Cambodia Wants China as Its Neighborhood Bully
Op-Ed: Foreign Policy
Phnom Penh's pivot toward Beijing has less to do with the United States than hatred for Vietnam.
BY TANNER GREER
In the closing months of 2016, all of Southeast Asia seemed to be pivoting toward China. Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak was hailed as a "visionary leader" by fellow Malaysian politicians for "tilting to China." Thailand agreed to build an arms-maintenance and production center for China's People's Liberation Army, and the president of the Philippines declared in a speech delivered in Beijing's Great Hall of the People: "In this venue I announce my separation from the United States."
Americans have been left to ask: What did we do wrong? What has caused the leaders of Southeast Asia to turn away from Washington and toward Beijing? It is tempting to look for the answer to these questions in the policies of the Obama or Xi administrations, or blame it on shifting fortunes in the balance of power. But focusing on the spectacle of Sino-American rivalry masks the dozens of smaller dramas and power plays that usually escape the attention of Western observers. Often it is these smaller conflicts of interest that drive lesser powers into the arms of the great ones.
There is no better example of this than Cambodia, one of the first countries in the region to openly align itself with China. Cambodia's position became clear in 2012, when it prevented ASEAN from issuing a joint communiqué that mentioned the South China Sea. Long-standing Cambodian dictator Hun Sen has reaped many rewards for this decision: In October, China granted Cambodia $237 million in direct aid, $90 million in canceled debt, and an additional $15 million in military support. Yet there is more behind Cambodian support for China than the size of Beijing's pocketbook. In the minds of many Cambodians, the most difficult geopolitical challenge facing their country is not balancing the demands of the United States and China, but managing its relationship with Vietnam, an undertaking that cannot be successful without Chinese cooperation.
Ethnic disharmony is not hard to spot in Southeast Asia, but few of its prejudices — outside of the Myanmese hatred toward the Rohingya, at least — can match the distrust and disgust the average Khmer feels toward the Vietnamese. Recall how conservative Americans talked about the Soviet Union at the height of communist power, add the way their counterparts in modern Europe discuss Arab immigration now, and then throw in a dash of the humiliation that marked Germany in interwar years, and then you might come close to getting a fair idea of how wild and vitriolic a force anti-Vietnamese rhetoric is in Cambodian politics.
Cambodians have not forgotten the centuries of warfare that led Vietnamese armies to pillage the Khmer heartland and strip away more than half of its territory. Cambodian nationalists still pine for Khmer krom ("Lower Khmer"), a term used to describe both the ethnic Khmer living outside Cambodia and the lands they inhabit.
Without the intervention of the French in the 1860s, which transformed Cambodia into a French protectorate and southern Vietnam into a French colony, Cambodia would have been totally swallowed by the Vietnamese maw. French imperialism brought peace, but not harmony: Relations between the two groups only worsened under colonial control, as the French gave the Vietnamese a privileged status, and imperial policy supported Vietnamese migration to the Cambodian heartland. The subsequent governments that came to power in post-colonial times — the Sisowath, Lon Nol, and Khmer Rouge regimes — relied on anti-Vietnamese rhetoric to legitimize their rule to the Cambodian people.
Historically informed Cambodians are quick to point out that the Khmer Rouge was a creation of the Viet Cong; the more conspiratorial of their countrymen insist that the Khmer Rouge's massacres were directed by them as well. Conspiratorial or not, Cambodians remember that 150,000 Vietnamese soldiers invaded Cambodia in 1978 and then occupied their country as foreign conquerors for the next 10 years. Though that decade-long war was not entirely the fault of the Vietnamese (China, Thailand, and the United States would support their own armed proxies), the violence of Vietnam's counterinsurgency operations slowly eroded what goodwill they had earned by removing the Khmer Rouge from power.
During this time the spigot of Vietnamese migrants moving into Cambodia was opened once again, sharpening fears that Vietnam sought to permanently subvert Khmer autonomy. Although both Vietnamese immigration and government influence has waned since Hanoi ordered its troops to withdraw from Cambodian territory, distrust of Vietnam's government and disgust toward Cambodia's Vietnamese minority remain. You can see this even in the Khmer communities of the United States.
To walk the streets of an American Cambodiatown is to see a half-dozen posters warning of Vietnamese aggression, or (if you speak Khmer) be pressed to attend activist get-togethers or donate to help fight Vietnamese imperialism.
To walk the streets of an American Cambodiatown is to see a half-dozen posters warning of Vietnamese aggression, or (if you speak Khmer) be pressed to attend activist get-togethers or donate to help fight Vietnamese imperialism.Many of these donations go straight into the coffers of the Cambodia National Rescue Party (CNRP), the opposition to Hun Sen's ruling regime. The CNRP faces a stacked deck when squaring off against hostile authorities, but anti-Vietnamese agitation is a game they can't lose. When the Vietnamese overthrew the Khmer Rouge, the man they chose to head their new puppet regime was none other than Hun Sen. The party he now heads is a direct descendant of the party the Vietnamese created to rule Cambodia. While Westerners sometimes call Hun Sen a Chinese puppet, his domestic enemies are far more likely to attack him as a Vietnamese figurehead.
His regime's abuses are regularly blamed on Vietnamese designs — I have friends who insist that the soldiers who broke up the January 2014 election protests were all Viet — and everything from the prime minister's fluency in Vietnamese to his refusal to deport all ethnic Vietnamese from Cambodia is used as irrefutable proof of his traitorous intent.
There is a kernel of truth behind these accusations. Hun Sen has worked hard to nip anti-Vietnamese sentiment before it grows to explosive (or violent) levels, and he has proven extremely hesitant to rock the boat with his old — and far more powerful — patrons in Hanoi.
Hun Sen no longer tolerates organized attempts to use anti-Vietnamese rhetoric against him. Last month, in response to a 2016 CNRP media campaign designed to expose Vietnamese incursions into Cambodian territory, Sam Rainsy, former head of the CNRP, and Sok Hor, a CNRP senator, were sentenced to five and seven years in jail, respectively. Likewise, Hanoi still has a powerful voice in Cambodian affairs. The Vietnamese state-owned enterprise Viettel operates the only Cambodian telecom company whose coverage reaches across the entire country, Phnom Penh constantly needles away at boosting cross-border trade and investment with Vietnam, illegal Vietnamese logging and smuggling operations are tacitly sanctioned by the government, and with the occasional diplomatic warning aside, the government turns a blind eye to Vietnamese construction near the areas where the two countries' border has not been clearly demarcated.
However, Viet-Cambodian relations are no longer what journalist Sebastian Strangio labeled the "quasi-colonial relationship" of Hun Sen's early years. Hun Sen is no longer accompanied by Vietnamese minders while on government business, nor must he report his decisions to Vietnamese commanders. It is within this context that Sino-Cambodian relations must be understood. In geopolitical terms, Beijing's flowering relationship with Phnom Penh is a powerful check on Cambodia's neighbors.
The United States, a longtime ally of the Thais and newfound courter of Vietnamese affection, could not be trusted to put Cambodian interests above the other powers in the region. In Beijing, the Cambodians see a more reliable great power — an ally that not only has a fractious relationship with Cambodia's traditional enemy, but one that has demonstrated a willingness to go to war with that country to preserve a favorable balance of power in Southeast Asia. Indeed, the last war China waged was not only against the Vietnamese, it was against them in defense of Cambodia. Beijing's decision to send troops across Vietnam's northern border as the bulk of the Vietnamese army was fighting an insurgency in Cambodia, and then to keep a threatening military presence on that border through the next decade, badly hampered the Vietnamese push to become the premier armed power in Southeast Asia. For Cambodia, the strategic benefits of friendship with China could not be clearer. Playing spoiler in ASEAN meetings is a small price to pay to guarantee this friendship.
