David Ji
David Longfen Ji is an American businessman who co-founded Apex Digital, an electronics manufacturer.
In 2004, he was arrested in China following a dispute with Sichuan Changhong Electric, a supplier owned by the city of Mianyang and the province of Sichuan.
Changhong accused him of defrauding them through bad checks.
Ji was taken, according to an account by his lawyer, to the senior management and told, "I decide whether you live or die."
He has been held in China without charges.
Ji's case highlighted an "implicit racism" in dealings with American businessmen.
As a U.S. citizen he was not granted the same treatment by authorities as non-ethnically Chinese businessmen sharing the same nationality.
Diederik of Heinsberg, Count of Loon
Diederik of Heinsberg
( French:" Thierry", German:" Dietrich", English:" Theodoric")( died between 17 and 21 January 1361), Count of Loon( French:" Looz") and Count of Chiny( 1336- 1361), was the son of Godfrey II, Lord of Heinsberg( son of Diederik, Lord of Heinsberg, and Joanna of Leuven), and Matilda( daughter of Arnold V, Count of Loon and Chiny, and Marguerite Vianden).
In 1336, Diederik's uncle Louis IV, Count of Loon and Chiny, died without having had children, and a succession crises emerged.
An agreement of 1190 stipulated that if the House of Loon were extinguished, the county would then be integrated with the Principality of Liège.
The reaction of the Chapter of Saint- Lambert was immediate.
The Prince- Bishop of Liège Adolph of La Marck moved to incorporate the County of Loon into the principality, while Diederik maneuvered to assume the title of count.
However, since Diederik had married Adolph ’s sister and the bishop was fond of their son, family relations won out.
Until his death in 1344, the prelate used all of his influence to ensure that the county remained in possession of his brother- in- law.
But the death of the bishop did not terminate possession the Counties of Loon and Chiny by the Heinsbergs, because Adolph ’s nephew Engelbert III succeeded him as Prince- Bishop of Liège.
Engelbert removed the threat of excommunication pronounced against Diederik and allowed him to remain at the head of the counties until his death.
In 1336, Diederik married Kunigunde of the Mark,( d. 1343), daughter of Engelbert I, Count of the Mark, and Kunigonde of Blieskastel, sister of Adolph of the Marck and Eberhard II, Count of the Mark( also his uncle through marriage to Matilda ’s sister Marie).
Diederik and Kunigunde had one son: Upon his death in 1361, Diederik ’s nephew and heir, Godfrey of Heinsberg, Lord of Daelenbroeck, claimed the counties of Loon and Chiny, while the Prince- Bishopric of Liège claimed it as fief of the church.

Otto, Count of Looz
Otto is a purported Count of Loon and father of Count Giselbert, who would have been adult roughly around the years 980-1000.
He appears in only one much later( probably 14th century) document that is considered unreliable, so his existence is doubted.
The list of the counts of Loon is normally started with Giselbert.
Since Leon Vanderkindere's seminal publications at the beginning of the twentieth century, scholars have tended to ignore the medieval report of Otto and accept Vanderkindere's proposal that Giselbert's father was Rudolf, the son of Count Nevelung.
More recently, proposals have been made that Otto might have existed and been a son or nephew of Rudolf.
None of these proposals have led to any consensus and can only be taken as speculative proposals.
Jan Baerten, who is still seen as an authority for this subject, doubted the existence of Otto at all.
The only record of Otto, the third continuation of the chronicle or" Gesta" of the abbey of St Truiden tells of the installation of Baldrick II as Prince- Bishop of Liege, and that he was the brother of Count Giselbert of Loon, and the son of Count Otto of Loon and Liutgard of Namur.
It says Liutgarde's mother Ermengarde was a countess of Namur, without naming how she became countess( presumably by marrying one of the Counts of Namur), and a daughter of a Duke Otto.
It also claims she was an ancestor to Godfrey of Bouillion.
Criticism of this source, written long after the facts, centres around the more detailed information it gives about Liutgard.
In summary, with great uncertainty, the" Gestorum Abbatem Trudonensium Continuatio Tertia" tells us that Otto married Lutgarde, who was from Namur, and had two sons.
Their brother Arnulf is known from other records:
