"When people ask for advice, we say that the most important thing, more than knowing the cut, clarity, or even the carat of your diamond, is knowing that the person you're selling to is reliable and trustworthy. You want someone who has good reviews, credentials, clear policies, and modern equipment. These are simple things you can – and should – ask about when you are looking to sell your diamonds," says Kandinov.

Luriya (LINK) buys, sells, and trades precious metals and gems of all kinds. From loose diamonds and diamond jewelry to gold coins and luxury watches, Luriya has developed a brand that is synonymous with New York's very own Diamond District. Headquartered on 47th street between 5th and 6th avenue in Manhattan, Luriya has been dealing with precious metals, diamonds, and fine jewelry for almost three decades. Their mission is to provide the best prices and service for customers seeking to buy or sell gold, diamonds, and/or fine jewelry items.

PDM-Pal©, by Delta Care Rx, Simplifies Hospice Clinician Participation in Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Requirements

A prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) is an electronic database that tracks controlled substance prescriptions in a state. PDMPs can provide health authorities timely information about prescribing and patient behaviors that contribute to the prescription drug or opioid epidemic currently playing out in this country.

Accessing PDMP information can be complex and time consuming for hospices. Delta Care Rx has recently armed hospice clients with an easy to implement program that fits inside of existing workflow, called PDM-Pal©, which allows for total simplification and streamlining of any state mandated participation. Clients already using the program have reported satisfaction with meeting the requirements of the applicable state PDMP.

More info here.:

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/canine-camp-getaway-of-ny-dog-vacation.html

As of early 2018, the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws reported that 37 states mandated prescriber participation in PDMPs. Despite the obvious need for exemptions from these rules for professionals practicing in hospice or end of life care, many states still expect full scale participation regardless of which sector of healthcare an individual is operating.

"PDM-Pal© is another example of our ability to innovate and quickly answer any unique pharmacy related needs of our valued partners. We had several groups that came to us with urgent requests to help them adapt to the newly required PDMP regulations. We listened, we got to work, and a short time later, here we are with a very competent integrated solution," says Drew Mihalyo, PharmD, President and COO.

Delta Care Rx, http://www.deltacarerx.com, transforms and improves the hospice pharmacy industry through business transparency, innovation, extreme customer service, and the maintenance of vital community-pharmacy relationships. As a pharmacist owned, privately held provider, Delta Care Rx sets the industry benchmark for pharmacy benefit management, on-demand pharmacist services, and hospice tailored electronic prescribing. Additionally, Delta Care Rx offers tools and technologies to simplify essential workflow and ordering processes within hospice settings.

Bridging the Digital Divide: Tech in the Tenderloin Announces 2nd Annual Tech Festival

Tech in the Tenderloin, a nonprofit focused on bringing high-opportunity technology to low-opportunity youth, announces its 2nd Annual Tech Festival. The Festival is being held at The Salvation Army's Ray and Joan Kroc Corps Community Center in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco, from 1-7 pm on June 29th, 2018. Tech in the Tenderloin is pleased to host the upcoming Tech Festival in collaboration with The Salvation Army as part of the Kroc Center's 10th Anniversary Celebration.

The Festival will bring together over 20 San Francisco Bay Area tech companies and community nonprofits for an afternoon of fun, food and festivities, with a goal to expose over 200+ youth and families to emerging technologies like AR and VR, 3D modeling, STEAM, electronic textiles and of course, carnival games!

A sampling of this year's exhibitors includes:

Niantic, Singularity University, NewPath VR, Lifeliqe, Academy of Art University, Mission Bit, WeLens, Novaby, Diginido, Bay Area Video Coalition, Today's Future Sound, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Pitch Globally, TeenTend, GoodSocial and Code Tenderloin.

The word Festival doesn't necessarily come to mind when you think about San Francisco's gritty Tenderloin district. These 49 square blocks are notoriously known for their poverty, crime and drug addiction, but the Tenderloin is also home to over 2500 children and most of these children sit on the other side of the digital divide, with little access or exposure to technology.

Tech in the Tenderloin's mission is to close this digital equity gap by providing innovative, engaging, fun programs and activities aimed at introducing middle school and high school aged youth to emerging technologies by sparking their imaginations and opening their minds to future career opportunities. The Tech Festival is a great starting point to do just that.

Yennie Solheim Fuller, Niantic's Civic and Social Impact Manager says:
"Niantic builds products that inspire outdoor exploration, exercise, and face-to-face social interaction. We're excited to sponsor Tech in the Tenderloin to enhance our social impact mission locally and contribute to making technology accessible to all ages and neighborhoods."

Co-Founders Julia Beabout and June Sargent have partnered with a forward-thinking group of technology companies and nonprofit organizations whose collective mission is to make a dent in the digital equity gap. They have big plans to expand TNT's footprint and programs in the coming year. TNT's number one goal is to offer access, which leads to opportunity.

About Tech in the Tenderloin:
Tech in the Tenderloin is a rapidly expanding, non-profit organization with a glocal focus. We are passionate about making our communities more just (and fun!) places to live and work and where the spirit of exploration, possibility and entrepreneurship thrives through amazing tech that is accessible to all. TNT was founded in the Tenderloin neighborhood of San Francisco in 2017 in response to local teen's interest, enthusiasm and need for tech opportunities.