In Cambodian terms, Hun Sen's decision to tilt Cambodian foreign policy toward Beijing is quite moderate. Other voices in Cambodian politics advocate even closer ties to China in hopes of generating more leverage vis-à-vis the Vietnamese. Rainsy declared in 2014 to a group of CNRP party supporters that his party is "on the side of China, and we support China in fighting against Vietnam over the South China Sea issue. … The islands belong to China, but the Viets are trying to occupy them, because the Viets are very bad." He would later defend these comments in a post on his Facebook page, arguing, "when it comes to ensuring the survival of Cambodia as an independent nation, there is a saying as old as the world: the enemy of my enemy is my friend."
The CNRP, acutely aware of its image in Western circles, has since distanced itself from Rainsy's comments, but his logic is solid. If Vietnam truly does threaten the sovereignty of Cambodia, closer relations with China is a geopolitical imperative. Cambodia's politicians have depended, since French colonialism if not earlier, on foreign sponsors. But being tarred as a friend of the Vietnamese is the most toxic slur in Cambodian politics. For Hun Sen or Rainsy, leaning toward China doesn't send a message of dependence on Beijing, but of hostility toward Hanoi.
Even radical changes in Cambodia's internal politics are unlikely to produce a revolution in Cambodia's foreign relations. Hun Sen's patronage machine requires huge influxes of money to maintain. China provides that. It does so without asking Hun Sen to protect the liberties of average Cambodians in return. But even if the machine were to fall apart and the opposition were to rise to power, Cambodia's new leaders would face strong political pressure to give Beijing pride of place.
Cambodia is a small country tucked between its historical enemies. The grip anti-Vietnamese sentiment has on the Cambodian masses only strengthens this geopolitical anxiety. As long as Cambodian nationalism defines itself in opposition to the Vietnamese, Cambodian politicians will never stop searching for a great power that can stand as a bulwark against Vietnam. For the foreseeable future, that country will be China. Next to this, the perceived balance of power between China and the United States will never be anything more than a sideshow.

A couple of weeks back I had the privilege of meeting Max as he held two presentations on the same day. I especially love his skills on talking to people and making that immediate impact. And it fascinates me how he talks about technology without talking about technology. Instead you feel that he talks about life in general, dreams and habits and how you can go about to follow your dream. Max is just one of those guys who shares his knowledge with you because he wants you to succeed, even though he never met you before.
Max Ogles spoke about a very exciting topic, "How to create good habits with psychology and technology." It is very interesting and pleasant to listen to him, and I like the way he presents his knowledge—through good examples that explain the context in a simple way. He had some good observations that got me to think through the subject, and what we possibly can do to create new habits.
I was looking forward to Max's presentation since it is similar to what we try to do with games and storytelling at AbleMagic. Some of the key pointers I learned were: 1) Using motivation and ability in behavior change and how to balance between them. 2) The significance of relapse. Since the presentation, I like to tell people about relapse. That we humans tend to have a time when we fall back to old behavior patterns. And need to be distracted or guided away. And that this is a personal thing. I was engaged to learn more, to find out how we can engage and personalize it.
When: You watch the event anytime, at your convenience.
Where: Online, via your own computer anywhere with Internet.
Length: 60 minute workshop, followed by 20 minute Q&A.

If there was ever a player that left Chicago for Winnipeg that would be considered The Prodigal Son, it would be Bobby Hull.
In 2009-10, Ladd was a 23-year-old winger coming of a regular season that wasn't trending in the right direction. After a career-best 49 points in 2008-09, his first full season in Chicago, Ladd took a step back to 38 points while more than doubling his penalty minutes from 28 in 2008-09 to 67 the following year.
But during that postseason, Ladd was a key part of the Hawks' run to the Stanley Cup. Playing through injuries, he scored three goals and added three assists in 19 playoff appearances. He was big, young, fast and his name now appeared twice on the Cup. Certainly the Hawks would hang on to him… right?
When free agency began, and the Blackhawks started assessing how much their core players were going to cost.
Ladd was a restricted free agent who had posted 33 goals in the previous two seasons. Based on his two rings and leadership, he was in line to get a nice raise from either the organization or a third party arbitrator. The Hawks decided they couldn't afford whatever his new salary would be, and pulled the trigger.
Ladd was the last man dealt out of town. On July 1, Ladd was traded to then-Atlanta for defenseman Ivan Vishnevskiy and a 2012 second round pick.
The trade of Ladd came before Niklas Hjalmarsson signed his offer sheet, and before Antti Niemi's arbitration award was too much for the Hawks. Neither of those events had much/any impact on the Ladd trade.
At the time of the trade, the Blackhawks didn't know what they had in then-college-freshman Nick Leddy. They also hadn't shown (and still haven't shown) any confidence that AHL All-Star Brian Connelly would ever see the NHL. Vishnevskiy was young, had some NHL experience, and was a puck-moving defenseman. He was brought in to fill a perceived need.
Ladd was given a one-year deal by Atlanta worth $2.35M last year, and was named the captain of the Thrashers. He established career highs with 29 goals and 59 points; Ladd was given increased opportunity in Atlanta, and took advantage. He became the player many had expected he could become one day.
Now, Ladd is the 25-year-old captain of the Winnipeg Jets. He is playing in the first year of a five-year, $22M contract and hopes to get Winnipeg into the playoffs in the next couple years.
From Chicago's perspective, the trade is still grading as incomplete.
Vishnevskiy has been surpassed by a number of defensemen in the organization, and he has since left Rockford for Russia. He had no impact on the organization.
The second round pick that was acquired in the deal became the 36th overall pick in the 2011 Draft, which GM Stan Bowman used on defenseman Adam Clendening. He's a good, young defenseman that could factor into the future of the blue line in Chicago.
Right now, however, Chicago fans look at a 6'3, 205-pound forward that can fly up and down the ice and put up 60 points as the greatest casualty of the salary cap cutting that had to be done during the post-Cup summer of 2010. Ladd was a fantastic role player for the Blackhawks, and has been even better in Winnipeg.
I totally agree. Ladd was by far the hardest one to see traded away. He has a lot of the intangibles that were sorely missed last season. I don't think he's nearing his peak as a point producer, and has shown leadership qualities. He's also battle-tested in the biggest games a player can compete in. I wish him all the best. He should have been a long-time Blackhawk.
While most were crying over the loss of Byfuglien I just kept saying that Ladd was the biggest loss. Ladd is not great at one thing, but good at everything. He can score, hit, kill penalties, and be a leader. Most importantly he has won twice in his young career.
Ladd definitely is the one who got away and in hindsight is definitely the worst of the cap clearing deals. However, I think it is important to note that he was the last of the deals (Barker sent off mid-season, Versteeg and Buff were in the week leading up to the draft). Typically, sell offs happen pre-draft for picks, so the fact that Ladd was traded post-draft is not insignificant.
Also, Stan knew he could only pay either Ladd or Hammer (and hoped he had enough $ left over for Niemi). Show me how they would have been able to keep both Ladd and Hammer even without the offer sheet? It would have been impossible, they couldn't even fit Marty Reasoner's salary!!!
And finally, like Buff, the Hawks were also considering the inability to retain Ladd beyond the 2010-2011 season. He had a great year, and got paid for it. Even without Campbell's contract (which a year ago Stan didn't even dream of having the ability to get rid of), we couldn't fit his $4.4M under the cap for the 2011-2012 season.
You can fault the Hawks for not picking the right guy to keep, but you can't dispute the fact that they could not keep more than one of Hammer, Buff, Versteeg, and Ladd. And frankly, given the lack of organizational depth beyond the top 3 D a year ago, I really can't blame them for keeping Hammer over Ladd (especially while retaining the then emerging Brouwer).
Wow. While I agree Ladd is a gigantic loss, and one of the worst we've had to endure as an extremely loyal fans of our teams, I have to disagree with everyone on this. Byfuglien was the biggest loss. And the second biggest loss was Niemi. Arguments could be made for either of them being MVP during the Cup run.
Big Byf notched 11 goals (tied team lead) and 6 PP goals (tied team lead), and had 5 game-winning goals in the playoffs. Not only that, but he played the Rodman role all season – and especially well in the playoffs – by taking out the opponents' best big guy in each series. Imagine that, a Rodman who can score and WIN games, and plays his best hockey when it counts. How is he not the biggest guy to get away? He was the biggest impact player on the team that won it all. One of the worst feeling I've ever had as a fan came when he was gone.
Niemi backstopped us to the f'ing Cup. The Hawks should have paid him. They saved 1.25M and got Turco. Crawford has stepped up and been amazing, but with all due respect to him, Niemi should've been signed for a long-term deal. He had up and down games through the playoffs, as every goalie does, but was amazing at times. He kept us in so many games long enough for our guys to win them.
Ladd was a major loss. He was not a great PKer, but was good with the man advantage. I would best describe it as this. We essentially gave up on Ladd (due to the Hammer deal) and Brower being in Chicago and under contractual control. Ladd and Brower are similar type players, but Ladd is just better. It is unfortunate we couldn't retain him.
I am torn on the Niemi deal. We didn't know what we had with Crawford and Crawford was excellent in the VAN series last year. He was the best goalie on the ice throughout that series. However, where I think Crawford is consistently better than Niemi I saw Niemi's great streaks. When Niemi was on, he was better than Crawford's best. Niemi won us games in '09, Crawford played great in '10 and we still lost meaning he couldn't win us a game by himself.
The biggest problem with losing Ladd, and why he was the hardest one to see go was…the Blackhawks still cannot find a decent #2 center. Ladd would play on the Kane/Hossa line and we wouldn't have to continue year #2 of that search.
Ladd was a significant loss; he would be a strong contributor in so many facets of the game now. In hindsight, it was OK to lose Buff and Versteeg as I don't think they had the overall discipline either on or off the ice and that proved to be one of the catalysts for their eventual departure; that and salary considerations.
If Ladd stays on the roster, Hawks go deep in the playoffs last year. The absolute toughest loss of the salary cap.
One of the best highlights from the 2010 regular season was when he KO'ed Kessler.


I bought the original Jenn's coupon box, in black, in 2013 and it has made my couponing life so easy! Clipping and putting coupons away is a breeze as I don't have to fold coupons in order to file them away in a binder with limited space! I also don't have to turn pages to figure out which little section to file them away in!
Let me give you my honest opinion in regards to the new coupon box line, and how easy it is to DITCH THE BINDER and use a Jenn's coupon box!
The 2016 coupon box comes in black, purple and teal, absolutely beautiful colors and very durable.
The original box was 14.5" long by 8.5" wide and still only 6" tall!
The new box is 15" long, 5.5' wide and 6" tall!
As you can see there is a significant different in the width of the box and boy does it make a difference!
The center is now elasticated and buttoned, this keeps the dividers in place, which in turn keeps the coupons in place. It allows the me to flip through the dividers to find the coupon I want.
There is a mesh pocket on the inside, great for coupon policies, larger coupons like Bed, Bath & Beyond coupons or even written grocery lists!
There is a pocket at the front of the box. I typically put my scissors and pen/pencil there. In the store, when I put items in my cart, I pull out the coupon from the dividers in the main are of the box and then put it in the front, so it makes it so much easier at checkout!!
There is enough room for a catalina coupon to lay straight in the box! NO MORE FOLDING! You can see all the information on the coupon, the date, all there terms and conditions of the coupon! You don't have to fumble around with flipping pages to find the coupon, then taking it out of the plastic sleeve to see all the terms and conditions!
There are 2 side pockets on either side, to hold business cards, credit card, keys, change, etc.
The above picture is taken in a Meijer cart! It fits perfectly and still has room on the seat for more grocery items! If you have a baby in a car seat in the main area of the cart, then you still have plenty of room for groceries around it and also on the main seat right next to the coupon box!
Below is a picture of the box in a Target cart, look at all that room around the coupon box!!!!
The choice of a colorful strap personalizes your coupon box and it also perfect to carry the box over your shoulder. The whole box is strong, sturdy and holds at least a binders worth of coupons.

As early as the 13th-century, governments licensed private sailors—"Privateers"— to seize vessels belonging to enemy nations, issuing letters of marque and reprisal to ship owners and captains.
Some American commentators have suggested reviving that idea in response to cyber-attacks, especially attacks backed by nation-states. A hack this spring that shut down the Colonial Pipeline—which transports 45 percent of all fuel consumed on the Eastern Coast of the United States—may encourage this approach.
The United States Constitution authorizes Congress to issue such letters. Article I, Section 8, Clause 11 grants it the power to "declare war, grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water."
"Outside of the law reviews and scholarly debates over the allocation of war powers, the Marque and Reprisal Clause has played little if any role in modern times," according to the Heritage Foundation, which notes that the United States has not issued such a letter since the War of 1812.
Two centuries later, military historians began reminding us that everything old is new again.
In 2012, Commander Jonathan L. Still wrote "Resurrecting Letters of Marque and Reprisal to Address Modern Threats," for the U.S. Army War College. While cyber threats were not exclusive to the "modern threats" Cmdr. Still addressed, he noted "growing recognition of the cyber domain as a new frontier in which conflict resembles earlier ages of warfare and in which corporate and intellectual piracy have considerable effects on national security and the U.S. economy." While questions might remain whether letters of marque can be fashioned to meet cyber-attacks, "the Congressional authority to issue Letters of Marque and Reprisal remains, having never been repealed."
In 2013, Major Christopher M. Kessinger wrote "Hitting the Cyber Marque: Issuing a Cyber letter of Marque to Combat Digital Threats." (The Army Lawyer, August 2013, reprinted at InsuranceNewsNet, November 6, 2013.) Maj. Kessinger suggested that "[a]pplying a letter of marque scheme to the cyber world would not only provide authority for American companies to defend themselves from cyber threats but allow them to take proactive measures to neutralize a cyber threat before it coalesces into danger."
Ensign Lucian Rombado, U.S. Navy, wrote a 2019 article for the U.S. Naval Institute Magazine answering critics of the Active Cyber Defense Certainty Act, which would authorize private companies to conduct cyber "hack backs." A former NSA deputy director called the idea an "epically stupid" one that might lead to uncontrollable escalation. Ensign Lombardo noted that private companies already are engaging in hack backs, and suggested that the Act would help legitimize and regulate such conduct. The alternative would be to leave "U.S. companies effectively defenseless against such attacks." The bill, introduced in June 2013, did not receive a vote.
On May 14, 2021, in the Wall Street Journal Thomas Ayres (recently retired as general counsel of the U.S. Air and Space Forces, and a retired U.S. Army major general) called for "A Maritime Solution for Cyber Privacy." Mr. Ayres noted that corporations lack the incentive to cooperate with authorities and timely report data breaches. "Historically," he noted, "such letters provided financial incentives to overcome fear and inaction in the face of dangerous outcomes and national need. On the high seas, they assured standing and rights in admiralty courts that awarded 'prize money' when pirate ships were sunk or captured."
DarkSide, the group that perpetrated the Colonial Pipeline hack, has ceased operations. On May 14, the same day Mr. Ayres published his commentary, Krebs on Security reported that DarkSide was disbanding "after its servers were seized and someone drained the cryptocurrency from an account the group uses to pay affiliates."