About The Salvation Army:
The Salvation Army was established in London in 1865, and since 1883 has been serving the San Francisco Bay Area, offering practical support, spiritual comfort and a critical safety net to people in need. The safety net is funded in part by donations from the Red Kettle Campaign which started in San Francisco in 1891. Nearly 300,000 San Franciscans receive assistance from the Army annually through a range of social services; clothing and shelter for the homeless, food for the hungry, opportunities for underprivileged children, alcohol rehabilitation, transitional housing, nutritional and housing support for seniors and relief for disaster survivors. For every dollar donated to The Salvation Army, 82 cents is used to support those services in the 16 facilities throughout San Francisco and South San Francisco communities.

Aladtec Team Will Show and Tell Software at 2018 Police Security Expo at Atlantic City

Aladtec, a leading provider of online scheduling and workforce management software to law enforcement agencies across America, will be among some 750 exhibitors showcasing products and services during Police Security Expo at the Atlantic City Convention Center.

PSE 2018 is billed as the "longest running, most respected, and best known product-based showcases". Organizers expect 7,000 plus security professionals to attend, drawing heavily from one-quarter of the nation's population base within 300 miles of the venue. Seminar topics range from explosive detection and high-tech bike wheels, to data sharing solutions and drone-piloting.

Cloud-based Aladtec software easily handles the complex scheduling and unique rotation requirements common in law enforcement agencies. It enables members to submit availability, request time off and initiate shift trades -- all from a smartphone, tablet or desktop. It will help managers to monitor and meet minimum staffing requirements, helps control overtime, integrates with payroll, and allows agencies to track certifications and licensing. Aladtec e-forms speed up internal approvals and provide airtight documentation. Read all the related news.

Customers report Aladtec improves their department's efficiency, saves time, money, and improves morale through its transparency and ability to provide real-time schedule information to officers and their families.

"We switched to Aladtec because the functionality of the software we used to have just wasn't consistent with our expectations. It didn't meet any other goal besides being a simple schedule display," said Sgt. Matt Kennett with the River Falls (WI) Police Dept. "With Aladtec, we're able to do much more than view the staff schedule online. We can now customize and automate our scheduling process. We can also create, submit, review, and store many department forms in the Aladtec system and we are now able to produce reports that are useful for analytics in our department."

Attendees are encouraged to stop by Booth #523 and meet with account executive Rob Kueppers, and product manager Jaimie Hammond. They can answer any question from existing customers and demonstrate Aladtec's features to prospects.

"I'm not always this complimentary with vendors. Sometimes you get the product and then later, you're like 'Remember when we talked about this?' I'm very confident in saying it saves me 10 hours a week," said Dave Borchert, Commander with New Ulm (MN) Police Dept. "You definitely have a good product."

Aladtec representatives will meet with many customers at their booth and offer attendees guided software system demonstrations. Interested police departments can also sign up for a no-cost, 14-day demo version to see exactly how Aladtec will improve their agency's processes. More info here.

Aladtec has a number of customers near the show venue -- including Upper Township Rescue, Petersburg; Avalon Rescue Squad, Avalon; Stone Harbor Fire Dept.; Great Bay Regional EMS, Great Bay; Egg Harbor City Police Dept.; Hamilton Twsp. Rescue; and Buena EMS, Buena, NJ. Among New Jersey law enforcement agencies who use Aladtec are: Deptford Township PD, Egg Harbor City PD, Laurel Springs PD, Pequannock Township PD, Woodbridge PD and St. Joseph's Healthcare Security.

PropertySense Set to Disrupt the Vacation Rental Industry

PropertySense a growing technology-enabled vacation service platform offering: cleaning, inspections, maintenance, guest support, and linen care to Vacation Rental Owners (VRO), is announcing its expansion through a service-based franchise model. This announcement is an aggressive move aiming to disrupt the vacation rental industry by offering VRO's a bridge between marketing and servicing their investment.    

PropertySense is headquartered in Sevierville, Tennessee and has 19 full-time employees. The company currently manages over 150 vacation rentals in Tennessee with an annual growth rate over 45%. PropertySense is positioning itself as a disruptor in the vacation rental industry with a scalable service platform that provides VRO's with a bridge between marketing and property services.

Founded in 2013 by Nicholas Russell and Boomer Russell with just 8 properties in Tennessee, PropertySense has created a technology-driven platform that brings a much needed structural and systematic approach to the industry.

PropertySense will continue to grow its successful Smoky Mountain location, alongside it's first new franchise opening in the Destin, FL area in late September. More info here.

Nicholas Russell, president and CEO of PropertySense states, "We are extremely excited about our service-based franchise model, which we firmly believe will finally provide VRO's with a solution that places them in the driver's seat, and compliments the ever-changing vacation rental landscape. Our goal is to educate VRO's with regards to the dwindling need for traditional management companies and multiple service providers."

https://jessicapressreleases.blogspot.com/2018/05/jabberjot-experts-say-award-winning.html

Today's current environment involves a lot of Property Management Executives traveling from state to state discussing ways to overcome the challenges of Online Travel Agencies (OTA). Meanwhile the OTA technology has already paved the way for VRBO's to market their own investment, thus rendering the traditional management company unnecessary. Innovative marketing and booking solutions like Evolve Vacation Rental Network provide an unbeatable solution for the property owner who doesn't have the time or desire to do it on their own, but wants to maximize their ROI.

This in turn has created a demand for efficient service providers that operate independently of the traditional management company. Unfortunately the vacation rental service industry is very fragmented leaving VRO's using multiple service providers to overcome operational challenges.

Over the next several years, PropertySense will continue their growth through the franchise model, developing innovative technology and services that will provide VRO's with a single source to meet all their operational needs.