It now appears that the federal government, not a private entity, effected the seizure of DarkSide's Bitcoins. But Krebs reports that Darkside's shutdown may have resulted from disagreements among hackers over appropriate targets, suggesting that state-authorized private action may still have a place in the cyber wars.

The Bank of Ocean City stepped up last week, becoming the most recent "Champions of Education" with a generous $50,000 donation to the Worcester County Education Foundation. With BOC's donation, the WCEF is $50,000 closer to meeting its initial and lofty $1 million dollar goal. The Bank of Ocean City, a community based bank was anxious to join the WCEF's mission, which is to assure equal access to a World Class Education for every Worcester County student. As BOC President Reid Tingle puts it, "The Bank of Ocean City has supported the community in many ways. We pride ourselves in recognizing a good, sound investment. Education one of the greatest investments a community can make. By investing in great education, we're making an investment in our future. The kids we educate today are the future of this town. They'll be running this bank or leading our local government or teaching our grandchildren. We were also attracted to the Foundation's focus on providing equal access to an excellent education, for every child in Worcester County."
The WCEF was formed by a group of concerned parents and business leaders who believe that in order for Worcester County students to graduate fully prepared to function in the new digital college environment or to compete for the jobs of tomorrow, "we must provide the necessary learning tools, today". The 501( c )3 Foundation goals include soliciting private funds that can be used to offset budgetary gaps during lean economic times. In addition, funds will be used to accelerate the purchase and distribution of appropriate digital devices so that every student in Worcester County K-12 will have equal access to a World Class Education. Funding will also be used for financial assistance for students who are less fortunate and finally, teacher's grants will be available on an annual basis, for the purchase of innovative programs and teaching tools. The WCEF will also fund an endowment that will grow and become a perpetual funding source for future needs of Worcester County students and teachers.
The Worcester County Education Foundation is currently looking for opportunities to speak to businesses, corporations, private organizations, charitable organizations or any group wishing to learn more about how to become a Champion of Education, supporting Worcester County students and teachers.

The decision to purchase an engagement ring represents a turning point in many people's lives. We make the process as simple as possible. Let our knowledgeable and experienced sales team help you understand all aspects of selecting a diamond and a setting for your engagement ring.
As with most major purchases, it can be helpful to know your budget before you start shopping. We can help you focus your selection on diamonds and settings in your price range.
Diamond marketing groups typically suggest spending an amount equal to two months salary on a diamond. We suggest that you spend what you are comfortable with spending. We pride ourselves on giving customers much more than they expect for their money. If you have a specific price in mind, we can in many cases provide a much higher quality diamond for the same price as a diamond you would find at a competing store. We buy many of our diamonds direct and with the volume of diamonds that we sell, we pass the savings on to you.
Buy a diamond you will cherish and appreciate forever.
Rings and mountings can come in numerous metal types. The most common are white gold, yellow gold and platinum. Platinum rings are generally more expensive than white or yellow gold. This is largely because the cost of platinum is more than gold and the purity is higher. Wedding rings today are also available in steel, tungsten, titanium and other alternative metals.
Although you can purchase a diamond ring already mounted, we love to show customers loose diamonds and let them select the setting and diamonds separately, to create your own custom design. Our specialty is loose diamonds and we carry one of the largest selections of loose diamonds in the country. We have expert jewelers on-site so we can mount most diamonds and size your ring on the spot.
By seeing loose diamonds outside the mounting, you can examine the diamond more easily and see any inclusions or flaws in the diamond. These inclusions can sometimes be hidden by mountings or prongs. Buying a pre-mounted diamond can limit your ability to see what you are purchasing.
Also you will need to determine whether you want your engagement ring to be a solitaire ring (a single diamond in a mounting), a three stone ring, or a cluster of diamonds, typically with one large diamond and several smaller diamonds.
In addition to the engagement ring, many brides choose to have a wedding band. For those who choose to have a wedding band, it doesn't necessarily need to match the engagement ring.
Choosing the right stone is very important since the stone is often the centerpiece of the ring. By far the most common choice for an engagement ring stone is a diamond – although some people do select other stones such as rubies or sapphires.
Among diamonds, the round brilliant, or round, diamond is the number one choice for brides. Other possible, but less popular, shape choices are marquise, heart shaped, oval, princess, cushion, radiant, flanders, trillion, and European cut. See our diamond guide for more information about diamond shapes.
While you are shopping for engagement rings and diamonds, you may also want to consider a gent's wedding band, commonly worn by grooms. Gent's bands are available in 10 karat (10k), 14 karat (14k), 18 karat (18k), titanium, tungsten, or steel. Some people choose to mix titanium, tungsten or steel with gold or platinum for a unique look.
We hope your marriage, just like your diamond, will last forever.
Be sure to periodically examine your prongs and the general appearance of your ring, especially if you have hit it hard on something. If a prong is loose, bent or broken, you should bring it in to be checked immediately. You are always welcome to bring your ring into our store if it was purchased here as we do not charge for cleaning or checking over the integrity of your ring. This can help prevent the diamond from falling out and being lost.
Regardless of the condition of your ring, we suggest you return to our jewelry store every so often to have your diamond checked and cleaned by our professional staff.

EN — LARRY ROMANOFF — A COVID-19 Theory I Cannot Prove — March 14, 2022
A COVID-19 Theory I Cannot Prove
For background, the sudden appearance of this virus - at first apparently epidemic, then apparently pandemic, aroused my suspicions from the first day. Responding to those suspicions, I followed and documented all the developments from Day One.
First, I recorded the dates on which each country announced its first domestic (indigenous) infection, those not transferred by travel to or from China, not arising from external contact. These were local infections which had no connection to Chinese nor to foreign travel; thus, by definition, they originated inside the country. I recorded as well the specific locations within a country of these 'domestic' infections, in every case where that information was available. In particular, I searched for all cases with outbreaks in multiple locations, especially where these outbreaks were simultaneous.
I also recorded whether any of those nations were able to identify a patient zero: they were not. To my best knowledge, no country was able to identify a patient zero, and I found scant evidence that any country except for China had even attempted that search. Italy was one determined exception, but there were few of these. The US in particular ignored the prospect and refused to discuss it.
Finally, beginning on the first day, I recorded the new tally of daily infections and deaths by country for about the top 125 countries. I gathered the raw data from original sources where possible, relied on websites like Worldometers and others, and I recorded in Excel files those new infections and deaths every day for more than two years now.
That persistent long-term data collection provided what I would term "a reasonable feel" for what has been happening and for what is still happening today. In particular, I believe it is true that familiarity with those data and their daily changes permits one to see anomalies in the data and the events that would not be apparent to a casual observer. Also, recording and sorting those data by continent makes apparent some major trends that might not otherwise be obvious.
As one example the US media trashed China's low data points as 'lying Communist propaganda' and refused to discuss it since. But in fact, almost all of Asia had generally very low infection and death rates, and Africa was even much lower. The US, much of Western and Eastern Europe and some other selected countries, had infection rates as high as 30% and 40%. Asia, with some exceptions, was around 1% or 2%. Infection rates in Africa, with some exceptions, were mostly around 0.1%, 0.2%, 03% ... None of this information reached a Western audience. The US death toll is now at 1,000,000, while China hasn't had a death for two years, the total still at 4,600 (thanks in large part to TCM). No evidence the NYT or WSJ shared this news with Americans. European media were silent as well.
One comparison I like to make is that of Shanghai with Canada. This city – my home - of ≈25 or 30 million is only two hours from Wuhan and had no time to prepare, but reacted so quickly and thoroughly (with a plan that must have existed and been well-rehearsed), that the city had only a few hundred infections and only six or seven deaths. In less than two months, Shanghai was back to normal (with the exception of us wearing masks on the Metro). No masks, no mandatory vaccinations, no vaccine passports; everything was open and life has been normal for nearly two years. People in Shanghai generally love their government, and trust it, with good reason.
Canada, with a population a bit larger than that of Shanghai, 10,000 Kms. distance and with months to prepare, had nearly 3.5 million infections and nearly 40,000 deaths. After two years of bungling fascism by a child-Prime Minister and incompetent government, I'm told life is still a mess and that some useful percentage of the population are so fed up they would happily contemplate a popular revolution.
However, to the point at hand. The theory being examined here is that COVID-19 may have been deliberately released not only in China but in all countries, that the source of the pathogen was the US bio-weapons labs scattered around the world, and that the transmission mechanism was US military bases. The evidence for this theory is largely circumstantial, is admittedly spotty and some of the threads are quite thin. Nevertheless, these shortcomings do not of themselves negate the possibility so let's look at what we have. I would add here that Ron Unz has written a number of flawless articles on this topic; my only point of disagreement is that I don't see COVID-19 as a "China-only" enterprise that somehow escalated out of control. My personal conviction is that the entire world was the target from the outset.
The Causes for Suspicion
The Shut-Down of Fort Detrick
I needn't dwell on this here, but the facts of Fort Detrick, it's litany of pathogen leakages, and all the media and other reports of strange respiratory illnesses surrounding this biological hell, have never been properly addressed and thus many suspicions continue.
The Wuhan Military Games
Similarly, this aspect has been covered adequately in many places. I would add only that there are media and other reports of many athletes becoming quite or very ill immediately prior to and during the games in Wuhan. The respective militaries either express surprise or deny these claims and the governments profess no knowledge, while the athletes continue to give media interviews documenting their illnesses. They can't all be telling the truth; either the militaries or all the athletes are lying to hide something.
The Location and Timing of the Initial Outbreak
As you know, the virus first emerged in Wuhan virtually on the eve of Chinese New Year. Wuhan is one of China's major transportation hubs, and tens of millions would have been travelling from or through this city to every part of China. If the virus had been caught a week or two later, it would have spread uncontrollably throughout the entire country with potentially one billion infections that would have overwhelmingly crushed the nation's healthcare system, with a devastating effect on the economy, setting China back 20 years.
If I were a contagious pathogen wanting to do the maximum damage to China, I could not do better than to release myself in Wuhan on the eve of Chinese New Year. This is too much to be dismissed as a coincidence; in my view, this requires an intelligence.
The virus in China was Chinese-Specific
This fact has not received the attention it deserved. For months, I watched carefully every infection report from not only China but many other countries, and all initial infections everywhere were of ethnic Chinese. It was disturbing that the Western media seemed to be deliberately obscuring this fact. At one point the US media loudly reported the "first American infected in Wuhan", but this was an ethnic Chinese woman with an American passport. It was the same in many countries: "Australia reports the first local infection", but again this was an ethnic Chinese, who travelled from Wuhan. There were many of these; I tracked them all down and each was the same.
Inside China, there were no foreigners (Caucasians) infected during the first few months. Every infection I could identify was of an ethnic Chinese. The only quasi-exception was an American man in Wuhan who claimed he had been infected but cured himself with some Vitamin C tablets and a bottle of scotch. The first documented exception was where some Chinese attending a business meeting in Germany (in March, I believe) apparently infected several Germans. After that, infections became widespread.
The media treatment was a special concern because I recalled the same had occurred during SARS - which was 99.5% Chinese-specific. The US media tried especially hard to obscure this, claiming in one instance, "40 Canadians infected with SARS". I tracked those down and it seemed that about 37 of them were ethnic Chinese who had returned from Hong Kong and the remainder were ethnic Chinese healthcare workers in Canada who became infected by them.
The Chinese Version was Deadly
This fact also received no media attention and few are aware of it even today. The initial death rate in China from COVID-19 was around 15%. It was only the exceptional actions by the Chinese medical authorities, and the widespread application of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that brought this down to about 5% - still one of the highest in the entire world. Most of North America, Europe, Asia and Africa are around 1%. China was definitely whacked with something serious, and I would suggest it was designed that way.
Infections in Iran
The second country to be hit was Iran in the middle of February and, as Ron Unz has pointed out many times in his podcasts and articles, not simply Iran but the holy city of Qom. And not only Qom but specifically the Iranian legislature where a high percentage were infected and more than a few died. This was confirmed as a totally different strain from that in China, and possibly Iranian-specific. That means the virus did not travel from China to Iran, but was delivered from another source. You can speculate as to the source and delivery method. It seems Providence can be so accommodating sometimes. The two countries the US wanted most to destroy were the two infected first, and both with a rather deadly concoction.
The Distribution Pattern
A curiosity that caught my eye was that after leaving China and hitting Iran, the virus apparently attacked the entire rest of the world in two swoops. I cannot understand why no one has addressed this, because it is begging for explanation. In the first case, 25 countries reported their first "domestic" infection within a few days centered on January 25, 2020. If we allow for time zones and the International Dateline, these were all reported on essentially the same day. Then, in early March (in one essay I stated late February; that was incorrect), another 85 countries reported their first domestic infection, many on the same day or within a few days. You can check this yourself here: (1)
How can this be? Travel cannot account for this and, in the absence of travel, a local Chinese population is irrelevant to transmission. Further, a natural virus hasn't the ability to infect 85 countries on all continents more or less simultaneously. Moreover, those 85 countries were not all infected with the same variety of the virus and, even more curiously, many of those countries reported multiple simultaneous outbreaks. Equally curious, these 85 countries reported their discovery almost on the same day. It seems to me such a thing could happen only if it were organised and following a script. I leave it to you to identify the organiser. But again, this cries out for explanation.
Experts on biological weapons are in unanimous agreement that eruptions in a human population of a new and unusual pathogen in multiple locations simultaneously, with no clear idea of source and cases with no proven links, is virtually prima facie evidence of a pathogen deliberately released, since natural outbreaks can almost always be resolved to one location and one patient zero. But with COVID-19, not one country out of 200 has been able to do this. And, if multiple simultaneous locations in one country (with no identifiable source) constitute proof of a deliberate biological attack, then surely simultaneous outbreaks in 85 countries (with no identifiable source) would be the same.
Another Look at "Waves"
Next, the regular 'waves'. I have attracted some disagreement on this, but I see no flaws in the reasoning so I will repeat: There is almost no evidence of any past epidemic or pandemic ever occurring in multiple successive waves. Some refer to the 1918 pandemic, and the CDC claims it manifested in 'three waves', but that one was an anomaly, the spread of which was greatly affected by troop movements and other factors and doesn't qualify as a natural occurrence. It is also possible, and perhaps even very likely, that this was a result of Rockefeller's meningitis vaccination gone awry, (2) and even Fauci has acknowledged that the deaths were caused by a bacterial infection as evidenced by the thousands of autopsies. I think this one is a non-starter as evidence of 'waves'.
Besides this, after much searching, the only evidence I could find of multiples successive 'waves' in any epidemic were two references to a swine flu that exhibited a 'resurgence' after five or six months. There wasn't much detail, and I couldn't locate reliable daily infection statistics, so no conclusion is possible. But aside from these examples, I was able to find no credible evidence of multiple waves during any past epidemic. Perhaps I have missed something important and, if so, perhaps a reader could point me to a credible source of hard data (not speculation or opinion). The point of course, is that COVID-19 stubbornly manifested itself in five or six 'waves' in almost every nation, apparently an historical first. This also begs explanation, but the so-called authorities refuse to address it. This is stunning; an apparent once-in-a-lifetime medical occurrence, yet no medic and no media outlet will touch it.
On this note, it bothered me greatly that the Western media were already promoting the prospect of "a second wave" when the first had barely appeared. Again, I could find nothing in the history of epidemics to arouse such an expectation and, if it had never occurred before, why would all the media - unanimously - be suddenly preparing our expectations for a second, third, and even a fourth wave? If my reasoning is correct, this could have come only from prior knowledge of intent. There is no other possibility, and we do have some hard evidence that at least a few of these "waves" were not accidental.
Waves and Strains
I had long suspected but couldn't find proof, that subsequent "waves" were not of the same virus strain, that each new wave in each country was a different version of the virus. I now have some proof from two countries who claim that at least two successive waves were not of the same kind, sufficient to theorise that in the various countries each successive "wave" may have consisted not of the same strain or a 'variant' with a minor or trivial mutation, but a new release of a different strain altogether. If this can be confirmed, there will be no longer any question that all these different "waves" were deliberately seeded. No other explanation would be possible because different strains could not create themselves from nothing. They would have to be extraneous and superinduced.
Normal Infection Patterns
According to all of science, and confirmed strongly by the US CDC, (3) an outbreak of a pathogen begins from a single central source, slowly gains some traction, then expands rapidly, reaches a peak, then slowly tails off and dies, essentially following a skewed Bell curve as in the diagram. Worthy of particular note is that when the epidemic dies out, it dies out. It does not have repeated resurrections, nor successive reincarnations in a different form (strain).
From historical evidence it seems impossible that subsequent "waves" would continue to reincarnate by some natural process. When it's dead, it's dead. Except for COVID-19, apparently. Think about that. This fact, coupled with the prospect of each successive wave being of a different strain, is the source of my conviction that each wave was deliberately seeded after the preceding wave had died out or was dying out.
Worthy of special attention is the fact that an epidemic infection of a new pathogen cannot go from zero to 100,000 infections on the same day. It is 'infectious', which means it must spread from person to person, infecting each, and thus needs time to become established and infect a core group before it can rapidly expand. No virus or bacteria can infect zillions at the same moment. Infections cannot, in nature, go straight up like a rocket. Similarly, after the peak, a pathogen infection needs time to unwind; infection rates cannot drop like a stone; they need to tail off. For the water to stop suddenly, someone has to turn off the tap. This is important, as you will see.
The Trouble With China
(a) China's 6 Bio-attacks
It hasn't been reported in the West, but China suffered a total of 6 biological attacks within two years, the swine flu and COVID-19 being only two. (4) There were various concentrated outbreaks of bird flu, some of very deadly pathogens, and none of which had a clear natural source. The question is, why China? The media propaganda narrative suggests China lacks sanitary cohesion, but the truth is that most countries in Asia are well below China in sanitation, India being perhaps the worst example. Logic encourages us to ask why India doesn't have dozens of pathogen outbreaks, and why all these epidemics occurred only in China. And of course, logic also induces us to ask who has 400 biological weapons labs surrounding China and Russia.
(b) China's Swine Flu epidemic
In 2019 and 2020, coincident with COVID-19, China was hit with a nation-wide wave of deadly swine flu, necessitating the culling of several hundred million pigs – China's main meat source. The pathogen was distributed with small drones flying over countless thousands of farms while spraying something. (5) All of the Western media flooded their pages with claims that 'pork speculators' were responsible for this. Let's ignore facts for the moment and try to apply some logic.
First, laboratories in many countries research such pathogens, but the amounts necessary for research typically are a cupful. The volume of pathogen necessary to infect and\or kill 300 million pigs would be at least tens of thousands of liters. Where would our 'pork speculators' obtain such a huge volume of a deadly pathogen? The nearest 7-11? Wal-Mart? The only source of any pathogen in that volume would be a military bio-weapons lab where it was created for use. There is no evidence that China has any such labs but for the moment let's assume they do have. How would the pork speculators gain access to it? What do you suppose would happen if you and I went to such a military installation and said, "Good morning. We would like to buy 5,000 liters of anthrax, please." Exactly. And if the Chinese did have such a facility, they would be unlikely to supply people wanting to kill their own country's meat supply.
Perhaps more to the point, in any country, WHO would have access to these facilities and the pathogens contained therein? Only agencies of that government. Nobody else. Logic permits us to dismiss the possibility of the pathogen arising from a Chinese facility, so what would be the source? We don't have a smoking gun, but China and Russia are surrounded by 400 American military bio-weapons labs. There is no other likely source, and no other country with a likely motive or with ample experience in this area, which means the swine flu epidemic in China was either quite or very possibly a US biological weapons attack. And the media flood of 'pork speculators' was propaganda meant to pre-empt rational thought on the part of readers.
(c) Beijing's "Second Wave"
By late May of 2020, Beijing had been virus-free for nearly 60 days, then a sudden new outbreak in the Xinfadi market. (6) The Western media immediately hit us with a small flood of propaganda that Beijing was experiencing its "second wave", telling us that this latest outbreak "showed how the virus can still come back as restrictions are eased". But the media went silent rather quickly with an announcement of "a groundbreaking virus tracing discovery", which was that the strain of the new virus in Beijing was the same as that in much of Europe, that this variety had never before been detected in China and was clearly an import. Dr. Daniel Lucey confirmed a Reuters report on the genetic sequencing that "the virus is from a different continent", and thus was clearly imported. (7) It was also much more contagious – and more deadly – than previous varieties.
Xinfadi is the largest fresh-food market in all of Asia, equivalent to nearly 160 football fields, with many thousands of shops. The entire market was "severely contaminated" "from head to foot" while nothing in the surrounding area was touched. It was obvious the contamination entered the market – and only the market – from a source external to China. This was an entirely new version of the virus (Type A) that had not been in China before, a much more virulent strain (at least to ethnic Chinese) and one which, had it escaped confinement, would have created a humanitarian disaster of enormous proportion. Fortunately, the authorities had not relaxed their vigilance and discovered the infections almost immediately, shutting down the market, locking down the neighborhood, tracing all the contacts, and killing it dead within two weeks with only a handful of infections.
How could a new variety of a virus travel from another continent to Beijing without leaving infections along the way? And this new virus was traveling with friends if it could infect 160 football fields in a couple of days. What would be the source of such an enormous amount of pathogen released in one place at one time? And why would it cross half of China, choosing to land on and infect only that one location in Beijing, the largest market in all of Asia with hundreds of thousands of visitors each day, while sparing every other possible victim, even avoiding shops literally across the street? That would almost require an intelligence. And a large pail. To forestall such conclusions, the Western media placed a news embargo on this topic immediately upon the facts being released. (8)
In this context, recall the information about a natural epidemic starting small, gaining traction while infecting a core group, then expanding. But the Xinfadi market started with totally infecting 160 football fields of shop space. This isn't done by a "patient zero", but rather by a large group carrying perhaps 1,000 liters of pathogen. How can it be otherwise?
(d) Under Attack Again
China has been virus-free for a long time, with all segments of life being normal as before, but there have been persistent attempts at outbreaks in various provinces, all of which the Chinese medical authorities have quickly quashed. All those (minor) cases were 'local' domestic infections that seemingly appeared from nowhere, with no clear source, and no patient zero was ever located. But this has now taken a more determined aspect in that China has suddenly been hit with infections in half its provinces. In its largest infection outbreak in two years, China reported nearly 3,400 new "locally transmitted" cases on one day, simultaneously in 19 regions, this huge spike described as "complicated and severe". (9) Again, no clear epidemiology, no identifiable source(s), and no patients zero. (10) If you look at the graphic, China went from around zero to this in literally a week. Note the vertical spike, something natural virus outbreaks can't do.
The Chinese authorities are not dunces; if it is obvious to me that China is under attack, it is much more obvious to them. My solution would be to empty the US Embassy in Beijing of its 1,200 staff, 1,190 of whom might well be CIA operatives carrying pails.
(e) Welcome to Hong Kong
The city was at the end of its virus epidemic with only small numbers of new infections, then - and coincident with the sudden increases in the Mainland - Hong Kong was blasted with an enormous epidemic, suddenly and inexplicably reaching nearly 60,000 cases in one day, more than in all of the US and with only 2% of America's population. (11) (12) (13) Hong Kong has open borders, making infiltration rather easy, and again no identification of the source of this massive infection spike and obviously no hope of finding a "patient zero". You will recall my observation that every new infection sequence begins small, needing time to infect a core group, and that a new infection cannot "go straight up like a rocket". Look at the chart for HK. It would seem the American war on Hong Kong is not yet complete.
One Good Result of Russia/Ukraine
I watched Russia very closely, day by day, from early in 2020. For about two months, infections were stable at only a few hundred per day. Russia had implemented many containment measures and it began to appear that the virus would be a non-event. Then suddenly an explosion in April with new infections quickly rising to more than 10,000 per day, and occurring simultaneously in almost every area of the country. The infections subsided and it appeared the tail was nearing, then suddenly another explosive jump to nearly 30,000, again simultaneously in all regions. Once again, infections tapered off and it appeared the end was near, then suddenly a vertical explosion from about 15,000 to more than 200,000 new infections per day. At the risk of repeating myself, natural virus outbreaks cannot rise vertically like a rocket. There is no natural infection that manifests in this manner without human assistance.
But then something strange occurred. Just as the White House was propagating tales of an imminent Russian "invasion" of Ukraine, the new infections began to fall significantly. And on the day that Russian troops did enter Ukraine, new infections fell like a stone, by nearly 70% in one day. And, at the risk of repeating myself, natural virus outbreaks cannot fall like a stone. My guess, and I am only guessing, is that when the Russian military actually entered Ukraine, the Americans discovered they had more important things to worry about than spreading a virus. Among these would be destroying the evidence in all their bio-weapons labs in that country.
A Look at Italy
The theory, which I cannot prove, is that the US military bio-weapons labs have been the source of the COVID pathogen and US military bases have been the method of distribution of COVID-19 around the world, given that there are between 800 and 1,000 of them, in almost every country. The example of Russia above might provide some circumstantial evidence of this, since the long border between the two countries is quite porous, making for easy transit. And Ukraine does after all have those bio-weapons labs in proximity.
It should be noted that in every instance where the US establishes bio-labs or bases, a mandatory part of the agreement is that American personnel are not subject to domestic law. This is true also for diplomatic personnel but these latter are at least subject to challenge, to interrogation, and to deportation. US military personnel (including embedded CIA) are not even subject to challenge. Moreover, when entering a country, they do not pass through customs and immigration but instead land at military bases not even subject to air traffic control. The freedom is unlimited and the cover is perfect.
Italy is another curiosity. If we look at the two maps of Italy displaying the US military bases and the areas of the country with the heaviest virus outbreaks, they match very well indeed. South Korea is similar. I do not have sufficient information on the locations of virus outbreaks and US military bases for other countries, but I have a strong suspicion they would also coincide nicely.
And Now, The End
New virus infections appear to be falling in many countries - but by no means in all of them. Yet, in what appears to be a sudden and violent change of direction, nearly every country seems to be abandoning concern for this "deadly virus" and cancelling all preventive protocols.
Austria, where only a week ago police were randomly inspecting citizens for vaccination passports and arresting or fining them, now suddenly abandons them. The UK is similarly abandoning all restrictions. Canada is doing the same on a national level and each Canadian province is doing likewise; provinces planning to fine unvaccinated citizens have suddenly changed their minds. In countries around the world, but most especially the Western nations, vaccinations are no longer compulsory, vaccine passports are passé, masks are now optional, schools, restaurants and holocaust museums will be open again, and life is quickly returning to normal.
Suddenly, we are stopping everything, as if on command, and with no apparent respect for future waves seven, eight, and nine. This is distressing since I am unaware of any evidence that COVID-19 is programmed to self-destruct after only six waves.
I have not proven the thesis proposed at the beginning of this article. We have only circumstantial evidence, conjecture and hypothesis. The facts presented are still facts, and they definitely justify suspicion, but they are not of themselves proof of the US functioning once again as the Bankers' Private Army in what would be a massive conspiracy orchestrated by the European Khazarian mafia. Nevertheless, my comments may provide food for thought and perhaps provoke other minds to contribute to the process. The object of course is to uncover and document the whole truth, whatever that might be.

Spokane police, firefighters, dispatchers and ambulance drivers will undergo training to better identify and respond to people experiencing "excited delirium," the condition that investigators theorize Otto Zehm was suffering from during his fatal encounter with police last year.
Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick also announced Monday new limits on Taser use when subduing suspects as well as the use of hoods to prevent suspects from spitting on officers and emergency personnel.
Kirkpatrick defended the Taser as a valuable tool but said officers will be allowed to apply a Taser only "two or three times" if the suspect does not react to it.
Kirkpatrick, Mayor Dennis Hession and Fire Chief Bobby Williams announced the protocols and joint training at a Monday news conference at Spokane City Hall.
Excited delirium, however, remains controversial.
The mainstream medical community has yet to recognize it as a scientifically accepted diagnosis. In fact, it can be found nowhere in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which is known as the bible of mental illnesses, said attorney Breean Beggs, of the Center for Justice.
"In that they list every traditionally recognized mental illness, and they have no definition for 'excited delirium,' " said Beggs, who is helping represent Zehm's family.
Zehm, a mentally ill janitor, was mistaken last March for a robber. He was beaten and received several Taser jolts in a confrontation with Spokane police at a convenience store. He stopped breathing after being hogtied and placed on his stomach for more than 15 minutes.
A plastic "non-rebreather" mask, not attached to oxygen, may have limited Zehm's ability to breathe but was ruled by the Spokane County medical examiner not to have caused his death.
Videos of the confrontation clearly show that Zehm became agitated after he was confronted by Officer Karl Thompson for a crime Zehm didn't commit, Beggs said.
"It did not appear that (Zehm) was in an agitated state prior to the police officer hitting him with the baton," Beggs said. "But if he was in an agitated state, the worst thing you could do is hogtie him and leave him in the prone position." Williams estimated that emergency officials respond to just three to four excited delirium cases each year.
Excited delirium is characterized by paranoia, confusion and agitation. Authorities who support such diagnoses say sufferers can exhibit sweating, great strength, shouting, resistance to pain and violent resistance. It can result in death.
Kirkpatrick said it can be difficult to distinguish between someone suffering from excited delirium and someone who is on drugs, has a mental health condition or is simply violent. She said officers are trained to respond to behavior. As an example of how behavior can be misleading, Kirkpatrick described a situation in which she once arrested a man for drunken driving. It was later discovered he was having a stroke.
The excited delirium training and protocol changes are a result of the Zehm case.
Beggs applauded the city for increasing officers' training in dealing with mentally ill residents.
Kirkpatrick said hoods, rather than masks, will be used to prevent spitting.
Training to recognize and respond to excited delirium will start Friday. It is expected to take two months for all police and fire personnel to complete the training.
Kirkpatrick said she's unaware of any other city teaching its officers about the condition.
Some Spokane County Sheriff's Office personnel also will observe the training.
"We want one protocol for us to all respond in one way to our community that suffers from mental illness," Kirkpatrick said.

A GOOD AMERICAN is more than just a film. We need to get rid of this mass surveillance nonsense.
Mass surveillance is not only violating everybody's privacy - it also aids terrorists to reach their goal, because while filling the pockets of government surveillance contractors, it makes intelligence analysts dysfunctional by flooding them with useless information. Analysts have been complaining about this for years. We have their testimony from the Snowden documents. You find a detailed analysis of that in our follow-up documentary THE MAZE, a film we made in response to the series of terror attacks since Paris 2015.
A GOOD AMERICAN not only tells the amazing account of the best code-breaker America ever had - it also tells the chilling story of ThinThread, a program that managed to find a solution against being flooded by useless information through filtering out UPFRONT the 99% useless data and focusing in UPFRONT on the 1% that were real threats, providing warning in milliseconds as threat-scenarios were building up.
Now here is some good news: a sort of ThinThread 2.0 is ready to go - built in Europe by a small big-data start-up. You find the intriguing story about it in THE MAZE. A working alternative to mass surveillance is on the table again, including a solution to really protect our fundamental right to privacy.
However, as we are writing this, a battle is still going on in our parliaments and institutions to expand mass surveillance - in US Congress, in several European Parliaments, but also in the largest democracy on earth, India. The battle is on between those who knowingly fail to provide security while stealing our privacy for the sake of power and money, and those who try as hard as they can to provide the best security while protecting our right to privacy and our fundamental freedoms.
If we want it or not, everybody is choosing sides in this battle.
Including you.
Help us get the story out!
The story of ThinThread is a story everybody should know about. A GOOD AMERICAN is the first film to fully tell it.
Please support our efforts and help us get the word out as widely as possible!
Help us get the truth out!
A GOOD AMERICAN is an incredible story, yet it is a true story. The truth is encapsulated in this report:
Report 05-INTEL-03 - December 15, 2004 - Audit Report
by the Office of the Inspector General of the US Department of Defense. You can find a redacted copy of the report on Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Redacted-dod-oi...). The redactions were applied to entire paragraphs that were marked as "unclassified". This is a report that the public has a right to know about. It is the detailed report about ThinThread and how NSA management under Director Gen. Michael Hayden killed it.
However, in Spring 2017 Patrick Eddington - one of the very few persons to ever have read the entire report, during his time as Senior National Security staffer in the House of Representatives - won a law-suit against the US gov over the declassification of that report. He has already obtained first batches from the NSA that are less redacted. But there is still a long way to go to obtain everything as ordered by the court. Wanna help him speed that up?
Inside the US:
Please sign this petition to the Intelligence Committees in US Congress
https://rightsanddissent.salsalabs.org/agoodamerican/index.html
for an official investigation into the ThinThread case.
The petition is hosted by a member of a cross-party Civil Liberties Coalition we are working with in Washington DC, backing the cross-party anti-surveillance Caucus in Congress (http://www.fourthadvisory.org/caucus-members) on a grassroots level.
Please inform your local privacy advocacy and data protection group, your internet service provider, your Amnesty International group and your Reporters Without Borders chapter about ThinThread, A GOOD AMERICAN and THE MAZE. They know how to bring the information to the knowledge of lawmakers and how to run campaigns.
Help us make more films like this!
Making political documentaries takes a lot of time and efforts and after a film is done, the advocacy work begins.
We have been working with law-makers, journalists and influencers to make them aware that there is an alternative to mass surveillance since September 2014, when the film was still in the making.
We rented theaters to hold screenings, we lobbied, we went on panels and we even managed to get official screenings at the EU Parliament and in the UK House of Lords. But all of this advocacy work costs a lot of time and money.
And then there are so much more films to make and eye-opening and inspiring stories to tell!
Please support our future work!

If you have slipped and fallen in an accident that was not your fault and have been injured as a result, you may want to pursue legal recourse for compensation.
Slip and fall accidents occur in all sorts of places, but most commonly occur in public spaces such as shopping centres, retail outlets and offices and apartment buildings. The owners and managers of such spaces have a duty of care to the public to ensure that the area is safe, secure and cleaned and maintained on a regular basis. The majority of slip and fall claims are the result of sloppy cleaning regimes. The road to compensation for your claim is long and arduous, and will require that you prove your claim is valid and that you did not cause the accident yourself (perhaps you slipped because you were looking at your smartphone and walked into a shelf and fell). In order to prove your claim you may require the advice of a lawyer to help you figure out if your claim has merit and will successfully be compensated.
Slipping and falling on food or fluids on the ground or walls.
Walking through a shop that has slippery floors.
Tripping over cables or ropes or misplaced objects.
Tripping and falling as a result of bad lighting.
Falling down stairs because of broken steps or lack of handrails.
Accidents involving faulty playground equipment.
Coming into contact with exposed electric cables.
The building manager failed to identify a potential hazard (a pothole or crack in the path) and remedy it or, in the interim, demarcate it to be avoided by the public.
The building manager, or an employee of his business, directly caused the hazardous condition to arise, e.g. spilled cleaning liquid on the floor, into which you slipped.
Sometimes figuring out who to claim against can be complicated. For example if you slipped and fell at function that was being held a party venue, the accident could have been the fault of: a bartender dropping a drink, a guest dropping a drink, failure to clean up the mess in a timely manner, the owner of the building, the building manager, a waitress dropping food… This is one of the reasons why consulting a lawyer is useful, as he can help you determine who to sue.
Aside from negligence on the part of the business owner, you will also have to show that you were not negligent and could not reasonably have prevented the accident yourself, i.e. were you distracted and talking on your phone at the time of the accident?
Was the accident the result of poor lighting?
Could the danger of the accident have been reduced or prevented in any way?
Was the accident the result of failure to maintain and clean the space?
Did the hazard exist for long enough that it could have been discovered within a reasonable amount of time to have been removed before the accident took place? E.g. many shopping centres check for and clean spillages every 30 minutes.
You will also have to show how complicit you were in your own accident, determining whether your behaviour or state in the time leading up to the accident in some way contributed to or caused it. The relative degree of your responsibility in preventing your own accident, will affect how much you are compensated by, or if your claim is successful.
If you have been involved in a slip and fall accident and were injured you can claim compensation for past and future medical costs, loss of earnings, loss of support (in case of death), and material damages. Most slip and fall claims are settled out of court, without attending a hearing.
Note that there is a time limit on seeking compensation for a slip and fall accident, so you should pursue your case as soon as you can.

Audio-video decision support for patients: the documentary genré as... - PubMed - NCBI
Health Expect. 2013 Sep;16(3):e80-8. doi: 10.1111/j.1369-7625.2011.00727.x. Epub 2011 Oct 28.
Audio-video decision support for patients: the documentary genré as a basis for decision aids.
Volandes AE1, Barry MJ, Wood F, Elwyn G.
Decision support tools are increasingly using audio-visual materials. However, disagreement exists about the use of audio-visual materials as they may be subjective and biased.
This is a literature review of the major texts for documentary film studies to extrapolate issues of objectivity and bias from film to decision support tools.
The key features of documentary films are that they attempt to portray real events and that the attempted reality is always filtered through the lens of the filmmaker. The same key features can be said of decision support tools that use audio-visual materials. Three concerns arising from documentary film studies as they apply to the use of audio-visual materials in decision support tools include whose perspective matters (stakeholder bias), how to choose among audio-visual materials (selection bias) and how to ensure objectivity (editorial bias).
Decision science needs to start a debate about how audio-visual materials are to be used in decision support tools. Simply because audio-visual materials may be subjective and open to bias does not mean that we should not use them.
Methods need to be found to ensure consensus around balance and editorial control, such that audio-visual materials can be used.
